FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

Athena Pubco B.V. was incorporated by Madeleine Charging B.V. on June 3, 2021 for the purpose of effectuating the Business Combination. Prior to the Business Combination, Athena Pubco B.V., which was redesignated as Allego N.V. in connection with the Closing, had no material assets and did not operate any businesses. The Business Combination resulted in Allego acquiring Allego Holding and combining with Spartan, with an exchange of the shares and warrants issued by

Spartan for those of Allego. The Business Combination was accounted for as a capital reorganization followed by the combination with Spartan, which was treated as a recapitalization. Following the Business Combination, both Allego Holding and Spartan are wholly owned subsidiaries of Allego.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET DATA

In this Annual Report, we present industry data, forecasts, information and statistics regarding the markets in which Allego competes as well as Allego management’s analysis of statistics, data and other information that it has derived from third-parties, including independent consultant reports, publicly available information, various industry publications and other published industry sources, including: (i) traffic data from governmental agencies, such as Germany’s BAST (Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen), the Netherlands’ Rijkswaterstaat, and the United Kingdom’s Department of Transport, (ii) population data from EUROSTAT, (iii) registered cars data from governmental statistics agencies, such as Germany’s Kraftfahrt Bundesamt, the Netherlands’ CBS (Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek) and the United Kingdom’s Department of Transport, (iv) electric vehicle sales forecasts from consultancy firms, such as ING, UBS, BCG and Navigant, (v) electric vehicle sales data from the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association, and (vi) industry growth forecasts from BloombergNEF. Independent consultant reports, industry publications and other published industry sources generally indicate that the information contained therein was obtained from sources believed to be reliable. Such information is supplemented where necessary with our own internal estimates and information obtained from discussions with our customers, taking into account publicly available information about other industry participants and our management’s judgment where information is not publicly available. This information appears in “Item 4. Information on the Company—B. Business Overview,” “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and other sections of this Annual Report.

Although we believe that these third-party sources are reliable, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information, and we have not independently verified this information. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and uncertainties as the other forward-looking statements in this Annual Report. These forecasts and forward-looking information are subject to uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described under “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors.” These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in any forecasts or estimates. Some market data and statistical information are also based on our good faith estimates, which are derived from management’s knowledge of our industry and such independent sources referred to above. Certain market, ranking and industry data included elsewhere in this Annual Report, including the size of certain markets and our size or position and the positions of our competitors within these markets, including its services relative to its competitors, are based on estimates by us. These estimates have been derived from Allego management’s knowledge and experience in the markets in which Allego operates, as well as information obtained from surveys, reports by market research firms, our customers, distributors, suppliers, trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which Allego operates and have not been verified by independent sources. Unless otherwise noted, all of Allego’s market share and market position information presented in this Annual Report is an approximation. Allego’s market share and market position, unless otherwise noted, is based on Allego’s volume relative to the estimated volume in the markets served by Allego’s business segments. References herein to Allego being a leader in a market or product category refer to Allego management’s belief that Allego has a leading market share position in each specified market, unless the context otherwise requires. As there are no publicly available sources supporting this belief, it is based solely on Allego management’s internal analysis of Allego volume as compared to the estimated volume of its competitors.

Internal data and estimates are based upon information obtained from trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which Allego operates and Allego management’s understanding of industry conditions. Although we believe that such information is reliable, this information has not been verified by any independent sources.

Summary Risk Factors

The following summarizes some, but not all, of the risks provided below. Please carefully consider all of the information discussed in this “Item 3. Risk Factors—D. Risk Factors.” in this Annual Report for a detailed description of these risks.

•Allego is an early stage company with a history of operating losses, and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the near term and medium term.

•Allego has experienced growth and expects to invest substantially in growth for the foreseeable future. If it fails to manage growth effectively, its business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

•Allego’s forecasts and projections are based upon assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by Allego’s management. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, Allego’s actual operating results may differ adversely and materially from those forecasted or projected.

•Allego’s estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate.

•Allego’s business is subject to risks associated with the price of electricity, which may hamper its profitability and growth.

•Allego is dependent on the availability of electricity at its current and future charging sites. Delays and/or other restrictions on the availability of electricity (for example, grid connections delays) would adversely affect Allego’s business and results of operations.

•Allego currently faces competition from a number of companies and expects to face significant competition in the future as the market for EV charging develops.

•Allego’s future revenue growth will depend in significant part on its ability to increase the number and size of its charging sites, traffic, and the sales of services to Business to Business customers.

•Allego may need to raise additional funds or debt and these funds may not be available when needed.

•If Allego fails to offer high-quality support to its customers and fails to maintain the availability of its charging points, its business and reputation may suffer.

1

Table of Contents

•Allego relies on a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers for its hardware and equipment and charging stations. A loss of any of these partners or issues in their manufacturing and supply processes could negatively affect its business.

•Allego’s EV driver base will depend upon the effective operation of Allego’s EVCloudTM platform and its applications with mobile service providers, firmware from hardware manufacturers, mobile operating systems, payment systems, networks and standards that Allego does not control.

•If Allego is unable to attract and retain key employees and hire qualified management, technical, engineering and sales personnel, its ability to compete and successfully grow its business would be harmed.

•Allego is expanding operations in many countries in Europe, which will expose it to additional tax, compliance, market, local rules and other risks.

•New alternative fuel technologies may negatively impact the growth of the EV market and thus the demand for Allego’s charging stations and services.

•The European EV market currently benefits from the availability of rebates, scrappage schemes, tax credits and other financial incentive schemes from governments to offset and incentivize the purchase of EVs. The reduction, modification, or elimination of such benefits could cause reduced demand for EVs and EV charging, which would adversely affect Allego’s financial results.

•Allego’s business may be adversely affected if it is unable to maintain, protect or enforce its rights in its technology and intellectual property.

•Computer malware, viruses, ransomware, hacking, phishing attacks and similar disruptions could result in security and privacy breaches and interruption in service, which could harm Allego’s business.

•Allego’s technology could have undetected defects, errors or bugs in hardware or software which could reduce market adoption, damage its reputation with current or prospective customers, and/or expose it to product liability and other claims that could materially and adversely affect its business.

•Allego has identified, and has previously identified, material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. If Allego is unable to remediate these material weaknesses, or if Allego identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fails to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements contained within Allego’s consolidated financial statements or cause Allego to fail to meet its periodic reporting obligations.

•Members of Allego’s management have limited experience in operating a public company.

•Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our Ordinary Shares by us or selling security holders, including Madeleine, could cause the market price for our Ordinary Shares to decline significantly.

•Madeleine owns a significant amount of Allego’s voting shares and its interests may conflict with those of other shareholders.

Shareholders should carefully consider the following factors in addition to the other information set forth in this Annual Report. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations and the value of Allego Ordinary Shares would likely suffer.

Risks Related to Allego’s Business, Industry and Regulatory Environment

Allego is an early stage company with a history of operating losses, and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the near term and medium term.

Allego incurred a net loss of €110.3 million and €305.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and as of December 31, 2023, Allego had total equity of approximately €79.3 million. Allego believes it will continue to incur net losses for the near term. Even if it achieves profitability, there can be no assurance that it will be able maintain profitability in the future. Allego’s potential profitability is particularly dependent upon the continued adoption of electric vehicles (“EVs”) by consumers in Europe, which may occur at a slower pace than anticipated or may

2

Table of Contents

not occur at all. This continued adoption may depend upon continued support from regulatory programs and in each case, the use of Allego chargers and Allego services may be at much lower levels than Allego currently anticipates.

Allego has experienced growth and expects to invest substantially in growth for the foreseeable future. If it fails to manage growth effectively, its business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Allego has experienced growth in recent periods that has placed and continues to place a significant strain on employee retention, management, operations, financial infrastructure and corporate culture and has required several strategic adjustments. Allego’s revenue has increased from €133.9 million in 2022 to €145.5 million in 2023. In addition, in the event of further growth, Allego’s information technology systems and Allego’s internal control over financial reporting and procedures may not be adequate to support its operations and may increase the risk of data security incidents that may interrupt business operations and permit bad actors to obtain unauthorized access to business information or misappropriate company funds. Allego may also face risks to the extent such bad actors infiltrate the information technology infrastructure of its contractors. Allego may also face the risk that EVCloudTM, its core platform, is not able to support Allego’s growth due to increased traffic on Allego charging points, which would interrupt business operations. Allego could then also face contractual penalties with its customers if this results in a failure to meet its contractual obligations.

To manage growth in operations and personnel management, Allego will need to continue to improve its operational, financial and management controls and reporting systems and procedures. Failure to manage growth effectively could result in difficulty or delays in developing new EV charging sites, in attracting new customers, declines in quality or customer satisfaction, increases in costs, difficulties in introducing new solutions and services or enhancing existing solutions and services, loss of EV sites and customers, information security vulnerabilities or other operational difficulties, any of which could adversely affect its business performance and operating results.

Allego’s forecasts and projections are based upon assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by Allego’s management. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, Allego’s actual operating results may differ adversely and materially from those forecasted or projected.

Allego’s business forecasts and projections are subject to different parameters with significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions, analyses and internal estimates developed by Allego’s management and teams, any or all of which may not prove to be correct or accurate. If these assumptions, analyses or estimates prove to be incorrect or inaccurate, Allego’s actual operating results may differ materially and adversely from those forecasted or projected. Realization of the operating results forecasted will depend on the successful implementation of Allego’s proposed business plan, and the development of policies and procedures consistent with Allego’s assumptions. Future results will also be affected by events and circumstances beyond Allego’s control, for example, the competitive environment, Allego’s executive team, technological change, economic and other conditions in the markets in which Allego operates or proposes to operate, national and regional regulations, uncertainties inherent in product and software development and testing, Allego’s future financing needs, and Allego’s ability to grow and to manage growth effectively. In particular, Allego’s forecasts and projections include forecasts and estimates relating to the expected size and growth of the markets in which Allego operates in Europe or seeks to enter and demand for its current and future charging points. For the reasons described above, it is likely that the actual results of its operations will be different from the results forecasted and those differences may be material and adverse.

Allego’s estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth may prove to be inaccurate.

Market opportunity estimates and growth forecasts, whether obtained from third-party sources or developed internally, are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may prove to be inaccurate. Estimates and forecasts relating to the size and expected growth of the target market, market demand, EV adoption across each individual national market in Europe and use cases, capacity of automotive and battery original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and ability of charging infrastructure to address this demand and related pricing may also prove to be inaccurate. In particular, estimates regarding the current and projected market opportunity for public fast and ultra-fast charging or Allego market share capture are difficult to predict. The estimated addressable market may not materialize in the timeframe of the projections, if ever, and even if the markets meet the size estimates and growth estimates, Allego’s business could fail to grow at similar rates.

Allego’s business is subject to risks associated with the price of electricity, which may hamper its profitability and growth.

Allego obtains electricity for its own charging stations through contracts with power suppliers or through direct sourcing on the market from producers. In most of the countries in which Allego operates, there are many suppliers that can offer medium or long-term contracts that can allow Allego to hedge the price of electricity. However, market conditions may

3

Table of Contents

change, triggering fluctuations and global increases in the price of electricity. For example, the price of electricity is generally higher in the winter due to higher electricity demands, and Europe experience record high electricity price increases in 2022 caused in large part by the Russia/Ukraine conflict. While these costs could be passed on to EV customers, increases in the price of electricity could result in near-term cash flow strains to Allego. In addition, global increases in electricity pricing will increase the price of charging, which could impact demand and hamper the use of public charging by EV customers, thus decreasing the number of charging sessions on Allego’s charging stations and adversely impacting its profitability and growth. Furthermore, competitors may be able to source electricity on better terms than Allego, which may allow those competitors to offer lower prices for charging, which may also decrease the number of charging sessions on Allego’s charging stations and adversely impact its profitability and growth.

Allego is dependent on the availability of electricity at its current and future charging sites. Delays and/or other restrictions on the availability of electricity (for example, grid connections delays) would adversely affect Allego’s business and results of operations.

The operation and development of Allego’s charging points is dependent upon the availability of electricity, which is beyond its control. Allego’s charging points are affected by problems accessing electricity sources, such as planned or unplanned power outages or limited grid capacity. In the event of a power outage, Allego will be dependent on the grid operator, and in some cases the site host, to restore power for its B2B solutions or to unlock grid capacity. Any prolonged power outage or limited grid capacity could adversely affect customer experience and Allego’s business and results of operations.

Allego’s public charging points may be exposed to vandalism or misuse by customers and other individuals, increasing wear and tear of the charging equipment. Such increased wear and tear could shorten the usable lifespan of the chargers and require Allego to increase its spending on replacement and maintenance costs.

Allego currently faces competition from a number of companies and expects to face significant competition in the future as the market for EV charging develops.

The EV charging market is relatively new, and competition is still developing. Apart from China, Europe is currently the biggest EV market in the world and is currently more mature than the United States. Allego competes in its charging network and services businesses with many competitors in different countries. With respect to the development of its own ultra-fast public EV charging network, Allego primarily competes with incumbent utilities and oil and gas companies alongside pure EV charging players and companies linked to car manufacturers. With respect to its services business, Allego competes with a variety of companies, including hardware manufacturers, software platform vendors, installation companies and maintenance contractors. Despite Allego’s longstanding European presence, it must continuously strive to remain competitive in its markets. Competition may hamper global EV adoption as an influx of providers may lead to poor service and trust in any one provider of EV charging solutions.

In addition, there are means for charging EVs other than publicly accessible charging, which could affect the level of demand for onsite charging capabilities at public or commercial areas, which are Allego’s primary focus. For example, Tesla Inc. ("Tesla") continues to build out its supercharger network across Europe for its vehicles, which could reduce overall demand for EV charging at other sites. Tesla is also opening its supercharger network to support charging of non-Tesla EVs, which could further reduce demand for charging at Allego’s sites. Additionally, third-party contractors can provide basic electric charging capabilities to potential customers of Allego, including commercial on premise charging and home charging solutions. Many EV hardware manufacturers are now offering home charging equipment, which could reduce demand for public charging if EV owners find charging at home to be more convenient. Regulations imposing home or workplace charging capabilities for all new buildings could also adversely affect the development of public charging versus home charging.

Furthermore, Allego’s current or potential competitors may be acquired by third parties with greater available resources. As a result, competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than Allego to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer requirements and may have the ability to initiate or withstand substantial price competition. In addition, competitors may in the future establish cooperative relationships with vendors of complementary products, technologies or services to increase the availability of their solutions in the marketplace. This competition may also materialize in the form of costly intellectual property disputes or litigation.

New competitors or alliances may emerge in the future that have greater market share, more widely adopted proprietary technologies, greater marketing expertise and greater financial resources, which could put Allego at a competitive disadvantage. Future competitors could also be better positioned to serve certain segments of Allego’s current or future target markets, which could increase costs and create downward pricing pressure on charging sessions. In light of these factors, even if Allego’s public charging network is larger and provides faster charging, and if its services offerings are

more effective, higher quality and address more complex demands than those of its competitors, current or potential customers may accept other competitive solutions. If Allego fails to adapt to changing market conditions or continue to compete successfully with current charging providers or new competitors, its growth will be limited, which would adversely affect its business and results of operations.

Allego’s future revenue growth will depend in significant part on its ability to increase the number and size of its charging sites, traffic, and the sales of services to Business to Business (“B2B”) customers.

Allego’s future revenue growth will depend in significant part on its ability to increase the number and size of its charging sites, traffic, and its sales of services to B2B customers. The sites Allego may wish to lease or acquire may first be leased or acquired by competitors or they may no longer be economically attractive due to certain adverse conditions such as increased rent which would hamper the growth and profitability of Allego’s business.

Furthermore, Allego’s B2B customer base may not increase as quickly as expected because the adoption of EVs may be delayed or transformed by new technologies. In addition to the factors affecting the growth of the EV market generally, transitioning to an EV fleet for some customers or providing EV equipment to facilities for other customers can be costly and capital intensive, which could result in slower than anticipated adoption. The sales cycle for certain B2B customers could also be longer than expected.

Allego has entered into a credit facility that imposes certain restrictions on its business and operations that may affect its ability to operate its business and make payments on its indebtedness.

We entered into the renewed credit facility on December 19, 2022, which requires us to comply with various affirmative and negative restrictions and covenants. See “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – B. Liquidity and Capital Resources – Sources of Liquidity – Borrowings” and “Note 34 (Capital management) – Loan covenants” of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The restrictions and covenants under the renewed credit facility may prevent us from engaging in certain transactions which might otherwise be considered beneficial to us and could have other important consequences to shareholders. For example, they could increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, to fund future working capital, capital expenditures and other requirements; to engage in future acquisitions, construction or development activities; to access capital markets (debt and equity); or to otherwise fully realize the value of our assets and opportunities because of the need to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations to payments on our indebtedness or to comply with any restrictive terms of our indebtedness; limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our businesses and the industries in which we operate; and place us at a competitive disadvantage as compared to our competitors that have less debt.

Further, even though the Group has complied with the covenants of the old facility and renewed facility throughout all reporting periods presented, the Group also forecasts the potential breach of the interest cover ratio and leverage ratio covenants at December 31, 2024 and the Group is dependent on obtaining additional financing to execute on its business plan. The covenant ratios are increasing every testing date until June 30, 2027 in line with this business plan. Failure to comply with the terms and conditions of any existing or future indebtedness would constitute an event of default. If an event of default occurs, the lenders or note holders will have the right to accelerate the maturity of such indebtedness and foreclose upon the collateral, if any, securing that indebtedness.

Allego may need to raise additional funds or debt and these funds may not be available when needed.

Allego may need to raise additional capital or debt in the future to further scale its business and expand to additional markets. Allego may raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or debt securities, or through obtaining credit from financial institutions. Allego cannot be certain that additional funds will be available on favorable terms when required, or at all. If Allego cannot raise additional funds when needed, its financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. If Allego raises funds through the issuance of debt securities or through loan arrangements, the terms of such arrangements could require significant interest payments, contain covenants that restrict Allego’s business, or other unfavorable terms. In addition, to the extent Allego raises funds through the sale of additional equity securities, Allego shareholders would experience additional dilution.

If Allego fails to offer high-quality support to its customers and fails to maintain the availability of its charging points, its business and reputation may suffer.

Once Allego charging points are operational, customers rely on Allego to provide maintenance services to resolve any issues that might arise in the future. Rapid and high-quality customer and equipment support is important so that drivers can reliably charge their EVs. The importance of high-quality customer and equipment support will increase as Allego seeks to expand its public charging network and retain customers, while pursuing new EV drivers and geographies. If

5

Table of Contents

Allego does not quickly resolve issues and provide effective support, its ability to retain EV drivers or sell additional services to B2B customers could suffer and its brand and reputation could be harmed.

A potential pandemic or other health crises could have a material adverse effect on Allego’s business and results of operations.

The impact of a pandemic or other health crises, including changes in consumer and business behavior, pandemic fears and market downturns, and restrictions on business and individual activities, can create significant volatility in the global economy or lead to reduced economic activity. The recent COVID-19 pandemic created supply chain disruptions for vehicle manufacturers, suppliers and hardware manufacturers, as well as impacted the capacities of installers. Any sustained new disruption could impact demand for EVs and would harm Allego’s business despite its historical growth.

If a pandemic or other health crises occurs, it could require a modification of our business (for example, grid connections delays), triggering mitigating actions (as may be required by government authorities or otherwise) in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners. If significant portions of our workforce in the future is unable to work effectively, including due to illness, quarantines, social distancing, government actions or other restrictions, our operations will be negatively impacted. Furthermore, if significant portions of our customers’ or potential customers’ workforce are subject to stay-at-home orders or otherwise have substantial numbers of their employees working remotely for sustained periods of time, user demand for EV charging sessions and services may decline.

As of December 31, 2023, the impact of COVID-19 to Allego’s business has been limited, but prospects and results of operations will depend on any future developments. Ongoing effects from a pandemic or other health crises could limit the ability of customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners to perform, including third-party suppliers’ ability to provide components and materials used for Allego’s charging stations or in providing transport, installation or maintenance services.

Any economic recession that has occurred or may occur in the future will impact the growth of EVs and the growth of EV charging demand.

Difficult macroeconomic conditions, such as decreases in per capita income and level of disposable income, increased and prolonged unemployment or a decline in consumer confidence, as well as reduced spending by businesses, could each have a material adverse effect on the demand for Allego’s charging points network and services.

Allego relies on a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers for its hardware and equipment and charging stations. A loss of any of these partners or issues in their manufacturing and supply processes could negatively affect its business.

Allego has extended its hardware and equipment supplier base, but it still relies on a limited number of suppliers, although it is not dependent on any one supplier. This reliance on a limited number of hardware manufacturers increases Allego’s risks, since it does not currently have proven alternatives or replacement manufacturers beyond these key parties. In the event of interruption or insufficient capacity, it may not be able to increase capacity from other sources or develop alternate or secondary sources without incurring material additional costs and substantial delays. In particular, disruptions or shortages at such suppliers, including as a result of delays or issues with their supply chain, in respect of electronic chips, processors, semiconductors and other electronic components or materials, can negatively impact deliveries by such suppliers to Allego. Thus, Allego’s business could be adversely affected if one or more of its suppliers is impacted by any interruption at a particular location or decides to reduce its deliveries to Allego for any reason including its acquisition by a third party or is unable to provide Allego with the quantities Allego requires for its growth.

If Allego experiences an increase in demand greater than expected for the development of its charging stations or from its services customers or if it needs to replace an existing supplier, it may not be possible to supplement or replace them on acceptable terms, which may undermine Allego’s ability to capture higher growth or deliver solutions to customers in a timely manner. For example, it may take a significant amount of time to identify a new hardware manufacturer that has the capability and resources to build hardware and equipment in sufficient volume that meets Allego’s specifications. Identifying suitable suppliers and manufacturers could be an extensive process that would require Allego to become satisfied with such suppliers’ and manufacturers’ quality control, technical capabilities, responsiveness and service, financial stability, regulatory compliance, and labor and other ethical practices. Accordingly, a loss of any significant suppliers or manufacturers could have an adverse effect on Allego’s business, financial condition and operating results.

Allego’s hardware and equipment may also experience technical issues, including safety issues, which could, on a large scale, negatively impact Allego’s business and potentially in the most extreme cases lead Allego to an early replacement program of such hardware, resulting in Allego incurring substantial additional costs and delays.

In addition, the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and more recently the conflict between Israel and Hamas, could lead to additional disruption, instability and volatility in global markets and industries that could negatively impact Allego’s supply chain. The European Union, the United States and other governments have already imposed severe sanctions and export controls against Russia and Russian interests and may impose additional sanctions and controls. The impact of these measures, as well as potential responses to them by Russia, is currently unknown and could adversely affect Allego’s supply chain, which, in turn, could affect Allego’s business and operating results.

Further, the United States imposed extraordinary tariffs and extensive export controls targeted primarily at the semiconductor industry in China. If China retaliates to such measures or there is a conflict between China and Taiwan, which is a leading producer of semiconductors, there could be further disruption to the semiconductor industry and global supply chains. Allego or the suppliers it procures components from may be unable to manufacture products at prices our customers would accept, or at all. Any inability to pass on future increased costs to customers would put downward pressure on Allego’s gross margins and adversely affect Allego’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Allego’s business is subject to risks associated with construction, cost overruns and delays, and other contingencies that may arise in the course of completing installations, and such risks may increase in the future as Allego expands its charging networks and increases its service to third parties.

Allego does not typically install charging points directly on leased sites or at customer sites. These installations are typically performed by Allego’s electrical contractors at its own sites or with contractors with an existing relationship with the customer and/or knowledge of the site. The installation of charging stations at a particular site is generally subject to oversight and regulation in accordance with national and local laws and regulations relating to building codes, safety, environmental protection and related matters, and typically requires various local approvals and permits, such as grid connection permits that may vary by jurisdiction. In addition, building codes, accessibility requirements or regulations may hinder EV charger installation due to potential increased costs to the developer or installer in order to meet such requirements. Meaningful delays or cost overruns may impact Allego’s recognition of revenue in certain cases and/or impact customer relationships, either of which could impact Allego’s business and profitability.

Contractors may require that Allego or Allego’s customers obtain licenses in order to perform their services. Furthermore, additional rules on working conditions and other labor requirements may result in more complex projects with higher project management costs. If these contractors are unable to provide timely, thorough and quality installation-related services, Allego could fall behind its construction schedules which may cause EV drivers and Allego’s customers to become dissatisfied with Allego’s network and charging solutions. As the demand for public fast and ultra-fast charging increases and qualifications for contractors become more stringent, Allego may encounter shortages in the number of qualified contractors available to complete all of Allego’s desired new charging stations and their maintenance.

Allego’s business model is predicated on the presence of qualified and capable electrical and civil contractors and subcontractors in the new markets it intends to enter. There is no guarantee that there will be an adequate supply of such partners. A shortage in the number of qualified contractors may impact the viability of Allego’s business plan, increase risks around the quality of work performed and increase costs if outside contractors are brought into a new market.

Allego’s business is subject to risks associated with increased cost of land and competition from third parties that can create cost overruns and delays and can decrease the value of some of Allego’s charging stations.

Allego typically enters into long-term leases for its charging stations. With the growing adoption of EVs, increased competition may develop in securing suitable sites for charging stations, especially in high traffic areas. This competition may trigger increases in the cost of land leases, tenders organized by landowners, delays in securing sites and a quicker depletion of available sites for Allego’s charging stations. The term of leases may also be impacted by increased competition. This could negatively impact the potential economic return of building such charging stations in certain zones or on certain sites and therefore negatively impact Allego’s business and profitability.

Allego’s EV driver base depends upon the effective operation of Allego’s EVCloudTM platform and its applications with mobile service providers, firmware from hardware manufacturers, mobile operating systems, payment systems, networks and standards that Allego does not control.

Allego is dependent on the interoperability of mobile service providers for the payment of charging sessions that must use open protocols. Its own mobile payment application is dependent upon popular mobile operating systems that Allego does not control, such as Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS software systems, and any changes in such systems that degrade or hamper the functionality of Allego’s products or give preferential treatment to competitive products could adversely affect the usage of Allego’s applications on mobile devices. Changes in standards, such as Open Charge Point Protocol, may require Allego to incur development expenses and delay its operations and the potential launch of new services. Continued

support and operability of Allego’s charging stations depends upon hardware manufacturers’ firmware of which Allego has no control over. Additionally, in order to deliver high quality services to its customers, it is important that Allego’s products work well with a range of technologies, including various firmware, software, payment systems, networks and standards that Allego does not control. Allego may not be successful in maintaining and updating its EVCloudTM platform and may not have sufficient knowledge to effectively keep up with new technologies, systems, networks or standards.

Should Allego pursue acquisitions in the future, it would be subject to risks associated with acquisitions.

Allego may acquire additional assets such as public charging networks, products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to its existing business or that reinforce its core or adjacent competencies. The process of identifying and consummating acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new assets and businesses into Allego’s own business would require attention from management and could result in a diversion of resources from its existing business, which in turn could have an adverse effect on its operations. Acquired assets or businesses may not generate the expected financial results or the expected technological gains. Key employees of acquired companies may also decide to leave. Acquisitions could also result in the use of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the occurrence of goodwill impairment charges, amortization expenses for other intangible assets and exposure to potential unknown liabilities of the acquired business.

If Allego is unable to attract and retain key employees and hire qualified management, technical, engineering and sales personnel, its ability to compete and successfully grow its business would be harmed.

Allego’s success depends, in part, on its continuing ability to identify, hire, attract, train, develop and retain highly qualified and skilled personnel, including software engineers and other employees with the technical skills in design and engineering that will enable us to deliver quality EV charging products and energy management solutions. The inability to do so effectively would adversely affect its business.

Competition for employees can be intense in the various parts of Europe where Allego operates, as there is a high demand of qualified personnel, and we expect certain of our key competitors, who generally are larger than us and have access to more substantial resources, to pursue top talent even more aggressively. The ability to attract, hire and retain personnel depends on Allego’s ability to provide competitive compensation. Allego may not be able to attract, assimilate, develop or retain qualified personnel in the future, and failure to do so could adversely affect its business, including the execution of its strategy.

Allego is expanding operations in many countries in Europe, which will expose it to additional tax, compliance, market, local rules and other risks.

Allego’s operations are within the European Union and in the United Kingdom, and it maintains contractual relationships with parts and manufacturing suppliers in Asia, directly or indirectly through its suppliers. Allego also intends to expand into other EEA countries. Managing this global presence and expansion in Europe requires additional resources and controls, and could subject Allego to certain risks, associated with international operations, including:

•conformity with applicable business customs, including translation into foreign languages and associated expenses;

•ability to find and secure sites in new jurisdictions;

•availability of reliable and high quality contractors for the development of its sites and more globally installation challenges;

•challenges in arranging, and availability of, financing for customers;

•difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations in an environment of diverse culture, laws, and customers, and the increased travel, infrastructure, and legal and compliance costs associated with European operations;

•differing driving habits and transportation modalities in other markets;

•different levels of demand among commercial customers;

•quality of wireless communication that can hinder the use of its software platform with charging stations in the field;

•compliance with multiple, potentially conflicting and changing governmental laws, regulations, certifications, and permitting processes including environmental, banking, employment, tax, information security, privacy,

and data protection laws and regulations such as the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), national legislation implementing the same;

•compliance with the United Kingdom Anti-Bribery Act;

•safety requirements as well as charging and other electric infrastructures;

•difficulty in establishing, staffing and managing foreign operations;

•difficulties in collecting payments in foreign currencies and associated foreign currency exposure;

•restrictions on operations as a result of the dependence on subsidies to fulfill capitalization requirements;

•restrictions on repatriation of earnings;

•compliance with potentially conflicting and changing laws of taxing jurisdictions, the complexity and adverse consequences of such tax laws, and potentially adverse tax consequences due to changes in such tax laws; and

•regional economic and political conditions.

As a result of these risks, Allego’s current expansion efforts and any potential future international expansion efforts may not be successful.

Inflation could adversely affect Allego’s business and financial results.

Inflation, which increased significantly during 2022 and 2023, could adversely affect Allego by increasing the costs of materials and labor needed to operate Allego’s business and could continue to adversely affect the Company in future periods. If this current inflationary environment continues, there can be no assurance that Allego would be able to recover related cost increases through price increases, which could result in downward pressure on Allego’s operating margins. As a result, Allego’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows, could be adversely affected over time.

Certain of Allego’s strategic and development arrangements could be terminated or may not materialize into long-term contract partnership arrangements and may restrict or limit Allego from developing arrangements with other strategic partners.

Allego has arrangements with strategic development partners and collaborators. Some of these arrangements are evidenced by memorandums of understanding, non-binding letters of intent, and early stage agreements that are used for design and development purposes but will require renegotiation at later stages of development, each of which could be terminated or may not materialize into next-stage contracts or long-term contract partnership arrangements. In addition, Allego does not currently have formal agreements with all partners and collaborators that are contemplated in the execution of its business plan. Moreover, existing or future arrangements may contain limitations on Allego’s ability to enter into strategic and development arrangements with other partners. If Allego is unable to maintain such arrangements and agreements, or if such agreements or arrangements contain other restrictions from or limitations on developing arrangements with other strategic partners, its business, prospects, financial condition and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

Risks Related to the EV Market

New alternative fuel technologies may negatively impact the growth of the EV market and thus the demand for Allego’s charging stations and services.

As a number of European Union regulations have sought to achieve a sharp decrease in CO2 emissions in Europe, consumer acceptance of EVs and other alternative vehicles has been increasing. If new technologies such as hydrogen for light trucks or load transportation develop and are widely adopted, the demand for electric charging could diminish. In addition, the EV fueling model is different than gas or other fuel models, requiring behavioral change and education of influencers, consumers and others such as regulatory bodies. Developments in alternative technologies, such as fuel cells, compressed natural gas or hydrogen may materially and adversely affect demand for EVs and EV charging stations, which in turn would materially and adversely affect Allego’s business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Allego’s future growth and success is highly correlated with and thus dependent upon the continuing rapid adoption of EVs.

Allego’s future growth is highly dependent upon the adoption of EVs by consumers. The market for EVs is still rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, competitive pricing and competitive factors, evolving government regulation and industry standards and changing consumer demands and behaviors and the environment

generally. Although demand for EVs has grown in recent years, bolstered in part by pro-EV regulations in Europe, there is no guarantee that such demand will continue to grow. If the market for EVs develops more slowly than expected, Allego’s business, prospects, financial condition and operating results would be harmed. The market for EVs could be affected by numerous factors, such as:

•perceptions about EV features, quality, safety, performance and cost;

•perceptions about the limited range over which EVs may be driven on a single battery charge;

•competition, including from other types of alternative fuel vehicles as hydrogen or fuel cells;

•concerns regarding the stability of the electrical grid;

•the decline of an EV battery’s ability to hold a charge over time;

•availability of service for EVs;

•consumers’ perception about the convenience and cost of charging EVs;

•government regulations and economic incentives, including adverse changes in, or expiration of, favorable tax incentives related to EVs, EV charging stations or decarbonization generally; and

•concerns about the future viability of EV manufacturers.

In addition, sales of vehicles in the automotive industry can be cyclical, which may affect growth in acceptance of EVs. It is uncertain how macroeconomic factors will impact demand for EVs, particularly since they can be more expensive than traditional fuel-powered vehicles, when the automotive industry globally has been experiencing a recent decline in sales.

Demand for EVs may also be affected by factors directly impacting automobile prices or the cost of purchasing and operating automobiles, such as sales and financing incentives, prices of raw materials and parts and components and governmental regulations, including tariffs, import regulation and other taxes. Volatility in demand may lead to lower vehicle unit sales, which may result in reduced demand for EV charging solutions and therefore adversely affect Allego’s business, financial condition and operating results.

The European EV market currently benefits from the availability of rebates, scrappage schemes, tax credits and other financial incentive schemes from governments to offset and incentivize the purchase of EVs. The reduction, modification, or elimination of such benefits could cause reduced demand for EVs and EV charging, which would adversely affect Allego’s financial results.

Most European countries provide incentives to end users and purchasers of EVs and EV charging stations in the form of rebates, scrappage schemes for internal combustion engines (“ICEs”), tax credits and other financial incentives. The EV market relies on these governmental rebates, scrappage schemes for ICEs, tax credits and other financial incentives to significantly lower the effective price of EVs and EV charging stations to customers and to support widespread installation of EV charging infrastructure. However, these incentives may expire on a particular date, may end when allocated funding is exhausted, or may be reduced or terminated as a matter of regulatory or legislative policy. For example, in Germany, incentives are expected to continue until 2030, and in the Netherlands, these incentives are expected to continue until 2025. Any reduction in rebates, scrappage schemes for ICEs, tax credits or other financial incentives could reduce the demand for EVs and EV charging stations and as a result, may adversely impact Allego’s business and expansion potential.

The EV charging market is characterized by rapid technological change, which requires Allego to continue developing new innovations of its software platform and to keep up with new hardware technologies. Any delays in such development could adversely affect market adoption of its solutions and Allego’s financial results.

Continuing technological changes in battery and other EV technologies or payment technologies could adversely affect adoption of current EV charging technology and/or Allego’s charging network or services. Allego’s future success will depend upon its ability to develop new sites and introduce a variety of new capabilities and innovations to enhance EV drivers experience using its network and its existing services offerings.

As EV technologies change, Allego may need to upgrade or adapt its charging stations technology and introduce new hardware in order to serve vehicles that have the latest technology, in particular battery cell technology, which could involve substantial costs. This could lead Allego to replace some charging hardware before its expected lifespan involving financial costs and reduced return. Even if Allego is able to keep pace with changes in technology and develop new features and services, its research and development expenses could increase and its gross margins could be adversely affected.

10

Table of Contents

Allego cannot guarantee that any new services or features of its software platform will be released in a timely manner or at all, or that if such services or features are released, that they will achieve market acceptance. Delays in delivering new services that meet customer requirements could damage Allego’s relationships with customers and lead them to seek alternative providers. For some customers, delays in delivering new services and features could induce the application of contractual penalties. Delays in introducing innovations or the failure to offer innovative services at competitive prices may cause existing and potential customers to purchase Allego’s competitors’ products or services.

If Allego is unable to devote adequate resources to develop new features and services or cannot otherwise successfully develop features or services that meet customer requirements on a timely basis or that remain competitive with technological alternatives, its charging network or services could lose market share, its revenue will decline, it may experience operating losses and its business and prospects will be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Allego’s Technology, Intellectual Property and Infrastructure

Allego may need to defend against intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claims, which may be time consuming and expensive.

From time to time, the holders of intellectual property rights may assert their rights and urge Allego to obtain licenses, and/or may bring suits alleging infringement or misappropriation of such rights. There can be no assurance that Allego will be able to mitigate the risk of potential suits or other legal demands by competitors or other third parties. Accordingly, Allego may consider entering into licensing agreements with respect to such rights, although no assurance can be given that such licenses can be obtained on acceptable terms or at all or that litigation will not occur, and such licenses and/or associated litigation could significantly increase Allego’s operating expenses. In addition, if Allego is determined to have or believes there is a high likelihood that it has infringed upon or misappropriated a third party’s intellectual property rights, it may be required to cease making, selling or incorporating certain key components or intellectual property into the products and services it offers, to pay substantial damages and/or royalties, to redesign its products and services, and/or to establish and maintain alternative branding. In addition, to the extent that Allego’s customers and business partners become the subject of any allegation or claim regarding the infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights related to Allego’s products and services, Allego may be required to indemnify such customers and business partners. If Allego were required to take one or more such actions, its business, prospects, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.

Allego’s business may be adversely affected if it is unable to maintain, protect or enforce its rights in its technology and intellectual property.

Allego’s success depends, in part, on Allego’s ability to establish, maintain and protect its rights in its core technology and intellectual property. To accomplish this, Allego relies on, and plans to continue relying on, trade secrets, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, intellectual property licenses and other contractual rights. Failure to adequately maintain, protect or enforce its rights in its technology and intellectual property could result in competitors offering similar products, potentially resulting in the loss of some of

Allego’s competitive advantage and a decrease in revenue which would adversely affect its business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

Allego cannot guarantee that competitors will not infringe its intellectual property. Despite Allego’s efforts to protect its intellectual property, third parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use Allego’s intellectual property or seek court declarations that Allego’s intellectual property is invalid or unenforceable or that they do not infringe upon Allego’s intellectual property. Monitoring unauthorized use of Allego’s intellectual property is difficult and costly and the steps Allego has taken or may take in the future in an effort to prevent infringement or misappropriation may not be successful. From time to time, Allego may have to resort to litigation to enforce its intellectual property, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, and ultimately may not be successful.

In addition, it is possible that:

•current and future competitors may independently develop similar trade secrets or works of authorship, such as software;

•know-how and other proprietary information Allego purports to hold as a trade secret may not qualify as a trade secret under applicable laws; and

•proprietary designs, software design and technology embodied in Allego’s offers may be discoverable by third parties through means that do not constitute violations of applicable laws.

11

Table of Contents

Patent, trademark and trade secret laws vary significantly throughout the world. Some foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the European Union, United Kingdom, or EEA countries. Further, policing the unauthorized use of its intellectual property in foreign jurisdictions may be difficult or impossible. Therefore, Allego’s intellectual property rights may not be as strong or as easily enforced outside of the European Union, United Kingdom, and EEA.

Computer malware, viruses, ransomware, hacking, phishing attacks and similar disruptions could result in security and privacy breaches and interruption in service, which could harm Allego’s business.

Computer malware, viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions could lead to interruption and delays in Allego’s operations and loss, misuse or theft of data. Computer malware, viruses, ransomware, hacking and phishing attacks against online networks have become more prevalent and may continue to occur on Allego’s systems in the future and on hardware manufacturers that supply Allego. Any attempts by cyber attackers to disrupt Allego’s operations, services or systems, if successful, could harm its business, introduce liability to data subjects, result in the misappropriation of company funds, be expensive to remedy and damage Allego’s reputation or brand. Insurance may not be sufficient to cover significant expenses and losses related to cyber-attacks. Efforts to prevent cyber attackers from entering computer systems are expensive to implement, and Allego may not be able to cause the implementation or enforcement of such prevention. Though it is difficult to determine what, if any, harm may directly result from any specific interruption or attack, any failure to maintain performance, reliability, security and availability of systems and technical infrastructure may, in addition to other losses, harm Allego’s reputation, brand and ability to operate reliably and to retain customers.

Allego has previously experienced, and may in the future experience, service disruptions, outages and other performance problems due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, third-party service providers, scalability issues with its software tools, human or software errors and capacity constraints. Allego relies on telecom networks to support reliable operation, management and maintenance of its charger network, charging session management, and driver authentication, and payment processing by customers depends on reliable connections with wireless communications networks. As a result, Allego’s operations depend on a handful of public carriers and are exposed to disruptions related to network outages and other communications issues on the carrier networks. Disruptions experienced in the payment chain from authorization to settlement also might cause financial harm, directly or indirectly to Allego. If Allego’s services or charging points are unavailable when users attempt to access them, they may seek other services or networks, which could reduce demand for Allego’s charging stations and services.

Allego has processes and procedures in place designed to enable it to recover from a disaster or catastrophe and continue business operations. However, there are several factors ranging from human error to data corruption that could materially impact the efficacy of such processes and procedures, including by lengthening the period of time that services are partially or fully unavailable to customers and users. It may be difficult or impossible to perform some or all recovery steps and continue normal business operations due to the nature of a particular disaster or catastrophe, especially during peak periods, which could cause additional reputational damages, contractual penalties or loss of revenues, any of which could adversely affect its business and financial results.

If Allego does not successfully implement, maintain or expand its processes and procedures relating to data security, its operations may be disrupted, and its ability to accurately and/or timely report its financial results could be impaired and deficiencies may arise in its internal control over financial reporting, which may impact its ability to certify its financial results.

The current lack of international standards may lead to uncertainty, additional competition and further unexpected costs.

Lack of unique industry standards for EV station management, coupled with utilities and other large organizations mandating their own specifications that have not become widely adopted in the industry, may hinder innovation or slow new solutions and services or new feature introduction.

In addition, automobile manufacturers may choose to utilize their own proprietary systems and networks, which could lock out competition for EV charging stations, or use their size and market position to influence the market, which could limit Allego’s market and reach to customers, negatively impacting its business.

Further, should regulatory bodies impose new standards that are not compatible with Allego’s infrastructure, it may incur significant costs to adapt its business model to the new regulatory standards, which may require significant time and, as a result, may have a material adverse effect on its revenues or results of operations.

Allego’s technology could have undetected defects, errors or bugs in hardware or software which could reduce market adoption, damage its reputation with current or prospective customers, and/or expose it to product liability and other claims that could materially and adversely affect its business.

Allego may be subject to claims that its charging stations have malfunctioned, and persons were injured or purported to be injured. Any insurance that Allego carries may not be sufficient or it may not apply to all situations. Similarly, to the extent that such malfunctions are related to components obtained from third-party vendors, such vendors may not assume responsibility for such malfunctions. In addition, Allego’s customers could be subjected to claims as a result of such incidents and may bring legal claims against Allego to attempt to hold it liable. Any of these events could adversely affect Allego’s brand, relationships with customers, operating results or financial condition.

Across Allego’s solutions and services line, Allego develops equipment solutions and services based on preferred second source or common off-the-shelf vendors. However, due to its design specifications, Allego does rely on certain single source vendors, the unavailability or failure to source from these vendors can pose risks to supply chain or product installation which may negatively impact Allego’s business.

Furthermore, Allego’s software platform is complex and includes a number of licensed third-party commercial and open-source software libraries. Allego’s software has contained defects and errors and may in the future contain undetected defects or errors. Allego is continuing to evolve the features and functionality of its platform through updates and enhancements, and as it does, it may introduce additional defects or errors that may not be detected until after deployment to customers. In addition, if Allego’s products and services, including any updates or patches, are not implemented or used correctly or as intended, inadequate performance and disruptions in service may result in non-working devices.

Any defects or errors in product or services offerings, or the perception of such defects or errors, or other performance problems could result in any of the following, each of which could adversely affect Allego’s business and results of its operations:

•expenditure of significant financial and product development resources, including recalls, in efforts to analyze, correct, eliminate or work around errors or defects;

•loss of existing or potential customers or partners;

•interruptions or delays in sales;

•delayed or lost revenue;

•delay or failure to attain market acceptance;

•delay in the development or release of new functionality or improvements;

•negative publicity and reputational harm;

•sales credits or refunds;

•exposure of confidential or proprietary information;

•diversion of development and customer service resources;

•breach of warranty claims;

•contractual penalties with services customers as it doesn’t meet its contractual obligations;

•legal claims under applicable laws, rules and regulations; and

•an increase in collection cycles for accounts receivable or the expense and risk of litigation.

Although Allego has contractual protections, such as warranty disclaimers and limitation of liability provisions in many of its agreements with customers and other business partners, such protections may not be uniformly implemented in all contracts and, where implemented, may not fully or effectively protect from claims by customers, business partners or other third parties. Any insurance coverage or indemnification obligations of suppliers may not adequately cover all such claims or cover only a portion of such claims. A successful product liability, warranty, or similar claim could have an adverse effect on Allego’s business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, even claims that ultimately are unsuccessful could result in expenditure of funds in litigation, divert management’s time and other resources and cause reputational harm.

