Welcome to the Nibe Q4 presentation for 2025. (Operator Instructions) Now I will hand the conference over to the CEO, Eric Lindquist and CFO, Hans Backman. Please go ahead.
Thank you very much. Good morning or good afternoon to all of you out there. Hello also from my side. We appreciate you calling in and just for the sake of order, we would like to present the report now in 20, 25 minutes at most and then allow for questions, of course. And then we have, as a target, to stop the whole interview here around 12:00. And just another sake of order, we could possibly allow two questions per analyst or per person and then you have to queue up again to allow as many as possible to put questions to us.
All right, with that said, once again, welcome. And we're going to go through a number of slides, and I think that the headline as such gives a pretty good picture of what we're going to talk about and we hope that you read the report and of course it's been a very transparent year to you
