To open this video conference, I now turn the floor over to Mr. de Queiroz, CEO. Good morning, and thank you for participating in the Minerva Foods video conference to present the results for Q3 2023. At the end of the first nine months of 2023, Minerva has delivered a solid set of operational and financial results, which attest to the consistency and discipline of our business strategy. Our focus on operational execution, our commercial expertise, and arbitrage capabilities were fundamental to the quarter's performance to strengthen our corporate strategy and consolidate Minerva Foods' leadership on the continent. In Q3, our gross revenue totaled approximately BRL 7.6 billion. EBITDA was BRL 714 million, and net income was BRL 141 million. LTM, the results were very solid, with approximately BRL 29 billion in gross revenue, adjusted EBITDA totaling approximately BRL 2.7 billion, and accumulated net income of BRL 350 million. We also did well in terms of free cash generation. If we exclude the impact of the acquisitions of ALC and BPU, the company generated BRL 803 million in the quarter, BRL 1.2 billion LTM, thus contributing to a balanced capital structure, which remains stable. At the end of the quarter, net leverage was 2.8x net debt over EBITDA. Before we move on to a more detailed discussion about this quarter's results, I would like to share with you a little bit more information about the recent acquisition of some of Marfrig's assets in South America. In August, we announced to the market the acquisition of 16 of Marfrig's industrial plants in South America, including 15 cattle slaughtering and deboning plants and one sheep plant. These assets are distributed across Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile. After the consolidation phase, they will increase our slaughter capacity by 42% for cattle and 34% for sheep. This move is closely aligned with our business strategy. After completion and approval of the legal procedures, the acquisition of Marfrig's assets in South America, and the recent completion of the acquisition of BPU in Uruguay, will contribute to enhance our business strategy by expanding our geographic footprint, by unlocking operational and commercial synergies, and by maximizing our ability to arbitrage. Our management remains extremely committed to completing this process and subsequently to integrating the new assets over the next few quarters. Let's now talk about our performance in Q3. As I always do in our video conferences, before we move on to the highlights of the quarter, I want to share a little bit about our vision regarding the outlook for the global animal protein market. This market remains very promising, with a very positive outlook for South American players. The continued increase in the availability of finished animals in our continent, together with the constraints in North American beef supplies, continue to afford opportunities for South American exporters. Additionally, there are persistent sanitary and climate difficulties in some of the main animal protein-producing regions in the world. This is expected to deteriorate even further because of El Niño. Climate problems in our sector generate volatility throughout the agribusiness chain, but thanks to our geographic diversification strategy, this gives us several arbitrage opportunities in the global animal protein market. Our strategy towards geographic diversification allowed us to build a unique manufacturing compound with unique arbitrage capabilities, thus mitigating risks. From a demand perspective, we remain confident, given the gradual recovery of the Chinese market and the local economy. Together with the supply shock in the North American beef production and the beginning of a recovery in the Brazilian domestic market, we should have excellent commercial opportunities over the coming periods. We thus have a scenario that should allow South American producers to tap new opportunities. One of the examples is the recent permit to export Colombian beef to the Chinese market, and we should see other new permits materializing over the next few months. Let's move now to slide 2, and we are going to talk about the highlights of the quarter. Gross revenue totaled BRL 7.6 billion in Q3, and approximately BRL 29 billion LTM. Exports accounted for 64% of our consolidated gross revenue, both in the quarter and LTM. This is one of the company's main commercial drivers, testament to our commercial expertise in serving the international market. In terms of operational profitability, EBITDA in Q3 was BRL 714 million, with an EBITDA margin of 10.1%, while in the last twelve months, Minerva Foods' EBITDA was BRL 2.6 billion, with a margin of 9.3%. I also want to highlight our EBITDA, adjusted by the ALC and BPU pro forma, which totaled BRL 2.7 billion on an annual basis. As a result of this good operational and financial performance, our net income was BRL 141 million in Q3, a 17% increase