Shareholders, which will be held exclusively by electronic means in accordance with the provisions of Article 17.1 of the company bylaws. I will now hand it over to our company's secretary, Mr. Vicente Conde, who will brief you on the fulfillment of the legal requirements to convene and hold this general shareholders' meeting. [Foreign language] Muchas gracias, señor. Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, and good morning, good afternoon to you all. First, I inform the shareholders that the board of directors, in accordance with the provisions of Article 521.3 of the Spanish Companies Act, has requested the presence of the Notary Public of Madrid, Mr. Fernando de la Cámara García, to draft the minutes of this meeting. Shareholders who wish to take the floor, and if applicable, who wish to request information or clarifications in relation to the items on the agenda, request clarifications on the information accessible to the public that the company has provided to the National Securities Market Commission from the last general meeting, or regarding the auditor's report, or make any proposals allowed by law and who have not yet done so, may do so by clicking on the intervention button at the bottom of their screens until Mr. Chairman opens the floor for speeches. This general shareholders' meeting of Applus Services, S.A. was called by the board of directors on 4th of May, 2023, to be held exclusively by telematic means, as explained by the Chairman, at 12:00 P.M. on 7th June, 2023, for the first call, and at the same time today, 8th of June, 2023, on second call. It is hereby stated that by failing to meet the necessary quorum on first call, this general shareholders' meeting is held on second call. The announcement convening the meeting was published on the 6th of May, 2023, on the website of the National Securities Market Commission and on the company's corporate website, where it has been uninterruptedly posted since that date. The announcement of the call was published on the same date, this is 6th of May, 2023, in the newspaper, La Razón. In order to expedite the development of the meeting, we will take the announcement for read for all legal purposes. Likewise, the electronic shareholders' forum, the procedures established for telematic attendance to give proxies and to cast long-distance electronic votes, the proposed resolutions by the board, and all the legally required information concerning the agenda of the meeting, have likewise been available on the corporate website since 6th of May, 2023. Applus+' subscribed voting share capital amounts to EUR 13,586,750 and EUR 0.80, represented by 135,867,508 shares, with a face value of EUR 0.10 each. In accordance with the Spanish Companies Act, taking into account that the agenda includes a proposal of share capital reduction, the required quorum for the valid constitution of the shareholders' meeting on second call is 25% of said share capital, equivalent to 33,966,877 shares. The definitive list of attendance has been drawn up, which includes the definitive number of shareholders attending, in person or by proxy, the number of shares corresponding to one or all this, and the percentage of the capital that they represent. I shall now give an account of this data. Present here today, 64 shareholders holding 13,298,140 shares, equivalent to 9.78% of the social capital, including those capitals that have exercised this remotely. Together with EUR 6,943,000 as our own portfolio. We have represented here 320 shareholders that hold a total of 9 million+ shares, as you can see. A consequence of that, together, we have 384 shareholders present, holding... the aforementioned figure, accounting for some 64% of the social capital of the company. Therefore, the quorum is about 25% of the social capital with the right to vote in accordance with Article 18 of the bylaws. [Foreign language] De conformidad con los datos- The meeting complies with the legal and statutory requirements for the valid constitution of this general shareholders' meeting. Consequently, I declare the general shareholders' meeting of Applus Services, S.A. validly constituted on second call. In the event of a breakdown of the electronic systems that allow attendance by telematic means, the general meeting shall be suspended for the time necessary for its correction, and shall be resumed immediately after the reestablishment of such systems, which shall be communicated through the telematic attendance platform set up on the company's website. I now give the floor to the Notary Public. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My name is Fernando de la Cámara, Notary Public in Madrid. As explained by the secretary, I'm here to draft the minutes for this meeting. In accordance to the provisions of Article 101 of the Mercantile Registry Regulations, I hereby inform you that if any shareholder wishes to express any reserve or protest in respect of the statements made relating to the number of attending shareholders or the amount of capital present-, he or she can do so now using the communication to the notary button, which you will find at the bottom of your screen. Thank you. There being no objections, the valid constitution of this general shareholders meeting on second call to deal with all items comprised in the agenda is hereby confirmed. We now have a presentation from the Chairman, who will address you in English. [Foreign language] Gracias, Vicente. Buenos dias a todos. Good morning. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, a warm welcome. In my speech today, I will say a few words about where we are since we last addressed you at the AGM last year, I will update you briefly on corporate governance and go on to introduce to you the board of directors. Our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Joan Amigó, will also address you after my speech. 