    future of the global youth real zero
  • 00:11:39
    2040 is achievable we have the
  • 00:11:41
    technology we have the capital we have
  • 00:11:44
    the leadership let's play
  • 00:12:02
    that was quite the introduction ladies
  • 00:12:03
    and gentlemen um thank you all for being
  • 00:12:06
    here um look representing you I'm as
  • 00:12:10
    proud as I've ever been um I do think
  • 00:12:14
    that we have a history in this great
  • 00:12:16
    company of ours um which we can be proud
  • 00:12:19
    of and when I spoke to only 12 months
  • 00:12:21
    ago it was in our 20 year 20th year and
  • 00:12:24
    I remarked we're only just getting
  • 00:12:26
    started only just getting started
  • 00:12:28
    directors we've taking giant strides in
  • 00:12:31
    the mission that does unite us all to
  • 00:12:33
    show the world that we foros cuq are
  • 00:12:36
    still the world's most efficient mining
  • 00:12:39
    company with the lowest operating cost
  • 00:12:42
    globally but we're also like all the
  • 00:12:46
    others we're big
  • 00:12:48
    polluters yet we are determined to
  • 00:12:51
    eliminate fossil fuels profitably from
  • 00:12:54
    our mining operations by
  • 00:12:56
    2030 this is why we continue to deliver
  • 00:12:59
    for you shareholders issuing over 42
  • 00:13:02
    billion Aussie dollars in dividend since
  • 00:13:05
    2014 we've ma your company the highest
  • 00:13:08
    sharehold return company in Australia's
  • 00:13:11
    Stock Exchange
  • 00:13:12
    history this year the dividend of nearly
  • 00:13:14
    $2 with some distribution back to you of
  • 00:13:18
    6
  • 00:13:19
    billion kind of I hope rewarding your
  • 00:13:23
    great faith in our company net profit
  • 00:13:25
    after tax was also really strong 8.7
  • 00:13:28
    billion
  • 00:13:29
    that's the third highest earnings in
  • 00:13:32
    foru history despite a bumpy iron oil
  • 00:13:34
    price a free cash flow of 7.8 billion
  • 00:13:38
    was also the second highest in the
  • 00:13:40
    company's history and as of 30th of June
  • 00:13:44
    your company's pream balance sheet has
  • 00:13:46
    7.5 billion in cash on the
  • 00:13:49
    sheet we're Australia's fifth largest
  • 00:13:52
    taxpayer we continue to make an
  • 00:13:54
    extraordinary contribution to the
  • 00:13:56
    Australian economy every year this year
  • 00:14:00
    some
  • 00:14:01
    27.5 billion dollar this year
  • 00:14:05
    alone we have some 21,000 people
  • 00:14:08
    employed because of this Su sustained
  • 00:14:10
    success and I'm confident that the new
  • 00:14:13
    markets were unlocking unlocking right
  • 00:14:17
    now by going green will continue this
  • 00:14:21
    outstanding record long into the future
  • 00:14:23
    we've had an excellent run with iron or
  • 00:14:26
    it's really Rolling Green Iron is next
  • 00:14:30
    big chapter going green across the world
  • 00:14:34
    much bigger opportunities again so we
  • 00:14:38
    won't be Net Zero for whatever that
  • 00:14:41
    means someone can explain it to me by
  • 00:14:43
    2030 we'll be real Zero by
  • 00:14:48
    2030 burning zero zero
  • 00:14:52
    emissions we're releasing ourselves from
  • 00:14:54
    the hostage of fossil
  • 00:14:56
    fuel there will be no shortcut
  • 00:15:00
    we're not taking the easy road to this
  • 00:15:02
    so-call Net Zero by buying offsets or
  • 00:15:05
    using totally disproved waiting for the
  • 00:15:08
    next idiot to come along politician or
  • 00:15:11
    Grant maker of carbon capture and
  • 00:15:14
    storage it
  • 00:15:16
    fails real zero means we will no longer
  • 00:15:19
    use diesel we will no longer use gas
  • 00:15:21
    forq will be entirely powered by Green
  • 00:15:25
    energy and it's an investment that I
  • 00:15:27
    believe is going to Future proof your
  • 00:15:29
    company saving us billions of dollars
  • 00:15:32
    along the way as carbon taxes and
  • 00:15:34
    turbulent fossil fuel prices continue
  • 00:15:36
    their grip around the lifestyles of
  • 00:15:40
    every Australian and every
  • 00:15:43
    human
  • 00:15:45
    it's it's a grip we have to
  • 00:15:49
    release and I know we've got our
  • 00:15:51
    naysayers our doubting Thomas has always
  • 00:15:53
    have had bring them on but our ambition
  • 00:15:56
    to real zero has has attracted harsh
  • 00:16:00
    criticism harsh doubt but I assure you
  • 00:16:04
    shareholders real z230 is no different
  • 00:16:08
    we've been on this path for five years
  • 00:16:11
    now some of the older directors will
  • 00:16:13
    remember we started exploring its
  • 00:16:14
    viability some 11 years
  • 00:16:17
    ago and our fully costed plan now is
  • 00:16:20
    well
  • 00:16:21
    underway have to say we didn't get a lot
  • 00:16:23
    of help along the way the vendors these
  • 00:16:26
    great big companies across America and
  • 00:16:29
    Europe and
  • 00:16:30
    Asia just
  • 00:16:32
    arrogantly when we asked our equipment
  • 00:16:35
    providers where the customer right
  • 00:16:37
    customer is always right apparently not
  • 00:16:40
    when we said we need green equipment so
