SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS

DEAR STAKEHOLDERS,

We operate in a fast-moving industry.. Heightened competition and rapid technological developments are constant.. We are excited by the resulting market opportunities, as we continue creating the most innovative technologies to help shape tomorrow's mobility.. Our position for future growth is substantiated by a more simplified business model following the divestment of our Telematics business, longer-term contracts in both Automotive and Enterprise businesses, as well as a strong balance sheet..

We continue working towards our vision of a safe, connected, autonomous world that is free of congestion and emissions.. This isn't possible without our people.. We go to great lengths to make sure we hire the right talent, and ensure we retain them through training and by advancing their careers within our organization..

Maps remain central to everything we do.. We have built a leading and efficient mapmaking platform which is continuously improved.. Investments in machine learning means that the cost per modification is declining while the quality of our maps is improving rapidly.. The efficiency of our mapmaking capabilities is a significant competitive advantage for TomTom..

We continue to progress in our product offerings.. In connected driver navigation, we announced multiple new deals and launched a new service, TomTom IQ Maps, which is a machine learning- based mechanism that allows seamless over-the-air map updates to in-dash navigation systems.. Our electric vehicle (EV) solutions are helping EVs reach the mainstream sooner, with our APIs serving as tools to reduce range anxiety for EV drivers..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

We are excited about the trends that are shaping our industry and which provide us with significant growth opportunities today, tomorrow and into the future.

Today, more than 1..5 million level 1 and 2 assisted driving systems have integrated our ADAS Map.. Our ADAS Map contains information on curvature, gradient, and speed restrictions to further automate the driving experience, allowing for better path planning, improving safety and fuel efficiency..

We won multiple HD Maps deals this year, securing market leadership in the autonomous driving evolution.. Our HD Maps for autonomous driving help automated vehicles know where they are on the road, plan their path, and determine what's happening around the corner.. To advance our automated driving solutions, we launched our fully autonomous testing vehicle, named Trillian, during the year.. Multiple laser scanners, cameras and radars are built into the vehicle.. This vehicle will allow us to test and improve our autonomous technologies and services..

Our APIs and location-based technologies are central to the work of developers and we maintain strong relationships with location technology players across the automotive and enterprise industries.. Extending our Maps API partnership with Microsoft is a strong proof point of the competitiveness of our portfolio.. During the year, we integrated our technology with Microsoft Connected Vehicle Platform and together, we can offer a system that seamlessly connects the in-car experience with the cloud back-end for services, analytics and more..

What differentiates TomTom from the competition is not only our technology platform.. We can play the role of consolidator of data as a result of our technology, but also due to the independent nature of our company.. The data we collect are used exclusively to improve our products, and not to feed alternative business models.. That, in short, makes us a trusted and non- competing partner at the heart of the alternative mapping community.. As a result, we have close relationships with top technology companies and most of the top 25 automakers and tier 1 suppliers..

Moreover, with nearly three decades of experience, we know what drivers want and need better than anyone else.. User experience is a fundamental part of our DNA and heritage.. We interact with end-users directly to test, develop and refine our content and products.. This competitive advantage distinguishes TomTom from some of our peers, especially in the automotive context..

We are excited about the trends that are shaping our industry and which provide us with significant growth opportunities today, tomorrow and into the future.. I am proud of what we have achieved this year.. We love what we do and are better prepared than ever to face the future..

I would like to thank all our stakeholders: our shareholders for their continued support and confidence in TomTom; our customers for their loyalty and valuable feedback that keeps us innovating; and our employees for their commitment, energy and hard work..

Our mission is to create the technologies that help shape tomorrow's mobility

FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT

Our core technologies are highly-accurate maps, navigation software, real- time traffic and Maps APIs.

MAPS

Building on nearly three decades of mapmaking expertise, we offer an extensive digital map database with global coverage.. We provide standard-definition maps for humans and high-definition maps for machines, as well as advanced driver assistance maps..

Continuously releasable maps

A primary source of mapmaking is big data.. Our state-of-the-art transactional map- production platform is highly capable of handling enormous amounts of data and allows us to rapidly close the loop between detecting changes in the real world and updating the map.. This platform deploys automation and artificial intelligence to achieve shorter cycle times, enhancing efficiency and quality.. We continue to invest and further develop the platform to achieve even greater gains..

We continued to push our boundaries during 2019 as we further enhanced our mapmaking platform.. Over 2..3 billion modifications were completed in a single month.. This is nearly 70% more than our systems were capable of at the start of the year, demonstrating our capacity to capture and process big data faster and at scale.. Nearly 90% of these changes are done through automated processes..

The productivity and cost efficiency of our mapmaking platform is crucial to the future of

For real-time maps it's essential that a transactional map production system is in place. This enables changes to be made independently and verified automatically. Having such production systems in TomTom is a huge step towards real-time mapmaking.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

In our view, we have the best transactional mapmaking platform in the world, increasingly making headways in automation, which is core to developing constantly refreshed maps faster and at lower cost..

To deliver fast, accurate and continuously up- to-date maps, we implement a highly efficient, multi-disciplinary approach that combines best-in-class mapmaking methods with growing community input from hundreds of millions of data sources.. Altogether, more than 600 million sources generate around 3..5 billion kilometers of probe data each day, giving us access to one of the largest networks of connected devices on the market..

mapmaking, as even more data will be collected and faster processing will be mandatory in order to meet the demands of an ever-expanding connected world, with users demanding online maps that are faster, more accurate and always up to date..

KEY FIGURES

>>Our global SD Map covers over 69 million km of roads, over 426 million address points and over 131 million POIs..

>>Our ADAS Map for driver assistance covers nearly 6 million km of roads across all continents..

>>Our HD Map covers over 500 thousand km of roads across Europe, the US, Japan and South Korea..

NAVIGATION

We deliver a global, connected navigation experience.. It is flexible and customizable for easy integration into any vehicle that will be driven by a human, a computer, or both.. We will continue to invest in providing the best user experience in navigation, allowing for the most accurate routing and expected time of arrival (ETA), with a user interface that is safe, intuitive and easy to use..

NavKit, our navigation engine, is the foundation of many of our products.. This engine implements our navigation algorithms and provides APIs that enable the development

of fully customized navigation applications.. NavKit is fully portable to any high-level operating system..

Our navigation software components support relevant automotive standards such as TPEG, NDS, and ADASIS.. Based on the ISO 25010 standard, our navigation software undergoes regular quality checks by TIOBE, the software quality company, and for a number of years, we have led in the top-two ranks of all quality categories..

Highly accurate map data, combined with real-time information on traffic and weather make it possible to drive with foresight. We use artificial intelligence to

help process large amounts of data fast and efficiently.

CONNECTED SERVICES

TomTom is the global leader of traffic and travel information services.. Our extensive portfolio of cloud-based services includes traffic information, speed cameras, parking, fuel price information, electric vehicle stations and weather, which provide a real-time,value-added layer to our mapping technology.. These services are widely used across automotive and smartphone manufacturers, smart mobility platforms, application developers, government organizations and a wealth of additional customers.. This comprehensive product portfolio also includes road data analytics to help improve mobility through products and services that enable better decision-making on the road..

Traffic information service

Our industry-leading traffic service, TomTom Traffic, provides drivers with highly accurate measurements of traffic jams and delays for better route calculation, ETA and dynamic safety content such as traffic jam tail warnings..

We use a wide range of sources to generate real-time traffic information.. Our growing community of over 600 million connected devices highlights the success of our traffic information service.. These data sources generate over 61 billion anonymous location measurements every day.. We fuse the community input's source data to provide precise and up-to-date traffic information for highways, major roads and secondary roads on a global scale..

Our traffic technology combines both traffic flow and incident data from all available sources into a single database, equipping road users with the most relevant and up-to- date information..

Optimizing traffic data consumption

In 2019, we launched Flexible Radius, a new TomTom Traffic feature that allows automakers to dynamically change how traffic information is delivered based on a driver's current route..

Rather than delivering traffic data for a large radius, while many drives are shorter than 50 kilometers, the service works by only sending relevant information..

The result is a service that significantly reduces traffic data consumption and the associated costs for automakers, without compromising quality.. It is also fully configurable and adaptable to automakers' requirements and local market needs..

EV charging stations

This service is dedicated to supporting car manufacturers in electric vehicle (EV) charging.. The service integrates into an embedded navigation system to give drivers an overview of nearby available charging stations.. This reduces range anxiety, one of the main barriers of purchasing an EV.. We source EV charging station information data from leading third parties and integrate it with our maps to offer one consistent database..

In 2019, we entered into an agreement with ChargeHub, a leading aggregator and digital platform for EV charging stations, which will allow us to provide our users with access to one of the largest databases of public EV charging stations in North America..

KEY FIGURES

>>Real-time traffic information service available in 81 countries..

>>Real-time information availability on over 300 thousand EV charging stations in 53 countries..

Autonomous driving will completely transform the way people get around.. It will increase vehicle safety, comfort and efficiency to levels beyond imagination.. Advanced driver assistance systems in certain vehicles is already a reality, with the evolution to fully autonomous vehicles expected in the long term..

ADAS Map

Our map for assisted driving includes map attributes such as road gradient, curvature, speed limit and other traffic signs.. These attributes fulfill a broad range of applications that increase comfort, safety and fuel efficiency today, and will be used for autonomous driving.. Current customer use cases include Predictive Powertrain Control, Highway Pilot, and Adaptive Cruise Control..

HD Map

Our map for autonomous driving is built on nearly three decades of expertise in digital mapping.. It allows self-driving vehicles to safely and precisely locate themselves on the road, build a detailed model of the surrounding environment together with the vehicle sensors, and plan the path to their destination..

RoadDNA

Vehicle sensors alone cannot determine a vehicle's exact location in a specific lane on a given road.. Our RoadDNA suite can.. It is a set of localization data in the map, tailored to each type of sensor.. Our patented technology delivers a highly optimized, 3D lateral and longitudinal view of the roadway.. A vehicle can then correlate RoadDNA data with data obtained by its own sensors in real time to position itself on the road with centimeter-level accuracy, even while traveling at high speeds..

By offering a broad suite of RoadDNA localization data, we give our customers the freedom to use different sensors and different localization techniques, achieving precise localization in a storage- and processing- friendly format..

AutoStream

Changes on roads happen every day..

We developed TomTom AutoStream to deliver the most up-to-date map from the cloud to the vehicle in real-time..

TomTom AutoStream is on demand, with minimal latency and minimal bandwidth..

It comes as a full solution, including an on-board software component with smart logic to reduce complexity and shorten development time for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers..

TOMTOM ADAS MAP ADVANTAGES

Every single feature in our ADAS Map has its own unique advantages and added value to traditional driver assistance systems:

>>Leveraging curvature information from the TomTom ADAS Map, a vehicle can anticipate a sharp turn.. This avoids harsh braking that would happen when relying only on sensors and ultimately provides a more comfortable ride..

>>Gradient information can be used as input for gear selection and speed control.. This helps vehicles drive efficiently both uphill and downhill, saving time and money..

>>For guidance at junctions, roundabouts and intersections, lane information is used to guide the vehicle to the correct lane and avoid last-minute lane changes - a key cause

of accidents..

>>Many cars today rely on a camera to recognize speed limit and traffic sign information, yet cameras can misinterpret traffic signs, detect wrong speed limits from adjacent roads and suffer from poor visibility.. Traffic signs and speed limit data from the TomTom ADAS Map improve driver safety and increases vehicle NCAP safety ratings.. Furthermore, new EU legislation requires Intelligent Speed Assistance functionality in all new cars from 2022 onwards to include camera and/or digital maps to inform the driver of the legal speed limit..

13

As vehicle sensors cannot see around corners, an HD Map is needed to anticipate what's ahead. If an autonomous vehicle doesn't have all the information available, then the self-driving experience will be subpar when the vehicle encounters something unexpected.

Connected in-vehicle navigation Enabling drivers to expand their connected digital life to their vehicles throughin-vehiclenavigation and infotainment systems..

More than a quarter of new car sales today are from connected vehicles - with close to 100 million new cars produced every year,

40 million in Europe and North America alone.. We see continued growth in connected in- vehicle navigation, as we continue innovating to position ourselves as a trusted full-stack navigation system provider with the best end- user experience across all geographic regions.. Our navigation solutions work across brands, models and geographies while meeting stringent demands for costs, speed, quality and simplicity.. More and more, drivers demand connected, online in-vehicle services that are on par with smartphones and apps.. The market is shifting in response with connectivity enabling us to further capitalize on our software, over-the-air map updates and sensor data as we monetize new services.. For example, in 2019 we launched Flexible Radius to deliver TomTom Traffic more efficiently and IQ Maps to deliver seamless over- the-air map updates to embedded, connected navigation systems..

Both services focus on contextual data delivery in order to reduce costs for automakers while increasing the benefits for drivers..

CONTINUED PROGRESS

In 2019, MG India chose our full stack of navigation components to power the MG Connected Car.. The vehicle uses our award-winning navigation and routing software, live traffic services, and is the launch customer for our groundbreaking new service, TomTom IQ Maps.. TomTom IQ Maps leverages AI to automatically update the parts of the map that are most relevant to the driver.. Enabled by connectivity, the personalized approach ensures the map is always up-to-date without any interaction from the driver or the automaker..

Autonomous driving

Autonomous driving technology is generating significant interest in new, detailed maps that will help transform the way we think about driving.. The journey to fully autonomous driving is developing along a six-level scale, evolving from level 0, where the driver is in full control, to level 5, where the vehicle is in full control.. Across all levels, vehicles require maps that are significantly different from the maps used for driver navigation..

As the driving task shifts from the driver to the vehicle, the map must shift to serve a machine instead of a human.. ADAS, or advanced driver assistance systems, enables vehicles to help make driving simpler and safer for people through adaptive cruise control or lane guidance systems.. As it becomes mainstream, it will play a crucial role in preparing the technology for higher degrees of automation, eventually leading to autonomous vehicles..

OEMs are progressing rapidly in adopting ADAS features, with numerous manufacturers having already launched level 1- and level 2-enabled vehicles.. Our ADAS maps already power more than 1..5 million vehicles on the road today, and we expect this number to continuously increase over the next few years..

The medium-term opportunities for TomTom lie in ADAS maps, while HD Maps will drive long-term value.. Current market expectation is that by 2025, highly automated vehicles will be ready for the roads, with HD Maps essential for the safety and comfort of autonomous vehicles.. To achieve this timeline, automakers are already sourcing HD Map deals..

As we move into a more autonomous driving experience, SD Maps, navigation and online services, such as traffic information, will continue to be sourced by OEMs..

Our expectation is that even at Level 4 or 5, where the vehicle will drive itself, we see opportunities to continue to provide our current portfolio of maps, navigation and online services, as the passengers will continue to need to locate themselves and interact with the machine responsible for driving..

EARLY POSITION IN HD MAPS MARKET

In 2019, we closed our first deals for HD Maps with multiple global automakers, placing TomTom ahead of the competition, as we pursue further deals..

OUR FIVE RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS PILLARS 1. IMPROVING ROAD SAFETY

More than 3,000 people die in road accidents every day.. Part of TomTom's mission is to change this reality.. We create technologies that make driving safer - for both human drivers and self- driving cars..

TomTom Maps are made to help users move more efficiently and safer, delivering key information with speed, relevancy and accuracy.. We call this approach contextual delivery, helping make roads safer across all levels of automation..

Already more than 1..5 million Level 1 and Level

2-enabled vehicles - both private and commercial

  • and from multiple vehicle manufacturers are powered by TomTom's HD Map for automated driving.. From helping commercial vehicles to drive more efficiently, to keeping passenger cars safe on the highway, the TomTom HD Map for autonomous driving is paving the way for an autonomous - and thus - safer future.. Using TomTom HD Map for driver assistance and safety warnings can help automakers to achieve higher Euro NCAP ratings..

TomTom Traffic Index

The Traffic Index is a key initiative in our ongoing mission to create a safer, cleaner, congestion-free world together with our partners and drivers.. Created to help cities around the world combat severe mobility challenges, the TomTom Traffic Index portal provides free access to live and historical traffic and travel information..

The TomTom Traffic Index provides drivers, city planners, auto manufacturers and policy makers with statistics and information about congestion levels in 403 cities across 56 countries on six continents..

Now in its 8th year, the Index gives even more historical insight into congestion in urban centers and offers ideas about how traffic can be alleviated.. This year we have added in total 13 cities in India, Japan, Egypt, Colombia, Peru, Ukraine, Israel and Iceland for the first time..

2. REDUCING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT TomTom recognizes that climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing the world today.. Our products and services inherently contribute to a cleaner world and thereby address climate change issues.. We help everyone - people, cities, governments and businesses - make smarter decisions and into a world with less emissions from driving..

