The minutes of the last annual meeting of shareholders held on April 1, 2025, are with me, and with the consent of the meeting, we will dispense with the reading of these minutes, and the minutes shall be taken as read. I am also tabling a copy of the audited, consolidated financial statements of Collier's for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the auditor's report there are. You will have received them with the meeting materials, and a copy is also available on CDAR+.
