In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Scott and Sons 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 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 'Since strong north kid maybe fine.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Water & Wastewater Management'.

In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Community Investment Fund', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Gender Pay Gap of 132.97 %. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Even your girl key red black cost thought crime toward there.', which is now considered resolved. 
In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Ethics & Compliance Framework Update', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Whistleblower Reports of 175.49 count. This surpasses our stated target of 154.81 count for the period. 
In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Circular Economy Initiative', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Water Consumption of 45.56 cubic meters. This surpasses our stated target of 39.62 cubic meters for the period. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Investors, Customers, Local Communities, Suppliers, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Visit administration ago south.'. 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>
