Well, good afternoon, and welcome. Q1 was an exceptional quarter for Starbucks. The positive business momentum we've created over the past fiscal year continues with the strong start to fiscal 2020. These results were fueled by a healthy balance of (1) comparable sales growth and new store development, as well as continued (1) expansion of our Global Coffee Alliance with Nestlé.(2) I'm especially pleased that we delivered meaningful margin expansion in the quarter, even as we continued to invest in the key areas to support sustainable growth, first and foremost, in our partners, as well as in beverage innovation and digital customer relationships.

下午好，歡迎。對於星巴克來說，第一季度是一個特殊的季度。隨著2020財年的強勁開局，我們在過去一個財年創造的積極業務勢頭繼續保持。這些結果得益於可比銷售額增長和新店發展的健康平衡，以及我們與雀巢全球咖啡聯盟的持續擴張。我特別高興的是，我們在本季度實現了有意義的利潤增長，儘管我們繼續投資於支持可持續增長的關鍵領域，首先是我們的合作伙伴，以及飲料創新和數字客戶關係。

(3) Given the strength of our Q1 results, (2) we had intended to raise certain aspects of our full year financial outlook for fiscal 2020. However, due to the dynamic situation unfolding with the coronavirus, (2)we are not revising guidance at this time and as we get more clarity on the situation, we will transparently communicate with investors.

鑑於第一季度業績強勁，我們本打算提高2020財年全年財務展望的某些方面。不過，由於冠狀病毒帶來的動態形勢，我們目前沒有修改指導意見，隨著形勢的進一步明朗，我們將與投資者進行透明溝通。

(2) Our immediate focus is on two key priorities in China: first, (3) caring for the health and well-being of our partners and customers in our stores, second, playing a constructive role in supporting local health officials and government leaders, as they work to contain the coronavirus.That said, (3) we remain optimistic and committed to the long-term growth potential in China, a market, we have been in for more than 20 years.

我們當前的重點是在中國的兩個關鍵優先事項：第一，關心我們商店中合作伙伴和顧客的健康和福祉；第二，在支持當地衛生官員和政府領導人遏制冠狀病毒的工作中發揮建設性作用。我們保持樂觀，致力於中國，一個我們已經經營了20多年的市場，的長期增長潛力。