Allego’s use of “open source” software could subject its proprietary software to general release, adversely affect its ability to sell its products and services, and subject it to possible litigation, claims or proceedings.

Table of Contents

Allego relies on some open-source software and libraries, including those issued under the General Public License (or similar “copyleft” licenses) for development of its products and may continue to rely on open source software in the future. Companies that use open source software in connection with their products have, from time to time, faced claims challenging the use of open source software and/or compliance with open source license terms. As a result, third parties may assert claims against Allego claiming ownership of what Allego believes to be open source software or claiming noncompliance with open source licensing terms. Some open source software licenses may require users who distribute proprietary software containing or linked to open source software to publicly disclose all or part of the source code to such proprietary software and/or make available any derivative works of the open source code under the same open source license, which could include proprietary source code. In such cases, the open source software license may also restrict us from charging fees to licensees for their use of our software. While we monitor the use of open source software and try to ensure that open source software is not used in a manner that would subject our proprietary source code to these requirements and restrictions, such use could inadvertently occur, which may decrease revenue and lessen any competitive advantage Allego has due to the secrecy of its source code.

Further, in addition to risks related to license requirements, use of certain open source software may carry greater technical and legal risks than does the use of third-party commercial software. For example, open source software is generally provided as-is without any support or warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement or the quality of the code, including the existence of security vulnerabilities. To the extent that Allego’s platform depends upon the successful operation of open source software, any undetected errors or defects in open source software that Allego uses could prevent the deployment or impair the functionality of its systems and injure its reputation. In addition, the public availability of such software may make it easier for attackers to target and compromise Allego’s platform through cyber-attacks. Any of the foregoing risks could materially and adversely affect Allego’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Interruptions, delays in service or inability to increase capacity, including internationally, at third-party data center facilities could impair the use or functionality of Allego’s operation, harm its business and subject it to liability.

Allego currently serves customers from third-party data center facilities operated by Microsoft Azure Services (“MAS”) located in the United States, Europe and Canada. In addition to MAS, some Allego services are housed in third-party data centers. Any outage or failure of MAS or of such data centers could negatively affect Allego’s product connectivity and performance. Furthermore, Allego depends on connectivity from its charging stations to its data centers through cellular service providers, such as KPN, a Dutch cellular service provider. Any incident affecting a data center facility’s or a cellular service provider’s infrastructure or operations, whether caused by fire, flood, severe storm, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications failures, breach of security protocols, computer viruses and disabling devices, failure of access control mechanisms, natural disasters, war, criminal act, military actions, terrorist attacks and other similar events could negatively affect the use, functionality or availability of Allego’s services.

Any damage to, or failure of, Allego’s systems, or those of its third-party providers, could interrupt or hinder the use or functionality of its services. Impairment of or interruptions in Allego’s services may reduce revenue, subject it to claims and litigation, cause customers to terminate their subscriptions, and adversely affect renewal rates and its ability to attract new customers. Allego’s business will also be harmed if customers and potential customers believe its products and services are unreliable.

Allego expects to incur research and development costs and devote significant resources to developing new solutions, services and technologies and to enhancing its existing solutions and services, which could significantly reduce its profitability and may never result in revenue to Allego.

Allego’s future growth depends on penetrating new markets, adapting existing products to new applications and customer requirements, and introducing new solutions and services that achieve market acceptance. Allego plans to incur significant research and development costs in the future as part of its efforts to design, develop, manufacture and introduce new solutions and services, new technologies and enhance existing solutions and services. Allego’s development expenses were €4.6 million in 2023, €4.0 million in 2022, and €3.0 million in 2021, and are likely to be similar in the future. These expenses related to the development of Allego’s EV Cloud platform and have been capitalized as intangible assets. Further, Allego’s research and development program may not produce successful results, and its new solutions and services or new technologies may not achieve market acceptance, create additional revenue or become profitable. Allego’s potential inability to develop the necessary software and technology systems may harm its competitive position. Allego is also relying on third-party suppliers to develop a number of emerging technologies for use in its products. These technologies are not today, and may not ever be, commercially viable. There can be no assurances that Allego’s suppliers will be able to meet the technological requirements, scalability, quality, production timing, and volume requirements to support its business plan. As a result, Allego’s business plan could be significantly impacted.

Customer-Related Risks

Allego may be unable to increase the demand for its public charging network, which could adversely affect its profitability and growth.

Allego’s development strategy consists, in part, on the rollout of public charging sites with a combination mostly of fast and ultra-fast charging capabilities. The growth in utilization of these charging sites is key for the profitability of Allego’s business. If utilization does not increase, if the adoption of fast and ultra-fast charging is slower than expected, or if the marketing cost to increase such utilization, either directly or through third parties, is increasing widely, the profitability and growth of Allego may be adversely affected. The expected premium for fast and ultra-fast charging compared to slow charging may not be realized, hampering the growth of fast and ultra-fast charging which may adversely affect Allego’s profitability and growth.

Allego’s business will depend on the utilization of its network by EV drivers and the mobility service providers (“MSPs”) to offer access to Allego’s network. If EV drivers do not continue to use Allego’s network or MSPs do not continue to offer access to Allego’s network, Allego’s business and operating results will be adversely affected.

Allego depends on traffic from EV drivers to charge on its network and partly from MSPs that facilitate the use of Allego’s network to a larger base of EV drivers. Allego has a very large base of MSPs. However, if some MSPs do not offer access to Allego’s network for whatever reason or if EV drivers do not use its network due to pricing or lack of services, among other reasons, the utilization of Allego’s sites will be hampered. EV drivers’ retention on Allego’s network may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including satisfaction with software and features, functionality of the charging sites, prices, features and pricing of competing solutions and services, reductions in spending levels, mergers and acquisitions involving networks from competitors and deteriorating general economic conditions. If customers do not use Allego’s charging network or if they opt to use other charging options, its business and operating results will be adversely affected.

Failure to effectively expand Allego’s sites could harm its ability to increase revenue.

Allego’s ability to grow the number of EV drivers using its charging network, to expand its customer base, achieve broader market share, grow revenue, and achieve and sustain profitability will depend, to a significant extent, on its ability to effectively expand its site development on the one hand and its sales and marketing operations to customers on the other hand. Site development, sales and marketing expenses represent a significant percentage of its total revenue, and its operating results may suffer if site development, sales and marketing expenditures do not increase to support revenue.

Allego is substantially dependent on its direct development team to develop new sites and sales in order to obtain new customers and contracts. Allego also plans to continue to expand its development team with the support of external parties. The proper coordination and efficiency of site prospection is key to increasing Allego’s revenue. Allego may not be able to recruit, hire and retain a sufficient number of site developers, which may adversely affect its ability to expand its charging sites. New sales and marketing personnel will be needed to grow Allego’s services business as well. New hires require significant training and investment before they achieve full productivity, particularly in new sales territories. Allego may be unable to hire or retain sufficient qualified individuals. Furthermore, hiring sales personnel in new markets where Allego seeks to operate can be costly, complex and time-consuming, and requires additional upfront costs that may be disproportionate to the initial revenue expected from those markets. There is significant competition for direct sales personnel. Allego’s ability to achieve significant revenue growth in the future will depend, in large part, on its success in recruiting, training, incentivizing and retaining a sufficient number of qualified direct site developers and sales personnel and on such personnel attaining desired productivity levels within a reasonable amount of time. Allego’s business will be harmed if continuing investment in its site development, sales and marketing capabilities does not generate a significant increase in revenue. Allego’s operations may be unable to cope appropriately with the growth of its operating charging points, preventing it from fully benefitting from such growth. Such limitations might come from external suppliers for software and IT-related services as well as from the capacity of Allego to properly upgrade its software platform. Allego could also face contractual penalties with its services customers if it is unable to meet its contractual obligations as a result of these limitations.

Risks Related to Ownership of Allego Securities

Allego could be treated as a U.S. corporation or a “surrogate foreign corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Business Combination.

Under current U.S. federal income tax law, a corporation is generally considered to be a tax resident in the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation. Therefore, a corporation organized under the laws of the Netherlands would generally be treated as a non-U.S. corporation (and, therefore, not a U.S. tax resident) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Section

15

Table of Contents

7874 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, however, contain rules that may cause a non-U.S. corporation that acquires the stock of a U.S. corporation to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under certain circumstances (an “Inverted Corporation”). If Allego were an Inverted Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, among other consequences, it would generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its worldwide income, and its dividends, if any, would be subject to taxation by the United States as dividends from a U.S. corporation. Regardless of the application of Section 7874 of the Code, Allego is expected to be treated as a Dutch tax resident for Dutch tax purposes. Consequently, if Allego were an Inverted Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7874 of the Code, it could be liable for both U.S. and Dutch taxes and dividends paid by Allego to its shareholders could be subject to both U.S. and Dutch withholding taxes.

In addition, even if Allego is not an Inverted Corporation pursuant to Section 7874 of the Code, it may be subject to unfavorable treatment as a “surrogate foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 7874(a)(2)(B) of the Code) under certain circumstances (a “Surrogate Foreign Corporation”). If it was determined that Allego is a Surrogate Foreign Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7874 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, dividends, if any, made by Allego would not qualify for “qualified dividend income” treatment, and U.S. affiliates of Allego, if any, could be subject to increased taxation under the Code.

Allego does not expect to be an Inverted Corporation or Surrogate Foreign Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and Allego intends to take this position on its tax returns. Allego has not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS as to such tax treatment. Further, there can be no assurance that your tax advisor, Allego’s tax advisors, the IRS, or a court will agree with the position that Allego is not an Inverted Corporation or Surrogate Foreign Corporation pursuant to Section 7874 of the Code. Allego is not representing to you that Allego will not be treated as an Inverted Corporation or Surrogate Foreign Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 7874 of the Code. The rules for determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is an Inverted Corporation or Surrogate Foreign Corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes are complex, unclear, and the subject of ongoing regulatory change. Allego’s intended position is not free from doubt.

If Allego were a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders of Allego Ordinary Shares could be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

If Allego is treated as a PFIC within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined in “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) holds Allego Ordinary Shares (regardless of whether Allego remains a PFIC for subsequent taxable years), certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, such as taxation at the highest marginal ordinary income tax rates on capital gains and on certain actual or deemed distributions, and interest charges on certain taxes treated as deferred, and additional reporting requirements may apply to such U.S. Holder. Under certain circumstances, certain elections may be available to U.S. Holders of Allego Ordinary Shares to mitigate some of the adverse tax consequences resulting from PFIC treatment.

PFIC status depends on the composition of a company’s income and assets and the fair market value of its assets from time to time, as well as on the application of complex statutory and regulatory rules that are subject to potentially varying or changing interpretations. Based on the composition of Allego’s income and assets, including goodwill, Allego expects to take the position that it was not a PFIC for the taxable year of the Business Combination, but such position will not be free from doubt. Allego’s PFIC status for the taxable year of the Business Combination or any subsequent taxable year will not be determinable until after the end of each such taxable year, and Allego cannot assure you that it will not be a PFIC in the taxable year of the Business Combination or in any subsequent taxable year. If Allego were later determined to be a PFIC, you may be unable to make certain advantageous elections with respect to your ownership of Allego Securities that would mitigate the adverse consequences of Allego’s PFIC status, or making such elections retroactively could have adverse tax consequences to you. Allego is not representing to you, and there can be no assurance, that Allego will not be treated as a PFIC for the taxable year of the Business Combination or in any subsequent taxable year. Allego has not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS or any opinion from any tax advisor as to such tax treatment. U.S. Holders should consult with, and rely solely upon, their tax advisors to determine the application of the PFIC rules to them and any resultant tax consequences.

For more information about the tax considerations with respect to PFIC classification to Holders, please refer to “Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

The issuance of additional shares in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, our long term incentive plan, contributions from Madeleine or otherwise could dilute the ownership and voting power of shareholders.

Allego may need to raise additional financing through loans, securities offerings or additional investments in order to fund its ongoing operations. If Allego chooses to raise additional financing through the issuance of Allego Ordinary Shares, such additional Allego Ordinary Shares or such other securities may be issued at a discount to the market price of Allego Ordinary Shares at the time of issuance. Furthermore, in the event of an issuance of Ordinary Shares or a grant of rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions, each shareholder will have a pro rata preemption right in proportion to the aggregate nominal value of such holder’s Ordinary Shares. These pre-emption rights may be restricted or excluded by a resolution of the General Meeting or by another corporate body designated by the General Meeting. Our Board has been authorized for a period of five years from the Closing Date to issue shares or grant rights to subscribe for shares up to our authorized share capital from time to time and to limit or exclude pre-emption rights in connection therewith. Any issuance of such securities could result in substantial dilution to Allego’s existing shareholders and cause the market price of Allego Ordinary Shares to decline.

The Allego Articles include exclusive jurisdiction and forum selection provisions, which may impact the ability of shareholders to bring actions against us or increase the costs of bringing such actions.

The Allego Articles include exclusive jurisdiction and forum selection provisions, which may impact the ability of shareholders to bring actions against Allego or increase the costs of bringing such actions. The Allego Articles provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and unless Allego consents to the selection of an alternative forum, with respect to any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, the federal courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for resolving any such complaint. These limitations on the forum in which shareholders may initiate action against us may limit a shareholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable and could increase the costs and inconvenience of pursuing claims or otherwise adversely affect a shareholder’s ability to seek monetary or other relief. There is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions with respect to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and a court could decline to enforce these exclusive jurisdiction and forum provisions with respect to such claims. Furthermore, investors are not able to waive compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. If a court were to find these provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions.

Financial and Accounting-Related Risks

Allego’s financial condition and results of operations are likely to fluctuate on a quarterly basis in future periods, which could cause its results for a particular period to fall below expectations, resulting in a decline in the price of Allego Ordinary Shares.

Allego’s financial condition and results of operations have fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond its control.

In addition to the other risks described herein, the following factors could also cause Allego’s financial condition and results of operations to fluctuate on a quarterly basis:

•the timing and volume of new site acquisitions;

•the timing of new electricity grid connections and permits;

•the cost of electricity;

•fluctuations in service costs, particularly due to unexpected costs of servicing and maintaining charging stations;

•weaker than anticipated demand for charging stations, whether due to changes in government incentives and policies or due to other conditions;

•fluctuations in sales and marketing or research and development expenses;

•supply chain interruptions and manufacturing or delivery delays;

•the timing and availability of new solutions and services relative to customers’ and investors’ expectations;

•the length of the sales and installation cycle for a particular customer;

•the potential impact of pandemics on Allego’s workforce, or those of its suppliers, vendors or business partners and its customers;

17

Table of Contents

•disruptions in sales, operations, IT services or other business activities or Allego’s inability to attract and retain qualified personnel; and

•unanticipated changes in regional, federal, state, local or foreign government incentive programs, which can affect demand for EVs.

Fluctuations in operating results and cash flow could, among other things, give rise to short-term liquidity issues. In addition, revenue, and other operating results in future quarters may fall short of the expectations of investors and financial analysts, which could have an adverse effect on the price of Allego Ordinary Shares.

Changes to applicable tax laws and regulations or exposure to additional tax liabilities could adversely affect Allego’s business and future profitability.

Allego conducts operations, directly and through its subsidiaries, within the European Union and the United Kingdom, and Allego and its subsidiaries will therefore be subject to income taxes in such jurisdictions. Allego may also in the future become subject to income taxes in other foreign jurisdictions. Allego’s effective income tax rate could be adversely affected by a number of factors, including changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes in tax laws, changes in accounting and tax standards or practices, changes in the composition of operating income by tax jurisdictions, changes in Allego’s operating results before taxes, and the outcome of income tax audits in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Allego will regularly assess all of these matters to determine the adequacy of its tax liabilities. If any of Allego’s assessments are ultimately determined to be incorrect, Allego’s business, results of operations, or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Due to the complexity of multinational tax obligations and filings, Allego and its subsidiaries may have a heightened risk related to audits or examinations by federal, state, provincial, and local taxing authorities in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Outcomes from these audits or examinations could have a material adverse effect on Allego’s business, results of operations, or financial condition.

The tax laws of the jurisdictions in which Allego operates, as well as potentially any other jurisdiction in which Allego may operate in the future, have detailed transfer pricing rules that require that all transactions with related parties satisfy arm’s length pricing principles. Although Allego believes that its transfer pricing policies have been reasonably determined in accordance with arm’s length principles, the taxation authorities in the jurisdictions where Allego carries on business could challenge its transfer pricing policies. International transfer pricing is a subjective area of taxation and generally involves a significant degree of judgment. If any of these taxation authorities were to successfully challenge Allego’s transfer pricing policies, Allego could be subject to additional income tax expenses, including interest and penalties, as well as transfer pricing mismatches. Any such increase in Allego’s income tax expense and related interest and penalties could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Allego may also be adversely affected by changes in the relevant tax laws and tax rates, treaties, regulations, administrative practices and principles, judicial decisions, and interpretations thereof, in each case, possibly with retroactive effect.

As a result of Allego’s plans to expand operations, including to jurisdictions in which the tax laws may not be favorable, Allego’s effective tax rate may fluctuate, tax obligations may become significantly more complex and subject to greater risk of examination by taxing authorities or Allego may be subject to future changes in tax laws, in each case, the impacts of which could adversely affect Allego’s after-tax profitability and financial results.

In the event that Allego expands its operating business in the European Union or the United Kingdom, or to other jurisdictions, Allego’s effective tax rates may fluctuate widely in the future. Future effective tax rates could be affected by: operating losses in jurisdictions where no tax benefit can be recorded under IFRS, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, changes in tax laws or the regulatory environment, changes in accounting and tax standards or practices, changes in the composition of operating income by tax jurisdiction, and the pre-tax operating results of Allego’s business.

Additionally, Allego’s after-tax profitability and financial results could be subject to volatility or be affected by numerous factors, including (a) the availability of tax deductions, credits, exemptions, refunds and other benefits to reduce tax liabilities, (b) changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, if any, (c) the expected timing and amount of the release of any tax valuation allowances, (d) the tax treatment of stock-based compensation, (e) changes in the relative amount of earnings subject to tax in the various jurisdictions, (f) the potential business expansion into, or otherwise becoming subject to tax in, additional jurisdictions, (g) changes to existing intercompany structure (and any costs related thereto) and business operations, (h) the extent of intercompany transactions and the extent to which taxing authorities in relevant jurisdictions respect those intercompany transactions, and (i) the ability to structure business operations in an efficient and competitive manner. Outcomes from audits or examinations by taxing authorities could have an adverse effect on Allego’s after-tax profitability and financial condition. Additionally, several tax authorities have increasingly focused

18

Table of Contents

attention on intercompany transfer pricing with respect to sales of products and services and the use of intangibles. Tax authorities could disagree with Allego’s intercompany charges, cross- jurisdictional transfer pricing or other matters and assess additional taxes. If Allego does not prevail in any such disagreements, its profitability may be affected.

Allego’s after-tax profitability and financial results may also be adversely affected by changes in relevant tax laws and tax rates, treaties, regulations, administrative practices and principles, judicial decisions and interpretations thereof, in each case, possibly with retroactive effect.

Allego’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.

The ability of Allego to utilize net operating loss and tax loss carryforwards and other tax attributes (including carry-forward non-deductible interest expenses under the Dutch earnings stripping rule) is conditioned upon Allego’s attaining profitability and generating taxable income. Additionally, Allego’s ability to utilize net operating loss and tax loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations. Allego Holding and its Dutch group entities incurred significant net losses since inception and Allego is expected to continue to incur significant losses. In this respect, the exact amounts of the tax losses of Allego Holding and its Dutch subsidiaries for the financial years 2021, 2022 and 2023 are not fully clear since the Dutch corporate income tax returns for 2021, 2022 and 2023 still have to be filed with the Dutch Tax Authorities and the Dutch Tax Authorities still have to review and approve this tax return. That said, the amount of tax losses of Allego Holding and its Dutch subsidiaries with respect to the period prior to the Business Combination has been discussed with the Dutch Tax Authorities and the Dutch Tax Authorities have confirmed that the Business Combination does not result in the application of the Dutch change in ownership rules. As a result, the tax losses incurred prior to the Business Combination and allocable to Allego Holding and its Dutch subsidiaries will remain available for set-off following the Business Combination (and the termination of the Dutch tax group as a result thereof). The Dutch Tax Authorities concurred with the methodology of allocating the tax losses to Allego Holding and its Dutch subsidiaries at the time of the Business Combination in respect of the tax losses (to be) incurred based on the filed tax returns for the financial years 2018, 2019 and 2020. For the years 2021, 2022 and 2023 a similar outcome can in principle be expected after filing the tax returns for these years. However, going forward, these tax losses will only be available for set off against taxable income actually realized by Allego Holding and its Dutch subsidiaries, in respect of tax losses incurred and allocated to Allego Holding, or its relevant Dutch subsidiary, in respect of tax losses incurred and allocated to that Dutch subsidiary.

In Note 30 regarding Taxation more specific elaboration on Allego's ability to use its tax losses available for carryforward to fully offset taxable income for Dutch tax purposes is outlined.

Allego prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB, which is different than the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The SEC permits foreign private issuers to file consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board’s (“IASB”). As a foreign private issuer, Allego prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The application by Allego of different accounting standards, a change in the rules of IFRS as issued by the IASB, or in the acceptance of such rules by the SEC, could have a significant effect on Allego’s reported financial results. Additionally, U.S. GAAP is subject to interpretation by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC, and various bodies formed to promulgate and interpret appropriate accounting principles. IFRS are subject to change or revision by the IASB. A change in these principles or interpretations could have a significant effect on Allego’s reported financial results.

Allego faces increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Allego faces increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that it did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the securities exchanges, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements increases costs and makes certain activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements require it to carry out activities Allego has not done previously. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements are incurred. Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identified (for example, if Allego's auditors identify a significant deficiency or additional material weaknesses in the internal control over financial reporting), Allego could incur additional costs to rectify those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect its reputation or investor perceptions. In addition, Allego purchases director and officer

19

Table of Contents

liability insurance, which has substantial additional premiums. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations increase legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. Advocacy efforts by shareholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.

Allego has identified, and has previously identified, material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. If Allego is unable to remediate these material weaknesses, or if Allego identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fails to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements of Allego consolidated financial statements or cause Allego to fail to meet its periodic reporting obligations, which may have an adverse effect on the share price.

As of December 31, 2023, Allego is required to provide management’s attestation on internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The standards required for a public company under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are significantly more stringent than those previously required of Allego as a privately-held company. Management has not been able to effectively implement controls and procedures that adequately respond to the increased regulatory compliance and reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which may subject it to adverse regulatory consequences or restatements of its consolidated financial statements and could harm investor confidence.

In connection with the preparation and audit of Allego’s consolidated financial statements, material weaknesses were identified in its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. See “Item 15. Controls and Procedures” of this Annual Report. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of Allego’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management identified the following material weaknesses:

•Allego did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with the appropriate degree of accounting knowledge, experience and training, to adequately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters commensurate with its accounting and reporting requirements.

•Allego did not adequately maintain formal accounting policies, procedures, including those around risk assessments, and controls, including segregation of duties, over accounts and disclosures to achieve complete, accurate and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures, including segregation of duties and adequate controls related to the preparation and review of journal entries, and related party transactions. Further, Allego did not maintain sufficient entity level controls to prevent and correct material misstatements.

•Allego did not adequately maintain controls over the identification and assessment of recurring transactions in revenue recognition, including modification to contracts, inventory management and valuation, investment in equity securities valuation, and lease accounting as well as the proper accounting of unusual significant transactions such as in areas of share-based payments and related party transactions.

•Allego did not adequately document controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls, including third-party IT service providers, for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Specifically, Allego did not design and maintain (a) program change management controls to ensure that information technology program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately and (b) user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and that adequately restrict user and privileged access to its financial applications and data to appropriate company personnel.

The material weakness related to formal accounting policies, procedures and controls resulted in adjustments to several accounts and disclosures. The IT deficiencies did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements, however, the deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact maintaining effective segregation of duties, as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls that could result in misstatements potentially impacting all financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected. Each of these material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Allego has begun implementing a plan to remediate these material weaknesses; however, its overall control environment is still immature and may expose it to errors, losses or fraud. These remediation measures are ongoing and include hiring additional IT, accounting and financial reporting personnel and implementing additional policies, procedures and controls. Allego currently cannot estimate when it will be able to remediate these material weaknesses and it cannot, at this time, provide an estimate of the costs it expects to incur in connection with implementing the plan to remediate these material weaknesses. These remediation measures may be time consuming, costly, and might place significant demands on its

financial and operational resources. If Allego is unable to successfully remediate these material weaknesses or successfully rely on outside advisors with expertise in these matters to assist it in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements could contain material misstatements that, when discovered in the future, could cause Allego to fail to meet its future reporting obligations and cause the trading price of Allego Ordinary Shares to decline.

Further, Allego’s independent registered public accounting firm is not required to formally attest to the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting until after it is no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the U.S. legislation Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). At such time, Allego’s independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which its internal control over financial reporting is documented, designed or operating. Any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect the business and operating results and could cause a decline in the trading price of Allego Ordinary Shares. In addition, even if Allego is successful in strengthening its internal controls and procedures, in the future those internal controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or sufficiently identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of Allego’s consolidated financial statements.

Risks Related to Legal Matters and Regulations

Members of Allego’s management have limited experience in operating a public company.

Allego’s executive officers have limited experience in the management of a publicly-traded company. The management team may not successfully or effectively manage a public company that is and will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Our management team’s limited experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a significant disadvantage as an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to complying with such laws, which will result in less time being devoted to the management of the company. Allego currently has limited personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal control over financial reporting required of public companies. The development and implementation of the standards and controls and the hiring of experienced personnel necessary to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company may require costs greater than expected.

Privacy concerns and laws, or other domestic or foreign regulations, may adversely affect Allego’s business.

Transnational organizations such as the European Union, national and local governments and agencies in the countries in which Allego and its customers operate or reside have adopted, are considering adopting, or may adopt laws and regulations regarding the collection, use, storage, processing and disclosure of information regarding consumers and other individuals, which could impact its ability to offer services in certain jurisdictions. Laws and regulations relating to the collection, use, disclosure, security and other processing of individuals’ information can vary significantly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and are particularly stringent in Europe. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, laws, regulations, standards and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection and information security are significant. In addition, some companies, particularly larger enterprises, often will not contract with companies that do not meet these rigorous standards. Accordingly, the failure, or perceived inability, to comply with these laws, regulations, standards and other obligations may limit the use and adoption of Allego’s solutions, reduce overall demand, lead to regulatory investigations, litigation and significant fines, penalties or liabilities for actual or alleged noncompliance, or slow the pace at which we close sales transactions, any of which could harm its business. Moreover, if Allego or any of its employees or contractors fail or are believed to fail to adhere to appropriate practices regarding customers’ data, it may damage its reputation and brand.

Additionally, existing laws, regulations, standards and other obligations may be interpreted in new and differing manners in the future, and may be inconsistent among jurisdictions. Future laws, regulations, standards and other obligations, and changes in the interpretation of existing laws, regulations, standards and other obligations could result in increased regulation, increased costs of compliance and penalties for non-compliance, and limitations on data collection, use, disclosure and transfer for Allego and its customers.

Additionally, the EU adopted the GDPR in 2016, which became effective in May 2018. The GDPR establishes requirements applicable to the handling of personal data and imposes penalties for non-compliance of up to the greater of € 20 million or 4% of worldwide revenue. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the GDPR may limit the use and adoption of Allego’s solutions and services and could have an adverse impact on its business. Although Allego initiated a compliance program designed to ensure GDPR compliance, Allego may remain exposed to ongoing legal risks related to GDPR and any amendments that may be made by the European Union.

Furthermore, in 2020, the European Union adopted a European Strategy for Data that may lead to further regulation of data use. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, these new regulations may limit the use and adoption of Allego’s solutions and services and could have an adverse impact on its business.

The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection and information security that are applicable to the businesses of customers may adversely affect ability and willingness to process, handle, store, use and transmit certain types of information, such as demographic and other personal information.

In addition to government activity, privacy advocacy groups, the technology industry and other industries have established or may establish various new, additional or different self-regulatory standards that may place additional burdens on technology companies. Customers may expect that Allego will meet voluntary certifications or adhere to other standards established by them or third parties. If Allego is unable to maintain these certifications or meet these standards, it could reduce demand for its solutions and adversely affect its business.

Failure to comply with anticorruption and anti-money laundering laws, including the FCPA, the European Directive (EU) 2015/849, the UK Bribery Act 2010 and similar laws associated with activities inside and outside of the United States and Europe, could subject Allego to penalties and other adverse consequences.

Allego is subject to the FCPA, the U.S. domestic bribery statute contained in 18 U.S.C. § 201, the U.S. Travel Act, the USA PATRIOT Act, the UK Bribery Act, the European Directive (EU) 2015/849 and possibly other anti-bribery and anti-money laundering laws in countries in which it conducts activities. Allego is subject to regulations and as a result, interacts with foreign officials. In connection therewith, it faces significant risks if it fails to comply with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws that prohibit companies and their employees and third-party intermediaries from promising, authorizing, offering or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to foreign government officials, political parties and private-sector recipients for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business, directing business to any person or securing any advantage. Any violation of the FCPA, other applicable anti-corruption laws, and anti-money laundering laws could result in whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, loss of export privileges, or severe criminal or civil sanctions, which could have a materially adverse effect on Allego’s reputation, business, operating results and prospects. In addition, responding to any enforcement action may result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources, significant defense costs and other professional fees.

Failure to comply with laws relating to employment could subject Allego to penalties and other adverse consequences.

Allego is subject to various employment-related laws in the jurisdictions in which its employees are based. It faces risks if it fails to comply with applicable regional, federal or state wage laws. Any violation of applicable wage laws or other labor- or employment-related laws could result in complaints by current or former employees, adverse media coverage, investigations and damages or penalties, which could have a materially adverse effect on Allego’s reputation, business, operating results and prospects. In addition, responding to any such proceeding may result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources, significant defense costs and other professional fees.

Existing and future environmental and health and safety laws and regulations could result in increased compliance costs or additional operating costs or construction costs and restrictions. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in substantial fines or other limitations that may adversely impact Allego’s financial results or results of operation.

Allego and its operations, as well as those of Allego’s contractors, suppliers and customers, are subject to certain environmental laws and regulations, including laws related to the use, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of wastes including electronic wastes and hardware, whether hazardous or not. These laws may require Allego or others in Allego’s value chain to obtain permits and comply with procedures that impose various restrictions and obligations that could materially affect Allego’s operations. If key permits and approvals cannot be obtained on acceptable terms, or if other operational requirements cannot be met in a manner satisfactory for Allego’s operations or on a timeline that meets Allego’s commercial obligations, it may adversely impact its business.

Environmental and health and safety laws and regulations can be complex and may be subject to change, such as through new requirements enacted at the supranational, national, sub-national and/or local level or new or modified regulations that may be implemented under existing law. The nature and extent of any changes in these laws, rules, regulations and permits may be unpredictable and may have material effects on Allego’s business. Future legislation and regulations or changes in existing legislation and regulations, or interpretations thereof, including those relating to hardware manufacturing, electronic waste or batteries, could cause additional expenditures, restrictions and delays in connection with Allego’s operations, the extent of which cannot be predicted.

Further, Allego currently relies on third parties to ensure compliance with certain environmental laws, including those related to the disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous wastes. Any failure to properly handle or dispose of such wastes, regardless of whether such failure is Allego’s or its contractors, may result in liability under environmental laws pursuant to which liability may be imposed without regard to fault or degree of contribution for the investigation and clean-up of

22

Table of Contents

contaminated sites, as well as impacts to human health and damages to natural resources. Additionally, Allego may not be able to secure contracts with third parties to continue their key supply chain and disposal services for our business, which may result in increased costs for compliance with environmental laws and regulations.

Increasing attention to Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) matters may adversely impact Allego’s business.

Climate-related events, including the increasing frequency of extreme weather events and their impact on critical infrastructure, have the potential to disrupt our business and those of our third-party suppliers and customers, and may cause us to experience higher attrition, losses and additional costs to maintain or resume operations or provide services.

Increasing attention to, and societal expectations on companies to address, climate change and other environmental and social impacts and investor and societal expectations regarding voluntary ESG disclosures may result in increased costs and impact access to capital.

In addition, organizations that provide information to investors on corporate governance and related matters have developed ratings processes for evaluating companies on their approach to ESG matters. These ratings are often developed in a manner that can make it challenging to predict a company’s performance, and unfavorable ESG ratings could lead to increased negative investor sentiment toward the Company and could impact Allego’s access to and costs of capital. Additionally, to the extent ESG matters negatively impact Allego’s reputation, Allego may not be able to compete as effectively to recruit or retain employees, which may adversely affect Allego’s business. ESG matters may also impact Allego’s suppliers, which may lead to Allego being required or choosing to change suppliers that may otherwise have been the most economically efficient, which may in turn adversely impact Allego’s business and financial condition.

New climate disclosure rules adopted by the SEC and further ESG-related regulation may increase Allego’s costs of compliance and adversely impact Allego’s business.

On March 21, 2022, the SEC proposed new rules relating to the disclosure of a range of climate-related risks, which were adopted on March 6, 2024 and expected to be effective for Allego as of financial year 2027; however, in April 2024, the SEC issued an order to voluntarily stay its final climate rules pending the completion of judicial review thereof by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Further, similar disclosure obligations have been implemented, and have been proposed, in other jurisdictions (including in the EU and the UK). Allego is currently assessing the impact of the rules, and expects to incur increased costs relating to the assessment and disclosure of climate-related risks and costs, but at this time such costs or any potential adverse impacts resulting from the rules cannot be reliably predicted. Allego may also face increased litigation risks related to disclosures made pursuant to the rules. Similar risks may also apply to Allego in relation to its obligations to comply with existing and future climate and ESG-related regulation across a number of jurisdictions.

We are a foreign private issuer and, as a result, we are not subject to U.S. proxy rules and are subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of a U.S. domestic public company.

We are a foreign private issuer and, as a result, we are not subject to U.S. proxy rules and are subject to Exchange Act reporting obligations that, to some extent, are more lenient and less frequent than those of a U.S. domestic public company. Because we are a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act, we are exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including (i) the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act, (ii) the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and liability for insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time and (iii) the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information. In addition, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, while U.S. domestic issuers that are accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 75 days after the end of each fiscal year and U.S. domestic issuers that are large accelerated filers are required to file their annual report on Form 10-K within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year. Foreign private issuers are also exempt from Regulation FD, which is intended to prevent issuers from making selective disclosures of material information. As a result of all of the above, shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of a company that is not a foreign private issuer.

We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses.

We are a foreign private issuer, and therefore, we are not required to comply with all of the periodic disclosure and current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last

23

Table of Contents

business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to us on June 30, 2024. In the future, we would lose our foreign private issuer status if (i) more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are owned by U.S. residents and (ii) a majority of our directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents, or we fail to meet additional requirements necessary to avoid loss of foreign private issuer status. If we lose our foreign private issuer status, we will be required to file with the SEC periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms, which are more detailed and extensive than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We will also have to mandatorily comply with U.S. federal proxy requirements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders will become subject to the short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, we will lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements under the listing rules of NYSE. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, we will incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that we will not incur as a foreign private issuer, and accounting, reporting and other expenses in order to maintain a listing on a U.S. securities exchange. These expenses will relate to, among other things, the obligation to present our financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the future.

We are not obligated to, and do not, comply with all best practice provisions of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code.

We are subject to the Dutch Corporate Governance Code (“DCGC”). The DCGC contains principles and best practice provisions on corporate governance that regulate relations between the Board and the General Meeting and matters in respect of financial reporting, auditors, disclosure, compliance and enforcement standards. The DCGC is based on a “comply or explain” principle. Accordingly, companies must disclose in their statutory annual reports whether they comply with the provisions of the DCGC. If a company subject to the DCGC does not comply with those provisions, that company would be required to give the reasons for such non-compliance. We do not comply with all best practice provisions of the DCGC. This may affect your rights as a shareholder and you may not have the same level of protection as a shareholder in a Dutch company that fully complies with the DCGC.

As we are a foreign private issuer and may follow certain home country corporate governance practices, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all NYSE governance requirements.

As a foreign private issuer, we have the option to follow certain home country corporate governance practices rather than those of NYSE, provided that we disclose the requirements we are not following and describe the home country practices we are following. We rely or may rely, as applicable, on this “foreign private issuer exemption” with respect to the NYSE requirements with respect to shareholder meeting quorums, shareholder approval and certain board, committee and director independence requirements. However, we may in the future elect to follow home country practices with regard to other matters. As a result, our shareholders may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all NYSE corporate governance requirements.

We may become subject to the Dutch large company regime which would affect our governance structure, including how the members of our board are appointed and dismissed.

We may become subject to the large company regime (structuurregime) under Dutch law if we have filed a statement with the Dutch trade register for a consecutive period of three years stating that (i) according to our balance sheet with explanatory notes, our issued share capital together with our reserves amounts to at least EUR 16 million, (ii) we, or any of our dependent companies (as defined by Dutch law), has established a Dutch works council pursuant to a statutory requirement under Dutch law and (iii) we and our dependent companies (as defined by Dutch law) together regularly employ at least 100 employees in the Netherlands. If we become subject to this large company regime, this would affect the governance structure of our company. Among other matters, our executive directors would then be appointed by our non-executive directors (instead of the general meeting) and certain nomination rights (including for our Dutch works council) would apply to the appointment of our non-executive directors. We have never filed a statement that we meet the criteria of the structure regime and do not expect to qualify under this regime for at least the next three years.

Dutch and European insolvency laws are substantially different from U.S. insolvency laws and may offer our shareholders less protection than they would have under U.S. insolvency laws.

We are subject to Dutch insolvency laws in the event any insolvency proceedings are initiated against us, including, among other laws and regulations, Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 20, 2015 on insolvency proceedings. Should a court in another Member State of the European Union determine that our center of main interests (COMI) is situated in that Member State, the courts in that Member State will in principle have jurisdiction over the insolvency proceedings initiated against us and the insolvency laws of that Member State will in principle apply to us,

24

Table of Contents

in accordance with and subject to such the aforementioned Regulation and the rules promulgated thereunder. Insolvency laws in the Netherlands or the relevant other Member State of the European Union, as applicable, may offer our shareholders less protection than they would have under U.S. insolvency laws and make it more difficult for our shareholders to recover the amount they could expect to recover in a liquidation or restructuring under U.S. insolvency laws.

If we are unable for any reason to meet the continued listing requirements of the NYSE, such action or inaction could result in a delisting of our securities.

On March 14, 2024, we were notified by the NYSE that we were not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of our Ordinary Shares was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The notice had no immediate impact on the listing of our Ordinary Shares, which continued to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the period allowed to regain compliance, subject to our compliance with other listing standards. On May 1, 2024, the NYSE notified us that we had regained compliance based on a calculation of the Company’s average closing share price for the 30 trading days ended April 30, 2024, which reflected an average closing share price above the NYSE’s $1.00 minimum requirement. While we were able to bring the Company back in compliance with the NYSE listing requirements within the six-month window for recompliance, it is possible that this may occur again and we will not be able to bring the Company back in compliance within such window or at all.

If we cannot remain in compliance with the NYSE listing requirements, or cannot regain compliance after becoming non-compliant in the future, our Ordinary Shares will be delisted from the NYSE. For example, our Ordinary Shares could also be delisted if (i) our average market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period is less than $15 million or (ii) our Ordinary Shares trade at an “abnormally low” price. Additionally, the NYSE considers a listed company to be out of compliance with its continued listing standards if the company’s average global market capitalization over a 30 consecutive trading-day period is less than $50.0 million and, at the same time, the company’s shareholders’ equity is less than $50.0 million. In the event of a delisting, actions taken by us to restore compliance with listing requirements may not allow our securities to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our securities, prevent such securities from dropping below any minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with the NYSE listing requirements.

The delisting of our Ordinary Shares from the NYSE will likely make it more difficult for us to raise capital on favorable terms in the future. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our securities and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our securities when you wish to do so.

The JOBS Act permits “emerging growth companies” like us to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies makes Allego Ordinary Shares less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare performance with other public companies.

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, we take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including the exemption from the auditor attestation requirements with respect to internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result, our shareholders may not have access to certain information they deem important. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (a) the last day of the fiscal year (i) following the fifth anniversary of the effectiveness of the Form F-4, (ii) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion (as adjusted for inflation pursuant to SEC rules from time to time) or (iii) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Allego Ordinary Shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (b) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three year period.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the exemption from complying with new or revised accounting standards provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act as long as we are an emerging growth company. An emerging growth company can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our consolidated financial statements with another public

25

Table of Contents

company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

We cannot predict if investors will find our Allego Ordinary Shares less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our Allego Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our Allego Ordinary Shares and our stock price may be more volatile.

Madeleine owns a significant amount of Allego’s voting shares and its interests may conflict with those of other shareholders.

Madeleine owns approximately 74.0% of the outstanding Allego Ordinary Shares and has the right to direct the voting of an additional approximately 15.4% of the outstanding Allego Ordinary Shares as a result of the irrevocable voting power of attorney granted by E8 Investor to Madeleine. As a result, Madeleine will be able to control matters requiring shareholder or board approval, including the election of directors, approval of any potential acquisition of Allego, changes to Allego’s organizational documents and significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership and voting power makes it unlikely that any other holder or group of holders of Allego’s securities will be able to affect the way Allego is managed or the direction of its business. The interests of Madeleine with respect to matters potentially or actually involving or affecting Allego, such as future acquisitions, financings and other corporate opportunities and attempts to acquire Allego may conflict with the interests of other shareholders. In particular, Meridiam, which is the manager of the indirect parent entities of Madeleine, is in the business of making investments in companies and may acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with Allego. Meridiam and their respective affiliates may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to Allego’s business (and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to Allego) or may have an interest in Allego pursuing acquisitions, divestitures or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to Allego or other Allego shareholders.

Changes to tax laws or regulations expose us to tax uncertainties and could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.

Allego operates in various countries, and changes to tax laws or regulations in the jurisdictions in which Allego operates, or in the interpretation of such laws or regulations, could impact Allego.

In particular, as a result of different initiatives undertaken by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”), Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (the "GloBE Rules"), also known as Pillar Two, were published. The GloBE Rules aim to impose a global minimum tax of 15% on multinational enterprises with a revenue in excess of €750 million. The OECD Pillar Two agreement has been joined by over 140 countries, and many countries have initiated domestic legislative procedures to enact these global minimum tax rules, including the United Kingdom.

Furthermore, on December 15, 2022, the Council of the European Union formally adopted the EU Pillar Two Directive. The EU Pillar II Directive aims at consistently implementing among all 27 member states the GloBE Rules. EU Member States have transposed the EU Pillar Two Directive into their national laws and will have to apply the Pillar Two measures in respect of the fiscal years beginning on or after December 31, 2023. The Netherlands have transposed the EU Pillar Two Directive into its national legislation with effect from December 31, 2023, pursuant to the Dutch Minimum Tax Act 2024 (Wet minimumbelasting 2024).

Depending on each country’s final enactment, these rules may apply to and adversely affect Allego. The GloBE Rules will only become relevant when Allego reaches an annual turnover of at least €750 million. Allego does not yet meet this revenue threshold but should this threshold be reduced, or Allego’s revenue increases, then the application of Pillar Two could have a material adverse effect on Allego’s business, financial position and results of operations.

It may be difficult to enforce U.S. judgments against us.

We are organized and existing under the laws of the Netherlands. As such, under Dutch private international law, the rights and obligations of our shareholders vis-à-vis the Company originating from Dutch corporate law and our articles of association, as well as the civil liability of our officers (functionarissen) (including our directors and executive officers) are governed in certain respects by the laws of the Netherlands.

We are not a resident of the United States and our officers may also not all be residents of the United States. As a result, depending on the subject matter of the action brought against us and/or our officers, United States courts may not have jurisdiction. If a Dutch court has jurisdiction with respect to such action, that court will apply Dutch procedural law and Dutch private international law to determine the law applicable to that action. Depending on the subject matter of the relevant action, a competent Dutch court may apply another law than the laws of the United States.

26

Table of Contents

Also, service of process against non-residents of the United States can in principle (absent, for example, a valid choice of domicile) not be effected in the United States.

Furthermore, substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States. On the date of this Annual Report, (i) there is no treaty in force between the United States and the Netherlands for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters and (ii) both the Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements (2005) and the Hague Judgments Convention (2019) have entered into force for the Netherlands, but have not entered into force for the United States. Consequently, a judgment rendered by a court in the United States will not automatically be recognized and enforced by the competent Dutch courts. However, if a person has obtained a judgment rendered by a court in the United States that is enforceable under the laws of the United States and files a claim with the competent Dutch court, the Dutch court will in principle give binding effect to that United States judgment if (i) the jurisdiction of the United States court was based on a ground of jurisdiction that is generally acceptable according to international standards, (ii) the judgment by the United States court was rendered in legal proceedings that comply with the Dutch standards of proper administration of justice including sufficient safeguards (behoorlijke rechtspleging), (iii) binding effect of such United States judgment is not contrary to Dutch public order (openbare orde) and (iv) the judgment by the United States court is not incompatible with a decision rendered between the same parties by a Dutch court, or with a previous decision rendered between the same parties by a foreign court in a dispute that concerns the same subject and is based on the same cause, provided that the previous decision qualifies for recognition in the Netherlands. Even if such a United States judgment is given binding effect, a claim based thereon may, however, still be rejected if the United States judgment is not or no longer formally enforceable. Moreover, if the United States judgment is not final (for instance when appeal is possible or pending) a competent Dutch court may postpone recognition until the United States judgment will have become final, refuse recognition under the understanding that recognition can be asked again once the United States judgment will have become final, or impose as a condition for recognition that security is posted.

