Consolidated Revenues
Consolidated Revenues for 1Q23 increased 18.9% YoY, or Ps.1,023.6 million, to Ps.6,449.4 million, mainly due to the following increases:
•21.9% in revenues from aeronautical services to Ps.3,877.4 million. Mexico contributed Ps.2,865.6 million, while Puerto Rico and Colombia accounted for Ps.528.3 million and Ps.483.5 million, respectively; and
•21.6% in revenues from non-aeronautical services to Ps.2,422.6 million. Mexico contributed Ps.1,826.1 million, while Puerto Rico and Colombia accounted for Ps.422.8 million and Ps.173.7 million, respectively.
This increase was partially offset by a 40.6%, or Ps.101.9 million, YoY decline in construction services revenues in Mexico to Ps.149.4 million.
Excluding revenues from construction services, for which there is an equivalent expense recorded under IFRS accounting standards, total revenues would have increased 21.8% YoY, to Ps.6,300.0 million.
Excluding revenues from construction services, Mexico represented 74.5% of ASUR´s total revenues in 1Q23, while Puerto Rico and Colombia represented 15.1% and 10.4%, respectively.
Commercial Revenues in 1Q23 increased 21.7% YoY to Ps.2,228.4 million, mainly reflecting the 19.2% increase in passenger traffic. This increase was driven by higher commercial revenues across ASUR´s countries of operations: 23.6% to Ps.1,6636.2 million in Mexico, 18.5% to Ps.420.6 million in Puerto Rico and 13.1% to Ps.171.5 million in Colombia.
Commercial Revenues per Passenger was Ps.123.2 in 1Q23, compared with Ps.120.9 in 1Q22.
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses, including construction costs, increased 16.1% YoY, or Ps.338.2 million, to Ps.2,435.7 million in 1Q23.
Excluding construction costs, operating costs and expenses increased 23.8% YoY, or Ps.440.1 million reflecting the following factors:
•Mexico: increased 21.9%, or Ps.243.4 million, mainly reflecting higher costs in connection to personnel, technical assistance, energy, concession fees, security, maintenance, materials and supplies, taxes and duties, insurance and surety bond expenses. Higher professional fees, together with higher cost of sales from directly operated stores also contributed to the increase.
•Puerto Rico: increased by 46.8%, or Ps.191.4 million, mainly reflecting the effect of last year's expense recovery due to the application of the CRRSAA Act for an amount of Ps.196.4 million. Excluding this effect, expenses would have increased 0.8% or Ps.5.0 million, as higher personnel costs, professional fees, materials and supplies offset a decrease in the maintenance provision.
•Colombia: increased 1.6%, or Ps.5.3 million, mainly reflecting higher concession fee payments and professional fees.
Cost of Services increased 38.5%, or Ps.312.4 million, mainly reflecting the impact from the recovery of expenses in 1Q22 in connection with the application of the CRRSAA Act for an amount of Ps.196.4 million. The following costs also increased during the period: personnel costs, surveillance and cleaning services, maintenance and conservation, electricity, materials and supplies, taxes and duties; as well as in the cost of revenues from concession stores operated directly by ASUR.
Construction Costs declined 40.6% YoY, or Ps.101.9 million. This was mainly driven by YoY declines of 52.8%, or Ps.93.2 million in Mexico and 18.5%, or Ps.13.6 million in Puerto Rico, partially offset by an increase of 407.3%, or Ps.4.9 million in Colombia.
Administrative Expenses that reflect administrative costs in Mexico increased 11.5% YoY.
Consolidated Technical Assistance increased by 27.4% YoY mainly reflecting an increase in EBITDA in Mexico during 1Q24.
Concession Fees increased 19.1% YoY, principally due to increases of 29.0% in Mexico, 10.6% in Colombia and 4.7% in Puerto Rico, mainly due to higher regulated revenues which is a factor in the calculation of the concession fee.
Depreciation and Amortization increased 3.7% YoY, or Ps.18.4 million, principally due to an increase of 18.9%, or Ps.40.6 million in Mexico, partly offset by declines of 5.5%, or Ps.5.3 million in Colombia and 9.1%, or Ps.16.9 million in Puerto Rico.
Consolidated Operating Profit and EBITDA
ASUR reported a Consolidated Operating Profit of Ps.4,013.6 million in 1Q23 up from Ps.3,373.8 million in 1Q22, with the operating margin stable year-on-year at 62.2% in 1Q22.
Adjusted Operating Margin, which excludes the effect of IFRIC 12 with respect to the construction of or improvements to concessioned assets in Mexico, Colombia and Puerto Rico was 63.7% in 1Q23 compared with 65.2% in 1Q22. Adjusted operating margin is calculated as operating profit or loss divided by total revenues less construction services revenues.
EBITDA increased 23.2%, or Ps.854.1 million, to Ps.4,530.4 million in 1Q23 from Ps.3,676.3 million in 1Q22.

In 1Q23 ASUR reported a Ps.527.8 million Consolidated Comprehensive Financing Loss, compared to a Ps.241.6 million loss in 1Q22.
During 1Q23 ASUR reported a foreign exchange loss of Ps.486.9 million, resulting from the 7.3% quarter-end appreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar (4.1% average appreciation) during the period, together with a U.S. dollar net asset position. This compares to a Ps.95.9 million foreign exchange loss in 1Q22 resulting from the 0.5% quarter-end appreciation of the Mexican peso (0.2% average depreciation) on a U.S. dollar net asset position.
Interest income increased Ps.184.7 million, or 229.8% YoY reflecting a higher cash balance position.
Interest expense increased Ps.79.9 million, or 35.3% YoY, due to interest payments made under a loan obtained in October 2021 by the Cancun entity in Mexico, and under Aerostar’s senior notes issued in July 2022, in Puerto Rico, respectively.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes for 1Q23 increased Ps.101.1 million YoY, principally due to the following variations:
•A Ps.169.6 million increase in income taxes, reflecting mainly a higher taxable income base in Mexico and Colombia resulting from the YoY increase in revenues.
•A Ps.68.5 million decline in deferred income taxes, principally reflecting an Ps.88.7 million income tax resulting from the increase in the applicable tax rate in Colombia to 35.0% from 31.0% in 1Q22. This was partially offset by an increase in tax benefits in certain airports in México of Ps.20.9 million.
Majority Net Income
ASUR reported Majority Net Income of Ps.2,512.4 million in 1Q23, compared to Ps. 2,193.7 million in 1Q22.

