Organic GrowthWe are on three continents, in seven countries, at 14 airports. The number of passengers we serve increased 14% and reached 95 million in 2014. Our primary target in the upcoming period will be maximizing our revenue and profitability at all the airports where we have been operating.

In the next 15 years, USD 1 trillion in total investment is anticipated in the world aviation sector. With our strong partners and integrated business model, TAV Airports plans to focus on new and profitable business opportunities all over the world in the coming period.

Our first and foremost priority is to have a presence everywhere TAV invests. In addition, we have a favorable outlook on all areas, particularly airports not operated by TAV regardless of geographic location. These priorities are within the boundaries of our capabilities and will generate sustainable profit and create value for us.

Sadettin CesurBTA Chief Executive Officer

At BTA, we create value by way of “guest satisfaction.” We are determined to further raise the bar of our success.

Q How does your company create value?

A With a bright smile on the faces of our staff members, we serve some 60 thousand guests per day at 150 cafes, kiosks, restaurants and bars at 10 airports in four countries spanning three continents. Additionally, we serve 30 thousand guests each day at 75 food and beverage outlets on the ferries and at the terminals of İDO, one of the major transportation networks in the Istanbul and Marmara regions.

Similarly, we proudly demonstrate the quality of the TAV and BTA brands to our guests at the TAV Airport Hotel, which embodies our success in the hospitality business thanks to the high occupancy rate it has achieved during its 10 years of operation.

Furthermore, we are also making our presence known in other sectors thanks to various enterprises we have launched. For example, Cakes & Bakes is capable of meeting all food needs of a large number of well-known domestic and foreign brands, from sandwiches and home-style meals to cakes and bakery products, at its 23,000 square-meter facility. BTU meanwhile has recorded an outstanding accomplishment in Turkish delight production and sales in a very short period of time. And we have a new venture in the logistics industry, BTA Tedarik ve Dağıtım A.Ş. (Gıda 360).

In our latest initiative, we are excited to take BTA’s product and service quality downtown and make it available to a wider consumer base through the contemporary concepts unveiled at our food and beverage outlets at Uniq Istanbul, the city’s newest, popular shopping and entertainment center.

The single most important element in the creation of all this value can be expressed succinctly with the slogan, “Serving people is our business,” which has been our guiding principle from day one. We as the BTA family wholeheartedly believe that people are indeed our core business.

Q What are the main components of your business model?

A As mentioned above, the key element of our business model is people, which itself has two facets for us: our employees and our guests. In some of our operational areas, our suppliers or customers assume the place of our guests. Regardless of their actual name, the fundamental principle of any venture we undertake is to ensure the complete satisfaction of these two components. Likewise, profitability, which is an indispensible requirement of any business enterprise, can only be attained this way in our operating sectors.

The other major components we focus on as part of our business model include continual training, emphasis on employee motivation, and being able to relate to and effectively communicate with our very young staff, also known as Generation Y, which constitutes nearly the entirety of our family.

Q What do you owe your success to?

A Guest Satisfaction: Since the day BTA was first established, we have been offering food and beverage services to our guests, in the great majority of our operating regions. We are fully aware of the fact that the biggest shortcoming in this region, particularly in Turkey, is the lack of a sincere smile by staff members. We also know that guest satisfaction cannot be achieved merely by cheerfulness, and many other complementary factors are also very important at this point, so these topics take up a large part and amount of time in our training initiatives.

To put it succinctly, our first and foremost priority at every new outlet we launch is guest satisfaction. We are fully aware that no matter how successful your products, architectural design and ambiance are, no food and beverage enterprise can succeed and earn a profit without guest satisfaction-oriented employees.

BTA Family Concept: We use the term BTA Family when referring to the company in our intra-company communications where possible and we make

a sincere effort to substantiate this concept. In an attempt to create the motivation and sense of belonging as the elements personnel need the most. We stand by them during their good days and bad, wherever and whenever we can, while providing support to their career goals as a senior member of the family.

Information: To stay abreast of the constantly changing and evolving developments of this day and age, we take great heed of directly accessing all information that is of concern to us at any point as part of our involvement in the sector. We are making every effort to keep up with this pace of change both financially and operationally.

Q Are there any capabilities that you need to improve? If so, what are they?

A We believe that every capability we possess is in constant need of improvement. That said, we are aware that we can do better things and further improve all of our capabilities in the following areas in particular: • Deployment of the experience and capabilities we

acquired at airports and maritime transit in urban settings, which we launched with our concept outlets at Uniq,

• Cakes & Bakes, which has ever-growing business opportunities, including our Turkish delight company BTU, and

• Gıda 360, which we established recently as our venture into this new industry in order to undertake the supply and distribution of these potential opportunities.

Q What kinds of opportunities do industry related developments and technological advances present to your company?

A Technological advances such as using digital menu boards instead of wood frame boards that need to be replaced every time the menu changes, along with the related print costs; software systems that enable centralized monitoring of cold storage measurements; custom software that nearly eliminates human error in cash register systems; and biometric time clocks and devices to track employee hours more precisely. We closely monitor every relevant development around the world in this regard.

• Monitoring all tenders, similar to the Salalah tender that we participated in jointly with ATÜ and which we won, with comparable operational scope and significant financial magnitude with a preference for the same region.

Q Is there a region that you target specifically for growth?

A Our first and foremost priority is to have a presence everywhere our parent company TAV invests.

Q How does your company create value?

A TAV IT uses its specialist staff, aviation experience and products to provide a vital service in airport operations. The company’s primary objectives are to offer integrated turnkey airport systems, increase efficiency not only through IT solutions but also by restructuring business processes, and attain the optimal utilization of airport resources.

With 13 years of experience and a variety of aviation industry related product offerings, the company provides 24/7 support to airports while also rendering domestic and international consultancy services. We provide services at internationally recognized ITIL, COBIT and CMMI standards. Thanks to our experience and know-how in the aviation industry and airport infrastructure systems, we are able to generate the best solutions spanning a diverse range of services, from analysis and design, to consultancy, support and maintenance. TAV IT provides turnkey solutions without operational disruption during deployment or development for airports of all sizes, in both improvement projects of existing IT systems as well as in initial IT system installations at new airports.

We expand our product portfolio every year in accordance with our strategy of continuous development. As part of this effort, the following additions were made to our product offering in 2014:

• We completed the necessary development for the TAV SmartZone application as one of the first companies in the world to deploy iBeacon technology. Using these features, we will be undertaking joint initiatives with ATÜ and BTA to make available modern promotional campaigns, special offers and location-based promotions to TAV SmartZone users and ATÜ and BTA customers.

• We completed development of the Slot Coordination and Management System (SCMC) product that allows airports to make highly reliable slot planning decisions based on the operational and physical constraints of the airports, use their capacities more effectively, and foresee their future needs.

• We completed development of the Shrike product, which is designed to meet the monitoring and management needs of TAV IT’s products, and its infrastructure equipment and systems. Shrike enables the centralized monitoring and management of TAV IT’s products, integrations, and its infrastructure equipment and systems.

Q What are the basic components of your business model? What constitutes the foundation of your business?

A The core components that set us apart from other information technology firms in the industry are our state-of-the-art technology products that can be easily adapted to any business process, our highly competent employees who are equipped with superior knowledge of the aviation sector, and our skilled engineers who are adept at working with advanced technology. We strive to meet and exceed the expectations of all of our clients by generating innovative and practical solutions. In addition, we aim to roll out flexible airport IT products to beat the competition and to provide 24/7 uninterrupted service.

Q What are the three most important factors behind your success?

In addition to administering the IT infrastructure related tasks of all TAV airport projects, we have also offered products and services to non-Group clients since 2011.

Arabia that will commence operation in 2015; we have positioned our products within this project and we plan to begin providing operations, maintenance and support services in 2015.

Q How does your company create value?

A TAV Operation Services, a subsidiary of TAV Airports Holding, manages non-aviation income and creates value as part of airport operations. The company does this by engaging in the operation of TAV “primeclass,” which was launched to develop exclusive services for the evolving needs, demands and conditions of passengers; the development and operation of passenger loyalty programs such as TAV Passport Card, TAV Passport Plus Card, TAV Passport Edition Card, and “primeclass” Lounge Card; operation of online travel portals such as TAVPORT.COM and AirportEasy.com as well as the TAV Tourism travel agency. In addition, the company develops, markets and leases advertisement and promotional areas at the terminals; allocates commercial areas at the terminals; and operates private passenger lounges for corporate enterprises, banks and airline companies that strive to offer unique opportunities to their clients at airports as well.

Q What are the basic components of your business model? What constitutes the foundation of your business?

A TAV Group has a unique business model that consists of airport design, construction and operation. Our business model spans the management of the entirety of the airport’s operations in an integrated manner and accounts for the competitive advantage of

TAV Operation Services. Execution of this model relies on a high level of cooperation between various functions within the Group and continuous communication. We enjoy the freedom of encouraging innovation while operating in a diligent manner. The goal of TAV Operation Services is to create preferred brands rather than popular brands. We strive to be the best in what we do, not to be the biggest. Our efforts in this regard pay off by making the company the business partner of choice in vast regions and various cultures of the globe, from Germany to Saudi Arabia, Tunisia to Georgia.

Q Are there any capabilities that you need to improve? If so, what are they?

A One of our major priorities is to transform our strengths discussed above into service at airports abroad not operated by TAV. In addition, we also intend to launch similar business ventures and develop projects such as private passenger lounges at ports and railway stations, or on ferry systems and railroad networks.

Q What kinds of opportunities do industry related developments and technological advances present to your company?

A Our work is extremely dynamic since airports host busy traffic on a 24/7 basis. The most important aspect of our job is closely monitoring developments in the business world, technology, and airport operations and aviation, in Turkey as well as globally.

Thanks to the flexibility we have to measure and observe the expectations of end-use customers due to the B2C aspects of our TAV Passport and TAV Tourism businesses, we have a holistic understanding of the expectations of airport customers and leverage our operational know-how in improvement initiatives. The outward-facing, fast and flexible nature of our business also allows us to refresh our data collection constantly so we can forecast the future more accurately. During the normal course of operation of our brands, we use technological advances and tools to their fullest extent.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

TAV OPERATION SERVICES FAMILY INFORMATION

We embrace customer satisfaction as a priority. We see airports as places where passengers are provided with all levels of comfort and luxury in an unlimited fashion rather than as simply points of transition, and we shape our services accordingly.

Employing dynamic personnel who have embraced the appropriate and effective service approach, who were trained properly and comprehensively, and who are given support in their continuous training needs by the company are indispensible components of our success.

The fact that we have extended TAV Airports’ know-how and experience to various other aspects of airport operations ranks among the most important factors of our success.

Q What steps have you taken to date, and what steps do you plan to take in the near future, as part of your TAV-independent growth strategy (providing services outside of TAV-operated airports)?

A We offer our TAV “primeclass” VIP-CIP services at the same quality standards and under the same brand at the airports we operate abroad; namely, the Tbilisi, Batumi, Skopje, Ohrid, Monastir and Enfidha-Hammamet Airports. We have developed the network by combining our know-how with the standards prevailing in each respective country. In addition to the terminals we operate, we are also able to offer departure and arrival welcome services at some 106 terminals across the globe through AirportEasy.com as a result of the feedback we have received and the need for such services that we have identified. Thanks to

this service, a passenger flying from Munich to Zurich can receive the welcoming service at both terminals.

In addition, we currently operate the AF/KLM Lounges in three German cities that serve a total of about 150 thousand passengers annually. Our next goal is to take over the operation of more than 30 AF/KLM Lounges worldwide.

Q Is there a region that you target specifically for growth?

A Germany and France, as well as the United States and the Middle East-Africa region, top our list of target geographies.

To be a globally sought-after company in lounge operations that is also operating a large network.

To transform our strengths into service at non-TAV operated airports abroad and to launch similar business ventures; and to develop projects such as private passenger lounges at ports and railway stations, or on ferry systems and railroad networks.

33

Q How does your company create value?

A Commencing operation in 1999 as a security unit within TAV, TAV Security was incorporated as a joint stock company in 2006. The company prioritizes customer satisfaction and strives to strike an optimal balance between convenience and security.

The company directly provides security services at the facilities of five TAV airports in Turkey while serving as a solution partner for the security of the airports operated by the Holding abroad. In addition, TAV Security provides security services at some Category A facilities outside of airports as well as aircraft private security services at the airports under a C license.

Security services are vital for airports and constitute the single most important element allowing aviation operations to take place. No aviation operation can survive without security services. TAV Security meets the fundamental need of security practices, which is the responsibility of TAV airports, while earning additional income by also providing services in other areas.

Q What are the basic components of your business model? What constitutes the foundation of your business?

A The core components of our business model include aircraft security, facility security, passenger and luggage security, and our employees.

As a result, these elements form the basis of our security business while we utilize implementation procedures and security devices and equipment as the complementary tools to aid in this objective.

Q Why are you so successful? What are the three most important factors behind your success?

A As it is a requirement to succeed as a member of the TAV Airports family, this is achieved in accordance with the parent company’s strategies. To ensure success, we have properly implemented the rule of five Ws and one H: who, what, where, when, why and how. The factors that guide us toward our objective during this process include:- Importance given to people and the value

added created by them, - Knowing the task at hand and its

requirements, while identifying the risks, and

- Ensuring continuity through training and corrective actions.

Q Are there any capabilities that you need to improve? If so, what are they?

A TAV Security has an important position in the airport security sector across Turkey and ranks among the top 10 companies in the security industry countrywide. Some 40% of all air transit passengers are served by TAV Security. While enjoying this level of success, perhaps our greatest need for improvement is in the area of expanding into new markets and enhancing our marketing capabilities.

Q What kinds of opportunities do industry related developments and technological advances present to your company?

A Since security is in a constantly evolving state, there is no end to the need for security services. The soaring level of aviation activity in Turkey and the importance of aviation security across the world provide us with vast business development opportunities while also allowing us to employ experienced and certified personnel as well as to accumulate know-how and marketing capabilities.

Q What are your short, medium and long-term strategic goals? A Short Term:

To retain our experienced personnel, raise the share of our certified employees to 80% of our workforce, and expand our solution partnership capabilities in airport security with operations requiring a C license within airport premises as well as with other activities.

