Thank you, Wrendon, and welcome, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. Let me start by saying we're proud of the strong performance of our business and the progress we're making executing on our long-term strategy. At our core, we are a disciplined reinsurance business, writing fully collateralized policies covering property catastrophe risk. We compete through selective, data-driven underwriting with a focus on generating attractive risk-adjusted returns and long-term growth in book value per share. Our strategy centers on low frequency, high severity risks, where sufficient data exists to rigorously evaluate the risk-return profile. We emphasize disciplined risk selection, appropriate pricing and thoughtful structuring, supported by full collateralization to ensure transparency and alignment. At the same time, we continue advancing SurancePlus and our broader real-world asset initiatives, expanding access to tokenized reinsurance opportunities through strategic ecosystem relationships involving Solana, Alphaledger and LayerZero. As we approach May 31, 2026, the conclusion of the current contract season, our existing tokenized reinsurance offerings remain unaffected, with the balance-yield token currently tracking 25% ahead of its original 20% targeted return, while the high-yield token remains on track toward its 42% targeted return. We believe this combination of underwriting discipline, platform development and expanding ecosystem relationships positions Oxbridge well as we continue executing on opportunities within the growing real-world asset market. I will now turn the call over to Wrendon to take us through our financial results. Wrendon?

Thank you, Jay. I would like to remind you that our typical contract period is from June 1 to May 31 of the following year. Net premiums written for the three months ended March 31, 2026, decreased to $555,000 from $595,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is due to a lower weighted average rate on reinsurance contracts during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, when compared with the prior period. Our net investment income and other income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased to $68,000 from $29,000 in the prior comparable period. Along with net premiums, our total revenue amounted to $623,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $692,000 in the prior year comparable period. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, total expenses, including policy acquisition costs and general and administrative expenses, increased to $583,000 from $578,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase is primarily due to professional costs, investor relations and our subsidiary marketing efforts. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, was $22,000, or $0.00 basic and diluted income per share, compared to a net loss of $139,000, or $0.02 basic and diluted loss per share for the prior year quarter. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a decreased allocation of underwriting income to token holders as the company itself is a major contributor in the 2025-2026 treaty contract in place, coupled with a decrease in unrealized loss on other investments during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, when compared with the prior period. As we have discussed before on our investor calls, we use various measures to analyze the growth and profitability of our business operations. For our reinsurance business, we measure underwriting profitability by examining our loss ratio, acquisition ratio, expense ratio and combined ratio. The loss ratio is the ratio of loss sales and loss adjustment expenses to premiums earned and it measures the underwriting profitability of our reinsurance business. The loss ratio remained consistent at 0% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, when compared with the prior year comparative period. Our acquisition cost ratio, which measures operational efficiency, compares policy acquisition costs and net premiums earned. The acquisition cost ratio increased marginally to 11% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, up from 10.9% for the prior year quarter. Our expense ratio, which measures operating performance, compares policy acquisition costs and general and administrative expenses with net premiums earned. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, the expense ratio increased to $105,000 from $95,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is primarily due to increased professional costs, investor relations and our subsidiary marketing and operations. Our combined ratio, which is used to measure underwriting performance, is the sum of the loss ratio and the expense ratio. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the combined ratio increased to 105% from 95.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase again is primarily due to increased professional costs related to investor relations and our W3 subsidiary marketing and operations. Now turning to the balance sheet. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents increased by $1.21 million to $8.19 million, up from $6.98 million as of December 31, 2025. The increase is a net result of premium deposits made in the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, as well as $1 million proceeds from a short-term loan that was secured. I'll now turn the call back over to Sanjay to wrap up before we take your questions. Sanjay?

