Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Tharisa plc investor presentation. [Operator Instructions] The company may not be in a position to answer every question received during the meeting itself. However, the company can review all questions submitted today and publish responses where it’s appropriate to do so on the Investor Meet Company platform.
Before we begin, as usual, we would like to submit the following poll. And if you could give that your kind attention, I’m sure the company would be most grateful. And I’d now like to hand you over to CEO, Phoevos Pouroulis. Good morning, sir.

CEO & Director
Good morning, and welcome everyone, to this half year results presentation for our financial year 2026. With me today in the room is our CFO, Michael Jones; and CFO designate, Jacques Breytenbach, who will be taking over from Michael from the 1st of August, as Michael enters his retirement.
So really starting off with our intent and purpose statement of redefining resources, innovating with purpose and empowering futures. And we’ll unpack those 3 pillars during the course of this morning. This is our agenda for the day, running through predominantly the financial highlights for the half year, but really touching on what we’re doing beyond just mining and looking into our Vision 2030 and our strategy around commercializing some of these innovative initiatives.
I’d like to take a moment now to share a video that’s been created by our team that spans across South Africa and Zimbabwe. So Jacques, over to you, if you could share that video. Thank you.
