Good morning, and welcome to this release of our Q1 2024, a quarter that is the continuation from our 2023 year progress overall. And thanks also here, again, to our stakeholders across from support throughout the first quarter of this year, and therefore, keeping momentum towards the remaining part of 2024.

So with that, let's go to the key highlights of first quarter. So we had a revenue of EUR 2.7 billion. It's a small decline of 5% year-on-year, driven by lower activity in Power Solutions, partly offset by a 12% growth in the service business. The EBIT margin ended at minus 2.5%. Disregarding the sales of the technology in Q1 2023, EBIT improved year-on-year due to the higher project profitability, as we will talk more about. The order intake in Q1 was 2.3 gigawatts. The order intake declined by 30% year-on-year, partly also due to the very strong finish in 2023 in Q4.

Solid capital structure. We improved earnings, and they are the main driver for a leverage of 1.1x
