We are proud to present the annual report of TINC for the financial 2024, a year in which our strategic investments and operational commitment were again rewarded with outstanding results.
These results validate our motto "creating sustainable value by investing in the infrastructure for the world of tomorrow". Indeed, our investments in forward-looking infrastructure create tangible and sustainable value – for society as well as for our shareholders. For the eight year in a row, TINC succeeds in increasing the distribution to its shareholders.
This highlights our ability to achieve financial success through thoughtful investments with a positive impact on the future.
TINC presents again strong results over the past financial year. The diversification of the portfolio with participations across segments and countries – each with its different dynamics – undoubtedly supports the robust nature of the overall portfolio
With €50.7 million TINC obtains again an outstanding portfolio result, that translates in to a portfolio return of 10.8%.
The net profit over the past financial year amounts to €42.5 million or €1.17 per share.
TINC is proposing a shareholder distribution of €0.58 per share, an increase of 3,6% compared to last year's shareholder distribution. This is the eighth year in a row that TINC increases the shareholder distribution. The distribution represents a gross return of 5.26% on the closing share price at the end of the financial year. The distribution amounts to 49.6% of the net profit of the year and is fully covered by cash flows that TINC receives from its investment portfolio.
The investment policy of TINC is embedded in four key societal trends: the transition to a low-carbon society, the need to upgrade public infrastructure, increasing digitization and the growing focus on health and well-being. For TINC, these trends provide the framework for investments in four segments: Public Infrastructure, Energy Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure, and Social Infrastructure.
TINC enjoyed another strong investment year with €141.3 million in new commitments, The portfolio grows with additional commitments to three existing participations (Datacenter United, GlasDraad and De Haan Vakantiehuizen) and four new participations (PPS Hortus Conclusus, PPS SPI.R0, watercompany Azulatis and renewable energy firm Storm Group). These investment commitments are spread across the four segments, and shape the ambition to aim for profitable growth and further diversification of the portfolio.
TINC effectively invested €37.8 million in existing and new participations under its investment commitments.
TINC acquired a 75% interest in Datacenter United in 2020. After a number of acquisitions, the company has grown from a small local player into an established presence in the Belgian data centre landscape with nine state-of the-art Tier III/IV data centres at eight strategic locations in Flanders andBrussels, offering collocation services. This involves hosting critical business applications and data in secure server racks in optimal conditions. During the financial year, TINC agreed to reduce its participation in Datacenter United through a 50% partial disposal to Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Limited, a specialist digital infrastructure investor. TINC and Cordiant will provide additional capital to Datacenter United for the acquisition of the Belgian data centre activities of Proximus, after which the company will operate 13 data centres with a stronger presence in Brussels and the possibility of further expansion at its existing locations. Going forward, the company is well positioned to meet the increasing demand for digital infrastructure. With a strong balance sheet and ambitious shareholders, Datacenter United is in an excellent position to seize consolidation opportunities and expand its customer base from collocation to hyperscale solutions.
This groundbreaking transaction that was completed on February 28, 2025 is testimony to the ability to create a valuable combination from a complex situation. TINC not only realises an above-average return, but also releases rotational funding for additional new investments.
The investment portfolio includes 31 participations at the end of the financial year, three more than a year earlier.
The fair value of the investment portfolio increases by €43.7 million to €512.1 million. This 9.3% increase compared to the previous financial year is the net result of investments in existing and new participations (€37.8 million), repayments from and divestments of participations (€13.9 million) and an increase in the fair value of the portfolio (€18.0 million). The fair value of the portfolio is evenly spread over the four segments, with 27% in Public Infrastructure, 24% Energy Infrastructure, 26% Digital Infrastructure and 23% Social Infrastructure.
The fair value of the investment portfolio is calculated by applying a discount rate to the future cash flows from each individual participation. The weighted average discount rate amounts to 8.4% at the end of the financial year, compared to 8.1% at the end of the previous financial year. The increase is the result of changes in the composition of the investment portfolio, and the application of a more granular approach in the segments Public Infrastructure and Energy Infrastructure. In particular, the increased volatility of power prices and the reduced risk of a potential subsidy cut in respect of the Flemish solar farms are considered in respect of the energy participations.
TINC received €44.8 million in cash flows from its investment portfolio. This includes predominantly dividends and interest, and capital repayments by participations.
At end of the financial year, TINC has €205.0 million of contractual investment commitments outstanding, which are projected to be effectively invested over the 2025-2028 period. Of this total amount, €65.5 million relates to the Public Infrastructure segment, €30.3 million to the Energy Infrastructure segment, €73.3 million to the Digital Infrastructure segment, and €35.9 million to the Social Infrastructure segment.
Through the combination of the current participations and the €205.0 million of outstanding contractual investment commitments, the investment portfolio of TINC will evolve to approximately €700 million.
TINC will use cash flows from its investment portfolio – including the proceeds of asset disposals – and debt funding in order to meet its contractual investment commitments. TINC has contracted a € 200.0 million revolving credit facility which is available to meet outstanding investment commitments and for general investment purposes. At the end of the financial year, €193.1 million remains available. The net debt position of TINC amounts to €6.0 million at the end of the financial year.
TINC also has a sustainable finance framework. This framework is implemented with the specific objective of attracting debt funding for sustainable investments within the segments in which TINC operates.
As an investor in the infrastructure for the world of tomorrow, TINC adopts an explicit long-term vision that is inextricably linked to a focus on societal relevance and sustainability. TINC is committed to contributing to a low-carbon, healthy, connected, safe and prosperous society through its investment policy and participations. This vision is embedded in the sustainability strategy of TINC for purposes of identifying new opportunities and managing its participations
In June 2024, the mandate of Helga Van Peer as independent board member terminated. We would like to thank Helga for her contribution to foster the development of TINC. The supervisory board is an independent and diversified body that consists of 8 members at the end of the financial year.
During the past financial year, Infravest – a newly incorporated 100% subsidiary of Gimv – has acquired 21.32% of the shares of TINC from Belfius and Gimv. Infravest has also agreed to acquire the interest of Belfius and Gimv in TDP NV in return for new shares in Infravest. Gimv has further agreed to transfer half of its shareholding in Infravest to WorxInvest following the TDP transaction.
These transactions were subject to obtaining all regulatory approvals, which were obtained on March 10, 2025 allowing the strategic cooperation to start.
This strategic repositioning of the reference shareholder is aimed to bolster the support for the ambition of TINC to double its investment portfolio.

We thank our shareholders for their trust, and look forward with confidence. Our robust portfolio and extensive financing capabilities provide a solid basis to continue the growth trajectory of TINC.

Project Infrastructure
Corporate Infrastructure

Investments in public infrastructure generally take the form of a participation in a public-private partnership (PPP), through which a consortium of industrial and financial partners designs, builds, and finances public infrastructure. This infrastructure is then maintained by the consortium for a fixed contractual period, during which it is made available to a public partner for a fee. At the end of the contract, the infrastructure is transferred to the public partner.
All projects are public-private partnerships based on availability fees, usually under a DBFM or a DBFMO contract (Design, Build, Finance, and Maintain (and Operate)). This is an integrated contract form where the contractor is not only responsible for the financing, design, and construction of an asset, but also for its maintenance. All aspects of a project, from design to maintenance, are combined and allocated to a single party, which ensures more efficient project execution.
During the term of the contract, TINC receives a fixed fee for its PPP participations from public authorities in return for making the infrastructure available. This fee is not linked to the level of actual use, but covers the operating costs incurred for the maintenance of the infrastructure and the associated finance costs. Financing comes in the form of both debt capital from lenders and equity capital provided by TINC. This equity contribution is an essential part of the PPP structure. TINC thus enables its partners to focus on the design, realisation and maintenance of these projects.

Education
Accommodation

TINC holds the public infrastructure for the complete life cycle from development and design, during construction, and through to maintenance and operation. It cooperates with local and international contractors in realising and maintaining these projects.
To date, TINC has contributed to the development of over €3 billion of vital public infrastructure through the PPP structure.

Public Infrastructure will inevitably evolve in alongside today's complex and challenging society. Flexible, effective, and inclusive forms of education, or safe and efficient mobility are only a few examples. Public authorities have significant investments to make, and these offer attractive growth opportunities for TINC.
To this end, TINC closely monitors developments concerning public tenders and public-private financing, in cooperation with its partners.

TINC's participations include onshore windfarms and solar farms in Belgium, the Netherlands, and Ireland with a capacity of approximately 400 MW, of which 53 MW solar farms. This is equivalent to the annual power consumption of about 340,000 households. TINC also provides a subordinated loan to finance an offshore windfarm in Belgium with a total installed capacity of approximately 165 MW.
These participations obtain income from the sale of power, from support mechanisms, or from a combination of the two, whereby profitability is largely driven by the actual power generation, the evolution of the short and long-term power price, and the level of support under green energy support mechanisms.
A solid and consistent sustainability policy on a European, national, and international level creates significant opportunities for investment and growth in energy infrastructure.
TINC closely follows developments in relation to the energy transition, and plans to continue investing actively in this area in the future. TINC cooperates with renowned developers and operators in the energy transition domain.




| Country | Technology | Support mechanism for green energy |
|---|---|---|
| Belgium | • Onshore wind farms in Flanders receive a subsidy per MWh produced that is paid by the Flemish government over a period of 10 to 15 years in the form of Green Certificates (GSCs). The subsidy per MWh is different for each windfarm, is not indexed, and is paid on top of the sale of the power produced. For windfarms built from 2014 onwards, this mechanism is variable over time and depends partly on movements in the market power prices. When power prices in the market price are higher, the subsidy is lower, and vice versa. • The support mechanism in Wallonia allows renewable energy producers to enjoy Green Certificates (GSCs) over a period of 20 years in addition to the sale of power produced. The number of GSCs received per MWh depends on three factors: the amount of CO2 saved, the evolution of ENDEX prices and a cap (called the 'ceiling') that takes into account when the GSCs are reserved. |
|
| The subsidy for offshore windfarms in Belgium is a fixed amount per MWh produced that is paid by the Belgian Federal Government. This subsidy is paid over a longer period than the term of the subordinated loan provided by TINC. The subsidy per MWh produced is not indexed. The power production is sold in the market. |
||
| The subsidy for solar farms in Flanders is a fixed amount per MWh of power generated that is paid by the Flemish government in the form of green certificates over a period of 20 years. The subsidy per MWh is different for each solar farm and is not indexed. Solar farm owners also receive a price for the power sold locally or on the market. |
||
| Netherlands | The subsidy for onshore wind farms in the Netherlands is an amount per MWh produced that is paid over a period of 15 years by the Dutch Government under the 'Subsidie Duurzame Energie' or 'SDE' scheme. The subsidy per MWh is different for each windfarm and is not indexed. The subsidy is variable over time and depends on power prices in the market, while the windfarm owner also receives a price for the power sold in the market. When power prices in the market price are higher, the subsidy is lower, and vice versa. In addition, a minimum and maximum amount per windfarm is set for the subsidy per MWh produced. |
|
| Ireland | The subsidy for onshore windfarms in Ireland is a fixed amount per MWh of power generated that is paid by the Irish government in the form of a fixed Renewable Energy Feed-in Tariff (REFIT) over a period of 15 years. The subsidised price per MWh is different for each windfarm, is indexed, and includes the market price of the electricity. If the market price is higher than the subsidised price, the operator will receive the higher market price. |

During the past financial year, the power production of the onshore wind farms amounts to 447 GWh (pro rata the share of TINC).
Overall wind conditions during the year were slightly below expectations.
The power production of the solar farms amounts to 24 GWh (pro rata the share of TINC). Total power production was below expectations, as there were fewer hours of sunshine during the year than projected.
The evolution of market power prices is an important factor in the results of the energy participations. During the past financial year, the market power price was volatile with a downward trend.
An amount is usually deducted from the gross projected revenues that the energy participations expect to receive from the sale of the power production. This amount consists of two components. On the one hand, profile risk is taken into account, being the principle that when there is a lot of wind or sun, the power supply in the market sometimes exceeds demand, resulting in a lower power price during that period. As the number of wind and solar farms increases year on year, the profile risk also increases, which is expected to increase the discount on projected power prices in the coming years.

On the other hand, imbalance risk is taken into account. This is a discount that is applied when the effective power production at a certain point in time deviates from the projected production shortly before. The buyer of this power will therefore apply a discount on the market power price to cover the cost of keeping the network in balance at all times.
In February 2024, TINC and Flemish investment company PMV have jointly committed (each for half) € 60 million of growth financing to Storm Group for the realization of an ambitious investment program.
The effective investments under this commitment will take place in the period 2024-2025, with the funds being used for, among other things, building battery storage capacity and rolling out a network of fast charging stations for electric verhicles. By the end of the financial year, TINC had already effectively invested € 12,5 million.
Two new windfarms were commissioned during the reporting period. Also, at the Wachtebeke windfarm, the existing wind turbines were replaced by a model with more power (a process called "repowering"). This more than doubles the capacity of the wind farm from 5 MW to 11.2 MW. The old turbines are given a second life elsewhere, in line with the principle of circular economy. During the reporting period, the first Storm Wind België windfarm in Wallonia also became operational. This windfarm with a capacity of 11 MW is located in Courrière.
Storm Wind Ireland (IRL)
The revenues of Storm Wind Ireland increased significantly in recent years boosted by strong power prices. This resulted in a significant dividend payment to TINC during the financial year. Notwithstanding the strong cash flow, the production of the windfarm falls short of the original projections. This is caused in part by a number of technical issues that should be able to be remedied. Storm Wind Ireland is seeking regress at the windfarm manufacturer and maintenance parties who have provided certain performance guarantees. The windfarm has further received a noise complaint from a neighbouring family although the windfarm complies with its obligations under its operating licence. Storm Wind Ireland is seeking to address this complaint with a constructive solution.
In consultation with Zelfstroom, TINC has scaled back its existing investment commitment of €17 million to € 6,1 million. The sharp decline in the demand for new solar installations in the Netherlands prompts Zelfstroom to revise its sales and investment ambitions. This reduction of the investment commitment has no impact on amounts already invested by TINC.
At the end of the financial year, this commitment was fully invested in solar power installations rented out to residential customers.
On 5 August, TINC received an amount of €3.37 million from its participation Northwind NV. This amount represents the full repayment of the principal of the outstanding mezzanine loan, including accrued interest and an early repayment fee. As a result, Northwind NV is no longer part of the investment portfolio of TINC.
The Energy Infrastructure segment includes 11 participations with a fair value of €121.8 million. During the financial year, TINC made a total of € 30 million of new investment commitments. This consists of a €30 million commitment as part of a €60 million financing to Storm Group. The outstanding investment commitment to Zelfstroom was reduced by €10.9 million. At the end of the financial year, the total outstanding investment commitments in the Energy Infrastructure segment amount to €30.3 million.
TINC effectively invested €12.5 million in Storm Group during the financial year. The portfolio result of the Energy Infrastructure segment amounts to €3.6 million, with cash receipts standing at €18.7 million. The historically high power prices over the past years generated higher revenues at the energy participations, resulting in an upward valuation trend and strong cash revenues.
During the past financial year, the short-term power price projections returned to more usual levels, which resulted in a downward valuation revision of some energy participations and a reduction of the portfolio result compared to the previous financial year.

