Turnover<br />

Slight decline in Airport and Handling, share of Non-Aviation increases<br />

___The <strong>Flughafen</strong> <strong>Wien</strong> Group recorded a decline of 2.2% in turnover to € 320.1 million for<br />

the reporting year. Despite a decrease of 0.9%, the airport business unit remained the largest<br />

segment with revenue of € 136.2 million or 42.5% of total Group turnover. The decline in airport<br />

revenue was primarily a result of traffic development: -0.7% in passenger volume, -0.6%<br />

in flight movements, and -4.3% in maximum take-off weight. In addition, the reduction in<br />

tariffs as of 1 November <strong>2001</strong> had an added impact of € 0.8 million. We have introduced<br />

substantially lower tariffs for aircraft with over 125 tonnes in order to create an additional<br />

incentive for airlines to include Vienna in their long-distance schedules. Turnover in the aviation<br />

segment is primarily a function of the various airport tariffs (landing, passenger, and<br />

infrastructure).<br />

___The handling segment, which generated 34.7% of Group turnover in <strong>2001</strong>, recorded a<br />

decline of 5.9% in revenues to € 111.0 million. This situation resulted primarily from lower<br />

flight movements and cargo volume, a decrease in maximum take-off weight, and full business<br />

operations by the second ground handling agent.<br />

___The non-aviation segment recorded an increase of 1.3% in turnover to € 72.7 million, with<br />

the share of Group sales rising from 21.9% to 22.7%. This result was supported by higher<br />

income from rental, shops and gastronomy as well as telecommunications services. Turnover<br />

from security services declined because revenues generated after 11 September were unable<br />

to offset lower income from other areas.<br />

___Turnover not allocated to the business segments totalled € 0.3 million, and includes income<br />

from central staff functions such as consulting services for third party customers, film<br />

shooting and visitor services.<br />

___The importance of tourism as a revenue driver subjects turnover in the airport and handling<br />

segments to normal travel industry fluctuation during the year. These two segments<br />

recorded the highest turnover during the third quarter of the year.<br />
