TAV Airports: 2016 Guidance Revised
27-Jul-2016
In our material event disclosure on February 12, 2016 we had disclosed our financial and operational expectations for 2016, under normal conditions. Because of security related incidents we have experienced both in Turkey and globally since then, passenger numbers and passenger mix is affected and hence guidance is revised. Due to this, while Istanbul international passengers was flat in the first half of 2016, Origin and Destination (O&D) passengers decreased 14%. In 2016, we expect: • 20 percent decrease in Istanbul Ataturk Origin & Destination (O&D) Passengers • Stable revenue • 8-10 percent decrease in EBITDAR • Significant decrease in Net Profit All measures are taken to limit the decline in operational metrics and strict cost control measures are being implemented in response to the new situation.
