Overview of 100 % State guarantees for the collateralisation of loans of FD 1987-2000
Čeprav za upravljanje letališča ni bil objavljen razpis, je Nemčija menila, da je družba FD v povprečju dobro upravljano podjetje.
Source: German submission dated 23 April 2012.
Nemčija je nadalje navedla, da so izgube letališča vključevale stroške, povezane z naložbami, o katerih je bilo odločeno pred sodbo Aéroports de Paris iz leta 2000, in stroške s področja javne politike.
Measures of infrastructure
V zvezi s tem je večkrat predložila različne sezname dejavnosti, za katere se je štelo, da spadajo na področje javne politike.
Amount of loan (EUR)
Pregled iz zadnjega dopisa je povzet v preglednicah 4 in 5.
Year of granting
Po mnenju Nemčije, ki se je sklicevala na sodbo Leipzig proti Halle, ti ukrepi ne spadajo na področje nadzora državnih pomoči.
Loan guarantee
Meni, da bi imela družba FD pozitivni EBITDA (dobiček pred obrestmi, davki in amortizacijo), če bi bili ti stroški izključeni iz stroškovne osnove.
A. Old infrastructure projects in 1987-1992
Nemčija je poudarila, da se ukrep nikakor ne sme šteti kot pomoč za tekoče poslovanje, temveč jo je treba šteti kot pomoč za naložbe, ki se lahko šteje za združljivo s Pogodbo v skladu s členom 107(3)(b) in (c) Pogodbe.
Extension of the runway A, diversion of high voltage power line
Vendar je priznala, da bi morala projekte skupnega evropskega interesa v smislu člena 107(3)(b) Pogodbe izvajati več kot ena država članica.
City of Dortmund
Kljub temu je trdila, da je splošno strukturno preoblikovanje, del katerega je bila izgradnja letališke infrastrukture, v skupnem interesu Unije in zato združljivo z notranjim trgom.
Other measures
UKREP 3: PROGRAM NERES
B. Historical investments in 1993-2003
Nemčija je trdila, da se ukrepi programa NERES ne morejo šteti za državno pomoč v smislu člena 107(1) Pogodbe.
Extension of soundproof booth, sanitary sewer East, movement area East, canalisation
Po njenem mnenju je NERES program, ki je podpiral širitev letališča Dortmund in za katerega je lahko zaprosil vsak letalski prevoznik, zato ni bil diskriminacijski.
Property […]
Trdila je, da se je program NERES uporabljal za vsaj tri letalske prevoznike, zato se ne more šteti za dejansko diskriminacijo v korist letalskega prevoznika EasyJet.
Reconstruction terminal A, cargo centre
Nemčija je trdila, da se program NERES ne more pripisati državi, ker je uprava družbe FD program uvedla na lastno pobudo in odgovornost.
Connection north-street, re-allocation gas pipe and water line
Nemčija je potrdila, da v razvoj programa NERES niso bili vključeni niti nadzorni svet družbe FD, niti delničarji družbe DSW21, niti mesto Dortmund.
Mechanisation movement area
Nemčija je predstavila alternativne scenarije s programom NERES in brez njega ter ugotovila, da bi se udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu obnašal enako.
Tower, terminal, movement area and other infrastructure measures
V skladu s temi scenariji se je pričakovalo, da bodo s programom NERES dobički višji, kot če se program ne bi uvedel, ker je bil njegov cilj povečanje števila potnikov.
Extension runway, rearrangement General Aviation, etc.
S programom NERES se je pričakovalo, da bo letališče od leta 2008 donosno.
Germany stated that these guarantees were irrevocably granted between 1987 and 2000, so before it was clarified that airports are subject to State aid rules.
Nemčija je Komisijo spomnila, da bi zaprtje letališča povzročilo tudi stroške, in poudarila, da se v členu 45 uredbe o izdajanju dovoljenj za letalske prevoze (Luftverkehrs-Zulassungs-Ordnung, „LuftVZO“) zahtevata ustrezno upravljanje in vzdrževanje letališča namesto njegovega zaprtja.
Germany moreover emphasised that these guarantees were neither extended nor otherwise changed.
Zato je bilo treba uvesti program NERES, da bi se zopet povečala število potnikov in izkoriščenost infrastrukture.
Moreover, Germany argued that the airport operator paid a market based charge for these guarantees.
Nemčija je trdila, da je lahko družba FD zaradi programa NERES v nasprotju z drugimi letališči v tistem času ohranila število potnikov.
