Group Interim Management Report

Information about reporting

The scope of consolidation in the first half of 2016 differed from that in the same period in the previous year as follows, in particular:

  • Fraport sold its shares in the Group company Air-Transport IT Services on April 22, 2015. In the first half of 2015, the Group company generated revenue in the amount of €4.9 million, EBITDA of €0.3 million, EBIT of €0.1 million, and a result of €0.1 million.

  • On November 2, 2015, Fraport also sold 51% of its capital shares in the Group company Fraport Cargo Services (FCS). In the first six months of the previous year, the company generated revenue in the amount of €31.4 million, EBITDA of –€2.0 million, EBIT of –€2.8 million and a result of –€3.2 million for the Fraport Group. On account of the sale of shares, FCS has since been consolidated as a joint venture under companies accounted for using the equity method. In the first half of 2016, FCS made a negative contribution of –€0.5 million to earnings on a pro rata basis.

An overview of the calculation of financial key figures and a description of specialist terms are presented on page 204 of the 2015 Annual Report.

Overview of Business Development

  • A slight drop in passenger numbers of 0.9% at the Frankfurt site.

  • Mixed developments in traffic at Group airports outside Frankfurt.

  • A slight drop in Group revenue of 1.4% to €1,224.8 million due to several factors, including the sale of shares in FCS in the previous year.

  • Revenue adjusted by IFRIC 12 at €1,215.8 million (–1.5%).

  • Group EBITDA at €378.4 million, a decrease of 1.7% against the previous year.

  • A €3.3 million drop in the Group result to €99.7 million.

  • Basic earnings per share at €1.00 (–€0.06).

  • A €19.0 million decrease in operating cash flow to €257.6 million.

  • Changes in working capital, higher cash flow used in investing activities and one-time tax effects in the first quarter of 2016 led to a €40.4 million decrease in free cash flow to €149.3 million.

Situation of the Group

Changes during the Reporting Period

During the reporting period, there have been no significant changes to the situation of the Fraport Group as presented in the 2015 Group management report with respect to operating activities, strategy, and control (see 2015 Annual Report beginning on page 25).

Economic Report

General Statement of the Executive Board

In the first six months of fiscal year 2016, passenger traffic slightly decreased (–0.9%) at the Frankfurt site. Following a growth in passenger numbers in the first quarter (+3.3%), various terrorist attacks in Europe and weather-related restrictions led to a significant drop in the passenger numbers in the second quarter. The cargo tonnage was around 1.0 million metric tons and thus 0.4% higher than the previous year's figure. Passenger development was inconsistent at Group airports outside Frankfurt. Whereas the airports in Antalya, St. Petersburg, Ljubljana, and Hanover saw some significant decreases in traffic, passenger numbers at the other Group sites increased noticeably. The decreases at the Antalya and St. Petersburg sites were caused by the political situation in Turkey and by the difficult economic and political situation in Russia and the associated absence of Russian travelers.

Due to changes in the scope of consolidation, Group revenue was also €17.1 million (–1.4%) below the previous year's value, at €1,224.8 million. Adjusted for changes in the scope of consolidation, Group revenue increased by €19.2 million (+1.6%). Revenue performance was affected positively by various factors, including more revenue from sales of land. Outside Frankfurt, the Group companies Lima and Twin Star in particular contributed to revenue growth.

Group EBITDA decreased by 1.7% to €378.4 million, due in part to declining passenger numbers in Frankfurt coinciding with weaker retail business. With depreciation and amortization virtually unchanged, Group EBIT stood at €214.6 million (–3.3%). The slight improvement in the financial result and lower taxes on income led to a Group result of €99.7 million (–3.2%).

In light of the geopolitically difficult environment with some clear decline in traffic at the Fraport Group airports, the Executive Board nonetheless describes the Fraport Group's performance in the reporting period as solid.

Economic and Industry-Specific Conditions

Development of economic conditions

The world economy is currently growing at a moderate rate. In the first quarter of 2016, the pace of growth slowed in the United States, while gross domestic product in the Eurozone was up 0.5%. Although China's growth is strong compared to other emerging countries, it is nonetheless significantly less dynamic than in previous years. This has put a strain on Chinese trade relations, which has had a dampening effect on world trade. Commodity-exporting countries such as Russia and Brazil are suffering from low crude oil and commodity prices. These have picked up in recent months, however, which can be seen as a sign that the global economy is recovering.

For the German economy, the first quarter of 2016 was a positive one. Gross domestic product grew by 0.7% on a seasonally and priceadjusted basis during this period. The domestic economy remained the determining factor, although exports experienced a slight revival. Stable price levels, rising employment and the increase in private household income have led to a further increase in consumer spending.

Development of the legal environment

During the reporting period, there were no changes to the legal environment that had a significant influence on the business development of the Fraport Group.

Development of the global aviation market

According to the preliminary figures from Airports Council International (ACI), global passenger traffic grew by 5.9% in the January to May 2016 period. In the same period, air freight volume rose by 0.2%. European airports achieved a slightly lower growth in passenger numbers of 5.6%. In air freight, the performance of the European airports was 2.7%, significantly higher than the overall performance. Passenger numbers at German airports grew by 3.3 % up to and including May 2016. The cargo tonnage (air freight and air mail) developed above the global level with an increase of 1.4%.

