Non-GAAP measures
This presentation contains references to non-GAAP measures including EBITDAFI, EBITDA and underlying profit or loss. A reconciliation between reported profit after tax and the non-GAAP measure of underlying profit or
loss is included in the Appendix as well as the published materials for the respective interim and annual results.
The directors and management of Auckland Airport understand the importance of reported profits meeting accounting standards. Because we comply with accounting standards, investors know that comparisons can be
made with confidence between different companies and that there is integrity in our reporting approach. However, we believe thatan underlying profit or loss measurement can also assist investors to understand what is
happening in a business such as Auckland Airport, where revaluation changes can distort financial results or where one-off transactions, both positive and negative, can make it difficult to compare profits between years.
For several years, Auckland Airport has referred to underlying profit or loss alongside reported results. We do so when we report our results, but also when we give our market guidance (where we exclude fair value
changes and other one-off items) or when we consider dividends and our policy to pay 100% of underlying profit after tax (excluding unrealisedgains and losses arising from revaluation of property or treasury instruments
and other one-off items).
In referring to underlying profits or losses, we acknowledge our obligation to show investors how we have derived this result.

‒operational expenditure;
‒recovery in passengers and aircraft movements; and
‒weighted average cost of capital / target return
•Charges for FY23 have been held constant at FY22 prices while this consultation
is undertaken

Appendix: Underlying profit / (loss) reconciliation
•Auckland Airport recognisesEBITDAFI and underlying profit or loss are non-GAAP measures.
•We have made the following adjustments to show underlying profit / (loss) after tax for the six months ended 31 December 2022 and 2021:
–reversed out the impact of revaluations of investment property. An investor should monitor changes in investment property over time as a measure of growing value. However,
a change in one particular year is too short to measure long-term performance. Changes between years can be volatile and, consequently, will impact comparisons. Finally, the
revaluation is unrealisedand, therefore, is not considered when determining dividends in accordance with the dividend policy;
–reversed out the impact of fixed asset write-offs. Related costs and cost reversals are not considered to be an element of the group’s normal business activities and on this
basis have been excluded from underlying profit;
–reversed out the impact of derivative fair value movements. Derivative fair value movements are unrealisedand relate to basis swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting,
as well as the ineffective valuation movements in other financial derivatives. The group holds its derivatives to maturity, so any fair value movements are expected to reverse
out over their remaining lives;
–adjusted the share of profit of associates and joint ventures to reverse out the impacts on those profits from revaluations of investment property and financial derivatives; and
–reversed out the taxation impacts of the above movements in both six-month periods.
•The underlying profit / (loss) reconciliation for years ended 30 June 2022 and prior are provided in the relevant annual resultsfor that year
