TINC again publishes strong interim results for the first twelve months of the
extended fiscal year 2022-2023


Antwerp, September 6, 2023, 7h00 CET Regulated information



Manu Vandenbulcke, CEO:


"With an interim net result of € 36,6 million or € 1,01 per share for the first 12 months of the current extended
fiscal year, TINC achieves once again excellent results. This reflects the strong performance of our four
investment segments. The realised gains on the sale of the stake in the business service center Bioversneller
and on the partnership of Dutch fiber company GlasDraad BV with Glaspoort illustrate the potential for value
creation within our diversified portfolio. Furthermore, most of our participations benefit from a thorough policy
of interest rate hedging, which overall limits the impact of interest rate increases. The investment rhythm was
also strong with € 100,3 million of new commitments and € 74,6 million effectively invested and this in a
challenging market environment. Based on this excellent interim result, TINC targets a gross distribution to its
shareholders of € 0,84 per share for the current extended fiscal year of 18 months."



Philip Maeyaert, chairman of the Supervisory Board:

"This interim result highlights the quality of TINC's investment portfolio. The portfolio is the result of the
strategic focus of TINC on growing its four segments public infrastructure, digital infrastructure, infrastructure
for the energy transition and selective real estate. With a solid balance sheet, a positive net cash position on
June 30 and the prospect of strong cash flows, TINC is well armed to continue investing enthusiastically in the
infrastructure for the world of tomorrow."
