The consolidated annual accounts were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 27, 2025. The Directors expect that these consolidated annual accounts will be approved at the General Shareholders' Meeting without modification. The consolidated annual accounts for the year 2023 were approved at the General Shareholders' Meeting held on June 6, 2024.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND COMPARABILITY OF THE INFORMATION
2.1 Basis of presentation
2.1.1 General information
The consolidated annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ('IFRS-EU'), which are effective as of December 31, 2024, and other provisions of the applicable financial reporting framework. The accompanying consolidated annual accounts were obtained from the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, and show the true and fair view of the Group's equity, financial position, results and cash flows for the year.
The consolidated annual accounts have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value, and liabilities derived from defined benefit plans and certain share-based payments.
The presentation currency of the Group is the euro. The consolidated statement of financial position is presented with a difference between current and non-current items, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is presented by nature of expense. The presentation by nature highlights better the different components of the financial performance of the Group and enhances predictability of the business. The Group decided to prepare the consolidated statement of cash flows by applying the indirect method.
As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the Group has reported negative working capital. This situation is typical within the industry and aligns with the Group's financial structure. It has not impeded the normal progression of the Group's operations.
2.1.2 Use of estimates
Use of estimates and assumptions is required in the preparation of the consolidated annual accounts in accordance with IFRS-EU. The estimates and assumptions affect the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Those with a significant impact in the consolidated annual accounts are discussed in different sections of this document:
- _ Estimated recoverable amounts used for impairment testing purposes (note 7)
- _ Income tax assets and liabilities (note 21)

- _ Expected credit losses (note 11)
- _ Amortization period for non-current non-financial assets (note 4)
The estimates and assumptions are based on the information available at the date of issuance of the consolidated annual accounts, past experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable at that time. The actual results might differ from the estimates.
The geopolitical situation in Middle East and Russia has not had a significant impact on the operations, financial performance, financial position and cash-flows of the Group.
2.2 Comparison of information
For comparison purposes, the Group presents, together with the amounts included in the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and the consolidated statement of cash flows at and for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, comparative information in the notes when it is relevant to better understand the consolidated annual accounts for the current year.
The presentation, classification, and aggregation of certain items in the consolidated annual accounts have been revised. Non-material reclassifications have been made to ensure the information is comparable with the previous year and to enhance the comprehension of the consolidated annual accounts.
Except where indicated otherwise, the figures of the consolidated annual accounts are expressed in millions of euros.

3. PROPOSED APPROPRIATION OF THE PARENT COMPANY´S RESULTS AND OTHER RESERVES
The Board of Directors will submit to the Ordinary General Shareholders´ Meeting for approval, a final gross dividend of €1.39 per share carrying dividend rights, from 2024 profit for the year. Based on the above, the proposed appropriation of the results for the year ended December 31, 2024, is as follows:
| Euros |
|---|
| 1,156,831,614.25 |
| 530,637,719.30 |
| 626,193,894.95 |
| 1,156,831,614.25 |

Additionally, the following amount of special reserves is proposed to be reclassified as retained earnings:
| Euros | |
|---|---|
| Amount for appropriation: | |
| Special reserves | 138,823,055.04 |
| Appropriation to: | |
| Retained earnings | 138,823,055.04 |
On December 18, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors proposed a fixed dividend distribution of 2024 profit for the year of an equivalent 50% of the consolidated net profit, this way reaching the maximum percentage of the dividend distribution policy of the Company. Consequently, an interim dividend distribution was approved from the 2024 profit of the year, amounting to €0.5 per share with dividend rights, paid on January 17, 2025, for a total amount of €221.0 million.
In accordance with article 277 of the Spanish Capital Companies Act, the following table shows a summary for the provisional statement issued by the Directors to substantiate the Company has sufficient liquidity at that time to distribute the interim dividend:
| Liquidity statement as of December 18, 2024 | Millions of euros |

4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
4.1 Adoption of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
The Group has applied the following amendments issued and endorsed by the EU for the first time for the annual reporting period commencing January 1, 2024:
- _ Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (issued on September 22, 2022)
- _ Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements:
- Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (issued on January 23, 2020);
- Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current Deferral of Effective Date (issued on July 15, 2020); and
- Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (issued on October 31, 2022)
- _ Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Supplier Finance Arrangements (issued on May 25, 2023)

The aforementioned amendments did not have any impact on the amounts recognized in prior or current periods.
The following amendment published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has already been endorsed by the EU in 2024 and will be effective from January 1, 2025:
_ Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability (issued on 15 August 2023)
The Group considers that this new amendment will not have a significant impact on its consolidated annual accounts.
4.2 Material accounting policy information
Only the material accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated annual accounts and those where IFRS-EU allows a policy choice are disclosed below.
4.2.1 Principles of consolidation and investments in associates and joint ventures
The consolidated annual accounts include the Company and all its subsidiaries within the scope of consolidation. Subsidiaries are those entities over which an entity within the Group has control.
Control is achieved when the Group has power over the investee, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns.
When control of a subsidiary is lost, the Group derecognizes all assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests at their carrying amount and recognizes the fair value of the consideration received. Any retained interest in the former subsidiary is recognized at its fair value at the date control is lost. The resulting difference is recognized as a gain or loss in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Other income / (expense)' caption.
Changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control are treated as equity transactions.
The stand-alone financial statements of each of the subsidiaries are prepared using each subsidiary's functional currency. As the consolidated annual accounts are presented using the euro, the assets and liabilities for each subsidiary are translated into euros at year-end closing rates; components of profit or loss and of other comprehensive income for the year are translated at average monthly exchange rates; and share capital, additional paid-in capital, and reserves are translated at historical rates. Any exchange differences arising because of this translation, for subsidiaries and investments in associates and joint ventures, are recognized together as a separate component in 'Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations' caption in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and in 'Unrealized gains / (losses) reserve' caption in the consolidated statement of financial position. In the case of translation differences related to not wholly-owned subsidiaries and attributable to non-controlling interests, these are included in 'Noncontrolling interests' caption within equity.
Although the Group has subsidiaries in Argentina, Ghana, Lebanon and Turkey, and an investment in an associate in Sudan that comply with the definition of hyperinflationary economies, due to the immateriality of their transactions' volume and of their remaining balances, no restatements to adjust the effects of inflation have been performed.
Investments in associates and in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Gains and losses arising from transactions between the Group and the associates or joint ventures have been eliminated to the extent of the Group's interests in the relevant entity.
The assessment on whether the Group has significant influence or not in an investment is based not only on the actual ownership percentage, but also on qualitative factors such as representation on the board of directors, participation in decision-making activities, material transactions and provision of technical information.
4.2.2 Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are converted at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transactions.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash equivalents are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in 'Exchange gains / (losses)' caption. All other exchange gains and losses are presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as part of operating income.
4.2.3 Impairment of goodwill and other non-current non-financial assets
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. For the purpose of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets: cash generating units (CGUs).
Goodwill is tested for impairment together with the assets corresponding to the CGU (or group CGUs) that are no larger than a segment, and that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. These assets will also include the intangible assets with indefinite useful life (such as the Amadeus Brand), to the extent that they do not generate separate cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. The carrying amount of the CGU (or group of CGUs) is compared with its recoverable amount and any impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value by applying a discount rate.
The rest of the assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. To assess if there is any indication of impairment, the Group checks the accumulated revenues generated from individual intangible assets during the year and their expected growth considering the experience to ensure the recoverability of the assets. An impairment test is performed, if as a result of the individualized analysis a significant decline is identified on the expected future economic benefits.
Corporate assets cannot be reasonably allocated to the group of CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated and are tested for impairment at Group level, that is the smallest group of CGUs to which the carrying amount of corporate assets can be allocated. Corporate assets are mainly composed of buildings, right of use assets, data processing assets and corporate technology.
The impairment of non-current non-financial assets, excluding goodwill, is reviewed at the end of each reporting period to assess its possible reversal.

4.2.4 Intangible assets
Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Intangible assets are reviewed periodically and adjusted, if needed, as noted in 4.2.3 above.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives as follows:
- _ 'Patents, trademarks, licenses and others' includes the net cost of acquired brands and trademarks either by means of business combinations or in separate acquisitions. When a brand is deemed to contribute to the Group net cash inflows indefinitely, it is not amortized but annually tested for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. In all other cases, brands are amortized over their expected useful lives. This caption also includes the net cost of acquiring software licenses developed outside the Group. Useful lives of finite brands, patents and licenses range from 3 to 26 years.
- _ 'Technology and content' relate to assets acquired through business combinations, separate acquisitions or internally generated software. These assets are the combination of software elements and travel content, the latter being obtained by Amadeus through its contractual relationships with travel providers. Useful lives ranges from 2 to 20 years.
The developments to provide customers with ongoing access to several services and certain customization of software controlled by the Group, and developed for some customers, are amortized over an estimated useful life of between 3 to 20 years, which usually coincides with the estimated term of the contracts.
The research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, amounted to €630.2 million (€570.4 million, 2023). The development costs that have been capitalized for the year ended December 31, 2024, amounted to €734.9 million (€577.5 million, 2023).
The Group receives tax incentives on research and development costs incurred mainly from the French Tax Authorities (Research Tax Credit). These incentives are, in substance, government grants and are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the relevant conditions, and the grant in the form of a reduced tax liability will be received. The total amount of government grants approved mainly by the French Tax Authorities was €31.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, (€32.3 million, 2023). The Group has elected to present the government grants related to capitalized development as a deduction in calculating the carrying amount of the intangible asset amounting to €22.8 million in 2024 (€23.4 million, 2023); and to present the government grant related to research expenses as a deduction under 'Other operating expenses' caption in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income amounting to €9.1 million in 2024 (€8.9 million, 2023). The associated cash flows are recognized as cash flows generated from operating activities for the incentives linked to research expenses, amounting to €12.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, (€16.8 million December 31, 2023), and as less payments for intangible assets within cash flow generated in investing activities for the ones related to capitalized development €27.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, (€42.3 million December 31, 2023).

