Group information |
34. Group information 34.1 List of principal subsidiaries The Group’s principal subsidiaries as at December 31, 2021 and 2020 are set out below. Unless otherwise stated, they have share capital consisting solely of ordinary shares that are held directly by the Group, and the proportion of ownership interests held equals the voting rights held by the Group. The country of incorporation or registration is also their principal place of business.
34.2 Changes to the composition of the Group In December 2019, the Company sold its interest in Mega-E Charging B.V. (“Mega-E”) under common control to the French investor Meridiam EM SAS, which is a related party under common control of Meridiam SAS. Prior to the transaction, Mega-E’s operations were limited. The sale did not result in a material result on disposal for the Group. After the sale of Mega-E to Meridiam EM SAS, Mega-E established subsidiaries and formed the Mega-E Group. As a result of the sale, Mega-E was no longer a subsidiary, but Mega-E Charging B.V. and its subsidiaries (the “Mega-E Group”) became related parties under common control. Subsequent to the sale, the Group entered into several EPC and O&M contracts with the Mega-E Group to construct and operate charging stations across Europe. The EPC agreements relate to the engineering, design, procurement, delivery, construction, installation, testing and commissioning of electric vehicle charging infrastructure at designated areas. The Group receives a fixed contract price for these services. The O&M agreements relate to the operation and maintenance of the delivered electric vehicle charging infrastructure by the Group to the Mega-E Group. The services consist of the technical operation of the charging stations, revenue management, maintenance, providing pricing recommendations and providing access to the Group’s EV Cloud platform. The Group receives a service fee that contains both fixed and variable fees per charging session. After the transaction, the Group continues to have a relationship with
Mega-E. The relationship is that of a customer and service provider. Refer to Note 3.1.3 for details about the judgments applied by the Group in assessing its continued involvement in Mega-E. |