Significant Events

The risk of terrorism affects air traffic in Europe

The recent terrorist attacks in Paris and at the international airports of Brussels-Zaventem and Istanbul-Ataturk are negatively impacting passengers' travel behavior. Especially traffic to North Africa, which consists primarily of tourists, has been declining as of last year with the terrorist attacks in Tunisia and Egypt. Many travel agents have removed destinations in North Africa from their product ranges. Turkey is now also experiencing pressure on its attractiveness as a holiday destination due to the ongoing terrorist threat. The number of leisure trips is decreasing significantly at present, not only to Istanbul, but also to Turkey's coastal tourist areas. Tourist traffic from intercontinental destinations to Frankfurt also appears to have been negatively affected by current events in Europe, however.

Acquisition of 14 Greek regional airports

The Executive Board expects to complete preparations for the integration of 14 Greek regional airports into the Fraport Group towards the end of this fiscal year. At that time, the concessionary companies will make the one-time payment of €1,234 million and takeover the operation of the airports. Once the conditions precedent have been fulfilled during the reporting period, in particular that of antitrust law approval by the European Union (EU), the Executive Board expects the project financing to be finalized as at the end of the year. The expected effects from the closing of the transaction on the short to medium-term asset, financial, and earnings position of the Fraport Group are included in the Outlook Report of the 2015 Annual Report from page 94 onwards.

No other events that have had or will have a significant effect on the business development of the Fraport Group have occured over the past reporting period.

Business Development

Development at Frankfurt site

At around 28.7 million, passenger numbers in the first half of 2016 were just under the previous year's level (–0.9%). While even higher numbers were achieved in the first quarter (further revived by the leap day in February), a phase of reduced demand began after Easter. The terrorist attacks that took place in various countries during this period caused increasing uncertainty regarding passengers' travel behavior in the second quarter of 2016. This led to a global drop in bookings. The most affected destinations were Turkey, Egypt, and Tunisia. The regional shift in demand did, however, benefit holiday destinations such as the Balearic Islands, as well as long-haul destinations like Cuba, Mexico, and Thailand. Overall, intercontinental traffic decreased (–0.4%). European traffic suffered the largest drop (–1.3%), while domestic traffic remained at the same level.

In the first half of 2016, cargo volume increased by 0.4% compared to the previous year to around 1.0 million metric tons. After a loss of 1.0% in the first quarter, freight traffic increased in the second quarter, recording growth of 2.3%. This development was accompanied by the upturn in the German logistics market and a rise in export forecasts in the German industrial sector. Tonnage with North and South America declined while Far Eastern traffic increased significantly, driven primarily by China.

Ongoing consolidation measures from airlines and the sustained tendency to use larger aircraft resulted in a 1.0% reduction in aircraft movements in the first six months of 2016, to around 227,000 take-offs and landings. In contrast, maximum take-off weights went up by 1.2%, reaching a new record high.

Development outside the Frankfurt site

At Ljubljana Airport, passenger numbers in the first six months of 2016 were 4.5% lower than in the same period in the previous year at around 598,000. While there were more passengers on routes to Paris and Belgrade, passenger numbers fell on routes to and from Istanbul, Zurich and Brussels.

Lima Airport again showed a strong increase in passenger numbers of 11.0% in the first half of 2016, to just over 8.9 million. Both domestic traffic (+13.3%) and international traffic (+8.4%) grew during the reporting period. Cargo throughput was around 123,000 metric tons. This figure was below the previous year's level (–6.4%).

The Bulgarian airports in Varna and Burgas carried some 1.2 million passengers in the reporting period, thus around 24.8% more than in the first half of 2015. Both sites benefited from the tense geopolitical situation in Turkey and North Africa. Travelers from Germany, Poland and the UK in particular favored Bulgaria as a holiday destination.

At Antalya Airport, just over 7.3 million passengers in the first six months of 2016 signified a drop of 30.5%. Whereas the number of Turkish domestic passengers continued to rise significantly by 10.7% to almost 3.3 million, the number of international passengers decreased by 46.6% to around 4.0 million. This decrease was due in particular to a lack of Russian and German leisure travelers.

At just under 5.7 million travelers, passenger traffic at St. Petersburg Airport saw a decrease in the reporting period of 6.5% compared with the previous year. Whereas international traffic significantly decreased by 22.1% due to the difficult economic and political situation in Russia, national traffic increased by 4.5%.

With over 2.4 million passengers, the Hanover site experienced a slight drop of 0.7% in the first six months of the 2016 fiscal year.

Xi'an Airport continued to show a dynamic development as passenger numbers increased by 11.3% to approximately 17.5 million. High-volume domestic traffic rose by 10.7% to around 16.3 million passengers. International traffic grew by 20.9% to around 1.3 million passengers.

Delhi Airport achieved a significant increase of 21.5% in the reporting period compared to the previous year with around 26.9 million travelers. Significant growth continued to be reported in domestic traffic, with a strong increase of 27.5 %. International passenger numbers increased by 8.0%. Freight volume also showed a sharp rise again (+10.6%).

Results of Operations

Group

Revenue and total revenue

Due to changes in the scope of consolidation, Group revenue in the first six months of 2016 was €17.1 million (–1.4%) below the previous year's figure, at €1,224.8 million. Adjusted for changes in the scope of consolidation from the sale of shares in FCS and the sale of Air-Transport IT Services, Group revenue increased by €19.2 million (+1.6%). Negative effects on revenue resulted both from declining passenger numbers at the Frankfurt site and from the loss of the tender to perform security services at Pier B. Revenue performance was affected positively by various factors, including more revenue from sales of land (6M 2016: €11.6 million compared with 6M 2015: €4.1 million). Beyond Frankfurt, the Group companies Lima, Twin Star, and AMU Holdings Inc. contributed to the growth in revenue. Group revenue included revenue of €9.0 million in connection with the application of IFRIC 12 (previous year: €7.2 million).

