Thank you and good morning, dear analysts and investors. Welcome to the Uniper Interim results call for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. Thank you for participating in our conference call today. I would also like to welcome our new CEO, Klaus-Dieter Maubach, and our new CFO, Tina Tuomela, who will lead you through the presentation today. After a joint introduction, Klaus-Dieter will take over the main highlights of the first quarter before Tina guides you through the financials. Right after the presentation, you will have the chance to raise your questions. Having said that, Klaus-Dieter and Tina, the floor is yours.

Thank you, Stefan. Good morning, everyone, and a warm welcome also from our side. I'm Klaus-Dieter Maubach, the new CEO at Uniper, and with me is Tina Turmela, our new CFO. We are pleased to to introduce ourselves to you today in our new roles. Some of you may still remember me from my E.ON times, during which I held various board of management positions between 2001 and 2013, the last one as E.ON board member responsible for technology and major projects. However, most importantly, I'm not new to the Unico world. Having served as Uniper's Supervisory Board Chair and a board member of the Fortum Group, I'm familiar with both organizations. This puts me in a good position to drive strategy implementation at Uniper while ensuring that our affiliation with the Fortum Group is clearly an asset in this context. Before I move on, please, Tina, a few words from you.
