Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Lesaka Fiscal Third Quarter 2022 Earnings Webcast. At this time, all participants are in listen-only mode. As a reminder, this webcast is being recorded.
With me for the webcast today are Chris Meyer, Group CEO; Lincoln Mali, South African CEO; Steven Heilbron, Head Of Merchant Business, and CEO of the Connect Group; and of course, Naeem Kola, Group CFO.
A reminder to everyone that we are streaming, both a webcast as well as a teleconference. Dialing into the webcast will allow you to see the management team and the presentation they will be presenting versus dialing into the teleconference, which will only stream the audio. Both links as well as our press release are available on our investor relations website. As a reminder, during this call, we will be making forward looking statements. And I ask you to look at the cautionary language contained in our form 10Q regarding the risks and uncertainties associated with forward looking statements.
Our results are discussed in South African Rand, which is non-GAAP. We analyze our results of operations in our press release in Rand to assist investors in understanding the underlying trends in our business. As you know, the company results can be significantly affected by the currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the South African Rand. We will address any questions you may have at the end of the presentation. For those joining us via the webcast link, you can submit your questions via the webcast page. For those joining via teleconference. You'll be given the opportunity to raise your questions at the end of the presentation.
With that, it's my pleasure to hand over to your group CEO, Chris Meyer. Chris?