_ 'Contractual relationships' mainly relate to those with travel agencies users and with travel providers acquired through business combinations that are amortized over a period between 8 and 21 years. The useful life of these intangible assets has been determined by taking into consideration the contractual legal rights, the renewal period and the technological lock-in period. It also includes non-refundable upfront payments made to travel agencies at inception or renewal of a contract, in exchange of their commitment to a minimum volume of bookings made through our GDS. These cash payments are instrumented through contracts with a term that is always over a year, and include shortfall clauses applicable if those objectives are not met. The cost is capitalized and amortized applying the straight-line method over a period of 2 to 15 years that corresponds with the contract term.
Amortization and impairment expenses related to intangible assets are included in 'Depreciation and amortization' caption of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
4.2.5 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment assets are recognized at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. They are depreciated by applying the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets:
| Useful life in years | |
|---|---|
| Buildings | 4 - 50 |
| Data processing hardware and software | 2 - 7 |
| Other property, plant and equipment | 2 - 20 |
Repairs and renewals are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Other operating expenses' caption when the expenditure is incurred.
The cost of software licenses acquired to be used by data processing hardware that needs the software to be capable of operating, are regarded as highly integrated with the data processing hardware and accounted for as a property, plant and equipment.
4.2.6 Leases
The Group recognizes a right of use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing the obligation to make payments during the lease term in all lease contracts.
As a practical expedient, the Group has elected, by certain classes of underlying asset, not to separate non-lease components from lease components, and instead account for each lease component and any associated non-lease components within the contract as a single lease component.
The right of use asset is initially recognized at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses; and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability resulting from a modification or reassessment of the lease. The right of use asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over the shortest of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset. If the Group obtains ownership of the underlying asset by the end of the lease term, depreciation will be based on the useful life of the asset.
The lease term of the different contracts includes the non-cancellable period of each of them, any rent-free periods provided by the lessor plus an estimation of a renewal period when the contract provides the Group with the unilateral option to extend the original term, and the Group is reasonably certain to exercise such option.
Leases acquired as a result of a business combination are measured as if the acquired lease was a new lease at the acquisition date. When assessing the term of the acquired lease the entity cannot be reasonably certain to exercise any option to extend at the acquisition date, especially when the Group has a right of use a similar underlying asset in the same location. A reassessment of the lease term is made whenever there is a significant decision on the integration of the acquired business that impacts the original judgment.
Lease payments are discounted at the incremental borrowing rate applicable to each different lease when the lease contract does not include an implicit interest rate. The nature of the underlying asset, lease term, and location are considered when estimating the incremental borrowing rates by individual entity.
4.2.7 Pension and other post-retirement obligations
The Group operates a number of defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans. Liabilities of the Group arising from defined benefit obligations are determined by applying the projected unit credit method. Independent actuarial valuations for defined benefit plans are performed annually for all the plans. The actuarial assumptions used to calculate the benefit obligations vary according to the economic conditions of the country in which the plan is located. Such plans are either externally funded, with the assets within the schemes held separately from those of the Group, or unfunded with the related liabilities recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position.
For the funded defined benefit plans, the deficit or excess of the fair value of plan assets over the present value of the defined benefit obligation is recognized as a liability or an asset in the consolidated statement of financial position. However, excess assets are recognized only to the extent that they represent a future economic benefit available to the Group, for example in the form of refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions.
Actuarial gains and losses arise mainly from changes in actuarial assumptions and differences between actuarial assumptions and what has actually occurred. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income, so that the net defined benefit plan asset or liability recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position is remeasured to reflect the full value of the plan deficit or surplus, and are not reclassified to profit or loss in subsequent periods.
The defined benefit plans actuarial cost charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Personnel and related expenses' caption, consists of service cost, and net interest on the defined benefit liability within 'Other financial expenses' caption is included.
Contributions made to defined contribution plans are charged to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Personnel and related expenses' caption as incurred. The same accounting policy is applied to defined benefit plans which are funded by multi-employer plans where sufficient information is not available to apply defined benefit plan accounting.

4.2.8 Revenue from contracts with customers
Significant services and methods of revenue recognition
_ Stand-ready series revenue recognition
Most of the Group's revenues are derived from a single performance obligation consisting of a stand-ready series of making technology services available for a customer to use as and when the customer decides. In these types of services contracts, the value that the customer receives for the performance completed to date coincides with the Group's right to consideration, and for that reason the Group has adopted the practical expedient that allows to recognize revenue in the amount to which the Group has a right to invoice.
The main services included under this category of revenues is provided through technology platforms and correspond to technology services related to Distribution and to IT solutions services. We provide both type of services to air and non-air customers, mainly hospitality customers.
Distribution services: the GDS provides comprehensive real-time search, pricing, booking and other processing solutions to travel providers and travel agency customers. The technological solutions provided by the GDS are the same every day for the entire duration of the contract. Each day of service is distinct from the previous day, but at the same time, the distinct services provided are substantially the same and are transferred to clients over time, complying with the definition of a series in IFRS 15. Consequently, the Group has identified as a single performance obligation with travel providers the stand ready series obligation to make its GDS Platform available for processing travel bookings and other related services that are closely related to the booking process. The platform is available every day to the customer and the usage determines both the variable price, based on bookings made, and the revenue. The value to the customer of Amadeus' performance completed to date coincides with the right to invoice to the customer, the determination of such amount depends on the terms and conditions agreed with each customer.
Revenues from GDS air customers are recorded at the time the reservation is made, that is when our right to invoice is created and what allows us to recognize revenue in accordance with the practical expedient of IFRS 15. Some bookings can be cancelled later, and according to the contracts in place, the booking fee earned should be reversed. To account for this variability in the transaction price revenue is recognized net of estimated future cancellations. The cancellation reserve is calculated monthly based on historical cancellation rate. The calculation is made by dividing the number of cancellations net of re-bookings (reserves made right after a cancellation) at the end of the month by the inventory of unused bookings at the beginning of the month.
Cancellation rate also impacts distribution fees and related commercial incentives ('distribution costs') payable to the third-party distributors (travel agencies, airlines direct sales and Amadeus Commercial Organizations –ACOs- which are not subsidiaries of the Group) that are also recorded net of the amounts relating to the cancellations.
GDS services are also provided to non-air customers mainly related to hotels and car rental companies. This type of distribution revenues is minor and is recognized when the reservation is used by the traveler, that is when our right to invoice is created and what allows us to recognize revenue in accordance with the practical expedient of IFRS 15.

IT solutions services: the revenue from IT solutions derive mainly from the Amadeus Passenger Service Systems (PSS) provided through Altéa suite and New Skies, and also from other hospitality products. The performance obligation identified is a stand ready obligation series to provide technology services through the Amadeus IT systems. This single performance obligation also meets the series definition as explained above (distinct services provided that are substantially the same and are transferred to clients over time). Usually, customers are charged a non-refundable upfront fee that is recognized as revenue over the contract term starting as of cutover date, and a variable fee based on a fee per transaction made (passengers boarded in PSS) that is recognized as revenue as the customer obtains value from the performance completed to date and that coincides with the right to invoice up to that date.
_ Other revenue recognition patterns
Other revenues are derived from licensing software, from providing related professional services and support and from subscriptions of several Amadeus IT offerings. These contracts usually include multiple performance obligations, and the transaction price is allocated based on the relative standalone selling price of each of the performance obligations identified. Licensing revenue is recognized over the contract term since the license provides customer with a right to access considering input methods based on time elapsed. Services revenue consists of installation and consulting services and is recognized as the services are performed considering input methods based on hours and costs incurred. Support and maintenance revenue consist of telephone support and maintenance and is recognized over the term of the agreement based on hours elapsed. Revenues from subscriptions are proportionally recognized over the subscription or the agreement term based on input methods.
Revenues from licensing software and subscriptions, as well as from the stand-ready series of making technology services available, are provided through platforms and software that can be hosted in our own data centers or in third party cloud infrastructures.
Contract liabilities
As disclosed above, the Group typically satisfies its performance obligations in line with the usage of the Amadeus platforms and technology solutions made by customers over the period, that coincides with the billing for the period.
Upfront fees that are recognized as revenues over the contract duration and any other amounts billed before the Group satisfies its performance obligation are recorded as contract liabilities.
Consideration payable to a customer
In the Distribution business, apart from contracts with travel providers previously explained, the Group enters into subscriber services agreements mainly with travel agents, which provide them with the tools and services that permit access to the Amadeus system. These subscriber agreements regulate both, the relationship with the travel agency as customer of the GDS, and the relationship with the travel agency as provider of promotion services of the GDS. Travel agencies are granted with incentives in exchange for making bookings with the Amadeus GDS instead of with other GDS providers. The fair value of the services received cannot be estimated reliably since prices of the subscription and the incentives are negotiated together in a single contract and on an individual basis by travel agency. Usually, incentives paid are higher than the subscription revenues received and therefore the distribution cost is recorded net of the subscription fees.

4.2.9 Employee share-based payments
The share-based payment obligations are equity settled. Compensation expense for services received and the corresponding increase in equity are recognized as they are rendered by the employee during the vesting period by reference to the grant date fair value (observable market rate) of the equity instruments granted to the employee. The compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year within 'Personnel and related expenses' caption. The settlement of equity settled share-based payments is accounted for as the repurchase of an equity instrument.
4.2.10 Financial instruments
Financial assets
The Group has elected to present fair value gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI), and there is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment.
Dividends from such investments are recognized in profit or loss within 'Other income/ (expense)' caption when the Group's right to receive payments is established.
_ Impairment
The Group applies an impairment model based on expected credit losses (ECL). A simplified approach has been elected and used for all trade receivables, as long as they do not contain a significant financing component. Under this simplified approach, credit impairment is recognized by reference to lifetime ECLs at each reporting date using a provision matrix that is based on the Group's historical credit loss experience.
As a definition of default, the Group establishes a time limit (overdue for more than 365 days) or a debtor's evidence off impairment such as: negative flows of operations, negative working capital, bankruptcy proceedings, high risk country, etc.
To estimate the ECLs of trade receivables, the Group segments its portfolio into the following categories:
- _ Trade receivables from 'no risk' customers, mainly refers to invoices settled by clearing houses (see section related to credit risk in note 5). For these amounts, it is assumed that there is no risk of default as the counterparty for the Group is the clearing house that guarantees the payment of its commitments via deposits required to all clients with debtor positions as per the clearing house policies and processes.
- _ Trade receivables from customers classified as 'high risk' for complying with the Group's definition of default or presenting evidence of impairment mentioned above. All of them are fully provisioned.
- _ Trade receivables from 'low risk' customers and not included in the previous categories.
'Low risk' customers outstanding balances are provisioned following a provision matrix which has been updated during 2024. The matrices for years 2024 and 2023 are the following:
| Percentage of provision 2024 |
Percentage of provision 2023 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Not due | 0.5% | 0.5% |
| Due up to 3 months | 2.5% | 2.5% |
| Due 3 to 6 months | 15.0% | 24.0% |
| Due 6 to 12 months | 50.0% | 50.0% |
| Due more than 12 months | 100.0% | 100.0% |
Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Generally, this happens five years after invoice has been issued, except if the amount is still under dispute or litigation.
Hedge accounting
The Group has elected to adopt the general hedge accounting model that requires to ensure that hedge accounting relationships are aligned with risk management objectives and strategy, and to apply a more qualitative and forward-looking approach to assessing hedge effectiveness. There might be instances when a derivative is not an effective hedge from an accounting perspective. In these situations, the derivative is classified as held for trading.
The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain currencies and interest rates. All these derivatives, whether designated as hedges or not, are measured at fair value, which is the market value for listed instruments or valuation based on option pricing models and discounted cash flow calculations for unlisted instruments. Net interests accrued for these derivatives which are either payable or receivable at the end of the reporting period, are reported according to their maturity under the current and non-current derivative financial assets captions if they are receivable, or under the current and non-current derivative financial liabilities captions if they are payable.
At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Group formally documents the hedge relationship to which the Group wishes to apply hedge accounting. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the fair value and cash flows, and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they are still expected to be an effectively offset of the fair value or cash flows being hedged.
Generally, the 'ideal hypothetical derivative' method is used to evaluate the expected effectiveness of a hedge relationship in which the hedging instrument is a derivative. This method compares the expected change in fair value of the actual derivative designated as the hedging instrument and the expected change in fair value of an ideal hypothetical derivative that would result in perfect hedge effectiveness for the designated hedged item.
In the case of the foreign exchange risk when non-derivative instruments or some types of derivatives are used as hedging instrument, as it is explained in the documentation of the hedge relationship, the dual spot method is used. This means that the Group compares the expected spotto-spot movement of the hedged item with the expected spot-to-spot movement of the hedging instrument to evaluate the expected hedge effectiveness of the hedge relationship.