Key components include network infrastructure, such as high-performance fibre optic networks and transmission masts for mobile networks, and data centres for data management and storage. The development of digital infrastructure is strongly driven by the ongoing growth in demand for technical services and data storage.
The revenue model for digital infrastructure typically consists of income from the rental of network or storage capacity to a variety of customers and users.
Digital infrastructure often improves existing traditional infrastructure. Smart mobility, for example, adds value through real-time data exchange over connected networks. The use of digital infrastructure can, therefore, lead to more efficient and more effective use in various industries, including traditional infrastructure.
Digitisation requires significant investment and is, therefore, a major priority in the investment and growth ambitions of TINC.

GlasDraad was founded in 2017 on the initiative of TINC to provide residents and businesses in rural parts of the Netherlands access to a super-fast, reliable, and affordable fibre optic network.
GlasDraad creates network connections based on actual demand from residents and companies who do not yet have broadband internet access. It then operates these networks based on an 'open access' model, which means that multiple service providers can provide customised content and packages to their customers over the GlasDraad network. GlasDraad receives recurring fees from internet service providers who deliver their content over the network to end users, as well as fees from end users.
In April 2023, GlasDraad sealed a partnership deal with Dutch company Glaspoort, a joint venture of KPN and APG (the administration and investment arm of Dutch public pension fund ABP), which is also active in the roll-out of fibre optic networks in the Netherlands. The two partners' geographic complementarity enables them to considerably accelerate the roll-out of superfast fibre optic internet in the Netherlands: GlasDraad operates mainly in rural areas, while Glaspoort operates in smaller municipalities, villages, and industrial estates. Under this partnership, Glaspoort acquired a 50% stake in GlasDraad, with an option to acquire a 100% stake in the longer term at a price to be based on, among other things, the number of connections and the number of active users of the network.
TINC and Glaspoort will jointly invest in GlasDraad's development capacity in order to achieve their roll-out ambitions in the Netherlands. The pooled expertise of Glaspoort and GlasDraad and the use of the latest technologies will undoubtedly benefit the customer experience. The two companies' open access network will offer access to telecommunications providers.

Net profit for the financial year amounts to €42.5 million or €1.17 per share. This net profit follows on the back of a strong portfolio result, reflecting the good operational and financial performance of the investment portfolio. The comparative figures on 31 December 2023 cover an extended financial year of 18 months.

The portfolio result for the financial year amounts to €50.7 million. This translates into a portfolio return of 10.84%.
This portfolio result is the net result of several elements:
• The change of the weighted average discount rate of 8.10% to 8.4%. This is predominantly the the result of applying a more granular approach to the public infrastructure and energy infrastructure segments. In particular, the increased volatility of power prices and the reduced risk of a potential subsidy cut in respect of the Flemish solar farms are considered in respect of the energy participations.

The project will be realized at the North Sea Port Vlissingen, a major hub for renewable energy in the Netherlands. It replaces a former coal-fired power plant with access to TenneT's high-voltage grid, and represents an important step forward in supporting the transition to renewable energy in the Netherlands by strengthening its critical energy infrastructure. TINC is investing €61 million in Project Mufasa for a preferred equity stake of 36.67%. The investment is financed by TINC under its €200 million revolving credit facility.
On February 28, 2025, the partial sale of a stake in Datacenter United and the acquisition of Proximus' Belgian data centers announced in October 2024 was completed. The financial impact of the transaction was reflected in the annual results published as of December 31, 2024. The combination of the proceeds of partial sale and the additional capital investment in Datacenter United to
finance the acquisition of the Proximus data centers results in a net investment of approximately €45 million for TINC. TINC financed this investment under its €200 million revolving credit facility.
On March 10, 2025, the approval of the strategic cooperation between Gimv, WorxInvest and Belfius as partners for the further growth of TINC was announced. On September 19, 2024, an agreement was announced whereby WorxInvest would acquire half of Gimv NV's stake in Infravest NV. Infravest NV – incorporated as a 100% subsidiary of Gimv - is the largest shareholder of TINC NV with a 21.32% stake and is also the indirect shareholder of TINC Manager NV, the statutory director of TINC NV. As part of this transaction Gimv NV and Belfius Bank NV would also contribute their respective stakes in TDP NV, the joint venture set up by Gimv and Belfius to develop and manage a wide range of infrastructure projects, to Infravest NV. The entire transaction was subject to customary conditions precedent including approval by the relevant authorities. In the meantime, all approvals have been obtained and as from March 10, 2025, the strategic cooperation can start. WorxInvest and Gimv each now hold
a 40.8% stake in Infravest NV, and Belfius also joins as a minority shareholder with a 18.4% stake. Following this transaction, Mr. Filip Dierckx and Mr. Nils de Bremaeker join the supervisory board of TINC Manager NV, statutory director of TINC NV, nominated by Infravest NV. The mandate of Mr. Peter Vermeiren ends. The Supervisory Board wishes to express its gratitude to Peter who has contributed to the TINC story from the very beginning. From now on the Supervisory Board has 8 members including three independent directors including Mr. Philip Maeyaert, independent chairman.
Results
In carrying out its operations as an investment company, TINC is subject to risks both at the level of TINC itself and at the level of the participations in which TINC invests.
Within the framework developed by the Supervisory Board, at the proposal of the Management Board and on the advice of the Audit Committee, the Management Board is responsible for risk management, covering internal control and compliance with laws and regulations. Risks are managed through a process of continuous identification, assessment, evaluation and mitigation. The Management Board reports to the Supervisory Board at least once a year on the general and financial risks and the management and control systems. The risk factors described below are limited to those risks that TINC considers material and specific to TINC and its participations because they could have an adverse effect on the activities, financial condition, the operating results, the reputation and the prospects of TINC and/or its participations, on the ability of TINC to finance its investment obligations and consequently also on the share price.
Although a large number of participations see their income increase with rising prices, a sustained inflationary environment can weigh on the cost structure and consequently on the results of both TINC and the participations.
TINC has no participations with infrastructure located in areas currently experiencing war, persistent violence or political unrest. Geopolitical events and tensions can nevertheless have an impact on the stability of the financial markets or the economic system and on the availability of debt and/or capital instruments for TINC to finance its investment commitments.
Adequate opportunities to create value for TINC by investing in infrastructure companies that can generate cash flows, realize them and distribute them to TINC, may not be sufficiently present, or may be present but in an insufficiently diversified manner, under unattractive conditions, or may be limited or prevented by macroeconomic and cyclical conditions, changing regulations or political developments. TINC's growth depends in part on its ability to manage the future expansion of its portfolio of participations and to identify, select and execute attractive investment opportunities in an appropriate manner in accordance with TINC's strategy.
The availability of future investment opportunities depends in part on market conditions, and therefore there can be no assurance that TINC will be able to
identify and execute a sufficient number of future investment opportunities to allow TINC to expand its portfolio.
Further growth of TINC and its portfolio is also expected to place additional demands on management, support, accounting and financial control and other resources and would entail a number of related risks, including the potential disruption of ongoing activities and distraction of management and increased operational costs at the level of TINC.
TINC has contractually committed to a number of financial commitments with regard to existing and future participations. These include commitments to invest additional funds in existing participations, as well as commitments to acquire new participations at a later date.
The financial resources of TINC prove insufficient to finance such commitments and further growth, TINC will have to raise additional financing, in the form of an issue of new shares or debt instruments or in the form of a credit facility (or a combination). There is no guarantee that such options will always be available on acceptable terms.
Financing needs can also be addressed by selling the more liquid participations in the portfolio. However, the majority of the participations held by TINC include interests in participations that are not publicly or freely tradable and that are often subject to restrictions on transfer (e.g. approval of the transfer by other parties) and that therefore may have to be realized at a value lower than the value attributed to such investments.
TINC holds cash reserves in bank accounts at various financial institutions.
The systems of the relevant financial institutions could be affected by external circumstances, including disruptions in the IT systems or cyber-attacks. Similar risks related to financial institutions apply to TINC's participations. TINC makes investment decisions based on estimates and/or forecasts of investment cash flows generated by the participations, including assumptions about the amount and timing of costs over the lifetime of the relevant participations (which can be up to 35 years). Such estimates, projections and forecasts may be based, at least in part, on large and detailed financial models, and there is always a risk that errors will be made in the assumptions, calculations or methodologies used in such models, or that the relevant hypothetical parameters will differ from actual results.
TINC is exposed to sustainability-related risks both as a responsible company and as a sustainable investor. This applies primarily with regard to its investment portfolio (see below). TINC's non-compliance with increasingly stringent sustainability regulations can lead to legal sanctions, higher operational costs and stricter supervision. Furthermore, stakeholders' unfulfilled sustainability expectations (including not (fully) meeting standards and ESG scores and sustainability criteria) can damage confidence in TINC and its reputation.
TINC invests in participations that are active in highly regulated sectors such as energy, public-private partnerships, specialized residential care and research and development in the life sciences industry. Changes in applicable laws, regulations or government policies, including currently applicable tax laws, tax regimes (such as applicable tax rates, the use of tax loss carryforwards, the deduction of interest expenses, the taxation of dividends received and the taxation of capital gains on shares) and/or the (direct or indirect) tax status of
TINC or a participation, accounting practices and accounting standards, can have a (negative) impact on TINC or (the cash flows generated from) a specific participation. Governments could also try to renegotiate existing contracts.
TINC has the legal form of a public limited company with a sole Statutory Director appointed in the articles of association as its management model. The mandate of the Statutory Director can only be terminated, without its consent, by (i) the general meeting of shareholders, in accordance with the requirements for amending the articles of association, for valid reasons, or (ii) a court order on a request for good cause by a special proxy appointed by shareholders holding voting shares representing at least 3% of TINC's share capital. The abovementioned governance model allows the Statutory Director to exercise a controlling influence on decision-making. Consequently, the influence of other holders of shares in TINC will be limited.
TINC is largely dependent on TDP NV for its investment activities and the management of its investment portfolio, to whom the responsibility for providing investment and administrative services has been entrusted. The loss of TDP or significant changes in the management or team of employees can have a (temporary) negative impact.
There are no arrangements with TINC's main shareholders regarding investment opportunities offered, so it is possible that the main shareholders themselves pursue such investment opportunities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain principles regarding the allocation of investment opportunities were agreed upon in a partnership agreement between TINC and TDP NV (as further described elsewhere in the Annual Report 2024).
TINC is dependent on third parties for the management of its IT systems (hardware, software, network, storage systems). Human error, natural disasters or disruptions to the IT systems can compromise the confidentiality, availability and integrity of data. Furthermore, TINC could fall victim to cyber-attacks on the integrity of the systems and data (computer viruses, malware, phishing), causing the IT systems to malfunction, making data unavailable and/or allowing unauthorized access to the data.
Similar IT-related risks apply to TINC's participations.
As a company listed on Euronext Brussels, TINC is subject to regulations regarding information requirements, transparency reporting, takeover bids, corporate governance and insider trading. Compliance or non-compliance with these regulations can lead to legal sanctions, higher operational costs and stricter supervision, which can have an impact on the share price. In addition, volatility in the financial markets can impact the value of TINC shares. Although TINC strives to systematically create long-term shareholder value, price fluctuations may occur in the shorter term.
TINC often holds investments in participations in the form of subordinated loans (in combination with equity investments or on a stand-alone basis), which have a lower ranking than the other debts of those participations. In the event of liquidity problems at a participation, there is a risk that subordinated loans will not be repaid (in time), as they are only repaid after all other debt obligations have been met.
TINC relies on various counterparties for the success of its investments in Participations, such as financial and operational partners (including subcontractors, public legal entities, customers who generate demand risk, financial institutions and insurers, and external infrastructure users). These counterparties may be unable to meet their contractual obligations, face credit-specific risks from a variety of circumstances such as default, impairment or insolvency, or may require replacement over time. Such events may result in unexpected costs, (non-recoverable) surcharges, limited financial liability amounts, losses or a reduction in expected income for the participations. Holdings often have borrowed money from external creditors. Breaches of financial covenants by holdings could lead to a suspension of payments to TINC and could grant the relevant creditors certain administrative and enforcement rights over the holdings.
Changes in applicable interest rates may also increase the cost of debt financing for the participations and consequently affect the valuation and profitability of the participations.
In investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS), the counterparties are usually public legal entities that can enjoy (limited) immunity from execution, which means their goods cannot be seized, which can have an impact on the expected income for the participations.
A significant portion of the participations is active in a regulated environment (for example energy infrastructure, public-private partnerships and healthcare) and benefits from support schemes (for example green energy certificates). Infrastructure is also subject to specific regulations such as health, safety and environmental rules, tax and accounting rules.
Care institutions such as specialized residences for persons with special needs are subject to specific legal frameworks and risks. The rates charged are regulated, so changes in social and benefit policies can have a negative impact. Any (future and/or retroactive) change, revocation, withdrawal, tightening or stricter enforcement of the aforementioned regulations, policies and support schemes (including energy support systems) may have an impact on income or may entail additional capital expenditure or operating costs (particularly since certain tariffs are regulated), and may therefore affect the expected income from the participations.
Certain portfolio activities also require specific permits and licenses. It is possible that required permits and licenses are not granted, not extended, suspended or revoked by the relevant authorities.
Similar climate- and sustainability-related risks as described above for TINC apply to TINC's participations. Climate change and environmental, social and governance risks that are inaccurately assessed and cannot or will not be mitigated can pose a material risk to certain portfolio companies in terms of
the physical integrity, reputation and operational continuity of their business model. This can have financial consequences, such as higher operational costs and insurance risks, lead to reputational damage and consequently have a negative impact on the valuations of these companies. Physical risks vary from short-term effects due to extreme weather conditions (e.g. damage to assets, disruption of energy production) to long-term effects such as scarcity of raw materials and rising energy costs.
The development, construction and operation of infrastructure can cause disruption and inconvenience, such as noise, dust, vibrations, traffic congestion and other (environmental) effects that can affect local residents and businesses. Such events can lead to complaints, opposition and/or legal claims from local communities, regulatory authorities or other stakeholders. Increased regulatory oversight, public opposition and/or legal action could result in project delays, increased construction and operating costs, changes in construction methods, additional risk mitigation measures and/or suspension or termination of certain activities.
It is possible that the infrastructure is not available or is insufficiently available or produces what could have a negative impact on the valuation of the participations and the cash flows to TINC.
The participations rely to a significant extent on suppliers and subcontractors for their operations, who are carefully selected based on their experience, quality of work, solvency, etc. It is possible that such subcontractors do not or cannot fulfill their obligations for various reasons. Several participations could have called on the same such subcontractor(s). The liability of such subcontractors may be subject to financial limits that do not compensate the actual damage, which can lead to losses for the participations involved. Where possible, the necessary insurance is taken out to cover business interruptions, for example, but it is possible that this is not sufficient.
In the healthcare sector, there is a risk of difficulties arising with regard to maintaining an appropriate quality of service and recruiting and retaining expert healthcare personnel, which could have a negative impact on the image and growth prospects of the healthcare institution or on the cost structure.
TINC holds interests in participations that are active in renewable energy, such as solar energy, on-shore and offshore wind farms and energy storage systems. The power production of solar installations and wind farms depends, among other things, on the intensity of the sun and the wind speed, which can fluctuate over time. Such fluctuations will have an impact on the income from the participations and consequently on the cash flows to TINC.
Once operational and during the lifespan of a participation, it cannot be ruled out that the infrastructure or certain components will show defects and will not be (fully) available, requiring replacement or a major refurbishing. Although the responsibility for this lies largely with the parties that the participations rely on for the realization and maintenance of the infrastructure, it is possible that these parties do not solve certain technical problems for technical, organizational or financial reasons, which can negatively affect the results of the participations.
The portfolio contains participations whose earnings model depends on demand from customers and care recipients or where the earnings model is subject to evolutions in pricing (e.g. electricity prices). There will always be a risk that the degree of use of the infrastructure and thus the revenues from such participations will be different than expected.
Results
TINC has acquired interests and may acquire interests in participations with infrastructure or assets in a development or construction phase. TINC may provide financing for these participations from the early development phase, while the cash flows from these participations usually only come in at a later stage when the infrastructure is operational. Associated risks include potential cost overruns and delays in completion (many of which are often caused by factors over which TINC has no direct control), development costs incurred for design and research, with no guarantee that the development will reach completion.
When TINC considers investing in infrastructure development, it will make certain estimates of the economic, market and other conditions, including estimates of the (operational and other) costs and the (potential) value of the infrastructure. These estimates may prove to be incorrect. Contracts for investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS) often require the infrastructure to be in a predetermined condition at the end of its lifespan, and the actual costs of meeting this obligation are often difficult to calculate or predict. If the risk of complying with the requirement to return the infrastructure in the agreed condition lies with the participant, the associated costs may be higher than expected. Even if this risk has been passed on to subcontractors, there is a risk that the subcontractor will not fulfill the required obligations.
In investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS), contracts generally give the relevant counterparty from the public sector the right to terminate the agreement under certain circumstances. If this happens, it may be that (the lack of) a financial settlement does not meet the predetermined return or affects the invested amount. This is the case, for example, in certain scenarios (e.g. war or terrorist acts) where only the nominal value of the equity is compensated.
TINC shares
On 22 May 2024, a distribution of €30.5 million (€8.4 million in dividend and €22.1 million in capital reduction) was paid to shareholders for the previous financial year (ended 31 December 2023). This was a distribution of €0.84 per share, and consists of a dividend of €0.23 per share (27.4% of the distribution) and a €0.61 capital reduction per share (72.6% of the total distributed amount). TINC intends to distribute a gross amount of € 21,1 million or €0.58 per share for the financial year ended 31 December 2024. This represents an annualised increase of 3.6% relative to the distribution for the previous financial year. It is expected to be distributed in May 2025, after the general meeting has approved the distribution.
The total number of issued shares is 36,363,637 at the end of the financial year.

