Thanks, Jay, and good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining Owlet, Inc.'s third quarter 2025 financial results call. As you saw from our results, Q3 was another exceptional quarter, the best in Owlet, Inc. history across key metrics. We are firing on all cylinders as a business. Let's get right to the financial highlights and update. I'll start with the third quarter results at the top of Slide five. We drove broad-based growth in Q3, hitting company records across the business. Q3 revenue was a record for Owlet, Inc. at $32 million, increasing 45% versus Q3 2024. Revenue outperformance was driven by the launch of our new DreamSight camera and ongoing momentum in the core business. Q3 gross profit of $16.2 million was a record, resulting in Q3 gross margins of 50.6% as top-line strength was able to offset tariff impacts. Q3 adjusted EBITDA of $1.6 million was also a record for Owlet, Inc. and our sixth consecutive quarter of adjusted EBITDA profitability. And we're proud to announce Q3 operating income of $1.2 million, our first quarterly operating profit in company history. Before highlighting some key developments in our strategic growth areas, I would like to comment on the FDA's recent safety communication on September 6, regarding unauthorized infant monitors as a critical moment of market clarification and how this can translate into a strong validation of Owlet, Inc.'s strategy. The FDA's warning clearly cautions consumers and caregivers against over-the-counter infant monitors that have not been reviewed for safety and effectiveness and make unsubstantiated claims. This action creates a firm demarcation in the market. On one side, unreviewed unauthorized devices the FDA is actively cautioning against. On the other side, Owlet, Inc.'s DreamSock. We are proud to stand alone as the first FDA-cleared over-the-counter infant monitoring device and the only…

Thanks, Jonathan, and good afternoon, everyone. I'll begin on Slide nine. Unless noted otherwise, I will be comparing third quarter 2025 results to 2024. Q3 was another very strong quarter, setting records across the business. As Jonathan referenced, the best in Owlet, Inc. history. Third quarter 2025 revenue was $32 million, an increase of 44.6% compared to the prior year. Revenue strength was driven by the launch of our next-generation camera, DreamSight, with load-in from our domestic and international retail partners as well as ongoing momentum in DreamSock and Owlet 360's subscription. Q3 gross profit of $16.2 million was a record for the business, resulting in Q3 gross margins of 50.6%. As top-line strength was able to offset tariff impacts. Reminder that in Q3, tariff cost impact included a blend of the previously announced 10% tariffs on Thailand and Vietnam and newly increased tariffs of 19% and 20% on Thailand and Vietnam respectively. In Q3, tariff costs negatively impacted our gross margin by 280 basis points. Total operating expenses in the third quarter were $15 million versus $16.4 million in the same period last year. It is important to note two specific items that impact year-over-year comparability. First, this quarter includes a $1.2 million insurance recovery related to the shareholder litigation we discussed in Q4 2024. Second, the prior year quarter included a $1.9 million non-cash impairment charge associated with our internally developed software. As a percentage of revenue, Q3 operating expenses were 47% compared to 74% in Q3 2024 as we continue to drive strong operating leverage as we scale the business. Q3 operating income was a record for Owlet, Inc. at $1.2 million, the first quarter of positive operating profit in company history. Net income was also positive in the third quarter at $4.1 million versus a $5.6…

We ask that you please limit yourselves to one question and one follow-up and reenter the queue. We'll pause here briefly as questions are registered. First question is from the line of Charles Rhyee with TD Cowen. Your line is now open.

Lucas Romanski

Analyst

Hi, this is Lucas Romanski on for Charles Rhyee. Thanks for taking the questions and congrats on the quarter. I want to ask about your guys' opportunity to partner with health systems. Would love to hear some incremental color on, you know, the early experience that you guys have had with the Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters in Virginia. I guess just how the partnership has gone so far and then obviously, I understand it's early days, but would be curious to see if you've seen other health systems reach out, seeking to form similar partnerships.

Jonathan Harris

Management

Yeah. Thank you very much. Great question. As you know, we're super early with the CHKD partnership. And we just went live with our integration with them on the RPM. They're happy. We're happy. So far, the integration is very successful. And we are leveraging the CHKD relationship and partnership as a pilot for other healthcare systems. We are already in conversations with both us and looking at the CHKD integration. So we don't have anything to share today. But look for something very soon. And we're very opportunistic on this as we get down the road.

