Chairman’s Report 
For the year ended 31 December 2024 
Mr Garry Hounsell 
Director and Chair of the Board of Directors 
4 April 2025 
2024 represented the second full year in EOS’ 
turnaround plan, and I can advise that EOS is now on 
a much more stable footing and is well positioned to 
capture the exciting opportunities ahead of it. 
During 2024, conflicts continued throughout many 
regions of the world. Further, the ever-expanding 
number of cheap and increasingly autonomous drones 
is transforming the nature of modern warfare. This is 
causing an enduring and growing demand for the types 
of products EOS produces.  
In recognition of these changes, during the year the 
Board decided to change the growth emphasis of 
EOS, to focus on the growth markets of counter-drone 
products (including remote weapon systems and high 
energy laser weapons) as well as on space control 
products and services. 
As well as generating the highest total annual revenue 
in its long history, 2024 saw EOS shift its focus to 
developing its order book and commercialising the 
new products that have been launched in recent years. 
EOS’ customers – generally governments – have well 
established and prudent procurement processes. This 
can sometimes mean that it takes longer to sign new 
contracts than in other industries. The good news is that, 
as we have seen previously, contracts can be very large. 
In 2024, EOS management was focused on developing 
its chosen markets and progressing contractual 
negotiations with a number of potential customers. 
The Board looks forward to this work creating order 
book growth in the coming months and years. 
In March 2024, the Group undertook a modest $35m 
institutional placement, supplemented by a share 
purchase plan for existing retail investors. The purpose 
of this fundraising was to ensure that EOS was able to 
procure long lead time items, allowing the business to 
be more responsive to existing and potential customer 
needs. The Board wishes to thank the investors who 
supported EOS in this process. 
In November 2024, the Group announced that it had 
entered into an agreement to sell its naval satellite 
communications business, EM Solutions, to Cohort 
plc for an enterprise value of $144m. EM Solutions has 
performed well since it was acquired by EOS in 2019 and 
the Board did not take the decision to divest it lightly. 
Ultimately, it was determined that EM Solutions was 
strategically non-core to the rest of the Group and that 
it would be more optimal to use funds raised in its sale 
to invest in the core business. EOS is grateful to the 
Australian Commonwealth Government and Department 
of Defence for their support in the sale of EM Solutions. 
The sale of EM Solutions was completed on 31 January 
2025, triggering the automatic and full repayment of the 
debt held by Soul Patts (formerly Washington H Soul 
Pattinson). EOS is grateful to Soul Patts for its support 
during a difficult period. This repayment leaves EOS 
with no borrowings as at the end of January 2025 and a 
strong balance sheet, capable of supporting EOS’ growth 
agenda for the future. The Board remains committed to 
investing these funds strategically and prudently. 
The Board believes that EOS’ focus on the counter-drone 
and space domains is the right strategy to deliver growth. 
I wish to thank EOS’ senior management, its broader 
staff and the Board for their contributions to what was a 
highly positive year for the business. 
Overall, EOS enters 2025 in an enviable position, with a 
clear strategy, strong markets, innovative products and 
a robust balance sheet. The Board would like to thank 
shareholders for their ongoing support of EOS, and 
we look forward to the exciting things to come for the 
business in 2025. 
The Board is pleased to report on a 
successful year for EOS

CEO’s Report 
For the year ended 31 December 2024 
At EOS, we see exciting opportunities 
for growth and are working hard to 
grow our order book 
We are focused on delivering growth in: 
• counter-drone products, remote weapon systems and 
high energy laser weapons; and 
• space control product and services. 
Our main effort in 2024 was spent on progressing sales 
discussions with existing customers and potential new 
customers around the world. 
In our Defence Systems business, we continued to see 
success for our world-leading counter-drone offering, 
the Slinger system. The system has been sold to various 
clients and is now being used successfully in Ukraine. 
We have provided several other customers with smaller 
evaluation quantities of both the Slinger system and our 
traditional R400 remote weapon system. We hope to 
secure further orders in due course from this evaluation 
work. In late 2024, we also announced the first sale 
of our new container-based, rocket-carrying remote 
weapon system to a Western European customer. 
In 2024, EOS’ highly capable engineering teams began 
work on a ‘next-generation’ remote weapon system, 
the R500. It incorporates all the lessons learned from 
operations in various conflicts as well as the latest 
technological advances, such as fully AI-driven software 
for detection, classification and tracking of targets. We 
expect it to be well received by the international markets. 
Good progress was made in 2024 in developing the 
markets for the newer products in our portfolio. These 
include our heavy-calibre R800 system and light-weight 
R150 system, which were both launched in 2023. 
Feedback from the market has been positive – we look 
forward to securing more contracts in due course. 
2024 was a watershed year for the directed energy 
weapon market. These products are seen as a vital 
counter-measure to the emerging drone threat. EOS 
remains extremely well positioned to sell its High Energy 
Laser Weapon into this emerging market, particularly 
outside the United States. Due to its very low cost-
per-shot, high accuracy, speed and large ‘magazine’, 
the HELW represents a potential ‘game-changer’ for 
the protection of critical assets during conflict. We are 
working to secure customer contracts and future growth 
for this product. 
In 2024, the Space Systems business was proud to work 
with the Australian Defence Force to develop capabilities 
for Australia. We also continue to grow and execute on 
our Space growth strategy – using our unique expertise 
in space domain awareness and laser optics to affect 
objects in space. This is known in the industry as ‘space 
control’. This is an emerging market that has significant 
growth potential in the military domain. 
As you know, we sold the EM Solutions business in 
January 2025. This followed strong growth by that 
business – but, as our Chairman has outlined, this 
strategic decision was the right one for EOS and will 
allow us to focus more on our future core businesses. 
I would like to thank the EM Solutions team for their hard 
work during the 2024 year. 
Ensuring that the EOS management team has 
suitable depth and skills was a key 2024 focus for me. 
Investment in sales capability will maximise the chances 
of winning more and larger contracts over time. A 
highlight in this regard was the employment of Christian 
Tobergte as Executive Vice President, Defence Systems 
International in April 2024. His focus is on developing 
international markets for EOS Defence Systems products. 
I wish to acknowledge all the employees at EOS whose 
hard work and dedication have ensured 2024 has been a 
year of great success and who have laid the groundwork 
for further success to come.

The Urgent Drone Threat 
Recent conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East have 
proven that drones now pose a highly credible real-world 
threat to military and civil assets, infrastructure and 
personnel. 
It is also clear that this threat is not a passing one; drones 
are now an established fixture of the modern battlefield. 
As a result, counter-drone technologies that can defend 
against drone incursions – efficiently, reliably and cost-
effectively – have become a critical capability for modern 
defence forces. 
An agile, evolving technology 
Drones are cheap to make, easy to deploy and can be 
used for both surveillance activities and direct attacks. 
Their small size and high manoeuvrability make them 
difficult to detect, and they can damage and destroy a 
wide range of military and other targets – from naval 
assets to ground vehicles to critical infrastructure. 
The ease with which drones can be assembled, using 
commercially available components, and then converted 
into attack systems lends them a real ‘disposability’. 
Technological advances – including in artificial 
intelligence (AI), which may soon enable ‘autonomous 
synchronisation’ of drone swarms – look set to increase 
the potency of drones over time. 
In future conflicts we believe that it is likely that 
whichever side can field the most efficient, scalable, cost-
effective drone and counter-drone technologies will have 
a real military advantage. 
A need for solutions 
There is widespread acknowledgement in the global 
defence community that conventional weapon systems 
are often unsuited to the task of detecting, tracking and 
neutralising drone threats in any cost-effective manner. 
Defence forces around the world – including in the US – 
are therefore prioritising the development and acquisition 
of technologies that can counteract the drone threat. 
This represents a significant commercial opportunity for 
EOS. 
The ever increasing use of drones in military contexts has fundamentally 
altered modern warfare and national security

EOS Counter-Drone Technology 
Slinger 
EOS’ Slinger is a leading-edge hard-kill system that offers 
users a decisive advantage in counter-drone operations. 
The battle-tested platform integrates a threat-detecting 
targeting radar (featuring EOS’ proprietary electro-optical 
sensors) and a stabilised four-axis gimbal. 
Capable of being fitted with a range of weapons – 
including machine guns, cannons, rockets and missiles 
– the system can defeat manoeuvring drones at 
significantly longer ranges than competitor products. 
High Energy Laser Weapon 
EOS’ formidable high energy laser weapon has been 
designed to engage drone targets at a range up to 4 km 
at an economical cost-per-shot. 
Equipped with a laser capable of delivering energy 
levels of 50–100 kW, the weapon was designed to be 
complemented by both soft and hard kill effectors, 
offering layered protection to friendly forces, assets and 
infrastructure. 
To ensure high performance, it is supplied with fast-
cueing algorithms and with radar, infrared threat 
detection, and target acquisition and beam locking 
systems. 
If a continuous power supply is unavailable, the system 
can conduct up to 500 engagements before its battery 
is exhausted – enough to defeat an entire drone swarm. 
With continuous power, its ammunition and operation 
time are greatly extended. 
EOS’ main longstanding activity is in manufacturing ground-to-ground remote weapon systems. We have used this 
expertise to develop world-leading counter-drone systems. 
Today, we design, develop and manufacture highly accurate and precise counter-drone solutions for force and asset 
protection. 
Our counter-drone solutions include both kinetic and high energy laser options that excel at defeating drone threats 
effectively and at a comparatively low cost per shot. 
EOS is a world leader in high-precision counter-drone technology

CAREER SPOTLIGHT 
Chantelle Nosworthy 
Assistant Production Manager 
Chantelle Nosworthy, Assistant 
Production Manager at EOS’ flagship 
Queanbeyan production facility, has 
come a long way since her days as a self-
described ‘stay-at-home mum’ – albeit 
one with a knack for disassembling and 
rebuilding lawnmowers. 
Since starting at EOS as a Production 
Technician in 2017, Chantelle has, she 
says, ‘picked up and done things that, 
honestly, I never thought I would do’. In 
the process, she has progressed through 
a series of roles that have seen her take 
on increasing levels of responsibility at 
EOS’ bustling Queanbeyan site. 
Each new experience, she says, only 
‘made [her] want to figure out more’ 
about what makes the business – and 
its technologies – tick. ‘I took on more 
responsibility wherever I could.’

Review of Operations 
1. Results for the year ended 31 December 
2024 
For Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited and its 
subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group” or “EOS”), revenue 
from continuing operations activities was $176.6m, 
representing a $14.6m or 9 per cent increase compared 
to the prior year (2023: $162.0m). 
The loss before tax from continuing operations was 
$38.5m, compared to a loss of $55.6m in the prior year. 
Underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, 
and amortisation (“EBITDA”)1 from continuing operations 
(prior to foreign exchange gains and other one-off 
adjustments) for the year was a loss of $12.9m, 
representing a decrease of $0.1m compared to the prior 
year (2023: $13.0m loss). Further detail is disclosed on 
the following page. 
The Group reported an operating loss after tax from 
continuing operations of $35.1m for the year (2023: 
$44.3m loss). 
Continuing operations does not include the financial 
results of EM Solutions Pty Limited and its subsidiary 
(“EMS”) for either the current or the comparative period. 
On 21 November 2024, the Group announced the sale of a 
subsidiary, EMS. The activities of EMS are disclosed as a 
discontinued operation at 31 December 2024 and detailed 
in Note 5 to the financial statements. After the end of the 
year EOS announced the completion of a transaction to 
divest 100% of the equity in EMS as well as full repayment 
of the outstanding debt facilities owed to Washington H. 
Soul Pattinson (“WHSP”). Further details are set out in the 
sections below. 
The Group reported net cash outflows from operations 
(including EMS) for the year totalling $30.4m (2023: 
$113.1m net cash inflows). In addition, the Group 
reported $3.7m of net cash inflows from investing 
activities (2023: $34.7m of net cash outflows). The net 
cash inflows from financing activities for the year was 
$9.2m, due to equity capital fund raising of $35m during 
the year. The cash inflows from financing activities were 
reduced by the repayment of WHSP debt (2023: net cash 
outflows $29.1m). 
At 31 December 2024, the Group held cash totalling 
$52.3m consisting of $41.1m from continuing operations, 
and $11.2m from discontinued operations which is 
included in assets classified as held for sale (2023: 
$71.0m Group total consisting of $51.5m from continuing 
operations, and $19.5m from discontinued operations). 
In addition, the Group had $56.1m of restricted cash 
security deposits consisting of $49.5m from continuing 
operations, and $6.6m from discontinued operations 
(2023: $67.1m Group total, including $6.6m for 
discontinued operations). 
Key elements of financial performance are summarised 
below: 
1.1 Revenue 
For the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group 
recorded revenue from continuing operations of $176.6m 
(2023: $162.0m), representing an increase of $14.4m or 9 
per cent. 
The increase in revenue was driven partly by higher 
Defence Systems segment revenue, up from $155.4m in 
2023 to $165.7m in 2024, an increase of $10.3m. More 
detailed information is provided in Section 4 below. 
Revenue in the Space Systems segment (excluding EMS) 
also increased on prior year to $10.8m (2023: $6.7m). 
More detailed information is provided in Section 4 below. 
The underlying cause of the 2024 revenue increase 
was higher activity levels, including on the delivery of a 
Defence Systems contract to a customer in the Middle 
East, the delivery of a contract to a Western European 
Government and the commencement of new space 
capability contracts with the Commonwealth of Australia. 
At 31 December 2024, the Group (excluding EMS) had an 
order book backlog of unconditional contracted future 
work of approximately $135.6m. This represents work 
under customer contracts, mainly in Defence Systems. 
The size of this order book at 31 December 2024 is 
smaller than expected because some opportunities that 
were targeted to be secured in 2024 are taking longer 
than expected to develop. The order book backlog is 
currently expected to be converted to revenue principally 
in 2025 and 2026. 
In addition to the unconditional contracted order book, 
EOS had conditional orders with Ukrainian customers 
to a total value of A$181.0m. More details are set out in 
section 4 below. 
We continue to work on various opportunities and aim to 
grow the order book during 2025. 
As at 25 February 2025 
¹ Underlying EBITDA represents earnings before finance costs, depreciation, amortisation and taxation expense, discontinued operations, and one-off items. This is a non-IFRS and 
unaudited measure which provides useful financial information.

1.2 Expenses 
Expenses in continuing operations increased from 
$220.8m in the prior year to $228.6m in this year. This 
increase of $7.8m was partly driven by an increase in 
employee benefit costs of $8.4m resulting from higher 
activity. This is offset by reduced finance costs of 
$10.7m due to decrease in interest incurred following 
the repayments of debt facilities in September 2023 
and April 2024. The increase of $2.9m in administration 
expenses in 2024 included the impact of work to develop 
market opportunities into orders, particularly increased 
marketing costs associated with new product launches 
and increased travel and management costs associated 
with growing international markets. Depreciation and 
amortisation charges increased by $3.1m from the prior 
year primarily due to higher amortisation of previous 
years’ transfer from property, plant and equipment 
and the commencement of amortisation on product 
development cost. 
The Group’s gross margin percentage from continuing 
operations was 48 per cent in 2024 (2023: 45 per cent). 
This increase was driven by higher margin sales being 
achieved in 2024 in the Defence Systems business. The 
Group’s gross margin includes Revenue from customers 
and Raw material and consumables used. 
1.3 Underlying EBITDA 
Underlying EBITDA for continuing operations (prior to 
foreign exchange gains and other one-off adjustments) 
was a loss of $12.9m, compared to a loss of $13.0m in 
the prior year.

