Revenue $308.3m 9% EBITDA $69.3m 115% NPAT 1 $127.7m 278% Operating EBIT $29.9m 2,200% Operating Cash Flow $50.5m 233% Cash at Bank EPS $106.3m 44% $0.35 275% NTA per Share $1.30 37% 1 Including asset impairment reversal and profit on sale of assets. 8 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 9 Chairman’s Report Ian Macliver Chairman FY2023 was an excellent year for MMA with positive market conditions resulting in a significant improvement in earnings. During the year, we reaffirmed the Company’s growth strategy which is focused on extracting the maximum value from current market conditions in our core markets, whilst diversifying into new growth sectors such as offshore wind, government and defence and environmental services. Pleasingly, all of our key markets are seeing positive momentum at present. Earnings before Interest Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) for the year were $69.3 million, a 115% improvement on FY2022. MMA reported strong cash flow generation with operating cash flow of $50.5 million, up 233% on the prior year. Oil and gas activity has seen a strong recovery due to persistent energy security and supply chain challenges. Greenfield project sanctioning activity has surged with over US$420 billion in new offshore projects now expected to be sanctioned in the next five years and $150 billion in our key operating regions. The offshore wind sector also continues to grow rapidly with more than 4,600 turbines to be installed in South East Asia by 2031. The offshore wind market in Australia is also gathering momentum albeit at the early stages of development. Both of these industries are driving stronger demand for our vessels and subsea services where we are seeing a marked improvement in utilisation and rates. A key part of our strategy has been to further develop our integrated services by packaging our subsea services onboard our vessels to capture a greater part of the value chain and further embed us with our clients. Having acquired the Subsea business in 2019, we are now starting to gain traction with our integrated services and delivered 10 integrated projects during FY2023 including a $30 million construction scope in Qatar, our largest integrated project to date, as well as several projects in the offshore wind sector. We will continue to drive our integrated services strategy which significantly improves the overall returns on our assets deployed. FY2023 was also a significant year for MMA in terms of Balance Sheet improvement. Following the completion of our non-core asset sales program which included the sale of our Batam shipyard facility, we finished the year with Cash at Bank of $106.3 million and Total Debt of $91.6 million placing the Company in a $14.7 million Net Cash position. In addition, the improving market conditions have positively impacted vessel values resulting in an $80.3 million reversal of previous years’ vessel impairments increasing the book value of our fleet to $431 million at 30 June 2023. Whilst our existing debt facilities were not due to expire until early 2025, our improved leverage metrics placed us in a strong position for exploring refinancing alternatives to optimise our capital structure. Subsequent to the end of the financial year, we entered into an agreement to refinance our debt, replacing our amortising term loan facility with a $120 million revolving debt facility which can be drawn down and repaid as required providing significantly increased flexibility for the Company going forward. With our new debt facility and the Company generating strong free cash flows, capital management remains a key consideration as the Company explores a range of growth opportunities whilst evaluating our capacity to improve returns to shareholders. Our diversification strategy is progressing well, and we derived 30% of our revenue from new markets during the year including 24% from offshore wind and 4% from services to government and defence. From a sustainability perspective, approximately 60% of our revenue is now derived from non-oil sources and we expect the percentage of oil related revenue to continue to decline over time, whilst gas will remain a critical transitional energy source as renewables capacity is being developed globally. Revenue from offshore wind grew from 9% of revenue in FY2022 to 24% of revenue in FY2023 and continues to be a major focus for the business, delivering on both our growth and sustainability goals. We continued to be active on several developments in Taiwan and completed our first project in South Korea during the year opening up a new and growing market for MMA. We continued to generate revenue from the government and defence sector, predominantly through our involvement in the HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program ("HIPP"). We also conducted an autonomous underwater vehicle (“AUV”) project for the Department of Defence during the year using state of the art autonomous underwater surveying technology. With an extensive future program of survey works planned around Australia as well as an increased focus on defence in general, we are focused on growing this part of the business and see increasing opportunities to support the government and defence sector with our maritime expertise. Subsequent to the end of the financial year, we secured an $80 million government contract to manage the vessel RV Investigator on behalf of the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (“CSIRO”) which represents a significant milestone in growing this part of our business. We also see tremendous potential for our new environmental and stabilisation business with multiple applications for our artificial reefs to be used to combat coastal erosion, enhance marine habitats and to sustainably decommission oil and gas infrastructure through our rigs to reef service offering. We also see potential for collaboration with offshore wind developers to use our reefs for environmental enhancement. During FY2023, we installed two new reefs in Tasmania, and we are collaborating on research into wave attenuating reefs with the University of Western Australia. We also secured our largest pipe clamping mattress project, a revolutionary and more sustainable technology for pipeline stabilisation which MMA has developed in conjunction with Shell and has the exclusive distribution rights for. As a business, we are passionate about sustainability and transforming our business along with the energy transition. We have made visible progress on our sustainability strategy over the past three years with multiple initiatives being progressed within both the environmental and social areas. Whilst there is currently no commercially available alternative to diesel for our vessel fleet, we are currently working on several operational efficiency initiatives to reduce fuel usage across the fleet. We are also making good headway on our strategy to increase our share of revenue from offshore wind in support of the global energy transition. Our environmental solutions are significantly contributing to the health of our oceans, and we are proud to be at the forefront of innovation in that area. We have also contributed to several community initiatives over the past year which has the dual impact of benefiting the community whilst increasing employee engagement and morale through participation in worthy causes. I encourage you to read our 2023 Sustainability Report which is included in this Annual Report. The health and wellbeing of our people is core to who we are at MMA. We are acutely aware of the risks associated with operating in the offshore industry and we work tirelessly to embed a culture of safety across the business. Pleasingly, we maintained our world class safety performance during the year with a TRCF of 0.26. I am also proud to say that we were recently awarded the 2022 Safety Award from the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”) for our Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program, our latest initiative to foster a positive safety culture within the business. I would like to conclude by thanking my fellow Board members for their valuable stewardship of the business during the year, paying a special mention to Peter Kennan who resigned from the Board in April 2023. Peter made a significant contribution to MMA during his tenure which saw the business successfully navigating an extremely challenging period in the offshore industry and we wish him all the best. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank MMA’s senior leadership team and all MMA’s employees around the world for their contribution to the business and their commitment and hard work which is sincerely appreciated. Having come through the challenges of the pandemic, repaired our Balance Sheet and diversified our earnings base, we now find ourselves positioned for growth across all of our key markets. I sincerely look forward to FY2024 and to delivering ongoing positive returns for our shareholders. Ian Macliver Chairman Pleasingly, all of MMA's key markets are seeing positive momentum at present. 10 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 11 Managing Director’s Report David Ross Managing Director FY2023 was a positive year for the Company with improved market conditions translating into significantly higher profitability. MMA reported FY2023 Revenue of $308.3 million, up 9% on the prior year. EBITDA for the year was $69.3 million, up 115% on the prior year. The disproportionate increase in EBITDA was the result of increased rates and utilisation, improved project delivery, a higher weighting of international revenue, an increase in the number of integrated work scopes delivered and the reduced impact of COVID-19 on our cost base. MMA generated operating cash flow of $50.5 million, up 233% on the prior year and we closed the financial year with cash at bank of $106.3 million. Market conditions continued to improve throughout the financial year with visibly increased demand for our vessels and subsea services and tighter vessel availability driving rates progressively higher. Market Conditions After a challenging and prolonged industry downturn which commenced in late 2014, we are seeing a return to more positive market conditions for the offshore industry. Energy security issues together with the impact of years of underinvestment have resulted in an uptick in investment in drilling and oil and gas project developments. Projected offshore oil and gas sanctioning activity has increased significantly with an estimated US$424 billion in new projects expected to be sanctioned globally over the next five years and US$153 billion in MMA’s key operating regions. The oil price has come down from its high of US$110 in June 2022 but has consistently stayed above US$70 per barrel over the course of the year, a price at which investment returns on most offshore projects remain attractive. Offshore wind activity continues to grow exponentially with over 4,600 turbines to be installed and US$125 billion expected to be spent on offshore wind farm developments in Asia and Australia between 2024 and 2031. As a vessel and subsea services intensive activity, offshore wind is expected to drive significant additional demand for MMA’s vessels and services over the coming years. With strong activity being experienced in both oil and gas and offshore wind, the offshore vessel market has tightened significantly over the past 12 months, which has driven vessel utilisation and rates higher and increased demand for our subsea and integrated services. With very few newbuild vessels on order and most of the remaining commercially viable stacked fleet already reactivated, vessel supply is limited and is expected to continue to result in tight market conditions over the medium term. Strategy MMA’s strategy continues to be focused on extracting the maximum return from our core business, leveraging the current recovery in oil and gas investment whilst continuing to aggressively diversify and grow our presence into new markets such as offshore wind, government and defence and environmental services creating a sustainable business for the future. The recent recovery in the oil and gas market has illustrated the operating leverage within our business in an improving market with higher utilisation and margins translating to a significant increase in earnings from our core business. Our strategy to move from a pure vessel operator to a marine services provider is beginning to drive higher returns with the subsea business, which was acquired in November 2019, making a solid contribution to earnings during the FY2023 financial year as well as enhancing vessel utilisation through several integrated work scopes. The subsea business has also been instrumental in our diversification strategy, providing MMA with early inroads into the offshore wind and government and defence sectors. A key strategic focus is to grow our integrated services offering where we mobilise our vessels with subsea equipment and personnel to deliver integrated project solutions. This strategy enables MMA to capture an increased proportion of the value chain whilst delivering a more efficient solution for our clients. The strategy is beginning to bear fruit with several integrated projects completed during FY2023 including the successful delivery of a major subsea pipeline project in Qatar significantly enhancing our track record as an integrated contractor. Our diversification strategy is progressing well with the Company generating 30% of revenue outside of our traditional oil and gas markets during the year, including 24% from offshore wind and the remaining 6% from government and defence and other services. We also completed the integration of our Environmental and Stabilisation business, which was acquired in July 2022, opening up further new growth markets for MMA in artificial reefs, coastal erosion protection and wind farm ecology, further broadening our service offering and aligning with our environmental and sustainability objectives. Sustainability / ESG Sustainability is integral to our overall strategy and purpose as an organisation and we are committed to growing our business in a sustainable and ethical way. Balance Sheet FY2023 was a milestone year in terms of repairing MMA’s Balance Sheet and returning the Company to a position of strength from which to grow. MMA completed its asset sales program during the year with the Batam Supply Base sale settling in December 2022, together with two vessels sold during the period. Total proceeds were $34.9 million which resulted in a profit on sale of assets totalling $25.1 million. As at 30 June 2023, MMA had Cash at Bank of $106.3 million, up from $73.9 million at 30 June 2022. MMA’s Total Debt (Bank Debt plus lease liabilities) was $91.6 million, down from $125.0 million at June 2022 and Net Cash (Cash less Total Debt) was $14.7 million up from a Net Debt position of $(51.1) million at June 2022. MMA’s key leverage ratios (Net Debt / EBITDA and Net Debt to Property Plant and Equipment) were effectively zero at 30 June 2023, placing MMA in a strong position from which to review and optimise its capital structure. Subsequent to the end of the financial year we entered into an agreement to refinance our debt, replacing our amortising term loan facility with a A$120 million revolving debt facility which can be drawn down and repaid as required providing significantly increased flexibility for the Company going forward. Several key initiatives have been progressed over the course of the financial year to support our environmental, social and governance objectives. The Company will have available capacity under the new facility of A$120 million providing ample liquidity for the business going forward. With our new debt facility and the Company generating strong free cash flows, capital management remains a key consideration as the Company explores a range of growth opportunities whilst evaluating our capacity to improve returns to shareholders. These include further developing our decarbonisation and fuel efficiency initiatives, increasing our percentage of revenue from offshore wind and contributing to the health of our oceans through our reefs and coastal erosion services. A comprehensive overview of our environmental, social and governance strategy and initiatives can be found in our 2023 Sustainability Report which is published as an integral part of this Annual Report. 2023 Highlights $69.3m EBITDA 115% 80 % Utilisation across the total fleet with rates improving Progressing diversification strategy 30% of revenue from offshore wind, defence and other marine services Growing Integrated Services ~$100m Revenue 96% on prior year Balance Sheet repair completed New debt facility to provide flexibility and liquidity Outlook Continuing strengthening market outlook through FY2024 and beyond 12 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 13 Operational Update Vessel Services Vessel revenue for the year was $232.4 million, up 31% on FY2022. Vessel EBITDA was $71.0 million up 108% as a result of stronger operating conditions experienced during FY2023. EBITDA margins were higher than the prior year due to the reduced impact of COVID-19 which had a material impact on FY2022 operating costs together with an increased weighting of international charters during FY2023 (with the differential in crew costs distorting the overall margin percentage). Average utilisation for the year across the fleet was 80%, up from 73% in FY2022. Utilisation on some of our larger vessels was particularly strong which has been a major driver of the improvement in earnings. MPSV utilisation was 83% up from 60%, PSV utilisation was 87% up from 74% and AHTS utilisation was 82% up from 69% with the larger AHTS vessels achieving solid utilisation throughout the year. We have also seen a strong firming in day rates, which has also directly improved our bottom line. As at 30 June 2023, 50% of available vessel days for FY2024 were contracted, increasing to 58% taking into account highly probable contract awards and extension periods. This compares to 49% and 60% at the same time last year. On a revenue basis, 45% of our forecast revenue is already under contract for FY2024, (63% including highly probable) as compared to 58% and 70% at the same time last year. MMA’s vessels were active on a range of projects during the year across oil and gas and offshore wind. The MMA Plover and MMA Brewster continued on longer term contracts supporting INPEX with production support and drilling operations for the Ichthys LNG field in Australia’s North West. The Mermaid Cove continued supporting Woodside’s North West Shelf operations on a three-year contract. As part of the contract, MMA is collaborating with Woodside using the Cove as a pilot vessel for a number of decarbonisation initiatives. This has included the installation of digital fuel monitoring software and sensors onboard the vessel and the application of an alternative lower drag hull coating during the vessel’s recent docking to measure the subsequent reduction in fuel usage. The MMA Vision supported OMV New Zealand on a three-year contract and in September 2022 was joined by the MMA Leeuwin which was mobilised to New Zealand to support OMV on a nine month drilling campaign, solidifying our position in the New Zealand market. We also secured our first long-term contract in the Bass Strait during FY2023 with the MMA Coral securing a 12-month contract plus options with Beach Energy. The MMA Privilege continued on her long- term contract providing accommodation and walk-to-work services for a FPSO operation in Côte d'Ivoire. Activity in Asia was stronger during FY2023 as the impacts of COVID-19 dissipated and we managed to secure utilisation for a number of our vessels through the traditionally quieter South East Asian monsoon period. Three vessels, the MMA Valour, MMA Vigilant and MMA Monarch, completed a seismic node survey in India together with MMA’s subsea division securing utilisation for these vessels from October 2022 through to March 2023. The MMA Majestic, one of our large AHTS vessels, operated in Malaysia for the year achieving full utilisation, a pleasing development given activity in Malaysia was minimal during the pandemic. The MMA Pinnacle in conjunction with our subsea division supported a key offshore construction scope in Qatar with multiple contract extensions taking the project through the first half and into February 2023. MMA’s vessels supported a number of offshore wind developments in Taiwan during the year including the MMA Crystal which now operates under Taiwanese flag and is chartered via our Taiwanese subsidiary, MMA Global Aqua. The MMA Crystal is fitted with an integrated ROV, survey spread and A-Frame and completed a number of wind farm support scopes during the year including cable trenching and survey support services. The MMA Pinnacle mobilised from Singapore to Taiwan in March 2023 to support Seaway 7 on a range of work scopes such as cable installation, ROV and survey operations in conjunction with MMA’s subsea division. The MMA Pride and MMA Prestige also supported wind projects with the MMA Prestige operating for the entire year in Taiwan supporting two separate wind farm developments. The Mermaid Searcher supported the Australian Government Department of Defence’s HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program (“HIPP”) Cape Leeuwin survey project between December 2022 and March 2023, making it the first HIPP scope conducted on one of our own vessels to date. To supplement our owned fleet, we entered into a bareboat charter arrangement for an additional platform supply vessel, the ASL Harmony. The charter is for a minimum of 12 months and up to four years at MMA’s option providing additional fleet capacity without the capital outlay. The vessel is currently being reactivated and is expected to join the fleet in the first quarter of FY2024. The outlook for the vessel business is looking positive with market conditions buoyant and a shortage of available vessels in the market driving utilisation and rates higher. With a relatively fixed cost base at current utilisation levels, there is further operating leverage in the MMA fleet with higher rates and utilisation translating directly to the bottom line. The outlook for the vessel business is looking positive with market conditions buoyant. 14 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 15 Growth Strategy Subsea Offshore Wind Government & Defence D S E E T C A R V G R E E T S I N I Vessels MAXIMISE CORE BUSINESS DIVERSIFY & GROW NEW MARKETS Decommissioning Project Logistics Oil & Gas Environmental Solutions Subsea Services Subsea revenue was $110.5 million for the year up 56% and subsea EBITDA was $9.5 million up almost 300% on the previous financial year. The business continues to see the benefit of improvements made to business and operational processes which has translated into enhanced operational and financial performance for the division. Our integrated services offering is also gaining traction with several integrated projects completed during the year, significantly contributing to the improved financial result for the subsea business. During FY2023, we successfully completed our largest integrated services project to date, supporting a major pipeline installation campaign in Qatar. This project utilised one of MMA’s larger vessels, the MMA Pinnacle, over a period of eight months, completing the project successfully and without incident or downtime in challenging operating conditions due to the high temperatures in Qatar. This project illustrates MMA’s capability and capacity to deliver complex subsea projects and growing this part of the business remains a key element of our strategy. Survey activity continues to be busy with MMA delivering survey services to clients across offshore wind, oil and gas and government and defence during the year. Within the offshore wind sector, MMA completed its first offshore wind survey scope in South Korea enabling MMA to build some early networks in country. South Korea is expected to generate significant future demand as offshore wind developments ramp up, and is a major future focus area for MMA. We also completed several offshore wind survey projects in Taiwan through our local entity MMA Global Aqua and with our locally flagged vessel, the MMA Crystal, which is fitted with a suite of subsea equipment and permanently located in Taiwan. MMA is also positioning itself to be a leading service provider to the Australian offshore wind industry with initial survey activity expected to commence over the coming 12 months. Within the oil and gas sector, MMA continues to be active on rig positioning surveys with Woodside in Senegal and INPEX in Australia. Rig positioning activity overall was slightly down on the prior year due to reduced drilling activity by Santos, one of our key clients. We also continued to provide inspection, maintenance and repair services including ROV work scopes onboard the MMA Pride in Brunei and the MMA Coral in the Bass Strait. MMA recently entered into a lease agreement with a third-party ROV provider to bolster our internal ROV fleet to meet increasing demand whilst preserving our capital. MMA continues to support the Australian Government Department of Defence through its involvement in the HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program (“HIPP”). During the financial year, we successfully completed the Cape Leeuwin region survey in the South West of Australia, utilising the Mermaid Searcher as the survey vessel. The project was successfully delivered notwithstanding challenging weather and sea conditions. MMA also delivered an autonomous underwater vehicle (“AUV”) project to the Australian Government during the year. Environmental and stabilisation services had a quieter year with a number of projects delayed. The environmental and stabilisation business, which was acquired in July 2022, is now fully integrated within MMA’s subsea division and solidifies our position in the subsea stabilisation market as well as bringing a number of exciting new capabilities under our subsea environmental and stabilisation service offering. Pleasingly, we were recently awarded a large Pipe Clamping Mattress (“PCM”) project for the Yellowtail Project in Guyana. PCMs are a revolutionary pipeline walking solution for the offshore oil and gas industry significantly reducing materials, logistics and installation time in comparison to more traditional stabilisation methods. MMA in conjunction with Shell developed the PCM and is focused on marketing this technology to the wider industry under an exclusive distribution agreement. As part of our environmental services offering, MMA installed two artificial reefs during the year in Tasmania. The projects involved the installation of 318 reef modules over a an eight-hectare area of seabed with the reefs expected to significantly enhance marine life in the area over time. MMA is looking at several opportunities for reefs to be installed for coastal erosion, fisheries enhancement and repurposing of retired oil and gas assets. Integrated reef solutions are also being explored with wind farm developers. The United Kingdom business had a busy year with several projects being completed including a decommissioning work scope for OMV in New Zealand as well as several subsea engineering, assembly and testing and fabrication projects. The macro-outlook for the subsea business is positive with strong activity levels being experienced across all of our service areas. Access to skilled personnel continues to be the greatest challenge across the industry at present. Project Logistics The project logistics division had a quieter year with no major offshore projects being undertaken in Australia during the year. Project logistics revenue for the year was $3.6 million, down from $60.3 million in the prior year. The division generated a slight EBITDA loss of $(0.1) million, down from a positive $2.1 million in the prior year. Whilst project activity was low during FY2023, activity is looking stronger for FY2024 with the business tendering several opportunities in Australia and the wider Asian region. We are also monitoring the situation in Mozambique with Total reportedly preparing to restart its Mozambique LNG Project. Going into FY2024, MMA has been awarded a decommissioning scope by Heerema for the Enfield Project which is expected to commence in the second quarter of FY2024. The project logistics division is ideally placed to support decommissioning works which are expected to accelerate in the coming years. Major challenges facing the project logistics business include project schedule movements and lower availability of assets, (both tugs and barges) in the broader market. The Batam Shipyard facility was sold in December 2022 with MMA moving the majority of its land-based logistics requirements to a third-party facility in Singapore. MMA continues to retain a portion of waterfront area and laydown at Batam under the sale agreement with WASCO. Activity in the project logistics segment is naturally variable and dependent on project activity. Whilst activity was soft in Australia during FY2023 as expected, the longer-term outlook for project logistics requirements in MMA’s key regions is relatively strong, with a number of large oil and gas projects flagged for development between FY2024 to FY2026. Decommissioning projects are also expected to take place in the same timeframe with project logistics being a key component of decommissioning offshore infrastructure. Similarly, the outlook for offshore wind is strong and will be a key focus area for the projects logistics group into the future. The macro-outlook for the subsea business is positive with strong activity levels being experienced across all of our service areas. 16 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 17 We continue to live our Target 365 philosophy and belief that a Perfect Day is possible 365 days a year. Notwithstanding our strong safety performance, we operate in challenging industries and strive for continuous improvement and a relentless focus on ensuring our people remain safe each and every day. Outlook for FY2024 We move into FY2024 in a strong position with a clear strategy, positive momentum across our key markets and a solid balance sheet and flexible capital structure in place. The current expectation is for continued strengthening market conditions driven by demand from both the oil and gas and offshore wind industries. Vessel supply is expected to remain constrained with few newbuilds in the pipeline and limited remaining vessels available for reactivation. Overall, we expect a continuing strengthening market outlook through FY2024 and beyond with continued improvement in earnings for FY2024. David Ross Managing Director Health & Safety Keeping our people safe and healthy remains fundamental to how we operate at MMA. With the World Health Organization (“WHO”) recently declaring the COVID-19 pandemic officially over, MMA has de- escalated many of its COVID-specific protocols, however we continue to take a risk-based approach to protecting the health and safety of our workforce. We have also retained some of the flexible working arrangements introduced during COVID-19 to promote overall wellbeing. During FY2023, we maintained our world class safety performance with a Total Recordable Case Frequency (“TRCF”) per million hours worked of 0.26, significantly better than the 2022 offshore marine industry average of 1.45 as measured by the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”). We continue to live our Target 365 philosophy and belief that a Perfect Day is possible 365 days a year. During the year we refreshed our Target 365 training and introduced an improved Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program recognising that engagement levels had reduced due to the pandemic. Pleasingly, our leadership engagement program has been very successful with over 177 engagements by management across the business during the year. The program also won the 2022 IMCA Safety Award with key insights presented at the annual IMCA Safety Conference in Amsterdam. Having face-to-face interactions is key to building a culture of safety and wellbeing within the organisation and we look forward to continuing to improve in this area. Sustainability Report 2023 18 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 19 Sustainability Report ESG Strategy Sustainability continues to be at the core of MMA’s purpose and is integral to our overall strategy to grow the business sustainably into the future. Our core belief that “marine resources should be developed sustainably” drives our strategic direction as we continue to transform our business along with the global energy transition. Whilst our traditional markets of oil and gas will continue to be an important revenue source for the business for some time, we are focused on diversifying our revenue streams into sectors which support the energy transition such as offshore wind along with other adjacent marine markets such as government and defence and environmental services. Pleasingly, offshore wind represented 24% of our total revenue during FY2023 and we expect this to grow over time. Building a Diversified Revenue Base FY21 FY22 FY23 24% 23% 30% $237m 76% $272m 77% $305m 70% Oil & Gas Offshore Wind, Govt & Defence, Other Our environmental and stabilisation business, which was acquired in July 2022, is now fully integrated and we are excited to be able to contribute to the improvement of our coastlines and marine habitats through our artificial reefs and coastal erosion solutions. We also see significant opportunity to incorporate our reefs into new wind farm developments to enhance the marine ecology around these large- scale developments. MMA is also ideally positioned to support the decommissioning of oil and gas infrastructure and has experience in converting decommissioned structures into artificial reefs, significantly enhancing the ecological outcomes of these projects. MMA’s ESG strategy continues to be focused on the following key elements: Environment – how MMA performs as a steward of nature. Social – how MMA manages its relationships with employees, suppliers, customers and the community. Governance – how MMA is governed. During FY2023, we made significant progress across a range of initiatives within our ESG strategy.

