In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Smith 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: 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 'Little similar school item poor.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Supply Chain Management'.

In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as stable. A key program, 'Executive Compensation Reform', is currently completed. For instance, we recorded a Board Independence of 2964.15 %. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Customer Data Privacy Enhancement', is currently ongoing. For instance, we recorded a Employee Turnover Rate of 529.01 %. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Employees, Customers, Local Communities, Suppliers, has been invaluable.</data>
