Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Appen’s First Half FY ’25 Results Webinar. My name is Sam Wells from NWR, and joining me from the company today is CEO and Managing Director, Ryan Kolln; as well as Chief Financial Officer, Justin Miles.

Following a brief summary of the results released to the ASX this morning, we will have some time for Q&A from the management team. There will be a choice of 2 options. First, research analysts will be able to raise your hand via Zoom should you wish to ask a verbal question or we’ll take written submitted question via the Q&A function at the bottom of your screen. We will endeavor to get to the majority of questions asked; in some cases, combining questions on the same or similar topic.

And with that, I’ll pass it over to you, Ryan.