MMA is focused on Goals 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 12, 13 and 14 which are the most relevant to our operations. We believe marine resources should be developed sustainably. 20 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 21 Environment Environmental Management Systems Environmental Regulations & Conventions MMA believes that marine resources should be developed sustainably and has a robust suite of management systems and associated programs to support that aim. Our ISO 14001 certified Integrated Business Management System provides the foundation and key operational processes to ensure we go about our day-to-day operations with a focus on minimising our environmental impact. These processes are regularly reviewed, assessed and audited to ensure our level of compliance never wavers. We are proud to report that once again MMA had no non-compliance against industry standards and regulations and no adverse or reportable environmental incidents during FY2023. As a marine and subsea service provider, MMA operates in a highly regulated industry and is committed to 100% compliance with all applicable international regulations and conventions to ensure we continue to protect the marine environments in which we operate. These include: • International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL 73/78); • Technical Code on Control of Emission of Nitrogen Oxides from Marine Diesel Engines; • MARPOL Chapter IV – Regulations on Energy Efficiency for Ships – Collection and Reporting of Ship Fuel Consumption Data for >5000 GRT Vessels; • International Ballast Water Management and Performance Standard (D-2); • Biofouling management applies to All Vessels in line with MEPC.207(62); and • Inventory Hazardous Materials (“IHM”) Hong Kong Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009 certification in place, allowing for efficient ship recycling when needed. In addition to those regulated standards, MMA remains abreast of upcoming changes in the regulatory environment and is focused on implementing systems and processes to ensure that regulatory change transitions are smooth and compliance is never compromised. The Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (“EEXI”) is a measure introduced by the International Maritime Organization (“IMO”) with the aim to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of existing ships. The EEXI is a measure related to the technical design of a ship, which requires vessel owners to assess and demonstrate the energy efficiency of their vessels. Although the EEXI regulation currently does not apply to the vessels within MMA’s fleet, we are proactively implementing internal systems that will facilitate future compliance and robust reporting capability. Waste Management MMA is committed to the responsible management of waste generated as a result of our operations which includes both waste minimisation and waste recycling programs. A dedicated ‘Waste Management Working Group’ has been established which is led by the Executive General Manager Risk and reports to MMA’s ESG Steering Committee. This working group is dedicated to establishing waste management strategies across all our operations with a number of programs underway including waste recycling, elimination of single use plastics onboard our vessel fleet and supply chain improvements. The waste recycling program ensures that both our onshore facilities and vessels have the ability to segregate and recycle waste. This is supported by a robust compliance program that ensures end-to-end management, providing comfort that our waste recycling initiatives are in fact making a difference. MMA’s waste management and recycling program is extensive and includes wastepaper and cardboard, plastics, glass, e-waste and hazardous items. The elimination of single use water bottles will be a significant step forward for MMA once fully implemented. Potable water systems had previously been trialled onboard a select number of vessels, however due to the systems being incompatible with the vessel operating environment and a discontinuation of supplier maintenance support, this trial was halted. MMA is currently investigating alternative vendors with the aim of progressively installing potable water systems across the fleet. We have embarked on a comprehensive fleet digitalisation program to harness emerging technologies and data analytics to drive efficiencies and minimise our environmental footprint. Management of Adverse Environmental Events MMA has stringent controls in place to mitigate the risk of adverse environmental events such as spills. Our marine operations are conducted in accordance with approved procedures which are regularly reviewed and revised to ensure they capture operational improvements and regulatory changes. All vessel crew are appropriately trained and have a robust understanding of these processes and are empowered to call a ‘Stop to the Job’ if risks or changes are identified that have the ability to negatively impact the environment. During FY2023, MMA recorded three minor environmental spill events, however due to the small volumes and preparedness processes, these did not result in any release to the environment, were contained and addressed with no negative environmental impact. MMA’s vessel fleet operates in multiple geographical locations and as such, effective and compliant ballast water management is critical to ensuring we do not cause biodiversity incidents that have the ability to impact the delicate balance of our ocean ecosystem. In accordance with the IMO’s Ballast Water Management Convention (D-2 Standard) we have a change management program in place to ensure compliance is effectively managed to mitigate ballast water management incidents and maintain compliance with the Standard. Having taken into consideration the nature of our operations, four vessels within our fleet have converted closed loop ballast water management systems, completely mitigating the requirement to conduct ballast water exchange at sea, two vessels have approved exemptions to the Standard due to their limited area of operation and a portion of our fleet are currently in planning to have D-2 compliant systems fitted in accordance with their International Oil Pollution Prevention (“IOPP”) expiry dates. The remainder of the fleet is D-2 compliant with approved ballast water management systems fitted. Emissions Reduction In support of our overarching ESG strategy, MMA has established a Decarbonisation Working Group which is actively working on operational efficiencies, new technologies and changes in processes to reduce the emissions from our operations. As our emissions predominantly stem from the CO2 emitted by our vessels burning Marine Gas Oil (“MGO”), a low-sulphur marine fuel, this is our primary area of focus. MMA utilises MGO in comparison to Heavy Fuel Oil (“HFO”) which is utilised by the majority of the shipping industry, and as such, our fuel burn in comparison has a much lower level of carbon emissions. To effectively address and fulfil our commitment towards further reducing our emissions, we have developed a comprehensive decarbonisation strategy with a focus on fuel efficiency initiatives until such a time as alternative fuels for vessels are available. Significant progress has been made with this strategy over the past year, specifically in the following areas. Digitalisation Digital transformation is a crucial enabler of our decarbonisation strategy, and we have embarked on a comprehensive fleet digitalisation program to harness emerging technologies and data analytics to drive efficiencies and minimise our environmental footprint. Through this program, we will equip all our vessels with the technology required to optimise efficiency and sustainability, to provide further transparency for our clients and to enhance the welfare of our crews. As a preliminary step towards digitalisation and as a key enabler for operational improvements, we undertook a substantial upgrade of our Daily Vessel Reports (“DVR”) in late 2022. These reports, completed by the vessel staff on a daily basis to record operational vessel data, have undergone a comprehensive review. The enhanced DVR now incorporates a detailed breakdown of activities, engine and fuel usage, cargo information, crew and passenger details, HSE KPIs and other metrics. By incorporating automations, we have ensured the data is readily available onshore for further analysis and sharing with our clients. A range of reports and dashboards have been developed to facilitate analysis, particularly in support of our operational improvement efforts. 22 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 23 MMA has digitised its daily vessel reports, and increased the parameters reported by 300% - this valuable data can be used to track energy efficiency initiatives. Operational Improvements Our digitalisation program will include the installation of advanced sensors and monitoring systems, enabling real-time data on fuel consumption, emissions and operations performance. This data will be integrated into data analytics platforms to facilitate continuous monitoring, analysis and informed decision-making. The acquisition and accessibility of fuel consumption patterns allows us to establish baselines from which operational improvements can be identified and efficiency gains implemented. Detailed data on fuel consumption, engine load and trim relative to the vessel’s operating profile will allow us to optimise the engine configurations used, determine the optimal trim and speed and maximise fuel economy in different operating modes. We will then outline and implement best practices for vessel operations, emphasising fuel- efficient navigation, maintenance and onboard practices. This approach will yield substantial fuel savings. As a pilot trial, MMA has successfully installed a digitised fuel monitoring system onboard one of our OSVs, the Mermaid Cove. We collaborated closely with a Singapore-based technology partner, Brightree, who specialise in providing accurate real-time measurement and monitoring of fuel consumption, as well as real-time asset tracking. This system allows detailed and accurate monitoring of fuel consumption for each engine across the vessel’s various operating modes, with instant remote access to the data and associated reporting dashboards. We will also be exploring the integration of voyage planning technology, which considers factors such as tides or weather, to further enhance fuel efficiency. Another critical aspect of optimising the fuel efficiency of our vessels is hull condition. A hull covered in marine growth will have a significantly higher drag coefficient, resulting in loss of speed or increased fuel consumption to maintain the same speed. We are therefore rolling out hull initiatives to our fleet, including the application of top- grade anti-fouling treatments, which offer a reduced/slower rate of fouling, and are looking to carry out mid-docking cycle hull and blade cleans. Team Engagement Campaigns We firmly believe that engaging our vessel team members is vital to achieving our sustainability goals. To foster engagement and a culture of environmental stewardship and energy-conscious decision-making among our marine staff, we are conducting annual engagement campaigns. These campaigns serve as a platform for sharing our initiatives and findings with the crew, while simultaneously gathering their feedback and ideas. We will also establish regular communication channels to share updates, success stories and challenges related to decarbonisation, as well as implement an incentive program to encourage and reward innovative ideas and initiatives. New Technologies MMA’s Decarbonisation Working Group is closely monitoring the advancements in applicable technologies including alternative fuels, hull cleaning technology and battery technologies. We actively participate in relevant forums to ensure we remain up to date with the latest relevant technological advances. In order to assess the viability of promising technologies, we are conducting desktop studies which will be followed by onboard trials where feasible. The objective is to identify effective technologies that can be implemented to reduce our carbon footprint. MMA has dedicated extensive efforts to researching the potential benefits of Energy Storage System (“ESS”) battery technology onboard our vessels. However, based on our operational profiles and the current available technology, the associated benefits have not yet justified its adoption as a practical option. Nonetheless, we will periodically reassess the value of implementing this technology onboard our vessels. When renewing our fleet, the incorporation of alternative fuel technology will be a key driver in our investment decisions, to support our drive to reduce our fleet’s carbon footprint. Significant research and trials have been conducted in recent years, in particular by the major marine engine manufacturers, around adapting engine technology to the use of alternative fuels such as methanol, ammonia and hydrogen. However, at this stage there are still no readily available engines which can run on one of these alternative fuels, nor regional availability of the fuels. Until a specific alternative fuel reaches a sufficient level of technological maturity and is determined to be the optimal alternative fuel for our type of marine operations, with secure availability, MMA is not in a position to utilise alternative fuels in our current fleet. This consideration will however be pivotal for any future newbuild vessel. In the meantime, we are however exploring the utilisation of biofuels as a temporary drop-in fuel, once their availability reaches a point where it becomes a viable option. MMA remains steadfast in our commitment to decarbonisation and sustainability. Over the past year, significant progress has been achieved through our decarbonisation strategy and we will continue to leverage technology, innovation and collaboration to reduce our carbon footprint while upholding the highest standards of safety, efficiency and reliability in our operations. Scope 1 emissions reduced consistent with the higher utilisation of our vessels, with Scope 1 reflecting the fuel usage when vessels are not under charter. Scope 2 emissions reduced due to the divestment of our Batam Supply Base as well as a number of leased facilities being shut down or subleased. Scope 3 emissions increased reflecting the higher percentage of days our vessels were on charter. Total emissions per available vessel day increased due to the higher vessel utilisation which increased from 73% in FY2022 to 80% in FY2023, whilst total emissions per utilised vessel day decreased slightly from the prior year. Emissions intensity is highly dependent on the nature and location of the work, the distances required to be travelled and the modes of operation while the vessel is working, limiting the insights to be gained from a simple emissions intensity ratio. During FY2023, vessels operated between the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia. The work being carried out by our decarbonisation team will provide greater insights into our emissions intensity at various modes of operation and enable us to work with our clients (who generally direct our operations) to optimise fuel burn and ultimately reduce our overall emissions. FY2023 Emissions MMA has calculated its emissions for its global operations for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 with its Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions outlined below. Scope 1 reflects MMA’s direct fuel use and associated emissions while our vessels are off-hire and fuel is under MMA’s operational control. Typically, once MMA’s vessels have been contracted, fuel comes under the client’s operational control and emissions are classified as Scope 3. Vessels used in our subsea survey operations are classified as either Scope 1 or Scope 3 based on the scope of work and operational control test. Vessel emissions are calculated based on the fuel used as recorded on the Daily Vessel Reports with the appropriate emissions factor applied. The other key emissions sources are electricity, oil and gas used to power our premises and emissions related to travel. These are calculated using the source data provided from suppliers with appropriate regional emissions factors applied. Fuel burn and total emissions are correlated with vessel utilisation, with fuel use considerably higher when vessels are working. To facilitate a comparison over time, we have used “available vessel days” as a normalisation factor to calculate emissions intensity for MMA’s owned fleet as the fleet size and utilisation fluctuates. MMA’s overall emissions for FY2023 decreased by 10% in comparison to FY2022. The primary reason for the reduction in emissions was fewer owned and chartered vessels in the fleet in comparison to the prior year. Supporting the Energy Transition Offshore Wind MMA is focused on growing its revenue from sectors such as offshore wind, utilising our skills and assets to facilitate the global energy transition. During FY2023, we increased our share of revenue from offshore wind from 9% to 24% and remain focused on increasing this percentage over time. We had several vessels working the offshore wind market in Taiwan during the year including three of our larger vessels – the MMA Pride, MMA Prestige and MMA Pinnacle. Our subsea division was also active with a number of geophysical survey scopes conducted during the year. Pleasingly, we completed our first project in South Korea opening up a new market for MMA with significant development forecast over the coming years. Momentum is also building in the Australian offshore wind market. Following a change of government, Australia has committed to significantly increasing its renewable energy capacity by 2030 and has commenced the licencing process for six designated offshore wind zones around Australia. This has led to a swathe of potential Australian projects totalling up to 45GW in capacity being announced, reflecting the strong momentum in the industry. Whilst the Australian offshore wind industry is in its infancy, site feasibility studies will require significant seabed mapping and geotechnical survey work which MMA is ideally positioned to provide. We will continue to focus on growing this part of our business with the longer- term aim of continuing to increase our revenue from supporting clean energy developments.