as compared with the last quarter, totaling approximately BRL 350 million LTM. I also want to highlight our free cash generation, which was positive at BRL 608 million in Q3. When adjusted for the impact of the acquisition of ALC and BPU, it totaled over BRL 1.2 billion LTM. Finally, in terms of our capital structure, we ended the third quarter with a stable adjusted net leverage at 2.8x net debt over EBITDA, and a comfortable liquidity level with a cash position of BRL 10.5 billion. On slide 3, we are going to see all the highlights of the quarter. As I said in the beginning of our video conference, at the beginning of August, in a move aligned with our long-term strategy, we announced the acquisition of selected assets from Marfrig South America, including 16 slaughter units and one distribution center in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, for a total investment of BRL 7.5 billion. Once approved by the regulatory authorities, these assets will become part of our operational footprint. Also, in this quarter, we completed the acquisition of BPU in Uruguay, thus expanding our investment in the country and maximizing the arbitrage capability of our industrial compound. Another major highlight of the period was the recent announcement by the Colombian government regarding the approval of the sanitary protocol for the export of Colombian beef to the Chinese market. The bureaucratic procedures required for the effective qualification of production units are expected to be completed by the end of 2023. Minerva Foods owns two slaughter plants in the country and is the leader in beef exports from Colombia. Additionally, in the next few weeks, we should see the approval of Paraguay for exporting to North America. Minerva is also a leader in Paraguay and is the largest exporter, so the opening of the North American market is good news for us in terms of our diversification as regards destinations. We continue to advance our sustainability agenda, especially the geographic monitoring of supplier farms. In Uruguay, we now monitor more than 40% of our direct suppliers. The highlight were our results in the audits carried out by the Federal Public Prosecution Office, the most prominent and reliable verification body of Brazilian production chains. Minerva Foods achieved 100% in terms of social and environmental compliance in the states of Pará, Mato Grosso, and Rondônia, which attests to our leadership and pioneering spirits in monitoring the production chain. I would also like to highlight the evolution of the Renove program, which continues to develop new lines of certified carbon-neutral programs, products. This is a fundamental initiative in our relentless pursuit of a more productive and efficient livestock chain, which is more sustainable and with low carbon emissions. In slide 4, we start by showing our exports. In Q3, we remained in the lead in beef exports from South America, with approximately 20% of the continent's market share, which attests to the success of our geographic diversification, one of the main competitive advantages of our business model. On the right-hand side of the slide, you'll see the breakdown of our gross revenue for Q3. The Americas region was the main driver of gross revenue and accounts for 40%, Brazil with 19%, and Chile with 11%. Then the Asian continent with 26% of the total gross revenue, with China alone accounting for 19%. As I said in the beginning, we remain confident about the performance of the Asian market over the coming periods, as a result of the recovery of the Chinese economy and the depletion of the level of local beef protein inventories. These inventories should come under increasing pressure because of the acceleration of local consumption and in view of the constraints in the global beef supplies. On the bottom right corner of the slide, you see more details about the performance of our exports for both our beef operations here in South America and our lamb operations in Australia. Starting with the two graphs on the upper part of the slide, our beef operations, Asia continues to stand out both in the quarter and in the annualized period, and accounts for 38% and 43% of export revenue, respectively, respectively. The Americas region comes next, with approximately 22% in the quarter and 20% LTM, followed by CIS, NAFTA, and Middle Eastern customers. In the lower part of the slide, you see the breakdown of exports from our Australian operations in Q3, with the NAFTA region being the main destination and accounting for 38% of the total exports, followed by Asia with 26% and the Middle East with 17%. Before giving the floor to Edison, I would like to highlight again our optimism with the global animal protein market. The outlook in the international market remains very promising, and the strong imbalance between supply and demand continues to afford good opportunities, both in markets of scale and rapid income growth, such as the Asian