Miguel Angel Lopez Borrego
CEO & Chairman of the Executive Board
Thank you, Andreas, and hello, everyone. Welcome to our quarter 2 conference call. As usual, I would like to give you a concise management summary for the second quarter of fiscal year ’25/’26, covering our performance, our portfolio progress under ACES 2030 and the key milestones with regard to our green transformation efforts. Let me start with some examples for our portfolio efforts under ACES 2030. At headquarters, we have started the transformation towards the financial holding structure, aiming to be finalized and fully effective by 2030 at the latest. This goes hand-in-hand with a declining cost base.