Germany argued on the interpretation and applicability of Article 107(1) of the Treaty to the 1991 PLTA that this agreement had been irrevocably concluded before the judgment of the General Court in Aéroports de Paris [21].
Nadalje je Nemčija navedla, da se je v tistem času povpraševanje po vsej Evropi osredotočilo na nizkocenovne prevoznike.
Germany affirmed that the 1991 PLTA had already been irrevocably concluded in 1991 and entered into effect on 1 January 1992, and that the coverage of annual losses by DSW21 was based entirely on that agreement.
Trdila je, da je letalski prevoznik Air Berlin, ki je bila glavna stranka letališča Dortmund, vse bolj preusmerjal svoje lete na druga letališča, zato je bila družba FD prisiljena uvesti spodbude, kot je program NERES.
Germany is thus of the opinion that the rules of State aid should therefore not be applied to the agreement.
Vendar je pojasnila, da program NERES ni bil usmerjen le na nizkocenovne letalske prevoznike, temveč se je zanimal tudi za vzpostavitev poslovnih letalskih prevoznikov na letališču Dortmund, vendar se Lufthansa ni pozitivno odzvala na prošnjo družbe FD.
Germany took the view that the 2005 Aviation Guidelines could not be applied in this case since the 1991 PLTA was signed as part of the infrastructure measures implemented in the early 1990s, before the Guidelines were adopted and published.
Nemčija je navedla, da družba FD s programom NERES ni prevzela tveganj, temveč je oblikovala strategijo za ponovno doseganje donosnosti.
Furthermore, Germany stated that the 1991 PLTA was necessary for to the extension of the airport.
Trdila je, da bi enako ravnal tudi udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu, zlasti ker bi lahko letališče EasyJet osvojilo že z uvedbo spodbud NERES.
Accordingly, Germany clarified that the city council of Dortmund agreed on the agreement as an alternative to a direct grant for financing the airport extension.
Nemčija je predložila poslovni načrt, ki se je uporabil za uvedbo programa NERES.
Germany submitted, that the new infrastructure would be accessible for every potential user without discrimination in any way.
V poslovnem načrtu so bili primerjani najugodnejši, osnovni in najslabši scenarij za družbo FD z uvedbo programa NERES in brez njegove uvedbe.
Germany provided studies presenting the possibilities and perspectives of the development of the former airfield Dortmund-Wickede [22].
To pričakovanje je temeljilo na vseevropskih in svetovnih napovedih „Luftverkehrsinitiative“.
The result was that a development of the airfield to an airport would have led to an increase of up to 196000 passengers in 1991, up to 664000-731000 passengers in 2001 and even up to 1,1 million in 2010.
V poslovnem načrtu se je za vsak scenarij pričakovalo, da bo lahko družba FD za 5 % povečala prihodke, ki niso povezani z letalskimi dejavnostmi.
Germany claimed that before the extension, the airport's capacity was only at around 750000 passengers and therefore the extension was necessary.
Ta pričakovanja so temeljila na razvoju med letoma 1999 in 2003, ko se je število potnikov povprečno povečalo za 14,39 % in so se hkrati prihodki od parkiranja povprečno povečali za 27,64 %, ker so se parkirnine povprečno povišale za 13,25 % na leto.
In this regard, Germany confirmed that the forecasts of the surveys had been correct.
Scenariji so temeljili tudi na predpostavki, da bo lahko družba FD nekaj prihranila z najemanjem zunanjih zaposlenih.
In the year 2000 already 719365 passengers used Dortmund airport and the predicted numbers for 2010 were reached already in 2001 with 1064153 passengers.
Pri vseh scenarijih se je ob upoštevanju spodbud pričakovalo, da bo lahko letališče Dortmund zaradi povečanja števila potnikov povišalo parkirnine za dodatnih 10 %.
Germany stated that the 1991 PLTA was neither extended nor otherwise changed, nor has it been terminated and it was also not limited in time.
Nemčija je poudarila, da bi bil tudi po najslabšem scenariju rezultat družbe FD z uvedbo spodbud boljši kot brez uvedbe spodbud.
Germany pointed out that both the 1999 addendum and the 2008 amendment were concluded purely to comply with the requirements of German tax legislation and did not affect the principle of indefinite coverage of annual losses.
Trdila je, da se je pričakovalo tudi, da bo sčasoma na letališču Dortmund toliko letalskih prevoznikov, da bo povečanje števila potnikov celo preseglo napovedi in pričakovanja.
Consequently, according to Germany the 2008 modification of the 1991 PLTA between FD and DSW21 was not a new measure, but still concerned the same agreement, investigated in the 2007 opening decision.