Corporate governance
This corporate governance statement contains the information required by the Belgian Companies and Associations Code (the "WVV") and the 2020 Belgian Corporate Governance Code for Listed Companies (the "2020 Code").
TINC uses the 2020 Code as a reference code for the organisation of its corporate governance structure, as required by law. The 2020 Code has been published in the Belgian Official Gazette and can also be found at: www.corporategovernancecommittee.be.
TINC has set out the main aspects of its corporate governance policy in the Corporate Governance Charter, which can be found on TINC's website (www. tincinvest.com), along with other regulations and codes of conduct, and is freely available at TINC's registered office.
Belgian listed companies must comply with the 2020 Code, but – with the exception of the accounting principles – may deviate from the provisions and guidelines, as long as they indicate this and give the reasons for doing so in the corporate governance statement (the 'comply or explain' principle).
During the past financial year ending 31 December 2024, TINC applied the Corporate Governance Code, but in view of the specific situation of TINC, deviated from the following recommendations:
• Provisions 2.11 and 4.18 of the 2020 Code state that the Supervisory Board shall determine the remuneration policy for non-executive directors and members of executive management and that the remuneration committee shall make proposals to the board regarding the remuneration policy for and annual appraisal of non-executive directors and members of executive management.
TINC Manager receives remuneration from TINC as the sole director under the articles of association. Within TINC Manager itself, the members of the Supervisory Board receive remuneration but the members of the Executive Board do not; they receive remuneration within TDP NV. For that reason, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee only advises on the remuneration policy for TINC Manager's directors and the remuneration policy only describes the remuneration scheme for directors (provision 7.7.).
• Provisions 4.17 (by reference to the WVV) and 4.19 of the Code state that the remuneration and appointments committee should consist of a majority of independent non-executive directors.
Since June 2024, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee has comprised two independent directors and two non-executive directors, pending a possible reorganisation following the change in the shareholder and management structure of TINC (see below).
Regarding the applicable legal framework, TINC is a holding company as defined in article 3, 48° of the Belgian Act of 19 April 2014 on alternative collective investment undertakings and their managers, and as such is not subject to the provisions of this act.
The table below shows the shareholder structure of TINC, based on transparency notifications received:
| Shareholder (31/12/2024) | Number of shares |
% |
|---|---|---|
| Infravest NV | 7,753,604 | 21.32 |
| Other shares | 28,610,033 | 78.68 |
| Total | 36,363,637 | 100.00 |
In accordance with the provision of the act of 2 May 2007 (the "Transparency Act"), the articles of association of TINC provide for the legal thresholds for transparency notifications (5% and multiples of 5% of total voting rights).
During the past financial year, TINC received dated transparency notifications on 26 August 2024, which show that (i) Infravest holds 21.32% of the voting rights of the Company, as a result of the acquisition of shares on 23 August 2024, (ii) Belfius Insurance no longer holds shares in the Company, and (iii) Gimv no longer directly holds shares in the Company. Infravest, a 100% subsidiary of Gimv at the closing date of the past financial year, has thus exceeded the 20% participation threshold.
Transparency notifications can be viewed on the TINC website (www.tincinvest.com).
The Company's shares are freely transferable and all have the same rights, with no restrictions under the articles of association on the exercise of voting rights.
At the end of the financial year, the capital of TINC under the articles of association amounted to €113,268,771.34 represented by 36,363,637 shares. A capital reduction took place during the financial year (May 2024). Capital was reduced by €22,181,818.57 without cancellation of existing shares. No other securities were issued that could affect the capital or number of shares. All shares are shares with voting rights.
By resolution of the extraordinary general meeting held on 21 October 2020, the board's authorisation was renewed to increase the share capital of TINC by an amount equal to at most the share capital through contributions in cash, in kind or by conversion of reserves, share premiums or by issuing convertible bonds and warrants for 5 years from the date of publication of this authorisation (i.e. until 16 November 2025). The board may limit or cancel the preferential right. The Company did not use this authorisation during the last financial year.
The resolution of the extraordinary general meeting held on 21 October 2020 also renewed the board's authorisation to proceed with the acquisition, pledge or disposal of shares of the Company for five years from the date of publication of this authorisation (i.e. until 16 November 2025), without the general meeting's prior approval. This can be done at a price per share that may not be lower than 80% nor higher than 120% of the closing share price of the day before the date of the transaction, and up to a maximum of twenty per cent of the total number of issued shares.
The Company did not make use of this authorisation during the past financial year.
The ordinary annual general meeting will be held in accordance with the Company's articles of association on the third Wednesday of May at 10 am. In 2025, this will be on 21 May.
The rules for convening, attending, conducting the meeting, exercising voting rights and other details are set out in the Company's Articles of Association and the Corporate Governance Charter, both of which can be viewed on the Company's website(www.tincinvest.com).
88 TINC 2024 Annual Report
Corporate governance
The shares of TINC have been listed on the continuous stocks index of Euronext Brussels (ISIN code BE0974282148) since 12 May 2015.
Financial services are provided by Belfius Bank.
TINC works to maintain share liquidity by participating in investor roadshows and events with both institutional and retail investors. TINC also maintains proper communication with analysts monitoring the share price. During the past financial year, these included analysts from Kepler Cheuvreux, Degroof Petercam, KBC Securities and the Flemish Federation of Investors (VFB). TINC has also appointed KBC Securities as a liquidity provider with a view to monitoring a sufficiently active market in TINC shares by maintaining adequate liquidity in normal market conditions.
The website of TINC contains a separate section with information intended for the investors and shareholders of TINC (www.tincinvest.com).
TINC is a public limited company under Belgian law with a sole director.
TINC Manager NV has been appointed as director under the articles of association for an indefinite term.

Organisational structure
Corporate governance
TINC's articles of association appoint TINC Manager as the sole director (the "Director under the articles of association"). TINC Manager is a public limited company under Belgian law whose shares are held by TDP NV, a partnership originally founded by Gimv and Belfius.
In accordance with Article 2:55, paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Companies and Associations Code, the Director under the articles of association has appointed Mr Manu Vandenbulcke, chair of the management board, as its permanent representative.
The Director under the articles of association has a two-tier board, composed of a supervisory board and a management board that together exercise the mandate of sole director under the articles of association of TINC.
In carrying out their mandate, the Supervisory Board and the Executive Board of TINC Manager act in accordance with the corporate governance rules applicable to listed companies. Within TINC Manager's Supervisory Board, two committees have been established: the Audit Committee and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee.
On the date of this annual report, the Supervisory Board of TINC Manager, as Director under the articles of association, comprises seven directors, three of whom are independent directors, and four non-executive directors. The four
non-executive directors are appointed in accordance with the Articles of Association of the Director under the articles of association on the nomination of Gimv and Belfius (or a company in their group to which the shares would have been transferred), each of which has the right to nominate candidates for two non-executive directors of the Supervisory Board of the Director under the articles of association, as long as they together hold at least 10% of the voting rights in TINC. If the combined shareholding of Gimv and Belfius Bank falls below 10% of the voting rights in TINC, they will each relinquish their respective rights in respect of one of the two directors. This will result in Gimv and Belfius Bank each being able to nominate candidates for only one more directorship at the General Meeting of Shareholders of the Director under the articles of association. In that case, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, under the supervision of the chair of the Supervisory Board, can identify, recommend and nominate candidate members, for appointment by the general meeting of shareholders of two new directors.
The Supervisory Board also consists of three directors who meet the criteria for independence in accordance with Article 7:87 of the Companies and Associations Code and the 2020 Code.
The current composition reflects the diversity policy in terms of competencies, backgrounds, ages and genders. Directors' backgrounds include auditing, academic, banking, investment and/or corporate. Three of the seven directors have a different gender from the other directors.
TINC believes that bringing together people with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives leads to a broader and more creative approach to problems and decision-making. Together with the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, the Supervisory Board monitors diversity,

in particular when recommending the appointment and reappointment of directors to TINC Manager's shareholder.
Directors are appointed for a maximum term of four years in accordance with the articles of association (without prejudice to the possibility of reappointment).
The mandates of two directors, notably that of Ms Helga Van Peer and Mr Philip Maeyaert, ended in June 2024. On the advice of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and the recommendation of the Supervisory Board in accordance with the Corporate Governance Charter, Mr Philip Maeyaert was
reappointed as director by the general meeting of the Director under the articles of association, TINC Manager. He was also reappointed as chair of the Supervisory Board and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee.
At the close of the past financial year, the Supervisory Board of the Director under the articles of association is composed as follows:
| Name | Year of birth | Job title | Term | Committees |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Philip Maeyaert | 1961 | Independent director - chair | 2027 | Chair of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee |
| Kathleen Defreyn | 1970 | Independent director | 2027 | Chair of the Audit Committee |
| Martine De Rouck | 1956 | Non-executive director | 2026 | |