Review of Operations 
1. Results for the year ended 31 December 
2024 (continued) 
1.4 Impairment 
There were no impairments recognised in the year ended 
31 December 2024 or 2023. 
1.5 Foreign Exchange 
The results from continuing operations included foreign 
exchange gains in the year of $11.6m (2023: gain of 
$0.9m), which predominantly arose on the translation of 
US Dollar assets into Australian Dollars. 
1.6 Contract Assets 
The Group recognises a contract asset, being revenue 
recognised on projects that has not yet been invoiced 
to customers. Revenue is recognised under Australian 
Accounting Standards. Amounts are invoiced to 
customers in accordance with legal arrangements 
specified in customer contracts. 
At 31 December 2024, the Group had contract 
assets totalling $57.4m (31 December 2023: $68.0m, 
including $5.8m from EMS), being revenue earned but 
not invoiced, primarily on a project with a significant 
overseas customer in the Middle East. The contract asset 
decreased by $10.6m during the year, due to invoices 
issued to customers during the year exceeding revenue 
recognised on customer contracts.  
1.7 Contract Liabilities 
The Group recognises contract liabilities for amounts 
that have been received from customers as advance 
payments on projects.  During the year, the amount 
of contract liabilities increased from $20.6m at 31 
December 2023 to $24.1m at 31 December 2024.  
1.8 Cash Balances 
The cash balance (including held for sale) decreased 
from $71.0m at 31 December 2023 to $52.3m at 31 
December 2024. 
The Group continues to closely monitor its cash flow 
outlook, to ensure that adequate funding is in place and, 
if necessary, seek to amend the Group capital structure. 
The Group continues to focus on maximising cash 
inflows, including seeking contract amendments on 
existing contracts where appropriate, and securing and 
delivering on new sales contracts that are cash positive. 
Cash Flows from Operating Activities 
During the year, the Group had a net cash outflow from 
operating activities of $30.4m. 
Net cash from operating activities was impacted by a 
decrease in Receipts from Customers from $325.5m 
in the prior year to $261.1m in 2024. The decrease in 
receipts follows a contract amendment that resulted 
in relatively high levels of cash collection during 2023. 
Payments to Suppliers and employees of $268.4 m, 
increased from $215.9m in the prior year, due to the 
increased supplier payments as the result of increased 
activity and investment in supply chain resilience 
(including long-lead time items). Cashflows from other 
operating activities of $23.1m (outflow) was largely driven 
by interest paid during the year. 
Cash Flows from Investing Activities 
The Group had a net cash inflow of $3.7m from 
investing activities during the year. This included net 
cash inflows of $15.2m for security deposits for bonds 
released under contract with an Australian customer, 
and cash outflows of $11.5m from acquisitions of 
property, plant and equipment, and intangibles. 
Cash Flows from Financing Activities 
A net cash inflow of $9.2m from financial activities were 
achieved during the year, compared to a net outflow of 
$29.1m in the prior period. The 2024 inflow mainly arose 
from the impact of the equity raise, partially offset by 
debt repayments. 
During March and April 2024, the Group undertook an 
equity capital raising via a fully-underwritten Placement 
and a Share Purchase Plan. The Group successfully 
raised $33.2m (net of fees) via a fully-underwritten 
placement of approximately $20.6m new fully paid 
ordinary shares on 25 March 2024. The Group also 
raised an additional $1.7m (net of fees) via a Share 
Purchase Plan on 22 April 2024. 
Proceeds from the equity raise have been, and will 
continue to be, applied to support future sales growth in 
key global markets, through investment in long lead time 
critical supplies, specifically Remote Weapon System 
(“RWS”) cannons, other long lead time equipment 
components and security deposits for bank guarantees. 
The Group repaid $20.5m to retire its second Working 
Capital Facility which matured on 11 April 2024. After the 
end of the year, the Group repaid remaining borrowings. 
More details are set out at sections 5 and 10 below.

Review of Operations 
2. Changes in Directors and Management 
During the year, there were no changes to Board 
membership. 
The following changes to the management team 
occurred: 
• Mr Christian Tobergte was appointed Executive Vice 
President of Defence Systems International in April 
2024 to lead international growth in the Defence 
Systems business outside of Australia. This role will 
be based in Europe. 
• Mr Clive Cuthell was appointed Chief Operating 
Officer in addition to his existing role as Chief 
Financial Officer, to focus on execution of key group 
initiatives to support growth. 
• EOS brought its company secretary function fully in 
house during the year. Ms Leanne Ralph resigned as 
Joint Company Secretary on 31 May 2024, leaving 
EOS employee Ms Melanie Andrews, (appointed 26 
March 2024) as the sole Company Secretary. 
3. Strategic Update 
During 2022 EOS initiated a multi-year turnaround 
program. 2024 represented the second full year of this 
turnaround program. 
During 2024 EOS reviewed how best to continue working 
to commercialise our longstanding intellectual property. 
Based on compelling market dynamics, EOS has 
determined to focus on the growth opportunities in the 
counter-drone and space domains. 
As part of this strategic refocussing, it became apparent 
that EMS, EOS’ naval satellite communications business, 
had become non-core to the growth strategy. As such, 
a process was initiated to divest this business which 
culminated in executing an agreement to sell the 
business to Cohort plc in November 2024. 
The divestment of EMS (which was completed on 
31 January 2025) leaves EOS with a strengthened 
balance sheet. EOS intends that capital will be prudently 
deployed to support the growth opportunities identified 
in counter-drone and space domains noted above. 
In line with the work to grow the core business, EOS 
restructured its core Defence Systems organisation 
in order to better focus on its strategic objectives 
to maximise international sales and optimise its 
operations. This saw the establishment of a new role 
of “EVP Defence Systems International” in April 2024 to 
drive international business growth. In addition, the role 
of “EVP Defence Systems Australia” is now focussed 
on Australian activity including all of the operational 
activities there. These roles are filled by highly 
experienced defence industry leaders, Christian Tobergte 
and Ian Cook, respectively. 
4. Detailed Segment Update 
4.1 EOS Defence Systems 
Defence Systems had a positive year ended 31 
December 2024, with revenue increasing from $155.4m 
in the prior year to $165.7m in 2024. This $10.3m 
increase was predominantly due to the impact of the 
continued focus on the contract for a large customer 
in the Middle East and a new contract with a Western 
European Government. 
The main activity during the year was the manufacture 
and delivery of RWS for several different customers. 
Market Overview and Sales Activity 
Throughout 2024, ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the 
Middle East, as well as rising tensions and increased 
defence spending in other regions, supported customer 
demand and customer enquiry. 
EOS continues to pursue a number of material 
opportunities in different international markets, including 
Europe, the Middle East, North America and other 
international markets. Typically, EOS operates in an 
industry where it can take an extended period of time

Review of Operations 
4. Detailed Segment Update (continued) 
(including up to, and beyond, twelve months) for new 
market opportunities to be converted into signed sales 
contracts. 
Work continued during the year on sales opportunities, 
including significant projects in Australia and 
internationally. 
During the year, negotiations continued in Australia to 
finalise a contract with Hanwha Defence Australia (HDA) 
for the provision of RWS in relation to the Australian 
Land 400 Phase 3 project opportunity. Under this 
project, HDA has been selected to deliver 129 infantry 
fighting vehicles to the Australian Defence Force (ADF) 
in 2027 and 2028. 
In the year to 31 December 2024, Defence Systems 
entered into contracts with customers for the following 
new business: 
• a contract to supply Slinger Counter-Drone RWS to 
Diehl Defence in Germany valued at €9m (~$15m); 
• orders from Thales worth $5.4m for the supply of 
10 new and refurbishment/upgrade of 9 R400 RWS 
under its sustainment agreement with the customer; 
• an order for Counter-Drone Container Based Remote 
Weapon Systems (CBRWS) from a new Western 
European customer valued at €8m (~$13.6m); 
• a contract to supply R600 RWS unit spares to a 
customer in Southeast Asia, valued at approximately 
$28m; and 
• EOS Singapore received orders for remote weapon 
system spares worth SGD17m (~$20m). 
During the year, EOS continued to work with the 
Ukrainian end-users and customers to allow committed 
orders to be placed under the conditional contracts that 
were announced in April 2023, (valued at approximately 
$181.0m). EOS has been advised that the Ukrainian 
Ministry of Defence (MOD) has now listed its R400 with 
M230LF on the official Armaments List. This listing is 
a key step toward allowing the MOD to use Ukrainian 
funds to purchase EOS systems. The situation in Ukraine 
remains fluid and is subject to changing battlefield 
priorities, budget constraints and evolving donor 
attitudes. As announced previously, there is no certainty 
or guarantee that committed orders will be received by 
EOS under these conditional contracts. 
Defence Systems continues to be in active discussions 
and contract negotiations for the provision of RWS and 
related components with other potential customers. In 
2024 a number of demonstration units were provided to 
potential customers for evaluation purposes. Assuming 
the evaluation of these systems progresses positively, 
EOS would hope to move to sell larger, commercial 
quantities to these customers. There is no certainty that 
any particular outcome or transaction will result from 
these discussions and negotiations. 
Product Development 
Product development work continues on a range of 
opportunities. Where development costs are significant, 
the Group is focused on obtaining third party funding, 
to speed delivery to the market and manage costs and 
returns on capital. 
Defence Systems continued to develop its intellectual 
property and commercialise its product range during the 
year: 
• EOS continued discussions with potential customers 
for the R150 RWS (launched during 2023) and the 
R800 RWS (launched during 2023). In addition, 
EOS was in discussions with customers about the 
development and supply of RWS for the marine 
market (i.e. naval applications). 
• Following the 2023 launch of the flagship Slinger 
counter-drone system, work continued to meet strong 
demand for counter-drone solutions. In addition to 
ongoing demonstrations of the Slinger counter-drone 
system capabilities to customers, in July 2024, the 
Group also successfully demonstrated its Laser 
Dazzler at the CUAS Sandbox event in Canada. The 
Laser Dazzler can be integrated into EOS’ existing 
RWS, giving operators the flexibility to use either 
kinetic or non-kinetic electronic warfare measures 
against aerial threats. 
• EOS and the Australian Defence Force (ADF) 
Robotic and Autonomous Systems Implementation 
& Coordination Office (RICO) demonstrated the 
advanced long-range firing capabilities and precision 
of EOS’ R400 RWS, remotely controlling an RWS from 
over 500km away to destroy ground targets. 
• Capabilities of an R600 RWS were demonstrated on 
a US Army Small Multipurpose Equipment Transport 
(S-MET) robotic infantry support vehicle. Using this 
platform, EOS successfully shot down pairs of Class 
1 drones at ranges of more than 300m and engaged 
multiple ground targets with 30mm cannon from this 
robotic platform. 
• EOS received a request from a large potential customer 
in the United States to develop an autonomous 
capability for the Slinger counter-drone system. 
Typically, new product launches in the defence industry 
can take one to three years to achieve significant sales 
and develop commercial maturity.

Review of Operations 
High Energy Laser Weapon 
EOS believes that High Energy Laser Weapons represent 
a significant strategic growth opportunity. 
During the year, the Group continued discussions with 
international customers for the potential sale of its 
new 50kW and/or 100kW High Energy Laser Weapon 
(HELW). EOS views that the signing of one or more of 
these commercial agreements would mark an important 
milestone as it works towards commercialisation of this 
product line. It is expected to take some time for HELW 
products to achieve significant commercial scale. There 
is no certainty that any commercial agreements will occur 
or that HELW products will achieve commercial scale. 
In 2024 EOS established a Laser Innovation Centre in 
Singapore to carry out new product development work 
on High Energy Laser Weapon systems. In order to 
facilitate this, the Group established a new 100% owned 
company, ‘EOS Innovation Singapore Pte Ltd’. 
Supply Chain, Operations and Facilities 
In 2024 EOS reinvigorated its supply chain team and 
during the course of the year we have focussed on a 
number of critical initiatives including: 
• Material Requirements Planning (MRP): upgraded 
the MRP systems to improve demand forecasting 
accuracy, align production with lead times, and 
optimise planning and delivery. 
• Supply Chain Efficiency: enhanced on-time delivery 
performance, streamlined component sourcing, and 
refined production timelines for greater efficiency and 
reliability. 
Further, in order to improve overall supply chain resilience, 
safety stock levels for some critical components have 
been reviewed and, in some areas, increased. 
4.2 EOS Space Systems 
For the year to 31 December 2024, continuing 
operations revenue in the EOS Space Systems segment 
(excluding EMS) increased to $10.8m from the prior year 
(2023: $6.7m). 
The Space Systems business delivers space domain 
services as well as designs, manufactures and deploys 
telescope and observatory equipment. 
During 2024, Space Systems continued to grow 
and commercialise its technology. Space Systems 
announced in April and July respectively that it had 
secured a $5m and a subsequent $9m contract with 
the ADF Joint Capabilities Division in Australia to further 
develop space capabilities. These projects represent a 
significant strategic opportunity for EOS and this work 
was developed consistent with EOS stated strategy 
of securing third party funding for new capability 
development work. 
During the year, Space Systems continued to develop 
the market for space control solutions. EOS believes 
that the future market for space control solutions is 
potentially very large. During the year, EOS identified 
several emerging space control opportunities in 
overseas markets and discussions were held with 
various potential partners to start to develop these 
opportunities. Discussions to date have focussed on the 
Group’s unique capabilities and potential opportunities 
for the Group to secure product development funding. 
These discussions are expected to continue in 2025 and 
will be supported by demonstrations where appropriate. 
This market development work is being conducted to 
support significant long term strategic growth. Typically, 
in this area it can take several years for opportunities to 
be developed and converted to signed sales agreements 
and there is no guarantee that this will be successful. 
KiwiStar Optics continues to work on programs for a 
range of international customers and to seek further 
opportunities in international markets.

Review of Operations 
5. Discontinued Operations and Repayment 
of Debt 
In November 2024, the Group announced its intention to 
divest 100% of EMS to Cohort plc for an enterprise value 
of $144.0m. 
EMS designs, builds, deploys and maintains on-the-
move satellite communication equipment systems for 
defence forces. EMSs’ main products include satellite 
communication terminals and antennae for naval 
vessels and other applications. 
During 2024, EMS continued to focus on building its order 
book and delivering its satellite communication systems 
to customers in Australia and other regions. In 2024, EMS 
worked on the deliverables required under the SEA 1442 
Phase 5 contract for the Royal Australian Navy. 
Subsequent to year end: 
• On 31 January 2025, the transaction to sell 100% 
of the equity in EMS completed. Accounting for 
customary adjustments for working capital and net 
debt, a consideration of $158.6m was received. 
• On 31 January 2025, EOS repaid all remaining debt 
owing to WHSP. This amounted to $61.1m which 
included a “make whole” as required under the facility 
agreement. Following this repayment, EOS no longer 
has any outstanding borrowings. 
6. Subsequent Events 
Apart from items outlined above in this Review of 
Operations, there have been no transactions or events 
of a material and unusual nature between the end of the 
reporting period and the date of the report likely, in the 
opinion of the Directors of the Company, to significantly 
affect the operations of the Group, the results of those 
operations, or state of affairs of the Group in future years. 
7. Material Business Risks 
The following is a summary of the material business 
risks of the Group. These are not listed in any order of 
importance and do not constitute an exhaustive list. Any 
of these risks may adversely impact on the financial and 
operating performance and prospects of the Group and 
on the ability of the Group to continue operating as a 
going concern. 
7.1 Customer Concentration and Future Sales 
Revenue risks 
Currently, the Group’s activities are concentrated with a 
relatively small number of customers and the Group has 
a secured contract backlog of approximately $135.6m 
(excluding EM Solutions and excluding conditional 
contracts). The Group’s ability to continue operating 
depends on its ability to secure profitable future sales 
contracts from existing and new customers. 
The Group is working to mitigate risk to the best of its 
ability by implementing plans to diversify the business 
with a wide range of new customers in different 
markets. The Group has a detailed pipeline of potential 
future opportunities which are being developed. There 
is a risk that opportunities are cancelled, delayed or 
take longer than expected to be secured in the form of 
binding customer contracts. EOS works to mitigate this 
risk by pursuing a wide range of different opportunities. 
The group has set management performance targets 
for new business won in the year (which may span 
over multiple years) and revenue delivered in the year. 
Management incentive schemes have been established 
and are updated regularly. 
Future sales revenue and cash receipts are likely to 
continue to be dependent on the performance of 
customers and others. For example, EOS sometimes 
relies on the availability of customer vehicles, or critical 
components (such as cannons) from suppliers. The 
Group assesses this risk and takes steps to mitigate this 
risk, for example by securing appropriate contract terms 
where possible. 
There is no guarantee that the Group will be successful 
in securing new sales orders, diversifying the business 
or mitigating potential future non-performance of 
customers and others. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
27 
Review of Operations 
7.2 Cash Receipts, Liquidity and Funding 
The Group incurred a Loss Before Tax from Continuing 
Operations of $41.0m for the year ended 31 December 
2024 and had a net cash outflow from Operating 
Activities of $30.4m. 
On 31 January 2025, EOS divested the EM Solutions 
business, receiving proceeds of $158.6m. Also on 
31 January 2025, EOS repaid all borrowings from its 
longstanding lender, WHSP. Following these transactions, 
EOS had approximately $128.0m unrestricted and 
available cash on hand at 31 January 2025. 
The Group is reliant on cash collections from customers. 
The receipt of adequate cash from customers depends 
on customers making timely payments for the goods 
supplied in accordance with contractual terms, and on 
the Group securing new additional cash positive sales 
orders from customers. 
The Group is a party to large contracts which can create 
relatively large receipts and payments in short periods of 
time. The Group is exposed to risk if receipts are delayed 
and this can create additional liquidity requirements at 
short notice. 
The Group manages these risks by monitoring near-term 
cash forecasts and proactively pursuing cash collections 
and other cash management strategies. In addition, the 
group maintains cash reserves to provide capacity to 
withstand short term movements in cash receipts and 
payments. 
If adequate cash is not received, the Group may not have 
sufficient liquidity and funds to continue operations. In 
addition, it may be required to negotiate with lenders and/ 
or other finance providers and to complete further debt or 
equity raisings. There is no assurance that the Group will 
be successful in any potential future recapitalisation and/ 
or refinancing should this be required. 
The Group is regularly asked to issue bank guarantees 
under new customer contracts. The issuance of such 
guarantees is subject to the availability of facilities from 
financiers. There is no guarantee that such facilities will 
be obtained and this can impact the Group’s ability to 
secure customer contracts on attractive terms. 
The Group works to mitigate the risk to the best of its 
ability by holding regular and constructive discussions with 
customers and with finance providers, by main-taining 
proactive cash management processes and by exploring 
profitable new business opportunities that, if converted, 
will be cash flow positive. The Group has set management 
performance targets for cash collected in the year. 
7.3 Foreign Exchange Risks 
The Group typically incurs costs in Australian dollars 
and United States dollars, and sells products priced 
in Australian dollars, United States dollars and other 
currencies. This can create a foreign exchange exposure, 
particularly as costs are often incurred prior to sales 
proceeds being received, and the Group holds assets 
(including contract assets) denominated in foreign 
currency. The Group works to monitor foreign exchange 
exposures and mitigates these by factoring reasonably 
possible foreign exchange movements into pricing. 
In addition, receipts and payments with foreign 
exchange risks are often incurred over extended periods 
of time, protecting the Group from the impact of short-
term movements in foreign exchange rates. Except for 
the natural hedge afforded by having operating assets 
in different countries, the Group does not hedge foreign 
exchange transactions. The Group may incur exchange 
gains and losses as a result of this approach. 
7.4 Human Resources Risks 
The Group’s ability to continue operating depends on its 
ability to retain and attract (where required) high quality 
managers and staff with skills aligned to the future needs 
of the Group, particularly as our order book expands. 
The market for hiring new staff remains challenging 
in several key areas. The Group employs a range of 
initiatives to attract and retain appropriate resources, 
including implementing remuneration strategies and 
other employee benefits. 
The introduction of new regulatory requirements (see 
section xi below) can also limit the size of talent pools 
that the Group can hire from, particularly when we are 
required to hire Australian or other approved citizens. 
EOS continues to develop opportunities widen our hiring 
pools to address this. 
The Group evaluates concentration risks (including our 
reliance on talent pools in small geographic markets 
such as Canberra, Australia), and ways to reduce this. 
This includes regularly considering the expansion of 
our production capability in the United States and other 
places in order to have wider pools of talent to draw upon. 
There is no guarantee that the Group will be able to 
retain or attract key managers and staff. This may 
have an adverse impact on the Group’s financial and 
operating performance. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024