Despite the gain from the sale of Air Transport IT Services realized during the reporting period of the previous year amounting to €8.0 million, other operating income increased, due in part to the release of allowances on accounts receivable of €19.2 million (previous year: €17.9 million). Total revenue reached a value of €1,258.8 (–1.2%).

Expenses

Operating expenses (material costs, personnel expenses, and other operating expenses) amounting to €880.4 million were €9.1 million lower than in the previous year. Adjusted for changes to the scope of consolidation, operating expenses were up by €29.1 million. Increased expenses were primarily due to increased concession fees, resulting from traffic volumes, from the Group company Lima (+€6.3 million) and higher costs associated with increased revenue from sales of land. Higher expenses were also due to collective wage agreements for Fraport AG employees (+€8.3 million), higher non-capitalizable capital expenditure in Frankfurt (+€4.2 million) and from marketing costs for the online shopping platform in Frankfurt of around €1.7 million.

EBITDA and EBIT

The €6.6 million fall in Group EBITDA to €378.4 million was due in particular to declining passenger numbers in Frankfurt coinciding with weaker retail business. The EBITDA margin was 30.9% (previous year: 31.0%). Virtually unchanged depreciation and amortization led to a reduced Group EBIT of €214.6 million, down €7.3 million (previous year: €221.9 million).

Financial result

At –€68.8 million, the negative financial result was almost completely consistent with the previous year's value (previous year: –€69.7 million). On the one hand, interest expenses were reduced due to a lower level of gross debt and lower average interest rates. On the other hand, the result from companies accounted for using the equity method worsened, particularly due to the negative development in Antalya (–€15.7 million). The other financial result in the previous year included in particular higher unrealized foreign currency losses resulting from the market valuation of a CHF loan.

EBT, Group result, and EPS

The stable development of the financial result led to an EBT that declined by €6.4 million to €145.8 million (–4.2%). At an expected tax rate of 31.6%, (previous year: 32.3%) and an income tax expense of €46.1 million (previous year: €49.2 million), the Group result reached a value of €99.7 million (–€3.3 million or –3.2%). Correspondingly, this resulted in basic earnings per share of €1.00 (–€0.06).

Table 4 Table 5

In the first six months of 2016, revenue in the Aviation segment decreased from €444.0 million to €431.7 million (–2.8%). Negative effects on revenue resulted both from declining passenger numbers at the Frankfurt site, as well as from the loss of the tender to perform security services at Pier B, the non-recurrence of one-time effects in the previous year, and the loss of revenue from the re-allocation of infrastructure costs. Virtually unchanged operating expenses led to segment EBITDA of €95.7 million (–6.5%). Due to slightly higher depreciation and amortization, segment EBIT dropped by €9.4 million to €33.5 million (–21.9%).

Revenue in the Retail & Real Estate segment increased in the first half of 2016 from €233.1 million to €239.9 million (+2.9%). Revenue performance was affected positively by various factors, particularly higher revenue from sales of land (6M 2016: €11.6 million compared with 6M 2015: €4.1 million) and the changed presentation of rental income due to changes in the scope of consolidation concerning the Group company FCS (+€3.3 million). In addition, among others, the release of allowances on accounts receivable increased the other income in the segment (+€7.7 million).

Segment revenue was negatively affected primarily by weaker retail business (–€5.0 million) due to changes in the passenger mix and a lower average spend per passenger, which was due in part to exchange rate effects. Net retail revenue per passenger was €3.51 (previous year: €3.63). Reduced passenger numbers to China, Russia, Japan, and Vietnam were one of the causes of this. Passengers on these routes tend to spend more. The depreciation of various currencies against the euro, including the Chinese renminbi and the Russian ruble, also resulted in a decline in purchasing power for the respective nationalities. The significant depreciation of the euro against the Swiss franc created further incentives to buy in the eurozone in the previous year.

Higher expenses resulted from marketing costs for the online shopping platform of around €1.7 million, non-capitalizable capital expenditure (+€1.9 million), and staff numbers and price effects (+€0.8 million). Additional expenses arose also from the allocation of infrastructure costs in the Aviation segment and higher expenses associated with increased revenue from sales of land. EBITDA was down slightly by €1.6 million on the previous year, at €182.3 million (–0.9%). Virtually unchanged depreciation and amortization led to EBIT of €140.3 million. Compared with the previous year, this was a fall of €2.3 million or 1.6%.

In the first half of 2016, revenue from the Ground Handling segment was down €24.1 million on the previous year at €308.9 million (–7.2%), due in particular to the sale of shares in FCS. Adjusted for the effects from the sale of shares, this segment saw growth in revenue of €7.3 million or 2.4%. The adjusted increase was caused by a number of factors, including a change in the presentation of personnel expenses as a result of changes in the scope of consolidation of the Group company FCS, as well as more revenue from infrastructure charges. Due in particular to the lower personnel expenses and cost of materials associated with the sale of shares in FCS in the previous year and the drop in passenger numbers, the segment achieved an EBITDA increase from €12.6 million to €17.7 million (+€5.1 million). EBITDA increased by approximately €3.1 million after adjustment for the direct negative contribution to EBITDA from FCS in 2015. Segment EBIT remained negative at –€1.7 million, but did improve year on year by €6.9 million. EBIT improved by €4.1 million in comparison with the previous year after adjustment for the direct negative contribution to EBIT from FCS.

