CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF LISTING WITH OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE

CK Infrastructure Holdings Limited ("CKI", the "Company" or the "Group") was listed in July 1996. This year's outstanding interim performance aptly marks the 30th anniversary milestone.

For the six months ended 30th June, 2026, net profit was HK$21,252 million, an increase of 389% compared with the same period last year. This exceptional growth is attributed to sizeable gains generated from the divestments of UK Power Networks ("UKPN") and UK Rails. These gains epitomise CKI's value creation capability as well as the embedded value of CKI's quality businesses throughout its investment portfolio.

CKI's financial position is stronger than ever with net cash amounting to HK$33.9 billion as at 30th June, 2026. The Group has ample capacity to pursue large scale capital intensive projects.

Over the last three decades, CKI has grown from strength to strength, expanding from initial investments in Hong Kong and Mainland China to Australia, United Kingdom ("UK"), Continental Europe, Canada and New Zealand. The breadth of the Group's portfolio has grown from power plants, toll roads and bridges, and infrastructure materials to encompass electricity and gas distribution, water and wastewater services, renewable energy, waste management, and household infrastructure. CKI is today one of the leading infrastructure players on the global stage.

During the period under review, the volatile market conditions that have prevailed globally showed no sign of diminishing. Geopolitical tensions, energy crises, inflationary pressure, high unemployment, broad government deficits and interest rate uncertainty all continued to be at the forefront of challenges for businesses around the world. Nonetheless, with a resilient business model, prudent management and strong financials, CKI is well-positioned to capitalise on future growth opportunities as well as to weather any possible turbulence.

DIVIDEND GROWTH

The Board of Directors of CKI (the "Board") has declared an interim dividend for 2026 of HK$0.75 per share (2025: HK$0.73 per share), representing 2.7% growth over the corresponding period last year. The interim dividend will be paid on Wednesday, 23rd September, 2026, to shareholders whose names appear on the Register of Members of the Company at the close of business on Thursday, 10th September, 2026. As at the date hereof, the Company does not hold any treasury shares whether in the Central Clearing and Settlement System, or otherwise.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Across the diverse catalogue of businesses, the Group has delivered a satisfactory operating performance.

Power Assets

Profit contribution from Power Assets Holdings Limited ("Power Assets") was HK$5,294 million, an increase of 383% over the same period last year. This marked growth is mainly attributed to UKPN's disposal gain. The operational performance for both Hong Kong and overseas businesses continued to be solid.

United Kingdom Infrastructure Portfolio

Profit contribution from the UK was HK$14,784 million, a notable 565% increase over the same period last year (in local currency terms, this amounted to a 589% increase). This is attributable to the divestment gains generated from UKPN and UK Rails.

Excluding UKPN and UK Rails, all other operations in the UK portfolio performed well, posting substantial increase in operating profit.

Northumbrian Water ("NWG") has continued to deliver satisfactory returns. In March 2026, CKI and its partners in NWG made an additional investment in NWG with an equity injection of GBP400 million. This funding supports the delivery of NWG's plans to strengthen infrastructure, improve environmental performance and further enhance services. During the period under review, NWG has been named the most trusted water company in England and Wales in the latest survey conducted by Consumer Council for Water, and has once again topped water regulator Ofwat's Customer Measure of Experience (C-MeX) table, the only company which has achieved such ranking two years in a row. In addition, NWG was crowned "Water Company of the Year" at the Water Industry Awards 2026 by Utility Week.

Operational performance of all three gas companies - Northern Gas Networks ("NGN"), Wales & West Utilities ("WWU") and Phoenix Energy were good. NGN continued to participate in low carbon hydrogen projects. WWU received its 13th consecutive RoSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) Gold Award for outstanding health and safety performance, and Phoenix Energy's renewable gas research projects were awarded regulatory funding.

Seabank Power and UK Renewables Energy Group both recorded satisfactory operating performance.

Australian Infrastructure Portfolio

Profit contribution from Australia was HK$817 million, an increase of 3% over last year (in local currency terms, profit contribution decreased by 6%). During the period under review, Energy Developments Pty Limited reported a weaker performance, and development costs for hydrogen projects incurred by Australian Gas Infrastructure Group ("AGIG") were booked.

AGIG, which consists of Australian Gas Networks ("AGN"), Multinet Gas Networks and Dampier Bunbury Pipeline achieved a steady operational performance. The new regulatory period for AGN's South Australia business commenced on 1st July, 2026 with more favourable allowed returns as compared to the previous regulatory period. In April, AGN completed the mains replacement programme for South Australia. This project, funded by the regulator, involved replacing over 4,200 km of aged cast-iron and steel pipes with polyethylene. Given the global economic landscape and ongoing disruption to energy markets, maximising energy security has become a major focus of the Australian government, and natural gas is high on the agenda. Our Group's gas companies in Australia are well-positioned to make a meaningful contribution to the country in this respect.

The Group's power distribution businesses in Australia comprise SA Power Networks, Victoria Power Networks ("VPN") and United Energy ("UE"). They have all performed well and have delivered good profit contributions to the Group.

VPN and UE received their final determinations for the new regulatory reset period which commenced on 1st July, 2026. These provide for higher allowable returns and increased capital investments for network enhancement as well as for supporting strong projected growth driven by electrification and data centre demand.

Infrastructure Portfolio in Continental Europe

In Continental Europe, profit contribution was HK$477 million, representing a 10% growth (in local currency terms, this marked an increase of 5%). The result was driven by strong contribution from ista.

During the period, ista continued to implement its AI strategy to further enhance operational efficiency. In addition, ista has obtained a rating of BBB from S&P Global Ratings.

