2) Q1 2016 12
Q1 2016 in line with expectations despite continuing market pressures Revenue per Available Seat Kilometre (RASK) and Yield remained stable while ASK significantly down Impacted significantly by damaging dispute over codeshare flights Protracted influence of geopolitical events Downward trend in touristic destinations Load Factor improvement of 0.2 percentage points Continuing improvement in asset utilisation from network optimisation Ancillary Revenues increased by 2 EUR per passenger Tangible impact of enhancement of customer proposition and system development Cost per Available Seat Kilometre (CASK) increased due to reduction in capacity (ASKs) Management continue to address the underlying cost base to create a sustainable future platform Fuel upside expected in Q3 and Q4; partially offset by negative FX movement 13
Despite headwinds, Net Result improved by 13% versus prior year Total revenue [ m.] EBITDAR & EBIT [ m.] Net Result [ m.] 793.7-7% 737.1 Q1 2015 Q1 2016 +155% 7.7-8% +13% -13.9 Total revenue EBITDAR -159.9 EBIT -172.2-210.1 Net result -182.3 Decrease in revenue driven by capacity reduction of 7.2% Ancillary revenues strongly improved versus prior year Operational business improvement and lower fuel cost lead to positive EBITDAR development Negative EBIT development due to revenue decrease has been partially offset by management of cost Increased net result due to lower interest expense and currency & derivatives effects 14
Significant improvement of ancillary revenues Stable Revenue per ASK development Further negative impact of codeshare dispute and dip in tourism traffic due to geopolitical event that led to short term capacity shifts away from impacted areas Strong evolution of Ancillary Revenue offsets yield shortfall in a declining yield environment Q1 2015 Q1 2016 118.8-2.0% 116.4 7.01-1.7% 6.89 8.06-0.1% 8.05 7.13 +28.7% 9.18 6.71 +0.1% 6.71 Average Fare ( ) Flight revenue Yield/RPK ( c) Flight revenue, Ancillary and other Revenue Yield/RPK ( c) Ancillary Revenues per Passenger ( ) 1 R/ASK ( c) 1 (1) Total revenue 15
