Thank you. Dear shareholders, our RFID and supply chain businesses did very well in the first quarter of the year. The backlog of our supply chain continued to grow in the first quarter of the year. The growth attributed mainly to the expansion of our supply chain businesses Our RFID business performance in the first quarter of the year was outstanding and above expectations. It is mainly attributed to the cost reduction we started to implement in the first quarter this year, and it will be fully reflected in the second quarter. Our primary and most crucial challenge for the year 20 is to make significant penetration of our robotic business to the U.S. market, our strategic market, with the highest potential for our robotic business. To achieve that target, me and the robotic team invest enormous efforts to support our US Health Office. It is not an easy task, especially with the current situation of the corona in the U.S., but we need to complete this mission by the end of this year. Let's complete my financial review, business review, and now I will take your question. Thank you.