TINC Manager's Articles of Association have also expressly granted the Supervisory Board the authority to take decisions on investments, divestments and capital operations of companies already in the investment portfolio.
During the past financial year, the Supervisory Board met five times – four regular meetings and one ad hoc meeting – to exercise its mandate as Director under the articles of association of TINC. The attendance of directors at meetings and committees is shown in the remuneration report.
At its meetings in the past financial year, the Supervisory Board mainly considered the following issues:
• monitoring the regulatory framework applicable to the company;
• proposals related to the composition of the Supervisory Board to the shareholder of the Director under the articles of association;
The application of the conflict of interest procedure on the part of individual directors or related parties was not addressed during the discussion of these subjects.
The Supervisory Board periodically reviews its composition, functioning and effectiveness. This was last done in the financial year ending 31 December 2023.
The Supervisory Board has two internal committees: the Audit Committee and the Appointments and Remuneration Committee.
The Audit Committee consists of one independent director and two nonexecutive directors of the Director under the articles of association. It is chaired by an independent director who is not the chair of the Supervisory Board. In the past financial year, the Audit Committee consisted of the chair, Kathleen Defreyn, Marc Vercruysse and Peter Vermeiren. A chair with years of accounting and auditing experience as CFO of various companies, and other members with banking or CFO backgrounds, gives the Audit Committee the experience and expertise it needs to fulfil its role.
The Audit Committee meets to announce results and as and when required. TINC publishes its results twice a year (half-yearly and annual results). The Audit Committee therefore met twice, and was fully attended on each occasion. No ad hoc meetings were held.
The Audit Committee deliberated on the process of financial reporting and valuation of the investment portfolio both for the half-year and annual results, and the independence of the auditor. The company's auditor attended the discussion of the half-yearly and annual reports and shared with the committee his findings on the audit process for each of these reports.
At the end of the last financial year, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee was composed of two independent directors and two nonexecutive directors, pending a possible reorganisation following the change in the shareholder and management structure of TINC. During the past financial year, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee consisted of Philip Maeyaert (chair), Elvira Haezendonck, Helga Van Peer (until 15 June), Marc Vercruysse and Peter Vermeiren.
During the past financial year, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee met three times, fully attended on each occasion (except for one meeting where members whose reappointment was under discussion abstained from the deliberations). The Appointments and Remuneration Committee discussed the draft remuneration report in accordance with Article 3:6, §3 of the WVV, the evaluation of the Supervisory Board and its committees, the composition of the Board in light of the appointment and reappointment of directors and compliance with the corporate governance code.
The Executive Board consists of at least three members, who may not be directors. Members are appointed and dismissed by the Supervisory Board, on the advice of the CEO (except for themselves), for an indefinite term.
The Executive Board, in executing the mandate of TINC Manager as Director under the articles of association, is authorised to perform all acts necessary or conducive to achieving the object of the company that are not reserved to the Supervisory Board by law or the Articles of Association. TINC Manager's articles of association, for example, state that the power to take decisions on investments, divestments and capital operations of companies already in the investment portfolio is vested in the Supervisory Board.
The chair of the Executive Board is the CEO, who heads the Executive Board and is responsible for its organisation and proper functioning. Each member of the Executive Board has specific duties and responsibilities, notwithstanding the fact that the Executive Board is a collegial body and has collective responsibility.
On the date of this annual report, the Executive Board is composed as follows:
Manu Vandenbulcke obtained a law degree from KU Leuven in 1995, an LLM from the University of Stellenbosch (South Africa) in 1997 and postgraduate degrees in Real Estate (1999) and Economics (2000) from KU Leuven.

TINC relies on TDP NV for the support of its investment activities and the management of its investment portfolio. TDP NV develops, manages and invests in infrastructure, has Belfius and Gimv had Belfius and Gimv and for the future Infravest as its shareholders (see organisational structure p. 88) as shareholders and is also the shareholder of TINC Manager, the sole director of TINC under the articles of association. TINC has entered into two service agreements with TDP for this purpose.
Under this agreement, TDP NV is responsible for providing support services such as proposing and analysing investment opportunities, coordinating the implementation of investment decisions and following up on the legal, tax and financial matters related to holding the investments in the investment portfolio.
TDP can delegate this to its employees; see also the section on Sustainability later in this annual report.
For its services under the investment services agreement, TDP receives an annual fee consisting of (i) a fixed amount (indexed) and (ii) a variable amount of 0.75% of the outstanding investments, i.e. the sum of the amounts: (a) actually invested, (b) committed to be invested (c) paid as transaction costs; less any refunds received or impairments (under BGAAP) relating to such investments.1
TDP also takes care of TINC's administration (including accounting and reporting, corporate housekeeping, communications and investor relations) under an Administrative Services Agreement for which TINC pays a fixed annual fee (indexed)..1
In addition to the aforementioned service agreements, TINC has also entered into a cooperation agreement with TDP NV.
The cooperation agreement provides for TDP to act as a central platform for investment opportunities and contains principles regarding the allocation of investment opportunities. TINC can invest in 50% of each investment opportunity centralised at TDP. The remaining 50% of such an investment opportunity is available for investment by TDP and/or by TDP affiliates.
The cooperation agreement aims to create a synergy resulting in a stronger market position on infrastructure investment. Among other things, it allows for larger investment opportunities through co-investment.
The legal procedure for conflicts of interest is applied to the extent that investment opportunities for TINC involve the acquisition of participations directly from TDP or its associates.
1 For amounts paid under this agreement, see the Financial statements section, p.140.
98 TINC 2024 Annual Report
The statutory maximum term of EY Bedrijfsrevisoren BV's auditor's mandate expired at the general meeting of 15 May 2024.
The general meeting on 15 May 2024 subsequently appointed BDO Bedrijfsrevisoren BV, represented by Ms Veerle Catry, as company auditor. The mandate comes to an end after the annual general meeting to approve the financial statements as at 31 December 2026.
Total fees of BDO in respect of the past financial year amounted to € 137.869 composed of fees for the exercise of the statutory auditor's mandate for TINC and its subsidiaries in the amount of € 104.119, other audit related services in the amount of € 1.500 and non-audit services in the amount of € 32.250.
Since the scale of operations does not warrant a full-time position, the Supervisory Board has decided not to create an internal audit function for the time being, but annually assesses the need to do so.
However, this does not alter the fact that TINC, as a listed company, addresses the subject of enterprise risk management. This is a process that involves all parts of the company in identifying potential events that could affect the business. TINC manages these in such a way that they meet the risk appetite to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its corporate objectives (cf. the definition used by COSO, Committee of Sponsoring Organisation of the Treadway Commission).
In line with the COSO framework for enterprise risk management, TINC acts as follows regarding the following categories of corporate objectives:
• Supervision: in line with the Corporate Governance Code, the Supervisory Board has appointed a compliance officer (Bruno Laforce) charged with supervising the Dealing Code (relating to securities issued by TINC) and the internal guidelines and policy documents (Code of Conduct, AML policy, whistleblower policy).
A summary of the main risks TINC is exposed to is described elsewhere in this annual report.
Corporate governance
The Director under the articles of association of TINC is entitled to the annual remuneration set out in the articles of association of TINC, consisting of the following components:
The variable remuneration for the Director under the articles of association for the past financial year amounted to €1.038.694 (see p. 142). The overperformance fee has been in place since the IPO but has not been paid out so far because the conditions have not been met. The dividend portion of the distribution made by TINC each year has never exceeded 4.5% of the issue price at IPO.
The directors of TINC Manager are remunerated by TINC Manager itself based on the remuneration it receives as a Director under the articles of association of TINC (see the previous paragraph). This fee is therefore not directly charged to TINC. The general meeting of TINC Manager decides on this remuneration.
On the recommendation of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, the Supervisory Board adopted the proposal to update the remuneration policy for the Director under the articles of associations as follows:
Directors do not receive remuneration in shares (see 1.1. of this corporate governance statement).
No contracts or arrangements have been entered into by TINC Manager with directors containing specific notice periods, additional pension plans, termination conditions or severance payments.
This remuneration policy is applicable from 1 January 2024 and was established following an evaluation using the latest available Guberna report on the remuneration of non-executive directors at Belgian listed companies on the one hand and, on the other, a comparison with the remuneration policy of a number of companies of a similar size or nature listed on Euronext Belgium.

For the past financial year, the following attendances were recorded and corresponding fees paid:
| Director | Fixed remuneration* | Executive Board | Committees | ||||

The members of the Executive Board do not receive remuneration from TINC Manager for the mandate they perform within TINC Manager; they receive remuneration from TDP NV. Accordingly, no contracts or arrangements have been entered into by TINC Manager with members of the Executive Board that provide specific notice periods, additional pension arrangements, termination conditions or include severance payments.
Sustainability
Infrastructure is the backbone of a modern society, and is often the catalyst for various forms of development - economic, social and personal development. Development is a gradual process and only becomes meaningful if it brings continuous improvement, and if it is anchored in a sustainable philosophy.
TINC is committed to sustainable development by helping to build infrastructure that not only meets the needs of today but also anticipates the needs of future generations. TINC summarises this ambition in its motto: "Invest in the world of tomorrow". Infrastructure that enables sustainable development must itself embrace sustainability. This means that every stage of its lifecycle – from planning and design to operation and eventual decommissioning – must comply with principles that ensures economic, financial, social, environmental and institutional sustainability.1 The core of TINC's sustainability policy is based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN Sustainable Development or UN SDGs), a comprehensive set of goals that aim at sustainable development and are also a reference model (sdgs.un.org/goals).
The investment strategy of TINC is based on four themes, four important pillars underpinning that sustainable development. These include
The portfolio investments of TINC are therefore located in four focus areas, namely Public Infrastructure, Energy Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure and Social Infrastructure.
By investing in these focus areas, TINC, as a long-term investor, contributes to the fulfilment of several of the Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations.
TINC uses the Sustainable Development Goals as a benchmark and has selected the development goals that are most closely related to its activities and on which it can have an impact, either within its own organisation or as a responsible investor through its investment portfolio.

• conducting corporate governance and respecting the rule of law (including through policies on acting with integrity, anti-corruption, etc.) as a responsible investor

TINC recognizes the importance of the EU Green Deal legislation, which includes reporting initiatives such as the EU Taxonomy and CSRD, promoting transparency and sustainable investments. Since TINC is not a large undertaking within the meaning of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, TINC is not (yet) under the application scope of these legislations. TINC follows closely how the application field will evolve in the coming period of time.
Notwithstanding this, TINC is in the process of initiating a voluntarily materiality analysis (in line with the Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) under the CSRD and ESRS framework) mapping both the impact of sustainability factors on its business and the impact of its business on environmental and social factors, in order to enable a more comprehensive view on sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities.
TINC is a listed investment entity whose management is entrusted to a sole director, TINC Manager NV. For a more detailed description, see chapter Corporate Governance Statement).
As a responsible organization, TINC is committed to uphold high ethical standards by preventing corruption, addressing incidents of misconduct, fostering a transparent whistleblowing culture, ensuring compliance with legal regulations, and minimizing risks of unethical behavior across all operations and partnerships.
Thereto in execution of its business ethics programme, members of the supervisory board and the management board of TINC Manager, the statutory director, endorse

For TINC, investing in infrastructure means more than developing essential facilities, it is about creating opportunities for communities to thrive. Guided by its mission to invest in the world of tomorrow, TINC focuses on investments that address society's evolving needs while delivering economic, social, and environmental progress. TINC's investment strategy is built on four segments – energy, public, digital, and social infrastructure – all aimed at creating sustainable value.
These segments are united by overarching principles of fostering a low-carbon world and enhancing societal well-being. By investing in renewable energy projects, TINC actively contributes to decarbonization and supports the transition to a low-carbon economy. Similarly, investments in public utilities, digital infrastructure and sustainable real estate help foster inclusivity, connectivity and resilience.
As a listed infrastructure investment company, TINC thereby seeks to maintain an open and trustworthy relationship with all its stakeholders. In carrying out its activities, TINC implements sustainability both in the deployment of funds in the investment portfolio (assets side) and in the raising of funds (liabilities side). TINC integrates sustainability aspects into its investment processes by applying exclusion criteria, conducting due diligence to assess the sustainability profile of investment opportunities, and performing SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) impact analyses. Additionally, TINC focuses on investments that generate positive, measurable, and sustainable impacts for society while maintaining competitive financial returns.
Through this integrated approach, TINC aligns its efforts with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, contributing to targets such as Affordable and Clean Energy (SDG 7), Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8), and Build Resilient Infrastructure (SDG 9).
By focusing on infrastructure that addresses the challenges of today while anticipating the needs of tomorrow, TINC is committed to building a healthier, more connected, and sustainable future for generations to come.
TINC is actively involved in different phases of the infrastructure lifecycle within in its participations. Each phase has its own dynamics, characteristics and challenges in terms of sustainable and responsible investment.
A new investment in an infrastructure company is preceded by a, usually lengthy, process of careful assessment and consideration of the merits and associated risks. This investment process involves a number of sustainability aspects.

