Editor’s note: Adds information in the third paragraph of the fundamentals dated originally on March 6, 2013.

 

Fundamentals

 

Standard & Poor’s assigned today its long-term national scale-CaVal-grade of “mxAA+” to the stock exchange certificate issuance proposal of Grupo Aeroportuario del Centro Norte, S.A.B. de C.V. (OMA) for $1,500 million pesos (MXN) in the local market. In addition, we assigned our short-term credit risk grade in a national scale of “mxA-1+” to OMA and a debt grade of “mxA-1+” for the short-term stock exchange certificates proposed program for an amount up to $200 million pesos on a revolving basis.

 

 

Furthermore, Standard & Poor’s confirmed OMA’s long-term credit risk grade to “mxAA+”. Perspective is table. As well, confirmed the grade “mxAA+”of the long-term stock exchange certificate issuance (OMA 11) for $1,300 million pesos (MXN).

 

The resources of the long-term proposed issuance shall be used to refinance the short-term and current liabilities, as well as to finance the capital investments committed to the Development Master Program (DMP) and OMA’s strategic investments. The resources of the short-term proposed program shall be used in the working capital and corporate matters in general. The grade assigned to the proposed issuances indicates that the issuer’s payment capacity to comply with its financial commitments and obligations is very strong with regard to other issuers in the national market.

 

The credit and debt risk grade of OMA reflect a business profile considered “satisfactory”, and the evaluation of its profile “intermediate”. Our evaluations are based on OMA’s competitive advantage derived from the operation of its 13 airports in Mexico, the strategic position of the airport in Monterrey as the fourth airport with more passenger traffic in the country, a moderate financial policy, and our expectation that the company will maintain a solid generation of cash flow under a moderate level of leverage.

 

These factors are partially unopposed by OMA’s high concentration of revenues in its aeronautical services, that historically are above 70% of the total income, as well as the International Airport of Monterrey, which represented 48% of the total passenger traffic and 45.5% of its consolidated income during 2012, and by the important investment plans that the company is committed to perform according to the Development Master Program (DMP 2011-2015).

 

OMA’s grades are above of its majority shareholder Empresas ICA, S.A.B. de C.V. (ICA, mxBBB+/Stable/--), due that Aeroports de Paris Management (ADPM; non-graded), an affiliate of Aeroports de Paris (ADP; A+/Negative/--), has the right to approve or reject relevant decisions through its participation in the board of directors of Servicios de Tecnologia Aeroportuaria, S.A. de C.V. (SETA), such as the authorization, amount and payment of dividends. SETA is the owner of the 100% of the controlling shares of OMA. Five board

 



 

members appointed by ICA comprise the Board of Directors of SETA and two appointed by ADPM. In order to approve a relevant resolution by the Board of Directors, six of the seven votes are required. In our opinion, this structure limits the financial impact on OMA that could be generated as a result of a potential deterioration in the financial profile of ICA.

 

During 2012, the total number of passengers transported by OMA was 12.6 million, an increase of 6.8% compared with 2011; there was a greater recovery in the number of national passengers with an increase of 7.8%. In our opinion, the international passenger traffic continues to be affected by the insecurity issues in Mexico; it showed a slightly recovery during the second semester of 2012 with an increase of 2.3% compared with 2011. We expect that the total passenger traffic will increase approximately 4.3% for 2013 and an average growth of greater than 5% during the following two years. Such expectation is evidenced with the traffic recovery to touristic destinations, as well as in the growth plans of airlines through the acquisition of new aircrafts, new routes and frequencies.

 

The total income (without considering the construction revenues) was $2,820 million pesos (MXN) in 2012, which represented an increase of 14.7% compared to the previous year. Such increase was due to a 17% growth in the non-aeronautical revenues, which mirrors the income diversification strategy and the optimization of commercial spaces implemented by OMA during the last years, as well as by the new security service operation for documented luggage. In the other hand, aeronautical revenues grew 13.9% for the same period as a result of an increase in passenger volume. Based on the above, the adjusted EBITDA margin was 53.6%, which compares favorably with the 50.9% presented in the previous year.

 

For 2013, we expect that OMA’s aeronautical revenues will continue to benefit from the traffic recovery and the increase in the maximum rate associated with the maintenance of the security equipment used to check documented luggage, and we expect that such service may have an increase in revenues of 9% approximately. In the other hand, we envisage that the non-aeronautical revenues will still be supported mainly by those received from the operation of the Hotel NH inside Terminal 2 of the International Airport in Mexico City (AICM) and the commercial services, which we expect that they can grow more than 10% during 2013. Therefore, we expect that OMA report an increase in the total income for 2013, without including construction revenues, close to 10% with an EBITDA margin of 52% approximately.

 

OMA’s historical financial performance has been solid as a result of a moderate financial policy that seeks a positive generation of operative cash flow, maintaining low leverage levels. During 2012, the total debt index to EBITDA, the interest coverage with EBITDA and the Funds From Operations (FFO) to the total debt was 1.4 times (x), 14.6x and 68.5% respectively. Nevertheless, as a result of the diversification strategy of non-aeronautical revenues and new businesses, we expect that OMA will increase its debt during the following three years to finance its investment plans. We expect that OMA will maintain its investment expenditure up to MXN800 million pesos for the following two years and MXN350 for 2015.