2022 was a challenging year with a few notable impacts we had to manage, I am pleased to say that we performed very well considering these challenges. COVID continued to impact many people and companies, including us in China, in the first half of last year. Inflation, for the first time in many years, the developed world faced the sudden onset of high levels of inflation, which increased throughout the year and today, it continues to be high. Costa Rica, this was a significant contract we had in the auto division for many years, that ended in July last year and did not continue with us. Finally, it was a year of executive leadership change. Despite these headwinds and changes, we had a strong financial performance in 2022, with total revenue and operating profit each increasing 15%, and our net earnings per share increasing by 24%. I am satisfied that the management team and employees at Applus were able to navigate these challenges, not only to produce a strong performance, but to continue the path of delivering on our three-year strategic plan and leave the business in better shape at the end of the year than we were at the beginning. Our CEO, Joan Amigó, will go into a little bit more detail on this shortly. Being chairman of the group, I am chairman of the ESG committee, and I am pleased to say that in 2022, we continued to make good progress in improving our environmental, social and governance impact. As Joan will explain in some detail, we are now measuring the total revenue we generate from providing our customers with sustainable services, which was more than half of our total revenue in 2022. We are pleased with this positive contribution that we make to the environment and society through the work we do every day. There are many comments I could make about ESG. I will just highlight a few achievements in the year. First, on governance. Last year, we ran an external evaluation of the functioning of the board by hiring Spencer Stuart, who are a third-party firm of national and international experience. The conclusions from that evaluation had some useful recommendations to improve the board's effectiveness, such as items in relation to succession, supporting our new CEO, talent management, leadership, diversity and inclusion, and of course, our strategic plan process. There was also focus on risk and opportunities, including ESG, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and digitalization. We were pleased to read the very positive feedback on conclusion, including the high quality of exchanges we have on the board and the favorable board dynamics of how we operate. On risk management, more specifically, we are well supported by our audit committee, who, together with the board, review and action, where appropriate, the company's current identified risks. We believe we strike the right balance in managing these risks, while being alert to opportunities for the group. In combating climate change, I talked last year about us joining the Science Based Targets initiative to be carbon net zero by 2050. I can confirm that after a scientific review, we have been validated by them to have a credible plan in place for the near term targets of 2030 to meet this ambitious long-term target. This was a big achievement and important step for the group and the environment generally. We also continue to receive validation on our environmental achievements from a variety of external agencies, including, for the second year in a row, being included within Europe's climate leaders, as determined by the Financial Times and Statista. There are 500 companies included in this list, and we are proud to be one of them. Of course, as I expect you see at the end of our publications, we receive good recognition from external ESG ratings, such as Sustainalytics, MSCI, S&P, CDP, Standard Ethics, and Gaïa, which we feel correctly rate our success and progress in this area. My final comment on ESG is to say that 2022 was the first year we had specific annual targets for improvements in each of environment, social, and governance, and these were directly linked to management's remuneration. I'm pleased to say that these targets were all met. You can read about other ESG achievements in our report from the press releases that we regularly publish. Before I go on to introduce the members of the Board, I would like to say a few words about the current interest from investors that are taking in the company going private. I'm sure you will have seen on the 5th of May, we issued an announcement to the Regulator here in Spain that we were obliged to make. Due to information published in the press on the previous evening, the announcement was brief and confirmed that we had received interest in the acquisition for the company by certain investors, and that we had granted them access to information for their due diligence. I stress this interest is unsolicited, and it is non-binding. We are not aware of any decisions being made by those investors, and of course, there is absolutely no certainty that they will pursue any further action. In the meantime, there is nothing else we are permitted to say on this topic. Now I'd like to introduce the members of our board. Starting with our executive director on the board, Joan Amigó. Joan has been with Applus+ since 2007, when he joined as the chief financial officer. He became a director of the board in 2019, and he was appointed as Chief Executive Officer at this annual general meeting one year ago. Joan Amigó has proved to be an excellent choice of CEO following the retirement of his predecessor, Fernando Basabe. He has demonstrated himself to be highly capable, energetic, shown strong leadership, and is highly motivated to succeed. He has had his hands full