Our traffic information service, for instance, provides drivers with highly accurate measurements of traffic jams and delays for better route calculation.. Using traffic information can ease traffic congestion and reduce emissions as a result..

During the year, we also launched a new, free service available to cities, road authorities, event organizers and others seeking to reduce congestion, the TomTom Road Event Reporter.. It is designed to provide information on roadwork or stoppages to millions of digital map users, improving roadway safety and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as it reduces the likelihood of congestion as drivers are informed of potential blockages before they occur, giving them time to find an alternative route..

We are enabling the future of mobility, greener and more sustainable, with our products and services.. Vehicles using the TomTom ADAS Map have proved to achieve up to 5% fuel savings, as our technology, integrated within the in-vehicle control systems, accurately anticipates the road ahead and allows for the vehicle to pro-actively adapt speed and gear shifting.. TomTom's highly-accurate ADAS Map is used in Daimler's Predictive Powertrain Control (PPC), an advanced driver assistance system or smart cruise control,

for commercial vehicles.. Trucks use our ADAS Map to automate driving functions on highways and, in Europe, on interurban roads too..

The system leads to a fuel reduction of up to 5% per vehicle, which delivers lower CO2emissions.. The latest PPC technology is available in the new generation of the Mercedes-Benz Actros..

During 2019 we launched the TomTom EV Suite, which is a toolkit that allows developers to build location-based applications for EV drivers.. The TomTom Long Distance EV Routing API and the TomTom EV Charging Stations Availability API will allow for new services that address range anxiety, leading to a reliable and stress-free driving experience and, moreover, an increase in the adoption rates of EV vehicles by drivers..

Further, and based on our Environmental Policy, we are continually taking steps to reduce our environmental impact through our responsible internal business practices: our Go Green programs, our waste take back and recycling efforts, and driving a responsible supply chain..

Environmental Policy

Our Environmental Policy gives guidance to our employees, suppliers, customers and other relevant stakeholders on how we uphold our environmental standards in everything we do, and helps us keep track of our goals, specific targets and continuous progress..

Our Environmental Policy and associated activities are part of our Social and Environmental Management System (SEMS), which helps us in our efforts to continuously improve our responsible business practices and supports our vision.. SEMS is compliant with the requirements of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001:2015 and

the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA).. Regular audits are performed by both SEMS internal auditors and Group Internal Audit, as a control mechanism.. TomTom has been ISO 14001 certified since 2017 and we plan to continue improving, prolonging this ISO certification..

We are working towards a future where vehicles are electric, shared and autonomous, eliminating congestion and emissions.

Go Green

We aim to create an organization where sustainability is seamlessly integrated into the design, maintenance, and use of our internal facilities throughout the world.. To support this, we launched three Go Green programs in 2019 that reduce our environmental impact..

Global recycling

We aim to introduce recycling in all TomTom offices worldwide, focused on increasing recycled waste and reducing general waste.. The program entails separating waste at the source and making sure each waste type is processed properly by our suppliers..

In our Dutch offices, our objective is a zero- waste office environment that aligns with sustainability objectives set by the Dutch Government for 2050.. For our Amsterdam offices we set an ambitious goal of reducing our general waste from 70% in 2018 to 10% by 2020.. In December 2019, we had already managed to decrease our general waste

to 34%..

Restriction of single-use plastics

We aim to restrict the use of plastics that are used only once before being discarded (either thrown away or recycled).. We have started our efforts in this respect globally in 2019.. The scope of this initiative includes all restaurants, kitchens, pantries and coffee areas of all our global facilities..

Management of energy sources, efficiency and consumption

This program aims to shift towards renewable energy sources while reducing our consumption of both non-renewable or renewable resources.. For our biggest locations, we delivered our

2019 objectives by having started to monitor and measure the use of water, gas and electricity in our facilities with an aim to reduce consumption through technology, operational best practices, and education and awareness.. We also investigated the energy sources

of our offices to determine where we can improve green energy sourcing to reduce our carbon footprint..

In addition, we have introduced LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and Breeam (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology) certification into our real estate strategy.. We will be moving into a new, LEED- certified building in Pune, India, in 2020 and we are working with Breeam In-Use for one of our Amsterdam based offices in 2020..

Waste take-back and recycling

We ensure that we comply with legislation related to restricted substances, takeback programs and recycling in the countries where our products are being sold.. In 2019, we financed the collection and recycling of nearly 444 tons (2018: 507 tons) of waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE),

31 tons (2018: 35 tons) of battery waste and

360 tons (2018: 438 tons) of packaging waste.. In comparison to 2018, our waste output decreased on average by 15% (2018: 30%).. This reflects 100% of the waste from end-of- life TomTom electric and electronic products, batteries and packaging.. Because of our ongoing shift towards providing more data, content and services and a declining market for personal consumer navigation devices (PNDs), we expect to produce less waste

in the coming years, resulting in a smaller environmental footprint..

Driving a responsible supply chain Outsourcing is a key element of our business model.. In fact, the assembly of PNDs, accessories and (reverse) logistics is entirely outsourced.. It is therefore of great importance that our suppliers recognize and observe fundamental human rights, safety and the environment in their operations..

Our Supplier Code sets out the standards and behaviors we require from our suppliers and is based on the RBA Code of Conduct and covers areas like labor, health and safety, environment and ethics.. We ask our major suppliers to sign and comply with this code, to acknowledge our environmental policy and to support our plans and efforts to reduce the environmental footprint of our business activities and improve social, environmental and ethical practices..

In 2019, we completed risk assessments for 100% of our major suppliers using the RBA tools and concluded that there were no high- risk findings.. As a result, we did not conduct any independent supplier audits..

To inspire and encourage young women to explore STEM, TomTom promoted and hosted Girlsday for the sixth time in a row in Amsterdam and Ghent, in partnership with Dutch non-profit VHTO..

Partnership with Codam Coding College

Codam is a coding school in Amsterdam, started in 2019 by TomTom Co-founder Corinne Vigreux.. Codam offers people opportunities regardless of their education, background

or financial situation in order to help them reach their full potential - as well as to help meet the major shortage of IT professionals in Europe.. Our partnership with Codam creates opportunities for its students to leverage shared knowledge, expertise, technology and/ or resources in support of shared goals and commitments with TomTom employees..

Employee initiatives

Our employees organized and sponsored many locally driven initiatives across the globe to give back to their communities.. We motivate our employees to take the initiative to give back to society resulting in great local volunteer programs around the world..

TO THE HEART - GHENT

One of the longest lasting giving back initiative is "To The Heart", an employee driven independent charity organization registered in Belgium.. This organization identifies activities which not only bring fun to the work floor, but also enables financial sponsoring of good cause projects.. To The Heart aims at small grass root projects focused on education and equality, with disadvantaged children

as its main target.. It is the wider TomTom community which passionately participates and makes sure a handful of exciting projects across the globe can be sponsored.. Since its start in 1998 over €250,000 was collected by To The Heart..

RAINBOW HOMES - INDIA

More than 600+ volunteering hours have been spent by our employees in India to educate young girls who were formerly on the streets through the Rainbow Homes program of the Rainbow Foundation India.. This foundation aims at creating a local movement for caring of disadvantaged children through, among others, the provision of sheltering and education..

TomTom Cares

We launched TomTom Cares in September 2019, a global program that enables our

4,500 employees worldwide to do eight hours of paid voluntary activities annually during working hours for a good cause of their choice.. This program was first piloted successfully in the Netherlands.. Already 500+ volunteering hours were contributed by our employees..

REVENUE

Group revenue from continuing operations in 2019 was €701 million, which is 2% higher compared with €687 million in 2018.. Location Technology reported significant year on year revenue growth of 14%, driven by 26% revenue growth in Enterprise and 8% growth in Automotive.. Consumer performed better than expected, with a year on year decline of 13% compared with 23% last year, as the PND market continues its expected decline..

From a regional perspective, 72% of 2019 revenue was generated in Europe (2018: 78%), 19% in North America (2018: 16%) and 9% in the rest of the world (2018: 7%)..

GROSS PROFIT

The gross margin for the year increased substantially to 74% compared with 69% last year, mainly reflecting an increasing proportion of high margin Location Technology revenue in our product mix.. As a result of higher revenue at a higher gross margin, the gross profit for the year was €515 million, 8% higher compared with 2018..

OPERATING EXPENSES

Total operating expenses for 2019 were €746 million compared with €472 million in 2018.. The higher operating expenses are mainly driven by higher amortization and research and development (R&D) expenses.. Furthermore, in 2018 we recorded a one-time gain of €22 million from the settlement of litigation..

Total R&D cash spend during the year, including capital expenditures and capitalized contract costs, amounted to €347 million compared with €299 million last year, mainly reflecting increased investments in our map content and technology and our navigation software to support our growing Location Technology business.. R&D operating expenses increased by €102 million (2019: €323 million; 2018: €221 million), as

a lower proportion of our investments have been capitalized..

Marketing expenses were roughly flat year on year, while selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to €133 million in 2019 from €115 million in 2018, explained by the €22 million one-off gain from litigation in 2018.. The underlying SG&A showed a marked year on year decline resulting from a smaller Consumer organization..

Total depreciation and amortization expenses were €292 million in 2019 compared with €139 million from continuing operations in 2018.. This increase is mainly due to the change in the estimated remaining useful life of our map database, which resulted in an increased amortization expense.. Amortization of technology and databases increased by €153 million year on year..

Given the higher operating expenses, 2019 EBITDA decreased year on year and amounted to €61 million (2018: €142 million)..

NET RESULT FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS

The 2019 net result from continuing operations was a loss of €193 million.. The net result adjusted for deferred revenue, unbilled revenue, acquisition related amortization on a post-tax basis

was €34 million compared with €74 million in 2018.. The adjusted EPS for the year was €0..20 (2018: €0..32)..

NET RESULT FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On 1 April 2019 we completed the sale of our Telematics business to Bridgestone.. Telematics is presented as discontinued operations in the financial statements for all periods presented..

The 2019 net result of discontinued operations including the gain from the sale was €826 million.. For more details on discontinued operations, see note 12 (Discontinued operations and assets held for sale) in the consolidated financial statements..

NET RESULT FROM TOTAL OPERATIONS

The total net result for the year was a profit of €633 million (2018: profit of €45 million)..

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets decreased by €186 million, from €1..5 billion at the start of the year to €1..3 billion in December 2019, driven by a €255 million decrease in other intangible assets due to accelerated amortization partially offset by an increase in cash (including fixed-term deposits).. The increase in cash balance mainly reflects the cash inflow from the Telematics divestment, minus the subsequent return of capital to shareholders..

Deferred revenue increased over the year from €281 million to €369 million driven by payments received from Automotive customers which are required to be deferred..

CASH FLOWS

Total cash flows from operating activities in 2019 was €94 million, a decrease of €135 million compared with €229 million in 2018.. The year on year trend is impacted by the sale of Telematics and lower capitalization of R&D..

Total cash flow from investing activities in 2019 was an inflow of €627 million compared with an outflow of €84 million in 2018.. The inflow includes the net cash received from the sale of Telematics of €873 million, offset by investments made in fixed term deposits.. Excluding these, the cash flow used in investing activities decreased due to a lower proportion of capitalized R&D expenditures this year..

Free cash flow from continuing operations amounted to €66 million, which represents 9% of group revenue..

CASH, LIQUIDITY AND DEBT FINANCING

The cash flow from financing activities for the year was an outflow of €759 million (2018: outflow of €15 million) which included a return of capital to shareholders of €751 million following the divestment of Telematics.. In 2019, 1..6 million options (2018: 0..8 million options) were exercised resulting in a €7 million cash inflow for the year (2018: €4 million)..

At year-end 2019, TomTom had zero utilization of its available credit facility of €75 million and reported a net cash position of €437 million (2018: €252 million)..

RISK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL

31

Comprehensive risk management and internal control systems are in place to help us achieve our business objectives

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT

The main risks faced by TomTom and our approach to risk management, among other things, are described

in this section.

APPROACH TO RISK MANAGEMENT

TomTom's risk management is designed to provide reasonable assurance that our strategic and operational objectives are met, that legal requirements are complied with, and that the integrity and quality of TomTom's financial reporting and related disclosures is safeguarded.. Our risk management is directed towards the following categories: Strategic, Operational, Legal & Compliance and Financial.. The main risks are further described below..

Risk management forms an integral part of how TomTom is being governed and managed.. TomTom follows a top-down approach whereby the Management Board oversees, identifies and manages risks that could affect the TomTom's strategy and business objectives.. When taking decisions, management considers its risk appetite and seeks to manage risks consistently with the risk appetite.. The identified risks are expanded and cascaded to specific business units..

A single owner is assigned responsibility for each risk, which helps to ensure clear accountability for mitigating actions..

Every year, we update the risk considerations contained in our strategy, which are then monitored over the year, reviewing the trends and mitigating actions in relation to each risk.. TomTom's strategy (including associated risks) forms the basis of our annual budgets..

Our risk management approach enables a controlled framework for managing material risks while considering the entrepreneurial spirit and behavior within the organization..

INTERNAL CONTROL FRAMEWORK

The objective of our internal control framework is to maintain integrated management control of the company's operations in order to ensure the integrity of the financial reporting, as well as compliance with laws and regulations.. Assurance on the effectiveness of controls is obtained through management reviews, monitoring dashboards, self-assessments, internal audits and testing of certain aspects of our internal financial control systems.. Our systems are designed to manage, rather than eliminate, the risk that we fail to achieve our business objectives and can provide reasonable, but not absolute,

assurance against financial loss or material misstatements in the financial statements..

The key features of our systems of Internal Control are as follows:

>>Defined lines of accountability and delegation of authority in place..

>>Comparison reports with analysis on actuals, budgets and forecasts..

>>Minimized operating risk by ensuring that the appropriate infrastructure, controls, policies, systems and people are in place throughout the business..

>>Maintain organizational design that supports business objectives and a culture that encourages open and transparent communication..

>>Maintain a financial shared service center with a centralized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) environment which allows us to monitor our business throughout all regions and apply a consistent level of control..

>>Centralized Treasury operations that manage cash balances and exposure to credit default and currency risks through Treasury policies, risk limits and monitoring procedures..

>>Ensure the Code of Conduct is accessible to all staff via the intranet, which includes whistleblowing facilities..

Reviews of the internal risk management and control systems were discussed quarterly with the Audit Committee and Supervisory Board and no major failings had been addressed.. The Management Board concluded the systems continue to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements do not contain material misstatements and that there were no material changes to the control framework required to be implemented..

RISK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL CONTINUED

Riskoverview

FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

The Internal Control department further strengthened the control framework by centralizing all Governance Risk and Compliance tools and documents and improving reports and insights to the business on our control environment..

RISK APPETITE AND IMPACT

Our willingness to assume risks and uncertainties (the risk appetite) differs for each category.. The level of the company's risk appetite gives guidance as to whether TomTom will take measures to control such uncertainties..

The Risk Overview table highlights the appetite and the potential impact on the group's strategic, operational and financial objectives if one or more of the main risks and uncertainties were to materialize.. The likelihood of a risk occurring is also disclosed.. The risk severities shown relate to residual risk.. This means that the risks are described after taking the risk response into consideration..

GROUP RISK PROFILE

The following table is an overview of the risks that we believe are the most relevant to the achievement of our strategy, which has a time horizon of at least 12 months..

The sequence of risks below does not reflect an order of importance, vulnerability or materiality.. This overview is not exhaustive and should be considered in connection with the forward-looking statements.. There may be risks not yet known to us or which are currently not deemed to be material..

FAILURE TO GROW OUR AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS

We might be unable to pursue new automotive opportunities and lose market share versus competition.. Also, new map and navigation providers are entering the automotive market, which could increase the level of competition we face..

There could be additional operational and technical challenges (successful development of new products and investing in the right technologies) in growing our Automotive business and maintaining profitability over the longer term in such a rapidly evolving environment.. If we are unsuccessful in maintaining and growing a profitable Automotive business, our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity may be materially adversely affected..

Risk response

We believe TomTom is well positioned to address the future needs of our customers and to successfully pursue Automotive opportunities.. Following the sale of Telematics we are a more agile company, focused on cementing our position as the leading location technology specialist.. With our technological innovation, we continuously develop new product and service offerings in the areas of driver navigation and autonomous driving.. We believe these innovations will allow us to remain competitive in the automotive market..

REPUTATION DAMAGE

All our products and services are brought to market under one brand.. This leads to brand concentration risk.. Brand value can be severely damaged, even by isolated incidents affecting the reputation of our business or our products and services..

Some of these incidents may be beyond our ability to control and can erode customer confidence in our products or services..

Factors that negatively affect our reputation or brand image, such as adverse consumer publicity, inferior product quality, late delivery of customer commitments or poor service, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation..

