Augustin de Romanet, Chairman and CEO of Groupe ADP, commented:"Groupe ADP recorded a clear improvement in its performance in the 1st half of 2022 and returned to a positive net result, at €160 million. The Group's revenue doubled compared to the 1st half of 2021, driven in particular by the rebound in traffic at Paris Aéroport, which reached 71.6% of the level for the same period in 2019. This recovery momentum in Paris is particularly strong and is close to the one recorded in our international airports. The EBITDA margin reached 35% of revenue, or 702 million euros. This performance has led us to raise the target range for EBITDA margin by 2 points to 32% to 37% of revenue in 2022. The debt ratio is now expected to be between 5.5 and 6.5 times the EBITDA for the year 2022.

We are proud that the Groupe ADP's commitment to quality of service and hospitality has been recognized in the latest Skytrax rankings. In Paris, the successful combination of our retail and airport hospitality expertise is also reflected in a sales per passenger of €25.4. In a particularly demanding context, Groupe ADP teams, whom I would like to thank for their commitment, are fully mobilized to welcome passengers and serve the interests of all our stakeholders."

The financial statements for the first half of 2022 were approved by the Board of Directors of Aéroports de Paris at its meeting of July 28, 2022. They have been subject to a limited review by the statutory auditors, and the limited review report is currently being issued.

Comments on latest events

Evolution of traffic

Groupe ADP3 total traffic is up by +134.4% compared to the fisrt half of 2021, to 118.2 million passengers, standing at 71.9% of the group traffic over the same period in 2019.

Traffic in Paris Aéroport is up by +249.2% compared to the 1st half of 2021, to 37.5 million passengers, at 71.6% of the traffic over the same period in 2019. Moreover, aircraft movements at Paris Aéroport are up by +122.7% compared to the first half of 2021.

During the last few days of June and the first few days of July, occasional industrial actions at the Paris hubs led to flight cancellations, mainly affecting domestic and short-haul flights. The impact of these cancellations on passenger traffic remained limited.

In the context created by Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the international sanctions imposed on Russia, the group is monitoring the situation to assess its short, medium and long-term consequences. In 2019, traffic with Ukraine and Russia amounted to 1.4% of Paris Aéroport's total traffic, as well as to 17.1%4 of TAV Airports' total traffic, at 27.9%2 of TAV Airports' international traffic.

In the first half of 2022, traffic at TAV Airports' Turkish airports is up +100.8% compared to 2021, representing 70.8% of 2019 traffic levels. Although traffic with Russia and Ukraine account for 36.3% and 5.6% of their respective 2019 levels, totaling 1.5 million passengers, the recovery at TAV Airports' Turkish airports is supported by other routes, notably traffic with the United Kingdom and Germany, which stand at 141.5% and 106.2% of their 2019 levels, totaling 4.4 million passengers.

In addition, at Almaty, in Kazakhstan, traffic is up +11.8% compared to the 1st half of the year, at 3.1 million passengers, or 109.4% of the traffic level in the same period in 2019. The recovery is also supported by the doubling of the number of cargo flights served, resulting from the Russian airspace overflight ban.

Based on the traffic recorded in the 1st half of the year, and as announced in the press release of July 18, 2022, the group has revised its traffic assumptions for 2022 as follows:

  • Groupe ADP: traffic between 74 and 84% of 2019 levels (compared to 70 to 80% of 2019 previously)
  • Paris Aéroport: traffic between 72 and 82% of 2019 levels (compared to 65 to 75% of 2019 previously)

Evolution of commercial activities

As announced on February 16, 2022, the Group's new commercial strategy initiated with the 2025 Pioneers plan and the launch of the Extime brand have led to a change in the definition of the "Extime Paris Sales/PAX" operating indicator from 2022 onwards. Prior to this date, the definition was: revenue from airside shops divided by the number of departing passengers (sales/Pax) in Paris.