A competent Dutch court may deny the recognition and enforcement of punitive damages or other awards. Moreover, a competent Dutch court may reduce the amount of damages granted by a United States court and recognize damages only to the extent that they are necessary to compensate actual losses or damages. Finally, there may be specific other instances, including pursuant to anti-boycott rules and regulations, where Dutch law prohibits the recognition and enforcement of a United States judgment. Thus, United States investors may not be able, or experience difficulty, to enforce a judgment obtained in a United States court against us or our officers.

B.Business Overview

Allego operates one of the largest pan-European electric vehicle EV public charging networks and is a provider of high value-add EV charging services to third-party customers. Its large, vehicle-agnostic European public network offers easy access for all EV car, truck and bus drivers. As of December 31, 2023, Allego owns or operates more than 35,000 charging ports across 16,402 public and private locations, spanning activities in 16 countries, representing an increase of more than 2,000 charging ports since December 31, 2022. In addition, it provides a wide variety of EV-related services including site design and technical layout, authorization and billing, and operations and maintenance to more than 497 customers that include fleets and corporations, charging hosts, OEMs, and municipalities.

Founded in 2013, Allego is a leading EV charging company in Europe with its first fast charger becoming operational soon after founding and deploying Europe’s first ultra-fast charging station in 2017. From its inception, Allego has focused on EV charging solutions that can be accessed by the highest number of vehicles, regardless of vehicle type or OEM, thus allowing it to grow in a vehicle-agnostic manner. In 2018, Allego was acquired by Meridiam, a global long-term sustainable infrastructure developer and investor, which at the time provided necessary capital to enable the expansion of Allego’s existing global network, services and technologies. Allego’s charging network includes fast, ultra-fast, and slow charging equipment. Allego takes a two-pronged approach to delivering charging solutions, providing an owned and operated public charging network with 100% certified renewable energy in addition to charging solutions for business customers, including leading retail and auto brands.

Allego’s proprietary suite of software, developed to help identify and assess locations and provide uptime optimization with payment solutions, underpins Allego’s competitive advantage. AllamoTM allows Allego to select premium charging sites to add to its network by analyzing traffic statistics and proprietary databases to forecast EV charging demand using over 100 factors, including local EV density, driving behavior and EV technology development. These features make AllamoTM a predictive, cutting-edge tool to optimize those locations that are best positioned for higher utilization rates.

Despite the recent slowdown in EV sales in Europe, we believe the prospects for European EV market growth remain solid. Allego believes its business is set to expand quickly with the growth of transportation electrification and that its growth could potentially exceed the industry-wide anticipated four-times growth of the number of EVs from 2022 to 2026, according to a report entitled “Electric Vehicle Outlook 2023” by BloombergNEF (“BNEF Report”), a strategic research provider covering global commodity markets and disruptive technologies. The European EV market is larger and growing faster than the U.S. market, according to Allego’s estimates, due to European market attributes that generally favor fast charging, including more stringent regulatory regimes, high urbanization rates, a scarcity of in-home parking in dense cities and significant interurban traffic. The shift from traditional ICE cars to EVs has occurred more rapidly in Europe than expected, particularly in light of governmental regulations such as the total ban of ICE cars in large cities such as London as soon as 2030 and the restrictions on ICE sales in some countries, including the United Kingdom. The BNEF Report projects that the investment in EV charging in Europe for commercial and public charging will require more than $2.1 trillion between 2023 and 2030 and more than an additional $9.9 billion between 2030 and 2040.

The growth in the EV market in Europe has driven increased demand in public charging. Most of the cars in Europe can only be charged through public charging, as home garage access is often limited. Furthermore, fast and ultra-fast charging sites enable drivers to charge their EV’s in a reasonable time when compared to the time it takes for “fueling” ICE vehicles. EV drivers want to have the same level of service as old “fueling” methods, at a similar price point and Allego seeks to provide that experience.

Allego’s Business Model for EV Charging

Allego’s business model is based on the premise of providing easily accessible, highly reliable, hassle-free charging points to all types of EV users. Allego developed a unique, proprietary software platform that can manage any hardware chargers and charging sessions while enabling any MSP to use Allego’s network. Allego used this platform to create two complementary business segments to capitalize on the full breadth of EV charging opportunity: its owned fast and ultra-fast public charging network and high value-add third-party services.

Owned fast and ultra-fast charging network

Allego’s primary business focus going forward is in building, owning and operating ultra-fast and fast EV charging sites. Allego is the operator of one of the largest pan-European public EV charging networks. We use our proprietary AllamoTM software to identify premium charging sites and forecast demand using external traffic statistics. These sites generally are

28

Table of Contents

situated in high-density urban or suburban locations, and we believe that AllamoTM has been instrumental in securing a strong pipeline of premium sites. Allego’s proprietary software also supports compatibility and an optimized user experience for all EV drivers. The Allego EVCloudTM further provides software solutions for EV charging owners, including charging authorization and billing, smart charging and load balancing, analysis and customer support. This service offering is integral to fleet operators’ operations and enables Allego to provide insightful data and analytics to the customer, in addition to driving increased margins through third-party service contracts and operational and maintenance margin. Allego’s charging sites are vehicle-agnostic, and therefore can charge vehicles without limitations on OEM or user groups. Allego has one of the biggest ultra-fast charging networks in Europe, with 543 fast and 1542 ultra-fast charging ports as of December 31, 2023, and intends to accelerate its growth in this business segment.

Third-party services

Allego offers high value-add third-party services to customers and corporations, as a strategic focus for non-core technologies. This business segment is driven by attractive, high margin third-party service contracts for a variety of services including site design and technical layout, authorization and billing, and operations and maintenance. These offerings allow Allego to manage large and complex solutions and serve as a one-stop shop with its white label software suite. Allego designs the charging solution and offers full development from installation to maintenance and operations to the customers.

Allego’s two business lines complement each other: the service activities capitalize on Allego’s network and technologies while directly addressing and being responsive to its customers’ trends. Both business lines also allow Allego to focus on long-term and recurring revenue ranging from 5 years on average for our service activities to more than 15 years for the revenue from our charging stations. Allego invests significantly in its owned fast charging network and believes this segment will grow the fastest and represents the highest margins in the EV charging value chain.

By investing directly in its charging stations, Allego believes it can secure long-term revenue and special access to EV drivers. The services business segment can then trigger higher traffic as fleet companies or last mile companies require solutions to provide charging on the go.

Although Allego does not manufacture its own hardware, it has a significant base of diversified suppliers that provide Allego with the ability to demand certain specifications. In addition, because Allego is hardware agnostic, it is well-positioned to select optimal equipment. Allego also works directly with manufacturers for firmware and components. Allego is focused on developing the software that manages charging sessions and the payment systems with direct access to EV drivers.

Revenue Streams

Allego generates its revenues through the sale of charging sessions on its charging points to EV drivers and through the service and sales contracts Allego has with its B2B customers (corporate customers and municipalities). For more information, see also Note 5 (Segmentation – Revenue from major customers) and Note 5 (Segmentation – Revenue from external customers) to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Charging sessions

Allego sells EV drivers charging sessions at its public charging points. Drivers can pay for these sessions through direct payment, such as by contactless payment or credit card, or with tokens with MSPs with whom the EV driver has a contract. With respect to tokens, Allego charges the price of the sessions on a monthly basis to the MSP. Allego’s network can be accessed by more than 250 MSPs in Europe and through e-clearing net, which facilitates the interoperability of the public charging networks. Allego typically manages its charging sites by selecting the site through its AllamoTM software which then provides an optimal configuration of charger types based on the expected traffic. Allego then processes the building and grid connection permits. The technical layout of the charging stations is derived from Allego’s intellectual property which minimizes installation and maintenance costs while addressing capacity constraints of the site. Allego then selects chargers that are installed by Allego contractors, and when complete, the site is onboarded onto Allego’s EVCloudTM platform to enable access and charging sessions to the EV drivers with its SmoovTM app. With the SmoovTM app, all EV drivers can find Allego charging points, see their availability, start sessions, and determine the price and the cost of the charging sessions. As EV traffic builds, existing sites are upgraded with additional chargers to support increased throughput and charging sessions.

Sale of charging equipment

The Group enters into agreements with customers for the sale of charging equipment. These contracts are development contracts with customers under which the Group purchases and installs charging equipment at the relevant locations. The

29

Table of Contents

Group has determined that the sale and installation of the equipment constitute two distinct performance obligations since the integration of both performance obligations is limited, the installation is relatively straight-forward and these installation services can be provided by other suppliers as well.

Services

Allego provides charging solutions to its B2B customers on a range of services. In order to provide these services, Allego leverages the same knowledge and organization that it uses to develop its charging sites. Allego customers can be municipalities that decide to own their network, corporations that want to equip their facilities for commercial or public access, funds that want to invest in networks and that buy certain of Allego’s software, and fleet operators that want to use parts of Allego’s software platform to manage their chargers in the field.

•Revenue from installation services. Installation services are provided as part of the development contract described above under “Sale of charging equipment” as well as to corporate customers where charging equipment needs to be installed.

•Revenue from operation and maintenance of charging equipment. These services include the deployment of Allego’s cloud-based platform EVCloudTM to monitor chargers and charging sessions, collect, share and analyze charging data as well as the maintenance of the site. Generally, these contracts involve a one-off development cost but generate long-term revenues. Depending on the requirements, Allego can organize the supply of home charging and installation for specific customers as an operation and maintenance contract (e.g. large depots) and provide the information flow management that such solutions require. The range of solutions offered is standardized in terms of hardware and charging points managed by Allego’s platform in order to maximize synergies with its existing technologies.

The revenue streams described above complement each other: the service activities make the most of the development of Allego network and use the synergies of their technologies while being responsive to customer trends.

•Consulting services. Allego provides consulting services on research strategy and development of proprietary integrated tools taking the form of both software and/or hardware as a result of the MOMA acquisition.

Allego’s Market Strategy

Allego charging network

Allego operates its public charging networks through its local teams and subsidiaries in the countries in which it operates. The selection of a site is managed by a central network team, and the lease agreements for the sites are managed locally. Allego’s team efficiently contacts retailers, real estate companies, municipalities, and other entities with space or charging needs that Allego may provide.

Services activity

Allego’s approach to servicing customers focuses on two segments.

•Commercial. Many commercial businesses already own or lease parking spaces. Allego targets businesses that wish to electrify some or all of these parking spaces. This often comes in the form of a sale and service, but Allego may choose to invest in the network depending on the quality of the sites. If Allego decides to invest in a network, the charging points are integrated into the Allego charging network. Allego’s software platform offers the flexibility to allow businesses to charge specific prices to its customers while giving access to the public generally. Allego’s capacity to invest in sites enables it to secure the best locations and to foster long-term relationships with commercial customers. Accordingly, Allego is able to offer its commercial customers a dual-tracked approach, depending upon the needs of its customers, which offers a strong proposition for many commercial sites throughout Europe.

•Fleet. Allego’s fleet customers are organizations that operate vehicle fleets in the delivery and logistics, sales, service, motorpool, shared transit and ridesharing spaces. Allego has developed comprehensive solutions for its fleet customers by offering chargers and installations for special access to its network, specific prices, and charging solutions in their premises.

Allego’s charging network is a capital-intensive activity with attractive margins. Allego’s services offerings do not require substantial capital, but allow it to leverage synergies and create a network effect to increase traffic. Furthermore, there is

30

Table of Contents

organizational overlap between developing Allego’s charging network and bolstering its services activity which decreases the cost of operations.

Our Platform

The Allego go-to-market strategy uses its proprietary platform that facilitates the various steps of development and sales. Site selection, business plan computation, orders, installation, commissioning, maintenance, monitoring and payments are managed through the EVCloudTM and AllamoTM platforms which promote efficiency and continuously decrease operational costs. Allego continuously invests in the EVCloudTM platform for maintenance and to develop new functionalities. It is essential to have a scalable platform that can handle tens of thousands of transactions simultaneously and manage distributed assets on a large scale with thousands of sites remotely.

Energy Supply

Allego has extensive knowledge of the electricity supply in its markets. Its sourcing is from green renewable energy supported by green certificates. Allego can source its electricity on a long-term basis with renewable assets in order to hedge price increases and can pass-through increases in electricity prices in the charging sessions of the Allego network. In addition, Allego has developed its own capacity to operate directly on the electricity market as a wholesale buyer if needed in order to minimize the cost of its sourcing and to have long-term direct relationships with renewable assets such as wind or solar farms. Furthermore, Allego has developed smart charging capacity in order to cope with grid capacity constraints and avoid any overload of the grid. Allego is also developing solutions in order to offer ancillary services to grid operators through its charging points, making it one of the first EV company to propose such services. The anticipated costs associated with providing these ancillary services have been included in the budget for the development of Allego’s platform and do not represent additional costs. Management anticipates that these ancillary services will be offered to grid operators in the near future.

Allego’s energy supply is an element of its cost structure. Allego obtains electricity for its own charging stations through contracts with power suppliers or through direct sourcing in the market. Supply costs related to energy supply are based on short term, mid-term or long-term power futures prices on the various European power exchanges. In addition to these supply costs, there are grid connection costs (distribution of power, connection, and meters) which are paid by Allego as a consumer of power. These grid connection costs are regulated and paid to the Transmission System Operator and Distribution System Operator which are regulated entities.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, Allego had no major electricity vendor that represented 10% or more of total purchases.

Public Policy

Allego has been at the forefront of the development of EVs in Europe. Allego is one of the founders of Charge Up Europe, the EV charging business organization that promotes EV infrastructure in Europe. Allego promotes:

•Policies related to CO2 reduction

•Openness: standard and interoperability

•Free access to the grid in order to streamline grid connectivity

Growth Strategies

Allego considers itself a market leader in fast and ultra-fast charging in terms of sites in the major European markets including Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Portugal, Sweden and the United Kingdom, making it a leading EV public charging provider in Europe.

Allego’s growth strategy consists of:

•Increasing its leadership in fast and ultra-fast charging by investing in its owned public charging points network, which is the largest segment of Allego’s services.

•Developing its services business to complement its public charging points network. The objective is twofold, triggering more traffic on the Allego network and securing long-term relationships with B2B customers.

•Offering new functionalities to EV drivers that use the Allego network or its services with enhanced features of Allego’s software platform.

Government Regulation and Incentives

Regulations related to EV policy and building and grid connection permits differ at the European, national, and regional levels and, as a result, compliance with such varying regulations can cause installation delays or cost discrepancies between jurisdictions. In the jurisdictions in which Allego operates, two primary permits are required. One permit is required in order to connect to the distribution grid operator and the other permit is required in order to install charging stations.

Allego has experience in navigating this regulatory environment, which may result in increased efficiency and decreased operational costs due to faster installation and commissioning. However, obtaining such permits may be a time consuming process. The costs of the connection to the distribution grid operator vary by jurisdiction. Such costs are included in the building costs of the charging stations. Because such connections are physically performed by the distribution grid operator, Allego is dependent upon the availabilities of the distribution grid operators, which may lead to unexpected delays during construction.

Building Permits

Allego must comply with local regulations for each of its charging stations. We believe that Allego is currently in full compliance with applicable building permit regulations.

Electric Standard for Equipment and Installation

Allego believes that its hardware and equipment purchased from third-party vendors is compliant with all applicable regulations in each jurisdiction in which it operates. Electrical installations must comply with national regulations and must be carried out by trained contractors pursuant to specific authorizations and licenses, which are verified at the time such installments are performed.

Platform Standard

Allego’s software platform, EVCloudTM, uses open charge point interfaces and open charge point protocols so that its network and solutions respect the openness standard it promotes. In order to promote common technical frameworks and interoperability, Allego is a member of a number of technical associations, including Platform for Electro Mobility, ChargeUp Europe (founding member), EVroaming4Europe, Open Charge Alliance, Dutch Association Electrification of Transport, Avere Belgium, BDEW, AVERE France and Renewable Energy Association UK. By supporting these openness standards, Allego hopes to improve the EV user experience. Openness enables EVs to charge on any charger, reducing the risk that EV drivers will not be able to find a charge point, and avoids a costly duplication of charging infrastructure and increases utilization rates. Allego has pursued a “chargers’ manufacturer agnostic policy,” meaning its platform can on-board any type of charger from any manufacturer. As a result, Allego can benefit from innovation and reduced hardware procurement costs. In addition, EVCloudTM can thus accommodate several types of payment providers and Allego’s network serves all EV drivers.

Research and Development

Allego has invested a significant amount of time and expense into the research and development of its platform technologies. Allego’s ability to maintain its leadership position depends in part on its ongoing research and development activities. Allego’s technical teams are responsible for defining technical solutions for all of the services Allego provides, from hardware specifications to the technical layout for installation, to the development of its software platform.

Allego has a software development team that develops its platform technologies, as well as the different components that comprise such platforms. For specific development needs, Allego will sometimes use external parties that are closely supervised by Allego.

Allego’s research and development is principally conducted at its headquarters in Arnhem, Netherlands. As of December 31, 2023, Allego’s research and development team consisted of more than 8 full time employees.

Intellectual Property

Allego relies on a combination of trademark, copyright, unfair competition and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual restrictions, to establish, maintain and protect its proprietary rights. Allego’s success depends in part upon its ability to obtain and maintain proprietary protection over Allego’s products, services, solutions, technology and know-how, to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others, and to prevent others from infringing upon Allego’s proprietary rights. Allego’s key trademarks are Allego, SmoovTM, EVCloudTM, and AllamoTM.

32

Table of Contents

Suppliers and Service Providers

Allego relies on third-party vendors for design, manufacturing and testing of EV charging equipment. Currently, equipment is unique to each supplier with respect to components, firmware, after-market maintenance and warranty services. Equipment and services are sourced from different vendors for each category of charging solutions: AC (slow charging), DC (fast charging) and HPC (ultra-fast charging). For the year ended December 31, 2023, Allego had one major equipment vendor that represented approximately 17% of total purchases.

Allego has invested in its own specifications for its charging stations and maintains long-term relationships with suppliers and service providers. Allego designs the layout and certain specifications of its charging stations in-house and procures these charging stations from an assortment of hardware manufacturers. Allego does not typically install the charging stations but instead manages the installation process. The installations are typically performed by electrical contractors. Allego has established relationships with multiple EV charging manufacturers. Further, Allego has formed relationships with construction and maintenance companies that have significant experience building and maintaining EV charging sites.

Competition

In the charging network space, Allego generally competes with more localized providers of EV charging station networks for charging sessions to the EV drivers. Some networks are owned by utilities providers to extend their supply business, or oil and gas companies in order to complement their fueling stations. There are currently few pan-European pure players that are vehicle-agnostic such as Allego and those that do exist have a smaller reach.

In the services space, Allego competes with a variety of different companies depending upon the services provided. As Allego provides comprehensive solutions to its customers, generally its competitors are those that can offer both hardware equipment and management solutions. With the development of EV charging, some potential customers will try to split tenders by separating the supply of hardware equipment, operation and maintenance. In this case, these tenders are less desirable for Allego as they only offer part of the value chain of the operations within its platform. In the long run, however, we do not believe this trend will continue because it can lead in many cases to poor performance and low availability of charging points, which trigger many issues for EV drivers and cause higher costs. Integrating different price schemes, ease of use, seamless software performance, scalability and scale of operation are extremely difficult to achieve with different suppliers. With the maturing of the EV business, we believe that seamless end-to-end solutions are better provided by a single integrated offering.

Facilities

Allego’s headquarters is located in Arnhem, Netherlands where it currently leases approximately 3,350 square meters of office space under a lease that expires in March 2035. This current primary space is sufficient to meet Allego’s needs for the foreseeable future. Allego also maintains rented facilities in Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Austria, France and Denmark; and sales offices in England and Poland. See also Note 17 (Leases) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Employees

Allego strives to offer competitive employee compensation and benefits in order to attract and retain a skilled and diverse work force. As of December 31, 2023, Allego had 243 employees, 190 of whom were regular full-time and 52 of whom were engaged on a part-time basis. All of Allego’s employees are located in Europe, with the majority in the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Allego has a works council as required by law in the Netherlands and Allego believes it maintains good relations with its employees.

Legal Proceedings

Allego is not party to any material legal proceedings. From time to time, Allego may be involved in legal proceedings or subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. Regardless of the outcome, such proceedings or claims can have an adverse impact on Allego because of legal defense and settlement costs, diversion of resources and other factors, and there can be no assurances that favorable outcomes will be obtained.

A.Operating Results

Overview

Founded in 2013, Allego is a leading EV charging company in Europe and has deployed, as of December 31, 2023, over 35,000 charging ports across 16,402 public and private locations, spanning activities in 16 European countries, representing an increase of more than 2,000 charging ports since December 31, 2022.

34

Table of Contents

Allego continues to benefit from a European EV market that, according to Allego’s estimates, is nearly twice the size of the United States’ EV market, and Allego estimates that the European EV market will have a 35% CAGR from 2023 to 2027. Based on this projection, the number of EVs in Europe is expected to grow to nearly 22 million by 2026, as compared to 7 million today. The combination of a high urbanization rate and a scarcity of in-home parking means European EV drivers require fast, public EV charging locations that provide reliable and convenient charging. As part of Allego’s expansion plans, Allego will focus on fast and ultra-fast charging locations, which maximize utilization rates, carry higher gross margins and are preferred by EV drivers and fleets operators.

Additionally, stringent European CO2 regulations for ICE and highly favorable incentives for electric vehicle purchases are expected to continue to drive adoption rates of EV over ICE vehicles. With a first mover advantage, a robust pipeline of over 1,525 premium sites to be equipped with fast and ultra-fast chargers, committed by legally binding agreements, and an additional pipeline of more than 1,000 sites being currently negotiated, Allego believes it is well-positioned to execute its growth objectives.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

Allego believes its performance and future success depend on several factors that present significant opportunities for it but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section titled “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors” of this Annual Report.

Growth of EV adoption

Allego’s revenue growth is directly tied to the adoption and continued acceptance and usage of passengers and commercial full battery EVs, which it believes drives the demand for charging infrastructure and charging services. Even though the EV market has grown rapidly in recent years, future growth is not guaranteed. Factors affecting the adoption of EVs include but are not limited to: perceptions about EV features, quality, safety, performance, diverse offers from OEMs and price; perceptions about the limited range over which EVs may be driven on a single battery charge; availability of services for EVs; consumers’ perception about the convenience, speed and cost of EV charging; volatility in the price of gasoline and diesel; availability, cost and desirability of other alternative fuel vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. In addition, macroeconomic factors could impact demand for EVs, particularly since EVs can be more expensive than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles as a new technology. The uncertainty of the current geopolitical situation in Europe, including the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and more recently the conflict between Israel and Hamas, and the volatility in oil supply could drive this demand further. The current macroeconomic situation could also impact the supply of EVs given the sharp increase of required commodities in EV battery manufacturing such as copper and nickel. These factors may increase prices for EV cars more compared to traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. If the market for EVs does not develop as expected or if there is any slowdown or delay in overall EV adoption rates, Allego’s ability to increase revenue and grow its business may be impacted.

EV driver’s usage patterns

Allego’s revenues are subject to the driving and charging behaviors of EV users. The EV charging market is still developing and current behavioral patterns may not be representative of future behaviors. Key behavioral shifts may include but are not limited to: annual vehicle miles traveled, preferences for urban, suburban or exurban locations, preferences for public or private fast charging, preferences for home or workplace charging, demand from rideshare or urban delivery services, and the emergence of autonomous vehicles, micro mobility and mobility as-a-service platforms requiring EV charging services.

Competition

The EV charging market has become significantly more competitive in recent years. The principal factors on which industry participants compete include charger count, locations and accessibility; location visibility, including on digital platforms; charger connectivity to EVs and ability to charge all standards; speed of charging relative to expected vehicle dwell times at the location; network reliability, scale and local density; software-enabled services offering and overall customer experience; operator brand, track record and reputation; and pricing. Existing competitors may expand their product offerings and sales strategies and new competitors can enter the market at least locally. Allego intends to maintain its market share over time relative to the overall growth of EV adoption. If Allego’s market share decreases due to increased competition, its revenue and ability to generate profits in the future may be impacted.

Technology risks

The EV charging market is a fast-developing market that is susceptible to technology changes with changing technology from OEMs. Allego relies on numerous internally developed software technologies (EV CloudTM, SmoovTM and AllamoTM) to operate its network and generate earnings. The ability of Allego to continue to integrate its technology stack with technological advances in the wider EV ecosystem including EV model characteristics, charging standards, charging hardware, software and battery chemistries will determine Allego’s sustained competitiveness in offering charging services. There is a risk that some or all of the components of the EV technology ecosystem become obsolete and Allego will be required to make significant investment to continue effective business operations. Allego’s management believes their business model is well-positioned to enable Allego to effectively operate and allow the business to retain its leading market position regardless of long-term technological shifts.

Supply risks

Macro-economic factors regarding the supply side of EV charging equipment or components could negatively influence revenues of Allego. The fast-growing demand in EV driving places an equally high demand on the supply side, which may cause bottlenecks. If Allego experiences problems to meet the increasing demands of charging equipment due to these supply bottlenecks its revenue growth could be negatively impacted with delays of operations.

Energy cost

The results for the year ended December 31, 2022 were heavily influenced by the increase in energy costs in the first half of 2022. In response, Allego increased charging prices during the second half of 2022 and entered into power purchase agreements ("PPAs") to mitigate the future negative impact of increased energy costs. During 2023, Allego entered into more PPAs. This strategy allows the Group to benefit from the secured energy sourced from renewable PPAs in main markets and to minimize the impact of energy price volatility on the cost base. Overall, the average cost of energy per kWh during the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by 26% compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.

Key Performance Indicators

Allego regularly reviews a number of metrics to evaluate its business, measure its progress and make strategic decisions. EBITDA, Operational EBITDA, gross profit excluding depreciation and amortization, and free cash flow, which are non-IFRS measures, are currently utilized by management and may be used by our investors and competitors to assess performance. See the section entitled “—Non-IFRS Financial Measures.”

Management also reviews utilization rates (for the ultra-fast chargers), which are defined as the number of charging sessions per charger per day divided by a maximum number of charging sessions per charger per day of 50. Allego uses utilization rates to track profitability of the applicable charge point, to make comparisons to its business plan, and also to evaluate when it may want to consider adding charge poles to a given site to avoid increased wait times. It is computed on ultra-fast chargers because it is the main focus of Allego's own network development since 2022. Gathering information on utilization rates may also enable Allego to improve its forecasting abilities in the future.

Allego believes these measures assist its investors in gaining a meaningful understanding of its performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations or definitions, Allego’s presentation of these key performance indicators, including non-IFRS measures, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Utilization Rate

The following table represents the utilization rate for ultra-fast chargers of Allego’s charging network for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021.

	For the year ended December 31,
	2023		2022		2021
Utilization rate ultra-fast chargers1	13.05	%	10.40	%	5.90	%

1 In prior periods, Allego disclosed the overall utilization rate (which includes slow, fast and ultra-fast chargers). Since 2022, management focuses on the utilization rates for ultra-fast chargers in line with Allego's business strategy. Therefore management considers it to be more relevant to disclose the utilization rate for ultra-fast chargers as of December 31, 2023 and the comparative periods presented.

36

Table of Contents

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the utilization rate for ultra-fast chargers increased as compared to the same period ended December 31, 2022, due to an increase in the number of ultra-fast charging ports as well as an increase in the number of charging sessions.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

Allego’s revenues are generated across various revenue streams. The majority of Allego’s revenue is generated from charging sessions on its charging points and the sale and installation of charging equipment. Charging sessions revenue include the revenues related to charging sessions at charging equipment owned by Allego. Allego also supplies electricity to owners and drivers of electric vehicles, which use a charge card issued by an MSP, credit card, or direct payment through SmoovTM to pay for these services. Agreements related to the sale and installation of charging equipment are arranged via a development contract under which Allego purchases and installs charging equipment at the relevant location.

In addition, Allego generates revenues from operation and maintenance of charging equipment, as well as from consulting services.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales represents the electricity cost for the charging revenues which is billed to Allego by utility companies or directly by the markets and renewable assets connected to Allego balancing perimeters. Cost of sales related to development contracts consist of the cost of charging equipment and the third-party service cost for the installation services including the establishment of the grid connection. Cost of sales related to the operations and maintenance contracts mainly consists of the third-party service cost. Cost of sales also includes charging points depreciation, impairment and reversal of impairment, land permit depreciation, and EV-Cloud platform amortization.

Gross profit and gross margin

Gross profit is revenue less cost of sales. Gross margin is gross profit (loss) as a percentage of revenue.

Other income/(expenses)

Other income/(expenses) consists of government grants, income from the sale of CO2 tickets issued by government (linked to CO2 emission offsets, for example hernieuwbare brandstofeenheden in the Netherlands ("HBE certificates"), the net gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment, sublease rental income, fair value gains/(losses) on derivatives (power purchase agreements), fair value gains/(losses) on derivatives (purchase options), fair value gains/(losses) on preference shares derivatives, net gain or loss on sale of preference share derivatives and other items. Government grants are related to the development of the EV charging infrastructure networks in the EU and represent the reimbursement of incurred expenses. HBE certificates are issued by a Dutch government agency and are part of a program to stimulate the use of energy efficient and clean transportation. In Germany and in France, a similar scheme is in place. Allego is periodically granted a certificate based on the number of kWh of green energy that has been sold to customers. Allego sells such certificates to companies that are required to offset their use of non-green energy through a brokerage. Other items primarily include reimbursements that the Group has received from one of its suppliers for chargers.

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses relate to Allego’s sales function and mainly comprise employee benefits, amortization of customer relationships, depreciation charges, marketing and communication costs, housing and facility costs, travelling costs and other selling and distribution expenses.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses relate to Allego’s support functions and mainly comprise employee benefits, depreciation and amortization charges, IT costs, housing and facility costs, travelling costs, fees incurred from third parties, share-based payment expenses, and other general and administrative expenses.

Table of Contents

Operating loss

Operating loss consists of Allego’s gross profit plus other income/(expenses), less selling and distribution expenses and general and administrative expenses.

Finance income/(costs)

Finance income/(costs) primarily consist of interest expenses, exchange differences, loss on debt modifications and extinguishments, fair value gains and losses on derivatives, and fair value gains and losses on warrant liabilities.

Income tax

Income tax represents the expected tax payable or recoverable on the taxable profit or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted for the period.

Loss for the year

Loss for the year consists of Allego’s operating loss plus its finance income/(costs) less income tax.

Total charging revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022	65.3
Increase related to increase in energy sold	21.9
Increase related to increase of charging prices	16.1
Total charging revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023	103.3

Charging sessions revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased by €38.0 million, or 58%, to €103.3 million compared to €65.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, charging revenue increased by €21.9 million year-over-year as a result of an increase in energy sold. This was driven by charging sessions at both new and existing chargers. The total energy sold increased by 33%, from 155 GWh for the year ended December 31, 2022 to 206 GWh for the year ended December 31, 2023, due to an increase in EV usage from a growing number of new cars with extended battery capacity being sold during the year, and an increased installed base of charging ports. As at December 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022, the Company had a 106% increase in number of owned ultra-fast charging ports. The increase in energy sold was additionally driven by an increase of 19% in the number of charging sessions and a 12% increase in the utilization of the chargers year-over-year.

Finally, an increase of €16.1 million in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, was due to an increase in average charging price per kWh of 18% year-over-year. The average charging price per kWh increased from €0.4 in 2022 to €0.5 in 2023, mainly driven by higher charging tariffs on ultra-fast and fast chargers compared to slow chargers.

As at December 31, 2023, Allego owned and operated charging stations predominantly in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany.

Service revenue

(in € million)	2023

Decrease in installation services	(8.2)
Increase in operation and maintenance of charging equipment	2.2
Increase in consulting services	3.0
Total service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023	42.2

Overall service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by €26.3 million, or 38%, to €42.2 million compared to €68.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Service revenue from the sale of charging equipment decreased by €23.3 million, or 69%, to €10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to €33.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Service revenue from installation services decreased by €8.2 million, or 29%, to €20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to €28.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Service revenue from operation and maintenance of charging equipment increased by €2.2 million, or 69%, to €5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to €3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Revenue from consulting services increased by €3.0 million or 97%, to €6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to €3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The decrease in service revenue from the sale of charging equipment and installation services for the year ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to an anticipated decrease in revenues from the project with EV Cars (formerly project Carrefour). As the majority of the project was developed last year, the project slowed down compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, which resulted in a significant decrease of €39.0 million. This was partially compensated by an increase in service revenue from the sale of charging equipment to Mercedes Benz of €8.7 million. The acquisition of Mega-E in March 2022 has also contributed to the decrease in service revenue by €1.7 million in 2023 as Mega-E is consolidated by the Group since April 2022. Moreover, there was a decrease in service revenue on other projects, such as LeasePlan (a decrease of €1.7 million) and Nissan (a decrease of €0.3 million). This was offset by an increase in service revenue of €1.9 million arising from a collaboration with the Dutch National Post service and an increase of other projects for €0.6 million.

39

Table of Contents

The increase in service revenue from operation and maintenance of charging equipment was mainly driven by the roll out of the EV Cars project for €2.6 million, offset by the decrease of service revenue on other projects for €0.4 million.

The increase in revenue from consulting services of €3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 was driven by the recognition of twelve months revenue in 2023 as opposed to approximately seven months in 2022 in the Group's consolidated statement of profit or loss due to the acquisition of Modélisation, Mesures et Applications S.A. ("MOMA") being finalized at the beginning of June 2022.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by €224.4 million, or 69%, to €99.0 million compared to €323.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The change in general and administrative expenses is due to the following factors:

(in € million)	2023
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022	(323.4)
Decrease in employee benefit expenses	22.2
Decrease in legal, accounting and consulting fees	41.0
Decrease in share-based payment expenses - SPAC	158.7
Increase in depreciation and amortization expenses	(0.5)
Increase in IT costs	(0.7)
Decrease in insurance costs	2.9
Increase in other costs	0.8
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023	(99.0)

The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 is primarily due to share-based payment expenses incurred in the year ended December 31, 2022 in relation to the Business Combination of €158.7 million that were not incurred during the year December 31, 2023. These expenses represent costs of service related to the stock exchange listing for Allego's ordinary shares, immediately following the Business Combination. In addition, there was a substantial decrease in legal, accounting and consulting fees (2023: €32.9 million, 2022: €73.9 million), as well as a decrease in employee benefit expenses (2023: €42.8 million, 2022: €65.1 million). This is mainly the result of a reduction in share-based payment expenses following the completion of the first share-based payment arrangement with E8 Partenaires, a French société par actions simplifée ("E8 Investor") in connection with the completion of the Business Combination (2023: €10.1 million, 2022: €85.0 million). In addition, there was a decrease of share-based payment

41

Table of Contents

expenses related to the Management Incentive Plan (2023: €6.2 million, 2022: €14.4 million). However, this was partially offset by share-based payment expenses incurred in relation to the Long-term Incentive Plan (2023: €4.8 million, 2022: € nil). The share-based payments items described above are all non-cash movements.

Operating Loss

Operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by €243.0 million, or 77%, to €72.0 million compared to €315.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decreased operating loss is mostly due to the increase in gross profit and lower share-based payment expenses, partially offset by other expenses compared to other income in the previous period.

Finance income/(costs)

Decrease in other finance income and costs	1.2
Finance income/(costs) for the year ended December 31, 2023	(37.8)

Finance income/(costs) for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by €48.1 million, or 467%, to €37.8 million costs compared to €10.3 million income for the year ended December 31, 2022. The change in finance income/(costs) is due to fair value movements on derivatives and warrant liabilities, as well as increased interest expenses on the renewed facility.

Loss before income tax

Loss before income tax for the year ended December 31, 2023 decreased by €194.9 million, or 64%, to €109.8 million compared to €304.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in gross profit and reduction in general and other administrative expenses have been partially offset by increased finance costs and increased other expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in share-based payments subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination and the decreased share-based payment expenses related to the Management Incentive Plan, which were partially offset by the share-based payment expenses related to the Long-term Incentive Plan. Finance costs, as opposed to finance income in 2022, were generated due to fair value loss on derivatives and warrant liabilities, as well as the increased finance costs incurred as a result of the refinanced debt facility.

Income tax

(in € million)	2023
Income tax for the year ended December 31, 2022	(0.6)
Decrease in current tax expense	0.2
Reversal of temporary differences and tax losses	(5.3)

(in € million)	2022
Total service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021	60.2
Decrease related to sale of charging equipment	(3.7)
Increase in installation services	9.1
Decrease in operation and maintenance of charging equipment	(0.2)
Increase in consulting services	3.1
Total service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022	68.6

Overall service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased by €8.4 million, or 14%, to €68.6 million compared to €60.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Service revenue from the sale of charging equipment for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €3.7 million, or 10%, to €33.6 million compared to €37.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Service revenue from installation services increased by €9.1 million, or 47%, to €28.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from €19.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Service revenue from operation and maintenance of charging equipment was €3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to €3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of €0.2 million, or 5%.

Overall, the increase in service revenue was primarily due to a strong growth in demand for business-to-business charging solutions and the continued development with Carrefour for the development of over 200 charging locations across France, which resulted in an increase of service revenue of €28.0 million. This is offset by a decrease on the Mega-E project of €22.5 million due to the acquisition of Mega-E in March 2022, which is now consolidated by the Group.

During 2022, service revenue from consulting services of €3.1 million (2021: €nil) was generated as a result of the acquisition of MOMA in June 2022.

Cost of sales

(in € million)	2022
Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2021	69.3
Increase due to volume of energy sold	19.9
Increase due to price of energy	17.0
Increase due to depreciation and amortization	12.2
Increase due to development, sale, and installation of Carrefour chargers	19.6
Decrease due to Mega-E acquisition	(13.2)
Increase due to changes in inventory value	3.3
Decrease due to other projects	(1.4)
Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2022	126.7

Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased €57.4 million, or 83%, to €126.7 million compared to €69.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The increase in cost of sales was substantially driven by an increase in energy sold and an increase in energy prices throughout Europe. Year over year, the average cost of energy / kWh increased by 40% and average maintenance costs / kWh increased by 19%. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2022, maintenance costs increased by 123% due to increased installed base and energy sold. This is a result of Allego's continued expansion of its portfolio of chargers, with a focus on ultra-fast chargers (including through the acquisition of Mega-E), which require higher operation and maintenance costs.

Gross profit and gross margin

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €9.8 million, or 57%, to €7.2 million compared to €17.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased to 5% compared to 20% for the year ended December 31, 2021. This was driven primarily by an increase in energy prices throughout Europe during the year, without corresponding increases in prices charged to customers during the first half of 2022. As described above, revenue increased €16.5 million year-over-year as a result of rising electricity prices, compared to an increase in cost of sales of €17.0 million. In addition, there was an increase in inventory write-offs during 2022 of €3.3 million. The remaining decrease in margin was due to faster growth in lower-margin charging revenue compared to service revenue during the year.

Other income/(expenses)

Other income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €7.1 million, or 66%, to €3.7 million compared to €10.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in other income/(expenses) is due to the following factors:

(in € million)	2022
Other income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2021	10.9
Increase in fair value gain on purchase option derivatives	1.0
Increase in income generated from the sale of CO2 tickets	4.1

Other income/(expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2022	3.8

Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 amounted to €2.6 million, remaining relatively constant when compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 (€2.5 million).

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €5.9 million, or 2%, to €323.4 million compared to €329.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decreased general and administrative expenses is due to the following factors:

(in € million)	2022
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021	329.3
Decrease in employee benefit expenses	(39.9)
Decrease in legal, accounting and consulting fees	(135.1)
Increase in share-based payment expenses - SPAC	158.7
Increase in depreciation and amortization expenses	3.0
Increase in IT costs	1.7
Increase in insurance costs	6.8
Other	(1.1)
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022	323.4

The overall decrease in general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 is primarily driven by a decrease in legal, accounting and consulting fees incurred (2022: €73.9 million, 2021: €208.9 million) as well as a decrease in employee benefit expenses (2022: €65.1 million, 2021: €105.0 million). The decreases were a result of a reduction in share-based payment expenses following the termination of the First Special Fees Agreement in connection with the completion of the Business Combination in March 2022, whereas this agreement was in place for all of 2021. Share-based payment expenses amounted to €99.4 million in 2022 (2021: €291.8 million) of which €58.1 million (2021: €202.2 million) were recognized as legal, accounting and consulting fees and €41.2 million (2021: €89.6 million) were recognized as employee benefit expenses. The share-based payment expenses in 2022 related to the Second Special Fees Agreement and the Management Incentive Plan. This is offset by share-based payment expenses incurred in 2022 in relation to the

Business Combination of €158.7 million (2021: €nil) representing costs of service in respect of the stock exchange listing for Allego Ordinary Shares.

Operating Loss

Operating loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased by €11.1 million, or 4%, to €315.0 million compared to €303.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increased operating loss is mostly due to a decrease in gross profit and other income, offset by lower share-based payment expenses.

Finance income/(costs)

(in € million)	2022
Finance income/(costs) for the year ended December 31, 2021	(15.4)
Increase in finance costs on borrowings	(3.8)
Fair value gain on derivatives	4.9
Fair value gains on warrant liabilities	27.1
Other	(2.4)
Finance income/(costs) for the year ended December 31, 2022	10.3

Finance income/(costs) for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased by €25.7 million, or 167%, to €10.3 million in income compared to €15.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increased finance income is due to fair value gains generated by derivatives and warrant liabilities which are offset by increased interest expenses on senior debt as a result of the refinancing that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Loss before income tax

Loss before income tax for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €14.7 million, or 5%, to €304.7 million compared to €319.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in revenue and reduction in finance costs and general and other administrative expenses have been partially offset by increased cost of sales and lower other income. Finance income, as opposed to finance expense in 2021, was generated due to fair value gains on derivatives and warrant liabilities. General and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in share-based payments subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination.

Income tax

(in € million)	2022
Income tax for the year ended December 31, 2021	(0.4)
Additional current tax expense	(0.9)
Origination of temporary differences and tax losses	16.9
Derecognition of deferred tax assets	(16.3)
Income tax for the year ended December 31, 2022	(0.6)

For the year ended December 31, 2022, Allego recognized additional current tax expenses of €0.9 million mainly related to an additional tax expense for profitable countries of €0.3 million and the acquisition of MOMA €0.7 million. The decrease is further caused by the derecognition of deferred tax assets for €16.3 million and offset by the origination of temporary differences of €16.9 million. This resulted in an increase in income taxes of €0.2 million, or 81%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2021.

Loss for the year

Loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by €14.4 million, or 4%, to €305.3 million compared to €319.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in revenue and reduction in finance costs and general and other administrative expenses has been partially offset by increased cost of sales and lower other income. Finance income, as opposed to finance expense in 2021, was generated due to fair value gains on derivatives and warrant liabilities. General and administrative expenses decreased due to a decrease in share-based payments subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This Annual Report includes the following non-IFRS financial measures: “EBITDA”, “Operational EBITDA”, “gross profit excluding depreciation and amortization”, and “free cash flow”. Allego believes EBITDA, Operational EBITDA, gross profit excluding depreciation and amortization, and free cash flow are measures used internally to establish forecasts, budgets, and operational goals to manage and monitor its business. We present the non-IFRS measures because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance, and we believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies. Management believes that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including the non-IFRS measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. By providing the Non-IFRS Measures, together with reconciliations to IFRS, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives.

Allego defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization and impairments. Allego defines Operational EBITDA as EBITDA further adjusted for share-based payment expenses, transaction costs, certain bonus payments, fair value gain/(losses) on certain derivatives, reorganization and severance costs, and certain business optimization costs. Allego defines gross profit excluding depreciation and amortization as gross profit before depreciation and amortization expenses. Allego defines free cash flow as net cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures and adjusted for proceeds from/repayments of government grants.

EBITDA, Operational EBITDA, gross profit excluding depreciation and amortization, and free cash flow are not prepared in accordance with IFRS and may be different from non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies. These measures should not be considered as measures of financial performance under IFRS, and the items excluded from or included in these metrics are significant components in understanding and assessing Allego’s financial performance. These metrics should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. The following unaudited table presents the reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable

B.Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

The Group’s strategy requires significant capital expenditures and investments in building the Group’s organization aimed at increasing the scale of its operations. The Group incurred losses during the first years of its operations including during the year ended December 31, 2023, and expects to continue to incur losses in the next twelve months from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. This is typical in the industry, as builders and operators of EV charging sites often incur losses in the early years of operation as the network grows and consumers begin adopting EVs. Therefore, the Group relies heavily on funding from bank borrowings and equity issuance, During 2022, the Group entered into a new facility agreement with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, increasing the total available facility by €230.0 million to €400.0 million, to further support its growth. The Group’s strategy is based on further growth and will require additional significant funding from lenders or its existing or new shareholders.

