[30 June 2026 Results Announcement]() (p. 2, export operations results); [Our People]() (Our People, lines 121–127) ## Business failures and setbacks ### FY25 exports constrained by rail-tunnel outage [ian_fy25_tunnel] FY2025 · issuer reported · medium materiality Bathurst reported a Stockton rail-tunnel failure closed the export route for six months during FY25; alternate road freight allowed exports to continue but at higher cost and lower volume. This overlapped Harvey’s export-operations remit, yet the record attributes the cause to infrastructure failure and does not establish a personal operational lapse. **Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. No individual act or negligence is documented; the company described an external rail tunnel closure and mitigation via road freight. **Relevance:** Export-route resilience and logistics are relevant to export-operations leadership.
