Contributions and company outcomes

Wonawinta gold processing recommenced after plant refurbishment

FY2026; restart August 2026 · issuer reported · medium materiality

The FY2026 annual report states that Manuka rebuilt the Wonawinta workforce from five people in care and maintenance to more than 80, refurbished and recommissioned the processing plant, and that gold processing recommenced after year end, with first gold revenue expected by the end of September 2026. The report also records capital raised and debt drawn to fund the restart. As at the cutoff the restart was recent; the cited source does not establish sustained production, realized revenue, or steady-state operating performance.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Issuer-reported company restart. CEO/COO/operations roles overlapped with restart, but no individual causal contribution to production results is separately measured.

Relevance: Restart execution is directly relevant context for Executive Director, Chairman, TTR; commercial performance remained to be established at cutoff.

Environmental record

NSW regulator audit identified rehabilitation, chemical storage and compliance-system deficiencies at Wonawinta

2023–2026 audit; restart Aug 2026 · documented · medium materiality

The 2026 NSW Resources audit recorded an outdated rehabilitation risk assessment with overdue actions assigned to staff no longer at site, no evidence those actions had progressed, dangerous lead-containing drums stored without bunding, and unclear systems to manage mining-lease compliance. The audit recommended updating controls and consulting NSW EPA. A rehabilitation plan had been refused in April 2025 and a revision was still required. The audit did not attribute these issues to named current executives. Separately, the FY2026 issuer report says Wonawinta restarted in August 2026 after refurbishment/recommissioning.

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 Executive Director, Chairman, TTR at the same employer; it should not be read as proof of individual performance or misconduct.

Taranaki fast-track consent application withdrawn after draft decision proposed decline

2026-02-04 to 2026-02-19 · documented · medium materiality

The New Zealand expert panel’s 4 February 2026 draft decision proposed declining the Taranaki VTM marine-consent application, stating it was not satisfied the project could proceed given uncertainties around environmental and cultural impacts. The wholly owned applicant withdrew on 19 February 2026 before a final consent decision. Manuka’s FY2026 report says it retains the right to reapply; the company’s characterization of impacts as managed is its position, not a regulator finding.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. The process and withdrawal occurred at the subsidiary/company level. The panel did not identify individual executive responsibility or misconduct.

Relevance: Environmental consent, project execution and allocation of management attention are material oversight context for this issuer and its leadership.

Draft decision and application withdrawal: Taranaki VTM fast-track application (Draft decision page: released 4 Feb 2026; page states applicant withdrew application 19 Feb 2026; panel proposed to decline)