In FY2023, we continued our pioneering work in ecosystem engineering with projects in Tasmania, the North Sea and Western Australia whilst supporting research with leading institutes. Enhancing Offshore Wind During FY2023, MMA collaborated with DEME Group to deploy a prototype reef off the Belgian coast, exploring the benefits of incorporating engineered reef substrates into the North Sea’s wind parks. The massive scale of these offshore wind parks presents a unique opportunity for operators to create multifunctional ecosystems that benefit multiple users and the environments within which they coexist. Contributing to Coastal Resilience Fringing reefs act as natural barriers, reducing the energy of incoming waves before they reach the shore. Engineered fringing reefs can be designed to enhance this wave attenuation effect. By absorbing and dissipating wave energy, they help protect the shoreline from erosion and minimise the impact of storm surges. MMA is making an important contribution to improving coastal resilience through our long-term collaboration with the University of Western Australia (“UWA”), which has resulted in a multi-year research program into working with nature solutions for coastal erosion control. With co-funding from MMA and the Australian Research Council, UWA researchers have made a number of advances in the design of fringing reefs, mimicking natural reefs which attenuate wave energy. Researchers have been investigating the benefits of the coral canopy, seagrass and dune restoration in combination with engineered fringing reefs to establish resilient shorelines for our coastal communities. Building on our 2022 installation of a wave attenuating reef off C.Y. O’Connor Beach situated along the coastline of Perth, Western Australia, the Australian Government’s Coastal and Estuarine Risk Mitigation Program is co-funding the second stage of the reef development with the City of Cockburn. Early engineering and project planning is currently underway with installation planned for later in 2023. The C.Y. O’Connor project will be monitored over a three-year period by UWA to gauge the success of coastal erosion mitigation, serving as a valuable example for national and international government and commercial organisations. We see MMA’s attenuating reef designs as a potential scalable solution to combat the erosion of our coastlines globally as a result of rising sea levels and more frequent extreme weather events as a result of climate change. Enhancing Australian Fisheries Artificial Reef Installations, Tasmania During FY2023, MMA installed two new artificial reefs in Tasmania – one off Bruny Island and the other at Turners Beach on the north coast. The reefs, the first of their kind in Tasmania, consisted of a total of 318 reef modules across a total area of eight hectares of seabed. Over time we expect the reef to be colonised with marine organisms similar to the surrounding rock reef habitats, as well as the establishment of a new resident fish population including species such as snapper, morwong and yellowtail kingfish. We see MMA’s attenuating reef designs as a potential scalable solution to combat the erosion of our coastlines globally. King Reef, Exmouth Recently commissioned underwater photography of the King Reef site in Exmouth showed a plethora of coral and fish species have inhabited the reef in the five years since the reef was installed. King Reef was designed and installed by MMA as an innovative ‘rigs to reef’ concept using decommissioned oil and gas infrastructure to create a significant new marine habitat. The resounding success of this project should provide further opportunities for MMA to partner with the oil and gas industry on future projects to sustainably decommission infrastructure for the benefit of our oceans and communities. Tourism & Marine Habitat Creation The Wonder Reef on Australia’s Gold Coast has been installed for just over 12 months and is exceeding expectations as both a dive attraction and ecosystem. Some of the new marine species on the reef include large Queensland groupers that have made the site their home. Divers during the whale migration season have also been treated to a unique soundtrack of whale song as they explore the reef. Social Employee Health & Safety At MMA, we protect and prioritise the health, safety and wellbeing of our people. This commitment is at the heart of our Target 365 philosophy to achieve “a Perfect Day, Every Day,” and serves as the guiding principle that shapes our operations, practices and policies. In FY2023, MMA’s Total Recordable Case Frequency (“TRCF”) was 0.26, a slight improvement on the previous year. We recorded one medical treatment case which occurred during routine subsea back deck operations. When compared to our industry peers and the industries in which we operate, our TRCF demonstrates world- class performance and is evidence that our safety culture is thoroughly embedded in all areas of our operations. In line with MMA’s Target 365 program, an internal measure utilised as an assessment of our safety performance is our number of ‘Perfect Days’ achieved. ‘Perfect Days’ are the key metric of our Target 365 program, with a perfect day being a day free of recordable injuries or material incidents. In FY2023, we achieved 347 (95%) perfect days – a slight improvement on the previous year. Total Recordable Case Frequency (Per Million Manhours) 1.13 0.54 0.28 0.26 20 21 22 23 MMA TRCF IMCA Average However, MMA recognises that such measures are lagging indicators of performance and as such, a considerable focus is placed on our leading indicators, HSEQ programs and initiatives and ongoing leadership engagements. During FY2023, the following initiatives and improvements were delivered and continue to positively contribute to maintaining our strong safety focus and performance. Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program Refresh MMA’s Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program has been developed to promote and facilitate active engagements by MMA’s leadership group with the broader MMA workforce. This program ensures transparent accountability throughout the peer group and fosters a culture of responsibility and oversight, from the Managing Director downwards. Engagement targets are agreed by all, engagement tasks and activities are visible to all within the program and performance against those targets is visibly managed. The conduct of active leadership engagements has positively contributed to MMA’s safety performance whilst also supporting MMA as an employer of choice and one that is recognised for its investment in the development and recognition of its employees. During FY2023, MMA’s Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program was also announced as a joint winner of the International Marine Contractors Association (“IMCA”) Safety Awards. 26 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 27 MMA is dedicated to enhancing not only our internal health and safety processes but also those throughout the industry. Target 365 Rewards & Recognition Program This newly introduced program has been developed to recognise individuals whose safety behaviours model those of our Target 365 culture. The program provides our employees with a platform in which to recognise both themselves and their peers for Target 365 aligned safety behaviours, positive safety contributions and initiatives which improve the overall safety of our operations. Reward recipients receive a monetary reward for themselves and donate an equal amount to a registered charity of their choice which positively reinforces MMA’s commitment to supporting the communities in which we operate. Reward recipients are also recognised via the HSEQ Newsletter, MMA Intranet, digital communications channels and via a presentation within their workgroups. HSEQ Communication Enhancements The development of comprehensive monthly HSEQ reports has provided the operational management group with current and valuable HSEQ information enabling them to rapidly respond to and address any potential concerns or issues, as well as allowing for real time recognition of positive performance. In addition to the enhanced monthly HSEQ reports, the HSEQ team have implemented a quarterly HSEQ Bulletin, providing a platform to communicate HSEQ initiatives, successes, Target 365 Reward recipients as well as a general summary of HSEQ performance. Operational groups are encouraged to contribute to the bulletin which has been well-received. HSEQ & Operational Partnerships Contribution to the Industry Continuous Improvement Employee Wellbeing Collaborative working relationships are crucial to delivering sustainable results, and this is recognised by MMA through the increased focus on developing valuable partnerships between the MMA HSEQ team and the operational management groups. MMA is cognisant that success is only achieved when everyone is committed to the same goal, working collaboratively and supporting each other. This is the model that MMA has adopted in relation to the working arrangements between our HSEQ team and that of their operational counterparts. Working alongside the operational group, the HSEQ team provide valuable assistance day-to-day in increasing our safety standards, solving challenges using a risk-based approach and continuing to drive our Target 365 ethos. Incident Investigation Program Review A new incident investigation methodology has been introduced known as Incident Cause Analysis Method (“ICAM”). ICAM is a holistic safety investigation analysis method which allows MMA to identify both local failures that contributed to an incident whilst not ignoring potential failures in the broader operations that need to be assessed and remedial actions developed. ICAM training has been provided to key MMA stakeholders and the process embedded in MMA’s Integrated Business Management System. MMA is dedicated to enhancing not only our internal health and safety processes but also those throughout the industry. We actively participate as a member of various industry organisations that strive to foster a robust safety culture. As part of these industry organisations, operational safety improvements in which MMA plays an active role include: • DP Working Group (Safer Together) – MMA’s Executive General Manager Vessel Services sits on this committee which is focused on facilitating the sharing of lessons learnt, collaboration amongst industry experts and recommendations for changes to industry guidance and standards; • Safe Decks Group (Safer Together) • – development of a refresher training package for all offshore crew involved in the loading, carrying and discharge of cargo to offshore facilities in Australia; and IMCA HSSE Core Committee – MMA’s Executive General Manager Risk sits on this committee which is focused on delivering a number of initiatives and improvements including safety promotional campaigns based on industry trends, gap analysis on safety parameters between the traditional oil and gas market versus renewables markets and developing guidance on crew mental health. In addition to identified health and safety initiatives and focus areas, MMA continues to drive improvements through the continual improvement of our HSEQ systems and processes. Highlights for the year included: • • ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 certification renewal across MMA’s global operations; Improvement of navigational safety via the fleetwide implementation of Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (“ECDIS”); • A Subsea Safety Conference which provided the opportunity for the HSEQ team to work with subsea operational personnel on safety initiatives and provide greater awareness on our systems and processes; • Increased focus on mental health including the introduction of “Mental Health First Aid” training provided; • Engagement of an internal Health and Wellbeing Coordinator, increasing our ability to generate and promote health and wellbeing campaigns and effectively manage any workplace injuries or illnesses; • • Integration of MMA’s Purpose and Principles into the core of all HSEQ engagements with the MMA workforce; and Joint winner of the 2022 IMCA Safety Awards for MMA’s Target 365 Leadership Engagement Program. Our objective at MMA is to cultivate a diverse, engaging and high-performance workplace that prioritises the wellbeing of our employees, enabling them to achieve their full potential. We are committed to establishing a healthy, safe and inclusive work environment, free from any form of harassment or bullying, that values the input of every employee, fostering a deep sense of belonging and ensuring fair, respectful and dignified treatment for all. Our aim is to cultivate a workplace culture where individuals feel not only encouraged but also safe to speak up and share their thoughts, ideas and concerns. MMA continues to promote employee wellbeing across the business through a range of measures, including: • A culture of transparent communication including regular Managing Director town hall meetings and Q&A sessions, employee-led lunch and learn presentations and a range of regularly updated internal communications channels; • A calendar of regular employee engagement events providing opportunities for fostering professional networking, social connections and a sense of belonging, including conferences, community volunteering and social activities; • Flexible working arrangements to facilitate personal and family commitments, including a Working from Home policy for office-based staff; • Generous parental support and flexibility on return-to-work arrangements to facilitate ongoing participation; • A Mental Health Policy enabling staff to use personal leave for mental health reasons; • An employee assistance program which provides counselling and wellbeing resources to our staff globally 24/7; and • A Code of Conduct which outlines MMA’s Purpose, Principles and expected behaviours. Crew Engagement MMA recognises the importance of maintaining consistent and meaningful engagement with our offshore crew, who often face limited opportunities to connect with the broader organisation due to the nature of their work at sea. In line with our commitment to foster strong relationships and open lines of communication, we organised a crew conference in June 2023, held in Perth, Western Australia. This event brought together a key group of MMA’s vessel masters, chief engineers and ratings, creating an invaluable platform for them to actively participate in insightful discussions on a wide range of key topics. Facilitated by members of our senior and executive leadership teams, the conference not only served as an informative and collaborative forum, but was also a valuable face-to- face networking opportunity, allowing our crew members to connect and build relationships with their peers. By providing these in-person platforms for engagement, we are able to focus on the wellbeing of our vessel crew, ensuring that their voices are heard, valued and integrated into our organisation. 28 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 29 By prioritising the growth and advancement of our people, we ensure that MMA remains at the forefront of delivering exceptional marine solutions.

