"We are pleased with the strong financial performance in the first half of 2023, with solid growth in all key metrics. We invested in exciting companies that support the decarbonisation of transport and energy. The pipeline remains active and we continue to maintain discipline. Our 'performance-first' mindset has served us well, as demonstrated by the continued growth and strong profitability of our portfolio companies. While overall market conditions for fundraising remain challenging, we achieved excellent results, securing 85% of Fund V's target size. This has led to a significant step change in our earnings capacity."
• AUM at €30.7bn, up +37.4% over the last twelve months Fee‑paying AUM at €19.7bn, up +45.1% over the last twelve months
• Consistent with Antin's exit plans for its investment portfolio, no exit was announced in 1H 2023. With the closing of lyntia Networks in 1Q 2023, Flagship Fund III and Fund III-B were respectively c.38% and c.26% realised as of 30 June 2023. Flagship Fund II remained c.92% realised
• Gross Multiples were mostly stable in the first half of 2023. All funds continued to perform either on plan or above plan, underpinned by the robust operating performance of Antin's portfolio companies and the resilience of the infrastructure asset class.
• Revenue reached €138.1m, up +43.8% driven by higher management fees resulting from a significant increase in Fee-Paying AUM. Long-term contracted management fees accounted for more than 98% of Antin's total revenue, providing significant revenue predictability
• Underlying net income reached €60.7m in 1H 2023, almost doubling (+98.2%) compared with 1H 2022. The increase is driven by higher EBITDA, as well as positive net financial income
(1) Excluding catch-up fees and management fees for Fund III-B
• The Board of Directors of Antin, meeting on 3 August 2023, declared the distribution of an interim dividend amounting to €57.3m, equivalent to €0.32 per share(2) . This interim dividend is more than twice the €0.14 per share paid out in 1H 2022. It represents a payout ratio of 94% of underlying net income. The interim dividend will be paid in cash out of distributable income. The ex-dividend date is set for 14 November 2023 and the dividend payment will take place on 16 November 2023. This interim dividend is in line with Antin's policy to distribute the majority of its distributable earnings to its shareholders in two instalments per year
(2) Assuming 179,193,288 shares outstanding on ex-dividend date
As a reminder, any commitments raised in 2024 instead of 2023 would be subject to catch-up fees, leading to management fees and EBITDA being recognised later, but not forgone
• Distribution to shareholders. Majority of cash profits to be distributed with the absolute quantum of annual dividends expected to grow over time. Distributions paid in two instalments per year, one in autumn and the second shortly after the Annual Shareholders' Meeting
The condensed consolidated financial statements for the first half of 2023 that were subject to a limited review by the Group's auditors were adopted by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 3 August 2023. These condensed consolidated financial statements, a presentation of the half year 2023 results, and the related webcast (live and replay) are available athttps://shareholders.antin-ip.com/