The reconstruction of Dutch Enviro Energy's waste-to-energy plant in Rozenburg following the fire in 2023 has been completed and the resumption of electricity generation is on track for recommissioning in the second half of the year.

Canadian Infrastructure Portfolio

Profit contribution from Canada was stable at HK$278 million, an increase of 1% (in local currency terms, this represented a decrease of around 2%).

Reliance Home Comfort reported satisfactory performance. The company has completed an acquisition to expand its Ontario portfolio. It has also received an award from Great Place to Work Canada, ranking first under the Real Estate and Construction Category.

Both Canadian Midstream Assets and Canadian Power reported a stable performance.

Despite lower traffic volume as compared to last year, Park'N Fly implemented cost containment measures and results are in line with expectations.

New Zealand Portfolio

Profit contribution from New Zealand was HK$91 million, marking an increase of 14% over last year (in local currency terms, this represented an increase of 12%).

Enviro NZ achieved stable growth. The company completed the acquisition of a waste management operation, expanding into the Southland region.

Wellington Electricity reported its first full interim results under the new regulatory period which commenced on 1st April, 2025 with higher allowable returns permitted.

Hong Kong and Mainland China Business

In Hong Kong and Mainland China, CKI's portfolio recorded a net loss of HK$115 million. Volumes and prices remained weak for the cement, concrete and asphalt businesses, adversely affecting performance.

NET CASH POSES STRONGER VANTAGE POSITION FOR ACQUISITIONS

CKI has always maintained a robust financial platform and it has been further strengthened as a result of the divestments of UKPN and UK Rails. As at 30th June, 2026, net cash on hand was HK$33.9 billion. The Group is in a stronger vantage position to study any potential acquisitions.

S&P Global Ratings has reaffirmed CKI's credit rating of "A/Stable".

SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES

All of our Group's operations implement sustainability initiatives to contribute to their respective countries' net zero goals. These programmes include smart grid solutions, vehicle charging infrastructure, as well as renewable energy generation and battery storage. In addition, low carbon fuel options, such as hydrogen and biomethane, and carbon capture and storage are also being studied.

OUTLOOK

The volatility in global markets is expected to persist in the foreseeable future. Tightened liquidity and higher interest rates have heightened economic uncertainty. While the challenges in the macro environment may pose difficulties generally in the business environment, CKI is well-positioned to capitalise on upcoming opportunities in the market. The Group's strong financial position, good track record in operations, and value creation capabilities give us a good edge in studying new investment opportunities.

We will also continue to leverage on our successful partnerships with other member companies of the CK Group, including CK Asset and Power Assets, who also possess ample cash on hand, to invest in mutually attractive new projects. Nonetheless, when approaching potential investments, we will continue to adhere to our strict financial discipline and not succumb to any "must-win" mentality.

Organic growth plans for the Group's businesses are also in place. The strong management teams of each of the businesses are all very well prepared for prudent expansions with meaningful projected returns.

Our commitment to growth and our adherence to strict fiscal management are resolute as we move into the second half of 2026 and beyond.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my continued thanks to the Board, our staff and our shareholders for their ongoing support.

VICTOR T K LI

Chairman

FINANCIAL REVIEW

FINANCIAL RESOURCES, TREASURY ACTIVITIES AND GEARING RATIO

The Group's capital expenditure and investments were funded from cash on hand, internal cash generation, loans, notes, bonds, share placement and other project loans.

As at 30th June, 2026, cash and bank deposits on hand amounted to HK$55,279 million and the total borrowings of the Group amounted to HK$21,384 million, which included Hong Kong dollar notes of HK$260 million and foreign currency borrowings of HK$21,124 million. Of the total borrowings, 11 per cent were repayable in 2026, 87 per cent were repayable between 2027 and 2030 and 2 per cent were repayable beyond 2030. The Group's financing activities continue to be well received and fully supported by its bankers.

The Group adopts conservative treasury policies in cash and financial management. To achieve better risk control and minimise the cost of funds, the Group's treasury activities are centralised. Cash is generally placed in short-term deposits mostly denominated in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars, Australian dollars, New Zealand dollars, British pound, Canadian dollars, Euros or Renminbi. The Group's liquidity and financing requirements are reviewed regularly. The Group will continue to maintain a strong capital structure when considering financing for new investments or maturity of bank loans.

The Group has changed to a net cash position as at 30th June, 2026, from a net debt position with a net debt to net total capital ratio of 8.9 per cent at the year end of 2025, primarily due to the proceeds received from the disposal of a joint venture.

The net debt to net total capital ratio would be 24.0 per cent by sharing of net debt in infrastructure investment portfolio on a look-through basis, which was based on HK$49,728 million of net debt and HK$207,597 million of net total capital. This ratio was 48.5 per cent at the year end of 2025.

To minimise currency risk exposure in respect of its investments in other countries, the Group generally hedges those investments with (i) currency swaps and (ii) the appropriate level of borrowings denominated in the local currencies. The Group also entered into certain interest rate swaps to mitigate interest rate risks. As at 30th June, 2026, the notional amounts of these derivative instruments amounted to HK$42,874 million.

CHARGE ON GROUP ASSETS

As at 30th June, 2026, certain assets were pledged to secure bank borrowings totalling HK$1,514 million granted to the Group.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As at 30th June, 2026, the Group was subject to the following contingent liabilities:

HK$ million
Performance bond indemnities	147
Sub-contractor warranties	7
Total	154

EMPLOYEES

The Group, including its subsidiaries but excluding affiliated companies, employs a total of 2,031 employees. Employees' cost (excluding directors' emoluments) amounted to HK$517 million. The Group ensures that the pay levels of its employees are competitive and that its employees are rewarded on a performance related basis within the general framework of the Group's salary and bonus system.

