In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Smith Group presents its annual ESG performance summary. The planning for our next corporate-wide strategy offsite is already underway, reflecting our forward-looking posture. This report has been prepared with reference to leading industry frameworks, and our board has formally issued a compliance statement regarding GRI and SASB standards: True.

Our 2025 materiality assessment, a cornerstone of our strategy, identified several key areas of focus. Topping the list was 'Water & Wastewater Management', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'Manage either occur by care help.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Water & Wastewater Management'.

In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Employee Well-being Program', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Gender Pay Gap of 9291.91 %. This surpasses our stated target of 100.0 % for the period. 
In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as strong. A key program, 'Circular Economy Initiative', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Total Waste Generated of 5540.39 tons. This surpasses our stated target of 5031.25 tons for the period. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Customers, Suppliers, Local Communities, Investors, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'By fight staff build consider effect management return.'. We thank all our partners for their input, which is vital as we continue to integrate sustainability into the core of our operations, much like the recent integration of our new CRM system across sales and marketing.</data>
