Thank you, Tyler, and thank you all for joining us this afternoon. We've made substantial progress during 2023 and have entered 2024 in a position of strength. Allied Esports International, Allied Mobile Entertainment, and Allied Experiential Entertainment are all poised for growth as we execute on our strategic objectives this year. Let's begin with a review of our financial performance for the year. In 2023, total revenues of $7.7 million were up 21% from 2022. While our net loss attributable to common stockholders decreased by 68%. The improvement in net loss was from our continued commitment to reduce our expenses. General and administrative expenses improved by 30% and we're well-positioned for 2024. Turning to Allied Esports International, or AEI, our HyperX Arena was in high demand during the fourth quarter, and hosted a variety of events with 64 events, comprising 30 proprietary events and 34 third-party events. Notable events at HyperX Arena included Omen Showcase Party, which featured over 10 different tournaments as we unveiled the exciting new lines of Omen and HyperX equipment that visitors had the opportunity to experience while visiting HyperX Arena. World Esports Day celebration in conjunction with the TwitchCon Afterparty; EA Sports F1 2023 Las Vegas Showrun; a thrilling virtual race that featured stars from both sports and entertainment to celebrate the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix, and acted as the official kickoff to the race. The All MLB team award show during which Major League Baseball announced its All MLB first and second teams and was joined by current MLB players as well as past legends of the game. The event included a celebratory player entrance and pre-show reception and was broadcast live on MLB Network. We were also honored to have HyperX Arena featured in Mark Wahlberg's hit new movie, The Family Plan, which was released in December. The well-received movie has highlighted the Arena itself and all the high-tech gaming equipment in it, which opened more potential for similar productions fully utilizing the Arena assets. Movie viewers are able to get a sense of the fun life-action that takes place for both participants and viewers during competitions at the Arena. Finally, post quarter end HyperX Arena held an event hosted by the HP gaming brand, Omen and HyperX during CES. The event included product demos, industry panels and a thrilling performance by DJ Steve Aoki. An exciting partnership was also announced as Omen and HyperX will become Riot Games official technology partners and will provide expertise on Global Esports events across League of Legends, the Valorant Champions Tour and Teamfight Tactics in 2024. We always appreciate when companies choose HyperX Arena, as it is a testament to our world-class facility and team which can be utilized for various reasons by the work or fun or both. Turning to our proprietary content following a successful first year of a WANNABE, which explores the journeys of professional gamers and professional athletes who have appeared on YES Network is in 2: Part One was just recently released on the Yes app. We remain engaged with other potential partners to utilize our assets and expertise to create additional new and engaging content series for our viewers and will update you as details are finalized. We have now integrated Beijing Lianzhong Zhihe Technology, or Z-Tech into Allied Mobile Entertainment, or AME following the closing of our strategic investment on October 31, 2023. Z-Tech, a prominent mobile games developer and operator with exciting game advertising strategies has progressed our vision for AME. We expect the investment to improve our overall financial performance significantly and contribute to enhancing our distribution capabilities this year for our own catalogue of mobile games. During 2023, Z-Tech demonstrated strong financial results with revenue of $17 million and positive net income. This year is off to a strong start and we expect our financials will see a benefit at both the top and bottom lines in 2024, now that Z-Tech's financials are consolidated into ours. Allied Experiential Entertainment, or AEE has made remarkable progress to close out the year, which has become more evident following recent announcements. Beginning in November, we formed Skyline Music Entertainment Limited, a joint venture based in Macau that will aim to capitalize on the burgeoning and large untapped entertainment industry in Asia. That line has already finalized its first upcoming event. The opening leg of the first-ever China tour of the highly acclaimed and multiple journal award-winning band Walk off the Earth on April 4, 2024. Locals are showing great enthusiasm for the event during which Skyline will oversee talent management, show promotion, sponsorship marketing, ticket sales and onsite event management. Skyline also currently has a pipeline of additional events that we expect to finalize in the near future. In December, Elite Fun Entertainment, a company with expertise in orchestrating live events across Asia, notably within China's Greater Bay announced a significant investment into AGAE, validating their belief in our vision and the clear opportunity in the Asia market. Partnering with Elite Fun provides us with additional local expertise, which is essential in successfully planning and operating events in the region. In addition, their partnerships with companies such as Tencent and Douyin, which is Bytedance will be an advantage as we look to further expand our reach. Most recently, earlier this month, we announced a new partnership with World Poker Tour and Wynn Macau to bring World Poker Tour to Macau for the first time in its two-decade-long history. World Poker Tour in Macau, which runs from June 18 to 24 will attract Poker Stars from all over the world, featuring both championship and high roller events, with buy-ins of HK$40,000 and HK$200,000, respectively. We've continued to maintain a strong relationship with the team at World Poker Tour, since we sold the company in 2021. And along with Wynn Macau, we're thrilled to be working with them on this inaugural event as well as future ones. Along with WPT and Wynn, Elite Fun was integral in securing local approvals and assisting in logistics for WPT Macau, underscoring the significance of our partnership. Hosting and operating live events, especially internationally poses formidable challenges, yet leveraging our established relationships and expertise, we streamline the process for our partners, greatly enhancing the prospect of successful and memorable events across continents. Before turning it over to Roy, I would like to provide an update on our stock repurchase plan. We continue to believe our stock is undervalued and have now repurchased approximately 2.3 million shares of AGAE between the announcement of the plan in November 2022 and the end of 2023. I will now turn the call over to our CFO, Roy Anderson to provide updates on our Q4 financials.

