Thank you, Marta, and thanks to everyone for joining us today. Let me start by addressing our outlook for 2026. In light of recent developments and greater visibility in key business drivers, we have revised our expectations for the full year. I will provide the strategic context and Javier will then take you to the detailed financials. Let me continue what we have seen in the business during the first quarter of 2026. Operating revenues reached 152.5 million euros, representing a 1.5% decrease compared to the first quarter of 2025, mainly due to the performance of the Hebraic division. The contract manufacturing business continued to perform well, growing by 5% during the period. Gross profit increased by 5% to 95 million, reflecting an improvement in the gross margin of 3.8 percentage points to 62.3%. Based on recent developments, we have updated our outlook for 2026 and now expect operating revenue to increase by a low to mid single-digit percentage compared to 2025. I will walk through the key drivers behind this revision over the course of the presentation. Before moving on, I would also like to highlight the full integration of our PHOENIX facility as of April 1st, which strengthens our U.S. manufacturing footprint and CDMO capabilities. Moving on to the Specialty Pharmaceutical Business, It declined 3% year-on-year in the first quarter due to the viperine. Within this segment, growth was driven by okedi, hospital products, nepargis, and enoxaparin biosimilar. I would now like to focus on the performance of the heparin business, a key area that accounted for approximately 40% of the group's operating revenues in the first quarter of the year. The heparin division decreased 12%, mainly due to lower bimeparin sales driven by high inventory levels from international partners. This was partly offset by a 2% increase in enoxaparin biosimilar sales, supported by higher order volumes in certain markets. The performance of the heparin business may exhibit significant quarter-to-quarter variability, depending on the timing of orders and inventory levels held by our partners. International sales of hemiparin have shown a weak performance in the first quarter of 2026. However, for the full year we anticipate a more moderate decline. Regarding low molecular weight heparin sales, We expect them to decline by a high single-digit percentage in 2026, reflecting lower order volumes from international partners and an increased pricing pressure in the market, particularly from Chinese players. In response, we are firing cost-efficiency initiatives and continuing our progress toward vertical integration and close heparin self-sufficiency. Turning now to Okedi, the product remains a key growth driver, with sales of 17.2 million, up 37% year-to-year, and a further 10% growth versus the fourth quarter of 2025, which was the strongest quarter of last year. its differentiated clinical profile continues to support a strong uptake and we remain excited to reach potential sales of between 100 to 200 million in coming years. Moving on to our CMO business, the customer manufacturing business delivered positive performance during the quarter with revenue increasing by 5% to 37.4 million in the first quarter of 2026. However, based on the most recent information available, we have revised our expectations for the CDMO business for 2026, reflecting a more moderate growth scenario. This adjustment is driven by lower revenues forecast under the pre-search manufacturing agreement with a global pharmaceutical company announced in April 2024, mainly due to a delay in the initially expected commencement of routine manufacturing operations, as well as increased uncertainty regarding anticipated demand. We believe this is a conscious and responsible adjustment, one that reflects the current moment and that we will continue to reassess as the year progresses. Importantly, this adjustment does not change our long-term view of the CMO Division. We remain committed to our investment plan to strengthen and sterilize fill-and-finish capabilities. with ongoing capacity expansions and the recent integration on the Phoenix facility into our industrial network. Robi is very well positioned to capture long-term opportunities in high-value injectable manufacturing. Finally, our ISEM platform continues to progress well. Let us all see it has received FDA approval of its investigational new drug application, which allows the initiation of clinical development in the U.S. with Phase III recruitment expected to start in the third quarter of 2026. Cisperidone-Quart delivered a strong Phase I resource and is advancing into Phase III. Together, these programs reinforce the long-term value and innovation potential of ISM technology. Thank you very much, and I pass the floor to Javier. Thank you, Juan. Good morning, everyone, and I will now turn to the financial performance. Total revenues reached €154.7 million, broadly flat year-on-year. Operating revenues declined 1.5% to €152.5 million, mainly reflecting lower international sales of Bemi Powering. This was partly offset by TDMO business, which increased 5% during the quarter. I will now walk you through the reminder of our P&L. So gross profit increased by 5% to 95 million euros in the first quarter of 2026, with gross margin improving by 3.8 percentage points to 62.3%, largely reflecting the recognition of R&D grant income related to the Liossolid project. Excluding