ASUR), (ASUR) the first privatized airport group in Mexico and
operator of Cancun Airport and eight other airports in southeast
Mexico, today announced results for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2008. 3Q08 Highlights1: -- EBITDA2 increased by 2.11%
to Ps.439.3 million. -- Total passenger traffic was up 6.90%. --
Total revenues rose by 5.14%, mainly due to increases of 7.05% in
aeronautical revenues and 1.54% in non-aeronautical revenues. --
Commercial revenues per passenger declined by 5.28% to Ps.48.64 per
passenger. -- Operating profit declined by 0.16%. -- EBITDA margin
was 39.22% compared with 41.30% in 3Q07. 1. Unless otherwise
stated, all financial figures discussed in this announcement are
unaudited, prepared in accordance with Mexican Financial Reporting
Standards and represent comparisons between the three-month periods
ended September 30, 2008, and the equivalent three-month period
ended September 30, 2007. Results for 3Q07 and 9M07 are expressed
in constant Mexican pesos as of December 31, 2007, while 3Q08 and
9M08 results are in nominal pesos. Tables state figures in
thousands of pesos, unless otherwise noted. Passenger figures
exclude transit and general aviation passengers. Commercial
revenues include revenues from the activities of non-permanent
ground transportation and parking lots. All U.S. dollar figures are
calculated at the exchange rate of US$1 = Ps.10.9814. 2. EBITDA
means net income before: provision for taxes, deferred taxes,
deferred employees profit sharing, non-ordinary items,
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 of our performance 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, and may be calculated differently by different
companies. Passenger Traffic For the third quarter of 2008, total
passenger traffic increased year-over-year by 6.90%. Domestic
passenger traffic increased by 3.14% and international passenger
traffic rose by 10.68%. The 10.68% rise in international passenger
traffic resulted mainly from an increase of 12.71% at Cancun
airport. The 3.14% rise in domestic passenger traffic resulted
mainly from increases of 7.20%, 28.34%, 8.68%, 14.53%, 11.37% and
2.36%, at the Cancun, Cozumel, Huatulco, Oaxaca, Tapachula and
Villahermosa airports, respectively. For 9M08, total passenger
traffic rose by 11.69% compared to 9M07, with domestic passenger
traffic up 11.75% and international passenger traffic up 11.64%.

for 3Q08 increased year-over-year by 5.14% to Ps.734.3 million.
This was mainly due to increases of: -- 7.05% in revenues from
aeronautical services, principally as a result of the 6.90% rise in
passenger traffic; and -- 1.54% in revenues from non-aeronautical
services, principally as a result of the 1.05% rise in commercial
revenues detailed below. ASUR classifies commercial revenues as
those derived from the following activities: duty-free services,
car rental, retail, banking and currency exchange, advertising,
teleservices, non-permanent ground transportation, food and
beverage, and parking lots. Commercial revenues rose by 1.05%
year-over-year during the quarter, mainly as a result of revenue
increases in the following areas principally from the rise in
passenger traffic: -- 31.42% in duty-free stores; -- 19.38% in
banking and currency exchange services; -- 14.54% in advertising;
-- 12.43% in ground transportation; -- 8.34% in retail operations;
and -- 2.50% in car rental companies. These increases were
partially offset with declines in the following areas: -- 32.92% in
food and beverage; -- 6.48% in teleservices; -- 6.37% in other
revenues; and -- 4.35% in parking lots. Retail and Other Commercial

revenues continued to benefit from higher concession fees from
local craft and specialty shops, teleservices and tourism
operators. The increase in car rental revenues reflects rate
increases negotiated in October 2007 and the lease of eight new
commercial parking facilities in Terminal 3. Revenues from banking
and currency exchange services rose as a result of the opening of
new Banco Santander branches at the Cancun, Merida and Veracruz
airports. During July 2007, ASUR received a one time payment of
Ps.18 million from a food and beverage concessionaire. Total
operating costs and expenses for 3Q08 increased 8.86% year over
year, primarily as a result of: -- a 15.50% increase in cost of
services, primarily reflecting increases of 22.88% in energy costs,
13.38% in personnel, 49.46% in professional fees, 6.07% in the cost
of security services, 42.04% in maintenance costs and 5.81% in
cleaning costs. The increase in personnel costs reflects the
personnel reorganization implemented in the 2Q08, while the
increase in maintenance costs resulted mainly from the operation of
Terminal 3 at Cancun Airport, in operation since May 2007.
Professional fees increased as a result of services and studies
received in connection with the negotiation of the master
development plan for 2008-2023; -- a 6.75% increase in depreciation
and amortization, resulting from the depreciation of investments in
fixed assets and improvements made to concession assets; and -- a
1.84% increase in concession fees paid to the Mexican government,
mainly due to higher revenues (a factor in the calculation of the
fee). These increases were partially offset by reductions of 6.58%
in administrative expenses and of 2.28% in the technical assistance
fee paid to ITA, reflecting the decline in EBITDA for the quarter
(a factor in the calculation of the fee). Operating margin for the
quarter declined to 39.22% from 41.30% in 3Q07. This was mainly the
result of the 8.86% increase in costs, which more than offset the
5.14% increase in revenues during the period. Following the changes
in Mexican tax law that took effect January 1, 2008, which
established a new flat rate business tax ("Impuesto Empresarial a
Tasa Unica", or "IETU") and eliminated the asset tax, we evaluated
and reviewed our deferred assets and liabilities position under
Mexican Financial Reporting Standards. As a result of this review,
we created a deferred IETU provision that resulted in a charge to
income in the quarter of Ps.1.45 million. During 3Q08, the ASUR
subsidiaries that pay IETU made provisional tax payments of
Ps.42.46 million. Net income for 3Q08 declined to Ps.233.91
million, from Ps.242.17 million in 3Q07. Earnings per common share
for the quarter were Ps.0.7797, or earnings per ADS (EPADS) of
US$0.7100 (one ADS represents ten series B common shares). This
compares with Ps.0.8072, or EPADS of US$0.7351, for the same period
last year. Table IV: Summary of Consolidated Results for 3Q08 3Q07

