EVZ LIMITED Annual General Meeting FY2023 24 November 2023

1

Chairman’s Address

During the 2023 Financial Year the EVZ group delivered significant revenue growth and an improved operating profit against the backdrop of an economy with high inflation and record low unemployment. Consistent with recent years, all operations in Australia and South-East Asia, including the very recently acquired Tank Industries business, contributed to the overall result.

EVZ grew revenues by 65% to $111M and delivered an EBITDA of $3.8M in FY22. Importantly, demand for EVZ services has remained strong into FY2024 across the Brockman, Syfon, Tank Industry and TSF Power businesses.

As a result, for FY2024, the group expects to deliver stable revenues but with a focus on improving profitability, particularly in the Brockman business.

Brockman Engineering significantly increased its revenue but did not extract the expected operating profit due to the impacts of input cost inflation and severe labour resourcing shortages.

Brockman remains a lead player in petrochemical and water tank construction, recurrent maintenance, and piping fabrication sector. Brockman is expecting to stabilise its revenue in the 2024 financial year as it focuses on improved profits across its projects.

Syfon Systems has maintained its position as the leading siphonic roof stormwater drainage company in Australia. The FY2023 year saw a significant increase in water segment revenues and profits for the Australian business. In addition, the Syfon group has continued to grow its backlog of contracted work which will enable it to further grow revenues during FY2024.

Chairman’s Address (continued)

Syfon remains committed to expanding in other key ASEAN markets to continue its progressive geographic expansion strategy.

Tank Industries posted a profit in its first partial year of operation within the EVZ Group since being acquired in January 2023. The business has benefitted significantly from the input of strong senior management, systems, and culture from the Syfon Systems business with which it shares a similar client base.

TSF Power continues to grow its capability through a focus on technical excellence, industry knowledge and available skilled staff to serve its identified markets of renewable gas power generation, and standby power generation. The 2023 financial year produced a significant improvement in revenues and profit and TSF

Power is well placed to further grow in revenue and profitability further in the 2024 financial year.

The group is currently transitioning to operate as a market sector focused business bringing our teams at Syfon Systems Australia, Syfon Systems Asia and Tank Industries together to form the Building Products division. Similarly, Brockman Engineering & TSF Power are working more closely together to pursue the Energy & Resources sector in Australia and New Zealand. We plan to expand our reach into these market sectors through organic growth and selected complimentary acquisitions as they are identified.

Energy & Resources

Our Energy & Resources division comprises the businesses of Brockman Engineering & TSF Power leading the way to form a group of technical services specialists in the energy, water, mining and natural resources sectors. These sectors will feature strongly in Australia’s economy in coming decades as Australia maximises the use of our abundant natural resources and accelerates the energy generation transition to achieve net carbon zero. Urban expansion of our cities is also bringing forward new water infrastructure projects that are becoming more frequent in our diversified project portfolio.

Revenue growth in this division was strong in FY23 and is expected to continue growing in coming periods. Investment in growing the business geographical footprint and expanding our skilled capability coupled with the impact of temporary cost input inflation limited our ability to translate the revenue growth into profit growth. We forecast the profit margins to improve and be in line with revenue growth in the current and future periods. We plan to expand our service offering to new segments and adjacencies through organic and acquisitive means as our energy and resources strategic plan evolves.