Industry Support MMA Offshore Hydrographic Surveying Scholarship MMA is proud to support the development of the next generation of hydrographic surveyors through the MMA Offshore Hydrographic Surveying Scholarship, established in conjunction with Curtin University, Western Australia. The scholarship, now in its second year, provides Bachelor of Surveying (Honours) students in their final year of study at Curtin University with a monetary contribution towards their educational related expenses as well as the potential for hands-on work experience, alongside MMA’s team of experienced surveyors. 30 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 The scholarship also provides students with the potential for employment with MMA post-graduation. With a shortage of skilled hydrographic surveyors in Australia, it is critical to foster the growth of Australia’s hydrographic surveying industry by offering students support, career pathways and real-world exposure to projects. Singapore Internships Over recent years, MMA has hosted interns from a number of Singapore- based universities including Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Polytechnic and Ngee Ann Polytechnic, and organisations such as the Singapore Maritime Foundation. Initially beginning with one intern in our Chartering department in 2019, the program has now expanded significantly with MMA having hosted 12 interns to date across a wide range of departments, including subsea, finance, procurement and crewing. Our teams are proud to nurture the next generation of maritime professionals and they willingly share their invaluable experience with the students. Furthermore, as part of our commitment to fostering talent within the maritime industry, MMA offers pathways for students towards future employment with the Company upon their graduation. This initiative not only benefits the students by providing promising career prospects, but also contributes to the continuous growth and sustainability of the maritime sector in Singapore. Career Events During FY2023, MMA participated in a number of industry events in order to promote careers in the maritime industry. Fremantle Maritime Day In October 2022, MMA took part in the annual Maritime Day industry event held in Fremantle, Western Australia. As a vibrant community festival that celebrates the maritime industry, this event offered MMA a valuable platform to connect with the local community and initiate meaningful conversations about marine career opportunities. By participating in this event, MMA demonstrated our commitment to fostering connections with stakeholders, promoting career prospects and building a strong presence within the communities in which we operate. Australian Maritime College Careers Expo Additionally, in March 2023, MMA participated in the annual Australian Maritime College Careers Expo held in Tasmania. This event served as an excellent opportunity to connect with graduates and aspiring professionals, providing valuable insights into the diverse range of marine career paths available within MMA. By targeting young marine professionals at events like these, MMA aims to inspire and guide the next generation towards rewarding careers in the maritime industry. Future Engineers Program During October 2022, MMA was proud to share an insight into ocean-based STEM careers through the Subsea Energy Australia Wise Future Engineers Program. 30 girls from schools across Perth joined our team on site to learn from MMA’s engineers and had the unique opportunity to cast five MMA artificial reef modules which will be donated to the popular local Coogee Maritime Trail – one of the world’s largest living harbour projects, created by MMA. Diversity & Inclusion With over 1,100 global employees with different experiences, backgrounds and perspectives, MMA takes pride in our strong commitment to diversity and inclusion. Recognising the importance of equality and inclusion in the workplace, MMA actively works towards creating an environment where all employees are empowered to thrive and succeed. In order to drive diversity and inclusion objectives at all levels across the Company, MMA has a well-established Diversity and Inclusion Committee. The Committee has a pivotal role in promoting and maintaining an inclusive environment across the organisation, through the establishment and monitoring of the Company’s strategic objectives. MMA also places great importance on ensuring fairness and equality in our remuneration practices, with regular reviews conducted to guarantee that every employee is compensated fairly, appropriately and without bias. Diversity Measurable Objectives Annually, MMA develops a set of Diversity Measurable Objectives, including targets for female participation in technical, senior management and executive management positions as well as on our Board of Directors. MMA’s percentage of women employed at an executive leadership level was 28.6% in FY2023, compared to 33.3% in FY2022. Additionally, MMA’s Board of Directors percentage has increased, with 40% female Board representation in FY2023, compared to 33.3% in FY2022. We are targeting 30% female representation at the senior management level by June 2025, from 17.4% currently. This will be achieved through a range of HR strategies encompassing recruitment, training and development and career path initiatives. MMA is also targeting increased female representation in technical positions to assist with developing the pipeline for senior management roles. As at the date of this report, MMA had 12% of technical positions represented by women as a result of proactive recruitment practices during the year.