The accounting treatment of gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of the derivatives is as follows:
_ Fair value hedges
Changes in the fair value of the hedge instrument and of the hedged asset or liability are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
_ Cash flow hedges
The portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives which are an effective hedge are accounted for, net of tax, directly through equity until the committed or forecasted transaction occurs, at which point these will be reclassified to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The portion considered ineffective is recognized directly in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Financial expense, net' caption.
For some foreign currency forwards, the Group separates the spot component of the forward contract and designates as the hedging instrument only the change in the value of the spot element of the forward contract. The spot component is determined with reference to the relevant spot market exchange rates. Regarding the hedge accounting of these forwards, the forward element is separately accumulated as a separate component of equity. In the case of the Group's hedging relationships, the forward element is recorded in equity, within 'Unrealized gains/losses reserve' caption, and is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period during which the hedged expected cash flows affect profit or loss.
The treatment for currency options is quite similar, the Group separates the intrinsic value and the time value of option contracts and designates as the hedging instrument only the change in intrinsic value of the option. The changes in the time value are separately accumulated as a separate component of equity and are reclassified to profit or loss in the same period during which the hedged expected cash flows affect profit or loss.
In some circumstances the Group also uses non-derivative financial liabilities denominated in foreign currency to hedge the cash flow currency risk of its forecasted transactions. The functional currency translation difference of these hedging instruments is recognized directly in equity up until the forecasted transaction occurs, at which point it is reclassified to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Ineffective gains or losses are recorded directly in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Financial expense, net' caption.
_ No hedge accounting relationship
Gains and losses on derivatives neither designated nor qualifying for hedge accounting treatment are accounted for directly in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income within 'Financial expense, net' caption.
5. FINANCIAL RISKS AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group, as a result of the normal course of its business activities, has exposure to foreign exchange, interest rate, treasury shares price evolution, credit and liquidity risk. The goal of the Group is to identify, measure and minimize these risks using the most effective and efficient methods to eliminate, mitigate, or compensate such exposures. With the purpose of managing these risks, in some occasions, the Group enters into hedging activities with derivatives and non-derivative instruments.

5.1 Foreign exchange risk
Due to the multinational orientation of its business, the Group is subject to foreign exchange risks derived from the fluctuations of various currencies.
Our revenue is almost entirely generated either in euro (EUR) or in US Dollar (USD) (the latter representing 40%-50% of our total revenue). Revenue generated in currencies other than the EUR or USD is much lower.
In turn, 50%-60% of our operating costs are denominated in many currencies different from the EUR, including the USD, which represents 30%-40% of our operating costs.
The Group's exchange rate hedging strategy aims to protect the EUR value of cash flows denominated in foreign currency. The instruments used to achieve this goal depend on the currency in which the cash flow to be hedged is denominated:
- _ The strategy to minimize USD exchange rate exposures is based on the use of natural hedges and derivative instruments. Neither as of December 31, 2024, nor as of December 31, 2023, there was significant USD denominated debt.
- _ Aside from the USD, the main foreign currency exposures are expenditures denominated in a variety of foreign currencies. The most significant of these exposures are denominated in Sterling Pounds (GBP), Indian Rupees (INR), Australian Dollars (AUD) and Singapore Dollars (SGD). For these exposures, a natural hedge strategy is not possible. In order to hedge a portion of the aforementioned short exposures, the Company may enter into derivative contracts with financial entities, basically non deliverable forwards, currency options and combinations of currency options.
The Group's total exposure to exchange rate changes is measured in terms of the Cash-flow at Risk (CFaR). This risk measure provides an estimate of the potential euro loss of the foreign currency denominated cash flows from the moment the estimation is calculated to the moment the cash flow is expected to take place. These estimates are made using a 95% confidence level.
The CFaR methodology is similar in many respects to the Value at Risk (VaR) methodology. However, whereas VaR is generally centered in the changes in the value of a portfolio of exposures in a generally short future interval of time, CFaR is focused on the changes in the value of the cash-flows of that portfolio, from the calculation date to the moment in which these cash-flows are expected to effectively take place. In the case of Amadeus, CFaR is a more adequate measure of the risk of the Group given that the goal of our risk management strategy with relation to foreign exchange risk is reducing the volatility of the euro value of the foreign currency denominated cash-flows. An additional reason for focusing on cash-flows is that they may eventually impact on the level of liquidity of a company, which in the case of a non-financial corporation, is generally a scarce and valuable element.
The main limitations of the CFaR methodology are very similar to the ones of the VaR methodology and are the following:
_ Results are based on several hypotheses on the future volatilities of the exchange rates and the future correlation among them, which may or may not correspond with the real evolution of the exchange rates1 .
1. The volatilities implicit in the market prices of currency options and the historic correlations among the main currencies in which Amadeus has exposures are used as inputs to the model.

- _ Foreign exchange exposure estimates used as inputs may deviate with respect to the exposures which will finally take place in the future2 .
- _ Given that CFaR is computed with a 95% confidence level, the losses which could take place in the remaining 5% of the cases may be significantly greater than the level of risk as measured with the CFaR methodology for a 95% confidence level.
The CFaR of the foreign exchange exposures of the Group calculated with a 95% confidence level is set forth in the table below:
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 CFaR | 2026 CFaR | 2027 CFaR | 2024 CFaR | 2025 CFaR | 2026 CFaR |
| (29.1) | (98.3) | (190.4) | (15.2) | (40.0) | (109.5) |
As of the end of 2024, CFaR levels calculated for the next three years are higher than in the calculation performed in the previous year. This higher level of CFaR is due to several factors such as (i) the larger size of the USD exposures estimated for the three coming years; (ii) the lower percentage of the foreign exchange exposures under hedge from 2025 to 2027 with respect to the hedge ratios of the previous year for the exposures from 2024 to 2026; and (iii) due to an increase in the level of EUR-USD market volatility used to make the calculations. This increase in the implicit market volatility is a likely consequence of the uncertainty existing at the end of 2024 about the forthcoming U.S.A. commercial policies.
As it can be observed in the table above, the level of risk measured in CFaR terms tends to increase for the periods which are further away. The reasons for this are: (i) the further away the future cashflows are, the more adverse the effect of foreign exchange fluctuations can potentially be; (ii) the level of hedging is smaller for the later periods; and (iii) in the later periods the size of the foreign exchange exposures tends to be greater as Amadeus business expands.
5.2 Interest rate risk
The objective of the Group, in terms of interest rate risk management, is reducing the volatility of the net interest flows payable. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 92% of the interest-bearing external debt contracted by the Group was fixed rate debt (95%, 2023). Given the high proportion of fixed rate debt as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, no interest rate hedges were hedging the outstanding debt as of these dates.
The sensitivity of fair value of Amadeus debt to a 0.1% (10 bps) parallel shift of the interest rate curve as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, is set forth in the table below:
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| +10 bps | -10 bps | +10 bps | -10 bps | |||
| Euro denominated debt | (6.4) | 6.4 | (7.1) | 7.2 | ||
| Total | (6.4) | 6.4 | (7.1) | 7.2 |
In 2024 there has been a reduction in the sensitivity of the value of the debt to the movements of the interest rate curve with respect to the previous year. This reduction has been caused by the smaller price sensitivity of the outstanding debt due to its shorter average life.
According to the table above a 10 bps drop in the level of interest rates would cause an increase in the fair value of the debt amounting to €6.4 million at December 31, 2024 (€7.2 million, 2023).
2. In order to calculate the foreign currency exposures, the Group takes into account the estimated cash flows in each currency according to the last available forecast and the foreign currency hedges contracted as of the CFaR calculation date.

5.3 Treasury shares price evolution risk
The Group has granted three different remuneration schemes outstanding which are settled with Amadeus shares; the 'Performance Share Plan' (PSP), the 'Restricted Share Plan' (RSP) and the 'Share Match Plan' (SMP).
According to the conditions of these plans, at their maturity, the beneficiaries will receive a number of shares, that for the plans granted, will depend on the achievement of certain conditions. The Group will use treasury shares to cover these remuneration schemes.
In the case of the outstanding plans, the number of shares to be delivered will range (depending on the evolution of certain conditions) between a maximum of 2,193,000 shares and a minimum of 974,000 shares, approximately.
During 2024 and 2023, the Group has acquired treasury shares through share buy-back programs (see note 16).
In April 2020, the Company issued a convertible bond with maturity in April 2025. The initial conversion price was €54.6, after adjusting for the dividends delivered. As of December 31, 2024, the conversion price was €52.9409. Given the outstanding share price of Amadeus, the whole convertible bond (€750 million) is expected to be converted in approximately 14,166,732 shares. As of December 31, 2024, Amadeus had bought in successive share buy backs 13,962,172 shares specifically to cover for the needs of this conversion process. During the first days of January 2025, Amadeus bought an additional amount of 205,328 shares under the share buyback plan announced in December 18, 2024, to cover for the needs of the conversion process (see note 24). This way, Amadeus has already bought in the market all the shares which investors could claim as part of the convertible bond conversion.
5.4 Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial asset will cause a loss for the Group by failing to discharge an obligation.
The Group cash and cash equivalents which also include money market funds are deposited in major banks on the basis of diversification and the credit risk of the available investment alternatives.
During 2024 and 2023, the Company has some low risk short-term financial investments in order to invest a portion of the liquidity of the Group amounting to €50.0 million as of December 31, 2024 (nil as of December 31, 2023) (see note 5.6).
The credit risk of the Group's customer trade receivables is mitigated by the fact that the majority are settled through the clearing houses operated by the International Air Transport Association ('IATA') and Airlines Clearing House, Inc. ('ACH'). These systems guarantee that the cash inflows from our customers will be settled at a certain fixed date, and partially mitigate the credit risk by the fact that the members of the clearing house are required to make deposits that would be used in the event of default. Moreover, our customer base is large and well diversified which results in a low concentration of the credit risk.
5.5 Liquidity risk
Corporate Treasury is responsible for providing the cash needed by all the companies of the Group. In order to perform this task more efficiently, Corporate Treasury accumulates the excess liquidity of the subsidiaries and channels it to the companies with cash needs.