Risk response

TomTom employs a rigorous quality management process for its products and services before they are launched.. Additionally, TomTom's Customer Care department aims to provide quality, responsive customer service and proactively monitors various digital platforms for customer feedback and issues.. Furthermore, internal policies, governance teams and our Code of Conduct are designed to further mitigate the risk of incidents that could result in reputation or brand damage..

FAILURE TO IMPROVE OUR MAPMAKING PROCESS

The competitive environment requires continuous investment in new technology for creating and updating map databases.. All our map content needs to be constantly updated for changes in the environment and we are constantly adding new geographies and attributes to our map database to enable us to meet the needs of existing and new customers, bring out new products and expand into new markets..

If we are unable to invest and innovate sufficiently to compete with other global map providers in terms of quality, coverage and cycle times and to modernize our map creation, maintenance and delivery platforms, our map-based business may be materially adversely affected..

Risk response

We aim to continuously improve our overall mapmaking process which is evidenced amongst others by a successful transition to our new Content Production Platform (CPP).. This transition enabled us to significantly increase the number of modifications we can process in a single month..

INABILITY TO ATTRACT, DEVELOP

AND RETAIN TALENT

Our markets are characterized by rapid technological change, which challenges us to deliver highly competitive products and services on an ongoing basis.. In order to be a market leader in our industry, we need to have talented people working effectively together..

We aim to employ highly talented people in our organization, which enables us to create and deliver highly innovative products and services to our customers.. If we are unable to attract, develop and retain the right people, our ability to operate our business successfully could be significantly impaired..

Risk response

In our ambition to be the employer of choice in technology, our rigorous recruitment process aims to attract the best talents.. We monitor the organizational health of the company and have programs in place to retain and keep employees engaged..

Significant investments are made in understanding what our employees need and want so we can offer customized experiences.. We continue to invest in our workforce and ensure that we have the right Employer Brand strategy in place to attract and retain the talent we need.. Also, we carefully consider our long-term location strategy in order to be able to attract and retain the most talented people.. Refer to section People and Culture for more information..

UNAVAILABILITY OF ONLINE SERVICES

We provide a variety of customer-facing online services on a 24/7 basis.. These include live traffic information, location-based services and sales via our website..

To provide these services to our customers we rely on our own, as well as outsourced, information technology, telecommunications and other infrastructure systems.. A significant disruption to the availability of these systems could cause interruptions in our service to customers that may cause reputational damage and could trigger contractual penalties, which could in turn, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results

of operations..

Risk response

We have established a process for business continuity in regards to our internal infrastructure, including full redundancy for key services such as location-based services and some traffic delivery platforms.. We are also in the process of transitioning our services to the cloud, which should improve both availability and quality of our systems..

FAILURE TO RECOVER FROM A DISASTER

Unforeseen business disruptions could affect our service to customers and cause loss of, or delays in TomTom's critical business systems, our research and development work and/or product shipments.. Any permanent or temporary loss of these systems could result in reputational damage, loss of revenue and liabilities with our clients.. In the case of a catastrophic disaster, our company's success rests on our ability to restore our critical data and rebuild our IT business systems..

Risk response

We have business continuity and disaster recovery planning in place for business-critical systems and various eventualities.. However, we are unable to plan for every possible disaster or incident.. A major failure of a business-critical system from which we are not able to quickly recover, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity..

We may be faced with claims that we have infringed in the intellectual property rights or patents of others, which if asserted against us may result in us being ordered to pay substantial damages or forced to stop or delay the development, manufacturing or sale of infringing products.. Any such outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.. Furthermore, even if we were to prevail, any litigation could be costly and time-consuming..

Risk response

We have a dedicated Intellectual Property team responsible for the protection of our products and services against unauthorized use by third parties.. By investing in R&D and obtaining and enforcing intellectual property rights, such as patents and trademarks (see page 9), we can prevent the competition from reproducing our unique products.. Over time, we have developed a reputation for strongly defending our position in all intellectual property litigation, including against non-practicing entities (NPEs)..

CUSTOMER PRIVACY AND CHANGING REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

We provide location-based products and services to individual customers.. As there is growing public awareness and increased scrutiny by regulatory authorities, this means that compliance with privacy regulations and customer expectations is increasingly important in maintaining our competitive position..

Next to this, various governments across the globe have implemented or are in the process of implementing legislation allowing law enforcement and intelligence services bodies direct access to data held by businesses.. Depending on country and cultural background, this could raise additional concerns regarding the use of our products and services..

Our reputation and brand may suffer and regulatory sanctions may be imposed if we fail to comply with privacy laws and regulations or otherwise fail to meet our customers' expectations in relation to privacy matters..

Risk response

Inherent in the design and operations of our products and services we apply 'privacy by design' to ensure that our Privacy Principles, as well as obligations from applicable privacy laws and regulations, are structurally adhered to in the design of our products and services and throughout our operations..

INFORMATION SECURITY RISK

Our business operations and reputation are substantially dependent on our ability to maintain confidentiality, integrity and availability of information regarding customers, employees, suppliers, proprietary technologies, intellectual property and business processes..

Additionally, the volume and sophistication of information security ('cybersecurity') threats as well as regulatory requirements continue to grow.. The inadvertent disclosure of confidential information, unauthorized access to our systems and networks, defective products and sanctions potentially imposed by regulators could adversely affect our business, our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our financial conditions, results of operations and liquidity..

Risk response

We deploy and maintain information security governance, controls, processes and tools in our engineering, operations and products using a risk-based approach, based on ISO information security standards.. In 2019, we also increased the capacity of the information security team, which helps to continuously update our defenses to be effective in a changing environment..

UNFAVORABLE MOVEMENTS IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The group operates internationally and conducts business in multiple currencies.. Revenue is earned in EUR, USD and other currencies, and do not necessarily match cost of sales and other costs which are largely in EUR and USD and to a lesser extent in other currencies..

Foreign currency exposures on commercial transactions relate mainly to estimated purchases and sales transactions that are denominated in currencies other than our reporting currency (EUR).. Unfavorable foreign currency movements will have a negative impact on our profitability..

Risk response

We manage foreign currency transaction risk through options and forward contracts to cover forecasted net exposures..

All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by our Corporate Treasury Policy, with appropriate risk limits and controls defined.. Furthermore, we try to temper any negative foreign currency effect by conscious and calculated pricing of TomTom products and services to combat the negative impact of the exchange rate movement..

Management Board

Management Board members are jointly authorized to represent the company.. Member biographies can be found on page 5..

Role and responsibilities

The Management Board is responsible for the day-to-day management of TomTom's operations.. In fulfilling its duties, the Management Board is guided by our company's interests and considers the interests of our stakeholders as a whole..

Responsibilities involve, among others: establishing and achieving strategic objectives, and managing strategic risks, legal compliance and sustainability matters..

The Management Board is accountable for its actions to the Supervisory Board and the General Meeting.. The Management Board consults with the Supervisory Board on important matters and submits important decisions to the Supervisory Board for its pre- approval, as further described in the company's Articles of Association, which are available on our corporate governance website page..

Composition and appointment

Our Articles of Association provide that the Management Board must consist of at least two members.. Each member of the Management Board is appointed for a maximum period

of four years, with the possibility of reappointment for consecutive four-year terms in accordance with the Code.. The General Meeting appoints the members of the Management Board, subject to the right of the Supervisory Board to make a binding nomination..

In 2019, at the Annual General Meeting held on April 17, Taco Titulaer was re-appointed as a member of the Management Board for a four- year term..

The General Meeting may at all times, by a resolution passed with a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing

more than 50% of the issued share capital, resolve that the nomination submitted by the Supervisory Board is not binding.. In such a case, the appointment of a member of the Management Board in contravention of the Supervisory Board's nomination requires a resolution of the General Meeting adopted with a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than 50% of the issued share capital.. If the Supervisory Board fails to use its right to submit a binding nomination, the General Meeting may appoint members of the Management Board with a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than 50% of the issued share capital..

A resolution of the General Meeting to suspend or dismiss members of the Management Board requires a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than 50% of the company's issued share capital..

No member of the Management Board holds more than two supervisory positions at Dutch 'large companies' in accordance with section 2:132a of the Dutch Civil Code..

Diversity

The Management Board's composition is based on diversity of experience, background, skills, knowledge and insights.. At present, TomTom has no women in the Management Board..

And as such, it does not qualify as gender balanced within the meaning of article 2:166 of the Dutch Civil Code, as applicable during 2019, and does not align with our diversity goals as a company, but we aim for at least one woman in the Management Board..

TomTom believes in the strength of diversity and will, when a vacancy in the Management Board arises, consider all diversity aspects, including gender diversity.. Currently, TomTom does not have any plans to change the composition of the Management Board.. More on diversity and inclusion at TomTom is available online on our corporate governance website..

The Supervisory Board determines each Management Board member's remuneration, upon a proposal by the Remuneration Committee, and based on TomTom's remuneration policy for the Management Board as established by the General Meeting in 2019.. The Remuneration Policy is subject to a binding vote of the General Meeting once every four years, the first time in 2020.. The application of the Remuneration Policy is described in the Remuneration Report, as part of the Annual Report over the present year, and is subject to an advisory vote of the General Meeting, the first time in 2020.. This results from the implementation of the Shareholder Rights Directive (SRD II) into the Dutch Civil Code on 1 December 2019 ('Wet inzake implementatie van de herziene EU Aandeelhoudersrichtlijn')..

VOTING RIGHTS

Each of our ordinary shares and preferred shares is entitled to one vote.. The voting rights attached to any shares held by the company are suspended as long as they are held in treasury.. Resolutions of the General Meeting are adopted by an absolute majority of the votes cast, except where Dutch law or the company's Articles of Association provide for

a special majority..

According to the company's Articles of Association, the following decisions of the General Meeting require a majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast, representing more than 50% of our issued share capital:

>>Resolution to cancel a binding nomination for the appointment of a member of the Management Board or the Supervisory Board..

>>Resolution to appoint a member of the Management Board or the Supervisory Board in contravention of the binding nomination by the Supervisory Board or in case the Supervisory Board did not make use of its rights to make a binding nomination..

In addition, in accordance with Dutch law, the company's Articles of Association provide that, if less than 50% of our issued share capital is represented at the meeting, certain decisions of the General Meeting require a majority

of at least two-thirds of the issued capital represented.. This includes decisions of the General Meeting regarding:

>>The restriction and exclusion of pre-emptive rights, or the designation of the Management Board as the authorized body to exclude or restrict such rights..

>>The reduction of the issued share capital..

>>A legal merger or legal demerger of the company..

AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF

ASSOCIATION

The General Meeting may resolve to amend our Articles of Association, if it acts on a proposal by the Management Board that has also been approved by the Supervisory Board..

A resolution of the General Meeting to amend the Articles of Association requires an absolute majority of the votes cast, irrespective

of the share capital represented at the General Meeting..

On March 18, 2019, the Extraordinary General Meeting adopted a resolution to amend our Articles of Association, due to a capital repayment in association with a share consolidation captured in three steps.. Firstly to increase the nominal share value from €0..20 to €3..34.. Secondly, to execute a share consolidation and thirdly, to decrease the nominal share value to €0..20, including a reduction of the share capital. The three succeeding notarial deeds were passed before the Dutch notary on May 22, 2019..

CAPITAL STRUCTURE

After the share consolidation in May 2019, the company's authorized share capital amounted to €90,000,000 and was divided into 300,000,000 ordinary shares with a nominal value of €0..20 each and 150,000,000 preferred shares, with a nominal value of €0..20 each..

On December 31, 2019, a total of 132,366,672 ordinary shares were issued and are outstanding..

Issue of shares

The Management Board may issue shares or grant rights to subscribe for shares if so designated by the General Meeting or our Articles of Association.. This Management Board resolution is subject to the prior approval of the Supervisory Board.. No resolution of the General Meeting or the Management Board is required for the issuance of shares pursuant to the exercise of a previously granted right to issue shares or to subscribe for shares..

The Management Board continues to believe it is in the company's best interests to be in a position to react promptly when business opportunities arise that require the issuance of ordinary shares.. When such occasions arise, the Management Board therefore wishes to be authorized to issue ordinary shares and, grant rights to subscribe for such shares without the need to obtain prior approval from the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting.. Such meetings take time to convene and could generate disruptive market speculation..

On April 17, 2019, the General Meeting passed a resolution extending the Management Board's authorization to resolve to issue ordinary shares or grant rights to subscribe for such shares until October 17, 2020..

This authority is limited to 10% of the number of issued ordinary shares for general purposes, and up to 10% in connection with or on the occasion of a merger, acquisition and/ or (strategic) alliances, and authorizes the restriction or exclusion of the pre-emption rights for existing shareholders for such issue or grant of rights..

Separately, the Management Board has been authorized to grant, subject to the prior approval of the Supervisory Board, rights to issue ordinary shares and to restrict or exclude the pre-emptive rights for existing shareholders for those rights, to subscribe for up to 910,000 restricted stock units for the purpose of executing the TomTom Employee Restricted Stock Unit Plan and the Management Board Restricted Stock Unit Plan.. It was granted for a period starting from the 2019 General Meeting and ending with the General Meeting to be held in 2020..

At the 2019 Annual General Meeting, the resolution to grant Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) was adopted.. See the Remuneration Report for more information..

Repurchase by the Company of its own shares On December 31, 2019, the remainder of the repurchased ordinary shares under the 2017 Share Buyback Program amounted to 824,674 to cover the company's commitments for

its stock option and share plans.. This equals a capital interest of 0..6% by TomTom NV.. Details of the share buyback transactions can be found on our corporate website..

The 2019 General Meeting resolved to authorize the Management Board to acquire shares in the capital of the company up to 10% of the issued share capital, subject to certain conditions.. The authorization was granted for a period of 18 months from the date of the General Meeting and will be in effect until October 17, 2020..

Preferred shares

Stichting Continuïteit TomTom (referred to as the Foundation) has been granted a call option entitling it to subscribe for preferred shares up to 100% of the aggregate nominal value of the outstanding ordinary shares at the time of issue, up to a maximum of the number of preferred shares included in the authorized capital at the time of issue.. The Foundation shall subscribe for the preferred shares at par.. Immediately after subscribing for preferred shares, the Foundation shall proceed to pay one- quarter of the nominal value of the preferred shares at the time of issue..

Three-quarters of the nominal amount shall only need to be paid upon call by the company, without prejudice to the provisions of article 2:84 of the Dutch Civil Code.. The Foundation is entitled to exercise the option right in

one or more tranches.. The possible issuance of preferred shares to the Foundation will be temporary and subject to the Articles of Association and the legislation on takeovers..

Unless the preferred shares have been issued pursuant to a resolution of the General Meeting, the Articles of Association require that a General Meeting be held within one year after the issue of preferred shares to consider their purchase or withdrawal.. If no resolution on the purchase or withdrawal of the preferred shares is adopted at such a General Meeting,

a General Meeting will be held every year thereafter for as long as the preferred shares remain outstanding..

The Foundation was established in 2005, with a board independent of TomTom.. The purpose of the Foundation is to safeguard the company's interests and all of its stakeholders, and prevent influences that may threaten its continuity,

or identity..

To date, no preferred shares have been issued..

Substantial shareholdings and short positions Shareholders owning 3% or more of the issued capital and/or voting rights of a listed company (a substantial shareholding or short position) must report this to the Netherlands Authority for Financial Markets (AFM) as soon as this threshold is reached or exceeded..

The thresholds for substantial shareholding notifications are: 3%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 75% and 95% of the company's issued share capital and/or voting rights..

OUR COMPLIANCE WITH THE CODE TomTom complies with all the relevant provisions of the Code, with the exception of the provisions 3..1..2 (v) and 4..3..3.. The nature of and reasons for these deviations are explained below..

Provision 3.1.2 (v)

Best practice provision 3..1..2 (v) provides that the variable remuneration component shall be linked to measurable performance criteria determined in advance, which shall be predominantly long-term in character..

TomTom deviates from best practice provision 3..1..2 (v) to the extent that it does not

link its long-term incentive to pre-defined performance criteria.. All RSUs granted under the Management Board Restricted Stock Unit Plan shall be granted conditional to continued employment of the Management Board members only.. These grants have a vesting period of three years, with a subsequent two- year shareholding requirement.. In addition, share ownership requirements has been

set to encourage future shareholding for all Management Board members.. The Supervisory Board reserves the right to decide not to award RSUs in a given year in case of exceptional market or business circumstances.. The reason for this deviation is that it has proven difficult to set long-term performance targets in our rapidly evolving, dynamic market environment..

Provision 4.3.3

Best practice provision 4..3..3 provides that the General Meeting may pass a resolution to cancel the binding nature of a nomination for the appointment of a member of the Management Board or the Supervisory Board and/or a resolution to dismiss a member of the Management Board or of the Supervisory Board by an absolute majority of the votes cast.. It may be provided that this majority should represent a given proportion of the issued capital, the proportion of which may not exceed one-third..

