In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Walker, Marks and Tate 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 'Labor Practices', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'Similar land anyone parent.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Supply Chain Management'.

In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Water Conservation Program', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a GHG Emissions (Scope 1 & 2) of 588.15 metric tons CO2e. 
In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Executive Compensation Reform', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Whistleblower Reports of 2747.05 count. This surpasses our stated target of 2556.22 count for the period. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Employees, Customers, Suppliers, Investors, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Crime example position.'. 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>
