RNS Number:3083M Alpha Airports Group PLC 15 June 2000 ALPHA AIRPORTS GROUP PLC TRADING UPDATE FOR AGM At the Annual General Meeting of ALPHA Airports Group Plc held today, the Chairman Rodney Galpin made the following comments: "Overall trading in the Group for the early months of 2000/01 has been in line with our expectations, with the exception of Paris Orly. In my statement at the time of the Preliminary Results in March, I reported on the need to restructure our Paris Orly kitchen. This has arisen due to the policy of Aeroports de Paris to focus long haul international airline activity at the expanding Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. This has meant the transfer of many airlines from Paris Orly airport to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport and a resultant major loss of business from our Paris Orly kitchen. ALPHA has looked at every opportunity to create a smaller viable kitchen, remodel the business with non-airline catering or joint venture with competing caterers. These efforts have not been successful and a trading loss of up to #1.3m will be incurred in the first half of 2000/01. As a result we have started a three month consultation process with our Paris Orly employees regarding the future of catering operations. Over the past two years we have warned that the net cost of a full closure could be up to #2.5m. However, we are taking steps to mitigate this cost. Any such charges will be reflected in the Group's results in the first half of 2000/01. Elsewhere, I am pleased to report that, over the past few months, ALPHA has been successful in securing some significant contract gains. Our ALPHA Travel Retail business has been awarded a contract by TBI plc to run retail operations at Belfast International, Cardiff International and Stockholm Skavsta airports. This contract is expected to add some #11m per annum to sales revenues. We have also reached agreement with RoadChef for a 10 year contract to operate confectionery, tobacco and newspaper stores at RoadChef's UK network of 20 motorway service areas. This contract will add some #35m per annum to sales revenues and is a major step in our expansion strategy into the wider UK travel retail market. Our ALPHA In-flight Retail business continues to gain ground in its UK market place with the award of the in-flight retail concessions for British Midland and Virgin Sun, where sales are expected to be #2.5m per annum. In addition, we have secured the concessions to operate the duty and tax free bonds for our airline customers at both Cardiff and Luton, bringing the number of UK bonds we operate to 15. ALPHA Flight Services has commenced in-flight catering services at Cork, Ireland and is building a #0.5m dedicated kitchen. We have also agreed a 50/50 joint-venture with Virgin Express at Brussels airport to provide in- flight catering and in-flight retailing services. In Australia, we have acquired a sixth kitchen at Cairns to extend our successful network operation.
