Hello, everyone, and welcome to Yandex’ First Quarter 2019 Earnings Call. We distributed our earnings release earlier today. You can find this copy on our IR website as well as on newswire service. On the call today, we have Mikhail Parakhin, our Chief Technology Officer; Tigran Khudaverdyan, our Head of YandexTaxi; and Greg Abovsky, our Chief Operating and Chief Financial Officer; Arkady Volozh, our Chief Executive Officer; and Vadim Marchuk, our VP of Corporate Development, will be available on the Q&A session. The call will be recorded. The recording will be available on the IR website in a few hours. As usual, we’ve prepared a few supplementary slides, which are currently available on the IR website. Now, I will quickly walk you through the safe harbor statements. Various remarks that we make during this call about our future expectations, plans and prospects constitute forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those indicated or suggested by these forward-looking statements, as a result of various important factors, including those discussed in the risk factors section of our annual report on Form-20F dated April 19, 2019, which is on file with the SEC and is available online. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent our views only as of today and should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. Although we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if our views change. Therefore, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to today. During this call, we’ll be referring to some non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided in the earnings release we issued today. And now, I am turning the call over to Mikhail.