This allocation of the cash position among the companies of the Group is mainly made through these agreements:
- _ Three different cash pooling agreements. One in EUR with most of the subsidiaries located in the euro area; another one in USD for the US subsidiaries and another one in GBP for the UK subsidiaries.
- _ Bilateral Treasury Optimization agreements between Amadeus IT Group, S.A. and its subsidiaries.
Corporate Treasury monitors the Group's cash position through rolling forecasts of expected cash flows. These forecasts are performed both through cash-flow models (top-down approach) and by the subsidiaries of the Group (bottom-up approach). Later on, the forecasts provided by the subsidiaries are consolidated in order to review both the liquidity situation and the prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Additionally, the Company has access to a Revolving Credit Facility. This facility has a notional of €1,000.0 million, and can be used to cover possible working capital needs and general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the facility was fully unused.
The detail of the contractual maturities of the Group's debt financing as of the end of the financial year 2024 and 2023 is described in note 17.
5.6 Capital management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while continuing to generate returns to shareholders, and to benefit other stakeholders through the optimization of the leverage ratio.
Outpayce, S.A. Sociedad Unipersonal, our e-Money subsidiary is subject to regulatory equity requirements specific to its sector and jurisdiction.
The Group bases its capital management decisions on the relationship between the earnings and free cash flows, and its debt amount and debt service payments.
The net financial debt as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, is set forth in the table below:
| December 31, 2024 |
December 31, 2023 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Total non-current debt | 2,571.8 | 2,739.7 |
| Total current debt | 803.9 | 568.8 |
| Total debt | 3,375.7 | 3,308.5 |
| (-) Short-term investments | (50.0) | – |
| (-) Cash and cash equivalents | (1,049.1) | (1,038.0) |
| Total net financial debt | 2,276.6 | 2,270.5 |
The rating agency Standard & Poor's has granted to the Group a 'BBB' long term credit rating with a stable outlook and a 'A-2' short term rating. The credit ratings granted to the Group by the agency Moody's are a 'Baa2', with stable outlook, for the long term rating and a 'P-2' for the short term rating.
The Group considers that the ratings awarded, would allow access to the markets, if necessary, on reasonable terms.
6. SEGMENT REPORTING
The segment information has been prepared in accordance with the 'management approach', which requires presentation of the segments on the basis of the internal reports about components of the entity which are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (CODM), in order to allocate resources to a segment and to assess its performance.
The reporting structure pivots on the type of customer and platform, distinguishing between travel and hospitality. The segment reporting is composed of three segments: Air Distribution, Air IT Solutions and Hospitality & Other Solutions, detailed below.
- _ Air Distribution, comprising travel customers where the primary offering is Amadeus GDS platform. It generates revenues mainly from booking fees that the Group charges to travel providers for bookings made, as well as other non–booking revenues but excluding hotel and car providers.
- _ Air IT Solutions, also focused on travel customers including results from both, Airline IT and Airport IT businesses. The Group offers a portfolio of technology solutions (primarily Altéa Passenger Service System -PSS- and New Skies) that automate mission-critical processes for travel providers. This segment generates revenues from the transactions processed in the Amadeus platform, as well as from other IT services.
- _ Hospitality & Other Solutions, mainly focused on hospitality customers including, both the distribution and IT solutions services, payments solutions, mobility, insurance and ferry, and travel advertising.
The Group applies the same accounting policies for the measurement of the profit or loss of its operating segments as those described in note 4. However, when evaluating the performance of each operating segment, management uses contribution as a performance measure. Contribution is defined at the relevant operating segment as revenue less operating costs plus capitalizations directly allocated to the relevant operating segment. The operating expenses (excluding capitalized expenses and those incentives associated to those capitalizations) of the Group are allocated either to operating direct costs or to indirect costs. The former are those that can be allocated to an operating segment and the latter to those that cannot be allocated to any of them.
Additionally, the Group manages its borrowing activities and taxes centrally and they are not followed up per segment.
Information regarding the Group's operating segments as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, are set forth in the table below:

The Group operates in the travel industry and, accordingly, events that significantly affect the industry could also affect the Group's operations and financial position.
Amadeus IT Group, S.A. is based in Spain and is the counterparty to all key contractual arrangements with airlines and other travel providers for Air Distribution and Air IT Solutions operating segments.
The table below shows the geographical distribution of the Group's revenue. For the distribution business, the revenue is based on the location of the travel agency where transactions are registered.

| Carrying amount at the end of the year | 4,090.6 | 3,710.8 |
Vision-Box and Voxel are included in the Air IT Solutions and the Hospitality & Other Solutions group of CGUs, respectively.
Exchange rate adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, mainly relates to the USD – EUR evolution.
Goodwill derived from any acquisition is allocated for impairment testing purposes to the group of CGUs that is expected to benefit from the acquisition that originated the goodwill, based on Amadeus' organizational structure and operations.
The breakdown of the current amount of goodwill per group of CGUs is set forth in the table below:

'Patents, trademarks, licenses and others' caption includes intangible assets with indefinite useful lives with a carrying value of €293.2 million as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, that mainly relate to the Amadeus brand. The Group considers that the Amadeus brand will contribute to the Group net cash inflows indefinitely. Among the different factors considered in reaching this conclusion, the following matters should be highlighted:
- _ There are no expectations of the Amadeus brand to be abandoned.
- _ There is certain stability within the industry since it is composed of few players worldwide and Amadeus has a strong positioning.
The Amadeus brand has been allocated to the group of CGUs of Air Distribution and of Air IT Solutions (€257.8 million and €35.4 million respectively), same amounts in 2023, based on the relative present value of the royalty savings in each of them. This brand does not generate cash inflows that are independent from other assets and is, therefore, tested for impairment at the level of the group of CGUs at which it can be allocated. The key assumptions used for the impairment tests as well as the methodology followed are disclosed below.
7.3 Impairment test
The Group monitors goodwill for internal management purposes at groups of CGUs, as this represents the lowest level at which synergies generated from business combinations are controlled internally. This monitoring is primarily linked to the type of platforms and technological services.
The Group has performed an impairment test of our groups of CGUs, as of September 30, 2024, applying a number of scenarios (a base case, an optimistic case and a pessimistic case), concluding that there was no evidence of impairment at any of our groups of CGUs, even under the pessimistic scenario.
The Group considered the latest information available to test for impairment. Management believes that as of December 31, 2024, there is no triggering event for impairment of the group of CGUs.
Calculations use cash flow projections based on financial budgets as discussed by the Board of Directors in October 2024 covering a 3-year period (2025-2027) plus additional forecasts developed for 2028 and 2029. Cash flows beyond that five-year period have been extrapolated using growth rates, that do not exceed the long-term average rates for the markets in which the three groups of CGUs operate.
These internal forecasts are derived from external assumptions, including the Gross Domestic Product figures published by the International Monetary Fund and air traffic data provided by IATA, among others. The Group leverages its historical evidence of the average contribution margins to estimate these internal forecasts.
The projections have been performed considering the following assumptions:
The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of forecasted revenues used for the impairment exercise for all group of CGUs, is set forth in the table below:
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025-2029 period | 2024-2028 period | ||
| Base case | 5.66% - 15.14% | 6.94% - 14.76% | |
| Optimistic case | 6.66% - 16.15% | 7.94% - 15.76% | |
| Pessimistic case | 4.66% - 14.64% | 5.94% - 14.26% |
Discount rates have also been reviewed to reflect the current economic situation.
The discount rates and perpetuity growth rates beyond the five-year forecasts applied to the cash flow projections in 2024 and 2023 for the different groups of CGUs are as follows:
| December 31, 2024 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Growth rate to perpetuity |
Post-tax discount rate |
Pre-tax discount rate |
||
| Air Distribution | 1.5% | 7.9% | 10.1% | |
| Air IT Solutions | 2.5% | 8.0% | 9.8% | |
| Hospitality & Other Solutions | 2.5% | 8.1% | 9.9% |
| December 31, 2023 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Growth rate to perpetuity |
Post-tax discount rate |
Pre-tax discount rate |
||
| Air Distribution | 1.5% | 7.8% | 10.0% | |
| Air IT Solutions | 2.5% | 8.0% | 9.8% | |
| Hospitality & Other Solutions | 2.5% | 8.3% | 10.2% |
According to this analysis of the value in use of assets assigned to the groups of CGUs, there is no evidence of impairment.
Management believes that any reasonable deterioration of the key assumptions considered which are the basis to calculate the value in use, would not result in the recoverable amount being lower than the respective unit's carrying amount for any of the groups of CGUs at which level goodwill is monitored.
In addition to the test for the groups of CGUs disclosed above, the Group has carried out specific impairment test for individual intangible assets. The Group has recognized the following impairment losses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income under Technology and Content caption:
| December 31, 2024 |
December 31, 2023 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Air Distribution | 19.2 | 18.6 |
| Air IT Solutions | 1.4 | 2.7 |
| Hospitality & other solutions | 13.2 | 17.9 |
| Corporate projects | 13.5 | 2.1 |
| Total | 47.3 | 41.3 |
The impairment losses in 2024 have been partly offset by €0.3 million (€1.5 million, 2023) due to the release of the contract liabilities related to these contracts.
8. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
The reconciliation of the carrying amounts for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, of the items included under caption 'Property, plant and equipment' is set forth in the table below:

11.1 Fair value measurements disclosures
The assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis in the consolidated statement of financial position are set forth in the table below. These fair value measurements are categorized into different levels of fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to valuation techniques used.
| December 31, 2024 |
December 31, 2023 |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Note | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |
| Other non-current financial assets | – | 13.1 | – | 11.9 | |
| Non-current derivative financial assets cash-flow hedge | 20 | 1.7 | – | 15.1 | – |
| Current derivative financial assets | 20 | 9.5 | – | 8.8 | – |
| Non-current derivative financial liabilities cash-flow hedge | 20 | 8.5 | – | – | – |
| Current derivative financial liabilities | 20 | 20.0 | – | 6.0 | – |
| Cash equivalents at fair value | 155.0 | – | 229.5 | – | |
| Contingent consideration at fair value | – | 32.0 | – | 13.0 |
The derivatives relate to foreign currency forwards and options.
The fair values of financial assets or liabilities traded on active liquid markets are measured according to the prices quoted in those markets. If the market for a financial asset is not active or no market price is available, fair values are determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing valuation techniques, which include discounted cash flows, standard valuation models based on market parameters, dealer quotes and use of comparable arm's length transactions.
The Group's foreign currency forward contracts are measured using quoted forward exchange rates. The financial assets or liabilities in our consolidated statement of financial position resulting from these derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value, would fall within the level 2 category of the fair value hierarchy. Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take into account the credit risk of the Group entity and counterparty when appropriate.
There were no transfers between levels of fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023.
The 'Contingent consideration at fair value' represents earn-outs agreed with the sellers of the businesses acquired by the Group. The fair value of the expected payment is determined using a probability weighted average of pay-outs associated with each possible scenario. This method requires considering the range of possible outcomes, the pay-out associated with each possible outcome and the probability of each outcome arising. Contingent consideration is measured at fair value at each reporting date and any reversal or additional expense is recorded in "Other income/ (expense)" caption. The split is as follows:
| December 31, 2024 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| USD | EUR | Current | Non-current | ||
| Kambr | 6.5 | 6.3 | – | 6.3 | |
| Voxel | – | 25.7 | 6.0 | 19.7 | |
| Total Earn-Out | 6.5 | 32.0 | 6.0 | 26.0 | |
| December 31, 2023 | |||||
| USD | EUR | Current | |||
| Non-current | |||||
| Optym's Sky business | 5.0 | 4.5 | – | 4.5 | |
| Kambr | 9.3 | 8.5 | – | 8.5 |
Optym's Sky business contingent consideration was based on the achievement of certain levels of qualified revenues during a specified period of time. As of December 31, 2024, the conditions have not been met, and a reversal of the liability has been recorded.
Kambr and Voxel earn-outs have different tranches that require reaching different levels of net total revenues for any consecutive twelve-month period up to June 2026, in the case of Kambr, and up to June 2028 for Voxel. As of December 31, 2024, a partial reversal of Kambr earn-out amounting to USD 2.8 million has been recorded.
'Other non-current financial assets' caption under level 3 comprises interests in certain unlisted noncontrolled companies.
The Group estimates that the carrying amount of its financial assets and liabilities is a reasonable approximation of their fair value as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, except for the following financial liabilities:

The nature of the benefits provided by the defined benefit plans in the Group varies from pension plans, long service and seniority awards, to gratuity plans, among others. These plans are structured and governed by local legislations (e.g. labor law). There are plans that do not report risks to the Group since are 100% covered by insurance policies, while in others the main risks associated with the plans are fluctuations in the financial and actuarial assumption, such as discount rate, inflation, salary increase, life expectancy, etc.
The principal actuarial assumptions applied in the preparation of the consolidated statement of financial position are set forth in the table below:
| Used to determine the defined benefit obligation at end of the year and profit and loss charge for new financial year: |
December 31, 2024 |
December 31, 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Discount rate | 4.69% | 4.52% |
| Underlying consumer price inflation | 2.23% | 2.23% |
| Rate of future compensation increases | 4.15% | 3.76% |

| Rate of future compensation increases | 3.76% | 4.10% |
| Rate of pension increases | 2.39% | 2.49% |

The above summary is a weighted average based on the defined benefit obligation of each country.
The sensitivity of the overall pension plan liability to changes in the weighted principal assumptions is:
| Millions of euros | December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Increase | Decrease | Increase | Decrease | ||

The historical cost for treasury shares retired (primarily for the settlement of the PSP, RSP and SMP, as detailed in note 19), is deducted from 'Additional paid-in capital' caption of the consolidated statement of financial position.
16.4 Dividends distribution
The Company's dividend policy goal is to pay-out up to a range of 40% to 50% of the consolidated net profit for the year (excluding extraordinary impacts). The amount of dividends the Company decides to pay, if any, and the future dividend policy will however depend on a few factors, such as market conditions and prospects, including financial conditions, as well as the evolution of the Company's operations, its cash requirements and debt service obligations, in which case the Company would undertake the appropriate communications to ensure that the change is made public.
On June 21, 2023, the General Shareholders' Meeting agreed to distribute a gross dividend of €0.74 per ordinary share with dividend rights at the date of payment resulting a total amount of €332.5 million, which was paid on July 13, 2023.
Additionally, on December 15, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors proposed a fixed dividend distribution of 2023 profit for the year of an equivalent 50% of the consolidated net profit, this way reaching the maximum percentage of the dividend distribution policy of the Company. Consequently, an interim dividend distribution was approved against the 2023 profit of the year, amounting to €0.44 per share with dividend rights, paid on January 18, 2024, for a total amount of €193.4 million.

The consolidated statement of changes in equity indicates an interim dividend payable of €193.9 million. This figure differs from the actual dividend distributed to shareholders due to the Company's repurchase of treasury shares between December 31, 2023, and the dividend payment date. These treasury shares are not eligible to receive dividends.
On June 6, 2024, the Ordinary General Shareholders Meeting agreed to distribute a final gross dividend of €1.24 per share, and therefore, considering the interim dividend a payment of €0.44 euros per share, a complementary dividend of €0.8 per share was approved and paid to the shares with right to dividend as of July 4, 2024, amounting to €348.5 million.
On December 18, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors proposed a fixed dividend distribution of 2024 profit for the year of an equivalent 50% of the consolidated net profit, this way reaching the maximum percentage of the dividend distribution policy of the Company. Consequently, an interim dividend distribution was approved from the 2024 profit of the year, amounting to €0.5 per share with dividend rights, paid on January 17, 2025, for a total amount of €221.0 million.
The consolidated statement of changes in equity indicates an interim dividend payable of €218.3 million. This figure differs from the actual dividend distributed to shareholders due to the Company's repurchase of treasury shares between December 31, 2024, and the dividend payment date. These treasury shares are not eligible to receive dividend.
The Company is able to distribute dividends whenever the amount of the reserves is greater than the net book value of the development costs registered in the statement of financial position.

The Performance Share Plan (PSP) consists of a contingent award of shares to certain of the Amadeus Group's management. The final delivery of the shares at the end of the vesting period depends on the achievement of predetermined performance objectives that relate to value creation in Amadeus as well as employee service requirements. The performance objectives relate to the relative shareholder return, the adjusted basic earnings per share (EPS) growth and to pre-tax adjusted free cash flow growth. The vesting period of each independent cycle is 3 years and no holding period applies, except in France.
The fair value of services received during the years ended as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, as consideration for the equity instruments granted, has impacted 'Personnel and related expenses' caption in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in an amount of €17.9 million (€8.0 million, 2023) and 'Additional paid-in capital'.
The fair value of the equity instruments granted has been determined using a Monte-Carlo valuation model for the tranche that involves market conditions, and a Black-Scholes method and an estimation of expected performance for the tranche that involves non-market conditions. The fair value of the equity instruments at grant date is adjusted to incorporate the market conditions to which the performance of the plan is linked.
For PSP there are two types of plans, PSP(I) and PSP(II). PSP(II) is for certain employees (mainly members of the executive committee) and, unlike PSP(I), is subject to a post-vesting holding period of two years. This restriction has been taken into account when determining the fair value of the instruments granted.
The detail of the shares allotted and fair value at grant date is set forth in the table below:
| PSP 2021 (I) |
PSP 2021 (II) |
PSP 2022 (I) |

19.2. Restricted Share Plan (RSP)
The Restricted Share Plan (RSP) consists on the delivery of a given number of shares of Amadeus shares to certain employees on a non-recurring basis, after predetermined services requirements are met.
The RSP beneficiaries must remain employed in a Group company during a determined period of time, which oscillates between 2 and 5 years.
The fair value of services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted (664,501 shares in 2024, and 573,555 shares, 2023), has impacted 'Personnel and related expenses' caption in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in an amount of €19.0 million (€14.5 million, 2023) and 'Additional paid-in capital'.

(1) The Group used treasury shares to settle these share-based payments (as detailed in note 16).
19.3. Share Match Plan (SMP)
The Share Match Plan (SMP) consists of a contingent award of Company's shares to employees that voluntarily decided to participate in the plan. The final delivery of the shares at the end of the vesting period depends on the achievement of predetermined vesting conditions, which are related to the purchase and holding of the shares, as well as the participant must remain employed in a Group company until the end of the cycle.
Under the terms of the SMP, Amadeus will grant the participants an additional share for every two purchased, if they hold the shares for a year after the purchase period has ended.
The fair value of services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted (309,698 shares in 2024, and 284,397 shares in 2023) has impacted 'Personnel and related expenses' caption in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in an amount of €9.0 million (€7.6 million, 2023) and 'Additional paid-in capital'.

20. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Group enters into derivative financial instruments to manage the financial risks to which it is exposed in the normal course of business. An outline of the Group's financial risks, the objectives and policies pursued in relation to those risks are described in notes 4 and 5.
As of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the fair values of assets and liabilities of derivative financial instruments are set forth in the table below (see note 11):
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||||||

There has been no significant ineffectiveness to be recorded from foreign currency hedges during 2024 and 2023.

Cash flow hedges of exchange rates
The Group is exposed to risks associated with fluctuations of exchange rates in currencies different than the euro. The Group uses currency derivatives, mainly currency forward contracts to hedge the exposure to foreign currencies, and a natural hedge of USD denominated net operating cash inflows with payments of principal on USD denominated debt, to hedge the exposure to USD. As of the date of issuance of the consolidated annual accounts, the Group does not hold significant USD denominated debt.
Regarding currency derivatives held, for the year ended December 31, 2024, a loss of €42.5 million (€32.5 million net of taxes) has been charged to other comprehensive income. A gain of €26.5 million (€20.0 million net of taxes) was charged to other comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2023.
21. TAXATION
The companies that make up the Group are all individually responsible for their own tax assessments in their countries of residence, without any worldwide Group tax consolidation.
The statute of limitations varies from one company to another, according to local tax laws in each case. Tax returns are not considered definitive until the statute of limitations expires, or they are accepted by the Tax Authorities. Independently that the fiscal legislation is open to different interpretations, it is estimated that any additional fiscal liability, as may arise from a possible tax audit, will not have a significant impact on the consolidated annual accounts taken as a whole.
The Directors of the Group consider that the mentioned taxes were properly settled, therefore, in the event of differences in the interpretation of the current tax regulations, regarding the fiscal treatment of the transactions, the potential resulting liabilities, should they materialize, will not significantly impact the accompanying consolidated annual accounts.
In June 2015, the Company received a final decision from the Central Administrative Court (TEAC) rejecting cumulatively appeals regarding to the tax assessment signed under protest relating to the Non-residents Income Tax for the year 2007. After a long procedural journey, the National Court, by resolution of October 2020, accepted the Company's claim partially, declared TEAC's resolution null and void and sent back the appeal to the TEAC. In April 2021 the TEAC issued a new ruling rejecting the Company's claims, so in July 2021 the Company filed a new lawsuit before the National Appellate Court, admitted for resolution in December 2021. In April 2022, the conclusions were presented to the National Appellate Court. As of December 31, 2024, the resolution is still pending.
The Company has voluntarily deposited the amount required by the Tax Authorities, until the resolution of this litigation and has registered the appropriate liability under 'Non-current income tax liabilities' caption in order to minimize its exposure in the event the final decision from the Court does not result in its favor. Therefore, and in any case, the resolution of this matter should not have any significant impact on the Company's financial situation.

