We'll get going here as people waltz in. Right. Thank you. Thank you all for coming. Thanks for being here for Kimberly-Clark. I'm Ali Dibadj, Bernstein's U.S. household, personal products, U.S. beverages and snacks analyst. It's great to see so many familiar faces, and we're just chatting about this with Paul on the Kimberly-Clark team that attendance continues to grow here. So it's because of great companies like you guys. Mike Hsu, Maria Henry from Kimberly-Clark, the CEO and CFO. We're so pleased to have you here.
