Price Performance

Growth Potential
- Hard to replicate critical infrastructure assets. Leveraged to the growth in population and migration.
- Consistent growth in earnings driven by four key factors: 1) Traffic (with mature toll roads delivering on average 2-4% annual traffic growth); 2) Prices (with escalation set with agreements with governments); 3) operational efficiency improvements; and 4) development contribution from new assets.
- Solid yield - steady and growing distribution stream.
- Integration of technology and systems to enhance operations.
- Growth by asset acquisition and/or development of greenfield and brownfield projects.
- Exposure to infrastructure assets in the U.S.
- Strong management team with experience in deploying the developer-operator business model.
Key Risks
- Bond yields experience a significant increase in the short term and track upwards over the long term.
- Project development cost blowouts.
- Reduced traffic volumes.
- Regulatory changes within the sector.
- Unfavourable financing arrangements.
- Poor acquisitions (derived from inaccurate modelling of traffic).
