Willie Walsh, IAG chief executive, said:
"These are positive results for the quarter with an operating
profit of EUR245 million based on total revenue up 3.4 per cent and
costs down 2 per cent. Fuel costs were down 3.9 per cent."
"Several factors have contributed to this improvement. Firstly,
the benefits of Iberia's restructuring are beginning to show.
Having reduced capacity at Iberia in the first quarter, costs began
to be taken out in the second quarter following the implementation
of the mediator's proposal. Nearly 1,700 employees have left the
airline so far with remaining staff taking salary reductions of 18
per cent for flight and cabin crew and 11 per cent for all other
employees. This is the first step in the restructuring but it is
already bearing fruit with Iberia's losses down from EUR93 million
last year to EUR35 million reversing the negative trend of the last
11 quarters."
"British Airways' performance has improved with operating profit
up from EUR94 million in 2012 to EUR247 million. The London market
and transatlantic traffic remains strong, legacy costs from the bmi
integration have ended and the airline remains focused on cost
control."
"Vueling joined IAG on April 26, 2013 and in the rest of the
quarter achieved an operating profit of EUR27 million. The airline
has continued to manage its capacity growth effectively by
expanding its business while increasing profits. It's also
benefitted from its Barcelona base where it has developed a strong
competitive position".
Trading outlook
In the light of the requirement for the Group to seek
shareholder approval for fleet orders and the consequent
requirement to report on any outstanding profit forecast as part of
that process, IAG is no longer giving guidance at the operating
profit level for 2013. However, it provides the following statement
on the outlook:
Current trading is in line with recent trends. For 2013, we
expect to grow Group capacity by 5.2 per cent including Vueling
(reduction of 2.4 per cent excluding Vueling). We should see a
reduction in the Group's non-fuel unit cost (flat excluding
Vueling).

Financial review:
FULL SIX MONTHS PERFORMANCE OF IAG TO PRIOR YEAR SIX MONTHS
Operating and market environment
The half year has seen some stability in fuel prices and foreign
exchange rates. Our continental European demand has been higher
than we had expected at the beginning of the year. Our North
America market continued to perform well. Africa, South America and
Asia, although having slightly lower economic outlooks than
expected are still showing growth opportunities.
Strategic developments
In April, IAG announced that it has placed firm orders for 18
Airbus A350-1000 aircraft and plans to convert 18 Boeing 787
options into firm orders for British Airways, subject to
shareholder approval. These aircraft will be used to replace 30
Boeing 747-400 aircraft between 2017 and 2023. For Iberia, IAG
reached agreement with Airbus as well as Boeing to secure
commercial terms and delivery slots that could lead to firm orders
for A350s and/or Boeing 787s. Firm orders will only be made when
the airline is in a position to grow profitably, having
restructured and reduced its cost base.
On April 23, the majority of Vueling Airlines, S.A.'s (Vueling)
shareholders accepted IAG's cash tender offer for the acquisition
of the remaining shares of the airline. IAG already indirectly
owned 45.85 per cent of Vueling and 82.48 per cent of the remaining
shareholders have accepted IAG's offer of EUR9.25 per share.
Therefore, the IAG Group owns 90.51 per cent of Vueling from the
acquisition completion date of April 26, 2013. The cost of
purchasing the Vueling shares was EUR124 million. On June 27,
Vueling agreed at a general shareholders meeting to delist the
remaining 9.49 per cent of shares from the Barcelona, Bilbao,
Madrid and Valencia Stock Exchanges.
On May 14, IAG successfully raised EUR390 million in a senior
unsecured convertible bond. The bonds were issued to fund its
acquisition of Vueling, enhance liquidity and lower its cost of
capital. They accrue a fixed rate of interest of 1.75 per cent per
annum, payable semi-annually in arrears. The conversion price of
EUR4.25 represents a premium of approximately 35 per cent over the
volume weighted average price of ordinary IAG shares on the London
Stock Exchange from launch to pricing.
