This signi- BILLION ficant improvement to the airlines profitability is also the best result 1,677 XPF BILLION 2014 Fhistorically, since the inception of the company. The continuation 231 XPF of Air Tahiti Nui’s positive financial trajectory is thanks to the culture of MILLION XPF 2013 teamwork and unity between all the stakeholders of the company (both 2012 internal and external) personnel, members of the Board, equity holders, members and customers, partners, etc. A transition year to prepare the future Committed to a dynamic of modernization since 2013, Air Tahiti Nui started many projects during financial year 2014: routes, fleet, alliances and partnerships, commercial and marketing development, organization and mana- gement. These reforms mark the implementation of the strategic directions validated by the Board of Directors and supported by social partners and collaborators. They reflect the need, expressed by all, to unite around the values and stakes that have prevailed since the creation of the company: “ To operate a long-lasting service for the Polynesian tourist industry” This ambitious goal goes voluntarily beyond the simple purpose of an air carrier and gives us a great responsi- bility as the main instrument in the development of French Polynesian tourism. To play its part constructively, the company must obviously ensure and guarantee its profitability while upholding high quality and safety standards. Armed with this ambition, we have taken advantage of our financial recovery to prepare Air Tahiti Nui for the future and its challenges; and we have done so in line with the country’s tourism development strategy. Thus we have structured the steering of the company around the CEO and deputy CEO, on the two pillars that are now the commercial managing directorate and the operations managing directorate, with the backing of support directorates (finance, organization and quality, HR, information systems). We have also created a mana- gement systems directorate, in charge of safety policy and compliance in order to meet the new requirements of European regulations. Some departments have been strengthened (marketing, customer service, offline market, etc.) and we also integrated additional functions (financial engineering, information systems security, corporate responsibility…) We have decided as well to invest in the cabin modernization of a fourth aircraft (in addition to the three inaugu- rated last year) so as to offer our customers consistent quality throughout our network. The renovation will begin in the last quarter of 2015. At the same time, a lot of our attention was devoted, since 2013 and all through 2014, to the enhancement of our fleet in 2018-2019. At the end of the year our efforts led to the signing of a valuable partnership for the lease of two latest-generation Boeing Dreamliner 787-9 aircraft, and to the cementing of a strategic relationship with Air Lease Corporation and Boeing. For Air Tahiti Nui, this is a bold undertaking to ensure a sustainable and profitable future. Therefore our priority will be to maintain this collaborative strategy for the next four years, so that we are ready to welcome and operate these new aircraft as the company prepares to celebrate its 20th birthday. Until then, To Tatou Manureva will be happy to keep serving you and welcoming you on our flights!

Daniel Riordan “The hardest thing in working on an alliance is to coordinate the activities of people who have different instincts and a different language, and maybe worship slightly different travel gods, to get them to work together in a culture that allows them to respect each other’s habits and convictions, and yet work productively together in an environment in which you can’t specify everything in advance.” Michael E. Levine “Beware a pact with the devil.” Martin Shugrue Airline Motivations For Alliances • the desire to achieve greater economies of scale, scope, and density; • the desire to reduce costs by consolidating redundant operations; • the need to improve revenue by reducing the level of competition wherever possible as markets are liberalized; and • the desire to skirt around the nationality rules which prohibit multinational ownership and cabotage.