Our Articles of Association provide that a binding nomination for the appointment of Management Board or Supervisory Board members may only be set aside by a resolution of the General Meeting passed with a two-thirds majority representing more than 50% of its issued share capital.. The same provision applies to any resolution to dismiss a member of the Management Board or of the Supervisory Board..

The reason for this deviation is that the company believes that maintaining continuity in its Management Board and Supervisory Board is critical for delivering long-term value creation..

The company would like to protect its stakeholders against a sudden change in management by maintaining the qualified majority and voting quorum requirement, which is consistent with Dutch law..

SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT

INTRODUCTION

TomTom is the leading location technology specialist.. Its product portfolio and supportive technologies are innovative and competitive.. In a fast-moving industry were heightened competition and rapid technology developments are constant, we ensure that the company pursues a growth strategy that positions it for future growth.. We provide oversight, evaluate progress, performance and maintain an adequate system of checks and balances, advising the Management Board as appropriate.. In doing this, the Supervisory Board considers long-term value creation, the company's culture, the interests of the company and its stakeholders, and management of a sustainable business model..

Our decision-making process is assisted by the Audit Committee, the Remuneration Committee, and the Selection and Appointment Committee..

Composition

On December 31 of 2019, TomTom's Supervisory Board consisted of five members: Derk Haank (Chairman), Jacqueline Tammenoms Bakker (Deputy Chairman), Jack de Kreij, Michael Rhodin, and Bernd Leukert..

After 10 years of service, Peter Wakkie resigned as member and Chairman of the Supervisory Board.. He is succeeded by Derk Haank..

For more details on the Supervisory Board's composition, see the graphical overview below

The Supervisory Board confirms that all members are independent, as defined in best practice provisions 2..1..7 to 2..1..9 of the Dutch Corporate Governance Code (the Code)..

No member of the Supervisory Board holds more than five directorships at Dutch 'large companies', in accordance with section 2:142a of the Dutch Civil Code..

The composition of the Supervisory Board is in line with the Supervisory Board profile, as drawn up by the Supervisory Board and published on the company's website..

In 2019, one out of five members of the Supervisory Board was female.. The Supervisory Board acknowledges that this is not in line with the company's Diversity & Inclusion Policy

and the Dutch Civil Code.. The Supervisory Board recognizes the benefits of diversity, including gender balance.. Gender is only one part of diversity and future members of the Supervisory Board will continue to be selected on the basis of their expertise, background, independence and diversity as described in the Supervisory Board profile and TomTom's Diversity & Inclusion Policy.. For more information on this policy, please see the Corporate Governance section..

Biographies of the members of the Supervisory Board, as well as the information on the members as prescribed by the Code can be found in the 'Biographies of the Supervisory Board members' section, which also provides details of the Supervisory Board's committees and its members..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS

With the sale of its Telematics division to Bridgestone in April 2019, TomTom further focused its organization and strategy on location technology aiming to shape the future of mobility..

The agile work culture with entrepreneurial spirit, where talents learn fast, make an impact and support each other's growth and development, enables the company to continue creating the most innovative technologies to help shape tomorrow's mobility providing for significant market opportunities..

We greatly appreciate the efforts and commitment of TomTom's employees and its Management Board and we look forward to a further successful execution of TomTom's growth strategy

Meeting and attendance

The Supervisory Board met 13 times in 2019: six physical meetings and seven conference calls..

All members had sufficient time available for their duties relating to their membership of the Supervisory Board..

No members were frequently absent from the meetings..

Meeting agendas were prepared through consultation with the Chairman, the Management Board and the Company Secretary.. In addition to regular meetings, the Chairman of the Supervisory Board had regular contact with TomTom's CEO..

EVALUATION

The Supervisory Board and its committees reviewed and discussed its own function, the functioning of its individual members, committees and the functioning of the Management Board and its members.. In preparation for these discussions, the members of the Supervisory Board and Management Board provided feedback through interviews performed by an external adviser resulting in an evaluation report.. This report has been discussed by the full Supervisory Board, without the presence of the Management Board, during a meeting hosted by the external adviser.. The outcome and improvement points determined during this evaluation session, were shared with the Management Board..

Topics which were discussed were each members' role perception, the composition, gender diversity and expertise of the Supervisory Board, its effectiveness, its dynamics with the Management Board and succession planning.. The succession planning of the Management Board, (perceived) conflict of interest events and stakeholder management were also topics being addressed and discussed in the evaluation session..

The Supervisory Board greatly values annual evaluations since it embeds a culture of continuous improvements into the functioning of and the relationship between the Supervisory Board and the Management Board..

The Supervisory Board concluded that it performs well and is run efficiently.. As key strengths are seen its composition, atmosphere, mutual trust, focus and business acumen..

The interactions with the Management Board and other talents of the company are seen as constructive and pragmatic though critical.. The board dynamics are healthy; there is an open speak-up culture with great willingness to collaborate and share information..

At the beginning of the year, the Supervisory and Management Boards agree on topics for improvement, which are incorporated into the agenda to be discussed during the year.. The Supervisory Board decided to allocate additional time in 2020 on further increasing its knowledge and understanding of technological developments relevant to TomTom and to discuss technology industry specifics.. In principle, the Supervisory Board engages with a third party to assess its functioning every three years, the next time in 2022..

The Management Board evaluates its own functioning annually.. The CEO shares the outcome hereof with the Chairman of the Supervisory Board..

STRATEGIC OVERSIGHT

The Supervisory Board devoted considerable time to reviewing TomTom's strategy and the progress and execution thereof.. Constructive discussions were held with the Management Board on the strategic priorities of the Location Technology business.. During these sessions, the Supervisory Board ensured that the Management Board's ideas were challenged and tested in order to reach decisions that would underpin the company's strategy..

Ample time was spent reviewing the constantly changing technology landscape within which TomTom operates and the impact thereof on the company's strategy.. In addition, continuous attention was given to product competitiveness, potential new business models, autonomous driving and technologies that support this technology, including AI..

The Audit Committee kept the Supervisory Board informed of the company's strategic, operational, financial, legal and compliance risks, as well as the actions taken and internal control and management systems in place to manage these risks..

Business review and financial oversight

The Management Board regularly updated the Supervisory Board on commercial opportunities, deals, and partnerships.. Every quarter, reports were provided by senior management that outlined the developments, achievements, challenges and opportunities in each market segment, HR and our technology department..

The Supervisory Board was frequently updated on the progress made within our mapmaking, traffic and navigation technology, and the positioning and traction of these technology components in the marketplace..

The company's financial results, its operating result and its cash generation from operations were presented and closely supervised throughout the year.. The level of investment (both CAPEX and OPEX) in the core technologies of the company were thoroughly assessed every quarter.. The Supervisory Board reviewed and approved the budget for 2020..

Every quarter, the Supervisory Board was updated on the company's Investor Relations activities, such as share price developments, analysts' research and communication with shareholders.. The press releases regarding the full-year and half- year results, and the quarterly updates were all reviewed and approved by the Supervisory Board..

Culture

The Supervisory Board continued to meet talent from within the company, staying in touch with the TomTom culture, dynamics and operational challenges.. For this purpose, among other things, quarterly breakfast sessions were organized to facilitate a Meet

  • Greet between representatives of the Supervisory Board and selected talent, including participants of the World Class Leadership Acceleration Program.. In an open and transparent setting, they held a group dialogue on relevant matters..

Succession planning

The Supervisory Board discussed its own succession planning and concluded that the current composition suffices the company's current needs.. Ample time was spent with the Management Board on the yearly talent review of senior management within the organization, including succession planning..

Diversity

As a technology company, improving gender balance remains a key challenge.. The Supervisory Board was updated on the company's efforts to meet its commitments reflected in their diversity, inclusion and belonging goals.. The Supervisory Board acknowledged that its composition does not comply with the 30% gender diversity threshold and agreed to consider to create an action plan for 2020..

Works council

The Supervisory Board and the Dutch Works Council held three meetings, one specifically to receive feedback on the Management Board Remuneration Policy..

Corporate governance, regulations and sustainability

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORTMANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

Financial oversight

The AC assisted the Supervisory Board in its responsibility to oversee the system of internal control and risk management, the effectiveness of the internal auditors, the company's financing, financial statements and financial reporting process.. In relation to the external auditor, the AC monitored its performance

and the effectiveness of the external audit process, as well as its independence..

A core task of the AC was to extensively review the financial reports and budget before consideration by the full Supervisory Board.. Throughout the year, the AC monitored and reviewed the quarterly financial results and full-year financial statements as presented under IFRS (as adopted by the EU and in accordance with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code), including the respective disclosures prior to their releases.. Guidance to the financial markets was also discussed.. Special attention was paid to the accounting for discontinued operations (Telematics), revenue recognition including our deferred revenue position, the accounting for our intangible assets and our impairment review..

The AC also discussed topics related to TomTom's financing structure and cash flow planning, third-party cloud platforms, cyber-security and the analysis of the financial ratios..

Other areas of attention were significant estimates, pensions, the tax position and the status of legal claims and proceedings..

Monitoring of internal controls

During all quarterly meetings, updates were provided on the company's management reporting and the maintenance and effectiveness of the system of internal controls and risk management relating to strategic, financial, operational, commercial, tax control and compliance matters.. The company monitors its internal controls through a systematic approach that is supported by tools, a risk management process and the Internal Audit team.. The Head of Internal Audit reports functionally to the AC and administratively to the CFO..

Policy and compliance oversight

The AC further discussed items including the company's policies related to financing, cash and foreign exchange management.. In relation to tax, the AC discussed the status of ongoing tax audits, the innovation box ruling, 'Country by Country' reporting, tax risk management, tax transparency,

and the tax strategy/policy..

Regular updates were received by the AC on TomTom's compliance program (including fraud and whistle-blower reporting).. The AC was provided with quarterly updates on the company's ongoing effort to maintain the appropriate level of a risk-based information security management program.. Time was also dedicated to the Code of Conduct awareness program..

Effectiveness review

The effectiveness of the AC was reviewed as part of the 2019 overall evaluation of the Supervisory Board which confirmed that the AC continues to function in line with the requirements in this respect.. During 2019, Jack de Kreij continued to act as financial expert.. The role and functioning of the Internal Audit function, including its independence, were regularly discussed and the internal audit plan was approved by the AC.. This plan considers the key risk areas of the business, important IT projects, information security and data privacy, as well as the geographical spread of TomTom offices, including local compliance (e..g.. finance, HR and tax controls) and the core activities performed there..

In consultation with senior management, Internal Audit (IA) selects the areas of the business to be audited during the year.. Members of the AC and the Management Board may at any time request IA or a special consulting service to carry out an internal audit.. The follow-up on the recommendations made by IA were observed by the AC.. The Head of IA reported to the AC each quarter..

Evaluation of external auditor

EY was appointed as the external auditor in the 2018 General Meeting, for a term of three years up to and including the financial year 2020.. The external audit plan, including the scope, approach, key audit risks and materiality applied, were approved by the AC.. Reviews and discussions were held between the AC and the Management Board on the findings of the external auditor in its management letter and the actions taken by management to address the recommendations and observations made by the external auditor.. The performance of the external auditor was assessed based on a satisfaction survey conducted among the business units and the global corporate departments.. The assessment also included a consideration of the quality of the audit work, the audit team's expertise and composition, the audit fee and the quality control within the audit firm..

Auditor independence

TomTom has a policy on external auditor independence, whereby the auditor is not allowed to perform non-audit services that would compromise its independence or violate any other requirements or regulations affecting its appointment as auditor.. The provision of non-audit services by the external auditor that do not conflict with its independence is always subject to pre-approval by the AC.. The AC reviewed the independence of the external auditor EY, taking into account qualitative and quantitative factors, and concluded that EY had sufficient objectivity and independence to perform the external audit function.. EY confirmed its independence and compliance with this policy to the AC..

The Management Board members' progress against those metrics including target levels were periodically reviewed by the RemCo..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORTMANAGEMENT

MANAGEMENT BOARD REMUNERATION POLICY This section provides an overview of

the Remuneration Policy for TomTom's Management Board.. The Remuneration Policy has been adopted by the General Meeting, most recently in 2019..

Objectives and principles

The Remuneration Policy at TomTom is designed to attract and retain talent, and aims to provide fair, competitive and responsible remuneration for all employees, including the Management Board members.. Success for the business means success for the individual employee.. The policy therefore provides a company-wide framework for result-driven remuneration, linked to the achievement of strategic objectives.. TomTom's company values (see page 18)form the framework for business practices and apply to the policy framework..

The policy supports our strategy, operational and financial results, and delivery of long- term value creation to all stakeholders..

The Supervisory Board decides how to reward the successful delivery of the company's strategy by the Management Board.. It ensures that the policy and its implementation are linked to the company's strategic priorities..

Our strategy balances growth objectives, financial stability and investments to position TomTom competitively in the evolving field of location technologies.. The remuneration of Management Board members is intended to encourage behaviors that drive the generation of both short-term results to ensure ongoing progress and financial stability, and long-term value by pursuing growth and partnership opportunities through our location technologies and innovative services..

Our Remuneration Policy reflects the following principles, which shape the nature and positioning of remuneration for Management Board members as well as for senior management within TomTom:

>>Alignment with company strategy and long- term value creation..

>>Consistency with remuneration policies within TomTom..

>>Attractiveness and competitiveness.. >>Simplicity and transparency..

>>Compliance with relevant laws and regulations and the Dutch Corporate Governance Code..

>>Consideration of stakeholder concerns..

IMPLEMENTATION IN 2019

This section provides an overview of the application of the Remuneration Policy in 2019, other remuneration information to ensure reporting transparency, and important contract terms of the Management Board members..

Peer group

In principle, the remuneration is benchmarked with a peer group at least every three years and reviewed annually.. This helps to determine the overall competitiveness of our Management Board remuneration and gives an appropriate reflection of relevant competitive markets..

The selection of the peer group is discussed and approved by the Supervisory Board..

In the years where no benchmark is performed, such as in 2019, the Supervisory Board considers the appropriateness of any changes to the base salary based on the market environment as well as on the average salary adjustments for our employees in The Netherlands..

Base salary

The base salary level benchmarked in 2018 was considered for 2019.. The base salary for the CEO remained under median market level.. However, it was decided not to bring the CEO's base salary closer to the median in 2019.. The Management Board Member's base salary was in line with the median market level.. The CFO's base salary was below median market level.. As a result, the Supervisory Board approved a 15% increase to the base salary for the CFO for 2019..

Short-term incentive plan

Management Board members participate in the short-term, annual incentive plan, which is aligned with incentive schemes throughout the company..

The 'on-target' variable pay percentages for the Management Board members are assessed relative to those of our peer group companies.. The 'on-target' variable pay percentage is 80% of base salary for the CEO, and 64%

of base salary for the other Management Board members..

In case of excellent performance, the maximum variable pay opportunity is 120% of the base salary for the CEO and 96% of the base salary for the other Management Board members, which represents 150% of the target variable pay levels.. The minimum variable pay opportunity is 0% of base salary.. The short- term incentive structure is detailed in the following table..

The benchmark as conducted in 2018 indicated the target short-term incentive levels as a percentage of base salary provided to Management Board members were in line with market median of the peer group..

2019 PERFORMANCE CRITERIA AND OUTCOMES

On an annual basis, the Supervisory Board determines the most relevant performance criteria for the Management Board in regards to the short-term incentive plan.. These criteria provide the framework for employee incentive schemes and are being cascaded down by the Management Board to the rest of the organization.. This ensures the Management Board bonus structure is aligned with the company bonus structure.. Additionally, the Supervisory Board sets challenging yet realistic target levels for each performance criteria.. Similar to 2018, the emphasis for 2019 was on financial metrics in line with the company's strategy in achieving growth in location technology while maintaining expected levels of profitability for TomTom as a whole.. These performance criteria are an important measure of the success of the execution of the company's strategy and, as such, remuneration is directly linked to the company's long-term value creation..

Target levels are set at the beginning of the year and do not change during the year..

The performance against these targets is reviewed every quarter.. The final assessment is determined at the end of the fiscal year, based on the audited financial results.. Any potential payout under the short-term incentive plan occurs annually during the first quarter of the next financial year.. There is a range within which a payout under the plan may occur, as detailed in the structure above.. A minimum level of performance must be achieved before any payment under the plan will be made.. Payout is capped at an outstanding level of performance, known as the maximum..

For 2019, the performance criteria selected reflect the balance between growth in key areas and overall profitability.. These criteria are: Location Technology revenue weighted at 50% and TomTom EBITDA minus Investment also weighted at 50%.. Location Technology revenue, excluding Consumer, was selected as it directly reflects our long-term success and value creation.. Considering the expected continuing revenue decline in our Consumer segment, and to reflect TomTom's business transformation, the revenue metric excludes revenue from our Consumer unit.. However, at a profitability level, the full TomTom group profitability is important and as such Consumer is included in the profitability metric of EBITDA minus Investments.. The EBITDA minus Investments metric was introduced in 2017 to ensure appropriate focus on cash flow generation.. Each Management Board member's performance has been determined against these criteria..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY BOARD REPORTMANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

The assessment of performance under the short-term incentive plan is done by the Remuneration Committee, after consultation with the Audit Committee.. It is then proposed to the Supervisory Board for decision-making purposes.. In preparation for that assessment, the Chairs of the Remuneration Committee and the Audit Committee review the final outcomes, including any quality of earnings elements and relevant aspects of operational business performance, to ensure complete alignment on performance by both committees.. The proposal for approval to the Supervisory Board includes a view on the coherence between the proposed payment and overall business performance..

The Supervisory Board applies an element of judgement in the assessment of alignment between calculated payout and overall business performance.. For 2019, the Supervisory Board deemed the payout fair and reflective of the overall company performance given that out Location Technology business showed significant year on year revenue growth and our Consumer business performed much better than expected, resulting in a free cash flow of continuing operations of €66 million..

Long-term incentive

In 2019 TomTom replaced its long-term incentive plan based on stock options with restricted stock units (RSUs).. One reason for this change is that stock options are considerably less prevalent in recent benchmark assessments.. As our long-term incentive aims at creating long-term value and the retention of Management Board members, introducing RSUs supports those aims by promoting share-ownership and alignment with long-term value creation and shareholder interest.. Internal consistency is maintained as the long-term incentive plan for the senior leadership has also shifted from stock options to RSUs in 2019..

RSUs are a simple and transparent instrument.. Outcomes of the grant are predictable, both for the recipients and for shareholders, as downward risk and upward potential are balanced.. The predictability makes RSUs a superior retention instrument that is attractive to top managers.. Further, RSUs are supported by an extended two-year holding period following a three-year vesting period, conditional to continued employment.. As with the previously used stock options, vesting is not dependent on performance conditions.. This does not comply with best practice provision 3..1..2 v) of the Code.. As explained in the Corporate Governance report, the reason for this deviation is that it has proven difficult to set long-term performance targets in our rapidly evolving, dynamic market environment.. The Supervisory Board has the discretion to not award RSUs in case of exceptional market or business circumstances..

The RSU grant target value is 140% of base salary for the CEO and 100% for the other Management Board members..

Share ownership requirements have been set to encourage further shareholding for all Management Board members, expecting the CEO to hold a participation in the company of at least three times base salary, with other Management Board members expected to build up and hold a participation of at least two times base salary.. Refer to note 8 for further information on the stock compensation plans..

Long-term incentives in 2019

The annual grants are set as a percentage of the fixed salary of the Management Board members.. The following overview shows the number of RSUs granted to each of the members of the Management Board in 2019..

OTHER INFORMATION

Pay ratio

The Corporate Governance Code requires reporting on pay ratio.. TomTom's pay ratio reflects the average total compensation of the total global employee workforce, relative to the total remuneration package of the CEO.. This has resulted in the following outcome:

  3. Total personnel expenses (note 7 - consolidated financial statements) excluding social security costs, Management Board total remuneration and capitalized employee expenses..

The pay ratio decreased for 2019 as a result of the investment made in employee salaries in key markets and the decrease in bonus payout for Management Board members for 2019.. The Supervisory Board deems the pay ratio for TomTom of 27..1 to be at a comfortable level..

Annually, we also review the livable wage and local competitive dynamics in each of TomTom's operating locations.. If needed, adjustments are made to ensure employees compensation are above those levels as part of TomTom's efforts to be a good employer.. This contributes positively to our pay ratio..

Target Compensation Mix

The Remuneration Committee believes that the target compensation mix of Management Board members aligns with the long-term interests of shareholders.. The charts below illustrate the target pay that is at risk for the respective Management Board member represented as percentage of the total potential compensation package designed to reward based on company performance..

  3. Including results of Telematics for Q1 2019.. Excluding results from the sale of Telematics..

The company performance showed an overall positive trend in the last five years as reflected by Location Technology revenue and FCF generation.. The total remuneration of the Management Board developed in line with this.. The remuneration per employee remained relatively stable as the change in the mix of our workforce offset the increase in remuneration for individual employees..

Scenario analysis

A scenario analysis of the possible outcomes of the variable components and the impact on the Management Board members' remuneration is conducted annually to minimize the risk that the performance criteria lead to inappropriate outcomes.. The effect of different performance scenarios on the level and composition of remuneration has been analyzed and the outcome has been taken into consideration by the Supervisory Board when reviewing the Management Board members' remuneration.. These scenarios include minimum (0%), target (100%) and maximum (150%) variable pay achievement and share price decrease of 20%, no change to the TomTom share price, and a share price increase of 20%.. Under all scenarios (minimum, target, and maximum performance levels), the Supervisory Board has assessed that the range of potential remuneration is within outcomes that are appropriate for that level of performance..

Management Board members' views

Each individual Management Board member shares his view of his own remuneration package with the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee at least once per year.. The feedback is shared with the other Remuneration Committee members, who together consider all feedback when discussing and evaluating the Remuneration Policy, including its components and outlook..

Exceptional individual performance

The Supervisory Board did not choose to use its discretion in 2019 to provide an additional variable pay for each member of the Management Board for exceptional individual performance..

Share ownership

TomTom introduced share ownership guidelines for its Management Board members in 2019.. Share ownership requirements have been set to encourage further shareholding for all Management Board members, expecting the CEO to hold a participation in the company of at least three times base salary, with other Management Board members expected to build up and hold a participation of at least two times base salary..

OTHER POLICY INFORMATION AND CONTRACT TERMS Revision and claw back of variable pay

The claw back provision as reflected in the Remuneration Policy is in accordance with Dutch law and forms an integral part of Management Board members' employment.. The Supervisory Board can revise (downwards or upwards) the amount of the variable pay to an appropriate amount if payment of the bonus would be unacceptable according to standards of reasonableness and fairness..

In addition, the Supervisory Board is entitled, at its discretion, to recover on behalf of the company any variable pay awarded on the basis of incorrect financial data or other data underlying the bonus or about the circumstances that the bonus was made subject to..

This right of recovery exists irrespective of whether the Management Board member has been responsible for the incorrect financial data or other data, or was aware or should have been aware of this incorrectness..

No variable Remuneration has been clawed-back in 2019..

Deviation from Remuneration Policy

The Remuneration Committee did not deviate from its decision-making process in relation to the implementation of the Remuneration Policy.. It also did not deviate from the Remuneration Policy itself, except for the base salary of the CEO which remains under the median market level..

Change of control

In case of a change of control, the Supervisory Board may determine that any long-term incentives, granted to a Management Board member, shall be (deemed to be) vested, and exercisable if applicable, immediately prior to and conditional upon such change of control, or during such period after the change of control as the Supervisory Board may specify.. Failing exercise in such change of control event, previously granted stock options will lapse..

Term of appointment

All Management Board members' term of appointment is four years, while the term of employment is indefinite.. Management Board members may be re-appointed for another term of four years..

Notice period

All members of the Management Board have a notice period of six months.. For the company, the notice period is 12 months for termination without cause under the applicable employment agreements with the respective Management Board members..

Severance compensation

In the event that a Management Board member's employment is terminated by, or on the initiative of, the company, the Management Board member is entitled to a severance payment limited to 50% of one year's base salary, unless a higher statutory severance compensation applies..

These terms will not apply if the Management Board member's employment is terminated for any reason as set out in articles 7:677 (1) and 7:678 of the DCC.. In such situations, the Management Board member will not be entitled to any severance compensation.. A member of the Management Board will not be entitled to severance compensation if employment is terminated by himself, or on his own initiative..

NEW LEGISLATION - SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS DIRECTIVE II This Remuneration Report assumes to reflect the reporting requirements as provided by article 2:135b of the Dutch Civil Code (DCC), effective on 1 December 2019 and implementing the EU Shareholder Rights Directive II (SRD II), effective as of April 3, 2017.. One of the key objectives of the SRD II is to instill greater transparency for company stakeholders.. Transparency has always been important at TomTom; initiatives like the SRD II and its implementation into Dutch law are welcome..

The Supervisory Board will propose amendments to the Remuneration Policy at the 2020 AGM to align the policy with article 2:135a DCC..

Governance

The Remuneration Committee prepares the Supervisory Board's decisions regarding the remuneration of individual Management Board members, within the scope of the applicable Remuneration Policy..

In accordance with article 2:135a sub 2 DCC, the Supervisory Board proposes for adoption once every four-year period, the first time at the 2020 AGM, TomTom's Management Board Remuneration Policy to the General Meeting of Shareholders.. The decision for adoption of the Remuneration Policy requires at least 75% of the cast votes in favor..

The Remuneration Report describes the process which has been followed by the Remuneration Committee in relation to the implementation of the Remuneration Policy over the given financial year, and, if applicable, any proposed revision of the Remuneration Policy.. Every year, the implementation of the Remuneration Policy, through the Remuneration Report, is put forward for an advisory vote to the AGM (in line with article 2:135b sub 2 DCC), the first time at the 2020 AGM..

Alignment with long-term value creation

The remuneration of Management Board members is intended to encourage behaviors that focus on generating short-term results generation to ensure ongoing progress and financial stability, and long-term value creation by pursuing growth opportunities through TomTom's location-based technologies and innovative services.. The introduction of RSUs in 2019 further promotes share ownership and alignment with our long-term value creation and shareholder interests..

Engagement with stakeholders

Both the Management Board and the Supervisory Board have a transparent relationship with the Dutch Works Council.. Members of the works council have the opportunity to raise and discuss matters, including the Remuneration Policy and application hereof or any other matter that requires attention, both within and outside the regular meeting schedule (bi-annually with the Supervisory Board and quarterly with management)..

In preparation of the 2019 AGM, the Remuneration Committee members had engaged with several shareholders and Eumedion to explain the proposal's rationale and pro-actively address any questions prior to the meeting.. The proposal to introduce RSUs was adopted by the 2019 annual General Meeting of Shareholders with 82% votes cast in favor..

Our engagement with stakeholders before the 2019 AGM had been experienced as positive by all parties..

The Remuneration Committee considered the voting outcome and decided to continue constructive dialogues with representatives of shareholders (VEB, Eumedion) and proxy advisors (ISS, Glass Lewis) prior to the convocation of the agenda of the 2020 AGM.. Recommendations in relation to the Remuneration Policy and the Remuneration Report included, among others, i) disclosure of market value of not yet vested RSUs (Eumedion), and ii) disclosure of STIP targets (ex-post) (Eumedion, VEB), and iii) greater transparency on decision-making process and considerations of the Remuneration Committeee (VEB, Eumedion, ISS)..

Concerns were raised, among others, in relation to iv) TomTom's peer group composition where Eumedion feels that there are too many US companies included, and v) the provision allowing the Supervisory Board to grant each Management Board member an additional variable pay for exceptional individual performance..

TomTom has implemented recommendations regarding items

  1. and iii).. Regarding item ii), TomTom will meet the requirements for greater disclosure on STI targets in 2021, whenever required by the SRD II.. Regarding iv) TomTom considers that the competitive environment within which TomTom operates justifies the inclusion of relevant US companies which can be the source for TomTom talent (or attract it).. However, the Remuneration Committee has decided to perform the next benchmark in 2020 versus 2021, and the peer group will be reviewed, bearing in mind concerns raised..

The provision referred to under v) will be removed from the Remuneration Policy which will be submitted to the 2020 General Meeting, since the Supervisory Board's discretion is already covered by article 2:135 sub 6 of the DCC..

The Remuneration Committee will follow the implementation of the Guidelines on the standardized presentation of the remuneration report, as regards the encouragement of long-term shareholder engagement, issued by the European Commission..

Public perception

Management Board remuneration at TomTom specifically is not deemed to be a topic that is debated.. It has not been raised as a concern by (potential) institutional investors.. When remuneration has been discussed, it has been from the perspective of being modest compared to other organizations in the global tech industry..

The Remuneration Committee is committed to continuously improving the transparency regarding Management Board remuneration.. TomTom believes that this enables greater understanding and discussion with our stakeholders on a topic which is currently highly debated in society..

SUPERVISORY BOARD REMUNERATION POLICY

This section provides an overview of the Remuneration Policy for TomTom's Supervisory Board, last amended in 2019..

A Supervisory Board remuneration Policy will be proposed for approval at the 2020 Annual General Meeting, in accordance with the implementation of SRD II into Dutch law as of

1 December 2019..

  2. Derk Haank was appointed as a member of the Supervisory Board for a term of 4 years on 26 September 2018 and was appointed as the Chairman of the Supervisory Board following the resignation of Peter Wakkie at the Annual General Meeting on 17 April 2019..

OUTLOOK 2020

The Management Board members' salaries were assessed against the market environment and the adjustments for other employees.. For 2020, the salaries will be adjusted by 4..12% in line with salary market movement for employees in the Netherlands, since the last increase for Management Board base salaries in 2018..

For the 2020 short-term incentive scheme, changes will be made, by replacing the profitability metric EBITDA minus Investment with a Free Cash Flow metric to ensure better alignment of the Management Board remuneration with TomTom's guidance to the financial market and aimed at greater simplicity and transparency..

No changes are anticipated for the 2020 long-term incentive scheme..

The remuneration of the Management Board will be benchmarked in 2020 which will include a peer group review..

The Supervisory Board will propose amendments to the Remuneration Policy at the 2020 AGM to align it with article 2:135a DCC..

Section 1:General information and basis of reporting

This section introduces the basis of preparation and the general accounting policies applied to the consolidated financial statements as a whole, as well as a summary of the areas that involve significant judgments and estimates..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD

1 GENERAL

TomTom NV (the company) has its statutory seat and headquarters in Amsterdam, the Netherlands (registered under trade registration number of 34224566 in the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam).. The activities of the company includes the development and sale of navigation and location-based products and services which includes maps, traffic, navigation software and personal navigation devices (PNDs)..

The consolidated financial statements comprise the company and its subsidiaries (the group)..

The financial statements have been prepared by the Management Board and were authorized for issue on 5 February 2020.. The financial statements will be submitted for approval to the General Meeting on 15 April 2020

2 BASIS OF PREPARATION

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and IFRIC interpretations as adopted by the European Union as effective from 1 January 2019 and with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments (including derivatives) classified at fair value through profit or loss, which are stated at fair value.. Income and expenses are accounted for on an accrual basis..

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The general accounting policies applied to the consolidated financial statements as a whole are described below, while other significant accounting policies related to specific items are described under the relevant note..

The description of accounting policies in the notes forms an integral part of the description of the accounting policies in this section.. Unless otherwise stated, these policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented..

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND DEVELOPMENTS

Effective from 1 January 2019, the group has adopted IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments', and to the extent relevant, all other IFRS standards, interpretations and amendments that were in issue and effective from 1 January 2019..

IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments' is an interpretation which clarifies the accounting for income tax when it is unclear whether a tax authority will accept the income tax treatment as applied in income tax filings.. Other than a change in the presentation of provision for tax uncertainty on the balance sheet, the interpretation had no impact on the recognition and measurement of the Group's provision.. Previously the uncertain tax positions were presented as part of 'provisions' in the balance sheet.. These positions are now, for all periods presented, included in the line 'Income taxes'.. This change resulted in a decrease of non-current and current 'Provisions' of €13..9 million and €2..8 million respectively with a corresponding increase in 'Income taxes' of €16..7 million..

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the company and entities controlled either directly, or indirectly, by the company..

Control is achieved when the parent is exposed to, 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.. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with the group..

All intercompany transactions and balances, including unrealized gains and losses, arising from transactions between group companies are eliminated..

FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The company's primary activities are denominated in EUR.. Accordingly, EUR is the company's functional currency, which is also the group's presentation currency.. Items included in the financial information of individual entities in the group are measured using the individual entity's functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates..

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions.. At each balance sheet date, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at each balance sheet date.. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated..

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized under 'Other financial result' in the income statement, except for gains and losses that arise from intercompany borrowings that form part of net investment in subsidiaries which are recognized in 'Other comprehensive income'..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

Group companies and foreign operations

For consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of entities that have a functional currency other than the group's presentation currency are translated at the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet, whereas the income statement is translated at the average exchange rate for the period.. Translation differences arising thereon are recognized in 'Other comprehensive income'..

INCOME STATEMENT

The group presents it's statement of income based on functional categories of expenses namely, research and development, marketing and selling general and administrative costs.. Included in selling general and administrative costs are amounts of other business income received which are incidental in nature.. Amortisation of technology and databases is disclosed as a separate line item, to provide additional insight, as it is a material non-cash expense..

