Okay. Thanks, everyone, for joining us back after lunch. We’re going to keep this lively so that nobody goes into the proverbial as we call in the U.S., the food coma and make sure that we can really get some good insights here from Cadence.
So before I get into talking to Richard Gu, who is the VP of IR at Cadence, I’d like to read the disclaimer that today’s discussion will contain forward-looking statements, including Cadence’s outlook on future business and operating results. Due to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those projected or implied in today’s discussion. Everyone understand that? Good.

I used to remember it as Cadence design. That shows how far back I go.

Vice President of Investor Relations