We place a priority on our people and the value added created by them.

To ensure success, we have properly implemented the rule of five Ws and one H. We know the task at hand and its requirements and we identify the risks.

Ensuring continuity through training and corrective actions is core to our operations.

Medium Term:To engage in business development, become involved in the security of Category A facilities in accordance with TAV Airports Holding policies and gain a larger market share.

Long Term:To become a recognized brand name in aviation security that can also provide services outside Turkey.

Q What steps have you taken to date, and what steps do you plan to take in the near future, as part of your TAV-independent growth strategy (providing services outside of TAV-operated airports)?

A We have not taken any steps in this direction to date, but we have been fielding some offers to provide security services at the airports operated by the State Airports Authority of Turkey (DHMİ). We may have an opportunity to conduct business in this area pursuant to a strategy to be developed by the Holding.

Q Is there a region that you target specifically for growth?

A We have identified two categories of countries/regions for growth: high-risk regions and low-risk regions with significant

business potential. One of these categories comprises the Middle East, Turkey’s immediate neighbors and North Africa. Even though we receive offers from these countries, we consider this a risky approach to business development based on TAV’s brand reputation and potential problems; we decline these opportunities as they do not currently pass the cost-benefit test.

Currently, we are receiving solution partnership offers from the low-risk regions of Europe and the Nordic countries. To date, the only joint venture we have participated in is with ISTC for Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands. This effort has not borne fruit yet, but we will continue to pursue developments related to this matter. The other area we are active in is participation in the ECAC working groups. We expect these responsibilities to open up some opportunities for us in the European market.

To retain our experienced personnel, raise the share of our certified employees to 80% of our workforce, and expand our solution partnership capabilities in airport security with operations requiring C license within airport premises as well as with other activities.

To engage in business development, become involved in the security of Category A facilities in accordance with TAV Airports Holding policies and gain a larger market share.

To become a recognized brand name in aviation security that can also provide services outside Turkey.

37

Q When was TAV Academy founded and what is its primary line of business? How does TAV Academy create value?

A Established in 2006 as the training and development center for TAV Group employees, TAV Academy was incorporated in 2012 in order to transfer the vast know-how and experience of TAV Group in its areas of operation to enterprises outside the Group. Licensed as a training institution and accredited by Turkey’s Ministry of National Education in 2014, TAV Academy offers effective development solutions to all TAV employees to improve their know-how, skills and capabilities. The Academy also provides training and advisory services to non-TAV Group airports under the TAV Aviation Minds brand.

Q What are the basic components of your business model? What constitutes the foundation of your business?

A We know very well that companies which fail to prioritize their human capital and employee development cannot attain sustainable success. Development of personnel, which constitutes the most important driving force behind the Company’s success, plays a key role in TAV’s growth. In addition to the training modules in the TAV Academy catalogue, which consists of more than 100 courses for employees, we also organize customized training programs based on needs that arise throughout the year. In addition, we offer online training opportunities through our e-learning platform, TAV e-Academy.

Talent development has been a priority for us since day one. The intra-company mentoring program that we introduced in 2014 is yet another new learning platform where our senior managers and executives pass on their knowledge and experience to the younger generations.

Q What kind of opportunities do industry developments and technological advances present to your company?

A Today, e-learning has become a key tool to support classroom training. As the penetration of smart phones and tablets has intensified and these devices have become a major part of the lives of Generation Y, we

responded by designing some of our training courses in the form of e-learning and video modules. This allows employees to access training related information whenever they want, wherever they want. As a result, personnel can revisit and refresh the subjects they have learned in detail through classroom training sessions as needed. I can confidently state that we have one of the strongest e-learning platforms in the airport industry today.

Q What kinds of activities does TAV Academy undertake for corporate development?

A We are one of the 15 designated global training centers of Airports Council International (ACI), which is the main airport operation industry body with more than 1,800 member airports. Each year we hold various ACI training sessions at

our own facility and bring together airport professionals from every corner of the world. We learn from them as they in turn learn from us. In 2014, we began to conduct joint training programs in conjunction with our parent company ADP’s training department. As part of this effort, we held a joint training initiative in Paris for ADP and TAV employees. Another area we focus on for corporate development is forging ties between the industry and academia. We are developing joint projects with Turkish universities that have aviation-related departments as well as world-renowned universities abroad such as Harvard Business School, Columbia University and University of Virginia.

It is of utmost importance for us that participants in our training and development programs are satisfied both with the content of the courses and with the presentation skills of our instructors. The satisfaction ratio for our training courses and instructors in 2014 was 4.85 out of a possible 5.00.

One of our strategic approaches includes developing our talent pool as mentors or internal instructors so as to allow them to share their knowledge and skills with other TAV employees.

We are constantly and diligently improving our individual and institutional skills thanks to our memberships in international organizations, the projects we undertake with our partners, and our collaboration with academia.

Q What steps has TAV Academy taken to date, and what steps do you plan to take in the near future, as part of your growth strategy outside of TAV?

A We established TAV Aviation Minds in early 2013 in order to make TAV’s vast know-how and experience in airport operations available to non-TAV Group airports. TAV Aviation Minds is an internationally recognized training provider that boasts International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)-accredited instructors. We have proven our quality standards with ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System certification issued to us by the British Standards Institution.

Our instructors, who have undertaken large-scale projects particularly in Saudi Arabia, provided training to the executive staff of 25 different airports in China as well as to ground handling personnel at Kutaisi Airport in Georgia during 2014. As a result of these overseas programs administered in 2014, we have conducted a total of 377 training days.

To further expand the training services in airport operations we offer outside of TAV Group.

To become an International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO)-certified training center.

To be able to offer TAV’s know-how outside of airport operations to the entire globe in the form of training and consultancy solutions.

Q Is there a region that you target specifically for growth?

A We are strategically focusing our efforts on developing countries. We expect to add Jordan and Oman to the regions we serve in 2015, thereby conducting more than 400 days of training outside of TAV Group. TAV Academy is continuing the meetings in Uganda and Mongolia. We attend aviation exhibitions in a large number of countries from South Africa to Abu Dhabi and promote our activities to airport executives. We have received strategic partnership offers from the training centers of various European airports this year; we are currently evaluating these requests. Such collaborations that will create value for us in accordance with our objectives will allow us to access new regions even faster.

Board of Directors’ Message

As the Fed stopped its massive quantitative easing program in 2014 and declared that it could start the tightening cycle in 2015, the US economy officially made its exit from the recession dating back to the 2008 financial crisis and once again took its place as the engine of global economic growth. Thus, the US economy grew at 2.4% in 2014, a rather impressive rate for a developed economy. On the other hand, in Europe, we continue to see bifurcated growth, with the south lagging the rest of the continent. It is being forecast that while the developed markets will achieve modest economic expansion in 2015, emerging economies are also expected to grow, albeit at a slower rate than in previous years.

Domestic demand in Turkey began to weaken as a result of the macro-prudential measures implemented by the economy administration to keep private consumption in check and to reduce the current account deficit in late 2013. However, growth began to pick up in the second half of 2014 as industrial production started to expand at a moderate clip. The most recent forecastsindicate that Turkey will end 2014 with GDP growth of 3.3%.

In 2015, we expect Turkey to reap the benefits of the steps taken by theeconomy administration over the last two years.Inflation and, as a result, interest rates are expected to decline in 2015 due to the base effect and the sharp drop in oil prices. A major improvement in the current account deficit is also anticipated due to both the devaluation of the Turkish lira and falling energy prices. Against

this favorable macroeconomic backdrop, private sector investment and private consumption expenditures are expected to pick up steam as Turkey’s economic growth accelerates to around 4%.

At TAV Airports, we can keep a close watch on private consumption trends through the duty free sales performance of the Turkish airports operated by us. As we posted excellent duty freesales particularly in the last two months of 2014 we observed that Turkish consumers began getting used to the new exchange rate levels after the steep fall in the value of the Turkish lira in late 2013. We expect this expansion in consumer spending to continue in 2015 and further boost our duty free sales performance.

World aviation market continues to grow briskly.The rise of new megacities across the globe and further growth of the existing ones as a resultof urbanization trends worldwide are creating major demand for air transport between thesemetropolises. Increased globalization of trade and commerce is also giving a significant boostto air traffic. As the growing global middle class bolsters the global tourism industry in particular,Turkey, the world’s rising star in this sector, today ranks sixth in international tourist arrivalswhile the country did not even appear in the top 15 in year 2000. Turkey’s airline companies and especially Turkish Airlines are registering eye-popping passenger growth rates thanks to their strategy of positioning Istanbul as a transfer hub for the region and capitalising on the increasing popularity of Turkey as a touristic destination.

TAV Airports has accumulated significant know-how in the area of airport operations over 14 years’ time. While serving as a model with the state-of-the-art airports it has built, the Company has also become a major operator that sets the standards in airport operations.

In this robust macro environment, aviation industry players are extremely optimistic for prospects of world air traffic growth. Boeing and Airbus predict that over the next 20 yearsglobal airline passenger traffic will expand at a compound annual rate of between 4% and 5%, in effect almost doubling passenger traffic totals from today’s level. In Turkey, Eurocontrol is forecasting 7% compound annual growth in passenger traffic until 2020 while the Turkish State Airports Authority (DHMİ) expects compound average annual growth of 9%. Turkey’s domestic carriers are pursuing aggressive fleet expansion programs in line with these trends.

Taking these developments into consideration, regulatory authorities in both developedcountries and emerging markets have continued to look to the private sector for know how andfinancial resources in order to upgrade airport infrastructure to modern-day standards as well as to prepare for expected capacity expansions.As passenger traffic soars at existing airports, we will see continued modernization andcapacity increases at airport facilities across the world through privatizations and transfers ofoperation rights.

TAV Airports has accumulated significant know how in this area over 14 years’ time. In 14 years TAV Airports has become a best practice model in airport operations both through its high standards in operations and with the state-of-the-art airports it has built. The know how TAV Airports has accumulated meanwhile, has become globally sought after as the demand for training programs put together by TAV Airports instructors clearly demonstrates.

Active across the entire airport operations ecosystem through its airport management and service companies, TAV Airports is equipped with the state-of-the-art tools and deep knowhow to turn the industry-wide growth into new opportunities. In particular, deploying this experience and know how at non-TAV operated airports ranks among our top strategic priorities in the period ahead.

The tenders already awarded to BTA, ATÜ, TAV IT and TAV Operation Services from outside theGroup suggest that we are on the right track. The growth of our service companies outside of theTAV ecosystem will continue at an accelerating pace in the coming period.

Aéroports de Paris’s acquisition of an equity stake in TAV Airports in 2012 paved the way for both a technical and strategic partnership between the two airport operators. As a resultof this collaboration, TAV Airports took a 15% interest in the joint venture that operates the Zagreb Airport at the end of 2013. In addition, the consortium that also includes the both partiessubmitted a bid for the operating rights of the central terminal building of New York’s LaGuardia Airport. This partnership will continue to create new opportunities for both sides in theyears to come.

TAV Airports has created and will continue to create significant value for its shareholders. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our shareholders for their support.

In the coming period, our growth will be built on three pillars: Organic growth at our existing airports, growth from new airport additions to our portfolio, and the growth prospects of our service companies outside of TAV Group.

Sani ŞenerCEO

We left behind a successful year during which we attained our targets and expanded our capabilities with appropriate strategies.

CEO’s Message

Thanks to our successful operations in 2014, we achieved strong financial results. The social benefits we generated for the people, environment and economy of the countries we operate in were the icing on the cake for us. As we expanded our airport portfolio in line with our corporate strategy, we launched a new growth initiative within TAV Airports: expansion of our service companies outside of TAV. In March, we won the tender for Milas Bodrum Airport, which raised the number of airports we operate up to 14. During the year, ATÜ was awarded the concession to operate the duty free shops at Salalah Airport in Oman as well as at five other airports in Tunisia, including Carthage Airport in the country’s capital. In addition, ATÜ assumed operation of the duty free shops at Monastir Airport in Tunisia in July 2014. BTA began operating the food and beverage outlets at Uniq, which is likely to become one of Istanbul’s most popular shopping malls. TAV Operation Services commenced operation of Air France/KLM passenger lounges at three airports in Germany. TAV IT won the contract to set up the IT infrastructure for Abu Dhabi airport. Expanding the geographic scope of its services to include Medinah, HAVAŞ posted a major jump in profitability as a result of a restructuring program implemented in 2014. In December 2014, TGS, a joint venture of HAVAŞ and Turkish Airlines, won

a tender from Turkish Airlines to provide ground handling services for eight major Turkish airports. Our total passenger traffic grew 14% in 2014, climbing to 95 million, while consolidated revenue rose 9% to €983 million. EBITDA totaled €434 million, up 14% and net profit came in at €218 million, demonstrating 64% growth, fully in line with the guidance we had disclosed at the beginning of the year. We topped the Istanbul and overall passenger targets that we had set at the beginning of 2014. According to passenger traffic statistics for the year, Istanbul Atatürk Airport was the fourth busiest airport in Europe. In order to ensure uninterrupted passenger growth at Istanbul Atatürk, we began expanding this facility in cooperation with the State Airports Authority of Turkey (DHMİ). The investments DHMİ undertook in the apron area increased the airport’s aircraft parking capability by 25% as of November 2014. A 42% total increase in parking capability will result as these investments are finalized in 2015. Meanwhile, TAV Airports is initiating approximately €75 million investment to increase the capacity of the international terminal. The terminal extension projects will be completed in 2016.

As we expanded our airport portfolio in line with our corporate strategy, we launched a new growth initiative within TAV Airports: expansion of our service companies outside of TAV.

At the beginning of 2014 we completed construction of İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport’s domestic terminal, which commenced service as Turkey’s largest domestic airport terminal. In July, we assumed operation of the domestic terminal of Milas Bodrum Airport, which we were awarded the tender for in March; as a result, we served nearly 1 million additional passengers during the second half of the year. Our marketing staff is already working diligently to help realize the full tourism potential of Bodrum, which has become a global brand in recent years. This was also a stellar year for Gazipaşa Alanya Airport, where passenger traffic grew a dizzying 115% to 726 thousand passengers. After completion of the expansion projects that we will be undertaking here, Gazipaşa Alanya Airport’s capacity will climb to 2 million passengers per year.