Exclusions
Sustainability
Each new investment opportunity is assessed as to whether it fits within the investment policy of TINC. TINC applies a number of grounds for exclusion. Therefore, in accordance with its sustainability policy, TINC will not allocate investment money to
If no grounds for exclusion apply and TINC considers that the investment potentially fits within the investment policy, in a subsequent phase the investment opportunity is subjected to a thorough investigation ('due diligence').
As part of this due diligence, TINC uses questionnaires to get a view on the sustainability content of the investment opportunity by means of general and sector-specific questions. The analysis of the responses are taken into account by TINC in the final assessment of the investment proposal by the competent bodies.
In addition, for each new investment, an analysis is made of the impact (positive or negative) of the investment on the Sustainable Development Goals. This allows TINC to monitor the impact and take action to prevent negative effects or strengthen positive ones. See [opposite] for an example relating to a recent new investment.

WAARDIG
While holding its participations in the portfolio, TINC pays attention to sustainability aspects specific to or linked to each participation. Where possible, TINC makes use of the central guiding or steering role it often plays in its portfolio companies.
Particularly in participations where TINC is the sole shareholder, TINC generally takes responsibility for the management and administration of the infrastructure company, with the assistance of specialist subcontractors (in operational, financial, legal and administrative matters).
In the participations in which TINC is a co-shareholder, TINC (via its representatives) holds one or more directorships, thus being actively involved in decision-making. Alternatively, in the case of smaller minority participations, agreements are made with other shareholders on participation in major decisions. TINC is not represented in the governing bodies of investments where only debt financing is provided.
In holding its participations TINC is committed as part of its sustainability policy, and where possible, to:
From that active role as director and shareholder, TINC also interacts with its portfolio companies on sustainability to encourage further awareness and action. Driven by its commitment to fostering a data-driven dialogue on sustainability within its portfolio, TINC aims to conduct periodically portfolio surveys to monitor how TINC's commitments are taken up by its participations.
The survey includes a Portfolio Sustainability Questionnaire, evaluating sustainability practices and awareness within the participations, focusing on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) aspects and a GHG Questionnaire, collecting information on the GHG emission profile of the participations. The latter enables a more thorough assessment of environmental impacts across the portfolio.
TINC further enhances the SDG impact analysis of each new investment by tracking its contribution to the SDG targets throughout the investment phase. The graph below provides an overview of the contributions of TINC's participations to fulfilling the UN SDGs.
* www.undg.org/sustainable-development-goals

In the past financial year, a growing number of participations took steps to measure their GHG emissions, with a view to examining opportunities to reduce them. Some initial observations can already be made:
• GHG emissions are of course unavoidable in infrastructure construction, both as a result of the production of the required materials and during the construction process.
• In other, more corporate style, participations, there is more ability to use governance rights and to collaborate directly with management and staff in these companies to introduce GHG measuring and subsequently implement GHG reducing measures, where possible and economically viable.
Sustainability
TINC aims to hold investments over a longer period, if possible over the full lifetime of the underlying infrastructure. There are no participations whose infrastructure will reach the end of its useful life in the immediate future. TINC intends to develop a policy on this in the coming period. To the extent that divestments do occur, for example through the sale of a participation, the divestment process is surrounded by adequate safeguards, including the application of anti-money laundering and terrorist financing policies.
TINC has taken steps towards sustainability in terms of its funding needed for the further growth of the portfolio. TINC has developed a framework for raising debt financing of a sustainable nature for investments within the investment policy and focus areas of TINC (the 'Sustainable Finance Framework'). The aim is to make investments that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically with regard to social and environmental aspects.
The Sustainable Finance Framework ('SFF') was prepared in line with the ICMA Green Bond Principles 2021, the Social Bond Principles 2021, the Sustainability Bond Guidelines 2021 and the LMA Green Loan Principles 2021 and Social Loan Principles 2021. The framework of the SFF was reviewed by an independent organisation (ISS Corporate Services).
Based on the SFF, TINC can issue debt instruments such as commercial paper, debt securities, loans, bonds, etc. specifically intended for investments of a sustainable nature.
As of the end of the last financial year, TINC has not made use yet of this framework to issue debt instruments.
In carrying out its activities, TINC enters into a dialogue with various stakeholders, aiming for transparent communication and a mutually enriching exchange of views to promote cooperation. This includes amongst others sustainability topics.
| Interested party (stakeholder) | Description of the interaction |
|---|---|
| Shareholders | TINC interacts with its shareholders; it does so not only at the annual general meeting, open to all shareholders, but also with institutional shareholders (at roadshows) and private investors at fairs or investor days. |
| Supervisory Board | TINC has a sole director with a dual board structure (see Corporate Governance Statement). This structure, and the fact that the Supervisory Board also has the authority for investment decisions, ensures good interaction between the directors, with their diversity of backgrounds, experience and skills, and the members of the Management Board in whose hands the operational responsibility lies. |
| Participations | In most participations, TINC is represented on the board of directors, where it interacts with the other directors and shareholders. |
| Debt financiers | TINC has provided for the possibility to raise sustainable debt financing through the independently reviewed Sustainable Finance Framework. The companies in the portfolio generally obtain debt financing from various banks or banking syndicates. Contacts with them are maintained via, among other things, periodic and ad hoc reporting. |
| Financial institutions | TINC and its investees communicate frequently with the financial institutions with which they have relationships, including within the framework of money laundering prevention rules. |
| Sector organisations and interest groups |
TINC keeps in touch with what is happening in the infrastructure sector and attaches importance to the exchange of ideas; TINC and/or TDP are members of the BVBV (Belgian association of listed companies), GLIO (Global Listed Infrastructure Organisation) WEI (Windenergy Ireland), IBEC (Irish Business and Employers' Confederation),IPFA (International Project Finance Association), BVA (Belgian Venture Capital and Private Equity Association), and the Guberna Institute, among others. |
| Government and administration | As a listed company, TINC falls under the supervision of the FSMA and maintains regular contacts. |
| Analysts | Following the announcement of the half-year and annual results and other press releases, TINC maintains a regular and proper relationship with the analysts monitoring the stock. |


Rating agencies regularly review TINC, offering investors insight into the sustainability aspects they consider important. TINC will, where useful and possible, interact with such rating agencies to promote the most accurate and complete representation of sustainability characteristics.
Since 2022 TINC/TDP is a signatory to the United Nations Principles of Responsible Investment (UNPRI), a not for profit organization aiming to understand the investment implications of sustainability (ESG) factors and to support its international network of signatories in incorporating these factors into their investment and ownership decisions.
During the past financial year, TINC/TDP reported under the reporting framework resulting in a first Public Assessment Report. The report can be consulted on the website of TINC (www.tincinvest.com).

Storm is a Belgian developer and operator of renewable energy projects and has the ambition to continue to accelerate the energy transition in Belgium.

The consolidated financial statements of TINC NV (hereinafter "TINC") for the 12-month financial year ended December 31, 2024 were approved for publication by resolution of the Statutory Director on March 10, 2025. TINC is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Belgium, whose shares are publicly traded. Its registered office is located at Karel Oomsstraat 37, 2018 Antwerp, Belgium.
TINC is an investment company that takes interest in participations active in the realisation and operation of infrastructure.
The consolidated financial statements of TINC have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the European Union.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, TINC continues to apply IFRS 10 (Consolidated Financial Statements) for investment entities as TINC continues to meet the definition of an investment entity. TINC measures all participations at their fair value through profit and loss (FVPL) in accordance with IFRS 9 (Financial Instruments).
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investments at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL). The consolidated financial statements are presented in euro, the functional currency of TINC, and all values are rounded to the nearest euro, except where stated otherwise. TINC presents its balance sheet in order of non-current and current assets and liabilities.
Upon first-time adoption of IFRS as approved by the European Union, TINC considered the application of the amendments to IFRS 10 (Consolidated Financial Statements), IFRS 12 (Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities) and IAS 27 (Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements) regarding investment entities (the "Amendments") and concluded that TINC meets the definition of an investment entity as defined within IFRS 10. For the financial year ending December 31, 2024, this continues to be the case.
Under IFRS 10, an investment entity is an entity that:
When assessing whether an entity meets the definition of an investment entity, it should consider whether it has the following typical characteristics of an investment entity:
TINC has adopted the Amendments since the financial year ended December 31, 2014 as a result of an assessment based on the following facts:
The latter is the case with respect to all DBFM/PPS participations (where the infrastructure will return to the public government at the end of the project's life) and also for the energy participations (where the infrastructure will revert to the landowner at the end of the project's life or will be removed) and to a large extent for the Digital Infrastructure and Social Infrastructure participations.
In addition, with respect to the last two segments (Digital Infrastructure and Social Infrastructure), and specifically where it concerns participations with a more business-like organization and approach (i.e. not a pure project finance approach) and which have other shareholders in addition to TINC, TINC enters into agreements with these co-shareholders (often with a shorter-term approach to the participation in question) which generally also include agreements regarding the transfer of the financial instruments of the participation and a possible exit, common or otherwise. This can be very specific, e.g. with a time provision, or left more open as a function of circumstances and internal or market dynamics.
As a result, TINC, as an investment entity, values all of its investments (including subsidiaries thereof that it controls and joint ventures) at fair value through profit and loss (FVPL) in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
Fair value is calculated by discounting the future cash flows related to each of the participations of TINC, and generated by the companies in which TINC participates, at an appropriate discount rate. The discount rates used are based on market discount rates for similar assets, adjusted by an appropriate premium or discount to reflect specific risks.
See below ("Financial Fixed Assets") for more information around valuation.
Borrowing costs are recognized in the income statement as incurred.
TINC, as an investment entity under IFRS 10, measures all investments (including its controlled subsidiaries and joint ventures and associates) at their fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.
The fair value of participations is determined semi-annually. The definition of fair value under IFRS 13 is: "The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a regular transaction between market participants at the valuation date." In the absence of an active market for the financial instruments in which TINC invests, proprietary valuation models are used for its participations. TINC follows the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines. The valuation methods are applied consistently from period to period unless a change would result in a better estimate of fair value.
All current purchases and sales of financial fixed assets are recognized on transaction date. A current purchase or sale of a financial fixed asset requires delivery of the asset within the time frame generally accepted in the market as a result of regulation or commercial practice.
The fair value or 'Fair Value' ('FV') of the investments are recognized under the item 'Investments at fair value through profit or loss'. In the case of a recent investment, initially the transaction value is used as fair value, with transaction costs recorded separately in the income statement.
Changes in fair value are recognized in the income statement as unrealized gain or loss.
When a participation is sold, the gain or loss on the sale – calculated as the difference between the selling price after any selling costs to be borne by TINC and the fair value on the balance sheet at the beginning of the financial year – is recognized as a realized gain or loss in the income statement.
When TINC grants a loan to a company without participating in the capital, this loan is also valued at fair value and included in the item 'Investments at fair value through profit or loss'.
TINC uses the following hierarchy in determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments, by valuation method used.
All of the participations of TINC are classified as Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in infrastructure are usually characterized by good visibility on future cash flows. This is because of the presence of long-term agreements, a regulated framework and/or the strategic position of the infrastructure. Because of this high visibility on future cash flows, the Discounted Cash Flow method (DCF method) is applied for the periodic valuation for most participations. This involves identifying future long-term cash flows for each participation, such as revenues, costs, investments, and repayments of debt financing. In this way, the expected long-term cash flows that TINC will receive from the participation are also determined in relation to the investment of TINC, including the participation in the equity of a participation and shareholder loans or loans to a participation.
The expected long-term future cash flows related to the participations of TINC are discounted per participation at a market-based discount rate. This is how the fair value of each participation in TINC is determined. The market-based discount rate depends on the risk profile of the participation on the one hand and the investment instruments at TINC on the other. The profile of a company active in infrastructure is determined, among other things, by the possible fluctuations in revenues and costs, the presence and robustness of long-term contracts and the quality of the counterparties thereto, and the refinancing risk of debt financing. Recent transactions between market participants can provide an indication of a market-based discount rate.
At each periodic valuation update, the expected long-term cash flows per participation, and linked to this the expected long-term cash flows related to the investment instruments at TINC, are updated, among others using recent financial figures and updated assumptions. The discount rate per participation is also reviewed periodically and adjusted if necessary.
For some participations a different valuation methodology may be applied, temporarily or otherwise, to determine the fair value of the participation at TINC for specific reasons. Where applicable, this is mentioned in the notes to the Financial Fixed Assets.
In case of an investment in the equity of a portfolio company, where investments are made in both share capital and shareholder loans of the portfolio company, all expected future cash flows related to both investment instruments together are discounted at a market-based discount rate. As TINC is an investment company as defined by IFRS 10, it measures its shareholder loans at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9. Interests on shareholder loans are thus recognized under interests received, on the one hand, and changes in fair value, including capitalized interests, on the other hand. Moreover, TINC considers the investment in the share capital and in the shareholder loan of a portfolio company as a 'single unit of account', as both investment instruments are inextricably linked. Decisions on the acquisition and disposal of both instruments are not taken independently and both instruments have the same risk profile.
The valuation process, like the preparation of the financial statements of TINC, is observed by the finance function at TDP NV (see p. 99) under the direction of the responsible member of the Executive Board and under the supervision of the Audit Committee.
The starting point is the financial models prepared for each participation, which contain a detailed projection of the expected cash flows based on underlying assumptions. These financial models are typically subject to a model audit by an independent party at the inception of the investment. During the lifetime of the infrastructure, at each closing of TINC, the financial models are brought in line with recent developments that would occur in the underlying assumptions
(due to market evolutions or evolutions at the participation itself). The valuation is then done using the DCF method based on a discount rate.
The results for each reporting period are discussed with the members of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee then reports to the Supervisory Board, which ultimately finalizes the financial statements based on the valuations.
Other non-current and current assets are measured at amortized cost.
Current taxes are based on the results of TINC and are calculated according to local tax rules.
Deferred taxes are recorded using the liability method for all temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying values for financial reporting purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recorded for deductible temporary differences.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for tax losses and tax credits to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the tax losses and tax credits can be utilized.
Cash and cash equivalents are cash, bank deposits and liquid assets. These include all cash held in cash or on bank deposit. Accordingly, these products are shown at face value.
Provisions are recognized when TINC has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past events, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
obligation and when a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. If TINC expects a reimbursement of an amount that has been provided for, the reimbursement is not recorded as an asset until the reimbursement is virtually certain.
Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, loans and borrowings are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method
Dividends are recognized on the date on which TINC receives the rights to their payment. Dividends are presented gross, excluding non-recoverable taxes. The latter are presented separately in the income statement.
TINC calculates both basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with IAS 33. Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the financial year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated according to the average number of shares outstanding during the financial year plus the dilutive effect of warrants and stock options (if any) outstanding during the financial year
TINC typically incurs several costs when issuing or acquiring its equity instruments. Those costs may include registration and other regulatory fees, amounts paid to legal, accounting and other professional advisors, printing costs and stamp duties. For Belgian tax purposes, certain transaction costs related to the issuance or acquisition of equity instruments may be capitalized and amortized over a period of time, as permitted by Belgian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (BE GAAP). This difference in accounting treatment between IFRS and BE GAAP creates a temporary difference, resulting in a deferred tax asset.
As the underlying transaction relates to equity, the deferred tax asset arising from this temporary difference is recognized in equity.
Other costs related to public offerings of equity instruments (such as road shows and other marketing initiatives) are expensed.
Operating segments are reported consistently with internal reporting to the chief operating decision-maker, being the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the results of the operating segments. Currently there are 4 segments, Public Infrastructure, Energy Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure and Social Infrastructure.
TINC has adopted during the current financial year all new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the IASB, as endorsed by the European Union and effective for the financial year starting on January 1, 2024. TINC has not applied any new IFRS guidance that is not yet effective as of December 31, 2024.
The following new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the IASB and the IFRIC, as endorsed by the European Union, are effective for the current financial year:
The adoption of these new Standards, Interpretations and Amendments did not result in significant changes in the accounting policies of TINC.
TINC has elected not to early adopt the following new Standards, Interpretations and Amendments, which have been issued by the IASB and the IFRIC but which were not yet mandatory by December 31, 2024 and/or not yet endorsed by the European Union by December 31, 2024, and whose impact could be relevant:
The above new and revised Standards and Interpretations, which have not been applied in these financial statements, are not expected to have a material impact on subsequent periods, except with respect to IFRS 18 for which TINC is currently analyzing the potential impact.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements involves making estimates and assumptions that affect financial statement amounts.