countries, and in premium markets such as Canada, the U.S., and Western Europe. We also have good prospects in Latin America, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, and Africa. These regions traditionally present greater volatility and therefore great opportunities for arbitrage and value maximization. Our strategy is to continue to execute on our business model, to explore our competitive advantages, invest in innovation, niche opportunities, risk management, to achieve increasingly efficient and profitable commercial and logistical solutions, with a strong focus on generating value for our entire chain of stakeholders. I now turn the floor over to Edison, who's going to talk about our financial and operational performance. Thank you, Fernando. Moving on to slide 5, we'll start by talking about our operational performance and gross revenue for the quarter and for the year. In line with our focus on exports, foreign markets accounted for 65% of our gross revenue in the quarter and 66% LTM. In the breakdown by region, exports from Brazilian operations accounted for 68% in Q3 and 65% in LTM. In LATAM ex-Brazil, exports accounted for 62% of the gross revenue in the quarter and 67% LTM. In the lamb operation in Australia, exports accounted for 68% of the gross revenue at the end of Q3. On the right-hand side of the slide, you see the breakdown of revenue by origin. Brazil accounts for 50% of the gross revenue in the quarter and 47% LTM, followed by Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay, with about 12% both in the quarter and LTM. Australia followed suit and accounted for 7% of the gross revenue in Q3, and Colombia with 3%, then others with 4%, which refers to the former trading division. On slide 6, you will see the net revenue, which reached BRL 7.1 billion in Q3 and BRL 28 billion LTM. In terms of profitability, EBITDA in the quarter was BRL 714 million, with a very positive margin of 10.1%, back to double digit levels. LTM, EBITDA totaled BRL 2.6 billion, with a margin of 9.3%. The adjusted EBITDA by the pro forma performance of ALC and BPU totaled BRL 2.7 billion in the last twelve months. As Fernando said, and I would like to endorse it, constraints in the U.S. beef supplies, together with the reversal of the livestock cycle, especially in Brazil, allows us to see a very positive outlook for our industry. We remain very confident about the prospects and opportunities in the global animal protein market for 2024 and 2025. Let's talk about financial leverage on slide seven. Our net leverage ratio measured as net debt over EBITDA for the last twelve months, and EBITDA was adjusted for the pro forma of ALC and BPU, remained stable as 2.8 times. In this indicator, net debt is not impacted by the down payment of BRL 1.5 billion related to the acquisition of Marfrig's assets in South America, as the acquisition has not been completed yet, and therefore, does not yet have an impact on the EBITDA. Therefore, we believe that this is the appropriate criterion to evaluate the net leverage. Just to be clear, the adjusted EBITDA reflects the organic performance of Minerva, plus BRL 31.1 million of ALC's EBITDA in the month prior to the consolidation, and BPU's EBITDA, which considers 11 months prior to the consolidation, and this gives an adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months of BRL 2.7 billion. On Slide 8, we are going to talk about our net income, which was approximately BRL 141 million, BRL 376 million in the first 9 months of this year. In the last 12 months, the company's net income was BRL 350 million, approximately. Moving on to the right-hand side of the slide, we can see the operating cash flow in the quarter, which was positive at BRL 1.2 billion, totaling BRL 2.8 billion positive LTM. I want to highlight here the two main lines that helped us with our Working Capital in the quarter. The line of accounts receivable from customers and other receivables, which returned approximately BRL 278 million to the cash position, and the line of other accounts payable, which contributed BRL 219 million. We all remember the difficulties experienced in the credit market at the beginning of 2023, which negatively impacted our performance in the Working Capital line, especially the suppliers line. Well, as we expected, the positive evolution in the credit market has allowed a gradual normalization of this scenario. We expect this movement to gain even more traction by year-end, as we had anticipated. On slide 9, we will see our Free Cash Flow. If we build up the cash flow this quarter, we start from an EBITDA of BRL 714 million, then CapEx of BRL 202 million, mainly for maintenance and some organic expansion of operations. Then we have the working capital line, which released BRL 581 million in the quarter, and the cash-based financial result, which was negative by BRL 290 million. Thus, the recurring cash generation was approximately BRL 803 million in