Navedla je, da bo z uvedbo spodbud NERES letališče donosnejše zaradi povečanja števila potnikov in večje izkoriščenosti.
Moreover, Germany is of the opinion that the MEO principle can be applied only in the context of the situation at that time.
Nemčija je podrobno predstavila vse scenarije.
Furthermore, Germany argued that since at that time the operation and construction of airports was not considered to be an economic activity, airports were not considered to be undertakings falling within the scope of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Brez uvedbe spodbud bi letališče Dortmund po najugodnejšem scenariju izkoristilo 60 % svojih zmogljivosti, kar je pomenilo 1,7 milijona potnikov.
Germany clarified furthermore that certain operating and capital costs (depreciation and costs of financing) were falling within the public policy remit and would be outside the scope of State aid rules.
Po najslabšem scenariju bi izkoristilo 44 % svojih zmogljivosti.
In Germany's view these were costs such as police, customs, and air traffic control.
Celo po najugodnejšem scenariju bi družba FD še naprej ustvarjala izgube iz poslovanja, v naslednjih letih pa okrevanja ne bi bilo mogoče pričakovati.
Germany pointed out that the 1991 PLTA met the requirements of the Altmark [23] judgment from 24 July 2003.
Po najslabšem scenariju bi se izgube iz poslovanja najprej povečale, nato pa do leta 2014 nekoliko zmanjšale, vendar bi bile še vedno znatno višje kot leta 2003.
In its submission, Germany stated that FD was officially entrusted by the city council of Dortmund to further develop the infrastructure at Dortmund airport, and that, it was not overcompensated.
Nemčija je navedla, da je bila uvedba programa NERES najdonosnejša možnost za družbo FD, celo v primerjavi z zaprtjem letališča Dortmund.
Although the operation of the airport was not tendered out, according to Germany FD was on average a well-managed undertaking.
V zvezi je v preglednici 14 povzeta dodatna donosnost zaradi programa NERES.
Germany stated furthermore that losses of the airport included costs related to investments, which were decided prior to the 2000 Aéroports de Paris judgment and costs of public policy remit.
Prikazane so pričakovane razlike glede števila potnikov, stroškov, prihodkov in rezultatov družbe FD v primerjavi z alternativnimi scenariji.
In this context, Germany provided at several occasions different lists of activities that were regarded as falling within the public policy remit.
Ti rezultati temeljijo prav na uvedbi programa NERES.
The overview from the most recent submission is summarised in Table 4 and Table 5.
Preglednica 14
In Germany's point of view, referring to the judgment Leipzig/Halle, these measures are outside of the scope of State aid control.
Dodatni stroški programa NERES v primerjavi s shemo pristojbin iz leta 2000
According to Germany, if these costs were taken out of the cost-base, FD would have a positive EBITDA.
Napovedi
In any case, Germany pointed out that the measure must not be considered as operating aid, rather but as investment aid, which can be deemed compatible with the Treaty according to Article 107(3)(b) and (c) of the Treaty.
Potniki
However, Germany acknowledged that projects of common European interest within the meaning Article 107(3)(b) of the Treaty should be implemented by more than one Member State.
Prihodki
Nevertheless, Germany argued that the overall structural transformation, of which the airport infrastructure construction was part, was in the common interest of the Union, and was therefore compatible with the internal market.
Pristojbine za pristajanje
MEASURE 3: NERES
Zagotavljanje storitev
Germany argued that the measures of the NERES programme could not be considered as State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Prihodki od infrastrukture
Germany regarded NERES as a programme supporting the extension of Dortmund airport, for which every airline could apply, and therefore, it was not discriminatory.
Rezervacije
In any case, according to Germany, NERES was applied to at least three airlines and for that reason could not be considered as a de facto discrimination in favour of EasyJet.
Najemanje
Also, Germany emphasised that the programme was limited in time and applied only to airlines setting up or expanding their operation at Dortmund airport within this period.
Parkiranje
In Germany's opinion the measures of NERES were not selective because they did not give an advantage only to certain airlines.
Prerazporeditve
According to Germany, NERES is not imputable to the state because the management of FD established the programme of its own motion and responsibility.
drugi
Germany affirmed that neither the supervisory board of FD, nor the shareholders of DSW21, nor the city of Dortmund were involved in developing NERES.
Skupaj prihodki iz poslovanja
Germany presented alternative scenarios with and without NERES and came to the conclusion that a MEO would have behaved in the same manner.
