ADPI

Related to some past activities of ADPI, came to light a non-notified tax adjustment risk concerning corporation tax for 2008, 2009 and 2010 which was accounted as a provision for €6 million.

New presentation of financial statements1

Since 1st January 2013, Aéroports de Paris Group has applied the amendment to standard IAS 19 revised "Employee benefits" that eliminates the option allowing differing recognition of actuarial gains and losses of employee benefit obligations, called the "corridor approach". As a consequence, all actuarial gains and losses of employee benefit obligations are now immediately recognised in "Other Comprehensive Income".

Beyond the adoption of this amendment, Aéroports de Paris Group chose to recognise from now on the expense relative to retirement benefit obligations by distinguishing the cost of current services (in operating income), the interest cost related to retirement commitments (in financial income), according to this standard. Until 2012 these expenses were entirely recorded in operating income.

H1 2012 pro forma consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the changes described above:

First half results in line with 2013 forecasts

In millions of euros H1 2013 H1 2012
pro forma
2013 / 2012
Revenue 1,346 1,267 +6.2%
EBITDA 487 468 +4.1%
Operating income from ordinary activities 286 286 0.0%
Operating income 286 286 0.0%
Net finance costs (67) (63) +7.7%
Net income attributable to the Group 125 145 -13.9%

Over the first half of 2013, the consolidated revenue increased by 6.2%, to €1,346 million. This rise mainly results from:

  • the strong growth in revenue from retail and services (+7.4%, to €472 million) thanks particularly to the good performance of retail (+10.5%);
  • the positive development of revenue generated by aviation (+4.0%, to €791 million) mainly driven by increases in tariffs on 1 April 2012 (+3.4%) and on 1 April 2013 (+3.0%), and by a positive passenger-traffic mix;
  • the continued growth of real estate (+6.7%, to €133 million);
  • and the increase in revenue from other activities (+13.9%, to €129 million) mainly linked to the acquisition of the Nomadvance Group by Hub Télécom in August 2012.

Intersegment eliminations amount to €184 million for the first half, up by 4.2%.

EBITDA is growing (+4.1% at €487 million), reflecting partially a growth in revenue (+6.2%, at €1,346 million) greater than the growth in operating costs (+5.4%, at €893 million). Excluding impacts of first-quarter snowfall (+€18 million) and the scope effect linked to Nomadvance integration in August 2012 (+€15 million), operating costs would have increased by 1.5%. The gross margin rate decreased by 0.7 points, to 36.2%.

Capitalised production, which relates to the capitalisation of internal engineering services provided within the framework of investment projects, was down by 5.2% at €30 million, due to the delivery in 2012 of major projects: mainly satellite 4 and the A-C junction.

Raw materials and consumables used increased by 33.8% to €75 million, on the one hand as a result of increased purchases of winter products (+€12 million) in 2013 due to first-quarter snowfall, and on the other hand due to a scope effect (+€8 million) following the acquisition of Nomadvance.

The costs related to external services increased by 1.8% to €336 million, mainly following the impact of the strengthening of winter operations (+€6 million).

Employee benefit costs increased by 5.9% and amounted to €378 million. The average number of employees stands at 9,162, up by 2.8% compared to the first-half of 2012.

Taxes (other than income taxes) decreased by 3.8% to €92 million due to a regularisation in favour of Aéroports de Paris.

Other operating income and expenses were down by 75.0%, at €4 million, due to an unfavourable base effect linked to the positive impact of non-recurring items in the first half of 2012.

Operating Income from ordinary activities is virtually stable at €286 million, impacted by the increase in depreciation and amortisation (+12.9 %, to €215 million) that was partially offset by the increase in the share of profit of associates from operating activities (+60.6%, to €14 million). This increase in depreciation and amortisation is explained by the opening of new infrastructures in 2012 (satellite 4 and A-C junction) and an amortisation of €4 million linked to the disposal of aircraft stands.

Operating income is virtually stable at €286 million.

The net finance cost is a loss of €67 million, an increase of 7.7% essentially due to an increase in debt.

The net debt/equity ratio stood at 87% as at 30 June 2013 compared to 81% at the end of 2012. Group net debt stood at €3,170 million as at 30 June 2013 compared to €3,003 million at the end of 2012.

The income tax expense increased by 16.0% to €92 million over the first half of the year, because of: a provision of €6 million related to a tax adjustment risk, the new 3% tax on dividends and the capping of the deduction of net financial charges.

Taking into account the above elements, the net income attributable to the Group decreased by 13.9%, at €125 million.

Aviation

In millions of euros H1 2013 H1 2012
pro forma
2013 / 2012
Revenue 791 761 +4.0%
Airport fees 431 413 +4.4%
Ancillary fees 99 86 +14.9%
Airport security tax 240 240 -0.1%
Other revenue 21 22 -1.4%
EBITDA 145 146 -0.9%
Operating income from ordinary activities 8 28 -69.9%

Over the first half of 2013, aviation revenue increased by 4.0% to €791 million.

Revenue from airport fees (passenger fees, landing fees and aircraft parking fees) was up 4.4%, at €431 million, over the first half of 2013, benefiting from the combined increase in tariffs (+3.4% on 1 April 2012 and +3.0% on 1 April 2013) and an improved passenger-traffic mix (international traffic grew by 2.6% vs 0.5% for total traffic).

