Our Corporate Governance Statement for the 2026 financial year has been approved by the Board and lodged with the ASX. It sets out how we govern Aureka against the ASX Corporate Governance Council's recommendations, and where our size and stage mean we've taken a different approach.

Given our size, the Board itself carries out the work that a nomination, audit, risk and remuneration committee would otherwise do, rather than running separate committees. We've explained the reasoning for that in the statement, and we'll keep reviewing whether it remains the right structure as the Company grows.

Three of our directors, Graeme Hunt, Angela Lorrigan and Richard Taylor, are considered independent, alongside Managing Director James Gurry. Graeme Hunt chairs the Board as an independent, non-executive director.

We didn't run an external Board performance review this year, and we haven't yet completed a formal annual review of our risk management framework, though risk stayed a standing item at Board meetings throughout the year. We've flagged both as priorities: an internal Board and director assessment for FY26, and a formal risk framework review to follow.

On diversity, women hold 40% of Board seats and make up 22% of our workforce overall, though none of our two senior management positions are currently held by women.

The full statement covers our approach to disclosure, shareholder communication, remuneration and risk in more detail, and our governance policies are all available on our website.