Borrowings

On December 19, 2022, the Group entered into the renewed facility agreement with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, increasing the total available facility by €230.0 million to €400.0 million, to further support its growth. The renewed facility consists of:

48

Table of Contents

i.€170.0 million used to settle the old facility;

ii.up to €200.0 million to be used for financing and refinancing certain capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions (and for other permitted debt servicing uses); and

iii.up to €30.0 million to be used for issuance of guarantees and letters of credit (and when utilized by way of letters of credit, for general corporate purposes).

The renewed facility expires in December 2027 and bears interest at EURIBOR plus a margin. As of December 31, 2023, the Group has not drawn on €8.4 million of this facility and the unutilized amount from the guarantee facility is €17.5 million. The Company has not drawn any further amount from the renewed facility till the date of issuance of financial statements, however an additional letter of credit was issued on April 3, 2024 to one of the renewable electricity suppliers in relation to an existing power purchase agreement for a maximum original amount of €2.1 million.

Under the terms of the renewed facility, the Group is required to comply with financial covenants, including leverage ratio and interest cover ratio, at the consolidated level of Allego N.V. Historically, the Group met its covenants as per the old facility agreement. A covenant breach would negatively affect the Group’s financial position and cash flows. In the event of a covenant breach, the Group may within ten business days from the occurrence of a breach or the anticipated breach of the loan covenants remedy such default by providing evidence of receipt of new funding, sufficient to cure such breach (“equity cure right”). Such remediation is available for not more than two consecutive testing dates and four times over the duration of the renewed facility. In case the covenants breach is not cured, such a breach is considered a default and could lead to the cancellation of the total undrawn commitments and the loan to become immediately due and payable.

Even though the Group has complied with the covenants of the old facility and renewed facility throughout all reporting periods presented, the Group is also forecasted to potentially breach the interest cover ratio and leverage ratio covenants at December 31, 2024 and the Group is dependent on obtaining additional financing to execute on its business plan. The covenant ratios are increasing every testing date until June 30, 2027 in line with this business plan.

The compliance with covenants under the renewed facility agreement is tested every 6 months, with the testing period being the 12 months ending December 31 and June 30. The first testing date of the interest cover ratio was June 30, 2023, and as at that date, the Group complied with these covenants. The Group has also complied with these covenants as at December 31, 2023. Further details around the loan covenants is included in Note 34 (Capital management) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The first testing date of the leverage ratio is June 30, 2024.

Please refer to Note 25 (Borrowings) and Note 34 (Capital management) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for more information.

In parallel to the renewed facility, the Group entered into interest rate cap derivatives to help offset the interest rate risk on at least 65%. The Group has two interest rate caps in place with a notional of €240.5 million (December 31, 2022: two interest rate caps with a notional of €181.5 million) which matures in December 2027. As at December 31, 2023, the interest rate cap cover approximately 67% (December 31, 2022: 65%) of the variable loan outstanding The strike price changes over time and ranges between 1.50% and 3.43%.

Interest rate risks on the remaining portion of the outstanding loan amounts, including the impact that higher interest rates would have on the Company’s going concern analysis, was included in the cash flow forecasts described below. Details about the Group’s interest rate caps are included in Note 19 (Other financial assets) and Note 33 (Financial risk management) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Pledged balances

The renewed facility is secured by pledges on the bank accounts (presented as part of cash and cash equivalents and non-current other financial assets), pledges on trade and other receivables and pledges on the shares of its main subsidiaries in the capital of Allego Holding B.V., Allego B.V., Allego GmbH and Allego France SAS held by the Company.

The carrying amount of assets pledged as security for the renewed facilities as of December 31, 2023 is €58.3 million. Refer to Note 25 (Borrowings) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for more information.

Going concern

As an early-stage company, we maintain a strong focus on liquidity and define our liquidity risk tolerance based on uses and sources to maintain a sufficient liquidity position to meet our obligations under both normal and stressed conditions.

49

Table of Contents

Management prepares detailed liquidity forecasts and monitors cash and liquidity forecasts on a continuous basis. In assessing the going concern basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements, management estimated the expected cash flows until December 31, 2025, incorporating current cash levels, revenue projections, detailed capital expenditures, operating expense budgets, interest payment obligations, and working capital projections, as well as compliance with covenants, potential future equity raises, and availability of other financial funding from banks. The Group invests in new stations, chargers, grid connections, and potential business acquisitions only if the Group has secured financing for such investments. These forecasts reflect potential scenarios and management plans and are dependent on securing significant contracts and related revenues.

Management has performed an analysis of its liquidity levels until December 31, 2025 and prepared a scenario that assumes capital expenditure levels based on the currently available funds, remaining undrawn portion of the renewed facility, as well as service revenue inflows derived from only existing contracts.

Under this scenario, the Group is forecasted to have sufficient available cash and liquidity but has limited headroom. The key assumptions in the analysis are related to the utilization rates of charging stations and the sales prices. These assumptions are sensitive and any adverse change in these assumptions will result in insufficient available cash and liquidity. Under the scenario the Group is also forecasted to potentially breach the interest cover ratio and leverage ratio covenants at December 31, 2024.

In the event the Group fails to meet its loan covenants, or the Group’s forecasts prove to be inaccurate, the Group may be required to obtain additional financing, a waiver for its covenants and/or renegotiation with its current lender. The Group may not be able to negotiate on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Group is unable to raise additional capital when desired, its business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected and may no longer be able to operate as a going concern.

The Company is exploring various options to mitigate the uncertainties related to the funding to be obtained and the potential breach of its covenants by:

•obtaining additional external and shareholder funding.

•delaying capital expenditures.

•negotiating with their current lenders to obtain a covenant waiver.

•funding operations through the special purpose vehicles (i.e. asset companies) with external parties.

•securing non-committed pipeline of sales and services projects.

Please note that securing non-committed pipeline of sales and service projects does not guarantee immediate mitigation of any potential breach of financial covenants. The effectiveness of this measure is contingent upon the Company's success in generating adequate operational EBITDA, which is unpredictable and depends on the timings and the satisfaction of various performance obligations.

As described above, long-term investments, development activities, and operations until December 31, 2025 will require additional financing to be obtained. Currently, no commitments exist for further growth investments. The Group will be required to seek additional financing to continue to execute its growth strategy and business plan in the long-term. The realization of such financing is inherently uncertain. Securing additional funding — by raising additional equity or debt financing — is important for the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in the long-term. However, there is no assurance that the Group will be able to raise additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

As a result of management’s forecast and the potential breach of its covenants combined with the need for additional funding, there is a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt upon the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore, whether the Group will realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the ordinary course of business at the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

Although the expectation for the coming year is that the Company will continue to have net losses and make additional investments, its cash flows from operations and renewed credit facility is expected to be sufficient until December 31, 2025 based on the Company’s forecast and the remediation options available. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Group operates on a going concern basis.

The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that would result if the Group and Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

As at December 31, 2023, expenditures for chargers and charging infrastructure contracted for, but not recognized as liabilities were €4.9 million. The Group uses these assets either as own chargers (property, plant and equipment) or as charging equipment to fulfill its obligations under development contracts entered into with its customers (inventory).

The decrease in net operating assets was mainly due to an increase of €28.6 million in trade and other payables and contract liabilities. This was partially offset by an increase of €21.3 million in trade and other receivables, contract assets and prepayments, an increase in inventory and other financial assets of €6.9 million and an decrease in provisions of €0.2 million.

Cash flows used in investing activities

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was €68.9 million compared to €95.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2022. The year-over-year movement was primarily due to an increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment of €43.5 million. This was offset by a decrease in cash used for acquisitions of €68.4 million, a decrease in proceeds from government grants of €0.4 million and a decrease in the purchases of intangible assets of €1.6 million.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was €95.0 million compared to €15.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The year-over-year movement was primarily due to an increase in acquisition expenses of €68.4 million and increased purchases of property, plant and equipment of €16.8 million. This was partially offset by decreased proceeds from government grants of €1.2 million, a decrease in the purchases of intangible assets of €5.2 million and a decrease in the payment of purchase option premiums of €1.5 million.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 was €75.6 million compared to cash from financing activities of €261.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2022. The year-over-year movement was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from issuing equity instruments of €142.8 million, a decrease in proceeds from borrowings of €76.8 million, a decrease in repayment of borrowings of €23.4 million and a decrease in the payment of transaction costs related to borrowings of €9.2 million,

Cash from financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was €261.7 million compared to cash from financing activities of €41.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2021. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to proceeds from issuing equity instruments of €142.8 million, and an increase in proceeds from borrowings of €114.9 million. This was partially offset by an increase in the payment of transaction costs of €11.5 million, an increase in repayment of borrowings of €23.4 million, and an increase in the payment of the principal portion of lease liabilities of €2.0 million.

E.Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of Allego’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and equity and disclosures with respect to contingent liabilities and assets at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain of Allego’s accounting

52

Table of Contents

policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. These judgments are based on Allego’s historical experience, terms of its existing contracts, evaluation of trends in the industry, information provided by its clients and information available from outside sources, as appropriate. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an ongoing basis, Allego evaluates its estimates including those related to models and inputs for fair valuation of financial assets and liabilities, impairment of non-financial assets, share-based compensation and the recognition of deferred tax assets. Allego’s actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material. Revisions to significant judgments and accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which those are revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

See Note 2 (Material accounting policies) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for additional description of the material accounting policies that have been followed and Note 3 (Significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report for additional description of significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments made in preparing Allego’s consolidated financial statements. The significant judgments and accounting estimates described below are those Allego considers to be the most critical to an understanding of its financial condition and results of operations and that require the most complex and subjective management judgment.

Valuation of investment in equity securities

Allego has an investment in equity securities which relates to an investment in Voltalis. The investment qualifies for the level 3 category in the fair value hierarchy as the securities are not traded in an active market and there is no observable market data. The fair value of these securities is determined using valuation techniques which use unobservable inputs that are significant to fair value. The investment in equity securities is presented within non-current other financial assets, and the fair value changes of this investment are recognized in the consolidated statement of other comprehensive income.

The investment in equity securities is valued using a discounted cash flow analysis which inputs include historical financial information of the underlying company, the earnings growth factor and a risk-adjusted discount rate. The significant unobservable input parameters that are considered sensitive and are used in the fair value measurement of the investments in equity securities are the earnings growth factor and the risk-adjusted discount rate. While being management's best estimates, the significant unobservable inputs involve estimation uncertainty and change in any of these inputs might impact the fair value of the investment in equity securities significantly.

The assumptions and model used for estimating the fair value of the investment in equity securities are disclosed in Note 32 (Fair value measurement) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Valuation of share-based payments under the Second Special Fees Agreement

Allego uses different valuation models to assess the fair values of share-based payment transactions, depending on the terms and conditions of the respective grants and agreements. Managements determines the most appropriate inputs to the valuation models and makes assumptions about them, which might in some cases be subjective and involve estimation uncertainties.

A first and second share-based payment arrangement were provided to E8 Investor via the First Special Fees Agreement and Second Special Fees Agreement to compensate for its continuous strategic and operational advice, as well as support with regards to Allego’s fundraising efforts. The First Special Fees Agreement was terminated in connection with the Business Combination in 2022 and only the Second Special Fees Agreement remains in place during 2023. For more information, see “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions”, Note 11.1 (First Special Fees Agreement) and 11.2 (Second Special Fees Agreement) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

The Second Special Fees Agreement was initially entered into by Madeleine, and novated to the Company on April 20, 2022. The Second Special Fees Agreement is in scope of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment and accounted for as such in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

The fees payable under the Second Special Fees Agreement depend on the future value of the Allego Group at the time of a future Equity Injection Event. Since there is no market price for the services provided by E8 Investor, to measure the fair value of the Second Special Fees Agreement, management applies a weighted average valuation model, which simulates the value based on various amounts and expected dates of Equity Injection events, and taking into account the likelihood of Equity Injections to happen, as well as the expected price per share upon each Equity Injection. Share-based payment expenses are recognized over the expected service period, being the period till each of the expected Equity Injection Events

date. While being management's best estimates, the underlying assumptions involve estimation uncertainty and change in any of these assumptions might impact the fair value of share-based payment arrangements significantly.

The assumptions and model used for estimating the fair value for share-based payment transactions under the Second Special Fees Agreement are disclosed in Note 11.2 (Second Special Fees Agreement) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Valuation of derivative liabilities relating to power purchase agreements (PPAs)

Allego signed multiple Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for the purchase of electricity from renewable sources in the Netherlands and Germany.

For certain PPAs entered into during the year ended December 31, 2023, the renewable electricity volumes supplied by the PPAs in the Netherlands in excess of the expected usage requirements of Allego do not meet the “own use” exemption in IFRS 9, as such are accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value. Estimating fair value for derivative liabilities relating to PPAs requires the most appropriate valuation methodology and involves assumptions about the most significant unobservable inputs.

For the measurement of the fair value of these derivative liabilities at inception of the agreements (and subsequent measurement dates until the expiration of the agreements), the Group uses a discounted cash-flow model using contractual, company specific and market inputs. These include as key input the electricity forward prices, which cannot be forecasted using observable market data for the whole duration of the contract, as such increasing the estimation uncertainty.

Had the estimates of the electricity forward prices be significantly different, the derivative liabilities and corresponding fair value loss recognized in the consolidated financial statements would be materially impacted.

The assumptions and model used for estimating the fair value for derivative liabilities relating to PPAs are disclosed in Note 32 (Fair value measurement) of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with the preparation and audit of Allego’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 and 2021, material weaknesses were identified in its internal control over financial reporting. See the subsection entitled “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Allego has identified, and has previously identified, material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. If Allego is unable to remediate these material weaknesses, or if Allego identifies additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fails to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements of Allego consolidated financial statements or cause Allego to fail to meet its periodic reporting obligations, which may have an adverse effect on the share price” and “Item 15.Controls and Procedures”

Allego has continued to implement remediation plans and activities to address each of the material weaknesses, including, but not limited to, accounting policies and procedures, segregation of duties, manual journal entries, and adequately documenting of controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls.

JOBS Act

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law in the United States. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. Allego qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act and is allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. As an “emerging growth company,” Allego is not required to, among other things, provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal control over financial reporting and comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and

the consolidated financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis). These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of a business combination or until we otherwise no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company.”

Management Incentive Plan

The Allego Board and the Compensation Committee adopted the management incentive plan ("MIP") on April 20, 2022. The MIP is designed to provide long-term incentives for key management employees to deliver long-term shareholder returns, while enabling it to attract, retain, incentivize and reward individuals who will contribute to its long-term success. The plan includes two types of granted options: the right to acquire a percentage of the Company's issued share capital immediately following the listing, subject to the expiry of a blocking period of 18 months, and the right to acquire a percentage of the Company's issued share capital immediately following the listing, subject to predefined performance conditions and the expiry of the blocking period. The granted options carry no dividend or voting rights. As of December 31, 2023, there was one participant in the MIP.

As of December 31, 2023, all the MIP options granted had vested and are exercisable. No options expired and no options were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Allego Board and the Compensation Committee approved the general framework for the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") on the Closing Date. The purpose of the LTIP is to provide eligible directors and employees the opportunity to receive stock-based incentive awards for employee motivation and retention and to align the economic interests of such persons with those of Allego’s shareholders. The delivery of certain shares or other instruments under the LTIP to directors and key management are agreed and approved in certain Allego Board meetings. On December 20, 2022, the Allego Board approved a detailed plan for the LTIP for future years.

As it relates to the LTIP for Allego executive officers, performance options may be granted annually and would be exercisable after a contractual vesting period of two to three years. The amount of options issued under the LTIP are based on four equally-weighted criteria: revenue, operational EBITDA, renewable GWh delivered, and appreciation at the discretion of the Board. Targets are set annually.

During the year-ended December 31, 2023, LTIP Performance Options were granted subject to company performance in financial years 2022 and 2023 separately. As of December 31, 2023, LTIP Performance Options based on performance in financial year 2022 vested and became exercisable as a result of the modification for one of the executive officers, while other LTIP Performance Options were cancelled. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2023, Allego awarded LTIP Special Options to one of the executives as a replacement for the cancelled LTIP Performance Options, which vested immediately upon grant. None of these options expired or were exercised during the period.

RSUs were awarded in May 2023 to certain non-executive directors. Some of these RSUs were not subject to any vesting conditions and vested fully on the grant date. The rest of these RSUs have a vesting period of one year and will vest on May 23, 2024, subject to the continuous involvement within the board of directors until the vesting date. As of December 31, 2023, the vested RSUs awards to non-executive directors were issued.

For the avoidance of doubt, compensation received by an executive officer who is subject to the Allego N.V. Incentive-Based Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) shall be subject to such Clawback Policy in accordance with its terms.

C.Board Practices

Composition of the Board of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of the Allego Board. We currently have a classified board of directors, with three directors in Class I (Thomas Maier, Thierry Déau and Christian Vollmann) which will expire in 2026, two directors in Class II (Jane Garvey and Patrick Sullivan), which will expire in 2024, and three directors in Class III (Mathieu Bonnet, Julia Prescot and Ronald Stroman), which will expire in 2025. Additionally, Matthieu Muzumdar is currently serving as a temporary director, with his term expiring in 2024.

Foreign Private Issuer Status

Allego was formed under the laws of the Netherlands in 2021. The majority of Allego’s outstanding voting securities are directly owned of record by non-U.S. residents. In addition, U.S. residents do not comprise a majority of Allego’s executive officers or directors, and, following the consummation of the Business Combination Allego’s assets are located, and its business is principally administered, outside of the United States. As a result, Allego reports under the Exchange Act as a non-U.S. company with foreign private issuer status. Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, the determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal

quarter and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to Allego on June 30, 2024. For so long as Allego qualifies as a foreign private issuer, it will be exempt from certain provisions of the Exchange Act that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies, including:

•the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

•the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and imposing liability for insiders who profit from trades made within a short period of time;

•the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of an annual report on Form 10-K (although we will file annual reports on a corresponding form for foreign private issuers), quarterly reports on Form 10-Q containing unaudited financial and other specified information (although we will file semi- annual reports on a current reporting form for foreign private issuers), or current reports on Form 8-K, upon the occurrence of specified significant events;

•requirements to follow certain corporate governance practices, and may instead follow home country practices; and

•Regulation Fair Disclosure or Regulation FD, which regulates selective disclosure of material non-public information by issuers.

Accordingly, there may be less publicly available information concerning Allego’s business than there would be if it were a U.S. public company. Additionally, certain accommodations in the NYSE corporate governance standards allow foreign private issuers, such as Allego, to follow “home country” corporate governance practices in lieu of the otherwise applicable corporate governance standards. In addition, unlike the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE, our “home country” corporate governance practices do not require us to (i) have a board that is composed of a majority of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of the NYSE; (ii) have a compensation committee that is composed entirely of independent directors; and (iii) have a nominating and corporate governance committee that is composed entirely of independent directors. For as long as we qualify as a foreign private issuer, we may take advantage of these exemptions.

Controlled Company Exception

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE corporate governance standards. Under the NYSE rules, a controlled company is exempt from certain NYSE corporate governance requirements. Although we are a controlled company at this time we have chosen not to avail ourselves of the exemptions from certain NYSE governance requirements. If we do choose to avail ourselves of the exemptions in the future, shareholders will not have the same protections provided to shareholders of companies that are subject to all NYSE corporate governance requirements.

Board Committees

The Allego Board has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Strategy and Business Committee (amended versions adopted per December 20, 2023 to reflect the revised Dutch Corporate Governance Code).

E8 Arrangements

The agreement expires on the earlier of June 30, 2025, and the date on which Madeleine would no longer hold any equity security in Allego.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Closing, Allego, Sponsor, Madeleine, E8 Investor and certain other holders of Ordinary Shares (collectively, the “Reg Rights Holders”) entered into a Registration Rights Agreement on March 16, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, among other things, Allego agreed that, within 15 business days following the Closing, Allego will file this shelf registration statement to register the resale of certain securities held by the Reg Rights Holders (the “Registerable Securities”).

Indemnification Agreements

Allego has entered into indemnification agreements with its executive officers and directors. These agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted by Dutch law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors or executive officers, Allego has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy and is therefore unenforceable.

Under Dutch law, Allego’s authorized share capital is the maximum capital that Allego may issue without amending the Articles. An amendment of the Articles would require a resolution of General Meeting upon proposal by the Board.

The Articles provide that, for as long as any Ordinary Shares are admitted to trading on NYSE or on any other regulated stock exchange operating in the United States, the laws of the State of New York shall apply to the property law aspects of Ordinary Shares reflected in the register administered by Allego’s transfer agent, subject to certain overriding exceptions under Dutch law. Such resolution, as well as a resolution to revoke such designation, has been made public in accordance with applicable law and has been deposited at the offices of the Company and the Dutch trade register for inspection.

The following summarizes the material rights of holders of Ordinary Shares:

•each holder of Ordinary Shares is entitled to one vote per Ordinary Share on all matters to be voted on by shareholders generally, including the appointment of directors;

•there are no cumulative voting rights;

•the holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to dividends and other distributions as may be declared from time to time by Allego out of funds legally available for that purpose, if any;

•upon Allego’s liquidation and dissolution, the holders of Ordinary Shares will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of Allego’s assets remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all Allego’s liabilities; and

•the holders of Ordinary Shares have pre-emption rights in case of share issuances or the grant of rights to subscribe for shares, except if such rights are limited or excluded by the corporate body authorized to do so and except in such cases as provided by Dutch law and the Articles.

The Board keeps the shareholders’ register and records names and addresses of all holders of registered shares, showing the date on which the shares were acquired, the date of the acknowledgement by or notification of Allego as well as the amount paid on each share. The register also includes the names and addresses of those with a right of usufruct (vruchtgebruik) on registered shares belonging to another or a pledge (pandrecht) in respect of such shares. The Ordinary Shares listed in this transaction will be held through DTC. Therefore, DTC or its nominee will be recorded in the shareholders’ register as the holder of those Ordinary Shares. The Ordinary Shares shall be in registered form (op naam).

The Articles contain no limitation on the rights to own Allego’s shares and no limitation on the rights of non-residents of the Netherlands or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters

Under Dutch law, the members of the Board may be held liable for damages in the event of improper or negligent performance of their duties. They may be held jointly and severally liable for damages to Allego and to third parties for infringement of the Articles or of certain provisions of Dutch law.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Articles provide for indemnification of Allego’s current and former directors and other current and former officers and employees as designated by the Board. No indemnification under the Articles shall be given to an indemnified person:

•if a competent court or arbitral tribunal has established, without having (or no longer having) the possibility for appeal, that the acts or omissions of such indemnified person that led to the financial losses, damages, expenses, suit, claim, action or legal proceedings as described above are of an unlawful nature (including acts or omissions which are considered to constitute malice, gross negligence, intentional recklessness and/ or serious culpability attributable to such indemnified person);

•to the extent that his or her financial losses, damages and expenses are covered under insurance and the relevant insurer has settled, or has provided reimbursement for, these financial losses, damages and expenses (or has irrevocably undertaken to do so);

•in relation to proceedings brought by such indemnified person against Allego, except for proceedings brought to enforce indemnification to which he or she is entitled pursuant to the Articles, pursuant to an agreement between such indemnified person and Allego which has been approved by the Board or pursuant to insurance taken out by Allego for the benefit of such indemnified person; and

•for any financial losses, damages or expenses incurred in connection with a settlement of any proceedings effected without Allego’s prior consent.

Pursuant to Dutch law, one or more shareholders or others with meeting rights under Dutch law who jointly represent at least one-tenth of Allego’s issued share capital may request Allego to convene a General Meeting, setting out in detail the matters to be discussed. If the Board has not taken the steps necessary to ensure that such meeting can be held within six weeks after the request, the proponent(s) may, on their application, be authorized by a competent Dutch court in preliminary relief proceedings to convene a General Meeting. The court shall disallow the application if it does not appear that the proponent(s) has/have previously requested the Board to convene a General Meeting and the Board has not taken the necessary steps so that the General Meeting could be held within six weeks after the request.

A General Meeting must be convened by an announcement published in a Dutch daily newspaper with national distribution. The notice must state the agenda, the time and place of the meeting, the record date (if any), the procedure for participating in the General Meeting by proxy, as well as other information as required by Dutch law. Allego will observe the statutory minimum convening notice period for a General Meeting. The agenda for the annual General Meeting shall include, among other things, the adoption of Allego’s statutory annual accounts, appropriation of Allego’s profits and

68

Table of Contents

proposals relating to the composition of the Board, including the filling of any vacancies. In addition, the agenda shall include such items as have been included therein by the Board. The agenda shall also include such items requested by one or more shareholders or others with meeting rights under Dutch law representing at least 3% of Allego’s issued share capital. These requests must be made in writing or by electronic means and received by the Board at least 60 days before the day of the meeting. No resolutions shall be adopted on items other than those that have been included in the agenda.

In accordance with the Dutch Corporate Governance Code (the “DCGC”) and Allego’s Articles, shareholders having the right to put an item on the agenda under the rules described above shall exercise such right only after consulting the Board in that respect. If one or more shareholders intend to request that an item be put on the agenda that may result in a change in Allego’s strategy (for example, the dismissal of members of the Board), the Board must be given the opportunity to invoke a reasonable period up to 180 days to respond to the shareholders' intentions. If invoked, the Board must use such response period for further deliberation and constructive consultation, in any event with the shareholders(s) concerned, and must explore the alternatives. At the end of the response time, the Board must report on this consultation and the exploration of alternatives to the General Meeting. The response period may be invoked only once for any given General Meeting and shall not apply: (a) in respect of a matter for which either a response period or a statutory cooling-off period (as described below) has been previously invoked; or (b) if a shareholder holds at least 75% of Allego’s issued share capital as a consequence of a successful public bid.

Moreover, the Board can invoke a cooling-off period of up to 250 days when shareholders, using either their shareholder proposal right or their right to request a General Meeting, propose an agenda item for the General Meeting to dismiss, suspend or appoint a member of the Board (or to amend any provision in the Articles dealing with those matters) or when a public offer for Allego is made or announced without Allego’s support, provided, in each case, that the Board believes that such proposal or offer materially conflicts with the interests of Allego and its business. During a cooling-off period, the General Meeting cannot dismiss, suspend or appoint members of the Board (or amend the provisions in the Articles dealing with those matters) except at the proposal of the Board. During a cooling-off period, the Board must gather all relevant information necessary for a careful decision-making process and at least consult with shareholders representing 3% or more of Allego’s issued share capital at the time the cooling-off period was invoked, as well as with Allego’s Dutch works council (if we or, under certain circumstances, any of our subsidiaries would have one). Formal statements expressed by these stakeholders during such consultations must be published on Allego’s website to the extent these stakeholders have approved that publication. Ultimately one week following the last day of the cooling-off period, the Board of directors must publish a report in respect of its policy and conduct of affairs during the cooling-off period on Allego’s website. This report must remain available for inspection by shareholders and others with meeting rights under Dutch law at Allego’s office and must be tabled for discussion at the next General Meeting.

Shareholders representing at least 3% of Allego’s issued share capital may request the Dutch Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeals for early termination of the cooling-off period. The Enterprise Chamber must rule in favor of the request if the shareholders can demonstrate that:

a.the Board, in light of the circumstances at hand when the cooling-off period was invoked, could not reasonably have come to the conclusion that the relevant shareholder proposal or hostile offer constituted a material conflict with the interests of Allego and its business;

b.the Board cannot reasonably believe that a continuation of the cooling-off period would contribute to careful policy-making; and

c.if other defensive measures, having the same purpose, nature and scope as the cooling-off period, have been activated during the cooling-off period and not terminated or suspended at the relevant shareholders’ request within a reasonable period following the request (i.e., no ‘stacking’ of defensive measures).

The General Meeting is presided over by the chairperson of the Board. If no chairperson has been elected or if he or she is not present at the meeting, the General Meeting shall be presided over by the vice-chairperson of the Board. If no vice-chairperson has been elected or if he or she is not present at the meeting, the General Meeting shall be presided over by a person designated in accordance with the Articles. Directors may always attend a General Meeting. In these meetings, they have an advisory vote. The chairperson of the General Meeting may decide at his or her discretion to admit other persons to the meeting.

All shareholders and others with meeting rights under Dutch law are authorized to attend the General Meeting, to address the meeting and, in so far as they have such right, to vote pro rata to his or her shareholding. Shareholders may exercise these rights, if they are the holders of Ordinary Shares on the record date, if any, as required by Dutch law, which is currently the 28th day before the day of the General Meeting. Under the Articles, shareholders and others with meeting rights under Dutch law must notify Allego in writing or by electronic means of their identity and intention to attend the

69

Table of Contents

General Meeting. This notice must be received by Allego ultimately on the seventh day prior to the General Meeting, unless indicated otherwise when such meeting is convened.

Each Ordinary Share confers the right on the holder to cast one vote at the General Meeting. Shareholders may vote by proxy. No votes may be cast at a General Meeting on Ordinary Shares held by Allego or its subsidiaries or on Ordinary Shares for which Allego or its subsidiaries hold depository receipts. Nonetheless, the holders of a right of usufruct (vruchtgebruik) and the holders of a right of pledge (pandrecht) in respect of Ordinary Shares held by Allego or its subsidiaries in its share capital are not excluded from the right to vote on such Ordinary Shares, if the right of usufruct (vruchtgebruik) or the right of pledge (pandrecht) was granted prior to the time such Ordinary Shares were acquired by Allego or any of its subsidiaries. Neither Allego nor any of its subsidiaries may cast votes in respect of an Ordinary Share on which Allego or such subsidiary holds a right of usufruct (vruchtgebruik) or a right of pledge (pandrecht). Ordinary Shares which are not entitled to voting rights pursuant to the preceding sentences will not be taken into account for the purpose of determining the number of shareholders that vote and that are present or represented, or the amount of the share capital that is provided or that is represented at a General Meeting.

Decisions of the General Meeting are taken by a simple majority of votes cast, except where Dutch law or the Articles provide for a qualified majority or unanimity.

Directors

Appointment of Directors

Allego’s directors are appointed by the general meeting upon binding nomination by the Board. However, the general meeting may at all times overrule a binding nomination by a resolution adopted by at least a two-thirds majority of the votes cast, provided such majority represents more than half of the issued share capital. If the general meeting overrules a binding nomination, the Board shall make a new nomination.

The Board adopted a diversity policy for the composition of the Board, as well as a profile for the composition of the Board. The Board shall make any nomination for the appointment of a Director with due regard to the rules and principles set forth in such diversity policy and profile, as applicable.

At a General Meeting, a resolution to appoint a Director can only be passed in respect of candidates whose names are stated for that purpose in the agenda of that general meeting or in the explanatory notes thereto.

Duties and Liabilities of Directors

Under Dutch law, the Board is charged with the management of Allego, subject to the restrictions contained in the Articles. The Executive Directors manage Allego’s day-to-day business and operations and implement Allego’s strategy. The Non-Executive Directors focus on the supervision on the policy and functioning of the performance of the duties of all Directors and Allego’s general state of affairs. The Directors may divide their tasks among themselves in or pursuant to internal rules. Each Director has a statutory duty to act in the corporate interest of Allego and its business. Under Dutch law, the corporate interest extends to the interests of all corporate stakeholders, such as shareholders, creditors, employees, customers and suppliers. The duty to act in the corporate interest of Allego also applies in the event of a proposed sale or break-up of Allego, provided that the circumstances generally dictate how such duty is to be applied and how the respective interests of various groups of stakeholders should be weighed.

Certain Other Major Transactions

The Articles and Dutch law provide that resolutions of the Board concerning a material change to the identity or the character of Allego or the business are subject to the approval of Allego shareholders at the General Meeting. Such changes include:

•transferring the business or materially all of the business to a third-party;

•entering into or terminating a long-lasting alliance of Allego or of a subsidiary either with another entity or company, or as a fully liable partner of a limited partnership or general partnership, if this alliance or termination is of significant importance for Allego; and

•acquiring or disposing of an interest in the capital of a company by Allego or by a subsidiary with a value of at least one third of the value of the assets, according to the balance sheet with explanatory notes or, if Allego prepares a consolidated balance sheet, according to the consolidated balance sheet with explanatory notes in Allego’s most recently adopted annual accounts.

Dividends and Other Distributions

Dividends

Allego has never paid or declared any cash dividends in the past, and Allego does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Allego intends to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the further development and expansion of its business. Under Dutch law, Allego may only pay dividends and other distributions from its reserves to the extent its shareholders’ equity (eigen vermogen) exceeds the sum of its paid-in and called-up share capital plus the reserves Allego must maintain under Dutch law or the Articles and (if it concerns a distribution of profits) after adoption of Allego’s statutory annual accounts by the General Meeting from which it appears that such dividend distribution is allowed. Subject to those restrictions, any future determination to pay dividends or other distributions from its reserves will be at the discretion of the Board and will depend upon a number of factors, including Allego’s results of operations, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors Allego deems relevant.

Under the Articles, the Board may decide that all or part of the profits shown in Allego’s adopted statutory annual accounts will be added to Allego’s reserves. After reservation of any such profits, any remaining profits will be at the disposal of the General Meeting at the proposal of the Board for distribution on the Ordinary Shares, subject to applicable restrictions of Dutch law. The Board is permitted, subject to certain requirements and applicable restrictions of Dutch law, to declare interim dividends without the approval of the General Meeting. Dividends and other distributions shall be made payable no later than a date determined by the Board. Claims to dividends and other distributions not made within five years from the date that such dividends or distributions became payable will lapse and any such amounts will be considered to have been forfeited to Allego (verjaring).

Allego may reclaim any distributions, whether interim or not interim, made in contravention of certain restrictions of Dutch law from shareholders that knew or should have known that such distribution was not permissible. In addition, on the basis of Dutch case law, if after a distribution Allego is not able to pay its due and collectable debts, then its shareholders or directors who at the time of the distribution knew or reasonably should have foreseen that result may be liable to Allego’s creditors. Allego has never declared or paid any cash dividends and Allego has no plan to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future on Ordinary Shares. Allego currently intends to retain any earnings for future operations and expansion.

Since Allego is a holding company, its ability to pay dividends will be dependent upon the financial condition, liquidity and results of operations of, and Allego’s receipt of dividends, loans or other funds from, its subsidiaries. Allego’s subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to make funds available to Allego. In addition, there are various statutory, regulatory and contractual limitations and business considerations on the extent, if any, to which Allego’s subsidiaries may pay dividends, make loans or otherwise provide funds to Allego.

Exchange Controls

Under Dutch law, there are no exchange controls applicable to the transfer to persons outside of the Netherlands of dividends or other distributions with respect to, or of the proceeds from the sale of, shares of a Dutch company, subject to applicable restrictions under sanctions and measures, including those concerning export control, pursuant to European Union regulations, the Sanctions Act 1977 (Sanctiewet 1977) or other legislation, applicable anti-boycott regulations, applicable anti-money-laundering regulations and similar rules and provided that, under circumstances, payments of such dividends or other distributions must be reported to the Dutch Central Bank at their request for statistical purposes. There are no special restrictions in the Articles or Dutch law that limit the right of shareholders who are not citizens or residents of the Netherlands to hold or vote shares.

Squeeze-Out Procedure

A shareholder who holds at least 95% of Allego’s issued share capital for his or her own account, alone or together with group companies, may initiate proceedings against Allego’s other shareholders jointly for the transfer of their Ordinary Shares to such shareholder. The proceedings are held before the Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal, or the Enterprise Chamber (Ondernemingskamer), and can be instituted by means of a writ of summons served upon each of the other shareholders in accordance with the provisions of the Dutch Code of Civil Procedure (Wetboek van Burgerlijke Rechtsvordering). The Enterprise Chamber may grant the claim for squeeze-out in relation to the other shareholders and will determine the price to be paid for the Ordinary Shares, if necessary, after appointment of one or three experts who will offer an opinion to the Enterprise Chamber on the value to be paid for the Ordinary Shares of the other shareholders. Once the order to transfer becomes final before the Enterprise Chamber, the person acquiring the shares shall give written notice of the date and place of payment and the price to the holders of the Ordinary Shares to be acquired whose addresses are

71

Table of Contents

known to him. Unless the addresses of all of them are known to the acquiring person, such person is required to publish the same in a daily newspaper with a national circulation.

Dissolution and Liquidation

Under the Articles, Allego may be dissolved by a resolution of the General Meeting, subject to a proposal of the Board. In the event of a dissolution, the liquidation shall be effected by the Board, unless the General Meeting decides otherwise. During liquidation, the provisions of the Articles will remain in force as far as possible. To the extent that any assets remain after payment of all of Allego’s liabilities, any remaining assets shall be distributed to Allego’s shareholders in proportion to their number of Ordinary Shares.

Federal Forum Provision

Under the Articles, unless Allego consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall be the U.S. federal district courts. For further information regarding the limitations that the forum provision may impose and the uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions with respect to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, see the section entitled “Item 3. Risk Factors—D. Risks Related to Ownership of Allego Securities—The Allego Articles include exclusive jurisdiction and forum selection provisions, which may impact the ability of shareholders to bring actions against us or increase the costs of bringing such actions.”

C.Material Contracts

Information pertaining to Allego’s material contracts is set forth in the sections titled “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions”, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

D.Exchange Controls

Information pertaining to exchange controls set forth in “Item 10. Memorandum and Articles of Association—B. Exchange Controls” is incorporated herein by reference.

E.Taxation

Material Dutch Income Tax Considerations

This section only outlines certain material Dutch tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares. This section does not purport to describe all possible tax considerations or consequences that may be relevant to a holder or prospective holder of Ordinary Shares and does not purport to describe the tax consequences applicable to all categories of investors, some of which (such as trusts or similar arrangements) may be subject to special rules.

This section is based on the tax laws of the Netherlands, published regulations thereunder and published authoritative case law, all as in effect on the date hereof, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the tax rates, tax brackets and deemed returns, applicable on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change may invalidate the contents of this section, which will not be updated to reflect such change. Where this section refers to “the Netherlands” or “Dutch” it refers only to the part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located in Europe.

This section is intended as general information only and is not Dutch tax advice or a complete description of all Dutch tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares. In view of its general nature, this section should be treated with corresponding caution. Holders or prospective holders of Ordinary Shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding the Dutch tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares in light of their particular circumstances.

Please note that this section does not describe the Dutch tax consequences for:

i.a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder has a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in Allego under the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001 (Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001). Generally speaking, a holder of securities in a company is considered to hold a substantial interest in such company, if such holder alone or, in the case of individuals, together with such holder’s partner for Dutch income

72

Table of Contents

tax purposes, or any relatives by blood or marriage in the direct line (including foster children), directly or indirectly, holds (i) an interest of 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding capital of that company or of 5% or more of the issued and outstanding capital of a certain class of shares of that company; or (ii) rights to acquire, directly or indirectly, such interest; or (iii) certain profit sharing rights in that company that relate to 5% or more of the company’s annual profits or to 5% or more of the company’s liquidation proceeds. A deemed substantial interest may arise if a substantial interest (or part thereof) in a company has been disposed of, or is deemed to have been disposed of, on a non-recognition basis;

ii.a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder applies the participation exemption (deelnemingsvrijstelling) with respect to the Ordinary Shares for purposes of the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969 (Wet op de vennootschapsbelasting 1969). Generally, a holder’s shareholding of, or right to acquire, 5% or more in a company’s nominal paid-up share capital qualifies as a participation (deelneming). A holder may also have a participation if (a) such holder does not have a shareholding of 5% or more but a related entity (statutorily defined term) has a participation or (b) the company in which the shares are held is a related entity (statutorily defined term);

iii.a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder is entitled to the dividend withholding tax exemption (inhoudingsvrijstelling) with respect to any income (opbrengst) derived from the Ordinary Shares (as defined in Article 4 of the Dutch Dividend Withholding Tax Act 1965 (Wet op de dividendbelasting). Generally, a holder of Ordinary Shares may be entitled or required to apply, subject to certain other requirements, the dividend withholding tax exemption if it is an entity and holds an interest of 5% or more in Allego's nominal paid-up share capital;

iv.a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder is a pension fund, investment institution (fiscale beleggingsinstelling) or a tax exempt investment institution (vrijgestelde beleggingsinstelling) (each as defined in the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969) or another entity that is, in whole or in part, not subject to or exempt from Dutch corporate income tax, is an entity that has a function comparable to an investment institution or tax exempt investment institution, or that is exempt from corporate income tax in its country of residence, such country of residence being another state of the European Union, Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland or any other state with which the Netherlands has agreed to exchange information in line with international standards;

v.a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder is an individual for whom the Ordinary Shares or any benefit derived from the Ordinary Shares is a remuneration or deemed to be a remuneration for (employment) activities performed by such holder or certain individuals related to such holder (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001); and

vi.a holder of Warrants.

Withholding tax

Dividends distributed by Allego are generally subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax at a rate of 15%. Generally, Allego is responsible for the withholding of such dividend withholding tax at its source; the Dutch dividend withholding tax is for the account of the holder of Ordinary Shares.

The expression “dividends distributed” includes, among other things:

i.distributions in cash or in kind, deemed and constructive distributions and repayments of paid-in capital not recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes;

ii.liquidation proceeds, proceeds from the redemption of Ordinary Shares or proceeds from the repurchase of Ordinary Shares (other than as temporary portfolio investment; tijdelijke belegging) by Allego or one of its subsidiaries or other affiliated entities, in each case to the extent such proceeds exceed the average paid-in capital of those Ordinary Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes;

iii.an amount equal to the par value of Ordinary Shares issued or an increase of the par value of Ordinary Shares, to the extent that it does not appear that a contribution, recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes, has been made or will be made; and

iv.partial repayment of the paid-in capital, recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes, if and to the extent Allego has net profits (zuivere winst), unless (i) the General Meeting has resolved in advance to make such repayment and (ii) the par value of the Ordinary Shares concerned has been reduced by an equal amount by way of an amendment of Allego’s Articles. The term “net profits” includes anticipated profits that are yet to be realized.

Table of Contents

Corporate legal entities which are resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands for Dutch corporate income tax purposes (“Dutch Resident Entities”) generally are entitled to an exemption from, or a credit for, any Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch corporate income tax liability. The credit in any given year is, however, limited to the amount of Dutch corporate income tax payable in respect of the relevant year with an indefinite carry forward of any excess amount. Individuals who are resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands for Dutch personal income tax purposes (“Dutch Resident Individuals”) generally are entitled to a credit for any Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch income tax liability and to a refund of any residual Dutch dividend withholding tax.

The above generally also applies to holders of Ordinary Shares that are neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands (“Non-Resident Holders”) if the Ordinary Shares are attributable to a Dutch permanent establishment of such Non-Resident Holder.

A holder of Ordinary Shares resident of a country other than the Netherlands may, depending on such holder’s specific circumstances, be entitled to exemptions from, reductions of, or full or partial refunds of, Dutch dividend withholding tax under Dutch national tax legislation, EU law, or a double taxation convention in effect between the Netherlands and such other country.

Dividend stripping. According to Dutch domestic anti-dividend stripping rules, no credit against Dutch tax, exemption from, reduction, or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax will be granted if the recipient of the dividends Allego paid is not considered the beneficial owner (uiteindelijk gerechtigde; as described in the Dutch Dividend Withholding Tax Act 1965) of those dividends. This legislation generally targets situations in which a shareholder retains its economic interest in shares but reduces the withholding tax costs on dividends by a transaction with another party. It is not required for these rules to apply that the recipient of the dividends is aware that a dividend stripping transaction took place. The Dutch State Secretary of Finance takes the position that the definition of beneficial ownership introduced by this legislation will also be applied in the context of a double taxation convention.

As from January 1, 2024, more stringent rules apply to the setoff, exemption from, and reduction or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax to address situations where a claim for setoff, exemption, reduction or refund may align with the letter of Dutch tax law or a double taxation convention but goes against the underlying intention or spirit of the dividend stripping rules, as perceived by the legislator. The burden of proof with respect to beneficial ownership of dividends distributed by the Company rests on the Dutch tax authorities. If, however, a shareholder would receive dividends, including dividends on the Ordinary Shares, in a calendar year in respect of which an aggregate amount of EUR 1,000 in Dutch dividend withholding tax would otherwise be due based on the rate of 15%, the burden of proof with respect to beneficial ownership of such dividends lies with the shareholder. Furthermore, for shares traded on a regulated market, including the Ordinary Shares, it has been codified that the record date is used when determining the person who is entitled to the dividend.

Conditional withholding tax on dividends. In addition to the regular Dutch dividend withholding tax as described above, a Dutch conditional withholding tax will be imposed on dividends distributed by Allego to entities related (gelieerd) to Allego (within the meaning of the Dutch Withholding Tax Act 2021; Wet bronbelasting 2021), if such related entity:

i.is considered to be resident (gevestigd) in a jurisdiction that is listed in the yearly updated Dutch Regulation on low-taxing states and non-cooperative jurisdictions for tax purposes (Regeling laagbelastende staten en niet-coöperatieve rechtsgebieden voor belastingdoeleinden) (a “Listed Jurisdiction”); or

ii.has a permanent establishment located in a Listed Jurisdiction to which the Ordinary Shares are attributable; or

iii.holds the Ordinary Shares with the main purpose or one of the main purposes of avoiding taxation for another person or entity and there is an artificial arrangement or transaction or a series of artificial arrangements or transactions; or

iv.is not considered to be the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares in its jurisdiction of residences because such jurisdiction treats another entity as the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares (a hybrid mismatch); or

v.is not resident in any jurisdiction (also a hybrid mismatch); or

vi.is a reverse hybrid (within the meaning of Article 2(12) of the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969), if and to the extent (x) there is a participant in the reverse hybrid which is related (gelieerd) to the reverse hybrid, (y) the jurisdiction of residence of such participant treats the reverse hybrid as transparent for tax purposes and (z) such participant would have been subject to the Dutch conditional withholding tax in respect of dividends distributed by Allego without the interposition of the reverse hybrid, all within the meaning of the Dutch Withholding Tax Act 2021.

