Annual Report 2009<br />
In 2009 at <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong> y <strong>Navegación</strong><br />
<strong>Aérea</strong> (<strong>Aena</strong>) the strategic priority was to contend<br />
with the fi nancial crisis by maintaining the high<strong>es</strong>t<br />
levels of safety and quality, reducing costs and being<br />
more competitive, and to do all this in a sustainable<br />
manner in order to make the development of air<br />
transport compatible with environmental protection.<br />
Therefore, since last year we have been<br />
implementing a policy of cost reduction and<br />
productivity improvement conceived to permit us to<br />
ensure <strong>Aena</strong>’s economic-fi nancial viability without<br />
constituting en economic burden on the State or<br />
the tax-payer. Some of th<strong>es</strong>e measur<strong>es</strong>, <strong>es</strong>pecially<br />
those concerning the air control service, have begun<br />
to be implemented in 2010 and we will provide a<br />
full account of them in next year’s annual report.<br />
Here, I would merely like to point out that Law<br />
9/2010 entails a thorough structural reform of our<br />
air navigation servic<strong>es</strong>, which will enable us to lower<br />
en-route charg<strong>es</strong> by 15% and eliminate the defi cit of<br />
approach charg<strong>es</strong> within two years.
As regards the policy of savings in costs, the fi rst<br />
measur<strong>es</strong> implemented in 2009 allowed us to reduce<br />
expens<strong>es</strong> by 95 million euros. Savings will be multiplied<br />
in the coming years as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the Austerity Plan for<br />
2010-2013, whereby we project a cost reduction of 750<br />
million euros.<br />
Another one of the prioriti<strong>es</strong> we set in 2009 was defi ning<br />
a new airport management model that will enable us<br />
to carry out more effective management by providing<br />
servic<strong>es</strong> that are more effi cient from an economic<br />
standpoint, and more suited to the territorial structure of<br />
our country. In 2010 important progr<strong>es</strong>s has also been<br />
made along th<strong>es</strong>e lin<strong>es</strong>, and it will be materialized in a<br />
law regulating the modernization of the airport industry.<br />
Increasing the capacity of airport faciliti<strong>es</strong> to adapt them<br />
to demands, while maintaining the high<strong>es</strong>t levels of<br />
safety and quality, and making sure that the airports<br />
contribute to the economic development of the country,<br />
was another of our prioriti<strong>es</strong> in 2009 and it will continue<br />
to be so in the future.<br />
Institutional Information<br />
Letter from the Chairman<br />
All th<strong>es</strong>e activiti<strong>es</strong> are conducted with a will to achieve<br />
environmental sustainability, making air transport<br />
compatible with environmental protection through<br />
measur<strong>es</strong> d<strong>es</strong>igned to reduce noise for populations in<br />
the vicinity of the airports, decrease green-house gas<br />
emissions and foster energy effi ciency and the use of<br />
renewable energy technologi<strong>es</strong>.<br />

Infrastructur<strong>es</strong><br />
CRITERIA FOR AENA<br />
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS<br />
During 2009 <strong>Aena</strong> carried on with its inv<strong>es</strong>tment<br />
effort given its decided belief in the need to create<br />
and develop airport infrastructur<strong>es</strong>, adopting<br />
the measur<strong>es</strong> nec<strong>es</strong>sary for expanding, modernizing<br />
and upgrading the airport faciliti<strong>es</strong> in order to<br />
adapt the capacity and servic<strong>es</strong> available to the demands<br />
on air transport.<br />
To this end, the Directorate of Infrastructur<strong>es</strong>, in<br />
keeping with the applicable rul<strong>es</strong> and guidelin<strong>es</strong>,<br />
draws up the projects and overse<strong>es</strong> the construction<br />
of the nec<strong>es</strong>sary faciliti<strong>es</strong>, thus contributing to the<br />
improvement of quality, increasing environmental<br />
sustainability, maintaining high levels of safety<br />
and prevention of workplace risks, all this within a<br />
framework of technical and economic effi ciency.<br />
The way the abovementioned criteria are applied<br />
in <strong>Aena</strong>’s development projects is explained below:<br />
Safety and prevention, In both the d<strong>es</strong>ign and<br />
construction phas<strong>es</strong> of the development projects<br />
the conditions related to workplace risk prevention<br />
have been continually improved in order to<br />
minimize workplace accidents, including in the<br />
specifi cations the preventative criteria required<br />
by <strong>Aena</strong> and by the legislation in force in this<br />
regard on minimum provisions in security and<br />
health-related matters at the construction sit<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Quality assurance, Overseeing, coordinating,<br />
supervising and directing the activiti<strong>es</strong><br />
related to the development and monitoring<br />
of the Quality Management System, in addition<br />
to conducting activiti<strong>es</strong> related to the<br />
technical audits of the construction work executed<br />
by the Directorate of Infrastructur<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
Infrastructur<strong>es</strong><br />
through the directorat<strong>es</strong> of the corr<strong>es</strong>ponding<br />
project fi l<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Environment, Directing and managing the different<br />
environmental activiti<strong>es</strong> derived from the<br />
execution of development projects, coordinating<br />
the actions nec<strong>es</strong>sary for carrying out different<br />
studi<strong>es</strong>, projects and reports that are <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
in the corr<strong>es</strong>ponding environmental impact<br />
statements required by contract, performing<br />
environmental monitoring and control from<br />
the d<strong>es</strong>ign phase until the completion of construction<br />
and collaborating, at all tim<strong>es</strong>, in the<br />
preparation and proc<strong>es</strong>sing of environmental<br />
impact studi<strong>es</strong> for the development projects assigned<br />
to the Directorate of Infrastructur<strong>es</strong>,<br />
«In 2009 <strong>Aena</strong> continued<br />
its inv<strong>es</strong>tment effort to<br />
adapt the capaciti<strong>es</strong> and<br />
servic<strong>es</strong> of the airports<br />
to the demands of air<br />
transport»<br />
Moreover, given the dimension, complexity, inv<strong>es</strong>tment<br />
in and saturation of the existing faciliti<strong>es</strong>,<br />
through the special master plans for the airports<br />
(Barcelona Plan, Levante Plan and Malaga Plan,<br />
which are the units in charge of developing and<br />
executing the faciliti<strong>es</strong> for the expansion of the airports<br />
of Barcelona, Alicante-Valencia and Malaga,<br />
r<strong>es</strong>pectively) <strong>Aena</strong> has continued their development,<br />
progr<strong>es</strong>sing in the projects and executing<br />
the programmed construction in order to modernize<br />
and upgrade the faciliti<strong>es</strong> to enable meeting<br />
demands, as well as contributing to the improvement<br />
of the image of the airports as they are perceived<br />
by users and society at large.
Barcelona Plan<br />
Progr<strong>es</strong>s continued to be made on the projected<br />
actions, with the conclusion of construction work in<br />
the new terminal area, and that corr<strong>es</strong>ponding to the<br />
expansions and upgrading of the car parks, cargo area<br />
and service area of the new Terminal 1, The most signifi<br />
cant construction under way includ<strong>es</strong> building the<br />
south Control Tower, the east aircraft apron, the road<br />
connecting the terminals and expanding the general<br />
car park.<br />
«Terminal 1 of Barcelona<br />
Airport went into service on<br />
June 17th, 2009»<br />
However, the most signifi cant event as regards the actions<br />
encompassed in the Barcelona Plan was that which<br />
took place on June 17, the opening of Barcelona Airport’s<br />
Terminal 1, which was inaugurated the previous day.<br />
Levante Plan<br />
The Levante Plan pertains to the airports of Alicante<br />
and Valencia, and during 2009 the following were the<br />
most signifi cant actions carried out:<br />
Alicante Airport, The airport servic<strong>es</strong> building was<br />

The functions entrusted to the Directorate of Air<br />
Navigation are defi ned by <strong>Aena</strong>’s articl<strong>es</strong> of association<br />
and they are as follows:<br />
Ordering, directing, coordinating, operating,<br />
managing and administering the servic<strong>es</strong> of<br />
air traffi c, communications and aeronautical<br />
information, in addition to the infrastructur<strong>es</strong>,<br />
faciliti<strong>es</strong> and communications networks of<br />
the air navigation system.<br />
Drafting and approving projects, and executing<br />
and controlling inv<strong>es</strong>tments.<br />
Evaluating needs and proposals for new infrastructur<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Participating in aeronautical education.<br />
The Directorate of Air Navigation plays a very active<br />
role in the diverse international programm<strong>es</strong><br />
d<strong>es</strong>igned to standardize systems and unify airspac<strong>es</strong>,<br />
Particularly noteworthy are its participation in<br />
the European Single Sky Programme and its involvement<br />
in the European Region and the Canary Islands-South<br />
America corridor, As regards the Single<br />
European Sky, the Directorate is certifi ed as a<br />
provider of air navigation servic<strong>es</strong> in the airspace<br />
of national sovereignty and the internationally delegated<br />
airspac<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
Air navigation<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e servic<strong>es</strong> are provided through fi ve regional<br />
air navigation directorat<strong>es</strong>: Central-northern, Eastern,<br />
Canarian, Southern and Balearic, and their<br />
headquarters are r<strong>es</strong>pectively located in Madrid-<br />
Torrejon, Barcelona-Gava, Gran Canaria-Telde, Seville-San<br />
Pablo and Palma de Mallorca-Son Sant<br />
Joan.<br />
«In the FIR Peninsula 1,75<br />
million operations were<br />
recorded and in the FIR/<br />
ACC Canary Islands, there<br />
were more than 280,000,»<br />
The trends in air traffi c are demonstrated in the<br />
statistical data on the level of demand, which refer<br />
to the volume of air movements managed<br />
by the regional directorat<strong>es</strong>, and taking into account<br />
the fact that a unitary fl ight may give rise<br />
to various movements as it cross<strong>es</strong> the different<br />
divisions of the Spanish airspace, In 2009 lower<br />
demands led to an 8,74% reduction, with r<strong>es</strong>pect<br />
to 2008, as regards movements in the peninsular<br />
airspace (which includ<strong>es</strong> the Balearic region), There<br />
were a total of 1,756,942 movements, whereas<br />
in the Canarian airspace there was a reduction of<br />
13,43%, with a total of 282,495 movements.
2, PROGRAMMES AND<br />
ACTIONS<br />
2,1 QUALITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL<br />
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM<br />
The Directorate of Air Navigation banks on a decided<br />
commitment to quality assurance, making this a main<br />
feature of its operating plan, A priority objective of<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s quality plan is to maintain the Quality Management<br />
System (QMS) of the Directorate of Air Navigation<br />
in accordance with the UNE-EN-ISO 9001:2000<br />
standards and the environmental management system<br />
(EMS) in accordance with the UNE-EN-ISO 14001:2004<br />
standards, Therefore, the main actions carried out in<br />
2009 consisted in:<br />
Implementation of the Environmental Management<br />
System (EMS) in accordance with the<br />
UNE-EN-ISO 14001:2004 standards, The Balearic<br />
DNRA obtained certifi cation as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the audit<br />
completed by Aenor in December of 2008 (the<br />
certifi cate was issued in 2009), Similarly, the certifi<br />
cat<strong>es</strong> of the Eastern Region, Canarian Region,<br />
Central-Northern Region and Southern Region<br />
and Central Air Navigation Servic<strong>es</strong> were renewed.<br />
The Directorate of Quality, Safety and Certifi cation<br />
of Air Navigation completed the development phase<br />
and began implementing the plan for integrating<br />
the Directorate of Air Navigation’s management,<br />
quality, safety and security systems.<br />
The objective of this plan is to ensure effective administration<br />
of the management systems, making them<br />
compatible with each other so that the DNA can <strong>es</strong>tablish<br />
aligned objectiv<strong>es</strong>, with an overall view of them,<br />
and facilitate decision-making in the realms of quality,<br />
environment, safety and security.<br />

2,2 SAFETY MANAGEMENT<br />
SYSTEM (SMS)<br />
Need for the ANSMS<br />
The safety of air traffi c constitut<strong>es</strong> a key commitment<br />
for the national and international organizations in<br />
charge of regulating and managing the air navigation<br />
system as a whole, and it is the air navigation service’s<br />
reason for being, Therefore, the Air Navigation Safety<br />
Management System (ANSMS) developed by <strong>Aena</strong><br />
through the DNA compli<strong>es</strong> with the set of common requirements<br />
<strong>es</strong>tablished by the European Commission<br />
and the Spanish Aeronautical Authority (DGAC) and,<br />
specifi cally, it is founded on the following principl<strong>es</strong>:<br />
To grant the high<strong>es</strong>t priority to safety in the provision<br />
of air navigation servic<strong>es</strong>, over and above any<br />
other fi nancial, operational, social or environmental<br />
criterion.<br />
To succeed in minimizing the air navigation<br />
system’s contribution to risk situations.<br />
To ensure a formal, explicit and proactive approach<br />
to systematic safety management.<br />
SAFETY<br />
The Safety Management System having been put in place<br />
in 2006 in compliance with the requirements <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
in the standards for the provision of air navigation servic<strong>es</strong><br />
(EC no, 550/2004) and the ministerial order of the<br />
DGAC on March 16th, 2006 regarding the attainment of<br />
certifi cation for providers of civil air navigation servic<strong>es</strong> in<br />
accordance with the European Single Sky rul<strong>es</strong>, over the<br />
course of 2009 the following progr<strong>es</strong>s was made concerning<br />
safety:<br />
Important progr<strong>es</strong>s was made pertaining to training,<br />
as the CBT safety course was given to 1,212<br />
students, Diverse manuals on this subject are<br />
Annual report 2009 235

General information<br />
Air navigation<br />
being produced and updated: drafting of the<br />
document on good practic<strong>es</strong> regarding safety<br />
information, revision of the manual on the<br />
emergency plan and drafting of the AN protocol<br />
to put in place in the event that a serious<br />
accident or incident should occur.<br />
To improve the means of raising awaren<strong>es</strong>s<br />
about safety, a new magazine was published,<br />
+Seguridad en <strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong> (More Security<br />
in Air Navigation), of which there were<br />
two editions made in 2009, A safety website<br />
was also developed, and its addr<strong>es</strong>s is http://<br />
safety,lean,na,aena,<strong>es</strong>/, It can be visited directly<br />
or through Internav (Air Navigation’s intranet).<br />
With regard to handling and ass<strong>es</strong>sment of<br />
safety incidents, the total number of internal<br />
notifications increased, The risk ass<strong>es</strong>sment and<br />
mitigation proc<strong>es</strong>s is virtually consolidated, as<br />
the proper documentation for expediting it has<br />
been produced and the new coordination mechanisms<br />
have been <strong>es</strong>tablished.<br />
SECURITY<br />
Among the Directorate of Air Navigation’s main<br />
missions is to ensure the protection of people, faciliti<strong>es</strong>,<br />
technical means and data pertaining to AN,<br />
Therefore, the following steps were taken to improve<br />
the proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> of security management:<br />
Human R<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> for security were optimized<br />
by installing security systems that reduce expens<strong>es</strong><br />
of security personnel without jeopardizing<br />
the faciliti<strong>es</strong>, Specifically, in 2009 reductions<br />
included: 1H9 in Menorca, 1H24 in Gran<br />
Canaria, 1H24 in Radar MGA of Malaga and<br />
2H24 in the Southern Region ACC and C,R, el<br />
Judio.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
At the same time, detection systems were put in<br />
place, notably the implementation of Air Navigation<br />
credentials in the faciliti<strong>es</strong> where they were<br />
requisite.<br />
2,3 DEVELOPMENT AND EVOLUTION<br />
OF OPERATIONS<br />
Organization and management of the airspace<br />
The Directorate of Air Navigation is committed to<br />
reaching maximum levels of quality in the servic<strong>es</strong> it<br />
provid<strong>es</strong> by continually improving the effi cacy of the<br />
servic<strong>es</strong> rendered and the effi ciency of the system, As<br />
regards operations, the servic<strong>es</strong> provided are: organization<br />
and management of the airspace, management<br />
of the capacity-demand and control of air transit and<br />
aeronautical information.<br />
In order to increase effi ciency, its objective is to reduce<br />
delays caused by the Spanish air transit management<br />
system, improve performance with r<strong>es</strong>pect to the<br />
number of operations in highly demanded periods and<br />
tim<strong>es</strong>, in addition to offering the possibility of selecting<br />
preferred rout<strong>es</strong> and optimizing the management of<br />
traffi c capacity and fl ow by meeting the requirements<br />
of users’ real-time operation.<br />
«Servic<strong>es</strong> are rendered<br />
through five regional<br />
directorat<strong>es</strong> whose<br />
headquarters are located in<br />
Madrid-Torrejon, Barcelona-<br />
Gava, Gran Canaria-Telde,<br />
Seville-San Pablo and Palma<br />
de Mallorca-Son Sant Joan»
The strategic chang<strong>es</strong> addr<strong>es</strong>sed in 2009, defi ned in the<br />
ATM action plan, are the following:<br />
In the organization and management of the airspace:<br />
the latter will be structured and managed<br />
regardl<strong>es</strong>s of internal and external organizational<br />
borders, The ATC sectors will be d<strong>es</strong>igned according<br />
to demands in air traffi c fl ows, without the<br />
organizational borders entailing limitations in the<br />
attainment of the b<strong>es</strong>t solutions.<br />
The route d<strong>es</strong>ign and network will be optimized:<br />
the network of rout<strong>es</strong> will be d<strong>es</strong>igned according<br />
to users’ preferenc<strong>es</strong>, and procedur<strong>es</strong> for<br />
facilitating alternativ<strong>es</strong> will also be developed.<br />
ATC will be optimized through the development<br />
and dynamic application of ATC sector-position<br />
confi gurations in r<strong>es</strong>ponse to different operating<br />
scenarios.<br />
General information<br />
Air navigation<br />
Availability of use of the entire airspace: the airspace<br />
will be treated as a continuous r<strong>es</strong>ource available<br />
to all users.<br />
It is important to highlight that 95,5% of the ATM<br />
2009 action plan was accomplished.<br />
TRAFFIC<br />
In the year 2009 a total number of 1,879,810 fl ights<br />
were managed by the Directorate of Air Navigation,<br />
which repr<strong>es</strong>ents an 8,99% decline from the<br />

controllers and pilots will receive assistance through<br />
new automated functions in order to facilitate their<br />
work and enable them to carry out complex decision-making<br />
proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The development and implementation of the SE-<br />
SAR programme is being carried out progr<strong>es</strong>sively<br />
and it is divided into three phas<strong>es</strong>:<br />
Defi nition phase (2006-2008)<br />
The main objective during this phase is drafting a European<br />
ATM (air traffi c management) master plan,<br />
This is undertaken by a consortium hired by Eurocontrol<br />
(which funds it in conjunction with the European<br />
Commission) in which the most relevant compani<strong>es</strong> and<br />
organizations in the European air transport industry are<br />
repr<strong>es</strong>ented: airlin<strong>es</strong> (Lufthansa, Iberia, Air France,,,),<br />
manufacturers (Airbus, Thal<strong>es</strong>, Indra,,,), airports (<strong>Aena</strong>,<br />
BAA, Fraport, Schipol,,,) and air navigation service providers<br />
(<strong>Aena</strong>, DFS, NATS, ENAV, DSNA,,,).<br />
Development phase (2008-2014)<br />
During this phase the r<strong>es</strong>earch, development and validation<br />
tasks stipulated in the ATM master plan will be<br />
carried out, All the activiti<strong>es</strong> at this stage will be coordinated<br />
and funded by the SESAR Joint Undertaking<br />
(SJU), ultimately r<strong>es</strong>ponsible for the identifi cation and<br />
development of the future European ATM system.<br />
Deployment phase (2014-2020)<br />

radioelectric signals generated in ground faciliti<strong>es</strong><br />
and received airborne, which permit the instrumental<br />
fl ight of aeroplan<strong>es</strong> without the need for visual<br />
referenc<strong>es</strong>, The navigation systems support instrumental<br />
fl ight, which consists of the following stag<strong>es</strong>:<br />
departure, en-route, arrival, approach and landing,<br />
Each one of th<strong>es</strong>e stag<strong>es</strong> has standard procedur<strong>es</strong><br />
and its associated radio-aids, published in the aeronautical<br />
navigation charts, The main activiti<strong>es</strong> conducted<br />
in 2009 are indicated below by programm<strong>es</strong>:

Among the objectiv<strong>es</strong> of Air Navigation is that of reinforcing<br />
its standing in the international arena, To this<br />
end, actions were undertaken throughout 2009 in the<br />
following fi elds:<br />
PENS:<br />
For the purpose of offering a joint European network<br />
of air navigation servic<strong>es</strong> and information<br />
exchange between stakeholders, based on IP protocols,<br />
the PENS (Pan-European Network Servic<strong>es</strong>)<br />
project was launched on October 28th 2009, as<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> and its Swedish and Norwegian equivalents<br />
offi cially became Eurocontrol users, Likewise,<br />
ENAV, LPS, NATS, and NAV Portugal signed a letter<br />
of intent with the commitment to join soon, At<br />
the same s<strong>es</strong>sion, as ECTL had committed, Redan<br />
was formally subcontracted by Sita as a PENS solution<br />
to service provision in Spain, <strong>Aena</strong> therefore<br />
became the fi rst service provider in Europe to reach<br />
this status, It is anticipated that, following in <strong>Aena</strong>’s<br />
footsteps, other national ANSP networks will join in<br />
the coming months.<br />
To foster international institutional relations, high<br />

COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY<br />
The Directorate of Commercial Space and Servic<strong>es</strong><br />
has a double mission “to optimize the contribution<br />
of sal<strong>es</strong> revenu<strong>es</strong> in <strong>Aena</strong>’s overall profi t and loss statement,<br />
and simultaneously meet passengers’ needs<br />
and demands in terms of quality”, Greater generation<br />
of busin<strong>es</strong>s r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> is a means of fi nancing<br />
the inv<strong>es</strong>tments for<strong>es</strong>een by <strong>Aena</strong>, always in terms<br />
of effi ciency and effi cacy, by improving the profi tability<br />
of the airport busin<strong>es</strong>s in order to maintain the<br />
competitiven<strong>es</strong>s of aeronautical fe<strong>es</strong>.<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s sal<strong>es</strong> revenu<strong>es</strong> in 2009 amounted to 572,23<br />
million euros (-5,7% in comparison to the previous<br />
year, basically because of the overall effect of the<br />
ongoing economic rec<strong>es</strong>sion and the fall in passenger<br />
traffi c), The ratio of sal<strong>es</strong> revenue per passenger<br />
was 3,08 euros, which repr<strong>es</strong>ented a 2,52% increase<br />
over the previous year.<br />
The main busin<strong>es</strong>s lin<strong>es</strong> at our airports, which contribute<br />
to accomplishing the double mission mentioned<br />
above, are: car parks, shops and duty-free shops,<br />
car hire, food outlets, managing land (rentals), advertising,<br />
fuel and busin<strong>es</strong>s operations.<br />
Our array of retail conc<strong>es</strong>sionair<strong>es</strong> compris<strong>es</strong> more<br />
than one hundred shops, including pr<strong>es</strong>tigious local<br />
and international compani<strong>es</strong> and brands, such as Aldeasa,<br />
Canariensis, Áreas, Dufry, Relay (SGEL), Zara,<br />
Mango, Mássimo Dutti, Becara, Adolfo Domínguez,<br />
D<strong>es</strong>igual, Ferrari, Puma, Carolina Herrera, Rolex,<br />
Chocolat Factory, Picuadro, Imaginarium and Tous,<br />
among others, In accordance with the market studi<strong>es</strong><br />
conducted, we are introducing local brands and<br />
products, as a refl ection of the community the airport<br />
serv<strong>es</strong>, as is the case of the shop specialized in<br />
gifts and crafts in the T1 of Barcelona Airport, Thinking<br />

and won the “B<strong>es</strong>t specialized concept of the year”<br />
award granted by the Travel Retail industry.<br />
«<strong>Aena</strong> brought in 572 million<br />
euros in retail revenu<strong>es</strong>,»<br />
As for dining, there are international operators such<br />
as Áreas, SSP, Grupo VIPS, Autogrill, McDonald’s,<br />
Pansfood, etcetera, with standards on our premis<strong>es</strong><br />
in the airport such as McDonald’s, Burger King, Starbucks,<br />
Lizarrán, Subway, Häagen Dazs, Caffriccio,<br />
Ritazza, among others, At the Madrid-Barajas and<br />
Barcelona airports there is a noteworthy pr<strong>es</strong>ence<br />
of two spac<strong>es</strong> whose chefs have been awarded Michelin<br />
stars at the r<strong>es</strong>taurants “El Madroño” and “El<br />
Gaig”, r<strong>es</strong>pectively, This type of service will become<br />
increasingly consolidated in the years to come, as a<br />
r<strong>es</strong>ult of our banking on improving the quality of<br />
our offerings.<br />
The car hire service is provided by diverse operators<br />
that are also international, most notably Avis, Hertz,<br />
Europcar, and National At<strong>es</strong>a, The advertising activity<br />
is currently mainly allocated to the compani<strong>es</strong> JC<br />
Decaux and Publimedia.<br />
In addition to meeting the demands of passengers,<br />
the airport retail busin<strong>es</strong>s is d<strong>es</strong>igned for the entire<br />
airport population, including employe<strong>es</strong> and companions,<br />
For this reason the products and servic<strong>es</strong> on<br />
offer cover a broader and more varied range (supermarkets,<br />
beauty centr<strong>es</strong>, petrol stations and so on).<br />
With regard to the development of retail faciliti<strong>es</strong> a<br />
number of signifi cant actions have been taken:<br />
New Terminal 1 of Barcelona Airport began operating<br />
in June 2009, Approximately 26,000 m 2 of<br />
new retail fl oor space was opened: 8,427 m 2 for<br />

Busin<strong>es</strong>s Centre, 5 car hire outlets and a VIP car park.<br />
“The retail revenue ratio was<br />
3 euros per passenger”<br />
Remodelling of the shopping area of Fuerteventura<br />
Airport in April 2009: 11 new <strong>es</strong>tablishments in 2,000<br />
m 2 of new retail space.<br />
Remodelling of the shopping area (1st phase) of Ibiza<br />
Airport in May 2009: 8 new <strong>es</strong>tablishments in nearly<br />
1,000 m 2 of newly remodelled retail space.<br />
The construction work at Malaga Airport, for opening<br />
the New Passenger Terminal Building (T3), will provide<br />
it with a retail space with a potential for housing 29<br />
shops in an area amounting to 5,255 m 2 , and 21 food<br />
outlets in an area of 5,234 m 2 .<br />
The proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> and procedur<strong>es</strong> of controlling sal<strong>es</strong> revenu<strong>es</strong><br />
carried out by the airport managers have been redefi<br />
ned, This will enable improving the control and monitoring<br />
of commercial activity.<br />

Annual report 2009<br />
Several noteworthy promotional activiti<strong>es</strong> related to our<br />
brand “Las Tiendas del Aeropuerto” were carried out to<br />
support its management at the airports where it is <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
and as a means to encourage buying in our retail<br />
spac<strong>es</strong>, Th<strong>es</strong>e projects, endeavoured in close collaboration<br />
with our retail conc<strong>es</strong>sionair<strong>es</strong>, include “Book Week”,<br />
“Green Bags” (Barcelona, Menorca, Saragossa and Tenerife<br />
Sur airports) and “Christmas Campaign” (at eleven airports:<br />
the seven wherein the brand is <strong>es</strong>tablished and also<br />
at the airports of Malaga, Alicante, Gran Canaria and<br />
Ibiza), In addition, and for the fi rst time, an inter<strong>es</strong>ting direct<br />
discount campaign was undertaken at eight airports<br />
through an action called “Two free Euros”.<br />
In the sphere of marketing land, the demand has been<br />
identifi ed and the marketable terrains of the airports have<br />
been inventoried, a key aspect for succ<strong>es</strong>s in marketing<br />
them in the b<strong>es</strong>t and most effi cient way.<br />
As far as busin<strong>es</strong>s know-how is concerned, training<br />
actions were offered throughout 2009 for different<br />
groups within the organization that belong to other key<br />
functional areas, and whose collaboration is relevant for<br />
the optimization of sal<strong>es</strong> revenu<strong>es</strong>,<br />

AENA INTERNACIONAL<br />
DESARROLLO S,A<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional conducts its activity as a leading<br />
Spanish company in the management of aeronautical<br />
faciliti<strong>es</strong> for a total of 28 airports, located<br />
throughout Latin America (Mexico, Colombia, Cuba<br />
and Bolivia), the European Union (the United Kingdom<br />
and Sweden) and the United Stat<strong>es</strong>.<br />
With a diversity of forms of ownership in its subsidiari<strong>es</strong>,<br />
from the conc<strong>es</strong>sion of airport faciliti<strong>es</strong><br />
or contracts for the management of terminals or<br />
servic<strong>es</strong>, to the ownership of assets, the common<br />
denominator of <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional’s contribution<br />
is the transfer of knowledge as a generator<br />
of value through the direct involvement of its executive<br />
offi cers in management and by providing<br />
quality technical aeronautical assistance servic<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The latter, whether as an operating partner in some<br />
cas<strong>es</strong>, or a mere service provider in others, are<br />
materialized through projects in which the primary<br />
valu<strong>es</strong> are safety, effi ciency and r<strong>es</strong>pect for<br />
the environment, the pillars upholding our management,<br />
which is recognized and highly <strong>es</strong>teemed<br />
by our partners, customers and related<br />
institutions.<br />
In 2009, as a consequence of the global fi nancial<br />
crisis and its repercussions in the transport industry,<br />
the level of activity of <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional<br />
subsidiari<strong>es</strong> was lower than that of 2008 because<br />
of the decline in passengers recorded mainly in<br />
Mexico and in the entirety of airports that make<br />
up TBI, Neverthel<strong>es</strong>s, <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional was able<br />
to conclude the year with a good performance<br />
yield, <strong>es</strong>pecially owing to the implementation of<br />
effi cient cost control strategi<strong>es</strong> and prudent inv<strong>es</strong>tment<br />
in its subsidiari<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Worthy of note in the aeronautical servic<strong>es</strong> area<br />
is the consolidation of the Galileo project offi -<br />
ce and full operation of the in-fl ight verifi cation<br />
unit that has satisfactorily rendered the servic<strong>es</strong><br />
of verifying the radio-aids of the <strong>Aena</strong> network<br />
throughout the year.<br />
«The airports of Grupo<br />
Aeroportuario del Pacífico<br />
have certificat<strong>es</strong> for<br />
acc<strong>es</strong>sibility, environmental<br />
compliance and quality,»<br />
Lastly, the renewal of the ISO 9001-2008 certifi<br />
cation for the activiti<strong>es</strong> we conduct is an<br />
endorsement of our efforts for continual improvement<br />
and, for our customers, it is a guarantee<br />
of our commitment to quality.<br />

<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional’s 17,3% share of capital, and technical<br />
assistance contract, as an operating partner, is<br />
carried out through the company <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> Mexicanos<br />
del Pacífi co (AMP), which in turn is GAP’s strategic<br />
partner.<br />
GAP is listed on the Mexican and New York stock exchang<strong>es</strong><br />
and it is the larg<strong>es</strong>t private airport group in<br />
America.<br />
Airport Activity<br />
The group’s activity in 2009 involved a total of 19,2<br />
million passengers, which repr<strong>es</strong>ents a 13,3% decline<br />
with r<strong>es</strong>pect to 2008.<br />
This slowdown in airport activity in 2009 was primarily<br />
a consequence of the diffi cult worldwide economic<br />
scenario, which had <strong>es</strong>pecially signifi cant ramifi cations<br />
within the industry in Mexico and the United Stat<strong>es</strong><br />
(its main market abroad), the reorganization of the<br />
low-cost market and the defi nitive closure of several<br />
airlin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
«The Mexican authoriti<strong>es</strong>’<br />
approval of the Master<br />
Plan 2010-2014 provid<strong>es</strong><br />
a stable framework for<br />
management,»<br />
Operational activity decreased by 12,92%, in line with<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
the drop in traffi c, totalling 405,007 operations.<br />
As regards air cargo, which reached a total fi gure of<br />
126,278 tons, the rec<strong>es</strong>sion of the economy of the United<br />
Stat<strong>es</strong> was also felt since it is Mexico’s principal market.<br />
The main actions were related to the execution of the<br />
corr<strong>es</strong>ponding master plans for development, and<br />
additional inv<strong>es</strong>tment plans, making for an inv<strong>es</strong>tment<br />
of more than 420 million Mexican p<strong>es</strong>os in projects including<br />
the construction of private aviation terminals<br />
in Guadalajara and San Jose del Cabo.<br />
It is also important to highlight the accomplishment<br />
of attaining the approval of the Mexican authoriti<strong>es</strong><br />
of the 2010-2024 Master Plan (drawn up by <strong>Aena</strong> for<br />
the 12 airports of the group) and the associated inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
and fee regulation, which secur<strong>es</strong> a stable<br />
framework for management over the next fi ve years.<br />

«The In-fl ight Verifi cation<br />

The management undertaken during 2009 has led to a<br />
7,3% growth in international passenger traffi c, compared<br />
to 2008, as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the implementation of a wise<br />
marketing policy in seeking new rout<strong>es</strong> and new operators;<br />
and a 19,42% growth in dom<strong>es</strong>tic traffi c, basically<br />
brought about by the appearance of low-cost airlin<strong>es</strong>.
Barranquilla Airport<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional is operating partner and shareholder<br />

Passenger traffi c in 2009 grew by 8,34% boosted by<br />
the 14,8% increase in dom<strong>es</strong>tic traffi c following the<br />
introduction of low-cost airlin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The increase in dom<strong>es</strong>tic traffi c attenuated the decrease<br />
in international traffi c r<strong>es</strong>ulting from the worldwide<br />
fi nancial crisis, Nonethel<strong>es</strong>s, as of the second quarter of<br />
2009 signs of recovery could be observed in the <strong>es</strong>tablishment<br />

Cali Airport<br />
The management of Cali Airport is carried out through<br />
the company Aerocali, S,A,, in which <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional<br />

The year 2009 ended with signifi cant increas<strong>es</strong> in traffi<br />
c, both that of dom<strong>es</strong>tic passengers, with a 12,7%<br />
increase, and that of international passengers, which<br />
rose by 3,36%.<br />
The efforts made to improve busin<strong>es</strong>s income, in addition<br />

and Skavsta in Sweden, TBI also has different operating<br />
and management contracts at airports in the United<br />
Stat<strong>es</strong> (Atlanta, Burbank and Macon).<br />
General information<br />
International Development<br />
The impact of the worldwide fi nancial crisis has r<strong>es</strong>ulted<br />
in a 7,7% decrease in passenger traffi c, mainly<br />
caused by the sharp decline in passengers at the airports<br />
of the United Kingdom, However, the strategy of<br />
curbing costs and inv<strong>es</strong>tments has served to mitigate<br />
the impact in the year-end r<strong>es</strong>ult.<br />

1. FINANCIAL<br />
RESULTS<br />
1.1. CONSOLIDATED PROFIT/LOSS<br />
Operating income in 2009, at more than 3,098 million<br />
euros, decreased by only 4% with r<strong>es</strong>pect to 2008 d<strong>es</strong>pite<br />
a decline in passenger traffi c and operations of<br />
more than 8% from 2008, mirroring the sharp downturn<br />
in air traffi c worldwide.<br />
The larg<strong>es</strong>t contributions to consolidated operating income<br />
came from the parent company <strong>Aena</strong>, (96%),<br />
and the company Ingeniería y Economía del Transporte<br />
S.A. (Ineco), which contributed 3%, in keeping with<br />
previous fi nancial years.<br />
Although operating costs grew at a rate of l<strong>es</strong>s than<br />
6%, due to the fall in traffi c and to high operating leverage,<br />
operating income fell.<br />

Financial loss was reduced by 20% in 2009, to<br />
283.3 million euros, owing to decreased financial<br />
costs derived from borrowing to make the inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
projected in the inv<strong>es</strong>tment plan for the financial<br />

3.3. INTERNATIONAL<br />
In the international sphere, it is important to highlight visits<br />
and meetings with foreign delegations at our airports,<br />
from countri<strong>es</strong> such as the Netherlands, Brazil, South Korea,<br />
Egypt, Norway, Portugal and the United Kingdom, as<br />
well as <strong>Aena</strong>’s participation in ACI EUROPE’s 4th Airport Exchange<br />
Conference, and the meeting of the Majors group,<br />
both held in Barcelona, in addition to the meeting of the<br />
Community Observatory on Airport Capacity, in Madrid.<br />
In October 2009, <strong>Aena</strong> Chairman, Juan Ignacio Lema,<br />
was named member of the Governing Board of Airports<br />
Council International, ACI, while the director of<br />
Spanish Airports continued as member of the European<br />
Board of ACI Europe.<br />
The Directorate of Spanish Airports continued its collaboration<br />
with the Directorate of Air Navigation in the<br />
S<strong>es</strong>ar programme. <strong>Aena</strong> was d<strong>es</strong>ignated to lead the<br />
management of the so-called Airport Operations WP6<br />
and the Directorate of Spanish Airports contribut<strong>es</strong> by<br />
participating in 13 projects.<br />
Similarly of note is the attendance at and participation<br />
in the 38th and 39th meetings of ACI Europe’s Environmental<br />
Strategy Committee meetings held during<br />
the months of April and October 2009, r<strong>es</strong>pectively.<br />
In the sphere of the Directorate of Air Navigation the<br />
following activiti<strong>es</strong> are most noteworthy:<br />
Adaptation to the new SES regulatory framework<br />
Coordination with A<strong>es</strong>a to streamline the external audit<br />
proc<strong>es</strong>s in keeping with better practic<strong>es</strong> in Europe:<br />
− The internal and external (A<strong>es</strong>a/Senasa) coordination<br />
of the entire Annual Supervision Plan<br />
2009 was performed. This included 51 inspections<br />
r<strong>es</strong>ulting in the detection of 150 infractions.<br />
The ratio improved by nearly 25% over<br />
S<strong>es</strong>ar<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
2008. Periodic reports of the state of the Supervision<br />
Plan were drafted.<br />
− Justifi cation and allegation reports for A<strong>es</strong>a<br />
were prepared (technical certifi cation, quality<br />
parameters, operational-support units documentation,<br />
AIS-NOF contingency, LVP)<br />
− The expansion of certifi cation to ADS-C was<br />
arranged and negotiated with A<strong>es</strong>a, including<br />
updating all the certifi cation support documents<br />
in technical, legal and organizational<br />
areas, with the expansion of the certifi cate to<br />
ADS-C on July 2nd 2009.<br />
The internal audit unit was <strong>es</strong>tablished:<br />
− Development and formalization of the A131 internal<br />
audit proc<strong>es</strong>s form: A131-19-PGR-001;<br />
general internal audit procedure of the Directorate<br />
of Air Navigation (DNA) and procedure<br />
and other associated documents.<br />
− The internal audit proc<strong>es</strong>s prior to the future<br />
Aenor certifi cation in April of 2010 was prepared:<br />
<strong>es</strong>tablishment of requisit<strong>es</strong> and coordination<br />
with Ineco. The internal audits programmed<br />
began in November and they were<br />
completed in March 2010.<br />
Over the course of 2009 two bids were submitted (BAFO<br />
1 and BAFO 2), and <strong>Aena</strong> was eventually awarded 95 of<br />
the 98 projects it proposed, for a total sum of 72.6 million<br />
euros. A control procedure was <strong>es</strong>tablished for <strong>Aena</strong>’s<br />
participation in the development phase of the S<strong>es</strong>ar<br />
programme and in order to conduct this monitoring:<br />
Teams were created to develop all the projects awarded<br />
and to perform the associated management tasks.<br />

Coordination mechanisms during S<strong>es</strong>ar Committee<br />
meetings were <strong>es</strong>tablished through an online<br />
tool developed for this purpose.<br />
It is <strong>es</strong>sential to point out that the proc<strong>es</strong>s of assuring<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s contribution to the S<strong>es</strong>ar programme is<br />
an ongoing activity: an assurance that <strong>Aena</strong> fulfi<br />
ls its contractual agreements with the SJU in due<br />
time and form.<br />
Other international endeavours<br />
One of the objectiv<strong>es</strong> of Air Navigation is to increase<br />
its infl uence in the international arena. To this end actions<br />

3.3.1. AENA INTERNACIONAL<br />
During 2009 <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional continued participating<br />
actively in the management it undertak<strong>es</strong> in differ-
ent corporate forms at 28 airports in which it has an<br />
inter<strong>es</strong>t in Latin America (Mexico, Colombia, Cuba and<br />
Bolivia), the European Union (the United Kingdom and<br />
Sweden) and the United Stat<strong>es</strong> of America.<br />
The diffi cult conditions of the air transport industry during<br />
2009, ensuing from the worldwide fi nancial crisis,<br />
had a negative impact on many of the assets managed<br />
by <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional, which r<strong>es</strong>ulted in an 8.17%<br />
downturn in passenger traffi c, with a total of 47.5 million<br />
passengers as opposed to 52 million in 2008.<br />
Especially signifi cant were the decline in traffi c at airports<br />
operated in Mexico where passenger throughput<br />
decreased by 13.3% from the previous year.<br />
Elsewhere, passenger traffi c throughout TBI likewise<br />
suffered a sharp downturn at 7.7%. Of note, however,<br />
is the overall abundance of traffi c at airports in<br />
Colombia which, on the whole, recorded an 11.97%<br />
increase in 2009.<br />
D<strong>es</strong>pite the general decrease in traffi c, the management<br />
strategy based on cost containment to a<br />
certain extent compensated for that decline by preventing<br />
its being directly transferred to operating income,<br />
which can be considered positive, considering<br />
the crisis we are in.<br />
Overall, <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional has continued providing<br />
technical support and assistance servic<strong>es</strong> at the airports<br />
in which it has an inter<strong>es</strong>t, <strong>es</strong>pecially where it<br />
acts as operating partner.<br />
In the aeronautics servic<strong>es</strong> area, 2009 was a year of<br />
consolidating the operations of the In-fl ight Verifi cation<br />
Unit and the Galileo project offi ce.<br />
Regarding the quality system, <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional continued<br />
striving to improve the quality of its servic<strong>es</strong>,<br />
adapting its management system and attaining certifi -<br />
cation in line with the new ISO 9001:2008 standards.<br />
As a consequence of the activity d<strong>es</strong>cribed above, the<br />
company has continued to earn profi t from operations<br />

Management Report<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s holding in <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional in the Grupo<br />
Aeroportuario del Pacífico (GAP), which operat<strong>es</strong><br />
12 airports in Mexico, is administered through<br />
the company <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> Mexicanos del Pacífico<br />
(AMP), which in turn is GAP’s strategic partner<br />
through 17.4% of the capital and a technical support<br />
contract, and in which <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional is its<br />
operating partner.<br />
In 2009 GAP operations demonstrated a signifi cant<br />
slump in growth due to the persistence of the diffi -<br />
cult worldwide fi nancial situation (which considerably<br />
affected the industry in Mexico and its principal international<br />
market, the Unit<strong>es</strong> Stat<strong>es</strong> of America), the reorganization<br />
of the low-cost market and the defi nitive<br />
disappearance of several airlin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Total passenger throughput (excluding transit) fell by<br />
13.3%. Passenger traffi c was at 19.2 million, 66% of<br />
which was dom<strong>es</strong>tic and 34% of which was international.<br />
Operational activity declined by 12.92% in step with<br />
the fall in traffi c, as there were a total of 405,007 operations.<br />
Air cargo was also affected by the downturn in the<br />
economy of the United Stat<strong>es</strong> of America, as a total<br />
of 126,278 tonn<strong>es</strong> were carried. However, in the last<br />
months a signifi cant recovery was made.<br />
All th<strong>es</strong>e factors had a negative infl uence on the company’s<br />
EBITDA, though to a l<strong>es</strong>ser extent than on traffi c<br />
due to the succ<strong>es</strong>sful practice of cost containment and<br />
the strength of sal<strong>es</strong> income. Thus, the EBITDA margin<br />
was maintained owing to rigorous cost controls.<br />