Review of Operations 
7. Material Business Risks (continued) 
7.5 Cyber / Information Technology Risks 
The Group is dependent on the performance, reliability 
and availability of technology platforms, data centres 
and technology systems, including services provided 
by third parties. The Group operates in the defence 
industry and has a higher inherent Cyber / Information 
Technology risk profile than other organisations. 
There is a risk that technology systems may be 
adversely affected by disruption, including by factors 
outside the Group’s control. This could lead to a 
prolonged disruption to the Group’s activities, with 
adverse effects on the Group’s products and services, 
operations, interactions with suppliers, employees and 
others, delivery to customers, cash receipts and net cash 
flows, and on the Group’s reputation. 
The Group employs expert personnel and third-party 
service providers to help mitigate these risks. These 
mitigations include monitoring threats and other 
processes and insurance. The technical nature of this risk 
is subject to ongoing rapid evolution. If this risk arose, 
there is no guarantee that the mitigation activities would 
be effective and in this situation, it could have an adverse 
effect on the ability of the Group to continue operating. 
During 2023 a Board subcommittee, the Data Security 
and Data Governance Committee, was established to 
oversee this risk. The work of this committee continued 
during 2024. 
7.6 Geo-Political Change Risks 
The Group is exposed to changes in geopolitical risks, 
including changes in the operating environment that 
arise from wars, terrorist acts and tensions between 
states that impact global security. In addition, political 
and governmental changes can ultimately lead to 
changes in market demand and other factors that 
impact the Group. 
The Group operates in international markets in the 
defence industry and has a higher inherent geo-political 
risk profile than other organisations. The Group is also 
exposed to the risk of political and economic instability 
in international markets, inconsistent product regulation 
by national governments or their agencies, imposition 
of product tariffs and burdens, difficulty in enforcing 
intellectual property rights, national taxes, and language 
and other cultural barriers. 
During 2024 and early 2025, the risk of the imposition of 
product tariffs increased as some countries (including 
the United States) indicated a willingness to consider 
imposing tariffs. The Group expects this risk to continue 
evolving. This could result in changes that adversely 
affect the cost of materials purchased by the Group or the 
prices ultimately charged by the Group to customers. EOS 
monitors developments and works to ensure customer 
opportunities and contracts are not exposed to this risk. 
There is no guarantee that this work will be successful. 
Changes in geopolitical situations or legal requirements 
could have an adverse impact on market development, 
sales opportunities, revenues, operations, costs, profits, 
and cash receipts and net cash flows, including the 
ability of customers to pay for products and services 
supplied. The Group addresses this by monitoring global 
developments, including meeting with senior defence 
and political leaders in different countries. The Group 
also considers potential future situations, particularly 
when developing and adapting market strategies and 
plans, as well as working to influence critical decisions 
through appropriate channels. 
7.7 Operational Continuity and Supply Chain Risks 
In future, the Group’s continuing operations may be 
affected by a range of factors, including the interruption 
of availability of materials and components caused by 
supply chain issues, access to operational premises and 
access to high-level engineering skills and personnel and 
to customer and supplier facilities and equipment. The 
Group’s products are also subject to obsolescence risks, 
including the ongoing availability of critical components 
that may no longer be being manufactured by suppliers. 
The Group continues to monitor these risks and develop 
plans to mitigate them, including working to source and 
hold inventories of critical parts. In addition, the Group 
continues to work with customers and others to address 
the risk of adverse financial impacts of delays in access 
to firing ranges, vehicles, weapons and other critical 
items. There is no guarantee that the Group’s plans will 
cover all scenarios or be successful in fully mitigating 
these risks, should they arise in future. 
7.8 Stakeholder Dissatisfaction Risks 
The Group interacts with a wide range of stakeholders. 
These include customers (including various government, 
defence force and other buyers) suppliers, industrial 
partners, regulators, lenders and funding providers, 
employees, equity investors and others. The ongoing 
operation of the Group depends on the level of trust and 
confidence of stakeholders in the Group. 
Following the divestment of EM Solutions, on 31 
January 2025 the Group repaid all outstanding 
borrowings. Thereafter, the Group had cash reserves 
of approximately $128.0m. The Group believes this 
represents an improvement in overall financial health 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
29 
Review of Operations 
and that this provides the opportunity to improve 
stakeholder confidence in the Group and reduce the risk 
of stakeholder dissatisfaction. 
Stakeholder requirements typically encompass a wide 
range of demands and there is no guarantee that the 
Group will be able to satisfy stakeholder requirements. 
Ultimately this could lead to stakeholders withholding 
co-operation and could disrupt the Group’s ability to 
continue operating. 
7.9 Product Development Risks 
Ongoing sales of existing products to customers require 
the maintenance and development of these existing 
products and services to ensure that they remain 
effective and saleable. In order to continue operating, 
existing products require the maintenance of legacy 
software, and the implementation of new software. The 
Group employs software engineers to do this. 
The Group sells high technology products and services 
and there is the risk that fundamental technology 
changes occur over time rendering the group’s existing 
products obsolete. For example, global security 
endeavours could become more focussed on missiles 
than land-based RWS technologies, presenting a risk and 
an opportunity. The Group addresses this by monitoring 
market trends and developing new technology 
products. Product development work is subject to risk, 
including that if the Group does not have access to the 
necessary investment funding and the necessary skills 
and capabilities, this could disrupt or delay product 
development programs and ultimately the ongoing 
operation of the Group. 
The technical and commercial development of new 
products depends on the assessment of evolving 
market needs and a range of complex factors. Product 
development can consume significant amounts of 
investment and may not result in the development of 
commercially viable products for extended periods of 
time or ever. The Group’s access to appropriate sources 
of development funding and technical, commercial 
and strategic capability is a key determinant of future 
product viability and the Group may not be able to 
access these. 
The Group regularly reviews it product portfolio and 
evolving market trends and continues to develop product 
plans to mitigate these risks. There is no guarantee 
that the Group will be able to maintain or develop 
commercially viable products. 
7.10 ESG: Environmental, Social and Governance 
Risks 
The Group is exposed to a wide range of Environmental, 
Social and Governance risks. The Group’s products 
(including Remote Weapons Systems) and other 
services may be used in ways that impact human rights. 
The Group is required to comply with export controls in 
Australia, the United States and other countries and has 
implemented controls designed to ensure compliance. 
The Group is exposed to other social risks, including 
evolving community expectations and obligations 
relating to supply chain ethics, modern slavery, diversity 
rights and behaviour of Directors and employees. The 
Group works to monitor social risks and take steps to 
monitoring evolving social expectations and ensure 
compliance with obligations in good time. 
The Group is subject to the impacts of changes in 
environmental requirements and compliance obligations 
(including reporting) and to the impacts of changes in 
the environment on supply chain availability. The Group’s 
activities, products and services may have an adverse 
impact on the environment. The Group’s exposure to 
environmental and climate change risks is set out in 
more detail below. 
The Group is exposed to governance risks, including 
those relating to Board governance and diversity and 
the ability to retain and attract Board Directors with the 
requisite skills and experience. In addition, there is the 
risk that Board review and decision-making processes 
may not be effective in ensuring compliance with 
relevant obligations and the ongoing viability of the 
Group at all times. The Board monitors its composition, 
skills and processes to assess this risk and take steps to 
mitigate risks where possible. 
ESG risks continue to evolve rapidly and there is no 
guarantee that the Group will be able to continue to 
anticipate or fully mitigate these risks. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
30 
Review of Operations 
7. Material Business Risks (continued) 
7.11 Regulatory and Legal risks 
The Group is subject to a wide range of regulatory and 
legal obligations in different countries. These include 
regulations relating to Export Licenses for its products, 
security obligations (including relating to sites, people, 
data and classified activities) and compliance with the 
requirements of the Australian Securities Exchange and 
the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) in Australia (and similar 
legislation in other countries). 
The Group’s regulatory and legal environment is 
subject to change and the Group can face new 
regulatory requirements. In Australia, new legislation 
on Safeguarding Australia’s Military Secrets imposed 
new restrictions and requirements on the Group during 
2024. The new Defence Trade Controls Amendment Act 
2024 also created new restrictions and requirements. 
The Group has taken steps to manage compliance with 
these new requirements. There are also evolving risks, 
such as the risk of tariffs outlined at section 7.6 above. 
Changes in regulatory and legal requirements can impact 
the Group’s ability to sell, manufacture or export key 
products or components. The Group monitors changes 
in the regulatory and legal environment and seeks to 
take mitigating actions where appropriate. There is 
no certainty that any mitigating actions taken may be 
effective in a way that allows the Group to continue 
operating without short-term or long-term impacts. 
The Group’s relationships with counterparties (including 
customers, suppliers, and others) are governed by 
contracts and relevant legislation in Australia, the United 
States of America and other countries. In addition, the 
Group’s ongoing operations depend on continuing to 
meet regulatory and licencing requirements in different 
parts of the business and different jurisdictions. 
In particular, the Group requires specific government 
permits (including Export Licences) under the applicable 
export laws of the country of manufacture for each 
export of defence equipment. Such permits are issued 
and occasionally withdrawn for political and strategic 
reasons by the issuing government. Delivery contracts 
must be declined or terminated without fault if an export 
licence is not granted and the Group works to manage 
this risk. 
There is the risk that the Group could be subject to 
disputes, legal claims, litigation, investigations, class 
actions and sanctions from customers, suppliers, 
investors, lenders and other funding providers, 
regulators, governments and others. These may relate 
to past, current or future events or activities of the 
Group, including actions or omissions by Directors and 
employees. For example, as previously disclosed, EOS 
is subject to an ongoing investigation by ASIC in in 
Australia in connection with compliance with disclosure 
obligations and related duties regarding the Company’s 
2022 revenue guidance. EOS has fully co-operated with 
this investigation and has not received any indication 
from ASIC that any action will be taken in relation to the 
matters being investigated. As with any investigation 
of this nature it is not possible to predict whether any 
action may be taken by ASIC or third parties. There is no 
guarantee that any past, current or future such matters 
arising will be resolved in a way that allows the Group 
to continue operating without short-term or long-term 
impacts. 
7.12 Additional Information on Climate Change 
and Climate-related Risks 
The Group is exposed to climate change and climate-
related risks. Directors are responsible for providing over­
sight of the Group’s risks and opportunities in this area. 
The main climate risks that the Group face in the short 
term include compliance with evolving legislation, 
including reporting obligations in different jurisdictions. 
Reporting obligations are evolving and jurisdiction-
specific and the Group works to ensure compliance with 
these requirements. 
During 2024, the Group conducted an initial assessment 
of climate reporting obligations. As part of this, it was 
determined that the Group expects to be required 
to comply with climate-related financial disclosure 
obligations for the 2027 reporting year. 
Over the medium and long term, the Group has identified 
the risk that additional obligations will arise relating to 
potential mitigation of adverse environmental activity 
within the Group’s supply chains. The Group has an 
extensive and fragmented supply chain base which 
is involved in the manufacture of electronic and other 
equipment. 
The Group’s strategy for managing climate-related 
risks is under review which will include modelling of 
different climate-related scenarios, such as a ‘2 degrees 
centigrade or lower’ scenario. 
The Group has identified ESG (including climate risks) as 
a risk to the Group through its risk management process 
which is overseen by the Directors. Assessing this risk 
and developing mitigations and other actions (current 
and planned) is the responsibility of management. The 
Directors are responsible for monitoring compliance 
with the various evolving requirements (including 
reporting obligations), progress being made and the 
development of future plans. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
31 
Review of Operations 
The Group plans to renew its climate risk goals, strategy 
and detailed plans, including setting metrics and targets 
and preparing for climate-related reporting requirements 
during 2025 and 2026. 
8. Long-Term Incentive Plan 
During the year, 2,100,000 share options and 1,260,000 
share rights were issued to the Managing Director and 
CEO, Dr Andreas Schwer, following approval at the AGM 
in May 2024. 
In addition, during the year a further issue of 866,489 
share options and 195,445 share rights were issued 
to executives and senior management as part of the 
Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan. 
There is no change in share capital as a result of these 
allocations and it is anticipated that upon vesting, these 
allocations will be funded, to the fullest extent possible, 
by shares already issued and held in trust as lapsed 
shares under the existing Loan-Funded Share Plan. 
No other share rights or share options were issued to 
directors during or after the period. 
9. Offset Credit Obligation 
The Group is obligated as part of its contract to supply a 
customer in the Middle East, to contribute to economic 
development in the country in order to offset against 
purchases of its products and services (“Offset Program”). 
This commitment is secured by an offset bond of 
US$16.9m (A$27.3m) which is guaranteed by Export 
Finance Australia. In respect of the bond, a cash security 
amount of US$13.7m (A$22.1m) has been placed on 
deposit. 
As part of the offset program, EOS is required to develop, 
agree and submit an approved business plan, which will 
generate offset credits, to the offset credit authority. 
A proposed business plan was submitted to the offset 
authority in September 2023. During the year the Group 
continued to have advanced discussions regarding the 
business plan with the offset credit authority and, as at 
balance date, the business plan remained under review 
by the offset credit authority. 
In addition during the year, consistent with the 
proposed business plan, EOS entered into a non-
binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with 
Shielders Advanced Industries (“Shielders”), a specialist 
manufacturer in the Middle East. The MOU envisages 
the formation of a Joint Venture (“JV”) between 
Shielders and EOS that focusses on local manufacturing 
and assembly of RWS, assisting EOS in meeting its 
offset obligations. 
Subsequent to balance date, on 20 February 2025, the 
Group received approval from the offset credit authority 
for the business plan. The business plan envisages that 
EOS will enter into a 49% EOS owned JV with Shielders 
Advanced Industries to set up local manufacturing 
and assembly of EOS’ R150 Remote Weapon System 
product in the Middle East. Under the approved business 
plan, EOS has from 1 July 2026 until 1 July 2033 to 
set up the JV and earn the relevant offset credits. This 
includes in kind contributions including the licensing of 
EOS owned IP, and providing technical data packages 
and manufacturing knowhow to the JV. 
Under the approval from the offset credit authority 
the final form of the JV agreement, along with other 
agreements necessary for the JV to manufacture and 
assemble EOS product in the Middle East, require the 
approval of the offset credit authority and approval of 
the JV agreement must be obtained from the offset 
credit authority within a maximum of 6 months from 20 
February 2025. Under the approved business plan in order 
to earn offset credits EOS must contribute not less than 
AED 18.365m (approximately A$7.8m) in cash to the JV. 
As a result of the above, EOS considers that both at 
balance date and as at the date of this report it was in 
compliance with its obligations. In the event that EOS 
does not comply with its obligations in future, the offset 
credit authority is entitled to demand payment under the 
guarantee outlined above. 
10. Capital Management 
The Group’s continued its focus on capital management, 
and the monetising of contracts on hand during 2024. 
On 10 April 2024, EOS announced the $20.5m full 
repayment of the Additional Working Capital facility. This 
follows the repayment of $26.9m in September 2023 of 
the initial Working Capital facility. 
As at 31 December 2024, the Group had one secured 
borrowing facility with WHSP (“WHSP facility”) for a 
Term Loan principal facility of $35.0m. The total debt 
repayment obligation of $52.1m was due to mature on 
11 October 2025 and included principal, establishment 
fees and interest accrued, not paid in cash, to that date. 
The facility carried interest of 22 per cent per annum 
and line fees of 4 per cent. This loan was secured by a 
general security deed which ranked pari passu with the 
Export Finance Australia facility. The borrowing facility 
agreement included a 100 per cent ‘make whole’ clause 
which applied in the case of any early repayment. 
As noted in section 6 above, on 31 January 2025, 
following the divestment of EMS, EOS was required to 
repay the WHSP facility noted above. The total

