Who Are We? Airports Council International North America (ACI-NA) represents local, regional and state governing bodies that own and operate commercial airports in the United States and Canada. ACI-NA s 194 airport members enplane more than 95 percent of the domestic and virtually all the international airline passenger and cargo traffic in North America. The mission of ACI-NA is to advocate policies and provide services that strengthen the ability of commercial airports to serve their passengers, customers and communities. ACI-NA is the largest of the five worldwide regions of Airports Council International (ACI). 2
ACI Benchmarking Survey Developed in 2005 from TPA s Airport Initiatives Measurement (AIM) survey and further refined through efforts by DFW, DEN, and BNA These efforts led to the revision of the FAA Form 127 in 2009 to align with the survey Used by airports primarily for financial and operational benchmarking and to more easily comply with FAA Form 127 reporting requirements Future enhancements through the ACRP 01-13 project will move the data online and more easily query the data for benchmarking purposes 3

Participating Large-Hub Airports To analyze trends, we included the 20 airports that have consistently participated in the survey since 2009: SEA MSP BOS SFO LAS SLC DEN DTW PHL BWI DCA IAD SAN PHX DFW IAH TPA MCO FLL MIA 17
Non-Aeronautical Revenue % Total Revenue Total revenue: 5.0% CAGR from 2009 to 2013 Non-aeronautical revenue: 4.6% CAGR Aeronautical revenue: 5.4% CAGR Median declined from 47% in 2009 to 45% in 2013 KPI6 Airports in proximity to FL theme parks, being the most visited destination in the US, experienced the highest % of non-aero revenue 18
Non-Aeronautical Revenue per EPAX Median non-aeronautical revenue per EPAX in 2013: $9.23 Increase from $8.83 in 2009, a 1.1% CAGR, in-line with the median growth in enplanements KPI7 Airports with highest revenue figures are those in cities with higher costs of living, which likely translates to higher prices 19
Non-Aeronautical Revenue per EPAX Airports of all hub sizes have seen an increase in median nonaeronautical revenue per EPAX since 2009 Small-hub airports have the highest median non-aeronautical revenue figures per EPAX This is true for parking and rental car revenue, but reversed for concessions 20
Poll: Where do you see the greatest opportunity to increase non-aeronautical revenue at your airport? Parking Parking Oil wells Concessions Land use Find oil under the airfield Parking Parking Parking Parking Transportation Network Companies Parking Ground leases Parking Concessions 21
Parking Revenue % of Non-Aeronautical Revenue Most important source of non-aeronautical revenue for many large-hub airports Relatively consistent median of 42%, with some airports generating between 50-60% of their non-aeronautical revenue from parking KPI61 22
Parking Revenue / Transaction In 2013, revenue per transaction ranged from $12-$48 Median transaction value remained relatively consistent between 2009-2012, but increased $4 (19%) from 2012 to 2013 KPI50 Increasing rates, optimizing pricing structure, and adding products 23
Poll: What has your airport done to increase parking revenue? Increased rates 9 Added premium products 4 Added spaces 1 Other 1 24
Concessions Revenue % of Non-Aeronautical Revenue Concession revenue accounts for 20% of non-aeronautical revenue at large-hub airports Miami generates very high duty free and services revenue, while Las Vegas generated over $20 million in revenue from slot machines in 2013 KPI43 25
Concessions Revenue per EPAX The airport with the highest concession revenue per EPAX generated more than 5 times the airport with the lowest Despite the economic slowdown, concession revenue per EPAX grew at a 1.7% CAGR KPI45 26
Rental Car Revenue % of Non-Aeronautical Revenue Rental car s share of non-aeronautical revenue has fallen slightly since 2009 For Orlando, one of the largest rental car markets, it has grown from 31% in 2009 to 37% in 2013 KPI64 Gross rental car revenue at Orlando per O&D passenger increased from $17 to $21 in the past 5 years 27
Cost per Enplaned Passenger Median CPE for large-hub airports increased 15% from $8.74 in 2009 to more than $10 in 2013 Of the 20 large-hub airports in this analysis, only three experienced a decline in CPE from 2012 (two of which had fewer enplanements) KPI1 Large variation in CPE due to several important factors, including capital programs and debt profiles, that, combined with activity, drive such differences 28
PC&B % Total Operating Costs PC&B expenses have accounted for a declining percentage of total operating costs from 43% in 2010 to 39% in 2013 KPI91 This may be attributed to increases in other expenses (such as supplies and materials or communications and utilities) outpacing PC&B costs or a greater reliance on contracted labor 29
PC&B Expense per Employee PC&B expenses per employee have increased at a 2% CAGR since 2009 2013 median was $105K with a range that varied based on location/cost of living and airport structure (government vs. stand-alone) KPI92 30
Contract Services % Total Operating Costs Contract services costs now represent 39% of total operating costs up from 30% in 2009 Some contracts that airports have outsourced include maintenance (custodial, elevators, etc.) and services (IT, engineering, parking and shuttle buses, etc.) KPI10 31
Ratio of Contract Services Costs to PC&B Costs Between 2009 and 2013, the median contract services expenses grew significantly faster than PC&B expenses As a result, the ratio of contract services to PC&B increased from 60% to 90% KPI11 Large-hub airports appear to be increasing reliance on contract staff 32
Ratio of Contract Services Costs to PC&B Costs Medium Small Contract services total about 40% of PC&B expenses at small-hub airports, but nearly 70% at medium-hub and 90% at large-hub airports Medium- and small-hub airports are not showing the same trend of increasing reliance on contracted services 33
