Thank you, Robert, and welcome, everyone. I'm extremely pleased with the operating and financial performance achieved during the 2025 third fiscal quarter. A quick run of our numbers here to get us started. Total revenue grew 32%, led by growth in both our ADHD portfolio, which was up 25%, and pediatric portfolio, which was up 77%. The strong revenue growth, coupled with the implementation of our cost reduction initiatives, which helped to decrease operating expenses by $1.6 million, led to income from operations of $2.4 million. It's important to note that this is our second quarter with positive income from operation in the company's history, another huge milestone for everyone here at Aytu. I'll note also that this is our third quarter of positive net income from continuing operations and third quarter of positive net income as well, significant accomplishments across the board. Down the income statement, net income was $4 million, which compared to a $2.9 million loss in Q3 of a year ago, and translates into basic earnings per share of $0.65 this quarter compared to a $0.52 loss in the year ago third quarter. And finally, adjusted EBITDA came in at $3.9 million compared to $0.9 million in the year ago third quarter. By nearly every financial metric there is, we had a phenomenal third quarter. While it has taken a bit of time to fully get to this point, the pieces we've been putting in place for the past number of quarters, which have focused our efforts on our prescription pharmaceutical business, are beginning to fully manifest themselves in our financial performance. Remember, over the past two years, we have halted our clinical development efforts, wound down and sold our Consumer Health business, outsourced our manufacturing to a U.S.-based CMO, and refinanced our long-term note on more favorable terms. These have been heavy lifts, but the results announced today highlight what is possible as we move this business forward. The beauty of where we sit today is that these positive financial results are being accomplished on a focused portfolio of products. I believe our commercial platform has the ability to be further leveraged in the future through additional in-licensed or acquired products that can utilize the capabilities of our CNS-focused sales team and the broader Aytu RxConnect patient access platform. This is something we are keenly focused on now and in the future. But first, back to our two current product focuses, starting with ADHD. As I mentioned, ADHD net revenue was up 25%, coming in at $15.4 million during the quarter compared to the year ago quarter. Sequentially, ADHD net revenue also increased, up 11%. Certainly strong performance from the entire commercial organization that we're very pleased with. Overall, ADHD prescriptions were approximately 94,000 during the third quarter. Looking more broadly at the ADHD stimulant market, we continue to see conditions returning to a more normalized state following a series of significant market-wide stimulant shortages commencing in early 2023 that impacted the supply of Adderall XR and amphetamine based products, as well as methylphenidate -based stimulant medications. As I've discussed, fortunately, Aytu supply was never impacted and we therefore realized short-term and long-term tailwinds from the shortages others were facing. With the market stabilization in effect, the ADHD net revenue growth was largely driven by organic growth and improvements in gross to nets through assertive management of our brand's economics. This, of course, is enabled through our Aytu RxConnect platform, gaining strong channel and dispensing insights, and therefore the ability to manage our per-script economics is a calling card of Aytu RxConnect, so it was encouraging this quarter to see these GTN improvements. We saw a benefit from savings offers, government rebates, commercial rebates, and distributor fee improvements and also took a slight price increase in January of this year. It was a favorable quarter across multiple GTN parameters, to be sure. But back to what I believe is a key driver in all of this, Aytu RxConnect, our flagship, best-in-class patient access platform. RxConnect continues to be a significant differentiator for the company and one that enables us to stand apart from the competition and truly benefit patients. As a reminder, RxConnect is, among other things, a network of about 1,000 pharmacies with which we work around the country. Many of these are independent pharmacies in local geographies that do an excellent job servicing patients and prescribers. They're small businesses that work very hard to serve patients well and to go above and beyond to deliver best-in-class patient experiences. The other part of our network is made up of regional grocery chains that are very customer centric, that provide excellent customer service and work directly with us to ensure patient access to our products and the optimal use of our savings offers. I dove into this during our last quarter a bit, but as a reminder, the biggest differentiators of Aytu RxConnect are our ability to cut through the opaqueness of the pharmacy model to offer prescribers and patients