Operator

Good day, everyone. My name is Elizabeth, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome you to the Standard Nuclear Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Call. All lines have been placed on mute to prevent background noise. Today's call is being recorded. After the speakers' remarks, there will be a question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please use the raise hand icon at the bottom of your webinar application. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Chris Koscielniak, Head of Investor Relations.

Chris Koscielniak — Head of Investor Relations

Thank you, operator, and good morning, everyone. Welcome to Standard Nuclear's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Call, our first as a public company. On July 16, our common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker STDN. We are pleased to welcome our new shareholders and everyone joining us today. Yesterday, we issued our earnings press release reporting results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and this morning we filed our quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC. The press release is available in the investor relations section of our website, and an investor presentation will be posted there following this call. Before we begin, please note that our remarks today will include forward-looking statements and are based on assumptions as of today and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially. Please refer to the risk factors described in our Form 10-Q and our SEC filings. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements except as required by law. During this call, we will refer to certain operating metrics, including funded backlog, total contract backlog, and qualified pipeline. Definitions of these metrics and important limitations on their use are included in yesterday's press release. With me today are Kurt Terrani, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin Harrill, our Chief Financial Officer. Kurt will open with an overview of the quarter's results and an update on our strategy, followed by Kevin, who will take you through the financial results, and then Kurt will close before we open the line for questions. With that, I'll turn the call over to Kurt.