CASH FLOW STATEMENT

Cash flow statements are prepared using the indirect method.. Cash flows from derivative instruments are classified consistently with the nature of the instruments.. Dividend income is presented under investing activities..

3 ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make certain assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.. Actual results may differ from those estimates..

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and the future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods..

CHANGE IN ESTIMATE

Driven by technological advances that allow for an acceleration of the speed at which our maps are updated, and also changes to our map production process, the requirements of our customers and increasing use of third party data, we have reassessed and reduced the estimated remaining useful life of the map database from Tele Atlas acquisition to 24 months effective from

1 January 2019..

The remaining useful life of content capitalized since the acquisition that exceeds 6 years have been reduced to 6 years; all newly created content from 2019 onwards will be amortized over a period of 6 years.. The change in estimate resulted in increased amortization of €164 million during 2019.. A similar impact is expected for 2020..

The table below presents the areas that involve a higher degree of judgment or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements:

Section 2:Results of the year

This section presents the notes related to items in the income statement (except for financial income and expenses) and disclosure of operating segments.. If applicable, relevant notes on balance sheet items, which also relate to items in the income statement, are also presented in this section.. A detailed description of the results for the year is provided in the business and financial review and group financial review sections in the Management Board report..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT

4 SEGMENT REPORTING

The operating segments are identified and reported on the basis of internal reports about components of the group that are regularly reviewed by the Management Board to assess the performance of the segments..

Following the divestment of the Telematics segment (refer to note 12) the Group has redefined its operating segments into two distinct segments namely, Location Technology, which includes the previously reported operating segments Automotive and Enterprise, and Consumer..

The Group's internal management reporting is structured primarily based on the nature of the business of each segment.. Location Technology is engaged in developing and selling location- based application components such as maps, services (e..g.. traffic) and navigation software to customers in different market segments.. Consumer generates revenue mainly from the sale of consumer electronic devices such as PNDs..

Management assesses the performance of segments based on the measures of revenue, operating result (EBIT) and EBITDA, whereby the EBIT and EBITDA measure include allocations of expenses from supporting functions within the Group.. Such allocations have been determined based on relevant measures that reflect the level of benefits of these functions to each of

the operating segments.. The effects of non-recurring items are excluded from management's measurement basis.. Interest income and expenses and tax are not allocated to the segments..

There is no measure of segment (non-current) assets and/or liabilities provided to the Management Board.. The non-current assets within the group include a significant portion of the carrying value of the step up resulting from the Tele Atlas acquisition in 2008.. As this step up is not geographically allocated to the respective regions for internal management reporting, we believe that disclosure of geographic allocation would be highly judgmental and would not give a true representation of geographical spread of the group's assets..

At balance sheet date, €278 million (2018: €172 million) of Location Technology's deferred

revenue related to Automotive and €23 million (2018: €17 million) related to Enterprise..

Automotive and Consumer deferred revenue is mostly driven by upfront payments by our customers for longer-term (multiple years) content and service deliveries (e..g.. traffic and map updates).. The Enterprise deferred revenue is mostly related to some customers who prepay each year for their annual license to our content..

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

In Automotive, payments for the licenses and services are typically in the form of fixed royalty payments for each car produced by the automotive customer during the duration of the program which may range from 3-7 years (royalty period).. The obligation to deliver map updates and traffic services may extend for a number of years beyond the royalty period.. Navigation software is typically delivered at the start date of the customer program..

For Enterprise, the payments typically take form of (annual) license fees / guaranteed royalties for larger customers or usage-based royalty payments for smaller customers.. The payments typically correspond with the period the group is obliged to provide the license and/or services..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

In Consumer, both B2B and end customers make payments for (bundled) products and services which may require TomTom to deliver map update and/or traffic service during the (estimated) remaining lifetime of a hardware product or subscription period.. Payments for such products and/ or services are generally received at the time the products are delivered (subject to applicable payment term for B2B customers) or when services are activated..

As at 31 December 2019, the total of the transaction price allocated to the group's (partially) unfulfilled performance obligations is estimated at €1..2 billion (2018: €1..0 billion), of which €369 million (2018: €281 million) is reflected in deferred revenue.. This total excludes the (estimated) transaction price of:

>>contracts where revenue recognition is based on right to invoice (as allowed by the practical expedient); and

>>license and/or service contracts where each individual future activation is treated as a separate (subscription) contract..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

The revenue recognition policy for each type of revenue or combination is presented below..

License revenue

License revenue is generated through licensing of digital map content and/or navigation software to B2B customers of Location Technology and through the sale of map update services directly to the end-customers..

In the B2B license arrangements, the license of our navigation software is typically granted as 'right to use' license while the license of digital map content can either be granted as 'right to access' and/or 'right to use'.. Right to access licenses provides the customer the right to access, over a certain period of time, TomTom's map data which is continuously developed and enhanced during the contract period.. Right to use licenses are those that only provides the customer the right to use certain map data or software as it exists at the moment the control passes to the customer.. This does not give the customer the right to receive future updates or upgrades other than those that can be considered as minor enhancements or bug fixing..

Revenue from 'right to access' licenses is recognized over the (estimated) period during which TomTom is obliged to provide access to the customers.. For royalty-based arrangements, the revenue is either recognized based on (estimated) reported royalties, as typically the royalties reflect the usage and benefits to the customers or based on time as progress measure but restricted to the amount of the (estimated) reported royalties.. When restrictions in license terms result in multiple individual licenses in royalty-based arrangements, each reported unit of usage is treated as a separate license and the revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period..

License revenue for 'right to use' licenses is recognized at the moment the control passes to the customer, except for the usage-based royalties, which are recognized when the usage has taken place based on royalties TomTom is entitled to for the period..

When license arrangements include a minimum guarantee, the excess of the reported royalties above the guaranteed amount is only recognized when cumulative reported royalties have exceeded the minimum guarantee, unless the expected total royalties is estimated to be above the minimum.. In this case, the revenue is recognized based on the royalties TomTom is entitled to.. When contracts include an annual minimum instead of a contract minimum, the excess of royalties above the annual minimum is recognized in the respective period when the royalties exceed the annual minimum..

To the extent possible, the group makes use of the practical expedient to use right to invoice as a measure of progress as long as the invoice reflects the benefits to the customer..

WE ARE TOMTOM

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUED

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

Service revenue

Service revenue includes revenue generated from the sale of traffic and travel information services to both B2B and/or end-customers, sale of online map and location-based services through hosted API solutions (Maps APIs) and providing connected navigation services..

The (estimated) revenue relating to the service element is recognized over the agreed or estimated service period on a straight-line basis or based on the invoiced amount if such invoice reflects the benefit of the services to the customer over the service period.. The service period for life-time traffic and map update service offering within Consumer is estimated at 3 years..

Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is generated primarily through the sale of Consumer navigation, Automotive hardware products and related accessories.. Revenue from sale of goods is generally recognized at the moment the control passes to the customers..

Bundled goods and services

When products and services are offered as a bundle under one agreement or under a series of agreements that are commercially linked, the (estimated) total transaction price of the agreement is allocated to each of the identified 'distinct' performance obligations based on the relative selling price of each element.. Depending on their nature, the revenue from each of the 'distinct' performance obligations is recognized based on the applicable revenue recognition policy as described above..

Contract balances

The group uses the terms 'unbilled receivables' and 'deferred revenue' to describe contract assets and contract liabilities.. The term 'Contract related assets' is used to denote the aggregate balance of unbilled receivables and capitalized contract costs while 'Contract related liabilities' refers to the collective balance of deferred revenue and other contract- related liabilities..

Contract costs

Contract costs are capitalized only to the extent they are recoverable.. Internal development costs relating to customer-specific customization of software and/or other technology platforms are capitalized as contract costs if they have no alternative use.. The group does not capitalize costs to obtain multi-year contracts as they are deemed not significant..

Where the amortization period of an asset recognized for the costs to obtain a contract is one year or less, the costs are expensed..

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

Significant revenue estimates include the estimates of various pricing allowances deducted from the revenue, estimates of the stand-alone selling price of various elements in bundeled arrangements and of the estimation of total transaction price for contracts with customers..

Price allowance deductions

The estimated sales return deduction is based upon historical data on the return rates and information on the inventory levels in the distribution channel.. For sales incentives including channel and end-user rebates, the reduction in revenue is based on the group's historical experience, taking into account future expectations on rebate payments.. If there is excess stock at retailers when a price reduction becomes effective, the group will compensate its customers on the price difference for their existing stock, provided certain criteria are met.. To reflect the costs related to known price reductions in the income statement, an accrual is created against revenue at the time of sale based on an estimate of the inventory levels in the channel and future price reductions..

Relative stand-alone selling price

The relative stand-alone selling price of each element in bundled arrangements is based on the available stand-alone selling price or is estimated using methods allowed under IFRS, such as the cost plus reasonable margin method, residual method or a combination thereof.. In making such estimates, management makes use of judgment and assumptions to arrive at an outcome that best reflects a transaction's substance.. Total deferred revenue balance relating to the elements deferred under such bundled arrangements as at 31 December 2019 amounted to €64 million (31 December 2018: €84 million)..

Total transaction price

The (expected) total transaction price of certain contracts that include variable considerations needs to be estimated at the inception of the contract and each future reporting date.. Such estimates are in particular relating to expected usage of our licenses and/or services which may be susceptible to factors outside our influence such as the developments in the market and industry in which our customer operates.. In making such estimates management makes use of input from different sources such as historical experience, estimated sales volumes of customers as well as other relevant sources..

The estimated variable consideration is only taken into account to the extent that management believes that it is highly probable that that it will not be subject to significant reversal in the future..

PENSIONS

The group's pension plans primarily comprise of defined contribution plans, limiting the employer's legal obligation to the amount it agrees to contribute during the period of employment..

In Italy, employees are paid a leaving indemnity on termination of their employment.. This is a statutory payment based on Italian civil law.. An amount is accrued each year based on the employee's remuneration and previously revalued accruals.. The indemnity has the characteristics of a defined contribution obligation and is an unfunded, but fully provided liability.. This liability is included as part of 'Other' provisions..

73

Employees in the United States are offered the opportunity to participate in the 401K pension plan, which involves no contribution or obligation from the group besides withholding and paying the employee's contribution..

In addition, the group has defined benefit plans in Germany and Belgium..

The total pension costs of €9..9 million (2018: €9..6 million) consists of the costs of the defined

contribution plans of €8..5 million (2018:€7..9 million) and of the defined benefit plan of

€1..4 million (2018: €1..7 million)..

Belgium

The Belgian defined benefit plan is a (guaranteed) insurance plan.. The plan is funded by fixed monthly contributions from both the employer and employees.. It provides a lump-sum payment at retirement, based on the contributions made, as well as death-in-service benefits.. Belgian law prescribes a variable minimum guaranteed rate of return.. The group substantially insures these returns with the external insurance company that receives and manages the contributions to the plans.. According to the relevant legislation, a shortfall only needs to be compensated by the employer at the point in time when the employee either retires or leaves.. As this plan has defined benefit features (when the return provided by the insurance company is below the legally required minimum return), the group treats this plan as a defined benefit plan..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

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 services have been rendered to the group.. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or reduction of future payments is available..

In relation to the defined benefit plan, the group recognizes a liability based on the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the end of the reporting period.. The defined benefit obligation is calculated at least annually 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 for which the terms to maturity approximate the terms of the related pension obligation.. The service cost and the interest cost are recognized as pension costs, while the actuarial gains/losses are credited/charged to 'Other comprehensive income'..

8 STOCK COMPENSATION

The group has stock compensation plans for members of the Management Board and certain employees as part of their remuneration.. The group currently operates stock option plans, restricted stock unit plans and phantom share plans.. The purpose of the stock compensation is to retain management and employees, and align the interests of management and eligible employees with those of shareholders, by providing additional incentives to improve the group's performance on a long-term basis.. The disclosure in this note relates to the total operations of the group..

In 2019, the group changed its long-term incentive plan.. From 2019 the group no longer grants stock options and phantom shares and only grants restricted stock units.. This change promotes share-ownership increasing alignment with our long-term value creation and shareholder interest..

EQUITY-SETTLED PLANS

The group's stock option plans (options) and restricted stock unit plans (RSU) classify as equity- settled plans as these plans are settled with the company's own equity instruments..

The equity-settled plans are for members of the Management Board and eligible employees.. The General Meeting has extended the authority of the Management Board to grant, subject to the prior approval of the Supervisory Board, rights to employees to subscribe for shares under the respective equity plans.. The instruments cannot be transferred, pledged or charged..

All equity-settled stock compensation will be covered at the time of exercise, firstly through the issue of treasury shares held by the company, and secondly through the issue of new shares..

Options were exercised on a regular basis throughout the year.. The average share price during the year was €9..09 (2018: €8..00)..

The fair value of the options is determined using the binomial tree model.. This model contains the input variables, including the risk-free interest rate, volatility of the underlying share price, exercise price and share price at the date of grant..

The option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected share price volatility.. Volatility is determined using industry benchmarking for listed peer group companies as well as the historic volatility of the TomTom NV's share.. The group's employee stock options have characteristics that are significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can affect the fair value estimate.. There are no market conditions applicable to the grant..

Restricted stock units

An RSU gives the holder the right to receive one TomTom share after the completion of the vesting period.. After the vesting period Members of the management Board are subject to a two year holding period.. For other employees, there is no minimum holding period after the vesting period..

RSUs vest either in total after a three-year vesting period (cliff vesting) or, in some cases, in equal tranches on an annual basis over a three-year period (graded vesting).. The fair value of the RSUs is determined with reference to the share price of TomTom NV at the date of grant..

CASH SETTLED PLAN

Phantom share plan

Under this plan, eligible employees are entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the value of the number of shares that have vested.. Phantom shares vest and are paid out after the completion of a three-year vesting period.. No phantom share was granted in 2019 as the phantom share plan is largely replaced with the granting of RSUs in 2019..

As at 31 December 2019, the outstanding liability with regard to the phantom share plan was €4..1 million (2018: €6..9 million)..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

The fair value, as measured at the date of grant, of equity-settled stock compensation grants is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.. For options, the fair value at grant date is measured using the binomial tree model.. For restricted stock units, the fair value at grant date is equal to the share price at the date of grant..

Cash-settled stock compensation plans are initially measured at the fair value of the liability which is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.. The liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date to its fair value, reflected by the share price at balance sheet date, with any changes recognized immediately through profit and loss..

All stock compensation expenses are based on the number of units that are expected to vest, the estimates of which are revised at each balance sheet date..

9 DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND IMPAIRMENT

10 GOVERNMENT GRANTS

In 2019, the group received government grants amounting to €4..9 million, in relation to the research and development activities performed by the group (2018: €3..7 million) which mainly have been accounted as a deduction of wage tax expense in line with the nature of the grants..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Government grants are recognized at their fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grants will be received and that the group will comply with the conditions attached to them.. Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses that are already incurred, or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the group with no related future costs, are recognized as a deduction of related expenses in the period in which the grants become receivable..

CURRENT INCOME TAX

The current tax represents the tax charge on profit from continuing operations for current year as well as adjustments relating to prior periods.. The tax paid in 2019 (including discontinued operations) was €12 million (2018: €9..1 million).. The current income tax charge has a €0..05 (2018: €0..04) impact on our earnings per share..

The activities of the group are subject to corporate income tax in several countries, depending on presence and activity.. The applicable statutory tax rates of the tax jurisdictions in which the group operates vary between 9% and 34..0% which may cause the group effective tax rate (ETR) to deviate from the Dutch corporate tax rate..

MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

The income tax gain of €41 million in 2019 represents an ETR of 17..7% (2018: 145%).. This ETR is primarily impacted by the effect of the remeasurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and the effect of not capitalizing part of current year's tax losses.. Additionally, the income tax charge includes the current tax attributable to Telematics entities that form part of the fiscal unity with other Dutch entities in the group..

The income tax credited directly to equity in 2019 amounted to €2 million (2018: credit of €1 million) which is mainly related to the deferred tax assets on pension liability and remeasurement of deferred tax on items that originated through equity..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Current and deferred taxes are recognized as an expense or income in the profit and loss account, except when they relate to items that arise from the initial accounting for a business combination or items credited or debited directly to equity.. For the latter, the tax is also recognized either in Other comprehensive income or directly in equity.. The group's income tax expense is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted

at the balance sheet date.. Uncertain tax positions are included in current tax.. The group recognizes uncertain tax provision when it is not probable that a particular tax treatment will be accepted by the tax authorities..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT

DEFERRED INCOME TAX

As at 31 December 2019, the group had a deferred tax liability of €27 million (2018: €80 million) and a deferred tax asset of €6 million (2018: €5 million).. The deferred tax asset and liability mainly results from the timing difference between the tax and accounting treatment of intangible assets, lease assets and liabilities, cash-settled stock compensation and certain provisions as well as from the capitalization of carried forward tax losses..

