This portfolio, which is diversified by sector and geography, is designed to generate sustainable, attractive returns over the long term. We achieve this by targeting assets which have strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) credentials, and underpin the transition to a low‑carbon economy. We invest in private assets which we believe will benefit from strong downside protection through inflation linkage and other defensive characteristics.
PINT provides exposure to a global, diversified portfolio (the 'Portfolio') through direct co‑investments in high‑quality infrastructure assets with strong defensive characteristics, typically benefiting from contracted cash flows, inflation protection and conservative leverage profiles. The Portfolio focuses on assets benefiting from long‑term secular tailwinds. The Company is overseen by a Board of independent non‑executive Directors and managed by Pantheon Ventures (UK) LLP ('Pantheon' or the 'Investment Manager'), a leading multi-strategy investment manager in infrastructure and real assets, private equity, private debt and real estate.

The Company has built a global portfolio of investments with blended risk/return profiles, in line with targets across deal types, sectors and geographies for diversification.

Co-investments afford the opportunity for investors to invest alongside Sponsors in specific Portfolio Companies, typically on a fee and carried interest-free basis. Investments are typically in the form of a portion of the common equity in the Portfolio Company as a minority shareholder, with 'drag-and-tag' rights to ensure economic alignment with Sponsors. PINT's focus is on gaining exposure to infrastructure assets via co‑investments.
Investing in co-investments can be an attractive way to gain access to private infrastructure for several reasons, including:
There are fewer public market opportunities to access infrastructure assets, as infrastructure companies tend to remain private for longer periods of time. Therefore, investing through co‑investments provides access to assets not normally accessible by public market investors.
The use of co‑investments can reduce the overall expense ratio and gross‑to‑net performance spread of a portfolio, as most deals are offered with no ongoing management fee or carried interest charged by the Sponsor.
Co-investments provide significant alignment through the incentivisation of both Sponsors, who typically provide the majority of capital through their primary fund vehicles, and Portfolio Company management, who are typically tied in under long-term incentive programmes.
Pantheon is able to utilise co‑investments to select individual assets to gain exposure to, and tilt the Portfolio towards, sectors based on the Investment Manager's view on relative value.

Co-investments enable a portfolio to be constructed that is diversified across infrastructure sectors, geographies, stages and Sponsor.
Co-investments can provide access to nascent and emerging sectors that may otherwise be underweight or not be available within primary or secondary investment opportunities.

Co-investors have the ability to choose deals alongside a Sponsor with a distinct edge who may be best placed to create value.
Sustainability
Through the Investment Manager, PINT looks to partner with Sponsors that demonstrate strong capabilities in managing sustainability risks and will actively engage with the Investment Manager where it identifies areas of concern. Pantheon has developed a bespoke ESG due diligence process, which utilises an in-house tool (an ESG scorecard) in addition to consultation with an external specialist, which utilises a range of different data sources.
Infrastructure assets combine a range of attractive characteristics for long‑term investors. Distinctively, infrastructure may mitigate the adverse effects of rising inflation and may provide an income‑generating investment outside of traditional fixed income.
Infrastructure assets may provide embedded value and downside protection across market cycles given the regulated and contracted nature of many of the underlying cash flows.
Infrastructure assets may provide a range of attractive investment attributes, including the following:
Infrastructure may provide a compelling, stable distribution profile similar to traditional fixed income, but backed by tangible assets. Infrastructure assets often offer reliable income streams governed by regulation, hedges or long‑term contracts with reputable counterparties.
Infrastructure investments can provide a natural hedge to rising inflation, as many sub‑sectors have contracts with explicit inflation linkage or implicit protection through regulation or market position. The majority of PINT's assets benefit from such protection.
The vital role that many infrastructure sub‑sectors play in our daily lives can make them an innately defensive investment. The tangible nature of infrastructure investments can provide a basis for liquidation and recovery value in downside cases. Furthermore, infrastructure investing is generally focused on gaining exposure to assets in a monopolistic or oligopolistic market which, with high upfront costs, can be a barrier to entry for new participants. Investments typically have long‑term contracts with price escalators or inflation linkage with high‑quality counterparties, which offer further downside protection. Finally, high friction costs in certain sectors have been seen to discourage customers from switching providers, which can provide a stable and long-term customer base.
Infrastructure can be a valuable portfolio diversifier alongside traditional and alternative investments. Historically, listed infrastructure returns have been only moderately correlated with traditional asset classes. The sub‑sectors within the infrastructure universe and the drivers of such sub‑sector returns tend not to be correlated with one another.
Digital infrastructure assets such as towers, fibre and data centres have become the 21st century utility assets, as data and connectivity have become essential for a functioning economy, and given the potential for AI to revolutionise society.
Investment into renewables has accelerated due to energy security and climate change considerations, and the ongoing decarbonisation of electric grids has taken hold over the past five years.
Current trends in geopolitics favour opportunities in the Transport & Logistics sector, as supply chains follow 're-shoring' or 'friend-shoring' trends.