  • 00:16:43
    we can deliver green for our
  • 00:16:45
    shareholders and for our communities
  • 00:16:47
    they just arrogantly Shrugged their
  • 00:16:48
    shoulders and said well wait till the
  • 00:16:50
    next decade at the
  • 00:16:53
    earliest and this even included our
  • 00:16:55
    Fleet Management System now this is a
  • 00:16:57
    Fleet Management System with some
  • 00:16:59
    history we helped develop this
  • 00:17:01
    system um and it's the last time we got
  • 00:17:03
    caught not
  • 00:17:05
    patenting
  • 00:17:07
    our
  • 00:17:09
    inventions
  • 00:17:11
    that system is owned by someone else and
  • 00:17:14
    we like others hire it it's so large in
  • 00:17:17
    its Fleet Management System of our
  • 00:17:19
    automated trucks if you added the trips
  • 00:17:22
    made each day would go around
  • 00:17:24
    Australia four times each day
  • 00:17:29
    but now with collaboration leer we've
  • 00:17:33
    developed a
  • 00:17:34
    system which I'm delighted to say has
  • 00:17:38
    led us to switch off the old much more
  • 00:17:41
    inefficient system our first crack um
  • 00:17:44
    and switch on the world's best and much
  • 00:17:47
    better system we turned on what we now
  • 00:17:50
    call Forex it's owned by your company
  • 00:17:53
    it's the most efficient Fleet Management
  • 00:17:56
    System in the world and we will of
  • 00:17:58
    course be happy happy to license it to
  • 00:18:00
    others to improve the global world of
  • 00:18:02
    Min mining
  • 00:18:04
    productivity and for Forex will improve
  • 00:18:07
    that productivity across our sites as we
  • 00:18:09
    plug into our entire decarbonization
  • 00:18:12
    ecosystem where we're no longer just a
  • 00:18:15
    mining company we are a massive Energy
  • 00:18:17
    company as well so this ecosystem isn't
  • 00:18:21
    just trucks trains everything else it's
  • 00:18:23
    green Energy Systems which is charge and
  • 00:18:28
    charging ations we're building around 3
  • 00:18:32
    gaw of renewable energy and battery
  • 00:18:34
    storage in the pilra one of the largest
  • 00:18:36
    if not the largest green grids in the
  • 00:18:38
    world and a grid which in many cases is
  • 00:18:41
    larger than some small
  • 00:18:44
    countries we're exchanging over 800
  • 00:18:46
    pieces of normal polluting equipment
  • 00:18:50
    used by everyone else for green Energy
  • 00:18:53
    Zero pollution
  • 00:18:55
    operations we're installing 20 new
  • 00:18:58
    sophisticat software AI powered systems
  • 00:19:01
    to run our green energy infrastructure
  • 00:19:03
    continuously improving by
  • 00:19:06
    AI think the March we're getting on our
  • 00:19:09
    competitors will just get bigger and
  • 00:19:11
    bigger only in September we announced
  • 00:19:13
    the largest single equipment deal in our
  • 00:19:15
    history and we think in mining history
  • 00:19:17
    the single biggest mining equipment and
  • 00:19:20
    batter electric deal in history it's a
  • 00:19:23
    $4.2 billion single hit dollar
  • 00:19:26
    equivalent order for 360 mining trucks
  • 00:19:30
    55 electric excavators 60 Battery P
  • 00:19:32
    dozers all integrated with a
  • 00:19:35
    groundbreaking battery electric P system
  • 00:19:38
    developed inhouse by a technology har
  • 00:19:41
    inhouse from Oxford Britain across North
  • 00:19:45
    America great thinkers great inventors
  • 00:19:48
    all the way to Perth where some of the
  • 00:19:50
    great inventions of green energy will be
  • 00:19:53
    recorded worldwide but right
  • 00:19:56
    here so if anyone ever doubted our
  • 00:19:58
    commitment to real zero don't or whether
  • 00:20:01
    we could pull it off stay the course
  • 00:20:03
    with us this is surely the moment that
  • 00:20:06
    we begin to put those doubts to rest
  • 00:20:09
    we're leading the way ladies and
  • 00:20:10
    gentlemen to to show that
  • 00:20:13
    decarbonization of our entire diesel
  • 00:20:15
    Hall truck Fleet in the pilra within a
  • 00:20:18
    few years and we know we know ladies and
  • 00:20:21
    gentlemen that the tide is turning
  • 00:20:23
    across the mining world and therefore as
  • 00:20:26
    one of the hardest toate Industries in
  • 00:20:28
    the world
  • 00:20:29
    it will start to turn across the
  • 00:20:31
    industrial world and you turn industry
  • 00:20:34
    you turn the
  • 00:20:36
    planet so we know this because within
  • 00:20:39
    hours of unveiling that truck you saw
  • 00:20:42
    the first of these 240 ton green powered
  • 00:20:45
    trucks with our partner leave her there
  • 00:20:48
    was a line a conga line of mining
  • 00:20:49
    Executives from companies all over the
  • 00:20:51
    world now expressing great interest mlan
  • 00:20:54
    engineering one of the largest suppliers
  • 00:20:57
    of underground equip equipment of mining
  • 00:20:59
    equipment globally has joined us in our
  • 00:21:02
    real zero Mission as a result they
  • 00:21:04
    believe as we deliver for us we can
  • 00:21:06
    deliver for them as we will deliver for
  • 00:21:09
    others it was a seminal moment ladies