In the first six months of 2016, revenue in the External Activities & Services segment increased by €12.5 million to €244.3 million (+5.4%). Adjusted for the sale of shares in Air-Transport IT Services, the segment recorded an increase in revenue of €17.4 million or 7.6%. This growth in revenue was driven by the Group companies Lima (+€11.6 million), Twin Star (+€3.1 million), AMU Holdings Inc. (+€1.0 million), and Ljubljana (+€0.3 million). Segment revenue included revenue of €9.0 million in connection with the application of IFRIC 12 (previous year: €7.2 million).

The gain of €8.0 million realized from the sale of Air Transport IT Services in the previous reporting period and increased expenses in the service sectors at the Frankfurt site led to a lower segment EBITDA of €82.7 million (–€3.4 million). Adjusted for changes to the scope of consolidation, this was a decrease of €3.1 million (– 3.6%). At €42.5 million with slightly lower depreciation and amortization, the segment EBIT was €2.5 million below the level for the previous year (–5.6%). Adjusted for changes to the scope of consolidation, the decline was €2.4 million (–5.3%).

3) Figures according to the separate financial statement.

In the first half of 2016, the Fraport Group company AMU Holdings Inc. achieved revenue amounting to €29.7 million, EBITDA of €6.0 million, EBIT of €2.0 million and a result of €2.0 million.

With falling passenger numbers, the Fraport Group company Ljubljana reported revenue of €16.3 million, EBITDA of €5.7 million, EBIT of €0.5 million and a result of €0.5 million in the first six months of 2016.

Helped by good traffic development, the Group company Lima realized strong growth in revenue, EBITDA, EBIT and results in the first half of 2016, with increases of €11.6 million, €5.3 million, €5.6 million and €4.4 million, respectively.

Thanks to a significant rise in passenger numbers, the Group company Twin Star recorded a mid single-digit € million rise in revenue, EBITDA, EBIT and results in the first half of 2016.

Owing to the significantly lower traffic volume, the Antalya Group company, which is accounted for using the equity method, saw a steep decline in financial figures in the first six months of 2016. Revenue shrank by €43.8 million to €63.9 million (–40.7%), EBITDA by €42.4 million to €44.7 million (–48.7%), EBIT from €38.2 million to –€4.4 million (>–100%) and the result fell from €0.8 million to –€30.4 million (>–100%).

Due to the outcome of currency fluctuations and traffic volumes, the Pulkovo/Thalita Group company, which is accounted for using the equity method, reported a decline in revenue of €114.5 million to €80.6 million (–29.6%) in the reporting period. The Group company's EBITDA of €39.1 million (–29.5%), EBIT of €23.4 million (–34.1%), and result of €0.2 million (>–100%) worsened significantly.

Despite a slightly negative traffic development at the Hanover Group company, which is accounted for using the equity method, revenue, EBITDA, EBIT and the result improved in the low single-digit € million range.

The Xi'an Group company, which is accounted for using the equity method, saw an increase in the site's traffic in the first six months of 2016, which was reflected in its revenue, EBITDA, EBIT, and result for the period.

Asset and Financial Position

Asset and capital structure

In comparison with the 2015 balance sheet date, the total assets of the Fraport Group fell slightly as at June 30, 2016 from €8,847.3 million to €8,810.0 million (–0.4%). The non-current assets were, on account of declining property, plant, and equipment, falling investments in companies accounted for using the equity method, and smaller "Other financial assets", €88.1 million below the level as at December 31, 2015 (–1.1%). Current assets increased by €50.8 million to €971.8 million (+5.5%) due, inter alia, to maturity-related reclassifications.

Due to the pay-out of the profit earmarked for distribution for the previous fiscal year, shareholders' equity in the reporting period decreased slightly from €3,511.7 million to €3,493.8 million (–0.5%). The shareholders' equity ratio stood at 38.7% (December 31, 2015: 37.4%). Non-current debts were slightly down by €10.6 million to €4,220.0 million (–0.3%) and current debts also shrank on account of declining "Provisions" from €1,105.0 million to €1,096.2 million.

As at June 30, 2016, gross debt stood at €3,821.1 million, a €3.7 million increase over the level on December 31, 2015. After deducting the Group's liquidity of €1,042.6 million (December 31, 2015: €1,043.1 million), the net financial debt of €2,778.5 million was 0.2% higher in comparison with the 2015 balance sheet date (December 31, 2015: €2,774.3 million). The gearing ratio reached a level of 81.4% (December 31, 2015: 83.7%).

Additions to non-current assets

In the first six months of fiscal year 2016, additions to non-current assets of the Fraport Group amounted to €177.0 million and were thus €68.9 million above the comparable figure for the previous year of €108.1 million. Of this amount, €113.7 million was attributed to property, plant, and equipment (previous year: €87.4 million), €50.8 million to "financial assets" (previous year: €4.5 million), €0.5 million to "investment property" (previous year: €5.1 million), and €12.0 million to "other intangible assets" and "airport operating projects" (previous year: €11.1 million). The capitalization of interest expenses relating to construction work amounted to €8.9 million (previous year: €7.7 million).