Q3. If we subtract the BPU payment, which totaled BRL 195 million, we ended the quarter with a positive cash flow of BRL 608 million. In the last twelve months, free cash flow was negative by BRL 186 million. However, it includes all the impacts of the acquisition of ALC and BPU throughout the period. Doing the build-up, we started with an EBITDA of BRL 2.6 billion, CapEx of BRL 665 million, a positive working capital variation of BRL 674 million, and a cash-based financial result, which was negative by BRL 1.4 billion. The recurring free cash flow was one point two billion for the last twelve months, ending in September 2023. If we add the value of the acquisitions of ALC and BPU, we will have a negative cash flow of BRL 186 million. Also, the cash flow result for the last twelve months does not include the BRL 323 million in dividends we paid out in the period. Now, on slide 10, we will see the bridge of our net debt. At the end of the previous quarter, net debt was BRL 7.7 billion. Then we have the payment of early dividends totaling BRL 114 million, which increases our debt. We have the non-cash effect of BRL 86 million from derivatives, which reduced our debt, and then the non-cash impact of around BRL 348 million related to the exchange rate variation of the portion of our debt that is linked to foreign currency. Finally, we had a positive free cash flow of BRL 608 million, which reduces our debt level. We closed the quarter with a net debt of BRL 7.5 billion, approximately BRL 200 million lower than the previous period, even when we consider the payout of dividends and also the major impact of the non-cash variation of the exchange rate on our debt. This result demonstrates the great focus and commitment of our management to maximize free cash generation, which allows us to tap opportunities and also maintain a balanced capital structure. As I said before, net leverage was stable in the quarter at 2.8x. Following our cash policy, the position at the end of Q3 remained at a very comfortable level, with approximately BRL 10.5 billion, and includes recent issues, especially the 2033 bond, with the aim of financing the balance of the recent acquisition of Marfrig's asset. In terms of our debt profile, 70% of the debt is exposed to the exchange rate variation. I'd like to remind you that we have a hedging policy in place, which we follow to the letter. It determines that the company has to hedge at least 40% of our long-term foreign exchange exposure. The duration of our debt is five years, and as you can see in the amortization flow, the debt profile is very comfortable. Finally, I will comment a little bit on the liability management efforts that we have implemented over the last few years. In September, we issued a 2033 bond, totaling $1 billion with a coupon of 8.875%. In October, we issued the bonds for $ 2 billion in four series, all of which have been swapped to the CDI, pursuant to our commitment to maintaining a longer, more balanced and less costly capital structure. I would also like to highlight Fernando's comment regarding our acquisition of Marfrig's asset in South America. We are very confident in the completion of this process. We believe this is a unique opportunity for us, as it is clearly aligned to our business model. After the integration of the assets, we expect to capture operational and commercial synergies, which will contribute significantly to our operational and financial performance by expanding our ability to arbitrage markets and maximize the profitability of Minerva Foods. I'd like to give the floor now back to the operators, so we can start the Q&A session. Thank you very much. We will now begin the Q&A session. To ask a question in English, please use the Q&A icon, state your name and affiliation, and ask your question. Please wait while we collect the questions. The first question comes from Mr. Thiago Duarte, from BTG Pactual. Thank you very much. Thank you. Good morning, Fernando, Edison. Good morning to all. I would like to touch upon three points very briefly. First of all, I would like to confirm a reading, and it's the following: when we look at what has been happening with slaughtering and compare the slaughtering volumes between Brazil and other countries, so there has been more slaughtering in Brazil and a drop in volumes in the combined of the rest of South America or Latin America. This seems to be in line with what you traditionally do in terms of market arbitrage. So this makes me think that the margins in Brazil were a lot better than the margins in other countries, where we saw a major drop in production volumes. Is my understanding correct? And if this is the case, how do these margins compare throughout this last quarter between these two geographies in this quarter? Is this a trend that will continue in Q4? What is your take on that? And then I would like a little bit more color about something. Under others, other operating revenue, we had