Chairman's

Letter to

Shareholders

Dear Shareholders

As announced by Seven Group Holdings (SGH) to ASX on

25 August 2021, I will be retiring from the Board of SGH at the conclusion of this forthcoming AGM. In my 27 years as Chairman of SGH and its predecessor entity, the Company has never been in a better position. All of the businesses are performing exceptionally well with excellent prospects and the investment in Boral has added a new dimension to the Group's future.

It is gratifying to have been involved in the creation and development of SGH and, as I step aside, I am confident the Company has a highly capable board and talented management who are working to deliver a strong and bright future. At the Board's request, I will remain available to provide strategic advice to the Board and Management as required. As the major shareholder of SGH, I am totally committed to SGH's future and the Board and Management have my complete support.

As a result of an orderly succession planning process, the Board unanimously elected Mr Terry Davis, Lead Independent Director, to become the Chairman of SGH upon my retirement. Terry has served on the SGH Board since 2010 and has been closely involved in the growth and success of the Group. I know he will be an excellent Chairman.

Given the challenges presented by COVID-19, as a Board, we were proud of the way in which our businesses responded during the year to ensure we continued to meet the requirements of our customers. In particular, I would like to acknowledge the dedication and commitment of the management team and our people. We are fortunate to have quality leadership in all our businesses supported by prudent and judicious management of financial resources. The Board decision to increase the dividend by 10 per cent demonstrates our confidence in the outlook and the continued strength of our businesses and is in line with our objective of maximising long-term sustainable returns to our shareholders.

Creating value for stakeholders is our primary objective, and we understand that achieving that objective over the long-term requires an equal commitment to non-financial outcomes.

3

This decision was taken following a comprehensive review of our Environmental, Social and Governance arrangements, and is part of a broader set of commitments to provide more transparency and accountability to investors and other stakeholders in this area, culminating in SGH's release of its first 'standalone' Sustainability Report at the end of September 2021.

This year SGH deployed the balance of the funding commitment for bushfire relief towards rebuilding and recovery efforts in key communities in NSW, Victoria and South Australia and

in responding to the fires in Western Australia in early 2021. Through the past 18 months we have contributed $4.9 million to communities in need to support their recovery.

It is important that I acknowledge the contribution of my fellow Board members and thank them for their support. The SGH Board comprises Directors whose collective experiences across diverse sectors ensures we retain a deep understanding of business and governance that provides the Group with a valuable balance of skills and knowledge.

I would also like to acknowledge the SGH executive team led by Mr Ryan Stokes AO as Managing Director & CEO. The SGH team has continued to focus on the performance of our businesses and ensuring the company is positioned to grow with the investment in Boral.

In reflecting on what SGH has achieved in terms of building stronger businesses and delivering shareholder returns, I am confident that I leave SGH in the best possible hands under the stewardship of Terry and the Board and the leadership of Ryan and his team.

On behalf of the Board I thank our people, customers and shareholders for their ongoing loyalty and support for our Company.
