All right, everybody. Why don't we get started with the next presentation. I'm Ross Seymore, U.S. semiconductor analyst here at Deutsche Bank. We're very honored to have the management of NXP Semiconductor up on stage with us; Kurt Sievers, the President and CEO; and then Bill Betz, the EVP and CFO.
So Kurt and Bill, thank you very much for coming.
Questions and Answers:
Ross Clark Seymore - Deutsche Bank AG, Research Division - MDI want to start off with some higher-level macro questions first and then we'll kind of narrow it down to the NXP specific ones. But in the semiconductor world, we've been going through a little bit of a challenging cyclical time but it's a little bit of a rolling cyclical correction. You guys, I think, as of late, talked about the second half being better than the first. Other companies are shaped differently than that. What gives you the confidence to have the second half better than the first?
