Operator: Hello. Welcome to Clover Health's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Call. We ask that you please hold all questions until the completion of the formal remarks, at which time you will be given instructions for the question and answer session. Also, as a reminder, this conference is being recorded today. If you have any objections, please disconnect at this time. Ryan, you may begin.
Ryan Schmidt: Good afternoon, everyone. Joining me on our call today to discuss the company's second quarter 2026 results are Andrew Toy, Clover Health's Chief Executive Officer, and Clay Thornton, the company's Interim Chief Financial Officer. You can find today's press release and the accompanying supplemental slides, as well as the company's most recent investor deck in the investor events and presentations section of our website at investors.cloverhealth.com. This webcast is being recorded and a replay will be available in the investor relations section of the Clover Health website. I'd also like to caution you that we may make forward-looking statements during today's call that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including expectations about future performance. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations are detailed in our SEC filings, including in the risk factors section of our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and other SEC filings. Information about non-GAAP financial measures referenced, including a reconciliation of those measures to GAAP measures, can be found in the earnings materials available on our website. With that, I'll now turn the call over to Andrew.

At Clover, we've always believed the greatest opportunity for AI in healthcare is not simply to make the existing system a little more efficient. It's to help physicians make better decisions for individual patients at the point of care. That's what Clover Assistant does, and our results are increasingly demonstrating that when you improve those decisions at scale, better care, membership growth, and increasing profitability can happen together. The first half of 2026 was another important proof point of this. Through the first six months of the year, we delivered market leading MA membership growth of 48%, while increasing GAAP net income by $67 million year-over-year. At the same time, total revenue in the first half increased by more than $550 million year-over-year to $1.5 billion. Consolidated gross profit increased by $104 million, and we've expanded operating leverage by more than 200 basis points as we've scaled. We believe this performance validates how our AI-powered model not only improves care for members, but also strengthens our underlying business over time. I am proud of our results so far this year and believe we are on a strong path. I want to turn now to where the business is headed. Since our last call, two things have strengthened our confidence in 2027 and …