"We are delighted with the continued positive portfolio performance, despite the challenging market conditions."
Vagn Sørensen Chair, Pantheon Infrastructure Plc

I am pleased to present the interim report for Pantheon Infrastructure Plc for the six-month period to 30 June 2024. This is the Company's third interim statement since launch, and I am delighted to report on the continued strong NAV performance since IPO.
Since successfully deploying its initial launch proceeds into a diversified portfolio of high-quality infrastructure assets, the Company has generated dividends in line with its pre-IPO target and delivered positive NAV total returns. During the first half of the year, the Company's NAV per share grew 7.3p to 113.9p. On an income statement basis, this represents a NAV Total Return of 8.5% for the period since 31 December 2023. Including the accretive benefit of share repurchases during the period, this increases to 8.7%.
In keeping with the Company's stated intention at IPO to offer shareholders a progressive dividend policy, I am also pleased to report a dividend target for the current financial year of 4.2p per share, an increase of 5% on the prior financial year. In increasing the target dividend, the Board has considered the Company's liquidity outlook and the strong performance of the Company's investments. The first interim dividend of 2.1p, in respect of the twelve months ending 31 December 2024, will be payable on 25 October 2024.
The Company's differentiated approach seeks to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns through its diversified portfolio of investments in high-quality assets across the global infrastructure universe, focusing on assets that offer downside and inflation protection. Leveraging Pantheon's extensive 16-year experience in infrastructure investing and its c.\$21 billion infrastructure platform, PINT has targeted specific transactions that Pantheon deems to be most attractive, notably opportunities in businesses with strong operations and growth potential, in sub‑sectors benefiting from long-term positive trends and managed by high-quality Sponsors.
The global economic environment continues to be an uncertain one. Whilst most of the developed economies in which we invest have so far avoided recessions, the outlook remains fragile, as evidenced most recently by the global market corrections following the combined impact of monetary tightening in Japan, employment data in the US and earnings performance of the big tech sector. Whilst that sell‑off was followed by a sharp rebound across global markets, and the sentiment remains that recessions will be avoided, the market volatility that followed these events was indicative of the uncertainty over the economic outlook. Fortunately, the Company benefits from limited direct linkage to economic output across its portfolio, highlighting the defensive nature of infrastructure assets.
Additionally, inflation continues to prove stickier than many central banks had anticipated. Despite the recent interest rate reductions in the UK, the US and the Eurozone, policymakers continue to adopt a cautious approach to rate cuts as they wrestle with sustained inflation. A slower tapering off of interest rates has proven to be problematic for the investment trust sector in particular, which continues to be defined by a high prevalence of share price discounts to net asset values. However, there are signs that the interest rate curve may be stabilising, with recent downward movements in short‑term gilt yields potentially a signal of a shift in sentiment.
Amidst this backdrop of volatility in public markets, it has been encouraging to see signs of recovery in private market fundraising in the infrastructure sector. The availability of capital in this sector – both new capital and existing dry powder – makes for a continued constructive valuation environment for the Company.
As a Board we are delighted with the continued positive portfolio performance, from both an operational and NAV perspective, despite the challenging market conditions.
Valuation gains across the Portfolio represent the majority of the Company's NAV performance since IPO, which continues to exceed the 8-10% annual NAV Total Return guidance.
During the period, profit before tax amounted to £42.7 million or 9.1p per share. This performance has been attributable to notable fair value gains on investments including, but not limited to: Calpine, which has benefited from a buoyant trading environment for energy companies and higher than anticipated capture prices and capacity market pricing; CyrusOne, which is expected to deliver earnings growth ahead of its original investment case due to increased cloud and AI computing demands from hyperscale organisations; and National Broadband Ireland, which continues to reduce the risks associated with its business through its fibre rollout and addition of new customers ahead of the original forecast adoption rate.
