Monday, 9 February 2026 – Robotic technology company FBR Limited (ASX:FBR; OTCID:FBRKF) (‘FBR’ or
‘Company’) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Lindsay Partridge AM as an independent Non-

Mr Partridge brings to the Board over 40 years of distinguished commercial experience, including a 25-year
tenure as the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Brickworks Limited, Australia’s largest building

Mr Partridge holds a Bachelor of Engineering (Ceramic Engineering) from the University of New South Wales
and has completed the Stanford University Executive Program. In 2012 Mr Partridge was appointed a Member
of the Order of Australia for services to the building and construction industry, and in 2018 the HIA awarded Mr
Partridge the prestigious Sir Phillip Lynch Award of Excellence, recognising him for his outstanding and
distinguished contribution to the residential building industry at the highest level of excellence and integrity.
The appointment of Mr Partridge aligns with FBR’s strategy to strengthen its Board with proven leadership in
operational scaling, capital allocation and international expansion as the Company moves into its next phase
of growth.
Mr Partridge’s director fees for the first 12 months of his appointment will be satisfied by the issue of
12,500,000 Shares at a deemed issue price of 0.4 cents each, subject to shareholder approval to be sought at
the Company’s 2026 AGM.
FBR’s Non-Executive Chair, Shannon Robinson commented:
“We are delighted to welcome Lindsay to the Board of FBR. His track record of generating long-term
shareholder value and navigating complex market cycles as a highly respected leader in the construction
industry is second to none. Lindsay’s experience in building an Australian manufacturing company into a
world-renowned organisation will be invaluable as we execute our strategic vision.”
Mr Lindsay Partridge AM commented:
“I am excited to be joining FBR at such a pivotal time in its development. The technology sector is driving
significant change across the global economy, and FBR has established a strong foundation for future success
with Hadrian, Mantis and all the other opportunities created by the core technology the team has developed. I
look forward to working with the Board and the management team to apply my experience in scaling operations
to help the Company realise its full potential and deliver returns for shareholders.”