The Extime Paris sales/pax ratio now includes all activities in the airside area: Stores, bars & restaurants, currency exchange & tax-free offices, commercial lounges, VIP reception, advertising and other paid services in the restricted area.

Over the first half of 2022, Extime Paris sales/pax was €25.4, compared with €27.0 in the same period of 2021, a decrease of 5.9% reflecting the normalization of this ratio resulting from the recovery in traffic. Compared to the first half of 2019, Extime Paris sales/pax is up by 2.9 euros, or +12.9%, confirming the Group's belief in the effectiveness of its retail model.

Following a public consultation, Groupe ADP announced on July 8, 2022 that it had chosen Lagardère Travel Retail to become the future co-shareholder of Extime Duty Free Paris, which will operate the Duty Free & Retail activities for Paris Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly airports.

Extime Duty Free Paris will operate nearly 140 beauty, gastronomy, technical products and fashion outlets. It will be owned at 51% by Groupe ADP and at 49% by Lagardère Travel Retail, subject to the approval of the relevant competition authorities.

In addition, following a public consultation, Groupe ADP announced on July 28, 2022 that it had selected JC Decaux to become a co-partner in Extime Media, which will operate, as of January 1, 2023, the advertising activities at Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget airports, as well as, in a second phase, at the airports of Antalya and Milas-Bodrum in Turkey.

Subject, where required, to the approval of the relevant competition authorities, Extime Media will be owned equally by Groupe ADP and JC Decaux.

Signing of a profit-sharing agreement for the employees of Aéroports de Paris SA

Signed on June 13, 2022 by the unanimous agreement of the representative trade unions, the profit-sharing agreement set up by the group for the employees of ADP SA covers a three-year period from 2022 to 2024. The payment of the profit-sharing bonus is conditional on the achievement of five objectives linked to the Pioneers 2025 strategic plan and is paid out in the year following the end of the financial year concerned.

As part of the 2025 Pioneers for Trust ESG strategy, this agreement marks Groupe ADP's desire to involve employees in achieving the company's strategic and transformation objectives and to benefit directly from the results obtained.

The objectives relate to improving economic performance (EBITDA/Group revenue ratio), quality of service (departing passenger satisfaction rating) and corporate social responsibility (number of days of civic engagement carried out by employees during their working hours, reduction of CO2 emissions, rate of completion of ethics and compliance training by employees). This collective performance incentive agreement is unprecedented, at ADP SA in the importance it gives to ESG criteria.

Two salary increase agreements signed for the employees of Aéroports de Paris SA

Following negotiations with the representative trade unions initiated on June 14, 2022, the Group announced to ADP SA employees on July 8, 2022 the signature of two agreements relating to immediate salary increases, effective as of July 1. These agreements provide for a return to the 2019 salary level for employees affected by the Employment Contract Adjustment Plan (PACT) and an additional general increase of 3% for all ADP SA employees.

The impact of these measures in the second half of 2022 is estimated at 13 million euros.

Groupe ADP's commitment in the scientific validation process of its greenhouse gas emission reduction objectives

Since June 23, 2022, Groupe ADP has formally committed in the process of defining and validating its greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets (scopes 1, 2 and 3) through the SBTi (Science Based Target initiative), a joint program of the CDP (Carbon Disclosure Project), the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the WWF

Cash and investments

As of June 30, 2022, the Groupe ADP had cash position of 1.8 billion euros. In the first half of 2022, cash and cash equivalents decreased by 532 million euros, mainly due to the repayment of a 400 million euros bond in February 2022 and the capital injection by TAV Airports into the new Antalya concession, in which it is a shareholder alongside Fraport, for 375 million euros.

In view of this available cash and its forecasts for the next 12 months, the group has liquidity that it considers satisfactory in the current exceptional sanitary and economic context and to meet its current needs and financial commitments.

Given the confidence of investors in the solidity of its financial model and with its long-term credit rating (A negative outlook by Standard and Poor's since March 25, 2020, confirmed on December 17, 2021), the Groupe ADP is taking care to ensure that, in the event of a significant deterioration in the economic and health context, it would be able to meet its commitments and have recourse to additional financing.

