Welcome to the earnings call of CEWE Group. Following the publication of the annual press and analysts conference, I would like to welcome the CEO, Thomas Mehls; and CFO, Sirka Hintze, who will guide you through the presentation and the figures shortly, followed by a Q&A session via chat.
Having said this, Mr. Mehls, the stage is yours.
Thank you very much, Mrs. Benner, and a very warm welcome from us here from the somewhat cold and sunny Oldenburg. So it's not yet springtime, I believe. It's a little bit April's weather, right?
Me too.
Yeah. So a very warm welcome to all of you. This is our annual press and analyst conference in a bit of an unusual setting. For the first time, we do this fully virtual. This allows more people to participate.