At €108.4 million, the greater part of additions was attributed to Fraport AG (previous year: €90.6 million). The focus areas were capital expenditure in the existing infrastructure as well as various construction activities for Terminal 3. Additions to financial non-current assets resulted in particular from securities and the positive contribution to earnings of the Group company Xi'an, which is accounted for using the equity method.

Statement of cash flows

Cash flow from operating activities (operating cash flow) in the first half of 2016 was down €19.0 million on the previous year at €257.6 million (–6.9%). The cause of the decline was higher payments in particular for taxes on income.

In the reporting period, the cash flow used in investing activities without investments in cash deposits and securities rose in comparison with the previous year by €30.9 million to –€106.6 million (+40.8%). This was mainly caused by greater cash flow used in investing activities (–€22.5 million). The free cash flow fell by €40.4 million to €149.3 million due to the reduced operating cash flow (previous year: €189.7 million). Taking into account investments in, and proceeds from, securities and promissory note loans as well as returns from time deposits with a term of more than three months, total cash flow used in investing activities was €41.1 million (previous year: cash inflow of €58.2 million).

As a result of taking up loans amounting to €295.0 million and repayments of financial liabilities amounting to €471.3 million, cash flow used in financing activities was €150.3 million (previous year: €320.8 million). Taking into account exchange rate fluctuations, Fraport held cash and cash equivalents according to the statement of cash flows amounting to €294.0 million as at the end of the first half of 2016 (€104.5 million above the level of the first half of 2015).

In connection with the financing of the concession in Antalya, as at June 30, 2016, unchanged bank deposits of €23.3 million were subject to drawing restrictions. The following table shows a reconciliation to cash and cash equivalents as shown in the statement of financial position.

Customer satisfaction and product quality

Global satisfaction of passengers

The global satisfaction of passengers at the Frankfurt site was 82% in the first half of 2016, two percentage points above the level of the previous year (previous year: 80%). After reaching 82% in the first quarter, global satisfaction in the second quarter, too, was 82% (Q1 of the previous year: 79%, Q2 of the previous year: 80%).

Punctuality rate

The punctuality rate at the Frankfurt site in the first half of 2016 was 80.4% (previous year: 80.2%). Following a good first quarter of 2016 with a figure of 83.4% (previous year: 81.5%), the rate in the second quarter was 77.8% and therefore 1.4 percentage points lower than in the same period in the previous year (79.2 %). In June 2016 in particular, the punctuality rate was negatively affected by numerous weather-related delays in air traffic and, at 70.2 %, was the lowest monthly punctuality rate as of past five years.

Baggage connectivity

Baggage connectivity at the Frankfurt site improved to a level of 98.9% in the first half of 2016 (previous year: 98.7%). In the first quarter of 2016 in particular, connectivity rose by 0.4 percentage points (99.1% compared to 98.7% in the first quarter of 2015). In the second quarter of the reporting period, the level remained constant at 98.7% (Q2 2015: 98.7%).

Equipment availability rate

At the start of the current fiscal year, the method of determining the equipment availability rate was adjusted. Up to 2015, the rate was determined on the basis of technical availability; as of 2016 it has been determined on the basis of availability for passengers. There was no retroactive adjustment to the previous year's values. According to the adjusted calculation method, the equipment availability rate in the reporting period was 96.9%. In the second quarter, the rate reached a value of 96.8%. With an average availability of 88.7%, the availability of the Skyline train in particular had a negative effect on the total availability of the equipment in the reporting period due to a varied range of construction activities.

Appeal as an employer

Employee satisfaction

The employee satisfaction survey will be launched in the 16 participating Group companies towards the end of the third quarter of 2016.

Employee safety and health management

The rate per 1,000 employees is exclusively assessed on an annual basis as at the reporting date on December 31.

Table 11

Compared with the same period of the previous year, the average number of employees in the Fraport Group (excluding apprentices and employees on leave) decreased to 20,323 in the first half of 2016 (previous year: 20,691). In Germany, there was less demand for manpower, particularly in the Group company APS Airport Personal Services (–177 employees), as a result of reduced traffic volume at the Frankfurt site. The average number of employees in the reporting period continued to decline owing to the sale of shares in the FCS Group company in November 2015 (–389 employees). The opposite effect on the development of employees in the Group could be seen from the increase in headcount in the FraSec Group company (+114 employees). Outside Germany, headcount rose because of the increased traffic in Bulgaria (+81 employees).

Development of total employees in the Group

Total employees as at the reporting date June 30, 2016 June 30, 2015 Change Change in %
Fraport Group 23,548 23,973 –425 –1.8

thereof abroad 3,105 3,054 51 1.7
Table 12

Compared with the previous year's balance sheet date, the number of total employees (including joint ventures, temporary employees, apprentices, and employees on leave) of the Fraport Group as at June 30, 2016 fell by 425 to 23,548 (June 30, 2015: 23,973 employees). The decline as at the balance sheet date at Fraport AG of 297 employees is mainly due to employees taking up partial retirement. The reduction in Germany also resulted from the sale of shares in the FCS Group company in November 2015 (– 416 employees). Abroad, there were lower levels of staffing inter alia on account of the sale of the Air-Transport IT Services Group company (–77 employees) and traffic-related reductions in the Antalya Group company (–134 employees). The opposite trend was registered by the Twin Star Group company because of growth in traffic (+226 employees).