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUED

In some jurisdictions the group has remaining tax losses that have not been recognized as a deferred tax asset as the future recovery of these losses against future taxable income is uncertain.. As at 31 December 2019, these losses amounted to €48 million (2018: €26 million) of which €26 million relates to foreign tax jurisdictions.. The losses from foreign countries have no future expiry date while the vast majority of the losses generated in the Netherlands will expire in tranches from 2023 to 2026.. In addition, the group has uncapitalized withholding tax credits amounting to €8..3 million (2018: €5..5 million)..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method.. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes (accounting base) and the amounts used for income tax purposes (tax base)..

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled, using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date..

The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the group expects, at the balance sheet date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities..

Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized.. The carrying amounts of deferred tax assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered..

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes relate to income taxes levied by the same fiscal authority..

78

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

The determination of the group's provision for income tax as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities involves significant judgments and estimates on certain matters and transactions, for which the ultimate outcome may be uncertain.. If the final outcome, or a new estimate, differs from the group's estimates, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made..

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the countries where the deferred tax assets originated and the periods during which the tax losses or temporary differences become deductible..

Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment..

At 31 December 2018, the currency translation reserve relating to the disposal group classified as held for sale was €1 million..

Immediately before classification of Telematics as a disposal group held for sale it was determined that the fair value of the disposal group (as determined using level 3 inputs) exceeded its carrying value.. No adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group was required..

Refer to the accounting policy regarding fair value estimation in note 27..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Non-current assets held for sale

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if the carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than continuing use..

To be classified as held for sale, an asset or disposal group should be available for immediate sale in its present condition.. Management must be committed to the plan of sale, which should be highly probable and expected to be completed within one year from the date

of classification..

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the asset's carrying amount or the fair value less costs of disposal.. Depreciation or amortization of an asset ceases when it is classified as held for sale..

Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position..

Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that has been disposed of

or is classified as held for sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations and is part of a single coordinated plan of disposal.. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the statement of profit or loss..

All notes to the financial statements represent amounts for continuing operations, unless indicated otherwise in the note..

Goodwill is wholly allocated to the Location Technology segment (in 2018, Automotive & Enterprise, now collectively 'Location Technology') which represents the lowest level at which Goodwill is monitored in the group.. Refer to note 4 for details on operating segments..

Our 2019 and 2018 impairment tests did not result in an impairment of Goodwill.. Details of the assumptions and estimates made are presented under Significant estimates below..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Goodwill represents the excess of the costs of an acquisition over the fair value of the group's share of identifiable assets of the acquiree at the date of acquisition and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.. Goodwill is allocated to operating segments that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose..

Impairment testing

Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are tested for impairment at least annually, or whenever management identifies conditions that may indicate a risk of impairment..

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units).. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount and is recognized immediately in the income statement.. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use.. In estimating the recoverable amount, management is required to make an estimate of the expected future cash flows from the cash-generating unit in the forecasted period and also to determine a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows.. Such estimates are subject to a certain degree of judgment and uncertainty..

Impairments to goodwill are not subsequently reversed..

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

Impairment test of goodwill

We set out below the methodologies as well as assumptions applied in performing our year-end goodwill impairment test for Location Technology (2018: Automotive & Enterprise)..

The recoverable amount of a segment is determined based on the higher of the value in use or fair value less costs of disposal calculations.. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation resulted in a higher recoverable amount.. The calculations of fair value less costs of disposal for Location Technology uses post-tax cash flow projections based on financial forecasts approved by management covering a five-year period (forecasted period) including terminal value..

Management's cash flow projections for Location Technology in the forecast period are based on management's assumptions on the expected revenue developments, gross margin and operating margin after allocation of operating expenses from shared units, taking into account management's expectation of market size and market share development..

Location Technology's revenue is projected to grow in line with management's mid- and long- term plan in the forecast period.. Given the limited visibility on the longer-term growth, the growth rates in the later years are more subject to uncertainty compared with the earlier years.. Gross margin and operating margin projections of each of the segments are consistent with the expected revenue developments..

The growth rates after the forecast period as well as the discount rate used is presented in the table below.. The input to the group's key assumptions include those that are based on non-observable market data (level 3 input in accordance with IFRS 13)..

  2. Post-taxdiscount rate applied to the cash flow projections..

Discount rates used are post-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant operating segments..

Management considered the effects of applying a pre-tax approach and concluded that this will not materially change the outcome of the impairment test..

Expectations and input to the impairment calculation, as well as the overall outcome, have been compared with the available external information from various analysts, and to the extent available, with market information on recent comparable transactions (merger and acquisition activities of comparable companies)..

The sensitivity test for Location Technology showed that a reasonably possible change in any of the above-mentioned key assumptions as well as other assumptions in the forecasted period would not cause the fair value less costs of disposal to fall below the level of the carrying value..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets includes assets that have been acquired, either through individual asset acquisitions or through business combinations, and assets that have been generated internally, such as the group's core technology and geographical content database..

Internally generated intangible assets

Internal development costs for core technology are recognized as an intangible asset if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:

>>The technical feasibility to complete the project;

>>The intention to complete the intangible asset, and use or sell it; >>The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

>>How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; >>The availability of adequate resources to complete the project; and >>The cost of developing the asset can be measured reliably..

Internally generated databases are capitalized until a certain level of map quality is reached and ongoing activities focus on maintenance..

Internal software costs relating to development of non-core software with an estimated average useful life of less than one year and engineering costs relating to the detailed manufacturing design of new products are expensed in the period in which they are incurred..

The amount initially recognized for internally generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditure incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above.. All expenditures on research activities are expensed in the income statement as incurred..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

Acquired intangible assets

Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognized at cost, including directly attributable costs to bring the asset to its intended use.. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognized separately from goodwill when they satisfy the definition of an intangible asset and their fair values can be measured reliably..

The cost of such intangible assets is their fair value at the acquisition date..

All intangible assets are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses..

The amortization of other intangible assets is recorded on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives as follows:

>>Map content and mapmaking platform: 5-12 years;

>>Internally generated core technology: 3-6 years;

>>Acquired technology: 3-5 years;

>>Customer relationships: 5-13 years; and

>>Computer software: 2-5 years..

During the year, the estimated useful life of all map content created since Tele Atlas acquisition has been revised to 6 years (previously 4-12 years) while map content from Tele Atlas acquisition has been set to 12 years with a year remaining as of 31 December 2019.. Refer to note 3 Accounting estimates for details regarding the reasons and impact of this change in accounting estimate..

Impairment

Intangible assets which have an indefinite useful life and intangible assets not yet ready for use are tested for impairment at least annually, or whenever management identifies conditions that may indicate a risk of impairment.. Assets that are subject to amortization are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable..

Testing is conducted as per the policy outlined in note 13..

Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, which have been subject to an impairment, are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date..

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

Management made use of assumptions and judgment in assessing the expected future economic benefits that can be attributed to the internally generated technology, databases and tools, as well as their expected useful lives.. For internally generated databases, assumptions are also made on the level of completion, at which point the capitalization

is discontinued and future activities are considered to be maintenance.. The estimated (remaining) useful life of map database, as changed in 2019, has been determined based on the speed at which we update our map, technological trends as well as requirements from our customers..

Such estimates are made on a regular basis, as they can be significantly affected by changes in technology and other factors..

Impairment of intangible assets

No impairment charge has been recorded for intangible assets in either period presented..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment charges.. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

>>Furniture and fixtures: 4-10 years;

>>Computer equipment and hardware: 2-7 years;

>>Leasehold improvements: 2-5 years;

>>Vehicles: 4 years; and

>>Service equipment: 5 years..

The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation methods are reviewed at each year-end, with the effect that any changes in estimate are accounted for on a prospective basis.. The gain or loss arising on disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognized in profit or loss..

Lease buildings

Buildings are leased for office space for periods of approximately of 2-5 years.. Leases for office buildings typically include an option, exercisable by the group as lessee up to one year before the end of the cancellable lease term, to renew the lease for an additional period of the same duration after the end of the contract term..

At the end of the year, the group had options to extend lease contracts for leased buildings which represent potential discounted future lease payments not included in lease liabilities of €36 million (2018: €30 million)..

Most real estate leases include annual escalation clauses with reference to an index or contractual rate..

Other leases

The group leases vehicles for qualifying employees with a standard lease term of 4 years.. The group does not purchase or guarantee the value of lease vehicles..

In some cases the group leases furniture and office equipment with terms of 1-3 years.. The group considers these assets to be of low-value or short-term in nature and therefore no right-of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for these leases..

Expenses recognized relating to short-term leases and leases of low value during 2019 was €0..3 million and €0..4 million respectively (2018: €0..5 million and €0..2 million)..

LEASE LIABILITIES

The total interest expense on lease liabilities in 2019 was €0..4 million (2018: €0..6 million) and the

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Leases as a lessee

A contract is classified as a lease at the inception of the contract, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration..

The group recognizes a right-of-use asset (lease asset) and a lease liability at the lease commencement date.. The asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to restore the underlying asset, less any lease incentives received..

The lease asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset, considered to be indicated by the lease term.. The lease asset is periodically adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability and impairment losses (if any)..

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of outstanding lease payments, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the group's incremental borrowing rate.. Generally, the group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.. The group does separate the payments for lease cars into lease components and non-lease components..

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method and is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate or if the group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option.. A corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset with any excess over the carrying amount of the asset being recognized in profit or loss..

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

The group has elected not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for short-term (term of 12 months or less) leases and leases of low-value assets, including IT equipment.. The group recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term..

Extension options

Extension options are mainly applicable to leased buildings..

The group assesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options at lease commencement and subsequently, if there is a change in circumstances within its control.. Such assessment involves management judgment and estimate based on information at the time the assessments are made..

Extension options are included in the lease term when the group has an economic incentive to exercise the option.. The group considers available evidence at the time of the assessment, including potential favorable terms upon extension, potential termination penalties, the relative costs associated with potential relocation or termination of the lease and the extent of leasehold improvements undertaken..

The size and the relative importance of the lease premises as well as the availability of easily substitutable assets is taken into consideration when assessing whether the group has an economic incentive to extend a lease for which it holds an option to do so..

Cyient is regarded as an associate as TomTom is represented in its Board of Directors.. The fair value of the investment in Cyient is €8 million (2018: €12 million)..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Associates are entities over which the group has significant influence but not control.. This is generally evidenced by a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights.. In some cases.. Other factors can indicate significant influence.. Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost and are subsequently accounted for using the equity method..

The group's share of its associates' post-acquisition profits or losses is recognized in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in 'Other comprehensive income' is recognized in 'Other comprehensive income'.. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment.. When the group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate the group does not recognize further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.. Unrealized gains on transactions between the group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the group's interest in the associates.. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.. Accounting policies of associates has been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group..

During the year, the group completed a capital repayment to shareholders of €3..23 per pre- consolidated share, for a total cash payment of €751 million, followed by a share consolidation, whereby each shareholder received 9 new shares in exchange for 16 old shares.. This concluded the Group's plan to distribute the majority of the proceeds from the sale of Telematics (refer to note 12) to shareholders..

The share consolidation resulted in a reduction in the issued number of ordinary shares by

103 million shares, with a decrease in the number of treasury shares on hand of 1..2 million shares..

In 2019, 2,056,046 treasury shares were issued to cover the exercise of employee stock options and settlement of restricted stock units (2018: 1,194,000 treasury shares).. All shares have

a par value of €0..20 per share (2018: €0..20 per share).. All issued shares have been fully paid.. Further information on the rights, restrictions and other conditions attached to ordinary and preferred shares is provided in the Corporate Governance section in the Annual Report..

Reserves are freely distributable except for €173 million of legal reserves (2018: €234 million).. Note E.. Other reserves in the company financial statements provides an overview of the non- distributable reserves..

The Corporate Governance section provides a detailed description regarding the use of Foundation Continuity TomTom as a protective measure.. Management is of the opinion that the call option as described in the Corporate Governance section does not represent a significant value as meant in IAS 1, paragraph 31, due to the fact that the likelihood that the call option will be exercised is remote.. In the remote event that the call option is exercised, the preferred shares that are issued temporarily are intended to be canceled within a one year period.. The option is therefore not accounted for, nor is further disclosure provided..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as share capital.. Equity instruments are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs..

Share premium

The share premium represents the amount by which the fair value of the consideration received exceeds the nominal value of shares issued.. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds..

Treasury shares

Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity.. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the group's own equity instruments.. Upon reissue, any difference between the carrying amount, determined on a first-in,first-out basis, and the consideration, is recognized in the retained earnings..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.. Treasury shares are deducted from the number of ordinary shares outstanding on a weighted average basis..

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares arising from stock options and other equity-settled stock compensation plans.. When the effect of the equity-settled stock compensation plans is anti-dilutive, the number is excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings..

Adjusted earnings per share

Adjusted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the adjusted earnings by the weighted average number of ordinary and diluted shares outstanding during the year..

27 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The group's activities result in exposure to a variety of financial risks including credit, foreign currency, liquidity, interest rate and capital risk.. Management policies have been established to identify, analyze and monitor these risks, and to set appropriate risk limits and controls..

Financial risk management is carried out in accordance with our Corporate Treasury Policy.. The written principles and policies are reviewed periodically to reflect changes in market conditions, the activities of the business and laws and regulations affecting the group's business..

CREDIT

Credit risk arises primarily from cash and cash equivalents held at financial institutions and, to a certain extent, from trade receivables and contract assets..

Cash balances are held with counterparties that have a credit risk rating of at least BBB-, as rated by an acknowledged rating agency.. Moreover, to avoid significant concentration of exposure to particular financial institutions, we ensure that transactions and businesses are properly spread among different counterparties..

The group's exposure from its customers is managed through establishing proper credit limits and continuous credit risk assessments for each individual customer..

Procedures include aligning credit and trading terms and conditions with an assessment of the individual characteristics and risk profile of each customer.. This assessment is made based on past experiences and independent ratings from external rating agencies whenever available..

The group's exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer.. Management actively monitors the credit risk related to these customers and takes proactive action to reduce credit limits if required..

As at 31 December 2019, the total expected credit loss allowance represented approximately 0..4% of group revenue (2018: 0..3%)..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

In determining the expected credit loss, the group applies the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade and unbilled receivables.. As unbilled receivables share the same risk characteristics as trade receivables for similar types of contracts, the expected loss rates for trade receivables are considered a reasonable approximation of the loss rates for unbilled receivables.. The expected credit loss rates are measured by grouping trade and unbilled receivables based on shared credit risk characteristics and days passed due.. When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account for trade receivables.. The expected loss allowances and any subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off, are recognized in operating expenses within 'Selling, general and administrative'..

FOREIGN CURRENCY

The group operates internationally and conducts business in multiple currencies.. Revenue is earned in EUR, GBP, USD and other currencies, and does not necessarily match the cost of sales and other costs which are largely in EUR and USD.. Foreign currency exposures on commercial transactions relate mainly to estimated purchases and sales transactions that are denominated in currencies other than reporting currency - EUR (€)..

The group manages foreign currency transaction risk through options and forward contracts to cover forecasted net exposures.. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by Corporate Treasury Policy, which is reviewed annually by the Audit Committee..

A 2..5% strengthening/weakening of EUR as at 31 December 2019 would have had the following impact (either an increase/(decrease)) on profit or loss, and equity:

LIQUIDITY

The approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet financial obligations when they fall due under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the group's reputation.. To ensure there is sufficient cash to meet expected operational expenses, including the servicing of financial obligations, actual and future cash flow requirements are regularly monitored, taking into account the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities and the rolling forecast of the group's liquidity reserve, which comprises cash and cash equivalents and a credit facility..

During the year, TomTom refinanced and extended the credit facility agreement (the facility).. The facility is now effective up to 24 June 2024 and comprises of a revolving credit facility for an amount of €75 million with an additional accordion option of €40 million (2018: a revolving credit facility of €250 million)..

Under the covenants of the facility, the group is required to meet certain performance indicators with regard to its leverage ratio (3..0) and interest cover, which is tested quarterly..

Interest cover is defined as the ratio of the last 12 months (LTM) EBITDA to LTM interest expense for the relevant test period.. The leverage ratio is defined as the ratio of total consolidated net debt as at the testing date to the consolidated LTM EBITDA in respect of the relevant period ending on that date.. In case of a breach of these covenants, the banks are contractually entitled to request early repayment of the outstanding amount..

As at 31 December 2019, the group complied with the loan covenants and, based on the group's plan for 2020, management expects to be able to comply with the loan covenants during 2020..

