INTERIM REPORT OF COPENHAGEN AIRPORTS A/S (CPH) FOR THE PERIOD
1 JANUARY – 31 MARCH 2026
The Board of Directors has today approved the interim report for the period 1 January – 31 March 2026.
HIGHLIGHTS
The total number of passengers at Copenhagen Airport was 7.0 million in the first three months of
2026, an increase of 0.9 million on the same period last year. The number of locally departing
passengers was 2.5 million (up 6% from last year), 3.5 million were arriving passengers (up 13% from
last year), and 1.0 million were departing transfer passengers (up 50% from last year).
Revenue amounted to DKK 1,200 million (Q1 2025: DKK 1,075 million), an increase of DKK 125 million
or 12% compared with the first three months of 2025 driven by the higher passenger numbers.
EBITDA amounted to DKK 456 million (Q1 2025: DKK 383 million), an increase of DKK 73 million
compared with the same period last year. The increase in EBITDA was mainly due to the higher
revenue partly offset by higher operating costs resulting from the higher activity level, including an
increase in full-time employees of 194.
EBIT was DKK 237 million (Q1 2025: DKK 161 million), an increase of DKK 76 million.
Net financing costs amounted to DKK 43 million, which was DKK 10 million lower than in the same
period of 2025, primarily due to increased capitalised interest on assets under construction.
Profit before tax amounted to DKK 196 million (Q1 2025: DKK 104 million), an increase of DKK 92
million.
Capital investments including capitalised interest were DKK 554 million in the first three months of
2026 (Q1 2025: DKK 350 million). Investments included the expansion of Terminal 3 and new security
facilities.

OUTLOOK FOR 2026
Outlook for the remainder of 2026 remains unchanged compared with our announcement in the 2025 Annual
Report. In 2026, CPH expects continued growth in passenger numbers, leading to increased profit. However,
the financial outlook is subject to uncertainty resulting from the geopolitical and macroeconomic environment.
A deterioration in these factors could negatively affect travel activity and thereby CPH’s financial performance.
Expectations for revenue growth
Based on a projected passenger volume, management expects total passenger numbers to be approximately
35.5 million for full-year 2026. Correspondingly, revenue is expected to grow by around 7%.
Expectations for profit before tax
With expected passenger numbers of around 35.5 million, profit before tax for full-year 2026 is expected to be
between DKK 1.75 and DKK 1.90 billion.
Expectations for capital investments
Capital investments for 2026 are expected to amount to around DKK 3.0 billion, including capitalised interest.
The Terminal 3 extension and stand capacity are expected to account for close to half of the investment level
for 2026, with the remainder relating to capacity enhancements and safety, security and compliance projects.

MANAGEMENT’S FINANCIAL REVIEW
PERFORMANCE – Q1 2026
Passenger numbers for the first three months of
2026 reached a total of 7.0 million, which was an
increase of 0.9 million on the same period of 2025.
Revenue amounted to DKK 1,200 million, a 12%
increase compared with the same period of 2025.
Aeronautical revenue amounted to DKK 718
million, an increase of DKK 86 million or 14%
compared with the first three months of 2025. This
was mainly due to the increasing passenger
numbers.
Non-aeronautical revenue increased by DKK 39
million to DKK 482 million, a 9% improvement on
the same period of 2025 driven by the increasing
passenger numbers.
Operating costs including depreciation and
amortisation amounted to DKK 963 million, an
increase of DKK 47 million compared with the
same period last year mainly due to higher activity
levels. External costs were up by DKK 28 million
compared with the same period last year. Staff
costs increased by DKK 23 million, primarily due to
an increase in full-time employees of 194.
Depreciation and amortisation was down by DKK 4
million, mainly due to lower write-offs of assets in
2026 compared with the same period of 2025.
EBITDA was a profit of DKK 456 million, an
increase of DKK 73 million compared with the first
three months of 2025.
Net financing costs amounted to DKK 43 million, a
reduction of DKK 10 million, which was primarily
due to increased capitalised interest on assets
under construction.
Profit before tax amounted to DKK 196 million, an
improvement of DKK 92 million compared with the
first three months of 2025.