32 
Review of Operations 
10. Capital Management (continued) 
repayment (including principal, interest and make whole 
amounts) was $61.1m. 
Following this debt repayment and the divestment of 
EMS, EOS had no borrowings on 31 January 2025, 
and held approximately $128.0m in available cash 
balances. Furthermore, EOS had approximately $48.0m 
of restricted cash (security deposits) held as security for 
bank guarantees. 
The Group is a party to large contracts which can create 
relatively large receipts and payments in short periods of 
time. The Group is exposed to risk if receipts are delayed 
and this can create additional liquidity requirements at 
short notice. The Group manages this risk by monitoring 
near-term cash forecasts and proactively pursuing cash 
collections and other cash management strategies. 
11. Business Outlook 
During 2024, work continued on EOS’ transformation 
strategy to focus on commercialising its substantial 
intellectual property and growing its core product 
offerings in the areas of Remote Weapon Systems, 
High Energy Laser Weapons and Space Control. This 
work included divesting EM Solutions, and initiatives to 
diversify the Group’s range of products and the markets 
we serve, and ultimately our customer and revenue 
base. This is intended to improve profitability and returns 
over time. 
11.1 Outlook for Markets, Customers and 
Order Book 
The market outlook for the Group’s products remains 
positive. This is due to the conflict in Ukraine, conflicts 
in the Middle East and continued tensions in other 
locations. Customer interest in NATO countries and 
other markets remains strong and overall customer 
enquiry levels and discussions continued to advance 
during the year. We continue to see particularly strong 
interest in counter-drone solutions. 
Typically, EOS operates in an industry where it can 
take an extended period of time (up to a year or more) 
for new opportunities to be converted into signed 
sales contracts. During 2024 and in early 2025, some 
opportunities have taken longer to develop than 
originally anticipated. EOS continues to pursue a number 
of material opportunities in different markets, including 
Europe, North America the Middle East and other 
international markets. 
At 31 December 2024, the unconditional backlog order 
book was $135.6m (excluding EMS). EOS aims to both 
grow the backlog order book and convert the existing 
conditional orders to binding orders during 2025. 
Achieving this depends on a range of factors, some of 
which are outside of EOS control. 
11.2 Outlook for Revenue 
Typically, the recognition of revenue is governed by the 
achievement of project milestones specified in customer 
contracts. Changes in project timing, and the timing 
of the Group’s revenue, can arise due to unplanned 
changes in circumstances. 
The level of future revenue in 2025 and beyond will 
depends on the delivery against contracts on hand and 
on the level of new contracts secured and delivered 
during the year. Factors including the achievement 
of product manufacturing and delivery milestones, 
compliance with detailed contractual requirements, 
ongoing customer relationships and the outcome of 
commercial discussions and negotiations as well as the 
quantum of new contracts secured all impact revenue 
recognised. Due to the nature of the industry in which 
EOS operates historically, the timing and quantum of 
revenue has been difficult to predict with certainty. 
During 2024, EOS revenue from continuing operations 
was $176.6m. Achieving a similar revenue in 2025 will 
depend on the company converting some of its pipeline 
or other new opportunities to confirmed orders and 
delivering on the requisite manufacturing, delivery and 
other milestones. In addition, based upon the delivery 
profile of existing contracts, and the work to secure new 
contracts, EOS expects that 2025 revenue will be heavily 
biased to the second half of the year. 
The Group will continue to provide updates during the 
year in line with its continuous disclosure obligations.

Directors’ Report 
9. Share Options / Rights (continued) 
No share options were exercised during or since the financial year. There were no shares or interests issued during or 
since the financial year as a result of exercise of an option. 
During the year ended 31 December 2024, 60,000 legacy ESOP share options lapsed due to the expiry of the exercise 
period and 417,500 share options (consisting of 230,000 ESOP options and 187,500 OEIP options) were forfeited due to 
cessation of employment. 
5,732,076 share options have been issued under the OEIP and remain outstanding as at the date of this report. 
At 31 December 2024, vesting conditions relating to 3,332,534 share options were satisfied and the options vested. 
To the extent that share options vest and are exercised in the future, the Company expects they will be settled from 
existing ordinary share capital from unallocated shares within the employee share trust. 
9.2 Share Rights (OEIP) 
Share rights granted to Directors and executives 
1,260,000 share rights were issued to the Managing Director and CEO, Dr Andreas Schwer, following approval at the AGM 
in May 2024. 
No other share rights or share options were issued to directors during or after the period. 
Share rights on issue 
2,759,062 share rights have been issued and remain outstanding as at the date of this report. No shares were issued 
during or since the financial year as a result of exercise of a share right. During the year ended 31 December 2024, 
37,500 share rights were forfeited due to cessation of employment. 
At 31 December 2024, the vesting conditions relating to 868,839 share rights were satisfied and these share rights vested. 
To the extent that share rights vest and are exercised in the future, the Company expects they will be settled from 
existing ordinary share capital from unallocated shares within the employee share trust. 
9.3 Legacy Incentive Plans – Loan Funded Share Plan and Employee Share Option Plan 
Legacy Loan Funded Share Plan 
No new loan funded shares were issued during or since the financial year, and the Company has provided no new interest 
free loans to the Directors or employees to acquire the shares under the legacy LFSP during or since the financial year. 
As a result of a number of performance conditions and shares price hurdles not being met, as well as the resignation 
of certain employees, 320,000 legacy LFSP shares lapsed during the year. This resulted in the total amount of the loans 
outstanding under the legacy LFSP at year-end being $2,275,925 (2023: $3,902,150). 
Loan funds under the legacy LFSP are limited recourse in nature, meaning that the Company’s recourse is limited to 
the shares. If at the date that the loan becomes repayable the Directors or employees shares are worth less than the 
outstanding balance of the loan, the Company cannot recover the difference from the Director or employee. Interest will 
not be payable on the outstanding balance of the loan. 
All shares issued under the legacy LFSP are held in an employee share trust, on behalf of all participants. The name of the 
Trust is EOS Loan Plan Pty Ltd as trustee for the Share Plan Trust. All shares under the legacy LFSP are also subject to a 
holding lock until all conditions are satisfied and the loan is repaid. 
The shares issued to Directors and employees are subject to both ‘vesting conditions’ and ‘forfeiture conditions’. 
Directors and employees are required to satisfy the vesting conditions in order for their shares to vest. While Directors 
and employees hold their shares, they will be subject to forfeiture conditions and the shares will be forfeited if either the 
vesting conditions are failed to be satisfied or the Director or employee cease to be employed or continue to provide 
services to a Group company in certain circumstances.

Legacy Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) 
As a result of a number of performance conditions and share price hurdles not being met, as well as the resignation of 
certain employees, 290,000 legacy share options lapsed during the year under this plan. The options issued are subject 
to both ‘vesting conditions’ and ‘forfeiture conditions’. 
Once the vesting conditions have been satisfied, removed or lifted, the options vest and employees may deal with them

trading policy).

10. Subsequent Events 
On 31 January 2025, EOS announced that the EMS divestment had been completed, with net proceeds (after 
customary adjustments) of $158.6m received on that date. 
Contemporaneous with the completion of the transaction, EOS has repaid Washington H. Soul Pattinson (“WHSP”) 
$61.1m. This represents the final repayment of WHSP of all outstanding amounts, including ‘make whole’ payments 
required under the borrowing agreements. Following this debt repayment and the divestment of EMS, the Group had no 
borrowings and held approximately $128.0m of available cash balances at 31 January 2025. 
Subsequent to year-end, on 20 February 2025, the Group received approval from the offset credit authority for the 
business plan. Refer to Note 30 to the financial statements for further details. 
Apart from those mentioned above, there have been no transactions or events of a material and unusual nature 
between the end of the reporting period and the date of the report likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the Company, 
to significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results of those operations, or state of affairs of the Group in 
future years. 
11. Deed of Cross Guarantee 
On 6 April 2018, the parent entity, Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited, entered into a deed of cross guarantee 
with two of its Australian wholly-owned subsidiaries, Electro Optic Systems Pty Limited and EOS Defence Systems 
Pty Limited. On 28 November 2019, EM Solutions Pty Ltd entered into an Assumption Deed and became a party to the 
Deed of Cross Guarantee. 
On 21 November 2024, the Group announced the decision to sell EMS, a wholly-owned subsidiary. EMS is disclosed as 
a discontinued operation at 31 December 2024. 
Subsequent to year end, the Group completed the sale of EMS, and as a result, EMS was removed from the Deed of 
Cross Guarantee. 
12. Likely Developments 
The Group will continue to operate in the Space Systems and Defence Systems businesses. Please see the Review of 
Operations for further details. 
13. Environmental Regulations 
During the year, the Group engaged an external sustainability and climate expert to support the Group as part of its 
proactive approach to prepare for Australian Sustainability Reporting Standards (ASRS) compliance. In this initial 
phase, the Group conducted introductory workshops with key management across the group, performed an ASRS gap 
assessment, and developed an initial roadmap to address key gaps identified. 
The Group plans to conduct a climate risk and opportunities assessment during 2025 and 2026 as part of the phased 
approach. Involving key management and operational employees, this assessment will help evaluate the Group’s 
climate risk profile, including climate change, and identify areas for development to meet emerging climate-related 
disclosure requirements. 
In the opinion of the Directors the Group is in compliance with all applicable environmental legislation and regulations.

14. Ethical Labour 
The Group has established measures regarding fair labour practices and guidelines that create a respectful and safe 
work environment for our employees globally. The Group is committed to treating all of its employees with respect 
and strictly prohibits the use of slavery, forced labour and human trafficking. To prevent the occurrence of forced, 
compulsory or child labour, the Group has implemented local labour policies and practices to comply with the Modern 
Slavery Act. Any person who applies for employment with the Group does so on a voluntary basis and all employees are 
legally entitled to leave upon reasonable notice without penalty. In accordance with the Group’s recruiting guidelines, 
offers of employment must be conditional upon successful completion of required background checks. Background 
checks are required to protect the safety of employees and to ensure that employees meet the Group’s standards. 
15. Diversity 
The Group values diversity and recognises the benefits it can bring to the organisation’s ability to achieve its goals. 
Accordingly, the Group’s diversity policy (“Diversity Policy”) outlines its diversity objectives in relation to gender, age, 
cultural background, ethnicity, employment of veterans and other factors to leverage the widest pool of available talent. 
A copy of the Group’s Diversity Policy is available on the Company’s website. 
Section 6 of the Diversity Policy states that the Group will establish appropriate and meaningful objectives for achieving 
gender and other forms of diversity. 
The Group’s current objectives are to: 
• improve the participation of women in the workforce; and 
• improve retention of staff. 
As at 31 December 2024, the Group’s gender diversity mix was as follows:

18. Indemnification and Insurance of Officers and Auditors 
During the financial year, the Company paid a premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors and Officers of the 
Company and any related body corporate against a liability incurred as such a Director or Officer to the extent permitted 
by the Corporations Act 2001. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the coverage provided 
and the amount of the premium. The Company has agreed to indemnify the current Directors, Company Secretary and 
Executive Officers against all liabilities to other persons that may arise from their position as Directors or Officers of the 
Company and its controlled entities, except where to do so would be prohibited by law. The agreement stipulates that 
the Company will meet the full amount of any such liabilities, including costs and expenses. 
To the extent permitted by law and professional regulations, the Company has agreed to indemnify its auditors, Ernst & 
Young Australia, as part of the terms of its audit engagement agreement against claims by third parties arising from the 
audit. The indemnity does not apply to any Loss resulting from Ernst & Young Australia’s negligent, wrongful or wilful 
acts or omissions. No payment has been made to indemnify Ernst & Young Australia during or since the financial year.

Directors’ Report 
20. Remuneration 
Dear Shareholders, 
Your Board is pleased to present the Remuneration Report for the year ending 31 December 2024. 
This year has been marked by significant progress against our strategy. EOS has focused on growing the three core 
product ranges of Remote Weapons Systems, High Energy Laser Weapons and Space Control. In line with this focus 
we recently sold EM Solutions, our non-core satellite communications subsidiary, for $158.6m. 
Company Performance 
The Group’s financial results for FY24 were solid: 
• Revenue from continuing operations increased by 9 per cent to $176.6m; 
• Net Loss After Tax for the Group (including discontinued operations) reported continued to reduce on our path to 
sustainable profitable operation to $19.7m in FY24; 
• Our share price increased 25 per cent through the year to $1.30 as at 31 December 2024; and 
• After the balance date, following the completion of the EM Solutions divestment on 31 January 2025, EOS has no 
borrowings and holds approximately $128.0m in cash. In addition to cash balances, EOS had a further, $48m of 
restricted cash held as security for bank guarantees. 
FY24 Remuneration Outcomes – STI and OEIP 
Our remuneration framework is designed to attract and retain executives with appropriate skills and experience. The 
Group operates internationally and must compete globally in the defence sector. Our framework strikes a balance 
between fixed pay and at-risk pay, ensuring our KMP are compensated in a manner that is both competitive and aligned 
with global standards. Our global perspective is reflected in the service-based component of the OEIP, a common 
practice outside of Australia. 
In addition to market-based adjustments to fixed remuneration for our executive KMP, the performance outlined above 
resulted in FY24 STI outcomes of 35 per cent of maximum for the MD/CEO and 54 per cent of maximum for the CFO/ 
COO. Details are set out in section 21.1 (iv) of this report. 
The higher value in 2024 share-based payments for the MD/CEO relates to the deferral of the 2023 grant requiring 
shareholder approval at the 2024 AGM. 
The first tranche of the FY23 LTI grant was available for vesting following the end of the financial year, and will be 
reported upon in the FY25 remuneration report. 
The Board believes that our incentive outcomes are a fair reflection of the achievements of management throughout 
the year. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024

Directors’ Report 
FY24 Remuneration changes 
Several changes were made to our remuneration framework in FY24. 
i. STI Deferred Equity Adjustment: To further align executive remuneration with shareholder outcomes, a 25 per cent 
deferred equity component has been incorporated into the STI structure for KMP, with a 12-month deferral period. 
This directly ties a portion of the STI to the company’s medium-term performance. 
ii. NED Fee Increase: As disclosed in the 2023 Remuneration Report, after assessing the market competitiveness of 
our director fees we increased those fees from 1 January 2024 to better reflect the demands and responsibilities of 
our directors and to continue to be competitive in attracting directors of appropriate experience and skill. The Chair’s 
fee was increased $175,000 per annum, while the fees for our directors were increased to $100,000 per annum. 
Changes to Remuneration for FY25 
i. LTI Modifications: 
a. The FY25 LTI grant to KMP will be allocated 25 per cent in Rights which vest for continued service and 75 per 
cent in performance-based Options (previously 50/50). This shift places greater emphasis on performance 
driven incentives. 
b. The FY25 LTI issue of options will be based on a relative TSR performance measure, replacing the share price 
hurdle that was used for previous issuances. 
The Board will continue to review our remuneration framework in line with practices in the markets in which we operate 
and with reference to feedback from our shareholders. 
Yours sincerely 
Air Marshal Geoffrey Brown AO 
Chair – People and Culture Committee

Directors’ Report 
Non-executive Directors 
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of Non-executive Director and senior manager 
remuneration is separate and distinct. 
Non-executive Director remuneration reflects the Group’s desire to attract, motivate and retain experienced directors 
and to ensure their active participation in advocating for the interests of shareholders, in areas such as corporate 
governance, remuneration, compliance, risk and Group strategy. The size of the remuneration pool that can be paid to 
Non-executive Directors is governed by resolutions passed at a General Meeting of shareholders. 
Each Non-executive Director receives a fee for serving as a Director of the Company. The level of Director remuneration 
is as follows: 
All fees presented above include statutory superannuation, where applicable. Directors may be reimbursed for 
expenses reasonably incurred in attending to the Group’s affairs. 
Non-executive Director fees are determined within an aggregate Directors’ fee pool limit, which is periodically 
recommended for approval by shareholders. Shareholders approved a resolution at the 2020 AGM to set the aggregate 
pool limit of Non-executive Director fees at $1,000,000 per annum (excluding options). This limit has not increased 
since 2020. The manner in which this limit is apportioned amongst Directors, and the policy of granting options to 
Directors, is determined by Directors within this limit set by shareholders. 
As identified in the 2023 annual report, the Board increased the level of Director fees paid within this limit, to $175,000 
for the Chair and $100,000 for each Non-executive Director, effective from 1 January 2024. The change was approved 
following a review and benchmarking to ensure that the fees paid to the Chair and Directors remains competitive to 
attract appropriately qualified Directors. 
No options were granted to or exercised by any Non-executive Director during 2024.

