The variation under this heading during 2024 reached EUR 652 million, mainly due to the EUR/US dollar foreign exchange rate effect and the accumulated depreciation. The additions primarily pertain to the ultimate capacity works in North Tarrant Express.
During 2023, the variation was EUR -172 million mainly due to the scope changes following the sale of Euroscut Azores in Portugal for EUR -254 million in May 2023 and the EUR/US dollar foreign exchange rate negative effect (EUR -374 million). The additions pertained primarily to the investments in I-66 and North Tarrant Express Extension.

Also worth mentioning is the effect on other movements of the 5% stake divestment in IRB Infrastructure Developers (EUR -77 million), the availability concession assets sold to Interogo Holding in October 2024 (EUR -70 million), and the sale of 24.78% stake in Grupo Serveo (EUR -21 million), partially offset by the derivatives impact (EUR 20).
During 2023, this caption increased by EUR 87 million due to the capital contributions to JFK NTO Airport (EUR 214 million), and the share of these companies’ profits (EUR 215 million), relating primarily to 407 ETR (EUR 154 million), which was partially offset by dividend distributions during the year, particularly by 407 ETR.
Goodwill
The company recognizes goodwill for the consideration transferred in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired in the context of business combinations, such as those that involve infrastructure projects.
Regarding the changes in Goodwill, in 2024 there was an increase of EUR 25 million, primarily due to the exchange rate, and in 2023, there was a decrease of EUR -5 million, also as a result of exchange fluctuations.