A cornerstone of this effort is our formal Diversity and Inclusion Events Program, which has been in place since 2020. These events have proven to be instrumental in developing a deeper appreciation and understanding for diversity amongst our employees, and we continue to hold these activities in order to foster an inclusive culture across our business. During FY2023, MMA employees came together to recognise a range of events including a special ‘Diversity at MMA’ initiative focusing on diversity more broadly at MMA, Lunar New Year, International Women’s Day, Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr, International Day for Women in Maritime, National Reconciliation Week and NAIDOC Week. From December 2022 to January 2023, MMA’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee held an engagement campaign with our workforce aimed at recognising the broad spectrum of diversity across our business. This period of engagement included a photo competition where we asked our team members to share a photo submission which best represented the concepts of diversity, inclusion or belonging. Receiving submissions from MMA team members all over the world, the competition acted as a celebration of the individuals and teams across our business and highlighted the ways in which all levels of the organisation work towards fostering inclusivity. Lunar New Year In January 2023, our Perth and Singapore offices joined in the celebration of the Lunar New Year, marking the arrival of the Year of the Rabbit. As part of the festivities, our offices were adorned with customary decorations, and our teams respectively gathered to share a meal to commemorate the holiday. In celebration of International Women’s Day on 8 March 2023, MMA’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee held a dedicated event at MMA’s head office in Perth which was live-streamed and recorded to share with our global offices. The event featured a special presentation from guest speaker, MMA Non-Executive Director Sally Langer, who shared her perspectives on the 2023 theme “Embrace Equity”, as well as her career journey and experience on the boards of some of Western Australia’s top organisations. Additionally, MMA sponsored several employees to attend International Women’s Day functions, where our team heard from inspiring individuals across the Western Australian community. We believe in creating a positive and lasting impact that benefits both our organisation and the communities we support. Throughout March to April 2023, MMA’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee recognised the Muslim tradition of Ramadan. To foster a greater understanding of the challenges of fasting during Ramadan and the holiday as a whole, the Committee facilitated an informative video interview which featured an MMA team member who graciously shared their personal experiences and family traditions associated with Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr. This conversation was shared through the Company's internal communications channels, allowing the broader workforce to gain unique insights into the cultural significance of this observance. To celebrate Eid al-Fitr, celebratory lunches featuring traditional cuisines were held at our Perth and Singapore offices, with members of MMA’s Board of Directors and Executive Management Team in attendance. Our Singapore office staff wore festive dress for the event and a number of staff shared with colleagues their personal experiences of what Ramadan means to them. International Day for Women in Maritime On 18 May 2023, MMA celebrated the International Maritime Organization (“IMO”) event, the International Day for Women in Maritime. In celebration of the day, MMA collaborated with the Women’s International Shipping and Trading Association (“WISTA”) Australia to sponsor a networking and panel speaking event to bring together members of Perth’s broad maritime community. Additionally, two members of MMA’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee represented MMA by participating in the panel and moderating the event. Aligning with the 2023 theme ‘Mobilising networks for gender equality’, the event highlighted the importance of building strong networks and partnerships to drive meaningful progress. National Reconciliation Week From 27 May to 3 June 2023, MMA recognised National Reconciliation Week, taking the opportunity to support our workforce in learning more about the rich cultures, histories and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and to deepen our collective understandings. In support of the event, MMA participated in the 2023 Perth Street Banner Project which displayed sponsored banners in support of reconciliation in prominent locations across Western Australia. MMA’s Perth team also joined in on the 2023 Walk for Reconciliation through Kaarta Koomba (Kings Park), which provided our team with the opportunity to engage in a range of cultural immersion activities. NAIDOC Week During the period from Reconciliation Week in June 2023 to NAIDOC Week in July 2023, the Committee organised a charity raffle with prizes offering staff the opportunity to engage with Indigenous food, products and culture. All funds raised were provided to the Polly Farmer Foundation to support local Indigenous students' education. In addition, we coordinated a native food inspired morning tea facilitated by All Good Grub, a Perth-based, Indigenous-owned catering business. This provided a unique experience for our staff, with many team members able to try native ingredients for the first time. During the morning tea, we also premiered a short film documenting MMA’s partnership between the Undalup Association (the Wadandi Traditional Owner group for the South West region of Western Australia), the University of Western Australia and Australian Hydrographic Office which took place through a recent HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program (“HIPP”) project. To close out the week, we also hosted a cultural awareness training session facilitated by the Waalitj Foundation. This provided valuable learning opportunities for our staff, fostering their understanding of the traditions, challenges and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. By hosting this experience for our team, we were able to equip them with the knowledge and skills to positively contribute to the wellbeing of the communities in which we operate. 32 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 33 Seeds for Snapper Taking place in December 2022, MMA was proud to partner with OzFish, to sponsor their Seeds for Snapper project in Cockburn Sound in Western Australia. Seeds for Snapper is a community-driven seagrass restoration program by fishing conservation charity, OzFish. Seagrass meadows are an important nursery ground for countless fish and species of marine life, as well as help to stabilise the sand which protects coastlines from erosion. Seagrass fruits once per year and most seeds are washed ashore or far out to sea, where they cannot germinate. The Seeds for Snapper project aims to both harvest and spread seagrass seeds in areas where they are more likely to thrive. MMA staff participated in a volunteering day which saw our team diving to harvest seagrass seeds, sorting seeds and bagging them to be dispersed on the seabed. MMA was also proud to sponsor a community seeding event at MMA’s wave attenuating reef at C.Y. O’Connor Beach, with over 250,000 seeds dispersed by the local community. The seeds will regenerate the seagrass meadow encouraging a thriving marine habitat and further contributing to coastal erosion mitigation. MMA was proud to sponsor and help raise broader community awareness for this important environmental initiative. Community Support Christmas Food Donation Drives Blood Donations MMA is dedicated to supporting the communities in which we operate. During FY2023, MMA and its employees raised more than $31,800 and volunteered more than 100 hours for local charities, community groups and not-for-profit organisations around the world. Department of Fire and Emergency Services With bushfires regularly affecting our local Western Australian communities, MMA is proud to support employees in volunteering for the Government of Western Australia's Department of Fire and Emergency Services (“DFES”) through the provision of flexible working arrangements. In October 2022, MMA was nominated by one of our participating employees in the Volunteer Employer Recognition Awards (“VERA”), which acknowledges businesses that go above and beyond to enable their staff to respond to emergencies during work hours. MSWA Ocean Ride In November 2022, 20 MMA cyclists participated in the MSWA Ocean Ride in Perth, collectively cycling over 1,500km in support of Western Australians with neurological conditions. The event brought together multiple team members from across MMA, who proudly raised a total of $8,630 for MSWA, placing MMA in seventh place on the overall team fundraising leader board. Movember Throughout November 2022, MMA’s vessel crew on the MMA Vision came together to take part in Movember, with an aim to raise much-needed funds for men’s mental health. The crew rapidly surpassed their original goal of $1,000 and ultimately raised $2,080 for the cause. Now in our third year, our teams in Perth, Singapore and Aberdeen were proud to participate in our annual Christmas food donation drive, donating food and essential goods to local food bank charities. Our staff’s contributions supported those who may have otherwise gone without on Christmas Day, with donations provided to Foodbank Western Australia in Perth, the Humanitarian Organization for Migration Economics in Singapore and Community Food Initiatives North East (“CFINE”) in the UK. Target 365 Rewards During January 2023, MMA relaunched its Target 365 Safety Rewards Program whereby individuals who demonstrate exceptional safety performance are provided with the opportunity to donate monetary rewards to registered charities. In the final quarters of FY2023, seven Target 365 Safety Awards winners were selected and donated their Target 365 rewards to a range of global charities including the Fred Hollows Foundation, the Kidney Foundation of the Philippines and Camp Quality. Run for a Reason In May 2023, 24 of our Perth team members took part in the HBF Run for a Reason by running, jogging and walking for a good cause. Our team proudly raised over $5,000 for the Cancer Council Western Australia. Charity Morning Teas Throughout the year, MMA’s Perth office held several charity morning teas in order to raise donations for employee- nominated charitable organisations, with MMA matching all amounts raised. During FY2023, MMA and our staff supported a range of organisations such as the Starlight Children’s Foundation, the Royal Flying Doctor Service and the Royal Children’s Hospital Research Foundation. Members of MMA’s Perth team coordinate a regular group of blood, plasma and platelets donors, each who contribute critical, live-saving sources to the Australian Red Cross on a regular basis. During FY2023, MMA’s team made 26 donations, equating to a total of 78 lives saved. Indigenous Engagement MMA maintains a steadfast commitment to establishing and fostering relationships and partnerships with the Indigenous communities and Traditional Owners in our operational areas. We recognise the significance of these connections and strive to foster mutual understanding, respect and collaboration. Through our ongoing engagement, we aim to contribute positively to the wellbeing and prosperity of the communities in which we operate, and to honour and respect their connection to the land and waters. Indigenous Procurement MMA is a member of Supply Nation and endeavours to procure goods and services where possible from Indigenous enterprises. Indigenous Training Programs MMA continues to provide training opportunities to Indigenous trainees. Indigenous trainees are engaged on our modern PSV vessels operating out of Darwin and Broome, with candidates completing face-to-face training within the TAFE system. Trainees then go on to complete qualifying sea time, gaining critical work skills and experience over a period of 16 months. MMA is dedicated to supporting the communities in which we operate. 34 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 35 Governance MMA is committed to a high level of corporate governance and promoting a culture that values trust, co-operation and mutual respect. At MMA, we believe that high standards of corporate governance are paramount for sustainable long-term performance and value creation. MMA complies with the 4th Edition of the Australian Securities Exchange’s Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (4th Edition ASX Recommendations). Code of Conduct Further details of the Company’s Corporate Governance Policies, including the Anti- Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy are available on the Corporate Governance page of MMA’s website at: mmaoffshore. com/investor-centre/corporate-governance. Modern Slavery Whilst MMA does not operate in any of the ‘high risk’ modern slavery industries, MMA acknowledges that modern slavery is prevalent in a global economy and is committed to minimising the risk of modern slavery issues inadvertently being present in our supply chain. MMA’s Code of Conduct has undergone an update to incorporate MMA’s newly articulated Purpose, Principles and behaviours charter. MMA has a range policies and processes in place that mitigate the risks of slavery and human trafficking occurring within MMA’s operations and in its supply chain. MMA’s Code of Conduct sets the standards of behaviour that is expected of its directors, employees, officers and contractors who perform work for MMA and places a strong focus on working legally, ethically and safely. We encourage the reporting of unlawful and unethical behaviour, actively promote and monitor compliance with the Code of Conduct and protect those who report breaches in good faith. Under MMA’s Group Whistleblower Policy, whistleblowers are protected from any disadvantage, prejudice or victimisation for reporting any breaches of the Policy or the Corporations Act. Anti-Bribery & Anti-Corruption MMA has a zero-tolerance approach towards bribery and corrupt conduct. The Company has an Anti-Bribery and Anti- Corruption Policy for preventing the offering or acceptance of bribes and other unlawful or unethical payments or inducements and applies to all persons associated with MMA, including directors, employees, contractors, representatives and agents. Any breach of this policy will be regarded as serious misconduct. During FY2023, MMA had no known incidents of bribery or corruption. MMA monitors and reviews the effectiveness of these policies and procedures and how well these have been implemented across the business through both internal and external audit regimes. All of MMA’s offshore operations are carried out in accordance with the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (“MLC”) which provides minimum standards and regulations relating to employment, working and living conditions of seafarers. MMA has developed a strong supply chain and network of suppliers and subcontractors to support its operations and where possible will endeavour to source products and services from selected suppliers or contractors local to the area of operation. As part of the selection process, MMA conducts counter-party due diligence on prospective suppliers and contractors. MMA’s Standard Procurement Terms and Conditions also require contractors and suppliers to comply with modern slavery legislation. Where third-party terms and conditions are used, MMA will also endeavour to include similar provisions into its contracts. MMA’s 2023 Modern Slavery Statement can be reviewed on the Australian Government’s Modern Slavery Register at: modernslaveryregister.gov.au. Mapping together on Wadandi Sea Country Through the partnership with the Undalup Association and UWA, MMA was able to highlight not only the value that the HIPP brings in achieving the Australian Hydrographic Office’s obligations under the Navigational Safety Act, but the value that the data can bring to the regions in which they are undertaken. MMA was proud to demonstrate the importance of engaging local communities and collaboration with Traditional Owners. With a mutual desire to protect, manage and monitor the ecologically and culturally sensitive marine environment in which the project was to take place, a partnership was developed between MMA, the Wadandi-led project team and researchers from the University of Western Australia (“UWA”) to provide cultural guidance throughout the HIPP hydrographic survey. MMA shared relevant extracts of the captured imagery of the seabed to the Wadandi People in order to inform the broader community about the cultural value and significance of the Sea Country. MMA also worked with local filmmaker, Seabird Films, to produce a short film documenting the partnership which was premiered at the 2023 Australian Marine Sciences Association (“AMSA”) conference held in Queensland during NAIDOC Week in July 2023. During June 2022, MMA was contracted by the Australian Government Department of Defence through the HydroScheme Industry Partnership Program (“HIPP”) to undertake a hydrographic survey of the Cape Leeuwin area, located off the coast of Western Australia and covering an area of approximately 421 nautical square miles. Prior to the project beginning in December 2022, MMA collaborated with the Undalup Association and the Wadandi Traditional Custodian group in the South West of Western Australia. The Wadandi People (Saltwater People) are the Traditional Owners of this part of the South West. The significant coastal areas are important to the Wadandi people and their connection to land and sea through songs, stories, spirituality and cultural lore (learning and knowledge of tradition). 36 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 37 Risk MMA recognises that risk is an inherent part of its business. Effectively identifying and managing risk is critical to MMA’s success. MMA’s Integrated Business Management System ("IBMS") documents the risk management framework that MMA applies to ensure that a comprehensive approach to the identification, assessment and treatment of risk is taken. The risk framework is aligned to ISO 31000 (2018), the international standard for risk management. This section describes (in no order of significance) the material risks that have been identified and are being managed for the Company to deliver on its objectives. It is not intended to be all encompassing, nor is any of the information intended to be taken as a statement of fact. These risks can be affected by a variety of factors which can, in turn, impact the Company’s performance. Risks Relating to our Operations The Company’s operations are subject to various risks inherent in servicing the offshore energy and wider marine industry. Our international operations broaden our risk exposure in terms of both opportunities and threats. Operational risks include (but are not limited to): • Health and safety incidents; • Epidemics/pandemics; • Loss of key customers/contracts; • Failure by customers to pay for services; • Equipment damage, technical failures, or human error; • Industrial relations issues including strikes; • Capsizing, sinking, grounding, collisions, fires and explosions, piracy, vessel seizures or arrests and acts of terrorism; • Environmental pollution, contamination, and other related accidents; • Regulatory and legislative non- compliance; • Cyber security attacks; • Kidnap and ransom; • Fraud and theft; • Increases in input costs; Several other factors also affect the offshore energy industry, including economic growth, energy demand, the transition to renewable energy, the cost and availability of other energy sources (including onshore sources) and changes in energy technology and regulation. There can be no assurance around future levels of offshore activity. Any prolonged period of low offshore activity will have an adverse effect on MMA’s business. • Failure to attract and retain qualified personnel or loss of key personnel; and • Contractual assumptions of risk. The Company aims to mitigate the impact of lower offshore investment and lower offshore activity by: • Diversifying its service offering into a range of market sectors including oil and gas, offshore wind, government and defence and environmental services; • Expanding its service offering to include subsea and project logistics services; • Diversifying its contract portfolio across the exploration, construction and production phases and by providing maintenance/repair and decommissioning services; and • Diversifying its geographic footprint across several key regional areas. The Competitive Landscape Demand for MMA’s vessels and services is impacted by the number of available vessels in the market and the competitive landscape. Any misalignment between vessel supply and demand can adversely impact vessel utilisation, rates and contract terms, thereby impacting MMA’s earnings and profitability. MMA seeks to manage this risk by: • Having a clear strategic plan, including an ongoing review of its asset mix and capability to meet market demand; • Having a clear regional strategy to position the Company in the most advantageous areas to operate; • Providing an integrated marine and subsea service to clients; and • Expanding its service offering into the growing offshore wind sector. Potential consequences associated with these risks include the loss of human life or serious injury, pollution, environmental damage, significant damage to or loss of assets and equipment, business disruption, client dissatisfaction, loss of contracts, damage to our reputation and legal and regulatory action, including fines. This could expose MMA to significant liabilities, a loss of utilisation, revenue and/ or the incurrence of additional costs and therefore may have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and profitability. We employ a number of well executed controls to manage these risks, including, but not limited to, appropriate insurance coverage, hazard and risk management processes, crisis management processes, certified health safety and quality systems and audits, information and security management systems and mitigation strategies, planned maintenance programs, compliance programs, tender and contract management processes, access to in-house and external legal expertise, industrial relations strategies, emergency preparedness and contingency plans, preferred supplier and subcontractor processes, counterparty risk assessments and a host of engineering and operational controls. Dependence on the Level of Activity in the Offshore Energy Industry The Company is dependent on the level of activity and capital spending in the offshore energy industry including oil and gas and offshore wind. The level of activity may vary and be affected by, amongst other things, prevailing or predicted future energy prices, government policies and macro conditions. Access to Capital Cyber Security Maintaining, replacing and growing our vessel fleet subject to the Company’s prevailing strategy at the time may require significant capital investment which may require additional debt or equity funding. Our ability to raise debt and equity capital on acceptable terms in the future may be limited depending on market conditions which could impact our ability to fund future capital expenditure programs. To mitigate these risks MMA has a well- established investor relations program and strong relationships and track record within the equity capital markets. MMA will also have significant capacity under its new debt facility which is being extended through to August 2027. An additional risk mitigation strategy is the deliberate diversification of revenue away from the hydrocarbon industry. As MMA continues to increase its percentage of revenue from sectors such as renewables, government and defence and environmental services, access to capital markets increases from both debt and equity sources as MMA plays a part in the global energy transition. Foreign Exchange The majority of MMA’s revenues are paid in either Australian or US Dollars and the Company’s operating costs are primarily denominated in a combination of Australian, Singaporean and US Dollars, providing a natural hedge for our activities. MMA also has a combination of Australian Dollar and US Dollar debt. Adverse movements in these currencies may result in a negative impact on MMA’s earnings. MMA’s treasury policy and contract management processes further mitigate this risk. The Board also considers from time to time whether to manage currency fluctuation risk through appropriate hedging. MMA utilises sophisticated technology to deliver high quality services in conjunction with interfaces with third party information technology systems. Instances of cyber-attacks has the potential to cause disruption and/or financial and reputational damage to the Company. MMA has implemented a comprehensive Information and Security Management System to proactively identify, monitor and mitigate information security vulnerabilities, threats and risks in order to protect MMA, its employees, customers, assets and data. The Company cyber response is governed by an Information and Communications Technology ("ICT") Steering Committee which compromises ICT experts, access to external expertise and Executive Management representatives. Climate Change & ESG Climate change and ESG issues are becoming increasingly important to capital providers, customers and other stakeholder groups. The energy transition is impacting MMA’s traditional oil and gas customers as the world moves towards renewable energy sources. The transition to an alternate marine fuel technology, which is still under investigation, will also affect MMA’s fleet when the technology is developed and marine assets transition to lower emissions fuel sources. MMA views climate change and the energy transition as both a risk and an opportunity. MMA has diversified its service offering into the rapidly growing offshore wind market in order to support the energy transition and this remains a key focus going forward. MMA is committed to operating its business in a sustainable manner and has a comprehensive ESG strategy led by a member of the Executive Leadership team, with regular reporting to the Board of Directors. Geopolitical, Government & Regulatory Risk Factors Our international operations are subject to challenging geopolitical risks in varying degrees. Changes in the geopolitical climate in our market areas, such as the outbreak or resolution of war, nationalisation of a customer’s projects and changes to industry related legislation, protectionist measures, economic sanctions and border closures or restrictions may open up more advantageous areas to operate or could require us to discontinue operating in that area, leading to corresponding impacts on vessel and service utilisation. As MMA’s operations have expanded into the offshore wind sector in Taiwan, we continue to monitor the geopolitical situation there and official advice issued by governments and marine risk insurers (including the Joint War Committee). MMA may face restrictions on its ability to win work in certain countries due to changing cabotage regulations or government controls and may be required to form joint ventures in some countries in order to access the local offshore energy markets. Joint ventures may introduce a higher level of operational, financial and counterparty risk. The prevalence of bribery and/or corruption in some foreign jurisdictions also limits MMA’s ability to operate in these areas. MMA’s strategic plan considers such risks and operationally we risk assess market areas and clients regularly to limit negative and optimise positive impacts. A comprehensive Anti-Bribery and Anti- Corruption Policy, Code of Conduct and Group Whistleblower Policy have been implemented and are continually monitored to assist in combatting these risks. Risks Relating to our Indebtedness Any material reduction in profitability may increase the risk of the Company failing to comply with the covenants associated with its Banking Facilities. MMA seeks to manage these risks through proactively engaging with its lenders and the wider debt markets as well as actively monitoring earnings and cash flows to forecast covenant compliance. 38 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 39 Board of Directors Mr Ian Alexander Macliver Chairman – Appointed 28 January 2021 Ian was appointed as a Director of the Company on 20 January 2020 and as Chairman of the Company on 28 January 2021.

