Thank you, operator. Welcome to the Q2 2025 conference call for 2020 Bulkers. My name is Lars-Christian Svensson, and I'm joined here today by our CFO, Vidar Hasen. Before we begin the presentation, I would like to remind you that we will be discussing matters that are forward-looking. These statements reflect the company's current views regarding future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated. And with that, I will now proceed with the highlights of the quarter. We reported a net profit of $5.8 million and an EBITDA of $9.6 million. Earnings per share was $0.25 for the second quarter. The gross time chart for equivalent earnings for the quarter were approximately $29,700 per day, including gains on realized forward freight agreements. We declared a total of 37 cents in dividends for the months of April until June 2025. The dry docks for Bulk Sao Paulo and Bulk Santos were completed at a total cost of $2.6 million, which completes the company's dry dock commitments. We also realized a gain on FFA of $1.4 million for Q2 2025. In subsequent events, we entered into hedging transactions through FFAs, securing an average fixed rate of approximately $33,700 per day for two of our six vessels from 1st of August until 31st of December 2025. We announced this morning an achieved time charter equivalent of about $31,700 per day and a dividend payout of 15 cents per share for the month of July. And with that, I will now pass the floor to Vidal.
