Our second quarter results represent another strong quarter of execution for nLIGHT with total revenue, gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA at or above our expectations, driven by continued strength in our key defense and advanced manufacturing markets. Our pipeline of new opportunities in directed energy continues to expand, with the Department of War's Joint Laser Weapon Systems contract as the latest example. Our laser sensing and advanced manufacturing opportunities also continue to grow, providing us with a broad base of new and existing programs that we expect will continue to provide attractive long-term growth opportunities for nLIGHT.