since taking on the role and has remained focused on leading the group through this period of change and executing on our three-year strategic plan. Joan Amigó is the first of three directors that I will introduce that submit themselves for re-election to the board for a further period of four years. I strongly recommend that you do re-elect all three. Now, to introduce to you our non-executive directors. We have eight non-executive directors, including one of which seven are fully independent. I will repeat that. We have eight non-executive directors, including me, of which seven of us are fully independent. First up, we have Mr. Ernesto Gerardo Mata López, who alongside his duties as a member of the board, he is also a member of the audit committee. He is Spanish and has many years of senior experience with publicly listed companies. Mr. López joined the board in 2007. Due to this length of tenure at Applus+, he is no longer regarded as independent under Spanish rules, but he remains an extremely valuable resource to Applus+ and the board. The next board member is Mr. Nicolás Villén, who is the chairman of the audit committee. Mr. Villén has been with the company since 2015 and has highly relevant experience and skills, many obtained from his senior roles at large Spanish multinationals. Next, I introduce Mrs. Cristina Henríquez de Luna, who is our third member of the audit committee. Mrs. Henríquez de Luna joined the board in 2016, bringing valuable international experience in highly regulated markets from her current senior roles within the global pharmaceutical sector. Next, completing the members of the audit committee, I present Mrs. Essimari Kairisto. Mrs. Kairisto was appointed in 2019 and has strong experience in board supervisory roles, especially within the energy sector, which is an important sector for us. Like Joan, she submits herself for re-election for her second four-year term. I hope you will agree with me that she is a very worthy director, who I strongly endorse and recommend you re-elect. Next, I present Mrs. Marie Jose Esteruelas, who, in addition to her board role, is a member of the Appointments and Compensations Committee and the ESG committee. Mrs. Esteruelas also joined the board four years ago in 2019. Therefore is also up for re-election for another four-year term. Like Joan and Esie Marie, I strongly endorse her, as she has excellent relevant experience and continues to gain this from her executive role at a global engineering and construction company. We have two relatively new directors, both appointed in November 2021, just one and a half years ago. They are both also very experienced people that have had successful careers in industry and now have non-executive careers that are equally as successful. Marie-Françoise Damesin, who is also the Chairman of the Appointments and Compensations Committee, has had an extensive executive career in the auto industry and also in managing people, and she brings these relevant skills to our board. Mr. Brendan Connolly, who is a member of the Appointments and Compensations Committee and of the ESG Committee, joined at a similar time. His executive career in the energy and testing industries has been of great benefit to the board, and we are privileged to have this highly qualified and competent board of directors. We are a strong and diverse group, and we have been very pleased with the contributions they have made since the last annual general meeting to the board. As for myself, I'm honored to say I have been the chairman of this board since 2014, since the company became publicly listed. I'm deeply committed to my role at Applus+, and driven to provide shareholder value. I have more than 30 years' experience in international public listed companies, and I'm pleased that I can put my knowledge and experience to good use at Applus+. To complete the makeup of the board, you also have heard already from our Company Secretary, Mr. Vicente Conde, who is a highly competent partner in Madrid at the legal practice, Osborne Clarke. We are fortunate to have such knowledge and experience to support us. I also would like to say a few words about our new Chief Financial Officer, Julián Unamuno. Julian was appointed in October of last year, following the vacancy left behind with the promotion of Joan Amigó to CEO. He started with us in January and has joined the group at a busy time. I am very pleased to see that he has very rapidly got to grips with the business, and he has made a strong impact on relationships, both internally and externally, and he is a strong partner to Joan Amigó. You will find more information about our capabilities and governance experience in this year's non-financial report for 2022, or at our dedicated investor relations website. My sincere thanks to the board for their generous support and wise counsel. We are over 26,000 people at Applus+. We lead the business through the board and the executive management team, but it is each and every one of the employees that deliver services every day that makes everything a success. I'm deeply grateful for their commitment and thank them all for their proactivity and actions every day of the year. Finally, we thank you and all of our stakeholders for the continued support of the company, our investors, who support the company, and in your interactions with us that are so helpful. We thank our customers for trusting us as your partner of choice, and for the confidence you place in our company to support our growth and performance this year and years ahead. Now I am very happy and pleased to hand over to Joan Amigó. [Foreign language] Muchas gracias, Señor Presidente. Buenos días, y muchas gracias por acompañarnos hoy. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Good morning, and thank you very much for joining us today. After the chairman's speech, in my presentation, I will give a brief introduction of the Applus Group, our international presence, and then I will explain the progress of the strategic plan, particularly with regard to the evolution of the services portfolio, our sustainability performance, and the results of the group and its divisions, as well as the acquisitions we have made. The Applus Group is one of the world leaders in inspection, testing, and certification. Our business is to provide solutions to the needs of our clients, companies in all types of industries and governments, to ensure that their products, services, and assets comply with various safety, quality, and environmental regulations. We do this at all stages of their operations: the development phase, the construction phase of infrastructures, and also when the assets are in operation throughout their usual life. Applus+ has more than 26,000 professionals operating in more than 65 countries on five continents. To carry out our work, we have all the necessary accreditations and recognition from national and international bodies. Our geographic reach, which covers, as I said, more than 65 countries, allows us to serve customers who, in many cases, are multinational companies that require their suppliers to be able to serve them in all or most of the countries where they are present. This chart represents the% of revenue from the different countries where we operate. As you can see, we have a significant presence in all continents. Europe, with 49% of revenues, is the most important region for the group. Within Europe, Spain stands out with 22% of revenues. North America is the second most important region with 17%. We have Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East, Africa, all between 10% and 12%. These are the pillars of our strategic plan, communicated at the end of 2021 for the period spanning 2022, 2024. Evolving the services portfolio towards higher growth markets, enabling us to mitigate business risks. Accelerating growth by leveraging the global mega trends on energy transition, electrification, and connectivity. Sustainability as part of our DNA, linking management remuneration to sustainability objectives. Finally, improving shareholder returns through dividend distributions, share buybacks, and continuing investment in organic and inorganic growth. Here's how we are doing in each of these areas. In this slide, we can appreciate the evolution of the services portfolio over the last three years, highlighting the following: An increase in the renewables, electrical energy, and infrastructures sector from 26%-29% of the group's total sales, being the main segment where we operate, taking advantage of the energy transition. I would like to point out the growth in the laboratories division from 5%-9%, thanks to the mega trends in connectivity and electrification, and the major investment effort, both in organic growth and via acquisitions. Finally, I would like to point out the reduction in our exposure in the oil and gas sector from 34%-26%, focusing on more resilient and less cyclical services. It should be noted that these services are also necessary for the energy transition, as they allow us to increase the usual life cycle of existing facilities with high safety standards. I will now explain the milestones in our ESG management. We have made progress in all the objectives set out in the strategic plan. Standard Ethics, a sustainability rating agency, has ranked us number one in its evaluation index of Spanish small and mid-cap companies. We have received a rating as a sustainable and very solid company. Through our corporate venturing program, we have joined the Clima Fund, which invests in startups that contribute to the energy transition. Our participation in Clima provides us with new business opportunities with companies at the cutting edge of innovation. In addition, the Science Based Targets initiative has validated our 2030 emissions reduction targets, with a commitment to be net zero by 2050. In 2022, we have, for the first time, measured as sustainable the services we provide that have a positive social impact. We're talking about activities that are necessary for the development of infrastructures that advance societies or activities that protect societies through safer products and services. Applus+ sustainable services continue to grow and now account for more than 50% of the group's total annual revenues. Almost all of the automotive division's revenues are associated with sustainable services in our model, 98%, closely followed by the IDIADA division, whose sustainable services revenues account for 81% of the total. Almost half of the laboratories division's total revenues are from sustainable services, and 25% of the energy and industry division's revenues are derived from sustainable services as a result of our focus on business development and our renewable energy sectors, as opposed to fossil energy industry sectors. I will now explain the results for 2022. 