## From the administrators' statement

The Group began experiencing a decline in trading performance in FY20 caused by the Pandemic and restrictions to travel. As a result, airport passenger numbers and travel hub footfall were significantly below 2019 levels and the recovery for international travel was expected to be gradual.

Steps taken to remedy/turnaround

When travel activity was at its lowest, the majority of the Group's non airport sites were closed and staff furloughed (or the local equivalent) where possible. Some gradual reopening had started in some locations over the last six months, albeit many sites remained closed.