Directors’ Report 
21. Remuneration Report (Audited) (continued) 
Executive Pay 
The Group aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position, 
responsibilities and performance, in a way that aligns with business strategy so as to: 
• reward executives for Group and individual performance against targets set by reference to suitable benchmarks; 
• align executive’s interests with those of shareholders; and 
• ensure that the total remuneration paid is competitive by market standards. 
i. Structure 
The remuneration paid to executives is set with reference to prevailing market levels and typically comprises a fixed 
salary, short-term incentive and a long-term incentive, comprising share options and share rights. Incentives are 
granted to executives in line with their respective levels of experience and responsibility. Details of the amounts paid, 
and the number of options granted to executives are disclosed elsewhere in the Directors’ Report. 
ii. Employment contracts 
Executives and senior management are employed under standard employment contracts which contain no unusual 
terms. Beyond accrued leave benefits, there are no other termination payments or golden parachutes for any Directors 
or executives. The MD/CEO and the other senior management have 90-day notice periods under their employment 
contracts. 
iii. Fixed remuneration 
The level of fixed remuneration for executives is set at market competitive levels to attract and retain executives of 
appropriate international experience and is reviewed and benchmarked periodically. 
iv. Short-term performance incentives (STI) 
Executives and senior management have a target STI opportunity based on the accountabilities of their specific role 
and impact on the Group’s performance. Each year appropriate targets and key performance indicators (KPI’s) are 
determined for each individual to reflect the core drivers of short-term performance and to provide a framework for 
delivering sustainable value to the Group, its shareholders and customers. 
Five to six KPI’s are determined for each participant which cover both Group and business unit financial performance 
measures and individual non-financial measures of performance. For each KPI, a base, target and a stretch objective is 
set. Each KPI is weighted evenly. 
Performance measures for the MD/CEO and CFO/COO are set by reference to the following criteria: 
MD / CEO 
CFO / COO

Directors’ Report 
The STI is determined after the end of the financial year following a review of performance over the year against the STI 
performance measures by the MD/CEO (and in the case of the MD/CEO and CFO/COO, by the Board). The STI is paid 
following the release of this Financial Report. 
Group earnings, revenue, cash flow, order book and business unit profits are measures against which the Group’s short-
term financial performance is assessed. Non-financial hurdles relate primarily to the delivery of team or business unit 
objectives and projects. 
During 2024, the structure of the STI was amended for the MD/CEO and the CFO/COO with the introduction of an STI 
deferral element where 25 per cent of STI payable is in the form of deferred equity in EOS shares. 
v. Long-term incentives – Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan (“OEIP”) 
During 2023, the OEIP, was established to replace the legacy LFSP. It is anticipated that annual grants will be made to 
senior managers under the OEIP to align remuneration with the creation of shareholder value over the long term. 
The grant under the OEIP comprises: 
a. share options with share price vesting targets intended to drive performance that will generate significant 
shareholder value; and 
b. share rights, with service-based vesting that are intended to retain the management team. 
In both cases, the value of the reward is linked to the future share price, providing strong alignment with shareholders. 
The initial LTI grant to the MD/CEO and CFO/COO was structured as 50 per cent options and 50 per cent rights, 
however in future issues the composition will be 25 per cent rights and 75 per cent options. 
There is not expected to be any change in share capital as a result of the existing OEIP allocations as it is anticipated 
the existing allocations will be funded by shares already issued and held in trust as lapsed shares from the legacy LFSP. 
The structure of the OEIP is detailed below with full details of offers included in Note 22 to the financial statements.

Long Term Incentive – Legacy Plans 
During 2023 the Board determined to replace the legacy Loan Funded Share Plan (“LFSP”) and the legacy Employee 
Share Option Plan (“ESOP”) with the OEIP as the long-term incentive for management. 
Of the 790,000 shares allocated at the beginning of the year to the legacy LFSP, 320,000 shares were forfeited during 
the year, either as a result of not meeting performance conditions, expiry or cessation of employment. 470,000 legacy 
LFSP shares remain at the end of the financial year. 
Of the 370,000 remaining unlisted options at the beginning of the year issued under the legacy ESOP, 290,000 options 
were forfeited during the year, either as a result of not meeting performance conditions, expiry or cessation of 
employment. 80,000 legacy ESOP options remain at the end of the financial year. 
It is not intended that any future grants will be made under the legacy LFSP or legacy ESOP. These employee options 
have similar vesting and forfeiture conditions as those issued under the legacy LFSP. 
Legacy LFSP 
Details of the historical grants under the legacy LFSP are outlined below. 
Vesting Principles 
The shares will vest at the end of each ‘Vesting Period’ in the manner set out in the tables below, provided that the 
following conditions are met: 
a. Directors and employees continue to provide services to the Group on each of the vesting dates (or such other 
date on which the Board makes a determination as to whether the vesting condition has been met); and 
b. the performance hurdles are satisfied, which relate to the Company’s earnings before income tax (EBIT) and the 
Company’s share price. Notably, EBIT and share price hurdles must both be achieved in order for Shares to vest 
under each tranche. 
Elements of remuneration related to performance 
There are service conditions and performance conditions both market and/or non-market conditions attached to the 
restricted fully paid ordinary shares issued under the share plan. 
The overall performance of the Company as measured by the share price will determine whether the shares vest and 
whether the Director or executive receives any benefit from these shares. The time service condition was chosen by the 
Board as an appropriate condition as it helps in the retention and motivation of staff. 
The ordinary restricted shares were issued to Directors, senior executives and senior staff under the legacy LFSP. These 
ordinary restricted shares are subject to performance and vesting conditions. 
Further measures, hurdles and sale restrictions 
Employees and Directors may be subject to individualised measures and hurdles associated with any shares issued 
to them under to the legacy LFSP. To the extent shares vest, they will be subject to sale restrictions as outlined in the 
tables below for each separate issue of loan funded shares.

21. Remuneration Report (Audited) (continued) 
In order for vesting to occur, the share price hurdle must be reached on at least 30 trading days, not necessarily 
consecutive, by the share price hurdle expiry date. If the vesting conditions are not satisfied, or if the Board determines 
that they cannot be satisfied, the unvested Shares will be forfeited. 
Additional vesting conditions exist for some senior employees under the terms of the legacy LFSP which specifically 
relate to the performance of their business sectors within the Group. These conditions are outlined in Note 22 of the 
financial statements. 
As at 31 December 2024, there remains 470,000 LFSP shares on issue.

options and share rights under the new Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan.

Directors’ Report 
22. Non-audit services 
The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services, during the year, by the auditor (or by another person 
or firm on the auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the 
Corporations Act 2001. The Directors have formed this view based on the fact that the nature and scope of each type of 
non-audit service provided means that the audit independence was not compromised. 
Details of amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the year by the auditor are 
contained in Note 31 to the financial statements. 
23. Auditor’s Independence Declaration 
The auditor’s independence declaration is included on page 58 of this Annual Report. 
Signed in accordance with a resolution of Directors made pursuant to s.298(2) of the Corporations Act 2001. 
On behalf of the Directors

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
65 
Financial Statements and Notes 
1. Basis of Preparation 
a. Corporate Information 
The consolidated financial statements of Electro Optic 
Systems Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, 
the Group) for the year ended 31 December 2024 
were authorised for issue by the Directors on 
25th February 2025. 
Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited (the Company, or 
parent) is a limited company incorporated and domiciled 
in Australia and whose shares are publicly traded. 
The registered office is in Symonston, Canberra, Australia. 
For the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial 
statements, the Company is a for-profit entity.  
b. Basis of Preparation 
The consolidated financial statements are general 
purpose financial statements which have been prepared in 
accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and Australian 
Accounting Standards issued by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB) and International Financial 
Reporting Standards as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) (collectively referred to 
as IFRS) and complies with other requirements of the law. 
The financial report has been prepared on the basis of 
historical cost unless otherwise stated. Cost is based on 
the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for 
assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, 
unless otherwise stated. The presentation and functional 
currency of the Group is Australian dollars. Certain 
comparative amounts have been restated to apply with the 
method of computation in the current year. 
The Company is a company of the kind referred to in ASIC 
Corporations (Rounding in Financials/Directors’ Reports) 
Instrument 2016/191, dated 24 March 2016, and in 
accordance with that Corporations Instrument amounts 
in the financial report are rounded to the nearest thousand 
dollars ($’000), unless otherwise indicated. 
The Group includes material accounting policies in the 
notes to the financial statements, specifically where 
accounting policies have been made in relation to the 
recognition and measurement basis used and are relevant 
to an understanding of the financial statements. 
On 21 November 2024, the Group announced the decision 
to sell EM Solutions Pty Ltd (EMS), a wholly owned 
subsidiary. EMS is disclosed as a discontinued operation 
at 31 December 2024. The prior year comparatives 
in the financial statements and accompanying note 
disclosures have been restated as required to reflect the 
change accordingly. 
c. Going Concern 
The financial report has been prepared on the going 
concern basis which assumes continuity of normal 
business activities and the realisation of assets and the 
settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business 
and at amounts stated in the financial report. 
For the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group incurred 
a loss before tax from continuing operations of $38.5m 
(December 2023: loss of $55.6m) had a net cash outflow 
from operating activities of $30.4m (December 2023: net 
inflows of $113.1m) and had a net decrease in cash and 
cash equivalents held of $17.5m (December 2023: net 
increase of $49.3m). At 31 December 2024 the Group had 
a cash balance of $52.3m (December 2023: $71.0m) and 
net current assets of $150.2m (December 2023: $103.9m). 
In 2022, the Group entered into binding agreements with 
a financier for three borrowing facilities. Two of these 
facilities were repaid in full prior to year end with $26.9m 
repaid in September 2023 and $20.5m repaid in April 2024. 
The remaining term loan facility of $52.1m which was 
scheduled to be due for repayment in October 2025 was 
required to be repaid in full upon the divestment of EMS. 
On 31 January 2025, following the divestment of EMS, 
the Group had no external borrowings and approximately 
$128.0m cash at bank. 
As described in Note 30, under an existing contract EOS 
has offset credit obligations in the Middle East. As EOS 
expects to generate offset credits via economic activity 
and does not expect to settle the offset obligation in cash, 
either through the credit purchase program or the bank 
guarantee, the cash flow forecast to 31 August 2026 does 
not include cash outflows relating to this obligation. 
The Group continues to closely monitor its cash flow 
outlook and compliance with financial covenants as 
described in Note 17. 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 
For the year ended 31 December 2024 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
66 
Financial Statements and Notes 
1. Basis of Preparation (continued) 
The Directors, in their consideration of the appropriateness 
of the going concern basis for the preparation of this 
annual financial report, have caused to be prepared a cash 
flow forecast through to 31 August 2026 which supports 
the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. 
The underlying assumptions of the forecast include 
acknowledgement of the intrinsic operational risks of 
the business, the existing cash position of the Group, the 
need to secure sufficient new cash flow positive contracts 
and to deliver against contracts on time, to the required 
specifications and within budgeted costs. 
At the date of signing this report, based on this review, 
the Directors consider they have reasonable grounds to 
believe that the Group will continue as a going concern. 
They note that the continued ability of the Group to pay 
its debts as and when they become due and payable is 
dependent on: 
• the Group securing sufficient new cash flow positive 
contracts, including converting key opportunities within 
the Defence and Space sector pipelines; 
• the Group continuing to deliver against its contracts 
on time, to the required specifications and within 
budgeted costs; 
• the receipt of significant cash collections from 
customers as a result of: 
a) the continued realisation of the contract asset; and 
b) key military and government customers making 
timely payments for the goods and services supplied 
in accordance with contractual terms. 
• the Group operationlising the approved business plan to 
acquit the offset obligations, refer to note 30 for further 
details; and 
• continuing compliance with financial covenants. 
d. Basis of Consolidation 
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the 
financial statements of the Company and entities controlled 
by the Company. Control is achieved when the Company: 
• has power over the investee; 
• is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its 
involvement with the investee; and 
• has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. 
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an 
investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are 
changes to one or more of the three elements of control 
listed above. 
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company 
obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the 
Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, 
income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed 
of during the year are included in the consolidated 
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income from the date the Company gains control until the 
date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. 
All intra-Group assets and liabilities, equity, income, 
expenses, and cash flows relating to transactions 
between members of the Group are eliminated in full 
on consolidation. 
Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries are identified 
separately from the Group’s equity therein. The interests 
of non-controlling shareholders with present ownership 
interests entitling them to a proportionate share of net 
assets upon liquidation may initially be measured at fair 
value or at the non-controlling interests’ proportionate 
share of the fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable net 
assets. The choice of measurement is made on an 
acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Other non-controlling 
interests are initially measured at fair value. Subsequent to 
acquisition, the carrying amount of non-controlling interests 
is the amount of those interests at initial recognition 
plus the non-controlling interests’ share of subsequent 
changes in equity. Total comprehensive income is 
attributed to non-controlling interests even if this results in 
non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Financial Statements and Notes 
e. Adoption of New and Revised Standards 
New and amended standards that are effective for the current year 
The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting 
Standards Board (AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current year. These standards did not 
materially affect the Group’s accounting policies or any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements. 
New and revised AASB Standards in issue but not yet effective 
At the date of authorisation of the financial statements, the Group has not applied the following new and revised Australian 
accounting standards, interpretations and amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.

Management is assessing the impact of AASB 18 on presentation and disclosures in the Group’s financial statements. 
The other new accounting amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s accounting policies or 
any of the amounts recognised in the financial statements. 
f. Foreign Currency 
(i) Foreign currency transactions 
Transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. 
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency closing rates of 
exchange at the reporting date. 
Exchange differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss. 
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are recorded using the exchange 
rates at the date of the transaction. 
Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when 
the fair value was measured. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated 
in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e. translation differences on items 
whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognised in other 
comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively). 
(ii)Foreign operations 
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations 
(having non-AUD functional currency) are translated into Australian dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting 
date, income and expense items are translated at the average rate of exchange for the respective months. Exchange 
differences arising on such translation are recognised as currency translation reserve under equity. 
Exchange differences arising from the translation of a foreign operation previously recognised in currency translation 
reserve in equity are not reclassified from equity to the consolidated profit or loss until the disposal of the operation.

Financial Statements and Notes 
1. Basis of Preparation (continued) 
g. Accounting Judgements and Estimates 
The key assumptions concerning the future and other 
key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting 
date, that have a significant risk of causing a material 
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and 
liabilities within the next financial year, are described in the 
applicable notes to financial statements. 
The Group based its assumptions and estimates on 
parameters available when the consolidated financial 
statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and 
assumptions about future developments, however, may 
change due to market changes or circumstances arising 
that are beyond the control of the Group. Estimates and 
underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing 
basis and changes are reflected in the assumptions when 
they occur. 
Refer to the relevant note to financial statements for the 
estimates and judgements applied. 
h. Goods and Services Tax 
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the 
amount of goods and services tax (GST), except: 
• where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable 
from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of 
the cost of acquisition of an asset or as part of an item 
of expense; or 
• for receivables and payables which are recognised 
inclusive of GST. 
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, 
the taxation authority is included as part of receivables 
or payables. Cash flows are included in the statement of 
cash flows on a gross basis. The GST component of cash 
flows arising from investing and financing activities which 
is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is 
classified as operating cash flows. 
i. Climate-Related Matters 
The Group considers climate-related matters in estimates 
and assumptions, where appropriate. This assessment 
includes a wide range of possible impacts on the Group due 
to both physical and transition risks. Even though the Group 
believes its business model and products will still be viable 
after the transition to a low-carbon economy, climate-related 
matters increase the uncertainty in estimates and 
assumptions underpinning several items in the financial 
statements. Even though climate-related risks might not 
currently have a significant impact on measurement, 
the Group is closely monitoring relevant changes and 
developments. The items and considerations that are most 
directly impacted by climate-related matters are: 
• Useful life of property, plant and equipment. 
i. When reviewing the residual values and expected 
useful lives of assets, the Group considers 
climate-related matters, such as climate-related 
legislation and regulations that may restrict the use 
of assets or require significant capital expenditures. 
• Impairment of non-financial assets. 
i. The value-in-use may be impacted in several 
different ways by transition risk in particular, such 
as climate-related legislation and regulations and 
changes in demand for the Group’s products. Even 
though the Group has concluded that no single 
climate-related assumption is a key assumption for 
the 2024 impairment test, the Group considered 
expectations for increased costs of emissions, 
increased demand for goods sold by the Group and 
cost increases due to stricter recycling requirements 
in the cash-flow forecasts in assessing value-in-use 
amounts. See Note 12 for further information. 
• Decommissioning liability. 
i. The impact of climate-related legislation and 
regulations is considered in estimating the timing 
and future costs of decommissioning the Group’s 
manufacturing facilities. 
In 2024, the Australian government passed the 
Climate-related Financial Disclosures Act - Treasury Laws 
Amendment (Financial Market Infrastructure and Other 
Measures) Act 2024. The new Act mandates listed entities 
to disclose their climate -related plans, financial risks and 
opportunities, in accordance with Australian Sustainability 
Reporting Standards (ASRS). 
The Group has assessed its compliance with the ASRS 
requirements. Based on the Group’s assets and revenue 
thresholds as at 31 December 2024, the Group falls under 
“Group 2 entities”, with mandatory reporting commencing 
on 1 January 2027. 
During the year, the Group engaged an external 
sustainability and climate expert to support the Group 
as part of its proactive approach to prepare for ASRS 
compliance. In this initial phase, the Group conducted 
introductory workshops with key management across 
the group, performed an ASRS gap assessment, 
and developed an initial roadmap to address key 
gaps identified. 
The Group plans to conduct a climate risk and 
opportunities assessment during 2025 and 2026 as part 
of the phased approach. Involving key management and 
operational employees, this assessment will help evaluate 
the Group’s climate risk profile, including climate change, 
and identify areas for development to meet emerging 
climate-related disclosure requirements.

