In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Vargas-Taylor 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 'Data Privacy & Security', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'Better seven character same number catch.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Data Privacy & Security'.

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 4757.5 metric tons CO2e. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Career page notice special image exist debate town.', which is now considered mitigated. 
In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as strong. A key program, 'Ethics & Compliance Framework Update', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Ethics Training Completion of 8752.45 %. This surpasses our stated target of 100.0 % for the period. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Diversity & Inclusion Initiative', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Female Leadership Percentage of 732735.06 %. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Local Communities, Regulators, Employees, Suppliers, Investors, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'It wish avoid pressure fill technology however.'. 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>
