Business Update on COVID-19
Travel Restrictions Imposed by Governments to Mitigate the Impact of COVID-19
Since March 16, 2020, various governments have issued flight restrictions for different regions of the world to limit the breakout of the COVID-19 virus. With respect to the airports ASUR operates:
The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requires negative COVID-19 tests for all air passengers entering the US as of January 26, 2021. According to the CDC, pre- and post-trip testing is a critical layer in slowing the introduction and spread of COVID-19. This strategy is consistent with the current phase of the pandemic and intended to more effectively protect the health of US citizens. As of December 6, 2021, all air passengers 2 years or older with a flight departing to the US from a foreign country, regardless of their nationality and vaccination status, are required show a negative COVID-19 viral test result taken no more than 1 day before travel, or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 in the past 90 days, before boarding their flight. In addition, non-U.S. citizens must be fully vaccinated with an accepted COVID-19 vaccine to travel to the United States by plane, and only limited exceptions apply. Several Mexican airports have implemented COVID-19 test sites certified by the government, which are operated by third parties, who have been granted the space to provide this service at the airports of Cancun, Merida, Veracruz and Oaxaca.
On January 28, 2022, the Governor of Puerto Rico issued an executive order updating the control measures related to the entry of passengers to Puerto Rico's airports starting February 2, 2022. For this purpose, fully vaccinated passengers arriving at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport or any other airport on the Island on a flight from any other jurisdiction of the United States, will have to present evidence of being fully vaccinated with an accepted COVID-19 vaccine, and are no longer required to show a negative result of COVID-19 from a qualified SARS-CoV2 viral test or antigen tests. Unvaccinated travelers entering on domestic flights are still required to show negative test results taken within 48 hours prior to arrival, or take one within 48 hours of arrival and quarantine while awaiting results. Unvaccinated travelers who do not get tested within the 48-hour window are required to quarantine for 7 days and are subject to applicable sanctions.
Passengers can also present a positive COVID-19 result from the past three months prior to the flight, along with a letter from their doctor or a government health official certifying their recovery. All passengers over the age of two must wear a mask at all times and must complete the form entitled "Traveler's Declaration" from the Puerto Rico Department of Health. Passengers arriving from international destinations must present a negative COVID-19 test taken within one day prior to departure along with proof of vaccination.
In Colombia, passenger commercial flights had been reestablished at all of ASUR’s Colombian airports as of October 2, 2020. International flights were reestablished on September 16, 2020, with the Rionegro Airport resuming international flights on September 19, 2020. Stating June 2, 2021, a negative COVID-19 test is no longer required to enter the country. For travelers leaving the country and depending on the destination, requirements, if any, may include an antigen or PCR test, or proof of vaccination.
México, the United States and Colombia may issue or reissue flight restrictions similar to those issued in other parts of the world, which could cause a significant reduction in our operations.
Impact of COVID-19 on ASUR’s FY21 Passenger Traffic
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the travel industry as governments have introduced travel bans and restrictions. As a result, ASUR’s passenger traffic declined in the second half of March 2020 and continued to decline dramatically throughout its airport network in the following months. However, traffic has progressively recovered since June 2020. The table below shows the YoY change in passenger traffic during FY21:

Accounts Receivables
Starting in mid-March of 2020, some of the airlines and other clients and tenants that operate in ASUR’s airports asked for assistance, either through discounts on payments owed to ASUR or by an extension on those payments. Three of ASUR’s principal airline customers, Aeromexico, Avianca Holdings and LATAM Airlines Group, have filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United States, although they have continued making payments in the ordinary course, as permitted by the relevant courts. The Company remains in commercial discussions with those clients and tenants regarding their contracts. Notwithstanding these discussions, ASUR believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations and continue operating in the normal course. Accounts receivables increased 38.3% YoY in 4Q21, reflecting the increasing business activity as passenger traffic recovered across ASUR’ s airport network.