Medinah Airport continued to perform brilliantly with 22% growth in passenger traffic in 2014. The new terminal building that will go into service in first quarter 2015 will remove all roadblocks to this airport’s future growth. As rapid expansion also continued at our Georgia and Macedonia airports in 2014, we extended our airport portfolio to encompass Eastern Europe by taking a 15% equity stake in the consortium that operates Zagreb Airport in 2013. This year we expect to learn the result of the tender for the operation of New York LaGuardia Airport in the United States that we had bid on in 2014.

We attained all our operational and financial targets set at the beginning of the year and the Board of Directors has resolved to submit for shareholder

approval, a dividend of TL 306 million at the General Assembly meeting. In 2014, in line with our 50% dividend payout policy, we had distributed TL 199 million of cash dividend from our 2013 net profit. We finished the year at the top in the Board of Directors category and in third place in the overall Corporate Governance rating. As a result of our sustainability and corporate governance initiatives, we were included in the BIST-Sustainability Index that is comprised of only 15 companies. We have always strived to be a model corporate citizen that benefits society as a whole while conducting its operations. Our contribution to the public coffers through tax and concession lease payments has amounted to TL 8 billion since 2005.

In the coming period, our growth will be built on three pillars: Organic growth at our existing airports, growth from new airport additions to our portfolio, and the growth prospects of our service companies outside of TAV Group. We will move forward in all three areas without compromising the high performance we have demonstrated to date.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders and business partners for placing their trust in us as well as our employees for their dedicated efforts and hard work.

TAV successfully met the requisite corporate governance, environmental and social performance criteria, as assessed by independent institutions, to become listed in the index.

11/07/2014, Istanbul Atatürk Airport Extension Project TAV İstanbul Terminal İşletmeciliği A.Ş. (TAV Istanbul), a wholly-owned subsidiary of TAV Havalimanları Holding A.Ş., signed a supplementary contract on November 17, 2014

with the General Directorate of State Airports Authority of Turkey (DHMİ) for amendment and expansion of the Istanbul Atatürk Airport International Terminal as part of the Atatürk Airport Extension Project.

The extension project is to be realized under the “Collaborative Decision Making Initiative” devised between DHMİ, Turkish Airlines and TAV Airports. It aims to increase terminal capacity to better serve the growing volume of passenger traffic, maximize comfort and service quality for Atatürk Airport passengers and achieve maximum resource efficiency. As per the supplementary contract, 32 additional check-in islands will be built (in addition to the existing 224 islands), the baggage handling system capacity will be expanded and the mezzanine floor on the land side will be moved to the air side in order to increase the air side passenger area. In addition, to expand the International Terminal, the existing cargo terminal will be demolished and replaced with 27,000 square-meters of passenger lounge space. Four additional passenger bridges will be added to the 26 existing passenger bridges at the International Terminal. These bridges will have the option of providing eight parking spaces for single aisle aircraft and four parking spaces for twin aisle aircraft. As a result, the total number of bridges at the International Terminal will rise from 26 to 34. Also, 17,000 square-meters of additional outdoor car park space will be built to supplement the existing outdoor car parking capacity as part of this project.

No changes will occur in the duration and the lease amount of the original Lease Agreement of Istanbul Atatürk Airport Domestic and International Terminal, Indoor Car Park and General Aviation Terminal that expires on January 2, 2021. All revenues earned from the commercial and advertising areas of the new facility will belong to TAV Istanbul for the duration of the operation. The revenues from the new car park will be shared with DHMİ.

Sustainability TAV Airports continues to strive toward the vision of being the pioneering and leading airport operator in its target regions. In pursuit of this vision, the Company has always aimed to create maximum value for all stakeholders in the countries and regions where it operates while limiting the environmental impact of its operations and generating social benefit since the first day it was established.

1. IntroductionAs globalization continues to broaden and deepen in the present day, the economic, environmental and social challenges as well as market opportunities encountered by companies become increasingly varied and diverse. At the same time, the pace of change is accelerating while enterprises that cannot overcome these challenges and take advantage of the opportunities available lose their ability to compete effectively. As problems like climate change and depletion of natural resources necessitate diverse stakeholders to act together, the impacts of economic and social change reverberate across a wide geographic area. Companies that want to remain competitive in the future need to improve their business models and conduct while moving toward a more participatory, transparent and accountable platform that is respectful of the human condition and the environment.

TAV Airports continues to strive toward the vision of being the pioneering and leading airport operator in its target regions. In pursuit of this vision, the Company has always aimed to create maximum value for all stakeholders in the countries and regions where it operates while limiting the environmental impact of its operations and generating social benefit since the first day it was established.

The principles required to achieve sustainable growth are at the core of all Company operations. A bottom-up and interdisciplinary organizational structure has been put in place to disseminate existing know-how within the Company and to conduct measurement, reporting and development efforts in a coordinated manner. The Sustainability Teams at the airport terminal operating companies are comprised of representatives from energy management, waste management, water management, human resources, corporate communications, financial affairs and other related departments within the enterprises under the guidance of the General Manager and Deputy General Manager of each company. The Sustainability Teams report to the General Manager and Deputy General Manager of the respective enterprise and are responsible for carrying out measurement, assessment and reporting tasks related to key performance indicators set forth in the TAV Airports Holding Sustainability Strategy and Action Plan and developing projects and recommendations to improve sustainability performance. The TAV Airports Sustainability Committee is tasked with putting together and developing the Company’s Sustainability Strategy and Action Plan; coordinating and steering the Sustainability Teams formed within the terminal operating companies and

Sustainability

service providers as part of this effort; and measuring, improving and reporting on the Company’s sustainability performance. The Committee consists of representatives delegated by the managers of the related departments within the Company and service providers. The Chairs of the Sustainability Teams of operating companies also serve as members of the Committee.

TAV Airports is committed to disclosing its sustainability performance openly, transparently and comprehensively to all Company stakeholders. As part of this effort, TAV has reported not only its economic performance but also the Company’s environmental and social impact in compliance with internationally accepted standards since 2010. TAV Airports takes special heed of stakeholder participation and embraces a participatory management approach at every phase of its operations. TAV employs the internationally recognized Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards in order to present its reporting initiatives in a comparative and understandable manner.

2. Our Economic Impacts TAV Airports strives to create maximum value for all stakeholders. Airport operators generate direct economic value through the employment and income opportunities they create; produce ancillary benefits such as the emergence of supply chains that ensure the provision of services and goods and the development of various industries such as tourism; and also contribute to the cultural and social development of their operating region. Believing in the importance of socially responsible investment, TAV Airports successfully met the necessary criteria and was listed in the Sustainability Index created by Borsa Istanbul in 2014.

3. Our Environmental Impacts In order to strike an optimal balance between the soaring demand for air transport and efficient use of natural resources, TAV Airports strives to adopt and implement environmental best practices in every area it conducts operations. To this end, above and beyond complying with local and national legal and regulatory requirements, the Company engages in energy and environmental management at global standards to minimize its environmental impact.

Prioritizing climate change as among the most significant of its environmental risks, TAV actively participates in the Airport Carbon Accreditation program administered by ACI Europe in order to measure, manage, reduce and neutralize carbon emissions at the airports it operates. In addition to issuing sustainability reports, TAV also discloses its performance in directly addressing climate change transparently and regularly to investors and the public at large via the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP).

Engaging in effective water management at the Company’s terminals to ensure efficient use of water resources, TAV Airports regularly measures and reports its water consumption per passenger. Wastewater is treated and reused at every opportunity; when that is not possible, it is disposed of properly. Soaring passenger traffic is also increasing the importance of waste management at the terminals. TAV takes measures to reduce waste production and to reclaim as much of it as possible during the reuse, recycling and disposal processes. TAV also makes efforts to protect biodiversity in the terminal areas and to minimize the loss of natural habitats.

4. Our Social Impacts TAV Airports believes that the satisfaction of its customers can only be enhanced by ensuring the well-being of the Company’s employees; as such, TAV defines its social impacts through these two major stakeholder groups.

Creating significant local employment opportunities in its operating countries, TAV has adopted a world class human resources policy and strives to be the most preferred employer in its markets. TAV’s human resources policy is built on occupational safety, comprehensive opportunities for the professional and personal development of employees, and equal opportunity for all. Offering diversified and comprehensive training programs for the professional development of Company personnel, TAV Academy has established collaborations with universities and other academic institutions while also serving as one of ACI’s global training centers. TAV Aviation Minds, an offshoot of TAV Academy, was incorporated in 2013 to deploy the Company’s experience and know-how for the improvement of airports around the world.

The personal development needs of employees are served via training activities in various arts and crafts branches under the name TAV Workshop. As part of TAV Cup, tournaments are held throughout the year for staff members to experience teamwork in a wide range of sports.

Setting customer satisfaction as a strategic corporate goal, TAV strives to provide guests with a quick, comfortable and safe travel experience. As safety is paramount in the aviation business, TAV fully complies with all international and domestic requirements in cooperation with the relevant authorities.

In order to make all of the Company’s terminals fully accessible to special-needs passengers, TAV has implemented the “Obstacle-Free Airport Project” which was initiated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation of Turkey (SHGM). The initiatives implemented at the Istanbul Atatürk Airport as a result of the project were deemed by Vienna-based Zero Project to be among the best practices in the world in terms of accessibility.

TAV Gallery, a culture and arts platform created to ensure that passengers have a pleasant time while at the airport, hosts a large number of diverse exhibitions throughout the year.

Risk Management and Internal Audit RISKS AND RISK MANAGEMENT’S ASSESMENT a) Information on Risk Management Policy

Corporate Risk Management PolicyThe objective of TAV Airports Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Policy is to set forth the methods and principles for the execution of the responsibilities and functions that can be summarized as follows:

• Identifying risk factors that may have an impact on the processes carried out to attain TAV Airports’ corporate objectives,

• Assuring senior management and shareholders that the risks assumed are compatible with the Company’s risk-taking appetite,

• Assessing the risks that have the potential to create uncertainty and pose threats, formulating effective control and action plans commensurate with the levels of these risks, taking advantage of opportunities that arise, and working in cooperation with risk owners and enterprise risk management (ERM) officers to ensure the continuity of this cycle,

• Ensuring that management decisions are made with full awareness of related risks by carrying out prompt reporting to facilitate the functioning of decision mechanisms,

• Supporting the management of risks that are identified in different units and that have different impacts but that can have an effect on each other in the most

appropriate manner for the greater benefit of the Company rather than that of the individual unit, thus contributing to increased effectiveness and lower losses at the corporate level.

b) Information on the Activities and Reports of the Risk Assessment Committee

TAV Airports’ Risk Assessment Committee was established and commenced activity in accordance with the Turkish Commercial Code* (TCC), and the communiques and framework of the Corporate Governance Principles* of the Capital Markets Board. The Committee was chartered to undertake activities related to the early detection and management of all types of financial, operational, strategic and regulatory risks that threaten the existence, development and continuity of TAV Airports companies as well as to implement action plans for risks that need to be mitigated. In addition, the Committee oversees the functioning of the Enterprise Risk Management System and gathers information from Company executives, legal counsel and related units and performs assessments on a variety of matters including major lawsuits filed against the Company, provisions set aside against potential risks, exchange rate risk and determination of the Company’s strategy against potential threats. The Committee meets regularly every two months and additionally as needed to ensure the effectiveness of its activities.

* Principle no. 4.5.12 of the “Communiqué on the Determination and Implementation of Corporate Governance Principles” Series: IV, No: 56 as replaced by Communiqué Series: IV, No: 57 of the Capital Markets Board and Article 378 of the Turkish Commercial Code that went into effect in July 2012.

Page 87: TAV AIRPORTS HOLDING 2014 ANNUAL REPORTtavir.tavitlab.com/uploads/documents/tav-airports... · success in establishing partnerships, our target market is the whole world from now

85

Related management staff may be invited to the meetings of the Committee based on the meeting agenda. All activities and resolutions of the Risk Assessment Committee are documented as written meeting minutes and shared with senior management in the form of official reports.

c) Information about Applied Risk Management Policies

1. Financial Risk Management The Company may be exposed to the following risks depending on its use of financial instruments:

• Credit risk • Liquidity risk • Market risk

Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that a customer or a counter party to a financial instrument fails to honor its contractual obligations. Essentially, the Group’s customer receivables and financial losses that may arise from its bank balances constitute its credit risk.

The Group’s primary financial assets are cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other receivables.

The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is limited since the counter parties are banks with high creditworthiness.

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its future cash payments or other financial obligations. The Group’s liquidity risk is managed by securing adequate financing facilities from various financial institutions to fund existing and future borrowing requirements under normal circumstances or crisis conditions so as not to inflict damage on the Group or harm its reputation.

Market Risk Market risk consists of all changes in exchange rates, interest rates and prices of securities market instruments that can directly impact the Company’s revenues and the market value of its financial assets. TAV’s market risk management aims to keep its risk exposure within acceptable parameters while optimizing potential returns.

Risk Management and Internal Audit

2. Management of Strategic & Operational Risks The Company continuously undertakes improvement and development related activities at all airports operated by TAV Airports Holding in order to ensure efficient and safe operations amid the demands of growing passenger traffic. Medium and large scale problems that the Group may be exposed to within the expanding and evolving aviation industry are assessed by the Risk Committee and senior management on an ongoing basis and long-term strategies are formulated promptly to counter potential risks. Primary operational risks the Company may be exposed to include unexpected business interruptions, deterioration in service quality standards and the inability of aging terminal buildings to meet the Company’s needs. In accordance with its high quality service strategy, TAV Airports ensures that its service quality standard is maintained at the same high level by way of regular maintenance, repair, investment, renovation and expansion related projects at the terminals. The Company constantly monitors, updates and practices emergency operations plans against contingencies, preventing potential business interruptions and minimizing their impact on passengers. Infrastructure of the terminal buildings has been designed in accordance with specific standards against force majeure events; the Company is appropriately insured against losses from natural disasters and business interruptions. While it is impossible to fully eliminate risks, the Company takes these measures in order to minimize their consequences and impacts.

