Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining Twin Vee Powercats Quarterly Investor Call. Today we'll outline how we're navigating current conditions with a clear focus on sales, dealer expansion and customer engagement. As we know, high interest rates, inflation and cautionary consumer spending have slowed new boat sales across the sector. Pressure on new unit demand and higher-than-normal inventory levels across the industry are still a challenge. As a builder of premium Twin Vee and Bahama boats, these headwinds create a complex environment for manufacturers and dealers alike. At Twin Vee, we're addressing these challenges head on by controlling what we can, our costs, our inventory, our relationships with dealers and customers. Our primary focus is driving sales and rebuilding our backlog. We're channeling all resources into sales, marketing and strengthening customer demand. In Q2 and Q3, we added 10 new dealer locations, expanding our reach into regions like the Southeastern Seaboard, the Gulf Coast and a brand-new stocking dealer in Australia. We're working closely with all dealers offering hands-on support through personalized customer consultation, demo events and any guidance required to shorten the sales cycle for customers. Operationally, we've made strategic moves to improve efficiencies. Our Fort Pierce headquarter expansion is complete. This gives us the capacity to produce new models, expand our production and integrate additional brands. We have also completed the installation of our 46-foot 5-axis CNC router, which allows us to handle precision in-house tooling. This reduces our reliance on external vendors, cuts lead times and lower costs on product development. These upgrades are now operational, enabling us to respond to demand without significant further capital investment. On the product front, we're seeing steady progress with our 22-foot BayCat, which continues to resonate with customers for its versatility and value. Production remains efficient with manufacturing…

Thanks, Joseph. Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Scott Searles, I'm the Interim CFO for Twin Vee. This is my first earnings call with Twin Vee, and I want to begin by thanking all the shareholders, employees and dealer partnerships for their warm welcome and for your continued support. It's been great getting to know the business, and I'm excited to be part of Twin Vee's story moving forward. As Joseph mentioned earlier, the boating industry continues to face a challenging environment. High interest rates, inflation and cautious consumer spending has slowed new boat sales across the sector. Inventory levels across the industry remain elevated, creating a complex environment, both for manufacturers and dealers. At Twin Vee, we're tackling these headwinds head on by focusing on what we can control, our costs, our inventory and our dealer relationships. Our approach is simple, stay lean, stay disciplined and keep supporting our dealers to rebuild momentum. For the third quarter, net sales were $3.43 million, up 18% year-over-year from $2.9 million last year. Gross results showed a small gross loss of about $45,000, a meaningful improvement over last year's $146,000 loss reflected better production efficiency and cost control. Selling and general and administration expenses were down roughly 16% from the prior year. Our net loss for the quarter was $2.76 million, an improvement from last year's $3 million loss and consistent with our expectations given the industry backdrop. For the first 9 months of 2025, we generated $11.8 million in sales with a gross margin of 9.6%, up significantly from 2.7% a year ago. These results demonstrate the early benefits of our operational discipline and focus on aligning production with dealer demand. Turning to the balance sheet. We ended the quarter with $2.7 million in cash and equivalents and continue to maintain…
