Full Summary

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited (EOS) has become aware of media articles reporting on strong growth in defence spending in Europe and the possibility of EOS shifting its headquarters and stock market listing from Australia to Europe to capitalize on this growth. In response, EOS has stated that based on public announcements by various governments, it expects continued high growth in global market demand for defence technology, particularly in Europe, over the next five to ten years. EOS aims to capitalize on these expected market growth opportunities by continuing to grow its presence in Europe. However, the Board has made no unannounced decisions in relation to changing the location of EOS' corporate headquarters or stock market listing, and the Board currently has no plans under consideration in this regard. Any such decisions would only be made by the Board after full and comprehensive consideration of the merits of each location and the impact on customers, shareholders, employees, and other stakeholders. EOS regularly considers a wide range of factors that contribute to maximizing shareholder value and will continue to assess potential growth opportunities and the best way to realize these, including in Europe, during 2026 and beyond. The company will keep the market informed as any changes arise.

Outlook

EOS will continue to assess potential growth opportunities and the best way to realize these, including in Europe, during 2026 and beyond. This may lead to changes in EOS' market presence, production facilities, equity listing, headquarters, operating locations, business portfolio, and/or other aspects of the EOS business in the future.