3. Management of Environmental Risks TAV Airports takes an environmentally responsible stance and embraces the principle of environmental protection to achieve sustainable long-term development. Adopting a large number of measures and carrying out numerous initiatives to manage environmental risks, TAV Airports strives to implement solutions above and beyond what is required by applicable laws, rules and regulations. TAV İstanbul Terminal İşletmeciliği (TAV Istanbul) has become the first airport operator to be awarded “Green Enterprise” certification as part of the “Green Airport” project of the General Directorate of Civil Aviation of Turkey (SHGM) of the Ministry of Transportation. TAV Group initiated efforts to obtain the “Level 1 Carbon Accreditation Certification” that is awarded by Airports Council International (ACI), the leading international organization of the global aviation industry. As part of this project, the Company is formulating sustainable development policies and undertaking environmental initiatives in order to reduce and contain the impacts of air, water, soil and noise pollution on natural life and habitats.

4. Management of Security, Safety and Health Risks Ensuring the physical security of airports and general aviation safety is a fundamental part of the operations of TAV Airports. To this end, the Group conducts security services through a private security subsidiary company that boasts ample experience and superior service quality. This security component can only be ensured through close collaboration with key stakeholders such as airlines, governmental authorities and the police. In accordance with this approach, TAV Group implemented Safety Management System practices while

Page 89: TAV AIRPORTS HOLDING 2014 ANNUAL REPORTtavir.tavitlab.com/uploads/documents/tav-airports... · success in establishing partnerships, our target market is the whole world from now

87

setting as a key criterion of sustainability the minimization of occupational health and safety-related incidents. Given the growing passenger traffic and the threats inherent in the nature of civil aviation, airport security issues will inevitably remain an ongoing concern. Nevertheless, it is possible to provide a high level of security service thanks to advanced safety and security measures as well as effective equipment and system installations. Similarly, step-by-step emergency response plans and preparations are ready to be implemented in conjunction with relevant stakeholders in the event of an epidemic risk at the airport facilities.

5. Management of Information Technology Risks Effectiveness and security of information technology systems are a key component of uninterrupted high-quality service provision at the airports. To this end, TAV Group regularly reviews the course of its IT infrastructure and projects in keeping with the corporate strategy and objectives. Risks related to IT security, which have proliferated rapidly in recent years, are monitored closely and countered with proactive measures. Still, even a minor interruption in IT systems can have major adverse consequences for the business continuity of airport operations. In an effort to mitigate this risk, the Company undertakes every possible preventive maintenance, improvement, protection and back-up initiative, thereby minimizing IT-based problems that may threaten business continuity.

6. Management of Legal, Regulatory and Compliance Risks The aviation industry is the most heavily regulated sector in Turkey and across the

globe. Even involuntary non-compliance with regulatory guidelines or breach of laws or contractual obligations may result in reputational damage, business interruption or financial losses for a company. While legal risk may appear to be a standalone risk type, it is in most cases linked with operational, financial, reputational, or tax risks. TAV Airports’ proactive and forward-looking approach toward monitoring the legal and regulatory changes in the industry helps the Company to avoid such risks. The Company thoroughly assesses precedent-bearing resolutions, anticipated changes by regulatory authorities, and the impacts of operational changes on statutory liability; identifies the potentially risk-bearing areas; and takes action in a timely manner.

Fourteen audits that also covered ATÜ, BTA and TAV Georgia were conducted in 2014; areas of improvement identified in conjunction with the Audit Committee were presented. The Department worked with all audited units and supported them in implementing the recommendations. In addition, the Advisory Services unit, which was established under the Holding’s Audit Directorate in 2014, began to support TAV Airports Holding and the Group companies. Its goal is to improve processes and practices as well as providing consultancy services related to minimization of risks that impact performance and implementation of the solution recommendations in improvement-prone areas. The consultancy services provided by the units span a wide range of areas including process management and restructuring, change management, support in procurement and project management in new process and system applications, and resolutions for the findings of internal audits.

146 TAV 2014 ANNUAL REPORT

Operational and Financial Performance• In 2014, total TAV Airports passengers

increased 14% with 10% like-for-like growth and 4% inorganic growth from Zagreb and Milas Bodrum domestic terminal. Istanbul Atatürk Airport international passengers increased 12% with the share of transfer passengers dropping to 37% from 38%.

• Revenue growth came in at 9% and slightly lower than like-for-like passenger growth due to weak duty free performance caused by FX volatility (TL and RUB) which however was partially offset by one-off income from projects followed of €15m. 48% of revenue came from aeronautical sources while 52% came from non-aeronautical sources.

• Aviation income increased 9%, in line with like-for-like passenger growth. Guaranteed Passenger Revenue was €19.5 million for Ankara versus €17.5 million in 2013 whereas it was €19.0 million for İzmir versus €18.5 million in 2013.

• Duty Free Commissions were flat in 2014 due mostly to departures area shop renovations, exchange rate fluctuations and impact of weak TL on arrival sales. Shop renovations were completed in April 2014, and revenue growth returned in third quarter

• Duty Free Spend per Passenger decreased from €14.8 in 2013 to €13.3 in 2014 due to departures area shop renovations, exchange rate fluctuations and impact of weak TL on arrival sales.

• Ground Handling Revenues increased 5% despite depreciation of TL and benign winter conditions leading to lower de-icing revenues.

• Total flights served by fully consolidated companies under HAVAŞ increased +8% while HAVAŞ only flights served increased 3% and TGS flights increased 12%.

• Catering and Retail Income increased 22% due to superb growth in Cakes&Bakes and the newly established logistics company.

• Other Operating Revenue increased 17% due to a significant increase in prime class income against pressured car park and bus services revenue due to weak TL. Other operating revenue was also positively affected by one-off income from projects followed of €15 million.

• Operating Expenses were up 5% helped by weak TL, cost discipline and IFRIC 12 accounting policy change.

• Cost of Catering Goods Sold increased 51% due to high input costs and increased capacity of Cakes & Bakes

Page 149: TAV AIRPORTS HOLDING 2014 ANNUAL REPORTtavir.tavitlab.com/uploads/documents/tav-airports... · success in establishing partnerships, our target market is the whole world from now

147

• Cost of Services Rendered which mainly consists of HAVAŞ’ operating expenses, Latvia’s concession payment and some minor BTA and O&M costs was flat.

• Personnel Costs increased 5% helped partially by weak TL despite a 6% increase in average headcount.

• Other Opex increased 9% predominantly due to new operations.

• EBITDAR thus increased 9% with strong operational performance also helped by weak TL.

• Concession and Rent Expenses decreased 5% in 2014 mainly due to accounting policy changes in İzmir and Bodrum.

• EBITDA was up 14% and showed margin expansion, due to strong operating leverage, HAVAŞ turnaround, favorable exchange rate conditions, lower concession and rent expenses and one off income from projects followed (€15m).

• Depreciaton and Amortization expenses increased 9%.

• EBIT increased 15% due to strong operating leverage, HAVAŞ turnaround, favorable exchange rate conditions, lower concession and rent expenses and one off income from projects followed (€15m).

• Net Finance Costs decreased 38%. TAV Ege finance expenses which were capitalised during the investment period started being expensed in second quarter of 2014. On the other hand, due to Ankara’s and İzmir’s IFRIC 12 reclassification of Airport Operation Rights to Trade Receivables, there was an increase in finance income of €4.6 million. There also was a €5.5 million increase in finance expenses due to İzmir (Ege) and Milas Bodrum accounting change.

• Net Finance Costs were positively affected by FX gains thanks to weak EUR vs. USD and active FX management policy aiming at reducing the volatility of profit to exchange rate fluctuations

• Taxes were down 5% due to deferred tax turning positive.

• Net Profit Attributable to Equity-Holders of the Company was up 64% and came in at €218 million.

• Net Debt increased 7% mainly due to Milas Bodrum rent pre-payment (€143m) in August and İzmir domestic terminal construction.

Independent auditors’ report to the shareholders of Tav Havalimanları Holding Anonim Şirketi

To the Shareholders of Tav Havalimanları Holding Anonim Şirketi

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Tav Havalimanları Holding Anonim Şirketi (the Company) and its subsidiaries (altogether will be referred to as “Group”), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014 and the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of 31 December 2014, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Other Matter

The consolidated financial statements of the Group, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as of 31 December 2013 were audited by another audit firm whose independent auditor’s report thereon dated February,18 2014 expressed an unqualified qualified opinion.

Description of Operations

The Group and its joint ventures’ core businesses are related to the construction of terminal buildings, management and operation of terminals or airports. TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir enter into Build Operate Terminate agreements (“BOT”) with Devlet Hava Meydanları İşletmesi Genel Müdürlüğü (General Directorate of State Airports Authority) (“DHMİ”), TAV Tbilisi with JSC Tbilisi International Airport (“JSC”), TAV Batumi with Georgian Ministry of Economic Development (“GMED”), TAV Tunisia with Tunisian Airport Authority (Office De L’Aviation Civil Et Des Aeroports) (“OACA”) and TAV Macedonia with Macedonian Ministry of Transportation and Communication (“MOTC”). Tibah Development enters into Build – Transfer – Operate (“BTO”) Agreements with General Authority of Civil Aviation (“GACA”). TAV Ege, TAV Milas Bodrum, and TAV Gazipaşa enter into concession agreement with DHMİ. Under these agreements, the Group agrees to build or renovate or manage an airport or terminal within a specified period of time and in exchange receives the right to operate the airport and terminal for a preestablished period of time. At the end of the contracts, the Group will transfer the ownership of the terminal buildings or airports back to the related public authority, DHMİ, JSC, GMED, OACA, MOTC and GACA accordingly. Group also signs separate contracts related with the airport operations. On 3 June 2005, TAV İstanbul signed a rent agreement to operate Atatürk International Airport Terminal (“AIAT”) and Atatürk Domestic Airport Terminal (“ADAT”) for 15.5 years until year 2021.

BOT, BTO and Concession Agreements

The airport terminals operated by the Group and its joint ventures are as follows:

İstanbul Atatürk International Airport

A BOT agreement was executed between TAV and DHMİ regulating the reconstruction, investment and operations of Atatürk International Airport International Lines Building (referred to as “Atatürk International Airport Terminal” or “AIAT”) in 1998. TAV was required to complete the construction by August 2000 and then had the right to operate the facilities of the International Lines Building for 3 years, 8 months and 20 days. TAV completed the reconstruction of the International Lines Building in January 2000 and started the operation seven months earlier, after completion of a significant portion of the construction. Construction of the remaining parts of the project was finalized in August 2000. DHMİ and the Undersecretariat of Treasury gave their acceptance of the project in August 2000 when the investment period was formally completed.

An addendum to the agreement was made in June 2000. Under the terms of the addendum, TAV committed to enlarge the International Lines Building by 30% by year 2004. In return for extending the International Lines Building, the operation period of TAV was extended by 13 months 12 days (approximately 66 months in total) through June 2005. The contract expired in June 2005 and TAV transferred Atatürk Domestic Airport Terminal (referred to as “ADAT”) and AIAT to DHMİ. On 3 June 2005, TAV İstanbul signed a rent agreement to operate AIAT and ADAT for 15.5 years until year 2021.

An addendum has been signed on 4 November 2008, namely Atatürk Airport Development Project, covering installation of new passenger boarding bridges and construction of new commercial areas. Through this addendum TAV has undertaken approximately EUR 36,000 of investment in exchange of the operation right of newly created commercial areas.

A tender was held on 3 May 2013 for construction of a new airport in İstanbul. It has been announced that the winning bid for the tender as per the tender specifications of Istanbul’s New Airport Project to be undertaken by BOT model within the framework of the procedures and principles defined by DHMI as per the law no. 3996 and cabinet decree no. 2011/1807 was offered by a venture other than the Company. TAV Holding and TAV İstanbul received a formal letter issued by DHMI dated 22 January 2013, stating that DHMI will fully reimburse the Company for all loss of profit over the remaining period of its existing rent period that may be incurred in case that another airport is opened for operation in Istanbul before the end of the rent period of TAV Istanbul. In addition, it is stated that independent expert companies may be consulted for the computation of the total reimbursement amount.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

a) Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”).

The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on 19 February 2015. The power to change the consolidated financial statements after the issuing of the consolidated financial statements is held by the General Assembly.

b) Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for derivative financial instruments which are measured at fair value.

The methods used to measure fair values are discussed further in Note 4.

c) Functional and presentation currency

TAV Holding and its subsidiaries operating in Turkey maintain their books of account and prepare their statutory financial statements in Turkish Lira (“TRL”) in accordance with the accounting principles as promulgated by the Turkish Commercial Code and tax legislation.

Functional currency of most of the Group companies operating in Turkey and other countries are determined to be Euro, different from their country’s currency according to IAS 21. Accordingly functional currency of TAV Holding as a parent company has been determined as Euro.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in EUR, which is the functional currency of TAV Group.

The table below summarizes the functional currencies of the Group entities and their joint ventures:

d) Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

Note 3(e) – mark-up applied to construction cost incurred under IFRIC 12 “Service Concession Arrangements”.

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial period are included in the following notes:

Note 3, 15 and 16 – useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assetsNote 16 – key assumptions used in discounted cash flow projectionsNote 20 – utilisation of tax losses and tax incentivesNote 29 – measurement of reserve for employee severance indemnityNote 34 and 36 – valuation of financial instruments

e) Changes in accounting policies

The Group has reassessed the accounting treatment regarding the concession agreement which was executed between TAV Esenboğa and DHMİ on 18 August 2004 for regulating the reconstruction, investment and operations of the Ankara Esenboğa International Airport (international and domestic terminals) for the period until May 2023.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied consistently by Group entities and their joint ventures.

a) Basis of consolidation

Each entity is consolidated based on the following methods:

• TAV İstanbul, TAV Esenboğa, TAV İzmir, TAV Ege, TAV Milas Bodrum, TAV Macedonia, TAV Gazipaşa, TAV Latvia, HAVAŞ, HYT İzmir, HYT Muğla, HYT Samsun, TAV İşletme, TAV İşletme Almanya, TAV Bilişim, TAV Güvenlik, TAV Akademi, Aviator Netherlands and TAV Uluslararası Yatırım are fully consolidated without non-controlling interest’s ownership.