  • 00:21:12
    and gentlemen it showed how far we've
  • 00:21:15
    come from that small exploration company
  • 00:21:18
    to Global onon or minor Global critical
  • 00:21:22
    minerals Explorer and developer on par
  • 00:21:25
    with any of the
  • 00:21:27
    majors to our new existing Green
  • 00:21:30
    Technology Energy and metals leadership
  • 00:21:33
    our future ladies and gentlemen that I
  • 00:21:35
    believe will unlock enormous new
  • 00:21:38
    markets easily the scale of the iron or
  • 00:21:41
    business and it's that diversification
  • 00:21:44
    ladies and gentlemen which will deliver
  • 00:21:46
    for you our long-term and lawy
  • 00:21:49
    shareholders again and again and
  • 00:21:52
    again so look frankly I am thrilled to
  • 00:21:54
    bring you the details if yet another
  • 00:21:56
    example of this transformation
  • 00:21:58
    as part of that $4.22 billion do Aussie
  • 00:22:02
    Le her deal with forq zero we stand to
  • 00:22:05
    generate some 1.5 billion in Revenue
  • 00:22:09
    just from the supply of battery powered
  • 00:22:11
    systems we're ramping up our production
  • 00:22:14
    in Britain exploring how to do it faster
  • 00:22:17
    in North America Asia because these
  • 00:22:20
    electric powered systems are becoming in
  • 00:22:22
    hot
  • 00:22:23
    demand and of course we are rolling all
  • 00:22:28
    through through the
  • 00:22:29
    pilra so these Power Systems have been
  • 00:22:32
    designed and engineered by our Green
  • 00:22:33
    Technology arm forto keru mostly
  • 00:22:37
    manufactured as I've mentioned in the UK
  • 00:22:39
    but also across the world and this is
  • 00:22:40
    going to provide I believe even greater
  • 00:22:43
    value for you because it'll strengthen
  • 00:22:45
    our reputation as the world's leading
  • 00:22:48
    Green Technology provider certainly to
  • 00:22:50
    the mining industry if not also heavy
  • 00:22:52
    industry across the
  • 00:22:54
    world so as we all come here today we
  • 00:22:58
    know exactly what our mission is and we
  • 00:23:01
    know exactly how to achieve
  • 00:23:03
    it real Zero by 2030 is in our grasp
  • 00:23:08
    ladies and
  • 00:23:09
    gentlemen for years your company
  • 00:23:12
    steadfastly led the way towards a world
  • 00:23:14
    no longer held hostage by fossil fuel we
  • 00:23:18
    call the alarm on dead ends like carbon
  • 00:23:21
    capture and storage and to companies who
  • 00:23:23
    argue planting a few trees means they
  • 00:23:25
    can go build a new coal plant we call
  • 00:23:27
    them out for years those plagued by lack
  • 00:23:30
    of vision yes they're refusing to follow
  • 00:23:34
    in the past and even now but things are
  • 00:23:37
    changing and it has to change I speak to
  • 00:23:40
    now just very quickly but casually as a
  • 00:23:42
    scientist we're over 1.5 degrees ladies
  • 00:23:45
    and gentlemen but we support the UN to
  • 00:23:48
    say 1.5 degrees time is running out the
  • 00:23:50
    evidence is everywhere last Thursday the
  • 00:23:53
    Bureau of meteorology and the
  • 00:23:56
    CSO Australia's own scientific ific
  • 00:23:59
    organization released their biannual
  • 00:24:01
    stateof the climate
  • 00:24:03
    report which said there's more deaths
  • 00:24:06
    caused by excessive heat in Australia
  • 00:24:09
    now than any other natural hazard in our
  • 00:24:10
    history it found Australia is already
  • 00:24:13
    warmed by 1.51 Dees with more extreme
  • 00:24:16
    heat events longer bushire seasons and
  • 00:24:20
    fire Seasons more intense and heavy
  • 00:24:22
    rainfall causing floods rising sea
  • 00:24:25
    levels they say leaves Australia
  • 00:24:27
    uniquely vulnerable
  • 00:24:29
    well your company is doing its bit and
  • 00:24:31
    it's leading the way as heat and
  • 00:24:35
    humidity is ratting up the pressure here
  • 00:24:38
    in Australia and around the world it's
  • 00:24:41
    pushing Humanity closer to the limits of
  • 00:24:43
    survival in many parts of the world as I
  • 00:24:46
    speak the ferocity of storms now forming
  • 00:24:49
    in the superheated waters of Florida to
  • 00:24:52
    Europe to
  • 00:24:53
    Australia it's just evidence and that
  • 00:24:55
    evidence is everywhere recently
  • 00:24:58
    hurricane Milton in Florida caused over
  • 00:25:01
    50 billion US in damage one hurricane 50
  • 00:25:07
    billion such was the speed which had
  • 00:25:10
    intensified it had meteorologists
  • 00:25:13
    rewriting the textbooks on how to
  • 00:25:14
    predict A hurricane's
  • 00:25:16
    intensity it was a hurricane without
  • 00:25:20
    precedent
  • 00:25:22
    starting what we know is the utterly
  • 00:25:24
    predictable
  • 00:25:25
    Trend when the fossil fuel sector calls
  • 00:25:28
    out that this is a one-off sector or
  • 00:25:31
    Mayors and politicians say oh my God
  • 00:25:33
    this is so terrible how could it happen
  • 00:25:34
    can I tell you it's
  • 00:25:37
    predictable and we can still turn this
  • 00:25:39
    around if we work hard together both as
  • 00:25:41
    a business and as Nations at the UN
