  • 1Q 2021 Net revenue increased 10.2% YoY, (€17.4m) driven by positive balance, increasing YoY, which more than offset the decline in revenue from operations of 63.4%
  • Significant decrease in both en-route and terminal revenue, down 68.1% and 63.8% respectively, due to the Covid-19 pandemic impacting only March 2020 vs. the entire 1Q 2021
  • 1Q 2021 positive balance of €131.2m has been determined as in FY 2020 accounts, following EU Regulation 2020/1627, published in November 2020, and considering the Commission's initial indications in terms of efficiency to be applied to the actual determined costs. 1Q 2020 balance was instead determined according to standard regulation on traffic risk sharing mechanism. The two different methodologies have determined an outperformance in 1Q 2021 compared with the corresponding period of the previous year.
  • 1Q 2021 Revenue from non-regulated business at €4.9m, down 14.5% compared with 1Q 2020, mainly due to Covid-19pandemic