BRL 22 million, and there aren't any more details about this figure. So could you give us some more details about this figure? And lastly, when you made comments about the prospects relating to the final deal relating to the purchase of assets from Marfrig, can you give us an update on the time frames? Because that's extremely important, given the improvement of the cattle cycle in Brazil and whether the integration of these assets will be accelerated. Thank you, Thiago. Good morning. I'll take the first question. Yes, arbitrage is part of our DNA. Geographic diversification, the fact that we want to increase the diversification and grow the company in South America, this all helps us improve our arbitrage capabilities. You read it right. Margins were better in Brazil, for most of the quarter, and this then led us to arbitrage. There were also some climate problems in some countries relating, which had an impact on the availability of, cattle, and therefore, the volumes went down. But Brazil was, the highlight for the quarter. For Q4, we are always looking for arbitrage opportunities. Brazil is doing well. We are more optimistic in terms of domestic consumption. If you look at our sales in Brazil, they have increased relative to the previous quarter and to Q3 2022. Everybody is very surprised with these very good numbers, and the seasonality is going to help us in Q4. Would Fernando like to add anything? I think you're right. Arbitrage is carried out every week. We have surprises from other originations which become more competitive, but this is what we do. It's exactly as Edison described. As regards the BRL 22 million, it has to do with a reversal in the provisions made for freight. It goes back to EBITDA, because we deducted it before from the EBITDA, so it makes sense to return it to the EBITDA line. So then it makes no sense in adjusting it differently. It's not a relevant figure, but that's what it means. And then your third question was about the timeline for the Antitrust Commission to approve our deal with Marfrig. The CADE, the Brazilian Antitrust Authority, has a year to give an opinion. This would take us to October next year. We believe that in Brazil, this could happen in nine months, so June, July next year is a reasonable timeline, but we are working hard with the CADE to make it shorter. As you know, we think the cycle in Brazil is extremely positive for 2024. So the earlier we are able to start operating these plants, the better for us in terms of extracting value from the deal. We believe that a fair estimate is between June, July next year for Brazil. As regards Uruguay, we believe it could take up to a year, but we are working to bring it down to the same timeline as Brazil. In Argentina, Chile, things work faster, and this is also because of the size of our operations there. But the two factors are Brazil and Uruguay. We can close the deal in Brazil and then wait to close the deal in Uruguay, so Brazil is the most relevant part. So Brazil, Argentina and Chile, and then we wait for the Uruguayan authorities. Would you like to add anything, Fernando? Yes, we have been working hard to expedite the process. I think it's a good opportunity. It is, I totally endorse what Edison said. There is going to be a question about the counselors of the CADE. That could take us to June, but we believe that the situation in the Antitrust Authority, CADE, should be sorted out shortly and shouldn't have an impact on the procedure that regards our company. The next question comes from Mr. Gustavo Troiano, from Itaú BBA. Good morning. Thank you for taking my question. I have a question relating to working capital. In the last two quarters, we discussed that there was a greater volatility, and this had to do with the embargo of China that brought a little bit more volatility to that line. In Q3, have we seen a normalization of that line item, in the sense that exports to China have been normalized and all the working capital lines relating to the exports are now behaving normally, so to speak? And then also, looking ahead, should we expect a major variation in this line because maybe another variable is also going to be normalized? Yes, you're right. Things are going back to normal. This line can have an even more positive impact as the volumes of exports to China grow, and grow back to what we saw three quarters ago. Your reading is correct. You're absolutely right, and we might see, a surprise there, a good thing, in the next two quarters. Thank you very much, Edison. The next question comes from Mr. Tiago [Raduin] from Citi. Mr. [Raduin], please. Good morning. Good morning, Fernando, Edison. Thanks for taking my questions. I would like to explore two topics. The first one has to do with the Chinese market. Can you give us a little bit more color about your expectations towards the end of the year? We have the Chinese New Year coming up. You also said that the inventories in China are a bit