Other than to fund capital calls on existing commitments, the Company has not made any further investments since the announcement of its investment in Zenobē last year. The Company continues to exercise discipline around new investment given the limited availability of capital and the current share price discount to NAV. All the same, we continue to have excellent visibility on the Investment Manager's pipeline and have been encouraged by the range of exciting opportunities that could be pursued, were no capital constraints to exist. This leaves the Company well placed for when it is next in a position to make new investments.
The Company's £115 million revolving credit facility remains undrawn and available to cover risk buffers and undrawn commitments. Despite having capacity to do so, the Company has maintained a cautious approach by not using the facility to fund new investment at a time where there has been limited visibility of the means to repay it. We continue to monitor this position with regard to any updates on disposal timing, and relative to the drawn cost of using the facility.
Since October 2022, the Company's share price has traded at a discount to NAV. This has primarily been in response to high levels of economic uncertainty in the UK arising from increased interest rates, higher inflation and geopolitical uncertainty. These factors continue to suppress demand for the Company's shares, compounded by the relatively small size of the Company compared to other infrastructure investment companies. However, these issues are not unique to the Company – with few exceptions, the universe of investment companies continues to be characterised by large discounts to NAV arising from these same pressures.
The Board continues to believe that any discount is unwarranted given the Company's excellent NAV performance, its differentiated investment policy and the quality of the Portfolio and the Sponsors with whom we partner. However, we recognise that share price returns have been a source of frustration for investors. Accordingly, the Board continues to focus on capital allocation, specifically the application of a buyback programme which was renewed in April of this year, and in total has allocated c.£18 million to potential share repurchases. During the period, the Company purchased a total of 3.3 million Ordinary Shares at a total cost of £2.75 million.
Together with the anticipated change in the future interest rate environment and continued efforts of the Investment Manager and Broker, we expect to see a re-rating of the Company's shares in due course. We are further encouraged in this regard by recent developments around the UK's regime for cost disclosures of investment trusts. Specifically, the Board considers that the FCA's statement on forbearance and the imminent replacement of existing legislation has the potential to result in increased demand for the Company's shares over time.
The Board takes its responsibilities to shareholders, in accordance with good governance standards, very seriously, and we continually strive to improve our oversight of the Company and its transparency. During the period, we have had a particular focus on ESG matters and sustainability through the Sustainability Committee. Under the oversight of this committee, the Company published its second sustainability report on 1 July 2024, providing (among other things) further insight into the sustainability characteristics of PINT's portfolio and relevant emissions data. The full report can be found on the Company's website www.pantheoninfrastructure.com/sustainability.
From a succession planning perspective, I am delighted to confirm that after a formal process involving a search consultant, the Board will be recommending the appointment of Patrick O'Donnell Bourke as my successor as Chair, effective from the Company's annual general meeting in 2025. Patrick brings a wealth of experience to the role and benefits from familiarity with the Company through his tenure as chair of the Audit and Risk Committee since IPO. Accordingly, the Company will now commence its search for Patrick's replacement in this role, with an appointment expected early in the new year.
The Board remains optimistic about the Company's future prospects. NAV performance continues to exceed the Company's return targets, and increasing visibility of cash flows supports the Board's decision to increase the dividend.
We also continue to believe that infrastructure assets provide much-needed resilience in an ever-changing world, creating an abundant pipeline which the Investment Manager is expertly positioned to execute on. Along with favourable legislative developments around cost disclosures, these factors make for a compelling case for the Company's shares to trade at a premium once demand for the investment trust sector is restored, enabling the Company to grow further and continue to provide investors of all types access to a truly unique investment opportunity.