  • 00:25:44
    General Assembly in September and a
  • 00:25:47
    recent conventing of the Quad in
  • 00:25:49
    Delaware with the United States
  • 00:25:51
    President Australian Prime Ministers and
  • 00:25:53
    Indian prime ministers
  • 00:25:55
    Japanese where our sister company the M
  • 00:25:58
    Foundation announced announced its
  • 00:26:00
    commitment to ending cervical cancer in
  • 00:26:02
    the Endo
  • 00:26:03
    Pacific as the key to the cancer quads
  • 00:26:07
    cancer moonshot I called for business
  • 00:26:10
    and government to drop their net
  • 00:26:14
    2050 facade net isn't
  • 00:26:18
    real it's not because I'm a cent Deni of
  • 00:26:21
    course you can see the evidence in funny
  • 00:26:23
    but the opposite but because I know that
  • 00:26:25
    Net Zero doesn't cut it it doesn't get
  • 00:26:28
    us there we're experiencing the weather
  • 00:26:30
    events we are and the accelerating heat
  • 00:26:33
    because net fails us it's now well known
  • 00:26:36
    amongst the scientific community that
  • 00:26:38
    majority of the plant's boundaries
  • 00:26:40
    natural boundaries have been breached
  • 00:26:43
    and chief amongst these
  • 00:26:45
    threats are of course carbon dioxide
  • 00:26:48
    emissions and they're irreversibly
  • 00:26:51
    destabilizing Earth's systems and
  • 00:26:53
    ecosystems we don't see signs of a bait
  • 00:26:56
    and we have to do it ourselves ladies
  • 00:26:57
    and gentlemen
  • 00:26:59
    back only in the 60s we emitted 11
  • 00:27:02
    billion tons we're now emitting over 36
  • 00:27:04
    billion tons per year up three times the
  • 00:27:07
    trend is
  • 00:27:09
    accelerating and the world must Peak its
  • 00:27:12
    emissions before 2025 and then have them
  • 00:27:15
    by 2030 it's not going to happen happen
  • 00:27:17
    but that's the science that's the math
  • 00:27:20
    you can't argue with a mathematical
  • 00:27:22
    formula it's there to preserve 1.5
  • 00:27:25
    degrees so we know we have no time to to
  • 00:27:28
    wait now we must
  • 00:27:30
    act
  • 00:27:32
    ecosystems the carbon sinks which have
  • 00:27:34
    always protected humanity and organic
  • 00:27:36
    life are beginning to crumble now
  • 00:27:39
    they're not absorbing the carbon dioxide
  • 00:27:42
    they did the assumptions that that
  • 00:27:44
    continue at infin item are wrong and as
  • 00:27:47
    a result they're absorbing less and less
  • 00:27:49
    carbon dioxide so this is all proof that
  • 00:27:52
    net0
  • 00:27:54
    2050 as the United Nations endorsed
  • 00:27:57
    policy is an abject
  • 00:27:58
    failure Net Zero is commercially
  • 00:28:01
    self-serving to those who hold us
  • 00:28:04
    hostage and that is the fossil fuel
  • 00:28:06
    sector net got pushed into that language
  • 00:28:09
    as a word by the fossil fuel sector
  • 00:28:12
    before the Paris
  • 00:28:14
    agreement and the fossil fuel sector are
  • 00:28:16
    using it as a get out of jail freecard
  • 00:28:18
    and as I said to you ladies and
  • 00:28:20
    Gentlemen by 2030 you will have a large
  • 00:28:23
    Energy company which you will own
  • 00:28:25
    powering all of forcu and others
  • 00:28:28
    sure the the fight against us is massive
  • 00:28:33
    puts our mergence through BP and R and
  • 00:28:36
    the others into the iron or industry
  • 00:28:38
    into the shade but this time we're
  • 00:28:42
    strong this time we know what to do this
  • 00:28:45
    time we have the
  • 00:28:48
    weapons they've been devastatingly
  • 00:28:51
    effective for now but they will
  • 00:28:53
    lose this was the exact same delaying
  • 00:28:55
    offis scating and confusing strategy
  • 00:28:59
    which got played out by the tobacco
  • 00:29:01
    industry for 52 years before they had to
  • 00:29:04
    admit with scientific proof that they
  • 00:29:07
    are responsible for
  • 00:29:08
    cancer so let's change this narrative
  • 00:29:11
    ladies and gentlemen from Net Zero to
  • 00:29:13
    what foscue propagates and that's real
  • 00:29:15
    zero real zero for the World by 2040 you
  • 00:29:18
    will do it ladies and Gentlemen by
  • 00:29:20
    2030 so if foros skue a huge meter can
  • 00:29:24
    fully escape the group of the fossil
  • 00:29:27
    fuel sector by 2030 there's no reason
  • 00:29:30
    why the rest of the world can't do it by
  • 00:29:32
    10 years later 2040 we have the
  • 00:29:37
    technology we have the
  • 00:29:39
    capital it's a great
  • 00:29:42
    investment we just need the leadership
  • 00:29:44
    so I ask any heavy industry company any
  • 00:29:47
    chief executive around the world when
  • 00:29:49
    will you stop burning fossil fuel and
  • 00:29:51
    only a few of them will give you a date
  • 00:29:53
    if they say I can't say you're right
  • 00:29:55
    mate why didn't you get off this stage
  • 00:29:58
    and let in someone who can because your
  • 00:30:01
    company can it's the leadership which is
  • 00:30:04
    failing and forq can tell you exactly
  • 00:30:06
    how to do it this year we published a
  • 00:30:09
    gold standard climate transition plan
  • 00:30:11