The Mexican authoriti<strong>es</strong>’ approval of the Master Plan<br />
2010-2024 was attained. This plan was drawn up by <strong>Aena</strong><br />
for the group’s 12 airports. The inv<strong>es</strong>tments and associated<br />
regulation of charg<strong>es</strong> were also approved, thus providing<br />
a stable management framework for the next fi ve years.<br />
Main endeavours<br />
The relevant developmental master plans and additional<br />
inv<strong>es</strong>tment plans continued to be implemented, as<br />
more than 420 million Mexican p<strong>es</strong>os were inv<strong>es</strong>ted.<br />
The main endeavours in 2009 consisted in adapting<br />
the infrastructur<strong>es</strong> of the airports to ICAO standards,<br />
upgrading pavement and building private aviation terminals<br />
(FBOs) in Guadalajara and San José del Cabo.<br />
Moreover, the new ground transport station of the new<br />
parking area at Guadalajara Airport was completed.<br />
With regard to sal<strong>es</strong>, the inv<strong>es</strong>tments in FBO and<br />
ground terminals led to launching new servic<strong>es</strong> in<br />
th<strong>es</strong>e faciliti<strong>es</strong>, and the expansions of the shopping<br />
areas in Guadalajara and San José del Cabo led to a<br />
newly arranged passenger fl ow.<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional advice and consulting<br />
The projected Technology Transfer Plan was developed<br />
with a special contribution of training and technical<br />
areas (diagnos<strong>es</strong> of pavement condition, airport signposting<br />
and studi<strong>es</strong> of cardio-safe airports).<br />
In 2009 <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional prepared a diagnosis of<br />
GAP’s information systems and drew up a proposal for<br />
the implementation of the Scena operational system<br />
at the 12 airports.<br />
COLOMBIA<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional has an inter<strong>es</strong>t, as operating partner,<br />
in the airports of Cartagena de Indias, Barranqilla<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
and Cali, with r<strong>es</strong>pective holdings of 38%, 40% and<br />
33% in the compani<strong>es</strong> that manage them Sacsa (Sociedad<br />
Aeroportuaria de la Costa S.A. in Cartagena de<br />
Indias), Acsa (<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> del Caribe S.A. in Baranquilla)<br />
and Sociedad Aerocali S.A. in Cali.<br />
Activiti<strong>es</strong> at th<strong>es</strong>e airports evolved favourably in 2009:<br />
Sacsa. In 2009, owing to the efforts intended to increase<br />
traffi c, and as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the marketing plan,<br />
international passenger traffi c again rose considerably,<br />
by 7.3%. The growth in international passenger<br />
traffi c was brought about by the addition of a<br />
new airline, Lan Perú, as well as the increased frequenci<strong>es</strong><br />
of the airline Spirit and the airline Aerorepública’s<br />
new route to Caracas. As regards dom<strong>es</strong>tic<br />
traffi c trends, the Colombian airports were<br />
affected by the launching of the low-cost airlin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Thus, dom<strong>es</strong>tic passenger traffi c in Cartagena increased<br />
by 19.42% over the previous year with the<br />
start-up of two new airlin<strong>es</strong>: Air<strong>es</strong> and Easy Fly. As a<br />
consequence of the former, in 2009 Sacsa’s operating<br />
income grew by 24% over that of 2008.<br />
Acsa. Passenger traffi c grew by 8.34% bolstered by<br />
a 14.8% increase in dom<strong>es</strong>tic traffi c, following the<br />
introduction of low-cost airlin<strong>es</strong>. The increase in dom<strong>es</strong>tic<br />
traffi c attenuated the downturn in international<br />
traffi c caused by the worldwide fi nancial situation<br />
and the withdrawal of American Airlin<strong>es</strong> from<br />
Barranquilla Airport. However, starting the second<br />
sem<strong>es</strong>ter of 2009 signs of recovery were observed<br />
as new international rout<strong>es</strong> were introduced and a<br />
new route to Miami was announced for 2010.<br />
AEROCALI. Traffi c increased over the previous fi nancial<br />
year and reached the fi gure of 2.74 million passengers.<br />
Dom<strong>es</strong>tic passengers increased by 12.7%<br />
and international passengers by 3.36%. This, along<br />
with the efforts made by Aerocali to improve busin<strong>es</strong>s<br />
income and contain costs, r<strong>es</strong>ulted in a 20.3%
CUBA<br />
rise in operational profi t for the company. In 2009<br />
the company again paid out dividends to its shareholders<br />
for the second time since its founding.<br />
In 2009 <strong>Aena</strong> Internacional signed a new contract with<br />
Empr<strong>es</strong>a Cubana de <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> y Servicios Aeronáuticos<br />
for “Advice and training for operating Ecasa airports”.<br />
With this new contract the busin<strong>es</strong>s relations with Ecasa<br />
(the enterprise that administrat<strong>es</strong> and operat<strong>es</strong> the<br />
airports in Cuba) are continued and expanded.<br />
TBI<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> Internacional has an ownership inter<strong>es</strong>t in the<br />
company TBI P.L.C. through its sole owner, Airports Conc<strong>es</strong>sions<br />
and Development Limited (ACDL), in which it<br />
has a 10% shareholding. Either directly or through conc<strong>es</strong>sions<br />
TBI operat<strong>es</strong> the airports of Luton, Belfast and<br />
Cardiff in the United Kingdom; Orland Sanford in the<br />
United Stat<strong>es</strong>; La Paz, Santa Cruz and Cochabamba in<br />
Bolivia and Skavsta in Sweden. It also has various operating<br />
and management contracts in the United Stat<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The impact of the worldwide fi nancial crisis r<strong>es</strong>ulted<br />
in a 7.7% fall in passenger traffi c mainly owing to signifi<br />
cant declin<strong>es</strong> at United Kingdom airports. Nonethel<strong>es</strong>s,<br />
the strategy of cost containment and inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
mitigated the net r<strong>es</strong>ult although the year-end fi gur<strong>es</strong><br />
show a loss of 1.9 million pounds.<br />
The decrease in traffi c made for a total passenger<br />
throughput of 22.58 million for the group, yet there was<br />
a noteworthy 12.2% increase in passenger throughput<br />
at the three Bolivian airports. The most signifi cant<br />
drops in traffi c were recorded at the UK airports: Luton<br />
(-10.4%), Belfast (-13.3%) and Cardiff (-17.9%). TBI<br />
conducted a major readjustment of inv<strong>es</strong>tment efforts,<br />
which were basically limited to maintenance tasks.<br />
The most notable inv<strong>es</strong>tments were made to replace the<br />
radars at Belfast and Cardiff and to red<strong>es</strong>ign the landside<br />
and airside layout at Belfast in order to increase and<br />
better distribute the shopping on offer at the airport.<br />

3.4. AIR NAVIGATION<br />
The Directorate of Air Navigation is committed to<br />
reaching maximum levels of quality in the servic<strong>es</strong> it<br />
provid<strong>es</strong> by continually improving their effi cacy and<br />
the effi ciency of the system. The operational servic<strong>es</strong><br />
provided are: airspace organization and management,<br />
management of the relation between capacity<br />
and demand, air traffi c control and aeronautical information<br />
for air navigation.<br />
In order to increase effi cacy, it aims to reduce delays<br />
caused by the Spanish air traffi c management system, improve<br />
performance with r<strong>es</strong>pect to the number of operations<br />
during highly demanded periods and tim<strong>es</strong>, in addition<br />
to offering the possibility of selecting preferred rout<strong>es</strong><br />
and optimizing the management of traffi c capacity and<br />
fl ow by meeting user’s real-time operating requirements.<br />
The strategic chang<strong>es</strong> addr<strong>es</strong>sed in 2009, stipulated in<br />
the Air Traffi c Management Action Plan, are as follows:<br />
The organization and management of the airspace<br />
will be structured and managed regardl<strong>es</strong>s of internal<br />
and external organizational borders. The Air<br />
Traffi c Control (ATC) sectors will be d<strong>es</strong>igned according<br />
to demands in air traffi c fl ows, without<br />
the organizational borders entailing limitations as<br />
to the attainment of the b<strong>es</strong>t solutions.<br />
The route d<strong>es</strong>ign and network will be optimized:<br />
the network of rout<strong>es</strong> will be d<strong>es</strong>igned according<br />
to users’ preferenc<strong>es</strong>, and procedur<strong>es</strong> for facilitating<br />
alternativ<strong>es</strong> will also be developed.<br />
ATC work will be optimized through the development<br />
and dynamic application of ATC sector-position<br />
confi gurations for different operating scenarios.<br />
Availability of the entire airspace: the airspace will be<br />
treated as a seaml<strong>es</strong>s r<strong>es</strong>ource available to all users.<br />

In 2009 <strong>Aena</strong>’s strategy was aligned with the guidelin<strong>es</strong><br />
of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport,<br />
using the Strategic Infrastructure and Transport Plan<br />
(Peit) as a basic reference.<br />
In line with this planning framework the general strategic<br />
objectiv<strong>es</strong> are grouped into fi ve strategic management<br />
areas: safety; quality and the environment;<br />
infrastructur<strong>es</strong> and servic<strong>es</strong>; economic effi ciency and<br />
fi nancial viability; and people.
4. SAFETY<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s General Safety Plan sets out all the aspects of<br />
safety in its faciliti<strong>es</strong>, operations and servic<strong>es</strong>.<br />
This General Safety Plan addr<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> means of improving<br />
the three facets of overall safety:<br />
Operational safety and self-protection.<br />
Security of persons and property.<br />
Occupational risk prevention.<br />
With regard to operational safety and self-protection,<br />
measur<strong>es</strong> were taken in the following fi elds:<br />
Safety Management System<br />
During 2009, the Safety Management System (SMS)<br />
was implemented at 11 <strong>Aena</strong> network airports (Ibiza,<br />
Tenerife Sur, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca, Gran Canaria,<br />
Malaga, Alicante, Lanzarote, Madrid-Barajas,<br />
Valencia and Bilbao). The proc<strong>es</strong>s of implementing the<br />
SMS is in its fi nal phase at another 12 airports (Fuerteventura,<br />
Menorca, Girona, Jerez, Santiago, Tenerife<br />
Norte, Seville, Almeria, La Palma, Federico García Lorca<br />
Granada-Jaen, Asturias and Corunna). The defi nition<br />
phase has begun at another 10 airports (Reus, Vigo,<br />
Logroño, Vitoria, Melilla, San Sebastian, Pamplona,<br />
Saragossa, Son Bonet and La Gomera).<br />
From the standpoint of air navigation servic<strong>es</strong>, since the<br />
Safety Management System was put in place in 2006 to<br />
comply with the requirements <strong>es</strong>tablished in the regulatory<br />
framework for providing air navigation servic<strong>es</strong> (EC<br />
no. 550/2004) and the ministerial order of the General<br />
Directorate of Civil Aviation on March 16th 2006 regarding<br />
the attainment of certifi cation for providers of civil air<br />
navigation servic<strong>es</strong> in accordance with the Single European<br />
Sky regulations, throughout 2009 important prog-<br />
r<strong>es</strong>s was made with regard to training. The operational<br />
safety course was given to 1,212 students in order to improve<br />
the mechanisms of raising awaren<strong>es</strong>s about safety;<br />
a new magazine called +Seguridad en <strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong><br />
(More Safety in Air Navigation) was published, and a<br />
website on safety was developed on the Internav (the Air<br />
Navigation intranet). In relation to the ass<strong>es</strong>sment and<br />
handling of safety incidents, the total number of notifi cations<br />
increased, and the majority of th<strong>es</strong>e were in-house<br />
notifi cations. The proc<strong>es</strong>s of risk analysis and mitigation<br />
was virtually consolidated as the documents and forms<br />
needed to expedite this proc<strong>es</strong>s were produced and new<br />
coordination mechanisms were <strong>es</strong>tablished.<br />
Proc<strong>es</strong>s Of Certifying <strong>Aena</strong> Network Airports<br />
As regards the proc<strong>es</strong>s of certifying airports, the following<br />
documents were drafted and sent to the State<br />
Agency for Air Safety (A<strong>es</strong>a) on August 31st 2009 for<br />
their approval:<br />
Programme of action for adapting to the Royal Decree<br />
on Airport Certifi cation.<br />

In relation to the Airport Certifi cation Plan, it is important<br />
to highlight Ibiza Airport’s certifi cation application<br />
in December 2009, which is considered a pilot airport.<br />
Audits by the European Commission and the<br />
State Agency for Air Safety (A<strong>es</strong>a)<br />
It is important to point out that in 2009 the inspections<br />
and audits performed by the European Commission<br />
at the airports of Malaga (in June) and Barcelona<br />
(in December) and the monitoring of Madrid-Barajas<br />
Airport (in September) all had favourable outcom<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Furthermore, <strong>Aena</strong> performed scheduled safety checks<br />
at 24 airports (Albacete, Almeria, Asturias, Badajoz,<br />

to partial unscheduled checks at the different airports<br />
where the pr<strong>es</strong>ence of the Directorate of Airport<br />
Safety was required as a consequence of the need for<br />
operational improvement, implementing procedur<strong>es</strong>,<br />
running t<strong>es</strong>ts, implementing corrective measur<strong>es</strong> and<br />
optimizing the r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> employed for performing<br />
safety servic<strong>es</strong> at the airports.<br />
Concerning the security of persons and property,<br />
the following measur<strong>es</strong> were taken:<br />
Inv<strong>es</strong>tments in security equipment<br />
As regards security equipment, in June 2009 operations<br />
began succ<strong>es</strong>sfully at Barcelona’s new Terminal 1,<br />
with state-of-the-art screening equipment for passengers<br />
and employe<strong>es</strong>, as well as for hand luggage and<br />
luggage to be stowed in holds. In this direction, during<br />
2009 equipment was installed in Malaga Airport’s new<br />
Terminal 3 both at passenger and employee checkpoints<br />
(14 walkthrough metal detectors and 22 x-ray<br />
devic<strong>es</strong>) and for the hold luggage screening system (13<br />
new machin<strong>es</strong> for detecting explosiv<strong>es</strong>—EDS—, 2 tomography<br />
machin<strong>es</strong> and 5 x-ray apparatus<strong>es</strong>).<br />
Furthermore, apart from th<strong>es</strong>e major expansions,<br />
the renovation of equipment in various network airports<br />
continued and new needs were met. Following<br />
up with the progr<strong>es</strong>sive incorporation of new equipment,<br />
shoe metal detectors continued to be installed.<br />
In 2009 they were installed in Madrid-Barajas and Barcelona<br />
airports, in addition to those already installed in<br />
Palma de Mallorca Airport. The tendering proc<strong>es</strong>s was<br />
underway for installing them in the r<strong>es</strong>t of the network<br />
airports, thus improving the passenger screening<br />
proc<strong>es</strong>s.<br />

In 2009 the private security service was put out to tender<br />
and awarded in accordance with the new quality<br />
criteria defi ned in the new model for the provision of<br />
private security at the 43 network airports.<br />
Physical security of the air navigation system<br />
One of the main objectiv<strong>es</strong> of security is to ensure the<br />
protection of the persons, infrastructur<strong>es</strong>, technical faciliti<strong>es</strong><br />
and data involved in air navigation. Therefore,<br />
the following measur<strong>es</strong> were taken to improve the<br />
proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> of managing physical security:<br />
The human r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> of physical security were optimized<br />
by installing security systems that, without<br />
increasing the level of risk to the faciliti<strong>es</strong>, reduce<br />
the cost of security personnel. Specifi cally, in<br />
2009 the following reductions were made: 1H9 in<br />
Menorca, 1H24 in Gran Canaria, 1H24 in MGA radar<br />
of Malaga and 2H24 in the Southern Region<br />
ACC and C.R. el Judío.<br />
At the same time, detection systems were installed<br />
by implementing the use of Air Navigation credentials<br />
wherever nec<strong>es</strong>sary.<br />
Among the most noteworthy actions taken in the area<br />
of occupational risk prevention is the attainment of an<br />
overall incident rate at <strong>Aena</strong> (the number of accidents<br />
per thousand workers) of 9.28, which entails an 8.4%<br />
reduction from 2008.<br />
Similarly, the objectiv<strong>es</strong> set out in 2009 regarding the<br />
number of risk ass<strong>es</strong>sments and medical check-ups were<br />
accomplished as, r<strong>es</strong>pectively, 22.7% and 0.2% more<br />
were performed than in 2008, whereas 26,213 hours of<br />
workplace risk prevention training were given at <strong>Aena</strong>.
5. QUALITY AND THE<br />
ENVIRONMENT<br />
5.1. QUALITY<br />
In the sphere of quality the following r<strong>es</strong>ults were obtained<br />
in the year 2009:<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s corporate units adapted the proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> of<br />
certifi cation of the quality system pursuant to the<br />
UNE-EN ISO 9001:2008 standards. Currently, 43<br />
airports also boast certifi cation updated to the<br />
2008 standards and the Directorate of Air Navigation<br />
projects its adaptation to th<strong>es</strong>e standards in<br />
April 2010, encompassing all the regional directorat<strong>es</strong><br />
of air navigation.<br />
On the subject of training, a total of 46 people<br />
were given cours<strong>es</strong> in order to comply with the r<strong>es</strong>pective<br />
regulations as well as to guarantee more<br />
effi cient and prof<strong>es</strong>sional management. To this<br />
end, <strong>Aena</strong> counted on the collaboration of Aenor,<br />
the Club for Excellence in Management and<br />
the Spanish Quality Association. Classroom, online<br />
and distance cours<strong>es</strong> were given, as were some<br />
personalized cours<strong>es</strong> in exceptional cas<strong>es</strong>.<br />
With r<strong>es</strong>pect to using the management framework<br />
of the European Foundation for Quality Management<br />
(EFQM), during the fi nancial year 2009 self-ass<strong>es</strong>sments<br />
were carried out at the airports of Madrid-Barajas,<br />
Seville and Saragossa. Saragossa Airport submitted<br />
an entry for the Award for Entrepreneurial Excellence<br />
in Aragon, and was selected as a fi nalist in the group<br />
of large compani<strong>es</strong>, earning over 300 points that could<br />
be equated the following year to a 300+ Seal and its<br />
correlative Recognised for excellence 3 stars.<br />
In the area of Corporate Social R<strong>es</strong>ponsibility, in<br />
November 2009 the Board of Directors of <strong>Aena</strong><br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
approved the Corporate Social R<strong>es</strong>ponsibility Policy<br />
and Strategy, which propos<strong>es</strong> a four-phase deployment.<br />
Worthy of mention in this regard is the<br />
drafting of <strong>Aena</strong>’s Corporate Social R<strong>es</strong>ponsibility<br />
Report for the fi nancial year 2008, following the<br />
Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelin<strong>es</strong> for Sustainability<br />
Reporting (version 3.0) of October 2006.<br />
In this manner, in its CSR Report 2008, <strong>Aena</strong> decided<br />
to follow application level B of the GRI recommendations,<br />
as the Global Reporting Initiative had<br />
declared this level of application.<br />
In the area of R&D&I management, th<strong>es</strong>e activiti<strong>es</strong><br />
are monitored through periodic reports of their<br />
level of execution. One improvement in <strong>Aena</strong>’s innovation<br />
management that was identifi ed by the<br />
ass<strong>es</strong>sment conducted was the perfection of the<br />
technological and innovation management strategy<br />
with the defi nitive inclusion of a set of indicators<br />
that enable measuring the accomplishment<br />
of <strong>Aena</strong>’s R&D&I objectiv<strong>es</strong>. At <strong>Aena</strong>, this broadreaching<br />
approach to innovation materializ<strong>es</strong> in<br />
numerous projects, among which the following<br />
are most noteworthy:<br />
- In the sphere of air navigation: the S<strong>es</strong>ar programme<br />
for the development and implementation<br />
of the Single European Sky concept, the<br />
Egnos and Galileo projects for the improvement<br />
of satellite navigation and the Sacta programme<br />
for the automation of air traffi c systems.<br />
- Among the outstanding actions in the sphere<br />
of airports are the implementation of integrated<br />
systems at airport management centr<strong>es</strong> and<br />
the automated baggage handling systems.<br />
- In more general areas, <strong>Aena</strong> conducts innovative<br />
activiti<strong>es</strong> such as the satellite ortho-imaging<br />
airport information system (Saos), or, in<br />
the realm of energy effi ciency, projects geared<br />
Annual report 2009 277

Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
toward rationalizing energy consumption and<br />
using renewable energi<strong>es</strong>. It also undertak<strong>es</strong><br />
projects d<strong>es</strong>igned to improve security of persons<br />
and faciliti<strong>es</strong> through innovative information<br />
technologi<strong>es</strong> and it carri<strong>es</strong> out plans to facilitate<br />
information and special servic<strong>es</strong> to persons<br />
with reduced mobility.<br />
- As a r<strong>es</strong>ult of <strong>Aena</strong>’s efforts to foster R&D&I<br />
projects, it is important to underscore the progr<strong>es</strong>sive<br />
start-up during 2009 of its benchmark<br />
ATM R&D&I centre (Crida), created in 2008 for<br />
the purpose of developing, identifying and analyzing<br />
new air traffi c management procedur<strong>es</strong><br />
and systems.<br />
Pertaining to <strong>Aena</strong>’s close collaboration with associations<br />
and organizations promoting excellence in busin<strong>es</strong>s<br />
management, it is worth mentioning the pr<strong>es</strong>ence<br />
of <strong>Aena</strong> experts as evaluators for the award for<br />
excellence in public management, promoted by the<br />
Agency for Evaluation and Quality (Aeval) attached to<br />
the Spanish Ministry of the Pr<strong>es</strong>idency.<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> has also provided different forms of support for<br />
the Excellence in Management Club such as organizing<br />
the annual forum for excellence in management or<br />
evaluating organizations that submit entri<strong>es</strong> for seals<br />
of excellence in the 500+ points category.<br />
5.2. ENVIRONMENT<br />
During the year 2009 the following actions were undertaken<br />
in relation to environmental protection, a<br />
strategic objective of <strong>Aena</strong> which is integrated at all<br />
operational levels.<br />
Environmental certifi cation<br />
With r<strong>es</strong>pect to environmental certifi cation in accor-<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
dance with the UNE-EN ISO 14001:2004 standards, all<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> network airports are certifi ed, as are the Directorate<br />
of Air Navigation and its fi ve regional directorat<strong>es</strong>,<br />
the Directorate of Spanish Airports and the Central<br />
Servic<strong>es</strong> of the corporate units.<br />
Sound insulation plans<br />
During 2009, <strong>Aena</strong> sound-proofed 697 hom<strong>es</strong> included<br />
in the sound insulation plans of Madrid-Barajas, Alicante,<br />
Malaga, Palma de Mallorca, Valencia, Tenerife<br />
Norte and Gran Canaria airports.<br />
Similarly, the sound insulation plans for Pamplona,<br />
Santiago and Bilbao airports began to be executed.<br />
Following the ruling on April 29th 2009 of the Ministry<br />
of the Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs<br />
whereby it formulated the environmental impact statement<br />
in relation to the project for the expansion of Bilbao<br />
Airport, and as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the regulatory framework<br />
of Law 372003 on Noise, the scope of the sound insulation<br />
plans corr<strong>es</strong>ponding to <strong>Aena</strong> network airports,<br />
whose rulings were published past that date, have been<br />
defi ned by the following noise levels: Ld 60 decibels<br />
(A) (7:00-19:00 hours), Le 60 decibels (A) (19:00-23:00<br />
hours) and Ln 50 decibels (A) (19:00-23:00 hours). This<br />
criterion was applied at the airports of Sabadell, Menorca,<br />
Ibiza, Vigo and Gran Canaria, in addition to Bilbao<br />
Airport, and it is projected that in future environmental<br />
impact statements that are formulated by the abovementioned<br />
ministry this is the range to be <strong>es</strong>tablished for<br />
the execution of corr<strong>es</strong>ponding sound insulation plans.<br />
Ass<strong>es</strong>sment of the environmental impact<br />
of projects and strategic environmental<br />
ass<strong>es</strong>sment of planning tools<br />
During 2009 the environmental management statements<br />
(EMS) were obtained for the airport expansion projects in<br />
Cordoba (runway extension), Bilbao, Ibiza, Gran Canaria,
Menorca and Logroño, as well as the environmental rulings<br />
on the infrastructure projects at Gran Canaria, Leon,<br />
Malaga, Murcia, Sabadell, Valencia and Vigo. Similarly,<br />
the corr<strong>es</strong>ponding reports refl ecting compliance with the<br />
conditions <strong>es</strong>tablished in the environmental impact statements<br />
(EMS info) were drafted and proc<strong>es</strong>sed.<br />
On the topic of monitoring and overseeing actions derived<br />
from the environmental impact statements a replacement<br />
programme was put in place for on-apron<br />
support vehicl<strong>es</strong> at Palma de Mallorca Airport.<br />
With regard to the strategic ass<strong>es</strong>sment of planning<br />
tools, in collaboration with the Ministry of the Environment<br />
and Rural and Marine Affairs, the environmental<br />
reports were drafted for the proposed revision of<br />
the master plans of the airports Federico García Lorca<br />
Granada-Jaen, Ibiza, Menorca, Palma de Mallorca,<br />
Pamplona, Santander, Valencia and Vigo, and the offi<br />
cial environmental procedur<strong>es</strong> were initiated for the<br />
proposed revision of the master plans of Alicante, Cordoba<br />
and Son Bonet airports.<br />
Sound and air ass<strong>es</strong>sments<br />
On the subject of managing the noise pollution in the<br />
airport surroundings it is fi tting to highlight the sound<br />
ass<strong>es</strong>sment undertaken with a view to removing the<br />
aircraft that only marginally comply with requirements<br />
at Barcelona Airport, and the installation of a noise<br />
and fl ight path monitoring system at Valencia Airport.<br />
In a different direction, a public notice was placed for<br />
60 days starting December 9th 2008 regarding the updating<br />
of the strategic noise maps of the airports of Barcelona,<br />
Madrid-Barajas and Valencia. Furthermore, the<br />
sound footprints continued to be determined by the<br />
environmental impact studi<strong>es</strong> and environmental documents,<br />
as were those of the master plans undertaken<br />
during 2009. The revision of the sound footprints of the<br />
Saragossa Airport master plan was also carried out and<br />
is currently undergoing the approval proc<strong>es</strong>s.<br />
As regards air ass<strong>es</strong>sments, air quality control and<br />
monitoring programm<strong>es</strong> were drawn up for Gran Canaria<br />
and Reus airports.<br />
Characterization and management of soil<br />
In 2009, following up on work of previous years, further<br />
steps were taken to decontaminate soil at Palma<br />
de Mallorca Airport, and several plots of land were certifi<br />
ed at Burgos and Valencia airports.<br />
Moreover, analytical controls were run at the piezometric<br />
monitoring network at the airports of Almeria,<br />
Asturias, Badajoz, Bilbao, Burgos, Madrid-Cuatro<br />
Vientos, Gran Canaria, Malaga, Salamanca, Seville and<br />
Vigo, and the piezometric monitoring network at Palma<br />
de Mallorca Airport was expanded.<br />
Renewable energy<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
The feasibility plan was drawn up for the implementation<br />
of renewable energy technologi<strong>es</strong> at Madrid-Barajas<br />
Airport. It was intended that this study be <strong>es</strong>pecially<br />
practical and it was therefore focused on the systems<br />
based on photovoltaic solar energy, thermal solar energy<br />
and wind energy. In all the studi<strong>es</strong> carried out to date it<br />
has been taken into account that the main activity of the<br />
airports are airport operations and air traffi c, which may<br />
to some extent condition the implementation of systems<br />
based on certain renewable energy technologi<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The preliminary feasibility report was drawn up on<br />
wind turbine systems for Gran Canaria Airport. It enumerat<strong>es</strong><br />
different small-sized wind turbine options in<br />
addition to new options for the distribution of wind<br />
energy systems.<br />
A proposal of intentions was drafted in preparation of a<br />
feasibility study of electrical vehicl<strong>es</strong> on airport premis<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Annual report 2009 279

