All right. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. And I'm glad to welcome you jointly with the management; and the Senior Independent Director of the Board of IAG, Patrick Cescau. And welcome to the IAG results presentation 2018.

So despite of all these headwinds, we have been able to report EUR 3,230 million operating profit, which is 9.5% up versus last year and with an increase in our adjusted EPS of 15.1%. Based on those airlines that have reported so far, we are the only major airline group on either side of Atlantic to have reported a high operating profit and a higher margin on 2018 compared to 2017. So the management team, led by Willie, deserve a very deep and very strong recognition.