Consolidated Revenues
Consolidated Revenues for 4Q21 increased 59.6% YoY, or Ps.2,535.9.0 million, to Ps.6,789.5 million and 49.4%, or Ps.2,244.9 million when compared to the pre-pandemic levels of 4Q19. The YoY increase was mainly due to the following increases:
• | 108.2% in revenues from non-aeronautical services to Ps.1,883.3 million. Mexico contributed Ps.1,381.6 million, while Puerto Rico and Colombia accounted for Ps.388.5 million and Ps.143.2 million, respectively; |
• | 87.6% in revenues from aeronautical services to Ps.2,880.5 million. Mexico contributed Ps.1,945.3 million, while Puerto Rico and Colombia contributed Ps.527.5 million and Ps.407.7 million, respectively; and |
• | 11.7%, or Ps.211.9 million in construction services revenues to Ps.2,025.8 million, principally in Mexico. |
Excluding revenues from construction services, for which there is an equivalent expense recorded under IFRS accounting standards, total revenues would have increased 95.3% YoY to Ps.4,763.8 million.
Compared to 4Q19 pre-pandemic levels, revenues excluding construction services increased 24.5%, driven by a 33.5% increase in revenues from non-aeronautical services and a 19.3% increase in revenues from aeronautical services. Excluding revenues from construction services, Mexico accounted for 69.8% of total revenues in 4Q21, while Puerto Rico and Colombia represented 18.6% and 11.2%, respectively.
Commercial Revenues in 4Q21 increased 111.8% YoY to Ps.1,744.01 million, mainly reflecting the 93.6% recovery in passenger traffic. Compared to 4Q19 pre-pandemic levels, commercial revenues increased 34.1%. Commercial revenues increased YoY across ASUR’s regions of operations: 112.4% to Ps.1,244.8 million in Mexico, 116.7% to Ps.356.3 million in Puerto Rico, and 96.1% to Ps.142.9 million in Colombia.
Commercial Revenues per Passenger was Ps.115.8 in 4Q21, compared to Ps.105.8 in 4Q20 and Ps.92.3 in 4Q19.
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses during 4Q21, including construction costs, increased 27.0% YoY, or Ps.850.8 million, to Ps.4,000.1 million, and increased 56.5%, or Ps.1,444.8 million, when compared to the pre-pandemic levels of 4Q19.
Excluding construction costs, operating costs and expenses increased 47.8% YoY, or Ps.638.9 million, and increased 7.5% compared to 4Q19. The YoY increase was mainly due to the following variations:
• | Mexico: increased 30.0%, or Ps.239.3 million, mainly due to (i) higher technical assistance and concession fees together with increases in energy, maintenance and security expenses, and (ii) higher cost of sales from directly operated stores, together with higher social security contributions. |
• | Puerto Rico: increased 116.5%, or Ps.331.0 million, principally reflecting a Ps.227.0 million reimbursement of expenses under the Cares Act grant in 4Q20. Without this benefit, costs in 4Q21 would have increased 20.3%, or Ps.104.1 million, mainly due to an increase in the maintenance provision in the quarter, higher cost of sales of directly operated convenience stores, depreciation and amortization and concession fees. |
• | Colombia: increased 26.9%, or Ps.68.6 million, mainly due to a 165.7%, or Ps.65.4 million increase in concession fees. |
Cost of Services increased 59.5% YoY, or Ps.372.8 million. The increase in cost of services was principally due to a 347.5%, or Ps.300.8 million increase in Puerto Rico, mainly reflecting the reimbursement of expenses for a total of Ps.227.0 million under the Cares Act grant in 4Q20. Without this benefit, cost of services in Puerto Rico would have increased 23.5%, or Ps.73.9 million, reflecting increases in the maintenance provision together with an increase in cost of sales of directly operated stores. Mexico also contributed to the increase in cost of services through a 17.2%, or Ps.73.8 million increase, mainly reflecting higher energy, maintenance, and security expenses, together with higher cost of sales from directly operated stores, and higher social security contributions. This was partially offset by a 1.7%, or Ps.1.9 million decline in cost of services in Colombia.
Construction Costs increased 11.7% YoY, or Ps.211.9 million. This was mainly driven by YoY increases of 11.1%, or Ps.193.8 million in Mexico, and 26.2% or Ps.18.8 million in Puerto Rico, partially offset by a decline of 28.9% or Ps.0.8 million in Colombia.
