I would like to welcome you today at this meeting, and I would like to deliver to you the results for the year 2025. That was a very good year for the bank. We reached almost BRL 3.1 billion net profit, thanks to revenues on the base -- on the level of EUR 8.2 billion. So these are the record results in the history of the bank, and also the level of profit in our opinion is highly satisfactory. And the bank noted the growth, both in terms of the credit volumes and deposit volumes. I will move to this in a moment in greater detail. The effect of those revenues and the careful management costs was translated into the return on capital on the level of 18.7%. So it means about the capital cost and cost of revenues is 41% to 42%, so noting the drop of 2 percentage points on a year-to-year basis. So it means that the bank improved its efficiency and profitability. If we have a look at volumes, the credit volumes in all segments increased by 6%. So it means that the bank was growing in this category. The same is with the deposits 8% growth. The bank is very liquid. And we noted also last year the drop of interest margin by 9 percentage points, which was the result of the drops of the interest rate. And the bank's portfolio is performing well. This is a portfolio of high quality. The risk cost did not reached even 20 basis points. So this is our tradition to keep the risk costs on the very low level. And I have already mentioned about the increase of revenues of 5.6% thanks to the dynamics of the revenues and also from the commercial activities from the credit activities. Last year was a much better year in terms of the risk cost, legal risk cost. So they still kind of affect the bank's results, BRL 673 million reserves for the legal risk related to the Franco credits, but there are declining trends that we observed. But this is this phenomenon that will be accompanying the sector for sometime, the 30% is the increase of net profit. And of course, the efficiency was improved. The capital situation of the bank is very safe and comfortable. All the ratios, they increased the regulatory minimum, the TCR and Tier 1 the drops of the -- the result was the increase of the credit volumes and lower activity of the risk-weighted assets. So the recombination of the bank's Management Board is that 50% of the net profit should be -- from last year should be allocated to dividends and dividend per share will amount to [indiscernible] and the date of dividend is 23rd April and the dividend payout is the 11th of May. The bank noted in the period till the end of March, positive trend. As for the value of its shares, you can see the performance of the shares on the graph. The shares were increasing more than the banking big. So this is a result of our good results and also the strategy Accelerate 2030, which was adopted by the market very well. And also, we can mention the shares in trading represent 25%. An the rest of the shares is held by our strategic shareholders, BNP Paribas S.A. and BNP Paribas Fortis. Last year, we finished the strategy Go Beyond. And this strategy we adopted in 2022 and it led us through all these years. And we exceeded our financial goals, the key targets that we set under this strategy. And I will not maybe discuss the fulfillment of a specific target, but you can see that both the return on capital and also the cost-to-income ratio or the share of the sustainable financing, they proved to be on a very much better level than we assumed in the strategy. Also last year, the bank paid out the dividend, which we anticipate. It's also in our strategy. Then moving forward, what is ahead of us, what is the respect to? So you know that we live in the world, which is quite uncertain and that we may encounter many events, unpredictable events. One of them is the situation in the Middle East. So the bank is very well prepared to function in these unstable conditions, we can react quickly and swiftly to the market conditions. And we are ready to, of course, accept new phenomenon including also those that we cannot anticipate now. So the interest rates were dropping down from 5.75% to 3.75%, so it means by 2% because of the situation in the near East and the risk of inflation. This cycle of lowering will be stopped, but we will function in this environment of lower interest rates than before. We are optimistic as for the Polish economy, which is developing fast and efficiently, and we hope that the energy crisis will not be long term, and we assume that the [indiscernible] will increase about 3%. And of course, there are challenges and they will always be with us that the banking sector should cope with and also our bank is facing them. So this is the environment of low interest rate. The risks, legal risks also those which you cannot anticipate today related to high level of consumer protection new technologies that we think about more as a chance to us than threat, but late development of AI, of course, changes the reality, and we hope that this change will be for the better. On the 10th of December, we announced our new strategy. We named it Accelerate 2030. And I would like to give the key assumptions of this strategy. We build this strategy around 3 pillars: Expand, streamline and impact. It's hard to find the polish equivalents to these words. As for the first pillar expand, we talk about the increase of our customer base, namely as for the customers who are regular customers. We would like to deepen the customers' experience to concentrate on the customers' service and quality of it. As for the streamline, so the concentration on high efficiency through adopting the technologies, which will help us to lower the service costs. And impact, it means that we will continue what we have been doing before, what we trust in, it means supporting our customers in running the activities in sustainable way, responsible way, in line with the world standards. So these are the ambitions to increase of the customers' base by 1 million net retail customers by 2030. Increase in the corporate credit market for small and new size enterprises 10%, 8.3% in the last year. And then for the improvement of efficiency measured by cost-to-income ratio, which would grow below 38%. Then keeping the return on equity index as it was in 2025. We believe that this route index will be 22% in 2030. And also fueling our customers, retail and corporate customers with different scale of financing, sustainable financing for the total value of [indiscernible] 25 billion. And our ambition is that the level of the dividend pay held in 2030 amounts to 75%. And this is all what I wanted to say about our last year. And thank you very much for your attention.
