Thank you, operator. We first want to remind you that the earnings release and quarterly slides are available on our website at www.altisource.com. These provide additional information investors may find useful. Our remarks today include forward-looking statements, which involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ. Please review the forward- looking statements section in the company's earnings release and quarterly slides as well as the risk factors contained in our 2024 Form 10-K and our 2025 Form 10-Q filings. These describe some factors that may lead to different results. We undertake no obligation to update statements, financial scenarios and projections previously provided or provided herein as a result of a change in circumstances, new information or future events. During this call, we will present both GAAP and non- GAAP financial measures. In our earnings release and quarterly slides, you will find additional disclosures regarding the non-GAAP measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is included in the appendix to the quarterly slides. Joining me for today's call is Bill Shepro, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. I will now turn the call over to Bill.

Thanks, Michelle, and good morning. I'll begin on Slide 4. We are pleased with our second quarter performance. In a close to historically low delinquency environment, we grew service revenue, adjusted EBITDA, pre and post-tax GAAP earnings and GAAP earnings per share compared to the second quarter of last year.

The improvement in total company adjusted EBITDA was largely from both business segments service revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth, partially offset by a modest increase in the corporate segment's adjusted EBITDA loss. The business segments generated $12.8 million of adjusted EBITDA, representing an 11% or $1.3 million improvement compared to the second quarter of 2024. The corporate segment's adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.5 million was slightly higher than the second quarter of last year. From a GAAP perspective, income before tax improved to $200,000 in the second quarter of 2025 compared to a loss of $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2024. This was primarily driven by higher adjusted EBITDA and lower interest expense from the new debt. Net income attributable to Altisource improved to $16.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 compared to a net loss of $8.3 million in the same quarter of 2024. The improvement in net income reflects an income tax benefit from the reversal of certain tax reserves related to our…

I wanted to just -- one piece that sort of jumped out at me on the cash flow statement, and it looks like there's a pretty meaningful working capital build. Just trying to understand what that is?

William B. Shepro

Analyst

Shachar, it's Bill. Yes, with respect to working capital, I think there's sort of normal working capital activities that are being managed. I wouldn't say there's anything that unusual in the quarter.