Preferential subscription of 2,978,000 new shares of the Company was given to those employees who had subscribed for shares of HK$1.00 each in the Company at HK$12.65 per share on the flotation of the Company in 1996. The Group does not have any share option scheme for employees.

14.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Except for certain investments in securities which are stated at cost, the carrying values of all financial assets and financial liabilities approximate to their fair values.

The fair value of the Group's financial instruments and non-financial instruments are grouped into Level 1 to 3 with reference to the observability and significance of the inputs used in the valuation technique as follows:

Level 1:        Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:        Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Level 3:        Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

At 30th June, 2026, investment properties amounting to HK$381 million (HK$381 million at 31st December, 2025) and unlisted investment in securities amounting to HK$46 million (HK$46 million at 31st December, 2025) were measured at fair value based on value inputs, other than quoted prices, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Other investments amounting to HK$1,189 million (HK$1,189 million at 31st December, 2025) were measured at fair value based on value inputs that are not observable market data but change of these value inputs to reasonable possible alternatives would not have material effect on the Group's results and financial position.

Derivative financial instruments were measured at fair value based on value inputs, other than quoted prices, that are observable either directly or indirectly.

In light of the secondary listing of the Company in the UK, the Code was updated with the relevant requirements set out in Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdraw) Act 2018. The Code is reviewed and revised by the Company to reflect any amendments to Appendix C3 to the HK Listing Rules and the above mentioned relevant laws and regulations from time to time.

All Directors have confirmed that they have complied with the required standards set out in the Code regarding their dealings in securities of the Company during the six months ended 30th June, 2026.

The Board has established written guidelines no less exacting than the Code for relevant employees in respect of their dealings in the Company's securities. The Company has adopted a policy on handling of confidential information, information disclosure, and securities dealing, applicable to the Group's employees when they are in possession of confidential or inside information in relation to the Group. The policy satisfies the requirements under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance and the HK Listing Rules. The Policy also satisfies the UK Listing Rules, the UK Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules and the UK Market Abuse Regulation and other applicable laws and regulations following the Company's secondary listing on the main market for listed securities of LSE. The policy is available on the Company's intranet and disseminated to the employees.

(3)      RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROLS

The Board has the overall responsibility for the Group's risk management and internal control systems and for reviewing their effectiveness.

The Internal Audit function provides independent and objective assurance to support the Board and management in the effective discharge of their risk management and internal control responsibilities. Internal Audit adopts a risk-based approach to evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of key controls across financial, operational and compliance areas. The Head of Internal Audit reports functionally to the Audit Committee and administratively to the Deputy Chairman and Co-Managing Director, thereby maintaining appropriate independence and objectivity.

Internal Audit prepares a risk-based audit plan with reference to the Group's risk profile, principal and emerging risks and prior audit results. The annual audit plan and any material changes thereto are reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee. Internal Audit monitors the implementation of agreed remediation actions and reports audit results and progress to the management and the Audit Committee on a regular basis, supporting the Board's oversight of the Group's risk management and internal control systems.

The Board, through the Audit Committee, has conducted a review of the effectiveness of the risk management and internal control systems of the Group for the six months ended 30th June, 2026.

OTHER INFORMATION

PURCHASE, SALE OR REDEMPTION OF LISTED SECURITIES

During the six months ended 30th June, 2026, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has purchased, sold or redeemed any of the Company's listed securities (including sale of treasury share). As at 30th June, 2026, the Company and its subsidiaries did not hold any treasury shares whether in the Central Clearing and Settlement System, or otherwise.

PRO RATA LOAN CAPITALISATION

In May 2026, the joint venture parties of CK William (a joint venture in which the Company has 40% equity interest) capitalised part of their respective pro rata loans to CK William. The Group capitalised A$467.5 million (equivalent to approximately HK$2,653 million) of its loan to CK William, being part of the Group's funding contribution to CK William approved by the independent shareholders at the special general meeting of the Company in March 2017. The Group's 40% equity interest in CK William remains unchanged subsequently.

RISK FACTORS

The Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects may be affected by risks and uncertainties directly or indirectly pertaining to the Group's businesses. The risk factors set out below are those that could result in the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects differing materially from expected or historical results. Such factors are by no means exhaustive or comprehensive, and there may be other risks in addition to those shown below which are not known to the Group or which may not be material now but could turn out to be material in the future. In addition, this Interim Report does not constitute a recommendation or advice to invest in the shares or other securities of the Company and investors are advised to make their own judgement or consult their own investment advisors before making any investment in the shares or other securities of the Company.

GLOBAL ECONOMY

Trade tensions and policy uncertainty, currency fluctuations, supply chain disruptions, fluctuation of commodity prices and energy costs, continuing geopolitical tensions and increasing climate risks could create uncertainties and volatility in the global economy and financial markets. Global economic growth could falter if trade tensions escalate, inflation surges, market sentiment deteriorates, consumer confidence weakens or asset price further declines.

The Group is a diversified infrastructure investment company with businesses presently in Hong Kong, Mainland China, the United Kingdom ("UK"), Continental Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. Any adverse economic, social and/or political conditions in those countries and places in which the Group operates may potentially impact on the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations, asset values and liabilities.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND INTEREST RATES

The industries in which the Group operates are affected by the economic conditions of the various places where the Group's investments or operations are located, the population growth of these places, mark to market value of investment securities, the currency environment, inflation impact and interest rate cycles. There can be no assurance that the combination of the above factors the Group experiences in the future will not adversely affect its businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

The interest rate cycle has impact on the aggregate demand from all sectors, which may in turn affect the businesses of the Group. While the Group regularly reviews its exposure to interest rate fluctuations and may manage such exposure using hedging instruments, there can be no guarantee that the Group will not be affected by the interest rate exposure.

