Landing weights totaled 1 billion pounds in January 2024 representing a decrease of 7.1% compared to January 2023. Cargo volume totaled 11,579 tons in January 2024 representing a decrease of 2.5% compared to January 2023. The decline in cargo volume YTD compared to the prior year is the result of declines in mail cargo and tonnage carried from major cargo carriers. January 2024 operating revenue totals $23.6M, an increase of 14.5% or $3.0M compared to January 2023. The increase in operating revenue primarily results from updated airline rates for FY24 and changes to the parking rate structure from prior year.

Airport operating expenses totaled $11.9M for the month, an increase of 31.9% or $2.9M compared to January 2023. The increase in operating expenses results from higher personnel costs from increased headcount and wage adjustments, and contractual costs including parking services, consulting contracts, and baggage handling system maintenance. AUS reported a $4.9M surplus in January 2024 compared to a surplus of $5.7M (before federal relief funding) in January 2023. 10Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results FY2024 Year to Date (YTD) Operating Revenue totals $103.1M compared to $88.5M in FY2023, a 16.5% increase.

As presented in Table #2, FY2024 revenues exceed budgeted revenues by 9.7% or $9.2M. Airport operating expenses are 5.6% or $2.6M above seasonalized budgeted expenses due to higher personnel costs from faster than anticipated filling of vacant positions, increased overtime worked during periods of high passenger traffic, and increased parking operations cost. Before federal relief, AUS reports net income of $28.0M, which exceeds the seasonalized budget estimate by 30.7% or $6.6M.

The additional space will allow for general circulation space. The project also includes fire/life safety systems, mechanical, electrical and plumbing work, and enhancement of structural capacity to allow for floor construction on the apron level. • Midfield Taxiway $14,250,000 : The dual parallel Midfield Taxiways need to be demolished and rebuilt in a new location to make way for a new 20 - 40 gate concourse. This is an enabling project for the new concourse. This project will design and construct two parallel Midfield Taxiways with connectors and access to the maintenance ramp. It includes bridges for vehicle access to the midfield and FAA Tower, utility relocation, drainage improvements, demolition of existing pavements and infrastructure, new fencing, modifications to service roads, and provides connectivity between the east and west side of the airfield. 2 25Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) The annual AIG allocation is based on the AIP primary and cargo entitlement formulas.

Aircraft landing data is uploaded from the LFM system, via a proprietary interface, to the Airport’s Tenant Management and Accounts Receivables Software, allowing for verification of aircraft landing and subsequent monthly invoicing. This contract is a sole source because changing contractors would result in a substantial cost and increased staff hours in order to create a new interface for project management, technical assistance, testing, and training for Aviation and airline staff, with associated costs for Airport business partners in staff training and process changes.