Research and Development

As stated in the 2015 Group management report, as a service-sector group, Fraport does not engage in research and development in the strict sense, therefore further disclosures in accordance with GAS 20 do not apply (see 2015 Annual Report, page 68). However, Fraport continues to utilize suggestions for improvements and innovations from employees, which play a successful role in retaining and expanding its international competitiveness (see 2015 Annual Report beginning on page 74).

There were no significant changes resulting from ideas and innovations influencing business development in the reporting period.

Share

Share price performance, index base 100

Share performance

The German equity markets recorded a negative development in the first half of 2016. At 9,680 points, Germany's benchmark DAX index closed 9.9% lower than the 2015 fiscal year's closing price. In the same period, the MDAX suffered a decline of 4.5% and closed at 19,843 points as at the end of the first six months of 2016. In the first quarter of 2016 alone, the DAX lost 7.2%, whereas the MDAX only faced a slight decline of 1.8%. The slump on the German stock exchange continued in the second quarter of 2016. Above all, the expected negative consequences of the UK's decision to leave the EU following the referendum at the end of June 2016 led to a further worsening in mood. On the other hand, the low interest rates and overall slightly favorable economic conditions continued to have a positive impact.

The Fraport share developed negatively within this challenging market environment. After a price drop of 9.6% in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, the share price once again fell significantly by 9.9% to €48.03 in the second quarter. Cumulatively, the decline in the first half year was 18.5% or, taking into account the dividend payment of May 23, 2016 amounting to €1.35 per share, 16.2%.

The shares of other stock-exchange listed European airports performed as follows in the reporting period: AENA +11.8%, Aéroports de Paris –8.4%, Vienna Airport +14.2%, and Zurich Airport +14.3%.

Dividend for the fiscal year 2015 (resolution on the appropriation of earnings)

As in the previous year, the 2016 Annual General Meeting passed a resolution to pay out a dividend of €1.35 per share for the fiscal year 2015. Compared to the share closing price in 2015 of €58.94, this corresponded to a dividend yield of 2.3% (previous year: 2.8%). The profit earmarked for distribution used for this of €124.7 million (previous year: €124.7 million) therefore corresponded in relation to Fraport AG's result for the year 2015 of €211.7 million (previous year: €178.5 million) – to a pay-out ratio of 58.9% (previous year: 69.9%) or – in relation to the Group result attributable to shareholders of Fraport AG of €276.5 million – of 45.1% (previous year: 53.1%).

Significant Events after the Balance Sheet Date

Application to increase airport charges submitted

After the application for airport charges made on July 1, 2015 was withdrawn by Fraport on October 29, 2015, due to differences of opinion between Fraport and the Hessian Ministry of Economics, Energy, Transport and Regional Development (HMWEVL) with regard to the calculation of significant cost items in calculating the airport charges, Fraport submitted an amended application to HMWEVL for the Frankfurt site for the intended increase in airport charges by an average of 1.9% for 2017. The submission of the application has no effect on the forecasted development of the asset, financial, and earnings position for the 2016 fiscal year.

Fraport AG Frankfurt Airport Services Worldwide (Fraport AG) obtained agreement on July 31, 2016, together with its consortium partners, to sell shares in Thalita Trading Ltd. to the Qatar Investment Authority. In doing so, Fraport AG will reduce its equity share in Thalita Trading Ltd. from 35.5 to 25%. In conjunction with this, a subsidiary of Fraport AG will also sell loans provided to Thalita Trading Ltd. Fraport AG will continue to retain its role as airport operator. Closing of the transaction is still subject to approval by the Russian Government and the senior project finance lenders. Fraport AG now assumes that the approvals will be obtained and the transaction will be closed during the second half of 2016. Based on the current book values Fraport AG expects the total transaction to generate a gain between €30 million and €40 million, which will fully impact the Group EBITDA, EBIT, and EBT in the 2016 business year and will positively influence the Group result.

There were no other significant events after the balance sheet date for the Fraport Group.

Outlook Report

General Statement of the Executive Board

The Executive Board now forcasts an estimated slight decline in passenger development at the Frankfurt site for the 2016 fiscal year because of the challenging traffic development to date. Group-wide, the Executive Board expects inconsistent traffic development because of current geopolitical crises. Because of the sale of shares to the operating company of the Pulkovo airport in St. Petersburg (Thalita Trading Ltd.) and the current passenger forecast for Frankfurt airport, which is why the Executive Board continues to adhere to its forecasts for the Fraport Group's asset, financial, and earnings position in the 2016 fiscal year. Group-wide, positive as well as negative effects may continue to arise from exchange rate fluctuations, which may impact the purchasing power of passengers in the retail shops. Above all, the development at the St. Petersburg and Antalya sites may, because of the continuing tense economic and political situation in Russia and – in particular at the moment following the attempted coup in July 2016 – in Turkey, continue to influence both the traffic outlook and the forecasted group-wide results of operations.

At the closing of the reporting period, the Executive Board continues to assess that there are no significant risks that might jeopardize the Fraport Group as a going concern. The Executive Board continues to examine opportunities for optimizing the asset and financial position and aims to expand the external business with a focus on revenue. In connection with the acquisition of the 14 Greek regional airports, the Executive Board expects them to be taken over into the Fraport Group towards the end of the current fiscal year. The plan is to finalize the project financing for the end of the year. The forecast for the current 2016 fiscal year does not include any effects from the operation of this transaction. Further acquisitions or disposals of businesses are likewise not included in the forecast. The Executive Board continues to assess the financial situation in the forecasted period as stable.

