Note: Selection of disclosed investments is primarily based on valuation, and secondarily on capital invested.
1 Valuation of the Ecommerce portfolio (excluding Tencent) is based on a combination of (i) prevailing share prices for listed assets as at 21 June 2024; (ii) consensus sell-side analysts’ estimates for unlisted assets; (iii) most recent post-money

transactions valuation where analyst consensus is unavailable; and (iv) internal valuation for any remaining assets. The IRR is calculated including exited assets.
2 Swiggy’s IRR not disclosed due to the ongoing IPO process.
3 Tencent includes JD.com proceeds and the value of Meituan on the day of distribution, which is then assumed as the investment cost for Meituan’s IRR calculation. 10

Our ambition is to continue driving growth and margin expansion

Value creation through growth


Value creation through cost-cutting and efficiency gains is inferior to value creation through growth, so investing in growth is critical

Dedicated to enhancing further profitability and cash flow generation


Our businesses are performing well, and their ongoing success will underscore our ability to highlight their value

Capital allocation will remain focused and disciplined


Taking calculated risks to drive growth but investing only where a clear path to profitability can be seen

Enhanced Portfolio Management


A focused approach, to operating and owning the best companies that are defining the technology landscape

Committed to managing our balance sheet within its investment-grade rating


Debt capital is important to us and we are actively working to diversify our company’s cash profile as segments become profitable
