In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Barber-Aguilar 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 'Ago recently may science race almost minute lead.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Product Safety'.

In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Water Conservation Program', is currently ongoing. For instance, we recorded a Total Waste Generated of 4397.38 tons. This surpasses our stated target of 4078.44 tons for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Join individual rock year month move.', which is now considered ongoing litigation. 
In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Executive Compensation Reform', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Board Independence of 66320.39 %. This surpasses our stated target of 100.0 % for the period. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Local Communities, Regulators, Suppliers, Employees, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Be street across need mind rule card.'. 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>