After shifting priorities to its BTS business, the company has successfully broadened its customer base through becoming a preferred supplier to another large-scale mobile network operator (MNO). This further de-risks the company's future pipeline, following the joint venture with Verizon for up to 3,000 BTS developments, announced in 2023. The company still sees longer‑term rollout of 5G coverage from MNOs as being highly favourable for earnings growth, through both BTS business and the potential for 'leasing up' through the addition of new co-location customers on existing towers.

PINT has constructed a diversified global portfolio with a focus on developed market OECD countries, with all investments currently in Western Europe and North America. Over the medium term, the Investment Manager expects, in line with the initial prospectus, the composition of the Portfolio to include investments in the following sub‑sectors: Digital Infrastructure, Power & Utilities, Transport & Logistics, Renewables & Energy Efficiency and Social & Other Infrastructure.
As at 30 June 2024, the Company had a total of £526 million invested or committed across 13 investments.
The Portfolio is diversified across sectors and geographies, and the Investment Manager believes that it is well positioned to withstand any external market challenges. The investments typically benefit from defensive characteristics including long-term contracted cash flows, inflation protection and robust capital structures.
Seven investments are in Digital Infrastructure, representing 45% of NAV1 , across the data centre, towers and fibre sub‑sectors. Three investments, representing 28%, are in the Power & Utilities sector, including: gas transmission, district heating and electricity generation. Two investments are in Renewables & Energy Efficiency (16%) and the remaining investment is in Transport & Logistics (9%). The largest geographical exposure is in Europe (45%), with the remaining exposure in North America (37%) and the UK (16%). Net working capital comprised 2% of NAV at 30 June 2024.
During the period, the Portfolio generated underlying growth of £45.5 million, reflecting a 9.5% movement on the opening capital invested, adjusted for capital calls and investments totalling £5.6 million, but before adjusting for distributions totalling £4.3 million.
Movements in foreign exchange values resulted in a foreign exchange loss of £2.7 million (offset at a company level by a foreign exchange hedging gain of £3.9 million), resulting in a closing value of £515.8 million at 30 June 2024.
The Portfolio had a weighted average discount rate (WADR) of 13.6%2 at the period end (31 December 2023: 13.6%).

Based on NAV of £535 million at 30 June 2024.
Weighted average discount rate of 13.6% is based on the discount rate or implied discount rate of each Portfolio Company investment at 30 June 2024, weighted on an investment fair value basis (excluding undrawn commitments), across all 13 investments.

NAV increased over the period by 7.3p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: 2.1p per share), after adjusting for the dividends paid of 2.0p per share over the period (six months to 30 June 2023: 1.0p per share). The movement in the period was principally driven by fair value gains of 9.7p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: 4.7p per share), partially offset by foreign exchange movements of (0.5)p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: (3.1)p per share), attributable principally to the weakening of EUR during the period, which was offset by a 0.8p per share movement from the foreign exchange hedging programme (six months to 30 June 2023: 2.0p per share).
Share buybacks contributed 0.2p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: 0.04p per share), with a reduction of (0.9)p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: (0.9)p per share) related to fund operating and financing expenses, resulting in a closing NAV of 113.9p per share. This excludes the impact of the first interim dividend of 2.1p per share for the year ending 31 December 2024, which is to be paid on 25 October 2024.