Any borrowings from the credit facility have a one-month maturity period from the date of draw down.. This can be continuously rolled-over up to the end date of the facility agreement at management's discretion.. The interest is in line with market conditions and is based on Euribor plus a margin that depends on certain leverage covenants and the utilization percentage..

No interest is paid on the facility during the periods presented as the facility was undrawn at the end of 2019 and 2018..

INTEREST RATE

Interest rate risk arises primarily from the exposure to interest income/expense on cash balances..

Our intention is to prioritize capital preservation and when possible we invest our surplus cash using approved investment instruments, such as bank deposits and money market fund investments.. All transactions and counterparty risk limits are governed by Corporate Treasury Policy..

CAPITAL

The group's financing policy aims to maintain a capital structure that enables the group to achieve its strategic objectives and daily operational needs, and to safeguard the group's ability to continue as a going concern..

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the group may issue new shares, adjust its dividend policy, return capital to shareholders or sell assets to reduce debt, taking into account relevant interest cover and leverage covenants of external borrowings as disclosed above..

As at 31 December 2019, the group had a net cash position of €437 million (2018: €252 million)..

For further quantitative disclosures in respect of liquidity, interest rate and capital risks, reference is made to note 22 and note 25..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Financial assets

The group classifies its financial assets, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortized cost or at fair value through profit or loss.. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired..

Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets measured at amortized cost are financial assets which are held for the objective of collecting contractual cash flows which are fixed and determinable and consist solely of payments of principal and interest.. They are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost (if the effect of time value is material) using the effective interest method, less any expected credit losses.. Financial assets are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date, which are classified as non-current assets.. For further details regarding expected credit losses, refer to note 27.. Financial risk management..

Financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Derivatives are categorized at fair value through profit or loss unless they are designated as hedges.. Derivatives are recorded as financial assets when the value of the derivative is positive in favor of the company; otherwise the derivative is classified as a financial liability.. All derivative financial instruments are classified as current or non-current assets or liabilities based on their maturity dates and are accounted for at trade date.. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the group has substantially transferred all risks and rewards

of ownership..

Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Financial liabilities issued by the group are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into, and the definition of a financial liability.. Financial liabilities are initially recognized and measured at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost..

Fair value estimation

The group classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements..

>>The fair value hierarchy divides the inputs into the following levels:

>>Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

>>Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (for example, derived from prices); and

>>Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data..

The fair value of financial assets/liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss is determined using valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market data where it is available and which rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates.. In accordance with the fair value hierarchy established by IFRS 13, these types of inputs classify as level 2 inputs..

  2. In 2019, releases of warranty claims resulted from lower warranty claims as more consumers preferred to replace impacted PND's.. Releases in claims and litigations mainly reflects the expiry of statute of limitations..

ACCOUNTING POLICY

Provisions are recognized when:

>>The group has a present obligation as a result of a past event;

>>It is probable that the group will be required to settle that obligation; and >>The amount can be reliably estimated..

Provisions are measured at management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, and are discounted to present value where the effect is material..

Warranty provision

The group generally offers warranties for its products.. Provisions for warranty costs are recognized at the date of sale of the relevant products, at management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the group's obligation.. Warranty costs are recorded within cost of sales

Claims and litigation provision

The group made a provision for potential legal, tax penalties and other risks in various jurisdictions.. The legal matters consist mainly of intellectual property infringement issues.. In the normal course of business, the group receives claims relating to allegations that it has infringed intellectual property assets..

In such cases, the companies making the claims seek payments that may take the form of licenses and/or damages.. While these claims will be resisted, some are likely to be settled by negotiation and others are expected to result in litigation..

The cases and claims against the group often raise difficult and complex factual and legal issues which are subject to many uncertainties and complexities, including but not limited to the facts and circumstances of each particular case and claim, the jurisdiction in which each suit is brought, and the differences in applicable law.. In the normal course of business, management consults with legal counsel and certain other experts on matters related to such claims and litigation.. The group accrues a liability when it is determined that an adverse outcome is more likely than not, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated..

If the likelihood of an adverse outcome is reasonably possible or an estimate is not determinable, the matter is disclosed, provided it is material.. Management is of the opinion that the provision is adequate to resolve these claims..

Pension provision

Pension provisions relates to the defined benefit pension plan in Germany and Belgium as disclosed in note 7..

Other provisions

Other provisions relates mainly to provisions for expected restructuring expenses..

SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

Warranty provision

Management estimates the related provision for future warranty claims based on historical warranty claim information, as well as evaluating recent trends that might suggest that past cost information may differ from future claims.. From the total warranty provision of €13 million (2018: €30 million), it is estimated that an amount of €6..7 million (2018: €18 million) will be utilized within 12 months while the remaining will be utilized between 1-3 years..

Claims and litigation provision

The methodology used to determine the amount of the liability requires significant judgments and estimates regarding the costs of settling asserted claims.. Due to the fact that there

is limited historical data available, the estimated liability cannot be based upon recent settlement experience for similar types of claims..

Based on the best estimate, the portion of the claims and litigation provision expected to be settled in the coming 12 months amounts to approximately €1..2 million (2018: €1..9 million)..

31 COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The group has long-term financial commitments, which are not shown in the group's balance sheet as at 31 December 2019.. These commitments relate mainly to service contracts with suppliers..

Also included is open purchase commitments with contract manufacturers for certain products and components.. Contract manufacturers order the requisite component parts from their suppliers on the basis of forecasts of the number of units required..

REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2019 INCLUDED IN THE ANNUAL REPORT

OUR OPINION

We have audited the financial statements 2019 of TomTom N..V.., based in Amsterdam.. The financial statements include the consolidated financial statements and the company financial statements..

In our opinion:

>>The accompanying consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of TomTom N..V.. as at 31 December 2019 and of its result and its cash flows for the year 2019 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union (EU-IFRS) and with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code

>>The accompanying company financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of TomTom N..V.. as at 31 December 2019 and of its result for 2019 in accordance with Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code

104

We believe the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion..

OUR AUDIT APPROACH

Our understanding of the business

TomTom N..V.. develops and sells navigation and location-based products, and services which includes maps, traffic, navigation software and personal navigation devices (PNDs).. The group is structured in components and we tailored our group audit approach accordingly.. We paid specific attention in our audit to a number of areas driven by the operations of the group and our risk assessment..

We start by determining materiality and identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud, non-compliance with laws and regulations or error in order to design audit procedures responsive to those risks, and to obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control..

MATERIALITY

BENCHMARK APPLIED

EXPLANATION

FINANCIALS SUPERVISORY

The consolidated financial statements comprise:

>>The consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2019

>>The following statements for 2019: the consolidated statement of income, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows

>>The notes comprising a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information

The company financial statements comprise:

>>The company balance sheet as at 31 December 2019 >>The company statement of income for 2019

>>The notes comprising a summary of the accounting policies and other explanatory information

BASIS FOR OUR OPINION

€6..45 million

1..25% of gross profit

(2018: €7..20 million)

(2018: 1..5% of gross profit)

Based on our professional judgment we have considered earnings-based measures, such as profit before tax and gross profit, as the appropriate benchmark to determine materiality..

We believe the gross profit is a suitable basis, as the gross profit is an important measure of the company's performance.. Gross profit as percentage of revenues is increasing, mainly as a result of the sale of TomTom Telematics and decreasing revenues from the Consumer segment.. We lowered the benchmark percentage to 1..25% to balance these changes in revenue mix and gross profit..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

We conducted our audit in accordance with Dutch law, including the Dutch Standards on Auditing.. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the "Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements" section of our report..

We are independent of TomTom N..V.. in accordance with the EU Regulation on specific requirements regarding statutory audit of public-interest entities, the Wet toezicht accountantsorganisaties (Wta, Audit firms supervision act), the Verordening inzake de onafhankelijkheid van accountants bij assurance-opdrachten (ViO, Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, a regulation with respect to independence) and other relevant independence regulations in the Netherlands.. Furthermore we have complied with the Verordening gedrags- en beroepsregels accountants (VGBA, Dutch Code of Ethics)..

We have also taken into account misstatements and/or possible misstatements that in our opinion are material for the users of the financial statements for qualitative reasons..

We agreed with the supervisory board that misstatements in excess of €322,000, which are identified during the audit, would be reported to them, as well as smaller misstatements that in our view must be reported on qualitative grounds..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

OUR FOCUS ON FRAUD AND NON-COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS Our responsibility

Although we are not responsible for preventing fraud or non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations, it is our responsibility to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements, taken as a whole, are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error..

Non-compliance with laws and regulations may result in fines, litigation or other consequences for the company that may have a material effect on the financial statements..

Our audit response related to fraud risks

In order to identify and assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements due to fraud, we obtained an understanding of the entity and its environment, including the entity's internal control relevant to the audit and in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances.. As in all of our audits, we addressed the risk of management override of internal control.. We do not audit internal control per se for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company's internal control..

We considered available information and made enquiries of relevant executives, directors (including internal audit, legal and compliance) and the supervisory board.. As part of our process of identifying fraud risks, we evaluated fraud risk factors with respect to financial reporting fraud.. In our risk assessment we considered the potential impact of performance based bonus schemes which the company has in place.. Furthermore, as TomTom N..V.. is a global company, operating in multiple jurisdictions, we considered the risk of bribery and corruption..

We evaluated the design and the implementation of internal controls that mitigate fraud risks.. In addition, we performed procedures to evaluate key accounting estimates for management bias in particular relating to important judgment areas and significant accounting estimates as disclosed in Note 3 to the financial statements.. We have also used data analysis to identify and address high-risk journal entries..

We incorporated elements of unpredictability in our audit.. We considered the outcome of our other audit procedures and evaluated whether any findings were indicative of fraud or non- compliance.. If so, we reevaluate our assessment of fraud risk and its resulting impact on our audit procedures..

Our audit response related to risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations

We assessed factors related to the risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general industry experience, through discussions with the management board, reading minutes, read internal audit and compliance reports, and performing substantive tests of details of classes of transactions, account balances or disclosures..

We also inspected lawyers' letters and correspondence with regulatory authorities and remained alert to any indication of (suspected) non-compliance throughout the audit.. Finally we obtained written representations that all known instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations have been disclosed to us..

GOING CONCERN

In order to identify and assess the risks of going concern and to conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting, we consider based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern..

If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report.. However, future events or conditions may cause a company to cease to continue as a going concern..

SCOPE OF THE GROUP AUDIT

TomTom N..V.. is the parent of a group of entities.. The financial information of this group is included in the consolidated financial statements of TomTom N..V..

As processes are highly centralized, we have applied a centralized audit approach.. We have performed all audit procedures ourselves at group level for the accounts which were of most significance for our audit..

Our audit coverage for total assets, revenues and gross profit can be summarized as follows: >>For total assets our audit procedures achieved a coverage of 99%..

>>For revenues and gross profit our audit procedures achieved a coverage of 100%..

By performing the procedures mentioned above we have been able to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence about the group's financial information to provide an opinion about the consolidated financial statements..

TEAMING, USE OF SPECIALISTS

We ensured that the audit team included the appropriate skills and competences which are needed for the audit of a listed client in this industry.. We included specialists in the areas of IT audit, forensics, income tax, impairment testing and actuaries..

>>Evaluating whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation

OUR KEY AUDIT MATTERS

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements.. We have communicated the key audit matters to the supervisory board.. The key audit matters are not a comprehensive reflection of all matters discussed.. In comparison with previous year, our key audit matters did not materially change..

These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters..

Risk

Our audit approach

Key observations

TomTom's Location Technology segment includes sales contracts that involve performance obligations for which revenue is recognized based on their stand-alone selling prices.. As such revenue recognition is based on estimates and assumptions that are complex and require significant management judgment in the areas of determining the relative stand-alone selling prices of the elements, estimation of contract values and the timing of revenue recognition..

Considering the nature of the business, inherently the aforementioned estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition could be influenced by management and consequently we identified the risk of management override in relation to revenue recognition..

Our audit procedures included an assessment of the appropriateness of the Company's revenue recognition policies, understanding of the internal control environment, substantive data analytics procedures on revenues and substantive procedures relating to the estimated contract value for relevant contracts, contractual terms and conditions including the appropriate accounting thereof..

For a sample of contracts containing performance obligations, we assessed the allocation of revenue to the separate performance obligations, based on the estimated stand-alone selling prices of each performance obligation and if applicable assessed the estimated contract values..

We also assessed the adequacy of the Company's disclosure around revenues as included in note 5..

Management has updated the assumptions and estimates used based on the latest available (historic) data and expectations.. We agree with the assumptions and estimates used by management..

Based on our procedures performed we did not identify errors that require adjustment of the financial statements including revenue related disclosures..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT

Risk

Our audit approach

Key observations

At 31 December 2019, the total carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets amounts to €572 million (PY: €827 million).. The decrease mainly relates to accelerated amortization as a result of changes to the useful life of certain intangible assets following technological and economic developments..

Goodwill is tested for impairment at least on an annual basis.. Other intangible assets are tested for impairment when a triggering event has been identified that indicates the carrying amount may not be recoverable..

The valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets is significant to our audit due to the significance of the amount and the fact that the impairment test calculations are based on several key assumptions which are estimated by management, and are by nature judgmental.. Key assumptions include the expected future cash flows for the five year forecasting period, the discount rate and perpetual growth rate per cash generating unit..

There was no impairment loss recorded during 2019 relating to goodwill and other intangible assets..

We challenged management's reassessment of useful lives for certain elements of intangible assets (maps) including comparison with market benchmarks..

We involved a valuation expert in evaluating the goodwill impairment testing model and assumptions used by management.. Specific attention was paid to the consistency of the impairment model and assumptions applied including the forecasted revenue growth.. In addition we assessed the adequacy of the disclosures, including key assumptions and that no sensitivity disclosures were required..

We also assessed the adequacy of the Company's disclosure around goodwill as included in note 13..

Management has updated the key assumptions and related forecast in the impairment models..

Useful lives of intangible assets and forecasted revenue growth are significant assumptions however they are in line with management's expectations, external developments and benchmarks, historic trend and developments in order intake and backlog..

Based on our procedures performed we did not identify errors that require adjustment of the financial statements including related disclosure of goodwill impairment..

Risk

The Company completed the sale of Telematics on 1 April 2019..

Management continued Telematics to be accounted for as a discontinued

operations and as assets held for sale up to completion of the sale..

Management has accounted for the result of business disposal in accordance

with IFRS 5..

The accounting for the Telematics disposal is significant to our audit due

to the significance of the transaction and complexity of accounting..

Our audit

Our audit procedures included, amongst others, assessing the

approach

appropriateness of the Company's accounting policies in relation to the

assets held for sale, discontinued operations and result on business disposal

as well as the basis for the accounting of discontinued operations, result

on business disposal and assessment of compliance with the respective

accounting policies..

We assessed the Company's accounting for the Telematics sale as result

on business disposal in accordance with IFRS.. Audit procedures included

inspection of the sales contract, reconciliation to bank statements and

accounting entries.. We also assessed the adequacy of the Company's

disclosure as included in note 12..

Risk

We agree with the accounting of the Telematics sale as result on business

disposal including disclosures..

DESCRIPTION OF RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

RESPONSIBILITIES OF MANAGEMENT AND THE SUPERVISORY BOARD FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with EU-IFRS and Part 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code.. Furthermore, management is responsible for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error..

As part of the preparation of the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern.. Based on the financial reporting frameworks mentioned, management should prepare the financial statements using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.. Management should disclose events and circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern in the financial statements..

The supervisory board is responsible for overseeing the company's financial reporting process..

OUR RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our objective is to plan and perform the audit engagement in a manner that allows us to obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence for our opinion..

Our audit has been performed with a high, but not absolute, level of assurance, which means we may not detect all material errors and fraud during our audit..

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.. The materiality affects the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and the evaluation of the effect of identified misstatements on our opinion..

We have exercised professional judgment and have maintained professional skepticism throughout the audit, in accordance with Dutch Standards on Auditing, ethical requirements and independence requirements.. The Our audit approach section above includes an informative summary of our responsibilities and the work performed as the basis for our opinion..

COMMUNICATION

We communicate with the supervisory board regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant findings in internal control that we identify during our audit.. In this respect we also submit an additional report to the audit committee in accordance with Article 11 of the EU Regulation on specific requirements regarding statutory audit of public-interest entities.. The information included in this additional report is consistent with our audit opinion in this auditor's report..

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FINANCIALSSUPERVISORY BOARD REPORT MANAGEMENT BOARD REPORT WE ARE TOMTOM

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT CONTINUED

We provide the supervisory board with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards..

From the matters communicated with the supervisory board, we determine the key audit matters: those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements.. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, not communicating the matter is in the public interest..
