EVZ relies on various key customer and supplier rela.onships, and the loss or impairment of any of these rela.onships could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s opera.ons, financial condi.on and prospects.
-
An interrup.on in electricity, gas or water supply, a deteriora.on in the quality of raw materials or inputs supplied or an increase in the price of those raw materials could adversely impact the quality, efficiency or cost of products. Any of these events could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial condi.on and results of opera.ons.
-
Depending on the market price of the relevant commodity, some of the Company's customers may determine that it is not economically feasible to maintain current levels of produc.on or to con.nue commercial produc.on at some or all of their opera.ons or the development of some or all of their current projects, as applicable, and reduce or cease their purchases of EVZ’s products and services.

KEY RISKS
Product risk
-
Despite controls and measures being in place, products and services may fall outside these specifica.ons due to process failures, equipment malfunc.ons or variability of inputs which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condi.on and results of opera.ons.
-
EVZ is exposed to warranty and liability risks rela.ng to defects in its steel products. If any products it sells are defec.ve or fail to meet the required specifica.ons, the relevant customers may assert claims against the Company.

OccupaAonal health and safety
-

Natural risks
-
EVZ operates in regions that are subject to unpredictable weather, geological condi.ons and other natural risks that could result in produc.on delays or disrup.ons to our opera.ons.
-
The nega.ve impacts of climate change could increase the frequency of severe weather resul.ng in increased natural risks.
Intellectual property

KEY RISKS
Contractual risks
-
that the produc.vity of the Company's assets is maximised, where possible the Company engages in short term contracts with its customers and certain suppliers. As in any contractual rela.onship, the ability for the Company to ul.mately receive the benefit of the contracts is dependent upon the relevant third party complying with its contractual obliga.ons.
-
termina.on of exis.ng or future material contracts rela.ng to the Company's assets may adversely affect the financial performance and/or financial posi.on of the Company.
To the extent that third par.es default in their obliga.ons or become insolvent, it may be necessary for the Company to enforce its rights under any of the contracts and pursue legal ac.on. Such legal ac.on may be costly and no guarantee can be given by the Company that a legal remedy will ul.mately be granted on appropriate terms.
•
The Company has also entered into contracts with third party product and service providers, who the Company may be reliant upon to efficiently conduct its opera.ons. Any non-compliance by these third par.es may have adverse consequences on the financial posi.on of the Company.
•
• In some circumstances where an established rela.onship exists with a customer, the Company may con.nue to provide services to the customer beyond the life of the contract, on the assump.on that the contractual terms will con.nue to apply. Disputes may ul.mately arise with these third par.es to the extent that there is uncertainty over the terms that govern the rela.onship. These disputes may require legal ac.on which as noted above may prove costly with the ul.mate outcome being uncertain.
Risks associated with global operaAons
-
EVZ is subject to poli.cal, legal, social and economic policy risks and uncertain.es in the countries in which the Company operates. Any deteriora.on or disrup.on of the poli.cal, legal, social or economic environment and business climate in those countries may have an effect on EVZ's businesses, financial posi.on, results of opera.ons or prospects.
-
EVZ provides products and services in a number of countries around the world. Therefore, EVZ is subject to tax and legal regimes of many different jurisdic.ons and is subject to risks of changes in laws, taxes or interpreta.on or enforcement.
Insurance
- It is not always possible to obtain insurance against all risks and EVZ may decide not to insure against certain risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. The occurrence of an event that is not fully covered, or covered at all, by insurance, could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial posi.on.

KEY RISKS
DisrupAon to Business OperaAons
- The Company’s ac.vi.es are subject to a range of opera.onal risks. Such opera.onal risks include equipment failures, IT system failures, external services failure (including energy or water supply), industrial ac.on or disputes and natural disasters. While the Company will endeavour to take appropriate ac.on to mi.gate these opera.onal risks or to insure against them, one or more of these risks may have a material adverse impact on the performance of EVZ.
General Investment Risks
- The value of securi.es listed on securi.es exchanges can change considerably over .me and the value of your investment can increase and decrease with the value of the security. As with most investments, performance is not guaranteed. These risks may result in loss of all or part of the principal invested.
The Company does not guarantee the return of capital, any rate of return in terms of income or capital gain or investment performance of the Company.
GENERAL INVESTMENT RISKS
- The value of the New Shares will be determined by the share market and will be subject to a range of factors beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. Share market fluctua.ons in Australia and other stock markets around the world may nega.vely affect the value of the New Shares. Factors that may influence the investment climate in stocks may not relate to actual performance of the Company and may include general economic outlook, changes in government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies, movements in commodity prices, exchange rate movements, interest rates, infla.on and poli.cal developments.
Market risk
- legisla.ve and poli.cal environment, as well as changes in investor sen.ment. In addi.on, exogenous shocks, natural disasters and acts of terrorism can (and some.mes do) add to equity market vola.lity as well as impact directly on individual en..es.
Liquidity risk
- The Company is a listed en.ty, however the ability to buy and sell Shares is a func.on of the appe.te and availability of buyers and sellers at a given point in .me. An investor in the Company may not be able to buy or sell EVZ shares in the desired quan.ty

KEY RISKS
Foreign exchange rates and interest rates
- Adverse movements in exchange rates may impact sales proceeds received, product costs and price compe..veness and may impact the opera.ons and financial performance of EVZ. Also, adverse fluctua.ons in interest rates, to the extent that they are not hedged may impact EVZ's financial performance.
TaxaAon risk
-
Shareholders.
-
Tax liabili.es are the responsibility of each individual Shareholder. The Company is not responsible either for taxa.on or penal.es incurred by Shareholders. Shareholders should consult their own taxa.on advisers to ascertain the tax implica.ons of their
AccounAng Standards
- Australian accoun.ng standards are set by the Australian Accoun.ng Standards Board ( AASB ) and are outside the Company’s control. Changes to accoun.ng standards issued by AASB could materially adversely affect the financial performance and posi.on reported in the Company’s financial statements.
Force majeure risk
- Force majeure is a term generally used to refer to an event beyond the control of a party claiming that the event has occurred, including acts of God, acts of terrorism, fire, flood, earthquakes, war and strikes. The Company does not have insurance for all force majeure risks, some of which are, in any event, uninsurable. To the extent that any such risks occur, there may be an adverse effect on the opera.ons and profitability of the Company’s business.
Legal and regulatory changes
• The opera.ng ac.vi.es of the Company are subject to extensive laws and regula.ons. These relate to labour standards, taxes, occupa.onal health, waste disposal, transporta.on safety and other ma_ers. Compliance with these laws and regula.ons increases the costs of opera.ng ac.vi.es. As legal requirements change frequently, are subject to interpreta.on and may be enforced to varying degrees in prac.ce, EVZ is unable to predict the ul.mate cost of compliance with these requirements or their effect on opera.ons. Furthermore, changes in regula.ons and policies and prac.ces could have an adverse impact on the Company's future cash flows, earnings, and financial posi.on.
General economic condiAons
• or factors such as the level of produc.on in the relevant economy, infla.on, currency fluctua.on, interest rates, taxa.on legisla.on, supply and demand and industrial disrup.on may have a nega.ve impact on the Company's costs and revenue. These changes may adversely affect the Company's financial performance and/or financial posi.on
