Thank you, Matt. It's great to be with all of you for my first earnings call as CEO. The firm had a very strong third quarter. We achieved adjusted revenue of $376 million for the quarter and $1.05 billion for the first 9 months of 2025, representing increases of 34% and 37%, respectively, versus prior year periods. Our level of client engagement and new business origination continue to be robust, and our pipeline remains near all-time highs. To give you a sense of the firm's momentum, in just the past week, we advised clients on several significant transactions, including Essential Utilities on one of the largest U.S. utility mergers in history, the Delaware Attorney General on OpenAI's recapitalization and the New York Giants on the landmark sale of a minority stake in the historic NFL franchise. We remain active on the hiring front and finished the quarter with 170 managing directors. Year-to-date, we've hired 10 managing directors, including 5 MDs since our last earnings call. These MDs will enhance our expertise and global reach in key sectors and products, including technology, industrials, private capital advisory, capital markets and M&A. Now let me discuss each of our businesses, beginning with M&A. Our business this quarter benefited from both an increase in larger strategic M&A and sponsor transactions, resulting in a meaningful increase in our average M&A fee. On the strategic side, we are seeing corporates lean into transformative deals to achieve scale and navigate rapid technological change. This activity is supported by improved clarity around trade policy and tariffs and a more accommodative regulatory environment. On the sponsor side, the significant pent-up need for sponsors to return to capital to LPs and a robust financing environment have accelerated sponsor activity. These dynamics set the stage for what we believe will be a steadily improving multiyear M&A cycle. In Capital Structure Advisory, our team continues to be engaged on a healthy level of liability management assignments. While ample liquidity and access to diverse pools of capital are resulting in fewer traditional restructurings, our team is a leader in delivering out-of-court solutions for clients. Additionally, our recent investments in enhanced credit side coverage have diversified this business and position us well for future opportunities. Turning to Capital Markets. Our Capital Markets business has been a standout performer with year-to-date revenues more than double the same period last year. We're on pace for a record year as our enhanced capabilities in public and private capital markets have positioned us to take advantage of a risk-on environment to raise capital around growth companies and emerging technologies. We believe the massive expansion in private credit has also created a significant opportunity to help clients access this important asset class. And finally, as we look at Private Capital Advisory, we expect this business to be a key engine of growth, becoming a meaningful fourth pillar of our business and complementing our leading sponsor franchise. On our Q2 earnings call, we highlighted 3 significant hires, including our new Global Head of PCA. Since their joining, we have had seamless integration with our sector and sponsor coverage teams and seen substantial growth in active mandates focused on GP-led secondaries. We are very excited about our team's early momentum and expect PCA to become a significant contributor to our firm. We are continuing to hire talent at all levels and plan to build this business into a market leader. Looking ahead, we are optimistic about the continued improvement in the transaction environment. In the very near term, the U.S. government shutdown, depending upon how long it goes, could slow the pace of regulatory reviews potentially affecting deal closing time lines. However, from where we sit today, this is not impacting our clients' appetite for strategic transactions, and we expect continued acceleration in deal activity. I'll now pass the call to Chris to discuss our financial results before I wrap up with a few closing remarks. Chris, over to you.