Recognition and measurement 
The Group recognises revenue from the following major sources: 
• engineering design, manufacture and supply of remote weapon systems and related installation, integration and support 
services; and 
• design, manufacture, delivery and operation of sensors and data for space domain awareness and space control. 
Customer contracts across all segments, including both products and services, are highly customised and are configured 
specifically for each client’s operational and commercial requirements. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024

Financial Statements and Notes 
2. (Loss)/Profit Before Tax– Continuing Operations (continued) 
(i) Transaction price 
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in a contract with a customer. 
This transaction price is updated for changes in scope or price (or both) that are approved by all parties to the contract, 
either in writing or by oral agreement. 
Revenue recognition is constrained for negative variable consideration in relation to delays in formal customer acceptance 
or potential late delivery penalties/liquidated damages. Once the constraint is removed, a cumulative catch-up adjustment 
is made to recognise the related revenue. 
There is no significant financing component in the Group’s contracts with customers as the period between provision of 
goods and services and the receipt of cash from customers is less than a year. Payment terms which extend beyond a year 
are for reasons other than the provision of a significant financing component. 
(ii) Timing of revenue recognition 
The timing of revenue recognition (i.e., over time or at a point in time) is determined by the nature and specifications of the 
contracts that the Group enters into with its customers. 
A. Revenue recognition over time 
Goods manufactured and services delivered under the Group’s major contracts do not have an alternative use for the Group 
and the Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, therefore, the Group recognises 
revenue for its major contracts over time. 
• The transaction price is allocated to performance obligations based on standalone selling prices. The output method, 
based on the delivery of goods or services to customers or the achievement of contract milestones, best depicts 
progress under these contracts as it represents the best measurement of value to the customer of goods or services to 
date relative to the remaining goods or services promised under the contract. 
• For other contracts the input method offers the best depiction of progress under the contract. For such contracts, the 
Group recognises revenue by reference to costs or labour hours incurred to date relative to total expected contract costs. 
B. Revenue recognition at a point time 
For contracts where revenue at a point in time offers the best depiction of the Group’s satisfaction of its performance 
obligations, the Group recognises revenue when control transfers to the customer. Control is assessed as transferred 
to the customer when the Group has a present right to payment for the asset, typically upon delivery of goods and 
services to customers. 
Under bill and hold arrangements, revenue is recognised once formal acceptance is received from customers. 
Interest revenue is recognised using the effective interest rate method. 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
The Group estimates variable considerations to be included in the transaction price and also makes judgements in terms of 
the nature and timing of revenue recognised under contracts. 
Under a major production contract with a foreign customer, late deliveries against the contracted schedule, due in part to 
customer requested changes and other factors, resulted in the application of late delivery penalties in 2023 and 2024. These 
penalties, and potential penalties where revenue has been recognised but the cash not yet received, have been recognised 
as constrained revenue of $6.9m during the year (2023: $7.0m). The Board is confident that the recovery of penalties will be 
achieved given the status of these contract amendments, the Group’s positive operating performance under the contract, 
good relationships with the client and track record of payments received to date.

The tax rate used in the above reconciliation is the corporate tax rate of 30% payable by Australian corporate entities on 
taxable profits under Australian tax law, 30% in Germany, 17% in Singapore, 9% in United Arab Emirates and 28% in New 
Zealand. Tax rates in the USA apply at a Federal, State and local level and can vary depending upon location. The tax rates 
applicable to the Group’s USA operations haves been assumed to approximate a combined rate of 21%. There has been no 
change in the corporate tax rate when compared with the previous reporting year. 
As disclosed in Note 5, the Group announced and entered in a binding sales agreement for the divestment of EMS on 
21 November 2024 which triggers a capital gain tax (“CGT”) event. The capital loss related to the SpaceLink (“SPL”) entity 
that was a discontinued operation in 2022.

At the reporting date the Group has unused tax losses emanating from its non-Australian entities. No deferred tax asset 
has been recognised in respect of these balances as it is not considered probable that there will be future taxable profits 
available in these jurisdictions.

Recognition and measurement 
(i) Current tax 
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit 
or tax loss for the year, using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. 
Current tax for current and prior years is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable). 
(ii) Deferred tax 
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and 
liabilities in the financial statements and their corresponding tax base. 
In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised 
to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary 
differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. 
However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise 
from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of business combination) which affects neither 
taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary 
differences arising from goodwill. 
Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with these investments and interests are only 
recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of 
the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the 
assets and liabilities giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or 
substantively enacted by the reporting date. 
The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in 
which the Group expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against 
currents tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to 
settle current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
77 
Financial Statements and Notes 
(iii) Current and deferred tax for the year 
Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive 
income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also 
recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is 
taken into account in the determination of goodwill or bargain purchase gain. 
(iv) Tax consolidation 
The Company and all its wholly-owned Australian entities are part of a tax-consolidated Group under Australian taxation law 
with effect from 1 January 2003. Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited is the head entity in the tax-consolidated Group. 
Tax expense/income, deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the members 
of the tax-consolidated Group are recognised in the separate financial statements of the members of the tax-consolidated 
Group using the ‘separate taxpayer within the Group’ approach. 
Current tax liabilities and assets and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and tax credits of the members of 
the tax-consolidated Group are recognised by the company (as the head entity in the tax-consolidated Group). 
There are formal tax funding and tax sharing arrangements between the companies comprising the Australian 
tax-consolidated Group as at 31 December 2024. Subsequent to year end, the Group completed the sale of EMS on 
31 January 2025. As a result of this transaction, EMS is no longer part of the Group’s tax consolidated group from the 
effective date of disposal. 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent it is probable that the taxable profit will be available 
against which the losses can be utilised. Significant judgement is required to determine the amount of the deferred tax 
assets that can be recognised, based on the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits, together with future tax 
planning strategies. 
The Directors made a critical judgement in relation to recognising some of the deferred tax balances described in Note 
4(b). The Directors currently consider it probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible 
temporary differences can be utilised in the Australian tax Group. 
The Directors also made a critical judgement in relation to not recognising deferred tax balances on tax losses. In addition, 
no deferred tax assets have been recognised in the foreign subsidiaries.

5. Discontinued Operations 
On 21 November 2024, EOS entered into a binding share sale agreement to sell EM Solution Pty Limited and its subsidiary 
(“EMS”) to Cohort plc (“Cohort”) for an enterprise value of $144.0m. The transaction was subject to the satisfaction of 
conditions including counterparties under certain material contracts providing consents, waivers or amendments, and the 
non-occurrence of any material advance changes. The disposal is consistent with the Group’s transformation strategy to 
focus on commercialising its substantial intellectual property and growing its core product offerings in the areas of RWS, 
high energy laser weapons and space control. 
EMS was expected to be sold within 12 months from 31 December 2024, and has been classified as a disposal group held 
for sale and presented separately in the statement of financial position. Subsequent to the end of the financial year, the 
transaction was settled on 31 January 2025 as described in Note 32. 
Significant accounting judgement and estimates 
The Directors considered EMS met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and as a discontinued operation on 
21 November 2024 for the following reasons: 
• EMS is available for immediate sale and can be sold to the buyer in its current condition; 
• EMS is a separate line of business in the Space Systems segment, and is a cash-generating unit of the Group; 
• EMS has distinct and separate products from the Group. EMS manufactures and sells satellite and 
frequency terminals; and 
• the Group has a confirmed contract with a buyer for an agreed price that remains only subject to the satisfaction 
of several conditions to enable settlement of this contract. 
The activities relating to EMS have been classified as a discontinued operation in accordance with accounting standards. 
The comparative consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income has been re-presented 
to show the discontinued operations separately from continuing operations. The intra-group transactions between 
discontinued operations and continuing operations have been fully eliminated in the consolidated financial result. 
The proceeds of disposal are expected to substantially exceed the carrying amount of the related net assets and 
accordingly no impairment losses have been recognised on the classification of these operations as held for sale.

5. Discontinued Operations (continued) 
Recognition and measurement 
A disposal group qualifies as a discontinued operation if it is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or it 
is classified as held for sale and: 
a. represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, 
b. is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, or 
c. is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. 
Non-current assets (and disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair 
value less costs to sell. 
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered through a sale 
transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the 
asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Actions required to complete the sale should 
indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the decision to sell will be withdrawn. 
Management must be committed to the sale which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within 
one year from the date of classification. 
When the Group is committed to a sale plan involving loss of control of a subsidiary, all of the assets and liabilities of that 
subsidiary are classified as held for sale when the criteria described above are met, regardless of whether the Group will 
retain a non-controlling interest in its former subsidiary after the sale. 
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated or amortised once classified as held for sale. 
Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial 
position, and no longer presented in the segment note. 
Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount 
as profit or loss after tax from discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other 
comprehensive income. 
Cash flows from discontinued operations are included in the consolidated statement of cash flows and are disclosed 
separately in this note. The Group includes proceeds from disposal in cash flows from discontinued operations. 
All other notes to the financial statements include amounts for continuing operations, unless indicated otherwise.

Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are generally on terms of 30 days. 
The Group measures the loss allowance for trade receivables at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit loss (ECL). 
The ECL on trade receivables are estimated by reference to past known default experience of the debtors and an analysis of 
the debtors’ current financial position, adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtors. Based on this analysis, any ECL 
on trade receivable balances at the end of the year are immaterial. 
There has been no change in the estimation techniques or significant assumptions made during the current reporting year. 
There were no receivables written off during the year and no receivables balances, as at the end of the year, are subject to 
enforcement activities.

Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
Timing differences between revenue recognition and invoicing are expected to arise due to differences between 
the Group’s revenue recognition policies (see Note 2) and the terms of the underlying contracts. The Directors have 
concluded that any estimated credit losses against the contract asset are immaterial. This judgement is based on the 
nature of the counterparties involved (primarily sovereign entities), the payments received during the year, and continuing 
communications with clients regarding administration of the underlying contracts. 
The Group assesses for any constrained revenue and the recoverability of the contract asset. The contract asset balance 
has been reduced by the $6.9m estimated constrained revenue during the year (2023: $7.0m). The Group believes the 
contract asset balance remains recoverable. This judgement is based on the nature of the counterparties involved, 
contract amendment discussions that are underway with customers, payments received during the year and continuing 
communications with the clients regarding administration of the underlying contracts. 
A critical judgement exists in relation to the recoverability of the contract assets. Of the total contract asset of $57.4m, an 
amount of $53.5m relates to a contract with a customer in a foreign jurisdiction. Significant collection of the contract asset 
was realised during the year with a net reduction in the balance of $10.7m since December 2023. 
The Directors have reviewed the collectability of the $57.4m contract asset as at 31 December 2024 and concluded that 
no provision should be recognised on the basis of cash received to date and the creditworthiness of the counterparty, 
amongst other factors. Furthermore, the Directors are of the view that the estimates used in preparing this financial report 
are reasonable.

Recognition and measurement 
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 
Costs are assigned on the following basis: 
Raw materials: 
weighted average cost basis for raw material inventory 
Work-in-progress: standard cost 
Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of 
completion, estimated costs necessary to make the sale, and provision for obsolescence. 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
The Group assesses the risks of inventory obsolescence, particularly for certain stock items experiencing slow market 
demand and potential technological obsolescence. Given the evolving market conditions and rapid technological 
advancements, an additional provision has been recognised this year to reflect the expected net realisable value of affected 
inventory. The provision estimate is based on forecasted demand, expected lifecycle changes and ageing of inventory. 
The Group will continue to monitor these factors and adjust the provision as necessary.

Recognition and measurement 
The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is or contains a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right 
to control the use of an identified asset for the period of time in exchange for consideration. 
The Group recognises a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability (Note 18) with respect to all lease agreements 
in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases 
of low value assets. For these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line 
basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which 
economic benefits from the leased asset are consumed. 
The Group recognises right of use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e. the date the underlying asset is 
available for use). Right of use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and 
adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right of use assets includes the amount of the lease liability 
recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease 
incentives received.

Financial Statements and Notes 
10. Right of Use Assets (continued) 
Right of use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives 
of the assets. Right of use assets are also subject to impairment in line with AASB 136 Impairment of Assets. 
Where the Group has an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset, restore the site on which it is located 
or restore the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is recognised 
and measured under AASB 137. The costs are included in the related right of use asset, unless those costs are incurred to 
produce inventories. 
If a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right of use asset reflects that the Group expects to 
exercise a purchase option, the related right of use asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset.

Recognition and measurement 
Goodwill is initially recognised and measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any 
non-controlling interests in the acquirer, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest (if any) over the net 
of the acquisition-date amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. 
Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill 
is allocated to each of the Group CGU’s expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. CGUs to which goodwill 
has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be 
impaired. Goodwill is classified as held for sale if it is directly associated with the assets and liabilities of a disposal group.

Financial Statements and Notes 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
The Directors made a critical judgement in relation to the recoverable amount of goodwill and the allocation of goodwill to 
the three CGUs. 
The Group assesses each CGU, where possible, at year end, to determine whether there are any indications of impairment 
or reversal of impairment. Where an indicator of impairment or reversal exists, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount 
is made. Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are assessed at least on an annual basis. 
Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less cost of disposal and value in use calculated in accordance with 
the Group accounting policy. These assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions such as the pipeline of 
sales opportunities, discount rates applied to estimated free cash flows, and long-term growth rates applied in estimating 
the future value of our CGUs. The recoverable amount is sensitive to these assumptions used for the discounted 
cashflow model. 
The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different CGU’s are disclosed and further explained 
in Note 12. 
12. Impairment of Assets 
Impairment Indicators and Testing 
At each year end, the Group assesses whether indicators of impairment or impairment reversal exist at an individual asset 
level, where possible, and a CGU level. 
(i) Market capitalisation deficiency 
At 31 December 2024, the market capitalisation exceeded the carrying amount of the Group’s net assets. Despite this, 
there were periods during the year when the carrying amount of the Group’s net assets exceeded its market capitalisation. 
A market capitalisation deficiency is an indicator of potential impairment of goodwill and assets under AASB 136 
Impairment of Assets. Given that the Group’s market capitalisation did not consistently exceed its net assets throughout 
the year and considering the ongoing economic uncertainty, an assessment of the recoverable amount of each of the three 
CGUs, Defence, EMS and Space was performed at 31 December 2024. This assessment showed the recoverable amount 
for all CGUs being higher than their carrying values and as such the Group did not identify any impairments required at 
31 December 2024. 
(ii) Right of use assets 
In prior periods, an impairment expense of $1.3m and $2.4m was recognised in relation to the right of use asset for Defence 
and Corporate respectively. The Group has re-assessed and determined that no indicators of impairment reversal existed at 
31 December 2024. 
Recognition and measurement 
At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets to determine whether 
there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable 
amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). Where the asset does 
not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. 
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an 
indication that the asset may be impaired. An impairment of goodwill is not subsequently reversed. The recoverable amount 
is the higher of fair value less cost of disposal and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows 
are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of 
money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. 
If the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the 
asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
86 
Financial Statements and Notes 
12. Impairment of Assets (continued) 
Other than goodwill, where an impairment loss subsequently reverses the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased 
to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed 
the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or CGU in 
prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
At 31 December 2024, an indicator of impairment exist as described in Note 12(i). As a result, an assessment of the 
recoverable amount of each of the three CGUs, was undertaken. No impairments, or reversals of impairments, were 
recognised as a result of the Group’s 31 December 2024 assessment. 
Key assumptions and sensitivities used for impairment assessment performed during the year ended 
31 December 2024 
The recoverable amount of the CGUs of the Group have been assessed by reference to the higher of value in use and 
fair value less cost of disposal arrived by discounting a cash flow forecast with the weighted average cost of capital of 
each CGU. 
For EMS CGU, it was concluded that fair value less costs of disposal exceed the value in use based on the binding sales 
agreement, as described in Note 5. 
Assumption 
Basis of Assumption 
Future sales levels 
Derived from the Company’s multi-year revenue outlook. 
Discount rate 
Takes into account the risk-free rate, equity market risk and the specific risk premium for each CGU. 
Long-term growth rate 
Represents the rate relevant to market conditions and business plans. The long-term growth rate included in the 
terminal value in calculating the value in use for each CGU was 2.5% (2023: 2.5%). 
The Board monitors climate-related risks when measuring the recoverable amount. While the Group believes its operations 
are not significantly exposed to physical risk, the value-in-use may be impacted by climate related legislation and 
regulations and their impact on demand for the Group’s products. The Group has concluded that no single climate-related 
assumption is a key assumption for the 2024 impairment test. 
Management reviewed the discount rates used based on the prevailing market conditions as of 31 December 2024, the risk 
profile related to assumed future cash flows and other relevant considerations. The discount rates used in calculating the 
value in use for each CGU are given below: 
2024 
2023 
Defence 
14.17% 
14.02% 
Space 
20.02% 
20.09% 
The Group conducted a sensitivity analysis to test changes in the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable 
amount for each of the CGUs. Sensitivity testing for CGUs included reducing future sales levels by 10%, reducing the 
long-term growth rate to 0.5% and increasing the discount rate by an additional 3%. It was observed that a reasonable 
change in future sales levels and discount rates could cause impairment in the Space and Defence CGUs.

