Thank you for standing by and welcome to the Evolution Mining FY25 full-year financial results. (Operator Instructions)
I would now be attend the conference over to Mr. Lawrie Conway, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer. Please go ahead.
Thank you, Kayleigh, and good morning, everyone. I'm joined on the call today by Matt O'Neill, our Chief Operating Officer, and Peter O'Connor, our GM Investor Relations.
Today, we released our FY25 full-year financial results and an excellent set of results they are, with many new records established and increased returns for our shareholders. These results were achieved through the efforts of our employees and contractors, who I sincerely thank for their contribution during the year. To release our financial results today has also taken many long hours by the Finance and Investor Relations team, so an extra special thanks to them. I'll be talking to the presentation we released on the ASX this morning.