 

In our baseline scenario, we expect that OMA will report a total debt index to EBITDA, interest coverage with EBITDA and FFO to debt of 2.0x, 10.6x and 44.2%, respectively during 2013, and 2.3x, 8.1x and 35.4% for the closing of 2014. In spite of the increase in its leverage levels, we consider that OMA will continue to show a solid financial profile with moderate debt levels and can be compared favorably with other companies in the same grade category. Nevertheless, in our opinion, the sensitivity of the company before passenger traffic and the generation of EBITDA have increased compared to the previous years.

 

OMA operates and manages 13 airports in the north-central region of Mexico through a 50-years concessions granted by the Mexican government. The airports provide services to the metropolitan area of Monterrey, three tourist destinations (Acapulco, Mazatlan and Zihuatanejo), two border cities (Ciudad Juarez and Reynosa), and seven regional centers (Chihuahua, Culiacan, Durango, San Luis Potosi, Tampico, Torreon and Zacatecas). All of them benefit from being the only option in their respective markets and are considered as international airports according to the Mexican legislation, meaning that are equipped to receive international flights, operate customs, refueling stations and immigration services operated by the Mexican government. As well, OMA manages the Hotel NH T2. OMA has two strategic partners, ICA and ADPM.

 

Liquidity

 

We consider that OMA’s liquidity is adequate. In December 31, 2012, the company reported a cash account of MXN1,152 million pesos and a short-term debt of MXN583 million pesos, including the balance from the revolving credit lines contracted. Additionally, we expect OMA will have a free cash flow in operations (after the investment expenditure) for an amount approximately of MXN272 million pesos in 2013, which coupled to the cash account and new issuances, shall be enough to cover its financial commitments and dividend payments.

 

According to our criteria of liquidity, the expectancy and assumptions supporting our evaluation, include the following:

 

·     We expect the liquidity sources of the company will exceed in more than 1.2x in the next 12 to 18 months.

·     In our analysis, we expect that the liquidity sources shall be approximately MXN4,115 million pesos in 2013 and MXN4,530 million pesos in 2014, consisting in cash, FFO and additional debt. We anticipate that the use of the liquidity shall be approximately of MXN2,470 million pesos for 2013 and MXN1,972 million pesos for 2014, considering capital expenditure, debt maturity, working capital and dividend payments.

·     We consider that OMA has enough flexibility to decrease and/or defer its investment expenditure before an unfavorable environment in the airport industry.

·     OMA will maintain a manageable maturity profile because 95% of its debt will be of a long-term after the issuance of the stock exchange certificates.

 



 

·     Additionally, we consider that OMA has a broad margin to manage its financial restrictions (covenants), and in December 31, 2012 was in compliance with them.

 

OMA plans refinancing existing liabilities and finance investment expenditure with the issuance of stock exchange certificates for MXN1,500 million pesos maturing in 2023. Such issuance is guaranteed with nine of the thirteen airports operated by OMA. We expect that such guarantee becomes extensive to the issuance of stock exchange certificates OMA11, mitigating the structural subordination that exists under our criteria. Failure to do so could generate lowering the grade of such issuance.

 

Perspective

 

The stable perspective considers that despite an increase in the leverage level, OMA will continue to display a solid financial performance and a satisfactory business profile. The grades could be lowered if under an unfavorable economic environment, the generation of EBITDA is consistently reduced or if there is an increase in debt above our expectations, result in a level of leverage higher than 3.0x. There is a limited potential for an increase in the grade due to the high concentration of revenues, which we expect not to decrease in the medium-term.

REF: OMA 13 Grade

 

Hereby we allow ourselves to inform you that Fitch (see definition at the end of this document) assigned the following grade:

 

-                    AA+(mex) corresponding to the Second Issuance of Stock Exchange Certificates with the stock symbol “OMA 13” for an amount up to $1,500,000,000.00 (One billion five hundred million pesos 00/100 Mexican Currency) for a term up to 10 years of GRUPO AEROPORTUARIO DEL CENTRO NORTE, S.A.B. de C.V. (OMA), and to be performed under a Stock Exchange Certificate Program on a revolving basis, which was originally authorized by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission according to official letter No. 153/31098/2011 dated July 12, 2011 for an accumulated amount up to $3,000,000,000.00 (Three billion pesos 00/100 Mexican Currency) or its equivalent in investment units (UDIS).

 

The grade assigned by Fitch Mexico, S.A. de C.V. to this issuance, is defined as follows:

 

AA+(mex), which means: Very high creditworthiness. The national grades “AA” indicate an expectation of a low risk of default in comparison to other issuers or obligations in the same country. The risk of an inherent default only differs slightly compared to other high issuers or graded obligations in the country.

