Chief Executive Officer - Michael DeGiglio Chief Operating Officer - Ann Gillin Lefever Senior Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Investor Relations - Sam Gibbons Operator: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Village Farms International's second quarter 2026 financial results conference call. This morning, Village Farms issued a news release reporting its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
That news release, along with the company's financial statements, are available on the company's website at villagefarms.com under the Investors heading. Please note that today's call is being broadcast live over the Internet and will be archived for replay both by telephone and by the Internet, beginning approximately 1 hour following completion of the call. Details of how to access the replays are available in today's news release.
Before we begin, let me remind you that forward-looking statements may be made today, during or after the formal part of this conference call. Certain material assumptions were applied in providing these statements, many of which are beyond our control. These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements.
A summary of these underlying assumptions, risks, and uncertainties is contained in the company's various securities filings with the SEC and Canadian regulators, including its Form 10-K MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025, and 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which will be available on EDGAR and SEDAR+. These forward-looking statements are made as of today's date and, except as required by applicable securities law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any statements. I would now like to turn the call over to Michael DeGiglio, Chief Executive Officer of Village Farms International.
Mike DeGiglio: Thank you, [ Liz ]. And good morning, everyone. And thank you for joining us for our second quarter results.
With me today are Steve Ruffini, our Chief Financial Officer, and Ann Gillin Lefever, our Chief Operating Officer, and [ Sam Gibbons ], our Senior Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Investor Relations. I will begin with my customary review of our highlights from the quarter, then Steve will review the segments and financials in more detail before I make some last closing comments. Our second quarter results continue to demonstrate the strength of our expanding global cannabis platform, driven by record cannabis revenues as we continue growing in target markets and product categories in the countries we currently operate in.