other income, gross margin increased by 2.5 percentage points to 60.8%, mainly driven by a higher contribution from Oceti, lower low molecular weight heparin raw material costs, and the growth of the contract manufacturing business. which contributed higher margins to the group revenues. SG&A increased 18% to 63.6 million euros in the first quarter of this year, mainly reflecting higher personal costs due to the wage adjustments and the addition of CDMO personnel, as well as higher other operating expenses. The increase in other operating expenses, excluding R&D, was partially driven by a lower cost base in the first quarter of 2025, following the temporary closure of the Madrid facility to upgrade Annex 1 GMP requirements for sterile manufacturing, and by non-recurring items, mainly related to the write-off of assets that are no longer operational. excluding non-recurring items, other operating expenses, again excluding R&D, increased by 21% year-on-year. For 2026, ROGI expects SENA expenses, in this case excluding Royce Phoenix from the group, to increase by between a mid to high single-digit percentage, compared to 2025. As for the R&D expenses, These increased by 79% to 11.2 million in the first quarter of this year. These expenses are related to the preparation for the development of the phase three clinical trial of letrozole SIE. Moving to EBITDA, EBITDA net profit. EBITDA totaled 20.3 million euros in this first quarter of 26 with a margin of 13.3%. EBIT amounted to 12.1 million in the first quarter of 26 with a margin of 8% while net profit reached 9.4 million euros in the same period. I won't go into slide 15 in detail. You have the figures and that was And we can move to the next slide, please. So let's now move to CAPEX and cash generation. In the first quarter of 2026, Rovi invested 7.7 million euros allocated as follows. 5.6 million dedicated to investments and 2.1 million euros allocated to maintenance capex and other items. Turning to cash flow, operating cash flow came in at 13 million euros in the first quarter, reflecting two main factors. Lower profit before tax compared to the prior year and adverse working capital movement. Free cash flow amounted to 5.6 million euros in the first quarter of 26. As of March 31st, 2026, Robby's total debt amounted to 114.4 million euros with gross cash of 99.6 million euros, resulting in a net debt position of 14.9 million. This solid financial position is fully compatible with our shareholder remuneration policy under which we target a 35% payout of consolidated net profit and will propose therefore to the general shareholders meeting a 0.9594 per share dividend, euro per share dividend to be charged against 2025 results and distributable reserves. To conclude, I would like to summarize our outlook for 26 and the key strategic drivers. Based on the current evolution of the key business variables and the most recent information available, Roving has updated its guidance and now expects operating revenue to grow by low to mid single digit compared to 2025 reflecting a more moderate growth scenario than previously communicated. This update is mainly driven by lower revenue forecast for 26 under the prefilled syringe manufacturing agreement entered into with affordable pharmaceutical company announced in April 24 due to a delay in the initially expected commencement of routine manufacturing operations which remains subject to the regulatory authorization as well as an increase in certainty regarding anticipated demand. In addition, we continue to see growing competitive pressure on pricing on the heparin division and greater volatility in supply and cost dynamics. Additionally, the heparin business performed better than expected in 2025 mainly due to an increase in orders from international partners. Therefore, we expect lower orders from these partners in 2026 since they hold a high level of stocks. Overall, we say that the company maintains a prudent approach to its 2026 outlook, reflecting the current competitive environment and the level of visibility across its main business lines, which will which we will continue to monitor closely. At the same time, our strategy remains focused on our key priorities on which we are focusing our efforts. The development and scaling of the CDMO business, value creation from the acquisition of injectable manufacturing facility in the US, progress in the vertical integration of the Hevering business, and the continued momentum of the specialty pharmaceutical segment with Ocadi as a key product. In parallel, we maintain a strongly committed warranty with two phase three clinical trials currently underway, Letrosol SIE and Risprison IV, supported by a clear focus on international expansion and execution excellence. This approach reinforce our roadmap roadmap and our positioning over the medium to long term. Thank you very much for your attention. We are now happy to take your questions. Marta.

If you want to ask any questions, please don't hesitate to send them to the question button on the platform. The first question comes from Pablo from . The first one is following the increased uncertainty around demand for the new prefilled sewage manufacturing agreement and the delay in the start of operations. What do you think is a reasonable assumption for 2027 revenues under this contract? Should we think about the minimum contractual commitments as the right baseline at this stage?