The Company has been engaged in disputes with the Indian tax authorities since 1999. These disputes relate to an allegation that the distribution activities in India qualify as a permanent establishment, leading the Indian tax authorities to claim that a portion of the revenue generated from bookings made by travel agencies in India, should be subject to tax in India. In 2023, the Supreme Court ruled that no additional income is subject to tax in India under these circumstances. Consequently, the Company has released the amounts accrued subject to this uncertain tax position accounted for throughout these years. Additionally, and before the Supreme Court decision of 2023, following the order of the Delhi High Court of December 2021, Amadeus requested a refund of the amounts paid to the Indian tax authorities for the amounts withheld over several tax years. The Indian tax authorities initiated in 2023, and continued in 2024, the refund relating to certain periods, resulting in a partial reduction of the corresponding receivables as well as the generation of additional financial income, due to the delay interests. The collection of the amounts withheld in Indian Rupees has also generated exchange losses.
As of December 31, 2024, after the collection of the amounts withheld and exchange losses impacts, the remaining receivable from Indian Tax authorities amounts to €56.8 million (€84.1 million as at December 31, 2023), for which the timing of collection is uncertain and therefore is classified as noncurrent.
Additionally, since 2006, the Indian tax authorities are of the opinion that the IT service agreement executed between the Company and an airline (both non-resident) may give rise to royalty payments and fees for technical services in India. As a result of this interpretation, a new tax claim is under dispute. The dispute has been extended on a yearly basis not only to a specific airline but to the Altea System in general for its operation in India. In 2020, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) held that payments made by airlines to Amadeus in relation to the Altea system are linked to business profit. Accordingly, the said payments cannot be taxed as royalty under the Tax Treaty between Spain and India. It is the first time a tribunal has ruled the above. The resolution is not final and has been appealed by the Indian Tax Authorities to the Delhi High Court, although the ITAT criteria has been extended to other resolutions of different fiscal years on the same subject under dispute. The Delhi High Court, in several resolutions passed during 2023 with respect to the years 2006 to 2018, has dismissed the different appeals filed by the Indian Tax Authorities, although the latter could file an appeal before the Supreme Court. With respect to the years 2019 and 2020, they are at different procedural stage, with a positive judgment from the ITAT as regards 2019, which was appealed before the Delhi High Court by the Indian Tax Authorities. Although it is still pending of judgment, it should follow the same criteria as prior years.
Amadeus Hellas Electronic Travel Information Services Single Member Societe Anonyme (Amadeus Hellas) has been facing recurrent VAT tax audits. Specifically, the Greek tax authorities considered that Amadeus IT Group, S.A. had a permanent establishment for VAT purposes in Greece and, therefore, argued that the distribution fee invoiced by Amadeus Hellas to Amadeus IT Group, S.A. should be subject to Greek VAT as a local provision of services from Amadeus Hellas to the Greek permanent establishment of Amadeus IT Group, S.A. Amadeus Hellas has been appealing these assessments on a recurrent basis and by different means. Finally, after many years of litigation, in 2023, Amadeus has obtained a favorable judgment from the Greek Supreme Court for the period 2007-2009, which should be considered extensive for other period under assessment (2003-2006, 2010-2017, 2019). The judgment from the Greek Supreme Court was ratified by the Piraeus Court of Appeal, but the Greek state filed an appeal before the Supreme Court using a different argumentation for this purpose.

On the other hand, although closely related to the previously mentioned matter, in February 2024, the Court of Appeal ruled that Amadeus IT Group, S.A. has the right to receive a VAT refund for the years 2003-2013 through the procedure for non-established taxable persons. The Greek state has appealed this ruling to the Supreme Court.
Finally, in November 2024, Amadeus Hellas collected €9.5 million from the Greek Tax Authorities related to the period 2007-2009.
On the occasion of the tax audit initiated in 2018 with respect to the 2015 tax year, the Italian Tax Authorities have questioned the application of local VAT that travel agencies invoice to the local entity Amadeus Italia S.p.A. as incentives for making bookings through the Amadeus system, therefore questioning the deductibility of the aforementioned VAT paid by the local entity. The conclusion of the Italian Tax Authorities, by which they classify the incentives paid as "deliveries of money" or "gifts", is that such incentives are outside the scope of Italian VAT, so that the output VAT is undue and therefore the deductibility of the same by the local subsidiary Amadeus Italia S.p.A.
This pronouncement has been ratified by the Italian Courts of First and Second Instance, and surprisingly by a ruling of the Italian Supreme Court, notified in January 2025. In addition, for the proceedings initiated in respect of the 2016 financial year, the same Court of Second Instance has ruled in favour of the local entity Amadeus Italia S.p.A., pending an appeal, if any, by the Italian Tax Authorities.
Without prejudice to the measures that Amadeus adopts to minimize the effect of the Supreme Court's ruling with respect to the 2015 financial year for future years, and the procedural course arising from the favorable ruling of the Court of Second Instance for the 2016 financial year, the Company will continue defending its interests in the different appropriate procedural instances at local and European level. The consolidated annual accounts include the appropriate accruals to cover the impact.
In 2023, the Group updated its tax risk assessments (for direct and indirect taxes), as a result of changes in estimates of tax contingencies, fundamentally due to the positive resolution of proceedings with the Indian and Greek tax authorities. The update in these tax risk assessments impacted several captions in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in 2023, as described below:
- _ €42.0 million income, recognized as a reduction of 'Cost of revenue' caption .
- _ €38.2 million income, recognized within 'Income tax expense' caption.
- _ €27.7 million exchange losses, recognized within the 'Exchange gains / (loses)'.
- _ €21.1 million income, recognized within ' Other financial income / (expenses)' caption.
Also, linked to the resolution of the proceeding in India, Amadeus collected from the Indian tax authorities: (i) €42.8 million in 2023, which was recognized in the change in working capital (€38.8 million) and interest received (€4.0 million) captions of the consolidated statement of cash flows, and (ii) €44.9 million in 2024, which was recognized in the change in working capital (€37.5 million) and interest received (€7.4 million) captions of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
On January 18, 2024, the Spanish Constitutional Court has ruled that the Corporate Income Tax (CIT) measures established for large taxpayers approved by Royal Decree 3/2016, is unconstitutional and, therefore, null and void, because it violates the limits of the power to legislate through Royal Decree.
Only taxpayers who had challenged their previous CIT returns (2022 and before) would be entitled to make effective the effects of the ruling from the Constitutional Court, which is the Amadeus case, being entitled to claim a refund from the Tax Authorities.

The ruling affected Amadeus on the following topics:
- _ The restrictions on the use of net operating losses (NOLs) by large companies.
- _ The requirement to automatically include in the tax base the impairment of investments in Group companies that were previously deducted before 2013.
The application of this ruling in the annual accounts has mainly resulted as of December 31, 2024, in a reclassification of €36.4 million from deferred tax assets and liabilities to current income taxes in the balance sheet for the impact in the 2022 income tax return. As of December 31, 2024, the mentioned amount is still pending to be refunded by Spanish Tax Authorities The income tax calculation for the year 2023 also considered the effects of this ruling and has resulted in additional €71.2 million of NOLs application.
However, despite the recent ruling of the Spanish Constitutional Court, on December 21, 2024, Law 7/2024 of December 20, was published, establishing a Complementary Tax to guarantee a global minimum level of taxation for multinational groups and large national groups (hereinafter, "Law 7/2024") by which the tax provisions approved by RD 3/2016 and declared unconstitutional of RD 3/2016 were reinstated.
The application of Law 7/2024 has not impacted the application of NOLs. Nevertheless, the impairment of investments in Group companies that were previously tax deducted will be adjusted, in equal parts, during the next three fiscal years (2024, 2025, and 2026), for a total amount of €17.1 million.
Since January 1, 2024, the regulatory standard for the global minimum tax, also known as Pillar Two, is applicable for the Company. The Company will have to pay a complementary tax (top up tax) for each jurisdiction whose adjusted effective tax rate is below 15%, following the OECD model rules also included in Council Directive (EU) 2022/2523 of December 15, 2022.
Law 7/2024 incorporated the global minimum tax to the Spanish Tax System for 2024.
In this sense, taking into account the existing regulatory framework so far, the Company has carried out an analysis of both safe harbors and complex calculation of the global minimum tax, based on the accounting information for the 2024 financial year. Based on the best available estimate of results and subject to unforeseeable subsequent events, the application of the global minimum tax does not have a significant impact in the Company Income statement, following the application of the specific adjustments provided for in the Pillar Two regulatory legislation and the safe harbors' rules.

22.5 Sustainability matters
For the preparation of the consolidated annual accounts, the Group considers any financial implications of material sustainability matters as identified in our Non-Financial Information Statement and sustainability information. No responsibilities, expenses, assets, liabilities, or contingencies of an environmental nature have been identified that may significantly impact the Group's equity, financial position, or results.

While sustainability matters are increasingly relevant to our business and stakeholders, they do not have a significant direct impact on the accounting estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated annual accounts. Furthermore, it is concluded that there are no sustainability-related matters that may significantly affect the estimated residual value and expected useful lives of the Group's assets, and no impairment indicators have been identified that would require an impairment provision.
A sustainability-related risk refers to uncertain environmental, social, or governance events or conditions that, if they occur, could have a significant negative impact on Amadeus' business model or strategy. This, in turn, could affect the company's ability to achieve its goals and create value, potentially influencing its decisions and those of its business partners regarding sustainability matters.
The Group has conducted a screening process to identify assets and business activities that may be exposed to climate-related hazards (physical and transition risks). Based on the analysis performed, no material impacts on the fair value of assets and liabilities, and related income and expenses, have been identified.
While the newly released Non-Financial Information Statement and sustainability information, prepared in accordance with European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and included in the consolidated Directors' Report, outlines a variety of sustainability risks that the Group faces, these risks have not had a material impact on the company's financial position, performance, or cash flows. The Group maintains a robust risk management framework to identify, assess, and mitigate these risks, and will continue to monitor their potential financial implications.
The Group remains committed to ongoing monitoring of sustainability-related factors and will update its assessment as necessary to reflect any changes in circumstances.
23. CASH FLOWS
The Group classifies its short-term investments as cash equivalents when held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments. The investments are highly liquid, readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject only to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These shortterm investments generally consist of certificates of deposit, time deposits, commercial paper, shortterm government obligations and other money market instruments with maturity of three months or less. Such investments are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand are included under 'Cash and cash equivalents net' for the purposes of presenting the consolidated statement of cash flows.
In the event that 'Cash and cash equivalents' were restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period, these assets would be classified as non-current on the consolidated statement of financial position.

The reconciliation of 'Cash and cash equivalents net' caption of the consolidated statement of cash flows and 'Cash and cash equivalents' caption of the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, is set forth in the table below:
| December 31, 2024 |
December 31, 2023 |
|
|---|---|---|
| Cash on hand and balances with banks | 739.2 | 421.8 |
| Short-term investments | 309.9 | 616.2 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 1,049.1 | 1,038.0 |
| Bank overdrafts | (0.2) | (0.8) |
| Cash and cash equivalents net | 1,048.9 | 1,037.2 |
As of December 31, 2024, the Group has maintained short-term money market investments with an average yield rate of 3.98% for EUR and USD investments. As of December 31, 2023, the Group has maintained short-term money market investments with an average yield rate of 4.03% for euro investments. These investments are readily convertible to a certain amount of cash and do not have an appreciable risk of change in value.

Our positive evolution in 2024 was supported by strong performances of our reported segments. In 2024, Air Distribution revenue grew by 10.9% in the year. In the fourth quarter, we saw revenue growth accelerate from prior quarter, with Air Distribution revenue expanding 14.0% year-on-year. This acceleration was supported by both higher volume and revenue per booking growth rates. In the fourth quarter, bookings processed through the Amadeus Travel Platform experienced year-on-year growth of 9.0% and revenue per booking also advanced to 4.6% growth over prior year.
We continue to advance on our NDC strategy. More and more airlines are signing NDC distribution agreements with Amadeus to distribute their NDC content through the Amadeus Travel Platform including LATAM Airlines and Saudia in the fourth quarter.
At present, Amadeus has over 70 NDC agreements signed with airlines, of which 31 have been implemented to date. Also, a large part of our travel agency base has access to and can service NDC content of choice available through the Amadeus Travel Platform.