Lucas Romanski

Analyst

Okay. Appreciate that. And then just a follow-up. Want to ask about international growth, obviously strong, 171% growth in Q3. As well as, you know, adding new regulatory clearance in India. So, you know, would expect this momentum to continue, but can you just help us understand which countries are you seeing the most growth in right now? And I guess as we think out to 2026, what markets should we think about continuing to drive the growth and adoption in international markets?

Jonathan Harris

Management

Yeah. Overall, international performed very well this quarter. This is one of the things that we hinted at on our Q2 earnings call. If you recall, Q2 was a lighter quarter for international. And the reason for that is that we just launched our third-generation DreamSight and Dream Duo products. With the sell-in to our distributors occurring during Q3. So that's why we saw the Q2 softness. It's really heads up year to date, but overall, really pleased with the performance internationally. We still have continued momentum. We're seeing sell-through growing in all of our European countries. It's going well. We've also been announcing new clearances, which will give us further opportunity for global expansion.

Thank you for your question. Next question is from the line of Owen Ray Rickert with Northland Capital Markets. Your line is now open.

Owen Ray Rickert

Analyst

Hey guys, thanks for taking my question here and congrats on a great quarter. I guess quickly, can you elaborate on how the Rhapsody partnership changes the value proposition of BabySat? Or your broader clinical platform for these hospital or potential hospital partners? And then more specifically on that, how does it streamline implementation or improve clinician engagement compared to before the integration?

Jonathan Harris

Management

Yep. Hey. Thank you, Owen Ray Rickert. Good to hear your voice again. Yeah. We're super excited about the Rhapsody integration. This is the RPM integration that's the engine that drives, which we're calling Owlet Connect. And by driving this, this is giving neonatologists and hospitals real-time access to the BabySat data as the babies are discharged from the NICU in their home. So the neonatologist can log in through their platforms leveraging the Rhapsody and the Owlet Connect to get real-time data. So what's really great about this integration is we've built the structure, and now we can very quickly plug this into other hospital systems. So we believe that this is going to give us the opportunity to scale and add new hospital networks and new platforms at a much more rapid pace.

Owen Ray Rickert

Analyst

Got it. Super helpful. And then secondly for me, in terms of Owlet 360, how are those subscriber retention rates trending? And maybe are there any specific features or new features to call out that might be driving some higher engagement or improved LTV?

Jonathan Harris

Management

Yeah. Another great question. We're not sharing any of our subscriber churn numbers today, but we are seeing subscribers stay on our platform for quite a while. If you'll recall, we launched this in January, so we don't have full-year results yet. But we are seeing strong engagement from our Owlet 360 customers. We can actually already tell, many of the families who are using Oura Ring. Because we're getting a lot of the same feature sets that Oura is delivering on their platform and they're asking for that same feature set for their babies on Owlet 360. So super excited about that. And as you'll recall, Owlet 360 today is primarily based on sock features. So, look forward to a lot more camera features especially with the new launch of DreamSight. Which is a next-generation platform and has AI capabilities built right in. So we see a lot more camera and duo features coming to the market as we begin to grow and expand. And as you'll recall, we have as many camera users on our platform every night as Sock. We really believe that we can scale and grow this opportunity.

Thank you for your question. There are currently no further questions registered. So as a reminder, there are no additional questions waiting at this time, so I'll pass the call back to Jonathan Harris for any concluding remarks.

Jonathan Harris

Management

Sorry about that. So as we head into the final month of 2025, I'm incredibly proud of the progress our team has made in strengthening Owlet, Inc.'s foundation and delivering meaningful innovation for every family. This quarter's results demonstrate both resilience and focus, proof that our strategy to expand our products globally and enhance our hero product ecosystem is working. As we look ahead, entering a pivotal phase scaling our impact, broadening our reach, deepening consumer and investor trust, and driving sustainable growth through smarter technology and operational excellence. Our mission remains clear: to become the wellness ally for parents by empowering them with peace of mind and valuable health and sleep data. We're excited about what lies ahead as we continue building on this momentum and broaden our relationship with Owlet, Inc. families across the globe. Again, thank you, and let's soar.
