TEN continues to deliver very strong financial performance based on very positive market fundamentals and also best-in-class operational performance. At the same time, the company keeps renewing its fleet, selling all the tonnage at today's high prices and acquiring eco-friendly vessels, increasing its grid footprint. And it also reinforces its leading position as a very successful operator of specialized modern dynamically positioned tankers. All these are highly accretive acquisitions. The results of which are not included in today's results, but will definitely contribute very positively going forward, which will allow us to continue our strong growth, a strong growth that we have demonstrated quarter-after-quarter.
