ENAV Board of Directors: nine months 2023 results approved
In today’s meeting chaired by Alessandra Bruni, the Board of Directors of ENAV S.p.A. approved the Interim Financial Report as of September 30, 2023. The initial three quarters of 2023 witnessed a consistent and robust expansion in air traffic, reaching unprecedented levels in Italy. En-route service units experienced a notable 4.0% increase compared to the benchmark year of 2019, which was itself a record-setting year for Italian aviation.
Chief Executive Officer Pasqualino Monti said: “The positive trend in the first nine months of 2023 confirms that the air traffic demand in the Italian airspace is very strong.
We are seeing an interesting trend and we expect to end the year in line with the positive forecasts issued by Eurocontrol.
The Company is continuing to invest in modernising the airspace infrastructure, ensuring the standard levels of safety and quality of service. We maintained excellent performance even during the summer season, which is the busiest period in terms of traffic volumes. In addition to pursuing projects related to the core business, expansion and diversification in the non-regulated market remain a central element in the Group’s industrial strategy”.
In conclusion, ENAV’s approval of the nine-month results for 2023 paints a positive picture of the aviation sector’s recovery in Italy. The record air traffic, coupled with steady financial performance, positions ENAV as a key player in fostering the resurgence of the aviation industry on both national and international fronts.
