MAp: "Sydney Airport delivered a solid performance for the first quarter of 2011 with EBITDA growth of 3.4%, outperforming traffic growth of 1.5%. This was despite a number of disruptions in the first quarter, with severe weather in Queensland and earthquakes in New Zealand and Japan having a significant impact on traffic growth and financial performance. The late timing of Easter in 2011 also weighed on performance in the first quarter," Kerri Mather, CEO. Source: MAp, 20-Apr-2011.