* Two or more investors jointly control a participation when they must act together to direct the relevant activities. Because no investor can direct the activities without the cooperation of the others, in such cases no investor individually controls the investee company.
A summary of contractual obligations or current investment commitments to provide financial or other support to its subsidiaries and associates is provided in Note 24: Off-balance sheet commitments.
TINC receives payments and distributions from its participations in the form of dividends, interest and fees, and in the form of repayments of capital and repayments of shareholder loans and loans.
Restrictions may apply to the ability of participations to make payments or distributions to TINC. These restrictions may result from general corporate law provisions on distributions, or from agreements contained in financing agreements. Restrictions on distributions may also result from working capital or investment needs of the participations. TINC takes these possible restrictions into account in its projections of future cash flows that form the basis for valuing its participations. Specific yet unidentified events may lead to additional restrictions on payments or distributions and are not yet included in the current projection of future cash flows. A change in valuation rules, practices or guidelines relevant to TINC or its participations may also reduce or delay future cash flows to TINC.
As of December 31, 2024, there are no additional material constraints.
TINC reports its investment activities according to four segments. Management reporting also follows this structure in accordance with the requirements under IFRS 8. There are no transactions between segments.
The four segments concern:
Zelfstroom. Within this segment, a distinction is also made between equity investments and loan investments.
An overview of the evolution of the fair value of the portfolio by segment can be found in Note 17.
The portfolio of TINC can be divided into project infrastructure and corporate infrastructure.
Project infrastructure is characterized by the following features:
Corporate infrastructure is characterized by the following features:
The table above on page 130 lists for each participation whether it is project or corporate infrastructure, respectively.

The portfolio result can be defined as the total of a) interest, dividends, fees b) realized gains minus realized losses on realization of investments and c) unrealized gains minus unrealized losses from financial fixed assets. The net unrealized result represents the change in value of the portfolio during the past financial year without taking into account investments in new or existing participations or repayments from participations. This change in value is the sum of the individual changes in value per participation and is the result of updated discount rates and updated generic and specific assumptions that form the basis for the expected cash flows from the participations, also taking into account changes in the time value of these cash flows.
The tables below show the various components of the portfolio result.

The total portfolio result was €50,748,260 (or a portfolio yield of 10.84%), a decrease of €10,759,070 compared to the previous financial year that covered 18 months. This portfolio result is the net result of several elements:

|---|---|---|---|
| Interest Income | 1 | 7,795,253 | 11,745,044 |
| Dividend Income | 1 | 20,989,812 | 35,634,123 |
| Fees | 1 | 1,407,980 | 1,207,033 |
| TOTAL | 30,193,045 | 48,586,200 |
The sum of interest, dividends and fees from participations during the past financial year amounts to €30,193,045. This is a decrease of €18,393,156 compared to the previous financial year. This decrease is largely due to the extended financial year 2022-2023 which included 18 months.
Dividends received amounted to €20,989,812, a decrease of €14,644,310 compared to the previous financial year covering 18 months. In addition to the regular receipts of dividends within the participations of TINC, higher dividends were received as a result of higher power prices in the past.
Interest income amounted to €7,795,253, down €3,949,791 from the previous financial year covering 18 months. Interest income includes (i) capitalized interest included in the fair value of participations and (ii) interest either received in cash or scheduled to be received in cash shortly after the end of the last financial year.
The fees amounted to €1,407,980, an increase over the previous financial year. This sum consists of fees from participations including mandate fees or fees from transactions. TINC received a number of specific additional fees from a number of participations because of a number of guarantees it provides. In addition, the subordinated loan to Northwind was repaid early in August 2024, which resulted in an additional fee.

During the past financial year, €37,785,261 was invested in existing and new participations: Storm Group, Hortus Conclusus, SPI.R0, GlasDraad, NGE Fibre, De Haan Vakantiehuizen, Garagepark and Yally.
Over the past financial year, TINC received €13,921,916 as part of repayments of invested capital from the following participations: Berlare Wind, Kreekraksluis, Nobelwind, Northwind (full repayment of subordinated loan), Storm Wind Belgium, Zelfstroom, A15 Maasvlakte-Vaanplein, Brabo 1, L'Hourgnette, Social Housing Ireland, Via A11, Via R4 Ghent, NGE Fibre and Obelisc.
The net unrealized increase in fair value of €18,046,715 over the past financial year consists of €39,075,133 unrealized income and €21,028,418 unrealized expenses.
The remaining amount of €1,803,306 represents an increase in the outstanding amount of portfolio income already acquired at the end of the reporting period but not yet received.
TINC uses the following hierarchy in determining and disclosing the fair market value of financial instruments, by valuation method used.

| Investment portfolio | - | - | 468,356,669 | 468,356,669 |
All participations of TINC are classified as Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. All participations, except SPI.R0, Hortus Conclusus and Yally are valued using a discounted cash flow model, whereby the expected future cash flows of the participations that benefit TINC are discounted at a market-based discount rate. This valuation technique was consistently used for all investments. For SPI.R0 and Hortus Conclusus, the transaction price is considered the fair value.
The fair value of the participation in Yally is determined by the value of Yally's real estate portfolio on the one hand, and the net sum of the other balance sheet items on the asset and liability sides of the consolidated group on the other hand, taking into account the percentage of shares held by TINC in Yally. To determine the value of Yally's real estate, the average of two valuation techniques is taken.
The fair value of Datacenter United at the end of the past financial year is based on the transaction price established at the time of the signing of the partial sale of Datacenter United. An adjusted business plan was drawn up as a result of this transaction, including adjusted future expected cash flows to TINC. Taking into account the transaction prices and the adjusted expected future cash flows to TINC, an adjusted discount rate has been determined. Therefore, this participation remains classified as a Level 3 asset in the fair value hierarchy.
TINC defines the following categories of investments:
The calculation of the fair value of the participations of TINC is based on:
The expected future cash flows to TINC are calculated on the basis of a specific and detailed financial model per participation. Each financial model reflects all expected future revenues and costs over the lifetime of the underlying infrastructure. The expected future cash flows to TINC are then the net cash flows from the participations of TINC after payment of all operating costs and debt obligations within the participations. Debt obligations at participation level are typically fixed for the entire duration of the underlying infrastructure, without refinancing risk. Interest on debt obligations is typically fixed, via hedging, for the entire duration of the financing, to avoid that future cash flows for TINC would be affected by rising interest rates.
Over the past period, TINC received €44.820.150 cash flows in the form of dividends, interests, fees, realized gains, repayments and divestments of capital and loans. These cash flows underpin the distribution policy of TINC.
The expected future revenues and costs of each participation are based on the specific business model of the particular participation.
The business model of participation in Public Infrastructure is usually based on a DBFM agreement between a contracting government and the project company in which various private partners (construction companies, financiers and investors) join forces. 'DBFM' stands for 'Design, Build, Finance and Maintain' and summarizes the responsibilities of the private partners in the project company. Under the DBFM agreement, the contracting authority periodically pays an availability fee to the project company throughout the life of the project, provided the infrastructure is actually available according to the terms of the agreement.
In case of unavailability of the infrastructure, the contracting authority applies penalty points or discounts on the fee, which are contractually passed on to the relevant subcontractors or operational partners responsible for long-term maintenance obligations. Participations in Public Infrastructure have a maximum life of 20 to 35 years, corresponding to the term of the DBFM agreement. At the end of the project duration, the infrastructure is transferred to the contracting authority or public partner free of charge.
The projected significant increase in cash flows to the shareholder at the end of the life (as shown in the attached graph) is the result of the project company's obligation to use available cash to first fully repay debt financing before significant distributions to the shareholder are possible.
The business model of the participations in Energy Infrastructure is based primarily on the sale of renewable power produced by onshore or offshore wind farms and solar farms.
The economic life of these participations depends on the technology used and the land or land rights available to the project company to build and operate its infrastructure. Upon expiration of these rights, the infrastructure must be removed or transferred to the owner of the land (or, where applicable, the roof owner). Although in practice an extension of these rights can be negotiated, TINC generally applies a life of 20 to 25 years for participations in Energy
Infrastructure. During this period, the availability of the facilities is guaranteed by availability guarantees from suppliers and manufacturers.
Project companies' revenues are determined by the amount of power produced and the price received per unit of electricity. Power production depends on the amount of wind and solar, and plant availability. The revenue per unit of power production is a combination of the market power price and any revenue from support measures. The market power price is the price in effect at the time of production. Since production is uncertain because of dependence on wind and solar, a discount is usually applied to the effectively received power price to cover the cost of keeping the power grid in balance.
Support income depends on various government mechanisms and varies by country and technology. The amount of support is usually variable over time and is higher when the market price is lower and lower when the market price is higher. This amount of support is set so that the total amount (market price and support combined) per unit of power generation remains approximately the same over the life of the support measures under normal market conditions. Support measures usually have a duration of 10, 15, or 20 years, depending on the country or region and when the installation is realized, while the effective lifetime of a wind or solar farm is longer. At the end of the support measures, the project company receives the market power price for the power produced. The risk of power price fluctuations after the subsidy period is not hedged.
The participations in Energy Infrastructure use debt financing that is fully repaid within the period of the applicable support measures.
The business models within the Digital Infrastructure segment differ by participation as explained individually below.
Datacenter United (DCU) offers high-quality colocation data center services in Belgium, with nine of its own data centers spread across Flanders and Brussels. DCU leases secure server racks where customers can place their servers. Its infrastructure guarantees high availability, good connectivity via fiber optic networks and power supply. DCU's revenues come from fees paid by a diversified customer base for the use of server space.
Glasdraad owns and operates fiber optic networks in mainly rural areas in the Netherlands. These networks provide FTTH connections to residential and professional customers. These networks are accessible to multiple Internet service providers who offer their services to end users. GlasDraad receives fees from both these providers and end users. The company grows by developing new networks, based on demand from residents, in cooperation with KPN, which has been a co-owner through Glaspoort since 2023.
NGE Fibre owns and operates some operational fiber network concessions in the Grand Est region of France. The networks are operated as open networks, with revenues derived primarily from the long-term rental or lease of the network to various network operators seeking to expand their network capacity.
The business model within the Social Infrastructure segment differ by participation as explained individually below.
Yally buys, renovates and rents homes in Flemish cities to individuals. Yally strives for energy-efficient and future-proof homes and aims to reduce housing costs through smart technology and digitalization. Income comes from indexed rental income.
Obelisc is the owner and operator of an advanced business center, strategically located in the heart of Belgium's largest biotech cluster in Ghent. The center offers 7,500 m² of fully modular laboratory and office space, available for both medium and long-term leasing. These facilities are ideal for biotech and pharmaceutical companies, including renowned companies such as Johnson & Johnson. Income comes from indexed rental income.
De Haan Vakantiehuizen owns 347 vacation homes on the Belgian coast in De Haan, located on a 333-hectare domain that includes a large tropical water park and various leisure activities. This domain is managed, maintained and operated by Pierre & Vacances under the Center Parks label. De Haan Vakantiehuizen receives indexed rental income for this on the basis of a longterm agreement.
Parking garage Eemplein is an underground parking garage in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, with 625 parking spaces. The upper Eemplein has several stores, offices and a cinema. Several residential apartments are located nearby. The revenue of the parking garage comes from short-term parking, parking tickets offered by commercial parties to their customers, and subscriptions for residents and businesses.
Réseau Abilis is a network of specialized care residences in Belgium (Wallonia and Brussels), France and the Netherlands, providing care to approximately 1,100 people with mental disabilities. About 800 full-time employees are responsible for the lifelong residential care of residents, who reside in residences ranging from single-person apartments to larger residential units, and this depending on their degree of autonomy. The income of Réseau Abilis consists of fees funded by public authorities, and mainly French authorities, since the majority of residents are from France. Fee levels are determined according to the specific needs of each resident. TINC fully owns the network's healthcare infrastructure and also holds a minority stake in the healthcare operator. The income generated by the care infrastructure is indexed rental income based on a long-term lease agreement with the care provider.
Garagepark manages parks in the Netherlands that offer innovative and well-secured space for storage and workspace to individuals and entrepreneurs. Garagepark develops and realizes these parks itself and continues to do so. TINC invests in the portfolio of parks developed and managed by Garagepark. The income of these parks consists of indexed rents paid by the users of the storage spaces.
Azulatis is a Belgian company that focuses on the design, construction, financing, management and operation of tailor-made installations for the supply of conditioned water to various industrial companies. This business model falls under the Water-As-A-Service (WaaS) model. Azulatis owns about 50 existing plants at various industrial companies with which it has long-term agreements for the supply of conditioned water. Azulatis' revenue comes from fees paid by its industrial customers based on long-term agreements.
The expected cash flows within each of the participations in the four segments are based on long-term contracts, a regulated environment and/or a strategic position, which is inherent to infrastructure
In determining the estimated future cash flows as a function of the valuation of the participations, the following assumptions, among others, are used:
Inflation is a significant input for almost all participations with significant estimation uncertainty. Therefore, further in this note the sensitivity of this parameter to the portfolio fair value is presented.
As indicated above when describing the business model of the participations in Energy Infrastructure, the amount of power generation on the one hand and the amount received per unit of power generation on the other are significant inputs to the valuation of these participations with significant estimation uncertainty. Further in this note, the sensitivity of these parameters to the fair value of the portfolio is presented.
• The estimated future power production (wind and solar) is based on historical production figures, where available, and on the other hand on independent studies that estimate the expected amount of wind and solar and associated production volume on a probability scale. The expected future production results in a FLH (Full Load Hours) of 2,355 MWh/MW (compared to an annual expected production figure of 2,430 MWh/ MW on December 31, 2023) for the entire energy portfolio, calculated as an average of the estimated future production weighted by the production capacity of each stake. The current 12-month estimate of 2,355 MWh/MW is in line with the portfolio-level P50 probability scenario. The P50 probability scenario corresponds to an estimated production (depending on future irradiation or wind power) that will actually be realized with a 50% probability. For participations in onshore wind farms, this estimate corresponds to long-term wind speeds at 100 meters above ground between 5.6 m/s and 7.3 m/s, depending on the location of the site. For solar power participations, this estimate corresponds to an average irradiance of 1,214 kWh/m2.

