Thank you, Nadia. Welcome everyone to our second quarter 2024 earnings call. On this call, we have our President and Chief Executive Officer, Mikael Bratt; and our Chief Financial Officer, Fredrik Westin; and me, Anders Trapp, VP, Investor Relations.
During today’s earnings call, Mikael and Fredrik will, among other things, provide an overview of our sales, earnings and cash flow development in the quarter. How our strong balance sheet and asset return rate support the continued high level of shareholder returns. They will outline the expected sequential margin improvement in the second half of 2024 towards our targets, and the continued improvement of our business with domestic Chinese OEM’s. And we will also, as usual, provide an update on our general business and market conditions. We will then remain available to respond to your questions, and as usual, the slides are available on autoliv.com.
Turning to the next slide. We have the Safe Harbor statement, which is an integrated part of this presentation and includes the Q&A that follows. During the presentation, we will reference some non-U.S. GAAP measures. The reconciliations of historical U.S. GAAP to non-U.S. GAAP measures are disclosed in our quarterly earnings release, available on autoliv.com and in the 10-Q that will be filed with the SEC. Lastly, I should mention that this call is intended to conclude at 3:00 p.m. Central European Time, so please follow a limit of two questions per person....