Risk and Opportunities Report

In the 2015 Group Management Report, Fraport reported on potential risks for the Antalya Group company resulting from terrorist attacks, political unrest and conflicts on the border between Iraq and Syria (see 2015 Annual Report, beginning on page 88). Moreover, potential negative effects from recent tensions between Russia and Turkey were described that resulted in Russia imposing sanctions and an associated suspension of charter traffic as of January 1, 2016. The latter risk, which was assessed as being "likely" to occur and resulting in a "very high" level of damage, had developed as at March 31, 2016 such that an almost complete loss of Russian passengers was taken into account in the forecasted result for the Group company in 2016. Since Russia decided to lift sanctions against Turkey on June 30, 2016, it can be expected that charter traffic from Russia to Turkey will resume, which will result in a slight recovery. As a whole, the Executive Board now assumes, compared to the forecast of December 31, 2015 and of the first quarter of 2016, that there will be a slight improvement in Russian passenger numbers in the second half of 2016.

As already reported in the first quarter of 2016, the worsening security situation in Turkey has in the recent past given rise to the risk of additional negative development in other European passenger traffic. This risk assessment has been confirmed over the course of the year. If this risk is realized, "significant" negative consequences can be expected. If the traffic situation does not improve significantly, it is also possible that complying with the obligations in the financing agreement between Antalya and the financing banks cannot be fully guaranteed. The occurrence of this risk is rated "unlikely" owing among other things to the constant and constructive dialog with all interested parties; it could lead to "greatly" negative consequences, however, if this risk were to materialize.

Business Outlook

Forecasted situation of the Group for 2016

The forecasted situation of the Fraport Group for 2016 as presented in the 2015 Group management report remains unchanged with respect to operating activities, structure, strategy, and control of the Group (see 2015 Annual Report beginning on page 94).

Forecasted economic and industry-specific conditions for 2016

Development of the economic conditions

Financial and economic institutions expect weaker growth in the world economy for 2016. Following global economic growth of approximately 3.1% in 2015, an increase of 2.4to 3% is expected for the current fiscal year. Global trade will rise by up to 2.7%, according to current forecasts. In industrial countries, inflation at a restrained level is expected. The expansionary monetary policy of the central banks is counteracted by the price drop in energy. With regard to the € to US\$ exchange rate, it is assumed that the slight depreciation trend will continue. There are currently no signs on the part of the US Federal Reserve of a change in the ongoing low interest-rate policy. The UK's decision to leave the EU may further strain the exchange rate of the € to the US\$. Overcapacity in the worldwide oil trade is continuing to result in a low oil price, as the oil industry in the USA was able to compensate for restrictions on the quantities of oil produced by OPEC. Consequently, the oil price may rise slightly if there is an expansion in the world economy, but a return to a high price level such as in 2014 appears unlikely.

The USA will continue to show positive growth in 2016 (GDP forecast is approximately 1.9%). While only moderate development is anticipated in Japan – due to a limited economic policy stimulus and the consolidation of public finances – the growth rates for emerging countries are again expected to significantly exceed those for industrial countries. Growth in China is likely to weaken.

The short and medium-term effects of the pending UK departure from the EU on the economy of the eurozone are hard to forecast. Economic institutions as a whole are reducing their growth forecasts for Europe. For the 2016 fiscal year, growth in economic performance of approximately 1.6% is forecasted. Given the close trading relations with the UK economy, moderate development in growth is expected for Germany in 2017, in particular. The forecast on export performance in particular is more conservative; however, it is not expected to harm domestic demand, because the drivers job market and construction investments continue to provide positive stimuli. Many forecasts for Germany therefore assume growth in the range of 1.5% to 1.7% and are thus slightly below the level for the previous year.

The following growth rates are expected for the countries with key investments: Bulgaria +2.3 %, China +6.6 %, Greece +0.6 %, Peru +3.7%, Russia –1.2%, Slovenia +1.9%, and Turkey +3.8%.

Development of the legal environment

No further changes to the legal environment that would have a significant influence on the business development of Fraport can currently be discerned.

Development of the global aviation market

Based on the expected development of economic conditions, and taking into account the financial situation of the airlines, IATA anticipates global passenger growth of 6.2% in 2016, based on revenue passenger kilometer (RPK). Regionally IATA anticipates the following growth rates (also based on RPK): Europe: 4.9%, North America: 4%, Asia-Pacific: 8.5%, Latin America: 4.2%, Middle East: 11.2%, and Africa: 4.5%. Globally, cargo is expected to grow by 2.1%. While passengers are benefiting from the low price of jet fuel, cargo growth is suffering from the stagnation in world trade.

Forecasted business development for 2016

Taking account of the economic and industry-specific conditions, business development to date, and the intensity that is hard to predict of any strikes and developments on key tourist markets that result from geopolitical crises as well as on account of terrorist threats, the Executive Board has adjusted its forecasted passenger traffic for the 2016 fiscal year for the Frankfurt site. Following positive traffic development in the first quarter, but worse in the second, uncertainties continue to result from political crises and the short-term yield and capacity management of the airlines. In this context, the Executive Board now expects a slight decline in passenger traffic. However, the extent of the decline is particularly difficult to predict for inbound intercontinental passenger traffic due to recent terror attacks. If the uncertainties described above continue or even increase, this might have a dampening effect on future growth in traffic. With regard to cargo tonnage handled, the Executive Board does not expect a recovery compared to 2015 in fiscal year 2016 and expects cargo throughput at around the level of 2015. The momentum of world trade remains weak, however the world economic climate has improved a little recently.

