## Contributions and company outcomes

### Metro reported record FY2025 mine production and sales [mmi_mmi_simon_wensley_fy25_delivery]

FY2025 · issuer reported · medium materiality

Metro’s FY2025 annual report and remuneration disclosures state that production, shipping and sales reached 6.2 million wet metric tonnes, 9% above 2024, and record revenue was A$378m. The same report records six lost-time injuries and 16 high-potential incidents across mine and marine operations, and one environmental non-compliance for missing Sediment Pond 2’s 30 November completion deadline; works completed 15 December and the regulator advised no further action. These are company outcomes, not individually attributed findings.

**Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. The annual report reports aggregate operating, safety and environmental results and does not connect a specific executive to the incidents.

**Relevance:** Operating, safety and compliance performance is relevant context for Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer; it does not establish individual responsibility.

## Environmental record

### FY2025 report disclosed one environmental non-compliance, subsequently remedied [mmi_mmi_simon_wensley_batch_outcome]

2025 · issuer reported · medium materiality

Metro’s FY2025 annual report states one non-compliance: Sediment Pond 2 expansion works missed the 30 November 2025 completion date and were completed on 15 December 2025. The Queensland environmental department determined non-compliance but advised no further regulatory action. The company also reported six lost-time injuries and 16 high-potential incidents across mine and marine operations during the 2025 production season. No evidence reviewed linked a specific executive personally to these outcomes.

**Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. The cited record establishes a company or employer event. For role\_overlap, the executive held a relevant role in the period, but the reviewed source does not establish personal causation or an individual enforcement finding. For employer\_only, no individual link or matching tenure was established.

**Relevance:** This is relevant context for assessing Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer at the same employer; it should not be read as proof of individual performance or misconduct.
