passengers.

All four of the airports in which AviAlliance held stakes as of 31 December 2016 set new passenger records. Athens International Airport topped the 20-million mark for the first time: the airport serving the Greek capital – which last year celebrated the 15th anniversary of the start of operations – registered 20.02 million passengers, equivalent to a year- on-year increase of more than ten percent. Budapest Air-port posted even sharper growth, of over 11 percent, to take its passenger total to 11.4 million. In view of the fact that the increase in passenger volumes for all the airports in Europe averaged just over five percent, the Athens and Budapest figures are particularly impressive.

At Düsseldorf Airport, the number of passengers grew by 4.5 percent to 23.5 million, while the corresponding figures for Hamburg Airport were 3.9 percent and a total of 16.2 mil-lion. So both of these airports exceeded the average rise for all German airports taken together, which was 3.4 percent.

In all, the airports in Athens, Budapest, Düsseldorf and Hamburg handled 71.2 million passengers, representing an increase of more than seven percent compared with 2015.

The good performance of our airports in 2016 was not con-fined to higher passenger volumes, it was also reflected by several prizes and other distinctions. In the category of air-ports with between four and 20 million passengers, Athens International Airport was the winner in both the World Routes Marketing Awards and the Routes Europe Marketing Awards.

This means that – with 16 prizes in twelve years – it has now been honored at Routes more frequently than any other air-port. At the Skytrax World Airport Awards in 2016, Budapest Airport was voted the best airport in Eastern Europe for the third time in succession, clear evidence that passengers ac-knowledge the ongoing efforts to provide efficient, customer-oriented services.

Contributing to the business and operational development of the airports in our portfolio and providing active support for the individual managements form one of the key pillars of our company’s endeavors. Another pillar is expanding our portfolio and acquiring an interest in airports all over the world. In this field, we have now achieved our first success on the American continent: since May 2017, AviAlliance has a 40-percent stake in Aerostar Airport Holdings, which oper-ates the airport of San Juan in Puerto Rico – the biggest and busiest airport in the Caribbean. In our capacity as industrial investor, we will ensure that in its future development, this airport, too, benefits from our active assistance. And we are confident that in the years ahead, this fine success will be followed by others.

Cordially yours,

AviAlliance

is one of the world’s leading private industrial air port in-vestors. The company participates in airport priva t izations world wide and acquires concessions.

Portfolio

Airports are attractive assets that provide stable returns. This is why privatizations and airport investments increas-ingly attract interest among investors. AviAlliance recog-nized the opportunities in the aviation market at an early stage, and systematically built up a balanced portfolio of airport holdings. As of the end of 2016, the company held shares in the airports of Athens, Budapest, Düsseldorf and Hamburg.

Public acceptance of an airport in the region plays an essen-tial role in its economic success. Against this background, AviAlliance has a clear policy of responsible environmental management, and uses natural resources sparingly in the development, expansion, and operation of its airports. Com-pliance with international standards and seeking a dialog with residents and local partners are an integral part of every project.

Expertise

Airport management is becoming increasingly complex, which poses major challenges for operators. Competent sup port is vital in coping with such demands. At the same time, pro-perly managed airports make attractive investments. With its unique expertise, AviAlliance has al ready established a strong position in this promising market. AviAlliance is a com-mitted, long-term partner for public institutions and financial investors in privatization projects throughout each airport’s entire value chain.

AviAlliance was founded in 1997, when international con struc-tion services provider HOCHTIEF consolidated its air port man -agement activities into an independent corporate division. Since 2013, AviAlliance has been a subsidiary of PSP Invest-ments, Canada. PSP Investments is one of Cana da’s largest pension investment managers, with 135.6 bil lion Canadian dollars of assets under management as of 31 March 2017.

Hamburg Airport launches punctuality offensiveWorking together to reduce delays after 11 p.m.: In conjunction with the five biggest airlines operating from the airport, Ham-burg Airport has pledged to avoid delays as much as possible in the future. With this voluntary commitment, Hamburg Air-port is a pioneer in Germany in promoting collaboration be-tween airports and airlines in reducing delays.

Athens International Airport honoredAt Routes Europe 2016, Athens International Airport was once again declared the winner in the category of airports handling between four and 20 million passengers. And in Sep-tember came victory in the same category at World Routes 2016. This was the 16th time in twelve years that the airport has been honored for its outstanding marketing performance. This makes it the most fre-quently accoladed airport within the frame-work of the Routes conference.

Investing in sustainability and the futureAt Hamburg Airport, the main apron – with a total surface area of 330,000 square meters – is being renewed. The new surface will enable aircraft to taxi better and more quietly, thus reducing noise and exhaust emissions. In the period up to 2020, the airport is investing around 120 million euros in a modern and sustainable infrastructure – all without disrupting ongoing operations.

Athens International Airport celebrates its 15th anniversaryOn 28 March, Athens International Air-port celebrated the 15th anniversary of the start of aviation operations. Some figures highlight the fifteen-year success story of the biggest Greek airport: Over 218 million passengers, 2.7 million air-craft movements, close to 1.5 million tons of air cargo. Athens International Air-port was the world’s first airport project based on public-private partnership.

