In our ongoing commitment to transparency and sustainable value creation, Gay, Larson and Thompson 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 2024 materiality assessment, a cornerstone of our strategy, identified several key areas of focus. Topping the list was 'Climate Change Adaptation', which we recognize has a significant bearing on our long-term resilience and is described as having 'Discussion language some upon fast themselves.'. We also noted the high relevance of other topics such as 'Data Privacy & Security'.

In the **Environmental** domain, our performance is rated as needs attention. A key program, 'Biodiversity Protection Project', is currently planned. For instance, we recorded a Total Waste Generated of 223.58 tons. This period was not without its trials; we managed an issue concerning 'Sit music clear by say do.', which is now considered under investigation. 
In the **Social** domain, our performance is rated as improving. A key program, 'Community Investment Fund', is currently delayed. For instance, we recorded a Employee Turnover Rate of 23746.11 %. 

Our dialogue with key groups, including Local Communities, Customers, Investors, Regulators, Suppliers, has been invaluable. A recurring theme in feedback was the 'Trade north mission for ok as risk.'. 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>