The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 5.5 to the Financial Statements do not compromise the external auditor’s independence, based on advice received from the Audit and Risk Committee, for the following reasons: Executive Director Mr D Ross (Managing Director/CEO) Non-Executive Directors Mr I Macliver (Chairman) Mr C G Heng Ms S Murphy Ms S Langer Executive Key Management Personnel Mr D Cavanagh (Chief Financial Officer) Mr T Muirhead (Executive General Manager Legal/Company Secretary) • All non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor; and Mr Peter Kennan resigned as a Non-Executive Director of the Company on 19 April 2023. • None of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 ‘Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants’ issued by the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as an advocate for the Company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

Remuneration Report (audited) This Remuneration Report, which forms part of the Directors’ Report, sets out information about the remuneration of the Company’s key management personnel for the financial year ended 30 June 2023. Remuneration Policy The Nomination and Remuneration Committee is delegated responsibility by the Board for reviewing the remuneration packages of all Directors and key management personnel on an annual basis and making recommendations to the Board in this regard. The specific responsibilities of the Committee are set out in the Committee’s Charter, which can be found on the Corporate Governance page of our website at www.mmaoffshore.com/investor-centre/corporate-governance. The Company seeks to structure its remuneration to ensure it is market competitive and can attract, retain, and reward key personnel for delivering on the Company’s strategy and creating value for shareholders. Remuneration packages are reviewed annually having regard to employment market conditions and comparable industry salaries. The performance of the Company and specific experience and performance of the individual personnel are also considered. From time to time the Committee engages independent remuneration consultants to provide recommendations in relation to remuneration of Non-Executive Directors and senior management. Whilst no remuneration recommendations were received for the 2023 financial year, the Committee determined it would engage remuneration consultants for the 2024 financial year, the outcome of which will be reported in the 2024 Annual Report. Having regard to the overall performance of the Company and the current market conditions, the key remuneration outcomes for the Company’s Non-Executive Directors and key management personnel in the 2023 financial year are set out below. The Company’s Remuneration Report for the 2022 financial year was adopted at the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting (held on 9 November 2022) with a clear majority of 193,829,493 votes in favour of the motion (representing 94.14% of the votes received). Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors The Company’s key management personnel are those persons who have authority and responsibility for planning, directing, and controlling the activities of the consolidated entity, either directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the consolidated entity. The prescribed details for each person covered by this Remuneration Report are detailed below under the following headings: • Key Management Personnel; • Remuneration Policy; • Relationship between the Remuneration Policy and Company Performance; • Remuneration of Key Management Personnel; and • Key Terms of Employment Contracts. The maximum aggregate fee pool for Non-Executive Directors (which is subject to shareholder approval) is currently set at $950,000 per annum (as approved by shareholders at the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 22 November 2012). Non-Executive Directors’ fees (inclusive of superannuation) are included within this aggregate fee pool. Non-Executive Directors are paid fixed fees set at levels which reflect both the responsibilities of, and time commitments required from each Non-Executive Director to discharge their duties. Non-Executive Directors’ fees are reviewed annually by the Board to ensure they are appropriate for the duties performed, including Board committee duties, and are in line with the market. In order to preserve their independence, Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance-based remuneration. Other than statutory superannuation, Directors are not entitled to retirement allowances. During the reporting period the Non-Executive Directors’ schedule of fees was reviewed to standardise fees paid for duties on the Board and Committees. This resulted in minor adjustments to the fees of the existing Non-Executive Directors (which are outlined in the table titled “Key Management Personnel Remuneration” set out in this report). During the financial year the Board implemented the following Non-Executive Directors’ Fee policy for the financial year (inclusive of superannuation): Position Board Chair Fee Board Director Fee Committee Chair Fee Annual Fee $80,000 $80,500 $9,850 Committee Member Fee $9,850 (per Committee) Director of MMA Offshore Asia Pte Ltd and its subsidiaries (on account of additional responsibilities and time commitments involved in relation to this position). This fee is currently paid to Mr Heng. $9,850 50 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 51 Remuneration of Managing Director and Executive Key Management Personnel No. Remuneration Component Details The remuneration of the Managing Director and executive key management personnel has three components, being, a Fixed Annual Remuneration (FAR), Short-Term Incentive (STIP) and Long-Term Incentive (LTIP). Details of these components are set out below: 3. Long-term Incentive Plans (LTIP) No. Remuneration Component Details 1. Fixed Annual Remuneration (FAR) • The FAR comprises of base salary and superannuation. • In setting the FAR, consideration is given to current market rates and industry benchmarking against appropriate comparator groups (including the median market rates within the sector and industry peers), current market conditions, Company performance and individual performance. • For the 2023 financial year the Managing Director and other executive key management personnel received a 4% increase in their FAR having regard to market conditions and inflation (with CPI rising 6.1% over the 12 months to June 2022 (ABS Release 27/07/22)). 2. Short-term Incentive (STIP) • The STIP is an “at-risk” component of remuneration designed to reward management for achieving financial and safety targets over a 12-month period. • The targets are set by the Board to align management’s interests with those of the shareholders, with the intention of increasing shareholder value. • The invitation to participate in the STIP is at the absolute discretion of the Board and is subject to such conditions which the Board may prescribe from time to time. FY2023 STIP • The Board issued an FY2023 STIP to the Managing Director, executive key management personnel and other senior managers for the 2023 financial year. The FY2023 STIP was payable either in cash or shares at the absolute discretion of the Board (subject to targets being achieved). • At the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting the Company’s Shareholders approved (by a clear majority) the issue of up to 647,751 FY2023 STIP Performance Rights to the Managing Director (subject to the targets being achieved and the Board exercising its discretion to issue the FY2023 STIP in shares). As disclosed in the Explanatory Memorandum to the Notice of Meeting, the Company prescribed a value of $0.578 for each FY2023 STIP performance right – being the 30-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares up to the commencement of the performance period for the FY2023 STIP (being 1 July 2022). • The performance criteria for the FY2023 STIP related to: – Group EBIT Targets (80% weighting) - set ensure that the remuneration of key management personnel is directly linked to the achievement of positive financial returns for the business; and – Group Safety Targets (20% weighting) - set to ensure that key management personnel continue to prioritise safety in all aspects of the Company’s operations and business. • Pleasingly the Group Safety Targets were achieved and further, given the Company’s solid performance for the 2023 financial year, the Group EBIT targets were exceeded. As a result the executive key management personnel achieved the maximum FY2023 STIP entitlement. • Having exercised its discretion, the Board has decided that for the Managing Director and executive key management personnel the FY2023 STIP would take the form of performance rights (which are not yet issued) which will convert into an ordinary, fully paid shares in the Company upon completion of an additional 12-months of service by the participant (i.e. they will vest on 1 July 2024). The Board considered that the deferred vesting of these performance rights provides the Company with an additional retention benefit with respect to the key management personnel. 3. Long-term Incentive Plans (LTIP) • The LTIP is an “at-risk” component of remuneration designed to reward performance against the achievement of key performance targets over a three-year period. • The LTIP also aims to retain and suitably incentivise executives, as well as aligning their long-term interests with those of shareholders. • Under the LTIP the Company grants performance rights, which (subject to achievement of the specified performance targets set by the Board) vest and convert into ordinary, fully paid shares in the Company. FY2023 LTIP Performance Rights • The Board issued an FY2023 LTIP for the Managing Director and key management personnel for the 2023 financial year. • At the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting the Company’s Shareholders approved (by a clear majority) the issue of up to 1,170,246 FY2023 LTIP Performance Rights to the Managing Director (subject to the targets being achieved). • The FY2023 LTIP Performance Rights have a 3-year performance period (beginning on 1 July 2022 and ending on 30 June 2025). • Each performance right converts to an ordinary, fully paid share in the Company upon vesting. • As disclosed in the Explanatory Memorandum to the Notice of Meeting, the Company prescribed a value of $0.58 for each FY2023 LTIP performance right contingent upon retention and a value of $0.354 for each FY2023 LTIP performance right contingent upon the share price hurdle. This is the fair value of the performance rights at the beginning of the FY2023 LTIP performance period (1 July 2022) as calculated by an independent valuation firm. • For the Managing Director and other key management personnel, the FY2023 LTIP Performance Rights performance criteria are set out in the table below: LTIP Performance Criteria (Percentage of LTIP Subject to Performance Criteria) Share Price Target (87%) Performance Criteria Targets 0% vesting if Company’s share price is less than $0.75 at the end of the LTIP Performance Period. 60% vesting if Company’s share price is equal to $0.75 at the end of the LTIP Performance Period. Pro-rata vesting (on a straight-line basis) if Company’s share price is greater than $0.75 but less than $1.05 at the end of the LTIP Performance Period. 100% vesting if Company’s share price is $1.05 or greater at the end of the LTIP Performance Period. Retention Criteria (13%) 100% vesting if the employee remains employed by the Company (or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) on 30 June 2025 Managing Director Retention Incentive • The retention of key personnel has become a significant issue facing the Company. This is largely due to the extremely competitive employment market conditions being experienced in both Australia and internationally. Within Western Australia, the Company competes for personnel against the mining industry which continues to attract professionals away from other sectors with lucrative remuneration and retention packages. The Company was directly impacted by this during the 2022 financial year losing two of its executive leadership team to the mining sector. • In order to mitigate against the disruption that can result from key personnel turnover, the Board felt it appropriate to introduce a retention incentive package for the Managing Director in order to incentivise the Managing Director to remain with the Company and further deliver on the Company’s strategy. • At the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting the Company’s Shareholders approved (by a clear majority) the issue of up to 628,188 Retention Incentive Performance Rights to the Managing Director (subject to the retention condition being met and the Board exercising its discretion to issue the retention incentive in shares). As disclosed in the Explanatory Memorandum to the Notice of Meeting, the Company prescribed a value of $0.596 for each retention performance right – being the 30-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares up to the date the Board resolved to issue the retention performance rights to Mr Ross. • As the Shareholders have approved the issue of performance rights, the retention incentive is payable either in cash or performance rights (up to a maximum of 628,188) at the Board's discretion if the Managing Director remains employed by the Company (or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) on 31 December 2023. • Each performance right converts into an ordinary, fully paid share in the Company upon vesting. 52 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 53 Allocation of Executive Remuneration between Fixed and Variable Remuneration Remuneration of Key Management Personnel The allocation of total executive remuneration between fixed and variable remuneration for the 2023 financial year was as follows: Managing Director Other Key Management Personnel 44% 16% 40% 29% 16% 55% In this Annual Report remuneration outcomes are presented based on the requirements of accounting standards (which has the benefit of being readily comparable with other companies) rather than the actual “take-home” pay received by key management personnel (being cash, other benefits and the value of equity vesting during the relevant financial year). An example of this includes LTIP awards which are recognised and accounted for over the performance period (three years) based on their assessed value when originally granted to the executive. This may be significantly different to their value, if and when the incentive vests to that executive. The following tables disclose: (A) (B) The actual remuneration of the Directors and other key management personnel of the Company for the 2023 financial year (i.e. the actual “take-home” pay received by key management personnel for the 2023 financial year); and The statutory presentation of the remuneration of the Directors and other key management personnel of the Company for the 2023 financial year and for the previous financial year based on the requirements of accounting standards.

