Okay. So welcome, everybody, to IPC's second-quarter results update presentation for 2025. I'm William Lundin, the President and CEO. And alongside me today is Christophe Nerguararian, our CFO; as well as Rebecca Gordon, our SVP of Corporate Planning and Investor Relations.
So I'll start in the usual format with the quarterly highlights and provide an operational update at each of our assets. Then, Christophe will go into greater detail on the financial aspects for the quarter. Following the presentation, we'll take questions, which can be submitted online or through the conference call.