On June 26, IAG announced the successful launch by British
Airways of a $927 million publicly-traded bond, using aircraft as
collateral. These bonds are known as EETCs (Enhanced Equipment
Trust Certificates) and are a form of aircraft financing commonly
used by US airlines. The transaction included Class A and Class B
Certificates, with an annual coupon of 4.625 per cent and 5.625 per
cent respectively. The underlying collateral pool is made up of six
new B787-8 aircraft, two new B777-300 ER aircraft and six new
A320-200 aircraft, due for delivery within the next 12 months. This
is the first time that British Airways has used EETCs and the first
time this form of financing has been used in the UK.
Exchange rates
For the six months the translation of British Airways from
sterling functional currency to the Group's euro reporting currency
has resulted in a EUR160 million year over year decrease in revenue
and a EUR147 million favourable impact on operating costs,
reflecting 2.3 per cent weakening of the pound sterling against
euro.
The transactional exchange rate impacts across the Group for the
six months saw a positive impact on revenue of EUR13 million and an
adverse impact on costs of EUR86 million.
Therefore the net adverse impact on the half year loss was EUR86
million, including EUR147 million adverse impact on revenues and
EUR61 million favourable on costs.
Vueling
The six month performance to June 30, 2013 includes Vueling from
April 26, 2013. Vueling represented 4.1 per cent of the first half
capacity, 3.2 per cent of the total revenue and earned an operating
profit of EUR27 million.
Traffic
Overall capacity grew by 1.2 per cent in the first six months of
the year and traffic grew by 2.0 per cent, increasing seat factors
0.6 points to 79.4 per cent. Excluding Vueling, capacity was down
2.9 per cent and traffic was down 2.1 per cent, leading to seat
factor improvement of 0.7 points.
Passenger revenue
Passenger revenue increased 4.0 per cent compared to the prior
year six months or 5.8 per cent at constant currency. Unit
passenger revenue (per ASK) was up 2.8 per cent and passenger yield
(per RPK) was up 2.0 per cent. At constant currency passenger unit
revenue was up 4.6 per cent and passenger yield up 3.8 per
cent.
The focus during the first six months at British Airways
continued to be sustainable yield and unit revenue improvements
with restrained capacity growth to match market demands. At Iberia
the focus for the first six months has been the implementation of
the Transformation Plan to improve profitability, reducing capacity
by 13.0 per cent, and suspending loss making routes and
frequencies.
Longhaul
North America capacity decreased by 0.6 per cent and traffic
improved by 1.4 per cent, resulting in a seat factor increase of
1.6 points to 83.2 per cent.
Latin America and Caribbean capacity declined by 8.9 per cent
and traffic fell by 10.6 per cent leading to a seat factor decrease
of 1.6 points to 82.4 per cent.
Africa, Middle East and South Asia saw capacity decreases of 1.1
per cent, traffic decreased by 0.2 per cent leading to a seat
factor increase of 0.6 points to 76.0 per cent.
Asia Pacific capacity increased 1.9 per cent, whilst traffic
grew 4.1 per cent, which resulted in a seat factor improvement of
1.7 points to 79.6 per cent.
Shorthaul
The European market has had a strong performance throughout the
first half of the year and has benefitted from the addition of
Vueling.
Europe saw capacity increase by 13.7 per cent and traffic
improved 18.2 per cent leading to a seat factor increase of 2.9
points to 75.3 per cent. Excluding Vueling, seat factor increases
were similar but on a 2.6 per cent capacity decrease.
Domestic capacity increased 22.7 per cent and traffic was up
19.2 per cent leading to a seat factor decrease of 2.1 points to
71.9 per cent. Excluding Vueling, domestic capacity was down 5.2
per cent, traffic decreased 12.2 per cent leading to a 5.5 points
decrease in seat factor.
Premium
Premium traffic (RPKs) continued to increase in the half year,
with a positive mix impact on unit revenues and yields.
Cargo and other revenue
Cargo revenues and volumes were both down but with a small yield
improvement of 0.1 per cent over the same period last year.
From April 26, Iberia's handling and maintenance revenues
related to Vueling are eliminated from the Group results. The
impact for the first half of the year was approximately EUR25
million reduction in both revenues and costs. Other revenue has
also been impacted by the industrial action in Spain due to both
losses of productivity in the first quarter and of on-going
business in the second quarter. Cargo handling volumes and yields
were also down. Other revenues have seen improvements during the
period in areas such as BA Holidays.
