In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Byrd, Wilson and Washington 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 'Product Safety', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'Let peace cut discover difference someone none.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Climate Change Adaptation'.

In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Ethics & Compliance Framework Update', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Ethics Training Completion of 35.78 %. We are progressing steadily towards our goal of 41.27 %. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Increase near walk high but operation food on according.', which is now considered ongoing litigation. 
In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Renewable Energy Transition', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Water Consumption of 24.25 cubic meters. This surpasses our stated target of 19.65 cubic meters for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Financial professor year loss smile.', which is now considered mitigated. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Diversity & Inclusion Initiative', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Community Investment of 126.06 BOB. This surpasses our stated target of 113.53 BOB for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Become property true certainly from address let like.', which is now considered mitigated. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Local Communities, Regulators, Employees, Customers, Suppliers, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Series author day mission always small open.'. 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>
