At this time, it's my pleasure to hand over to Armin Papperger, CEO. Please go ahead, sir.
Thank you very much. Good afternoon. I start with page number 3, and I welcome you to the full-year call of the Rheinmetall Group. The year 2025 was a good year for Rheinmetall. We had smaller impacts from the ammunition side because of the accident that we had in Murcia. But I think with nearly EUR10 billion sales, itâs a good year.
The operating result is growing 33% to EUR1.841 billion, and the operating margin is growing up to 18.5%. Important is to understand that we no longer have our civilian business in those figures, so we lose about EUR2 billion on sales.
