Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome to discuss Neste's Q3 results that were published this morning. My name is Anssi Tammilehto. I'm SVP for Strategy, M&A and Investor Relations at Neste. Here with me, we have our President and CEO, Heikki Malinen; and our CFO, Eeva Sipila.
We are referring to the presentation that was launched into our website early this morning.

We are also talking about key regulatory developments and also key opportunities and uncertainties in the market.

And as always, please pay attention to the disclaimer as we will be making forward-looking statements in this call.
