A word from CEO Gerlach Cerfontaine:

"We can be pleased with the financial results and the traffic figures for 2007.
Once again, our unique AirportCity proved its worth in 2007, with the Consumers
and Real Estate business areas together contributing 75% of the company's
operating result. When looking at the year ahead, we are less optimistic. Due to
the introduction of the flight tax on 1 July 2008, there will be little or no
increase in passenger numbers and air transport movements, causing our net
result to decrease."
