Good morning to you all, and thanks for joining us on our call. I have with me Jonathan Timmis, our CFO; and Denis Moreau, our VP of Investor Relations. There are 5 takeaways in our today's presentation. The first takeaway is that the group delivered a robust financial performance in H1, notwithstanding the impact of lockdown restrictions in China, we delivered at constant currency, a revenue growth of 9.5%, like-for-like revenue growth of 4.9%, and EPS growth of 6.7%, a robust free cash flow and an excellent ROIC. Outside of China, the group delivered like-for-like growth of 7.1%, one of the best like-for-like performance for many years at Intertek, a double-digit operating profit growth and importantly, a 20% -- 20 basis point margin accretion.
