WEBVTT 00:00:01.600 -- 00:00:06.107 Like I said, we've been busy, and I'm proud of what our people have been up to in the 00:00:06.107 -- 00:00:08.771 first half of the year. So let's get into it. 00:00:08.771 -- 00:00:12.356 I know you would have seen the statement this morning, and so Giles and I will cover 00:00:12.356 -- 00:00:17.184 three things. I'll share a brief introduction, just frame a bit of what we're up to, 00:00:17.184 -- 00:00:22.231 and then Giles will pull out some of the key themes from our performance in the first 00:00:22.231 -- 00:00:26.258 half, and then I'll give you an update on the strategy that we introduced to you back 00:00:26.258 -- 00:00:28.498 in June. 00:00:35.553 -- 00:00:39.640 So I'm pleased to report, as we saw on the slide, that we are on track with the execution 00:00:39.640 -- 00:00:44.207 of the strategy and on track with our guidance for the year. 00:00:44.207 -- 00:00:48.995 I'll go into each one of the four levers later on, but I also want to be clear that we 00:00:48.995 -- 00:00:53.202 still have some challenges that we're addressing, particularly with boots and sandals 00:00:53.202 -- 00:00:56.006 and with EMEA direct-to-consumer. 00:00:56.006 -- 00:00:59.144 Yet overall, we're doing what we said we would do. 00:00:59.144 -- 00:01:05.234 with good cash generation and cost control driving good financial progress. 00:01:05.234 -- 00:01:09.461 And as I will keep telling you, I'm laser-focused on execution, and the work we've done 00:01:09.461 -- 00:01:14.429 to date gives me confidence that we will deliver our four-year results as planned. 00:01:14.429 -- 00:01:19.554 Giles will go into more detail now on how we performed in that. 00:01:30.059 -- 00:01:34.226 Thank you EJ and good morning everyone. 00:01:34.226 -- 00:01:39....