Over the 1st half of 2022, revenue from the International and airport developments segment stood at 538 million euros, up by +143,5% compared to the 1st half of 2021, mainly due to the increase in revenue for TAV Airports and AIG.

TAV Airports' revenue was up by +166.4%, at 410 million euros, Since May 1, 2021, it has included the revenues of Almaty airport in Kazakhstan. Excluding the integration of Almaty, TAV Airports' revenues would have increased by 99.5% to 268 million euros due to:

  • the effect of increased traffic on the revenues of the assets managed by TAV Airports, notably in Georgia, for +21 million euros, Izmir for +16 million euros, and North Macedonia at +7 million euros;
    • the increases of revenue of TAV Airports' service companies, notably Havas (company specialized in ground handling), for +28 million euros, due to the increase in the number of flights served, the revenue of BTA (company specialized in bars and restaurants), for +21 million euros, due to the increase in attendance and the revenue of TAV OS (company specialized in airport lounge management) for +15 million euros.

EBITDA of the International and airport developments segment was up by +143 million euros, to 163 million euros.

TAV Airports' EBITDA was up by +107 million euros compared to the 1st half of 2021, to 127 million euros, linked to the increase in revenue, despite the increase in operating expenses of +150 million euros. Excluding the integration of Almaty, TAV Airports' EBITDA would be up by +69 million euros to 84 million euros.

AIG's EBITDA was up by up by +22 million euros compared to the 1st half of 2021, at 31 million euros, linked to the increase in revenue, despite the increase in operating expenses of +36 million euros, linked in particular to the increase in concession rent for +31 million euros concomitant with the recovery in traffic.

Operating income from ordinary activities of the segment stood at 90 million euros, up by +180 million euros, due to:

  • the increase of EBITDA for +143 million euros;
  • the +58 million euros rise of the share of profit from operating associates, to -6 million euros over the 1st half of 2022, as a result of the increase of results of companies accounted for by the equity method:
    • TAV Airports for +34 million euros, to 5 million euros, due mainly to the reclassification of Tibah Development, the company operating the Medina airport, whose results are recorded in the financial result, as well as an increase in the results of TGS, ground handling company;
    • ADP International for +9 million euros to 8 million euros due to the sale of shares in ATOL, the company operating the Mauritius airport, on January 28, 2022 for 6 million euros;
    • Offsetting the decrease in result from GMR Airport for -3 million euros to -19 million euros.

Hyperinflation in Turkey: In the context of very high inflation in Turkey, group entities whose functional currency is the Turkish lira are obliged to apply the provisions of IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" from February 2022 onwards, requiring the restatement of the financial statements to take account of changes in the general purchasing power of this currency.

Traffic assumptions, forecasts and targets 2022-2025

Traffic assumptions, forecasts and targets 2022-2025

These forecasts are based on the assumption of no new restrictions or airport closures due to the health crisis, of a stable business model in Paris, and of no abnormally high volatility in exchange rates and inflation rates. Any negative change in relation to these assumptions could have an adverse effect on traffic volumes and the 2025 financial indicators. They are also based on the consolidation scope at the end of 2021, with no assumption of developments up to 2025.

Based on the traffic recorded in the 1st half of the year, and as announced in the press release of July 18, 2022, the group has revised its assumptions for 2022 as follows

  • Groupe ADP: traffic between 74% and 84% of 2019 levels (compared to 70-80% of 2019 previously)
  • Paris Aéroport: traffic between 72% and 82% of 2019 levels (compared to 65 - 75% of 2019 previously)

Accordingly, and in light of the results recorded in the 1st half of 2022:

  • The group has raised the target EBITDA margin range for 2022 and 2023 by 2 points, i.e. 32% to 37% of revenue;
  • The debt ratio is now expected to be between 5.5 and 6.5 times EBITDA for the year 2022 (compared to 6 to 7 times the EBITDA previously).