• TAV Tunisia, TAV Tbilisi, TAV Batumi, Batumi Airport LLC, HAVAŞ Europe, HAVAŞ Europe Helsinki, HAVAŞ Europe Stockholm, HAVAŞ Germany, BTA, BTA Georgia, BTA Tunisia, BTA Macedonia, Cakes & Bakes, BTA Tedarik, BTA Danışmanlık, TAV İşletme Georgia, TAV İşletme Tunisia, TAV İşletme Tunisia Plus, TAV İşletme Macedonia, TAV Aviation Minds are fully consolidated with the non-controlling interest’s ownership reflected as a non-controlling interest. The equity of Batumi Airport LLC is fully reflected as non-controlling interest due to the transfer of right on shares to JSC at the end of share management agreement period.

• ATU, ATU Georgia, ATU Tunisia, ATU Macedonia, ATU Latvia, ATU Tunisia Duty Free, SAUDI ATU, ATU Mağazacılık, ATU Uluslararası Mağazacılık, TAV Gözen, TGS, SAUDI HAVAŞ, BTA Denizyolları, BTU Lokum, BTU Gıda, BTA Medinah, Tibah Development Tibah Operation, ZAIC-A, MZLZ, MZLZ Operation and AMS are consolidated using the equity method.

i) Business combinations:

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that currently are exercisable.

• The Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as:• the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus • the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus• if the business combination is achieved in stages, the fair value of the pre-existing equity interest in the acquire; less• the net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts generally are recognised in profit or loss.

Transactions costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

ii) Subsidiaries:

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

iii) Non-controlling interests

For each business combination, the Group elects to measure any non-controlling interests in the acquiree either:

• at fair value; or • at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets, which are generally at fair value.

Changes in the Group’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Adjustments to non-controlling interests are based on a proportionate amount of the net assets of the subsidiary. No adjustments are made to goodwill and no gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss.

On 3 October 2012, TAV Holding acquired 35% of HAVAŞ’s shares from İş Private Equity and HSBC Principal Investments in return for EUR 80,000. As a result, TAV Holding’s share in HAVAŞ increased to 100% and HAVAŞ is fully consolidated without any non-controlling interest ownership. The effect of this transaction is recognised as an equity transaction as other reserves in the consolidated financial statements.

iv) Acquisitions from entities under common control:

Business combinations arising from transfers of interests in entities that are under the control of the shareholder that controls the Group are accounted for as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or, if later, at the date that common control was established; for this purpose comparatives are restated. The assets and liabilities acquired are recognised at the carrying amounts recognised previously in the controlling shareholder’s consolidated financial statements. The components of equity of the acquired entities are added to the same components within the Group equity and any gain / loss arising is recognised directly in equity.

v) Loss of control:

Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in profit or loss. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained.

vi) Joint arrangements:

Joint arrangements are arrangements of which the Group has joint control, established by contracts requiring unanimous consent for decisions about the activities that significantly affect the arrangements’ returns. They are classified and accounted for as follows:

• Joint operation – when the Group has rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to an arrangement, it accounts for each of its assets, liabilities and transactions, including its share of those held or incurred jointly, in relation to the joint operation.

• Joint venture – when the Group has rights only to the net assets of the arrangements, it accounts for its interest using the equity method.

The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity-accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.

When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity-accounted investee, the carrying amount of the investment, including any long-term interests that form part thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

vii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation:

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

b) Foreign currency

i) Foreign currency transactions:

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items in a foreign currency that are measured based on historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss, except for differences arising on qualifying cash flow hedges to the extent the hedge is effective, which are recognised in other comprehensive income.

ii) Foreign operations:

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to Euro at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Euro at monthly average exchange rates.

Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve (translation reserve) in equity. However, if the foreign operation is a non-wholly-owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests. When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

The Group entities and their joint ventures use either EUR, TRL, USD, TND, MKD, SEK, GEL, HRK and SAR as functional currencies since these currencies are used to a significant extent in, or have a significant impact on, the operations of the related Group entities or their joint ventures and reflect the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances relevant to these entities. All currencies other than the currency selected for measuring items in the financial statements are treated as foreign currencies. Accordingly, transactions and balances not already measured in the functional currency have been re-measured to the related functional currencies. The Group uses EUR as the reporting currency.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

The financial statements of subsidiaries that report in the currency of an economy formerly accepted as hyperinflationary (Turkey) are restated in terms of the measuring unit current at the reporting dates until 31 December 2005 before they are translated into EUR as the reporting currency. Turkey came off highly inflationary status for the period beginning after 15 December 2005, therefore restatement for IAS 29 (“Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies”) has not been applied since 1 January 2006.

The financial statements of subsidiaries, namely BTA, TAV İşletme and TAV Güvenlik, which have the TRL as their functional currency, were restated to compensate for the effect of changes in the general purchasing power of the TRL until 31 December 2005, in accordance with IAS 29 as TRL was the currency of a hyperinflationary economy. Financial statements of such subsidiaries are then translated into Euro, the main reporting currency of the Group, by the exchange rate ruling at reporting date.

The foreign currency exchange rates as of the related periods are as follows:

1 Euro Equivalent31 December 2014 31 December 2013

c) Financial instruments

i) Non-derivative financial assets:

The Group initially recognises loans, receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Group has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Non-derivative financial assets of the Group comprise loans and receivables.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses (see Note 3(h)(i)).

Loans and receivables comprise cash and cash equivalents, restricted bank balances, trade receivables, due from related parties and guaranteed passenger fee receivable from DHMİ (Concession receivables) (see Note 23).

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with original maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date that are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value, and are used by the Group management of its short-term commitments.

The Group’s use of Project Accounts Reserve Accounts or Funding Accounts is based on certain conditions as defined in respective loan agreements. Therefore, bank balances included in these accounts are presented as restricted bank balances in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Service concession arrangements

The Group recognises a financial asset arising from a service concession arrangement when it has an unconditional contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset from or at the direction of the grantor for the construction or upgrade services provided. Such financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, the financial assets are measured at amortised cost.

If the Group is paid for the construction services partly by a financial asset and partly by an intangible asset, then each component of the consideration is accounted for separately and is recognised initially at the fair value of the consideration (see also accounting policy note on intangible assets below).

ii) Non-derivative financial liabilities:

The Group initially recognises debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities on the date that they are originated. All other financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.

The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into the other financial liabilities category. Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The Group has the following other financial liabilities: loans and borrowings, bank overdrafts, trade payables and due to related parties.

Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.

iii) Share capital:

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

iv) Derivative financial instruments, including hedge accounting:

The Group holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate risk exposures.

On initial designation of the derivative as the hedging instrument, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument(s) and hedged item(s), including the risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction and the hedged risk, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship. The Group makes an assessment, both at the inception of the hedge relationship as well as on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging instruments are expected to be “highly effective” in offsetting the changes in the fair value and cash flows of the respective hedged items attributable to the hedged risk, and whether the actual results of each hedge are within a range of 80-125 percent. For a cash flow hedge of a forecast transaction, the transaction should be highly probable to occur and should present an exposure to variations in cash flows that could ultimately affect reported profit or loss.

Derivatives are recognised initially at fair value; any attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss when incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for as described below.

Cash flow hedges

When a derivative is designated as the hedging instrument in a hedge of the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction that could affect profit or loss, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in the hedging reserve in equity. The amount recognised in other comprehensive income is removed and included in profit or loss in the same period as the hedged cash flows affect profit or loss under the same line item in the statement of comprehensive income as the hedged item. Any ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognised immediately in profit or loss. In other cases, when the hedged item is not a non-financial asset, the amount accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss in the same period that the hedged item affects profit or loss. If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the designation is revoked, then hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the balance in equity is reclassified in profit or loss.

d) Property and equipment

i) Recognition and measurement:

Items of property and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, and the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located and capitalised borrowing costs. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalised as part of that equipment.

When parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property and equipment are calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item and are recognised net within “other operating income / (expense)” in profit or loss.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

ii) Subsequent costs:

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. Ongoing repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred.

iii) Depreciation:

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated from the date that they are available for use, or in respect of self-constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and ready for use.

Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is generally recognised in profit or loss, unless the amount is included in the carrying amount of another asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not depreciated.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Buildings 50 yearsMachinery and equipment 4-18 yearsVehicles 5-18 yearsFurniture and fixtures 2-18 yearsLeasehold improvements 1-15 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

e) Intangible assets i) Goodwill:

Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries and joint ventures is included in intangible assets. For the measurement of goodwill at initial recognition, see Note 3(a)(i).

Subsequent measurement

Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

ii) Intangible assets recognised in a business combination:

Customer relationships are the intangible assets recognised during the purchase of HAVAŞ shares in years 2005 and 2007 and purchase of HAVAŞ Europe shares in 2010 and 2011. DHMİ license is the intangible asset recognised during the purchase of HAVAŞ shares in years 2005 and 2007. In a business combination or acquisition, the acquirer recognises separately an intangible asset of the acquiree at the acquisition date only if it meets the definition of an intangible asset and its fair value can be measured reliably. The fair values of DHMİ licence and customer relationship were determined by an independent external third party expert.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

The Group applied proportionate consolidation method to account for its 60% ownership interest in HAVAŞ until 30 September 2007. Therefore, intangible assets arising from the initial acquisition of HAVAŞ were reflected by 60%, being the shareholding of the Group, in the consolidated financial statements. In accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations, the Group applied step acquisition during the purchase of the remaining 40% shareholding in HAVAŞ. Customer relationship and DHMİ licence were remeasured to their fair values. The fair value change attributable to 60% portion was recorded to the revaluation reserve under equity. This figure reflected the change in fair value of intangible assets which were already carried in the consolidated financial statements prior to the acquisition of the additional 40% shareholding.

50% and 16.67% share purchases of HAVAŞ Europe are accounted by applying IFRS 3 in 2010 and 2011, respectively.

iii) Internally generated software:

Internally generated software consists of airport software developed by TAV Bilişim. Internally generated software with finite useful lives is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses.

iv) Other intangible assets:

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

v) Subsequent expenditure:

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

vi) Amortisation:

Except for goodwill, intangible assets are amortised on a straight-line basis in profit or loss over their estimated useful lives, from the date that they are available for use.

Purchased software is amortised over estimated useful lives, which is between 3-5 years. Intangible assets recognised during acquisitions of HAVAŞ and HAVAŞ Europe are customer relationships and DHMİ licence. Customer relationships have 5-10 years useful life and DHMİ licence has indefinite useful life since the duration of net cash inflow arising from DHMİ licence to the Company does not have any foreseeable limit. DHMİ licence is tested for impairment annually.

Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.

vii) Service concession arrangements

TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir are bound by the terms of the BOT Agreements made with DHMİ. According to the BOT agreements, TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir have guaranteed passenger fee to be received from DHMİ. The agreements cover a period up to January 2015 for TAV İzmir and May 2023 for TAV Esenboğa.

A BOT agreement was executed between TAV Tbilisi and JSC on 6 September 2005 for the operations of airport (both international, domestic terminals and parking-apron-taxi ways). The agreement covers a period up to February 2027.

A BOT agreement was executed between TAV Tunisia and OACA on 18 May 2007, for the operation of existing Monastir Habib Bourguiba Airport and new Enfidha Airport (International, domestic terminals and parking-apron-taxi-ways). The concession periods of both airports will end in May 2047.

A concession agreement was executed between TAV Gazipaşa and DHMİ on 4 January 2008 for the operation of Antalya Gazipaşa Airport (air side, land side, parking-apron-taxi ways). The agreement covers a period up to May 2034.

On 24 September 2008, a BOT agreement for the construction and operation of Alexander the Great Airport in Skopje, renovation and operation of the St. Paul the Apostle Airport in Ohrid, and the construction and optional operation of the New Cargo Airport in Shtip airports was signed between TAV Macedonia and the Ministry of Transport and Communication of Macedonia. The agreement covers a period up to March 2030.

A concession agreement was executed between TAV Ege and DHMİ on 16 December 2011 for the construction and operation of the domestic terminal of İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport and for taking-over the international terminal on January 2015. The agreement covers a period up to December 2032.

A concession agreement was executed between TAV Milas Bodrum and DHMİ on 11 July 2014 for the leasing of the operating rights of the Milas-Bodrum Airport’s existing international terminal, CIP, general aviation terminal, domestic terminal and its auxiliaries. The agreement covers the operation right of the international terminal starting from October 2015 to December 2035 (approximately 20 years and 2 months) and operation right of the domestic terminal starting from July 2015 to December 2035.

i) Intangible assets:

The Group recognises an intangible asset arising from a service concession agreement when it has a right to charge for usage of concession infrastructure. Intangible assets received as consideration for providing construction or upgrade services in a service concession agreement are measured at fair value upon initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition the intangible asset is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses.

The fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the construction services delivered includes a mark-up on the actual costs incurred to reflect a margin consistent with other similar construction work. Mark-up rates for TAV İzmir, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Gazipaşa, TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege are 0%, TAV Tbilisi and TAV Tunisia are 15% and 5% respectively.

The estimated useful life of an intangible asset in a service concession arrangement is the period from when the Group is able to charge the public for the use of the infrastructure to the end of the concession period. Amortisation of airport operation right is calculated based on units of production method over estimated passenger figures for Domestic Terminal of İzmir Adnan Menderes International Airport and Milas-Bodrum Airport. For airport operation right balances other than these terminals, amortisation is calculated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

ii) Financial assets:

The Group recognises the guaranteed passenger fee amount due from DHMİ as financial asset which is determined by the agreements with TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir. Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value. Fair value of financial assets is estimated as the present value of all future cash receipts discounted using the prevailing market rate of instrument. (see Note 4 (iii)).

iii) Accounting for operations contract (TAV İstanbul):

The costs associated with the operations contract primarily include rental payments and payments made to enhance and improve ADAT. TAV İstanbul prepaid certain rental amounts and the prepayment is deferred as prepaid rent and is recognised over the life of the prepayment period. The expenditures TAV İstanbul incurs to enhance and improve the domestic terminal are recorded as prepaid development expenditures and are being amortised over the life of the associated contract. Any other costs associated with regular maintenance are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

Under IFRIC 12 an operator recognises an intangible asset or financial asset received as consideration for providing construction or upgrade services or other items. TAV İstanbul has control over significant portion of revenue and has control over price. Therefore, no intangible asset or financial asset is recognised in TAV İstanbul’s financial statements and the revenue and costs relating to the operation services are recognised in accordance with IAS 18.

f) Leased assets

Leases in terms of which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.

