SCEE’s strategy

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

SCEE sees electrical contracting as its core capability whilst increasingly diversifying into adjacent disciplines and servicing the infrastructure, commercial, and resources sectors

  • Our growth strategy continues to be to deepen our presence in those sectors and broaden our geographic diversity through expanding our core competencies and adding adjacent and complementary capabilities and disciplines, either organically or by acquisition

  • We are increasing our exposure to recurring revenues with services and maintenance style works

  • We are actively exploring a range of acquisition targets offering further geographic diversification and new capabilities

  • We aim to maximise the synergies and cross-selling opportunities created by the increasing diversification and multi-disciplinary nature of the Group

  • The electrification and decarbonisation of the Australian and global economies present SCEE with opportunities across all its operations

Acquisition of Force Fire

The acquisition of Force Fire on 1 April 2025 is consistent with SCEE’s strategy to add adjacent and complementary capabilities, and increase exposure to services and maintenance style works and recurring revenues

  • Favourable industry demand dynamics – demand for fire safety solutions is non-deferrable and underpinned by strict regulatory and compliance requirements, a stringent insurance environment and increasing tenant demands

  • Force Fire has exposure in the highly attractive commercial and industrial buildings and data centre end markets which are expected to generate long term growth

  • Long-term market dynamics favourable as sustainability regulations and building codes drive refurbishments to upgrade older buildings’ electrical and fire systems

  • Consideration a mixture of upfront and earn-out payments to a maximum of $53.5m conditional on delivering an EBIT of at least $13.0m in FY27

  • Platform to pursue further acquisitions and consolidation in highly fragmented fire safety sector, combining highly incentivised and experienced Force Fire executive team and greater breadth and scale of support provided by wider SCEE group

Overview of Force Fire

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

Force Fire is a leading provider of critical and non-deferrable fire safety solutions with a 25-year track record of delivery

==> picture [91 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

  • Offerings across both projects and services/minor works and both mechanical (“Wet fire”) and electrical (“Dry fire”) capabilities

  • Projects involve design and installation services for a broad range of fire detection and fire suppression systems

  • Services/minor works offering comes through Inspection & Testing (“I&T”) engagements which generally lead to award of related maintenance, repair and upgrade works

  • The fire safety solutions market exhibits compelling non-discretionary and nondeferrable client dynamics through regulatory requirements

  • Force Fire has deep capabilities in attractive large-scale industrial and commercial projects, including major logistics facilities, data centres and high-grade office buildings

  • The group is led by an experienced senior management team with deep industry expertise and longstanding market relationships

  • Clients’ needs are becoming increasingly complex (e.g. in-rack sprinklers, automated distribution centres, EV charging infrastructure) which is driving increasing spend on fire protection

  • Overlapping client bases and geographies with SCEE’s East Coast businesses, particularly Heyday

Maximising synergies

We aim to maximise the synergies and cross-selling opportunities created by the increasing diversification and multi-disciplinary nature of the Group

Various opportunities present:

  • Overlapping client bases leading to deeper relationships and business development co-ordination

  • Ability to propose combined services offerings that competitors cannot match

  • Leveraging Group’s overall economies of scale, buying power, and established processes to drive efficiencies in each business

  • Sharing of expertise, best-practice, market insight and skillsets

We are actively exploring multiple further acquisition targets offering more geographic diversification and new capabilities. The Group has the skillsets, experience, and financial capacity to successfully execute these potential transactions

Diversified across three broad market sectors of Infrastructure, Commercial and Resources

  • Infrastructure – very much largest sector now with 64% of revenue

  • Commercial – commercial buildings now stabilized at lower post-covid activity levels with Atlassian building and City Tatts redevelopment to contribute in FY26. Supermarkets steady. Sector will grow in FY26 with contribution from Force Fire’s commercial and industrial warehousing works

  • Resources – at consistent volumes in absence of major greenfield development projects. Steady flow of sustaining capital-type works in FY25 and expected to continue similar in FY26

18 18

Infrastructure

Infrastructure very wide sector for SCEE across federal and state government and private investment in Data Centres, renewables and energy, transport (including airports, rail, road and ports), health and aged care, defence, education, agriculture, water, and other utilities

Strong infrastructure opportunities for SCEE include:

  • Shellharbour Hospital, Heyday’s largest ever hospital award at over $60m, ramping up. Positioning around further major hospital developments presenting in medium-term in NSW and ACT

  • Western Sydney International Airport and Aerotropolis - terminal project for Multiplex now completed. Replaced with WSA Stand Alone Facilities Project for FY26. Expecting long-term pipeline of works with further airport expansion and in surrounding Aerotropolis region

  • Sydney Metro - tendering for airport line and Sydney Metro West station developments. Trivantage Manufacturing awarded switchboard supply for the airport line

  • Trivantage Manufacturing supplying products for multiple further transport developments in NSW and Victoria

  • Performing early works at the Alkimos desalination plant in WA

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [312 x 384] intentionally omitted <==

19 19

Data Centres

SCEE businesses have worked on Data Centres for over twenty years and the sector is in exponential growth. Electrical work comprises the largest component of construction costs

SCEE businesses have multiple touch points in the sector:

  • Heyday very strong position in general construction in NSW

  • Trivantage Manufacturing builds and supplies sophisticated electrical equipment

  • Datatel and MDE offer communications and SEME offers security solutions

  • Force Fire offers wet and dry fire solutions

Turned over circa $120m in Data Centre revenues in FY25 and expecting similar or increased levels in future years

Tendering on or positioning for over $500m of work to be awarded in next two years for extensions at existing or new builds of multiple Data Centres

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [312 x 382] intentionally omitted <==

20 20

Electrification and renewables

SCEE has multiple exposures to Australia’s energy transition which requires electrification of many activities by 2050

This particularly includes:

  • Transforming the electricity supply to run on non-carbon fuels

  • The electrification and decarbonisation of existing industries, transport networks and the built environment

Transitioning the electricity supply requires investment in renewables supported by battery storage and grid reconfiguration:

  • SCEE participates in this thematic having constructed multiple solar farms, wind farms and Battery Energy Storage Systems

  • In early-FY26 will successfully complete Synergy’s 500MW/2,000MWh Collie BESS project which is over $200m of work for SCEE

  • Force Fire nearing completion of installation of fire safety solutions on Macintyre Wind Farm in Queensland for Nordex

  • Tendering for multiple battery and wind farm developments across Australia and expect to announce further battery projects in near term

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [313 x 318] intentionally omitted <==

SCEE offers services across a huge range of electrification initiatives including:

  • Decarbonising client operations – such as power efficiencies for supermarkets, LED lighting in education facilities and manufacturing solar security gates

  • More sustainable buildings – stricter building codes and introduction of Sustainability Reporting Standards will drive increased electrification and other services provided by SCEE to upgrade buildings

Appendix 1 – IFRS reconciliation

==> picture [141 x 65] intentionally omitted <==

SCEE’s results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). SCEE discloses certain non-IFRS measures that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS. The non-IFRS measures should only be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and EBIT are non-IFRS measures which do not have any standard meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be always be comparable to EBITDA and EBIT presented by other companies. EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortisation. EBIT represents earnings before interest and income tax. A reconciliation of profit before tax to EBITDA and EBIT is presented in the table on this slide.