Drugi prihodki
According to these scenarios, the profits with the NERES scheme were expected to be higher than without introducing it since it aimed at an increase of passengers.
Obresti in dividende
With the NERES scheme the airport was expected to become profitable as from 2008.
prihodki
Germany reminded the Commission that a closure of the airport would also have caused costs and pointed out that § 45 of Air Traffic Licensing Regulation (Luftverkehrs-Zulassungs-Ordnung, ‘LuftVZO’) requests a proper operation and maintenance of an airport rather than a closure.
Stroški
Following the attacks on 11 September 2001, the number of passengers decreased and the market conditions changed according to Germany.
Plače
Therefore, NERES needed to be introduced in order to increase the passenger numbers and utilisation of the infrastructure again.
Amortizacija
Furthermore, according to Germany, the Europe-wide demand at the time concentrated on low-cost carriers.
Stroški poslovanja
Germany argued that since Dortmund airport's main client, Air Berlin, increasingly relocated its flights to other airports, FD was forced to introduce incentives, such as NERES.
Drugo
However, Germany explained that NERES did not only target low-cost airlines; FD was also interested in establishing business airlines at Dortmund airport, but Lufthansa did not respond positively to a request of FD.
za trženje
Germany stated that with NERES, FD did not take risks, but rather created a strategy to return to profitability.
Skupaj stroški
A MEO would also have behaved in that way, Germany argued, especially because the airport could already win EasyJet with the introduction of NERES incentives.
Skupni prispevek
Germany provided the business plan that was used for the introduction of NERES.
Prispevek k EBITDA
The business plan compared the best-case scenario, the base-case scenario and the worst-case scenario of FD with and without the introduction of NERES.
Nemčija je navedla, da je bil splošni cilj ukrepov ustvariti najvišje možne srednjeročne do dolgoročne dobičke in da bi se kratkoročne izgube izravnale z dobički v prihodnosti, saj se je pričakovalo, da se bo zaradi uvedbe programa NERES od leta 2015 dosegal pozitivni EBITDA (razen stroškov, ki spadajo na področje javne politike).
Every scenario expected an annual passenger growth of 4-7 %.
Nemčija je predložila tudi napovedi na podlagi izračunov skupnih stroškov in skupnih prihodkov, kot so povzete v preglednici 15.
This expectation was based on Europe-wide and global forecasts of the ‘Luftverkehrsinitiative’.
Preglednica 15
These expectation were based on the development during the years 1999 to 2003, when the amount of passengers increased on average by 14,39 % and at the same time the parking revenues increased on average by 27,64 % due to an average annual increase in parking charges by 13,25 %.
Potniki (v milijonih)
Furthermore, the scenarios relied on the assumption that FD would be able to save costs by outsourcing employees.
Prihodki (v tisoč EUR)
All of the scenarios expected that, taking into consideration the incentives, Dortmund airport would be able to increase the parking charges by another 10 %, due to the increase of passengers.
Stroški (v tisoč EUR)
In the best-case scenario, the airport would be expected to become fully profitable by 2015.
Dobiček/izguba (v tisoč EUR)
The worst-case scenario predicted that this increase would only be possible for the remaining time during which EasyJet stayed.
EBITDA (v tisoč EUR)
Germany pointed out that even in the worst-case scenario with the introduction of the incentives, the result of FD would be better than without incentives.
Nemčija je sklenila, da je glede na primerjavo zaprtja letališča z zgoraj navedenimi scenariji boljša možnost nadaljevanje dejavnosti družbe FD [24].
According to Germany, it was also expected that eventually so many airlines would settle at Dortmund airport that the passenger increase would even exceed the forecasts and expectations.
Nemčija je izjavila, da se je z uvedbo programa NERES število destinacij, dosegljivih z letališča Dortmund, povečalo s 37 pred programom NERES na 53 destinacij po njegovi uvedbi.
Germany stated that by introducing the NERES incentives, the airport would be more profitable due to an increase in passenger numbers and the higher utilisation.
Iz dopisov je jasno, da so se dobički iz parkirnin dejansko povečali v skladu s pričakovanji.
Germany presented all scenarios in detail.
Stroški zaposlenih so bili višji od pričakovanj, kar je bilo po mnenju Nemčije posledica začetne prilagoditve.
Without the introduction of incentives, Dortmund airport would use 60 % of its capacity in the best-case scenario, which meant 1,7 million passengers.
Na podlagi predložitev so skupni rezultati letališča v letu 2004 znašali –20995000 EUR, v letu 2005 pa –24111000 EUR.