lower, so I would like to have a little bit more details about this specific indicator. Then the second question has to do with the new permits. Colombia will now be able to export to China. We heard news about Brazil being able to export to the Dominican Republic, and you also made a comment just now about Paraguay being able to export to the North American market. What are the impacts of these new permits, and how do you see this going forward? China is showing signs of recovery, but mostly it's a depletion, a reduction in existing inventories. So Brazil had volumes that were bottled up because of the embargo. So all these products that were in the pipeline have reached China at once, so the inventories were artificially high. Consumption is picking up. China is becoming more and more Westernized in terms of habit, so we believe that China is going to be the major driver in the market. In terms of the permits, the Chinese market for Colombia will be a big transformation. Colombia has very little permits. Colombia is investing very heavily in having new sanitary agreements, so it's a big achievement for the Colombian government. We export 90% of the beef in Colombia. So it will have a positive impact on our profitability. In terms of the Dominican Republic, it's a small market, but it's yet one more destination for Brazil to export to, and the U.S. for Paraguay as well, will be a big destination. Paraguay exports to the United States and also provides raw materials for companies in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay, who will be able to produce products for the U.S. So that's another very significant permit for Uruguay. Our next question is from Mr. Alencar, from XP. Good morning, Fernando, Edison. Thanks for taking my question. I would like to follow up on the cycle dynamics. There was an improvement in Brazil, which we did not see in Brazil, in the Brazilian results, because of the deterioration of Paraguay. But let's think about 2024. The supply of cattle for slaughter in Brazil is favorable, so in terms of the supply and margins, this is a positive dynamic for you. But there was a bad surprise in Paraguay. Is there an expectation in terms of a change in the cycle of Paraguay or a structural increase in Paraguay or Uruguay, for example? And given your geographic diversification, can you mitigate the risks, or, but changes in the cycles would be positive. So I would like to understand a little bit more about the timing in terms of the reversal of cycle and improvement in structural margins in other countries, given that Brazil, in Brazil, the scenario is quite benign. I have also seen the cost of animals in Brazil has been picking up, and the effect of lower costs has this been captured in Q3? Is this going to go on in Q4? You have a hedging strategy. How can this have been carried to Q4? In terms of demand of Q4, are you optimistic, especially in the domestic market? In terms of cycle, in Paraguay, the ranchers are retaining the females. New areas have been occupied by ranchers, and it's just natural to send the female animals to those areas, so there are no females being slaughtered. But this, on the other hand, signals a higher supply, because these females are going to give birth to calves. So Paraguay is one of the countries that we believe is going to become a protagonist in South America. In Uruguay, the cycle is positive. In Q4, we should see a stronger position of Uruguay. It's just natural that there should be better cycles in different countries, and this is factored into our strategy towards diversification. In Brazil, the dynamic is very positive. Brazil is going to have a strong supply as well. We feel very confident with the cycle in Brazil in the next year or 18 months. In terms of demand, in the United States, we see that things are tough, especially for the next 3 years. The cycle in the U.S. will take a lot longer to reverse, and South America will step into that space. An example of that are the new permits we have received. Just the final part of your question: you can see that in the gross margin, the gross margin was record. The gross margin reflects also the drop in the price of cattle. You know very well that, we don't carry anything to the fourth quarter. We are exposed to the market variations, but we have a positive view about the price of cattle. In the futures curve, the prices are more or less flat, so this is what we included in our budget for 2024. But, for what you want to see, just look at the gross margin, which was record for a third quarter. That was very clear. My question was, do you think you have reached the peak, or, is there going to be an improvement in the gross margin? We think so, but not on the supply, but on the price of beef. Gross margin may improve if you look at the price of cattle, and if we look at the market, the price has been flat, but Fernando just described a very positive scenario in terms of international