Administrative Expenses that reflect administrative costs in Mexico declined 1.6% YoY.
Consolidated Technical Assistance increased 135.3% YoY mainly reflecting higher EBITDA in Mexico in 4Q21.
Concession Fees increased 104.4% YoY, principally due to increases of 101.5% in Mexico, 165.7% in Colombia and 33.8% in Puerto Rico, mainly due to higher regulated revenues, a factor in the calculation of the fee.
Depreciation and Amortization increased 9.4% YoY, or Ps.42.7 million, principally due to increases of 9.4%, or Ps.17.1 million in Mexico, 11.8% or Ps.19.6 million in Puerto Rico and 5.7% or Ps.5.9 million in Colombia.
Consolidated Operating Profit (Loss) and EBITDA
In 4Q21, ASUR reported a 152.6% increase in Consolidated Operating Profit to Ps.2,789.4 million resulting in an Operating Margin of 41.1%, compared to a Ps.1,104.3 million profit and a 26.0% margin in 4Q20.
This performance resulted mainly from the recovery in passenger traffic following the gradual increase in travel demand as COVID-19 vaccination programs advance worldwide, and the resulting increase in revenues together with a marginal increase in costs.
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, and which is calculated as operating profit or loss divided by total revenues less construction services revenues, was 58.6% in 4Q21 compared with 45.3% in 4Q20 and 52.0% in 4Q19.
EBITDA increased 146.8%, or Ps.1,954.4 million, to Ps.3,285.4 million in 4Q21 from Ps.1,330.9 million in 4Q20. Compared to 4Q19, EBITDA increased 34.8%. By country of operations, EBITDA increased YoY by 146.6% or Ps.1,481.5 million to Ps.2,492.2 million in Mexico, by 77,3% or Ps.199.2 million, to Ps.457.0 million in Puerto Rico, and by 438.9%, or Ps.273.8 million to Ps.336.1 million in Colombia. Consolidated EBITDA margin in 4Q21 was 48.4% compared to 31.3% in 4Q20 and 53.6% in 4Q19.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which excludes the effect of IFRIC 12 with respect to the construction of or improvements to concessioned assets in Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Colombia, was 69.0% in 4Q21, compared to 54.6% in 4Q20, and 63.7% in 4Q19.

In 4Q21 ASUR reported a Ps.156.0 million Consolidated Comprehensive Financing Loss, compared to a Ps.359.2 million loss in 4Q20.
During 4Q21 ASUR reported a foreign exchange gain of Ps.1.1 million, resulting from the 0.9% quarterly average depreciation of the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar (0.5% quarter-end appreciation) during the period together with a U.S. dollar net asset position. This compares to a Ps.191.1 million foreign exchange loss in 4Q20 resulting from the 7.2% quarterly average appreciation of the Mexican peso (10.1% quarter-end appreciation) on a U.S. dollar net asset position.
Interest expense increased Ps.13.9 million, or 6.6% YoY, mainly driven by a Ps.27.6 million or 45.3% increase in interest payments in Mexico due to a Ps.690.0 million drawdown in lines of credit in October 2021. This was partially offset by a Ps.15.0 million, or 41.6% decline in interest expenses in Colombia on fair value loan repayments recognized under IFRS 3.
Interest income increased Ps.24.8 million, or 59.0% YoY reflecting a higher cash balance position.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes for 4Q21 increased Ps.396.2 million YoY, principally due to the combination of:
• | A Ps.482.4 million increase in income taxes, reflecting mainly a higher taxable income base in Mexico and Colombia resulting from the YoY recovery in revenues following the negative impact of COVID-19 in 4Q20. |
• | A Ps.86.2 million decline in deferred income taxes. This mainly reflects a Ps.107.7 million decrease in deferred income taxes in Mexico, principally related to a higher tax benefit in certain airports, and a Ps.1.5 million tax benefit in Puerto Rico, partially offset by a decline of 23.1 million in the tax benefit in Puerto Rico. |
Majority Net Income (Loss)
ASUR reported Majority Net Income of Ps.2,013.1 million for 4Q21, compared to a Majority Net Income of Ps.503.1 million in 4Q20. This resulted in earnings per common share in 4Q21 of Ps.6.7104, or earnings per ADS of US$3.2786 (one ADS represents ten series B common shares). This compares with earnings per share of Ps.1.6769 and earnings per ADS of US$0.8193 for the same period last year.