In particular, certain businesses and investments of the Group are subject to regulatory regimes in which local interest rates are taken into account in the calculation of the regulated cost of capital, which flows through to allowed revenue. There can be no assurance that any changes in the regulated cost of capital can be fully mitigated by the businesses. Furthermore, income from finance and treasury operations is dependent upon the capital markets, interest rate and currency environment, and the worldwide economic and market conditions, and therefore there can be no assurance that changes in these conditions will not adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects. The volatility in the financial markets may also adversely affect the income to be derived by the Group from its finance and treasury activities.

CONCENTRATION IN GEOGRAPHICAL MARKETS AND BUSINESS TYPES

The business operation of the Group may be viewed as substantially concentrated in certain geographical markets or in one particular or more types of business. If and when the Group's operations are exposed to any deterioration in the economic, social or political conditions as well as any incidence of social unrest, strike, riot, civil disturbance or disobedience or terrorism, or even outbreaks of epidemics in such geographical markets or business segments, the adverse circumstances may materially disrupt the Group's operations and, in turn, impact the revenue, profitability and financial condition of the Group.

HIGHLY COMPETITIVE MARKETS

Unlike the Group's regulated businesses, which do not experience significant competition, some of the Group's non-regulated business, such as waste management, off-airport car parking, cement and household infrastructure businesses, face competition across the diverse markets in which they operate. New market entrants and intensified price competition among existing market players, product innovation or technology advancement could adversely impact the Group's non-regulated businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects. Non-regulated companies operate in dynamic environments with relation to market or customer demands. Misreading market or customer trends may weaken competitiveness. Competition risks faced by the Group include (a) possible restrictions on the access by the shuttle buses operated by the Group's off-airport car parking businesses as imposed by the airport authorities that operates the on-airport car parking businesses; (b) the availability of rail link services from city centre to airport which may reduce the usage of the off-airport car park; and (c) significant competition and pricing pressure from other competitors attempting to capture a higher level of market share. Such risks may adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

INFRASTRUCTURE MARKET

The Group has historically focused, and continues to focus, its portfolio on regulated businesses in the power and infrastructure sectors. The infrastructure market is highly regulated. Some of the investments owned by the Group in the power and infrastructure sectors (for example, water, gas and electricity) are subject to regulatory pricing and strict adherence must be made to the licence requirements, codes and guidelines established by the relevant regulatory authorities from time to time. Failure to comply with these licence requirements, codes or guidelines may lead to penalties, or, in extreme circumstances, amendment, suspension or cancellation of the relevant licences by the authorities. Interest and inflation rates, high energy cost, energy windfall tax, cap on the energy retail prices in certain markets as well as tougher stances adopted by regulators may affect the returns of the Group's infrastructure businesses. Any operational practices that are significantly out of step with community expectations can lead to concerns with regulators or local or national governments, and may ultimately lead to more stringent regulatory resets, regulatory oversight as well as negative publicity that could also have a reputational impact.

The distribution and transmission networks of the Group's utilities investments are also exposed to supply interruptions. If an extreme weather and climate event, earthquake, storm, flood, fire, sabotage, terrorist attack, outbreaks of epidemics or any other unplanned event interrupts service, the loss of cash flow resulting from the interruption and the cost of recovery from network damage could be considerable and potentially cause poor customer perceptions and may also lead to claims and litigation. Moreover, some losses from events such as terrorist attacks may not be recoverable. Military conflicts and geopolitical instability may impact energy supply at risk and cause price volatility. Increases in the number or duration of supply interruptions could result in material increases in the costs associated with the operation of the distribution and transmission networks. The capacity factor (load factor) of the wind farms acquired by the Group could also be affected by the wind conditions, which could result in the fluctuation of revenues. Some investments in non-regulated business may also be impacted by regulatory reform. All of these uncertain factors could have a material adverse effect on the businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects of the Group.

CRUDE OIL MARKETS

The Group's investment in Husky Midstream Limited Partnership ("HMLP") comprises oil pipelines, storage facilities and ancillary assets in Canada. Its results of operation and financial condition may be dependent on the prices received for refined products and crude oil of Cenovus Energy Inc. ("Cenovus"). Fluctuation of crude oil prices could impact the value and quantity of Cenovus' oil production. HMLP also has other customers apart from Cenovus and their demand for HMLP's services may depend on prices received for their refined products and crude oil. Prices for refined products and crude oil are based on local and global supply and demand as well as availability and costs of transportation. Supply and demand may be affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, actions taken by the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), non-OPEC crude oil supply, social and political conditions in oil producing countries, the occurrence of natural disasters, general and specific economic conditions, technological developments, prevailing weather patterns and the availability of alternate sources of energy. Furthermore, HMLP is also susceptible to unforeseen pipeline releases at rivers or nature reserves. If the above events occurred or further occurred, it may adversely affect the Group's financial condition and results of operations.

CAPEX INVESTMENT

Capex investment plans for regulated businesses are proposed and planned based on the asset conditions, regulatory compliance and government policies and initiatives, such as net zero emission targets and hydrogen strategies. Aggressive targets could require huge capital investment in a short period of time which may raise concerns including the impact of tariff increases on customer affordability; limited availability of labour and resources in the construction industry impacting project delivery, where high infrastructure sector demand may further drag up project costs and financeability of the capital investment projects. Excess demand for financing may cause a mismatch in the actual cost of funding compared to the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) return allowed by the regulator.

