Thank you, Amit. Good day everyone and thank you again for joining us. Reported revenues of $1,088,000 for the second quarter of 2018, representing a 71% sequential increase over the previous quarter revenues of $635,000. The increase was primarily attributed to growth in commercial sales of the DragonFly 2020 Pro 3D printer, which began in the fourth quarter of 2017. Research and development expenses for the quarter declined to $2,063,000, compared to $2,548,000 in the first quarter of 2018 and $2,955,000 in the second quarter of 2017, as the company successfully reduced its out of the headcount as part of our transition from initial product development stage into full commercial operations. Sales and marketing expenses for the second quarter increased to $1,086,000, compared to $786,000 in the first quarter of 2018 and $463,000 in the second quarter of 2017. The increase was mainly attributed to headcount increases and related expenses and marketing and advertising expenses associated with our accelerated commercial operations. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were $609,000, compared to $885,000 in the first quarter of 2018 and $1,040,000 in the second quarter of 2017. This favorable trend is primarily attributed to a decrease in professional services and fee expenses. We reported a net loss of $3,770,000, or $0.04 per share for the second quarter, compared to a loss of $4,123,000, or $0.05 per share, in the first quarter of the year and $4,737,000, or $0.09 per share, in the second quarter of 2017. We are diligent about controlling our operating expenses and maintaining a consistent cash burn rate, while actively shifting resources from R&D to growing our sales operations and commercial expansions. Our expected burn rate through the end of the year not including manufacturing costs, which are related directly to our revenue generation plan is about $1.3 million per month. The CapEx for the second quarter of 2018 was about $610,000. And depreciation and amortization expenses for the quarter were about $480,000. Share based payment for the second quarter was about $71,000. We ended the second quarter of 2018 with $11,601,000 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $6,103,000 on the end of 2017. The increase mainly reflects the proceeds received from the issuance of our ordinary shares in the first quarter of 2018, less the cash used in operations during the first half of the year. We ended the second quarter with approximately $2.5 million of product inventory, which we expect to tune in the ordinary course. With that, I will turn the call back over to Amit for final remarks.