13. Intangible Assets (continued) 
Recognition and measurement 
(i) Research and development costs 
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the year in which it is incurred. Where no internally 
generated intangible assets can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the 
year as incurred. 
(ii) Intangible assets acquired in a business combination 
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognised separately from goodwill where they 
satisfy the definition of an intangible asset, and their fair value can be measured reliably. 
Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost 
less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, on the same basis as intangible assets 
acquired separately. 
The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of amortisation on a straight-line basis: 
Product development costs 
3-5 years 
Core technology (not patented) 
10 years 
Patented technology 
15 years 
Software 
5 years 
Customer contracts and relationships 
15 years 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
A critical judgement exists in the decision to capitalise development work in progress. The Group capitalises costs for 
product development projects. Initial capitalisation of costs is based on judgement that technological and economic 
feasibility is confirmed, usually when a product development project has reached a defined milestone. In determining the 
amounts to be capitalised, the Directors make assumptions regarding the expected future cash generation of the project. 
At 31 December 2024, the carrying amount of capitalised product development costs was $18.7m. The asset is driven 
by capital works undertaken by Defence Systems and Space Systems. During 2024, an assessment was undertaken and 
$12.9m was reclassified from property, plant and equipment to intangible assets as the Group confirmed its intention to 
utilise these assets as a prototype to facilitate future sales opportunities. 
A critical judgement also exists in relation to the recoverability of development work in progress. The Group continues to 
invest in the ongoing engineering development of counter drone defence, predominantly in the areas of directed energy 
(DE) and counter uninhabited aerial strike (CUAS) technologies. The Directors have assessed the recoverable amount of 
these development works in progress asset on 31 December 2024 and concluded that no impairment is required to be 
recognised. This judgement is based on the engagements, negotiations and demonstrations completed during the year and 
the feedback received from industry partners and potential customers. Contract negotiations for its DE launch product are 
underway with at least one potential customer.

14. Property, Plant and Equipment (continued) 
Recognition and measurement 
Plant and equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Cost 
includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of an item. In the event that settlement of all or part of the 
purchase consideration is deferred, cost is determined by discounting the amounts payable in the future to their present 
value as at the date of acquisition. 
Depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment. Depreciation is calculated so as to write-off the net cost or other 
revalued amount of each asset over its expected useful life to its estimated residual value. Leasehold improvements are 
depreciated over the period of the lease or estimated useful life, whichever is the shorter, using the straight-line method. 
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each annual accounting 
period. In particular, the Group considers the impact of health, safety and environmental legislation in its assessment of 
expected useful lives and estimated residual values. Furthermore, the Group considers climate-related matters, including 
physical and transition risks in determining if climate-related legislation and regulations might impact either residual values 
or useful lives. 
The following estimated useful lives are used in the calculation of depreciation: 
Plant and equipment 
2 to 25 years 
Leasehold improvements 
3 to 8 years 
Office equipment 
2 to 20 years 
Furniture, fixture and fittings 
5 to 15 years

Secured Borrowings - WHSP 
(i) In 2022, the Group entered into three secured borrowings with WHSP (“WHSP facilities”): 
a. Working Capital Principal Facility of $20.0m. 
b. Additional Working Capital Facility of $15.0m 
c. Term Loan Principal Facility of $35.0m. 
The key terms of each facility were included in the announcement dated 13 October 2022 “EOS enters into New 
Financing Facilities & continues development of Strategic Growth Options”. 
(ii) On 10 April 2024, EOS announced the $20.5m full repayment of an Additional Working Capital facility. This followed the 
repayment of $26.9m in September 2023 of the initial Working Capital facility. 
(iii) During the year, a $4.5m fee was paid to WHSP following the resolution of a previous commercial dispute (announced 
on 22 December 2023). The agreement was previously conditional on the approval of Export Finance Australia (“EFA”), 
and payment of the $4.5m fee. EFA approval was received in February 2024 and the $4.5m payment was made in full 
and final settlement of the dispute. This fee was recorded as a finance cost expense in the prior year. 
(iv) As at 31 December 2024, the Group had a Term Loan principal facility of $35.0m with a maturity date of 
11 October 2025. The facility carried interest of 22% per annum and line fees of 4%. This loan was secured by a general 
security deed which ranked pari passu with the EFA facility. 
As at 31 December 2024 the Term Loan facility was fully drawn.

Subsequent to year end, on 31 January 2025, EOS completed the early repayment of this Term Loan. As announced 
on 21 November 2024, this early repayment was required as under the borrowing agreements, the completion of the 
divestment of EMS required the repayment of EOS’ outstanding debt facility with WHSP in full. The total repayment made 
on 31 January 2025 was $61.1m, including the scheduled payment at maturity of $52.1m plus a ‘make whole’ penalty 
which applied in the case of early repayment. 
This results in all amounts borrowed from WHSP in 2022 having been repaid subsequent to year end.

17. Borrowings (continued) 
Under agreements with WHSP and another funding provider (EFA, which provided financial guarantees as described in Note 
30), the Group had obligations to comply with covenants at 31 December 2024: 
(i) The asset coverage ratio was required to be more than 1.6:1. This covenant applies on and from 31 December 2023 and 
is required to be tested quarterly until the facilities are repaid. 
(ii) Interest coverage ratio was required to be more than 2:1. This ratio is defined as Group’s net cash flow from operations 
(adjusted for interest payments) relative to the interest expense. This covenant applies on and from 31 December 2023 
and is required to be tested quarterly until the facilities are repaid. 
Both funding providers waived the requirement to test covenant compliance at 31 December 2024. 
Following the Term Loan repayment to WHSP outlined above, the Group will still be required to comply with quarterly 
covenants under the bond facility agreements with Export Finance Australia. 
The total reported borrowings amount at 31 December 2024 shown above include the total outstanding borrowings owing 
to lenders, including capitalised fees and interest, less the unamortised transaction costs of establishing borrowings:

The Group has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. These options are negotiated by 
management to provide flexibility in managing the lease portfolio and to align with the Group’s business needs. Judgement 
is exercised in determining whether the extension and termination options are reasonably certain to be exercised. The 
Group does not face a significant liquidity risk with regard to its lease liabilities. All lease obligations in Australia are 
denominated in Australian dollars and leases in overseas entities are based in the currency of the country concerned. 
The Group had a net cash outflow for leases of $5,230,000 (2023: $4,648,000) during the financial year. 
Recognition and measurement 
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognised lease liabilities measured at the present value of the lease 
payments to be made over the lease term. In calculating the present value of the lease payment, The Group uses the 
discount rate implicit in the lease, or if this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. 
The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability 
(using the effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made. 
The Group remeasures the carrying amount of the lease liability if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, 
a change in the lease payments (eg, changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to 
determine lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

Recognition and measurement 
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation, the future sacrifice of economic benefits is probable, 
and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably. 
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the 
receivable is recognised as an asset if it is probable that recovery will be received, and the amount of the receivable can be 
measured reliably. 
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation, 
taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash 
flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
95 
Financial Statements and Notes 
(i) Employee benefits 
The provision for employee benefits relates to the liability for annual leave, long service leave, wages and salaries and 
expected short-term incentive obligations to employees. 
Provision is made for benefits accruing to employees when it is probable that settlement will be required, and they are 
capable of being measured reliably. 
Provisions made in respect of short-term employee benefits are measured at their nominal values using the remuneration 
rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. 
Provisions made in respect of long-term employee benefits are measured as the present value of the estimated future 
payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. 
(ii) Warranty 
Provisions for warranty costs are recognised as agreed in individual sales contracts, at the Directors best estimate of the 
expenditure required to settle the Group’s liability. Sales-related warranties cannot be purchased separately, and they serve 
as an assurance that the products sold comply with agreed-upon specifications. 
A critical judgement is made in relation to the valuation of the provision for warranty costs with the valuation determined 
based on the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group’s liability under its warranty obligations. 
Estimates and outcomes that have been applied in the assessing warranty provisions may change in the future and the 
Group will recognise any revisions deemed necessary as a result. 
(iii) Make good and decommissioning provisions 
The provision for decommissioning costs relates to an obligation to dismantle and refurbish a telescope at a future date, 
and the provision for make good relates to obligation to make good on leased assets. 
Make good provision, including decommissioning costs, is recognised when there is a present obligation which it is 
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle and the amount of the provision can be measured 
reliably. The estimated future obligations include the costs of dismantling and removing leasehold improvement, 
decommissioning plant and equipment, or otherwise restoring facilities and premises as required in accordance with the 
underlying agreements. 
(iv) RWS units and parts 
The provision for RWS units relates to the cost to manufacture and resupply RWS systems and parts for an existing 
customer and is recognised when there is a present obligation under an existing contract to settle the Group’s obligation 
under the contract and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably. The estimated future obligations include the 
costs of the manufacture and resupply as required in accordance with the underlying agreements. 
A critical judgement in relation to the provision for the cost to manufacture and resupply RWS units and parts to an existing 
customer is based on the best estimate of the cost required to settle the Group’s obligation under this contract. Estimates 
and outcomes that have been applied in the assessing this provision may change in the future and the Group will recognise 
any revisions deemed necessary as a result. 
(i) Legal costs 
The provision relates to estimated legal costs to resolve a legal dispute and is recognised when there is a present obligation 
which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle and the amount of the provision can be 
measured reliably. 
Critical judgement has been applied in relation to the provision for legal costs based on the best estimate of the expenditure 
required to settle the Group’s liability to resolve the legal matter. Estimates and outcomes that have been applied in the 
assessing this provision may change in the future and the Group will recognise any revisions deemed necessary as a result.

The employee equity-settled benefits reserve arises on the grant of share options and share rights to directors and 
employees under the legacy ESOP, legacy LFSP and Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan. Further information about 
share-based payments to employees is in Note 22 to the financial statements. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024

Financial Statements and Notes 
22. Share-based Payments 
Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. Fair value is measured by use of 
either the Monte Carlo model or the Binomial model. The models have been adjusted, based on best estimates, for the 
effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations. The fair value determined at the grant 
date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the 
Group’s estimate of shares that will eventually vest. 
Ordinary shares issued under the legacy LFSP are accounted for as an in-substance option and initially measured using a 
Monte Carlo simulation model. Directors reassess the non-market inputs and adjust throughout the life for likely eventuality. 
Significant accounting judgements and estimates 
Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, 
which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate 
inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option or appreciation right, volatility and dividend yield 
and making assumptions about them. 
(a) Legacy Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP) 
The Group had a previous ownership-based compensation scheme where employees may be granted options to purchase 
ordinary shares at an exercise price based on market prices at the time the option issue was made. Each unlisted share 
option converts to one ordinary share in Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited. No amounts are paid or payable by the 
recipient on receipt of the options. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of expiry. 
The number of options granted takes into account both Company and individual achievements against both qualitative and 
quantitative criteria. Shares are held in an employee share trust until all vesting conditions are satisfied in accordance with 
their terms of issue. No options were granted or exercised during the current or the comparative year. It is not anticipated 
that any further issues will be made under this plan.

The employee options under legacy ESOP have similar vesting and forfeiture conditions as those issued under the legacy 
LFSP summarised below. 
(b) Legacy Loan-Funded Share Plan (LFSP) 
Details of the grants made under the legacy LFSP in 2020 and 2021 are detailed below. No new loan funded shares have 
been granted since 2021. 
Under the LFSP, fully paid restricted ordinary shares in the Company are acquired by participants using a loan made to them 
by the Company. Shareholders approved the establishment of the LFSP on 24 April 2018. 
The loans are limited recourse, interest and fee free and are repayable in full on the earlier of the termination date of the loan 
(five years) or the date on which the shares are sold in accordance with the terms of the LFSP. 
The legacy LFSP shares are accounted for as options, which give rise to share based payments. 
The LFSP shares are subject to both ‘vesting conditions’ and ‘forfeiture conditions’. Vesting conditions are split into two 
tranches for each grant which are required to be satisfied for shares to vest. Shares are subject to forfeiture if the vesting 
conditions are not met or participants cease to be employed in the Group. When vesting conditions are met, the shares vest 
and participants may deal with them in accordance with the LFSP rules. 
Vesting conditions require: 
(a) continued provision of services to the Group by the participant on the vesting date; and 
(b) performance hurdles to be satisfied, which relate to the Group’s earnings before income tax (EBIT) and the Company’s 
share price. 
If the vesting conditions are not satisfied, the unvested shares are forfeited.

(c) Omnibus Employee Incentive Plan (“OEIP”) 
The Board established a long-term incentive plan OEIP for senior management in 2023 to align remuneration with the 
creation of shareholder value over the long-term, and to replace the legacy LFSP and the legacy ESOP. 
(i) Share options OEIP 
Each share option converts to one ordinary share in Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited. The options carry neither 
rights to dividends nor voting rights. The options may be exercised by paying the exercise price at any time from the date of 
vesting to the date of expiry. 
The number of options granted takes into account both the seniority of the individual role and their ability to drive Group and 
divisional performance. 
On 30 May 2024, 2,100,000 share options were issued to the Managing Director and CEO, Dr Schwer, following approval at 
the AGM. The terms are consistent with those of options issued in 2023 to employees, with an exercise price of $0.50 which 
was equal to the market value of the shares at the time the plan commenced development. 
On 30 August 2024, 71,500 share options were issued to senior management as a deferred 2023 incentive and 794,898 
share options were granted to senior management as an incentive relating to the 2024 year.

31 December 2024 was a testing date which resulted in 3,332,534 share options vesting at that date. These will 
become exercisable in late February 2025. The options were priced using the Monte Carlo Simulation method model. 
Where relevant, the expected life used in the model has been adjusted based on the best estimate for the effects of 
non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural conditions. Expected volatility is based on the historical share price 
volatility. Staff options carry no rights to dividends and no voting rights.

(ii) Share rights OEIP 
Each share right converts to one ordinary share in Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited. No amounts are paid or payable 
by the recipient on receipt of the share rights. Rights will be converted into ordinary shares upon the satisfaction of the 
vesting conditions. 
The number of rights granted is determined by the Directors and takes into account both the seniority of the individual role 
and its ability to drive Group and divisional performance. 
On 30 May 2024, 1,260,000 share rights were issued to the Managing Director and CEO, Dr Schwer, following approval at the 
AGM. The terms are consistent with those of 2023 share rights issued to staff with share rights vesting and converting to 
ordinary shares upon the successful completion of service periods by the senior executives. 
On 30 August 2024, 42,900 share rights were issued to senior management as a deferred 2023 incentive and 152,545 share 
rights were issued to senior management as a 2024 incentive. 
Vesting Principles 
The rights will vest in the below proportions based purely on a service condition if the employee remains employed by the 
Group on the below hurdle dates:

31 December 2024 was a testing date which resulted in 868,839 share rights vesting at that date. These will be issued and 
become exercisable in late February 2025. 
The rights issued were priced using the Binomial model. Where relevant, the expected life used in the model has 
been adjusted based on management’s best estimate for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and 
behavioural conditions.

Fair value of rights on grant date

$1.09 
$1.45 
$1.52 
As there are no market-based vesting conditions, the fair value at grant date is estimated using a Black-Scholes option 
pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the rights were granted. Each share right converts 
to one ordinary share upon vesting and there is no exercise price required to be paid upon the conversion of the share right 
into an ordinary share. 
The fair value of the rights granted during the year ended 31 December 2024 was assessed on the date of grant and are 
consistent with the spot value on grant date. The fair value of each share right granted at 21 May 2024 was $1.45 and 
$1.52 for those issued 30 August 2024. The valuation at this grant date for the options and rights issued to the CEO and 
Managing Director was higher than the estimate determined in the prior financial year. As such, the Group recognised a 
$0.7m adjustment for the revised valuation. 
For the year, the Group recognised a total of $3.4m of share-based expense for all incentive plans, including the $0.7m 
adjustment referred to above.