    that will be updated every year for the
  • 00:30:12
    United Nations every business every
  • 00:30:14
    government must follow us in tackling
  • 00:30:17
    this problem transparently and head on
  • 00:30:20
    and we're not alone ladies and gentlemen
  • 00:30:22
    we're now being joined working together
  • 00:30:25
    peacefully and this means of course all
  • 00:30:28
    also GRE hydrogen GRE hydrogen is
  • 00:30:30
    critical to decarbonizing Industry steel
  • 00:30:33
    shipping Aviation all the hard to obate
  • 00:30:37
    sectors that can't be electrified can
  • 00:30:41
    be released from the grip of the fossil
  • 00:30:43
    fuel sector by Green hydrogen and that's
  • 00:30:46
    why it's C so much criticism that's why
  • 00:30:48
    it's lobbied so hard against because it
  • 00:30:51
    is the death no for the fossil fuel
  • 00:30:54
    sector and of course it's going to be
  • 00:30:56
    critical for us to build a massive new
  • 00:30:58
    Green Iron Metal industry in the pilra
  • 00:31:01
    this I feel is a once in a generation
  • 00:31:03
    opportunity to build perhaps Australia's
  • 00:31:05
    largest ever single industry we ship 3/4
  • 00:31:08
    of a billion tons of iron oil a year for
  • 00:31:12
    3/4 of a trillion dollar we're going to
  • 00:31:14
    double or triple that in revenues if we
  • 00:31:17
    change all that to iron
  • 00:31:20
    forq is wasting no time to seize that
  • 00:31:23
    opportunity to lead the
  • 00:31:26
    way so ladies and gentlemen gentlemen
  • 00:31:28
    fellow
  • 00:31:29
    shareholders we all know Net Zero is far
  • 00:31:32
    far easier you can get it by buying a
  • 00:31:35
    few credits than real zero it's
  • 00:31:38
    Innovation it's change it's just hard
  • 00:31:40
    work but the payback speaks for itself
  • 00:31:42
    seizing these opportunities creates
  • 00:31:44
    tremendous value for the company and
  • 00:31:46
    therefore for you our
  • 00:31:47
    shareholders so I say in closing as we
  • 00:31:49
    look Beyond 2025 I know we are on track
  • 00:31:52
    to change the world for the
  • 00:31:54
    better and on behalf of all of my
  • 00:31:58
    leadership team all of the
  • 00:32:01
    21,000 family members of
  • 00:32:03
    forq I wish to thank you
  • 00:32:06
    shareholders for believing in us we're
  • 00:32:10
    changing the world because of everyone
  • 00:32:13
    at foscue and your determination
  • 00:32:16
    shareholders to stay the course with us
  • 00:32:19
    we are foros skue thank you

    tranto medal chief executive floor is
  • 00:32:34
    yours
  • 00:32:39
    sir what a hard act to follow thank you
  • 00:32:43
    chairman uh and thank you all for taking
  • 00:32:46
    the time today to join us for our annual
  • 00:32:48
    general meeting I'd also like to thank
  • 00:32:50
    Trevor for that amazing welcome to
  • 00:32:52
    Country uh and as we've mentioned 2024
  • 00:32:56
    was a defining year for for us at foris
  • 00:32:59
    we continue to challenge the status quo
  • 00:33:02
    achieve our stretch targets whilst never
  • 00:33:06
    ever losing sight of keeping our
  • 00:33:08
    teammates safe delivery is key to
  • 00:33:12
    everything we do at forcu and that's
  • 00:33:14
    evident in the progress we've made this
  • 00:33:16
    year we commenced construction of our
  • 00:33:19
    green medals project in the
  • 00:33:20
    pilra we deployed the first of many of
  • 00:33:24
    our zero emissions mining Fleet we
  • 00:33:27
    finished building a 100 megawatt solar
  • 00:33:30
    farm at Northstar Junction the first of
  • 00:33:33
    over 1 gaw we will build before the end
  • 00:33:35
    of the decade we are well into ramping
  • 00:33:38
    up Ironbridge our most Innovative
  • 00:33:41
    project to date and we continued to
  • 00:33:44
    advance our Metals portfolio with first
  • 00:33:47
    or from our flying fish deposits and
  • 00:33:50
    Hall Hub at Christmas Creek in Gabon we
  • 00:33:54
    completed early stage mining with our
  • 00:33:57
    Focus now now on exploration drilling
  • 00:34:00
    studies and our pioneering billing
  • 00:34:03
    opportunities program continued to
  • 00:34:05
    succeed with more than five billion
  • 00:34:08
    Aussie dollars in contracts awarded to
  • 00:34:10
    First Nations businesses since
  • 00:34:14
    2011 we achieved all this while
  • 00:34:17
    maintaining cost discipline and a
  • 00:34:19
    balance sheet that's the Envy of our
  • 00:34:21
    peers of course no year is without its
  • 00:34:25
    challenges but what is important in is
  • 00:34:27
    how we respond and at foris skue we
  • 00:34:30
    tackle challenges head-on none more so
  • 00:34:33
    than the team rallying together at the
  • 00:34:36
    end of last year to face a derailment in
  • 00:34:39
    our
  • 00:34:40
    business it was through our never ever
  • 00:34:44
    ever give up mindset that we achieved
  • 00:34:46
    what many thought was impossible
  • 00:34:48
    shipping
  • 00:34:57
    q1 shipments of
  • 00:35:00
    47.7 million tons our best start
  • 00:35:05
    ever and our business is not just about
  • 00:35:08
    today it's about delivering value for
  • 00:35:11
