  • Annual Report 2020
    Financial Report 2020 Financial Statements This annual report covers the performances of Auckland International Airport Limited (Auckland Airport) from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020. This volume contains our audited financial statements. Overview information and a summary of our performance against financial and non-financial targets for the 2020 financial year are obtained in a separate volume, which may be accessed at report.aucklandairport.co.nz. 1 Financial report 2020 Introduction Auckland Airport is pleased to present the financial results for the year to 30 June 2020. This was a year of contrasting halves with the first half dominated by the company embarking on a historic period of infrastructure-related transformation and the second Financial report impacted by the travel restrictions put in place to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak. The eight-month period to February 2020 was a period of transformation for Auckland Airport, with key milestones reached in the airport infrastructure upgrade, including the commencement of four of our eight key anchor projects. Auckland Airport also focused on delivering meaningful customer improvements including launching new automated pre-security gates, the continued rollout of check-in kiosks and the completion of the international departures upgrade. International air connectivity continued to grow in the eight-month period to February 2020 with new or enhanced services launched to Vancouver and Seoul. Regrettably, domestic passenger volumes marginally fell during the first half reflecting increased yield management by airlines and the impact of Jetstar’s exit from regional services. Following the global outbreak of COVID-19 and the subsequent imposition of travel restrictions from February 2020, Auckland Airport took a number of decisive measures to withstand the challenging and unparalleled operating environment.

    CHRIS LIDDELL “We tend to overestimate the short term impact of trends and underestimate the long term impact. In the long term it is clear that environmental issues will be a significant threat to both global growth and human wellbeing. They will also however be an opportunity for some countries to take, and benefit from, a leadership position. New Zealand could be, and should be, one of those countries.” Chris was recently Vice Chairman and CFO of General Motors. Previously he was CFO of Microsoft, CFO of International Paper and CEO of Carter Holt Harvey. He was also the former Chairman of Project Crimson, a Director of the New Zealand Rugby Union and a trustee of the New Zealand Sports Foundation. He is currently involved in a number of philanthropic projects in New Zealand, is a Trustee of the New Zealand Institute, a Patron of the University of Auckland fundraising campaign and a Director of IMG, the leading sports management company in the world. GEOFF ROSS “I am involved in Pure Advantage, because I believe it is what will give this country a competitive advantage. As the world looks for greener - food, beverage, tourism, energy, technology, fashion, etc, business opportunities will emerge. With a Pure Advantage and some haste, we can grab these opportunities. Creating wealth for all New Zealanders.” Geoff was the founder and CEO of 42 Below Limited which was a listed company for three years prior to its sale to Bacardi in late 2006. Prior to 42 Below, he was a Managing Partner and Board Member of DDB Advertising for two years and was a Client Service Director and Management Team Member for Saatchi & Saatchi in Wellington for eight years.