74

Table of Contents

The Dutch conditional withholding tax on dividends will be imposed at the highest Dutch corporate income tax rate in effect at the time of the distribution (2024: 25.8%). The Dutch conditional withholding tax on dividends will be reduced, but not below zero, by any regular Dutch dividend withholding tax withheld in respect of the same dividend distribution. As such, based on the currently applicable rates, the overall effective tax rate of withholding the regular Dutch dividend withholding tax (as described above) and the Dutch conditional withholding tax on dividends will not exceed the highest corporate income tax rate in effect at the time of the distribution (2024: 25.8%).

Taxes on income and capital gains

Dutch Resident Entities. Generally, if the holder of Ordinary Shares is a Dutch Resident Entity, any income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or any capital gain or loss realized on the disposal or deemed disposal of Ordinary Shares is subject to Dutch corporate income tax at a rate of 19% with respect to taxable profits up to €200,000 and 25.8% with respect to taxable profits in excess of that amount (rates and brackets for 2024).

Dutch Resident Individuals. If the holder of Ordinary Shares is a Dutch Resident Individual, any income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or any capital gain or loss realized on the disposal or deemed disposal of the Ordinary Shares is taxable at the progressive Dutch income tax rates (with a maximum of 49.5% in 2024), if:

i.the Ordinary Shares are attributable to an enterprise from which the holder of Ordinary Shares derives a share of the profit, whether as an entrepreneur (ondernemer) or as a person who has a co-entitlement to the net worth (medegerechtigd tot het vermogen) of such enterprise without being a shareholder (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001); or

ii.the holder of Ordinary Shares is considered to perform activities with respect to the Ordinary Shares that go beyond ordinary asset management (normaal, actief vermogensbeheer) or otherwise derives benefits from the Ordinary Shares that are taxable as benefits from other activities (resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden).

Taxation of savings and investments. If the above-mentioned conditions (i) and (ii) do not apply to the Dutch Resident Individual, the Ordinary Shares will be subject to an annual Dutch income tax under the regime for savings and investments (inkomen uit sparen en beleggen). Taxation only occurs insofar the Dutch Resident Individual's net investment assets for the year exceed a statutory threshold (heffingvrij vermogen). The net investment assets for the year are the fair market value of the investment assets less the fair market value of the liabilities on January 1 of the relevant calendar year (reference date; peildatum). Actual income or capital gains realized in respect of the Ordinary Shares are as such not subject to Dutch income tax.

The Dutch Resident Individual's assets and liabilities taxed under this regime, including the Ordinary Shares, are allocated over the following three categories: (a) bank savings (banktegoeden), (b) other investments (overige bezittingen), including the Ordinary Shares, and (c) liabilities (schulden). The taxable benefit for the year (voordeel uit sparen en beleggen) is equal to the product of (x) the total deemed return divided by the sum of bank savings, other investments and liabilities and (b) the sum of bank savings, other investments and liabilities minus the statutory threshold, and is taxed at a flat rate of 36% (rate for 2024).

The deemed return applicable to other investments, including the Ordinary Shares, is set at 6.04% for the calendar year 2024. Transactions in the three-month period before and after January 1 of the relevant calendar year implemented to arbitrate between the deemed return percentages applicable to bank savings, other investments and liabilities will for this purpose be ignored if the holder of Ordinary Shares cannot sufficiently demonstrate that such transactions are implemented for other than tax reasons.

The current Dutch income tax regime for savings and investments was implemented in Dutch tax law following the decision of the Dutch Supreme Court (Hoge Raad) of December 24, 2021 (ECLI:NL:2021:1963) (the “Decision”). In the Decision, the Dutch Supreme Court ruled that the (old) system of taxation for savings and investments based on a deemed return may under specific circumstances contravene with Section 1 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights in combination with Section 14 of the European Convention on Human Rights (the “EC-Human Rights”). A new court procedure is pending before the Dutch Supreme Court questioning whether the current tax system for savings and investments is in line with the Decision. On September 18, 2023 (ECLI:NL:PHR:2023:655) the Attorney General Wattel concluded that the new tax system is not in line with the Decision, except for the taxation of bank savings, as the system is, in short, still based on a deemed return rather than actual returns, and as a result, the regime violates the EC-Human Rights. The decision of the Dutch Supreme Court is expected late-2024. In addition, on September 8, 2023, the outgoing (demissionair) cabinet published a law proposal for a new tax system for savings and investments on the basis of actual returns according to an asset accumulation system, the 'Actual Return Box 3 Act' (Wet werkelijk rendement box 3). The proposed system is expected to come into effect on January 1, 2027, at the earliest.

Table of Contents

Holders of Ordinary Shares are advised to consult their own tax advisor to ensure that the tax in respect of the Ordinary Shares is levied in accordance with the applicable Dutch tax rules at the relevant time.

Non-residents of the Netherlands. A holder of Ordinary Shares that is neither a Dutch Resident Entity nor a Dutch Resident Individual will not be subject to Dutch taxes on income or capital gains in respect of any income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or in respect of any capital gain or loss realized on the disposal or deemed disposal of the Ordinary Shares, provided that:

i.such holder does not have an interest in an enterprise or deemed enterprise (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001 and the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969) which, in whole or in part, is either effectively managed in the Netherlands or carried on through a permanent establishment, a deemed permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands and to which enterprise or part of an enterprise the Ordinary Shares are attributable; and

ii.in the event the holder is an individual, such holder does not carry out any activities in the Netherlands with respect to the Ordinary Shares that go beyond ordinary asset management and does not otherwise derive benefits from the Ordinary Shares that are taxable as benefits from other activities in the Netherlands.

Gift and inheritance taxes

Residents of the Netherlands. Gift or inheritance taxes will arise in the Netherlands with respect to a transfer of Ordinary Shares by way of a gift by, or on the death of, a holder of Ordinary Shares who is resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands at the time of the gift or such holder’s death.

Non-residents of the Netherlands. No gift or inheritance taxes will arise in the Netherlands with respect to a transfer of Ordinary Shares by way of a gift by, or on the death of, a holder of Ordinary Shares who is neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands, unless:

i.in the case of a gift of an Ordinary Share by an individual who at the date of the gift was neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands, such individual dies within 180 days after the date of the gift, while being resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands;

ii.in the case of a gift of an Ordinary Share is made under a condition precedent, the holder of the Ordinary Share is resident or is deemed to be resident of the Netherlands at the time the condition is fulfilled; or

iii.the transfer is otherwise construed as a gift or inheritance made by, or on behalf of, a person who, at the time of the gift or death, is or is deemed to be resident of the Netherlands.

For purposes of Dutch gift and inheritance taxes, amongst others, a person that holds the Dutch nationality will be deemed to be resident of the Netherlands if such person has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the ten years preceding the date of the gift or such person’s death. Additionally, for purposes of Dutch gift tax, amongst others, a person not holding the Dutch nationality will be deemed to be resident of the Netherlands if such person has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the twelve months preceding the date of the gift. Applicable tax treaties may override deemed residency.

Value added tax (“VAT”)

No Dutch VAT will be payable by a holder of Ordinary Shares in respect of any payment in consideration for the ownership or disposition of the Ordinary Shares.

Stamp duties

No Dutch documentation taxes (commonly referred to as stamp duties) will be payable by a holder of Ordinary Shares in respect of any payment in consideration for the holding or disposal, as applicable, of the Ordinary Shares.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations to Holders (as defined below) relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the Ordinary Shares as of the date hereof. The discussion below only applies to the Ordinary Shares held as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes and does not describe all of the tax

consequences that may be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances, including alternative minimum tax and Medicare contribution tax consequences, or holders who are subject to special rules, such as:

•financial institutions or financial services entities;

•insurance companies;

•government agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

•regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts;

•expatriates or former residents of the United States;

•persons that acquired the Ordinary Shares pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation;

•dealers or traders subject to a mark-to-market method of tax accounting with respect to the Ordinary Shares;

•persons holding the Ordinary Shares as part of a “straddle,” constructive sale, hedging, integrated transactions or similar transactions;

•a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

•entities or arrangements treated as partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or holders of interests therein;

•persons that actually or constructively own five percent or more of any class of Allego’s stock (by vote or by value);

•“controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

•a person required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to the Ordinary Shares as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable consolidated financial statement;

•a person actually or constructively owning 10% or more of the Ordinary Shares;

•real estate investment trusts;

•regulated investment companies;

•certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States; or

•tax-exempt entities.

This discussion does not consider the tax treatment of entities that are partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or persons who hold the Ordinary Shares through such entities. If a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes is the beneficial owner of Ordinary Shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partners of the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partners and the activities of the partner and the partnership. This discussion assumes that Allego is not an Inverted Corporation or a Surrogate Foreign Corporation.

This discussion is based on the Code, and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date hereof may affect the tax consequences described herein. This discussion does not take into account potential suggested or proposed changes in such tax laws which may impact the discussion below and does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes. Each of the foregoing is subject to change, potentially with retroactive effect. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction.

THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE ORDINARY SHARES. EACH HOLDER OF ORDINARY SHARES IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS, AS WELL AS U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS AND ANY APPLICABLE TAX TREATIES.

Holder, U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holder Defined

The section applies to you if you are a U.S. Holder. For purposes of this discussion, a U.S. Holder means a beneficial owner of Ordinary Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

•a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

•a trust if (1) a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (2) the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

A “Non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of Allego Ordinary Shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation, estate or trust, in each case that is not a U.S. Holder. “U.S. Holders” and “Non-U.S. Holders” are referred to collectively herein as “Holders”.

Distributions on Ordinary Shares

Subject to the discussion below under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” the gross amount of any distribution on Ordinary Shares that is made out of Allego’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received. Any such dividends generally will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations. To the extent that the amount of the distribution exceeds Allego’s current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), such excess amount will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in its Ordinary Shares, and thereafter as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange.

Subject to the discussion below under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” dividends received by non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation, provided that certain holding period requirements and other conditions are satisfied. For these purposes, a non-U.S. corporation will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that meets certain requirements. There can be no assurances that Allego will be eligible for benefits of an applicable comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States. A non-U.S. corporation is also treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends it pays on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury guidance indicates that shares listed on NYSE are generally considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance that Ordinary Shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in future years. Non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code (dealing with the deduction for investment interest expense) will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of Allego’s status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to the positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. Allego will not constitute a qualified foreign corporation for purposes of these rules if it is a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year in which it pays a dividend or for the preceding taxable year. See “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.” U.S. Holders should consult with their tax advisors regarding the availability of the lower preferential rate for qualified dividend income for any dividends paid with respect to the Ordinary Shares.

Subject to certain conditions and limitations, withholding taxes, if any, on dividends paid by Allego may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability under the U.S. foreign tax credit rules. For purposes of calculating the U.S. foreign tax credit, dividends paid on Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. The rules governing the U.S. foreign tax credit are complex. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the U.S. foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.

Sale, Exchange, Redemption or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares

Subject to the discussion below under “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules,” a U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of Ordinary Shares in an amount

78

Table of Contents

equal to the difference between (i) the amount realized on the disposition and (ii) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Ordinary Shares. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of Ordinary Shares generally will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period in such Ordinary Shares exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or exchange of Ordinary Shares generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

Generally. The treatment of U.S. Holders of the Ordinary Shares could be materially different from that described above if Allego is treated as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A PFIC is any foreign corporation with respect to which either: (i) 75% or more of the gross income for a taxable year constitutes passive income for purposes of the PFIC rules, or (ii) 50% or more of such foreign corporation’s assets in any taxable year (generally based on the quarterly average of the value of its assets during such year) is attributable to assets, including cash, that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, certain royalties and rents, annuities, net gains from the sale or exchange of property producing such income and net foreign currency gains. The determination of whether a foreign corporation is a PFIC is based upon the composition of such foreign corporation’s income and assets (including, among others, its proportionate share of the income and assets of any other corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, 25% (by value) of the stock), and the nature of such foreign corporation’s activities. A separate determination must be made after the close of each taxable year as to whether a foreign corporation was a PFIC for that year. Once a foreign corporation qualifies as a PFIC it is, with respect to a shareholder during the time it qualifies as a PFIC, and subject to certain exceptions, always treated as a PFIC with respect to such shareholder, regardless of whether it satisfied either of the qualification tests in subsequent years.

The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually after the close of the taxable year, and it is difficult to predict accurately future income and assets relevant to this determination. The fair market value of the assets of Allego is expected to depend, in part, upon (a) the market value of the Ordinary Shares, and (b) the composition of the assets and income of Allego. Further, because Allego may value its goodwill based on the market value of the Ordinary Shares, a decrease in the market value of the Ordinary Shares and/or an increase in cash or other passive assets would increase the relative percentage of its passive assets. The application of the PFIC rules is subject to uncertainty in several respects and, therefore, no assurances can be provided that the IRS will not assert that Allego is a PFIC for the current taxable year or in a future year.

If Allego is or becomes a PFIC during any year in which a U.S. Holder holds Ordinary Shares, there are three separate taxation regimes that could apply to such U.S. Holder under the PFIC rules, which are the (i) excess distribution regime (which is the default regime), (ii) QEF regime, and (iii) mark-to-market regime. A U.S. Holder who holds (actually or constructively) stock in a foreign corporation during any year in which such corporation qualifies as a PFIC is subject to U.S. federal income taxation under one of these three regimes. The effect of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder will depend upon which of these regimes applies to such U.S. Holder. However, dividends paid by a PFIC are generally not eligible for the lower rates of taxation applicable to qualified dividend income (“QDI”) under any of the foregoing regimes.

Excess Distribution Regime. If you do not make a QEF election or a mark-to-market election, as described below, you will be subject to the default “excess distribution regime” under the PFIC rules with respect to (i) any gain realized on a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of your Ordinary Shares, and (ii) any “excess distribution” you receive on your Ordinary Shares (generally, any distributions in excess of 125% of the average of the annual distributions on Ordinary Shares during the preceding three years or your holding period, whichever is shorter). Generally, under this excess distribution regime:

•the gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the period during which you held your Ordinary Shares;

•the amount allocated to the current taxable year, will be treated as ordinary income; and

•the amount allocated to prior taxable years will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for that taxable year and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.

The tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of disposition or excess distribution will be payable generally without regard to offsets from deductions, losses and expenses. In addition, gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of your Ordinary Shares cannot be treated as capital gains, even if you hold the shares as capital assets. Further, no portion of any distribution will be treated as QDI.

79

Table of Contents

QEF Regime. A QEF election is effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. If a U.S. Holder makes a timely QEF election with respect to its direct or indirect interest in a PFIC, the U.S. Holder will be required to include in income each year a portion of the ordinary earnings and net capital gains of the PFIC as QEF income inclusions, even if amount is not distributed to the U.S. Holder. Thus, the U.S. Holder may be required to report taxable income as a result of QEF income inclusions without corresponding receipts of cash. Allego’s shareholders that are U.S. Holders subject to U.S. federal income tax should not expect that they will receive cash distributions from Allego sufficient to cover their respective U.S. tax liability with respect to such QEF income inclusions.

The timely QEF election also allows the electing U.S. Holder to: (i) generally treat any gain recognized on the disposition of its shares of the PFIC as capital gain; (ii) treat its share of the PFIC’s net capital gain, if any, as long-term capital gain instead of ordinary income; and (iii) either avoid interest charges resulting from PFIC status altogether, or make an annual election, subject to certain limitations, to defer payment of current taxes on its share of PFIC’s annual realized net capital gain and ordinary earnings subject, however, to an interest charge on the deferred tax computed by using the statutory rate of interest applicable to an extension of time for payment of tax. In addition, net losses (if any) of a PFIC will not pass through to our shareholders and may not be carried back or forward in computing such PFIC’s ordinary earnings and net capital gain in other taxable years. Consequently, a U.S. Holder may over time be taxed on amounts that as an economic matter exceed our net profits.

A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in Ordinary Shares will be increased to reflect QEF income inclusions and will be decreased to reflect distributions of amounts previously included in income as QEF income inclusions. No portion of the QEF income inclusions attributable to ordinary income will be treated as QDI. Amounts included as QEF income inclusions with respect to direct and indirect investments generally will not be taxed again when distributed. You should consult your tax advisors as to the manner in which QEF income inclusions affect your allocable share of Allego’s income and your basis in your Ordinary Shares.

In order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. Holder must receive certain information from Allego. If Allego determines that it is a PFIC for any taxable year, Allego will endeavor to provide all of the information that a U.S. Holder making a QEF election is required to obtain to make and maintain a QEF election, but there is no assurance that Allego will timely provide such information. There is also no assurance that Allego will have timely knowledge of its status as a PFIC in the future or of the required information to be provided. In addition, if Allego holds an interest in a lower-tier PFIC (including, without limitation, in any PFIC subsidiaries), U.S. Holders will generally be subject to the PFIC rules described above with respect to any such lower-tier PFICs. There can be no assurance that a portfolio company or subsidiary in which Allego holds an interest will not qualify as a PFIC, or that a PFIC in which Allego holds an interest will provide the information necessary for a QEF election to be made by a U.S. Holder (in particular if Allego does not control that PFIC).

Mark-to-Market Regime. Alternatively, a U.S. Holder may make an election to mark marketable shares in a PFIC to market on an annual basis. PFIC shares generally are marketable if: (i) they are “regularly traded” on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC or on the national market system established under Section 11A of the Exchange Act; or (ii) they are “regularly traded” on any exchange or market that the Treasury Department determines to have rules sufficient to ensure that the market price accurately represents the fair market value of the stock. It is expected that Ordinary Shares, which are listed on NYSE, will qualify as marketable shares for the PFIC rules purposes, but there can be no assurance that Ordinary Shares will be “regularly traded” for purposes of these rules. Pursuant to such an election, you would include in each year as ordinary income the excess, if any, of the fair market value of such stock over its adjusted basis at the end of the taxable year. You may treat as ordinary loss any excess of the adjusted basis of the stock over its fair market value at the end of the year, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of the election in prior years. A U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the PFIC shares will be increased to reflect any amounts included in income, and decreased to reflect any amounts deducted, as a result of a mark-to-market election. Any gain recognized on a disposition of Ordinary Shares will be treated as ordinary income and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss (but only to the extent of the net amount of income previously included as a result of a mark-to-market election). A mark-to-market election only applies for the taxable year in which the election was made, and for each subsequent taxable year, unless the PFIC shares ceased to be marketable or the IRS consents to the revocation of the election. U.S. Holders should also be aware that the Code and the Treasury Regulations do not allow a mark-to-market election with respect to stock of lower-tier PFICs that is non-marketable. There is also no provision in the Code, Treasury Regulations or other published authority that specifically provides that a mark-to-market election with respect to the stock of a publicly-traded holding company (such as Allego) effectively exempts stock of any lower-tier PFICs from the negative tax consequences arising from the general PFIC rules. We advise you to consult your own tax advisor to determine whether the mark-to-market tax election is available to you and the consequences resulting from such election.

PFIC Reporting Requirements. A U.S. Holder of Ordinary Shares will be required to file an annual report on IRS Form 8621 containing such information with respect to its interest in a PFIC as the IRS may require. Failure to file IRS Form 8621 for each applicable taxable year may result in substantial penalties and result in the U.S. Holder’s taxable years being open to audit by the IRS until such Forms are properly filed.

Additional Reporting Requirements. Certain U.S. Holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of the applicable dollar thresholds are required to report information to the IRS relating to Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for Ordinary Shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), by attaching a complete IRS Form 8938 to their tax return, for each year in which they hold Ordinary Shares. Substantial penalties apply to any failure to file IRS Form 8938, unless the failure is shown to be due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect. Also, in the event a U.S. Holder does not file IRS Form 8938 or fails to report a specified foreign financial asset that is required to be reported, the statute of limitations on the assessment and collection of U.S. federal income taxes of such U.S. Holder for the related taxable year may not close before the date which is three years after the date on which the required information is filed. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of these rules on the ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares.

Non-U.S. Holders

A non-U.S. Holder of Ordinary Shares will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or, subject to the discussion below under “—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding,” U.S. federal withholding tax on any dividends received on Ordinary Shares or any gain recognized on a sale or other disposition of Ordinary Shares (including, any distribution to the extent it exceeds the adjusted basis in the non-U.S. Holder’s Ordinary Shares) unless the dividend or gain is effectively connected with the non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, and if required by an applicable tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S. Holder in the United States. In addition, special rules may apply to a non-U.S. Holder that is an individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the sale or disposition, and certain other requirements are met. Such Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the sale or disposition of Ordinary Shares.

Dividends and gains that are effectively connected with a non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base in the United States) generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the same regular U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to a comparable U.S. Holder and, in the case of a non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax at a 30% rate or a lower applicable tax treaty rate.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Information reporting requirements may apply to dividends received by U.S. Holders of Ordinary Shares and the proceeds received on the disposition of Ordinary Shares effected within the United States (and, in certain cases, outside the United States), in each case other than U.S. Holders that are exempt recipients (such as corporations). Backup withholding (currently at a rate of 24%) may apply to such amounts if the U.S. Holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on an IRS Form W-9 provided to the paying agent of the U.S. Holder’s broker) or is otherwise subject to backup withholding. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the U.S. information reporting and backup withholding rules.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and a U.S. Holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing the appropriate claim for a refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2023. As defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act, the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer, our chief financial officer and other management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding our required disclosures.

Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements and includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of a company’s assets, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that a company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of a company’s management and directors, and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

As required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related rules promulgated by the SEC, our management assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 using the criteria set forth in the report “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 was not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as further discussed below.

In connection with the audits of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, our management and our independent registered public accounting firm identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

83

Table of Contents

A remediation project has been set in place to remediate the internal controls according to the design. The remediation of the controls design and effectiveness is currently in progress. Allego did not adequately maintain an effective control environment commensurate with COSO.

Management identified the following material weaknesses:

•Allego did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with the appropriate degree of accounting knowledge, experience and training, to adequately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters commensurate with its accounting and reporting requirements.

•Allego did not adequately maintain formal accounting policies, procedures, including those around risk assessments, and controls, including segregation of duties, over accounts and disclosures to achieve complete, accurate and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures, including segregation of duties and adequate controls related to the preparation and review of journal entries, and related party transactions. Further, Allego did not maintain sufficient entity level controls to prevent and correct material misstatements.

•Allego did not adequately maintain controls over the identification and assessment of recurring transactions in revenue recognition, including modification to contracts, inventory management and valuation, investment in equity securities valuation, and lease accounting as well as the proper accounting of unusual significant transactions such as in areas of share-based payments and related party transactions.

•Allego did not adequately document controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls, including third-party IT service providers, for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Specifically, Allego did not design and maintain (a) program change management controls to ensure that information technology program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately and (b) user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and that adequately restrict user and privileged access to its financial applications and data to appropriate company personnel.

The material weakness related to formal accounting policies, procedures and controls resulted in adjustments to several accounts and disclosures. The IT deficiencies did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements, however, the deficiencies, when aggregated, could impact maintaining effective segregation of duties, as well as the effectiveness of IT-dependent controls that could result in misstatements potentially impacting financial statement accounts and disclosures that would not be prevented or detected. Each of these material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Allego has begun implementing a plan to remediate these material weaknesses. In the second half of 2023, Allego has hired several senior accounting and finance personnel with IFRS and financial reporting experience allowing for the replacement of all temporary accounting and finance staff. This will not only support the company in enhancing controls over routine processes but also in the accounting for more technical topics in its financial statements. Also in 2023, the Company enhanced the policies and procedures over the identification and disclosure of related party transactions. In 2023, Allego has also started to implement improved IT systems to support a faster, more efficient and higher quality financial closing process. Lastly, Allego has initiated the implementation of a Sarbanes Oxley (SOx) framework, including IT general controls, through which it aims to improve its financial controls over all processes.

Allego currently cannot estimate when it will be able to remediate the material weaknesses in full and it cannot, at this time, provide an estimate of the costs it expects to incur in connection with implementing the plan to remediate this material weakness. These remediation measures may be time consuming, costly, and might place significant demands on its financial and operational resources. If Allego is unable to successfully remediate these material weaknesses or successfully rely on outside advisors with expertise in these matters to assist it in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements could contain material misstatements that, when discovered in the future, could cause Allego to fail to meet its future reporting obligations and cause the trading price of Allego Ordinary Shares to decline.

ITEM 16G.    CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Pursuant to Section 303A.11 of the NYSE listing standards applicable to foreign private issuers, we are permitted to follow our home country practices in lieu of certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, provided that we disclose the requirements we are not following and describe the home country practices we are following.

Accordingly, we follow Dutch law and the rules of the DCGC in lieu of certain of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE. The significant differences between Dutch law and the DCGC and the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE are set forth below:

•NYSE listing standards generally require a majority of board members to be “independent” as determined under the NYSE listing standards. While the DCGC, in principle, also requires that a majority of board members be “independent”, the definition of “independent” under the DCGC differs in its details from the corresponding definition of “independent” under the NYSE listing standards. In some cases, DCGC requirements are stricter; in other cases the NYSE listing standards are stricter. Currently, a majority of the members of the Allego Board are independent under the NYSE listing standards and the DCGC.

•NYSE listing standards applicable to U.S. companies require that external auditors be appointed by the audit committee. The general rule under Dutch law is that external auditors are appointed at an Allego General Meeting. In accordance with the requirements of Dutch law, the appointment and removal of our independent registered public accounting firm must be resolved upon at an Allego General Meeting. Our Audit Committee is responsible for determining the process for selecting and determining the remuneration of the independent registered public accounting firm and oversees and evaluates the work of our independent registered public accounting firm.

•Under NYSE listing standards, shareholders of U.S. companies must be given the opportunity to vote on all equity compensation plans and material revisions to those plans, with limited exceptions set forth in the NYSE listing standards. As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to follow our home country laws regarding shareholder approval of compensation plans. Under Dutch law such approval is only required in relation to members of the board of directors if the articles of association of a company (i.e., public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap)) stipulate that a corporate body other than the general meeting is authorized to determine the remuneration of members of the board of directors. The adoption of sub-plans under an equity incentive plan that has been approved by the general meeting does not require separate approval of the company’s general meeting, provided, however, that such sub-plans are adopted within the framework and limits of the equity incentive plan as approved by the general meeting. Approval by the general meeting is also not required in respect of equity compensation plans for employees, provided, however, that (i) such employees are no members of the board of directors and (ii) the general meeting has authorized the board of directors to issue shares and/or rights to subscribe for shares.

•We do not follow NYSE’s quorum recommendations applicable to meetings of shareholder. In accordance with Dutch law, the DCGC and generally accepted business practices in the Netherlands, the Allego Articles do not provide quorum requirements generally applicable to general meetings of shareholders is be subject to a quorum specified by Dutch law. Additionally, certain resolutions require an enhanced majority under Dutch law if less than half of the issued share capital of Allego is present or represented at such general meeting.

•Under NYSE listing standards, shareholder approval is generally required prior to the issuance of ordinary shares (i) to a director, officer or substantial security holder of the Company (or their affiliates or entities in which they have a substantial interest) in excess of one percent of either the number of ordinary shares or the voting power outstanding before the issuance, with certain exceptions; (ii) that will have voting power or number equal to or in excess of 20% of either the voting power or the number of shares, respectively, outstanding before the issuance, with certain exceptions; or (iii) that will result in a change of control of the issuer. We are exempt from the aforementioned NYSE requirements and under Dutch law and the Allego Articles, shareholders can delegate authority to issue ordinary shares to the board of directors at an annual

ITEM 16K.    CYBERSECURITY

Cybersecurity risk management and strategy

We maintain a cybersecurity risk assessment program and framework as set forth in our cybersecurity policies and standards. We have designed our security program around the International Organization for Standardization International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) 27001 standard on a strategic and tactical level. This does not imply that we meet any particular technical standards, specifications, or requirements, only that we use the ISO/IEC standard as a guide to help us identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks relevant to our business. Additionally, in furtherance of identifying, assessing, and managing material cybersecurity risks, we:

•Perform risk assessments designed to help identify material cybersecurity risks to our critical systems, information, products, services, and our broader enterprise information technology ("IT") environment, including those related to use of external cyber security partners. This risk management process consists of risk assessments for identification and decisions on risk treatment strategies with related risk treatment plans. All risks identified in this process are registered in Allego’s Risk Register;

•Perform regular internal assessments of our cybersecurity program against the -ISO/IEC 27001 standard. The results of these assessments are then reviewed and, based on such findings, action plans are developed and progress tracked through completion;

•Maintain security teams principally responsible for managing (1) our cybersecurity risk assessment processes, (2) our security controls, and (3) our response to cybersecurity incidents;

•Analyze cybersecurity incidents to determine applicability to our environment and industry. Findings from such analyses are then reviewed and utilized to create action plans where applicable and relevant to our environment and industry;

•Perform regular cybersecurity awareness trainings for our employees, and senior management; and

•Implemented a cybersecurity incident response plan that includes procedures for responding to cybersecurity threats.

The risk management process also includes third party risk assessments for third party service providers (e.g. Microsoft Azure Cloud and so-called Software as a Service providers). For this we have a Vendor Information Security Questionnaire (VISQ) which is being performed when introducing a new third-party service provider. Through contractual agreements, we will also monitor compliance with our cybersecurity requirements periodically. With respect to our third-party risk management processes, we employ third-party due diligence, onboarding, and other procedures designed to assess the data protection, data privacy, and cybersecurity practices of third-party service providers, suppliers and vendors. However, our ability to monitor or control such practices is limited and there can be no assurance that we can detect, prevent, mitigate, or remediate the risk of any weakness, compromise, or failure in the systems, networks, and information owned or controlled by such third parties. When we become aware that a third-party service provider, supplier, or vendor has experienced any compromise or failure, we attempt to mitigate our risk, including by terminating such third party’s connections to our systems, networks and information where appropriate.

We have not identified any risks from known cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any prior cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our operations, business

strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. See also “Item 3. Risk Factors—D. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Allego's Technology, Intellectual Property and Infrastructure—Allego may need to defend against intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claims, which may be time consuming and expensive,” “—Allego’s business may be adversely affected if it is unable to maintain, protect or enforce its rights in its technology and intellectual property,” and “—Computer malware, viruses, ransomware, hacking, phishing attacks and similar disruptions could result in security and privacy breaches and interruption in service, which could harm Allego’s business.”

Cybersecurity governance

Our Board of Directors has ultimate oversight for risks relating to our cybersecurity program and practices and receives regular updates from our internal cybersecurity teams on cybersecurity risks and threats.

In addition, our Audit Committee provides Board-level oversight for management’s actions with respect to organization and global strategy used to identify, assess and manage our key cybersecurity programs and risks. The Audit Committee receives regular reports from management on our cybersecurity risks, including, as necessary, any updates on material cybersecurity incidents, as well as any incidents with lower impacts.

Our management team, including our Information Security team and IT management team, is responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats. The team has primary responsibility for our overall cybersecurity risk management program and supervises both our internal cybersecurity personnel and our related external cyber security partners. Our management team takes steps to stay informed about and monitor the identification, prevention, detection, protection, mitigation, and remediation of key cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings with internal cybersecurity team members and external consultants, threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, and alerts and reports that are generated by security tools deployed in the information systems’ environments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Allego N.V.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Allego N.V. (the Company) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2.2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, has a potential breach of its debt covenants and has stated that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management's evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2.2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1    Reporting Entity

Allego N.V. (“Allego” or the “Company”) was incorporated as a Dutch private limited liability company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) on June 3, 2021 under the laws of the Netherlands, under the name of Athena Pubco B.V.

On March 16, 2022, Athena Pubco B.V. changed its legal form from a private limited liability company to a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap), changed its name to Allego N.V. and entered into the Deed of Conversion containing the Articles of Association of Allego N.V. Allego N.V. consummated the previously announced business combination (“the SPAC Transaction”) with Spartan Acquisition Corp. III (“Spartan”) pursuant to the terms of the business combination agreement (“BCA”) and became a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The public company — Allego N.V. — trades under the Allego name with the ticker “ALLG”. The Company’s registered seat and head office are in Arnhem, the Netherlands. Its head office is located at Westervoortsedijk 73 KB, 6827 AV in Arnhem, the Netherlands. The Company is registered with the Dutch Trade Register under number 82985537.

The Company’s main activity is enabling electrification through designing, building and the operation of charging solutions for electric vehicles in Europe. The Company services corporate customers with the long-term operation of comprehensive charging solutions. The Company’s goal is to offer the best EV charging experience with end-to-end charging solutions through different charging products (e.g. slow, fast, ultra-fast charging) in combination with our EV Cloud platform and additional service support. The majority of the Allego N.V. shares are held by Madeleine which is an indirectly controlled subsidiary of Meridiam SAS (“Meridiam”) – a global investor and asset manager based in Paris, France. Meridiam specializes in the development, financing and long-term management of sustainable public infrastructure in the mobility, energy transition and social infrastructure sectors.

These financial statements are consolidated financial statements for the group consisting of Allego N.V. and its subsidiaries (jointly referred to as the “Group” or “Allego Group”). Further disclosure on why the Company’s consolidated financial statements include comparative information for transactions occurring during the year ended December 31, 2021, despite the Company only being incorporated on June 3, 2021, is provided in Note 2 and Note 3. Allego’s principal subsidiaries are listed in Note 37.

2    Material accounting policies

This section provides an overview of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

2.1. Basis of preparation

2.1.1 Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRS IC”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The consolidated financial statements were prepared by the Executive Board and were approved and authorized for issuance in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on May 15, 2024.

2.1.2 Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, unless otherwise stated. All amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of euros (€), unless otherwise indicated.

The Company cannot be considered a separate entity acting in its own right for the period prior to the completion of the BCA, and the economic substance of its incorporation and the holding of the shares of Allego Holding constitutes a capital reorganization of the Group subsequent to the completion of the BCA and to aid with integrating new investors. Consequently, management has concluded that Allego should recognize in its consolidated financial statements the net assets of Allego Holding and subsidiaries as per their preceding carrying amounts, and that comparative information should be represented, as the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are a continuation of those of Allego Holding and its subsidiaries.

F-10

Table of Contents

Therefore, the comparable consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the prior period from January 1, 2022, until March 16, 2022 represent the consolidated financial statements of Allego Holding and its subsidiaries.

2.2. Going concern assumption and financial position

Going concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared assuming the Group will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Group will continue in operation for a period of at least one year after the date these financial statements are issued and contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. See further discussion below.

The Group’s scale of operations

The Group’s strategy requires significant capital expenditures, as well as investments in building the Group’s organization aimed at increasing the scale of its operations. The Group incurred losses during the first years of its operations including 2023 and expects to continue to incur losses in the next twelve months from the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements. This is typical in the industry, as builders and operators of EV charging sites often incur losses in the early years of operation as the network grows and consumers begin adopting EVs. Therefore, the Group relies heavily on funding from bank financing and equity issuance. During 2022, the Group entered into a new facility agreement with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, increasing the total available facility by €230,000 thousand to €400,000 thousand, to further support its growth. Refer to the more detailed description of the terms and conditions in the Financing section below. The Group’s strategy is based on further growth and will require additional significant funding from lenders or its existing or new shareholders.

Financial position of the Group

As at December 31, 2023, the losses incurred during the first years of its operations (partially offset by equity contributions from 2022), resulted in a negative equity of €79,322 thousand. (December 31, 2022: positive €27,758 thousand) and cash and cash equivalents of €44,585 thousand (December 31, 2022: €83,022 thousand). As of December 31, 2023 an amount of approximately €39,000 thousand included in the cash and cash equivalents originated from the drawdown of the renewed facility and will be used for capital expenditures in early 2024.

The Group's operations to date have been funded by borrowings from the banks, as well as proceeds from the SPAC Transaction. In the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Group’s borrowings amounts to €350,722 thousand (December 31, 2022: €269,033 thousand). Additionally, the Group had €83,490 thousand in lease liabilities (December 31, 2022: €51,324 thousand) and €76,948 thousand in trade and other payables (December 31, 2022: €56,390 thousand).

Financing

On December 19, 2022, the Group entered into a new facility agreement (“the renewed facility”) with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, increasing the total available facility by €230,000 thousand to €400,000 thousand, to further support its growth. The renewed facility consists of (i) €170,000 thousand used to settle the old facility, (ii) up to €200,000 thousand to be used for financing and refinancing certain capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions (and for other permitted debt servicing uses) and (iii) up to €30,000 thousand to be used for issuance of guarantees and letters of credit (and when utilized by way of letters of credit, for general corporate purposes). The renewed facility expires in December 2027 and bears interest at EURIBOR plus a margin. As of December 31, 2023, the Group has not drawn on €8,390 thousand of this facility and the unutilized amount from the guarantee facility is €17,500 thousand. The Company has not drawn any further amount from the renewed facility till the date of issuance of financial statements.

The renewed facility is secured by pledges on the bank accounts (presented as part of cash and cash equivalents in Note 22 and non-current other financial assets in Note 19), pledges on trade and other receivables presented in Note 20 and pledges on the shares of its main subsidiaries in the capital of Allego Holding B.V., Allego B.V., Allego GmbH and Allego France SAS held by the Company.

Under the terms of the renewed facility, the Group is required to comply with financial covenants, including leverage ratio and interest cover ratio, at the consolidated level of Allego N.V. Historically, the Group met its covenants as per the old facility agreement. A covenant breach would negatively affect the Group’s financial position and cash flows. In the event of a covenant breach, the Group may within ten business days from the occurrence of a breach or the anticipated breach of

F-11

Table of Contents

the loan covenants remedy such default by providing evidence of receipt of new funding, sufficient to cure such breach (“equity cure right”). Such remediation is available for not more than two consecutive testing dates and four times over the duration of the renewed facility. In case the covenants breach is not cured, such a breach is considered a default and could lead to the cancellation of the total undrawn commitments and the loan to become immediately due and payable.

The compliance with covenants under the renewed facility agreement shall be tested every 6 months, with the testing period being the 12 months ending December 31 and June 30. The first testing date of the interest cover ratio was June 30, 2023, and the first testing date of the leverage ratio is June 30, 2024.

Even though the Group has complied with the covenants of the old facility and renewed facility throughout all reporting periods presented the Group is also forecasted to potentially breach the interest cover ratio and leverage ratio covenants at December 31, 2024 and the Group is dependent on obtaining additional financing to execute on its business plan. The covenant ratios are increasing every testing date until June 30, 2027 in line with this business plan.

Please refer to Note 34 for additional detail on loan covenants, and Note 25 for information on the terms and conditions of the renewed facility.

In parallel to the renewed facility, the Group entered into interest rate cap derivatives to help offset the interest rate risk on at least 65% of the outstanding loan amounts under the renewed facility. The Group has two interest rate caps in place with a notional of €240,500 thousand (December 31, 2022: two interest rate caps with a notional of €181,487 thousand) which mature in December 2027. As at December 31, 2023, the interest rate caps cover approximately 67% (December 31, 2022: 65%) of the variable loan principal outstanding. The strike price changes over time and ranges between 1.50% and 3.43%.

Interest rate risks on the remaining portion of the outstanding loan amounts, including the impact that higher interest rates would have on the Company’s going concern analysis, was included in the cash flow forecasts described below. Additional information on interest rate risk is described in Note 33.

Liquidity forecasts

Management prepares detailed liquidity forecasts and monitors cash and liquidity forecasts on a continuous basis. In assessing the going concern basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements, management estimated the expected cash flows until December 31, 2025, incorporating current cash levels, revenue projections, detailed capital expenditures, operating expense budgets, interest payment obligations, and working capital projections, as well as compliance with covenants, potential future equity raises, and availability of other financial funding from banks. The Group invests in new stations, chargers, grid connections, and potential business acquisitions only if the Group has secured financing for such investments. These forecasts reflect potential scenarios and management plans and are dependent on securing significant contracts and related revenues.

Management has performed an analysis of its liquidity forecast until December 31, 2025 and prepared a scenario that assumes capital expenditure levels based on the currently available funds, remaining undrawn portion of the renewed facility, as well as service revenue inflows derived from only existing contracts.

Under this scenario, the Group is forecasted to have sufficient available cash and liquidity but has limited headroom. The key assumptions in the analysis are related to the utilization rates of charging stations and the sales prices. These assumptions are sensitive and any adverse change in these assumptions will result in insufficient available cash and liquidity. Under this scenario the Group is also forecasted to breach the interest cover ratio and leverage ratio covenants at December 31, 2024.

In the event the Group fails to meet its loan covenants, or the Group’s forecasts prove to be inaccurate, the Group may be required to obtain additional financing, a waiver for its covenants and/or renegotiation with its current lender. The Group may not be able to negotiate on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Group is unable to raise additional capital when desired, its business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected and may no longer be able to operate as a going concern.

The Company is exploring various options to mitigate the uncertainties related to the funding to be obtained and the potential breach of its covenants by:

•obtaining additional external and shareholder funding.

•delaying capital expenditures.

•negotiating with their current lenders to obtain a covenant waiver.

•funding operations through the special purpose vehicles (i.e.asset companies) with external parties.

•securing non-committed pipeline of sales and services projects.

Please note that securing non-committed pipeline of sales and service projects does not guarantee immediate mitigation of any potential breach of financial covenants. The effectiveness of this measure is contingent upon the Company's success in

F-12

generating adequate operational EBITDA, which is unpredictable and depends on the timings and the satisfaction of various performance obligations.

As described above, long-term investments, development activities, and operations beyond December 31, 2025 will require additional financing to be obtained. Currently, no commitments exist for further growth investments. The Group will be required to seek additional financing to continue to execute its growth strategy and business plan in the long-term. The realization of such financing is inherently uncertain. Securing additional funding — by raising additional equity or debt financing — is important for the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in the long-term. However, there is no assurance that the Group will be able to raise additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

As a result of management’s forecast and the potential breach of its covenants combined with the need for additional funding, there is a material uncertainty that casts significant doubt upon the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, and therefore, whether the Group will realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the ordinary course of business at the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

Although the expectation for the coming year is that the Company will continue to have net losses and make additional investments, its cash flows from operations and renewed credit facility is expected to be sufficient until December 31, 2025 based on the Company’s forecast and the remediation options available. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Group operates on a going concern basis.

The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that would result if the Group and Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

2.3. Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Specifically, the Group controls an investee if, and only if, the Group has:

•power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee);

•exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee;

•the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

•the contractual arrangement(s) with the other vote holders of the investee;

•rights arising from other contractual arrangements;

•the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Group obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiary. Assets, liabilities, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date the Group gains control until the date the Group ceases to control the subsidiary.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the equity holders of the Company and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of financial position respectively.

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset.

The Group treats transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss of control as transactions with equity owners of the Group. A change in ownership interest results in an adjustment between the carrying amounts of the controlling and non-controlling interests to reflect their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between the

F-13

Table of Contents

amount of the adjustment to non-controlling interests and any consideration paid or received is recognized in equity and attributed to the equity holders of the Company.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities and non-controlling interest, while any resultant gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. Any retained interest in the entity is remeasured to its fair value, with the change in the carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequent accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset.

Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost, including any potential transaction costs, as of the date the significant influence was obtained. Subsequently, the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income/(loss) of the associates is included in the consolidated financial statements until the date on which the significant influence ceases. As at December 31, 2023, the Group has one associate (December 31, 2022: one, December 31, 2021: nil).

The Group discontinues applying the equity method when the investment in associates is reduced to zero. Accordingly, additional losses are not recognized unless the Group has guaranteed certain obligations of the associates. When the associates subsequently report net income, the Group resumes applying the equity method but only after its share of that net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

2.4. Principles for the consolidated statement of cash flows

The consolidated statement of cash flows is prepared based on the indirect method. The consolidated statement of cash flows distinguishes between cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. The cash items disclosed in the statement of cash flows comprise cash at bank, cash in hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, and bank overdrafts when they are considered an integral part of the Group’s cash management.

Cash flows denominated in foreign currencies have been translated at average exchange rates. Exchange differences on cash and cash equivalents are shown separately in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Group has chosen to present interest paid as cash flows from operating activities and interest received as cash flows from investing activities.

The Group has classified the principal portion of lease payments within cash flows from financing activities and the interest portion within cash flows from operating activities. The Group has classified cash flows received from operating leases as cash flows from operating activities.

2.5. Foreign currency translation

2.5.1 Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in euros (€), which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

2.5.2 Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year-end exchange rates, are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. All foreign exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within finance income/(costs).

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.

2.5.3 Translation of foreign operations

The results and financial position of foreign operations that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency of the Group are translated into the presentation currency as follows. Assets and liabilities for each statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that statement of financial position. Income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the date of transactions are used. All resulting exchange differences are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and accumulated in a foreign currency translation reserve, as a separate component in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).