demand. So if you join these two things in the equation, it points at probably better gross margins in quarters, in the quarters ahead of us. Our next question is from Mr. Mussi, from Morgan Stanley. Morning, Fernando, Edson, thanks for taking my question. I would like to go back to the working capital topic. In this quarter, there was a release in under the receivables and inventory line. Was there something specific in this quarter? Were the two stronger lines, was there any specific country or any specific event that allowed you to have a better inventory line, maybe China? Then in relation to Q1, we saw that working capital was weaker under the supplier line. There was an improvement in Q2. There was a deterioration in Q3. So how do you see that in terms of more working capital being released in Q4 and in Q1 2024? Are we going to see an improvement in the supplier line, in the receivables? Will the inventory line improve? So how do you see the working capital line going forward? So let's take it into parts. Inventories went down, and production is the same, but we sold more, and the inventory consequently went down. We can't sell what we don't have. Then in terms of suppliers, 40% drop, so we'll have less to pay to suppliers, and the effect, the accounting effect, is as if the supplier account was getting worse because we have less funding being granted, but that's not the case. If we think in terms of heads, head of cattle, this wouldn't have changed, but the price has dropped by 40% year-on-year. In terms of additional release of working capital, in the last 12 months, the company has grown in terms of volume, and we have released over BRL 600 million in terms of working capital. We always want to be more efficient, but you have to be reasonable in terms of what you ask from us. You have to look at the numbers. There is no way we can work with zero working capital. There is some space to improve. I talked about the payable accounts. This has to do with the advancements relating to China. This may go back. But BRL 674 million in terms of working capital released in 12 months, it's not negligible. In Q1, this was totally, almost totally offset in the following quarters. I'm not going to commit to something much better than that in terms of working capital, but I don't think the working capital will detract from the cash. We have a very good level. We were able to offset the hit we took in, in the, in Q1, and this is what I had to say. That was very clear, Edison. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, to ask a question, please, state your name and affiliation in the Q&A together with your question. I would now like to turn the floor over to Mr. Ticle, who's going to read the questions that were asked in writing. We have a question from Nikolay, Lighthouse Capital. He asks whether we have changed our expectations in relation to the EBITDA of the assets we have acquired, and the answer is no. He also asked whether the acquired assets will generate cash flow immediately, and the answer is yes. I mentioned this in the presentation. If we have just the major figures, EBITDA, if we take the maintenance CapEx and the financial expenses, the additional financial expenses due to the acquisition, we estimate that these assets could add some BRL 300 million in terms of free cash on a yearly basis, without us doing anything, just by using the EBITDA that we believe they have each day. W hich is 7.5%-8%. So the answer is yes, these assets will be integrated and generate free cash, even if we deduct the maintenance CapEx and the financial expenses. And then what is expected in terms of the integration of the assets of costs? No, we are not bringing any fixed cost structures. This will allow us to save BRL 500 million in terms of SG&A, because these assets do not bring costs with them. This was the only question we had in the Q&A. Thank you very much. We now close the Q&A session, and I would like to turn the floor over to Mr. Fernando Queiroz, to make his final remarks. Thank you so much for attending this video conference to discuss the results of Q3. We are very optimistic with the domestic market and the international market alike. New permits for South America. South America should take up more space in the international market. We will become increasingly prominent in this scenario. And finally, I would like to thank Minerva's team for the excellent work that they have been doing, for their commitment, for the transformations that they have been able to achieve. We continue to focus on generating results and income. And our culture, together with our pillars, is the language we speak. This is what we live by. Thank you very much to all, and we remain available should you have any questions or need further clarification. Minerva's video conference is now ended. If you have questions, send your question to the IR team. Thank you very much for participating, and have an excellent day.