    you all well into the future and our
  • 00:35:13
    future starts right now in decarbonizing
  • 00:35:17
    our business by rethinking the entire
  • 00:35:20
    Iron and Steel value chain we can
  • 00:35:23
    produce an entirely new product a green
  • 00:35:27
    industry
  • 00:35:28
    here in
  • 00:35:30
    Australia but we can't sit by and watch
  • 00:35:34
    this opportunity pass us we need to lean
  • 00:35:37
    in move quickly and seize it with both
  • 00:35:40
    hands and our track record shows we're
  • 00:35:43
    not afraid to move first for esc's pivot
  • 00:35:47
    to Green Iron oil will be our point of
  • 00:35:49
    difference and our competitive
  • 00:35:52
    advantage and there is an incredible
  • 00:35:54
    opportunity in grein
  • 00:35:55
    medal but if if this new industry is to
  • 00:35:59
    truly succeed in Australia we cannot do
  • 00:36:02
    this alone now it's more important than
  • 00:36:06
    ever for political and Industry
  • 00:36:09
    leadership alike to join at the hip the
  • 00:36:12
    cost of green energy is still a
  • 00:36:14
    significant challenge here in Australia
  • 00:36:17
    and a barrier to getting a green metal
  • 00:36:20
    industry off the ground which will
  • 00:36:23
    revolutionize Australia for the Next
  • 00:36:25
    Generation with the help of the Govern I
  • 00:36:28
    firmly believe we can establish a new
  • 00:36:31
    green metal industry here in the pilra
  • 00:36:34
    that will serve our country and create
  • 00:36:36
    jobs for generations to come forcu has
  • 00:36:40
    never been in better shape and the key
  • 00:36:42
    to this success is the more than
  • 00:36:46
    21,000 people some of those who are here
  • 00:36:48
    today that make up our family and as
  • 00:36:51
    shareholders in foris cuq you can be
  • 00:36:54
    confident we are well positioned into
  • 00:36:56
    the future thank you very much and I'll
  • 00:36:58
    now hand over to
  • 00:37:06
    Hutch thank you Dino um big welcome this
  • 00:37:09
    morning and thank you so much for
  • 00:37:11
    coming we have a very clear Mission
  • 00:37:14
    that's driving us and everything we're
  • 00:37:16
    doing here at foris skew we need to show
  • 00:37:18
    the world we can eliminate fossil fuels
  • 00:37:20
    but do it profitably it's not easy but
  • 00:37:24
    nothing worth doing ever is luckily that
  • 00:37:27
    is where forcu R We R the
  • 00:37:31
    challenge that's what we've been doing
  • 00:37:33
    for 21 years pushing boundaries and
  • 00:37:35
    testing limits providing doubs Wrong by
  • 00:37:38
    delivering very strong
  • 00:37:40
    results just a few years ago people told
  • 00:37:43
    us it wasn't possible to decarbon our
  • 00:37:46
    operations by
  • 00:37:47
    2030 you'll have to wait until 2040 2050
  • 00:37:50
    for the technology and the machines to
  • 00:37:52
    be ready we could have just sat back and
  • 00:37:55
    waited instead we're done us eles we've
  • 00:37:59
    developed the Solutions in house
  • 00:38:01
    bringing together the best engineering
  • 00:38:03
    mins in the world to create our own for
  • 00:38:06
    skew
  • 00:38:07
    Technologies electric excavators
  • 00:38:10
    hydrogen powered and Battery electric
  • 00:38:12
    Hall trucks large fast Chargers and the
  • 00:38:15
    Battery Systems and software needed to
  • 00:38:17
    use it efficiently are now available on
  • 00:38:20
    site in the pill being used
  • 00:38:23
    today these green technologies will
  • 00:38:25
    decarbonize for first but that's just
  • 00:38:28
    the
  • 00:38:29
    start we're now working to sell the same
  • 00:38:32
    Solutions and products to other heavy
  • 00:38:35
    industry players who need also to
  • 00:38:37
    eliminate their
  • 00:38:39
    emissions as our chairman mentioned last
  • 00:38:41
    month we unveiled our autonomous battery
  • 00:38:43
    electric t264 truck to the
  • 00:38:47
    world as you heard it was a significant
  • 00:38:49
    order over4 billion doar contract signed
  • 00:38:52
    with Liber but a big part of that
  • 00:38:54
    actually does flow back to forq Z
  • 00:38:58
    this means that a significant value will
  • 00:39:00
    come back to the company our Battery
  • 00:39:03
    Systems will do do more than just
  • 00:39:05
    decarbonize our mining operations we're
  • 00:39:08
    also going to partner with others around
  • 00:39:10
    the world including in the us where we
  • 00:39:13
    have our manufacturing center they ready
  • 00:39:14
    to
  • 00:39:15
    go our Alysia team also signed a
  • 00:39:19
    multi-billion dollar partnership with
  • 00:39:20
    Jago Landrover to deploy their battery
  • 00:39:23
    intelligence software on the next
  • 00:39:25
    generation of electronic vehicles
  • 00:39:28
    what's clear is there is a huge demand
  • 00:39:30
    and a gap in the market for what we're
  • 00:39:32
    creating and foris skew is being
  • 00:39:34
    recognized for leading this
  • 00:39:37
    way the green Pioneer is a testament to
  • 00:39:41
    that our dual fueled ammonia powered
  • 00:39:43
    vessel was debuted to the world almost a
  • 00:39:45
    year ago and since then it's been named
