Michael Roney -

Good morning. It's hard to believe, but it's been 3 years since the last time we were all together here in person. And it's good to have everybody here. Since our last in-person meeting, we've had 2 new Board members joined the next board. One is Soumen Das, Soumen is CFO of Segro; and second, Tom Hall, Tom is a partner at Apax.

I came in as Chairman in 2017, and it's really amazing what happens over a period of 5 years. Back then, the LABEL business, international business were too small I would call gems, just starting to grow. And now 5 years on, they are really significant businesses.

I think one of the unique things about NEXT is the company tries a lot of new things. If it works, the Board supports it with capital, and then it grows organically. And if it doesn't prove to be success in the marketplace, we look for something else. So it's really a good sign that you have a company that's constantly trying to look for new opportunities in new places to grow.

So with that, I'll turn it over to Simon. Simon, go ahead.

Simon A. Wolfson - NEXT