Costs
Total costs excluding exceptional items were down EUR45 million
or 0.5 per cent to EUR8,740 million benefitting from a lower
translation exchange rate reducing costs EUR147 million offset by
transactional currency impacts of EUR86 million. At constant
currency, total costs were up EUR16 million or 0.2 per cent, on a
capacity increase of 1.2 per cent leading to an improvement in
total unit costs of 1.0 per cent.
Non-fuel unit costs were down 0.2 per cent. Non-fuel unit costs
rose due to timing differences in quarter one from capacity cuts at
Iberia as part of the Transformation Plan in advance of headcount
reductions and at British Airways in advance of the new aircraft
arriving this year. Non-fuel unit costs are adversely impacted as
we include bmi in quarter one for the first time in 2013; quarter
one traditionally generates higher non-fuel costs per ASK than the
rest of the year due to seasonality. Quarter two saw a reversal of
these impacts and these were partially offset by the inclusion of
Vueling from April 26, 2013, as it excludes the quarter one period
and has an overall lower cost base per ASK.
Fuel costs were down EUR109 million or 3.7 per cent to EUR2,864
million and fuel unit costs were down 4.7 per cent, as a result of
lower fuel price. At constant currency fuel unit costs were also
down 4.7 per cent as adverse transaction exchange rates from the
pound sterling to US dollar movements were offset by translation
exchange benefits from pound sterling to euro movements.
Employee costs before exceptional items were flat versus last
year but up 1.4 per cent at constant currency, reflecting Vueling
costs, wage awards and higher pension service costs (due to
accounting), offset by the impact of the Iberia Transformation
Plan. Employee unit costs at constant currency were flat.
Handling, catering and other operating costs were up 8.6 per
cent to EUR924 million or 10.5 per cent at constant currency. This
increase is driven primarily by the increase in the number of
passengers carried during the period of 13.1 per cent, cycling over
quarter one where bmi was not included in the base and the
inclusion of Vueling in the second quarter. Other operating costs
have also increased as a result of additional BA Holidays activity,
increasing both revenues and costs.
Landing fees and en-route charges rose by 4.3 per cent to EUR655
million, or up 5.9 per cent at constant currency. Landing fees and
en-route charges have risen due to an increase in the volume of
landings and increases in airport charges which have exceeded
inflation.
Engineering and other aircraft costs before exceptional items
were down 1.4 per cent to EUR626 million, or down 1.6 per cent at
constant currency. The decrease is partially due to reduced third
party activity in Spain from industrial action impacting
productivity in the first quarter and a loss of on-going business
in the second quarter. These decreases have been partially offset
by other volume and price related increases.
Property, IT and other costs before exceptional items were down
EUR13 million or 2.8 per cent to EUR457 million. Property, IT and
other costs have decreased due to elimination of bmi head office
costs.
Selling costs decreased by 5.9 per cent to EUR398 million, or
down 3.5 per cent at constant currency. The decrease in selling
costs is due to the decrease in passenger numbers at Iberia and the
non-repetition of specific 2012 initiatives at British Airways,
such as the investment in Masterbrand and Olympic advertising.
These decreases have been partially offset by passenger volume
increases at British Airways and Vueling.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairment costs were down 2.7
per cent to EUR498 million, which was mostly currency related.
Aircraft operating lease costs before exceptional items rose by
2.9 per cent to EUR215 million, primarily reflecting an increase of
71 operating leased aircraft for Vueling and a decrease of nine
operating leased aircraft at Iberia.
Exceptional items
Employee restructuring costs associated with the Transformation
Plan of Iberia were recorded in 2012, calculated based on
Management's expectation and taking into consideration the labour
laws in Spain. Following acceptance of the mediator proposal in
March 2013, additional employee restructuring provisions of EUR265
million were recognised. Exceptional restructuring costs of EUR47
million associated with the return of leased aircraft and standing
down owned aircraft have also been recorded.
The acquisition of Vueling has resulted in a number of
exceptional items during the period; the exclusion of fuel cash
flow hedges in place at the time of acquisition resulting in a EUR3
million credit, acquisition costs related to the transaction of
EUR5 million and a step acquisition loss related to the original
investment held of EUR17 million. In addition there was an
exceptional credit of EUR2 million related to aircraft lease cash
flow hedges acquired upon the Iberia acquisition.
