Thank you, Amy, and good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining us on this call. This was another successful quarter for Cornerstone as we posted record revenue for the third consecutive quarter. Each of our products performed well and with the addition of PERTZYE and our generic equivalent of Tussionex along with the anticipated launch of BETHKIS later this year, we believe we are well on our way to delivering on our goal to add 3 new therapies to our portfolio this year. We are extremely pleased with these results, which reflect the success of our strategic focus on hospital and adjacent specialty markets that has truly transformed our business. Some highlights from this quarter include, net revenues reached $53.7 million, up 43% from the third quarter of 2012, which again is the highest quarterly revenue in the company's history. Profitability continued to improve as net income per diluted share jump at $0.31 from $0.05 during the third quarter of 2012. On a non-GAAP basis, net income per diluted share for the third quarter of 2013 was $0.46, up from $0.19 in the comparable quarter of last year. Gross margin reached 76%, an increase of 14 percentage points over the third quarter of 2012. Our market products all continue to perform well and achieve growth. Let me give you a quick overview of each one. I will start with CARDENE, ready to use bags, which is indicated for the short-term treatment of hypertension in the hospital market when oral therapy is not feasible or desirable. We acquired the worldwide rights for this product in June of 2012 with the acquisition of EKR Therapeutics, and we are pleased with the positive impact it has had on our business. Net sales of CARDENE increased significantly during the quarter and a strong performance…

Thanks, Craig. And good morning, everyone. As Craig indicated, we are very happy with our performance this quarter, strong top and bottom line growth and cash generation. Net revenues grew 43% year-over-year, bringing us to $53.7 million compared with $37.5 million in the third quarter of 2012. I should mention that this is a first report in quarter this year, that compares directly with the equivalent quarter of 2012 in terms of Cornerstone's structure and focus pulling our acquisition of EKR at the end of Q2 2012. Looking now to the market products that Craig mentioned, for CARDENE net product sales were $20.7 million for the quarter, compared to sales of $12.8 million for the third quarter of 2012. As Craig mentioned, this significant increase in sales largely reflects our ability to supply the market while generic manufacturers continue to experience product shortages. This is the second consecutive quarter during which we benefited from the generic shortage. While we expect sales to return to normal levels at some point in future, this shortage continues and we have no foresight into when it will end. CARDENE sales were also impacted by reduction in our estimated rate of chargebacks and adjustment to reduce our estimate of product returns, which were partially offset by increases in our estimated rates for price adjustments. CUROSURF net product sales totaled $11.2 million during the quarter, representing an increase of 13% compared to third quarter of 2012. This increase was driven by greater unit volume along with decreases in our estimated rates for price adjustments and chargebacks due to an increase in contract prices. The ZYFLO family of product continues to perform very well. Net sales amounted to $19.8 million for the third quarter of 2013, an increase of 36% over the third quarter of 2012, growth…

Thanks, Alastair. As you can see, we believe that our continued progress demonstrates that we have the right strategy in place and that our company can successfully execute within this market. In addition to our market products, we develop and maintain a pipeline of products and are working diligently to move these products forward to approval and commercial launch. I would like to now give you some updates on the products currently in our pipeline. Starting with RETAVASE, as we shared on previously quarterly calls, there was an unknown inherent stability failure. The team is making good progress on our work to address such matters and generate new stability data. Our focus is on both improving the supply chain and streamlining the overall process as much as possible. We believe that our work in this area, will allow us to both achieve a target relaunch in late 2015 and to develop a more robust process. Currently, we are on track to finalize our first set of batches utilizing our new process in February of 2014. In parallel, we find a move forward with Retaflo, our catheter clearance program utilizing Reteplase, the active ingredient in RETAVASE. If approved RETAVASE will give us the opportunity to further strenghen our relationships with the cardiology community and aid in our long-term growth plan for the hospital market. In regards to LIXAR, in September, we submitted our request for a meeting with the division of cardiovascular and renal drug products to the FDA, to discuss the contents of the Complete Response Letter received on October 31, 2012, for the LIXAR NDA. That meeting is scheduled for December 5, 2013, and following that meeting, we will determine our next steps regarding the LIXAR problem. Before close, I want to update you on legal matters regarding CARDENE.…

[Operator Instructions] And this time, we have no further questions at this time.

I would like to thank everyone for joining the call and we look forward to talking to everyone next quarter. Thank you.

Thank you. That does conclude today's conference. Thank you all for your participation.