When a foreign operation is sold, the associated exchange differences are reclassified to the consolidated statement of profit or loss, as part of the gain or loss on sale.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the closing rate. Exchange differences arising are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

2.6. New and amended standards

2.6.1 New and amended standards adopted by the group

A number of amended standards have been published by the IASB and are effective as of January 1, 2023, The Group did not have to change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments as a result of applying these standards and amendments because these amended standards do not have a material effect on the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023:

•IFRS 17 – Insurance Contracts. This standard does not have an impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements because the Group does not have any contracts qualifying as insurance contracts.

•Amendments to IAS 12 - International Tax Reform — Pillar Two Model Rules. This amendment will only become relevant if the Group reaches an annual turnover of at least Euro 750 million per year. The Group does not yet reach this revenue threshold and no assessment was yet performed to determine if it would be in scope via its majority shareholders. Should any of these conditions change, then the application of Pillar Two could have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial position and results of operations.

•Amendments to IAS 12 - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction. This amendment does not have an impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements

•Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Disclosure of Material Accounting Policies. The Group assessed the impact of this amendment and updated its consolidated financial statements accordingly.

•Amendments to IAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates. This amendment does not have an impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements

2.6.2 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

The new and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Group’s financial statements are disclosed below. The Group intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective.

Amendments to IAS 1 – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

The narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements clarify that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classification is unaffected by the expectations of the entity or events after the reporting date (e.g., the receipt of a waiver or a breach of covenant). The amendments also clarify what IAS 1 means when it refers to the “settlement” of a liability. In October 2022 further amendments were issued to clarify that covenants of loan agreements which an entity must comply with only after the reporting date would not affect classification of a liability of current or non-current at the reporting date. These amendments introduce additional disclosure requirements.

The amendments could affect the classification of liabilities, particularly for entities that previously considered management’s intentions to determine classification and for some liabilities that can be converted into equity. The

F-15

Table of Contents

amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 and must be applied retrospectively in accordance with the normal requirements of IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. The Group does not expect the standard to have an impact on the classification of the Group's liabilities within the consolidated financial statements, but will evaluate any additional disclosure requirements, as applicable.

Other new and amended standards and interpretations

The following new and amended standards have been published by the IASB and will become effective on or after January 1, 2024:

•Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 - Supplier Finance Arrangements

•Amendment to IFRS 16 – Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback

•Amendments to IAS 1 - Non- Current Liabilities with Covenants

•Amendments to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability

The adoption of the amendments listed above is not expected to have an impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

2.7. Summary of material accounting policies

2.7.1 Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is responsible for assessing the performance of the operating segments and allocating resources, has been identified as the Executive Board of the Group. The Executive Board consists of the chief executive officer (CEO), the chief financial officer (CFO) and the chief technology officer (CTO).

2.7.2 Business combinations

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when the acquired set of activities and assets meets the definition of a business as per IFRS 3 and control is transferred to the Group. To determine whether a particular set of activities and assets is a business, the Company assesses whether the set of assets and activities acquired includes, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process and whether outputs can be produced.

The cost of an acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the consideration transferred, which is measured at acquisition date fair value, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Group elects whether to measure non-controlling interests in the acquiree at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.

Any contingent or deferred consideration is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. If an obligation to pay contingent or deferred consideration that meets the definition of a financial instrument is classified as equity, then it is not remeasured, and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, other contingent or deferred consideration is remeasured at fair value at each reporting date and subsequent changes in the fair value of the consideration are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the Group’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

In the event of an asset acquisition, the Group applies the guidance prescribed by IFRS 3 and allocates the cost of the transaction to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values at the date of purchase with no goodwill recognized. For any identifiable asset or liability initially measured at an amount other than cost, the Group initially measures that asset or liability at the amount specified in the applicable IFRS Standard. The Group then allocates the residual transaction price to the remaining identifiable assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values at the date of the acquisition.

F-16

Table of Contents

2.7.3 Goodwill

In a business combination, goodwill is initially measured at cost (being the excess of the aggregate of the: consideration transferred, amount of non-controlling interests and the fair value of any previously interest held, over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed). After initial recognition, goodwill is not amortized but it is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Refer to the accounting policies on impairment of non-financial assets (including goodwill) in Note 2.7.15.

On disposal of an entity, the associated goodwill is included in the carrying amount of the entity when determining the gains or losses on disposal.

2.7.4 Revenue recognition

The Group recognizes revenue from the following activities:

•revenue from charging sessions;

•revenue from the sale of charging equipment to customers;

•revenue from installation services;

•revenue from the operation and maintenance of charging equipment owned by customers; and

•revenue from consulting services.

Charging sessions

Charging sessions reflect the revenues related to charging sessions at charging equipment owned by the Group. The Group acts as a charge point operator in public spaces, at consumers' homes and at companies' locations. The Group supplies electricity to owners and drivers of electric vehicles which use a charge card issued by a mobility service provider (“MSP”), credit card or a charging app to pay for these services. Charging revenue is recognized at the moment of charging, when the control of electricity is transferred to the customer. The Group is acting as a principal in charging transactions for charging equipment that is owned by the Group as it has the primary responsibility for these services and discretion in establishing the price of electricity.

The Group is considered an agent in charging transactions for charging equipment owned by third parties as the Group does not have control over electricity, the Group has to reimburse the electricity costs to EV drivers, and because the charging services to homeowners and company locations are administrative in nature.

Sale of charging equipment

The Group enters into agreements with customers for the sale of charging equipment. These contracts are development contracts with customers under which the Group purchases and installs charging equipment at the relevant locations. The Group has determined that the sale and installation of the equipment constitute two distinct performance obligations since the integration of both performance obligations is limited, the installation is relatively straight-forward and these installation services can be provided by other suppliers as well. These separate performance obligations are both sold on a stand-alone basis and are distinct within the context of the contract. When the contract includes multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. Where such stand-alone selling prices are not directly observable, these are estimated based on expected cost-plus margin.

Revenue from the sale of charging equipment is recognized at a point in time when control of the charging equipment is transferred to the customer. Depending on the terms and conditions of the contract, this can be:

•the moment when the customer has the legal title and the physical possession of the charging equipment once the delivery on premise takes place; or

•the moment when the customer has not taken physical possession of the charging equipment and the delivery on premise has not taken place, but the customer has requested the Group to hold onto the charging equipment, and has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the charging equipment.

Installation services

Revenue from installation of charging equipment is recognized over time. The Group uses an input method in measuring progress of the installation services. The input method is based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work

F-17

Table of Contents

performed to date in proportion to the total estimated costs for the services to be provided. Management considers that this input method is an appropriate measure of the progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations under IFRS 15. In case the Group cannot reliably measure progress of the installation services, the Group only recognizes revenue to the level of costs incurred.

The Group also sells charging equipment and installation services separately. In that event the same revenue recognition principles are applied as those applied for a combined sale of charging equipment and installation services.

Operation and maintenance of charging equipment

Service revenue from operation and maintenance (“O&M”) services of charging equipment owned by customers is recognized over time. Services include the deployment of the Group’s cloud-based platform to collect, share and analyze charging data as well as the maintenance of the site. Customers are invoiced on a monthly basis and consideration is payable when invoiced. The Group recognizes revenue from O&M services over time using an output method in measuring progress towards complete satisfaction of its performance obligations (straight lining the recognition of revenue over the period of the contract) as the Group believes this method faithfully depicts their performance. Any upfront billing and payments are accounted for as an advance payment.

Part of the O&M fees are variable and based on certain performance indicators related to the charging equipment, such as utilization. The Group recognizes variable consideration when the O&M fees occur.

The Group and a customer may enter into a development contract and an O&M contract at the same time. These contracts are not negotiated as a package and there are distinct commercial objectives and terms, the amount of consideration to be paid in one contract does not depend on the price or performance of the other contract and the goods or services promised in the contracts represent multiple performance obligations. Therefore, development and O&M contracts are treated as separate arrangements.

No significant element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made with a credit term of 30 days, which is consistent with market practice. Except for assurance type warranty provisions, the Group did not recognize an obligation to repair or warrant products or services as the Group does not provide any guarantee extension services.

Consulting services

The Group recognizes revenue from providing consulting services on research strategy and development of proprietary integrated tools taking the form of both software and/or hardware. Revenue from providing consulting services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Revenue is recognized over time using the input variable method as a measure of progress.

In the case of fixed-price contracts, the customer pays the fixed amount based on a payment schedule. If the services rendered by the Group exceed the payments, a contract asset is recognized. If the payments exceed the services rendered, a contract liability is recognized.

Contract assets

Fees associated with the development contracts are fixed and payable upon the achievement of milestones. If the services rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognized. Contract assets are subject to an impairment assessment. Refer to the accounting policies on impairment of financial assets in Note 2.7.17.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is recognized if a payment from the customer is received, and it precedes the satisfaction of a performance obligation by the Group. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract (i.e., transfers control of the related goods or services to the customer).

2.7.5 Cost of sales

Cost of sales represents the electricity cost for the charging revenues, which is billed to the Group by utility companies, including the electricity purchased under all PPA contracts, maintenance costs, depreciation expense related to charging equipment and charging infrastructure, and amortization expense related to the EV Cloud platform. Cost of sales related to development contracts consists of the cost of charging equipment and the third-party service cost for the installation services including the establishment of the grid connection. Cost of sales related to the O&M contracts mainly consists of the third-party service cost (such as costs incurred for monitoring the state of charging poles, cleaning of charging poles, data-related costs). These expenses are recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

F-18

Table of Contents

2.7.6 Other income/(expenses)

The Group recognizes other income/(expenses) from the following sources:

•sale of CO2 tickets issued by government (for example, “HBE certificates” or hernieuwbare brandstofeenheden in the Netherlands and similar schemes in Germany and France);

•government grants;

•disposal of property, plant and equipment;

•sublease rental income;

•fair value gains/(losses) on derivatives (power purchase agreements, purchase options);

•fair value gains/(losses) on preference shares derivatives and net gain/(loss) on sale of preference shares derivatives; and

•other items.

For CO2 tickets issued by governments IAS 20 Accounting for government grants and disclosure of government assistance is applicable. CO2 tickets are initially recognized at fair value as inventory (refer to the accounting policies on inventories in Note 2.7.16). Other income from the sale of CO2 tickets (for example, HBE certificates in the Netherlands and similar schemes in Germany and France) includes both the fair value gain on initial recognition and the gain or loss on the subsequent sale.

The accounting policy for government grants is disclosed in Note 2.7.7. The accounting policy for the disposal of property, plant and equipment is disclosed in Note 2.7.12. The accounting policy for sublease rental income is disclosed in Note 2.7.14, section “Group as a lessor”. The accounting policy for the fair value gains and losses on the purchase options derivatives is disclosed in Note 2.7.17.

Other items mainly relate to reimbursements that the Group has received from one of its suppliers for chargers. See note 7.

2.7.7 Government grants

Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and that the Group will comply with all attached conditions. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. Income from government grants is recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss as other income/(expenses).

When the grant relates to an asset, the carrying amount of the related asset is reduced with the amount of the grant. The grant is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss over the useful life of the depreciable asset by way of a reduced depreciation charge.

Grants relating to assets relate to the Group’s chargers and charging infrastructure. Refer to Note 15 for details.

2.7.8 General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses relate to the Group’s support function and mainly comprise employee benefits, depreciation of right-of-use assets, IT costs, housing and facility costs, travelling costs, fees incurred from third parties and other general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when incurred.

2.7.9 Selling and distribution expenses

Selling and distribution expenses relate to the Group’s sales function and mainly comprise employee benefits, amortization costs, marketing and communication costs, housing and facility costs, travelling costs and other selling and distribution expenses. Selling and distribution expenses are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when incurred.

2.7.10 Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits include wages, salaries, social security contributions, annual leave, including paid time-off, accumulating sick leave and non-monetary benefits and are recognized as an expense as the related services are provided

F-19

Table of Contents

by the employee to the Group. Liabilities for short-term employee benefits that are expected to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period are recorded for the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Pensions and other post-employment obligations

Pension plans

The Group operates various pension plans, including both defined benefit and defined contribution plans, for its employees in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Norway and Sweden. To the employees in France, both pension plan and a statutory end-of-service benefit applies. The plans are generally funded through payments to insurance companies or trustee-administered funds as determined by periodic actuarial calculations.

Defined benefit plans

The liability or asset recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method.

The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms approximating to the terms of the related obligation. In countries where there is no deep market in such bonds, the market rates on government bonds are used.

The net interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net balance of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of plan assets. This cost is included in employee benefit expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Remeasurement gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the period in which they occur, directly in other comprehensive income. They are included in accumulated deficit in the consolidated statement of changes in equity and in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the Group pays contributions to publicly or privately administered pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual or voluntary basis. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognized as employee benefit expenses when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

Other long-term employee benefits

The Group operates a jubilee plan for certain employees in the Netherlands, for which the Group records a provision. The provision is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting period, using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service.

Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period of high-quality corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Interest cost is calculated by applying the discount rate to the expected future payments. This cost is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within finance income/(costs).

Remeasurements as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognizes termination benefits at the earlier of the following dates: (a) when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of those benefits; and (b) when the Group recognizes costs for a restructuring that is within the scope of IAS 37 and involves the payment of terminations benefits. In the case of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to present value.

2.7.11 Share-based payment

2.7.11.1 Second special fees agreement

A second share-based payment arrangement is provided to an external consulting firm via a second special fees agreement (the "Second Special Fees Agreement") (compared to the First Special Fees Agreement entered into in December 2020). Information relating to this agreement which was originally between the Company’s immediate parent entity — Madeleine — and the consulting firm is set out in Note 11.2. The fair value of the share-based payment arrangement granted under the Second Special Fees Agreement is recognized as an expense, with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit as long as the agreement remained in place between Madeleine and the consulting firm. The Second Special Fees Agreement was novated from Madeleine to the Company during the reporting period and as a result, the fair value of the share-based payment arrangement granted under the Second Special Fees Agreement is recognized as an expense, with corresponding movements in the provision recognized as part of the novation. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, including market performance conditions. The fair value excludes the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions.

IFRS 2 requires the total expense to be recognized over the vesting periods, which are the periods over which all of the specified service and non-market vesting conditions are to be satisfied. For the Second Special Fees Agreement the expenses are recognized over the service periods (from the grant date until each forecasted equity injection, refer to Note 3.1.2). The Group shall revise its estimate of the length of the vesting periods, if necessary, if subsequent information indicates that the length of the vesting period differs from previous estimates. This may result in the reversal of expenses if the estimated vesting periods are extended.

2.7.11.2 Management Incentive Plan

The share-based payment arrangement in place related to the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) includes two types of options that can be issued to the key management personnel: the grant options and the performance options. The options issued under the plan are classified as equity-settled share-based payment transactions, as the settlement with the participants shall be made using the company’s shares, as such they fall in scope of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment from the perspective of the Group and accounted for in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

The grant date fair value of grant options (options subject to the expiry of a blocking period of 18 months) is recognized as an operating expense with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit. The fair value is determined at the grant date and the total expense is recognized immediately since the participants are not required to complete a specified period of service period before becoming unconditionally entitled to these equity instruments.

The grant date fair value of the performance options (options subject to predefined performance conditions and the expiry of the blocking period) is recognized as an operating expense with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit. The fair value is determined at the grant date and the total expense is recognized over the relevant service period, which is concluded to start on March 17, 2022 (the date at which the Group became a listed entity) as at that date there was a valid expectation of an award and a corresponding obligation by the Group, and end on September 18, 2023 (the end of vesting period). At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises the expense for the services received based on the non-market vesting and service conditions. The impact is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss with the corresponding increase in accumulated deficit.

The grant options and performance options do not include any market conditions or non-vesting conditions that should be included in their fair value. The grant date fair value remains the same over time. The number of shares expected to vest is estimated based on the non-market vesting conditions.

When the options are exercised, the Group transfers the appropriate number of shares to the employee. The proceeds received, net of any directly attributable transaction costs, are credited directly to equity. Where options are forfeited due to a failure by the employee to satisfy the service conditions, any expenses previously recognized in relation to such shares are reversed effective from the date of the forfeiture.

It is possible for the Group to net settle the options for (i) withholding taxes and (ii) the exercise price. This will result in classification of all the options as equity-settled since IFRS 2 includes an exception to the general principles for classification as cash-settled when an employer withholds awards due to a mandatory requirement to settle a tax exposure on behalf of an employee which is applicable to the Group.

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model and making assumptions about them. As the exercise price applicable to the options under the Company's Management Incentive Plan is negligible, no specific option-pricing models are used by the Company and the

F-21

Table of Contents

fair value of options granted is determined by reference to the fair value of the Company’s share at the grant date, excluding the impact of any service and non-market performance vesting conditions. At the end of each period, the Group revised its estimates of the number of options that are expected to vest based on the service conditions and non-market conditions, with the final revision made in December 2023, when all options vested.

2.7.11.3 Other share-based payment plans

The share-based payment arrangement in place related to the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") qualifies as equity settled share-based payments in accordance with IFRS 2. As mentioned in Note 11.4, as part of Allego´s incentive plans, certain eligible members of the Board of Directors, Executive Committee and employees were granted Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs"), performance based share options ("LTIP Performance Options"), Company ordinary shares ("IPO Grant Shares") and special options ("LTIP Special Options"), based on the Company's internal performance evaluation framework.

The grant date fair value is recognized as an operating expense with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit. The fair value is determined at the grant date and the total expense is recognized over the vesting period, being the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are satisfied. For all awards the service period is concluded to start on the date when there was a valid expectation of an award and a corresponding obligation by the Group. The RSUs awarded to employees and the LTIP Performance Options awarded to executive officers are recognized over the relevant service period (three years for RSUs to employees and two to three years for LTIP Performance Options starting from grant date). For the LTIP Special Options, IPO Grant Shares and the RSUs awarded to eligible members of the board of directors, there are no vesting conditions, the vesting date being the grant date and the expenses are recognized immediately. At the end of each reporting period, the Group revises the expense for the services received based on the vesting conditions. The impact is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss with the corresponding increase in accumulated deficit.

The RSUs, LTIP Performance Options, IPO Grant Shares, and LTIP Special Options do not include any market conditions or non-vesting conditions that should be included in their fair value. The grant date fair value remains the same over time.

When the awards are vested, the Group transfers the appropriate number of shares to employees. Where awards are forfeited due to a failure by the employee to satisfy the service conditions, any expenses previously recognized in relation to such shares are reversed effective from the date of the forfeiture. In case of awards to a good leaver for which vesting conditions are not satisfied during the vesting period, failure to satisfy the conditions is treated as a cancellation with immediate recognition of any expense that were not previously recognized. Where an award is designated as a replacement award, any incremental fair value must be recognized over the vesting period of the replacement award. The incremental fair value is the difference between the fair value of the original award and that of the modified award, both measured at the date of modification.

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model and making assumptions about them. As the exercise price applicable to the LTIP Performance Options, RSUs, IPO Grant Shares and LTIP Special Options under the LTIP is negligible, no specific option-pricing models are used by the Company for these awards. The fair value of the awards granted under these plans is determined by reference to the fair value of the Company’s share at the grant date. At the end of each period, the Group revises its estimates of the number of LTIP Performance Options that are expected to vest based on the service conditions and non-market conditions. It recognizes the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in operating expenses, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated deficit.

2.7.12 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position at their cost. For property, plant and equipment acquired from third parties this is the acquisition cost, including costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. For internally constructed assets, cost comprises direct costs of materials, labor and other direct production costs attributable to the construction of the asset. Each item of property, plant and equipment is subsequently stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment, if any.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of any component accounted for as a separate asset is derecognized when replaced. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss during the reporting period in which they are incurred.

F-22

Table of Contents

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the asset’s use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of the asset (determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, within other income/(expenses). Occasionally, the Group sells its own chargers and/or charging equipment to a customer. In that case, the carrying value of the disposed assets are recorded within cost of sales. The proceeds of such transactions are recorded within revenue from the sale of charging equipment.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Depreciation methods and periods

The Group depreciates its property, plant and equipment using the straight-line method to allocate their cost, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their lease term and their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives used are as follows:

Asset class	Useful life
Chargers and charging infrastructure	7 – 10 years
Other fixed assets	3 – 10 years
Assets under construction	Not depreciated

Other fixed assets mainly comprise leasehold improvements, office equipment, IT assets and other fixed assets.

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

2.7.13 Intangible assets

The Group’s intangible assets consist of software, customer relationships and goodwill. Software primarily comprises the Group’s internally developed EV Cloud platform and software purchased from third parties. Customer relationships, software and goodwill resulted from the acquisition of MOMA business combination as detailed in Note 4.

Internally developed software

Internally developed software comprises the Group’s internally developed EV Cloud platform. Its cost consists of the development cost that are directly attributable to the design and testing of the EV Cloud platform, which is controlled by the Group.

Development costs are capitalized as software if the following criteria are met:

•It is technically feasible to complete the software so that it will be available for use.

•Management intends to complete the software and use or sell it.

•There is an ability to use or sell the software.

•It can be demonstrated how the software will generate probable future economic benefits.

•Adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software are available.

•The expenditure attributable to the software during its development can be reliably measured.

Directly attributable costs that are capitalized as part of the software include direct costs of labor and other direct production costs attributable to the development of the software.

Capitalized development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is ready for use over its estimated useful life of three years. Following initial recognition, internally developed software is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

In determining the development costs to be capitalized, the Group estimates the expected future economic benefits of the software (component) that is the result of the development project. Furthermore, management estimates the useful life of such software (component). The Group estimates the useful life of the development costs to be at three years based on the expected lifetime of the software (component). However, the actual useful life may be shorter or longer than three years, depending on innovations, market developments and competitor actions.

F-23

Table of Contents

Research expenditure and development expenditure related to software that do not meet the criteria above are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period.

Software and licenses purchased from third parties

Software and licenses purchased from third parties comprises software and licenses for the use of platforms from third parties. Software and licenses purchased from third parties are measured on initial recognition at cost. Cost comprises the purchase price and directly attributable costs of preparing (i.e., tailoring) the software or platform for its intended use by the Group. Following initial recognition, software and licenses purchased from third parties are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Software and licenses purchased from third parties are amortized over its useful life or the duration of the license, as applicable.

Goodwill

The goodwill arisen from the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in the Group’s intangible assets. Please refer to Note 2.7.3 and Note 2.7.15 for details over the accounting policies applied in accounting for goodwill.

Customer relationships

The customer relationships were acquired as part of the acquisition of MOMA business combination (see Note 4 for details). They are recognized at their fair value at the date of acquisition and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life, which is based on the timing of projected cash flows of the contracts.

Derecognition

An intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the asset’s use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

Amortization methods and periods

The Group amortizes intangible assets with a finite useful life using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives used are as follows:

Asset class	Useful life
Software – Internally developed software	3 years
Software and licenses – Purchased from third parties	1 – 25 years
Customer relationships	16 – 17 years

The useful lives and amortization methods are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

2.7.14 Leases

Group as a lessee

The Group leases office buildings, cars, software, land permits and other assets. Other assets comprise office furniture. Rental contracts are typically agreed for fixed periods of several years. The contractual lease term of office buildings is typically set at five years but may have extension options as described below. The contractual lease term of cars is set at four years, where extensions are unusual. Software relates to the right of use of a third-party supplier’s application software. The contractual lease term of software is set at five years with a two-year extension option. The contractual lease term of land permits is set between 10 years and 15 years, where extension is depended on future performance of the sites.

Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for all identified asset classes and instead accounts for these as a single lease component.

Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

F-24

Table of Contents

Determining the right-of-use asset and lease liability

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

•fixed payments (including in-substance payments), less any lease incentives receivable;

•variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date;

•amounts expected to be payable by the Group under residual value guarantees;

•the exercise price of a purchase option if it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise that option; and

•payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising that option.

Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the lease liability.

The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the consolidated statement of profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

•the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability;

•any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received;

•any initial direct costs, and

•restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain that it will exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful life.

The right-of-use assets are also subject to impairment and are allocated to the cash-generating unit to which these assets relate. Refer to the accounting policy for impairment of non-financial assets, which is disclosed in Note 2.7.15.

Discount rate

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Group, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions. To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Group uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by the Group and makes adjustments specific to the lease (e.g., term, country, currency and security).

Leases of low-value assets and short-term leases

Low-value assets comprise small items of office furniture. The Group has not applied the practical expedient to recognize leases of low-value assets on a straight-line basis as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of twelve months or less without a purchase option. The Group has short-term building and car leases. The Group has applied the practical expedient to recognize short-term building leases, but not for short-term car leases, on a straight-line basis as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Lease term

Extension and termination options are included in a number of office buildings, software, car leases and land permits across the Group. These are used to maximize operational flexibility in terms of managing the assets used in the Group’s operations. The majority of extension and termination options held are exercisable only by the Group and not by the respective lessor.

F-25

Table of Contents

In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if it is reasonably certain that the lease will be extended (or not terminated).

For leases of offices and land permits, the following factors are normally the most relevant:

•If there are significant penalty payments to terminate (or not to extend), it is typically reasonably certain that the Group will extend (or not terminate).

•If any leasehold improvements are expected to have a significant remaining value, it is typically reasonably certain that the Group will extend (or not terminate).

•Otherwise, the Group considers other factors including historical lease durations and the costs and business disruption required to replace the leased asset.

The lease term is reassessed if an option is actually exercised (or not exercised) or the Group becomes obliged to exercise (or to not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised if a significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects this assessment, and that is within the control of the lessee.

Management applied its best estimate on the execution of renewal options and termination options, taking into account business practices within the Group in order to estimate the lease term.

The Group took contractual provisions and legal frameworks into account. In doing so, it applied legal and contractual renewal terms for leases and took into account break options (provided by contractual provisions and/or legal frameworks) in determining estimated lease terms. Lease terms at the end of their term are reviewed 18 - 24 months in advance to assess if a new term should be added.

For all seven office leases the extension options have not been included in the lease liability, because the leases either have a significant remaining non-cancellable lease term or the Group is contemplating whether that office will be suitable for the Group’s operations.

For all land permit leases, the extension options have not been included in the lease liability, because the leases either have a significant remaining non-cancellable lease term or it is not reasonably certain that the Group will extend these leases. The extension is dependent on future performance of the sites.

The determined remaining lease terms per December 31, 2023 vary in ranges of 1 up to 15 years for land permits, 1 up to 12 years for offices and other assets, and 1 up to 4 years for cars and software.

Group as a lessor

When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease commencement whether each lease is a finance lease or an operating lease. To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers to the lessee substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the case, the lease is classified as a finance lease. If this is not the case, the lease is classified as an operating lease.

As part of this assessment, the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic life of the asset and whether, at the inception date, the present value of the lease payments amounts to at least substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.

If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, the Group applies IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers to allocate the consideration in the contract.

When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head-lease and the sublease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head-lease, not with reference to the underlying asset.

Operating subleases

The Group subleases some of its leased office buildings to third parties. The contractual term of subleases of office buildings is typically set at three years but is in no event longer than the lease term of the head-lease.

Subleases may have extension and/or termination options that are typically exercisable only by the lessee and not by the Group. All subleases of the Group’s leased office buildings are classified as operating subleases.

The Group recognizes lease payments received under operating leases as income on a straight-line basis over the lease term as part of other income/(expenses).

F-26

Table of Contents

2.7.15 Impairment of non-financial assets (including goodwill)

The Group assesses at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets (“cash-generating units”). An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss in expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples or other available fair value indicators.

The Group bases its impairment calculation on most recent budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Group’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years. A long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year.

An assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset’s or CGU’s recoverable amount. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. The reversal is limited so that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its recoverable amount, nor exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Impairment of goodwill

Goodwill impairment testing is performed annually or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, which includes evaluating qualitative and quantitative factors to assess the likelihood of an impairment. These indicators include changes in the business climate, changes in management, legal factors, operating performance indicators or sale of disposal of the acquired business. The Group allocates goodwill to a group of CGU’s for the purpose of impairment testing based on such CGU's being expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. This group of CGU's is the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is allocated and monitored by Allego at the level of the operating segment, which is the Company as a whole.

The carrying amount of goodwill is compared with the recoverable amount of the group of CGU’s it was allocated to, which is the higher of the group of CGU’s value in use and its fair value less cost to sell. In case indication of impairment exists and when the Group uses a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model to determine the value-in-use, the cash flow projections contain assumptions and estimates of future expectations. This value in use is determined using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period, cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using a growth rate and the future cash flows are discounted. The value in use amount is sensitive to the discount rate used in the DCF model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.

The impairment assessment was performed for the year ended December 31, 2023, resulting in a sufficient headroom (refer to Note 16 for details), as such no impairment was identified.

Impairment of other intangible assets

During the year ended December 31, 2023 no impairment indicators were identified for other intangible assets.

2.7.16 Inventories

Finished products and goods for resale

Inventories of finished products and goods for resale are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the basis of weighted average costs. Costs of purchased inventory are determined after deducting rebates and discounts.

F-27

Table of Contents

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

CO2 Tickets (for example, HBE certificates in the Netherlands and similar schemes in Germany and France)

The Group distinguishes the CO2 Tickets issues by government (for example, HBE certificates in the Netherlands and similar schemes in Germany and France).

The Group's policy is to sell the CO2 Tickets received from the government in the ordinary course of business. These CO2 Tickets are initially recognized when the underlying electricity volumes are sold to charging customers, because at this point in time would be reasonably certain that these certificates will be received. These CO2 Tickets are initially measured at fair value, which is the initial cost of the certificates. Upon initial recognition of the certificates, the Group records a corresponding gain in other income/(expenses). They are subsequently stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs are assigned on an individual basis. Net realizable value is the average market price available at closing of the period less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale, considering the existing sales contracts. The sale of CO2 Tickets is recognized based on the agreements between the Group and the buyers. The Group recognizes the income from sale of CO2 Tickets when the control is transferred to the buyer because at this point in time the performance obligation is satisfied.

2.7.17 Financial instruments

The Group recognizes a financial asset or financial liability in its consolidated statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

Financial assets

Classification

The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

•those to be measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income with recycling of cumulative gains and losses – debt instruments (“FVOCI – debt instruments”);

•those to be measured subsequently at fair value through other comprehensive income with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition – equity instruments (“FVOCI – equity instruments”);

•those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”); and

•those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them.

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or FVOCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are “solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”)” on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, while financial assets classified and measured at FVOCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling. Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL.

The Group reclassifies debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

Initial measurement

With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at FVPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

F-28

Table of Contents

Trade receivables

Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. They are generally due for settlement within 30 days and are therefore all classified as current. Trade receivables are recognized initially at the transaction price, unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognized at fair value.

Subsequent measurement

Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (“EIR”) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.

The Group’s financial assets at amortized cost include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables and pledged bank balances included under current and non-current other financial assets.

Financial assets at FVOCI — debt instruments

For debt instruments at FVOCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (“OCI”). Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value change recognized in OCI is recycled to the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

The Group does not have debt instruments at FVOCI.

Financial assets at FVOCI – equity instruments

The Group measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Group has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to the consolidated statement of profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss as other income/(expenses) when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.

The Group’s investments in equity securities at FVOCI relate to an investment in a private company that provides distributed demand response products, which enable households to achieve energy savings. The Group has elected to present fair value gains and losses related to this equity investment in OCI, as investing in (equity) securities is not the main activity of the Group and the objective of the investment is not to hold it for trading purposes.

Financial assets at FVPL

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

This category includes interest cap derivatives which are included under non-current other financial assets. In 2022, the Group also had purchase options derivatives which were included under current other financial assets and preference shares derivatives which were included under non-current other financial assets.

Impairment

The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (“ECLs”) for all debt instruments not held at FVPL. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

Trade receivables and contract assets

The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring ECLs which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables and contract assets (if present). To measure the ECLs, trade receivables and contract assets are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. If present, the contract assets relate to unbilled work in progress and have substantially the same risk characteristics as the trade receivables for the same types of contracts. The

F-29

Table of Contents

Group has therefore concluded that the expected loss rates for trade receivables are a reasonable approximation of the loss rates for the contract assets.

The Group considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 60 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

Financial liabilities

Classification

The Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following measurement categories:

•financial liabilities at FVPL; and

•financial liabilities at amortized cost.

The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, borrowings including bank overdrafts, and derivative financial instruments.

Initial measurement

All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement

For purposes of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified in two categories:

•financial liabilities at FVPL; and

•financial liabilities at amortized cost.

Financial liabilities at FVPL

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the consolidated statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

This category includes derivative liabilities relating to Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and warrant liabilities which are presented under non-current or current liabilities, depending on their respective maturity.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost

This is the category most relevant to the Group and consists of borrowings and trade and other payables.

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year which are unpaid. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition. Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months after the reporting period. They are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method.

Borrowings

After initial recognition, borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortization is included within finance income/(costs) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

F-30

Table of Contents

Fees paid on the establishment of borrowings and commitment fees paid on the unused part of the facility are recognized as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Derivatives

The Group uses derivative financial instruments, interest rate caps to hedge its interest rate risks, derivative liabilities relating to PPAs to hedge its price risk, and warrant liabilities. Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into, and they are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The Group does not apply hedge accounting. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the Group’s derivative financial instruments are recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and are included in finance income/(costs) for interest rate caps and warrant liabilities, and in other income/(expenses) for derivative liabilities relating to PPAs.

Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

Warrant liabilities

According to management’s assessment, both the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were within the scope of IAS 32 and have been classified as a current derivative financial liability (based on the warrants being exercisable 30 days after the Closing Date of the BCA). In accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, the warrant derivatives that have been classified as financial liabilities shall be measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value to be recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

2.7.18 Fair value measurement

The Group measures financial instruments such as derivatives, debt and FVOCI equity instruments at fair value at the end of each reporting period.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability, or, in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

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

F-31

Table of Contents

•Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable.

•Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

2.7.19 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, cash at banks, and deposits held at call with financial institutions. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

2.7.20 Equity

Share capital

The Company’s share capital consists of ordinary shares, which are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Reserves

Reserves include the following:

(i)Legal reserve for capitalized development costs

A legal reserve has been recognized within equity with regard to the capitalized development costs of the Group’s internally developed EV Cloud platform in accordance with article 2:365.2 of the Dutch Civil Code. The legal reserve is reduced as the capitalized development costs are amortized. Additions and releases from the legal reserve are recorded through accumulated deficit.

(ii)Foreign currency translation reserve

The foreign currency translation reserve includes the cumulative exchange differences that result from the translation of the financial statements of the Group’s foreign operations.

(iii)Reserve for financial assets at FVOCI

The reserve for financial assets at FVOCI includes changes in the fair value of certain investments in equity securities in OCI. The group transfers amounts from this reserve to accumulated deficit when the relevant equity securities are derecognized.

2.7.21 Profit/(loss) per share

Basic profit/(loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.

Diluted profit/(loss) per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic profit/(loss) per share to take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted profit/(loss) per share if their inclusion is anti-dilutive (for example, if it would result in a lower profit/(loss) per share).

2.7.22 Provisions and contingencies

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably measured. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

F-32

Table of Contents

Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. A provision is recognized even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received, and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss net of any reimbursement.

Provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The discount rate used to determine the present value is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as interest expense, presented within finance income/(costs) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Jubilee provisions

The accounting policy for jubilee provisions is described in the employee benefits section.

Restructuring provisions

Restructuring provisions are recognized only when the Group has a constructive obligation, which is when:

•there is a detailed formal plan that identifies the business or part of the business concerned, the location and number of employees affected, the detailed estimate of the associated costs, and the timeline; and

•the employees affected have been notified of the plan’s main features.

The measurement of a restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those amounts that are both necessarily entailed by the restructuring and not associated with the ongoing activities of the business or part of the business concerned.

Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities arise when there is a:

•possible obligation that might, but will probably not require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits; or

•present obligation that probably requires an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits, but where the obligation cannot be measured reliably; or

•present obligation that might, but will probably not, require an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position, but rather are disclosed, unless the possibility of an outflow is considered remote.

Warranty provisions

A provision for estimated warranty claims is made by the Group in respect of products sold that are under warranty at the end of the reporting period. The provision is based on historical warranty data and the claims are expected to be settled in the next 2 years.

2.7.23 Income tax

The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income or tax receivable on the current period's deductible losses, based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.

Current tax

The current income tax charge/credit is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and considers whether it is probable that a taxation authority will accept an uncertain

tax treatment. The Group measures its tax balances either based on the most likely amount or the expected value, depending on which method provides a better prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty.

Deferred tax

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are carried on the basis of the tax consequences of the realization or settlement of assets, provisions, liabilities or accruals and deferred income as planned by the Group at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses. In this assessment, the Group includes the availability of deferred tax liabilities, the possibility of planning of fiscal results and the level of future taxable profits in combination with the time and/or period in which the deferred tax assets are realized.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognized for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in foreign operations where the company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at nominal value.

As at December 31, 2023, the Group recorded a deferred tax asset, which relates to the partial recognition of the carried-forward tax losses of the Group’s operations in Germany and Belgium (December 31, 2022: Germany and Belgium). The Group expects that future taxable profits will be available against which these unused tax losses can be utilized. These losses can be carried forward indefinitely and have no expiry date.

At each reporting date presented, the Group also had unused tax losses available for carryforward in other jurisdictions where the Group incurred losses in the past for which no deferred tax assets have been recognized. The Group expects that future taxable profits will be available against which these unused tax losses can be utilized before the expiry date. However, the Group has determined that, for those jurisdictions, the threshold for recognizing deferred tax assets in excess of the level of deferred tax liabilities has not been met due to history of losses and uncertainties such as the planned fiscal restructuring of the Group (e.g. the integration of the Mega-E group into the Allego group). Therefore, for those jurisdictions, deferred tax assets have been recognized to the extent that the Group has deferred tax liabilities and no additional deferred tax assets have been recognized for unused tax losses at each reporting date presented.

Management determined the (deferred) tax position of the Group using estimates and assumptions that could result in a different outcome in the tax return filed with the tax authorities and could result in adjustments in subsequent periods.

Current and deferred tax for the year

Current and deferred tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

2.7.24 Reclassification of prior year presentation

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been made to the consolidated statement of financial position and consolidated statements of cash flows for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, to reclassify non-current portion of prepaid extended warranties.

3    Significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments

The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The reported amounts that result from making estimates and assumptions, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgment in applying the Group’s accounting policies.

The significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments applied in preparing the Group’s consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as well as the Group's interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, except for those estimates, assumptions and judgments which were not considered significant as of December 31, 2023 and the new estimates, assumptions and judgments identified during the year .

3.1. Judgments

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

3.1.1 Revenue recognition

Significant judgment and estimates are necessary for the allocation of the proceeds received from an arrangement to the multiple performance obligations in a contract and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition. The Group enters into development contracts with customers that include promises to transfer multiple products and services, such as charging equipment and installation services. For arrangements with multiple products or services, the Group evaluates whether each of the individual products or services qualify as distinct performance obligations. In its assessment of whether products or services are a distinct performance obligation, the Group determines whether the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or with other readily available resources and whether the service is separately identifiable from other products or services in the contract. This evaluation requires the Group to assess the nature of the charging equipment, as well as the grid connection and installation services and how each is provided in the context of the contract.

The Group enters into development contracts for the delivery and installation of charging equipment as a bundled package related to sales and services contracts. The Group has determined that there are two separate performance obligations in these contracts. These distinct promises are (1) to deliver the charging equipment and, (2) to install the charging equipment (including the connection to the grid). The main reasons for separating these performance obligations are that these promises can be fulfilled separately with other readily available resources, and that the Group does not provide significant integration, modification or customization services related to the charging equipment.

In addition, the Group enters into development contracts related to engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") contracts. Management concluded that these contracts contain three separate performance obligations, (1) development activities, (2) delivery of charging equipment and, (3) installation of charging equipment (including the connection to the grid). The rationale for the identification of these distinct performance obligations is similar to the reasons described for sales and services contracts.

The Group also provides operation and maintenance services to its customers which include operation of the EV charging infrastructure, maintenance of the charging points, access to the Group’s EV Cloud solution, EV Cloud software updates and interface management. The Group has determined that operation and maintenance services represent two distinct performance obligations.

3.1.2 Accounting for the second Special Fees Agreement

On February 25, 2022 (‘the Second Special Fees Agreement grant date’), the Company’s then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into the Second Special Fees Agreement, with the same external consulting firm as for the First Special Fees Agreement described above. The purpose of this Second Special Fees Agreement is to compensate the external consulting firm for their continuous strategic and operational advice, as well as support with regards to the Group’s capital raising efforts in the near future. The agreement expires on the earlier of June 30, 2025, and the date on which Madeleine no longer holds any equity security in the Company. As consideration for the Second Special Fees Agreement, the external consulting firm is entitled to receive cash compensation based on the value of the Group in

F-35

Table of Contents

connection with any new injection of equity, whether in cash or in kind, in any entity of the Group subsequent to the completion of the SPAC Transaction (the “Equity Injection(s)”).

Management assessed whether the Group has received services under the Second Special Fees Agreement that requires the Second Special Fees Agreement to be accounted for in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The Second Special Fees Agreement was entered into by Madeleine and the consulting firm reports to the board of directors of Madeleine. The consulting services provided related to the Equity Injections, but also to strategic and operational advice. The Group has benefited from these services and might also benefit from Equity Injections. Although the Group does not have the obligation to settle the obligation under the Second Special Fees Agreement, management believes that the services provided under the Second Special Fees Agreement benefit the Group. Therefore, the Second Special Fees Agreement is in scope of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment from the perspective of the Group and accounted for in the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

The Group has also assessed that the total fair value of the grant should be recognized between the grant date and the estimated dates of the Equity Injections as the Second Special Fees Agreement compensates the external consulting firm for future services and creates a significant incentive for the external consulting firm to continue to provide services until the Equity Injections takes place. The Second Special Fees Agreement therefore includes an implicit future service period over which the share-based payment expenses should be recognized.

On March 10, 2022, the Second Special Fees Agreement was amended to modify the formula of the relevant percentage used in the determination of the fees payable for equity injections subsequent to the first Equity Injection. Management assessed and concluded these changes had no impact to the fair value of the grant.

On April 20, 2022, the Second Special Fees Agreement was novated from Madeleine to Allego (the “Novation”), all the other terms of the Second Special Fees Agreement remaining the same. As a result of the Novation, the Group has now the obligation, instead of Madeleine, to settle the share-based payment arrangement with the consulting firm. The Second Special Fees Agreement’s classification therefore changed to a cash-settled share-based payment arrangement from the Novation date.

Refer to Note 11.2 for further details on the accounting for the Second Special Fees Agreement.

3.1.3 Accounting for Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)

The Group signed multiple Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for the purchase of electricity from renewable sources in the Netherlands and Germany.

Significant judgment was required to assess the accounting for these PPAs, depending on the specific characteristics of the underlying agreements. The following was considered in this assessment:

• whether the agreements contain a lease (IFRS 16); or if not

• whether the agreements meet the “own use” criteria (IFRS 9).

The Group concluded that the PPAs do not contain a lease, as while the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the renewable energy assets in the PPAs, the design of the underlying renewable assets was predetermined, the operational control over the renewable assets is maintained by the suppliers, and the Group has no option to choose the timing and volumes of power production. Therefore, the Group is unable to direct the use of respective assets.

The Group further concluded that all German PPAs and some PPAs in the Netherlands entered into in the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 meet the “own use” criteria in IFRS 9, as these are physical PPAs for the purchase of renewable electricity in accordance with the expected usage requirements of the Group in these countries. As such, these agreements are accounted for as executory contracts.

The renewable electricity supplied by the remaining PPAs in the Netherlands will be sold occasionally on the spot electricity market, when the supply at particular moments in time is excessive, as such the renewable electricity supplied under these agreements does not meet the “own use” exemption in IFRS 9. As such the Group concluded that these PPAs contain an embedded derivative, being the renewable electricity supply, which is accounted for at fair value, and the host contract is treated as an executory contract.

3.2. Estimates and assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within future periods, are described below.

The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared and are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

3.2.1 Valuation of investment in equity securities

The fair value of investment in equity securities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Group used its judgment in selecting the discounted cash flow analysis as the relevant method for the investment in equity securities and makes assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period. The details of the key assumptions used and the impact of changes to these assumptions over the valuation are disclosed in Note 32.

3.2.2 Valuation of share-based payments under the second Special Fees Agreement

Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determination of the most appropriate valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model and making assumptions about them.

For the measurement of the fair value of equity-settled transactions with an external consulting firm under the Second Special Fees Agreement at the grant date (and subsequent measurement dates until the novation of the Second Special Fees Agreement to determine the fair value of consulting services received, for the portion of share-payment expenses that relates to compensation for external consulting services) and at the novation date, the Group uses a valuation model which takes into account how the fees payable in cash will depend on the equity value following future Equity Injection events. The same valuation model is used for the measurement of the fair value of cash-settled transactions with an external consulting firm under the Second Special Fees Agreement for measurement dates subsequent to the novation of the Second Special Fees Agreement.

The assumptions and model used for estimating the fair value for share-based payment transactions under the First and Second Special Fees Agreements are disclosed in Note 11.