A significant amount of capital expenditure is also required for the Group to acquire investments and to maintain the assets of its existing businesses. While the relevant asset companies have their own asset management plans, there is a risk that due to unforeseen events, capital expenditure required for the replacement of assets could exceed budgeted amounts and hence affect the businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects of the Group.

CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS

The Group is a global infrastructure group and is exposed to potential currency fluctuations in these countries and territories in which the Group operates, particularly with respect to U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars, Australian dollars, New Zealand dollars, British pounds sterling, Canadian dollars and Euros. The results of the Group are recorded in Hong Kong dollars but its various subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures may receive revenue and incur expenses in other currencies. Any currency fluctuations on translation of the accounts of these subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures and also on the repatriation of earnings, equity investments and loans may therefore impact the Group's financial condition, results of operations, asset values or liabilities.

To minimise currency risk exposure in respect of its investments in other countries, the Group generally hedges those investments with (i) currency swaps and (ii) an appropriate level of borrowings denominated in the local currencies. The Group has not entered into any speculative derivative transaction.

Although currency exposures have been managed by the Group, a depreciation or fluctuation of the currencies in which the Group conducts operations relative to the Hong Kong dollar could adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

CYBERSECURITY

With the rapid expansion of internet, networking, information and operational technology, coupled with swift development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, the incidence and severity of cyber fraud, cyber attacks and security breaches are escalating globally. As the Group's businesses focus on power and infrastructure sectors, they could be particularly prone to cyber attacks and security breaches due to their structural importance. The Group's critical utility, data and information assets are not immune from attack, damage or unauthorised access. Driven by increasing number of losses and claims, costs for cyber insurance have been increasing consistently over the past few years. Cybersecurity risks could significantly impact the operational and business performance, as well as the business reputation of the Group. The Group continuously strives to enhance the cybersecurity protection of its businesses.

There can be no assurance that the Group will be free from cyber fraud, cyber attacks or security breaches or that it will not experience any major damage to its assets or activities. Cyber fraud, cyber attacks or security breaches suffered by the Group's systems could result in significant impact on the Group's business reputation, businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects. As threats related to cybersecurity develop and grow, the Group and its businesses may also find it necessary to make further investments to enhance cybersecurity, which may impact the Group's results of operations and financial condition.

ACCELERATED DEVELOPMENT AND INTEGRATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

The rapid advancement of AI introduces increasing uncertainty to the Group's long-term strategic and operational planning.

If the Group fails to catch up with competitors who manage to use AI to drive profits and reduce costs, the Group's business performance and its ability to sustain competitive positioning in key markets may be significantly prejudiced.

At the operational level, greater reliance on digital platforms, AI customer service, smart-metering, network control systems, automation and data-driven processes increases the Group's exposure to new technology-related risks, including cybersecurity breaches, data-quality failures, AI-driven system errors, and intellectual property leakage, and other system-related incidents and disruption that may result in customer dissatisfaction, reputational damage, regulatory scrutiny or increases in operating costs.

Evolving AI-specific regulations in the Group's key markets may increase compliance and internal control burdens of the Group, and may necessitate redesign or restructuring of the Group's operational practices. These dynamics may lead to increased operating and compliance costs, and reduced competitiveness and profit margins.

LABOUR

The labour markets in which the Group operates are experiencing short and long term structural changes. Labour demand is increasingly constrained by skills shortages, demographic shifts, rising employee expectations and the pressure on cost of living. These conditions may result in higher employee turnover, increased operating costs and reduced workforce stability. The turnover of key personnel may impact the Group's businesses stability, performance and operations.

SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS

Geopolitical tensions have disrupted supply of raw materials, transportation and port operations. This has resulted in escalating costs, unpredictable lead time and quality issues, combined with widespread shortages of shipping availability. Additionally, the fluctuation in energy and oil prices has added complexity to the disruption. Global disruptions have impacted domestic supply chains. Specific domestic issues include shortage of labour which is particularly acute in some areas where the Group operates. There is no assurance that the situation will improve in the near future.

STRATEGIC PARTNERS

Certain businesses of the Group are conducted through non-wholly owned subsidiaries, associates, internal joint ventures, and, to a lesser extent, external joint ventures in which the Group shares control and strategic alliances have been formed by the Group with strategic or business partners. There can be no assurance that any of the external strategic or business partners will maintain their relationships with the Group. The Group may not be able to pursue its stated strategies with respect to its non-wholly owned subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. Furthermore, the joint venture partners may (a) have economic or business interests or goals that are inconsistent with those of the Group; (b) take actions contrary to the Group's policies or objectives; (c) undergo a change of control; (d) experience financial and other difficulties; or (e) be unable or unwilling to fulfil their obligations under the joint ventures, which may affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

IMPACT OF POSSIBLE ECONOMIC SANCTIONS ON BUSINESS PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS, CUSTOMERS OR BUSINESSES IN GENERAL

