Summary of Business Changing

In 2010, the Company was negatively affected by political factors, resulting in the performance of the Company, the second and third quarters were lower than expected; however, in the last quarter of 2010 fuel consumption was back to normal. Compared to last year, total fuel consumption grew 4.9 percent. In addition, to maximize the utilization of asset, the Company improved one of the unused aviation fuel storage tanks at Don Mueang Airport to store diesel; the project was completed in September 2010. Operations at Suvarnabhumi Airport In 2010, the Company transferred 2 aviation hydrant dispenser trucks from Don Mueang Airport to Suvarnabhumi Airport; this is to allocate appropriate resources to service at each airport. Currently, in total the Company has 40 aviation hydrant dispenser trucks and 3 refueller tank trucks at Suvarnabhumi Airport. Regarding the operational changes in 2010, other than transferring the aviation hydrant dispenser trucks to Suvarnabhumi Airport, the Company is currently improving 2 out of 8 aviation hydrant dispenser trucks from using EURO 2 diesel engines to be EURO 3 diesel engines. Furthermore, in order to support the expansion of Suvarnabhumi Airport, the Company plans to increase hydrant pumps form 9 to 11 hydrant pumps, which is expected to be complete within December 2011. Outlining the amount of flights in 2010, the Company provided aviation refuelling services at Suvarnabhumi Airport, at a total of 127,736 flights, divided into 38,618 domestic flights and 89,118 international flights, or an average of 371 flights per day, increased 4.5 percent from last year. The number of flights that the Company provided service was accounted for 94 percent of the total number of flights landing at Suvarnabhumi Airport. Operations at Don Mueang Airport Certainly, the major scheduled flights airline at Don Mueang Airport is Nok Air and One Two Go, with some other charter flights. During 2010, Don Mueang Airport accommodated 15,236 flights, estimated at 42 flights per day, increased 21.7 percent from last year, with fuel consumption of 103 million liters or 283,000 liters per day, increased 10 percent from last year. With 8 refuellers at Don Mueang Airport and the flights accommodated at this airport, the Company is more than capable to provide the service. Besides the aviation refuelling and storage service at Don Mueang Airport, with maximum reserved capacity at 20 million liters, the Company has another additional service to reserve diesel since September 2010. To provide this service, the Company has modified the unused aviation fuel storage tank to receive and store diesel via pipeline before transporting diesel to Bang Pa In depot. However, in the future, if the flights and the demand of aviation fuel increases at Don Mueang Airport, the Company can restore the tank back to reserve aviation fuel as usual.

Aviation Refuelling Overview and Competition

Thailand’s aviation refuelling business in 2010 was somewhat similar as in 2009. From March to May 2010, the government declared a state of emergency under the executive degree for administration in emergency situations in many provinces throughout the country. But the airline industry benefited from the global recovery factors, and passenger figures at Suvarnabhumi Airport in total was 10.3 million, increased 6.8 percent compared to last year. In 2010, the total number of flights that the Company provided aircraft refuelling at Suvarnabhumi Airport was 135,403 flights, divided into 38,618 domestic flights, and 96,785 international flights, or an average of 371 flights per day, increased 5.1 percent from last year. Fuel consumption at Suvarnabhumi Airport in 2010 was 4,213 million liters, or an average of 11.5 million liters per day. The Company has an 88.5 percent market share for the into-plane service at Suvarnabhumi Airport. For Don Mueang Airport, the fuel consumption was 103 million liters, servicing 15,236 flights. The overall fuel consumption for both Suvarnabhumi Airport and Don Mueang Airport was 4,317 million liters, increased 4.9 percent compared to last year. For 2011, the Company forecasts that fuel consumption for both airports will be able to grow and expects the fuel consumption to be 4,392 million liters, representing a 2 percent growth. The Company predicts by the hypothesis that the major airlines at Don Mueang Airport will remain the same and no other negative factors that will affect the tourism industry seriously, causing unexpected growth of fuel consumption. The Company aims to maintain market share at Suvarnabhumi Airport for not less than 85 percent. Focusing on satisfying and fulfilling the demand of the customer, which are the oil companies. The Company will maintain service quality under the motto “Service with our hearts” and emphasizes highest priority in safety, with modern technology. This will create highest satisfaction to indirect customers, which are the airlines. The Company also focuses on cost conscious and fortifies good relationship with customers.

34


Innovating and Developing for the Future The Company will continue to fulfill its Vision and Mission by developing the capabilities of the aviation refuelling system to ensure a reliable supply of aviation fuel is available to support the growth of Suvarnabhumi airport. The Company is also studying various business opportunities as alternative means to increase its revenue. The following is a summary of these activities.

1.

Main Hydrant Pump Project The Company has already started the installation of an additional main hydrant pump, which

is to be completed in 2011. However, due to higher than expected passenger and air traffic growth, and despite the negative impact of the political and economic situation, this extra pumping capacity will be fully utilized by the time the system comes online, leaving no pumps on stand-by. In light of this, and to ensure that the Company maintains its world-class standards of operational excellence, it will be installing an additional main hydrant pump in early 2011, and will be completed during the same period as the abovementioned pump. The addition of pump will increase our maximum pumping capacity to 4,540 cubic meters per hour, while having one main hydrant pump always on stand-by, which greatly reduces system down-time, and enhances the overall availability of the pumping facility.

2.