annually based on the consumer price index in Ireland. The electricity produced is sold in the market. If the selling price in the market is lower than the REFIT price, the government pays the producer the difference between the selling price and the REFIT price. This guarantees to the producer that it will receive the predetermined price. If the price in the market is higher than the REFIT price, only the market price is received.
The business models of the participations in each of these segments are different from one another, so there are no additional significant inputs, other than inflation and discount rates (see below), that are the same across different participations as a function of the valuation of each of these participations, and thus introduce estimation uncertainty.
The graphs below provide an indicative overview of the sum of cash flows TINC expects to receive from its participations in the Public Infrastructure and Energy Infrastructure segments over the expected finite life of the infrastructure, calculated at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These charts do not take into account participations at transaction value such as SPI.R0 and Hortus Conclusus, the subordinated loan to Storm Group, and contracted off-balance sheet investment commitments with respect to both existing participations and contracted new participations, nor any other possible new additional investment.


The fair value of the investment portfolio is calculated by applying a discount rate to the future cash flows from each individual participation. The weighted average discount rate was 8.40% at the end of the financial year, compared to 8.10% at the end of the previous financial year. This increase is the result of changes to the composition of the investment portfolio, and the application of a more granular approach in the public infrastructure and energy infrastructure segments. In particular, the increased volatility of power prices and the reduced risk of a potential subsidy cut in respect of the Flemish solar farms are considered in respect of the energy participations.
The table below summarizes the weighted average discount rates applicable to the four segments as at December 31, 2024, compared to the figures as of December 31, 2023. The minimum discount rate applied to our portfolio is 7.00% and the maximum discount rate applied to our portfolio is 10.35%.

If over the full lifetime of the energy participations, power production corresponds to a P90 scenario on the probability scale, the fair value of the energy participations decreases by €24,606,676. If, over the full lifetime, power production corresponds to a P10 scenario on the probability scale, the fair value of the energy participations increases by €25,832,968.
If during the full lifetime of the energy participations the power price is 10% lower than the current projected power prices, the fair value of the energy participations decreases by €9,323,441. If during the entire lifetime of the energy participations the power price is 10% higher than the current projected power price, the fair value of the energy participations increases by €12,125,321.
Note that these calculations take into account possible changes in support income a function of changing power prices (higher support amounts when power prices are low and lower support amounts when power prices are high).
If, over the full lifetime of each of the participations, inflation exceeds the assumed inflation rate of 2% by 0.5%, then the fair value of the portfolio increases by €10,360,187. If inflation is 0.5% lower than the assumed inflation rate of 2% throughout the lifetime of each of the participations, then the fair value of the portfolio decreases by €8,986,196.
If for the calculation of the fair value of the participations, a discount rate 0.5% higher than in the basic assumption is used in each case, the fair value of the portfolio decreases by €21,398,894. When using a discount rate that is 0.5% lower, the fair value of the portfolio increases by €23,003,092.

All subordinated loans outstanding at December 31, 2024 are at fixed interest rates. They consist of both shareholder loans and ordinary loans where TINC does not participate in the participation. At December 31, 2024, the item subordinated loans amounts to EUR 94,608,656. The difference with December 31, 2023 is due to the full repayment of the subordinated loan of Northwind and the transfer of the amount invested in the participation NGE Fibre from a subordinated loan to equity
Interest payments and principal repayments on subordinated loans are usually subject to conditions imposed by the senior debt financiers. Interest payments on subordinated loans are made periodically. If the interest cannot be paid, it is capitalized and thus added to the principal. Repayments of shareholder loans are typically flexible. However, there is an obligation, if applicable, to repay the shareholder loan before the end of the expected life of the infrastructure. Repayments of subordinated loans that are not shareholder loans follow a fixed periodic repayment schedule. If this schedule cannot be followed, overdue repayments should be made as soon as possible. The agreed final maturity date of such a loan is typically several years earlier than the expected life of the infrastructure in the company that issued it.

Commitments of TINC to new and existing participations and related financing obligations of TINC will be invested in accordance with the contractual terms.
Commitments to contracted participations increased by €92,719,036 during the past financial year. This increase is due to investments in the past financial year of €37,785,006 in new and existing investments, new commitments of €141,273,040 in new and existing investments, and a decrease in the commitment in Zelfstroom. Outstanding investment commitments relate to the following participations: Higher Education Buildings, Hortus Conclusus, SPI.R0, Storm Wind Belgium, Storm Group, Datacenter United, GlasDraad, Garagepark, Yally and Azulatis. The tables above show when and for which segments the investment commitments are realized.
Commitments to contracted participations include investment commitments for the future acquisition of additional participations already contracted.
At December 31, 2024, the total amount of investment commitments is €204,952,554, composed of €144,645,142 equity, €42,807,412 shareholder loans and €17,500,00 loans.
TINC €200,000,000 of contractual bank credit lines at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2024, €6,900,000 has been drawn down. .
In carrying out its operations as an investment company, TINC is subject to risks both at the level of TINC itself and at the level of the participations in which TINC invests.
Within the framework developed by the Supervisory Board, at the proposal of the Management Board and on the advice of the Audit Committee, the Management Board is responsible for risk management, covering internal control and compliance with laws and regulations. Risks are managed through a process of continuous identification, assessment, evaluation and mitigation. The Management Board reports to the Supervisory Board at least once a year on the general and financial risks and the management and control systems.
The risk factors described below are limited to those risks that TINC considers material and specific to TINC and its participations because they could have an adverse effect on the activities, financial condition, the operating results, the reputation and the prospects of TINC and/or its participations, on the ability of TINC to finance its investment obligations and consequently also on the share price.
Although a large number of participations see their income increase with rising prices, a sustained inflationary environment can weigh on the cost structure and consequently on the results of both TINC and the participations.
TINC has no participations with infrastructure located in areas currently experiencing war, persistent violence or political unrest. Geopolitical events and tensions can nevertheless have an impact on the stability of the financial
markets or the economic system and on the availability of debt and/or capital instruments for TINC to finance its investment commitments.
Adequate opportunities to create value for TINC by investing in infrastructure companies that can generate cash flows, realize them and distribute them to TINC, may not be sufficiently present, or may be present but in an insufficiently diversified manner, under unattractive conditions, or may be limited or prevented by macroeconomic and cyclical conditions, changing regulations or political developments. The growth of TINC depends in part on its ability to manage the future expansion of its portfolio of participations and to identify, select and execute attractive investment opportunities in an appropriate manner in accordance with the strategy of TINC.
The availability of future investment opportunities depends in part on market conditions, and therefore there can be no assurance that TINC will be able to identify and execute a sufficient number of future investment opportunities to allow TINC to expand its portfolio.
Further growth of TINC and its portfolio is also expected to place additional demands on management, support, accounting and financial control and other resources and would entail a number of related risks, including the potential disruption of ongoing activities and distraction of management and increased operational costs at the level of TINC.
TINC has contractually committed to a number of financial commitments with regard to existing and future participations. These include commitments to invest additional funds in existing participations, as well as commitments to acquire new participations at a later date.
If the financial resources of TINC prove insufficient to finance such commitments and further growth, TINC will have to raise additional financing, in the form of an issue of new shares or debt instruments or in the form of a credit facility (or a combination). There is no guarantee that such options will always be available on acceptable terms.
Financing needs can also be addressed by selling the more liquid participations in the portfolio. However, the majority of the participations held by TINC include interests in participations that are not publicly or freely tradable and that are often subject to restrictions on transfer (e.g. approval of the transfer by other parties) and that therefore may have to be realized at a value lower than the value attributed to such investments.
TINC holds cash reserves in bank accounts at various financial institutions. The systems of the relevant financial institutions could be affected by external circumstances, including disruptions in the IT systems or cyber-attacks. Similar risks related to financial institutions apply to the participations of TINC.
TINC makes investment decisions based on estimates and/or forecasts of investment cash flows generated by the participations, including assumptions about the amount and timing of costs over the lifetime of the relevant participations (which can be up to 35 years). Such estimates, projections and forecasts may be based, at least in part, on large and detailed financial models, and there is always a risk that errors will be made in the assumptions, calculations or methodologies used in such models, or that the relevant hypothetical parameters will differ from actual results.
TINC is exposed to sustainability-related risks both as a responsible company and as a sustainable investor. This applies primarily with regard to its investment portfolio (see below). The non-compliance of TINC with increasingly stringent sustainability regulations can lead to legal sanctions, higher operational costs and stricter supervision. Furthermore, stakeholders' unfulfilled sustainability expectations (including not (fully) meeting standards and ESG scores and sustainability criteria) can damage confidence in TINC and its reputation.
TINC invests in participations that are active in highly regulated sectors such as energy, public-private partnerships, specialized residential care and research and development in the life sciences industry. Changes in applicable laws, regulations or government policies, including currently applicable tax laws, tax regimes (such as applicable tax rates, the use of tax loss carryforwards, the deduction of interest expenses, the taxation of dividends received and the taxation of capital gains on shares) and/or the (direct or indirect) tax status of TINC or a participation, accounting practices and accounting standards, can have a (negative) impact on TINC or (the cash flows generated from) a specific participation. Governments could also try to renegotiate existing contracts.
TINC has the legal form of a public limited company with a sole Statutory Director appointed in the articles of association as its management model. The mandate of the Statutory Director can only be terminated, without its consent, by (i) the general meeting of shareholders, in accordance with the requirements for amending the articles of association, for valid reasons, or (ii) a court order on a request for good cause by a special proxy appointed by shareholders participation voting shares representing at least 3% of the share capital of TINC. The above-mentioned governance model allows the Statutory Director to exercise a controlling influence on decision-making. Consequently, the influence of other holders of shares in TINC will be limited.
TINC is largely dependent on TDP NV for its investment activities and the management of its investment portfolio, to whom the responsibility for providing investment and administrative services has been entrusted. The loss of TDP or significant changes in the management or team of employees can have a (temporary) negative impact.
There are no arrangements with the main shareholders of TINC regarding investment opportunities offered, so it is possible that the main shareholders themselves pursue such investment opportunities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain principles regarding the allocation of investment opportunities were agreed upon in a partnership agreement between TINC and TDP NV (as further described elsewhere in the Annual Report 2024).
TINC is dependent on third parties for the management of its IT systems (hardware, software, network, storage systems). Human error, natural disasters or disruptions to the IT systems can compromise the confidentiality, availability and integrity of data. Furthermore, TINC could fall victim to cyber-attacks on the integrity of the systems and data (computer viruses, malware, phishing), causing the IT systems to malfunction, making data unavailable and/or allowing unauthorized access to the data.
Similar IT-related risks apply to the participations of TINC.
As a company listed on Euronext Brussels, TINC is subject to regulations regarding information requirements, transparency reporting, takeover bids, corporate governance and insider trading. Compliance or non-compliance with these regulations can lead to legal sanctions, higher operational costs and stricter supervision, which can have an impact on the share price. In addition, volatility in the financial markets can impact the value of TINC shares. Although TINC strives to systematically create long-term shareholder value, price fluctuations may occur in the shorter term.
TINC often holds investments in participations in the form of subordinated loans (in combination with equity investments or on a stand-alone basis), which have a lower ranking than the other debts of those participations. In the event of liquidity problems at a participation, there is a risk that subordinated loans will not be repaid (in time), as they are only repaid after all other debt obligations have been met.
TINC relies on various counterparties for the success of its investments in Participations, such as financial and operational partners (including subcontractors, public legal entities, customers who generate demand risk, financial institutions and insurers, and external infrastructure users). These counterparties may be unable to meet their contractual obligations, face credit-specific risks from a variety of circumstances such as default, impairment or insolvency, or may require replacement over time. Such events may result in unexpected costs, (non-recoverable) surcharges, limited financial liability amounts, losses or a reduction in expected income for the participations.
Participations often have borrowed money from external creditors. Breaches of financial covenants by participations could lead to a suspension of payments to TINC and could grant the relevant creditors certain administrative and enforcement rights over the participations.
Changes in applicable interest rates may also increase the cost of debt financing for the participations and consequently affect the valuation and profitability of the participations.
In investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS), the counterparties are usually public legal entities that can enjoy (limited) immunity from execution, which means their goods cannot be seized, which can have an impact on the expected income for the participations.
A significant portion of the participations is active in a regulated environment (for example energy infrastructure, public-private partnerships and healthcare) and benefits from support schemes (for example green energy certificates). Infrastructure is also subject to specific regulations such as health, safety and environmental rules, tax and accounting rules.
Care institutions such as specialized residences for persons with special needs are subject to specific legal frameworks and risks. The rates charged are regulated, so changes in social and benefit policies can have a negative impact.
Any (future and/or retroactive) change, revocation, withdrawal, tightening or stricter enforcement of the aforementioned regulations, policies and support schemes (including energy support systems) may have an impact on income or may entail additional capital expenditure or operating costs (particularly since certain tariffs are regulated), and may therefore affect the expected income from the participations.
Certain portfolio activities also require specific permits and licenses. It is possible that required permits and licenses are not granted, not extended, suspended or revoked by the relevant authorities.
Similar climate- and sustainability-related risks as described above for TINC apply to the participations of TINC. Climate change and environmental, social and governance risks that are inaccurately assessed and cannot or will not be mitigated can pose a material risk to certain portfolio companies in terms of the physical integrity, reputation and operational continuity of their business model. This can have financial consequences, such as higher operational costs and insurance risks, lead to reputational damage and consequently have a negative impact on the valuations of these companies. Physical risks vary from shortterm effects due to extreme weather conditions (e.g. damage to assets,
disruption of energy production) to long-term effects such as scarcity of raw materials and rising energy costs.
The development, construction and operation of infrastructure can cause disruption and inconvenience, such as noise, dust, vibrations, traffic congestion and other (environmental) effects that can affect local residents and businesses. Such events can lead to complaints, opposition and/or legal claims from local communities, regulatory authorities or other stakeholders. Increased regulatory oversight, public opposition and/or legal action could result in project delays, increased construction and operating costs, changes in construction methods, additional risk mitigation measures and/or suspension or termination of certain activities.
It is possible that the infrastructure is not available or is insufficiently available or produces what could have a negative impact on the valuation of the participations and the cash flows to TINC.
The participations rely to a significant extent on suppliers and subcontractors for their operations, who are carefully selected based on their experience, quality of work, solvency, etc. It is possible that such subcontractors do not or cannot fulfill their obligations for various reasons. Several participations could have called on the same such subcontractor(s). The liability of such subcontractors may be subject to financial limits that do not compensate the actual damage, which can lead to losses for the participations involved. Where possible, the necessary insurance is taken out to cover business interruptions, for example, but it is possible that this is not sufficient.
In the healthcare sector, there is a risk of difficulties arising with regard to maintaining an appropriate quality of service and recruiting and retaining expert healthcare personnel, which could have a negative impact on the image and growth prospects of the healthcare institution or on the cost structure.
TINC holds interests in participations that are active in renewable energy, such as solar energy, on-shore and offshore wind farms and energy storage systems. The power production of solar installations and wind farms depends, among other things, on the intensity of the sun and the wind speed, which can fluctuate over time. Such fluctuations will have an impact on the income from the participations and consequently on the cash flows to TINC.
Once operational and during the lifespan of a participation, it cannot be ruled out that the infrastructure or certain components will show defects and will not be (fully) available, requiring replacement or a major refurbishing. Although the responsibility for this lies largely with the parties that the participations rely on for the realization and maintenance of the infrastructure, it is possible that these parties do not solve certain technical problems for technical, organizational or financial reasons, which can negatively affect the results of the participations.
The portfolio contains participations whose earnings model depends on demand from customers and care recipients or where the earnings model is subject to evolutions in pricing (e.g. electricity prices). There will always be a risk that the degree of use of the infrastructure and thus the revenues from such participations will be different than expected.
TINC has acquired interests and may acquire interests in participations with infrastructure or assets in a development or construction phase. TINC may provide financing for these participations from the early development phase, while the cash flows from these participations usually only come in at a later stage when the infrastructure is operational. Associated risks include potential cost overruns and delays in completion (many of which are often caused by factors over which TINC has no direct control), development costs incurred for design and research, with no guarantee that the development will reach completion.
When TINC considers investing in infrastructure development, it will make certain estimates of the economic, market and other conditions, including estimates of the (operational and other) costs and the (potential) value of the infrastructure. These estimates may prove to be incorrect.
Contracts for investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS) often require the infrastructure to be in a predetermined condition at the end of its lifespan, and the actual costs of meeting this obligation are often difficult to calculate or predict. If the risk of complying with the requirement to return the infrastructure in the agreed condition lies with the participant, the associated costs may be higher than expected. Even if this risk has been passed on to subcontractors, there is a risk that the subcontractor will not fulfill the required obligations.
In investments in public infrastructure (DBFM/PPS), contracts generally give the relevant counterparty from the public sector the right to terminate the agreement under certain circumstances. If this happens, it may be that (the lack of) a financial settlement does not meet the predetermined return or affects the invested amount. This is the case, for example, in certain scenarios (e.g. war or terrorist acts) where only the nominal value of the equity is compensated.