Annex I - Grade Fundamentals

 

The grade of Grupo Aeroportuario del Centro Norte, S.A.B. de C.V. (OMA) reflects a good market position having the concessions to operate, maintain and develop 13 airports in the north zone of Mexico, including the fourth most important airport of Mexico in terms of passengers (Airport of Monterrey). Additionally, incorporates an increase in the diversification of revenues, a stable operative development, good behavior in the aeronautical industry, an adequate financial profile, and the generation of an average negative free cash flow during the last years. It is expected that the use of resources coming from the placement of the long-term stock exchange certificates is intended to be used in capital investments committed to the Development Master Program (DMP) and in strategic investments, as well as to the payment of the short-term debt. The issuance of the long-term Stock Exchange Certificates will have the guarantee of the following airports: ACA, CJS, CUL, CUU, MZT, MTY, TAM, TRC, ZIH.

 

The grade reflects stability in the operative margins, 68% of total revenues are regulated, a net debt level to EBITDA of 1.0 times(x), as well as stability in the payment of dividends attached to its current policy that has allowed an annual payment of MXN500 million pesos. With the foregoing placement, Fitch considers that the company will simplify its capital structure and extend its maturity profile refinancing approximately 26% of the current debt and expects an total debt index to EBITDA in a range of 2.0x to 2.5x at the closing of 2013.

 

KEY FACTORS OF THE GRADE

 

Regulated Income provide Stability

 

Aeronautical revenues represented 68.8% of OMA’s total income in the closing of 2012, mainly as a result of the Airport Tax (TUA). The aeronautical revenues of the 13 airports are regulated by the applicable “maximum tariff” system, established by the Department of Communications and Transports (SCT), which is based in a five-year plan. This plan named Development Master Program (DMP), provides certainty to cash flow and to aeronautical investments, which are based on certain growth assumptions, demand and development of airports with a concession. Additionally, the DMP may be subject to modifications, which need authorization by the SCT in the event of an important variation in these assumptions.

 

Due to the air traffic pattern, OMA has a concentration of passengers, revenues and EBITDA in 5 of its 13 airports, which jointly represented 75.4% of the total passengers and 75.5% of its aeronautical and non-aeronautical revenues to the closing of 2012. The most important airport of the company is the International Airport of Monterrey, which contributed with 48% of total passengers and 47% of total aeronautical and non-aeronautical revenues in 2012. Due that three of its airports are located in tourist destinations, revenues are less affected by seasonality in comparison to other airport groups.

 

OMA is exposed to uncontrollable risk factors that affects it directly decreasing passenger traffic, and as a consequence, the operational generation due to the high percentage of fixed costs. Among the risk factors are, economic slowdown, natural disasters, closing of operations of airlines, volatility in fuel prices, terrorist attacks, competition from other tourist destinations, and security perceptions.

 

Growth in Non-Aeronautical Revenues

 

4/5



 

Fitch expects that non-aeronautical revenues approach 30% of the total income in the medium-term (excluding construction revenues), which contributed with 24% of the total income during 2012. This should allow the company to increase its diversification on revenues. The Hotel NH on Terminal 2 of the International Airport of Mexico City has a good performance in terms of occupation, revenues and EBITDA since the beginning of its operation in 2010. OMA continues to increase its non-aeronautical revenues with the development of stores, restaurants, commercial areas, and commercial and real estate developments owned by the company, located mainly around its aerodromes.

 

OMA’s grade regardless of its Shareholders

 

The grade considers that the capital structure of OMA will not be influenced by its controlling shareholders and sees its creditworthiness independently to theirs. To take certain type of decisions, OMA requires that its controlling shareholder Servicios de Tecnologia Aeroportuaria, S.A. de C.V. (SETA) achieves a super-majority vote, were at least one member of the board of the minority shareholders Aéroports de Paris Management (ADPM) votes in favor of the same decision as the controlling shareholder SETA. Empresas ICA, S.A.B. de C.V. (ICA) through Aeroinvest has the 74.5% of the shares of SETA.

 

Healthy Financial Profile, Negative Free Cash Flow by Investments

 

During 2012, OMA generated positive free cash flow of MXN577 million pesos. From 2008 to 2011, the company generated a negative free cash flow mainly due to a high level of investments made in the DMP and in the strategic investments that were financed partially with debt. During 2012, the terminal building capacity was increased, expansion and remodeling in Culiacan, expansion in Terminal C in Monterrey, acquisition of land in Monterrey, platform expansion and rehabilitation of pavement in Ciudad Juarez, solar power generation project in Zacatecas, among others.

 

OMA did not have debt and now has increased its historical leverage level. During the last 3 years, the total debt index to EBITDA has been increased to 1.6 times (x) from 1.2x; however, the net debt index to EBITDA has remained below 1.0x at this same time. Fitch expects that this net debt index to EBITDA will continue at this level in the medium-term.

 

SENSITIVITY OF THE GRADE:

 

Factors that may, individually or jointly, lead to negative actions to grades, which include a sustained deterioration in profitability and in the main financial indexes of the company, or a continuous increase in the leverage level. In the other hand, a consistent positive free cash flow generation and a sustained strengthening of the main financial and credit indexes of OMA, are favorable factors for its creditworthiness.