Governments and multinational organisations (including but not limited to the State Department and the Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States, the UK's HM Treasury, Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation or other UK government agencies, the European Union ("EU") or any member state thereof and the United Nations), from time to time administer certain laws and regulations that impose restrictions with respect to activities, transmission of funds or transactions with certain countries, governments, entities and individuals that are the subject of economic sanctions. There can be no assurance that such sanctions or other restrictions will not affect the jurisdictions in which the Group conducts its business, any of the Group's business partners, suppliers, customers or otherwise. To the extent that any such sanction or restriction is imposed in jurisdictions where the Group's business operates, the Group may need to cease operations in those jurisdictions and suffer losses in that regard. If any of the Group's business partners or suppliers are impacted by sanctions or restrictions, provision of goods, services or support by them may be disrupted or discontinued, which may affect the Group's ability to continue to operate related businesses. If any of the Group's business partners are affected by sanctions or restrictions, the discontinuation or disruption of strategic alliances with such business partners may also affect the Group's ability to continue to operate related businesses and/or may result in suspension of operations. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to obtain alternative goods, services, support or alliance it needs for the operation of its business, in a timely manner or at competitive terms, and no assurance that any compensation recoverable from business partners or suppliers for the discontinued or disrupted supply, service, support or alliance will be available or adequate. If any of the Group's customers are affected by sanctions or restrictions, the Group may be forced to discontinue the provision of services or goods to such customers and the Group will suffer losses in that regard. If any of the Group's assets are in the possession of such customers, there can be no assurance that such assets can be repossessed by the Group especially if such assets are located in countries or regions subject to sanctions or restrictions and no assurance that any compensation recoverable from such customers or insurers for the Group's failure to repossess such assets will be available. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial condition and results of operations.

MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

The Group has undertaken significant merger and acquisition activities in the past, and as part of its strategic growth plans, expects to continue to do so in the future if there are appropriate acquisition opportunities in the markets. In pursuit of new business opportunities, the Group is experiencing more intense competition where competing bidders are more aggressive in the valuation of the assets on the back of abundant market liquidity and lower return requirements, and a willingness to take market risk. Even for assets where there is a bid/ask spread between buyers and sellers, many sellers still have holding power and often decide to continue to hold the assets rather than sell below their reserve price. It is becoming increasingly common for sponsors to sell partial interests in assets while using continuation vehicles to hold remaining interests via other pockets of capital, which also reduces the opportunity set for wholly-owned control situations. Although due diligence and detailed analyses will be conducted in advance in prospective mergers and acquisitions, there can be no assurance that these can fully expose all hidden problems, potential liabilities and unresolved disputes that the target company may have. In addition, valuations and analyses on the target company conducted by the Group or by professionals alike are based on numerous assumptions, and there can be no assurance that those assumptions are correct or appropriate or that they will receive universal recognition. Relevant facts and circumstances used in the analyses could have changed over time, and new facts and evolving circumstances may come to light as to render the previous assumptions and the valuations and analyses based thereon obsolete.

Merger and acquisition, and disposal transactions are typically subject to negotiations and agreements to be entered into, and even if final agreements are entered into, may still be subject to merger, anti-trust, national security, foreign investment, foreign subsidy and other regulatory approvals by the competent authorities which may only approve the transactions subject to conditions, or prohibit the transactions. There can be no assurance that any such transactions or proposals will proceed, or any such approvals or other conditions would be obtained or satisfied and even if such approvals are obtained, third parties may initiate proceedings to appeal against such approvals. If a proposed transaction does not proceed or is prohibited, or the relevant approvals are revoked, and the transaction cannot be completed, the Group will have incurred significant expenses, such as legal, accounting and other costs in connection with the transaction, without realising its anticipated benefits, such as increased earnings, scale, competitive strength and market share. There might be longer and more complicated foreign investment approval processes in particular for "critical" infrastructure assets such as electricity and gas networks, and assets that handle data. Geopolitical tensions and trade policies have accelerated these trends as governments have responded with additional foreign investment regulations to protect local enterprises from foreign acquisitions and also to protect strategic assets from foreign ownership. Such foreign investment approval risks and timeline are now one of the key considerations of sellers to ensure transaction certainty. The Group may not necessarily be able to successfully integrate the target business into the Group and may not be able to derive any synergy from the acquisition, leading to an increase in costs, time and resources. For merger, acquisition and disposal activities undertaken overseas, the Group may also be exposed to different and changing political, social, legal and regulatory requirements at the local, national and international levels. The Group may also need to face different cultural issues when dealing with local employees, customers, governmental authorities and pressure groups.

IMPACT OF LOCAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL REGULATIONS

The local business risks in different countries and territories in which the Group operates could have a material impact on the businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects. The Group has investments in different countries and territories with different business cultures and commercial environments around the world. The Group is, and may increasingly become, exposed to different and changing political, social, legal, tax, regulatory and environmental requirements at the local, national or international level. Also, new guidelines, directives, policies or measures by governments, whether fiscal, tax, regulatory or environmental, or other competitive changes, may lead to increase in additional or unplanned operating expenses and capital expenditures, increase in market capacity, reduction in government subsidies, may pose a risk to the overall investment return of the Group's businesses and may delay or prevent the commercial operation of a business, which may result in loss of revenue and profits and adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations, growth prospects or reputation.

Political, regulatory and media attention has increased significantly towards privatised companies in countries in which the Group operates. Regulators in some of these countries have warned of increasingly onerous regulatory resets, and some major political parties are promoting policies to bring energy and water back into public ownership, which could potentially have serious and material consequences for the Group if such regulations and policies are enacted. Group companies are responding to these risks by focusing on their core strategies of delivering and outperforming regulatory outputs such as safety, reliability and customer service, at the lowest cost possible; by conveying the positive benefits to customers of the services they provide; and by engaging collaboratively with regulators and politicians to demonstrate the advantages of private ownership.

COMPLIANCE WITH PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION LEGISLATION

In the ordinary course of its operations, various businesses of the Group collect, store and use data that is protected by personal data protection laws in the different countries in which they operate. As regulatory focus on privacy issues continues to increase and worldwide laws and regulations concerning the handling of personal information expand and become more complex, potential risks related to personal data collection and use within the Group's businesses are expected to intensify.

