WEBVTT 00:00:00.520 -- 00:00:05.304 Welcome and thank you for joining HEG's interim results for fiscal year 25. 00:00:05.304 -- 00:00:07.226 I will 00:00:07.226 -- 00:00:12.830 be covering some highlights to start out, then our director of IR, Becky Edelman, 00:00:12.830 -- 00:00:17.715 will cover the financials, and then I'll conclude looking at some of the strategic things 00:00:17.715 -- 00:00:20.597 that we've been working on and our outlook. 00:00:20.597 -- 00:00:25.681 We're also joined today by Sarah Highfield, who's our new CFO, but as this is literally 00:00:25.681 -- 00:00:31.013 day one for her, she'll be more in observation mode for today. 00:00:31.013 -- 00:00:32.555 So 00:00:32.555 -- 00:00:36.176 if you want to go to the highlights page, please. 00:00:37.880 -- 00:00:43.547 So I'm going to go through the highlights, but first at an overarching level, a few things 00:00:43.547 -- 00:00:49.033 to call out.

And so relative 00:01:14.807 -- 00:01:18.352 to the market, we feel very good about where we've been performing. 00:01:18.352 -- 00:01:24.101 The other thing, to call out is that the measures we use to judge our competitiveness 00:01:24.101 -- 00:01:28.266 are also up.