(i) 
Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited is the head entity within the tax-consolidated Group. 
(ii) These companies form part of the Australian consolidated tax entity. 
(iii) These wholly-owned subsidiaries have entered into a deed of cross guarantee with Electro Optic Systems Holdings 
Limited pursuant to ASIC Corporations (Wholly-owned Companies) Instrument 2016/875 and are relieved from the 
requirement to prepare and lodge an audited financial report. 
On 6 April 2018, the parent entity, Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited entered into a deed of cross guarantee 
with two of its Australian wholly-owned subsidiaries Electro Optic Systems Pty Limited and EOS Defence Systems 
Pty Limited. On 28 November 2019, the parent entity Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited entered into a Deed of 
Assumption which joined EM Solutions Pty Limited as part of the Deed of Cross Guarantee from the effective date of 
acquisition which was 11 October 2019. 
Subsequent to year end, the Group completed the sale of EMS, and as a result of this transaction, EMS was removed 
from the Deed of Cross Guarantee. Refer to Note 32 for details of the transaction. 
(iv) EOS Loan Plan Pty Ltd is the trustee of the legacy LFSP. EOS Loan Plan Pty Ltd was incorporated on 5 December 2019. 
Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited has the ability to direct the relevant activities of the entity. 
(v) Effective from 17 October 2022, EOS Defence Systems USA (EOSDS USA), a United States based subsidiary, is 
managed through a Special Security Agreement (SSA) as required by the US National Industrial Security Program 
(“NISPOM”). The SSA enables EOSDS USA to enter into contracts with the US Department of Defence that contain 
certain classified information. 

Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited  | Annual Report 2024 
106 
Financial Statements and Notes 
26. Controlled Entities (continued) 
The SSA is an instrument designed to mitigate the risk of foreign ownership, control or influence over a US entity that 
has security clearance under the NISPOM. The SSA denies the foreign owner unauthorized access to classified and 
export-controlled information while preserving the foreign owner’s voice in the business management of the company. 
Under the SSA, the Group has the right to appoint a representative (Inside Director) along with three Outside Directors. 
The Outside Directors must be US citizens approved by the US Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA). 
The Group maintains its involvement with EOSDS USA’s activities through normal business activity and liaison with the 
Chair of the SSA and through the Inside Director. The operational and governance activities and results are reviewed 
by the Group’s management. These activities are all performed within the confines of the SSA such that EOSDS USA 
operates its business within the requirements necessary to protect the US national security interest. 
An assessment has been performed in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements of whether, for 
accounting purposes, the Group controls EOSDS USA. The Group is exposed to variable returns from its investment in 
EOSDS USA and there is assessed to be sufficient power within the confines of the Proxy agreement for the Group to 
use its influence to affect those returns. As such, under AASB 10, it is deemed that the Group controls EOSDS USA and 
therefore the results of EOSDS USA are consolidated into the Group’s consolidated accounts. 
(vi) Whilst the Group owns less than 50% of the shares, pursuant to the shareholder and related agreements, it has 
existing rights that give it the ability to direct the relevant activities of the company and is entitled to 80% of company 
distributions. 
(vii) EOS Defense Systems Pte Limited is audited by Assurance Affiliates, Chartered Accountants in Singapore and EOS 
Advanced Technologies LLC is audited by M A International Consulting LLC in UAE and are the only entities with a 
separately appointed statutory auditor. 
(viii) In April 2024, EMS established a new trading entity in the Netherlands to support its growth agenda in Europe in future 
years. In the same period, a new company, ‘EOS Innovation Singapore Pte Ltd’, was established to carry out new 
product development work on our High Energy Laser Weapon system as a Laser Innovation Centre in Singapore under 
the Defence Segment.

Financial Statements and Notes 
27. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies 
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise receivables, payables, contract assets, borrowings, finance leases, 
cash and short-term deposits. These instruments expose the Group to a variety of risks that it must manage including, 
market risk (such as currency risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest 
rate risk. 
The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures. 
The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities recognised in these financial statements 
approximate their fair values. The amounts disclosed in this note exclude contract asset balances as these are not 
financial assets. 
Risk exposures and responses 
a. Interest Rate Risk 
The Group’s exposure to market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s cash holdings. 
At balance date the Group had the following mix of financial assets exposed to interest rate risk that are not designated in 
cash flow hedges: 
Financial assets 
2024 
$ ‘000 
2023 
$ ‘000 
Cash and short-term deposits 
41,078 
70,997 
Security deposits 
49,476 
67,056 
Total 
90,554 
138,053 
At balance date the Group had financial liabilities with a fixed rate of interest. These liabilities therefore do not introduce an 
exposure to movement in interest rates. 
Financial liabilities

Borrowings 
47,939 
64,822 
Total

64,822 
The Group constantly analyses its interest rate exposure. Within this analysis consideration is given to potential renewals of 
existing positions, alternative financing and the mix of fixed and variable interest rates.

The movements in profits are due to lower interest rates on cash balances of 50 basis points (2023: 10). 
b. Foreign Currency Risk 
The Group’s financial results can be significantly affected by movements in the US$/A$ exchange rates. There are also 
exposures to Singapore dollars, UAE Dirham, Euro and the New Zealand dollars from operations in those countries. 
Exchange rates are managed within approved policy parameters using natural hedges and no derivatives are used. 
The Group also has transactional currency exposures. Such exposures arise from sales or purchases by an operating 
entity in currencies other than the functional currency. The Group is mainly exposed to the currency of US dollars, Euro, and 
Singapore dollars. The following tables details the Group’s sensitivity to a percentage increase and decrease in currency 
units against these foreign currencies. 
The policy of the Group is to convert surplus foreign currencies to Australian dollars, excluding foreign currencies relate 
to discontinued operations. The Group also holds cash deposits in US dollars to secure US dollar bank guarantees 
and performance bonds to overseas customers. At 31 December 2024, the Group the following exposure to US$

The Group believes the balance date risk exposures are representative of risk exposure inherent in financial instruments. 
As noted, foreign currency transactions entered into during the financial year are managed within approved policy 
parameters using natural hedges. The Directors do not consider that the net exposure to foreign currency transactions is 
material after considering the effect of natural hedges. 
c. Credit Risk Management 
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the 
Group. The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties. The Group is exposed to credit 
risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables and contract asset) and from its financing activities, including 
deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments. 
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings from international 
credit agencies. Refer Note 6 and Note 7 for further information on credit assessment for receivables and contract assets.

27. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies (continued) 
d. Liquidity Risk Management 
The Group’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to 
meet its liabilities when due. 
Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors, which has built an appropriate 
risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long term funding and liquidity 
requirements. The Group manages liquidity by seeking to maintain adequate cash reserves, continuously monitoring 
forecast and actual cash flows and managing the maturity profiles of financial assets. 
Liquidity and interest tables 
The following table detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The table has 
been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group 
can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

f. Commodity Price Risk 
The Group’s exposure to commodity price risk is minimal. 
Recognition and measurement 
(i) Financial assets 
A. Classification 
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories: 
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (through profit or loss or other comprehensive income); and 
• those to be measured at amortised cost. 
The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing financial assets and the contractual cash flow 
characteristics of the financial assets. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded through 
profit or loss or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model 
in which the investment is held. 
For investments in equity instruments not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group has made an irrevocable 
election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive 
income. The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those 
assets changes. 
B. Measurement 
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at 
fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. 
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss. Measurement 
of trade and other receivables remains at amortised cost consistent with the prior year. 
C. Debt instruments 
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing the asset and the 
cash flow characteristics of the asset. The consolidate entity measures its debt instruments using the amortised cost 
basis. Using this method, assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent 
solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is 
subsequently measured at amortised cost and is not part of a hedging relationship is recognised in profit or loss when 
the asset is derecognised or impaired. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the 
effective interest rate method. 
D. Impairment 
The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its debt instruments carried at 
amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. 
For trade receivables, contract assets, loans to associates and lease receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach 
permitted by AASB 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. 
(ii) Financial Liabilities 
A. Interest bearing liabilities 
All loans and borrowings are initially recognised at fair value less transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing 
liabilities are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption value being recognised in the 
statement of profit or loss over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis. 
B. Trade and other payables 
Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid for goods or services received. Trade payables are settled on terms aligned 
with the normal commercial terms in the Group’s countries of operation.

28. Segment Information - Continuing Operations 
AASB 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group 
that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to 
assess performance. 
a. Segment Determination 
The Group identifies its operating segments based on internal reports reviewed and used by the Group’s chief operating 
decision maker (the Chief Executive Officer) to determine business performance and resource allocation. Operating 
segments are aggregated after considering the nature of the products and services, nature of production processes, type 
of customer and distribution methods. As a result, EMS and Space Systems segments were merged to form an enlarged 
Space Systems segment until the Group classified EMS as a discontinued operation in 2024. The segment information 
reported in this note does not include any amounts for the discontinued operations (refer Note 5). The comparative 
information has been restated to reflect the change in segment reporting in accordance with the accounting standards. 
As a result, the Group’s reportable segments are Defence Systems and Space Systems. 
(i) Defence Systems 
Defence Systems develops, manufactures and markets advanced fire control, surveillance, and weapon systems to 
approved military customers. These products either replace or reduce the role of a human operator for a wide range of 
existing and future weapon systems in the US, Australasia, Middle East, Europe and South-east Asia markets. 
(ii) Space Systems 
Space Systems has a range of ground products available to support the Australian and international space markets. 
They include: 
• significant investments into passive optical and laser sensing equipment at both its Mt Stromlo and Learmonth sites; 
• manufacturing and supply of various telescopes and dome enclosures for customers around the world. Space Systems 
astrometric products provide reliable and high-quality optical systems under demanding environmental conditions; and 
• specialisation in innovative optical, microwave and on-the-move radio and satellite products that help to deliver high 
speed, resilient and assured telecommunications anywhere in the world. Developments in the Group’s laser technology 
has opened aligned markets in space optical communications and various high power laser applications. 
b. Geographic Activity 
The Group continues to operate in Australia, USA, Singapore, UAE, New Zealand, Netherlands and Germany in the 
development, manufacture and sale of telescopes and dome enclosures, laser satellite tracking systems, and the 
manufacture of remote weapon systems.

The revenue reported above represents revenue from external customers. The Group had two customers that each 
provided in excess of 10% of consolidated revenue. The customers are within the Defence segment. One customer 
represented revenue of $72,113,000 and the other represented $28,734,000 during the year. 
Segment results represent the profit or loss earned by each segment without the allocation of central administration 
costs and corporate costs, including director fees, finance costs, investment revenue and income tax. This is the 
measure reported to the chief operating decision maker for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of 
segment performance.

commence legal proceedings against the Company, the Directors believe that any actions can be successfully defended. 
As at the date of this report no material legal proceedings have been commenced against any entity within the Group. 
(c) The Group had previously executed an offset agreement in relation to an overseas Defence System contract for an 
amount of US$16.9m (A$27.3m) secured by an offset bond for the full amount. The offset bond is guaranteed by Export 
Finance Australia (EFA) and is secured by a cash security deposit of US$13.7m (A$22.1m) and a fixed and floating charge 
over the assets of the Group. 
Under the offset program, offset credits can be earned by: 
(i) investing in the country; 
(ii) engaging in contracts that support local industry; or 
(iii)making other contributions. 
This is a common requirement for suppliers like EOS. Under the offset program guidelines, participants typically have 
several years in which to earn offset credits. As an alternative to generating offset credits through the offset program, 
in certain circumstances, offset credits can be generated through participation in the credit purchase program, which 
involves settling obligations by making cash payments. 
As part of the offset program, EOS is required to develop, agree and submit an approved business plan, which will 
generate offset credits, to the offset credit authority. A proposed business plan was submitted to the offset authority 
in September 2023. During the year the Group continued to have advanced discussions regarding the business plan with 
the offset credit authority and, as at balance date, the business plan remained under review by the offset credit authority 
In addition during the year, consistent with the proposed business plan, EOS entered into a non-binding memorandum of 
understanding (“MOU”) with Shielders Advanced Industries (“Shielders”), a specialist manufacturer in the Middle East. The 
MOU envisages the formation of a Joint Venture (“JV”) between Shielders and EOS that focusses on local manufacturing 
and assembly of RWS, assisting EOS in meeting its offset obligations. 
  Subsequent to balance date, on 20 February 2025, the Group received approval from the offset credit authority for the 
business plan. The business plan envisages that EOS will enter into a 49% EOS owned JV with Shielders Advanced 
Industries to set up local manufacturing and assembly of EOS’ R150 Remote Weapon System product in the Middle East. 
Under the approved business plan, EOS has from 1 July 2026 until 1 July 2033 to set up the JV and earn the relevant 
offset credits. This includes in kind contributions including the licensing of EOS owned IP, and providing technical data 
packages and manufacturing knowhow to the JV.

Financial Statements and Notes 
30. Contingent Liabilities and Commitments (continued) 
Under the approval from the offset credit authority the final form of the JV agreement, along with other agreements 
necessary for the JV to manufacture and assemble EOS product in the Middle East, require the approval of the offset 
credit authority and approval of the JV agreement must be obtained from the offset credit authority within a maximum of 
6 months from 20 February 2025. Under the approved business plan in order to earn offset credits EOS must contribute 
not less than AED 18.365m (approximately A$7.8m) in cash to the JV. 
As a result of the above, EOS considers that both at balance date and as at the date of this report it was in compliance 
with its obligations. In the event that EOS does not comply with its obligations in future, the offset credit authority is 
entitled to demand payment under the guarantee outlined above. 
(d) The Group maintains a performance bond for US$33.2m (A$53.5m) in relation to an overseas defence sector contract. 
The performance bond is guaranteed by Export Finance Australia under a Bond Facility Agreement and is secured 
by a cash security deposit of US$15.8m (A$25.5m) and a fixed and floating charge over the assets of the Group. 
The covenants attached to the Export Finance Australia facilities are identical to those specified under the WHSP 
loan facilities. 
(e) Performance bonds of $22.2m to a domestic customer in Australia were issued and was partially secured in 2023. This 
bond was fully secured by cash deposits in 2024. These performance obligations were satisfied during 2024 and the cash 
security returned to the Group. 
(f) $6.0m of performance bonds were issued in 2023 to support an EMS contract to deliver and install communication 
systems to the Royal Australian Navy. This guarantee is secured by a cash security deposit of $6.0m. These security 
deposits are disclosed as part of the discontinued operations in Note 5. Subsequent to year end, this arrangement was 
divested as part of the sale of the EMS business. Refer to Note 32 for details. 
(g) The completion of the EMS divestment post year end automatically triggered the full repayment of EOS’ outstanding Term 
Loan facility with WHSP, including a ‘make whole’ fee which applied in the case of early repayment. 
As at 31 December 2024, the total estimated repayment amount was $62.3m, including the scheduled payment at maturity 
of $52.1m plus a potential ‘make whole’ fee. The exact ‘make whole’ fee was contingent upon the timing of the settlement. 
Subsequent to year end, the divestment was completed on 31 January 2025, and the early repayment of the Term Loan 
facility at completion was $61.1m, including the scheduled payment at maturity of $52.1m plus the ‘make whole’ fee. 
(h) Electro Optic Systems Holdings Limited entered into a deed of cross guarantee on 6 April 2018 with two of its 
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Electro Optic Systems Pty Limited and EOS Defence Systems Pty Limited, pursuant to ASIC 
Corporations (Wholly-owned Companies) Instrument 2016/785 and was relieved from the requirement to prepare and 
lodge an audited financial report. On 28 November 2019, EMS entered into an Assumption Deed and became a party 
to the Deed of Cross Guarantee. Subsequent to year end, the Group completed the sale of EMS, and as a result of this 
transaction, EMS was removed from the Deed of Cross Guarantee. Refer to Note 32 for details of the transaction.

32. Subsequent Events 
On 31 January 2025, EOS announced that the EMS divestment had been completed. After customary adjustments for 
estimated net debt and estimated working capital, the amount received on completion was of $158.6m on that date. 
Final completion accounts and any adjustments are expected to be agreed between the parties within 60 business days. 
Contemporaneous with the completion of the transaction, EOS repaid WHSP $61.1m. This represents the final repayment 
of WHSP of all outstanding amounts, including ‘make whole’ payments required under the borrowing agreements. Following 
this debt repayment and the divestment of EMS, EOS has no borrowings and held approximately $128.0m of available cash 
balances at 31 January 2025. 
Subsequent to year-end, on 20 February 2025, the Group received approval from the offset credit authority for the business 
plan. Refer to Note 30 for further details. 
Apart from the above, the Directors are not aware of any significant subsequent events since the end of the financial year 
and up to the date of this report.
