Thank you, Operator. Welcome, everyone. This is Skip Miller, Vice President of Investor Relations at ASML. Joining me today on the call are ASML CEO Christophe Fouquet and our CFO, Roger Dawson. The subject of today's call is ASML's 2024 third quarter results. The length of this call will be 60 minutes, and the questions will be taken in the order that they are received. This call is also being broadcast live over the Internet at asml.com. A transcript of management's opening remarks and a replay of the call will be available on our website shortly following the conclusion of this call. Before we begin, I'd like to caution listeners that comments made by management during this conference call will include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements involve material risks and uncertainties. For a discussion of risk factors, I encourage you to review the safe harbor statement contained in today's press release and the presentation found on our website at asml.com and in the ASML's annual report on Form 20F and other documents as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to Christophe Bouquet for a brief introduction.

Thank you, Steve. Welcome, everyone, and thank you for joining us for our third quarter 2024 Results Conference call. First, let me apologize for the confusion yesterday after the early publication of our press release due to a technical error. Particularly given the serious nature of the key messages we wanted to deliver and discuss with you, this was very unfortunate. Before we begin the Q&A session, Roger and I would like to provide an overview and some commentaries on the third quarter 2024, as well as provide some additional comments on the current business environment and on our future business outlook. Roger?
