Haleon plc

good morning, or thank you for joining us for the Haleon 2024 half-year results Q&A. My name is Carly, and I'll be coordinating the call today. During the presentation, you can register a question by pressing star followed by one on your telephone keypad, and to remove yourself from that line of questioning, it's star followed by two. I'll now hand over to our host, Sonia Gabriel, to begin. Please go ahead.

Thanks very much. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Halion's half-year 2024 Q&A conference call. I'm Sonia Gabriel, Head of Investor Relations, and I'm joined this morning by Brian McNamara, our Chief Executive Officer, and Tobias Hessler, our Chief Financial Officer. Just to remind listeners on the call that in the discussions today, the company may make certain forward-looking statements, including those that refer to our estimates, plans, and expectations. Please refer to this morning's announcement and the company's UK and SEC filings for more details, including factors that could lead to actual results that differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. We've posted today's presentation on the website this morning with prepared remarks and a video running through the results in detail. So hopefully you've all had the chance to see that ahead of this call. With that, we'll go straight to opening the call with Q&A from my last time. Thank you. Operator, if you want to give us the first question, please.

Of course. First question comes from Guillaume Damas of UBS.
