Following our prepared comments, we will conduct a question and answer session with our team. During this time, to give more participants an opportunity to speak on this call, please limit yourself to one initial question and one follow-up. Also note that while Ahmed is participating on today's call, he is not going to be participating in the Q&A session. and thus please direct your questions to the other members of the team. Thank you very much. I'll now turn the call over to Julian.

Thank you, Lex. I would like to send my warm welcome to our investors, analysts, and employees who are participating on today's call. This morning, I will provide a brief update on our business and then review our progress and our strategic objectives. Following my remarks, Manu will discuss our financial performance for the fourth quarter and then I will discuss our outlook for fiscal 24. Before we begin our discussion on the fourth quarter results, I'd like to spend a few moments addressing the announcement we made a few weeks ago. Manu has decided to step down as CFO of Fluence. He has done a remarkable turnaround job here, and as a result, he caught the attention of others. He received an offer he could not refuse, and more importantly, one that we could not match. At such, he will be leaving effective December 31st to become CFO of another company in a different industry. On behalf of the board, I would like to send a sincere thank you to Manu for the value he helped create at Fluence the past 15 months. Additionally, I would like to send a warm welcome to Ahmed Pasha, our incoming CFO. Ahmed will officially assume this role on January 1st, thus ensuring a sufficient transition period. Ahmed comes to us from AES, where he had a 30-year career, most recently serving as the CFO of the Utility Business Unit. I personally have worked with Ahmed for many years, and I am excited to continue that affluence. Now I would like to turn the call over to Ahmed to make a few remarks.