In 2024, Air IT Solutions revenue grew by 15.8%, driven by Airline IT passengers boarded, an expanding revenue per passenger boarded and our expansion in Airport IT. Our passengers boarded increased by 10.9%, driven by global air traffic growth and the positive impact from customer implementations over 2023/24. The customers migrated by Amadeus over 2023 and 2024 included Etihad Airways, ITA Airways, Hawaiian Airlines, Bamboo Airways and Allegiant Air in 2023, as well as, Vietnam Airlines, in 2024.
We were pleased to announce that Air France-KLM has contracted for Amadeus Nevio, our new Airline IT portfolio of modular solutions built on open technology and AI. With Amadeus Nevio, Amadeus is leading the way for the retailing transformation of the airline industry. Air France-KLM follows British Airways, Saudia and Finnair who have already contracted for Nevio.
In 2024, Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue increased by 12.3%, supported by double-digit growth rates over the period at both Hospitality and Payments. MGM Resorts International has completed the deployment of ACRS, our next-generation Central Reservation System for the hospitality industry. With its unique attribute-based data modeling, ACRS transforms the way hotels can provide personalized merchandising to their guests. The implementations of Marriott International and Accor, to join InterContinental Hotels Group and MGM Resorts International on Amadeus' Hospitality platform, are also advancing well. Amadeus is creating a global community of world leading hotels on a mission to transform relationships with guests.
We are pleased to announce a share repurchase program for a maximum investment amount of €1,300 million, to be executed over the next 12 months. This follows our previous share repurchase programs over 2023/24, to address the conversion of our €750 million convertible bond coming to term in April 2025. As Amadeus also raised capital through the issue of new shares in 2020, we now aim to repurchase and redeem a large part of the shares then issued.

Vision-Box's acquisition related costs, amounting to €6.3 million (before taxes) were recognized in 2024 (€2.2 million in the fourth quarter) within the Personnel and other operating expenses caption of the Income Statement.
Voxel
On February 29, 2024, Amadeus acquired Voxel Media, S.L. ("Voxel"), a leading provider of electronic invoicing and a B2B electronic payments specialist for travel sellers and the hospitality industry. The total amount paid in relation to this transaction was €106.1 million, which includes cash paid for the equity (net of Voxel's cash), amounting to €97.9 million, and liabilities assumed from Voxel, associated with the transaction, amounting to €8.2 million. The results of Voxel were consolidated into Amadeus' books from February 29, 2024. In 2024, the consolidation of Voxel contributed €16.7 million revenues to Amadeus.
Voxel's leading e-invoicing solutions automate hotels and travel sellers' processes, reducing personnel costs. Voxel's B2B electronic payment solutions facilitate travel sellers' payments to hotels, reducing fraud and errors and providing end-to-end payment status and traceability. Voxel is present in 100 countries and has more than 50,000 hotels and 1,000 tour operators and travel companies as customers. As part of this acquisition, over 200 Voxel employees transferred to Amadeus.
Voxel's acquisition related costs, amounting to €1.1 million (before taxes) were recognized in 2024 (€0.4 million in the fourth quarter) within the Personnel and other operating expenses caption of the Income Statement.
3.3 Non-recurring and M&A related effects
For purposes of comparing 2024 with 2023, figures shown in section 5 (Group income statement) have been adjusted to exclude the non-recurring and M&A related effects described below. A reconciliation of these figures to the financial statements is also provided below.

M&A acquisition related costs
As described above, in 2024, Vision-Box's and Voxel's acquisition related costs amounted to €7.4 million in aggregate (€5.9 million after tax). In the fourth quarter, they amounted to €2.6 million in aggregate (€2.2 million after tax). These costs were recognized within our Personnel and other operating expenses caption, negatively impacting EBITDA, Profit and Adjusted profit.
Updates in tax risk assessments
In 2023, Amadeus updated its tax risk assessments (for direct and indirect taxes), as a result of changes in estimates of tax contingencies, fundamentally due to the positive resolution of proceedings with the Indian and Greek tax authorities. The update in these tax risk assessments impacted several captions in the Group Income Statement in 2023, as described below:
- _ €42.0 million income, recognized as a reduction of the Cost of revenue caption in the fourth quarter.
- _ €38.2 million income, recognized within the Income taxes caption (€29.2 million in the second quarter and €9.0 million in the fourth quarter).
- _ €27.7 million exchange losses, recognized within the Net financial expense caption in the second quarter, linked to non-Euro denominated amounts, collected in Indian rupees.
- _ €21.1 million income, recognized in the Other financial results line within the Net financial expense caption in the second quarter, mainly caused by the recognition of interests on late payment.
As a result of these effects, EBITDA increased by €42.0 million and both Profit and Adjusted profit increased by €73.6 million in 2023 (in the fourth quarter, EBITDA increased by €42.0 million and both Profit and Adjusted profit increased by €51.0 million).
Also, linked to the resolution of the proceeding in India, Amadeus collected from the Indian tax authorities: (i) €42.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, which was recognized in the Change in working capital (€38.8 million) and Interests paid and received (€4.0 million) captions of the Cash flow statement, and (ii) €44.9 million in 2024 (€35.7 million in the fourth quarter), which was recognized in the Change in working capital (€37.5 million in 2024, €29.7 million in the fourth quarter) and Interests paid and received (€7.4 million in 2024, €6.0 million in the fourth quarter) captions of the Cash flow statement.
See note 21 of the 2024 Amadeus Consolidated Annual Accounts for further details.
Payment to a third-party distributor
In the fourth quarter for 2023, Amadeus agreed a non-recurring payment of €10.9 million to a thirdparty distributor, as part of a change in our distribution strategy in a local market. This amount was recognized in the Cost of revenue caption of the Income Statement in the fourth quarter of 2023, and, as a result, EBITDA decreased by €10.9 million and both Profit and Adjusted profit decreased by €8.2 million. The payment was executed in the fourth quarter of 2023.

4.Foreign exchange rate effects
Our reporting currency is the Euro. However, as a result of Amadeus' global activity and presence, part of Amadeus' results are generated in currencies different from the Euro. Similarly, part of Amadeus' cash inflows and outflows are denominated in non-Euro currencies. As a consequence, both results and our cash flows may be impacted, positively or negatively, by foreign exchange fluctuations.
Exposure to foreign currencies
Amadeus' Group revenue is almost entirely generated in either Euro or US Dollar (the latter representing 40%-50% of Group revenue). Revenue generated in currencies other than the Euro or US Dollar is negligible. By segment, 35%-45% of both Air Distribution and Air IT Solutions revenue, and 60%-70% of Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue, are generated in US Dollar.
In turn, 50%-60% of Amadeus' operating expenses6 are generated in many currencies different from the Euro, including the US Dollar, which represents 30%-40% of total operating expenses. The rest of the foreign currency operating expenses is denominated in a variety of currencies, GBP, AUD, INR and SGD being the most significant. A number of these currencies may fluctuate vs. the Euro similarly to the USD-Euro fluctuations, and the degree of this correlation may vary with time.
Hedging policy
Amadeus' target is to reduce the volatility generated by foreign exchange fluctuations on its non-Euro denominated net cash flows. Our hedging strategy is as follows:
- _ To manage our exposure to the USD, we have a natural hedge to our net operating cash flows generated in USD or USD-correlated currencies through, among others, payments of USDdenominated debt (when applicable), as well as investments and taxes paid in the U.S. We may enter into derivative arrangements when this natural hedge is not sufficient to cover our outstanding exposure.
- _ We also hedge a number of currencies, including the GBP, AUD, INR, TRY, COP and SEK, for which we may enter into foreign exchange derivatives with banks.
When the hedges in place covering operating flows qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS, profits and losses are recognized within EBITDA. Our hedging arrangements typically qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS.
In 2024, relative to 2023, foreign exchange fluctuations had a broadly neutral impact on revenue, costs and EBITDA. In the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, foreign exchange fluctuations had a positive impact on revenue and EBITDA, and a negative impact on costs (increasing costs).
6 Including Cost of revenue, Personnel expenses, Other operating expenses and depreciation and amortization expense.
5. Operating and financial performance by segment
For ease of comparison between 2024 and 2023, figures shown in section 5 (Operating and financial performance by segment) have been adjusted to exclude the following non-recurring and M&A acquisition related effects: in 2024, M&A acquisition related costs, amounting to €7.4 million (before tax), recognized within Net indirect costs, which resulted in a reduction of EBITDA; in 2023, (i) impacts from updates in tax risk assessments, which resulted in an increase in Air Distribution's contribution and EBITDA by €42.0 million, and (ii) a payment to a third-party distributor in the Air Distribution segment, which reduced the segment's contribution and EBITDA by €10.9 million. See section 3.3 for further details.

In 2024, Air Distribution revenue amounted to €2,945.7 million, 10.9% higher than in 2023. Our Air Distribution revenue evolution was driven by 4.7% higher booking volumes than in prior year, as described below, and a 6.0% increase in the Air Distribution revenue per booking. This increase in the revenue per booking primarily resulted from (i) positive pricing effects (including yearly adjustments, such as inflation, renewals and new distribution agreements), and (ii) positive booking mix effects, as compared to 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2024, Air Distribution revenue grew by 14.0%, as a result of a 9.0% booking volume growth and a 4.6% revenue per booking expansion, resulting from similar dynamics to the full year, described above. Our fourth quarter year-on-year revenue growth accelerated relative to prior quarter, fundamentally driven by Amadeus' bookings performance.

Many of our regions reported strong growth in the quarter, notably North America and Asia-Pacific, which grew by 10.3% and 22.5%, respectively, supported by global air traffic growth and Amadeus' commercial success. Our booking performance in the fourth quarter was also enhanced by prior year's booking cancellations spike in the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by the Middle East geopolitical events.
In 2024, Amadeus' bookings grew by 4.7% vs. 2023, supported by global air traffic growth and Amadeus' commercial success. Western Europe and North America were our largest regions, representing 27.2% and 25.2% of Amadeus' bookings, respectively, and Asia-Pacific was our best performing region, expanding by 23.3%. In North America, over the first nine months of 2024, our bookings growth was affected by direct connections between one very large online travel agency and a few larger carriers in North America, impacting our local bookings evolution in the region (although having a marginal revenue growth impact as it relates to low-fee local bookings).

In 2024, Air Distribution contribution increased by 12.5%, to €1,392.2 million, and represented 47.3% of Air Distribution revenue, an expansion of 0.7 p.p. vs. prior year. Contribution growth resulted from an increase in revenue of 10.9%, as explained in section 5.1.1, and a 9.6% growth in net operating costs. Growth in net operating costs in the year, relative to prior year, resulted from (i) variable cost growth, from volume growth and an increase in our average unitary distribution cost, impacted by customer and country mix, and (iii) increased R&D investment, mainly dedicated to our NDC technology and solutions for corporations, as well as, to customer implementations.

