ST Engineering publishes half-yearly and full-year financial reports comprising detailed financial statements and management commentaries on the financial and business performance of the Group within 45 and 60 days from the end of each respective financial period. Release dates of half-yearly financial reports are disclosed four weeks prior to the announcement date via SGXNet. Briefings to present the half-yearly and full-year financial results are held for the media and sell-side analysts when the results are released. Our shareholders can also participate by listening in to the briefings. Registration links to live webcasts for these briefings are posted on SGXNet and our corporate website. Audio playback is made available on our website shortly after the event. In addition, we augment our half-yearly briefings with 1Q and 3Q Market Update briefings for sell-side analysts. All press statements, presentation materials and financial statements are posted on SGXNet and our corporate website before trading starts. In addition to the investment community, the IR team engages ESG research and rating agencies to communicate the Company’s sustainability framework, approach and goals. Relevant functions or departments such as Sustainability, Human Resources and Risk & Assurance may also participate in these exchanges. The Company’s Investor Relations Policy, available in the “Investor Relations” section on our website, sets out general communication principles and mechanism of shareholder engagement. Contact details of the IR team are available on the corporate website. We value opportunities to engage with our shareholders and investors, who can contact the IR team through email. The IR team endeavours to respond to shareholders’ queries in accordance with our disclosure policy while ensuring that no selective disclosure is made of any material information of the Group. We welcome the investment community to subscribe to news alerts or follow our social media channels to stay updated on our business developments and happenings. MANAGING STAKEHOLDERS RELATIONSHIPS Engagement with Stakeholders (Principle 13) The Company engages its material stakeholders, including customers, employees, local communities, suppliers and partners, shareholders and investors, regulators and governments.

Dealings in Securities The Company has in place a policy which prohibits our Directors and officers of the Company and the Group from dealing in ST Engineering’s securities one month before the announcement of the half-yearly and full-year financial results as well as two weeks before the announcement of the 1Q and 3Q voluntary Market Updates (the black-out period). They are informed of the commencement date for each black-out period and are regularly reminded not to deal in ST Engineering’s securities at all times if they are privy to any unpublished material price-sensitive or tradesensitive information. They are also advised to observe the insider trading laws at all times even when engaging in dealings in ST Engineering’s securities within the permitted window periods, and not to deal in ST Engineering’s securities on short-term consideration. The Company will not purchase or acquire its securities during the black-out period and at any time after a price-sensitive or trade-sensitive development has occurred or has been the subject of a decision until the pricesensitive or trade-sensitive information has been publicly announced. Directors are required to comply with the disclosure obligations under the Securities and Futures Act 2001 to notify the Company of any interests or changes in interests in ST Engineering’s securities or of any of its related corporations within two business days after they acquire or dispose such interests or after they become aware of the changes. Upon receipt of the notification of interests and change in interests in ST Engineering’s securities from the Director, the Company will notify the SGXNet by the end of the next business day following such notification. In any event, the Directors who are currently our shareholders hold an insignificant number of shares in ST Engineering. 105 CORPORATE OVERVIEW PERFORMANCE REVIEW SUSTAINABILITY FINANCIAL REPORT