Other leases are operating leases and the leased assets are not recognised on the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position.

g) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the first-in first-out (FIFO) principle, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make sale.

h) Impairment

i) Non-derivative financial assets:

A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security.

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

The Group considers evidence of impairment for loans and receivables at both a specific asset and collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. All individually significant receivables found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount, and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against loans and receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

ii) Non-financial assets:

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives or that one not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each period at the same time. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its related cash-generating unit (“CGU”) exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets (the “CGU”). Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGU’s that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

i) Reserve for employee severance indemnity

In accordance with the existing labour law in Turkey, the Group entities operating in Turkey are required to make lump-sum payments to employees who have completed one year of service and whose employment is terminated without cause or who retire, are called up for military service or die. Such payments are calculated on the basis of 30 days’ pay maximum full TRL 3,438 as at 31 December 2014 (equivalent to full EUR 1,219 as at 31 December 2014) (31 December 2013: full TRL 3,254 (equivalent to full EUR 1,108 as at 31 December 2013)) per year of employment at the rate of pay applicable at the date of retirement or termination. Reserve for retirement pay is computed and reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements on a current basis. The management of the Group used some assumptions (detailed in Note 29) in the calculation of the retirement pay provision. The calculation was based upon the retirement pay ceiling announced by the Government.

All actuarial differences are recognised immediately in other comprehensive income.

j) Provisions

A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money where appropriate and the risks specific to the liability.

k) Revenue

Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognised when significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognised as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognised.

Construction revenue and expenditure: Construction revenue and expenditure are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the reporting date, as measured by the proportion that contract costs incurred for work performed to date bear to the estimated total contract costs. Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that they have been agreed with the customer.

Where the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.

When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as aen expense immediately.

Service concession agreements: Revenue relating to construction services under a service concession arrangement is recognised based on the stage of completion of the work performed, consistent with the Group’s accounting policy on recognising revenue on construction contracts. Operation or service revenue is recognised in the period in which the services are provided by the Group. When the Group provides more than one service in a service concession arrangement the consideration received is allocated by reference to the relative fair values of the services delivered.

Aviation income: Aviation income is recognised based on the daily reports obtained from related airline companies for terminal service income charged to passengers, as well as for ramps utilised by aircraft and check-in counters utilised by the airlines.

Area allocation income: Area allocation income is recognised by the issuance of monthly invoices based on the contracts made for allocated areas in the terminal.

Catering services income: Catering services income is recognised when services are provided. The Group defers revenue for collections from long-term contracts until the services are provided. There are no deferred costs related to these revenues since these are related with the selling rights given to food and beverage companies to sell their products at domestic and international lines terminals as well as third parties out of the terminals where the subsidiaries operate.

Ground handling income: Ground handling income is recognised when the services are provided.

Commission: The Group subcontracts the right to operate certain duty free operations and the catering services to third parties. The third parties pay the Group a specified percentage of their sales for the right to operate these concessions. The commission revenue is recognised based on the sales reports provided from the subcontractor entities in every 2 to 3 days.

Software and system sales: Software and system sales are recognised when goods are delivered and title has passed or when services are provided.

Income from lounge services: Income from lounge services is recognised when services are provided.

Bus and car parking operations: Income from bus and car parking operations is recognised when services are provided.

l) Lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed.

m) Finance income and finance costs

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, unwinding of discount on guaranteed passenger fee receivable from DHMİ arising from the application of IFRIC 12, dividend income and gains on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised in profit or loss on the date that the Group’s right to receive payment is established.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, impairment losses recognised on financial assets, (other than trade receivables) and ineffective portion of hedging instruments. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

Foreign currency gains and losses on financial assets and financial liabilities are reported on a net basis as either finance income or finance cost depending on whether foreign currency movements are in a net gain or net loss position.

n) Tax

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

i) Current Tax:

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

ii) Deferred Tax:

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

The Turkish tax legislation does not permit a parent company and its subsidiaries to file a consolidated tax return. Therefore, provisions for taxes, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, have been calculated on a separate-entity basis.

iii) Tax exposures:

In determining the amount of current and deferred tax the Group takes into account the impact of uncertain tax positions and whether additional taxes and interest may be due. The Group believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including interpretations of tax law and prior experience. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgments about future events. New information may become available that causes the Group to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities will impact tax expense in the period that such a deter¬mination is made.

o) Earnings per share

The Group presents basic and diluted EPS data for its ordinary shares. Basic and diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the owners of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. There are no dilutive potential shares.

p) Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Group and its joint ventures that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other components. All operating segments’ operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group Management to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to the Group management include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate assets (primarily the Company’s headquarters), head office expenses, and income tax assets and liabilities.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.

q) The new standards, amendments and interpretations

The accounting policies adopted in preparation of the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2014 are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for the adoption of new and amended IFRS and IFRIC interpretations effective as of 1 January 2014. The effects of these standards and interpretations on the Group’s financial position and performance have been disclosed in the related paragraphs.

i) The new standards, amendments and interpretations which are effective as at 1 January 2014:

IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial liabilities (Amended)

The amendments clarify the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off” and also clarify the application of the IAS 32 offsetting criteria to settlement systems (such as central clearing house systems) which apply gross settlement mechanisms that are not simultaneous. These amendments did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

IFRS Interpretation 21 Levies

The interpretation clarifies that an entity recognizes a liability for a levy when the activity that triggers payment, as identified by the relevant legislation, occurs. It also clarifies that a levy liability is accrued progressively only if the activity that triggers payment occurs over a period of time, in accordance with the relevant legislation. For a levy that is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold, the interpretation clarifies that no liability should be recognized before the specified minimum threshold is reached. The interpretation is not applicable for Group and did not have any impact on the financial position or performance the Group.

IAS 36 Impairment of Assets (Amended) - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial assets

As a consequential amendment to IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, some of the disclosure requirements in IAS 36 Impairment of Assets regarding measurement of the recoverable amount of impaired assets has been modified. The amendments required additional disclosures about the measurement of impaired assets (or a group of assets) with a recoverable amount based on fair value less costs of disposal. These amendments did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (Amended) - Novation of Derivatives and Continuation of Hedge Accounting

Amendments provides a narrow exception to the requirement for the discontinuation of hedge accounting in circumstances when a hedging instrument is required to be novated to a central counterparty as a result of laws or regulations. These amendments did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (Amendment)

IFRS 10 is amended to provide an exception to the consolidation requirement for entities that meet the definition of an investment entity. The exception to consolidation requires investment entities to account for subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS. This amendment does not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

ii) Standards issued but not yet effective and not early adopted:

Standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards that are issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements are as follows. The Group will make the necessary changes if not indicated otherwise, which will be affecting the consolidated financial statements and disclosures, when the new standards and interpretations become effective.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – Classification and measurement

As amended in December 2012, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015. Phase 1 of this new IFRS introduces new requirements for classifying and measuring financial instruments. The amendments made to IFRS 9 will mainly affect the classification and measurement of financial assets and measurement of fair value option (FVO) liabilities and requires that the change in fair value of a FVO financial liability attributable to credit risk is presented under other comprehensive income. The Group will quantify the effect in conjunction with the other phases, when the final standard including all phases is adopted by Public Oversight Authority (POA).

IAS 19 Defined Benefit Plans: Employee Contributions (Amendment)

IAS 19 requires an entity to consider contributions from employees or third parties when accounting for defined benefit plans. The amendments clarify that, if the amount of the contributions is independent of the number of years of service, an entity is permitted to recognise such contributions as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the service is rendered, instead of allocating the contributions to the periods of service. These amendments are to be retrospectively applied for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014. The amendments will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

IFRS 11 Acquisition of an Interest in a Joint Operation (Amendment)

IFRS 11 is amended to provide guidance on the accounting for acquisitions of interests in joint operations in which the activity constitutes a business. This amendment requires the acquirer of an interest in a joint operation in which the activity constitutes a business, as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations, to apply all of the principles on business combinations accounting in IFRS 3 and other IFRSs except for those principles that conflict with the guidance in this IFRS. In addition, the acquirer shall disclose the information required by IFRS 3 and other IFRSs for business combinations. These amendments are to be applied prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. The amendments will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

IAS 16 and IAS 38 - Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation (Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38)

The amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38, have prohibited the use of revenue-based depreciation for property, plant and equipment and significantly limiting the use of revenue-based amortisation for intangible assets. The amendments are effective prospectively for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted.

IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 41 Agriculture (Amendment) – Bearer Plants

IAS 16 is amended to provide guidance that bearer plants, such as grape vines, rubber trees and oil palms should be accounted for in the same way as property, plant and equipment in IAS 16. Once a bearer plant is mature, apart from bearing produce, its biological transformation is no longer significant in generating future economic benefits. The only significant future economic benefits it generates come from the agricultural produce that it creates. Because their operation is similar to that of manufacturing, either the cost model or revaluation model should be applied. The produce growing on bearer plants will remain within the scope of IAS 41, measured at fair value less costs to sell. Entities are required to apply the amendments for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. The amendments are not applicable for Group and will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

Annual Improvements to IAS / IFRSs

In September 2014, POA has issued the below amendments to the standards in relation to “Annual Improvements - 2010–2012 Cycle” and “Annual Improvements - 2011–2013 Cycle. The changes are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2014.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs – 2010–2012 Cycle

IFRS 2 Share-based Payment:

Definitions relating to vesting conditions have changed and performance condition and service condition are defined in order to clarify various issues. The amendment is effective prospectively.

IFRS 3 Business Combinations Contingent consideration in a business acquisition that is not classified as equity is subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss whether or not it falls within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. The amendment is effective for business combinations prospectively.

IFRS 8 Operating Segments

The changes are as follows: i) Operating segments may be combined/aggregated if they are consistent with the core principle of the standard. ii) The reconciliation of segment assets to total assets is only required to be disclosed if the reconciliation is reported to the chief operating decision maker. The amendments are effective retrospectively.

IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment and IAS 38 Intangible Assets

The amendment to IAS 16.35(a) and IAS 38.80(a) clarifies that revaluation can be performed, as follows:i) Adjust the gross carrying amount of the asset to market value or ii) determine the market value of the carrying amount and adjust the gross carrying amount proportionately so that the resulting carrying amount equals the market value. The amendment is effective retrospectively.

IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures

The amendment clarifies that a management entity – an entity that provides key management personnel services – is a related party subject to the related party disclosures. The amendment is effective retrospectively.

Annual Improvements – 2011–2013 Cycle

IFRS 3 Business Combinations

The amendment clarifies that: i) Joint arrangements are outside the scope of IFRS 3, not just joint ventures ii) The scope exception applies only to the accounting in the financial statements of the joint arrangement itself. The amendment is effective prospectively.

Amendment to the Basis for Conclusions on IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

IAS 40 Investment Property

The amendment clarifies the interrelationship of IFRS 3 and IAS 40 when classifying property as investment property or owner-occupied property. The amendment is effective prospectively.

The Group does not expect that these amendments will have significant impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

The new standards, amendments and interpretations that are issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) but not issued by Public Oversight Authority (POA)

The following standards, interpretations and amendments to existing IFRS standards are issued by the IASB but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the financial statements. However, these standards, interpretations and amendments to existing IFRS standards are not yet adapted/issued by the POA, thus they do not constitute part of IFRS. The Group will make the necessary changes to its consolidated financial statements after the new standards and interpretations are issued and become effective under IFRS.

Annual Improvements – 2010–2012 Cycle

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

As clarified in the Basis for Conclusions short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rates can be held at invoice amounts when the effect of discounting is immaterial. The amendment is effective immediately.

IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new five-step model in the standard provides the recognition and measurement requirements of revenue. The standard applies to revenue from contracts with customers and provides a model for the sale of some non-financial assets that are not an output of the entity’s ordinary activities (e.g., the sale of property, plant and equipment or intangibles). IFRS 15 is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017, with early adoption permitted. Entities will transition to the new standard following either a full retrospective approach or a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach would allow the standard to be applied beginning with the current period, with no restatement of the comparative periods, but additional disclosures are required. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the standard on financial position or performance of the Group.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments - Final standard (2014)

In July 2014 the IASB published the final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. The final version of IFRS 9 brings together the classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting phases of the IASB’s project to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 is built on a logical, single classification and measurement approach for financial assets that reflects the business model in which they are managed and their cash flow characteristics. Built upon this is a forward-looking expected credit loss model that will result in more timely recognition of loan losses and is a single model that is applicable to all financial instruments subject to impairment accounting. In addition, IFRS 9 addresses the so-called ‘own credit’ issue, whereby banks and others book gains through profit or loss as a result of the value of their own debt falling due to a decrease in credit worthiness when they have elected to measure that debt at fair value. The Standard also includes an improved hedge accounting model to better link the economics of risk management with its accounting treatment. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. However, the Standard is available for early application. In addition, the own credit changes can be early applied in isolation without otherwise changing the accounting for financial instruments. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the standard on financial position or performance of the Group.

IAS 27 Equity Method in Separate Financial Statements (Amendments to IAS 27)

In August 2014, IASB issued an amendment to IAS 27 to restore the option to use the equity method to account for investments in subsidiaries and associates in an entity’s separate financial statements. Therefore, an entity must account for these investments either: at cost, in accordance with IFRS 9 (or IAS 39) or using the equity method.

The entity must apply the same accounting for each category of investments. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. The amendments must be applied retrospectively. Early application is permitted and must be disclosed. The amendments are not applicable for Group and will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

Annual Improvements to IFRSs - 2012-2014 Cycle

In September 2014, IASB issued their annual cycle of improvements to IFRSs, Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2012-2014 Cycle. The document sets out five amendments to four standards, excluding those standards that are consequentially amended, and the related Basis for Conclusions. The standards affected and the subjects of the amendments are:

• IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations – changes in methods of disposal • IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures – servicing contracts; applicability of the amendments to IFRS 7 to

financial statements • IAS 19 Employee Benefits – regional market issue regarding discount rate

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016, with earlier application permitted. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of the standard on financial position or performance of the Group.

