According to the report company’s income increased 5% to 2,423 billion dollars, at the same time costs for airport exploitation rose 69% and reached 1,529 billion dollars.   

In general, the report shows the real profit is lower than it was expected mainly for 4 reasons: the construction of the second terminal building in Pudong Airport forced the company to incur huge expenses; airports capacity was going down; the commercial income was lower than it had been expected; investments were also cut down.       

Shanghai International Pudong Airport launched the second terminal building on the 3^rd of March. The circulating capital is about 9,5 billion dollars what turned to be a big financial pressure for a company.

According to expert’s analysis, exploitation of 2 terminal buildings at the same time needed a lot of resources and staff, what led to costs increased 60% in the past 3 quarters of the year.