  • 00:39:47
    a winner at the world hydrogen Awards
  • 00:39:50
    after successfully completing our trials
  • 00:39:52
    and being certified in the port of
  • 00:39:55
    Singapore this is a sign significant
  • 00:39:57
    Milestone and brings the world one step
  • 00:40:00
    closer to Green
  • 00:40:02
    shipping what we're doing is real and we
  • 00:40:05
    continue to drive value for you our
  • 00:40:07
    shareholders let's turn to energy
  • 00:40:10
    projects our goal is to play our part in
  • 00:40:13
    decarbonizing the world by producing
  • 00:40:15
    renewable energy around the world at
  • 00:40:18
    scale this will be in the form of green
  • 00:40:21
    electrons and green
  • 00:40:23
    molecules as we do this we will always
  • 00:40:26
    keep our strong financial discipline at
  • 00:40:28
    the very center of every decision that
  • 00:40:30
    we
  • 00:40:31
    make for SKU is maintaining a portfolio
  • 00:40:34
    projects which show significant
  • 00:40:36
    potential for decarbonization and
  • 00:40:39
    economic growth we have projects in

    248
  • 00:44:53
    proxies today um my question question
  • 00:44:57

  • 00:45:01
    energy we certainly appreciate the
  • 00:45:04
    comments you made hutch in the
  • 00:45:06
    Progressive Way you're leading that
  • 00:45:08
    division on the one hand we have forcu
  • 00:45:11
    Metals being a leader in transition to
  • 00:45:13
    low emissions and in parallel achieving
  • 00:45:17
    enviable financial performance and on
  • 00:45:20
    the other hand we have forcu energy at
  • 00:45:22
    The Cutting Edge of the new green
  • 00:45:25
    technologies but incurring losses of 659
  • 00:45:30
    million and 6117 million Us in the last
  • 00:45:34
    two
  • 00:45:37
    years we accept that research
  • 00:45:40
    development uh going forward in the
  • 00:45:42
    green World cost a lot of money cost a
  • 00:45:45
    lot of time and and and a lot of effort
  • 00:45:48
    that's fully understood as we head
  • 00:45:51
    towards this low emission technology
  • 00:45:53
    situation but shareholders feel that the
  • 00:45:57
    reporting of those losses has been very
  • 00:46:00
    very limited we have the we have the
  • 00:46:03
    gross numbers but we feel as
  • 00:46:05
    shareholders that there should be
  • 00:46:08
    some detailed reporting on the material
  • 00:46:11
    items where that money has gone and has
  • 00:46:14
    been expended and invested in effect we
  • 00:46:18
    feel just giving those totals and then
  • 00:46:21
    consolidating under forc
  • 00:46:23
    one uh shareholders don't have that
  • 00:46:26
    right right to understand where those
  • 00:46:28
    significant monies have gone and and
  • 00:46:31
    accounted for so we would appreciate
  • 00:46:34
    some clarity in that
  • 00:46:43
    regard uh thank you Roy um I don't think
  • 00:46:46

  • 00:49:49

  • 00:50:04
    my goodness three years has gone very
  • 00:50:06
    quickly uh and what a three years it's
  • 00:50:08
    been uh and as some of you may well be
  • 00:50:11
    aware this is my second stint as a
  • 00:50:14
    director of this great business uh and
  • 00:50:16
    at the risk of sounding like a cliche
  • 00:50:19
    ridden uh jobbing uh football pundit uh
  • 00:50:22
    it really has been for me a game of two
  • 00:50:26
    halves
  • 00:50:27
    uh and the first half I was very
  • 00:50:29
    privileged uh to witness the Genesis and
  • 00:50:32
    the growth uh of this extraordinary
  • 00:50:35
    Metals business driven by uh the
  • 00:50:37
    Visionary doctor uh sitting to my left
  • 00:50:41
    who simply saw things that few others
  • 00:50:45
    did uh and I'm here to tell you that he
  • 00:50:48
    still does and to the challenge of the
  • 00:50:50
    board sometimes uh by the hour uh today
  • 00:50:55
    I'm hoping uh that you will grant me
  • 00:50:58
    another term uh in my second stint uh
  • 00:51:03
    some of you will also know that I'm
  • 00:51:05
    currently pitching for another job in
  • 00:51:07
    sport some have described it as the last
  • 00:51:11
    great race I will re run but what I can
  • 00:51:14
    tell you uh is that the most important
  • 00:51:17
    race I'm running I think I'm joined by
  • 00:51:20
    all of you uh and that is
  • 00:51:24
    the race against the un
  • 00:51:27
    controlled March of climate change uh

  • 00:51:33
    save the planet and I know of no other
  • 00:51:37
    uh more important race uh that is why
  • 00:51:40
    I'm here at Fortis skew and I know of no
  • 00:51:43
    other company your company uh that is
  • 00:51:47

    currently president of world Athletics I
  • 00:51:52

  • 00:51:55
    the sport in 2113 countries and let me
  • 00:51:58

    most successful thing that you've

    achieved in the last term in regarding
  • 00:57:01
    to deal with modern day slavery and also
  • 00:57:03
    in regard to supply supply chain
  • 00:57:06
    operations and procurements and uh are
  • 00:57:09
    you aware of the recent European court
  • 00:57:11
    of justice legal ruling upon Western
  • 00:57:13
    Sahara as a territory distinct from
  • 00:57:16
    Morocco and with the right of