In the event that any relevant business of the Group is unable to meet its obligations under applicable data protection laws, it may be subject to regulatory actions or civil claims. The expenses on remediation, costs of regulatory or legal actions, and monetary damages and/or reputational damage suffered as a result of such actions could have a material adverse effect on the Group's financial condition and results of operations.

HEALTH AND SAFETY LAWS AND REGULATIONS

Many aspects of the Group's businesses and their operations are inherently dangerous, such as the operation and maintenance of electricity generation and distribution businesses, and gas transmission and distribution businesses which have the potential to trigger operational hazards. In addition, certain operational aspects of the Group's businesses that are not currently regarded or proven to have adverse effects could be later found to be hazardous, such as the operations effected by electric and magnetic fields.

The Group's businesses are subject to laws and regulations governing health and safety matters to protect both the public, employees and contractors, who could potentially be harmed by these activities, as well as laws and regulations relating to pollution, the protection of the environment, and the use and disposal of hazardous substances and waste materials, which are all subject to change in the future. Any breach of these obligations, or even incidents that do not amount to a breach could adversely affect the Group's results of operations and reputation.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

The Group is required to comply with numerous laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and land use in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Continental Europe, Canada, Hong Kong, Mainland China and elsewhere. These laws and regulations may change over time.

The Group believes that it and its businesses have obtained all material environmental approvals currently required to operate their facilities. However, the Group and its businesses may incur significant additional costs as a result of current and future environmental regulations and requirements to obtain approvals. In addition, there can be no assurance that the requirements to obtain such approvals may not become more stringent in the future and that such approvals would be renewed when they expire. Furthermore, there is a risk that some environmental agencies may seek to retroactively alter certain permitting conditions, particularly in cases where certain practices were established and agreed upon in principle but were not documented.

In addition, the Group's businesses may be significantly impacted by evolving environmental regulations and decarbonisation efforts in the countries where they operate.

Failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations could result in the imposition of civil or criminal liabilities, the imposition of liens or fines and additional expenditures to bring the facilities into compliance, which would have a material adverse effect on the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The International Accounting Standards Board has from time to time issued a number of new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards. The International Accounting Standards Board may in the future issue new and revised standards and interpretations. In addition, interpretations on the application of the IFRS Accounting Standards will continue to develop. These factors may require the Group to adopt new accounting policies. The adoption of new accounting policies or new IFRS Accounting Standards might or could have a significant impact on the Group's financial position or results of operations.

CONNECTED TRANSACTIONS

CK Hutchison Holdings Limited ("CK Hutchison") is also listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("HK Stock Exchange"). Although the Group believes that its relationship with CK Hutchison provides it with significant business advantages, any transactions entered into between the Group and CK Hutchison, its subsidiaries or associates are connected transactions under the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on the HK Stock Exchange ("HK Listing Rules"), which, unless one of the exemptions is available, will be subject to compliance with the applicable requirements of the HK Listing Rules, including the issuance of announcements, the obtaining of independent shareholders' approval at general meetings and disclosure in annual reports and financial statements. Independent shareholders' approval requirements may also lead to unpredictable outcomes causing disruption to as well as increase in the risks of the Group's business activities. Independent shareholders may also take actions that are in conflict with the interests of the Group.

RISKS ARISING FROM CLIMATE CHANGE

Some of the Group's assets and businesses, and many of the Group's customers and suppliers are located in areas that may be affected in the short, medium and long term by the actual or potential impacts of climate change. Climate change may increase the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, which may result in natural disasters. It could disrupt supply chains, interrupt business operations and cause physical damage to assets and financial losses. Changes in weather patterns, such as typhoons, droughts, flooding, heatwaves or rainfall amounts, may adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. The harsher temperatures and more frequent and severe extreme weather events may also pose an increased health and safety risk for the personnel working in those locations. Changes in microclimates may render certain businesses obsolete. The Group and its businesses are also increasingly subject to evolving regulations in relation to climate change. While the Group commits expenditure towards complying with these laws and regulations, the cost of future environmental obligations is often inherently difficult to estimate and may be influenced by factors beyond its control. If additional and more onerous requirements are imposed on the Group, or its businesses are less able to recover additional costs imposed, the Group's businesses, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Some governments may also introduce or strengthen legislation or requirements relating to greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental protection measures. Some regulators have issued or may introduce mandatory climate-related reporting and disclosure requirements. Regulations, disclosure requirements, disruption and damage arising from climate change could have a material impact on the Group's businesses and adversely affect the Group's financial condition and results of operations.

There can be no assurance that climate change and its impact including rising sea levels, prolonged droughts, heatwaves, severe storms or flooding and other extreme weather patterns will not occur and result in major disruption or damage to the Group's assets and businesses, or otherwise adversely affect its operations and supply chains, which could materially and adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

TRANSITION RISKS

Pressure on businesses to support the transition to a low-carbon economy is rising. In a low-carbon economy, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced through the use of low-carbon resources, while resource efficiency is enhanced by the reduction of wasteful and emissions-intensive activities. Although the Group has developed a climate transition plan, it remains subject to significant pressure from regulatory, legal, market, technological and reputational risks arising from the transition to a low-carbon economy, which could have a material impact on the Group's businesses and adversely affect the Group's financial condition and results of operations. For example, additional legal and/or regulatory measures imposing greenhouse gas emission limits, energy efficiency requirements or carbon pricing mechanisms may result in increased compliance and operating costs, operational restrictions, asset impairments or litigation.