General Notes MMA Offshore Limited (MMA or the Company) is a for profit, listed public company incorporated in Australia. Its shares are traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. The Group comprises of MMA and its subsidiaries. 2. Financial Performance 2.1 Segment Information 1.1 Basis of Preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. Historical cost is generally based on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted. Transactions in foreign currencies are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies at reporting date are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at that date. Exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise except for certain hedging transactions and translation of foreign operations as described in note 4.2. 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 this Corporations Instrument, amounts in the financial statements are rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Statement of Compliance These financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and comply with other requirements of the law. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Group comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Consequently, this financial report has been prepared in accordance with and complies with IFRS as issued by the IASB. 1.2 Going Concern The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 1.3 Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, the Directors are required to make judgements (other than those involving estimations) that have a significant impact on the amounts recognised and to make estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Key sources of estimation uncertainty The following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Estimation of expected credit losses – refer note 3.2 Impairment of non-current assets – refer note 3.6 Provisions – refer note 3.14 Tax losses – note 3.15 An operating segment is a component of a group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenue and incur expenses and whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM, Board of Directors) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. Information regarding the Group’s operating segments is presented below. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group’s accounting policies. Information reported to the Board of Directors is focused on the category of services provided through the Groups operating activities.

Financial Performance (continued) 2.2 Revenue from contracts with customers Disaggregation of revenue 2. Financial Performance (continued) 2.2 Revenue from contracts with customers (continued) Recognition and Measurement The Group derives its revenue from contracts with customers for the transfer of goods and services over time and at a point in time in the following major markets. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Recognised over time: Oil and Gas Renewables Government and Defence Other Recognised at a point in time: Fuel sales Total revenue Recognised over time: Oil and Gas Renewables Government and Defence Other Recognised at a point in time: Fuel sales Total revenue Vessels Services 2023 $’000 145,329 57,270 13 6,684 209,296 3,447 212,743 Vessels Services 2022 $’000 120,641 16,697 819 13,790 151,947 6,698 158,645 Subsea Services 2023 $’000 65,130 14,450 11,085 1,670 92,335 - 92,335 Subsea Services 2022 $’000 37,093 8,176 13,723 7,373 66,365 - 66,365 Project Logistics 2023 $’000 Consolidated 2023 $’000 Revenue from Vessel Services Revenue from vessel services is an integrated service representing a single performance obligation, except for fuel sales, through the provision of a fully operational vessel, including crew, to customers for their use. The services provided and recognition of revenue related to these services is: 1,964 212,423 • Vessel charter: Vessels are contracted on a rate per day. Revenue is recognised over the period of time based on the number of days - - 1,223 3,187 - 3,187 71,720 11,098 9,577 304,818 3,447 308,265 Project Logistics 2022 $’000 Consolidated 2022 $’000 the customer utilises the vessel. • Mobilisation: some contracts require a vessel to be modified and/or relocated to meet the requirements of the contract with the customer paying an additional lump sum amount. These are not a separate performance obligation and as such we defer the lump sum fee as a Contract Liability (note 3.11) and recognise the revenue on a straight line basis over the term of the contract. Costs associated with the mobilisations are deferred as Prepayments and amortised to Vessel Expenses over the same period as the revenue. • Fuel sales: Under some contracts, the customer will purchase the fuel on board the vessel at contract commencement. The revenue is recognised at the point in time of sale. Revenue from Subsea Services Revenue from subsea services is derived from providing a variety of services to companies operating in subsea environments including surveys, fabrication, inspection, maintenance and repair of facilities and equipment. The services provided in each contract are all integrated and represent single performance obligations. The services provided and recognition of revenue related to these services is: • Provision of equipment, personnel and materials: These are contracted on a set rate per day. Revenue is recognised over the period 51,863 209,597 of time based on the number of days the customer utilises the services provided. - - 2,155 54,018 4,738 58,756 24,873 14,542 23,318 272,330 11,436 283,766 • Lump sum contracts (Survey and Fabrication): Some contracts for these services are provided under lump sum contracts. Revenue is recognised over time based on a percentage of completion to reflect the progress on the contract. In estimating the percentage of completion, the costs incurred as a proportion of expected total costs are considered a reasonable basis for measuring progress through the contract and used to calculate the percentage of completion. Any lump sum invoices are initially capitalised and recognised as Contract Liabilities (note 3.11) with revenue then recognised based on the calculated percentage of completion. Revenue from Project Logistics Revenue from Project Logistics relates to project management of large marine spreads and complex marine logistics. Revenue is recognised on the same basis as Vessel Services. The disaggregation of revenue categories have been amended this reporting period to now reflect the major markets where the group is focussing its service offering. Each of the markets is subject to different economic factors and the shift in the global energy sector from fossil fuels to renewables represents an important distinction for the Group. In addition, the provision of services to Government and Defence departments is a growing part of the business. 78 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 79 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 2.

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year in certain jurisdictions. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. 2.6 Dividends Provided for or Paid No dividends have been provided for or paid during the current year.

This transaction settled during 2023 and the deposit applied as part of settlement. Refer to note 3.16 for further details. The credit period for customers is negotiated individually on a case by case basis. An allowance has been made for estimated irrecoverable trade receivable amounts arising from the past rendering of services. The Group writes off a trade receivable when there is information indicating that the debtor is in significant financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. The Group measures the allowance for expected credit losses for trade receivables at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses (“ECL”) using the simplified approach where 1. ECL’s are collectively estimated using a provision matrix based on the Group’s historical credit loss experience adjusted for factors that are specific to geographic region, general economic conditions and an assessment of current and forecast conditions at reporting date. This has resulted in ECL’s being applied to debtors aged over 60 days in our international business. 2. In cases where there is specific information available, the ECL assessment is adjusted for factors that are specific to the debtor including their financial capacity to make payment, discussions with the debtor on the status of the receivable and any other information relevant to the assessment of the recoverability. The ageing of trade receivables to which these measures were applied were: Trade receivables Current $’000 65,016 Over 30 days $’000 Over 60 days $’000 Over 90 days $’000 5,461 2,148 9,957 Total $’000 82,582 The following table shows the movement in lifetime ECL that has been recognised for trade receivables in accordance with the simplified approach set out in AASB 9: Balance as at 1 July 2022 Transfer to credit-impaired Amounts recovered Foreign exchange gains and losses Balance as at 30 June 2023 3.3 Inventories Fuel – at cost Consumables Work in progress Total Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value.

The cost includes amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, expected make good costs, and lease payments made at or before commencement date less any lease incentives received. 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. The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment assessed in accordance with the Group’s impairment policy, and any impairment loss is recognised in the income statement. The Group leases several assets including • Subsea and operating premises at Welshpool, Australia which expires 30 April 2025, with an option to extend two x five-year terms. • Current head office premises in Perth which expires 30 November 2026, with an option to extend for one x five years. • Vessel bareboat charters with lease terms of one to two years. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.5 Right-of-use assets (continued) Amounts recognised in profit and loss Depreciation expense on right-of-use assets Interest expense on lease liabilities Income from sub-leasing right-of-use assets 3.6 Impairment of Non-current assets 2023 $’000 4,599 527 1,622 2022 $’000 3,125 343 2,634 In previous years, the Group has performed a review of non-current asset values at each reporting period and whenever events occur or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may be impaired. This year, the review date was changed and the assessment performed as at 31 May 2023. Management have determined that the market conditions for our business has not changed between the date of impairment assessment and 30 June 2023. Market conditions are monitored for indications of impairment for all of the Group’s operating assets and where such indications are identified, a formal impairment assessment is performed. If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately. When an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or a cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so 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 cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Impairment testing The carrying amount of the net assets of the Group was greater than the Company’s market capitalisation which was an indicator of impairment at 31 May 2023. As a result, the Group assessed the recoverable amounts of the Vessels, Subsea and Project Logistics Cash- Generating Units (‘CGU’). The assessment resulted in the following impairment reversals/(charges) included in profit or loss: Segment/CGU Class of asset Vessels Vessels Subsea Total Property, Plant & Equipment Assets classified as held for sale Assets classified as held for sale Method FVLCOD FVLCOD FVLCOD Impairment reversal/(charge) 2023 $’000 80,337 - - 2022 $’000 35,435 (109) (22) 80,337 35,304 The inputs used in deriving the recoverable amount of each CGU is categorised in accordance within the following levels of the fair value hierarchy: CGU Vessels Level 3(i) $’000 434,821 Recoverable Amount $’000 434,821 (i) Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. In our Vessels calculations, the inputs used are based on both observable (vessel sales market) and unobservable (en bloc discount) market data prepared by an independent valuation consultant. Due to the unobservable market data and internal valuation components of the valuations, the inputs are considered Level 3. Inputs in determining the classification level within the fair value hierarchy are reassessed at each reporting period as part of the impairment process. The inputs used within calculations are assessed and discussed internally to determine the extent to which they can be compared to observable market information and classified accordingly. 86 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 87 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.6 Impairment of Non-Current Assets (continued) Industry Conditions This financial year has seen improvements in overall market conditions in which the Group operates. During the year the brent oil price has traded in a range between from USD 106/bbl in June 2022 to USD 75/bbl, at 30 June 2023. While the price has been relatively stable, the more recent decrease reflects the relative uncertainty about future growth rates globally on the back of rising interest rates coupled with the fear of recession in the United States and Chinese economies. Stronger Chinese oil demand, on the back of eased COVID restrictions, together with OPEC production target cuts, which have been extended out to 2024, have partially offset the growth uncertainty. The overall market conditions in which the Group operates have continued to improve during the period. Offshore vessel activity and rates have continued to improve throughout the Group’s markets. In addition, the redeployment of vessels to the Middle East market has tightened supply in South East Asia. Newbuild ordering is expected to remain limited by persistent difficulties in future proofing vessels, particularly with appropriate green technologies. Access to finance and increased pricing also remain challenges to potential newbuild projects. The offshore renewables market also continues to gather pace with significant projects committed requiring offshore support services. Vessels The recoverable amount of the core vessels was determined using a market-based approach, reflecting the value which could be expected to be realised through the disposal of the vessels, in an orderly market, on an “as is where is” basis between a willing buyer and willing seller. An independent valuation of the fleet was undertaken by a specialist marine valuation consultancy and shipbroking company. In preparing their valuation report, some of the factors they considered include the current market conditions in which the vessels operate, a review of recent market sales of similar vessels, consideration of the specification and earnings potential of each vessel and the inherent value and replacement cost of each vessel. As a result of the improving market conditions discussed above, the vessel valuation report reflected increases in values, leading to a partial reversal of prior year impairments. A key input into the recoverable amount of the CGU was the application of a discount to the independent vessel valuation to reflect the amount which would be achieved if the core fleet was disposed of in one single transaction. The Directors have decreased this discount to 5.0% for the current period from 15% at 30 June 2022 and 10% at 31 December 2022. The independent valuer decreased the expected range this year and the adopted rate is at the mid point of the range specified. The decrease in the discount is also consistent with the expectation disclosed in previous financial reports. The following factors were taken into account by the board in adopting this value: • offshore market indexes indicating increases of rates to the highest levels for seven years • despite a softening of the oil price during the year, the 2022 calendar year had the highest yearly average price since 2014 • • increasing global utilisation rates increasing global demand • continued decline in the number of vessels laid up • market evidence of increasing offshore vessel sales in 2023 • the adopted % being within the range provided by the independent valuer • all of the above have been evidenced by the achievement of higher utilisation and day rates for the Group’s vessels during the year. Consistent with previous periods, selling costs are also assumed to be 2% (2022: 2%) of the vessel sales value. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.6 Impairment of Non-Current Assets (continued) Key assumptions and sensitivity The Fair Value Less Cost of Disposal (FVLCOD) method requires an estimate of the current market value of the assets and the costs that would be associated with a disposal of the assets. In estimating the current market value of the assets, the Group engaged experienced and qualified valuers to perform valuations. Estimates have also been made on the discount to the independent vessel valuation to reflect the amount which would be achieved if the fleet was disposed of in one single transaction, plus the selling costs associated with the sale. The following provides information on the assumptions made in determining the fair value of the vessels and resulting reversal of impairment, together with a sensitivity analysis showing the potential impact on the vessel fair value based on the movement (increase or decrease) in the assumption. Assumption En bloc discount Selling costs Subsea Rate used 5.0% 2.0% Sensitivity movement 2.5% 0.5% Change in carrying value $’000 3,288 637 To assess the recoverable amount of the Subsea CGU, a Value in Use (ViU) assessment was performed using five year cash flows and a terminal value. There were no material changes in the underlying assumptions used from the assessment as at 30 June 2022, except for expected future cashflows being updated to reflect recent budgets for financial years 2024 to 2026. In determining the forecast revenues and operating expenses, consideration has been given to the following: • current and potential new contracts for the Subsea business • current and expected tendering activities • expected Subsea services activity in the region • cost of running the business including labour and overheads • project work has been budgeted by applying estimated gross margins, based on historical results, to the estimated revenues of projects • in assessing future revenues, potential projects are identified with estimates of their total revenue. A likelihood of success % is then applied to the revenue to reflect a risk weighted likely revenue amount During the year, the Group acquired the Subcon business (note 3.16) and has assessed the assets, including goodwill, to form part of the Subsea cash generating unit. A discount rate of 11.56% (2022: 11.33%) has been used for ViU assessments. In the budget approved by the board, forecast revenues have been increased for the FY24 to FY26 years to reflect the improving market conditions. 2% revenue growth in FY27 and FY28 has been assumed, with terminal year growth of 2% (2022: 2%) reflecting a long term inflation rate assumption for all of these years. This rate is also applied to operating expenditures. 88 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 89 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.6 Impairment of Non-Current Assets (continued) Key assumptions and sensitivity The recoverable value of the Subsea assets in the current year was assessed using a ViU approach. The estimation of future cashflows has been prepared based on approved group budgets with estimates and assumptions regarding future revenue growth rates, operating margins and discount rates. The following provides information on the assumptions made in determining the recoverable value of the assets, together with a sensitivity analysis showing the potential impact on the carrying value based on the movement (increase or decrease) in the relevant estimate or assumption. Assumption Discount rate Terminal year growth rate Rate used 11.56% 2.0% Sensitivity movement Increase/(Decrease) in recoverable value $’000 +0.5% -0.5% +0.5% -0.5% (5,502) 6,116 4,196 (3,778) The Subsea CGU has significant head room and application of any of these sensitivities would not result in impairment. Project Logistics To assess the recoverable amount of the Project Logistics CGU, a ViU assessment was performed using five year cash flows and a terminal value. The CGU has non-current assets of nil value. All other assets relate to working capital for day to day operations. In determining the forecast revenues and operating expenses, consideration has been given to the following: • current and potential new contracts for the Project Logistics business • current and expected tendering activities • expected Project Logistics services activity in the region • cost of running the business including labour and overheads • project work was budgeted by applying estimated gross margins, based on historical results to estimated revenues of projects • in assessing future revenues, potential projects are identified with estimates of their total revenue. A likelihood of success % is then applied to the revenue to reflect a risk weighted likely revenue amount • future revenues also include additional stretch amounts for expected future opportunities not yet specifically identified A discount rate of 11.56% (2022: 11.33%) has been used for ViU assessments. Total carrying value of the CGU is $-1.0m being net working capital resulting in low sensitivity to changes in assumptions. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.7 Investment in Associate In November 2021, the Group acquired a 49.9% interest in Global Aqua Survey (GAS) Ltd, a subsea company operating in Taiwan.