Management Report<br />
The aim is to study the operability of a 100% electrical<br />
vehicle in the airport environment. This evolved into an<br />
implementation plan for 2010 divided into two phas<strong>es</strong><br />
in which the initial studi<strong>es</strong> and t<strong>es</strong>ts will be performed.<br />
On the topic of energy effi ciency, energy studi<strong>es</strong> were<br />
carried out at the terminal buildings of Logroño, Valladolid<br />
and Salamanca airports and the north pier building-Terminal<br />
3 of Madrid-Barajas Airport. The <strong>Aena</strong><br />
headquarters building, located on Arturo Soria street<br />
in Madrid, was also analyzed. In all of th<strong>es</strong>e plac<strong>es</strong> diverse<br />
energy-saving measur<strong>es</strong> were determined and will<br />
be implemented as funding for them becom<strong>es</strong> available.<br />
Each building study includ<strong>es</strong> the building’s energy rating,<br />
and it is checked whether it compli<strong>es</strong> with the<br />
Technical Building Code, <strong>es</strong>pecially with regard to the<br />
HE-1 energy demand limitation. Moreover, projects<br />
were reviewed to determine whether they are drafted<br />
in compliance with the building code.<br />
6. INFRASTRUCTURES<br />
6.1. INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING<br />
In 2009 the proc<strong>es</strong>s of reviewing and updating the master<br />
plans of the <strong>Aena</strong> network airports continued and<br />
proposals for new master plans were drafted for the airports<br />
of Fuerteventura, La Palma, Seville and El Hierro.<br />
As for the special plans, initial approval was achieved<br />
of the special plans for the airports of Seville and Malaga.<br />
Collaboration with the diverse public administrations<br />
was continued in order to achieve defi nitive<br />
approval of the remaining special airport plans that<br />
are currently being proc<strong>es</strong>sed. Furthermore, and for<br />
the purpose of being able to initiate procedur<strong>es</strong> once<br />
approval of the master plans has been obtained, the<br />
corr<strong>es</strong>ponding special plans were prepared for the air-<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
ports of Granada-Jaen, Menorca, Vigo, Alicante, Bilbao<br />
and Cordoba. Similarly, and in order to achieve the<br />
integration of the airports into the landscape, the corr<strong>es</strong>ponding<br />
development reports were prepared.<br />
Proposals were drafted for the aeronautical easements<br />
of Alicante, Reus, Bilbao, Vitoria, Son Bonet and Palma<br />
de Mallorca airports, as well as for the Randa transmitter<br />
centre; NDB Porto Colom, VOR-DME Pollensa, NDB<br />
Andratx, VOR-DME Mallorca, VOR-DME Capdepera and<br />
Soller Control Centre. Upon requ<strong>es</strong>t of the DGAC multiple<br />
feasibility reports were drawn up for the urban developments<br />
in areas affected by aeronautical easements.<br />
A new module of the Sigra system was developed and<br />
implemented for the generation of property information<br />
at the 47 network airports and within the Sigra<br />
system, a new module was implemented for proc<strong>es</strong>sing<br />
sewage and waterworks network at the airports of<br />
Gran Canaria, Tenerife Norte and Tenerife Sur.<br />
Cartography was produced for the airports of Reus,<br />
Barcelona, Bilbao, Girona, Vitoria, Burgos, Gan Canaria,<br />
Melilla, Almeria, Malaga, Cordoba and Lanzarote,<br />
in addition to Vejer (VOR) so as to be able to calculate<br />
the airport and radio-electrical easements.<br />
The Airport Topographical Control Network (RCTA)<br />
was implemented at the airports where construction<br />
took place.<br />
Lastly, the fi ve-year review was completed of the master<br />
plans for the 12 Mexican airports, and th<strong>es</strong>e master<br />
plans were approved by the Mexican airport authority<br />
in December 2009.<br />
6.2. INFRASTRUCTURES<br />
The objectiv<strong>es</strong> associated with the core infrastructur<strong>es</strong><br />
and servic<strong>es</strong> are:
To adapt supply to demand for servic<strong>es</strong><br />
To improve infrastructure maintenance and upkeep<br />
To optimize proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> and foster technological innovation<br />
In short, they aim to create and develop airport and air<br />
navigation infrastructur<strong>es</strong> capacitated to succ<strong>es</strong>sfully serve<br />
the growth in traffi c anticipated for the coming years.<br />
Properly adjusting supply to the requirements and demands<br />
of all customers and users of the <strong>Aena</strong> network<br />
entails the expansion, modernization and upgrading<br />
of airport faciliti<strong>es</strong>. To this end, in 2009 projects continued<br />
to be drafted and the planned construction<br />
work and installations were executed, contributing to<br />
the improvement of quality, increasing environmental<br />
sustainability, maintaining high levels of occupational<br />
risk prevention and safeguarding the security of persons<br />
and property. All this was carried out while keeping<br />
in mind technical and economical effi ciency, in<br />
accordance with the legislation in force, and complying<br />
with all the applicable standards and guidelin<strong>es</strong>:<br />
Safety and prevention; conditions favourable<br />
to risk prevention continued to be reinforced<br />
throughout the phas<strong>es</strong> of construction, from<br />
writing up projects to executing construction work,<br />
and during the tendering proc<strong>es</strong>s contractors were<br />
informed of <strong>Aena</strong>’s preventative criteria and the<br />
legislation in force regarding minimal health and<br />
safety requirements for construction projects.<br />
Quality assurance; the activiti<strong>es</strong> related to the<br />
development and monitoring of the quality<br />
management system were directed, supervised<br />
and coordinated for infrastructure management,<br />
and the activiti<strong>es</strong> related to performing technical<br />
audits of the construction projects assigned to<br />
Management were conducted.<br />
Environment; the actions needed to carry out the<br />
different studi<strong>es</strong>, projects and reports stipulated<br />
in the environmental impact reports were<br />
undertaken and the environmental controls from<br />
the planning phase to project completion were<br />
effectuated; the different environmental activiti<strong>es</strong><br />
derived from the execution of construction were<br />
directed and coordinated and <strong>Aena</strong> management<br />
collaborated with the DPI to prepare and proc<strong>es</strong>s<br />
the Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) for the<br />
construction projects it was assigned.<br />
The specifi c units in charge of the special airport<br />
plans, those involving the development and execution<br />
of the infrastructur<strong>es</strong> needed for the expansion<br />
of the airports of Barcelona (Barcelona Plan), Malaga<br />
(Malaga Plan), and Alicante and Valencia (Levante<br />
Plan), continued to make substantial progr<strong>es</strong>s<br />
on th<strong>es</strong>e projects and on the scheduled construction<br />
that contribut<strong>es</strong> to modernizing and upgrading the<br />
faciliti<strong>es</strong> in anticipation of future demands, in addition<br />
to improving society’s perceived image of the<br />
airports.<br />

Management Report<br />
From the standpoint of demand, during 2009 the service<br />
was provided 1,120,000 tim<strong>es</strong> throughout <strong>Aena</strong>’s<br />
network airports, generally receiving very positive ratings<br />
from PRM.<br />
7.2. 7.2. MODIFICATIONS OF<br />
OPERATING HOURS<br />
During 2009 the operating hours of Burgos and Valladolid<br />
airports were modifi ed. Since January 2009 the<br />
operating hours of Burgos Airport ceased to be from<br />
06:00 hours to dusk in summer and from 07:00 hours<br />
to dusk in winter, and were changed to 06:00 to 17:00<br />
in summer and from 07:00 to 18:00 in winter. Valladolid<br />
Airport, whose operating hours in summer are from<br />
05:00 to 08:30 and from 06:00 to 21:300 in winter,<br />
may now be authorized 2 hours PPR all year long.<br />
7.3. AIRPORT MARKETING<br />
With regard to airport marketing, progr<strong>es</strong>s was made<br />
in one of the most important areas of this fi eld: drawing<br />
up marketing plans. Marketing plans consist of an<br />
external, internal and market study of the airports in<br />
qu<strong>es</strong>tion and their regions in order to determine their<br />
potential. In 2009, the marketing plans were drafted<br />
for seven airports: Fuerteventura, Girona, Ibiza, Lanzarote,<br />
La Palma, Menorca and Reus.<br />
In relation to market r<strong>es</strong>earch, a fundamental tool for<br />
analyzing market trends and opportuniti<strong>es</strong>, the Emma<br />
offi ce has carried out more than 75,000 surveys<br />
at 4 Spanish airports (Barcelona, Ibiza, Madrid-Barajas<br />
and Palma de Mallorca). In addition to studying our<br />
airports, the airport marketing unit organized meetings<br />
with a large number of airlin<strong>es</strong> and local agents<br />
for the purpose of proposing new rout<strong>es</strong>. In the year<br />
2009 three international forums were attended: Fitur,<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
Rout<strong>es</strong> Europe and World Rout<strong>es</strong>, and the IATA slots<br />
conferenc<strong>es</strong>.<br />
7.4. OPENING TERMINAL 1 OF<br />
BARCELONA AIRPORT<br />
On June 17th 2009 the Star Alliance airlin<strong>es</strong> relocated<br />
to the new Terminal 1 (Phase 1). On September<br />
9th 2009 Oneworld Alliance, Vueling and Air Nostrum<br />
airlin<strong>es</strong> relocated to the T1 (Phase 2); and on October<br />
25th 2009 the Sky Team airlin<strong>es</strong> relocated to the<br />
T1, thus completing the third and last phase. All th<strong>es</strong>e<br />
phas<strong>es</strong> took place without incident.<br />
7.5. ACTIONS RELATED TO<br />
THE NEW TERMINAL 3 BUILDING<br />
OF MALAGA AIRPORT<br />
In the month of December performance t<strong>es</strong>ts were run<br />
in anticipation of the opening of Malaga Airport’s new<br />
Terminal 3 building.<br />
7.6. ACTIONS RELATED TO<br />
THE NEW TERMINAL BUILDING<br />
AT ALICANTE AIRPORT<br />
All the major contracts related to this expansion have<br />
been awarded and the projects are underway. The new<br />
terminal building is slated to open in early 2011, and<br />
a 3-month period for performance t<strong>es</strong>ting will follow.<br />
7.7. OTHER SERVICES LAUNCHED<br />
IN 2009<br />
In 2009 servic<strong>es</strong> were launched in the terminal building<br />
expansions at various airports:
Almeria Airport: On June 30th 2009 the expansion<br />
of the departur<strong>es</strong> terminal was opened (Phase 1).<br />
Badajoz Airport: On July 31st 2009 the expansion<br />
of the arrivals terminal was opened (Phase 1).<br />
Fuerteventura Airport: On November 9th 2009 the expansion<br />
of the new arrivals area was opened (Phase 1).<br />
8. ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY<br />
AND FINANCIAL VIABILITY<br />
The objectiv<strong>es</strong> related to the economic area are to increase<br />
revenue, reduce costs and control debt, which<br />
sum up the main economic and fi nancial aspects of<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s management.<br />
The fundamental principle behind the fi nancial policy of<br />
the Grupo <strong>Aena</strong> compani<strong>es</strong> is based on centralizing this<br />
policy at the Directorate of Administration and Finance<br />
so that all fi nancial liabiliti<strong>es</strong> and assets may be contracted<br />
and managed from that directorate, except for those<br />
of Ineco, which determin<strong>es</strong> its own fi nance polici<strong>es</strong>. The<br />
main fi nancial risks are enumerated below:<br />
a) Inter<strong>es</strong>t rate risk<br />
In order to manage inter<strong>es</strong>t rate risk <strong>Aena</strong> aims to optimize<br />
fi nancial expenditur<strong>es</strong> within the <strong>es</strong>tablished risk limits.<br />
The Public Company do<strong>es</strong> not usually undertake busin<strong>es</strong>s<br />
transactions in currenci<strong>es</strong> other than the Euro (unlike subsidiari<strong>es</strong><br />
such as <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional and Ineco),<br />
so the fi nancial expenditure risk is concentrated in the inter<strong>es</strong>t<br />
rate risk in the case of the parent company, the risk<br />
variabl<strong>es</strong> being three-month Euribor (used for long-term<br />
debt) and one-month Euribor (used in loan agreements).<br />
Additionally, the risk value of fi nancial expenditure is<br />
calculated with a view to the Multianual Action Plan<br />
and scenarios of inter<strong>es</strong>t rate fl uctuations are <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
for the period under consideration. In the fi -<br />
nancial year 2009 the Group engaged in inter<strong>es</strong>t rate<br />
hedging transactions.<br />
b) Liquidity risk<br />
The main risk variabl<strong>es</strong> are: limitations of fi nance markets,<br />
increase in projected inv<strong>es</strong>tments, and reduction<br />
in cash-fl ow creation.<br />
In order to maintain suffi cient liquidity to meet the<br />
fi nancial needs of at least twelve months, a longterm<br />
fi nancing policy was <strong>es</strong>tablished by entering into<br />
framework agreements or similar agreements with<br />
organizations such as the Offi cial Credit Institute and<br />
the European Inv<strong>es</strong>tment Bank, in addition to securing<br />
short and medium-term credit lin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Also, to be able to honour all the payment commitments<br />
derived from its operations, subsidiari<strong>es</strong> such as <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo<br />
Internacional have cash equivalents, short-term deposits<br />
recorded under the heading “Short-term fi nancial<br />
inv<strong>es</strong>tments – Other fi nancial assets”, and several credit<br />
lin<strong>es</strong>, for solving any liquidity problem that might arise.<br />
Risk management focus<strong>es</strong> on the detailed monitoring<br />
of the Group’s fi nancial debt maturity calendar, as well<br />
as the proactive management and maintenance of credit<br />
lin<strong>es</strong> that enable meeting predicted needs for liquidity.<br />
Lastly, the Group systematically performs cash fl ow<br />
forecasts for the purpose of ass<strong>es</strong>sing the needs for<br />
cash equivalents. This liquidity policy ensur<strong>es</strong> fulfi lment<br />
of acquired payment commitments without the<br />
need to r<strong>es</strong>ort to obtaining funds in costly conditions,<br />
which enabl<strong>es</strong> maintaining continual liquidity.<br />