  • 00:57:19
    self-determination uh this ruled
  • 00:57:21
    considered and rejected the legality of
  • 00:57:24
    Morocco's extraction of resources like
  • 00:57:26
    fish from occupied Western s Sahara it
  • 00:57:29
    also affirmed that psaria the official
  • 00:57:32
    recognized author authorities
  • 00:57:34
    representing Sahari people Western
  • 00:57:36
    Sahari resource watch have been
  • 00:57:38
    recording and monitoring the alleged
  • 00:57:40
    theft for many years and produce a well
  • 00:57:43
    research document on the issue um
  • 00:57:45
    interesting modern modern resource theft
  • 00:57:49
    uh items as passive energy such as wind
  • 00:57:52
    and solar which can be transferred
  • 00:57:54
    across land without the permission of
  • 00:57:56
    the non-self-governing country western
  • 00:57:58
    Sahara while it is seen as a passive and
  • 00:58:01
    renewable the infrastructure associated
  • 00:58:05
    with its production and transmission
  • 00:58:07
    further dispossesses the saharis of
  • 00:58:09
    their land and emboldens the the
  • 00:58:11
    Moroccan State this could be Pro
  • 00:58:13
    problematic for foris skew as it means
  • 00:58:16
    that foris skew is contributing to the
  • 00:58:18
    ongoing brutalization of the indigenous
  • 00:58:20
    people of Western Sahara under the
  • 00:58:22
    occupation of Morocco uh in regard to
  • 00:58:25
    commercial dealing with Western Sahara
  • 00:58:28
    what that that involved natural
  • 00:58:29
    resources from the last colony of Africa
  • 00:58:32
    uh you might be aware of the Amnesty
  • 00:58:33
    International report on Western Sahara
  • 00:58:36
    suana Kaya and the political presence
  • 00:58:39
    that uh International J jurists have
  • 00:58:42
    cast out over the legality of the
  • 00:58:45
    imprisonment has foris here given any
  • 00:58:47
    consideration to the ethics and legal
  • 00:58:50
    risk of operating um in this
  • 00:58:54
    area sorry um in the imprisonment of
  • 00:58:58
    political prisoners who have demanded a
  • 00:59:00
    referendum and the end of Morocco LED
  • 00:59:02
    resource extraction in the
  • 00:59:04
    territory well thank you those are all
  • 00:59:07
    really important questions I think there
  • 00:59:09
    were three in there and um I'll take
  • 00:59:11
    them and be brief but please after the
  • 00:59:15
    session come up and we can talk in more
  • 00:59:17
    detail first of all on supply chain the
  • 00:59:20
    big issue on supply chain is track and
  • 00:59:22
    tracing where your supply chain
  • 00:59:24
    originates and what happens along the
  • 00:59:26
    way right we have worked very diligently
  • 00:59:30
    in the fund to create both digital ways
  • 00:59:33
    and real ways uh to to track those
  • 00:59:36
    Supply chains and we've had a big advant
  • 00:59:38
    we've had big results in developing
  • 00:59:41
    technology but we're not where we need
  • 00:59:43
    to be um and that's an ongoing effort
  • 00:59:46
    and I will tell you from foris sk's
  • 00:59:49
    vantage point we look very carefully at
  • 00:59:52
    our entire supply chain and verify there
  • 00:59:55
    is no slave reinforced labor in it and I
  • 00:59:57
    can talk in more detail about that with
  • 00:59:59
    any of you who' like to talk afterwards
  • 01:00:02
    secondly on the global Fund in modern
  • 01:00:05
    slavery you know it was 10 12 years ago
  • 01:00:09
    I met this young man at Clinton Global
  • 01:00:13
    initiative and we bonded on the fight
  • 01:00:16
    against modern slavery and with Andrew's
  • 01:00:19
    help globally we've identified three
  • 01:00:22
    things that needed to happen there
  • 01:00:23
    needed to be a movement there needed to
  • 01:00:25
    be a fund and there needed to be data
  • 01:00:27
    because we really didn't understand the
  • 01:00:29
    nature of the problem and if you look
  • 01:00:31
    over that time period slavery's actually
  • 01:00:33
    gone up that's because we're identifying
  • 01:00:35
    pockets and places where it exists and
  • 01:00:37
    we're going after it hard in many ways
  • 01:00:40
    but what's frustrating is that we need
  • 01:00:42
    to continue to keep a focus on it and I
  • 01:00:44
    will tell you that both Andrew and I are
  • 01:00:46
    going to talk about the Nexus between
  • 01:00:48
    modern slavery and climate change at the
  • 01:00:50
    upcoming cop meeting because there is a
  • 01:00:52
    Nexus between slavery and the
  • 01:00:55
    degradation of the environment and then
  • 01:00:57
    finally on West Sahara this board is
  • 01:01:00
    very aware of everything you mentioned
  • 01:01:02
    and we're going to take that under an
  • 01:01:04
    advisement currently we do not operate
  • 01:01:06
    there but we will clearly listen
  • 01:01:08
    carefully to everything you've said we
  • 01:01:10
    talked about it yesterday and and um as
  • 01:01:13
    time wears on you will see what we're
  • 01:01:15
    going to do
  • 01:01:17
    there all right but see me afterwards
  • 01:01:27
    are there any further
  • 01:01:32
    questions if there are no further
  • 01:01:34