The facility expires in January 2025 with the outstanding balance payable in full. The scheduled repayments prior to expiry are A$5.5 million in June 2024 and A$7.5 million in December 2024. Repayments totalling $35.6 million were made during the year. Including $22.5 million from the disposal of the Batam Shipyard and $13.0 million from the sale of vessels. During the year, the interest rate payable was a base rate (LIBOR for US$ denominated loans, BBSY for A$ denominated loans) plus a margin calculated by reference to the groups leverage ratio. As a result of the phasing out of LIBOR, a facility agreement amendment was signed on 12 July 2023 revising the reference point for the base rate applicable to US$ denominated loans to Term SOFR (effective from 31 July 2023). This change is not expected to have any material effect on the loan amount, classification of the loan or the covenants other than a change in reference rate. The Facility is fully secured by fixed and floating charges given by certain controlled entities within the Group, registered ship mortgages over a number of vessels owned by certain controlled entities and real property mortgages. The US$31.8m component of the facility was designated as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation and the resulting foreign exchange movements of $1.7m (2022: $4.9m) are therefore included in Other Comprehensive Income as ‘Gain/loss on hedge of net investment in a foreign operation’ offsetting the foreign exchange movements in the US$ denominated entities in ‘Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations’.

Lease liabilities are recognised by the Group at Commencement date of the lease. These are measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over lease term. Lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, and amounts payable to return the leased asset to makegood condition. In calculating the present value of lease payment, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) at lease commencement date, where the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After commencement date, the liability is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for lease payments repaid. The carrying amount of lease liabilities are remeasured if there is a substantial modification, either in the change in lease term or change in lease payments or change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset. The Group applies short-term lease recognition exemptions to its short-term leases, which are defined as those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date. It applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases considered to be low-value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised as expenses on a straight line over the lease term. The Group does not face a significant liquidity risk with regard to its lease liabilities. Lease liabilities are monitored within the Group’s treasury function. 3.14 Provisions Current Ongoing legal claims Employee benefits – annual leave Employee benefits – long service leave Total Non-current 2023 $’000 1,956 4,954 5,281 12,191 2022 $’000 2,064 6,370 5,997 14,431 Employee benefits – long service leave 63 31 As disclosed in the 2021 and 2022 annual reports, a final arbitration award was made against a wholly owned subsidiary of MMA on 22 June 2021. MMA appealed that decision to the High Court of Singapore but on 26 June 2023 were advised the appeal was dismissed. As a result, a final payment of S$1.5 million was made on 3 July 2023. After receipt of formal notification, final settlement of costs will also be made. Significant Estimates In the current year, the Group has a total provision of $2.0 million (2021: $2.1 million) for the settlement of the legal claim. This amount has been estimated by the directors as a possible outflow that may be required to settle this legal claim. A liability is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave and long service leave in the period the related service is performed. Liabilities recognised 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. Liabilities recognised in respect of long-term employee benefits are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to reporting date. Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at reporting date, 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. 94 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 95 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 3.

Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period(s) in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by 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 current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax are recognised in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the current and deferred tax are also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively. 3. Assets and Liabilities (continued) 3.15 Deferred Tax Balances (continued) Unrecognised deferred tax assets Deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and unused tax credits for which no deferred tax assets have been recognised are attributable to the following: Tax losses (revenue in nature) Tax losses (capital in nature) 2023 $’000 2022 $’000 38,367 19,034 53,809 19,034 The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Nature of tax funding arrangements and tax sharing agreements Entities within the tax-consolidated group have entered into a tax funding arrangement and a tax sharing agreement with the head entity. Under the terms of the tax funding arrangement, MMA Offshore Ltd and each of the entities in the tax-consolidated group has agreed to pay a tax equivalent payment to or from the head entity, based on the current tax liability or current tax asset of the entity. Such amounts are reflected in amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax-consolidated group. The tax sharing agreement entered into between members of the tax-consolidated group provides for the determination of the allocation of income tax liabilities between the entities should the head entity default on its tax payment obligations or if any entity should leave the tax consolidated group. The effect of the tax sharing agreement is that each member’s liability for tax payable by the tax consolidated group is limited to the amount payable to the head entity under the tax funding arrangement. Key source of estimation uncertainty Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits, together with future tax planning strategies. The Group has $38,367,000 (2022: $53,809,000) of unrecognised deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward. These losses relate to subsidiaries that have been incurring tax losses in previous years during the downturn in the industry, do not expire, and may not be used to offset taxable income elsewhere in the Group. The subsidiaries neither have any taxable temporary difference nor any tax planning opportunities available that could partly support the recognition of these losses as deferred tax assets. On this basis, the Group has determined that it cannot recognise deferred tax assets on the tax losses carried forward. 3.16 Acquisition of Business On 28 July 2022, the Group acquired 100% of Subcon International Pty Ltd. Established in 2011 and headquartered in Perth, Subcon provides innovative stabilisation, coastal erosion and engineered reef solutions to the oil and gas, offshore wind, coastal infrastructure and tourism sectors both in Australia and internationally. The acquisition is strongly aligned with the Group strategy to extend and diversify our service offering in a sustainable manner. It enhances our service offering to our existing oil & gas and offshore wind markets by combining our capability, whilst Subcon also bring a number of new solutions to expand our reach into coastal erosion management and the tourism sectors.

The Group measured the acquired lease liabilities using the present value of the remaining lease payments at the date of acquisition. The right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities and adjusted to reflect the favourable terms of the lease relative to market terms. The goodwill reflects the alignment with the Group’s strategy. Benefits include an enhance capability to service our existing markets through the combination of service offerings, access to new markets through the range of innovative solutions including oil and gas decommissioning through Subcon’s rigs to reef offering. In addition the acquisition also provides benefits of market consolidation through the combination of the MMA’s existing subsea stabilisation offerings with Subcon. None of the goodwill recognised is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. During the reporting period after acquisition, the business contributed $7.0 million revenue and $0.3 million net loss after tax to the Group. 3.17 Disposal of shipyard On 1 December 2022, the Group completed the sale of the shipyard facility in Batam, Indonesia.

Share Rights As at 30 June 2023, executives and employees held rights over 21,221,843 ordinary shares (2022: 20,596,998). Share rights granted under the employee share rights plans carry no right to dividends and no voting rights. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. 4.2 Reserves Employee equity settled benefits Hedging Foreign currency translation Balance at end of financial year 2023 $’000 8,533 (63,110) 208,847 154,270 2022 $’000 4,787 (61,431) 198,128 141,484 The employee equity settled benefits reserve arises on the grant of share rights to executives and employees under the Company’s share rights plans. Amounts are transferred out of the reserve and into issued capital when the rights vest or expire. The hedging reserve is used to record gains and losses on hedges designated as cash flow hedges including hedges of net investments in a foreign operation. Gains and losses accumulated in the hedge reserve are taken to the profit or loss when the hedged transaction impacts the profit or loss, or is included as an adjustment to the initial carrying amount of the hedged item. For a net investment in a foreign operation any gains and losses are taken to profit or loss on disposal of the foreign operation. The foreign currency translation reserve represents exchange differences relating to the translation from the functional currencies of the Group’s foreign controlled entities into Australian Dollars. The assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into Australian Dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognised through other comprehensive income and recognised in equity. On the disposal of the foreign operation (i.e. a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation), all of the accumulated exchange differences in respect of that operation attributable to the Group are reclassified to profit or loss. 98 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 99 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 4. Capital Structure (continued) 4.4 Capital Risk Management The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns, while maximising the return to stakeholders through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance. The Group’s overall strategy remains unchanged from the 2022 financial year. The capital structure of the Group consists of net debt (borrowings as detailed in note 3.12 offset by cash at bank balances) and equity of the Group (comprising issued capital and reserves as detailed in notes 4.1 and 4.2 and accumulated losses). The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than normal banking requirements and has complied with all banking facility covenants. Based on recommendations of management and the Board, the Group will balance its overall capital structure through new share issues as well as the establishment of new borrowing facilities or repayment of existing facilities. The Group uses its leverage ratio (measured as debt to property plant & equipment) to manage its capital. The ratio is monitored on a monthly basis by the Board and management. Leverage Ratio The leverage ratio at the end of the reporting period was as follows: Debt (i) Cash and cash equivalents Net (assets)/debt Property, plant & equipment (ii) Leverage ratio (i) Debt is defined as gross long and short-term borrowings, as detailed in note 3.12. (ii) Property, plant and equipment includes all fixed assets owned by the group, as detailed in note 3.4. 2023 $’000 81,318 (106,346) (25,028) 431,442 (6%) 2022 $’000 115,419 (73,864) 41,555 370,338 11% 4.

Other Notes (continued) 5.2 Share Based Payments (continued) Fair value of share rights granted during the year The weighted average fair value of rights issued during the year are detailed in the above table. Equity settled share based payments to employees are measured at fair value of the equity instrument at grant date. The fair value of the rights issued during the year in Series 12, were based on the share price at the date of issuing, when all vesting conditions had been met. The rights in Series 13 were valued using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The following shows the inputs into the valuation model for the rights granted during the year: Inputs into the model Grant date share price Exercise price Expected volatility Life of rights Dividend yield Risk free rate Series 13 $0.73 $0.00 55% 2.64 years Nil 3.31% Expected volatility of 55.0% is based on analysis of the Companies historical daily share price movement prior to the Grant Date. As a result of the short-term increase in historical volatility caused by the onset of COVID in February to April 2020, these months have been excluded from our analysis. 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 equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with corresponding adjustment to the employee equity settled benefits reserve.

These risks include market risk (including currency and interest rate risk) credit risk and liquidity risk. A Treasury Policy has been approved by the Board and provides guidelines for conducting treasury activities. Compliance with this Policy is monitored through internal audit procedures and subsequent reporting to the Audit and Risk Committee. The Group seeks to minimise the effects of these risks, by using, where considered appropriate, derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures. The allowable financial derivatives and conditions for their use are documented in the Treasury Policy. The Group does not enter into or trade financial instruments including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Market risk The Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Where required, the Group can enter into a range of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to these risks. At a Group level, these market risks are managed through sensitivity analysis. There is no change in the manner in which these risks are managed and measured in the current year. Foreign currency risk management The Group undertakes transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Consequently, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilising forward foreign exchange contracts, when it is considered appropriate. The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the financial year are as follows: US Dollars Singapore Dollars British Pound Sterling Malaysian Ringgits New Zealand Dollars Other Liabilities Assets 2023 $’000 70,543 1,651 2,794 287 1,645 1,318 2022 $’000 63,063 1,705 2,902 103 963 107 2023 $’000 146,621 1,622 5,812 3,780 1,566 1,490 2022 $’000 62,091 2,072 8,555 7,837 2,229 2,661 5. Other Notes (continued) 5.8 Financial Instruments (continued) Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The Group is mainly exposed to US Dollars (USD), Singapore Dollars (SGD), British Pound Sterling (GBP), Malaysian Ringgits (MYR) and New Zealand Dollars (NZD). The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% increase in the Australian Dollar against the relevant foreign currencies. The 10% sensitivity represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 10% change in foreign currency rates. A positive number below indicates an increase in profit or equity where the Australian dollar strengthens 10% against the relevant currency. For a 10% weakening of the Australian Dollar against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the profit or equity.

Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk because it borrows funds primarily at floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Group by the use of interest rate derivatives when considered appropriate. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied, if required. At this point in the interest rate cycle the Group is unhedged. The Group’s exposures to interest rates on financial assets and financial liabilities are detailed in the liquidity risk management section of this note. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in interest rates. At reporting date, if interest rates had been 100 basis points higher / lower and all other variables were held constant, the impact on the net profit of the Group would be a decrease / increase in net profit of $815,319 (2022: decrease / increase by $1,154,188). The decrease in the exposure to interest rates on its variable borrowings is attributable to the $36m reduction in the loan facility during the current financial year. 110 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 MMA Offshore Limited | Annual Report 2023 111 Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023Notes to the Financial Statements For the year ended of 30 June 2023 5. Other Notes (continued) 5.8 Financial Instruments (continued) Credit risk management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The credit worthiness of each customer is assessed to ensure minimal default risk. The Group’s exposures to its counterparties are continuously monitored by management. Where appropriate, the Group obtains guarantees from customers. Cash terms, advance payments or letters of credit are requested from customers of lower credit standing. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers spread across the offshore oil and gas exploration, development and production industries, renewables industries, governments and defence, and across diverse geographical areas. Ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of trade receivables. Debtor concentration risk is low with the top three customers of the Group making up only 27% (2022:28%) of the total debtor balance. The Group does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any group of counterparties having similar characteristics. The Group defines counterparties as having similar characteristics if they are related entities. The credit risk on the three largest receivables is managed through regular meetings with the customers, on-going contractual arrangements and regular receipts for the balances outstanding. The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. The carrying amount of financial assets recognised in the financial statements, which is net of impairment losses, represents the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk. 5.

Liquidity risk management • The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded on active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices. • The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves, borrowing facilities, continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and managing credit terms with customers and suppliers. 5.9 Contingent Liabilities Guarantees given to third parties in respect of dealings, are in the normal course of business. Total amount of the guarantee facility is $20.0 million (2022: $20.0 million) with total drawn amounts of $2.2 million (2022: $2.0 million). Liquidity and interest risk tables The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity for its non-derivative financial liabilities with agreed repayment periods. The tables have 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. To the extent that interest flows are at floating rate, the undiscounted amount is derived from current interest rates at the end of the reporting period.