party, so <strong>Aena</strong> aims to focus on minimizing the risk of<br />
default by the counterparti<strong>es</strong> without price penalization.<br />
The parent company keeps its cash and liquid assets<br />
at fi nancial institutions with high credit ratings. In<br />
the fi nancial year 2009, the parent company engaged<br />
in derivativ<strong>es</strong> transactions.<br />
d) Exchange rate risk<br />
The subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional is subject<br />
to fl uctuations in exchange rat<strong>es</strong> that may affect<br />
its sal<strong>es</strong>, income, equity and cash fl ow. Therefore, the<br />
company has a fi nancial hedging instrument for cash<br />
fl ows affected by variations in exchange rat<strong>es</strong>.<br />
8.1 CONTROL MEASURES<br />
AND COST REDUCTIONS<br />
Directorate of spanish airports<br />
The plans put in place in 2008 to optimize and reduce<br />
costs were carried on in 2009, leading to a savings of<br />
more than 36 million euros with r<strong>es</strong>pect to the initial<br />
2009 budget. The reduction applied to virtually all areas<br />
of expenditure, with special impact on the items<br />
of repair and conservation, cleaning, energy, private<br />
security, technical support, communications, publicity<br />
and parking management.<br />
Noteworthy among the measur<strong>es</strong> taken was the introduction<br />
of the concept of variable spending depending<br />
on traffi c, negotiating economic conditions with service<br />
providers, polici<strong>es</strong> for optimizing r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong>, postponing<br />
non-<strong>es</strong>sential actions and greater control of fi xed costs.<br />
Directorate of Air Navigation<br />
An objective of Air Navigation is to improve its economic<br />
effi ciency and fi nancial viability. In 2009 ac-<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
tions were carried out to this end in the following<br />
areas:<br />
Promotion of better practic<strong>es</strong> and cost containment<br />
plan: guidelin<strong>es</strong> were <strong>es</strong>tablished in Coena<br />
and a fi rst step was taken to prepare the PO 2010;<br />
nonethel<strong>es</strong>s, more progr<strong>es</strong>s is projected for 2010.<br />
Establishment of measur<strong>es</strong> for cost reduction:<br />
guidelin<strong>es</strong> were <strong>es</strong>tablished in Coena, and a fi rst<br />
step was taken to prepare the PO 2010; nonethel<strong>es</strong>s,<br />
more progr<strong>es</strong>s is projected for 2010.<br />
Implementation of new rul<strong>es</strong> and model for airport<br />
charg<strong>es</strong>: unitary pric<strong>es</strong> and rat<strong>es</strong> formula were<br />
changed in the Law on Budgets for 2010.<br />
Adaptation of costs model and billing system to the<br />
new environment which includ<strong>es</strong> private airports,<br />
and separation of accounts of <strong>Aena</strong> units: this is a<br />
continual proc<strong>es</strong>s for which, in 2009, systems were<br />
adapted and the Costneg tool was developed.<br />
8.2. DISCOUNT IN RATES<br />
In order to support the air transport industry and favour<br />
tourism, the government <strong>es</strong>tablished the following<br />
discounts in airport charg<strong>es</strong>:<br />
1. A 100% discount in the payment of passenger<br />
charg<strong>es</strong> for airlin<strong>es</strong> that in the second sem<strong>es</strong>ter of<br />
2009 carried more passengers than in the same<br />
sem<strong>es</strong>ter the previous year, throughout <strong>Aena</strong><br />
2. Increase from 15% to 30% on the islander discounts<br />
for mainland fl ights in landing, passenger<br />
and security charg<strong>es</strong>, in the Canary Islands, Balearic<br />
Islands and Melilla, from July 1st to December<br />
31st 2009
3. Also, as of October 25th 2009 a new 50% discount<br />
was applied to landing and passenger<br />
charg<strong>es</strong> on European Community and international<br />
fl ights, during off-peak days of the week<br />
at all Canary Island airports. This measure is d<strong>es</strong>igned<br />
to capture air traffi c not originating in the<br />
Canary Islands, particularly European Community<br />
and international passengers.<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e discounts on airport charg<strong>es</strong> entailed 23.6 million<br />
euros l<strong>es</strong>s revenue for <strong>Aena</strong>.<br />
8.3. INCOME FROM SALES<br />
In the month of June 2009, as part of the organizational<br />
modifi cations enacted and for the purpose of<br />
boosting retail activity and income, the Directorate of<br />
Commercial Spac<strong>es</strong> and Servic<strong>es</strong> was integrated into<br />
the Directorate of Spanish Airports.<br />
The following are the most outstanding actions carried<br />
out in 2009 with regard to retail infrastructure development:<br />
Barcelona Airport’s new Terminal 1 was launched<br />
in June 2009 opening a shopping area of approximately<br />
26,000 m2: 8,427 m2 for dining,<br />
6,459 m2 for shops, 1.992 m2 for duty-free<br />
shops, 6,605 m2 for VIP loung<strong>es</strong>, 2,583 m2 for<br />
the Busin<strong>es</strong>s Centre, 5 car hire points and a VIP<br />
car park.<br />
The shopping area of Fuerteventura Airport was<br />
remodelled in April 2009: 11 new retail outlets in<br />
2,000 m2 of new shopping space.<br />
The fi rst phase of the remodelling of Ibiza Airport’s<br />
shopping are was completed in May 2009: 8 new<br />
retail outlets in nearly 1,000 m2 of newly renovated<br />
shopping space.<br />
Construction at Malaga Airport, pertaining to the<br />
opening of the New Terminal Area, projected for<br />
March 2010<br />
In May 2009 a property assignment contract was<br />
signed with C<strong>es</strong>sna for a 61,805 m2 plot at Valencia<br />
Airport (34,589 m2 of land zoned for development<br />
and 27.216 m2 of paved surface).<br />
The development of an industrial area at Jerez<br />
Airport for the installation of aeronautical compani<strong>es</strong><br />
began in July 2009 with the assignment<br />
of 15,000 m2 to the company Atlántica Composite<br />
S.A.<br />
In 2009 <strong>Aena</strong>’s income from sal<strong>es</strong> decreased by 5.7%<br />
from the previous year (34.78 million euros l<strong>es</strong>s), totalling<br />
572.23 million euros. Considering the fact that<br />
traffi c fell by 8% in 2009, the sal<strong>es</strong> revenue per passenger<br />
ratio was 3.08 euros, which entailed a 2.52%<br />
increase over the previous year.<br />
In general terms, it is important to underscore the contribution<br />
of the 2009 sal<strong>es</strong> revenu<strong>es</strong> of the network’s<br />
seven major airports (Madrid-Barajas, 26.7%; Barcelona,<br />
17.5%; Palma de Mallorca, 8%; Malaga, 7.8%;<br />
Alicante, 5.7%; Tenerife Sur, 4.6% and Gran Canaria,<br />
4.4%), which entailed almost 75% of the total.<br />
Moreover, the proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> and procedur<strong>es</strong> conducted by<br />
airport managers to control busin<strong>es</strong>s income were redefi<br />
ned. This action allows improving the control and<br />
monitoring of retail activity.<br />
9. PEOPLE<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
Since people are the organization’s great<strong>es</strong>t asset, <strong>Aena</strong>’s<br />
basic objectiv<strong>es</strong> in this area are as follows: to improve<br />
personal development; to increase personal mo-<br />
Annual report 2009 285
286<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
tivation and satisfaction; to increase safety through occupational<br />
risk prevention; to improve administrative<br />
procedur<strong>es</strong> and management control in the human r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong><br />
area and to automate the human r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong><br />
management systems.<br />
Signifi cant events in 2009 included the negotiation<br />
and eventual signing on July 17th 2009 of <strong>Aena</strong>’s 5th<br />
collective bargaining agreement, which will be in force<br />
until December 31st 2014. The principal novel featur<strong>es</strong><br />
of this agreement are:<br />
Standardization of the internal and external selection<br />
proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Inclusion of a clause for application to the organizations<br />
that may be created in future, in anticipation<br />
of <strong>Aena</strong>’s new management model.<br />
D<strong>es</strong>cription of an equality plan and new measur<strong>es</strong><br />
for work and family balance.<br />
9.1 STAFF<br />
<strong>Aena</strong>’s permanent staff on December 31st 2009<br />
consisted of 11,493 workers, 6,749 of whom belong<br />
to Airports, 4,145 to Air Navigation (2,357<br />
controllers) and 599 to Corporate Units. The public<br />
employment offer approved by <strong>Aena</strong> in 2009 comprised<br />
185 jobs, covering 100% of fire-fighting service<br />
and air traffic controller vacanci<strong>es</strong> since it is<br />
considered that th<strong>es</strong>e jobs directly affect aviation<br />
safety, and 30% of vacanci<strong>es</strong> in the remaining collectiv<strong>es</strong>,<br />
as is required in the Law on General State<br />
Budgets for 2009. Moreover, 13 jobs were r<strong>es</strong>erved<br />
for disabled persons, in keeping with the measur<strong>es</strong><br />
aimed at integrating persons with disabiliti<strong>es</strong> according<br />
to the terms of the provisions of article 59<br />
of Law 7/2007 of the Public Employment Statute,<br />
of April 12 th .<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
9.2. RECRUITMENT<br />
The main actions carried out consisted in posting job<br />
openings for university graduat<strong>es</strong> and non-graduat<strong>es</strong><br />
at different workplac<strong>es</strong> to be fi lled through external<br />
recruitment or in-house staff members. Specifi cally,<br />
256 job openings were posted for university graduat<strong>es</strong><br />
and 705 for non-graduat<strong>es</strong>.<br />
9.3. HUMAN RESOURCES<br />
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS<br />
The following noteworthy improvements were implemented:<br />
Decentralization of the Social Security contributions<br />
at the airports.<br />
Integration between SAP and RED of the needed<br />
functions for online reporting to Social Security<br />
about temporary sick leav<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The hours and shifts management system was enhanced<br />
with tools that improve daily performance<br />
and subsequent use of the information, such as planning<br />
shifts for the preparation of work schedul<strong>es</strong>.<br />
In order to continue providing the employee website<br />
with content that facilitat<strong>es</strong> management tasks for<br />
human r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> directors as well as for employe<strong>es</strong>,<br />
the prototype phase of a scenario for requ<strong>es</strong>ting leave<br />
and holidays was implemented at various centr<strong>es</strong><br />
The rul<strong>es</strong> and procedur<strong>es</strong> for all th<strong>es</strong>e automation<br />
measur<strong>es</strong> were refl ected in the management<br />
guidebooks begun in 2008. Subsequently, any<br />
training and support s<strong>es</strong>sions nec<strong>es</strong>sary for the correct<br />
application of the new functions were provided at the<br />
workplac<strong>es</strong> through the user servic<strong>es</strong> centre.<br />
Proper improvements were made in the travel expens<strong>es</strong>
system for the application of the new travel policy<br />
for <strong>Aena</strong> employe<strong>es</strong>. In this regard, total expens<strong>es</strong> of<br />
secondment were reduced by 25% as compared to<br />
2008. Further reductions were made in the number of<br />
hours (1.5% l<strong>es</strong>s than in 2008), and the absentee rate<br />
(7.4% down from 2008).<br />
9.4. ORGANIZATIONAL AREA<br />
The following actions can be highlighted:<br />
Using criteria of effi ciency and cost containment,<br />
progr<strong>es</strong>s continued to be made to develop <strong>Aena</strong>’s<br />
organizational structure in order to align it with the<br />
new demands on the company. Thus, efforts were<br />
made to begin to adapt the organizational structur<strong>es</strong><br />
of the workplac<strong>es</strong> to the requirements arising<br />
from the implementation of the Safety Management<br />
System.<br />
The Performance Management System was consolidated<br />
as a fundamental tool for evaluating the<br />
objectiv<strong>es</strong> and r<strong>es</strong>ults of our prof<strong>es</strong>sionals, with direct<br />
consequenc<strong>es</strong> regarding compensation, promotion<br />
and training. Not only do<strong>es</strong> this system entail<br />
a change in management, but also a cultural<br />
change and a way of working based on accountability<br />
that nec<strong>es</strong>sarily originat<strong>es</strong> greater commitment<br />
to the organization’s objectiv<strong>es</strong>.<br />
New steps forward are being taken to improve the<br />
procedur<strong>es</strong> and mechanisms of the current performance<br />
management control system, which allows<br />
identifying and analyzing problems, monitoring them<br />
and proposing solutions to improve management.<br />
9.5. TRAINING<br />
The training activity was coordinated by three training<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
units: Training Division, Prof<strong>es</strong>sional Development Division<br />
(Air Navigation) and Executive Development Division.<br />
The total number of hours of training provided<br />
amounted to 329,577 hours. 94% of personnel attached<br />
to th<strong>es</strong>e units received at least one training<br />
course (counting the online cours<strong>es</strong>).<br />
The expens<strong>es</strong> directly associated with the training activiti<strong>es</strong><br />
of the three units added up to 3.3 million euros.<br />
As in previous years, <strong>Aena</strong> benefi ted from the FTFE (Tripartite<br />
Foundation for On-the-Job Training) for needed<br />
training plans in 2009. The Spanish unemployment<br />
offi ce granted <strong>Aena</strong> a subsidy of 1,147,879 euros for<br />
2009, which were deducted from the Social Security<br />
contributions, and repr<strong>es</strong>ented approximately 34% of<br />
the cost incurred in training over the year.<br />
The most signifi cant endeavours in the training area in<br />
2009 are enumerated below:<br />
The following online cours<strong>es</strong> were taught: “Safety<br />
Management System” and “Basic course for personnel<br />
of local security offi ce”. The cours<strong>es</strong> taught<br />
in classrooms were “Ass<strong>es</strong>sment of Accidents and<br />
Incidents” and “Supervision of Airport SMS”, for<br />
those in charge of airport operational safety.<br />
The fi rst cours<strong>es</strong> for in-house monitors were<br />
taught.<br />
The Barcelona Technical Training Centre was<br />
opened, and the fi rst specifi c training cours<strong>es</strong> were<br />
given to airport maintenance personnel.<br />
The fi rst training cours<strong>es</strong> with Sila (simulator of airport<br />
electrical systems) were taught at classrooms<br />
located in Madrid-Barajas Airport.<br />
The training associated with the Barcelona Plan<br />
Annual report 2009 287
288<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
was completed and the training associated with<br />
the Malaga Plan began.<br />
In the area of Air Navigation the technical operations<br />
training plan was set in motion; the manuals<br />
and CBT were d<strong>es</strong>igned and developed for the<br />
basic training pertaining to the plan. Furthermore,<br />
the training activity “On-the-Job Learning” was<br />
given as part of training for control prof<strong>es</strong>sionals.<br />
And the online course “On-the-Job Supervision”<br />
was d<strong>es</strong>igned and developed.<br />
In the realm of executive and managerial development,<br />
it is of note that within the area of airport<br />
security, the specifi c training course “Advanced<br />
Course for Company Security Directors” was given<br />
to provide <strong>Aena</strong> security directors with security<br />
management skills.<br />
9.6. CORPORATE BENEFITS AND<br />
SOCIAL PROJECTS<br />
The Corporate Benefi ts and Social Projects area continued<br />
to implement new social projects during the year<br />
2009, notably:<br />
The project “Solidarity Space”, which consisted in<br />
assigning stands free of charge in the public areas<br />
of airports to social welfare groups (NGOs, foundations<br />
and associations), so they could publicize their<br />
campaigns and share their information and missions<br />
in a populous environment. During 2009 the<br />
solidarity spac<strong>es</strong> of Madrid-Barajas, Valencia, Malaga<br />
and Palma de Mallorca were used for 211 days.<br />
Implementation of the volunteer programme<br />
through the Employee Service Programme (PAE).<br />
Volunteer projects were undertaken in conjunction<br />
with the Luis Viv<strong>es</strong> shelter in Vicálvaro (Madrid).<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
Holding “Solidarity Days” for the second time, in<br />
conjunction with all <strong>Aena</strong>’s centr<strong>es</strong> in Madrid (5<br />
participating centr<strong>es</strong> and 15 organizations invited<br />
to the event) in June and December r<strong>es</strong>pectively<br />
(two days in June and three in December).<br />
Also, <strong>Aena</strong> continued its addictive behaviour treatment<br />
and prevention programme and its emotional<br />
support and health education programm<strong>es</strong>. Of special<br />
note here is <strong>Aena</strong>’s ongoing collaborative agreement<br />
with Proyecto Hombre (an organization promoting the<br />
prevention of substance abuse) to foster information,<br />
prevention and education in this fi eld.<br />
In the development of the work and family balance<br />
policy the employee service programme provided support<br />
on 2,800 occasions during 2009. Also in this<br />
sphere a summer camp was organized in conjunction<br />
with the <strong>Aena</strong> centr<strong>es</strong> in Madrid. More than 100 children<br />
participated in the camp, which was compatible<br />
with the summer work schedule of <strong>Aena</strong> employe<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Agreements were <strong>es</strong>tablished with different organizations<br />
involved with the disabled. The organizations<br />
that benefi t from th<strong>es</strong>e agreements made pursuant<br />
to the Law on Integration of Persons with Disabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
were: Afanias, Asociación Danza Down, Fundación<br />
Dal<strong>es</strong> la Palabra, Asociación A Toda Vela, Apmib and<br />
Apsuria. In conjunction with th<strong>es</strong>e organizations the<br />
fi rst social month was scheduled, and social, cultural<br />
and sport activiti<strong>es</strong> with persons with disabiliti<strong>es</strong> were<br />
held in October and November 2009.<br />
An increased benefi t of the life insurance and accident<br />
policy went into effect on September 1st 2009, as coverage<br />
for severe disablement was included.<br />
With regard to the pension plan, during 2009 <strong>Aena</strong><br />
made contributions worth 6.06 million euros and benefi<br />
t payments totalling 1.7 million euros. At year-end<br />
the fi nal balance of the pension plan amounted to
48.03 million euros and there were 10,684 benefi ciari<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The pension plan has become a joint enterprise<br />
with the holding compani<strong>es</strong> <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
and Centros Logísticas Aeroportuarios.<br />
9.7. ENDEAVOURS REGARDING<br />
HUMAN RESOURCES IN AIR<br />
NAVIGATION<br />
The endeavours of this programme are geared toward<br />
achieving improved productivity by agreeing on<br />
chang<strong>es</strong> in the framework for negotiating new collective<br />
bargaining agreements in general and specifi cally<br />
that of controllers. They are simultaneously aimed<br />
at improving the management and prof<strong>es</strong>sional development<br />
of Air Navigation employe<strong>es</strong>. The programme<br />
embrac<strong>es</strong> the implementation of the European rul<strong>es</strong>,<br />
the current fi nancial situation of the industry and<br />
worldwide, and the integration of a possible new <strong>Aena</strong><br />
model.<br />
Improved productivity<br />
Improvement of attendance: as of December 1st 2009<br />
all Air Navigation employe<strong>es</strong> must clock in when arriving<br />
and leaving.<br />
Negotiation of compensation associated to productivity<br />
in <strong>Aena</strong>’s 5th collective bargaining agreement:<br />
the negotiation of <strong>Aena</strong>’s 5th collective bargaining<br />
agreement included discussion about the possibility<br />
of reinforcing strategic goal deployment for nonmanagerial<br />
personnel.<br />
Several rounds of negotiation were held for the II CC<br />
Control under the premis<strong>es</strong> of increased productivity<br />
and cost containment, and increased fl exibility in the<br />
management of the proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> of recruitment, prof<strong>es</strong>sional<br />
careers, collective bargaining, work organization,<br />
work hours and breaks, and economic compensation.<br />
Prof<strong>es</strong>sional Development<br />
In 2009 the internal proc<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong> for concluding the<br />
transitory phase of organizing the controller staff<br />
into groups were performed at the control centr<strong>es</strong><br />
of Madrid and Barcelona.<br />
In 2009 the training associated with the prof<strong>es</strong>sional<br />
career and language skills of controllers was<br />
offered for certain controller positions.<br />
Throughout 2009 the cours<strong>es</strong> for maintenance personnel<br />
by areas were d<strong>es</strong>igned (SES “qualifi cation<br />
seri<strong>es</strong>”). They will begin to be offered at a later date.<br />
Improved Management<br />
Legal information<br />
Management Report<br />
In the fi rst sem<strong>es</strong>ter of 2009 several s<strong>es</strong>sions were<br />
held at central servic<strong>es</strong> of Air Navigation and in its<br />
5 regional directorat<strong>es</strong> to instil concepts of fi nancial<br />
and human r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong> management.<br />
In 2009 the round of visits to the 5 regional directorat<strong>es</strong><br />
to draw up a specifi c report on the strengths and weakn<strong>es</strong>s<strong>es</strong><br />
of the shift-scheduling proc<strong>es</strong>s was concluded.<br />
10. FORESEEABLE PROSPECTS<br />
D<strong>es</strong>pite the downturn in passenger traffi c and operations<br />
which took place during the fi nancial year, along with the<br />
slump in air traffi c worldwide, the Group’s prospects of<br />
long-term growth are satisfactory in all its lin<strong>es</strong> of busin<strong>es</strong>s<br />
owing to the anticipated growth of the activiti<strong>es</strong> pertaining<br />
to them. This will enable carrying out the inv<strong>es</strong>tment<br />
plan commissioned by the Ministry of Public Works and<br />
Transport to achieve the objectiv<strong>es</strong> of quality, safety, performance<br />
and competitiven<strong>es</strong>s of the Spanish air transport<br />
infrastructur<strong>es</strong> with the high standards required for<br />
the socioeconomic development the country needs.<br />

1. GROUP ACTIVITIES<br />
AND STRUCTURE<br />
Entidad Pública Empr<strong>es</strong>arial “<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong><br />
y <strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong> (AENA)” (“AENA” or “the Entity”)<br />
was set up under Article 82 of State Budget Law<br />
4/1990, of 29 June. It was effectively formed on 19<br />
June 1991 following the entry into force of its bylaws,<br />
which were approved by Royal Decree 905/1991, of<br />
14 June.<br />
The Entity is structured as a public law entity attached<br />
to the Ministry of Public Works with its own legal personality<br />
independent from that of the State, and carri<strong>es</strong><br />
on its busin<strong>es</strong>s activity within the framework of<br />
the Government’s general transport policy.<br />
Its bylaws, approved by Royal Decree 905/1991, of 14<br />
June, were subsequently amended by Royal Decree<br />
1993/1996, of 6 September, Royal Decree 1711/1997,<br />
of 14 November, and Royal Decree 2825/1998, of 23<br />
December.<br />
Its company object, per its bylaws, is as follows:<br />
1. The organisation, management, coordination, operation,<br />
upkeep and administration of civilian public<br />
airports and of the related servic<strong>es</strong>, and the<br />
coordination, operation, upkeep and administration<br />
of civilian areas at air bas<strong>es</strong> open to civil aviation<br />
traffi c.<br />
2. The d<strong>es</strong>ign, execution, management and control<br />
of inv<strong>es</strong>tments in airport infrastructure and faciliti<strong>es</strong>.<br />
3. The organisation, management, coordination,<br />
operation, upkeep and administration of aeronautical<br />
telecommunications system faciliti<strong>es</strong> and<br />
networks, navigation aids and air traffi c control.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
4. The d<strong>es</strong>ign, execution, management and control<br />
of inv<strong>es</strong>tments in aeronautical telecommunications<br />
system infrastructur<strong>es</strong>, faciliti<strong>es</strong> and networks, navigation<br />
aids and air traffi c control.<br />
5. The submission of proposals for the planning of<br />
new airport and air navigation infrastructure and<br />
the modifi cation of air space.<br />
6. The development of security servic<strong>es</strong> at airports<br />
and control centr<strong>es</strong> and participation in specifi c<br />
training relating to air transport and subject to the<br />
grant of offi cial licens<strong>es</strong>, all without detriment to<br />
the functions assigned to the Spanish Directorate-<br />
General of Civil Aviation.<br />
7. Equity inv<strong>es</strong>tments in other compani<strong>es</strong> or entiti<strong>es</strong><br />
related to its activiti<strong>es</strong> that have a different object.<br />
Servic<strong>es</strong> were fi rst provided at Spanish airports in November<br />
1991, and the provision of servic<strong>es</strong> relating<br />
to navigation aids and air traffi c control commenced<br />
in November 1992, when the formation of the Entity<br />
was completed.<br />
<strong>Aena</strong> is currently in the proc<strong>es</strong>s of developing a new<br />
airport management model, the main components of<br />
which are as summarised:<br />
- <strong>Aena</strong> remains a public law entity with air navigation<br />
competenci<strong>es</strong>, and is guaranteed the mechanisms required<br />
to carry out its obligations in relation to the security,<br />
continuity, competitiven<strong>es</strong>s and effi ciency of the<br />

- Creation of the state company, <strong>Aena</strong> <strong>Aeropuertos</strong>,<br />
S.A. to be r<strong>es</strong>ponsible for the management of the current<br />
airport network, in which <strong>Aena</strong> will hold at least<br />
70% of the share capital. This company will basically<br />
be competent to render all airport servic<strong>es</strong> (except
airport navigation servic<strong>es</strong> or those relating to other<br />
state agenci<strong>es</strong> such as customs or security, for example),<br />
manage and maintain the airport infrastructure<br />

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION<br />
A) FAIR PRESENTATION<br />
The consolidated fi nancial statements for 2008 were<br />
pr<strong>es</strong>ented by the Chairman and General Manager of the<br />
Parent from the accounting records of Entidad Pública<br />
Empr<strong>es</strong>arial “<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong> y <strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong><br />
(AENA)” and of its subsidiari<strong>es</strong> (see Note 1), whose r<strong>es</strong>pective<br />
fi nancial statements are prepared by the directors<br />
of each company and are pr<strong>es</strong>ented in accordance<br />
with Royal Decree 1514/2007 approving the Spanish National<br />
Chart of Accounts and other applicable accounting<br />
legislation and, accordingly, they pr<strong>es</strong>ent fairly the<br />
Group’s consolidated equity and fi nancial position, the<br />
r<strong>es</strong>ults of its operations and its consolidated cash fl ows.<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e consolidated fi nancial statements will be submitted<br />
for approval by the Board of Directors of the<br />
Parent and it is considered that they will be approved<br />
without any chang<strong>es</strong>. The fi nancial statements for<br />
2008 were approved by the Board of Directors of the<br />
Parent at the meeting held on 24 June 2009.<br />
B) NON-OBLIGATORY ACCOUNTING<br />
PRINCIPLES APPLIED<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e consolidated fi nancial statements were prepared<br />
by taking into account all the obligatory accounting<br />
principl<strong>es</strong> and standards with a signifi cant effect hereon.<br />
All obligatory accounting principl<strong>es</strong> were applied<br />
C) ) KEY ISSUES IN RELATION TO THE<br />
MEASUREMENT AND ESTIMATION<br />
OF UNCERTAINTY<br />
In preparing the accompanying consolidated fi nancial<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
statements <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> were made by the Group compani<strong>es</strong>’<br />
directors in order to measure certain of the assets,<br />
liabiliti<strong>es</strong>, income, expens<strong>es</strong> and obligations reported<br />
herein. Th<strong>es</strong>e <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> relate basically to the following:<br />
The ass<strong>es</strong>sment of possible impairment loss<strong>es</strong> on<br />
certain assets (see Note 4)<br />
The useful life of property, plant and equipment<br />
and intangible assets (see Note 4)<br />
The calculation of provisions (see Note 13)<br />
Revenue and the costs associated with contracts<br />
for the provision of servic<strong>es</strong> (see Note 4).<br />
The assumptions used in the actuarial calculation<br />
of the liabiliti<strong>es</strong> for obligations to employe<strong>es</strong> (see<br />
Note 13).<br />
The market value of certain fi nancial instruments<br />
(see Note 10).<br />
Although th<strong>es</strong>e <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> were made on the basis of<br />
the b<strong>es</strong>t information available at 2009 year-end, events<br />
that take place in the future might make it nec<strong>es</strong>sary<br />
to change th<strong>es</strong>e <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> (upwards or downwards) in<br />
coming years. Chang<strong>es</strong> in accounting <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> would<br />
be applied prospectively.<br />
In this regard, Royal Decree-Law 1/2010, of 5 February,<br />
regulating the provision of air traffi c servic<strong>es</strong>, stipulating<br />
the obligations of civil providers of the aforementioned<br />
servic<strong>es</strong>, and setting specifi c working conditions<br />
for civil air traffi c controllers, provid<strong>es</strong>, inter alia, that<br />
until three years from its entry into force have elapsed,<br />
the right to receive the Special Paid Leave (Licencia Especial<br />
Retribuida) is suspended, and no further employe<strong>es</strong><br />
may avail themselv<strong>es</strong> of the aforementioned<br />
situation, whether it has been already requ<strong>es</strong>ted or<br />
not. In addition, the bill which will regulate the pro-<br />
Annual report 2009 299

Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
vision of air traffi c servic<strong>es</strong> is currently being drafted,<br />
and its content could signifi cantly affect the regime<br />
applicable to Special Paid Leave.<br />
At 31 December 2009, the Group had a working capital<br />
defi ciency of EUR 2,262 million and a loss for the year of<br />
EUR 344 million. In order to meet its inv<strong>es</strong>tment commitments<br />
and settle its liabiliti<strong>es</strong>, the Group has credit lin<strong>es</strong><br />
and undrawn loans of EUR 1,674 million (see Note 14), in<br />
addition to the cash fl ows that will be generated in 2009.<br />
Also, under the “Framework Agreement to fi nance the<br />
Strategic Plan for Infrastructur<strong>es</strong> and Transport” (PEIT)<br />
between the Ministry of Public Works and the European<br />
Inv<strong>es</strong>tment Bank (EIB) of 4 July 2006, the Parent may opt<br />
to arrange supplementary fi nancing of EUR 600 million<br />
subject to the EIB’s positive ass<strong>es</strong>sment of the projects for<br />
which the fi nancing is requ<strong>es</strong>ted. In view of the foregoing,<br />
the Parent’s directors consider that it will not have<br />
any diffi culti<strong>es</strong> in fulfi lling its obligations.<br />
The Group carried out the relevant impairment t<strong>es</strong>ts<br />
according to the procedure d<strong>es</strong>cribed in Note 4-a,<br />
which did not disclose any material impairment loss<strong>es</strong>.<br />
D) COMPARATIVE INFORMATION<br />
The information relating to 2008 included in th<strong>es</strong>e<br />
not<strong>es</strong> to the consolidated fi nancial statements is pr<strong>es</strong>ented<br />
exclusively for comparison purpos<strong>es</strong> with the<br />
information for 2009.<br />
E) GROUPING OF ITEMS<br />
Certain items in the consolidated balance sheet, consolidated<br />
income statement, consolidated statement<br />
of chang<strong>es</strong> in equity and consolidated statement of<br />
cash fl ows are grouped together to facilitate their<br />
understanding; however, whenever the amounts involved<br />
are material, the obligatory information is bro-<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
ken down in the related not<strong>es</strong> to the consolidated<br />
fi nancial statements.<br />
F) CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES<br />
In 2009 the Parent recognised an increase of EUR<br />
34,666 thousand in the EU grants recognised in equity,<br />
since they met the requirements to be considered refundable<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the approval of Ministry of Economy<br />
and Finance Order EHA/733/2010, of 25 March,<br />
approving accounting matters relating to public-sector<br />
compani<strong>es</strong> operating in specifi c circumstanc<strong>es</strong>. Pursuant<br />
to this Order, the Company opted not to adapt the<br />
comparative information to the new polici<strong>es</strong>.<br />
G) CORRECTION OF ERRORS<br />
The Parent recognised adjustments of EUR 13,082<br />
thousand in the accompanying fi nancial statements<br />
for the following items:<br />
- The impact of fi ling supplementary income tax returns<br />
for prior years in 2009, which gave rise to a negative<br />
adjustment in equity of EUR 9,412 thousand (see<br />
Note 13.1).<br />
- The difference between the provision for income tax<br />
payable recognised in 2008 and the income tax return<br />
that was fi nally settled in 2009. Consequently, equity<br />
decreased by EUR 3,670 thousand (see Note 13.1).<br />
H) CONSOLIDATION METHODS<br />
The consolidation was carried out, in accordance with<br />
current legislation, by applying the following methods:<br />
1. Compani<strong>es</strong> over which “<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong> y<br />
<strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong> (AENA)” exercis<strong>es</strong> control are
deemed to be subsidiari<strong>es</strong>. The fi nancial statements<br />
of the subsidiari<strong>es</strong> are fully consolidated.<br />
In 2009 Ingeniería y Economía del Transporte<br />
S.A., Centros Logísticos Aeroportuarios S.A., <strong>Aena</strong><br />
D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional S.A. and Centro de<br />
Referencia Inv<strong>es</strong>tigación, D<strong>es</strong>arrollo e Innovación<br />
ATM, A.I.E. were in this position.<br />
2. Compani<strong>es</strong> over which the Entity has the capacity<br />
to exercise signifi cant infl uence are deemed to<br />
be associat<strong>es</strong>. Th<strong>es</strong>e compani<strong>es</strong> are accounted for<br />
using the equity method. In 2009 R<strong>es</strong>tauración de<br />
<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong> S.A., Tecnología e Inv<strong>es</strong>tigación<br />
Ferroviaria S.A., <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> Mexicanos<br />
del Pacífi co S.A. de CV, <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> del Caribe<br />
S.A., Sociedad Aeroportuaria de la Costa S.A. and<br />
Aerocali S.A. were in this position.<br />
In all cas<strong>es</strong> the fi nancial statements of the Group compani<strong>es</strong><br />
used in the proc<strong>es</strong>s of consolidation are those<br />
for the year ended 31 December 2009.<br />
The profi t or loss on the transactions of compani<strong>es</strong> that<br />
were acquired or disposed of was included from the date<br />
of acquisition or up to the date of disposal, r<strong>es</strong>pectively.<br />
For the purpos<strong>es</strong> of the accompanying consolidated fi -<br />
nancial statements, the date of fi rst-time consolidation<br />
for each subsidiary was deemed to be that on which it<br />
joined the Group. The date of fi rst-time consolidation<br />
for the subsidiary CRIDA, which was consolidated for<br />
the fi rst time after the date of transition, was deemed<br />
to be the date on which control was obtained.<br />
Balanc<strong>es</strong> and transactions between compani<strong>es</strong><br />
included in the scope of consolidation<br />
Material transactions and accounts receivable and payable<br />
between Entidad Pública Empr<strong>es</strong>arial “<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> <strong>Español<strong>es</strong></strong><br />
y <strong>Navegación</strong> <strong>Aérea</strong> (AENA)” and its subsidiari<strong>es</strong> at<br />
31 December 2009 were eliminated on consolidation.<br />

Standardisation of accounting principl<strong>es</strong><br />
In order to uniformly pr<strong>es</strong>ent the items included in the<br />
accompanying consolidated fi nancial statements, the<br />
same methods were applied to all the compani<strong>es</strong> included<br />
in the scope of consolidation.<br />
Minority inter<strong>es</strong>ts<br />
The share of third parti<strong>es</strong> in the equity and profi t/loss<br />
of compani<strong>es</strong> that were fully consolidated is shown<br />
under “Equity - Minority Inter<strong>es</strong>ts” in the consolidated<br />
balance sheet and under “Loss Attributable to Minority<br />
Inter<strong>es</strong>ts” in the accompanying 2009 consolidated<br />
income statement, r<strong>es</strong>pectively.<br />
Translation methods (year-end rate method)<br />
The fi nancial statements of the Colombian associat<strong>es</strong><br />
<strong>Aeropuertos</strong> del Caribe S.A., Sociedad Aeroportuaria<br />
de la Costa S.A. and Aerocali S.A. and the Mexican<br />
associate <strong>Aeropuertos</strong> Mexicanos del Pacífi co S.A. de<br />
CV were translated to euros at the exchange rat<strong>es</strong> ruling<br />
at year-end, by applying the following procedure:<br />
1. The asset and liability items of the foreign company<br />
were translated at the exchange rate ruling<br />
at the reporting date of the company in qu<strong>es</strong>tion.<br />
2. The equity items of the foreign company were<br />
translated at the historical exchange rat<strong>es</strong> prevailing<br />
at the date on which the item was included in<br />
the company’s equity.<br />
3. Income-statement items were translated at the<br />
average exchange rate for the year.<br />
The differenc<strong>es</strong> accumulated at the date of transition<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the application of this translation<br />
method were deemed to be r<strong>es</strong>erv<strong>es</strong> of the inv<strong>es</strong>tor.<br />
The translation differenc<strong>es</strong> arising in the year were<br />

4.MEASUREMENT BASES<br />
(352,899)<br />
(352,899)<br />
The principal measurement bas<strong>es</strong> applied by the Company<br />
and its Subsidiari<strong>es</strong> (AENA Group) in preparing their consolidated<br />
fi nancial statements for 2009, in accordance with<br />
the Spanish National Chart of Accounts, were as follows:<br />
A) INMOVILIZACIONES INTANGIBLES<br />
Intangible assets are recognised at acquisition, production<br />
cost or their saleable assignment value. Amortisation<br />
is calculated on a straight-line basis based<br />
on the useful liv<strong>es</strong> of the related assets at the following<br />
rat<strong>es</strong>:<br />
Development expenditure 25<br />
Computer software 17-25<br />
Other intangible assets 12.5-25<br />
Development expenditure, specifi cally itemised by<br />
project, which is, or will for<strong>es</strong>eeably be economically<br />
and fi nancially profi table and technically succ<strong>es</strong>sful, is<br />
capitalised and amortised over a period of four years<br />
from the date of completion. If there are chang<strong>es</strong> in<br />
the favourable circumstanc<strong>es</strong> of the project that made<br />
it possible to capitalise th<strong>es</strong>e expens<strong>es</strong>, the unamortised<br />
portion is charged to income in the year in which<br />
th<strong>es</strong>e conditions change.<br />
“Computer Software” relat<strong>es</strong> to the amounts paid to<br />
acquire and develop certain computer programm<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Computer software maintenance costs are recognised<br />
with a charge to the income statement for the year in<br />
which they are incurred.<br />
The Parent capitalis<strong>es</strong> mainly its airports’ Master Plans<br />
and the related studi<strong>es</strong> under “Other Intangible Assets”,<br />
which are amortised over eight years.<br />
The same polici<strong>es</strong> as those indicated for property, plant<br />
and equipment are also applicable in relation to the<br />
capitalisation of fi nance costs, in-house work, replacements<br />
or renewals and the recognition of gains or loss<strong>es</strong><br />
on disposals.<br />
The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an asset<br />
is calculated as the difference between the sale price<br />
and carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in<br />
the income statement.<br />
The charge to the 2009 consolidated income statement<br />
relating to the amortisation of intangible assets<br />
amounted to EUR 41,845 thousand (EUR 48,161<br />
thousand in 2008)(see Note 5).<br />
%
Impairment of intangible assets and property,<br />
plant and equipment<br />
Whenever there are indications of impairment or at<br />
the end of each reporting period in the case of goodwill<br />
and intangible assets with indefi nite useful liv<strong>es</strong>,<br />
the Group t<strong>es</strong>ts the non-current and intangible assets<br />
for impairment to determine whether the recoverable<br />
amount of the assets has been reduced to below their<br />
carrying amount.<br />
The Group mak<strong>es</strong> a distinction between cash-generating<br />
assets and non-cash-generating assets. Cashgenerating<br />
assets are items of property, plant and<br />
equipment, intangible assets or property owned to obtain<br />
a profi t or generate a commercial return through<br />
the delivery of goods or the provision of servic<strong>es</strong> while<br />
non-cash-generating assets are items owned for a<br />
purpose other than to obtain a commercial return. On<br />
certain occasions, even if an asset is held mainly to<br />
produce social economic fl ows that benefi t the group,<br />
it can also generate a commercial return through part<br />
of its installations or components or through a use<br />
both incidental and different to its main use. When the<br />
cash-generating component or use can be considered<br />
acc<strong>es</strong>sory with r<strong>es</strong>pect to the main objective of the asset<br />
as a whole, or it cannot be operated or exploited<br />
independently from the r<strong>es</strong>t of the components and<br />
installations composing the asset, it is considered as a<br />
whole to be non-cash-generating.<br />
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value l<strong>es</strong>s<br />
costs to sell and value in use.<br />
The Parent performs impairment t<strong>es</strong>ts as follows:<br />
The recoverable amounts are calculated for each<br />
cash generating unit; for the whole airport network<br />
and all the air traffi c control centr<strong>es</strong> and towers<br />
through which the air traffi c control service is<br />
provided.<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
Management prepar<strong>es</strong> a busin<strong>es</strong>s plan each year<br />
(Pluriannual Action Plan) which generally spans a<br />
period of three years. The main components of this<br />
plan, on which the impairment t<strong>es</strong>t is based, are<br />
as follows:<br />
− Earnings projections.<br />
− Inv<strong>es</strong>tment and working capital projections.<br />
Otras variabl<strong>es</strong> que infl uyen en el cálculo del valor<br />
recuperable son:<br />
− Tipo de d<strong>es</strong>cuento a aplicar, entendiendo éste<br />
como la media ponderada del coste de capital,<br />
siendo las principal<strong>es</strong> variabl<strong>es</strong> que infl uyen en<br />
su cálculo, el coste de los pasivos y los ri<strong>es</strong>gos<br />
<strong>es</strong>pecífi cos de los activos.<br />
− Tasa de crecimiento de los fl ujos de caja empleada<br />
para extrapolar las proyeccion<strong>es</strong> de fl ujos<br />
de efectivo más allá del período cubierto<br />
por los pr<strong>es</strong>upu<strong>es</strong>tos o prevision<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The Pluriannual Action Plans are prepared in accordance<br />
with the b<strong>es</strong>t <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> available and are approved<br />
by the Board of Directors.<br />
If an impairment loss has to be recognised, the Group<br />
reduc<strong>es</strong> the carrying amount of the assets in the cash<br />
generating unit down to the limit of the high<strong>es</strong>t of the<br />
following valu<strong>es</strong>: fair value l<strong>es</strong>s costs to sell; value in<br />
use (or, in the case of non-cash-generating assets, depreciated<br />
replacement cost); and zero.<br />
If an impairment loss were to subsequently reverse,<br />
the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating<br />
unit would be increased to the revised <strong>es</strong>timate of its<br />
recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying<br />
amount do<strong>es</strong> not exceed the carrying amount that<br />
would have been determined had no impairment loss<br />
Annual report 2009 303
304<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
been recognised in prior years. Such a reversal of an<br />
impairment loss would be recognised as income.<br />
In 2009 no material impairment loss<strong>es</strong> were detected<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the preceding analysis.<br />
B) PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT<br />
Property, plant and equipment are pr<strong>es</strong>ented in the consolidated<br />
balance sheet and are measured at acquisition<br />
cost, production cost or saleable assignment value l<strong>es</strong>s<br />
any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment<br />
loss<strong>es</strong>, as indicated in the previous note.<br />
Assigned property, plant and equipment are measured<br />
at their saleable value, which is considered to be the<br />
actual value in use based on an independent appraisal<br />
since, given that they are assigned to the Parent’s assets,<br />
no consideration, which would have enabled the acquisition<br />
cost to be determined, was paid.<br />
Property, plant and equipment additions and purchas<strong>es</strong><br />
made by the Group are measured at acquisition or<br />
production cost and include the environmental costs required<br />
to make them.<br />
Property, plant and equipment additions prior to 31 December<br />
1996 are measured at revalued cost or initial appraisal<br />
value, pursuant to the related enabling legislation.<br />
Inter<strong>es</strong>t and other fi nance costs incurred, directly attributable<br />
to the acquisition or construction of assets at the<br />
various airports, which nec<strong>es</strong>sarily require a period of<br />
at least 12 months to come into operation, are treated<br />
as an addition to the related assets. The assets not included<br />
in the airport network do not include the fi nance<br />
costs related to their fi nancing.<br />
In-house work on non-current assets is measured at<br />
accumulated cost (external costs plus in-house costs,<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
determined on the basis of in-house materials consumption,<br />
direct labour and general manufacturing costs).<br />
Replacements or renewals of complete items that lead<br />
to a lengthening of the useful life of the assets or to an<br />
increase in their economic capacity are accounted for<br />
as additions to property, plant and equipment, and the<br />
items replaced or renewed are derecognised.<br />
Periodic maintenance, upkeep and repair expens<strong>es</strong> are<br />
recognised in the income statement on an accrual basis<br />
as incurred.<br />
The Group depreciat<strong>es</strong> its property, plant and equipment<br />
once they are ready for use by the straight-line method<br />
apportioning the carrying amount of the assets over their<br />
<strong>es</strong>timated useful liv<strong>es</strong>, except in the case of land, which is<br />
considered to have an indefi nite useful life and is therefore<br />
not depreciated. The useful life of the assigned property,<br />
plant and equipment was <strong>es</strong>timated on the basis<br />
of the degree of use of the assets included under each<br />
heading. The years of <strong>es</strong>timated useful life are as follows:<br />
Buildings<br />
YEARS<br />
20-50<br />
Plant 10-20<br />
Machinery 5-25<br />
Other fi xtur<strong>es</strong> 8-20<br />
Furniture 10-13<br />
Other items of property, plant and equipment 4-17<br />
Additionally, when the realisable value of an asset is<br />
l<strong>es</strong>s than its carrying amount, and the difference is not<br />
considered to be fi nal, an allowance is recognised for<br />
the difference. However, if the decrease in value is irreversible<br />
the cost of the asset is reduced directly.<br />
Upkeep and maintenance expens<strong>es</strong> are expensed<br />
when incurred. The costs of renewals, expansion or<br />
improvements leading to increased capacity, productivity<br />
or to a lengthening of the useful liv<strong>es</strong> of the assets<br />
are capitalised.
The charge to the 2009 consolidated income statement<br />
relating to the depreciation of property, plant<br />
and equipment amounted to EUR 752,072 thousand<br />
(EUR 653,153 thousand in 2008)(see Note 6).<br />
C) INVESTMENT PROPERTY<br />
“Inv<strong>es</strong>tment Property” in the consolidated balance<br />
sheet includ<strong>es</strong> the value of buildings, other structur<strong>es</strong><br />
and fi xtur<strong>es</strong> held to earn rentals.<br />
Inv<strong>es</strong>tment property is measured as d<strong>es</strong>cribed in Note<br />
4-b on property, plant and equipment.<br />
The charge to the 2009 consolidated income statement<br />
relating to the depreciation of inv<strong>es</strong>tment property<br />
amounted to EUR 3,402 thousand (EUR 3,008<br />
thousand in 2008)(see Note 7).<br />
D) LEASES<br />
Leas<strong>es</strong> are classifi ed as fi nance leas<strong>es</strong> whenever the<br />
terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks<br />
and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset<br />
to the l<strong>es</strong>see. All other leas<strong>es</strong> are classifi ed as operating<br />
leas<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Finance leas<strong>es</strong><br />
In fi nance leas<strong>es</strong> in which the Group acts as the l<strong>es</strong>see,<br />
the cost of the leased assets is pr<strong>es</strong>ented in the consolidated<br />
balance sheet, based on the nature of the<br />
leased asset, and, simultaneously, a liability is recognised<br />
for the same amount. This amount is the lower<br />
of the fair value of the leased asset and the pr<strong>es</strong>ent<br />
value, at the inception of the lease, of the agreed minimum<br />
lease payments, including the price of the purchase<br />
option when it is reasonably certain that it will<br />
be exercised. The minimum lease payments do not<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
include contingent rent, costs for servic<strong>es</strong> and tax<strong>es</strong><br />
to be paid by and reimbursed to the l<strong>es</strong>sor. The total<br />
fi nance charg<strong>es</strong> arising under the lease are allocated<br />
to the consolidated income statement for the year<br />
in which they are incurred using the effective inter<strong>es</strong>t<br />
method. Contingent rent is recognised as an expense<br />
for the period in which it is incurred.<br />
In particular, the subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
arranged a fi nance lease which meets the<br />
abovementioned characteristics, with BBVA acting as<br />
the l<strong>es</strong>sor (see the characteristics of the fi nancing in<br />
Note 14), the purpose of which is the acquisition of<br />
an automated fl ight inspection system (console), at a<br />
cost of EUR 3,551 thousand, which is recognised under<br />
“Property, Plant and Equipment – Other Items of<br />
Property, Plant and Equipment” in the accompanying<br />
consolidated balance sheet at 31 December 2009 (see<br />
Note 6). The subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
is depreciating this asset over its <strong>es</strong>timated useful life,<br />
i.e. over approximately ten years.<br />
Operating leas<strong>es</strong><br />
Lease income and expens<strong>es</strong> from operating leas<strong>es</strong> corr<strong>es</strong>ponding<br />
to the l<strong>es</strong>see are recognised in the consolidated<br />
income statement on an accrual basis.<br />
The acquisition cost of the leased assets is pr<strong>es</strong>ented<br />
in the consolidated balance sheet according to the nature<br />
of the asset, increased by the costs directly attributable<br />
to the lease, which are recognised as an<br />
expense over the lease term, applying the same method<br />
as that used to recognise lease income.<br />
Any collection or payment that might be made when<br />
arranging an operating lease will be treated as a prepaid<br />
lease collection or payment which will be allocated<br />
to profi t or loss over the lease term.<br />

E) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS<br />
E-1) FINANCIAL ASSETS<br />
Classifi cation<br />
The fi nancial assets held by the Group are classifi ed in<br />
the following categori<strong>es</strong>:<br />
a) Loans and receivabl<strong>es</strong>: fi nancial assets arising from<br />
the rendering of servic<strong>es</strong> in the ordinary course of<br />
the Group’s busin<strong>es</strong>s, or fi nancial assets which, not<br />
having commercial substance, are not equity instruments<br />
or derivativ<strong>es</strong>, have fi xed or determinable<br />
payments and are not traded in an active market.<br />
The directors of the Company and its subsidiari<strong>es</strong> do<br />
not for<strong>es</strong>ee any problems with regard to the recovery<br />
of th<strong>es</strong>e assets.<br />
b) Held-to-maturity inv<strong>es</strong>tments: debt securiti<strong>es</strong> with<br />
fi xed maturity and determinable payments that are<br />
traded in an active market and which the Group has<br />
the positive intention and ability to hold to the date<br />
of maturity. The Group had not made any inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
of this nature at 31 December 2009.<br />
c) Held-for-trading fi nancial assets: assets acquired<br />
with the intention of selling them in the short term<br />
and assets that form part of a portfolio for which<br />
there is evidence of a recent actual pattern of shortterm<br />
profi t-taking. This category also includ<strong>es</strong> fi -<br />
nancial derivativ<strong>es</strong> that are not fi nancial guarante<strong>es</strong><br />
(e.g. suretyships) and that have not been d<strong>es</strong>ignated<br />
as hedging instruments.<br />
d) Deposits and guarante<strong>es</strong> corr<strong>es</strong>pond mainly to<br />
the guarante<strong>es</strong> given to the public authoriti<strong>es</strong> of<br />
the various autonomous communiti<strong>es</strong> by virtue<br />
of the Law on Urban Leas<strong>es</strong> and to the deposits<br />
given as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the compulsory purchas<strong>es</strong><br />
made for the purpose of construction work at<br />
various airports.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
e) Available-for-sale fi nancial assets: th<strong>es</strong>e are equity<br />
instruments of other compani<strong>es</strong> that were not classifi<br />
ed in any of the aforementioned categori<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Initial recognition<br />
Financial assets are initially recognised at the fair value<br />
of the consideration given, plus any directly attributable<br />
transaction costs.<br />
Subsequent measurement<br />
Loans and receivabl<strong>es</strong> and held-to-maturity inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
are measured at amortised cost.<br />
Available-for-sale fi nancial assets are measured at fair<br />
value and the gains and loss<strong>es</strong> arising from chang<strong>es</strong><br />
in fair value are recognised in equity until the asset<br />
is disposed of or it is determined that it has become<br />
(permanently) impaired, at which time the cumulative<br />
gains or loss<strong>es</strong> previously recognised in equity are<br />
recognised in the net profi t or loss for the year.<br />
At least at each reporting date the Group t<strong>es</strong>ts fi nancial<br />
assets not measured at fair value through profi t or<br />
loss for impairment. Objective evidence of impairment<br />
is considered to exist when the recoverable amount of<br />
the fi nancial asset is lower than its carrying amount.<br />
When this occurs, the impairment loss is recognised in<br />
the consolidated income statement.<br />
In particular, and with r<strong>es</strong>pect to the valuation adjustments<br />
relating to trade and other receivabl<strong>es</strong>, impairment<br />
loss<strong>es</strong> are calculated in order to cover the risks of<br />
doubtful debts and insolvency relating to balanc<strong>es</strong> of<br />
a certain age and for which the related circumstanc<strong>es</strong><br />
recommend their classifi cation as doubtful debts.<br />
The Group derecognis<strong>es</strong> a fi nancial asset when it expir<strong>es</strong><br />
or when the rights to the cash fl ows from the<br />
fi nancial asset have been transferred and substan-
tially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the<br />
fi nancial asset have been transferred, such as in the<br />
case of fi rm asset sal<strong>es</strong>, sal<strong>es</strong> of fi nancial assets under<br />
an agreement to repurchase them at fair value<br />
and the securitisation of fi nancial assets in which<br />
the transferor do<strong>es</strong> not retain any subordinated<br />
debt, provide any kind of guarantee or assume any<br />
other kind of risk.<br />
However, the Group do<strong>es</strong> not derecognise fi nancial assets<br />
and recognis<strong>es</strong> a fi nancial liability for an amount<br />
equal to the consideration received in transfers of fi -<br />
nancial assets in which substantially all the risks and<br />
rewards of ownership are retained.<br />
E-2) FINANCIAL LIABILITIES<br />
e-2) Financial liabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
Financial liabiliti<strong>es</strong> include accounts payable by the<br />
Group that have arisen from the purchase of goods<br />
or servic<strong>es</strong> in the normal course of busin<strong>es</strong>s and those<br />
which, not having commercial substance, cannot be<br />
classed as derivative fi nancial instruments.<br />
Accounts payable are initially recognised at the fair<br />
value of the consideration received, adjusted by the<br />
directly attributable transaction costs. Th<strong>es</strong>e liabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
are subsequently measured at amortised cost.<br />
F) HEDGE ACCOUNTING<br />
The Group us<strong>es</strong> derivative fi nancial instruments to<br />
hedge the risks to which its busin<strong>es</strong>s activiti<strong>es</strong>, operations<br />
and future cash fl ows are exposed. Th<strong>es</strong>e<br />
risks arise mainly as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of chang<strong>es</strong> in exchange<br />
rat<strong>es</strong>. Within the framework of th<strong>es</strong>e transactions,<br />
the Group has a cash fl ow hedging instrument as d<strong>es</strong>cribed<br />
in Note 10.<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
In order for this fi nancial instrument to qualify for hedge<br />
accounting, it was initially d<strong>es</strong>ignated as such and the<br />
hedging relationship was documented. Also, the Group<br />
verifi <strong>es</strong>, both at inception and periodically over the term<br />
of the hedge (at least at the end of each reporting period),<br />
that the hedging relationship is effective, i.e. that<br />
it is prospectively for<strong>es</strong>eeable that the chang<strong>es</strong> in the<br />
fair value or cash fl ows of the hedged item (attributable<br />
to the hedged risk) will be almost fully offset by those<br />
of the hedging instrument and that, retrospectively, the<br />
gain or loss on the hedge was within a range of 80-<br />
125% of the gain or loss on the hedged item.<br />
In a cash fl ow hedge, the portion of the gain or loss<br />
on the hedging instrument that has been determined<br />
to be an effective hedge is recognised temporarily<br />
in equity and is recognised in the consolidated income<br />
statement in the same period during which the<br />
hedged item affects profi t or loss, unl<strong>es</strong>s the hedge<br />
relat<strong>es</strong> to a forecast transaction that r<strong>es</strong>ults in the recognition<br />
of a non-fi nancial asset or a non-fi nancial liability,<br />
in which case the amounts recognised in equity<br />
are included in the initial cost of the asset or liability<br />
when it is acquired or assumed.<br />
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the hedging instrument<br />
expir<strong>es</strong> or is sold, terminated or exercised, or<br />
no longer qualifi <strong>es</strong> for hedge accounting. At that time,<br />
any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument<br />
recognised in equity is retained in equity until the forecast<br />
transaction occurs. If a hedged transaction is no longer<br />
expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognised<br />
in equity is transferred to net profi t or loss for the<br />
year and the amount thereof is recognised as fi nancial<br />
profi t or loss in the consolidated income statement.<br />
G) INVENTORIES<br />
Inventori<strong>es</strong> include spare parts and sundry materials at<br />
the Central Warehous<strong>es</strong> and the Parent’s Logistics Sup-<br />
Annual report 2009 307

Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
port Centre, and are initially measured at cost (weighted<br />
average cost). Acquisition cost is based on historic<br />
cost for items identifi ed in the purchas<strong>es</strong> books. Subsequently,<br />
if the net realisable value of the inventori<strong>es</strong><br />
is lower than the acquisition cost, the appropriate<br />
write-downs will be made. If the circumstanc<strong>es</strong> causing<br />
the inventori<strong>es</strong> to be written down ceased to exist,<br />
the amount of the write-down would be reversed.<br />
H) FOREIGN CURRENCY<br />
TRANSACTIONS<br />
The Group’s functional currency is the euro. Therefore,<br />
transactions in currenci<strong>es</strong> other than the euro are<br />
deemed to be “foreign currency transactions” and are<br />
recognised by applying the exchange rat<strong>es</strong> prevailing<br />
at the date of the transaction.<br />
At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets<br />
and liabiliti<strong>es</strong> denominated in foreign currenci<strong>es</strong> are<br />
translated to euros at the rat<strong>es</strong> then prevailing.<br />
Any exchange differenc<strong>es</strong> arising on settlement or<br />
translation at the closing rat<strong>es</strong> of monetary items are<br />
recognised in the consolidated income statement for<br />
the year.<br />
I) INCOME TAX<br />
Tax expense (tax income) compris<strong>es</strong> current tax expense<br />
(current tax income) and deferred tax expense<br />
(deferred tax income).<br />
The current income tax expense is the amount payable<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of income tax settlements for a given year.<br />
Tax credits and other tax benefi ts, excluding tax withholdings<br />
and pre-payments, and tax loss carryforwards<br />
from prior years effectively offset in the current year<br />
reduce the current income tax expense.<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
The deferred tax expense or income relat<strong>es</strong> to the recognition<br />
and derecognition of deferred tax assets and liabiliti<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e include temporary differenc<strong>es</strong> measured<br />
at the amount expected to be payable or recoverable on<br />
differenc<strong>es</strong> between the carrying amounts of assets and<br />
liabiliti<strong>es</strong> and their tax bas<strong>es</strong>, and tax loss and tax credit<br />
carryforwards. Th<strong>es</strong>e amounts are measured at the tax<br />
rat<strong>es</strong> that are expected to apply in the period when the<br />
asset is realised or the liability is settled.<br />
Deferred tax liabiliti<strong>es</strong> are recognised for all taxable temporary<br />
differenc<strong>es</strong>, except for those arising from the initial<br />
recognition of goodwill or of other assets and liabiliti<strong>es</strong> in<br />
a transaction that is not a busin<strong>es</strong>s combination and affects<br />
neither accounting profi t (loss) nor taxable profi t (tax<br />
loss), and except for those associated with inv<strong>es</strong>tments<br />
in subsidiari<strong>es</strong>, associat<strong>es</strong> and joint ventur<strong>es</strong> in which the<br />
Parent is able to control the timing of the reversal of the<br />
temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary<br />
difference will not reverse in the for<strong>es</strong>eeable future.<br />
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that<br />
it is considered probable that the Parent will have taxable<br />
profi ts in the future against which the deferred<br />
tax assets can be utilised.<br />
Deferred tax assets and liabiliti<strong>es</strong> arising from transactions<br />
charged or credited directly to equity are also<br />
recognised in equity.<br />
The deferred tax assets recognised are reass<strong>es</strong>sed at<br />
the end of each reporting period and the appropriate<br />
adjustments are made to the extent that there are<br />
doubts as to their future recoverability. Also, unrecognised<br />
deferred tax assets are reass<strong>es</strong>sed at the end of<br />
each reporting period and are recognised to the extent<br />
that it has become probable that they will be recovered<br />
through future taxable profi ts.<br />
Since 2005, the Parent, as head of the AENA Group,<br />
has fi led consolidated tax returns with certain subsid-
iari<strong>es</strong> as they meet the requirements <strong>es</strong>tablished in this<br />
connection.<br />
The compani<strong>es</strong> which form the tax group, together<br />
with the Company in 2009 are as follows:<br />
1. <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional, S.A.<br />
2. Centros Logísticos Aeroportuarios, S.A.<br />
J) REVENUE AND EXPENSES<br />
Revenue and expens<strong>es</strong> are recognised on an accrual<br />
basis, i.e. when the actual fl ow of the related goods<br />
and servic<strong>es</strong> occurs, regardl<strong>es</strong>s of when the r<strong>es</strong>ulting<br />
monetary or fi nancial fl ow aris<strong>es</strong>.<br />
Revenue from the rendering of servic<strong>es</strong> is recognised<br />
by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction<br />
at the end of the reporting period, provided that<br />
the outcome of the transaction can be <strong>es</strong>timated reliably.<br />
Inter<strong>es</strong>t income from fi nancial assets is recognised using<br />
the effective inter<strong>es</strong>t method and dividend income<br />
is recognised when the shareholder’s right to receive<br />
payment has been <strong>es</strong>tablished. Inter<strong>es</strong>t and dividends<br />
from fi nancial assets accrued after the date of acquisition<br />
are recognised as consolidated income.<br />
The nec<strong>es</strong>sary administrative authorisation was not<br />
obtained for certain staff costs incurred and recognised<br />
in 2008 and in prior years.<br />
Contracts for the provision of servic<strong>es</strong><br />
The revenue from the servic<strong>es</strong> contracts of the subsidiary<br />
INECO includ<strong>es</strong> the initial amount of the agreed<br />
revenue, any amendments to the scope of the work<br />
included in the agreement and the amounts related to<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
claims and incentiv<strong>es</strong> which are considered likely, provided<br />
that the latter can be measured reliably.<br />
Also, the costs of th<strong>es</strong>e contracts include the costs<br />
directly related to the agreement, the costs related<br />
to the general activity of the contract which may be<br />
charged to the contract and any other cost which may<br />
be passed on to the customer under the terms and<br />
conditions of the agreement. Contract costs also include<br />
those incurred during the negotiation thereof if<br />
they can be identifi ed and measured reliably, provided<br />
that the client is likely to accept the contract.<br />
The revenue and costs of a servic<strong>es</strong> contract are recognised<br />
by taking into consideration its stage of completion<br />
at the reporting date, when the r<strong>es</strong>ult thereof can<br />
be <strong>es</strong>timated reliably. In this r<strong>es</strong>pect:<br />
- In fi xed price contracts, this circumstance occurs<br />
when the amount of revenue, the stage of completion,<br />
the attributable costs and those still to be incurred<br />
can be measured reliably; the attributable costs<br />
can be clearly identifi ed so that the actual costs incurred<br />
can be compared with the <strong>es</strong>timated costs and<br />
it is probable that the economic benefi ts associated<br />
with the contracts will fl ow to the entity.<br />
- In cost plus contracts, revenue and expens<strong>es</strong> are<br />
recognised when the costs attributable to the contracts,<br />
whether or not specifi cally reimbursable, can be<br />
clearly identifi ed and measured reliably and it is probable<br />
that the economic benefi ts associated with the<br />
contracts will fl ow to the entity.<br />
The subsidiary INECO measur<strong>es</strong> the stage of completion<br />
of the contracts in accordance with the costs incurred.<br />
The chang<strong>es</strong> in forecast contract revenue and expens<strong>es</strong><br />
are recognised prospectively in the current year and<br />
in future years as a change in <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong>.<br />

K) ) PROVISIONS<br />
AND CONTINGENCIES<br />
In preparing its consolidated fi nancial statements, the<br />
Group distinguish<strong>es</strong> between:<br />
a. Provisions: credit balanc<strong>es</strong> covering pr<strong>es</strong>ent obligations<br />
arising from past events with r<strong>es</strong>pect to<br />
which it is probable that an outfl ow of r<strong>es</strong>ourc<strong>es</strong><br />
embodying economic benefi ts that is uncertain as<br />
to its amount and/or timing will be required to settle<br />
the obligations; and.<br />
b. Contingent liabiliti<strong>es</strong>: possible obligations that<br />
arise from past events and whose existence will<br />
be confi rmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence<br />
of one or more future events not wholly<br />
within the Group’s control.<br />
The consolidated fi nancial statements include all<br />
the provisions with r<strong>es</strong>pect to which it is considered<br />
that it is more likely than not that the obligation<br />
will have to be settled. Contingent liabiliti<strong>es</strong> are not<br />
recognised in the consolidated fi nancial statements,<br />
but rather are disclosed to the extent that they are<br />
deemed possible.<br />
Provisions are measured at the pr<strong>es</strong>ent value of the<br />
b<strong>es</strong>t possible <strong>es</strong>timate of the amount required to settle<br />
or transfer the obligation to a third party. Where discounting<br />
is used, adjustments made to provisions are<br />
recognised as inter<strong>es</strong>t cost on an accrual basis.<br />
The compensation to be received from a third party on<br />
settlement of the obligation is recognised as an asset,<br />
provided that there are no doubts that the reimbursement<br />
will take place, unl<strong>es</strong>s there is a legal relationship<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
whereby a portion of the risk has been externalised as<br />
a r<strong>es</strong>ult of which the Group is not liable.<br />
The main <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> made by the Group were as follows:<br />
Provision for tax<strong>es</strong><br />
“Provision for Tax<strong>es</strong>” relat<strong>es</strong> to the amount of tax<br />
debts whose exact amount or date of payment cannot<br />
be determined yet, since they depend on the fulfi<br />
lment of certain conditions. Provisions are recognised<br />
in accordance with the b<strong>es</strong>t <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> available.<br />
Provisions for third-party liability<br />
“Provisions for Third-Party Liability” corr<strong>es</strong>ponds to<br />
the <strong>es</strong>timated amount required for probable or certain<br />
liability arising from litigation in progr<strong>es</strong>s and indemnity<br />
payments or obligations of undetermined amount.<br />
This provision is recognised when the liability aris<strong>es</strong><br />
and in accordance with b<strong>es</strong>t <strong>es</strong>timat<strong>es</strong> based on available<br />
information.<br />
Provisions for employment<br />
benefi t obligations acquired<br />
The cost of the obligations arising from employee benefi<br />
t obligations is recognised on an accrual basis, in accordance<br />
with the b<strong>es</strong>t <strong>es</strong>timate calculated using the<br />
data available to the Group.<br />
The Group undertak<strong>es</strong> to make long-term defi ned<br />
contribution and long-term defi ned benefi t payments<br />
to its employe<strong>es</strong>. Defi ned contribution benefi ts will<br />
give rise to liabiliti<strong>es</strong> due to benefi ts when there are<br />
accrued contributions payable at year-end. Under defi<br />
ned benefi t obligations, the amount of the provision<br />
to be recognised is the difference between the pr<strong>es</strong>ent<br />
value of the obligations assumed and the fair value<br />
of the possible assets relating to the obligations with<br />
which the latter will be settled.
L) TERMINATION BENEFITS<br />
Under current employment legislation, the Group is required<br />
to pay termination benefi ts to employe<strong>es</strong> terminated<br />
under certain conditions. Termination benefi ts<br />
that can be reasonably quantifi ed are recognised as an<br />
expense in the year in which the decision to terminate<br />
the employment relationship is taken. The directors of<br />
the Company and its subsidiari<strong>es</strong> do not for<strong>es</strong>ee any<br />
terminations in the future that might make it nec<strong>es</strong>sary<br />
to recognise a provision in this connection.<br />
M) ACTIVITIES WITH AN<br />
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT<br />
Se considera actividad medioambiental cualquier operación<br />
cuyo propósito principal sea prevenir, reducir o<br />
reparar el daño sobre el medio ambiente.<br />
Environmental activiti<strong>es</strong> are those the purpose of<br />
which is to prevent, reduce or redr<strong>es</strong>s damage to the<br />
environment.<br />
In this r<strong>es</strong>pect, inv<strong>es</strong>tments made in connection with<br />
environmental activiti<strong>es</strong> are measured at acquisition<br />
cost and are capitalised as an addition to non-current<br />
assets in the year in which they are made, using the<br />
methods d<strong>es</strong>cribed in Note 4-b.<br />
The expens<strong>es</strong> arising from environmental protection<br />
and enhancement measur<strong>es</strong> are charged to income in<br />
the year in which they are incurred, regardl<strong>es</strong>s of when<br />
the r<strong>es</strong>ulting monetary or fi nancial fl ow aris<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The provisions for probable or certain third-party liability,<br />
litigation in progr<strong>es</strong>s and outstanding environmental<br />
indemnity payments or obligations of undetermined<br />
amount not covered by the insurance polici<strong>es</strong> taken<br />
out are recognised, where appropriate, when the liability<br />
or obligation giving rise to the indemnity or payment<br />
aris<strong>es</strong>, as d<strong>es</strong>cribed in Note 4-k.<br />

Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
N) GRANTS, DONATIONS<br />
OR GIFTS AND LEGACIES RECEIVED<br />
Non-refundable grants, donations or gifts and legaci<strong>es</strong><br />
related to assets are recognised as such when<br />
there is a specifi c agreement relating to the award<br />
of the grant, the conditions <strong>es</strong>tablished for the<br />
award of the grant have been met and there are no<br />
reasonable doubts in relation to the award thereof.<br />
Since 2009 -in the case of grants awarded for the<br />
construction of assets the execution of which has<br />

as non-refundable in proportion the construction<br />
work completed provided that there are no reasonable<br />
doubts that the construction will be completed<br />
in accordance with the terms and conditions <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
in the conc<strong>es</strong>sion agreement (see Note 2-f). In<br />
general, they are measured at the fair value of the<br />
amount or the asset granted and are initially recognised<br />
as income net of tax recognised directly in equity<br />
and are allocated to profi t or loss in proportion<br />
to the period depreciation on the assets for which<br />
they were granted, except in the case of non-depreciable<br />
assets, the grants for which are allocated to<br />
profi t or loss in the year in which the assets are disposed<br />
of or impairment loss<strong>es</strong> are recognised. Government<br />
grants to compensate costs are recognised<br />
in profi t or loss on a systematic basis over the periods<br />
in which the Group recognis<strong>es</strong> as expens<strong>es</strong> the<br />
related costs for which the grants are intended to<br />
compensate.<br />
Refundable grants, donations or gifts and legaci<strong>es</strong> received<br />
are recognised as liabiliti<strong>es</strong> of the company until<br />
they become non-refundable or are repaid.<br />
Grants related to income are credited to income when<br />
granted, unl<strong>es</strong>s their purpose is to fi nance loss<strong>es</strong> from<br />
operations in future years, in which case they are allocated<br />
to income in those years. If grants are received<br />
to fi nance specifi c expens<strong>es</strong>, they are allocated to income<br />
as the related expens<strong>es</strong> are incurred.<br />

At 2009 and 2008 year-end, the subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo<br />
Internacional had arranged a fi nance lease<br />
with BBVA (see Not<strong>es</strong> 8 and 14) on an automated<br />
fl ight inspection system (console) which is recognised<br />
under “Other Items of Property, Plant and Equipment<br />
– Computer Hardware”.<br />
Also, on 5 July 2007, the subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
acquired an aircraft for EUR 2,590 thousand
which was fi nanced by a loan granted by “La Caixa”<br />
amounting to EUR 3,000 thousand (see Note 14). This<br />
aircraft is recognised under “Other Items of Property,<br />
Plant and Equipment – Transport Equipment”.<br />
As d<strong>es</strong>cribed in Note 4-b, in prior years, the Parent revalued<br />
its property, plant and equipment pursuant to<br />
various legal regulations, in particular, Royal-Decree-<br />
Law 7/1996, of 7 June.<br />
The cost of the cumulative revaluations at 31 December<br />
2009 and 31 December 2008, performed pursuant<br />
to Royal Decree-Law 7/1996, of 7 June, amounted<br />
to EUR 262.47 million and EUR 267.09 million, r<strong>es</strong>pectively.<br />
At 31 December 2009, the accumulated depreciation<br />
amounted to EUR 159.74 million, and its effect<br />
on period depreciation amounted to EUR 3,82 million<br />
(At 31 December 2008 amounted to EUR 155.92 million<br />
and EUR 7.82 million r<strong>es</strong>pectively).<br />
Inter<strong>es</strong>t expens<strong>es</strong> incurred in 2009 totalling EUR 68.63<br />
million (EUR 94.28 million in 2008)were capitalised in<br />
relation to the fi nancing of property, plant and equipment<br />
in the course of construction and EUR 11.29 million<br />
(EUR 14.09 million in 2008) were capitalised in<br />
relation to in-house work performed by the Parent on<br />
its property, plant and equipment.<br />
In relation to capitalised fi nance costs, the Parent considers<br />
that the purpose of all its non-current loans is<br />
to fi nance inv<strong>es</strong>tment. The inter<strong>es</strong>t accrued is capitalised<br />
as an addition to th<strong>es</strong>e assets in proportion to the<br />
property, plant and equipment in the course of construction<br />
taken as a percentage of the total cost of the<br />
inv<strong>es</strong>tment in the year.<br />
Non-current asset additions<br />

amount is charged against a provision for contingenci<strong>es</strong><br />
and charg<strong>es</strong> recognised for the amount payable<br />
(see Note 13.2). Land additions amounting to EUR 25<br />
million relate mainly to the land acquired to extend the<br />
Córdoba airport.<br />