In 2024, Air IT Solutions revenue amounted to €2,204.7 million, 15.8% above prior year. This revenue performance was driven by (i) 10.9% higher airline passengers boarded volumes, as described below, and (ii) an increase in average revenue per PB of 4.4% vs. prior year. The increase in the revenue per PB mainly resulted from (i) a positive pricing impact from inflation and other pricing effects, as well as, from upselling of solutions (such as, Revenue Accounting, Revenue Management, Digital Commerce, Altéa NDC and solutions for disruption management, merchandizing and personalization), (ii) higher revenues from Airline Expert Services, and (iii) an expansion in Airport IT revenues, including revenues from the consolidation of Vision-Box from April 2024 (see section 3.2).
In the fourth quarter of 2024, Air IT Solutions revenue was 14.9% above the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by 8.0 %. higher PB volumes and a 6.4% increase in revenue per PB. Revenue per PB growth in the fourth quarter largely resulted from the same dynamics that drove revenue per PB growth in the full year, described above.

In 2024, Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue amounted to €991.3 million, 12.3% higher than in 2023. Both Hospitality, which generates the majority of the revenues in this segment, and Payments, grew at a double-digit rate vs. prior year. Within Hospitality, all main revenue captions (Hotel IT, Digital Media and Distribution and Business Intelligence) grew healthily in the year. In Hospitality, our fastest-growing businesses were our transactional businesses (ACRS, Digital Media and Distribution), driven by volume expansion, supported by customer implementations. In the fourth quarter of 2024, Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue was 10.8% above the same quarter of 2023. Hospitality reported healthy growth at all its main revenue captions. Payments revenue growth was strong, albeit softer than in prior quarter.
5.3.2 Hospitality & Other Solutions contribution
Hospitality & Other Solutions contribution expanded by 15.4%, to €341.8 million, in 2024, vs. 2023. As a percentage of revenue, contribution was 34.5%, expanding by 0.9 p.p. vs. 2023. Contribution growth resulted from a 12.3% higher revenue, as explained in section 5.3.1, and a 10.7% increase in our net operating costs. Growth in net operating costs in 2024, vs. 2023, resulted from (i) an increase in variable costs, mainly driven by higher Hospitality transactions, as well as, the expansion of our B2B Wallet solution, within our Payments business, (ii) the consolidation of Voxel (see section 3.2) and (iii) fixed cost growth, resulting from R&D investment, focused on the evolution of our Hospitality and Payments solutions portfolio and customer implementations, as well as, to support the expansion of both Hospitality and Payments.
5.4EBITDA
In 2024, EBITDA amounted to €2,335.1 million, a 13.2% increase vs. 2023. EBITDA growth was driven by an increase in the contributions of all of our segments, as described above, and an increase in net indirect costs of 15.3%. EBITDA margin was 38.0% in the period, 0.1 p.p. higher than last year.
Net indirect costs increase of 15.3% in 2024, vs. prior year, largely resulted from an increase in transaction processing and cloud migration costs, driven by our volume expansion and our progressive migration to the public cloud. To a lesser extent, net indirect cost growth was also impacted by increased resources in transversal functions to support the overall business expansion, coupled with a higher unit personnel cost, vs. prior year.

| Indirect costs (€millions) | Jan-Dec 20241 | Jan-Dec 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Indirect costs | (1,190.7) | (1,001.2) | 18.9% |

6.1.1 Revenue
In 2024, Group revenue amounted to €6,141.7 million, 12.9% higher than in 2023, resulting from:
- _ An increase of 10.9% in Air Distribution revenue, as detailed in section 5.1.1.
- _ Air IT Solutions revenue growth of 15.8%, as detailed in section 5.2.1.
- _ Hospitality & Other Solutions revenue growth of 12.3%, as detailed in section 5.3.1.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, Group revenue increased by 13.8%, relative to 2023's fourth quarter, resulting from the revenue expansion across our segments: 14.0% Air Distribution revenue growth, 14.9% Air IT Solutions revenue growth and 10.8% HOS revenue growth. 2024's fourth quarter revenues were positively impacted by foreign exchange effects, relative to the fourth quarter of 2023.

6.1.2 Cost of revenue
In 2024, cost of revenue amounted to €1,551.8 million, 13.8% ahead of 2023. Our cost of revenue growth resulted from the business expansion across our segments. In Air Distribution, variable costs increased, driven by volume growth and an increase in our average unitary distribution cost, impacted by customer and country mix. In Hospitality & Other Solutions, variable cost growth was mostly due to a higher number of transactions in Hospitality and Payments' B2B Wallet business expansion. Variable costs in Air IT Solutions also increased, driven by the expansion of our Airport IT business and the consolidation of Vision-Box. In the fourth quarter of 2024, cost of revenue increased by 18.6% vs. the same quarter of 2023, above 2024's third quarter growth, on the back of an acceleration in Air Distribution's bookings performance in the fourth quarter, relative to prior quarter's performance. In the fourth quarter, compared to the same quarter of 2023, foreign exchange effects increased cost of revenue growth.
6.1.3 Personnel and other operating expenses
In 2024, Amadeus' Personnel and other operating expenses cost line amounted to €2,254.8 million, 11.9% above 2023. For the fourth quarter, Personnel and other operating expenses increased by 11.7%. Growth, both in the fourth quarter and in the full year, relative to prior year, mainly resulted from (i) increased resources, particularly in the development activity, coupled with a higher unitary personnel cost, as a result of our global salary increase, (ii) higher transaction processing and cloud costs, driven by volume growth and the progressive migration of our solutions to the public cloud, and (iii) the M&A consolidation impact (see section 3.2).
6.1.4 Depreciation and amortization expense
In 2024, depreciation and amortization expense amounted to €700.2 million, 2.9% higher than in 2023. Ordinary D&A expense increased by 2.8% vs. prior year, driven by an increase in amortization expense from capitalized, internally developed assets. Depreciation expense declined vs. prior year, due to a reduction in depreciation expense at our data center in Erding, as a result of the migration of our systems to the cloud. In 2024, impairments amounted to €47.6 million, and mainly related to legacy applications impaired in the context of the migration of our systems to the public cloud, as well as, developments for rail customers. In the fourth quarter, depreciation and amortization expense decreased by 1.4%, compared to the same quarter of 2023, due to (i) a reduction in depreciation expense at our data center and lower impairment losses, (ii) partly offset by an increase in PPA amortization, driven by the PPA exercises of Vision-Box and Voxel carried out in the fourth quarter of 2024.

6.1.5 EBITDA and Operating income
In 2024, EBITDA amounted to €2,335.1 million, 13.2% higher than prior year, driven by (i) a 12.9% higher revenue, as described in section 6.1.1, (ii) 13.8% cost of revenue growth, as described in section 6.1.2, and (iii) an increase in our Personnel and other operating expenses cost line of 11.9%, as described in section 6.1.3. In the year, Operating income amounted to €1,634.9 million, 18.2% higher than in 2023. This increase resulted from EBITDA growth and a 2.9% higher D&A expense (as described in section 6.1.4). In 2024, the EBITDA margin expanded by 0.1 p.p. to 38.0%, and the Operating income margin also increased, by 1.2 p.p., to 26.6%. In the fourth quarter of 2024, EBITDA grew by 12.7% (0.3 p.p. EBITDA margin contraction) and Operating income increased by 24.2% (1.7 p.p. Operating income margin expansion).

See section 3.3 for further details.
6.1.6 Net financial expense
In 2024, net financial expense amounted to €89.1 million, €37.2 million higher than in 2023. This increase was mostly driven by (i) an increase in interest expense of €16.6 million, or 19.8%, as a consequence of a higher average cost of debt over the period, coupled with a similar average gross debt, and (ii) non-operating exchange losses of €9.3 million (vs. €8.4 million exchange gains in 2023). In the fourth quarter of 2024, net financial expense amounted to €19.2 million, €5.2 million, or 37.4%, higher than in the same quarter of 2023, mainly resulting from non-operating exchange losses of €7.4 million (vs. €4.5 million exchange gains in the fourth quarter of 2023), partly offset by an increase in net income from Other financial results of €8.1 million vs. prior year. Interest expense was 6.6% above prior year in the fourth quarter, a deceleration vs. growth reported in previous quarters, mainly due to a moderation in the cost of debt increase vs. prior year.

1 Excluding impacts from updates in tax risk assessments, which increased Net financial expense by €6.6 million. See section 3.3 for further details.
6.1.7 Income taxes
In 2024, income taxes amounted to €297.0 million, an increase of 4.6% vs. 2023, resulting from higher taxable results, coupled with a reduction in the income tax rate, vs. 2023. In 2024, the income tax rate was 19.1%. The income tax rate in 2024 was impacted by positive effects coming from previous years. Excluding these effects, the income tax rate in 2024 was 20.8%, 0.4 p.p. lower than the 21.2% income tax rate reported in 20239 . This reduction was mainly driven by country mix.
6.1.8 Profit and Adjusted profit
In 2024, Profit amounted to €1,258.6 million, 19.6% higher than in 2023. In turn, Adjusted profit amounted to €1,347.9 million, 19.9% higher than Adjusted profit reported in 2023.

6.3.2 Capital expenditure. R&D investment
Capital expenditure
The table below details the capital expenditure, both in relation to property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") and to intangible assets. Based on the nature of our investments in PP&E, the figures may show variations on a quarterly basis, depending on the timing of certain investments. In turn, our capitalized R&D investment may fluctuate depending on the level of the capitalization ratio, which is impacted by the intensity of the development activity, the mix of projects under way and the different stages of the various projects.

In 2024, capital expenditure increased by €172.8 million, or 28.9%, compared to 2023, largely driven by higher capitalizations from software development. In 2024, capital expenditure represented 12.5% of Revenue.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, capital expenditure was €40.3 million, or 19.8%, higher than capital expenditure in the third quarter of 2024, resulting from (i) an increase in capital expenditure on intangible assets of €17.2 million, or 9.0%, mainly driven by an acceleration in R&D investment, coupled with a higher capitalization ratio, and (ii) an increase of €23.1 million in capital expenditure in PP&E, largely related to office refurbishments and acquisitions of hardware and software for employees. Relative to prior year, capital expenditure increased by 77.4% in the fourth quarter of 2024. Growth vs. prior year was impacted by collections of research tax credits in the fourth quarter of 2023, which reduced capital expenditure in intangible assets in that quarter by €42.7 million.

8.4 Other financial risks
8.4.1 Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial asset will cause a loss for the Group by failing to discharge an obligation.
The Group cash and cash equivalents which also include money market funds are deposited in major banks on the basis of diversification and the credit risk of the available investment alternatives.
The credit risk of the Group's customer trade receivables is mitigated by the fact that the majority are settled through the clearing houses operated by the International Air Transport Association ('IATA') and Airlines Clearing House, Inc. ('ACH'). These systems guarantee that the cash inflows from our customers will be settled at a certain fixed date, and partially mitigate the credit risk by the fact that the members of the clearing house are required to make deposits that would be used in the event of default. Moreover, our customer base is large and well diversified which results in a low concentration of the credit risk.
8.4.2 Liquidity risk
Corporate Treasury is responsible for providing the cash needed by all the companies of the Group. In order to perform this task more efficiently, Corporate Treasury accumulates the excess liquidity of the subsidiaries and channels it to the companies with cash needs.
This allocation of the cash position among the companies of the Group is mainly made through these agreements:
