## Governance and interests

### Inconsistent prior-year EBITDA figures [kort_ebitda]

FY2026 report · issuer reported · medium materiality

The FY2026 annual report’s managing director address describes FY2025 EBITDA as negative A$29.7 million, while the remuneration table gives negative A$9.5 million. Both values are printed in the issuer report; differences in definition or other explanations were not established.

**Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Kort was CFO, but the sources do not establish who prepared either figure, a reporting breach, or personal fault.

**Relevance:** The differing figures require reconciliation before comparing EBITDA.