3.2.3 Valuation of derivative liabilities relating to Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)

Estimating fair value for derivative liabilities relating to PPAs requires the most appropriate valuation methodology and involves a determination of the most appropriate inputs, and assumptions about them.

For the measurement of the fair value of these derivative liabilities at inception of the agreements (and subsequent measurement dates until the expiration of the agreements), the Group uses a discounted cash-flow model using contractual, company specific and market inputs. The electricity forward prices are among the key inputs and cannot be forecasted using observable market data for the whole duration of the contract. Other key inputs include the renewable electricity production volumes and discount rate (including the credit spread).

The assumptions and model used for estimating the fair value for derivative liabilities relating to PPAs are disclosed in Note 32.

4    Business combinations and capital reorganization

Merger between Allego Holding B.V. and Spartan Acquisition Corp. III (the "SPAC Transaction”)

On July 28, 2021, Allego Holding and Spartan signed a Business Combination Agreement ("BCA"). Prior to the SPAC Transaction, Spartan was listed on the NYSE in the United States (NYSE: SPAQ).

In connection with the merger, Athena Pubco B.V. — a private limited liability parent company (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) under Dutch law — was incorporated by Madeleine (the Company’s then immediate parent entity) on June 3, 2021. This newly incorporated entity acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Allego Holding and Spartan. As a result of the merger, Spartan ceased to exist. The Group received €146,035 thousand ($161,080

thousand1) of gross proceeds2 from a combination of a PIPE offering of €136,048 thousand ($150,000 thousand1) at €9.07 ($10.001) per share, along with €9,987 thousand ($11,080 thousand1) of cash held in trust by Spartan after redemptions. Meridiam — the existing shareholder of the Company — rolled 100% of its equity and, together with management and former advisors, retained 82% of the combined entity.

On March 9, 2022, Spartan convened a special meeting of stockholders (“the Special Meeting”). At the Special Meeting, Spartan’s stockholders approved the business combination proposal.

On March 16, 2022 (“the Closing Date”), the following transactions occurred pursuant to the terms of the BCA:

•Athena Pubco B.V. changed its legal form from a private limited liability company to a public limited liability company (naamloze vennootschap), changed its name to Allego N.V. and entered into the Deed of Conversion containing the Articles of Association of Allego N.V.

•The Group’s shareholder loans of €101,931 thousand were converted into equity.

•The Company consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the terms of the BCA and became a publicly traded company on the NYSE.

On March 17, 2022, trading in the new public company commenced on the NYSE. The new public company — Allego N.V. — trades under the Allego name under the ticker symbol “ALLG”.

The fair value of Spartan’s net assets at the Closing Date amounted to negative €71,117 thousand, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of €10,079 thousand, receivable balances of €5,185 thousand, warrant liabilities of €42,253 thousand and transaction costs liabilities of €44,128 thousand.

The fair value of the Company’s shares exchanged in the transaction to Spartan amounted to €87,597 thousand. This resulted in a difference with the net assets of Spartan of €158,714 thousand. The difference is considered as an expense and was recognized in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of profit and loss of the Group at the Closing Date, which represented the costs of service in respect of the stock exchange listing for Spartan’s shares.

Treatment of transaction costs

The total costs incurred in relation to the SPAC Transaction were analyzed to determine which were directly attributed to the issuance of new shares and therefore are to be deducted from equity directly instead of being recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. For the year ended December 31, 2022, transaction costs incurred of € nil (December 31, 2021: €1,059 thousands) were directly attributable to the issuance of new shares and have been deducted from share premium. For the year ended December 31, 2022, transaction costs incurred of €7,190 thousand (December 31, 2021: €6,145 thousand) were not directly attributable to the issuance of new shares. These transaction costs were recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within general and administrative expenses. No transaction costs were incurred in relation to the SPAC Transaction during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Impact of the SPAC Transaction on loss per share

Upon the completion of the SPAC Transaction the already existing 124 shares in Allego Holding were exchanged for 235,935,061 shares with no cash contribution being made. As such, the exchange ratio used at March 16, 2022, has been deemed to be 1,902,702.

The contribution in kind of Spartan shares modified the number of ordinary shares with a change in resources (the net assets of Spartan are new in the Allego Group and are considered a change in resources). Therefore, such new shares would impact the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding from March 16, 2022. Consequently, the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the period prior to March 16, 2022 is as follows:

	December 31, 2021
Shares for basic EPS Allego Holding	100
Exchange ratio	1,902,702
Adjusted number of shares	190,270,211

1 Translated at the EUR/USD exchange rate as at March 16, 2022.

Acquisition of Mega-E (asset acquisition)

Following the execution of the SPAC Transaction on March 16, 2022, the Group exercised its call option right to acquire Mega-E, pursuant to the terms of the Mega-E Option. The Group paid a total purchase consideration of €10,594 thousand, comprising of €9,456 thousand for the shares and €1,138 thousand for the accrued interest on the deferred purchase price. The fair value of the net assets recognized as a result of the acquisition was €67,034 thousand. The main asset acquired was property, plant and equipment, which was initially measured at cost by allocating the purchase price based on the relative fair values of the assets. Mega-E has 100% interest in its subsidiaries, except for GreenToWheel SAS (“GreenToWheel”) in which it holds an interest of 80%, resulting in a 20% Non-controlling Interest (“NCI”) which amounted to €1,259 thousand. As described in Note 3, the transaction has been accounted for as an acquisition of assets due to Mega-E not meeting the definition of a business under IFRS 3 Business Combinations.

Acquisition of MOMA (business combination)

On March 26, 2021, the Group entered into two option agreements, pursuant to which the Group was entitled to purchase shares representing 8.50% of the share capital (on a fully diluted basis) of MOMA (the "Direct MOMA Shares") and 100% of Oury-Heintz Energie Applications SA ("OHEA"), which held 42.0% of the share capital of MOMA (the "Indirect MOMA Shares"). The shareholder's agreement of MOMA includes drag-along rights, which required the Group to acquire the remaining 49.50% of MOMA's share capital upon exercising its option rights. The Group extended the option agreements on September 28, 2021, under similar terms and conditions as the original agreements.

On April 26, 2022, the Group exercised its second purchase option and drag-along rights to purchase the Direct MOMA Shares, simultaneously signing and closing the acquisition of the Indirect MOMA Shares pursuant to the exercise of the first purchase option. Consequently, on June 7, 2022, the Group closed two separate share and sale purchase agreements (the “Agreements”) to acquire shares representing 100% of the share capital of MOMA in a business combination agreement (the “MOMA Business Combination”).

The Group paid a total purchase consideration of €59,986 thousand. The fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired was €49,262 thousand, resulting in the recognition of goodwill of €10,724 thousand.

5    Segmentation

The Executive Board of the Group is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) which monitors the operating results of the business for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The management information provided to the CODM includes financial information related to revenue, cost of sales and gross result disaggregated by charging revenue and combined service revenue streams and by region. These performance measures are measured consistently with the same measures as disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. Further financial information, including net income (loss), employee expenses and operating expenses are only provided on a consolidated basis.

The CODM assesses the financial information of the business on a consolidated level. As the operating results of the business for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment are monitored on a consolidated level, the Group has one operating segment which is also its only reporting segment.

As the Group only has one reporting segment, all relevant financial information is disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.

Refer to Note 20 for details on trade receivables and the loss allowance on trade receivables and contract assets.

Significant changes in contract liabilities

The change in contract liabilities is the result of the Group’s development contract activities which started in 2019 and which have increased since then. For certain development contracts, the Group provides services exceeding the payments received from customers which result in contract assets. Conversely, the Group receives prepayments for certain development contracts which result in contract liabilities. Contract liabilities increased mainly as a result of prepayments received for development contracts with EV Cars in current and previous years for which the performance obligations have not been satisfied before the current year-end. This increase has been offset by a decrease in contract liabilities of €452 thousand for charging services provided to one of the PIPE Investors during the current year. For more information on balances with related parties, reference is made to Note 36.2.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Group entered into a strategic partnership with a PIPE Investor for future charging sessions. A portion of the cash received for the PIPE Investment was therefore accounted for as a contract liability in recognition of future services to be transferred to the customer. During the current year, the Group satisfied a portion of the performance obligation related to this contract liability and the amount recognized as charging revenue was €452 thousand. As of December 31, 2023, €2,906 thousand (December 31, 2022: €3,358 thousand) of the contract liability balance relates to this arrangement, of which €2,726 thousand is recognized as current and €180 thousand is recognized as non-current.

As at December 31, 2023, the Group expects that 76% of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations will be recognized as revenue during the next financial reporting year. The remaining 24% will be recognized in the 2025 and 2026 financial reporting years. Of the total unsatisfied performance obligations, 84% relates to service revenue from the sale of charging equipment and service revenue from installation services. The remaining portion of 16% relates to revenue from charging sessions.

Government grants

Government grants that relate to an expense item, are recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, which the grants are intended to compensate, are expensed.

Income from sale of CO2 tickets

The Group sells CO2 tickets issued by government (for example, HBE certificates in the Netherlands and similar schemes in Germany and France) to companies that are required to compensate their use of non-green energy through a brokerage. These certificates are issued by the government and therefore IAS 20 Accounting for government grants and disclosure of government assistance is applicable.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, income from the sale of CO2 tickets includes a fair value gain on initial recognition of €6,636 thousand (2022: €9,423 thousand, 2021: €5,483 thousand) and a loss on the subsequent sale of €406 thousand (2022: gain of €104 thousand, 2021: loss of €80 thousand).

Net gain/(loss) on disposal of property, plant and equipment

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group recorded a loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment of €7,970 thousand (2022: €12,528 thousand, 2021: €210 thousand). This primarily consists of the costs of upgrading HPC charger locations where old chargers were replaced with new chargers.

In 2022, the Group has waived certain potential economic rights associated with a portion of the shares held by the Group in Voltalis for a consideration of €187 thousand. The transaction resulted in an immaterial loss, which has been recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within other income/(expenses). This transaction does not affect the Group's interest held in the ordinary share capital of Voltalis.

Other items

Other items primarily consists of reimbursements that the Group has received from one of its suppliers for chargers.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group purchased a number of chargers that malfunctioned and the Group has disposed of these chargers. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group has recognized a gain of €1,400 thousand (2022: €2,250 thousand, 2021: € nil) for reimbursement received from suppliers.

Average number of employees

During 2023, 218 employees were employed on a full-time basis (2022: 163, 2021: 127). Of these employees, 94 were employed outside the Netherlands (2022: 59, 2021: 40).

Pension plans

The Netherlands

In the Netherlands, the Group voluntarily participates in the industry-wide pension fund for civil servants “ABP”. All Dutch employees are covered by this plan, which is financed by both employees and the employer. The pension benefits are related to the employee’s average salary and the total employment period covered by the plan. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

As the ABP pension plan contains actuarial risks, i.e. a recovery contribution is charged as part of the annual contribution, it does not qualify as a defined contribution plan under IAS 19 and thus qualifies as a defined benefit plan. Under IAS 19, the ABP pension plan qualifies as a multi-employer plan. The Group’s proportionate share in the total multi-employer plan is insignificant. The Group should account for its proportionate share of this multi-employer plan, which is executed by ABP. However, ABP is unwilling to provide the information to perform such an actuarial valuation to the Group. As such, the ABP plan is treated as a defined contribution pension plan for accounting purposes. The contributions are treated as an employee benefit expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when they are due. The expense recognized in relation to the ABP pension plan in 2023 was €1,142 thousand (2022: €1,290 thousand, 2021: €1,034 thousand). The contributions to the ABP pension plan for the year ending December 31, 2024 are expected to be in line with the contributions paid for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The pension plan of the Group in the Netherlands is administered by Stichting Pensioenfonds ABP (“the fund”). The most important characteristics of this pension plan are:

•The plan provides a retirement and survivor’s pension.

•The pension plan is an average pay plan.

•The retirement age depends on the AOW retirement age.

F-45

Table of Contents

•The board of the fund sets an annual contribution for the retirement pension, partner’s pension and orphan’s pension which is based on the actual funding ratio of the fund.

•If the fund holds sufficient assets, the board of the fund can increase the accrued benefits of (former) employees and retirees in line with the consumer price index for all households. This indexation is therefore conditional. There is no right to indexation and it is not certain for the longer term whether and to what extent indexations will be granted. The board of the fund decides annually to what extent pension benefits and pension benefits are adjusted.

•The board of the fund can decide to reduce the accrued benefits of (former) employees and retirees in case the funding level is below the legally required level.

The main features of the implementation agreement are:

•Participation in the ABP pension fund is mandatory for the employees of the Group.

•The Group is only obliged to pay the fixed contributions. The Group, under no circumstances, has an obligation to make an additional payment and does not have the right to a refund. Therefore, the Group has not recorded a pension liability.

The funding ratio of the fund as at December 31, 2023 was 110.5% (December 31, 2022: 110.9%, December 31, 2021: 110.2%). The policy funding ratio as at December 31, 2023 was 113.9% (December 31, 2022: 118.6%, December 31, 2021: 102.8%), which is above the required minimum of 104.0% as prescribed by De Nederlandsche Bank (DNB).

Belgium

The Group operates a defined benefit pension plan in Belgium. Statutory minimum interest rates apply to the contributions paid by employees. If in any year the pension contribution is insufficient to cover the minimum yield and if the means in the premium reserve / depot are not sufficient to finance the deficit, the employer should finance the deficit by paying an additional contribution into the depot. Therefore, the plan qualifies as a defined benefit plan under IAS 19 due to the employer’s obligation to finance the plan’s minimum guaranteed returns. These should be quantified and recognized as a liability in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position. However, given the limited number of participants, limited annual contributions of €1 thousand in 2023 (2022: € nil , 2021: €10 thousand) and as the plan started as of 2016, the current underfunding and the resulting pension liability under IAS 19 is expected to be limited. The Group estimates that the resulting pension liability is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements and therefore the Group has not recorded a pension liability for this plan in the consolidated statement of financial position. The contributions to the defined contribution pension plan in Belgium for the year ending December 31, 2024 are expected to be in line with the contributions paid for the year ended December 31, 2023.

France:

Description of plans

A retirement indemnity plan (‘Indemnités de fin de carrière’) applies to the Group’s employees in France, which qualifies as another post-employment benefit under IAS 19. The retirement benefit depends on the number of service years within the industry and the Group. The benefit equals 1/4th of the average monthly salary for the first ten years of seniority and 1/3rd of the average monthly salary for the service years thereafter. Contributions for the retirement indemnity plan are obligations from past events with a probable outflow for which reliable estimates can be made. The Group should therefore record a provision for these obligations on its consolidated statement of financial position. The plans are not funded, as there is no mandatory minimum funding requirement for this scheme. The Company does not have plan assets, therefore there is no allocation of plan assets disclosed.

The next table provides a summary of the changes in the defined benefit obligations in France.

Actuarial assumptions

The principal actuarial assumptions at the reporting dates are:

(in %)	2023		2022
Discount rate	3.1% - 3.2%		2.5% - 3.7%
Wage inflation	3.0	%	2.5	%
Turnover	5.3% - 20.1%		5.6% - 16.8%

The discount rate is based on yields on AA-rated high-quality bonds, with durations comparable to the duration of the pension plan’s liabilities. Based on the assumptions described in this note.

Sensitivity analysis

The calculation of the defined benefit obligation is sensitive to, amongst others, the discount rate, rate of inflation and changes in life expectancy. In 2023, the sensitivity analysis was as follows:

(In %)	-0.5%		+0.5%
Discount rate	5.5	%	(5.0)	%
Salary increases	(5.0)	%	5.4	%
Turnover rates	1.1	%	(1.1)	%

The above sensitivity analyses are based on a change in an assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to significant actuarial assumptions the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as when calculating the defined benefit liability recognized in the balance sheet.

Other countries

The Group solely operates defined contribution plans in Germany, United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. The Group’s legal or constructive obligation for these plans is limited to the Group’s contributions. The expense recognized in relation to these defined contribution pension plans was €79 thousand in 2023 (2022: €67 thousand, 2021: €75 thousand). The contributions to these defined contribution pension plans for the year ending December 31, 2024 are expected to be in line with the contributions paid for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Other long-term employee benefits:
The Netherlands

Jubilee plan

The Group operates a jubilee plan for all active employees under the Dutch collective labor agreement (CLA) for energy networking companies (CAO NWb). The most recent actuarial valuations of the present value of the long-term employee benefits were carried out as at December 31, 2023. The valuation is carried out with a discount rate of 3.3% (December 31, 2022: 3.6%), an expected rate of salary increase of 2.5% (December 31, 2022: an increase of 2.5%) and a retirement age of 68 years (December 31, 2022: 68 years). The provision recorded in the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position amounts to €35 thousand as at December 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: €26 thousand).

The amounts recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position and the movements in the jubilee provision over all reporting periods presented, are as follows:

(in €‘000)	2023	2022
Jubilee provision – Opening	26	73
Current service cost	5	11
Interest cost	1	—
Remeasurements	3	(58)
Total amount recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss	9	(47)
Benefit payments	—	—
Jubilee provision – Closing	35	26

Senior leave plan

Additionally, the Group operates a senior leave plan for its employees in the Netherlands. As the amount of benefits (i.e. additional leave) provided under the plan is limited, the Group does not contract any additional hours to replace the respective employees. In addition, only a limited number of employees is entitled to seniority leave as of December 31, 2023. The Group estimates that the resulting liability is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements and therefore the Group has not recorded a pension liability for this plan in the consolidated statement of financial position.

11    Share-based payments

11.1. First Special Fees Agreement

The First Special Fees Agreement was terminated in connection with the Business Combination in 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group recognized share-based payment expenses of € nil (2022: €67,621 thousand, 2021: €291,837 thousand) for this equity-settled arrangement, with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit. As the share-based payment expenses reflect both compensation for external consulting services and key management remuneration, during the year ended December 31, 2023 the Group has recognized share-based payment expenses for an amount of € nil (2022: €46,433 thousand, 2021: €202,201) as legal, accounting and consulting fees, and share-based payment expenses for an amount of € nil (2022: €21,188 thousand, 2021: €89,636 thousand) has been recognized as employee benefits expenses, both within general and administrative expenses.

11.2. Second Special Fees Agreement

On February 25, 2022, the Allego Holdings' then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into the Second Special Fees Agreement with the same external consulting firm as for the First Special Fees Agreement. The purpose of this Second Special Fees Agreement is to compensate the external consulting firm for their continuous strategic and operational advice, as well as support with regards to Allego’s fundraising efforts in the near future. The agreement ultimately expires on the earlier of June 30, 2025, and the date on which Madeleine would no longer hold any equity security in Allego. As consideration for the Second Special Fees Agreement, the external consulting firm is entitled to receive cash compensation

F-48

Table of Contents

based on the value of the Group in connection with any new injection of equity, whether in cash or in kind, in any entity of the Group subsequent to the Business Combination (each, an “Equity Injection”).

On March 10, 2022, the Second Special Fees Agreement was amended to modify the formula of the relevant percentage used in the determination of the fees payable (the “Relevant Percentage”) for equity injections subsequent to the first Equity Injection.

The Group accounts for the Second Special Fees Agreement as a share-based payment since the Group obtained services from the consulting firm in exchange for cash amounts based on the equity value of the Company. Madeleine, instead of the Group, had the obligation to settle the share-based payment arrangement with the consulting firm. The Second Special Fees Agreement was therefore classified as an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement. On April 20, 2022, the Second Special Fees Agreement was novated from Madeleine to Allego (the “Novation”), with all the other terms of the Second Special Fees Agreement remaining the same. As a result of the Novation, Allego now has the obligation, instead of Madeleine, to settle the share-based payment arrangement with the consulting firm. The Second Special Fees Agreement’s classification therefore changed to a cash-settled share-based payment arrangement from the Novation date.

Certain directors and officers of the Company are entitled to compensation from the external consulting firm in the form of a fixed percentage of the total benefits that the external consulting firm will generate under the Second Special Fees Agreement, including any amendments. The share-based payment expenses for the Second Special Fees Agreement therefore reflect both compensation for external consulting services and key management remuneration.

Measurement of fair value as an equity-settled plan

In accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, the fair value of key management remuneration under an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement is measured by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the grant date. The fair value determined at the grant date is not subsequently adjusted.

As the value of the services provided by the consulting firm is not directly related to the time incurred by the consultants, management considers that the fair value of the services cannot be measured reliably. Therefore, the fair value of the services received under the Second Special Fees Agreement are measured by reference to the fair value of the share-based payment arrangement offered as consideration, as the Group obtains these services. The Group applies an approach where the average fair value over the reporting period is used to determine the fair value of the services received.

Since the Second Special Fees Agreement includes an implicit service condition, the services received under the Second Special Fees Agreement are recognized as expenses over the period in which the Company expects to have the Equity Injections, therefore between February 25, 2022 (the "grant date”) and the dates of the Equity Injections by reference to the fair value of the share-based payment arrangement measured at the grant date (for key management remuneration) or the average fair value over the reporting period (for external consulting services).

Measurement of fair value as a cash-settled plan

Following the Novation, the Second Special Fees Agreement was classified as a cash-settled plan as opposed to an equity-settled plan. Therefore, in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, the fair value of both the key management remuneration and the services provided by the consulting firm under a cash-settled share-based payment arrangement is measured by reference to the fair value of the share-based payment arrangement offered as consideration, as the Group obtains these services. The fair value of the liability is recognized over the service period.

In effect, IFRS 2 Share-based Payment provides that the cumulative amount recognized as the expense over the life of the Second Special Fees Agreement is the grant-date fair value plus or minus any subsequent changes in fair value after the change in classification. Therefore, the cumulative amount may be less than the original grant-date fair value.

Fair value of equity instruments granted

The fees payable under the Second Special Fees Agreement will depend on the future value of the Allego Group following each future Equity Injection. Since there is no market price for the services, to measure the fair value of this instrument under IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, the future value of the Allego Group for the Equity Injection has been derived from a weighted average valuation model in which that value can be simulated based on various amounts and expected dates of Equity Injection events, and taking into account the likelihood of Equity Injections to happen, as well as the expected price per share upon Equity Injection.

The total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement as at December 31, 2023 is estimated at €38,583 thousand (2022: €33,481 thousand). The increase in fair value of the share-based payment arrangement is mainly driven by an increase in the probability and expected amount of the Equity Injection events.

F-49

Table of Contents

The Group recognized a share-based payment provision related to the Second Special Fees Agreement of €26,894 thousand as of December 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: €16,806 thousand), of which an amount of €16,677 thousand (December 31, 2022: €16,806 thousand) is recognized as a current liability, and an amount of €10,217 thousand (December 31, 2022: € nil) is recognized as a non-current liability in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Share-based payment expenses

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group recognized total share-based payment expenses with respect to the Second Special Fees Agreement of €10,088 thousand (2022: €17,393 thousand, 2021: € nil). As share-based payment expenses for the Second Special Fees Agreement reflect both compensation for external consulting services and key management remuneration, the Group has recognized share-based payment expenses for an amount of €6,607 thousand (2022: €11,712 thousand , 2021: € nil ) as legal, accounting and consulting fees and share-based payment expenses for an amount of €3,480 thousand (2022: €5,681 thousand , 2021: € nil ) has been recognized as employee benefit expenses, both within general and administrative expenses. These share-based payment expenses were recognized with a corresponding increase in liability for the year ended December 31, 2023, and for the period after the novation during the year ended December 31, 2022. For the period before the novation during the year ended December 31, 2022, these share-based payment expenses were recognized with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit.

11.3. Management Incentive Plan

The establishment of the company’s management incentive plan ("MIP") was approved by the board of directors on April 20, 2022. The MIP is designed to provide long-term incentives for key management employees to deliver long-term shareholder returns, and includes two types of granted options: the right to acquire a percentage of the Company's issued share capital immediately following the listing, subject to the expiry of a blocking period of 18 months (the “MIP Grant Options”), and the right to acquire a percentage of the Company's issued share capital immediately following the listing, subject to predefined performance conditions and the expiry of the blocking period (the “MIP Performance Options”). The granted options carry no dividend or voting rights. The options do not include any market conditions or non-vesting conditions that should be included in the fair value at recognition.

Under the plan, the MIP Grant Options vest immediately, and the MIP Performance Options only vest if certain performance standards are met. Participation in the plan is at the board of directors’ discretion, and no individual has a contractual right to participate in the plan or to receive any guaranteed benefits.

The amount of MIP Performance Options that will vest depends on the group’s performance, including operational EBITDA, financing targets, compliance and reporting, engagement with investors, and the minimum service period of the employees. Once vested, the granted options remain exercisable for a period of ten years following the end of the blocking period, which ends on September 18, 2023, for the MIP Grant Options and ten years from the grant date (May 14, 2022) for the MIP Performance Options.

In April 2023, one non-market performance condition included in the original MIP agreement was modified, together with its respective service period, to be applied to the group's performance over financial year 2023 instead of 2022. For the MIP performance options the blocking period was extended to April 30, 2024. The exercise period is ten years following the end of the blocking period. The exercise period and blocking period end date remain unchanged for the other MIP Performance Options. These changes result in an increased number of awards being expected to vest but do not have an impact on the fair value of the options.

On December 29, 2023, all MIP Options were modified to expire on June 30, 2024. Furthermore, the MIP Performance Options based on the modified MIP agreement were further modified to vest immediately. These modifications occurred as part of an approach towards retention of employees. These modifications do not result in a change in the number of awards expected to vest, but results in an earlier vesting date and an accelerated expense recognition for the MIP Performance Options based on the modified MIP agreement. As a result, these modifications do not have an impact on the fair value of the options.

The exercise price of the granted options under the plan is €0.12 per option. When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share of the Company.

Set out below are summaries of MIP Grant Options and MIP Performance Options granted under the plan:

Options	Grant date	Vesting date	Expiry date	Exercise price (in €)		Share options December 31, 2023
MIP Grant Options	May 14, 2022	September 18, 2023	June 30, 2024	€	0.12	1,329,213

Total						2,658,426

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding at the end of period is 0.50 years.

For the year ended December 31, 2023 the total expenses arising from the MIP transactions recognized during the period as part of employee benefit expense was €6,242 thousand (2022: €14,361 thousand, 2021: € nil ). This includes an amount of €2,575 thousand (2022: € nil , 2021: € nil ) related to the additional expense recognized as a result of the modification of the MIP agreement.

Fair value of options granted

There were no options granted during the year ended December 31, 2023 in relation to the MIP. The assessed fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2022, was €7.75 per option (December 31, 2021: no options granted) for both the MIP Grant Options and MIP Performance Options.

The fair value was determined as the share price of the Company’s ordinary shares on grant date of $8.17 (€7.873), determined as the closing price on May 13, 2022 (the last working day preceding the grant date), less the exercise price of €0.12.

No specific option-pricing model (e.g., Black-Scholes) was applied for the valuation, as in the situation when the exercise price applicable to the options is negligible, the calculated fair value of an option is close (or equal) to the value of an ordinary share less the exercise price, regardless of the other input parameters applied in the option valuation.

As the options do not include any market conditions or non-vesting conditions that has an impact on the fair value and there is no adjustment for dividends, the grant date fair value of both MIP Grant Options and MIP Performance Options was determined using the same approach.

11.4. Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Allego Board and the Compensation Committee approved the general framework for the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") on the Closing Date. The purpose of the LTIP is to provide eligible directors and employees the opportunity to receive stock-based incentive awards for employee motivation and retention and to align the economic interests of such persons with those of Allego’s shareholders. The delivery of certain shares or other instruments under the LTIP to directors and key management are agreed and approved in certain Allego Board meetings. On December 20, 2022, the Allego Board approved a detailed plan for the LTIP for future years.

Performance Based Share Options

As it relates to the LTIP for Allego executive officers, performance based share options may be granted annually and would be exercisable after a contractual vesting period of two to three years. The number of LTIP Performance Options issued under the LTIP is based on four equally-weighted performance criteria: revenue, operational EBITDA, renewable GWh delivered, and appreciation at the discretion of the board of directors. The targets for the performance criteria are set annually by the Compensation Committee.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, LTIP Performance Options were granted to executive officers based on company performance in financial years 2022 and 2023. The LTIP Performance Options based on company performance in financial year 2022 have a contractual vesting period of two years, and the target number of options awarded was determined and set at grant date in line with the known level of completion of the performance criteria for that financial year. In addition, Allego granted LTIP Performance Options based on company performance in financial year 2023 with a contractual vesting period of three years, and the target number of options awarded was determined based on a target level of completion of 100% of the performance criteria for that financial year (to be adjusted according to actual level of completion of performance criteria).

On December 29, 2023, the LTIP Performance Options based on company performance in financial year 2022 were modified for one of the executive officers to vest immediately, with the expiry date being June 30, 2024. This modification does not result in a change in the number of awards expected to vest, but results in an earlier vesting date and an accelerated expense recognition. As a result, this modification does not have an impact on the fair value of the options.

On December 29, 2023, LTIP Performance Options based on company performance in financial year 2023 for one of the executive officers were cancelled as part of a package of an approach towards retention of employees.

The exercise price of the LTIP Performance Options granted under the LTIP is €0.12 per option. When exercised, each LTIP Performance Option is convertible into one ordinary share of the Company.

Set out below is a summary of the target number of LTIP Performance Options granted under the plan:

	2023
	Average exercise price per LTIP Performance Option (in €)	Target number of LTIP Performance Options

As at December 31	0.12	2,220,341
Vested and exercisable at December 31	0.12	341,377

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company granted two types of LTIP Performance Options: 1,039,222 options based on financial year 2022 company performance and 1,758,841 options based on financial year 2023 company performance. The target number of options granted based on financial year 2022 company performance is final, subject to meeting the service condition of two years. The target number of options granted based on financial year 2023 company performance is based on a target level of completion of 100% of the performance criteria for that financial year (actual level of completion not known at the time of grant date). During the year ended December 31, 2023, 577,722 LTIP Performance Options based on financial year 2023 company performance were cancelled.

As of December 31, 2023, 341,377 LTIP Performance Options based on performance in financial year 2022 vested and became exercisable as a result of the modification for one of the executive officers.

The number of LTIP Performance Options based on financial year 2023 company performance expected to vest is estimated to be 723,384 options in accordance with the expected level of completion of performance criteria as at December 31, 2023.

LTIP Performance Options outstanding at the end of the reporting period have the following expiry dates and exercise prices:

Options	Grant date	Vesting date	Expiry date	Exercise price (in €)	Target number of options December 31, 2023
LTIP Performance Options (2022)	April 12, 2023	April 12, 2025	April 12, 2032	0.12	697,845

*Service period for this award started on January 1, 2023

The weighted average remaining contractual life of LTIP Performance Options outstanding at the end of period is 7.62 years.

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the total expense arising from the LTIP Performance Options recognized as part of employee benefit expense was €2,070 thousand (2022: € nil , 2021: € nil ).

Fair value of LTIP Performance Options granted

The assessed fair value of LTIP Performance Options 2022 was €1.83 per option (December 31, 2022: no options granted). This fair value was determined as the share price of the Company’s ordinary shares on grant date of $2.13 (€1.954), determined as the closing price on April 12, 2023 (the grant date), less the exercise price of €0.12.

The assessed fair value of LTIP Performance Options 2023 was €2.82 per option (December 31, 2022: no options granted). This fair value was determined as the share price of the Company’s ordinary shares on grant date of $3.14 (€2.945), determined as the closing price on December 30, 2022 (the last working day preceding the grant date), less the exercise price of €0.12.

As the LTIP Performance Options do not include any market conditions or non-vesting conditions that have an impact on the fair value and there is no adjustment for dividends, the grant date fair value of LTIP Performance Options was determined using the same approach as used for the options granted under the MIP.

Restricted Stock Units

As it relates to the LTIP for other Allego employees, individuals may elect to receive up to 50% of their annual performance bonus to be paid in RSUs, which would vest on an annual basis. Additionally, certain Allego employees are eligible to receive additional RSUs based on the Company's existing internal performance evaluation framework. These RSUs would be granted annually and vest after three years. In May 2023, the Group awarded RSUs to eligible and selected employees based on the Company's internal performance evaluation framework. The RSUs have a vesting period of three years and are subject to the participant's continued employment until the vesting date.

Under the terms of the same plan, RSUs were awarded to eligible members of the board of directors in May 2023. 666,968 RSUs were not subject to any vesting conditions and vested fully on the grant date. The related Company's ordinary shares were issued to the eligible members of the board of directors on August 10, 2023. 285,844 RSUs have a vesting period of one year and will vest on May 23, 2024, subject to the members continuous involvement within the board of directors until the vesting date.

Set out below are summaries of the number of RSUs granted under the plan:

As at December 31	176,952	285,844

The grant date fair value of the RSUs granted to the employees in 2023 is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the three-year vesting period, with a corresponding entry in equity. Since the RSUs granted to certain members of the board of directors are not subject to any vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of these awards is recognized immediately, on the grant date, as an expense with a corresponding entry in equity.

The assessed fair value of RSUs granted during the period ended 2023, was €1.97 per RSU (December 31, 2022: no RSUs granted). The fair value of the RSUs has been determined with reference to the share price of the Company’s ordinary shares at the grant date. Since the Company does not expect to pay dividends during the vesting period, the weighted average fair value of the RSUs granted in the year ended December 31, 2023 of $2.13 (€1.976) is equal to share price at the grant date, May 24, 2023.

The share-based payment expense recognized for the year ended December 31, 2023 for the equity-settled RSUs amounted to €1,729 thousand (2022: € nil, 2021: € nil), consisting of €1,316 thousand related to the fully vested board of directors' RSUs recognized on grant date, €342 thousand representing the expense for the current period related to the board of directors' RSUs with a one year vesting period, and €70 thousand representing the expense for the current period in relation to the RSUs issued to employees.

IPO Grant Shares

In May 2023, the Group awarded 100 ordinary shares per employee to a select group of individuals who were instrumental in the success of the IPO. The Company granted this one-off share award as of the IPO date to employees of the Company, who were still employed by the Company a year later. This award granted in 2023 was not subject to any vesting conditions. The Company awarded a total number of 9,600 ordinary shares in May 2023. The ordinary shares were issued to the employees on June 9, 2023.

The fair value of the share awards of $2.13 (€1.977) is equal to the share price of the Company's ordinary shares at the date of grant. The share-based payment expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 is €19 thousand (2022: € nil, 2021: € nil).

LTIP Special Options

On December 29, 2023, the Group awarded 1,000,197 LTIP Special Options to one of the executive officers as replacement for the cancelled Performance Based Share Options. The vesting date of the LTIP Special Options is December 29, 2023 and the expiry date is June 30, 2024. No performance or service conditions are attached to the vesting date, and the options were granted immediately.

The fair value of the LTIP Special Options was €1.10 per option (December 31, 2022: no options granted). This fair value was determined as the share price of the Company’s ordinary shares on grant date of $1.35 (€1.228), determined as the closing price on December 29, 2023, less the exercise price of €0.12. The incremental fair value granted from these options as a result of the cancellation and replacement amounts to €972 thousand and was recognized as part of shared-based payment expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023. The incremental fair value was measured as the difference between the fair value of the LTIP Special Options at grant date and the fair value of the cancelled Performance Based Share Options at the time of cancellation.

13    Loss per share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (see explanations regarding the impact of the SPAC Transaction over the weighted average number of ordinary shares in Note 4).

The following table reflects the loss and share data used in the basic and diluted loss per share calculations for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021:

	2023	2022	2021

Basic and diluted loss per share (in €)	(0.41)	(1.21)	(1.68)

The Company only has ordinary shares. Refer to Note 23 for details about the Company’s share capital.

There is no difference between basic and diluted loss per share as the effect of the potential ordinary shares that would be issued by the Company under the First Special Fees Agreement, the Management Incentive Plan or the Long Term Incentive Plan are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. Refer to Note 11.1, Note 11.3 and Note 11.4 for details on the First Special Fees Agreement, the Management Incentive Plan and the Long Term Incentive Plan, respectively.

There have been no other transactions involving ordinary shares or potential ordinary shares between the reporting date and the date of authorization of these consolidated financial statements.

Internally developed software

Internally developed software comprises the Group’s internally developed EV Cloud platform. As at December 31, 2023, the remaining amortization period was one to three years (December 31, 2022: one to three years, December 31, 2021: one to three years).

Goodwill

Goodwill originated from the acquisition of MOMA as described in Note 4.

Impairment test for goodwill

For annual impairment testing, the Group allocated goodwill to groups of Cash-Generating Units ("CGUs"). The group of CGUs is the lowest level within the Group at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. Goodwill is allocated and monitored by management at the level of the operating segment, which is the Company as a whole.

The Group tests whether goodwill has suffered any impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. The fair value of the business as of December 31, 2023, which is based on the market capitalization of the business, was compared to the carrying value of the Group as a whole (i.e., the group of CGUs making up the operating segment) and indicated sufficient headroom of approximately €400,000 thousand at this level (December 31, 2022: €700,000 thousand). As a result, it was concluded that there is no goodwill impairment as of December 31, 2023.

Decommissioning of charging sites

The Group, in its ordinary course of business, has entered into various land permit contracts with site owners throughout Europe. These contracts are classified as lease agreements under IFRS 16 Leases. As per the terms of these agreements, the Group has an obligation to restore the leased sites to their original condition upon the expiration or termination of the lease. In accordance with IFRS 16 and IAS 37, the Group assesses the obligation for decommissioning costs and, if material, recognizes a provision for the present value of the estimated costs of dismantling and removing the charging equipment and restoring the site. Concurrently, an equivalent 'right-of-use' asset is capitalized and depreciated over the lease term.

As of December 31, 2023, the Group has evaluated the potential decommissioning costs associated with the dismantling and removal of charging equipment installed at these leased sites. Based on the assessment, the estimated costs are deemed to be immaterial. Consequently, the Group has determined that the recognition of a decommissioning provision and the corresponding capitalization of these costs as part of the 'right-of-use' assets are not required. The immaterial costs are anticipated to be incurred in the future as expenses related to the recovery of charging equipment, and will be recognized in the income statement when incurred.

During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Group entered into a new interest rate cap with the same counterparty as the previous interest rate cap and received a payment of €1,071 thousand representing the net balance of the premium payable for the new interest rate cap of €4,067 thousand and the amount due with respect to the termination of the old interest cap of €5,138 thousand. Additionally, the Group paid a premium of €4,068 thousand for the second interest rate cap, entered into with a different counterparty.

Additionally, in the fourth quarter of 2022, the Group purchased two forward contracts to sell, and buy, an equal amount of CO2 tickets for a fixed price during April and June, 2023. The Group agreed to sell CO2 tickets that were set to expire during 2022, and purchase an equal amount of CO2 tickets for calendar year 2023. The market for these forward contracts is highly illiquid, with limited market activity and no price fluctuations expected before the delivery date of the CO2 tickets. These contracts qualified as derivatives and were accounted at fair value through profit and loss. The Group sold these contracts in 2023, and recognized no gain or loss during the year ended December 31, 2023 (2022: € nil) and the balance of the derivative on the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2023 is € nil (2022: € nil).

Share capital

As at December 31, 2023, the issued share capital of the Company amounts to €32,521 thousand (December 31, 2022: €32,061 thousand), divided into 271,010,790 ordinary shares of €0.12 (December 31, 2022: 267,177,592 ordinary shares of €0.12 per share). They entitle the holder to participate in dividends, and to share in the proceeds of winding up the Company in proportion to the number of shares held. The authorized share capital of the Company as at December 31, 2023 amounted to €108,000 thousand (December 31, 2022: €108,000 thousand), divided into 900,000,000 ordinary shares of €0.12 per share (December 31, 2022: 900,000,000 ordinary shares of €0.12 per share).

On March 17, 2022, trading in the public company commenced on the NYSE. The Company trades under the Allego name under the ticker symbol “ALLG”.

Share capital and share premium transactions as part of the SPAC Transaction

In 2018 and 2019, the Group entered into shareholder loans with Madeleine (the Company’s immediate parent) to finance its operations (refer to Note 25). On March 16, 2022, before the closing of the SPAC Transaction, the shareholder loan equity conversion resulted in a share issuance of 2 Allego Holding ordinary shares at a par value of €1 per share, increasing share capital by €2, with the remaining difference in the shareholder loan equity conversion being recorded as an increase to share premium of €101,931 thousand and accordingly no gain or loss has been recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

On the same date, in accordance with the First Special Fees Agreement, Allego Holding issued 22 ordinary shares at a par value of €1 per share to the external consulting firm, increasing share capital by €22. Please refer to Note 11.1 for more details on the First Special Fees Agreement.

As indicated in Note 4, on March 16, 2022, each holder of Allego N.V. ordinary shares exchanged by means of a contribution in kind its Allego Holding ordinary shares to Allego N.V. in exchange for the issuance of shares in accordance with the Exchange Ratio. Therefore, Allego Holding became a wholly owned subsidiary of Allego N.V. Consequently, 124 Allego Holding ordinary shares at a par value of €1 each were exchanged for 235,935,061 ordinary shares of Allego N.V. at a par value of €0.12 each. Consequently, share capital increased by €28,311 thousand and the share premium decreased by the same amount.

Furthermore, each share of Spartan’s common stock was exchanged by means of a contribution in kind in exchange for the issuance of ordinary shares of Allego N.V., whereby Allego N.V. issued one ordinary share for each share of Spartan’s

common stock exchanged. This resulted in the issuance of 14,907,582 Allego N.V. ordinary shares of €0.12 par value, and increased share capital by €1,789 thousand and share premium by €85,808 thousand, which includes the impact of applying IFRS 2 for €158,714 thousand (see Note 4).

Concurrently with the execution of the BCA, Spartan and Allego entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”), dated July 28, 2021, with a number of investors (collectively the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which the PIPE Investors agreed to subscribe to and purchase, and Allego N.V. agreed to issue and sell to such PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 15,000,000 Ordinary Shares (the “PIPE Shares”) at a price of $10.00 per share (€9.079 per share) for an aggregate purchase price of $150,000 thousand (€136,048 thousand) in proceeds (the “PIPE Financing”) on the Closing Date. This resulted in a share capital increase of €1,500 thousand (12,500,000 ordinary shares at a price of €0.12 per share) and a rise in share premium of €108,515 thousand. Additionally, an increase in contract liability of €3,358 thousand was recognized for future charging services to be provided to one of the PIPE Investors (see Note 6). On March 22, a second PIPE share issue was executed. 2,500,000 ordinary shares were issued at price of €0.12 per share, increasing share capital by €300 thousand, and raising share premium by €22,375 thousand.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Group incurred transaction costs of €1,059 thousand that are directly attributable to the issuance of new equity instruments in relation to the SPAC Transaction. These transaction costs have been recorded as a deduction to share premium. For further details regarding these transaction costs refer to Note 4.

(in €‘000)	Interest rate	Maturity	December 31, 2023	December 31, 2022
Renewed facility	Euribor* + 3.9%**	December 19, 2027	350,722	269,033
Total***			350,722	269,033

*The Euribor rate (6M) is floored at 0%. This floor is closely related to the contract of the loan and is therefore not presented separately in the consolidated statement of financial position.

**The margin of 3.9% will increase by 0.2% for the first time in December 2025.

***During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Group had an old facility, which was settled with the proceeds from the renewed facility. In addition, the Group had two shareholder loans, which were either settled or converted to equity during the year ended December 31, 2022. Refer to the paragraphs below for details.

Old facility (senior debt)

In May 2019, the Group entered into the old facility agreement with a group of lenders to finance its operations. The principal terms and conditions of the old facility were as follows:

•a facility of €120,000 thousand;

•drawdown stop when conditions precedent (covenant ratios) are not met;

•repayment in full at maturity date;

•commitment fee per year equals to 35% of the applicable margin. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the commitment fee was 1.75% per year (equal to 35% of the contractual margin of 5%).

The Group has utilized the maximum amount of credit as allowed under the old facility as of December 2, 2021, as such no additional commitment fees were incurred after this date.

Exercise of old facility accordion feature

On July 28, 2022, the Group has expanded its old €120,000 thousand facility by an additional €50,000 thousand through an accordion feature with the group of lenders within the original old facility agreement. The main terms and conditions of the old facility remained effective upon exercising the accordion feature. Under the original terms, the old facility was due to expire in May 2026.

The exercise of the accordion feature was made in the context of the anticipated refinancing of the old facility in December 2022 and was accounted for as modification of the former financial liability. The loss on modification amounted to €1,730 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022 and was recognized in the consolidated statement of profit and loss, within finance income/(costs). Refer to Note 12 for details.

Refinancing of the old facility with the renewed facility

On December 19, 2022, the Group has entered into the renewed facility agreement with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, increasing the total available facility by €230,000 thousand to €400,000 thousand, to further support its growth. The renewed facility consists of:

i.€170,000 thousand used to settle the old facility;

ii.up to €200,000 thousand to be used for financing and refinancing certain capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions (and for other permitted debt servicing uses); and

iii.up to €30,000 thousand to be used for issuance of guarantees and letters of credit (and when utilized by way of letters of credit, for general corporate purposes).

The renewed facility expires in December 2027 and bears interest at EURIBOR plus a margin. The principal terms and conditions of the renewed facility are as follows:

•drawdown stop when conditions precedent are not met;

•repayment in full at maturity date;

•commitment fee per year equals to 35% of the applicable margin and is payable for each undrawn facility in the period from the agreement signing date to the date being 42 months following the signing date. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the commitment fee was 1.365% per year (equal to 35% of the margin of 3.9%).

