Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Boralex's second quarter results conference call. On today's call, Patrick Decote, our President and Chief Executive Officer, will provide an update of our business. Afterwards, Bruno Guillemette, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, will present the financial highlights of the quarter. Then we will be available to answer your questions. During this call, we will discuss historical as well as forward-looking information. When talking about the future, there are a variety of risk factors that have been listed in our different filings, which can materially change our estimated results. These documents are all available for consultation on CDAR. Mr. Ducasse will now start with his comments. Please go ahead, Patrick.

Thank you, Colin, and good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. Before we start, I would like to take some time to highlight the other announcements we made this morning. First, I would like to sincerely thank Bruno Gilmette for his outstanding contributions over the past seven years as our CFO. Bruno has played a key role in shaping our strong financial foundation, helping us double in size and hit major milestones. Under his leadership, the company completed several transactions and financings, including the sale to energy infrastructure partner EIP of a stake of 30% in Boralec's operating assets and development project in France. We will miss him. Why we will miss him? We are in great end with Stéphane Milot stepping in during the interim period. Stéphane has a strong financial background and solid experience in different finance and IR role he played in the past 30 years. He has worked closely with Bruno in the past years and knows our business inside out. Bruno, thank you for everything and good luck for your new professional challenges.
