Airports of Thailand Public Company Limited (AOT) has announced that on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, its Board of Directors has resolved to approve the bidding results for 3 concessions as follows:

AOT will make adjustments to increase the minimum guarantee in the following years by using the formula MAG(i) (based on passenger growth rate and inflation rate of a previous calendar year).

AOT will make adjustments to increase the minimum guarantee in the following years by using the formula MAG(i) (based on passenger growth rate and inflation rate of a previous calendar year).
 
3) A concession for commercial areas in the Passenger Terminal at Suvarnabhumi Airport
King Power Suvarnabhumi Co., Ltd. (KPS) won the bidding to manage commercial areas in the Passenger Terminal at Suvarnabhumi Airport from 28 September 2020 to 31 March 2031, whereby AOT will collect a monthly return at the rate of 15% of revenue of any given month before deduction of any expenses (excluding VAT) or the first year’s minimum guarantee of THB 5,798,000,000 (excluding VAT) as offered by KPS.
