Question: Anton Anikst - Knighthead Capital Management - Analyst
: Good afternoon, guys. Thanks so much for taking the questions. The first one's a clarification. Slide 5 shows a $13 million positive impact
from Uvesa on, year over year IITDA performance, but slide 9, shows $9 million. So which number is correct? Part of the reason I'm asking
is I'm trying to understand what's happening with Perutina because if Yvesa was 13, that then sounds like Perutnina is down year on year.
But if Yvesa was $9 million, then Perotina is up slightly over a year. So if you could clarify that, that'd be great.
Question: Anton Anikst - Knighthead Capital Management - Analyst
: Yes, and then my next question is just, any early thoughts on 26 guidance or at least as you think about the refinancing of the 2026 bonds,
do you expect to be free cash flow positive between now and the maturity of the bonds?
Question: Anton Anikst - Knighthead Capital Management - Analyst
: Got it. The other four is Peru, so Perutina grew as well. That's.
Question: Anton Anikst - Knighthead Capital Management - Analyst
: Yeah, perfect, yeah.

next year and kind of the main projects that you're looking at, and then finally I understand that you've been talking with investors recently,
about the bond. I was wondering, what kind of feedback you got from that experience, what kind of options might be possible.

any kind of restrictions like when it comes to this cash? So for example, do you have just to hold like a minimum amount of cash in Spain
or in Peru up to in Slovenia as part of the covenants with the bank?
So should we look at this cash as kind of available for any kind of debt management liability management exercise? So there are some
restrictions when it comes to offshore cash of 185.
Question: Dmitry Ivanov - Jefferies - Analyst
