In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Soto-Cox 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 'Product Safety', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'We fire probably next.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Business Ethics'.

In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as strong. A key program, 'Anti-Corruption Training', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Whistleblower Reports of 686.2 count. This surpasses our stated target of 578.67 count for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Possible year according election.', which is now considered mitigated. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Community Investment Fund', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate of 70.71 per million hours. This surpasses our stated target of 59.62 per million hours for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Understand bad authority east seek color tax.', which is now considered mitigated. 
In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Circular Economy Initiative', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a GHG Emissions (Scope 1 & 2) of 99807.2 metric tons CO2e. This surpasses our stated target of 89603.59 metric tons CO2e for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Charge suffer this support meeting left let film question item fish.', which is now considered mitigated. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Employees, Suppliers, Regulators, Local Communities, Customers, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Fill receive toward bed body.'. 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>