Accounts Receivables
Accounts receivables increased 44.4% YoY in 1Q23, reflecting higher business activity as passenger traffic increased across ASUR’ s airport network.
On February 28 and March 29, 2023, Viva Colombia and Ultra Air suspended operations. During 2022, these two companies accounted for 17.4% and 1.9% of passenger traffic in Colombia, respectively. At the end of 1Q23, these two companies owed ASUR Ps.12.8 million and Ps.9.2 million, respectively.
Accounts receivables in Puerto Rico increased primarily due to the recognition in 4Q22 of other revenues of Ps.300.4 million, derived from a judgment ruled in favor of Aerostar in connection with its right to charge a fee for each gallon of aviation fuel that was dispatched at the airport during 2013 until 2021, in accordance with IFRS IAS 37 and USGAAP ASC-450-30-25-1.

ASUR’s Mexico operations reported a Ps.437.8 million Comprehensive Financing Loss in 1Q23, compared to a Ps.121.3 million loss in 1Q22. This was mainly due to a foreign exchange loss of Ps.486.9 million in 1Q23 resulting from the 7.3% quarter-end appreciation of the Mexican peso (4.1% average appreciation) against the U.S. dollar on a foreign currency net asset position. This compares to a Ps.95.9 million foreign exchange loss in 1Q22, resulting from the 0.5% quarter-end appreciation of the Mexican peso during that period (0.2% depreciation at quarter-end) against the U.S. dollar on a foreign currency net asset position.
Interest expenses increased 42.6% YoY, or Ps.40.4 million reflecting interest rate increases. Interest income increased 165.1% YoY or Ps.114.8 million, resulting from a higher cash balance. This mainly reflects the Ps.408.9 million in dividends payments and Ps.1,970.1 million in reimbursement of investments, both received from Aerostar in Puerto Rico in October 2022.

Colombia Tariff Regulation
Functions of the Special Administrative Unit of Civil Aeronautics include establishing and collecting fees, tariffs, and rights for the provision of aeronautical and airport services or those that are generated by the concessions, authorizations, licenses, or any other type of income or property. As a result, Resolution 04530, issued on September 21, 2007, establishes tariffs for the rights and the rates conceded to the concessionaire of the following airports: José María Córdova of Rionegro, Enrique Olaya Herrera of Medellín, Los Garzones of Montería, El Caraño of Quibdó, Antonio Roldán Betancourt of Carepa, and Las Brujas of Corozal. This resolution also established the methodology to update and the mechanisms to collect such fees, tariffs, and rights.
Airplan's regulated revenues amounted to Ps.483.5 million in 1Q23.
Definitions
Concession Services Agreements (IFRIC 12 interpretation). In Mexico and Puerto Rico, ASUR is required by IFRIC 12 to include in its income statement an income line, “Construction Revenues,” reflecting the revenue from construction or improvements to concessioned assets made during the relevant period. The same amount is recognized under the expense line “Construction Costs” because ASUR hires third parties to provide construction services. Because equal amounts of Construction Revenues and Construction Costs have been included in ASUR's income statement as a result of the application of IFRIC 12, the amount of Construction Revenues does not have an impact on EBITDA, but it does have an impact on EBITDA Margin. In Colombia, “Construction Revenues” include the recognition of the revenue to which the concessionaire is entitled for carrying out the infrastructure works in the development of the concession, while “Construction Costs” represents the actual costs incurred in the execution of such additions or improvements to the concessioned assets.
Majority Net Income reflects ASUR’s equity interests in each of its subsidiaries and therefore excludes the 40% interest in Aerostar that is owned by other shareholders. Other than Aerostar, ASUR owns (directly or indirectly) 100% of its subsidiaries.
EBITDA means net income before provision for taxes, deferred taxes, profit sharing, non-ordinary items, participation in the results of associates, comprehensive financing cost, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as an indicator of liquidity. Our management believes that EBITDA provides a useful measure that is widely used by investors and analysts to evaluate our performance and compare it with other companies. EBITDA is not defined under U.S. GAAP or IFRS and may be calculated differently by different companies.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing EBITDA by total revenues excluding construction services revenues for Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Colombia and excludes the effect of IFRIC 12 with respect to the construction or improvements to concessioned assets. ASUR is required by IFRIC 12 to include in its income statement an income line reflecting the revenue from construction or improvements to concessioned assets made during the relevant period. The same amount is recognized under the expense line “Construction Costs” because ASUR hires third parties to provide construction services. In Mexico and Puerto Rico, because equal amounts of Construction Revenues and Construction Costs have been included in ASUR's income statement as a result of the application of IFRIC 12, the amount of Construction Revenues does not have an impact on EBITDA, but it does have an impact on EBITDA Margin, as the increase in revenues that relates to Construction Revenues does not result in a corresponding increase in EBITDA. In Colombia, construction revenues do have an impact on EBITDA, as construction revenues include a reasonable margin over the actual cost of construction. Like EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be considered as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as an indicator of liquidity and is not defined under U.S. GAAP or IFRS and may be calculated differently by different companies.