Since the economic and political development of Russia remains hard to predict and because of the latest political and terrorist incidents in Turkey, the traffic prospects of the St. Petersburg and Antalya airports continue to face great uncertainty. Whilst a decline in passenger numbers in the mid single-digit range is forecasted for St. Petersburg Airport, the Executive Board expects to lose close to one third of total passengers for Antalya Airport. The collapse in international passengers

is once again expected to be significantly higher. As at the editorial deadline, the Executive Board still did not see any positive effects, despite the lifting of sanctions by Russia and the end of the previous related cessation of charter traffic to Turkey. The consequences of the attempted coup in July 2016 in particular may also have a dampening effect. The airports in Varna and Burgas, however, will develop very positively and may inter alia also benefit from the negative developments in other holiday regions. Therefore the Executive Board expects growth rates in the low double-digits for both locations. Based on the positive economic assumptions and tourism forecasts, the Executive Board expects further significant growth at Lima Airport at a high single-digit growth rate and at the Xi'an site at a low double-digit growth rate in the 2016 fiscal year. For the Ljubljana Group company, the Executive Board forecasts declines in the mid single-digit percent range.

Forecasted results of operations for 2016

Due to the sale of shares in the operating company of Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg (Thalita Trading Ltd.) and the slight decline now expected in passenger development in Frankfurt, the Executive Board continues to adhere to its forecasts for the asset, financial, and earnings position of the Fraport Group in the 2016 fiscal year (see Annual Report 2015 beginning on page 94).

Forecasted segment development for 2016

Within the segments the Executive Board expects – in contrast to the forecasts made in the 2015 Annual Report – due to the slight decline in passenger development at the Frankfurt site a significant worse development of the segment EBITDA and segment EBIT (forecast at the start of the fiscal year: slightly above the 2015 level or slightly better development). In Ground Handling, the Executive Board expects a slightly better development of the segment EBITDA and segment EBIT (forecast at the start of the fiscal year: value slightly above the level of the previous year or slightly stronger growth than the segment EBITDA). The sale of shares in the operating company of Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg will enhance the other income from the External Activities & Services segment and the Executive Board therefore expects a significant increase in segment EBITDA and EBIT (forecast at the start of the fiscal year: increase in segment EBITDA and EBIT of up to €10 million each).

Forecasted non-financial performance indicators for 2016

The Executive Board also confirms its forecast for the development of the non-financial performance indicators in the 2016 fiscal year (see 2015 Annual Report beginning on page 94).

Where the statements made in this document relate to the future rather than the past, they are based on a number of assumptions about future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of Fraport AG Frankfurt Airport Services Worldwide and which could have the effect that the actual results will differ materially from these statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the competitive environment in deregulated markets, regulatory changes, the success of business operations, and a substantial deterioration in basic economic conditions in the markets in which Fraport AG Frankfurt Airport Services Worldwide and its Group companies operate. Readers are cautioned not to rely to an inappropriately large extent on statements made about the future.

1) The carrying amount equals the fair value of the financial instruments. Table 23

Given the short terms, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and current other financial receivables and assets as at the reporting date correspond to the fair value.

The fair values of listed securities are identical to the stock market prices on the reporting date. The valuation of unlisted securities was based on market data applicable on the valuation date using reliable and specialized sources and data providers. The values are determined using established valuation models.

The derivative financial instruments relate to interest rate hedging transactions. The fair values of these financial instruments are determined on the basis of discounted future expected cash flows, using market interest rates corresponding to the terms to maturity.

In order to determine the fair value of financial liabilities, the future expected cash flows are determined and discounted based on the yield curve on the reporting date. The market-driven and maturity-linked risk premium of the respective borrower on the reporting date is added to the cash flows.

Other investments mainly relate to shares in Delhi International Airport Private Ltd. The fair value was determined based on a current bid and taking current foreign currency rates into account.

The fair values of loans to joint ventures and associated companies, as well as other non-current financial assets, are determined as the present value of future cash flows. Discounting was applied using the current maturity-linked interest rate as at the balance sheet date. The fair value of the loan including interest receivables to NCG is mainly affected by cash flow forecasts and interest rate developments.

The carrying amounts of other loans correspond to the respective fair values. Some of the other loans are subject to a market interest rate, and their carrying amounts therefore represent a reliable valuation for their fair values. Another part of the other loans is reported at present value as at the balance sheet date. The remaining other loans are promissory note loans with a remaining term of less than four years. Due to the lack of an active market, no information is available on the risk premiums of their respective issuers. As the promissory note loans are mainly floating interest rate loans, their carrying amounts were used as the most reliable value for their fair values. There is no intention to sell as at the balance sheet date.

Non-current liabilities are recognized at their present value. Interest rates with similar terms on the date of addition are used as a basis for discounting future cash outflows. To determine fair value, the respective cash outflows are discounted at interest rates with similar terms and with the Fraport credit risk as at the reporting date. The carrying amounts of current liabilities are equal to the fair value. There is a general interest rate risk for fixed-interest loans that are extended at the ends of their terms.

The fair values of financial instruments belong to the following measurement categories of the hierarchy pursuant to IFRS 13:
