FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AIA will persist over the next years to apply successfully its strategy of value-for-money services aiming at a profitable
growth while ensuring high levels of safety and security, customer satisfaction, state-of-the-art technological applications
and corporate responsibility. Over the previous years, AIA has also successfully exported its know-how to other airports
around the world, thus further strengthening corporate profile and reputation, providing motivation to its personnel and
creating incremental financial value. Within the scope of pursuing such external activities, AIA will continue to pursue
business opportunities at Airport projects in Greece or abroad.
From the outset of the concession of this airport, AIA has demonstrated a combined success in all aspects. During 2009,
in contrast to the unfavourable macroeconomic situation in Greece and abroad, Athens International Airport was the
source of the few exceptions of positive business news, reporting satisfactory end-of-year traffic with minimal losses, high
profits and liquidity and an unparalleled contribution to the national and local economy as proved by the 2009 study of
the Athens University of Economics and Business. Resisting the negative 2010 forecast for the Greek economy, AIA expects
to remain a positive contributor of financial and non-financial value to all stakeholders and the Greek State at large.
