Highlights for the Quarter include: . On a non-consolidated basis, MKIF recorded revenue of KRW 164.2 billion and net income of KRW 153.3 billion for the Quarter. Revenue and net income increased by 16.6% and 17.8% respectively compared with the previous corresponding period (“pcp”). Revenue increased due to higher interest income and dividend income1, and net income increased due to higher revenue. On a weighted average basis2, 12 toll road assets delivered traffic volume and revenue declines of 3.4% and 2.6% for the Quarter over pcp. The declines were caused mostly by the lower traffic volume for the two toll road assets linked to the Incheon International Airport (Incheon International Airport Expressway and Incheon Grand Bridge), which were negatively affected by the decline in the number of airport users following the COVID-19 outbreak. Traffic revenue declined less than volume as the Korean government (the “Government”) granted exemption of the toll payment for certain assets during the Korean Lunar New Year holiday season in 1Q 2020, while the Government did not grant such toll exemption in 1Q 2021. The assets which toll exemption was granted in 1Q 2020 received full compensation for the revenue loss from the Government. Key operational highlights of Busan New Port Phase 2-3 (“BNP 2-3”) include: - BNP 2-3 handled 0.55 million TEUs during the Quarter, an increase of 8.9% over pcp. - Revenue improved by 17.3% over pcp to KRW 31.8 billion due to a rise in volume, a change in volume mix and an increase in tariff. - EBITDA improved by 24.3% over pcp to KRW 14.6 billion due to an increase in revenue and a decrease in operating expenses, recording an EBITDA margin of 46% for the Quarter. On 31 March 2021, the financial position of MKIF is as follows: - Proportionately consolidated cash balance3 of KRW 317.3 billion. - Continued repayment of project company-level debt; the external debt4 weighted average maturity is 7.4 years5. 1. 1Q 2021: dividend income of KRW 10.8bn from New Airport Hiway Co., Ltd.; KRW 84.0bn from Cheonan-Nonsan Expressway Co., Ltd.; KRW 12.5bn from Soojungsan Investment Co., Ltd.; KRW 3.0bn from Kwangju Ring Road Company, Ltd. 1Q 2020: dividend income of KRW 28.9bn from New Airport Hiway Co., Ltd.; KRW 45.3bn from Cheonan-Nonsan Expressway Co., Ltd.; KRW 17.0bn from Soojungsan Investment Co., Ltd. 2.
