Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Klaveness Combination Carriers Q4 2025 report presentation. You may have also noticed that we published our annual report for 2025 today, as well. So this presentation will cover some numbers from 2025, but it will primarily focus on the Q4, findings or the Q4, results.
So today, first up on the agenda will be CEO Engebret Dahm, who will go through a brief summary of the report, followed by CFO and Deputy CEO Liv Hege Dyrnes, who will walk you through the financials, as well as the sustainability performance for Q4.
Engebret will then conclude with the market update and the future outlook for KCC in the coming months.