On February 17, 2025, TINC announced a €61 million investment in Project Mufasa, one of the largest battery storage systems (BESS) in the EU. The project will be realized at the North Sea Port Vlissingen, a major hub for renewable energy in the Netherlands. It replaces a former coal-fired power plant with access to TenneT's high-voltage grid, and represents an important step forward in supporting the transition to renewable energy in the Netherlands by strengthening its critical energy infrastructure. TINC is investing €61 million in Project Mufasa for a preferred equity stake of 36.67%. The investment is financed by TINC under its €200 million bank credit facility.
On February 28, 2025, the partial sale of a stake in Datacenter United and the acquisition of Proximus' Belgian data centers announced in October 2024 was completed. The financial impact of the transaction was reflected in the annual results published as of December 31, 2024. The combination of the proceeds of partial sale and the additional capital investment in Datacenter United to finance the acquisition of the Proximus data centers results in a net investment of approximately €45 million for TINC. TINC financed this investment under its €200 million bank credit facility.
On March 10, 2025, the approval of the strategic cooperation between Gimv, WorxInvest and Belfius as partners for the further growth of TINC was announced. On September 19, 2024, an agreement was announced whereby WorxInvest would acquire half of Gimv NV's stake in Infravest NV. Infravest NV incorporated as a 100% subsidiary of Gimv - is the largest shareholder of TINC NV with a 21.32% stake and is also the indirect shareholder of TINC Manager NV, the statutory director of TINC NV. As part of this transaction Gimv NV and Belfius Bank NV would also contribute their respective stakes in TDP NV, the joint venture set up by Gimv and Belfius to develop and manage a wide range of infrastructure projects, to Infravest NV. The entire transaction was subject to customary conditions precedent including approval by the relevant authorities. In the meantime, all approvals have been obtained and as from March 10, 2025, the strategic cooperation can start. WorxInvest and Gimv each now hold a 40.8% stake in Infravest NV, and Belfius also joins as a minority shareholder with a 18.4% stake. Following this transaction, Mr. Filip Dierckx and Mr. Nils de Bremaeker join the supervisory board of TINC Manager NV, statutory director of TINC NV, nominated by Infravest NV. The mandate of Mr. Peter Vermeiren ends. The Supervisory Board wishes to express its gratitude to Peter who has contributed to the TINC story from the very beginning. From now on the Supervisory Board has 8 members including three independent directors including Mr. Philip Maeyaert, independent chairman.
In the context of the statutory audit of the consolidated financial statements of TINC SA ('the Company') and its subsidiaries (together referred to as 'the Group'), we hereby present our statutory auditor's report. It includes our report of the consolidated financial statements and the other legal and regulatory requirements. This report is an integrated whole and is indivisible.
We have been appointed as statutory auditor by the general meeting of 15 May 2024, following the proposal formulated by the administrative body issued upon recommendation of the Audit Committee. Our statutory auditor's mandate expires on the date of the General Meeting deliberating on the financial statements closed on 31 December 2026. We have performed the statutory audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the first time this year.
We have performed the statutory audit of the Group's consolidated financial statements, which comprise the consolidated balance as at 31 December 2024, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes, comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information, and which is characterised by a consolidated balance total of 514.657.485 EUR and for which the consolidated statement of comprehensive income shows a profit for the year of 42.491.060 EUR.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the Group's net equity and financial position as at 31 December 2024, as well as of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union and with the legal and regulatory requirements applicable in Belgium.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA) as applicable in Belgium. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the 'Statutory auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements' section in this report. We have complied with all the ethical requirements that are relevant to the audit of consolidated financial statements in Belgium, including those concerning independence. We have obtained from the administrative body and company officials the explanations and information necessary for performing our audit.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
As an investment company, TINC NV holds interests in companies that are active in the construction and operation of infrastructure projects. These are valued at fair value and presented as "Investments at fair value through profit and loss" in the consolidated balance sheet for an amount of 512.070.034 EUR, accounting for 99% of the consolidated balance total.
As described in note 7 of the consolidated financial statements, the financial assets are measured in accordance with IFRS 10 at fair value through profit and loss. The determination of fair value is based on management's estimates. Changes in the underlying assumptions and estimates could lead to a significant change regarding the fair value.
The current volatile socio-economic situation causes uncertainty in the market about the current and future performance of companies, which can also lead to increased volatility in future cash flows. This increases the risk of a significant deviation in terms of fair value.
We believe that the valuation of the "Investments at fair value through profit and loss" is a key audit matter of our audit, not only because of its importance in the consolidated financial statements but also taking into account:
We have performed the following audit procedures:
The consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023 were audited by another statutory auditor who expressed an unqualified opinion on these consolidated financial statements on 5 March 2024.
The administrative body is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the European Union and with the legal and regulatory provisions applicable in Belgium, and for such internal control as the administrative body determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the administrative body is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the administrative body either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a statutory auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements. When executing our audit, we respect the legal, regulatory and normative framework applicable for the audit of the consolidated financial statements in Belgium. However, a statutory audit does not guarantee the future viability of the Group, neither the efficiency and effectiveness of the management of the Group by the administrative body. Our responsibilities regarding the continuity assumption applied by the administrative body are described below.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our statutory auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our statutory auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern;
We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control identified during the audit.
We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we respected the relevant ethical requirements relating to independence, and we communicate with them about all relationships and other issues which may influence our independence, and, if applicable, about the related measures to guarantee our independence.
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year, and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our statutory auditor's report, unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.
The administrative body is responsible for the preparation and the contents of the director's report on the consolidated financial statements, including the sustainability information and for the other information included in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements.
In the context of our mission and in accordance with the Belgian standard (draft version 2025) which is complementary to the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) as applicable in Belgium, it is our responsibility to verify, in all material aspects, the director's report on the consolidated financial statements and the other information included in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements, and to report on these elements.
In the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements, we are also responsible for considering, in particular based on the knowledge we have obtained during the audit, whether the director's report on the consolidated financial statements and the other information included in the annual report on the consolidated financial statements, namely:
• Results
• Corporate governance
contain a material misstatement, i.e. information which is inadequately disclosed or otherwise misleading. Based on the procedures we have performed, there are no material misstatements we have to report to you.
In accordance with the Draft standard of the Institute of Réviseurs d'Entreprises concerning the audit of conformity of the annual report with the European Single Electronic Format (hereinafter "ESEF"), we also audited the conformity of the ESEF format with the regulatory technical standards established by the European Delegated Regulation 2019/815 of 17 December 2018 (hereinafter: "Delegated Regulation") and with the royal decree of 14 November 2007, concerning the obligations of issuers of financial instruments that are admitted to trade on a regulated market.
The administrative body is responsible for preparing an annual report in accordance with ESEF requirements, including the consolidated financial statements in the form of an electronic file in ESEF format (hereinafter "digital consolidated financial statements").
It is our responsibility to obtain sufficient and appropriate supporting information to conclude that the format of the annual report and mark-up language XBRL of the digital consolidated financial statements comply in all material aspects with the ESEF requirements under the Delegated Regulation and with the royal decree of 14 November 2007.
Based on our work, we believe the digital format of the annual report and the tagging of information in the consolidated financial statements included in the annual report of TINC NV as of 31 December 2024, and which will be available in the Belgian official mechanism for the storage of regulated information (STORI) of the FSMA, are in all material respects in accordance with the ESEF requirements pursuant to the Delegated Regulation and the royal decree of 14 November 2007.
• This report is in compliance with the contents of our additional report to the Audit Committee as referred to in article 11 of regulation (EU) No 537/2014.