Düsseldorf Airport lays groundwork for the futureGermany’s third-largest airport aims to grow and increase its capac-ity. It is planning to utilize daytime take-off and landing slots more flexibly and in a more demand-oriented way in order to meet the in-creased mobility requirements of people and businesses. An official application to this effect was submitted in February 2015, and in April 2016, the re levant state ministry assessed this as ready for display in the public involvement procedure. A decision is due to be reached by the end of 2017.

Hamburg Airport Cargo Center goes into operationHamburg Airport sets another milestone: The new Hamburg Airport Cargo Center (HACC) can handle up to 150,000 tons of freight a year – more than twice as much as before. It re-presents an investment of over 50 million euros. With the new facility, Hamburg Airport aims to further strength its position as an important logistics hub.

Plane PullMuscle-power and serious effort were in demand at the first Plane Pull at Athens International Airport – a contest between thirteen teams each with 25 strong men and women to pull a 100-ton Airbus A300-600 ten meters across the apron. It all served a good cause, raising money for the charity initiative “The Smile of the Child”.

JUNE06Athens International Airport helps job beginnersOnce again, Athens International Airport has offered 100 young people aged between 19 and 29 six months of paid work experience and on-the-on-job training. In a program entitled “Airport Praxis 2”, the young people – school-leavers, students and graduates – are given an insight into various departments and can thus gain initial vocational experience with one of the most important employers in the Greek capital.

Record month for Düsseldorf and HamburgIts performance on 7 October gave Düsseldorf Airport good reason to celebrate: it handled a total of 89,500 passengers and 720 take-offs and land ings, more than ever before on a single day in the previous 90 years. Hamburg Airport also set a new record: 14 October was the busiest day in its 105-year history, with 65,000 passengers.

08New logistics center at Budapest AirportWithin the framework of the bud:2020 investment program, Budapest Airport is cooperating with DHL Express and TNT Express in the con struction of state-of-the-art office and ware house facilities for the two distribution giants. Simul-taneously, the airport started preparations for the develop-ment of an air cargo center to be called Cargo City, sched-uled for opening at the end of 2018.

AUGUST

JULY07 Budapest Airport launches investment program bud:2020Budapest Airport is one of the most dynamic airports in the entire region. July brought the start of a development program named bud:2020 and aimed at creating ideal conditions for further growth. In the next five years, the airport will invest 180 million euros in its infrastructure. As early as May, the airport had announced the construction of a new pier. Another bud:2020 flagship project is a new hotel to be built in the immediate vicinity of the ter-minal by 2018.

Airport Runway RunOn 3 September, the fourth Budapest Airport Runway Run offered a prestigious prize: the title of “The Fastest Airline in the World”. This was won by the 20-member Aer Lingus team. In all, 976 runners from airlines, airports and aviation companies took part in the charity event.

Systematic environmental protectionFor their efforts in steadily cutting CO2 emissions and exhibiting exemplary commitment to combating climate change, three of the airports in our portfolio have again received the third level of certification (Optimization) of the Airport Carbon Accreditation program: Athens International Airport, Budapest Airport and Hamburg Airport. The program, launched in 2009 by the ACI Europe (Air-ports Council International), is the only institutionally-endorsed carbon manage-ment certification standard for airports. There are four levels of award. Düssel-dorf Airport has already several times achieved the second level (Reduction).

Hamburg Airport gets name affix “Helmut Schmidt”On 10 November 2016 – the first anniversary of the former German chancellor’s death – Hamburg Airport received the name affix “Helmut Schmidt”. The name is highlighted in large lettering alongside the airport logo. Helmut Schmidt, who was an Honorary Citizen of Hamburg, played a major role in shaping the airport. As early as 1952, as the city’s Head of Transport, he laid the political course for locating Lufthansa Technik at Hamburg Airport.

Passenger records for our airportsIn 2016, the airports in which AviAlliance holds stakes handled more passengers than ever before, with a combined total of 71.2 million people taking off from or landing at our airports in Athens, Budapest, Düsseldorf and Hamburg. That corres-ponds to a year-on-year rise of over seven percent.

All four airports set new passenger records: Athens International Airport regis tered 20.02 million passengers, 10.7 percent up on the prior-year figure. Budapest Air-port, with a volume of 11.4 million and growth of 11.1 percent, also set a new high. At Düsseldorf Airport, the number of passengers climbed 4.5 percent to 23.5 million, while the relevant figures for Hamburg Airport were 3.9 percent and 16.2 million.

AviAlliance provides help and support AviAlliance again made donations to support charitable organizations. In Athens, it provided help for the children’s aid organization “The Smile of the Child”, which champions the rights of needy children and young people. Financial assistance also went to the TrebeCafé, a help center for girls and young women who live on the street, run by the social welfare organization Diakonie Düsseldorf. And in co-operation with Düsseldorf Airport, AviAlliance donated child-friendly furniture for the grounds of the Montessori Children’s House in Meerbusch.

Düsseldorf Airport drives employmentAround 21,600 people work at Düsseldorf Airport, which is thus the biggest workplace in the city and one of the biggest in the state of Northrhine-West-phalia. This is revealed by a study conducted by Cologne University’s Insti-tute for Retail Research. Altogether, more than 56,000 jobs in the region de-pend on the airport’s existence.

Airport City, the business park at Düsseldorf Airport, provides workplaces for around 3,500 people.