If the Group fails to identify and capture the opportunities associated with sustainability-related initiatives and the transition to a low-carbon economy, and manage the risks associated with sustainability-related matters and the transition to a low-carbon economy (including the risk of being involved in any climate or sustainability-related litigation or dispute, and the risk of failing to comply with evolving legal and regulatory requirements for disclosure of its climate or sustainability performance), the Group's long-term business performance, reputation and financial condition may be prejudiced.

NATURAL DISASTERS

Some of the Group's assets and projects, and many of the Group's customers and suppliers are located in areas at risk of damage from earthquakes, floods, storms, drought, bushfires, frost and other extreme weather events or natural disasters and the occurrence of any of these disasters could disrupt the Group's businesses and materially and adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

There can be no assurance that earthquakes, floods, storms, drought, bushfires, frost or other extreme weather events or natural disasters will not occur and result in major damage to the Group's infrastructure projects, utility assets or facilities, or to the general supporting infrastructure facilities in the vicinity, which could adversely affect the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

REPUTATIONAL RISKS

The Group's portfolio is primarily comprised of regulated businesses, and maintaining trust in the Group is critical to its ability to maintain strong relationships with the relevant regulators as well as investors and employees. Damage to the Group's reputation can therefore cause significant harm to its businesses and prospects. The Group also has strategic alliances with its affiliated companies, and the Group's reputation could also be harmed by the failure of an affiliate, a vendor or other third parties with which it does business, to comply with laws or regulations.

In addition, any failure or perceived failure of any of the Group's portfolio businesses to deliver appropriate standards of service and quality or to handle or use confidential information appropriately can result in user or regulators' dissatisfaction, litigation and heightened regulatory scrutiny, all of which can lead to lost turnover, higher operating costs and harm to the Group's and its businesses' reputation. Adverse publicity or negative information posted on social media regarding the Group or its businesses, whether or not true, may result in reputational harm, and have a material adverse effect on the Group's businesses and prospects. Should any of these or other events or factors that can undermine the Group's reputation occur, there is no assurance that the additional costs and expenses that it may need to incur to address the issues giving rise to the reputational harm could not adversely affect its businesses and results of operations.

PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY

There can be no assurance that there will not be another significant global outbreak of a severe communicable disease, and if such an outbreak were to occur, it could have an adverse impact on the operations of the Group and its results of operations might suffer. The potential impact on the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects will depend on a range of factors, including the duration, severity and scope of the pandemic, the impact of the pandemic on economic activity globally, the possibility of resurgence and variants, and the measures adopted by governments.

POTENTIAL RISKS IN RELATION TO WITHDRAWAL OF THE UK FROM EUROPEAN UNION'S MEMBERSHIP ("BREXIT")

Brexit may continue to create uncertainty about the new economic and social partnership between the UK and the EU, and has impacted trade intensity, labour availability, supply chain, exchange rates and the gross domestic product levels in the UK.

SOCIAL INCIDENTS, TERRORIST THREATS AND GEOPOLITICAL TENSIONS

The Group is a diversified infrastructure investment company with businesses presently in Hong Kong, Mainland China, the UK, Continental Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. Social incidents, terrorist activities and geopolitical tensions may occur from time to time that may result in economic losses, multiple deaths, casualties, persistent supply chain disruptions and volatility in commodity markets. There can be no assurance that countries in which the Group operates will not have any social incidents or they will be immune from terrorist threats or geopolitical tensions, and if these events occur, they may have an adverse impact on the Group's businesses, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects.

DIVIDENDS

Since its listing on the HK Stock Exchange in 1996, the Company has grown its dividends in each of the past 30 years. However, the Company's track record of dividend payment may not continue in the future. The Company's principal assets consist of its ownership stakes in its operating portfolio businesses. The Company's ability to pay dividends and fulfil its obligations depends, among other factors, on the ability of its portfolio businesses to distribute dividends, repay intercompany loans provided by the Company or extend intercompany loans to the Company. The Group's portfolio businesses are subject to regulations that may limit the amount of dividends, loans or advances they may make to the Company.

In addition, the Company's ability to pay dividends may be constrained by business considerations, such as the impact of dividends on the Company's credit ratings or competitive position. Furthermore, as a Bermuda incorporated company and under the Bye-laws, the Company may not declare or pay a dividend, or make a distribution out of contributed surplus, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that (i) the Company is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due or (ii) the realisable value of its assets would thereby become less than the aggregate of its liabilities and its issued share capital and share premium account.

DUAL LISTING OF THE COMPANY'S SHARES

Dual listing of the Company's shares on HK Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange plc ("LSE") may lead to an inefficient market in the shares as it results in differences in liquidity, settlement and clearing systems, trading currencies, prices and transaction costs between HK Stock Exchange and LSE. These and other factors can hinder the transferability of the shares between the two exchanges.

The Company's shares are quoted and traded in Hong Kong dollars on HK Stock Exchange. The shares will be quoted and traded in British pounds sterling on LSE. The market price of the shares on those exchanges may also differ due to exchange rate fluctuations.

Consequently, the trading in, and liquidity of, the Company's shares will be split between these two exchanges. The characteristics of the Hong Kong and UK capital markets are different. HK Stock Exchange and LSE have different trading hours, trading characteristics (including trading volume and liquidity), trading and listing rules, market regulations, and investor bases. As a result of these differences, the price of the shares may fluctuate and may at any time be different on HK Stock Exchange and LSE, even allowing for currency differences. This could adversely affect the trading of the shares on these exchanges and increase their price volatility and adversely affect the price and liquidity of the shares on these exchanges.
