Welcome and thanks for your participation in 00:00:05.833 -- 00:00:10.298 our today's conference call about the first nine months, 2024. 00:00:10.298 -- 00:00:15.325 Our board members, Thorsten Derr and Thomas Dippelt, will give you 00:00:15.325 -- 00:00:20.731 a detailed overview about our business development and, in particular, 00:00:20.731 -- 00:00:24.636 a focus on the semiconductor market segment. 00:00:24.636 -- 00:00:28.121 Then I directly hand over to Thomas 00:00:28.121 -- 00:00:30.524 Dippelt.