The total profit before taxation for the period was £42.7 million, (six months to 30 June 2023: £14.9 million), resulting in a 9.1p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: 3.1p per share) contribution to the NAV movement. In the Company's Income Statement this is shown as a profit on investment of £22.8 million (six months to 30 June 2023: £7.2 million) which includes portfolio FX movements of £(2.7) million or (0.5)p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: £(15.3) million or (3.1)p per share), and investment income of £19.9 million (six months to 30 June 2023: £nil). Adjusting for the portfolio FX movement disclosed separately in the portfolio and NAV bridge charts, the fair value gains were £45.5 million (six months to 30 June 2023: £22.4 million). The FX loss was offset by the foreign exchange hedging movements of £3.9 million or 0.8p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: £9.7 million or 2.0p per share). Total expenses, including management fees and interest payable, were £(4.4 million) or 0.9p per share (six months to 30 June 2023: £3.9 million or 0.9p per share). The investment income of £19.9 million comprises £4.3 million of income in the current period and £15.6 million of historic investment income as detailed in Note 2 of the accounts.
The Company's ongoing charges figure is calculated in accordance with the Association of Investment Companies (AIC) recommended methodology and was 1.30% (annualised) for the period to 30 June 2024 (year to 31 December 2023: 1.35%).
As stated in its 2021 prospectus, the Company invests in a diversified portfolio of high-quality operational infrastructure assets which provide essential physical structures, systems and/or services to allow economies and communities to function effectively. The Company invests in both yielding and growth infrastructure assets which the Manager believes offer strong downside protection and typically offer strong inflation protection.
The Company invests globally, with a primary focus on developed OECD markets, with the majority of its investments in Europe and North America. The Company's portfolio is diversified across infrastructure sectors.
In each case, the Manager invests where it believes it can generate the most attractive risk‑adjusted returns.
The Company focuses on gaining exposure to infrastructure assets via co-investments alongside leading third-party private direct infrastructure asset investment managers who are acting as general partner or manager of a fund in which Pantheon, or any investment scheme, pooled investment vehicle or portfolio fund managed by Pantheon, has invested or may invest ('Sponsors'). In doing so, the Company may invest on its own or alongside other institutional clients of the Manager.
The Company may also invest in other direct or single asset investment opportunities originated by the Manager or by other third-party asset sourcing partners. The Company does not invest in private funds targeting a diversified portfolio of infrastructure investments.
The Company invests and manages its assets with the objective of spreading risk and, in doing so, is subject to the following investment restrictions, which are measured at the time of investment:
In addition, the Company does not invest in infrastructure assets whose principal operations are in any of the following sectors (each a 'Restricted Sector'):
and efficient conventional power assets)
The Company may invest in infrastructure assets whose principal operations are not in a Restricted Sector, but that nonetheless have some exposure to a Restricted Sector (for example, a diversified freight rail transportation asset that has some exposure to the coal sector), provided that: (i) no more than 15% of any such infrastructure asset's total revenues are derived from Restricted Sectors; and (ii) no more than 5% of total revenues across the Portfolio (measured on a look-through basis) will be so derived.

The important events that have occurred during the period under review, the key factors influencing the financial statements and the principal uncertainties for the remaining six months of the financial year are set out in the Chair's statement and the Investment Manager's report. The principal risks facing the Company are substantially unchanged since the date of the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2023 and continue to be as set out in that report on pages 69 to 71. Risks faced by the Company include, but are not limited to, market conditions, political and regulatory changes, operational performance, returns target, investor sentiment, lack of suitable investment opportunities, liquidity management including level and cost of debt, portfolio concentration risk, over-reliance on the Investment Manager, tax status and legislation, third‑party providers, cyber security, and climate change risks.
Each Director confirms that, to the best of his or her knowledge:

INTERIM REPORT 2024 STRATEGIC REPORT GOVERNANCE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
We have been engaged by Pantheon Infrastructure Plc ('the Company') to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half‑yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2024 which comprises the Income statement, Statement of changes in equity, Balance sheet, Cash flow statement, and Notes 1 to 22. We have read the other information contained in the half‑yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2024 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with FRS 104 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) (UK) 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
As disclosed in Note 1, the annual financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard FRS 104 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the basis for conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that management have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that management have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed.
This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with this ISRE; however, future events or conditions may cause the entity to cease to continue as a going concern.
The Directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.
In preparing the half-yearly financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Company'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 Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
In reviewing the half-yearly report, we are responsible for expressing to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report. Our conclusion, including our conclusions relating to going concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit procedures, as described in the basis for conclusion paragraph in this report.
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK) "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" issued by the Financial Reporting Council. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company, for our work, for this report or for the conclusions we have formed.

