Auckland Airport: "In consideration of our strong growth and performance in the first six months of this financial year, Auckland Airport is now lifting and tightening its guidance for the full year to be between NZD200 million and NZD206 million. This updated guidance would deliver an increase in underlying earnings per share of between 13.4% and 16.8%. It is subject to any material adverse events, significant one-off expenses, non-cash fair value changes to property, and deterioration as a result of global market conditions or other unforeseeable circumstances," Henry van der Heyden, Chairman.