Impairment<br />
2009<br />
The Parent considered that there were no indications<br />
of impairment at 31 December 2009 that would require<br />
the recognition of an impairment loss.<br />
2008<br />
The Parent considered that the impairment loss<strong>es</strong><br />
recognised in the consolidated balance sheet at 2007<br />
year-end amounting to EUR 29.4 million did not meet<br />
the requirements to be maintained as such under the<br />
new Spanish National Chart of Accounts as they were<br />
similar to accelerated depreciation. Consequently, the<br />
Parent recognised this amount as an increase to the<br />
accumulated depreciation of the related assets.<br />
Grants received<br />
2009<br />
At 31 December 2009, the Parent received grants in<br />
connection with its property, plant and equipment and<br />
intangible assets for an accumulated amount of EUR<br />
422 million, of which EUR 22,8 million corr<strong>es</strong>pond to<br />
additions in the year (see Note 11-d). The gross cost of<br />
the assets associated with th<strong>es</strong>e grants is EUR 2.186<br />
million, of which EUR 2.169,9 million relate to property,<br />
plant and equipment, and EUR 16,5 million to intangible<br />
assets.<br />
2008<br />
At 31 December 2008, the Parent received grants associated<br />
with its property, plant and equipment and<br />
intangible assets amounting to EUR 383.3 million (net<br />
of tax), of which EUR 64.5 million relate to additions<br />
in the year (see Note 12-g). The total cost of the assets<br />
associated with th<strong>es</strong>e grants is EUR 1,960 million,
of which EUR 1,942.4 million relate to property, plant<br />
and equipment and EUR 17.6 million relate to intangible<br />
assets.<br />

9.4 INFORMATION ON THE NATURE<br />
AND LEVEL OF RISK OF FINANCIAL<br />
INSTRUMENTS<br />
The main principle of the fi nancial polici<strong>es</strong> of the compani<strong>es</strong><br />
composing the <strong>Aena</strong> Group is based on their<br />
being centralised at the Administration and Finance<br />
department, to the extent that all the fi nancial assets<br />
and liabiliti<strong>es</strong> are arranged and managed by this department,<br />
except for INECO, which has independent fi nancing<br />
polici<strong>es</strong>. The main fi nancial risks are as follows:<br />
A) INTEREST RATE RISK<br />
The Company’s objective in relation to inter<strong>es</strong>t rate risk<br />
management is to optimise the fi nance costs within the<br />
risk limits <strong>es</strong>tablished. The Company do<strong>es</strong> not usually perform<br />
commercial transactions in currenci<strong>es</strong> other than the<br />
euro (unlike subsidiari<strong>es</strong> such as <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
and INECO), and accordingly, the fi nance cost risk is focused<br />
on inter<strong>es</strong>t rate risk in the case of the Parent, the risk<br />
variabl<strong>es</strong> being three-month Euribor (used for non-current<br />
payabl<strong>es</strong>) and one-month Euribor (used in credit faciliti<strong>es</strong>).<br />
The fi nance cost risk is also calculated for the duration<br />
of the Pluriannual Action Plan (PAP), <strong>es</strong>tablishing inter<strong>es</strong>t<br />
rate performance scenarios for the period in qu<strong>es</strong>tion.<br />
Note 14 provid<strong>es</strong> a detail of the inter<strong>es</strong>t rat<strong>es</strong> of<br />
the bank borrowings.<br />
Annual report 2009 323
324<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
The Company has arranged transactions to hedge the<br />
risk of chang<strong>es</strong> in inter<strong>es</strong>t rat<strong>es</strong>, as detailed in Note 10.<br />
B) LIQUIDITY RISK<br />
The main risk variabl<strong>es</strong> are: limitations in the fi nancing<br />
markets, increase in forecast inv<strong>es</strong>tment and decrease<br />
in cash-fl ow generation.<br />
In order to maintain suffi cient liquidity to meet the<br />
fi nancial requirements over a minimum of twelve<br />
months, a long-term fi nancing policy was <strong>es</strong>tablished<br />
by signing agreements or framework agreements with<br />
institutions such as Instituto de Crédito Ofi cial and the<br />
European Inv<strong>es</strong>tment Bank, and by arranging short-<br />
and medium-term liquidity lin<strong>es</strong>.<br />
This risk is managed by closely monitoring the maturity<br />
schedule of the Group’s fi nancial payabl<strong>es</strong>, and<br />
through the proactive management and maintenance<br />
of credit lin<strong>es</strong> that enable the projected liquidity needs<br />
to be covered.<br />
Lastly, the Group mak<strong>es</strong> cash projections on a systematic<br />
basis in order to ass<strong>es</strong>s its cash needs. This liquidity<br />
policy ensur<strong>es</strong> the fulfi lment of the payment obligations<br />
assumed without having to r<strong>es</strong>ort to high inter<strong>es</strong>t-bearing<br />
fi nancing, thereby enabling the liquidity<br />
position to be maintained on an ongoing basis.<br />
C) CREDIT RISK<br />
The risk variable is the credit rating of the counterparty,<br />
and, accordingly, the objective is focused on<br />
minimising the risk of counterparty non-compliance<br />
Annual report 2009<br />
2009 CLASSIFICATION MATURITY (*)<br />
without adversely affecting the price. In general, the<br />
Parent holds its cash and cash equivalents at banks<br />
with high credit ratings.<br />
D) FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK<br />
The subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrolllo Internacional is exposed<br />
to exchange rate fl uctuations which might<br />
affect its sal<strong>es</strong>, profi t, equity and cash fl ows. In this r<strong>es</strong>pect,<br />
this subsidiary has arranged a cash fl ow hedge<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of chang<strong>es</strong> in exchange rat<strong>es</strong> which is d<strong>es</strong>cribed<br />
in Note 10.<br />

The Group us<strong>es</strong> derivative fi nancial instruments to<br />
hedge the risks to which its busin<strong>es</strong>s activiti<strong>es</strong>, operations<br />
and future cash fl ows are exposed.<br />
Derivative fi nancial hedging instruments<br />
The Group has arranged a hedging instrument for cash<br />
fl ows arising from chang<strong>es</strong> in exchange rat<strong>es</strong> in order<br />

<strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional in US dollars for the provision<br />
of certain servic<strong>es</strong> under the various agreements<br />
relating to the management of Mexican airports, and<br />

airport and air traffi c control servic<strong>es</strong>, it was assigned<br />
faciliti<strong>es</strong> and properti<strong>es</strong>, mainly by the Ministry<br />
of Transport, Tourism and Communications (currently<br />
the Ministry for Development), the Ministry of Defence<br />
and the former Spanish Public Airports and Aviation<br />
Agency (OAAN). Therefore, the assigned assets account<br />
relat<strong>es</strong> to assets that did not give rise to any cost<br />
for the Company.<br />
The assets assigned to the Parent at the time of its formation,<br />
based on the appraisal of independent prof<strong>es</strong>sional<br />
experts, amounted to EUR 2,831.6 million.<br />
The equity account includ<strong>es</strong>, in addition to other subsequent<br />
chang<strong>es</strong> amounting to EUR 18.7 million, EUR<br />
248.7 million repr<strong>es</strong>enting the valuation difference between<br />
the rights and obligations to which the Parent<br />
was subrogated at the time of its formation.<br />
B) BYLAW RESERVES<br />
Th<strong>es</strong>e r<strong>es</strong>erv<strong>es</strong> were recognised in accordance with the<br />
Parent’s bylaws, and their objective is to fi nance future<br />
inv<strong>es</strong>tments in airport and air traffi c control infrastructur<strong>es</strong>.<br />
C) REVALUATION RESERVE ROYAL<br />
DECREE-LAW 7/1996 OF 7 JUNE 1996<br />
Pursuant to Royal Decree-Law 7/1996, of 7 June, on<br />
urgent tax measur<strong>es</strong> and measur<strong>es</strong> to develop and deregulate<br />
economic activiti<strong>es</strong>, in 1996 the Company revalued<br />
its property, plant and equipment. The initial<br />
net revaluation surplus amounted to EUR 300.9 million<br />
(see Note 6).<br />
The tax inspection authoriti<strong>es</strong> had a period of three<br />
years from 31 December 1996 to review the balance<br />
of this r<strong>es</strong>erve. Since the three-year period has<br />
elapsed, this balance can be used to offset loss<strong>es</strong> or<br />
to increase the Company’s equity. Once ten years<br />
have elapsed, the balance may be allocated to unr<strong>es</strong>tricted<br />
r<strong>es</strong>erv<strong>es</strong>.<br />
The balance of the revaluation r<strong>es</strong>erve account may<br />
not be distributed, either directly or indirectly, until the<br />
revaluation surplus has been realised.

Under Article 154 of the Company’s Fifth Collective<br />
Labour Agreement, all employe<strong>es</strong> aged between 60<br />
and 64 years of age who, pursuant to current legislation<br />
are entitled to do so, may retire early voluntarily<br />
and receive a termination benefi t which, combined<br />
with the consolidated entitlements under the Pension<br />
Plan at the date of termination of their contracts, is<br />
equivalent to four months’ salary, calculated on the<br />
basis of their basic pay plus their long-service bonus,<br />
for every year remaining until they reach 64 years of<br />
age, or the related proportional part.<br />
In 2004 the early retirement bonus<strong>es</strong> were externalised<br />
through a single premium life insurance policy<br />

Article 138 of the Company’s Fifth Collective Labour<br />
Agreement and Article 141 of the First Air Traffi c Controllers’<br />
Collective Labour Agreement provide for certain<br />
long-service bonus<strong>es</strong> for servic<strong>es</strong> effectively rendered for<br />
25 and 30 years in the fi rst case, and for 25 and 35 years<br />
in the second. The provision recognised for this obligation<br />
amounted to EUR 972 thousand (EUR 978 thousand<br />
in 2008), of which EUR 375 thousand (EUR 356<br />
thousand in 2008) relate to the fi nance cost, calculated<br />
on the basis of an actuarial study. The main assumptions<br />
used to obtain the actuarial calculation are as follows:<br />

Participation bonus<strong>es</strong><br />
Under agreements entered into between the Company<br />
and the Air Traffi c Controllers’ Labour Union, certain<br />
bonus<strong>es</strong> were agreed upon for the period 2002-2003,<br />
accruable for the extension of working hours during<br />
th<strong>es</strong>e periods. Th<strong>es</strong>e bonus agreements were extended<br />
succ<strong>es</strong>sively without interruption, for periods of<br />
one year, until the fi nal extension from 1 August 2009<br />
to 31 July 2010. The bonus<strong>es</strong> are paid over the two<br />
years following the year in which they are earned, in<br />
equal portions. The balance of this heading relat<strong>es</strong> to<br />
the bonus<strong>es</strong> which will be paid from 1 January 2011,<br />
and the bonus<strong>es</strong> payable in 2010 were transferred to<br />
short term. The provision for the 2009 bonus<strong>es</strong> was<br />
charged to “Staff Costs” in the accompanying consolidated<br />
income statement at 31 December 2009.<br />
Special paid leave<br />
Articl<strong>es</strong> 166 to 174 of the First Air Traffi c Controllers’<br />
Collective Labour Agreement provide for a pre-retirement<br />
situation that may be availed of by employe<strong>es</strong><br />
who meet certain conditions on reaching 52 years of<br />
age. Th<strong>es</strong>e employe<strong>es</strong> will not render any servic<strong>es</strong> until<br />
their retirement date, except in special cas<strong>es</strong>, and will<br />
be entitled to have their basic salari<strong>es</strong> reviewed on an<br />
annual basis.<br />
The Company recognised a provision in 2008 for the<br />
actuarial value of the benefi ts to the employe<strong>es</strong> who<br />
are expected to avail themselv<strong>es</strong> of this leave based on<br />
historical experience. The main assumptions used to<br />
obtain the actuarial calculation are as follows:<br />

In the <strong>es</strong>timate of the actuarial value at 31 December<br />
2009 the suspension of the right to obtain this leave<br />
provided for in Royal Decree-Law 1/2010, of 5 February<br />
(see Note 2-c) was taken into account.<br />
The amount recognised directly in equity in 2009 for<br />
the actuarial loss<strong>es</strong> relating to this provision totalled<br />
EUR 17,315 thousand (2008: EUR 11,406 thousand).<br />
Other employee benefi t obligations<br />
Under Article 150 of the Company’s Third Collective<br />
Labour Agreement, when employe<strong>es</strong> retire or are<br />
granted permanent sick leave, they will receive an<br />
amount equal to three monthly salary payments calculated<br />
on the basis of their basic pay plus their longservice<br />
bonus.<br />
Pursuant to the legislation relating to the externalisation<br />
of pension commitments and to the agreement<br />
between <strong>Aena</strong> management and the labour union<br />
repr<strong>es</strong>entativ<strong>es</strong> to set up a pension plan, the defi nedcontribution<br />
pension plan for <strong>Aena</strong>’s employe<strong>es</strong> was<br />
set up on 28 July 2003.<br />
Under Article 149 of the Fifth Collective Labour Agreement,<br />
any employee who has to his credit at least 360<br />
calendar days of service recognised by <strong>Aena</strong> may become<br />
a participant of the <strong>Aena</strong> Employe<strong>es</strong> Pension<br />
Plan. The pension plan covers the contingenci<strong>es</strong> of retirement,<br />
disability (referring to the degre<strong>es</strong> of full or<br />
absolute permanent incapacity for work and comprehensive<br />
disability) and death.
In 2009 the Parent made contributions amounting to<br />
EUR 6.21 million (5.91 million in 2008) to this Pension<br />
Fund and paid benefi ts totalling EUR 1.76 million (1.46<br />
million in 2008) At 31 December 2009, the balance<br />
of the pension plan position account was EUR 48.03<br />
million (39.2 million in 2008). In addition, the number<br />
of participants and benefi ciari<strong>es</strong> amounted to EUR<br />
10,684 at the end of 2009 (end of 2008: EUR 10,135).<br />
B) OTHER PROVISIONS<br />
“Other Provisions”, which amount to EUR 16,603<br />
thousand in 2009 and EUR 21,487 thousand in 2008,<br />
relat<strong>es</strong> to the <strong>es</strong>timated amount of tax debts whose<br />
exact amount cannot yet be determined or whose<br />
date of payment is uncertain.<br />
This heading also includ<strong>es</strong> EUR 2,908 thousand in<br />
2009 and EUR 1,187 thousand in 2008, relating to<br />
the <strong>es</strong>timated amount required for probable or certain<br />

consider that the provision is suffi cient to cover the<br />
risks of litigation in progr<strong>es</strong>s, third-party liability and<br />
current commitments known at the date of preparation<br />
of th<strong>es</strong>e fi nancial statements and do not consider<br />
that the current claims, taken as a whole, will give rise<br />
to additional liabiliti<strong>es</strong> that might have a material effect<br />
on the 2009 fi nancial statements.<br />
C) PROVISIONS FOR<br />
ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS<br />
“Provisions for Environmental Costs” in 2009 includ<strong>es</strong><br />
EUR 97.4 million recognised( EUR 52.5 million in 2008)<br />
to cover the costs for<strong>es</strong>een to carry out the sound insulation<br />
work required to meet the environmental legislation<br />
in force. Short-term provisions for contingenci<strong>es</strong><br />
and charg<strong>es</strong> include a provision totalling EUR 43.8 million<br />
(EUR 35.2 million in 2008) to cover th<strong>es</strong>e liabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
maturing in under 12 months (see Note 13.2). The<br />
amounts recognised in this connection are capitalised<br />
as an addition to the cost of the inv<strong>es</strong>tment, since they<br />
are costs nec<strong>es</strong>sarily incurred to develop the projects.<br />

early retirement with its employe<strong>es</strong> whereby personnel<br />
with employment contracts reaching 60, 61, 62<br />
or 63 years of age in 2007 who met the requirements<br />
<strong>es</strong>tablished by the social security authoriti<strong>es</strong><br />
for qualifying for the state retirement pension at the<br />
age of 60 could, on a voluntary basis and subject<br />
to agreement by the Company, avail themselv<strong>es</strong> of<br />
this option and receive a lump sum to compensate<br />
them for the decrease in their retirement pension<br />
as a r<strong>es</strong>ult of bringing forward their retirement. In<br />
2008 the Parent approved a further initiative under<br />
the same conditions. The Company has <strong>es</strong>timated<br />
and recognised the liability arising from this agreement<br />
in the provision for early retirement plan account.<br />
No initiative was approved in this connection<br />
in 2009.<br />
At 31 December 2009, the balance relat<strong>es</strong> in full to the<br />
Social Action Fund.<br />
B) PROVISION FOR SECURITY CHARGE<br />
This charge has been applied since 1 May 1997 to<br />
outgoing passengers who embark at Spanish airports<br />
in accordance with Law 13/1996, of 30 December,<br />
on Tax, Administrative and Social Security<br />
Measur<strong>es</strong> and, since 1999, 50% of the amounts col-<br />

The aforementioned provision includ<strong>es</strong> the <strong>es</strong>timated<br />
amount payable to the tax authoriti<strong>es</strong> once the Parent<br />
has collected the security charge amounts billed in<br />
2009 and yet to be collected at year-end.<br />

“Other Provisions” relat<strong>es</strong> to EUR 141 million (EUR<br />
196.5 million in 2008) recognised to cover the difference<br />
between the original expropriation value of the<br />
land expropriated at Madrid, Barcelona and Malaga<br />
airports and the b<strong>es</strong>t <strong>es</strong>timate of the just compensation<br />
<strong>es</strong>tablished for this land for<strong>es</strong>eeably to be paid in<br />
the short term, and EUR 43.8 million (EUR 35.2 million<br />
in 2008) which were recognised to cover the sound insulation<br />
work required to meet the applicable environmental<br />
legislation.
13.3 CONTINGENCIES<br />
As a r<strong>es</strong>ult of the actions that will have to be carried<br />
out to comply with the EISs (Environmental Impact<br />
Statement) approved for the various airport expansion<br />
and improvement construction projects, the Parent<br />
will be obliged to make certain inv<strong>es</strong>tments required<br />
to minimise the impact of noise on the dwellings affected<br />
by such projects. At 31 December 2009 and<br />
31 December 2008, the Parent was involved in various<br />
claims proceedings which, should the outcome<br />
thereof be unfavourable to <strong>Aena</strong>, could give rise to liabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
which were not possible to quantify at 31 December<br />
2009 and 31 December 2008. In any case, the<br />
aforementioned liabiliti<strong>es</strong> would repr<strong>es</strong>ent an increase<br />
in the cost of non-current assets and, therefore, under<br />
no circumstanc<strong>es</strong> would they have an immediate impact<br />
on the equity of the Parent.<br />
13.4 CONTINGENT ASSETS<br />
ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM<br />
This item includ<strong>es</strong> the rights (or obligations) arising<br />
from varianc<strong>es</strong> in the <strong>es</strong>timated r<strong>es</strong>ults used to set<br />
Legal Information<br />
Consolidated Financial Statements<br />
the unit charg<strong>es</strong> for en-route navigation aids and<br />
the actual r<strong>es</strong>ults ultimately obtained in the provision<br />
of en-route air navigation servic<strong>es</strong>. The aforementioned<br />
rights and obligations are recovered<br />
through future chang<strong>es</strong> between two to six years<br />
after they arise. The Parent considers that this type<br />
of asset do<strong>es</strong> not meet all the requirements for recognition<br />
in the balance sheet since its recoverability<br />
depends on future events such as chang<strong>es</strong> in rat<strong>es</strong><br />
and air traffic.<br />
At 31 December 2009 the balance in r<strong>es</strong>pect of this<br />
item amounted to EUR 282.399 thousand ( EUR<br />
196.208 thousand at 31 December 2008)<br />
Also, in accordance with Commission Regulation (CE)<br />
no. 1794/2006, of 6 December 2006, laying down a<br />
common charging scheme for air navigation servic<strong>es</strong>,<br />
the non-recurring effects r<strong>es</strong>ulting from the introduction<br />
of International Accounting Standards may<br />
be included as an addition to the route charge over<br />
a period not exceeding 15 years. Consequently, the<br />
Parent expects to be able to recover EUR 309,311<br />
thousand (EUR 333,104 thousand in 2008) through<br />
future charg<strong>es</strong>.<br />

15.7 YEARS OPEN FOR REVIEW<br />
AND TAX AUDITS<br />
Under current legislation, tax<strong>es</strong> cannot be deemed to<br />
have been defi nitively settled until the tax returns fi led<br />
have been reviewed by the tax authoriti<strong>es</strong> or until the<br />
four-year statute-of-limitations period has expired. In<br />
this regard, on 11 February 2009 the Department of<br />
Tax and Customs Control notifi ed the Parent of the<br />
commencement of an audit for all tax<strong>es</strong> for 2005 and<br />
2006 and, in addition, for income tax for 2002, 2003<br />
and 2004. This tax audit is currently in progr<strong>es</strong>s.<br />
At the end of 2009, the Company had 2002 and subsequent<br />
years open for review for income tax and<br />
2005 and subsequent years for all other tax<strong>es</strong> applicable<br />
to it.<br />
The subsidiary INECO is currently being audited for the<br />
main tax<strong>es</strong> applicable to it for 2004, 2005 and 2006.<br />
The directors consider that the tax audits will not give<br />
rise to any liabiliti<strong>es</strong> additional to those already recog-
nised. The Company has 2005 to 2009 open for review<br />
by the tax authoriti<strong>es</strong> for income tax, VAT and<br />
personal income tax withholdings.<br />
At the end of 2009, the subsidiary <strong>Aena</strong> D<strong>es</strong>arrollo Internacional<br />
S.A. had 2005 and subsequent years open for<br />
review for by the tax authoriti<strong>es</strong> for income tax and 2006,<br />
2007, 2008 and 2009 for the other tax<strong>es</strong> applicable to it.<br />
At the end of 2009, the subsidiary CLASA had 2005<br />
and subsequent years open for review for by the<br />
tax authoriti<strong>es</strong> for income tax and 2006 and subsequent<br />
years for the other tax<strong>es</strong> applicable to it. The<br />
Parent’s directors consider that the tax returns for the<br />
aforementioned tax<strong>es</strong> have been fi led correctly and,<br />
therefore, even in the event of discrepanci<strong>es</strong> in the interpretation<br />
of current tax legislation in relation to the<br />
tax treatment afforded to certain transactions, such liabiliti<strong>es</strong><br />
as might arise would not have a material effect<br />
on the accompanying fi nancial statements.<br />
The Economic Inter<strong>es</strong>t Grouping (“EIG”) and subsidiary<br />
CRIDA has 2009 open for review by the tax authoriti<strong>es</strong><br />
for all the tax<strong>es</strong> applicable to it. The EIG’s<br />
directors and their tax advisors consider that no material<br />
contingenci<strong>es</strong> would arise in the event of a tax audit,<br />
in connection with the possible interpretations of<br />
the tax legislation applicable to the transactions performed<br />
by the EIG.<br />