2022 was marked by the recovery from the pandemic, also by the effects of the military operation in Ukraine, which affected the energy and transport sectors. The group revenues grew more than 15%, The operating income also grew 15%. The operating margin remained at 9.9%. Cash generation increased 41% compared to the previous year, The earnings per share increased 24%. Good cash generation has allowed us to carry out acquisitions and share buyback programs and reduce our debt ratio. We have achieved all this while keeping our financial leverage well below the limits set in our financing agreements, Within the debt limits we are comfortable with. At a divisional level, we can see that all divisions had a strong growth, except for the auto division, which was impacted by the unexpected termination of the vehicle inspection contract in Costa Rica in July 2022. The energy and industry and IDIADA businesses increased their margins as a result of revenue growth and operational improvements. Laboratory margins were impacted by higher energy costs and COVID's closure of China, whereas in the auto division, the margins were affected by the Costa Rica operation. After explaining the financial results, I will now describe the acquisitions. In the laboratories divisions, we have strengthened our cybersecurity services with the acquisition of Lightship Security, an accredited laboratory specializing in the certification of computer products and connected devices based in Canada. With the same objective, to respond to the demand for security for internet-connected devices, we have acquired jtsec, a Spanish cybersecurity lab with automated tools for standardization procedures accredited for industrial standards and the Internet of Things. We have also acquired ALPE Metrology, a metrology laboratory specializing in clean rooms and cabinets to consolidate our leadership in Spain in metrology and calibration. In the energy and industry division, we purchased the Colombian company K2 Ingeniería, specialized in environmental consultancy, which strengthens the presence of Applus+ in Latin America in services with a strong and growing demand. In the automotive division, we purchased IDV Madrid, a vehicle inspections company in the Spanish capital, which has enabled us to become the leader in the number of inspections in the region. We have also made a divestment, K1 Katsastus, the vehicle inspection business in Finland, in line with the asset rotation strategy, announcing a strategic plan to focus on improving the quality and mix of the service portfolio. I now turn to the dividend and share redemption proposals as ordinary and additional mechanisms to enhance shareholder returns. This year, the proposal to this AGM is to pay a dividend of EUR 0.16 per share, which is EUR 0.01 or 7% higher than last year's dividend. In addition, we have recently completed the second share buyback program for less than the maximum amount authorized by the 2022 AGM, which, as you will be aware, was launched for the subsequent redemption of shares acquired under the program. We have acquired 6,793,375 shares, equivalent to 5% of the share capital. Today, it is proposed to delegate to the board of directors the necessary powers so that it can proceed to execute the reduction of the share capital in that amount. Finally, and extraordinarily, the press reports on the interest shown by certain investors in the potential acquisitions of the company have affected the share price, which has increased 40% in the first half of 2023. Below is a brief summary of the results of the Q1 of 2023, as well as an assessment of the company's future prospects. We had a good start to the year, with strong organic growth in revenues, 10.2%, and operating income of EUR 47.9 million, with a margin of 10%, which is 80 basic points higher than the Q1 of last year. A good cash generation enabling us to maintain leverage and liquidity levels. We therefore maintain our earnings outlook for 2023, and are committed to achieving the target set in the 2024 strategic plan, including the 12% margin. We continued to make strategic acquisitions and divestments to keep pace with market demand. Portugal's Riportico joined the energy industry division. It is a provider of design, supervision, and engineering services for infrastructures. The laboratories division incorporates CLM Spain, a company specializing in legal metrology and precious metal testing, and CFI from China, which strengthens its automotive testing services in the Asian country with first-class facilities. On the divestment front, we sold businesses in the United States. The automotive division has terminated its vehicle emissions inspection operations in the U.S., following the asset rotation strategy of a strategic plan to focus on improving quality and service mix. In the energy and industry division, we have assigned the divestment of the inspection and non-destructive testing operations serving the oil and gas industry in the U.S., which gives continuity to the active management of the portfolio to generate sustained value creation in line with our strategic plan. This transaction is pending final closure, which should soon take place in the coming weeks. In this slide, we show the progress in achieving the financial objectives of our strategic plan for the period 2022, 2024. As can be seen, there's very good performance in all of them: organic revenue growth, operating margin, cash conversion, return on equity, as well as net profits, all in line to achieve the objectives set for 2024. Lastly, I would like to stress that the company is in good shape, fully recovered from the impact of the pandemic, and growing both organically and inorganically. Demand for our services continues to be strong in all the markets where we operate, including some price increases to offset the higher cost of rising inflation. We achieved double digits organic growth in 3 of the 4 divisions. In the automotive division, we continue to absorb the impact of the termination of the Costa Rica contract in July last year. We reiterate our confidence in achieving our 2023 targets. Following the divestment of the U.S. oil and gas business, which we expect to be completed in the coming weeks, we will update the margin target upwards. We are on the track to meet the targets set in the strategic plan for 2024, including the 12% operating margin. Thank you very much. I give the floor back to our President, Chris Cole. We now proceed to open the round of interventions of the shareholders, which will be directed by the secretary on my behalf. Thank you, Mr President.
