Operator: Good day, and welcome to the Second Quarter and Half Year 2026 Materialise NV Financial Results Conference Call. [Operator Instructions] Please note, this call may be recorded. I would now like to turn the call over to Jody Burfening, Alliance Advisors Investor Relations. Please go ahead.

Jody Burfening: Thank you, Michelle, and thank you, everyone, for joining us today for Materialise's quarterly conference call. With us on the call are Brigitte de Vet-Veithen, Chief Executive Officer; and Koen Berges, Chief Financial Officer. Today's call and webcast are being accompanied by a slide presentation that reviews Materialise's strategic financial and operational performance for the second quarter and first half of 2026. To access the slides, if you have not already done so, please go to the Investor Relations section of the company's website at The earnings press release that was issued earlier today can also be found on that page.

Before we get started, I'd like to remind you that management may make forward-looking statements regarding the company's plans, expectations and growth prospects, among other things. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed, including competitive dynamics and industry change. Any forward-looking statements, including those related to the company's future results and activities, represent management's estimates as of today and should not be relied upon as representing their estimates as of any subsequent day. Management disclaims any duty to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect future events or changes in expectations.

A more detailed description of the risks and uncertainties and other factors that may impact the company's future business or financial results can be found in the company's most recent report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC. Finally, management will discuss certain non-IFRS measures on today's conference call. A reconciliation table is contained in the earnings release and at the end of the slide presentation. With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Brigitte. Good morning, Brigitte.

Brigitte de Vet-Veithen: Good morning, and good afternoon. Thank you, everyone, for joining us today. You can find the agenda for our call on Slide 3. First, I will summarize the business highlights for the second quarter of 2026. Then I will pass the floor to Koen, who will take you through the second quarter and half year financials. Finally, I will come back and explain what we expect the remaining months of 2026 to bring. When we've completed our prepared remarks, we'll be happy to respond to questions. Moving to Slide 4 for the highlights of the second quarter 2026. I'd like to open by drawing your attention to our first half year report now available on our Investor Relations website.