IFRS 10 and IAS 28: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture - Amendments

In September 2014, IASB issued amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28, to address the acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and IAS 28 in dealing with the loss of control of a subsidiary that is contributed to an associate or a joint venture, to clarify that an investor recognises a full gain or loss on the sale or contribution of assets that constitute a business, as defined in IFRS 3, between an investor and its associate or joint venture. The gain or loss resulting from the re-measurement at fair value of an investment retained in a former subsidiary should be recognised only to the extent of unrelated investors’ interests in that former subsidiary. An entity shall apply those amendments prospectively to transactions occurring in annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment is not applicable for the Group and will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28: Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28)

In December 2014, IASB issued amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28, to address the issues that have arisen in applying the investment entities exception under IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. The amendment is not applicable for the Group and will not have an impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.

IAS 1: Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to IAS 1)

In December 2014, IASB issued amendments to IAS 1. Those amendments include narrow-focus improvements in the following five areas: Materiality, Disaggregation and subtotals, Notes structure, Disclosure of accounting policies, Presentation of items of other comprehensive income (OCI) arising from equity accounted investments. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application is permitted. These amendments are not expected to have significant impact on the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

4. DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

i) Property and equipment:

The fair value of property and equipment recognised as a result of a business combination is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of acquisition between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably and willingly. The fair value of items of equipment, fixtures and fittings is based on the market approach and cost approaches using quoted market prices for similar items when available and depreciated replacement cost when appropriate. Depreciated replacement cost reflects adjustments for physical deterioration as well as functional and economic obsolescence.

ii) Intangible assets:

The fair value of intangible assets is based on the discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the use and eventual sale of the assets.

The fair values of customer relationship and DHMİ licence acquired in a business combination are determined according to the excess earnings method and depreciated replacement cost approach, respectively.

The airport operation right as an intangible asset is initially recognised at cost, being the fair value of consideration transferred to acquire the asset, which is the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the construction services delivered less any financial asset recognised. The fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the construction services delivered includes a mark-up on the actual costs incurred to reflect a margin consistent with other similar construction work. Mark-up rates for TAV İzmir, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Gazipaşa, TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege are 0%, TAV Tbilisi and TAV Tunisia are 15% and %5 respectively.

iii) Trade and other receivables:

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. Short-term receivables with no stated interest rate are measured at the original invoice amount if the effect of discounting is immaterial. This fair value is determined for disclosure purposes or when acquired in a business combination.

iv) Derivatives:

The fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds) or option pricing models.

The fair value of interest rate swaps is based on broker quotes. Those quotes are tested for reasonableness by discounting estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturity of each contract and using market interest rates for a similar instrument at the measurement date.

Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instrument and include adjustments to take account of the credit risk of the Group entity and counterparty when appropriate.

v) Other non-derivative financial liabilities:

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

Fair value hierarchy:

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:

• Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

• Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

• Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Turkey

The Turkish entities within the Group are subject to Turkish corporate taxes. Provision is made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the estimated charge based on the each of the Group entities’ results for the period.

Corporate tax is applied on taxable corporate income, which is calculated from the statutory accounting profit by adding back non-deductible expenses, and by deducting dividends received from resident companies, other exempt income and investment incentives utilised.

In Turkey, advance tax returns are filed on a quarterly basis. The advance corporate income tax rate at 31 December 2014 is 20% (31 December 2013: 20%). Losses can be carried forward for offsetting against future taxable income for up to 5 years. Losses cannot be carried back.

In Turkey, there is no procedure for a final and definitive agreement on tax assessments. Companies file their tax returns between 1-25 April following the close of the accounting year to which they relate. Tax authorities may, however, examine such returns and the underlying accounting records and may revise assessments within five years.

Georgia

Georgian corporate income tax is levied at a rate of 15% on income less deductible expenses.

Tunisia

Tunisian corporate income tax is levied at a rate of 25% on income less deductible expenses (31 December 2013: 30%). The corporate income tax is reduced to 25% effective from 1 January 2014.

Macedonia

Macedonian corporate income tax is levied at a rate of 10% on income less deductible expenses as from 2014 onwards (including determination of 2014 CIT). Losses can be carried forward for 3 years.

Latvia

Latvian corporate income is levied at a rate of 15% on income less deductible expenses.

Investment allowance:

The Temporary Article 69 added to the Income Tax Law no.193 with the Law no.5479, which became effective starting from 1 January 2006, upon being promulgated in the Official Gazette no. 26133 dated 8 April 2006, stating that taxpayers can deduct the amount of the investment allowance exemption which they are entitled to according to legislative provisions effective at 31 December 2005 (including rulings on the tax rate) only from the taxable income of 2006, 2007 and 2008. Accordingly, the investment incentive allowance practice was ended as of 1 January 2006. At this perspective, an investment allowance which cannot be deducted partially or fully in three years time was not allowed to be carried forward to the following years and became unavailable as of 31 December 2008. On the other hand, the Article 19 of the Income Tax Law was annulled and the investment allowance practice was ended as of 1 January 2006 with effectiveness of the Article 2 and the Article 15 of the Law no. 5479 and the investment allowance rights on the investment expenditures incurred during the period of 1 January 2006 and 8 April 2006 became unavailable.

However, at 15 October 2009, the Turkish Constitutional Court decided to cancel the clause no. 2 of the Article 15 of the Law no. 5479 and the expressions of “2006, 2007, 2008” in the Temporary Article 69 related to investment allowance mentioned above that enables effectiveness of the Law as of 1 January 2006 rather than 8 April 2006, since it is against the Constitution. Accordingly, the time limitations for the carried forward investment allowances that were entitled to in the previous period of mentioned date and the limitations related with the investments expenditures incurred between the issuance date of the Law promulgated and 1 January 2006 were eliminated. According to the decision of Turkish Constitutional Court, cancellation related with the investment allowance became effective with promulgation of the decision on the Official Gazette and the decision of the Turkish Constitutional Court was promulgated in the Official Gazette no. 27456 dated 8 January 2010.

According to the decision mentioned above, the investment allowances carried forward to the year 2006 due to the lack of taxable income and the investment allowances earned through the investments started before 1 January 2006 and continued after that date constituting economic and technical integrity will be used not only in 2006, 2007 and 2008, but also in the following years. In addition, 40% of investment expenditures that are realized between 1 January 2006 and 8 April 2006, within the context of the Article 19 of the Income Tax Law will have the right for investment allowance exemption.

The Article 5 of the Law no. 6009 “Law on the Amendment of the Income Tax Law and Certain Laws and Decree Laws” which was promulgated in the Official Gazette on 1 August 2010 regulated the amount of investment incentive to be benefited in computing the corporate tax base after the cancellation of the Article no.2 of the Law no. 5479. According to the Law no. 6009, the taxpayers were allowed to benefit from the investment incentive stemming from the periods before the promulgation of the Law no. 5479, up to 25% of the taxable income of the respective tax period. Such change is effective including the fiscal year ending on 31 December 2011.

However, on 9 February 2012, the Turkish Constitutional Court decided to cancel the Article 5 of the Law no. 6009 and stay of execution of the article was promulgated in the Official Gazette no. 28208 dated 18 February 2012. Accordingly, taxpayers are allowed to benefit from the investment incentive without any limitation. The annulment of the article was promulgated in the Official Gazette no. 28719 dated 26 July 2013.

Income withholding tax:

According to Corporate Tax Law code numbered 5520 article 15, companies who are resident in Turkey, should calculate 15% income withholding tax on dividends distributed to non-resident companies, individuals and resident individuals. Where there is a tax treaty between Turkey and the country of the dividend recipient is a resident taxpayer, the applicable rate might be less than the local rate. Undistributed dividends incorporated in share capital are not subject to income withholding taxes.

Transfer pricing regulations:

In Turkey, the transfer pricing provisions have been stated under the Article 13 of Corporate Tax Law with the heading of “disguised profit distribution via transfer pricing”. The General Communiqué on disguised profit distribution via Transfer Pricing, dated 18 November 2007 sets details about implementation.

If a taxpayer enters into transactions regarding sale or purchase of goods and services with related parties, where the prices are not set in accordance with arm’s length principle, then related profits are considered to be distributed in a disguised manner through transfer pricing. Such disguised profit distributions through transfer pricing are not accepted as tax deductible for corporate income tax purposes.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

DHMİ licenses acquired through the purchase of HAVAŞ shares in years 2005 and 2007 were recognised with indefinite useful lives since there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which they are expected to generate net cash inflows. The useful life of DHMİ license associated with the acquisition of HAVAŞ was deemed indefinite since;

• without these licenses ground handling companies could not operate,• it is difficult to obtain the licence, which requires high pre-operational costs and procurement of workforce and

equipment required to deliver ground handling services• the continuity of the license requires low annual payments compared to initial license cost.

The replacement cost method was used in order to determine the fair value of the DHMI licences for impairment testing. As a result of the impairment testing no impairment was recognized.

Goodwill

An analysis of goodwill as at 31 December 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

31 December 2014 31 December 2013Balance at 1 January 136,149 136,149Goodwill impairment (318) -Balance at the end of the year 135,831 136,149

Goodwill is related with the CGU’s HAVAŞ, HAVAŞ Europe and TAV Tbilisi as at 31 December 2014 and 2013.

Impairment testing for CGU’s

For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to CGU’s. The aggregate carrying amounts of goodwill allocated to each CGU are as follows:

31 December 2014 31 December 2013HAVAŞ 131,565 131,565TAV Tbilisi 3,858 3,858HAVAŞ Europe 408 726

135,831 136,149

A valuation for the fair values of HAVAŞ, TAV Tbilisi and HAVAŞ Europe as three separate CGU’s was performed by an independent valuation expert. The income and market approaches were used to determine the fair values of HAVAŞ, TAV Tbilisi and HAVAŞ Europe. In the analysis, income approach (discounted cash flow method) was mostly used, with lower weightings applied to the value of HAVAŞ, TAV Tbilisi and HAVAŞ Europe resulting from the Guideline Transaction and Company methods.

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

25-year business plan prepared by the management for HAVAŞ and 13-year business plan prepared by the management for TAV Tbilisi were used in the valuation of companies. The growth in business plan of HAVAŞ and TAV Tbilisi is driven by the opportunities in companies’ businesses and addition of new customers.

As a result of the impairment testing performed on CGU basis, no impairment loss was recognised for HAVAŞ and TAV Tbilisi and EUR 318 impairment loss was recognized for HAVAŞ Europe as at 31 December 2014.

Key assumptions used in discounted cash flow projections

Key assumptions used in calculation of recoverable amounts are discount rates and terminal growth rates. These assumptions are as follows:

Pre-tax discount rate Terminal growth rateHAVAŞ 14.6% 2.0%TAV Tbilisi 18.0% -HAVAŞ Europe 12.0% 2.5%

Discount rate

The discount rates used in discounted cash flows are the weighted average cost of capitals (“WACC”) of the companies.

Terminal growth rate for HAVAŞ is determined as 2.0% and HAVAŞ Europe as 2.5%. Since TAV Tbilisi has a limited life, terminal growth rate is not used in the valuation.

Market Approach

The Guideline Transaction Method utilises valuation multiples based on actual transactions that have occurred in the subject company’s industry. These derived multiples are then applied to the appropriate operating data of the subject company to arrive at an indication of fair market value. Guideline Company Method focuses on comparing the subject company to guideline publicly-traded companies.

DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The Group recognises deferred tax assets and liabilities in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. These differences usually result in the recognition of revenue and expenses in different reporting periods for IFRS and tax purposes and they are given below.

For calculation of deferred tax asset and liabilities, the rate of 20% for subsidiaries and joint ventures in Turkey (31 December 2013: 20%), the rate of 15% for subsidiaries and joint ventures in Georgia and Latvia (31 December 2013: 15%), the rate of 25% for subsidiaries in Tunisia (31 December 2013: 25%) and the rate of 10% for subsidiaries in Macedonia (31 December 2013: 10%) are used.

218 TAV 2014 ANNUAL REPORT

TAV HAVALİMANLARI HOLDİNG A.Ş. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIESNOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS AT AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014(Amounts expressed in thousands of Euro unless otherwise stated. Currencies other than Euro also expressed in thousands unless otherwise stated.)

At the reporting date, the Group has unused tax losses of EUR 388,679 (31 December 2013: EUR 310,630) available for offset against future profits. Tax losses can be carried forward for five years under the current tax legislation. Deferred tax asset amounting to EUR 17,542 related with the unused tax losses (31 December 2013: EUR 14,505) is recognised as at 31 December 2014, since it is assessed as probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available, through increase in passenger numbers and improved operational performance in the following years, against which the unused tax losses amounting to EUR 71,571 can be utilised before they expire. Total tax loss carry forwards will expire as follows:

31 December 2014 31 December 2013Expire in year 2014 - 63,189Expire in year 2015 28,154 7,460Expire in year 2016 13,407 9,856Expire in year 2017 33,788 35,290Expire in year 2018 and after 313,330 194,835Total 388,679 310,630

Recognized tax loss carry forwards amounting to EUR 66,200 (31 December 2013: EUR 54,301) arise from TAV Tunisia’s losses, and can be carried forward without any time restriction.

As per the annulment decision of the Turkish Constitutional Court (see Note 14) in 2012, TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir, consolidated subsidiaries of the Group, are subject to investment allowance ruling and can use their available allowances to reduce their taxable corporate income without any time limitations. Accordingly, deferred tax asset amounting to EUR 37,690 (31 December 2013: EUR 34,039) on such investment allowance of TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir is recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2014 since it is assessed as probable that TAV Esenboğa and TAV İzmir will use their right of deducting investment allowances from their corporate income after deducting carry forward tax losses to the extent that sufficient future taxable profits will be available till the end of their concession periods.

Unrecognised deferred tax assets and liabilities

Unrecognised deferred tax assets as at 31 December 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

31 December 2014 31 December 2013Tax loss carry-forwards 68,639 58,965

68,639 58,965

The tax incentives do not expire under current tax legislation. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of the investment incentives and tax loss carry forwards where it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the benefits there from till the end of concession periods.

