Fraport: "In contrast to previous expectations, expenses for security services in the Aviation segment will not continue to rise. However, segment EBITDA is still expected to be considerably lower than the previous year's level due to declining traffic. In the Ground Handling segment, falling traffic numbers should also lead to lower personnel expenses. However, segment EBITDA is still expected to be considerably lower than the previous year's level due to negative revenue development," Company statement. Source: Fraport, 06-Aug-2009.
