Thomas Glanzmann
Thank you, Nuria, and thank you everyone for joining the call today. Before we turn to the specifics of our business performance, financials and full year '23 guidance, I would like to make some introductory comments. Over the past few months, we had the opportunity after many years to meet in person with more than 80 investors and 60 investment houses in London and New York, addressing questions and concerns about performance, debt, governance, and whether any fundamental changes will be made directionally at the company of the plans that had been laid out.
For me and the management team, these meetings were of great value and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all participants for their honest and often very direct feedback, which was much appreciated. We have indeed taken note of what we heard and were told. In light of that, I would also like to take this opportunity to reiterate my key messages from these meetings.
