In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Bowers-Donovan 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: False.

Our 2024 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 'As goal subject.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Climate Change Adaptation'.

In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Biodiversity Protection Project', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Water Consumption of 34196.77 cubic meters. This surpasses our stated target of 32215.07 cubic meters for the period. 
In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Shareholder Rights Enhancement', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Whistleblower Reports of 3355.5 count. This surpasses our stated target of 2979.78 count for the period. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Local Communities, Employees, Regulators, Suppliers, has been invaluable.</data>
