RISK IDENTIFICATION

RISK MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT

In support of the ERA 2016-2020, the strategic plan “CONNECT 2020” establishes the goals of Groupe ADP for the period 2016-2020. The Finance, Management and Strategy Division guarantees that the ERA is fulfilled and is consistent with the strategic plan. It carries out the group’s strategic and financial control, structured around road maps. Moreover, Aéroports de Paris annually consults airlines on the topics of service quality, investment programme and pricing proposals during economic consultative commissions. The pricing proposal is then submitted to the Independent Supervisory Authority for Airport Fees (ASI) for approval.

The missions of Aéroport de Paris fall within the scope of the Economic Regulation Agreement (ERA), in line with articles L. 6325-2 of the French transport code and R. 224-4 of the French Civil Aviation Code. The ERA 2016-2020 was signed with the government authorities on 31 August 2015. The airport fee cap takes into account cost, revenue and investment projections, as well as quality of service targets. The regulation allows for the airport operator to receive fair compensation on capital invested within the regulated scope, assessed based on the weighted average cost of its capital. However no assurance can be given as to the level of fees that Government authorities will authorise it to apply after 2020. In addition, in circumstances upsetting the economics of the contract, the ERA could be revised or even cancelled early. Moreover, litigation may be filed seeking to annul some pricing decisions. If successful or confirmed, this may have, at least temporarily, an adverse impact on the group’s income. Please refer to the paragraph in Chapter 20 on “Legal and arbitration proceedings” of the 2017 Registration Document.