Hydrant Dispenser Vehicle Chassis Replacement Project (2 vehicles) The Company’s hydrant dispenser vehicles have been fully utilized for providing aviation

refuelling services at Suvarnabhumi Airport since 2006. Some of the older vehicles require an amount of vehicle chassis maintenance that is increasingly disproportionate to the amount of fuel they uplift, which results in increased costs in providing service for the Company. Each year, the Company plans on replacing 2 of these older vehicle chassis with newer units that are more efficient and more environmentally friendly.

3.

Additional 15 million liter Main Storage Tank Construction Project At the current rate of air traffic growth, it is forecasted that the aviation fuel requirements at

Suvarnabhumi Airport will reach 14.5 million liters per day by 2012. To ensure that the Company is able to provide the airport with a reliable supply of aviation fuel, the 5 year strategic plan calls for the construction of an additional 15 million liter main storage tank in 2012, with completion due in 2013. The increase in buffer stock capacity will also enhance the Company’s ability to handle fluctuation in fuel demand.

35


Risk Factors

Bangkok Aviation Fuel Services Plc. has continuously and systematically managed its relevant risks, which enables the Company to mitigate risk to the acceptable level of the preceding year. The risk points and controlled plan have been annually adjusted to align with the corporate strategic target, concerning the sustainable growth of the Company and increasing value to shareholders in the long run. The risk factors of the Company which may occur and could affect shareholders and stakeholders are as follows:

1.

Business Risk Risk associated with the Growth Rate of Thai Tourism Industry The Company’s major revenue is from aircraft refuelling services at Don Mueang, Samui,

Sukhothai, and especially at Suvarnabhumi Airport; therefore, an increase of income depends largely on the number of flight services provided which is directly related to Thai tourism industry growth rate. Additional factors which can negatively impact the Company’s revenue are political turmoil and natural disasters. The closures of Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang Airports due to political demonstrations and unrest in 2008 and the cancellation of flights from Europe to Thailand due to the eruption of a volcano in Iceland in 2010 are examples of these severe incidents which are uncontrollable factors. However, the Company’s financial operating result is carefully monitored every month because the management team has set it as a main priority, as well as has set up the trigger point for some financial factors such as EBITDA and cash flow to be early warning points. In the case that revenues are going to falls below the budget, the controlling expenses plan will be conducted on every department to cover the decrease in revenue and able to pay dividends to the shareholder. Furthermore, Business Development and Marketing Department is currently conducting studies on investment in other related businesses that can create future additional revenue.

2.

Risk from Operations 2.1 Risk Relating to Inadequate Refuelling Service Devices to Cope with the Growth of Flight at Suvarnabhumi Airport The Company is facing the risk of inadequate refuelling services devices due to Airports of

Thailand Plc. (AOT)’s marketing activity and the project of enlargement at Suvarnabhumi Airport to push up the volume of flights coming to Thailand. In order to increase the Company’s capability on providing service at the peak hours, 2 additional hydrant pumps will be installed, which can provide 4,540 cubic meters per hour on pumping the aircraft fuel to the system. This project will finish in 2011. Furthermore, the Company’s Fuelling Operations Committee, which composes of the representatives from the Company’s management and oil companies, has regularly meeting for improvement services purpose. Moreover, there is the inspection from Joint Inspection Group (JIG) once a year to make sure that the Company’s operating systems meets the international standard.

36


Risk Factors

2.2 Risk Relating to Conflagration or Terrorism As the Company’s business is related to aviation fuel, the fuel storage tanks situated in vicinity of Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi Airports may be a risk of conflagration or other hazards such as terrorism. This could effect a variety of unwanted events such as personal health and safety issues, properties damage, environmental degradation, as well as the Company’s operations. The Company has highly concerned about the importance of safety, by strictly complies with the Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series: OHSAS 18001:2001. Every employee is well-aware of their individual responsibilities and strictly conforms to the health, safety, and environment policies. Furthermore, noise barrier is set up on Utrapimook Tollway in front of the Company’s depot at Don Mueang area as well as the tank protection nets are going to be installed over the oil tanks in order to avoid the risk of sabotage. Moreover, the Company has conducted the risk transfer by possessing the insurance policies with Bangkok Insurance Plc. and Dhipaya Insurance Plc. The policies cover the followings. 1. All-risks insurance policy which covers business interruption. The policy valued Baht 5,311.2 million. 2. Aviation Third Party Legal Liability Insurance Policy, valued of USD 750 millions, and Terrorism and Disaster Insurance, valued of Baht 5,440 millions. 3. Accidental Damage (property) Insurance Policy coverage for the Company’s property, valued of Baht 128.8 million. 2.3 Risk from the drive in global warming mitigation policy The negative repercussions of global warming have indeed become more accelerated and amplified, which have clearly seen from the unpredictable changes in meteorological conditions such as snow storm in Europe, deluge in Europe and Asia. Thus, all countries over the world are seriously taking these matters into account including Airports of Thailand Plc. (AOT), which released the “Green and Clean Airport” policy. In couple of years, the operators in Suvarnabhumi Airport will have to mitigate the carbon dioxide emission according to the above policy. As the Company concerns about global warming, “Carbon Footprint for Organization” project has been manipulated. This project is set up by National Metal and Material Technology Center (MTEC) and Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO) in order to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that the Company releases per year bases on the Company’s activities and operation. This project is 7- month long from December 2010 to June 2011, and then the Company will receive the certificate of carbon footprint emission volume as references to find the way of reduction.
