Ricardo Lewin
Good morning everyone and thank you for participating in Cosan's earnings conference call for the fourth quarter of 2022 and the full year of 2022. With me today, I have Luis Henrique, our CEO. Before going to the numbers, I would like to highlight that once again we ended 2022 fulfilling our mission and objectives for the year, even in the face of various challenges such as strong fluctuations in macroeconomic indicators, climate change, supply chain organization elections in Brazil, in addition to the conflict in Ukraine, all factors that somehow affected global volatility.
Our businesses once more show the ability to navigate different scenarios without losing focus on delivering Rumo'sresults. We had important achievements in the group that were able to follow throughout the year, such as the progress in Raizen second-generation ethanol agenda, the beginning of the execution of Moove's extension to Lucas Rio Verde project, the conclusion of the acquisition of Gaspetro by Compass, now rebranded Skubic. The acquisition of PetroChoice by Moove at Cosan, the increasing its stake in the land segment and acquisition of minority stake in Vale.