Consolidated Results for 9M08 Total revenues for 9M08 increased
year-over-year by 13.61% to Ps.2,412.7 million. This was mainly due
to increases of: -- 10.35% in revenues from aeronautical services
as a result of the 11.69% rise in passenger traffic during the
period; and -- 20.83% in revenues from non-aeronautical services,
principally as a result of the 22.92% rise in commercial revenues
detailed below, which in turn was a consequence of the increase in
passenger traffic. Commercial revenues for 9M08 rose by 22.92%
year-over-year, principally as a result of revenue increases from
the following areas: -- 38.96% from duty-free revenues; -- 25.40%
from retail revenues; -- 26.82% from advertising revenues; --
29.10% from banking and currency exchange services; -- 23.45% from
ground transportation services; -- 10.56% from teleservices; --
10.63% from food and beverage; -- 5.41% from parking lot revenues;
-- 6.38% from car rental companies; and -- 22.04% from other
income. Total operating costs and expenses for 9M08 increased by
9.65%, mainly due to the following: -- a 7.40% increase in cost of
services, due mainly to increases of 25.88% in energy costs, 14.91%
in professional fees, 14.81% in security costs, and 21.72% in
maintenance expenses, in each case resulting from the opening of
Terminal 3 in May 2007; -- a 0.58% increase in administrative
expenses; -- a 12.90% increase in depreciation and amortization,
resulting from the depreciation of investments in fixed assets and
improvements made to concession assets; -- a 15.46% rise in
technical assistance costs reflecting the corresponding increase in
EBITDA during the period; and -- a 12.50% increase in concession
fees, mainly due to higher revenues. Operating margin increased to
45.76% for 9M08, up from 43.80% for 9M07. This was mainly the
result of the 13.61% increase in revenues, which more than offset
the 9.65% increase in costs and expenses during the period. Net
income for 9M08 increased by 17.94% to Ps.841.14 million. Earnings
per common share for the period were Ps.2.8038, or earnings per ADS
(EPADS) of US$2.5532 (one ADS represents ten series B common
shares). This compares with Ps.2.3773, or EPADS of US$2.1649, for
the same period last year. Table VII: Summary of Consolidated

Regulation The Mexican Ministry of Communications and
Transportation regulates the majority of ASUR's activities by
setting maximum rates, which represent the rates for the maximum
possible revenues allowed per traffic unit at each airport. ASUR's
regulated revenues for the first nine months of 2008 were
Ps.1,649.91 million, resulting in an annual average tariff per
workload unit of Ps.116.37. ASUR's regulated revenues accounted for
approximately 71.20% of total income for the period. The Mexican
Ministry of Communications and Transportation reviews compliance
with the maximum rates on an annual basis at the close of each
year. Balance Sheet On September 30, 2008, Airport Facility Usage
Rights and Airport Concessions represented 79.07% of the Company's
total assets, with current assets representing 16.18% and other
assets representing 4.75%. On September 30, 2008, cash and
marketable securities were Ps.1,776.78 million. On the same date,
shareholder's equity was Ps.14,746.67 million and total liabilities
were Ps.2,325.60 million, representing 86.79% and 13.62% of total
assets, respectively. Total deferred liabilities represented 82.31%
of the Company's total liabilities. Capital Expenditures During the
quarter, ASUR made investments of Ps.294.61 million as part of
ASUR's ongoing plan to modernize its airports pursuant to its
master development plans. Recent Developments ASUR Purchases 130
Hectares Of Land In Huatulco On October 17, 2008, Grupo
Aeroportuario del Sureste, S.A.B. de C.V. ("ASUR") paid Ps. 286.3
million to purchase 130 hectares of land on Huatulco bay from the
National Tourism Fund, or FONATUR. ASUR won the right to purchase
this land through a public bidding process initiated in August
2008. The transaction was authorized by ASUR's Board of Directors
on September 11, 2008. This acquisition is part of a program
launched by the Federal Government and FONATUR to promote and
accelerate the development of Huatulco as a flagship city for
Mexican tourism in the Pacific Region. Pursuant to the terms of the
purchase agreement, ASUR is required to construct at least 1,300
hotel rooms on the property over the next four years. ASUR intends
to sign agreements with third parties, including tourism real
estate developers and hotel operators, to develop the acquired 130
hectares with the objective of generating self-sufficient and
profitable independent projects while meeting FONATUR's
requirements. ASUR believes that to achieve a substantial increase
in passenger traffic at Huatulco airport, this destination requires
an additional number of available hotel rooms. As a result, ASUR,
acting as promoter of the region, intends to conduct studies to
determine how best to develop the land and to fulfill related
requirements necessary to facilitate the commercialization of these
projects. ASUR believes the investment required for this project in
2009 will not be significant. 3Q08 Earnings Conference Call Day:
