Good morning, and welcome to our nine months 2024-'25 conference call. I'm Lars Rasmussen, Interim CEO of Coloplast, and I'm joined by CFO, Anders Lonning-Skovgaard and our Investor Relations team. We will start with a short presentation by Anders and myself and then open up for questions.

Please turn to slide number 3. It has now been three months since I took over as interim CEO and my focus during this period has been to continue the work on preparing the new company strategy. With our new strategy, we are reinvigorating the focus on delivering the best customer experience by putting the customer at the center of everything we do.

This also means delivering a step change in innovation to solidify our position as the innovation leader in our industry. I firmly believe our new strategy will create value for all of our stakeholders, customers, shareholders, employees and partners, and I look forward to sharing more at our Capital Markets Day on the second of September.