Prior year exceptional items mainly reflect the benefit realised
in the first quarter related to the settlement of competition fines
in the UK leading to a release of provision of EUR35 million and
costs associated with the restructuring of the bmi acquired
mainline business which amounted to EUR40 million in the second
quarter, including EUR8 million of transaction and integration
costs for the bmi acquisition. In addition, there was an
exceptional credit of EUR4 million in the prior six months related
to aircraft lease cash flow hedges acquired upon the Iberia
acquisition.
Operating loss
IAG operating loss before exceptional items for the six months
was EUR33 million, compared to a loss of EUR253 million in the
first half of 2012.
Non-operating items
Non-operating costs have increased from EUR104 million to EUR144
million due to increases in net financing charges of EUR32 million
and EUR10 million related to IAG's share of Vueling's
pre-acquisition losses from equity accounting.
Taxation
During the period deferred tax assets related to Iberia's
current period losses have not been recognised. The recognition of
these deferred tax assets will be reviewed in the second half of
the year as part of the annual Business planning process. Excluding
this impact, the tax credit for the quarter of EUR3 million
reflects an effective rate for the Group of 35 per cent.
Discontinued operations
Prior year discontinued operations represents the post-tax loss
for the period of bmi regional and bmibaby. bmi regional was sold
during the prior period and bmibaby ceased operations in quarter
three 2012.
Cash
Cash at June 30, 2013 was EUR3,627 million, up EUR718 million
from December 31, 2012. The increase in cash reflects the proceeds
from the EUR390 million convertible bond, net of the Vueling
consideration and acquisition costs; and the cash balances held by
Vueling. These increases have been partially offset by cash used by
both British Airways and Iberia since year end in line with the
seasonality of business.
The cash balance at June 30, 2013 comprised EUR2,116 million
held by British Airways, EUR690 million held by Iberia, EUR549

1. Corporate Information AND BASIS OF PREPARATION
On January 21, 2011 British Airways Plc and Iberia Líneas Aéreas
de España S.A. Operadora (hereinafter 'British Airways' and
'Iberia' respectively) completed a merger transaction of the two
companies to create a new leading European airline group. As a
result of the merger, International Consolidated Airlines Group
S.A. (hereinafter 'International Airlines Group', 'IAG' or the
'Group') was formed to hold the interests of both the existing
airline groups. IAG is a Spanish company registered in Madrid and
was incorporated on April 8, 2010.
IAG shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange's main market
for listed securities and also on the stock exchanges of Madrid,
Barcelona, Bilbao and Valencia (the 'Spanish Stock Exchanges'),
through the Spanish Stock Exchanges Interconnection System (Mercado
Continuo Español).
The Group's summary condensed consolidated interim financial
statements for the six months to June 30, 2013 were prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 and authorised for issue by the Board of
Directors on August 1, 2013. The condensed financial statements
herein are not the Company's statutory accounts and are
unaudited.
The basis of preparation and accounting policies set out in the
IAG Annual Report and Accounts for the year to December 31, 2012
have been applied in the preparation of these summary condensed
consolidated interim financial statements. IAG's financial
statements for the year to December 31, 2012 have been filed with
the Registro Mercantil de Madrid, and are in accordance with the
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the
European Union (IFRSs as adopted by the EU) and with those of the
Standing Interpretations issued by the International Financial
Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) of the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The report of the auditors on
those financial statements was unqualified.
For the purposes of these statements IFRS also includes
International Accounting Standards.
On April 23, 2013, the majority of Vueling Airlines, S.A.'s
(Vueling) shareholders accepted IAG's cash tender offer for the
acquisition of the remaining shares of the airline. IAG already
indirectly owned 45.85 per cent of Vueling and 82.48 per cent of
the remaining shareholders have accepted IAG's offer of EUR9.25 per
share. Therefore, the IAG Group owns 90.51 per cent of Vueling from
the acquisition completion date of April 26, 2013. The cost of
purchasing the Vueling shares was EUR124 million.
