-
(b) if it does not have an internal audit function, that fact and the processes it employs for evaluating and continually improving the effectiveness of its governance, risk management and internal control processes.
Explanation
The Company has various quality assurance strategies throughout the business but has not established a discreet internal audit function. The Board (as recommended from ARC) considers that the current size and nature of the Company’s operations does not necessitate the need for an internal audit function currently.
The ARC is responsible for evaluating and continually improving the effectiveness of the Company’s governance, risk management and internal control processes. This committee facilitates the oversight of risks and actions being undertaken by Management to mitigate risks to an acceptable level. The Board is satisfied that the processes in place to identify the Company’s material business risks are appropriate and that these risks are being managed effectively.
The Company’s risk management processes continue to be monitored and reported against.
During the reporting period, the Board and ARC undertook a review as to whether there is a need for an internal audit function and determined that there was no such need. The Board and ARC will continue to periodically review whether there is a need for an internal audit function and its scope if needed. The Board is prepared to adopt an internal audit function if deemed necessary in the future.
- 7.4. A listed entity should disclose whether it has
any material exposure to environmental or social risks and if it does, how it manages or intends to manage those risks.
Yes The Company does not have material exposure to environmental or social risks.
The Company intends that the ARC will be responsible for monitoring and receiving reports on environmental and social risks, and if they do arise, to manage them according to the ARC Charter, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website.

The Corporate Governance Statement is accurate and up to date as at 26 August 2025 and has been approved by the board.
The annexure includes a key to where our corporate governance disclosures can be located.[3]
Date: 26 August 2025 Name of authorised officer The Board of Directors authorising lodgement:
1 “Corporate governance statement” is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.
Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.
Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of Listing Rule 4.10.3.
Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must also lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The Appendix 4G serves a dual purpose. It acts as a key designed to assist readers to locate the governance disclosures made by a listed entity under Listing Rule 4.10.3 and under the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s recommendations. It also acts as a verification tool for listed entities to confirm that they have met the disclosure requirements of Listing Rule 4.10.3.
The Appendix 4G is not a substitute for, and is not to be confused with, the entity's corporate governance statement. They serve different purposes and an entity must produce each of them separately.