Ancillary fees were up 14.9%, at €99 million, mainly due to the increase in proceeds from the deicing fee (+112.3%, at €20 million; up €11 million) following heavy snowfall in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in proceeds from the de-icing fee was more than offset by an increase in purchases of winter products (+€12 million) and sub-contracting (+€6 million). The negative impact of snowfall on EBITDA was around €7 million.

The income from airport security tax is virtually stable, at €240 million, mirroring the stagnation in security-related costs.

Other revenue, which mostly consists in re-invoicing the French Air Navigation Services Division and leasing associated with the use of terminals, was slightly down, at €21 million.

As a result of an increase in operating costs of 4.6%, which was linked to the impact of snowfall on raw material and consumable used and on sub-contracting charges, EBITDA was down by 0.9%, at €145 million. The gross margin rate reached 18.3%, down by 0.9 points.

Depreciation and amortisation increased by 15.2%, to €137 million following the opening of new infrastructures in 2012 (satellite 4 and A-C junction) and an amortisation of €4 million linked to the disposal of aircraft stands. Operating Income from ordinary activities was down by 69.9%, from €28 to €8 million.

Over the first half of 2013, retail and services revenue increased by 7.4% to €472 million.

The revenue from retail (rents received from shops, bars and restaurants, advertising, banking and foreign exchange activities, and car rental companies) grew by 10.5%, to €181 million. Rents from airside shops stood at €128 million, up 10.1%, thanks to the strong increase in sales per passenger1 (+8.5% to €17.6). This performance was mainly attributable to the very good results of duty-free shops over all terminals at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport, whose sales per passenger sharply increased (+6.3% to €32.3) driven by the strong growth in traffic in high-yield destinations such as Russia (+14.0%) or China (+8.9%) and the continued healthy performance of fashion & accessories and gastronomy activities.

Revenue from car parks rose slightly, by 2.8%, to €82 million.

Revenue from the provision of industrial services (electricity and water supply) increased by 2.7% to €39 million.

Rental revenue (leasing of space within terminals) increased by 6.8%, to €53 million, mainly thanks to the opening of satellite 4.

Other revenue essentially consisted of internal services and increased by 8.1%, to €117 million.

EBITDA rose by 5.6%, to €261 million. The gross margin rate was down 1 point at 55.3%.

Operating Income from ordinary activities increased by 5.0%, to €213 million, impacted by a strong increase in depreciation and amortisation (+8.3%) partially offset by the growth in the share of profit of associates from operating activities (+10.4% to €3 million).

Over the first half of 2013, real estate revenue increased by 6.7%, to €133 million.

External revenue2 grew by 6.7%, to €107 million, driven by the positive impact of indexing revenue to the cost of construction on 1 January 2013 (+4.6%) and rents from new occupancies of lands and buildings. Internal revenue grew by 7.0%, to reach €26 million.

2015 targets1

EBITDA growth for the 2009-2015 period should still range between +25% and +35% assuming:

  • traffic growth of between 1.9% and 2.9% per annum on average between 2010 and 2015,
  • the increase in the parent company's operating charges are limited to less than 3% per year on average between 2012 and 2015 thanks to the cost-saving plan allowing savings of between €71 and €81 million in 2015,
  • the Return On Regulated Asset Base ranges between 3.8% and 4.3% in 20152 ,
  • sales per departing passenger at airside shops of €19.0 in 2015.

Events having occurred since 30 June 2013

18 July 2013 announcement

Augustin de Romanet, Chairman and CEO of the Aéroports de Paris Group, presented the Group strategic orientations to the works council on 18 July 2013, in accordance with the French code law n°2013-504 dated 14 June 2013 relative to employment protection.

Six strategic principles were presented to the works council in order to enhance the Aéroport de Paris' attractiveness to airlines and passengers: the improvement in the quality of customer service as well as employee satisfaction; the strengthening of the operational robustness of airports; the optimisation of economic performance; the objective of becoming a European reference in Environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility (ECSR) and the ambition to seize opportunities of international development.

The implementation of this strategy would lead to the setting up of a multiannual recruitment plan in passenger handling positions (120 employees) and in technical and maintenance trades (60 employees) along with a draft voluntary departure plan.

The latter, for which it is proposed to trade unions to open a negotiation, would concern a maximum of 370 positions at the parent company, Aéroports de Paris. It would take place on a purely voluntary basis, essentially through end-of-career leaves and through support for personal projects (setting up of new businesses, retraining to other activities, …). Envisaged for spring 2014, its implementation would provide a boost to Aéroports de Paris' recruiting policy on positions essential to the provision of customer care, as mentioned above, as well as reaching the target modified in December 2012 on the change in the staffing levels at the parent company over the Economic Regulation Agreement 2011-2015 period signed with the French State.

Passenger traffic for July 2013 and preliminary figures for August 2013

In July 2013, Aéroports de Paris saw 8.8 million passengers, a slight decrease of 0.4%, on July 2012. 6.0 million passengers travelled through Paris-Charles de Gaulle (-0.5%) and 2.8 million passengers through Paris-Orly (-0.2%).

From 1 to 21 August 2013, Aéroports de Paris saw 6.0 million passengers, an increase of 4.6% compared to the same period in 2012.