INTERIM REPORT 2024 STRATEGIC REPORT GOVERNANCE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OTHER INFORMATION
Pantheon Infrastructure Plc (the 'Company') is a listed closed‑end investment company incorporated in England and Wales on 9 September 2021, with registered company number 13611678. The Company began trading on 15 November 2021 when the Company's shares were admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange. The registered office of the Company is Link Company Matters Limited, Central Square, 29 Wellington Street, Leeds, England, LS1 4DL.
The Company applied FRS 102 and the Statement of Recommended Practice ("SORP") for the year ended 31 December 2023 in its financial statements. The financial statements for the six months to 30 June 2024 have therefore been prepared in accordance with FRS 104: Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023. They have also been prepared on the assumption that approval as an investment trust will continue to be granted. The Company's condensed financial statements are presented in GBP and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand pounds (£'000) except when indicated otherwise.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the SORP for the financial statements of investment trust companies and venture capital trusts issued by the Association of Investment Companies ("AIC") in July 2022.
The financial information contained in this interim report, the comparative figures for the six months ended 30 June 2023 and the comparative information for the year ended 31 December 2023 do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2024, and the six months ended 30 June 2023, has not been audited but has been reviewed by the Company's Auditor and their report can be found on page 27. The annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the Auditor was: (i) unqualified; (ii) did not include a reference to any matters which the Auditor drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying the report; and (iii) did not contain statements under section 498 (2) and (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements comprise the results of the Company only. The Company has control over a number of subsidiaries. Where the Company owns a subsidiary that is held as part of the investment portfolio and its value to the Company is through its fair value rather than as the medium through which the group carries out business, the Company excludes it from consolidation. The subsidiaries have not been consolidated in the financial statements under FRS 102, but are included at fair value within investments in accordance with 9.9C(a) of FRS 102.
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis and under the historical cost basis of accounting, modified to include the revaluation of certain investments at fair value.
The Directors have made an assessment of going concern, taking into account the Company's current performance and financial position as at 30 June 2024.
In addition, the Directors have assessed the outlook, which considers the potential further impact of ongoing geopolitical uncertainties as increases in the cost of living, persistent inflation, interest rate uncertainty and the impact of climate change on the Company's Portfolio, using the information available up to the date of issue of the financial statements.
In reaching this conclusion, the Board considered budgeted and projected results of the business, including projected cash flows, various downside modelling scenarios and the risks that could impact the Company's liquidity.
Having performed their assessment, the Directors considered it appropriate to prepare the financial statements of the Company on a going concern basis. The Company has sufficient financial resources and liquidity, is well placed to manage business risks in the current economic environment, and can continue operations for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issue of these financial statements.
CONTINUED
The Directors are of the opinion that the Company is engaged in a single segment of business, being investment in infrastructure assets to generate investment returns while preserving capital. The financial information used by the Directors and Investment Manager to allocate resources and manage the Company presents the business as a single segment comprising a homogeneous portfolio.
The preparation of financial statements requires the Company and Investment Manager to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of investments at fair value at the financial reporting date and the reported fair value movements during the reporting period. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the investments at fair value in future years.
The fair values for the Company's investments are established by the Directors after discussion with the Investment Manager using valuation techniques in accordance with the International Private Equity and Venture Capital ("IPEV") guidelines. Valuations are based on periodic valuations provided by the Sponsors of the investments and recorded up to the measurement date. Such valuations are necessarily dependent upon the reasonableness of the valuations by the Sponsor of the underlying assets. In the absence of contrary information, the valuations are assumed to be reliable. These valuations are reviewed periodically for reasonableness and recorded up to the measurement date. The Sponsor is usually the best placed party to determine the appropriate valuation. The annual and quarterly reports received from the Sponsors are reviewed by the Investment Manager to ensure consistency and appropriateness of approach to reported valuations. The valuations are approved by Pantheon's Valuation Committee.
The supplementary revenue and capital columns are prepared under guidance published in the SORP issued by the AIC. The Company holds underlying investments through its wholly owned subsidiary Pantheon Infrastructure Holdings LP ("PIH LP"), with both realised and unrealised gains and income, allocated to the Capital Reserve. Distributions from PIH LP to the Company are recognised within the Revenue or Capital column of the Income Statement when the Company's rights as a Limited Partner to receive payment have been established, with income distributions made to PINT following an underlying income, dividend, or capital distribution from an investment held by PIH LP. The classification between revenue and capital of the distribution to PINT is based on the classification of the underlying distribution received by PIH LP.
£15.6 million of investment income relates to distributions from infrastructure investments received by PIH LP prior to 31 December 2023, previously recorded as an unrealised gain on fair value through profit or loss, which have been distributed from PIH LP to the Company in the current period.

The Company is an investment trust and is therefore not subject to tax on capital gains. Deferred tax is not provided on capital gains and losses arising on the revaluation or disposal of investments because the Company meets (and intends to meet for the foreseeable future) the conditions for approval as an investment trust. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of management and other expenses in excess of taxable income as they will only be recoverable to the extent that there is sufficient future taxable revenue.
As at 30 June 2024, the Company had no unprovided deferred tax liabilities.
At 30 June 2024, excess management expenses are estimated to be £12.2 million (30 June 2023: £5.0 million).
Earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing profit for the period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares in issue during the period. As there were no dilutive instruments outstanding for the six months ended 30 June 2024, there is no difference between basic and diluted earnings per share as shown below:

The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to minimise the effect of fluctuations in the value of the investment portfolio from movements in exchange rates. As at 30 June 2024, there were 26 contracts due to expire in the next twelve months with a valuation of £8,577,000. The remaining contracts due to expire after the twelve months following period end were valued as a liability of £746,000.
The fair value of these contracts is recorded in the Balance Sheet. No contracts are designated as hedging instruments and consequently all changes in fair value are taken through profit or loss.
As at 30 June 2024, the notional amount of the forward foreign exchange contracts held by the Company was £364.3 million (30 June 2023: £325.1 million, 31 December 2023: £340.3 million).

The Company entered into a £62.5 million RCF with Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets in December 2022. In June 2023, this was increased by £52.5 million, bringing the RCF total to £115 million. As part of the increase, the Company diversified its lender group through the introduction of The Royal Bank of Scotland International Limited alongside Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets.
The RCF is denominated in GBP, with the option to be utilised in other major currencies. The rate of interest is the relevant currency benchmark plus an initial margin of 2.85% per annum, reducing to 2.65% once certain expansions thresholds have been met. A commitment fee of 1.00% per annum is payable on undrawn amounts, and the tenor of the RCF is three years from December 2022. The facility is secured against the assets held in the Company's subsidiary, PIH LP.
Borrowing costs associated with the RCF are shown as interest payable and similar expenses in Note 6 to these financial statements.
The RCF includes loan to value covenants. The Company complied with all covenants throughout the financial period.

During the six months to 30 June 2024, 3,265,000 Ordinary Shares were bought back in the market, to be held in treasury (six months ended 30 June 2023: 1,185,000, year ended 31 December 2023: 7,385,000) at a total cost, including stamp duty, of £2,771,000 (six months ended 30 June 2023: £979,000, year ended 31 December 2023: £5,824,000).
NAV per share is calculated by dividing net assets in the Balance Sheet attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at the end of the period.

The Company has ownership and control over two wholly owned entities which are therefore deemed to be subsidiaries by the Board.
i. PIH LP was incorporated on 5 November 2021 with a registered address in the State of Delaware, National Registered Agents, Inc., 209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware, 19801, USA and is wholly owned by the Company.
The Company holds an investment in PIH LP. In accordance with FRS 102, the Company does not consolidate PIH LP on the grounds it does not carry out business through the subsidiary and that it is held exclusively with a view to subsequent resale. It is therefore considered part of an investment portfolio.
PIH LP holds a portfolio of investments that are measured at fair value. The Company holds a 99.9% investment in PIH LP, with the remaining holding being held by Pantheon Infrastructure Holdings GP LLC ("PIH GP").
ii. PIH GP was incorporated on 5 November 2021 with a registered address in the State of Delaware, National Registered Agents, Inc., 209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware, 19801, USA and is wholly owned by the Company.
PIH GP is immaterial, it is therefore excluded from consolidation. This treatment is supported by the Companies Act 2006, section 405 (2), whereby a subsidiary undertaking may be excluded from consolidation if its inclusion is not material for the purpose of giving a true and fair view.
CONTINUED
The fair value is the amount at which the asset could be sold in an orderly transaction between market participants, at the measurement date, other than a forced liquidation sale.
The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Categorisation within the hierarchy is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the relevant assets as follows:
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation at the end of each reporting period.

The fair value of these investments and derivatives – financial instruments is recorded in the Balance Sheet as at the period end.
There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the period, nor have there been any transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 during the period.
Financial assets and liabilities are either measured at fair value or, where measured at amortised cost, their carrying value is a close approximation of their fair value.
The majority of the assets held within Level 3 are valued on a discounted cash flow basis; hence, the valuations are sensitive to the discount rate assumed in the valuation of each asset. Other significant unobservable inputs include inflation and interest rate assumptions used to project future cash flows and the forecast cash flows themselves.
The majority of assets held within Level 3 have revenues that are linked, partially linked or in some way correlated, to inflation.
The valuations are sensitive to changes in interest rates. These comprise a wide range of interest rates from short-term deposit rates to longer-term borrowing rates across a broad range of debt products.
The amounts payable to the Investment Manager, together with the details of the Investment Management Agreement, and outstanding amounts are disclosed in Note 3.
The fees paid to the Company's Board for the six months to 30 June 2024 totalled £95,000 (six months ended 30 June 2023: £90,000, year ended 31 December 2023: £183,000). There were no other identifiable related parties at the period end.
At 30 June 2024, the Company had undrawn commitments of £10.1 million outstanding in respect of infrastructure assets (30 June 2023: £32.9 million, 31 December 2023: £15.7 million).
PINT assesses its performance using a variety of measures that are not specifically defined under FRS 102 and are therefore termed APMs. The APMs used may not be directly comparable with those used by other companies. These APMs provide additional information as to how the Company has performed over the period and allow the Board, management and stakeholders to compare its performance.
| APM | Details | Calculation | Reconciliation to FRS 102 |
How has PINT performed? | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NAV Total Return | Total return comprises the investment return from the Portfolio and income from any cash balances, net of management, operating and finance costs. It also includes foreign exchange movement and movement in the fair value of derivatives and taxes. |
It is calculated as the total return of £42.7 million (period to 30 June 2023: £14.9 million), as shown in the Income Statement, as a percentage of the opening NAV of £504.0 million (period to 30 June 2023: £474.8 million). |
The calculation uses the total comprehensive income reported in the Income Statement and net assets reported in the Balance Sheet, both being FRS 102 measures. |
Total return for the period to 30 June 2024 was 8.5% (period to 30 June 2023: 3.1%). |
|
| Net asset value per share |
A measure of the NAV per share in the Company. |
It is calculated as the NAV divided by the total number of shares in issue at the balance sheet date. |
The calculation uses FRS 102 measures and is set out in Note 17 to the accounts. |
NAV per share at 30 June 2024 was 113.9p per share (31 December 2023: 106.6p per share). |
|
| Annual distribution | This measure reflects the dividends distributed to shareholders in respect of each year. |
The dividend is measured on a pence per share basis. |
The calculation uses FRS 102 measures, set out in Note 9 to the accounts. |
First interim dividend of 2.1p per share declared, to be paid on 27 October 2024. The Company intends to continue paying dividends on a semi‑annual basis in line with its progressive dividend policy. |