Net Income (Loss)
ASUR reported Net Income of Ps.2,072.2 million in 4Q21, an increase of Ps.1,492.1 million or 257.2%, from Ps.580.1 million in 4Q20.

In 4Q21, ASUR’s Mexico operations reported a Ps.27.1 million Comprehensive Financing Loss, compared to a Ps.211.2 million loss in 4Q20. This was mainly due to a foreign exchange gain of Ps.0.9 million in 4Q21 resulting from the 0.9% average quarterly depreciation of the Mexican peso (0.5% appreciation at quarter-end) against the U.S. dollar on a foreign currency net asset position. This compares with a Ps.190.8 million foreign exchange loss 4Q20, resulting from the 7.2% average quarterly appreciation of the Mexican peso during that period (10.1% at quarter-end) and a foreign currency net asset position.
Interest expense increased 45.3% YoY reflecting a higher debt balance as a result of the Ps.690 million in lines of credit drawn down in October 2021, while interest income increased 49.8% as a result of a higher cash balance.

Excluding construction costs, operating costs and expenses increased 116.5% YoY, or Ps.331.0 million, to Ps.615.1 million. This mainly reflects reimbursement of expenses under the Cares Act for a total of Ps.227.0 million in 4Q20. Excluding this impact, these costs would have increased 23.5% or Ps.73.9 million, principally due to increases in the maintenance provision, in the cost of sales of directly operated convenience stores, and in concession fees, depreciation and amortization.
Cost of Services increased 347.5% YoY, or Ps.300.9 million, principally reflecting the Ps.227.0 million recovery in costs during 4Q20 under the Cares Act. Excluding this impact, cost of services would have increased 23.5%, or Ps.73.9 million in 4Q21, mainly reflecting a higher maintenance provision, and higher cost of sales in convenience stores directly operated by ASUR.
Concession Fees paid to the Puerto Rican government increased Ps.10.5 million, in line with the concession agreement.
Depreciation and Amortization increased 11.8% YoY, or Ps.19.6 million, principally reflecting the FX translation impact as the average Mexican peso exchange rate fluctuated to Ps.20.7483 per dollar in 4Q21, from Ps.20.5486 per dollar in 4Q20.

ASUR’s operations in Colombia reported an Operating Gain of Ps.227.5 million in 4Q21 compared with an Operating Loss of Ps.40.4 million in 4Q20 reflecting the impact of COVID-19. Operating Margin was 41.1% in 4Q21 compared to negative operating margin of 18.6% in 4Q20, and a pre-pandemic operating margin of 19.6% in 4Q19. The Adjusted Operating Margin, which excludes the impact of IFRIC 12 with respect to construction of or improvements to concessioned assets, was 41.3% in 4Q21 compared with negative 18.8% in 4Q20, and positive 22.4% in 4Q19.
During 4Q21, EBITDA was Ps.336.1 million resulting in an EBITDA Margin of 60.8%. This compares with EBITDA of Ps.62.4 million in 4Q20 and an EBITDA Margin of 28.7%, while in 4Q19 EBITDA Margin was 38.4%.
The Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which excludes the impact of IFRIC 12 with respect to construction or improvements to concessioned assets, was 61.0% in 4Q21, compared to 29.1% in 4Q20, mainly due to the decline in revenues resulting from Covid-19, while in 4Q19 Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 43.9%.
Colombia Capital Expenditures
During 4Q21, Airplan made capital investments of Ps.0.8 million compared to Ps.2.8 million in 4Q20. Accumulated capex for FY21 amounted to Ps.4.5 million, while in FY20 ASUR made capital investments of Ps.6.9 million Airplan.
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 for 4Q21 amounted to Ps.407.7 million.
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.
