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 sections 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 the 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'll now turn the call over to Bill.

Thanks, Michelle, and good morning. I'll begin on Slide 4. We delivered solid third quarter performance. We grew service revenue and improved pre- and post-tax GAAP earnings, GAAP earnings per share and cash flow from operations compared to the third quarter of last year. This is largely from our focus on growing our businesses that have tailwinds, cost discipline and lower interest expense. Turning to Slide 5. Compared to the third quarter of last year, we grew total company service revenue by 4% to $39.7 million. Service revenue growth primarily reflects the ramp of the Renovation business and growth in the Lenders One, Foreclosure Trustee, Granite Construction Risk Management and Field Services businesses. The business segments generated $10.9 million of adjusted EBITDA, representing modest growth compared to the third quarter of 2024. The Corporate segment's adjusted EBITDA loss of $7.3 million was slightly higher than the third quarter of last year. Adjusted EBITDA was flat at $3.6 million, primarily from service revenue growth, offset by lower business segment margins from revenue mix. Moving to Slide 6. From a GAAP perspective, our loss before income taxes and noncontrolling interests improved by $6.8 million to a pre-tax loss of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to a pretax loss of $8.5 million in the same quarter of last year. This was primarily driven by lower interest expense from the new debt. For the quarter, we improved operating cash flow by $2.3 million compared to last year. We ended the quarter with $28.6 million in unrestricted cash. In addition to delivering solid financial performance, we are making progress diversifying our customer base and growing the businesses that we believe represent an outsized growth opportunity for Altisource. These businesses, which are set forth on Slides 7 and 8 include Renovation, Granite…

[Operator Instructions] And I would now like to turn the call to Michelle for additional questions.

So we received an e-mail question. I'll read that. On August 18, the company announced some customer wins for the Equator platform. Are these customer wins expected to translate to more inventory on Hubzu in the future?

William Shepro

Analyst

Yes. Thanks, Michelle. So in August, we announced we won four new customers for the Equator platform. Three of those customers are now live and loading properties and one is in the process of implementing the Equator system. As these customers load more assets, we should begin to generate revenue. And then historically, we've had good success in cross-selling Equator customers with the Hubzu platform and other services, which we would hope to continue to do with some of these newer customers. Operator, is there any additional questions?
