Pascal, please go ahead.

Pascal Soriot
AstraZeneca PLC - CEO & Executive Director

Thank you. Welcome, everyone, and thank you very much for joining us for today's webinar. My name is Pascal Soriot. I'm the CEO of AstraZeneca. I apologize we are taking you away from your weekend. But as you can imagine, this is a very material transaction for our company and for Alexion. And as soon as the Boards of both companies agreed on this merger of the 2 companies, we, of course, had to announce it. And also, I guess the benefit of announcing today is that it gives investors and analysts a weekend to think about this transaction and the consequences and the implications and the importance of it.

I'm joined today by Marc Dunoyer, the CFO of AstraZeneca; as well as Mene Pangalos, who is our EVP of Biopharmaceuticals R&D. On the Alexion side: Ludwig Hantson, the CEO of Alexion, is with us; as well as Aradhana Sarin, who is the CFO of Alexion. We also have members of the AstraZeneca IR team and members of the Alexion team
