Welcome to the Eurofins Scientific Full Year 2019 Results. (Operator Instructions)

I'll now hand the floor to our first speaker, Dr. Gilles Martin, Eurofins' CEO. Please begin.

Gilles G. Martin - Eurofins Scientific SE - Chairman of the Board & CEO

Hello, everybody, and thank you for joining our annual result call. There is a slide show on our website, and I invite you to check the disclaimer on Page 2. That's where -- I think to what I'm saying. So I'm going to do a very short introduction, then Laurent Lebras will talk a bit about the financial aspects for this year, and then we'll focus most of the call for questions.

So in 2019, what are the highlights? It's on Slide 4 of the presentation. Of course, unfortunately, we were hit on June 2 by a massive cyberattack by criminals which has caused a lot of disruptions to our systems, and some of our laboratories after checking and cleaning their servers could only restart after 2 weeks. That has caused us a significant cost, and for the rest of the year, a lot of the focus for our management.