In the worst case it would use 44 % of its capacity.
Ti rezultati so bili boljši od najboljšega pričakovanega scenarija brez uvedbe spodbud NERES, vendar nekoliko nižji od osnovnega scenarija z uvedbo spodbud NERES.
Even in the best-case scenario, FD would continue to make operating losses and a recovery could not be expected in the coming years.
Nemčija je navedla, da bi bil program NERES združljiv s Pogodbo na podlagi člena 107(3)(c) Pogodbe, če bi ga Komisija obravnavala kot državno pomoč, ker je bil v skupnem interesu.
In the worst-case scenario, the operating losses would first increase and then slightly decrease towards 2014, but they would still be significantly higher than in 2003.
Sklicevala se je na sklep Komisije v zadevi Charleroi in trdila, da bi lahko državna pomoč za regionalna letališča prispevala k njihovemu razvoju in tako pomagala zmanjšati preobremenjenost mednarodnih letališč.
Germany stated that the introduction of NERES was the most profitable option for FD, even compared to the closure of Dortmund airport.
Menila je, da je program NERES zaradi uvedbe večjega števila prog z letališča Dortmund omogočil tudi razvoj nekaterih gospodarskih dejavnosti, s čimer sta se okrepili konkurenca in trgovina po Evropi.
In particular, it was more profitable than the alternative of applying the original scheme of airport charges introduced on 1 November 2000.
Nemčija je poudarila še, da so dejavnosti zemeljske oskrbe vedno pokrivale svoje stroške.
Germany further clarified that the assessment carried out showed that with NERES FD would be able to maximise the number of passengers, its aviation and non-aviation revenues, and its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (‘EBITDA’).
Izpostavila je nujnost programa in poudarila, da je zaradi uvedbe spodbud na letališču Dortmund več nizkocenovnih letalskih prevoznikov.
In this regard, Table 14 summarises the incremental profitability results of NERES.
Število potnikov se je od leta 2004 do leta 2006 skoraj podvojilo, in sicer z 1,15 milijona na 2,02 milijona.
It shows the expected differences in terms of number of passengers, costs, revenues and results of FD as compared to alternative scenarios.
Nemčija je še navedla, da se je število premikov zrakoplovov povečalo za 30 %, število rednih letov pa se je povečalo za 36 %.
These results are specifically due to the introduction of NERES.
UKREP 4: PROGRAM NEO
Table 14
Nemčija je v zvezi s programom NEO trdila, da je družba FD ravnala kot udeleženec v tržnem gospodarstvu, ko se je odločila za uvedbo tega programa.
Incremental costs of NERES as compared to the 2000 scheme of charges
Ponovila je, da je bila celo v primerjavi z zaprtjem letališča uvedba programa NEO najdonosnejša možnost za prihodnost.

Contribution to EBITDA
Odhodki (v tisoč EUR)
Germany stated that the overall aim of the measures was to generate the highest possible medium to long-term profits and that short-term losses would be balanced by the profits in the future as the introduction of NERES was expected to lead to a positive EBITDA (excluding costs falling within public policy remit) as from 2015 onwards.
Dobiček/izguba (v tisoč EUR)
Germany also provided forecasts based on the total cost and total revenue calculations, as summarised in Table 15.

Preglednica 19
Germany furthermore argued that after the introduction of NERES, positive effects could be seen already in the second half of 2004.
Napovedani prilagojeni dobiček ali izguba po scenariju z uvedbo programa NEO
In 2005, losses of Dortmund airport had been already reduced by 8,5 % compared to 2004.
Prilagojeno za pristojbine za približanje letališču, ki jih zaračunava družba FD za (delno) kritje stroškov javne storitve kontrole zračnega prometa.
Germany provided an updated business plan for FD which expected a positive development for the upcoming years and a return to profitability in terms of EBITDA level by 2011.
Ta naloga, ki jo je običajno neposredno opravljal DFS, je bila prenesena na družbo FD, in ta jo je neposredno zaračunavala.
When considering a closure of the airport, according to Germany, the following had to be taken into account: the accelerated depreciation for assets (EUR 187 million), demolitions (8,5 million), and indemnities due to personnel reductions (EUR 14 million).
Dobiček/izguba (v tisoč EUR)
The sale of the property, buildings and equipment would yield at most EUR 38,75 million.
EBITDA (v tisoč EUR)
A closure would have also required a surveillance of the buildings (EUR 450000 per year) and the takeover of the employees with a life-term contract (EUR 1,3 million).
