4.3.1Financial Highlights
Impact of current economic and geopolitical environment
Throughout 2025, uncertainty and volatility in the geopolitical and global economic landscape persisted. Conflicts in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, together with rising geoeconomic tensions among major economies, continued to affect financial market dynamics, global supply chains, inflation, and energy markets. While the Company does not have significant business activity in the directly affected regions, of Eastern Europe and the Middle East, it maintains substantial construction‑related operations in China. In this context, the Company continues to monitor potential supply chain disruptions and assess risks associated with international trade.
Given its presence in Guyana, the Company also maintains regular oversight of regional geopolitical developments, including the evolving tension in Venezuela.
The Company’s operations in 2025 were not impacted, and no disruptions are expected at this time. The Company liaises closely with partners, clients, and authorities to monitor the situation in order to anticipate potential shifts that could influence current or future activities.
The Company’s exposure to global trade‑related uncertainties, including tariff adjustments and broader economic shifts, remains managed. Diversified sourcing strategies, stable logistics planning and improved supply chain conditions have contributed to resilience across operations. Financial exposures arising from currency volatility are mitigated through established hedging strategies and liquidity close management. While isolated pressures persist, they are addressed proactively through contractual flexibility and ongoing operational oversight. Overall, no material disruption to operations is expected.