Thank you, Wrendon. We are encouraged by the strong performance of our 2025-2026 tokenized reinsurance contracts. As we approach the conclusion of the current contract season, our existing offerings remain unaffected, with the balance-yield token currently tracking 25% ahead of its original 20% targeted return, while the high-yield token remains on track toward its 42% targeted return. These results reflect our disciplined underwriting approach and further demonstrate the ability of tokenized reinsurance structures to provide differentiated, uncorrelated returns within the approximately $750 billion global reinsurance market. We have also continued advancing the reach and visibility of the SurancePlus platform through strategic relationships involving Solana, Alphaledger and LayerZero, supporting expanded interoperability and ecosystem access across more than 160 blockchain networks. We believe these relationships position SurancePlus within a growing ecosystem for real-world asset adoption. As we look ahead to the 2026-2027 underwriting cycle, we are preparing our T20 and T42 offerings targeting annual returns of 20% and 42%, respectively. Recent forecasts from Colorado State University indicate the potential for a more constructive hurricane environment relative to recent years, supported in part by anticipated El Niño conditions. In parallel, we are making meaningful progress in advancing opportunities to broaden the SurancePlus model into additional high-quality cash-generating asset categories, including initiatives involving tokenized data center revenue streams and infrastructure aligned with the continued growth of artificial intelligence. As of March 31, 2026, the company reported $8.19 million in cash and restricted cash, supporting our ongoing strategic initiatives and long-term growth opportunities. Overall, we remain focused on disciplined execution, expanding ecosystem relationships and scaling our business through our growing real-world asset initiatives as we continue building long-term shareholder value. With that, we are ready to open the call for questions. Operator, please provide the appropriate instructions.

The operator provided instructions. The first question we have comes from Kent Engelke of Capitol Securities.

Again, I'm very interested in the comments that you're making about using tokenized data center revenue streams and the like and just the infrastructure growth within AI and so forth. Larry Fink the other day predicted that there's going to be a massive futures market for computing power using tokenized assets and the like. Can you give a little bit more color on that really, I think, really cool part of your organization?

Yes. Thank you, Kent. We've been tokenizing reinsurance contracts, right? So reinsurance is a significantly large TAM market. The AI data center space could probably dwarf that significantly as well. And since we've been tokenizing reinsurance, we've made great strides in that area. We could potentially tokenize other opportunities as well, while it's a little early for us to talk about that just yet. But in the past, people have asked us when we would consider tokenizing other items, and I think the timing is right. As you just mentioned, not only Larry Fink, but various other market participants have talked about tokenization. We seem to be doing this within the four corners of the SEC. So I believe we have an amazing opportunity ahead of us, and we definitely plan on seizing that.

Cool. So it is an exciting new industry on so many different levels, competing with some very deep-pocketed people that see something similar to what you do. And obviously, hoping that Oxbridge is going to be at the forefront of all this.

Yes, absolutely.

The operator provided instructions. We have a question from Duane Roberts of Charis Industries.

When you're talking—when you said that you're looking to tokenize—maybe I didn't hear it right—you're going to look to tokenize other assets. Is that correct? Besides reinsurance?

Yes, potentially, yes. But I, unfortunately, Duane, can't speak in detail about that. It's opportunities we're still evaluating. But as I just mentioned, if we're able to tokenize an elusive asset such as reinsurance, it gives us confidence about the potential of SurancePlus going forward with other assets.

Okay. You may not comment on this, but how hard is that process? One thing you mentioned earlier with the other caller was that it was under the SEC, which I would assume is significant. So how are you looking at other potential assets, the back-office part, all of the software on it? How hard is it?

Yes, it's extremely hard, right? Because if it wasn't hard, other people would be doing it. And because the barrier to entry is also high, it's an opportunity that Oxbridge can take advantage of.

The operator provided instructions. At this stage, there seem to be no further questions on the conference. I will now hand back to Sanjay Madhu for closing remarks. Please go ahead, sir.

Thank you for joining us on today's call. Before we conclude, I would like to extend my gratitude to our employees, business partners and investors for their unwavering support. I particularly want to acknowledge our dedicated Oxbridge team whose extensive experience has been instrumental in navigating and advancing our business amidst these challenging circumstances. We anticipate providing you with future updates on our progress during our next call. And should you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us any time. Once again, thank you for your time and attention today and for your ongoing interest in Oxbridge. Operator?

Thank you, sir. Ladies and gentlemen, that then concludes today's conference. Thank you for joining us. You may now disconnect your lines.
