Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon and welcome. I'm Lili, your webcast operator, and I would like to thank you for joining NOB Group's live webcast, where we would like to present and discuss with you our performance in the 3rd quarter 2025.
Before we start, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that our system for voice questions is slightly different this time. Instead of calling us, you can ask your question in person directly in Zoom. We will not be able to see you. We will just hear your voice. If you would like to ask your question in person, please type the word call in the chat, and we will make sure that your call is placed. When it's your turn to speak, I will say your name, and you will get a notification on your screen asking you to unmute your mic.
If you prefer to ask your question in writing, just type it in the same chat. This means that you can write in the chat either call or the question you would like to ask.
Please have a look at the disclaimer on the screen.
At this point, I would like to turn this conference over to Mr. Blas Brodnik,