In December 2022, the Group completed two drawdowns on part (i) and part (ii) of the renewed facility for a total amount of €279,210 thousand, of which €170,000 thousand (part (i)) was used to repay the Group’s old facility by a way of netting with the drawdown on the renewed facility. In June and December 2023, the Group completed two drawdowns on part (ii) of €43,400 thousand and €39,000 thousand, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, the Group has not drawn on €8,390 thousand of this facility. In addition, part (iii) was partially utilized in October 2023, by issuance of letters of credit to a renewable energy supplier for an amount of €12,500 thousand. As of December 31, 2023 the unutilized amount from the guarantee facility is €17,500 thousand. Refer to Note 35 for details.

In parallel to the renewed facility, the Group entered into two interest rate caps to hedge the interest rate risk on 67% of the outstanding loan amounts under the renewed facility. Details about the Group’s interest rate caps are included in Note 19 and Note 33.

The refinancing of the old facility was accounted for as extinguishment of the former financial liability and recognition of the new debt instrument. The loss on extinguishment amounted to €2,832 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022 and was recognized in the consolidated statement of profit and loss, within finance income/(costs). Refer to Note 12 for details.

Interest expenses on the Group’s old and renewed facilities are recognized as part of finance income/(costs) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Refer to Note 12 for details.

Loan covenants

Under the terms of the renewed facility, the Company and its subsidiaries (other than specific unrestricted subsidiaries) are required to comply with financial covenants. The renewed facility also contains customary negative covenants, including, but not limited to, certain restrictions on the ability of the Company to merge and consolidate with other companies, incur indebtedness, grant liens or security interests on assets, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, sell or otherwise transfer assets or enter into transactions with affiliates. The renewed facility further provides that upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the obligations thereunder may be accelerated. Such events of default include non-payment, drawdown stop events, breach of financial and other covenants, cross default, insolvency, unlawfulness, material adverse change and other customary events of default. Details about the covenants and compliance with covenants are included in Note 34.

Assets pledged as security

The renewed facility is secured by pledges on the bank accounts (presented as part of cash and cash equivalents in Note 22 and non-current other financial assets in Note 19), pledges on trade and other receivables presented in Note 20 and pledges

on the shares in the capital of Allego Holding B.V., Allego B.V., Allego GmbH and Allego France SAS held by the Group, which combined represent more than 85% of the Group's total assets.

Transaction costs

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Group incurred €624 thousand (2022: €11,657 thousand, 2021: €517 thousand) of transaction costs, which are directly attributable to the old and renewed facilities. These costs are included in the measurement of the respective drawdowns and are amortized over the term of these drawdowns using the effective interest method.

The Group expects that it will draw on the funds available under the parts (i) and (ii) of the renewed facility. Therefore, commitment fees paid on the unused portion of these parts of the renewed facility are deferred and treated as an adjustment to the loan’s effective interest rate and recognized as interest expense over the term of the respective facility parts. Part (iii) of the renewed facility is utilized by the issuance of guarantees and letters of credit to the Group's counterparties, thus no actual drawdowns are made by the Group. The issued guarantees or letters of credit represent off-balance sheet commitments, refer to Note 35 for further details. As such, the commitment fee is capitalized as a prepayment for liquidity services, amortized over the period of that part of the facility and recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within finance income/(costs). During the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Group did not incur material commitment fees for part (iii) of the renewed facility.

Shareholder loans (1)

In 2018 and 2019, the Group entered into six shareholder loans with Madeleine (the Company’s immediate parent) to finance its operations. All shareholder loans had similar terms and conditions. The principal terms and conditions were as follows:

•repayment in full at maturity date;

•interest can be paid or accrued at the discretion of the Group. Any accrued interest is due at the maturity date of the loan.

On March 16, 2022, immediately prior to the closing of the previously announced business combination and pursuant to the terms of the BCA, the outstanding principal of the shareholder loans together with the accrued interest on these loans have been converted into equity. For further details regarding the equity conversion of the shareholder loans refer to Note 23.

Interest expenses on the Group’s shareholder loans with Madeleine were recognized as part of finance income/(costs) in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, refer to Note 12 for details, and were accrued to the carrying value of the shareholder loans. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Group recognized an interest expense of €1,738 thousand (2021: €8,162 thousand) on these shareholder loans before the conversion into equity.

•repayment in full at maturity date;

•interest is paid half yearly in arrears;

•the loan becomes due in the event of a share capital increase.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the loan was fully settled.

27     Warrant liabilities

As mentioned in Note 4, as part of the SPAC Transaction, 13,799,948 Public Warrants and 9,360,000 Private Placement Warrants issued by Spartan, which had a fair value of €42,253 thousand at the time of the transaction and they have been assumed by the Group. At December 31, 2023, the Group had no Public Warrants and no Private Placement Warrants outstanding after the Public Warrant holders exchanged all their warrants on October 3, 2023 and October 18, 2023 respectively. Private Placement Warrants holders exercised all their warrants on April 15, 2022.

Public Warrants entitled the holder to convert each warrant into one ordinary share of the Company of €0.12 par value at an exercise price of $11.50 (€10.80)10, and could be exercised starting 30 days after the SPAC Transaction. The Private Placement Warrants had terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants, with the exception that as long as the Private Placement Warrants are held by Spartan, they may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, and they could not be transferred, assigned, or sold until 30 days after the Business Combination.

The cashless basis exercise entitled the Private Placement Warrants holders to convert the warrants into a number of Allego ordinary shares of €0.12 par value equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the product of the number of ordinary shares of Allego underlying the warrants and the excess of the fair market value over the exercise price of the warrants by the fair market value. For the purpose of the calculation above, the fair market value shall mean the average last reported sale price of the ordinary shares of Allego for the ten trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of exercise of the warrant is given.

Exchange of warrants

On April 15, 2022, all the Private Placement Warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, and the Private Placement Warrants holders received 1,334,949 ordinary shares of the Company. The Private Placement Warrants had a fair value of €13,854 thousand on the exercise date. For further details regarding the Private Placement Warrants exercise refer to Note 23.

In August 25, 2023, the Company announced the commencement of an exchange offer which provided Public Warrant holders the opportunity to receive 0.23 Ordinary Shares of the Company in exchange for each warrant tendered by such holders. This offer coincided with a solicitation of consents from holders of the Public Warrants to amend the Warrant Agreement, and require that each Public Warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the exchange offer be converted into 0.207 Ordinary Shares of the Company.

On October 3, 2023, the Company exchanged 13,029,838 Public Warrants for Ordinary Shares of the Company at an exchange ratio of 0.23 shares for each Public Warrant exchanged. As a result, the Company issued 2,996,918 Ordinary Shares which includes fractional shares7. In connection with the exchange, the Company entered into the related amendment to the warrant agreement after receiving approval of approximately 94.3% by outstanding Public Warrant holders in relation to the consent solicitation, and exercised its right to exchange all remaining untendered Public Warrants at an exchange ratio of 0.207 Ordinary Shares of the Company for each warrant. The fair value of the Public Warrants that were exchanged on October 3, 2023 amounted to €7,298 thousand.

On October 18, 2023, in connection with the amendment of the Warrant Agreement, the Company exercised its right to exchange the remaining 770,110 Public Warrants for Ordinary Shares of the Company at an exchange ratio of 0.207 shares for each Public Warrant exchanged. As a result, the Company issued 159,413 Ordinary Shares. An additional 299 shares were issued in relation to the Public Warrants exchanged on October 18, 2023 to account for fractional shares11. The fair value of the Public Warrants that were exchanged on October 18, 2023 amounted to €271 thousand.

Movements in warrant liabilities

The financial liabilities for the warrants are accounted for at fair value through profit or loss. For further details on the assumptions and models used for estimating the fair value of the derivative warrants refer to Note 32.

During the year ended December 31, 2023 the Group recognized a total net fair value loss of €6,273 thousand (2022: gain of €27,103 thousand, 2021: € nil ) in relation to the Public Warrants, in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, within finance income/(costs).

Movements in the warrant liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2023 are summarized as follows:

10 Translated at the EUR/USD Exchange rate as at December 31, 2022.

11 Holders of Public Warrants who would otherwise have been entitled to receive fractional shares pursuant to the Offer, received one whole share in lieu of such fractional share.

29    Derivative liabilities

The Group signed multiple Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 for the purchase of electricity from renewable sources in the Netherlands and Germany, to secure a long-term supply of green electricity to its charging equipment. These agreements are "buy-as-produced" contracts, have duration of 5 to 11 years and set a fixed price of the renewable electricity for the whole duration of agreements. The expected contractual volumes of renewable electricity were determined based on the historical production profiles of the local comparable facilities.

During the year ended December 31, 2023 two renewable facilities were commissioned, the remaining facilities are in construction with the expected commissioning dates in 2024-2025. The actual coverage of the total electricity consumption with the supply from PPAs during the year ended December 31, 2023 and the expected coverage over the duration of the PPAs are disclosed in Note 33.

As discussed in Note 3.1.3 the German PPAs and some PPAs in the Netherlands entered into in the year ended December 31, 2023 meet the “own use” criteria in IFRS 9 and accounted for as executory contracts. However, the renewable electricity supplied by the remaining PPAs in the Netherlands do not meet the “own use” exemption in IFRS 9 and recognized as such as derivative liabilities.

The derivative liabilities relating to PPAs had a nil fair value at inception. The methodology and main inputs to the fair value model at inception and as at December 31, 2023 are further described in Note 32.

Uncertain tax positions

Liabilities for uncertain tax positions are recognized if and to the extent it is probable that additional taxes will become due. Our assessments are based on our best estimate of how the tax authorities concerned are likely to evaluate and respond to the cases in question, taking into account expert advice. Uncertain tax positions for which liabilities have been recorded, mainly relate to international transfer pricing and tax deductibility of expenses.

Estimates and assumptions

Refer to Note 2.7.23 for details on estimates and assumptions made with respect to the recognition of deferred tax assets.

Changes to the Dutch corporate income tax law

As per January 1, 2022 changes to the Dutch corporate income tax law have been enacted and become effective. These changes have resulted in the following:

•The carry back period remains one year.

•Unused tax losses available for carry forward do not longer have an expiry date.

•The amount of unused tax losses available for carry forward without an expiry date has been maximized to 50% of taxable profits for the year in excess of € 1 million.

•The revised carry forward period applies to all tax losses arising as of January 1, 2022 and to unused tax losses available for carry forward as of that date to the extent that these tax losses have arisen in fiscal years that commenced on or after January 1, 2013.

The corporate income tax rate from 2024, remains 25.8% (2022: increase from 25.0% to 25.8%), for taxable income in excess of €200 thousand (2023: €395 thousand; 2022: €395 thousand). The corporate income tax rate for taxable income up to €200 thousand (2023: €395 thousand, 2022: €395 thousand) increased from 15.0% to 19.0%. Consequently, the relevant deferred tax balances have been remeasured in 2022.

Expiration year of loss carryforwards

As at December 31, 2023, the Group had unused tax losses available for carryforward for an amount of €234,538 thousand (December 31, 2022: €197,171 thousand) as unrecognized losses and for an amount of €2,616 thousand (December 31, 2022: €1,941 thousand) as recognized losses, in total €237,155 thousand (December 31, 2022: €199,112 thousand). These unused tax losses do not have an expiry date for all periods presented.

30.3. Fiscal unity for Dutch corporate income tax purposes

Exclusion from the fiscal unity for Dutch corporate income tax purposes

As of June 1, 2018, Allego Holding and its Dutch wholly-owned subsidiaries formed a fiscal unity with Madeleine — Allego Holding’s then immediate parent entity — and Opera Charging B.V. (“Opera”—parent entity of Madeleine) for Dutch corporate income tax purposes. The completion of the SPAC Transaction has resulted in the exclusion of Allego Holding B.V. and the Dutch wholly-owned subsidiaries from the fiscal unity headed by Opera.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Group has prepared and filed a request with the Dutch Tax Authorities (“DTA”) for upfront certainty regarding the consequences of the exclusion from the fiscal unity.

The Group submitted the request to the DTA on July 28, 2021. The Group has reached an agreement with the DTA on January 18, 2022 on this request. The agreement with the Dutch Tax Authorities mitigates potential discussions on the various tax topics that have been agreed upon. Additionally, the agreement provides the Group with tax certainty regarding the dissolution of the fiscal unity for Dutch corporate income tax purposes headed by Opera and the related Dutch corporate income tax considerations for the year ended December 31, 2018 up to and including the year ended December 31, 2022 and fiscal year 2023 until the moment of exclusion from the fiscal unity.

•an overview of all financial instruments held by the Group;

•the classification of the financial instruments;

•the line item on the consolidated statement of financial position in which the financial instrument is included;

•the financial instrument’s book and fair value.

The Group holds the following financial instruments:

32    Fair value measurement

This note explains the judgments and estimates made in determining the fair values of the financial instruments that are recognized and measured at fair value and the financial instruments for which the fair value is disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. To provide an indication about the reliability of the inputs used in determining fair value, the Group has classified its financial instruments into the three levels prescribed under the accounting standards.

An explanation of each level is included in Note 2.7.18 of these consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value

As at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Group has recorded the following financial instruments at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position:

•interest rate cap derivatives;

•investment in equity securities;

•derivative liabilities;

•warrant liabilities.

The Group has two interest rate caps related to the renewed facility, presented within non-current other financial assets. The interest rate caps qualify for the level 2 category in the fair value hierarchy due to the fact that they are not traded in an active market and the fair value is determined using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data. Since all significant inputs required to fair value the instruments are observable, the instruments are included in level 2.

The investment in equity securities is also presented within non-current other financial assets. The investment qualified for the level 2 category in the fair value hierarchy at the time of acquisition due to the fact that the investee is not a public company traded in an active market and the fair value was determined using valuation techniques which maximize the usage of observable market data. During the year ended December 31, 2022 the instrument was transferred to the level 3 category in the fair value hierarchy, as the securities are not traded in an active market and there is no observable market data. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the investment in equity securities remained in level 3 category. Therefore, the fair value of these securities is determined using valuation techniques which use unobservable inputs that are significant to fair value.

F-83

Table of Contents

The derivative liabilities include the PPAs derivatives. The fair value of PPAs derivatives is estimated by discounting the difference between the cash flows based on contractual price and the cash flows based on the forward prices for the remaining maturity of the agreements, using amongst others significant unobservable inputs related to future renewable electricity prices. Since significant inputs required to fair value the instruments are unobservable, the instruments are classified in level 3 category.

As at December 31, 2022, the Group had warrant liabilities related to Public Warrants, recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statement of financial position, presented as a separate line item. As a result of the Private Placement Warrants exercise in 2022, and the Public Warrants exchange in 2023, no warrant liabilities remain outstanding as at December 31, 2023 (refer to Note 27). The Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants qualified for the level 3 category in the fair value hierarchy at the time of their issuance due to the fact that they were not traded in an active market at the time and their fair value was determined using valuation techniques which use unobservable inputs that were significant to the fair value. The Private Placement Warrants and Public Warrants qualified for the level 1 category in the fair value hierarchy before being derecognized in 2022 and 2023 respectively, due to the fact that their fair value is determined based on quoted market prices.

In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2022, preference shares and purchase options were derecognized. Both instruments qualified for the level 3 category in the fair value hierarchy before being derecognized, due to the fact that they were not traded in an active market and the fair value was determined using valuation techniques which use unobservable inputs that were significant to the fair value. Preference share derivatives and purchase options were both presented within non-current other financial assets.

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. During the year ended December 31, 2023 no transfers occurred between level of fair value hierarchy. During the year ended December 31, 2022 a transfer of €20,568 thousand from level 3 to level 1 with respect to the warrants and a transfer of €41,984 thousand from level 2 to level 3 with respect to the investment in equity securities occurred.

The fair values of the Group’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are disclosed in the table in Note 31.

Fair value of assets and liabilities not measured at fair value

The Group has determined the fair value of assets and liabilities not measured at fair value, but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed.

Borrowings:

For the renewed facility, the fair value differs from its carrying amount because the interest payable on the loans is (partially) fixed. The borrowings qualify for the level 3 category in the fair value category due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.

The fair values of the Group’s assets and liabilities not measured at fair value are disclosed in the table in Note 31.

Specific valuation techniques to determine fair values

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments include:

•preference share derivatives: option pricing model;

•interest rate cap derivatives: option pricing model;

•investment in equity securities: discounted cash flow analysis;

•purchase options: option pricing model, i.e. Black-Scholes pricing model;

•borrowings: discounted cash flow analysis using a market interest rate;

•derivative liabilities: discounted cash flow analysis;

•warrants valuation as of issuance: binomial tree framework.

The Group’s engages with third party valuation specialists to perform its fair value measurements for financial reporting purposes on a periodic basis. Involvement of external valuers is determined annually by the Group’s finance team after discussion with and approval by the Group’s Executive Board. Selection criteria for valuation specialist include market knowledge, reputation, independence and whether professional standards are maintained.

The Group works closely with the qualified external valuers to establish the appropriate valuation techniques and inputs to the model. At each reporting date, the Group analyses the movements in the values of assets and liabilities which are required to be remeasured or re-assessed as per the Group’s accounting policies.

Valuation inputs to the fair value of purchase options

Inputs to the fair value of the purchase options are the spot price per share, the exercise price, the risk-free rate, volatility, time to expiration and dividend yield. The following table summarizes the quantitative information about the significant unobservable input parameters used in the level 3 fair value measurement of the purchase options at the time of their derecognition or exercise in 2022, using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

Table of Contents

	June 7, 2022	March 16, 2022
Purchase option	MOMA	Mega-E
Parameters
Spot price per share (in €)	253	437,000
Volatility	N/A	100.00	%

Given that all purchase options have either been exercised or have become substantive during the year ended December 31, 2022, changes to significant unobservable input parameters and the result of these changes on the fair value of the options have not been disclosed.

Valuation inputs to the fair value of warrant liabilities

The fair value of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants have been estimated using level 3 inputs to a binomial tree framework at the time of their issuance (March 16, 2022) as there was no observable trade price available. Inputs to the binomial framework tree are the spot price per share, risk-free interest rate, the warrants key contractual terms and assumptions related to the Groups expected stock-price volatility and dividend yield.

Subsequent to their listing on an active market in 2022, the Public Warrants qualified for the level 1 category in the fair value hierarchy, due to the fact that their fair value is determined based on quoted market prices. For Private Placement Warrants, which were exercised on April 15, 2022 the fair value on that date was determined based on the spot price per underlying ordinary share of Allego, which is a quoted market price. For Public Warrants, which were exchanged for shares on October 3, 2023 and October 18, 2023 respectively, the fair value on the relevant dates was determined based on the observable listed quoted price (level 1).

Valuation inputs to the fair value of investments in equity securities

The Group updated the valuation model to determine the fair value of investments in equity securities. Inputs to the fair value of the investments in equity securities include historical financial information of the underlying company, EBITDA margin, capital expenditure, the earnings growth factor and risk-adjusted discount rate. The following table summarizes the quantitative information about the significant unobservable input parameters that are considered sensitive and are used in the level 3 fair value measurement of the investments in equity securities, using the DCF (“Discounted Cash Flows”) methodology.

In %	December 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Growth factor	2.0	%	3.0	%
Discount rate	10.3	%	11.9	%

An increase or decrease of 100 basis point in the growth factor would change the fair value of the investment in equity by an increase of €5,221 thousand or a decrease of €3,963 thousand respectively.

An increase or decrease of 100 basis point in the discount rate would change the fair value of the investment in equity by a decrease of €5,148 thousand or an increase of €6,808 thousand respectively.

Valuation inputs to the fair value of preference shares derivatives

Preference share derivatives were derecognized on December 15, 2022 and therefore have a fair value of € nil for the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023. The fair value of the preference shares derivatives depended on the future value of shares in Voltalis at the time of a future Triggering Event. A Triggering Event is a majority disposal, public listing or a joint decision of an extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders to convert the shares of Voltalis. To measure the fair value of the instruments, valuation techniques that are based on discounting expected future cash flows, also referred to as the income approach, have been taken into account.

Given that these rights would be derived from the outcomes of a specific Triggering Event scenario, a probability-weighted equity return method was historically applied in order to value the payouts under the economic rights. Under this approach,

F-86

Table of Contents

the payouts were estimated based upon an analysis of future values for Voltalis, assuming various probable Triggering Event scenarios, each with their own probability attached.

The following table summarizes the quantitative information about the significant unobservable input parameters used in the level 3 fair value measurement of the preference shares derivatives at the time the Group obtained the rights to the derivative, and at the time of derecognition in 2022.

	June 7, 2022	December 15, 2022
Parameters
Spot price per share (in €)	115	108
Volatility (in %)	27.50	27.50
Discount rate (in %)	(0.1)% - 0.7%	2.3% - 2.5%

Given that the Group has waived certain potential economic rights associated with a portion of the ordinary shares held by the Group in Voltalis on December 15, 2022, changes to significant unobservable input parameters and the result of these changes on the fair value of the preference shares derivatives have not been disclosed.

Further details and background on the preference shares derivatives are disclosed in Note 7.

Valuation inputs to the fair value of derivative liabilities relating to PPAs

The fair value of the derivative liabilities relating to PPAs has been estimated using level 3 inputs to a discounted cash-flow model using contractual, company specific and market inputs. These include as key inputs the electricity forward prices, the renewable electricity production volumes and the discount rate (including the credit spread). The electricity forward prices cannot be forecasted using observable market data for the whole duration of the contract and needs to be estimated.

The following table summarizes the quantitative information about the significant unobservable input parameters that are considered sensitive and are used in the level 3 fair value measurement of the derivatives liabilities relating to PPAs, using the DCF (“Discounted Cash Flows”) methodology:

	At inception	December 31, 2023
Parameters
Electricity forward price - wind (in €/MWh) *	90 - 128	83 - 91
Electricity forward price - solar (in €/MWh)	78	69

* the electricity forward price used in the model depends on the contract date and duration of the contract.

An increase or decrease of an average 1,100 basis point in the electricity forward price would change the fair value of the derivative liabilities by a decrease of approximately €4,213 thousand or an increase of approximately €4,213 thousand respectively.

33    Financial risk management

This note explains the Group’s exposure to financial risks and how these risks could affect the Group’s future financial performance.

Risk	Exposure arising from	Measurement	Management
Market risk – interest rate risk	Long-term borrowings at variable rates	Sensitivity analysis	Economic hedge with an interest rate cap
Market risk – investments price risk	Investments in equity securities	Sensitivity analysis	Monitoring quarterly valuation updates and forecasts of future cash flows
Market risk – commodities price risk	Derivative liabilities	Maturity profile and coverage	Increase supply of renewable electricity via fixed price PPAs
Credit risk	Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, derivative financial instruments and contract assets	Aging analysis	Doing business with creditworthy companies and a strict policy of cash collection.
Liquidity risk	Borrowings and other liabilities	Cash flow forecasts	Availability of borrowing facilities.

The Group’s management oversees the management of these risks. The Group’s management is supported by the Finance department that advises on financial risks and the appropriate financial risk governance framework for the Group. The Group’s risk management is predominantly controlled by the Finance department under policies approved by the Executive Board. The Executive Board provides principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments. Since the largest part of the Group’s assets, liabilities, and transactions are denominated in euro, the market risk of foreign exchange is considered not to be significant. There are no changes compared to the previous period.

Market risk

Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from a long-term borrowing with a variable rate, which exposes the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The cash flow risk is mitigated through the usage of interest rate caps. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Group’s borrowings at a variable rate were denominated in euro.

The Group’s borrowings are carried at amortized cost.

As at December 31, 2023, approximately 0% of the Group’s borrowings are at a fixed rate of interest (December 31, 2022: 0%). An analysis by maturities is provided below in section "Maturities of financial liabilities" of this note.

Instruments used by the Group

The Group has two interest rate caps in place with a notional of €240,500 thousand (December 31, 2022: two interest rate cap with a notional of €181,486.5 thousand) which mature in December 2027 (December 31, 2022: in December 2027). As at December 31, 2023, the interest rate caps cover approximately 67% (December 31, 2022: 65%) of the variable loan principal outstanding. The notional of the derivative instruments is based on the principal of the debt and changes over time in order for the interest rate caps to mitigate at least 65% (2022: 65%) of the variable debt outstanding. According to the contract and as the loan is almost fully drawn, the notional of the interest rate cap will remain €240,500 thousand until the maturity of the agreement. Specifically, the strike price is linked to Euribor and was 3.43% at the end of 2023 (2022: 1.50%). The strike price will be 2.97% at the end of 2024, 2.64% at the end of 2025, 2.63% at the end of 2026 and 2.62% at the end of 2027. The remaining cash flow risk is accepted.

The interest rate caps require settlement of any interest receivable, if applicable, semiannually. The settlement dates coincide with the dates on which interest is payable on the renewed facility.

Sensitivity

The consolidated statement of profit or loss is sensitive to higher/lower interest expenses from borrowings as a result of changes in interest rates as the Group’s bank facilities have a variable interest rate. Equity is not impacted as no hedge accounting is applied. Additionally, an increase or decrease of the Euribor has an impact on the fair value of the Group’s

F-88

Table of Contents

interest rate caps. The impact on the loss for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 as a result of a change in interest rates is as follows:

(in €‘000)	Impact on pre-tax loss
	2023	2022
Interest rates – increase by 10 basis points*	309	586
Interest rates – decrease by 10 basis points*	(346)	(629)

*Keeping all other variables constant.

Global regulators and central banks have been driving international efforts to reform key benchmark interest rates. The market is therefore in transition to alternative risk-free reference rates. Although limited impact is expected on the Euribor, the Group monitors the implications of such a phase out and the market developments. The Group has no interest rate hedging relationships which are affected by the reform and does not expect any significant impact on existing contracts due to a change in the interest rates.

Investments price risk

Exposure

The Group’s exposure to equity securities price risk arises from investments held by the group and classified in the consolidated statement of financial position as at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) as detailed in Note 19. The price risk is mitigated by monitoring quarterly valuation updates and forecasts of future cash flows and aligning the business strategy accordingly.

Sensitivity

The table below summarizes the impact of increases/decreases of the price of equity securities acquired in 2022 on the group’s equity through OCI reserve for the period. The analysis is based on the assumption that the fair value of the equity securities held by the group has increased or decreased by 40%, with all other variables held constant.

(in €‘000)	Impact on Group's equity
	2023	2022
Fair Value – increase by 4,000 basis points	6,623	12,556
Fair Value – decrease by 4,000 basis points	(6,623)	(12,556)

Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income

The amounts recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to the investment in equity securities held by the group are disclosed in Note 19.

Commodities price risk

Exposure

The Group’s exposure to commodities price risk arises from fluctuations in the energy market prices. The Group concluded long-term fixed price PPAs for wind and solar energy, with the aim to cover at least 80% of the Group's electricity supply

F-89

Table of Contents

with these agreements, in order to hedge against fluctuations in energy prices and secure a long-term and sustainable supply of renewable electricity. These agreements cover the period until the end of 2035.

During the year ended December 31, 2023 the Group has covered 52% of the total electricity consumption in the Netherlands and Germany with the supply from PPAs. The average market prices of renewable electricity were €96 and €95 per MWh in the Netherlands and Germany respectively.

Analysis

The table below summarizes the contractual electricity supply profile (P50) from all PPAs at Allego as at December 31, 2023, resulting in an average expected annual coverage of 25% of the total Group electricity supply till the end of 2035:

	Contractual electricity production
(in GWh)	Total	Less than 12 months	1–5 years	More than 5 years
The Netherlands	2,419	142	1,000	1,277
Germany	880	5	361	514
Average expected coverage	25%	77%	56%	17%

The Group is also exposed to the risk of the market prices being lower than the contractual prices, resulting in high electricity costs for the Group. In this case cost of electricity purchased under the PPAs could be passed on to EV customers.

Credit risk

The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables and contract assets) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks.

Risk management

Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. The Group is doing business with creditworthy companies and has a strict policy of cash collection.

Customer credit risk is managed by the Finance department subject to the Group’s established policy, procedures and control relating to customer credit risk management. The credit quality of customers is assessed, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Outstanding customer receivables and contract assets are regularly monitored, and any major orders are generally covered by prepayments or other forms of credit insurance obtained from reputable banks and other financial institutions.

At December 31, 2023, the Group had 25 customers (December 31, 2022: 14) that owed the Group more than €470 thousand (December 31, 2022: €450 thousand) each and accounted for approximately 78% (December 31, 2022: 86%) of the total amount of trade receivables and contract assets. There were 2 customers (December 31, 2022: 3) with a balance greater than €4,700 thousand (December 31, 2022: €4,500 thousand) accounting for just over 32% (December 31, 2022: 49%) of the total amount of trade receivables and contract assets.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group has five types of financial assets that are subject to the expected credit loss (“ECL”) model:

•trade receivables;

•contract assets;

•pledged bank balances;

•security deposits;

•cash and cash equivalents.

While cash and cash equivalents, security deposits and pledged bank balances (refer to Note 22 and Note 19, respectively) are also subject to the impairment requirements of IFRS 9, no impairments were required to be recognized on these financial assets due to their definition of being subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

F-90

Table of Contents

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets disclosed in Note 31.

The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring ECLs which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables and contract assets.

The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 36 months before December 31, 2023 and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The Group has considered but not identified any forward-looking factors which require an adjustment of the historical loss rates based on expected changes in these factors.

On that basis, the loss allowance as at December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was determined as follows for trade receivables and contract assets:

(in €‘000)	Current		1 – 30  days past  due		31 –60  days past  due		61 –90  days past  due		91+ days  past due		Total
As at December 31, 2022
Expected loss rate (in %)	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%
Gross carrying amount – trade receivables	31,404		5,337		3,189		292		2,448		42,670
Gross carrying amount – contract assets	1,512		—		—		—		—		1,512
Loss allowance	—		—		—		—		—		—
As at December 31, 2023
Expected loss rate (in %)	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%	0.00	%
Gross carrying amount – trade receivables	32,931		7,459		897		(5,280)		11,221		47,228
Gross carrying amount – contract assets	—		—		—		—		—		—
Loss allowance	—		—		—		—		—		—

Trade receivables and contract assets are written off where there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the Group, and a failure to make contractual payments for a period of over 60 days past due.

For the loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets for each period presented, refer to Note 20.

Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities to meet obligations when due and to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group maintains flexibility in funding by maintaining availability under committed credit lines. The Group has been predominantly contracting customers of sound commercial standing and their payment behavior was generally good. Refer to Note 2.2 for details about the Group’s financial position and the going concern assumption applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

As disclosed in Note 19, the Group has pledged bank balances to secure the payment of interest and commitment fees to the Group’s external lenders and pledged bank balances in relation to bank guarantees issued to suppliers of the Group.

The main risk for the Group is not meeting the debt covenants or drawdown requirements described in Note 34. In this case, funding via the renewed facility would not be available. The Group monitors the liquidity risk on a weekly basis. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s cash and cash equivalents (Note 22) on the basis of expected cash flows. This is generally carried out at Group level, in accordance with practice and limits set by the Group. In addition, the Group’s liquidity management policy involves projecting cash flows and considering the level of liquid assets necessary to meet these, monitoring balance sheet liquidity ratios against internal and external regulatory requirements and maintaining debt financing plans. The Group assessed the concentration of risk with respect to refinancing its debt and concluded it to be low.

Financing arrangements

The Group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities for each reporting period presented:

(in €‘000)	December 31, 2023	December 31, 2022
Expiring beyond one year—renewed facility	8,390	120,790

As indicated in Note 25, the Group has refinanced its old facility in December 2022. The renewed facility is available to be drawn if the drawdown covenants are met, in euros and has an average maturity of approximately 5 years (December 31, 2022: 5 years).

As at December 31, 2023, €8,390 thousand of the undrawn facilities relate to undrawn capital expenditures facility.

Maturities of financial liabilities

The table below analyzes the Group’s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on their contractual maturities. The table includes both non-derivative and derivative financial liabilities.

The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows (including interest payments). Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not significant.

34    Capital management

For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes issued capital, share premium and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. Refer to Note 23 and Note 24 for the quantitative disclosures of the Company’s share capital, share premium and other reserves.

The objective of capital management is to secure financial flexibility to maintain long-term business operations. The Group manages its capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may amongst others issue new shares or other financial instruments.

The Group has not paid any dividends since its incorporation. The Group expects to retain all earnings, if any, generated by operations for the development and growth of its business and does not anticipate paying any dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future. In December 2022, the Group has secured financing for its operations through a renewed facility, which is disclosed in Note 25.

No changes were made in the objectives for managing capital during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Loan covenants

Under the terms of the renewed facility, the Group is required to comply with the following financial covenants related to interest and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) at the consolidated level of the Group:

1.Leverage ratio: calculated on a consolidated level as (total net debt 12 / Group EBITDA).

2.Interest cover ratio: calculated on a consolidated basis as (Group EBITDA / interest paid).

The covenants shall be determined based on the IFRS financial statements of the Group, as required by the terms and conditions of the renewed facility. The compliance with these covenants shall be tested every six months, with the testing period being twelve months ending December 31 and June 30. The first testing date of the interest cover ratio was June 30, 2023. The first testing date of the leverage ratio is June 30, 2024.

The target covenant ratios are determined based on a twelve-month running basis and are as follows:

Testing period ending on	Leverage ratio	Interest cover ratio
June 30, 2023	Unconditional	-0.8x
December 31, 2023	Unconditional	-0.9x
June 30, 2024	33.9x	0.4x
December 31, 2024	5.4x	2.3x
June 30, 2025	3.2x	3.8x
December 31, 2025	2.2x	5.5x
June 30, 2026	2.2x	5.5x
December 31, 2026	2.2x	5.5x
June 30, 2027	2.2x	5.5x

The Group may within ten business days from the occurrence of a breach or the anticipated breach of the loan covenants remedy such default by providing evidence of receipt of new funding, sufficient to cure such breach (“equity cure right”). Such remediation is available for not more than two consecutive testing dates and four times over the duration of the renewed facility. In case if the covenants breach is not cured, such a breach is considered a default and could lead to the cancellation of the total undrawn commitments and the loan to become immediately due and payable.

Additionally, the following ratios are set as drawstop event conditions for the part of the renewed facility aimed at financing and refinancing certain capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions, which if breached prior to the anticipated utilization of the capex portion of the renewed facility – will result in the drawdown stop:

•Group EBITDA margin ratio: calculated on a consolidated level as (Group EBITDA / Group Revenue).

•Group EBITDA amount: calculated on a consolidated level

•Fast/ultra-fast charging equipment utilization rate: calculated on a consolidated level as (average number of sessions over the relevant Group charger base, divided by 50).

12 Total net debt is calculated as external borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

F-93

Table of Contents

The target drawdown stop conditions are determined based on a twelve-month running basis and are as follows:

Testing period ending on	EBITDA margin (drawstop)		EBITDA (drawstop)			Fast/ultra-fast charging equipment utilization rate (drawstop)
June 30, 2023	-4.3	%	€	(8.5)	million	10.4	%
December 31, 2023	-5.8	%	€	(11.6)	million	11.5	%
June 30, 2024	8.1	%	€	19.8	million	12.7	%
December 31, 2024	19.4	%	€	68.2	million	12.9	%
June 30, 2025	24.1	%	€	111.2	million	14.2	%
December 31, 2025	27.3	%	€	157.5	million	15.5	%
June 30, 2026	28.9	%	€	200.0	million	16.6	%
December 31, 2026	Unconditional		Unconditional			Unconditional
June 30, 2027	Unconditional		Unconditional			Unconditional

Breaching the requirements would cause a drawdown stop. Continuing breaches in the drawstop conditions would permit the bank to cancel the total undrawn commitments. The Group may within twenty business days from the occurrence of a drawstop event provide a remedial plan setting out the actions, steps and/or measures (which may include a proposal for adjustments of the financial covenants' or utilization rate's levels) which are proposed to be implemented in order to remedy such drawstop event.

In the preparation of its consolidated financial statements, the Group assessed whether information about the existence of the covenant and its terms is material information, considering both the consequences and the likelihood of a breach occurring. The consequences of a covenant breach have been described in this note. A covenant breach would affect the Group’s financial position and cash flows in a way that could reasonably be expected to influence the decisions of the primary users of these consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 2.2 for additional information.

The Group has complied with these covenants in the reporting period ended December 31, 2023. The actual interest cover ratio for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 was 0.6.

35    Commitments and contingencies

Purchase commitments for chargers and charging infrastructure

Significant expenditures for chargers and charging infrastructure contracted for, but not recognized as liabilities, as at December 31, 2023 were €4,890 thousand (December 31, 2022: €2,452 thousand). The Group uses these assets either as own chargers (property, plant and equipment) or as charging equipment to fulfill its obligations under development contracts entered into with its customers (inventory).

Purchase commitments for electricity

As disclosed in Note 29, Allego has entered into medium and long-term power purchase agreements for electricity. Significant expenditures for renewable electricity contracted for period between 2024 and 2035, but not recognized as liabilities, as at December 31, 2023 were €256,554 thousand (December 31, 2022: €69,701 thousand). Other purchase commitments for electricity contracted for, but not recognized as liabilities, as at December 31, 2023 were €27,960 thousand (December 31, 2022: €35,990 thousand). These commitments refer to periods between 2024 and 2027. The expected contractual electricity production till the end of 2035 is further detailed in Note 33.

Guarantees

On December 19, 2022, the Group has entered into a renewed facility agreement with a group of lenders led by Société Générale and Banco Santander, which included up to €30,000 thousand to be used for issuance of guarantees and letters of credit, refer to Note 25. The first letters of credit were issued on October 19, 2023 to Solarpark Lindenhof GmbH, as follows: one letter of credit from Banco Santander for the maximum original amount of €6,250 thousand and one letter of credit from Société Générale for the maximum original amount of €6,250 thousand. These letters of credit are not payable by the Group as of December 31, 2023, and the liability will be triggered only in case of non-delivery of physical settlement under the power purchase agreement. The commencement date of the operations of the Solarpark plant is planned to be in September 2024.

36    Related-party transactions

Balances and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties of the Company, have been eliminated on consolidation and are not disclosed in this note. Details of transactions between the Group and other related parties are disclosed below.

Relationship with the Mega-E Group

After the sale of Mega-E Charging B.V. (“Mega-E”) to Meridiam EM SAS, Mega-E established subsidiaries and formed the Mega-E Group. As a result of the sale, Mega-E and its subsidiaries (the “Mega-E Group”) became related parties under common control until the Group resumed the control over Mega-E Group on March 16, 2022 upon the SPAC Transaction (please also refer to Note 4, Note 36.1 and Note 36.2 for more information).

Prior to the acquisition of Mega-E by the Group on March 16, 2022, the relationship between the Group and the Mega-E Group was that of a customer and service provider. Subsequent to the sale to Meridiam EM SAS, the Group entered into several development and O&M contracts with the Mega-E Group to construct and operate charging stations across Europe. The development agreements related to the engineering, design, procurement, delivery, construction, installation, testing and commissioning of electric vehicle charging infrastructure at designated areas. The Group received a fixed contract price for these services.

The O&M agreements related to the operation and maintenance of the delivered electric vehicle charging infrastructure by the Group to the Mega-E Group. The services consisted 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 received a service fee that contains both fixed and variable fees per charging session.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, one of the directors of the Group was also an executive director of Mega-E. As at December 31, 2021, the director resigned from the Group. Additionally, one of the non-executive directors of the Group was also a non-executive director of Mega-E.

Relationship with EV Cars

EV Cars is a related party under common control of Meridiam EM SAS. On June 28, 2021, the Group entered into a contract with EV Cars for the design, construction, installation and operation and maintenance of charging stations.

Voltalis

Upon completion of the MOMA acquisition, Voltalis became a related party of the Group in accordance with the criteria outlined in IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures through its relationship with Meridiam SAS. Madeleine — the majority shareholder of the Company — is indirectly owned by Meridiam. Voltalis is considered to be a controlled investment of Meridiam. Consequently, the Group and Voltalis are related parties and the related-party transactions have been disclosed in the table in this note.

The transactions with Mega-E until March 16, 2022, are considered related-party transactions. The Group obtained control of Mega-E as of that date. All subsequent transactions are therefore considered to be intra-group transactions and have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements.

Share-based payment expenses

On December 16, 2020, the Company’s then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into an agreement, under which share-based payment awards are provided to an external consulting firm. Madeleine has the obligation to settle the agreement, but the Group accounts for the agreement as a share-based payment arrangement as the Group receives services from the consulting firm under the agreement. The Group does not have an obligation to settle the share-based payment awards with the consulting firm in cash or equity instruments and therefore the total arrangement is classified as an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement. On July 28, 2021, Spartan and the Company signed a BCA. Madeleine and the external consulting firm were also parties to the BCA. On February 28, 2022, the BCA was amended whereby the parties modified the thresholds of the First Special Fees Agreement that determine whether the fees payable in cash (“Part A”) to the external consulting firm will be paid in cash, shares or a combination of cash and shares, contingent upon the number of redemptions that will result from the SPAC Transaction. The amendment did not change the accounting treatment of the First Special Fees Agreement, as the total First Special Fees Agreement is classified as an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement, and the amendment did not give rise to an incremental fair value of the share-based payment arrangement. Refer to Note 11.1 for details on the First Special Fees Agreement.

On February 25, 2022, the Company’s then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into a Second Special Fees Agreement, under which share-based payment awards are provided to an external consulting firm. On April 20, 2022, the Second Special Fees Agreement was novated from Madeleine to Allego. Before the novation, Madeleine had the obligation to settle the agreement, and the Group accounted for the Second Special Fees Agreement as a share-based payment arrangement as the Group receives services from the consulting firm under the agreement. The Group did not have an obligation to settle the share-based payment awards with the consulting firm and therefore the total arrangement was classified as an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement. Following the novation, the Group has the obligation to settle the share-based payment awards with the consulting firm in cash and therefore the total arrangement was classified as a cash-settled share-based payment arrangement. Refer to Note 11.2 for details on the Second Special Fees Agreement.

Other payments to key management

This amount represents a one-time payment made by the Company to a member of management for their outstanding shares in an acquired subsidiary during 2022.

36.3. Remuneration of key management personnel

Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group. The Group considers all executive and non-executive members of the Board of Directors and the Executive Board to be key management personnel as defined in IAS 24 Related party disclosures. The Executive Board consists of the chief executive officer (CEO), the chief financial officer (CFO) and the chief technology officer (CTO).

The following remuneration of key management personnel was recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021:

(in €‘000)	2023	2022	2021

Share-based payments	14,422	41,230	89,636
Total	17,632	46,492	90,722

Share-based payments - Special Fee Agreements

On December 16, 2020, the Company’s then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into a First Special Fees Agreement, under which share-based payment awards are provided to an external consulting firm (refer to Note 11.1 for details). On February 25, 2022, the Company’s then immediate parent entity — Madeleine — entered into a Second Special Fees Agreement with the same external consulting firm as for the First Special Fees Agreement (refer to Note 11.2 for details). Prior to joining the Company as members of the Executive Board, two directors were contractors of the external consulting firm, in which capacity they provided management services related to the Company to Madeleine, the Company’s immediate shareholder.

The directors are entitled to compensation from the external consulting firm in the form of a fixed percentage of the total benefits (including the proceeds from a future sale of shares in the Company) that the external consulting firm will generate under the agreement. Therefore, the Group has considered that a portion of the share-based payment expenses related to the Special Fees Agreements represents key management compensation and accordingly recognized that portion as employee benefits expenses within general and administrative expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2023, that portion of the share-based payment expenses related to Special Fees Agreements amounted to €3,480 thousand (2022: €26,869 thousand, 2021: €89,636 thousand).

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the remaining amount of the total share-based payment expenses related to the Special Fees Agreement of €6,607 thousand (2022: €58,145 thousand, 2021: €202,201 thousand) is compensation for external consulting services. Therefore, the Group has recognized this amount as legal, accounting and consulting fees, within general and administrative expenses (refer to Note 9 and Note 11 for details).

Share-based payments - Management Incentive Plan

In March 2022, the Company established the management incentive plan and during the year ended December 31, 2023, issued the grant options and the performance options to the key management. These options are classified as equity-settled share-based payment transactions as the settlements with the participants shall be done using the Company’s shares. The vested options were recognized at fair value at the issuance date as an employee benefits expense in the general and

administrative expenses, with a corresponding increase in equity. Refer to Note 11.3 for details on the Management Incentive Plan.

Share-based payments - Long Term Incentive Plan

The Allego Board and the Compensation Committee approved the general framework for the Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") on the Closing Date. The purpose of the LTIP is to provide eligible directors and employees the opportunity to receive stock-based incentive awards for employee motivation and retention and to align the economic interests of such persons with those of Allego’s shareholders. The delivery of certain shares or other instruments under the LTIP to directors and key management are agreed and approved in certain Allego Board meetings. On December 20, 2022, the Allego Board approved a detailed plan for the LTIP for future years. These options are classified as equity-settled share-based payment transactions as the settlements with the participants shall be done using the Company’s shares. The vested options were recognized at fair value at the issuance date as an employee benefits expense in the general and administrative expenses, with a corresponding increase in equity. Refer to Note 11.4 for details on the Long Term Incentive Plan.
