PRESENTAT I ON OF THE GROUP

GROUP ACTIVITIES

International development takes place through: ◆ TAV Airports, which has significant development opportunities with the extension of the concession periods of certain assets as well as new projects (for more details on TAV Airports’ strategy and forecasts, see the section below on TAV Airports); ◆ GMR Airports, which has several growth levers by exploiting the growth potential in India, the dynamism of Indian airlines and the privatisation opportunities in India (for more details on GMR Airports’ strategy, see the section below relating to GMR Airports). This international development, which is based on the strong organic growth momentum of TAV Airports and GMR Airports, drives the Group’s long-term value creation. Thus, the Group expects the contribution of international activities to the Group’s current operating income to increase from 15% in 2019, to a level of between 25% and 35% in 2025, between 35% and 45% in 2030 and between 40% and 50% in 2035. 1.1.5.2 ADP International Wholly-owned by Aéroports de Paris, ADP International, in addition to its role of overseeing expatriate employees, acts as a holding company, with the following shareholdings. It also covers airport service contracts. Assets carried by ADP International Belgium: a 25.6% stake in the Belgian company Liège Airport since 1999. This company manages the Liège-Bierset airport, which is the 5 th European airport for cargo traffic with more than 1.4 million tonnes annually. ADP International has specific rights via partnership agreements. ADP International renewed these agreements in 2015 for a period of 15 years, with the concession contract ending in 2040. Cargo traffic continued to grow in 2021 with a 26% increase compared to 2020; Guinea: a 29% stake in the Guinean company Société Guinéenne de Gestion et d’Exploitation de l’Aéroport de Conakry (SOGEAC) and a technical support contract for the management of the airport. ADP International is assisting SOGEAC with work to upgrade its facilities. In 2021, Groupe ADP obtained a new temporary extension to the concession contract entrusted to SOGEAC until 2022. In 2021, the airport welcomed 0.5 million passengers, i.e. 76.5% of 2019 traffic. Under the terms of the shareholders’ agreement signed in February 2020, the Republic of Guinea, Africa50 and Groupe ADP have, respectively, a 34% and 33% interest in the new Société de Gestion de l’Aéroport de Gbessia (SOGEAG), which will lead the project to modernise and extend the Gbessia International Airport. During a presentation ceremony of the project in Conakry on 17 February 2020, the 25-year concession agreement for the development and financing of the project was signed in the presence of the three partners. The project includes the construction and operation of a new terminal for domestic and international passengers and the related infrastructure: a new terminal for freight, a parking area, the renovation and extension of the runway and of the main taxiways. The new terminal will have a capacity of one million passengers, in order to meet traffic forecasts up to 2031;

Groupe ADP can also capitalise on its current airport network to support its strategy. The diversity of the Groupe ADP network makes it possible to benefit from real-time and live information on the state of global traffic, changes in the expectations of our customers, airlines and passengers, and thus to adapt our offer in all areas and have a greater overall influence on the definition of future international operational standards. The context of the pandemic has shown how permanent exchanges between the network’s platforms strengthen the group’s resilience and ability to adapt to business conditions, thus enabling it to facilitate the resumption of traffic. Management of international activities focused on financial and operational performance The One Group approach, effective since 1 January 2020 within Groupe ADP, aims to promote the internationalisation of the company, in order to strengthen its industrial and financial performance, and offer broad development prospects to its employees. In terms of steering international activities, for Groupe ADP, in a context where the conditions of its activity are changing, it is a question of accelerating its consolidation and its development, by guaranteeing its financial robustness and its operational performance. This strategy is based on an industrial logic and, in particular, on the integration of the activities carried out within international investments, such as TAV Airports and Airport International Group, as well as the operational partnership with the GMR group. It should make it possible to promote synergies and cooperation, strengthen the capacity for innovation, optimise resources and free up room for manoeuvre to continue the development of the entire company. With this in mind, Groupe ADP’s strategy is structured around three components: ◆ development projects, including non-airport developments and those of service subsidiaries, handled by the Development Department; ◆ managing the network of airport platforms in France and abroad, which are operated by the Group, where applicable through service contracts, and managing the operational performance, robustness and innovation model at Group level, under the responsibility of the General Management of Operations; ◆ the implementation of the One Group approach through 10 “group” sectors organised around a family of business lines and systematically taking into account expertise related to innovation and sustainable development. These business lines operate in a matrix mode with hierarchical as well as functional reporting. They thus contribute to the Group’s development. As part of this strategy, ADP International holds equity securities and service contracts, and supports expatriate employees. As part of the “2025 Pioneers” strategic roadmap 1 , the group will strengthen its airport network by ensuring the long-term solidity of the various assets, with the aim of stabilising the average maturity of the concession portfolio at 30 years.
