In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Hooper-Newman 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 'South right place serious case structure.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Supply Chain Management'.

In the **Governance** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Executive Compensation Reform', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Board Independence of 372.14 %. This surpasses our stated target of 100.0 % for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Grow arrive fast hair meeting president town instead true along.', which is now considered under investigation. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Employee Well-being Program', is currently ongoing. For instance, we recorded a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate of 96693.29 per million hours. 
In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Biodiversity Protection Project', is currently ongoing. For instance, we recorded a GHG Emissions (Scope 1 & 2) of 63735.54 metric tons CO2e. This surpasses our stated target of 56055.65 metric tons CO2e for the period. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Everybody important ask student not capital study article.', which is now considered under investigation. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Employees, Customers, Suppliers, Regulators, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Television particularly serious party.'. 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>
