Traffic down in 2012 on weak domestic segment but positive signs from long haul traffic
2012 passenger traffic (-2,2%) was impacted by a strong decrease in domestic segment throughout 2012 (-7,9%), only partially offset by resilient international traffic (+1,2%) with Extra-UE traffic rising 3,1% driven by fast growing markets

Alitalia and other domestic carriers had a negative year…
• 2012 weak Italian GDP (-2,3%) affected performance of domestic traffic (33% of total traffic) and in particular Fiumicino's hub-carrier that boasts a 55% share of total Italian traffic
• Domestic traffic was also hit by the consequences of Wind Jet's bankruptcy in August 2012 and Blue Panorama's procedure for composition with creditors

2012 provided evidence of Fiumicino’s untapped long haul market potential
• The leisure market (60,9% of 2012 total traffic) is growing thanks to the attractiveness of Rome that is one of 5 most sought-after tourist destinations worldwide
• Fiumicino registered an increase in transfer passengers, but still suffers from major traffic leakage effects with 3,3 million passengers reaching their destinations through other hubs. The total potential passengers' market will be addressed with the new planned infrastructures

Rome's potential on traffic growth lies in expanding long haul routes
• Global airport traffic is expected to grow both in the mid-term and in the long-term. In terms of revenues per kilometers the traffic will grow on average 4,7% p.a. in the next 20 years mainly due to long haul traffic from emerging markets
• The growth of long haul traffic to/from emerging markets is linked to the increasing wealth of the middle class that looks at Rome (one of the 5 most sought-after tourist destination worldwide) as one of the most attractive destinations. Fiumicino ranks third in Europe, after London and Paris, on international arrivals

Rome airport system passenger traffic trend (Mln/pax)
• On the ground of solid global trends passenger traffic is expected to reach around 100 million passengers by 2044 (CAGR +2,7%)
• Passenger traffic is estimated to grow by 2016 at an average annual rate of +0,7 % with domestic traffic expected to remain subdued and international traffic constrained by capacity limits
• The projections on traffic growth assume the presence of a hub-carrier. In 2012 Alitalia still held 45,8% share of FCO passenger traffic, but its strategy still remains unclear

The growing passenger traffic will require an efficient development of a long-term infrastructure plan
Growth passenger traffic and capacity at Fiumicino
• The growing passenger traffic forecasts will require a timely and efficient development of a long-term infrastructure plan that has been outlined with the technical expertise of Changi (the Singapore airport's management company)
• Well conceived staged approach to capacity expansion to meet growth and traffic demand

ADR's long-term infrastructure plan will be developed under favorable market conditions
• The long term infrastructure plan will be developed under favorable market conditions. The largest airports in Europe will be completely saturated by 2018 whilst the demand will grow with an average annual rate of 3,5% vs. 2,5% of the supply. On current European airports plans (including ADR) the infrastructure are insufficient to met expected traffic growth in the next coming years
• Fiumicino has presented the largest long-term airport capacity expansion plan in Europe

Investments and management actions will improve service quality and environmental protection
FCO quality vs. other airports*
• The long-term infrastructure development plan and management actions will target also substantial improvements in service quality
• FCO quality performance is today below Europe's and world's standards and ADR management has already launched a series of projects aimed at improving quality and environmental performance targets (including waiting time at baggage delivery, waiting time at security check, noise control, waste management and energy efficiency).

brand and (iii) design of retail offer layouyt/footprint and is implementing several business initiatives with the objective of improving services and quality and maximizing profitability in line with international best practice
Special RetailSpecial Retail
Enlargement of commercial offer in terms of sqm (e.g. construction of the new Pier C with about 11.500 sqm dedicated to commercial activities and opening of the first "commercial plaza" in Fiumicino Airport)
Allocation of spaces by category in line with international best practice

Gemina-ADR's promising future with some challenges in the near term
Result-oriented management culture to be strengthen. The overall support of Gemina's shareholder Changi will be crucial to achieve highest quality standards
To execute timely and efficiently an highly concentrated investment plan and in an amount significantly higher than historical levels, with an "investment machine" almost stuck for the last 10 years
To secure long-term funding to a significant investment plan at competitive terms and conditions
While Gemina-ADR is confident on the capabilities to attract new airlines, the presence of a Hub-carrier remains a crucial element for the full development of the business plan

Rationale of the potential integration with Atlantia
Gemina-ADR will develop the biggest airport project in Europe allowing to meet the growing demand of global traffic, supported by a long-term regulatory framework
Looking ahead, aware of our strengths and responsibilities, Gemina started an analysis of industrial, operating and financial merits of a potential integration with Atlantia, aimed at creating value for all stakeholders
In this context, Gemina is evaluating Atlantia’s strengths in terms of (i) management skills in executing large investment programs on critical infrastructures, also considering the capabilities of the group's engineering and construction companies and (ii) experience in securing funding at competitive costs in the international capital markets
Relevant analyses are expected to be completed by mid March 2013