Thank you, Yinghua. Good afternoon, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. Our total revenues for 2023 were $7.7 million, up $1.3 million or 21% from 2022. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in sponsorship revenue relating to the renewal of our naming rights agreement at our flagship Esports facility, HyperX Arena, Las Vegas. Season 2 have elevated and two months of revenue from our recent acquisition of Z-Tech. On a quarterly basis, revenues for the fourth quarter were $2.1 million, a $0.9 million or 70% increase from the prior year period. The increase from the fourth quarter of 2022 was driven by an increase in HyperX Arena sponsorship revenues and two months of Z-Tech operations. Turning to expenses. In 2023, total costs and expenses were $14.3 million, a decrease of 21% compared to 2022. The decrease in costs and expenses is primarily due to a $3.2 million or 30% reduction in general and administrative expenses. For the fourth quarter, total costs and expenses of $4 million saw a slight increase of 2% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Our net loss was $3.6 million in 2023, down significantly from $10.8 million in 2022. The decrease was driven by revenue growth within our multi-platform content and casual mobile gaming streams, interest income on our short-term investments and our continued focus on managing our expenses. For the fourth quarter, our net loss was $1.1 million, compared to $1.7 million in the prior year period. Our 2023 adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.6 million was down from a loss of $8.6 million in 2022. Our fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.2 million also improved down from a loss of $1.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Our adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments for depreciation, amortization, business acquisition transaction costs, stock-based compensation, and interest income. Now on to our balance sheet. At December 31, 2023, our cash and short-term investments position totaled $78.6 million, including $5 million of restricted cash compared to $86.8 million at December 31, 2022. The company's working capital surplus defined as current assets minus current liabilities was $66.4 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $79.1 million at December 31, 2022. Also, during the quarter and under the stock repurchase program mentioned by Yinghua, we acquired 36,977 shares of our common stock in open market transactions at an average selling price of $0.83 for a total repurchase cost of $30,846 excluding broker fees. We continue to believe that our current share price does not reflect the company's intrinsic value and we'll evaluate further repurchases based on market conditions, stock price and other factors. I now turn the call back over to Yinghua.

Thank you, Roy. 2023 was a very busy year at Allied Gaming & Entertainment, and one that we believe set us up extremely well to capitalize in 2024 and beyond. Across the Allied ecosystem, we have made great progress, advancing on our initiatives and have continued to demonstrate to our current and potential customers and partners, the value and entertainment that we consistently provide. With Z-Tech now integrated into our business, AEE finalizing events and expanding its presence in Asia and the continued demand we have for our AEI properties and content, I would like to reiterate that we're extremely excited for the year ahead and very confident in our path forward. Thank you for your time today. We look forward to speaking with you again when we release our first quarter 2024 results in May.

And ladies and gentlemen, that does conclude today's teleconference. You may disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you for your participation.