OTHER ITEMS IN THE INCOME
STATEMENT
Net financing costs
Net financing costs were DKK 10 million lower than
in the same period of 2025.
The development was mainly attributable to
increased capitalised interest on assets under
construction.
Tax on profit for the period
Tax on profit for the period is recognised based on
a current estimate of actual taxes for the period.
CASH FLOW STATEMENT
Cash flow from operating activities decreased by
DKK 61 million relative to the same period last
year, primarily due to tax payments in 2026, partly
offset by higher cash inflows from the increased
revenue driven by higher passenger numbers.
Cash flow from investing activities primarily related
to investments in property, plant and equipment
and intangible assets.
Major investments made during the first three
months of 2026 included the expansion of Terminal
3 and new security facilities.
Cash flow from financing activities related to net
drawings on credit facilities and amortisation of
loans increased by DKK 206 million compared with
the same period last year.
At 31 March 2026, CPH had cash and cash
equivalents of DKK 78 million (31 March 2025:
DKK 72 million).

AERONAUTICAL BUSINESS AREA
Passengers (pax)
A total of 7.0 million passengers passed through
Copenhagen Airport during the first three months of
2026, equivalent to an increase of 0.9 million
passengers, or 14%, compared with the same period
of 2025. European destinations accounted for most
of the increase with 0.7 million passengers or 15%
compared with 2025. Danish destinations
contributed an additional 0.1 million passengers,
while the remaining increase stemmed from
intercontinental routes. The increase in passenger
numbers was partly due to the timing of Easter,
which last year fell in April, whereas a significant
share of Easter-related travel occurred in March this
year.
The total number of departing passengers was 3.5
million (up 15% compared with the same period last
year), of which 2.5 million were locally departing
passengers (6% up on last year), and 1.0 million
were departing transfer and transit passengers (50%
up on the same period last year).
Locally departing passengers accounted for 72% of
all departing passengers, while transfer and transit
passengers accounted for 28%. The total number of
arriving passengers was 3.5 million (13% up on last
year).
In the first three months of 2026, total departing seat
capacity increased by 11%, the number of
passenger-related operations increased by 14%,
and the average cabin factor (occupancy) increased
by 4% to 75% compared with the same period in
2025.
Revenue
Aeronautical revenue amounted to DKK 718 million
in the first three months of 2026, an increase of DKK
86 million (14% up on the same period last year).
The increase in aeronautical revenue is mainly
driven by higher passenger numbers and
passenger-related operations. The increase in
charges for 2026 will be effective from 1 April 2026.
Passenger, security, and handling charges
increased by DKK 70 million on the same period of
last year to DKK 577 million, primarily driven by the
increase in passenger numbers and the indexation
of charges from 1 April 2025. There was a change in
passenger mix, with more transfer passengers and a
slightly reduced share of passengers traveling from
the low-cost pier, CPH Go, compared with the same
period last year.
Take-off charges amounted to DKK 124 million, an
increase of 11% compared with the same period last
year, primarily driven by a higher number of flight
operations. Passenger-related operations increased
by 14%, while cargo operations decreased by 27%.
EBIT
Aeronautical EBIT for the first three months of 2026
amounted to a loss of DKK 26 million, an
improvement of DKK 51 million compared with the
same period of 2025. The positive impact of higher
revenue and lower depreciation and amortisation
was partly offset by higher staff costs and external
costs.

Revenue
Concession revenue
Concession revenue from the shopping centre
amounted to DKK 196 million for the first quarter of
2026, an increase of DKK 22 million compared with
the same period last year. The improvement was
primarily driven by the increase in passenger
numbers.
Other revenue amounted to DKK 9 million, which
was in line with the same period last year.
Parking revenue
Parking revenue for the first three months of 2026
was up by DKK 5 million compared with last year.

these activities are carried by CPH and re-invoiced
to customers.
EBIT
Non-aeronautical EBIT increased by DKK 25
million to DKK 263 million compared with the same

The interim report is presented in accordance with international accounting standard IAS 34 Interim Financial

The estimates made by CPH in determining the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are based on
judgements and estimates that are subject to future events. These include estimates of the useful lives of