As at 31 December 2014, a deferred tax liability of EUR 46,481 (31 December 2013: EUR 51,212) related to investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures was not recognised since it is not assessed as probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future.

• It is the Group’s policy to lease certain of its fixtures and equipment under finance leases. The average remaining lease term is three years as at 31 December 2014. For the year ended 31 December 2014, the average effective borrowing rate is 6.93% (31 December 2013: 3.64%). Interest rates are fixed at the contract date, and thus expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. All leases are on a fixed repayment basis and no arrangements have been entered into for contingent rental payments

29. RESERVE FOR EMPLOYEE SEVERANCE INDEMNITY

Under the Turkish Labour Law, the Company and its Turkish subsidiaries and joint ventures are required to pay termination benefits to each employee who has completed one year of service and whose employment is terminated without due cause, is called up for military service, dies or who retires after completing 25 years of service (20 years for women) and reaches the retirement age (58 for women and 60 for men). Since the legislation was changed on 8 September 1999, there are certain transitional provisions relating to length of service prior to retirement.

Such payments are calculated on the basis of 30 days’ pay maximum full TRL 3,438 TL as at 31 December 2014 (equivalent to full EUR 1,219) (31 December 2013: full TRL 3,254 TL (equivalent to full EUR 1,108)) per year of employment at the rate of pay applicable at the date of retirement or termination. Reserve for retirement pay is computed and reflected in the financial statements on a current basis. The reserve has been calculated by estimating the present value of future probable obligation of the Company and its Turkish subsidiaries and joint ventures arising from the retirement of the employees. The calculation was based upon the retirement pay ceiling announced by the government.

The provision has been calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Company and its subsidiaries and joint venture registered in Turkey arising from the retirement of employees. IFRSs require actuarial valuation methods to be developed to estimate the enterprise’s obligation under defined benefit plans. Accordingly, the following actuarial assumptions were used in the calculation of the total liability:

The principal assumption is that the maximum liability for each year of service will increase in line with inflation. Thus, the discount rate applied represents the expected real rate after adjusting for the anticipated effects of future inflation. Consequently, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2014, the provision has been calculated by estimating the present value of the future probable obligation of the Group arising from the retirement of the employees. The provision at 31 December 2014 has been calculated assuming an annual inflation rate of 5.00% and a discount rate of 9.45% resulting in a real discount rate of approximately 4.23% (31 December 2013: an annual inflation rate of 5.00% and a discount rate of 10.97% resulting in a real discount rate of approximately 5.69%). It is planned that retirement rights will be paid to employees at the end of concession periods. Accordingly, present value of the future probable obligation has been calculated based on the concession periods.

TAV Esenboğa uses interest rate swap to manage its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on its bank borrowings. As at 31 December 2014, 100% of project finance loan is hedged through Interest Rate Swap (“IRS”) contract during the life of the loan with an amortising schedule depending on repayment of the loan (31 December 2013: 100%).

Cross currency swap:

TAV İstanbul uses cross currency swaps to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its rent installments that will be paid to DHMİ in terms of USD.

TAV İstanbul had signed a derivative contract with Dexia Credit Local (“DCL”) on 12 March 2008 to manage and fix its exposure on foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations between USD and EUR on the rent installments that will be paid to DHMİ till 2018. TAV İstanbul terminated the hedge relationship in 2010 and two new cross currency swap contracts were signed by and between TAV İstanbul, DCL, and ING Bank N.V. on 16 December 2010. The total notional amount of the contract is EUR 153,882 (in exchange of USD 202,816) as at 31 December 2014 (31 December 2013: EUR 194,877 (in exchange of USD 256,847)).

The fair value of derivatives at 31 December 2014 is estimated at loss of EUR 131,542 (31 December 2013: EUR 121,146). This amount is based on market values of equivalent instruments at the reporting date. Since the Group applied hedge accounting as at 31 December 2014, changes in the fair value of these interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps are reflected to other comprehensive income resulting to an expense of EUR 29,780 (31 December 2013: income of EUR 30,714) net of tax.

Fair value disclosures:

The Group has determined the estimated fair values of the financial instruments by using current market information and appropriate valuation methods.

35. OPERATING LEASES

The Group entered into various operating lease agreements (excluding rent agreement for TAV İstanbul and concession agreement for TAV Macedonia, TAV Tunisia and TAV Ege). For the year ended 31 December 2014, total rent expenses for operating leases amounted to EUR 5,632 recognised in profit or loss (31 December 2013: EUR 5,326).

36. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Exposure to credit, interest rate and currency risks arises in the normal course of the Group’s business. However, most of the Group’s revenues are denominated in hard currency. The gap between hard currency assets and liabilities are hedged by derivative financial instruments such as cross currency swaps. In addition to hedging of the currency risk, TAV İstanbul, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Tunisia, HAVAŞ, TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege use interest rate swaps to hedge the fluctuations in Euribor and Libor rates (i.e. 100%, 100%, 83%, 50%, 80% and 99% of floating loans of TAV İstanbul, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Tunisia, HAVAŞ, TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege respectively are fixed).

Sensitivity analysis:

The Group’s principal currency risk relates to changes in the value of the Euro relative to TRL and USD. The Group manages its exposure to foreign currency risk by entering into derivative contracts and, where possible, seeks to incur expenses with respect to each contract in the currency in which the contract is denominated and attempt to maintain its cash and cash equivalents in currencies consistent with its obligations.

The basis for the sensitivity analysis to measure foreign exchange risk is an aggregate corporate-level currency exposure. The aggregate foreign exchange exposure is composed of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, both short-term and long-term purchase contracts. A 10 percent strengthening / (weakening) of EUR against the following currencies at 31 December 2014 and 2013 would have increased / (decreased) equity and profit or loss by the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant.

Interest rate risk

The Group has used material amounts of bank borrowings from foreign financial institutions and banks. Although most of these borrowings have floating interest rates, the Group management and banks fixed interest rates by using derivative financial instruments. TAV İstanbul, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Tunisia, HAVAŞ TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege use interest rate swaps to hedge the fluctuations in Euribor and Libor rates (i.e. Interest payments of 100%, 100%, 83%, 50%, 80% and 99% of floating loans of TAV İstanbul, TAV Esenboğa, TAV Tunisia, HAVAŞ, TAV Macedonia and TAV Ege respectively are fixed). Hedge accounting is applied for the mentioned derivative financial instruments.

Profile:

At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the Group’s interest-bearing financial instruments was:

Carrying amount31 December 2014 31 December 2013

Fixed rate instrumentsFinancial assets 439,845 386,783Financial liabilities (500,332) (401,235)

(60,487) (14,452)

Carrying amount31 December 2014 31 December 2013

Variable rate instrumentsFinancial assets - -Financial liabilities (1,037,956) (1,075,664)

(1,037,956) (1,075,664)

Fair value sensitivity analysis for fixed rate instruments:

The Group does not account for any fixed rate financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, and the Group does not designate derivatives (interest rate swaps) as hedging instruments under a fair value hedge accounting model. Therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments:

Based on the Group’s current borrowing profile, a 50 basis points increase in Euribor or Libor would have resulted in additional interest expense of approximately EUR 417 on the Group’s variable rate debt when ignoring effect of derivative financial instruments. EUR 438 of the exposure is hedged through interest rate swap contracts. Therefore, the net exposure on statement of comprehensive income would be EUR 21. A 50 basis points increase in Euribor or Libor would have resulted an increase in cash flow hedge reserve in equity approximately by EUR 21,039 and a 50 basis points decrease in Euribor or Libor would have resulted a decrease in cash flow hedge reserve in equity approximately by EUR 30,537. Financial risk management

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

• credit risk• liquidity risk• market risk• operational risk

This note presents information about the Group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the Group’s management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout these consolidated financial statements.

Risk management framework

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework.

The Group has established a Risk Management Department who is responsible for the Enterprise Risk Management function within the Group, and aims to develop a disciplined and constructive risk management and control environment in which all employees know and understand their roles and responsibilities.

All directors act to ensure an effective risk management and internal control process, providing assurance in relation to continuous identification and evaluation of the risks that exist in all main process areas.

The Group Audit Committee is assisted in its oversight role by Internal Audit. The mission of the Internal Audit Directorate of the Group is to assist TAV Holding Board of Directors and Management (including subsidiaries) in their oversight, management and operating responsibilities by identifying; ineffectiveness of internal control, risk management and governance processes inefficiencies that cause waste of its resources and making professional recommendations through independent audits (reports) and / or advisory services.

Internal audit plans are based on risk assessments as well as the issues highlighted by the Audit Committee and the management. Risk assessment is conducted and coordinated by Risk Management Department on continuous basis so as to identify and evaluate not only existing risks but also emerging risks. Formally, risk assessment is made annually but more often if required.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group’s receivables from customers and bank balances.

The Group’s principal financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables.

Credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings.

The Group has procedures in place to ensure that services are provided to customers with an appropriate credit history. The carrying amount of trade and other receivables, net of provision for impairment of receivables, and the total of cash and cash equivalents, represents the maximum amount exposed to credit risk. The main customer is Turkish Airlines (THY). Based on past history with this customer, the Group management believes there is no significant credit risk for this customer. Although collection of receivables could be influenced by economic factors, management believes that there is no significant risk of loss to the Group beyond the provisions already recorded due to reputation and type of customers for the airlines (well-known reputable, international and flag carrier companies).

In addition, the Group receives letters of guarantee, and notes from certain customers whose credibility is low.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group uses activity-based costing to cost its products and services, which assists it in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments. Typically the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational and financial expenses, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

The Group buys and sells derivatives, and also incurs financial liabilities, in order to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by lenders and executives of the Group as mentioned in Note 34.

The Group applies hedge accounting in order to manage volatility in profit or loss.

i) Currency risk:

Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group has exposure to the effects of fluctuations in the prevailing foreign currency exchange rates on its financial position and cash flows. As at 31 December 2013, the Group had balances that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily EUR, but also USD, GEL, TND, MKD, SEK, SAR, TRL, and HRK which are disclosed within the relevant notes to these consolidated financial statements. The currencies in which these transactions primarily denominated are USD and TRL. The Group manages this currency risk by maintaining foreign currency cash balances and using some financial instruments.

ii) Interest rate risk:

The Group adopts a policy of ensuring that between 50 and 100 percent of its exposure to changes in interest rates on borrowings is on a fixed rate basis. This is achieved by entering into interest rate swaps.

Operational risk

Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated with the Group’s processes, personnel, technology and infrastructure, and from external factors other than credit, market and liquidity risks such as those arising from legal and regulatory requirements and generally accepted standards of corporate behaviour. Operational risks arise from all of the Group’s operations.

The Group’s objective is to manage operational risk so as to balance the avoidance of financial losses and damage to the Group’s reputation with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control procedures that restrict initiative and creativity.

The primary responsibility for the development and implementation of controls to address operational risk is assigned to senior management within each business unit. This responsibility is supported by the development of overall Group standards for the management of operational risk in the following areas:

• requirements for appropriate segregation of duties, including the independent authorisation of transactions • requirements for the reconciliation and monitoring of transactions• compliance with regulatory and other legal requirements • documentation of controls and procedures • requirements for the periodic assessment of operational risks faced, and the adequacy of controls and procedures to

address the risks identified • requirements for the reporting of operational losses and proposed remedial action • development of contingency plans • training and professional development • ethical and business standards • risk mitigation, including insurance where this is effective.

Compliance with Group standards is supported by a programme of periodic reviews undertaken by Internal Audit. The results of Internal Audit reviews are discussed with the management of the business unit to which they relate, with summaries submitted to the Audit Committee and senior management of the Group.

Capital management

The Board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence; to sustain future development of the business and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

Contingent liability

TAV Security has undergone a tax inspection by the Tax Inspectors of the Ministry of Finance on the value added tax returns for the periods between January 2007 and December 2011. The tax inspector claimed that the staff should have been in the payroll of TAV Security and TAV Security could not render such a service without having its own personnel. Since the staff is in the payroll of the terminal companies, the terminal companies should have issued labor force invoices to TAV Security and TAV Security should have issued security service invoices to terminal companies including the payroll cost invoiced by the terminal companies. As a result of the tax inspection, the withholding value added tax treatments of the Company in relation to the security and the labor services rendered have been criticised and based on the criticism, tax and tax penalty has been assessed and notified to the Company. As per the notification, outstanding value added taxes amounting to TRL 6,201, TRL 6,839, TRL 7,883, TRL 8,345, TRL 9,409 and tax penalties at the equivalent amounts have been assessed for the years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. Furthermore, outstanding corporate income taxes amounting to TRL 745, TRL 688, TRL 823, TRL 800, TRL 1,011 and tax penalties of TRL 1,326, TRL 1,242, TRL 1,496, TRL 1,423, TRL 2,358 have been assessed for the years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

In addition, Special Irregularity Penalty is assessed due to the fact that TAV Security has not issued security service invoices to the terminals including the payroll invoices. Special Irregularity Penalty amounting to TRL 365 have been assessed for the years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Following the negotiations with the Directorate of Revenue Administration, the authorities and TAV Security has concluded a settlement on 24 December 2014 where the VAT liability was reduced to TRL 0 (zero) and the Corporate Income Tax liability has been reconciled to TRL 348 as principle tax assessment and TRL 152 as interest penalty.

Georgian Tax Authority criticised the deduction of the VAT stemming from the construction of Batumi Airport Terminal which was undertaken by TAV Tbilisi in return for the extension of the operation period of Tbilisi Airport. The inspectors claimed that this transaction was a barter transaction and hence, TAV Tbilisi should have transferred the Batumi Airport Terminal to the competent authority by calculating VAT. As a result, VAT amounting to GEL 9,798 (EUR 4,325) has been assessed and it has been charged together with GEL 8,263 (EUR 3,647) of penalty (GEL 18,061 (EUR 7,972) in total). The management, lawyers and the tax advisors do not agree with the claim of the Georgian Tax Authority. Therefore, TAV Tbilisi has proceeded the appeal process and management believe that the appeal process will be concluded in the TAV Tbilisi’s favor. Accordingly, no provision is recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