affordability, predictability, and access, irrespective of a patient's insurance or their plan design, and even during the high deductible season when many patients experience higher out-of-pocket costs. Ultimately, with RxConnect, we are putting the power back into the hands of physicians and patients, something both stakeholders so desperately need today. Today, more than 85% of the company's scripts are driven through the Aytu RxConnect network. Again, this is something we think can be leveraged in the future as we look to bring in other products to the portfolio. Transitioning now to the pediatric side of the business. As I mentioned at the beginning, pediatric portfolio net revenue increased 77% to $3.1 million compared to the prior year period. Sequentially, the pediatric portfolio net revenue increased 27%. Growth in Ped’s reflects the positive effects from a recently implemented return to growth plan, as well as improvements in product gross to nets. As a reminder, looking back a few quarters ago, we were impacted by a variety of payer and channel challenges. Initially, we saw the impact when a large payer stopped covering a big portion of pediatric fluoride-based multivitamins that affected the entire multivitamin plus fluoride class. This was exacerbated further as we had some fairly concentrated dispensing pharmacies where this payer has a large market share. Our antihistamine was affected similarly by a payer change in an area where we had a pretty significant concentration of prescribers with that product largely covered by Medicaid. We have put in place a series of initiatives focused on diversifying the prescriber base and improving payer coverage for both franchises, multivitamins as well as with our antihistamine franchise. In particular, we have focused on expanding areas of promotion, diversifying our base of dispensing pharmacies, and bringing on several payers that we hadn't had covering our products before. We've also deployed sales representatives and shifted some promotional resources to our pediatric products. Previously, pediatric sales were conducted with a much smaller group of sales specialists that focused on promoting those products. For the last couple of quarters, though, we shifted our salesforce's product mix, providing for a better balanced and more impactful product penetration, and specifically with increased short-term emphasis on those pediatric products. We'll prudently allocate resources and evaluate the most appropriate product promotional mix to leverage our salesforce most effectively. We'll also, of course, monitor all macro and political factors that could have the potential to impact our brands, whether that be our ADHD brands, our fluoride supplements, or our antihistamine franchise. And of course, we'll then shift accordingly in terms of our priorities. Being nimble and responsive to what we believe are our best growth drivers is a critical success factor here for Aytu. So we'll always focus resources on the products we believe can drive the most growth, depending upon all commercial and macro factors we track. Clearly, the work we have done in the last 6 to 12 months is starting to be highlighted more fully in our financial results. As we have stated for some time now, we first and foremost are focused on the continued organic growth of our ADHD and pediatric portfolios. Today's results highlight our execution on that initiative. Second, we have focused on driving efficiencies across the organization. Again, that started with our decision to stop our development work, continued with our shutdown and sale of our Consumer Health business, expanded with the outsourcing of our manufacturing, and concluded in some ways with the optimization initiatives we announced recently to cut out an additional $2 million annually from our operating expenses. All of these moves are nearly fully recognized in the results you see today. With our infrastructure near full optimization, we remain focused on leveraging our platform through the pursuit of additional in-licensed or acquired products that can utilize the capabilities of our CNS-focused sales team and the broader Aytu RxConnect patient access platform. We are adept at identifying valuable assets and aligning with partners to seek a commercial partner with unique capabilities. So we see a tremendous advantage -- a tremendous opportunity rather to leverage our infrastructure, our capabilities, and our expertise and to diversify our portfolio by in-licensing and or acquiring assets. Of course, we'll be smart about it and look to pick these assets up as attractively as possible in win-win transactions for us and our prospective partners. As you can hear, I'm extremely pleased with the progress made and the results being more fully manifested in our financial results. In some ways, this was the type of breakout quarter that we always knew we were capable of when we implemented the series of strategic initiatives over the past couple of years. It's great to see it come to fruition. Let me now turn the call over to Ryan to review the financials in more detail, after which I'll provide a few closing comments, and we'll be happy to take your questions. Ryan?