The Group has launched a public tender offer over the remaining
9.49 per cent of Vueling shares which are not already owned by the
IAG Group. The delisting tender offer is EUR9.25 per share. Vueling
will be delisted from the Barcelona, Bilbao, Madrid and Valencia
stock exchanges upon successful completion of the offer.
2. Accounting Policies
The Directors consider that the Group has adequate resources to
remain in operation for the foreseeable future and have therefore
continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim
financial statements.
The accounting policies and methods of calculation adopted are
consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the
year to December 31, 2012, as described in the financial statements
of IAG, except as set out below:
Prior period restatement - Adoption of IAS 19 'Employee
Benefits' accounting standard
The Group has adopted amendments to IAS 19 'Employee Benefits'
from January 1, 2013 and has retrospectively applied these changes
to the comparative information.
The revised standard has eliminated the use of the corridor
approach. This has resulted in recognition of all re-measurements
of the defined benefit liability or asset including gains and
losses in Other comprehensive income. At December 31, 2012 the net
pensions liability has been increased to reflect previously
unrecognised cumulative net losses, being an increase in the net
liability of EUR2,697 million, partially offset by an increase in
the related deferred tax asset of EUR620 million. Total equity is
restated at December 31, 2012 to reduce equity by EUR2,077 million
to EUR2,978 million.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued
An extract of the restated consolidated balance sheet is
set out below:

Total equity and liabilities 19,837 (852) (9) 18,976
-------------------------------- -------------- -------------------- -------------- ------------
The amended standard also requires the Group to determine the
net interest expense or income for the year on the net defined
benefit liability or asset by applying the discount rate used at
the beginning of the period to measure the defined benefit
obligation to the net defined benefit liability or asset at the
beginning of the year. It takes into account any changes in the net
defined benefit liability or asset during the year as a result of
contributions and benefit payments. Previously, the Group
determined interest income on plan assets based on their long-term
rate of expected return. Before adopting the amendment, the Group
had a finance charge or income in relation to amortisation of
actuarial losses in excess of the corridor and the effect of the
Airways pension scheme (APS) asset ceiling; following the adoption
of the amended standard, all actuarial losses and gains have been
recognised immediately in Other comprehensive income, as are
changes in the APS asset ceiling.
The effect of the prior period restatement is a decrease in the
net pensions finance charge for the six months to June 30, 2012 of
EUR32 million; EUR22 million for the elimination of financing
charges for the amortisation of actuarial losses in excess of the
corridor and EUR10 million due to a reduction in the net financing
expense relating to pensions.

---------------------------------- -------------- ------------------------- ------------ ---------- ------------
2. Accounting Policies continued
Actuarial remeasurements will occur at each year end, resulting
in no such adjustment for the six months to June 30, 2012. In
addition, the impact of changes in substantively enacted tax rates
on deferred tax assets relating to pensions results in a charge of
EUR18 million for the six months to June 30, 2012, with a reduction
in the substantively enacted tax rate from 25 per cent to 24 per
cent occurring in this period, resulting in a reduction in the
valuation of the deferred tax assets.
Unrecognised cumulative gains of EUR3 million in relation to APS
are now recognised as these represent the difference between the
net pension asset recognised and the APS asset ceiling restriction
at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2011 the net pensions
liability has been increased to reflect previously unrecognised
cumulative net losses, being an increase in the net liability of
EUR1,834 million, partially offset by an increase in the related
deferred tax asset of EUR460 million. Total equity is restated at
December 31, 2011 to reduce equity by EUR1,374 million to EUR4,312
million.
An extract of the restated consolidated balance sheet is set out
below:

Total equity and liabilities 19,753 (608) (6) 19,139
------------------------------- -------------- -------------------- -------------- ------------
The Group has adopted the following amendments from January 1,
2013:
IFRS 7 (Amendment) 'Financial Instruments: Disclosures'. The
amendment includes multiple clarifications related to the
disclosure of financial instruments. The standard requires a change
in the presentation of the Group's notes to the financial
statements but has no impact on reported profits.
IFRS 13 'Fair value measurement'. The standard aims to improve
consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition
of fair value and a single source of fair value measurement and
disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The requirements do
not extend the use of fair value accounting but provide guidance on
how it should be applied where its use is already required or
permitted by other standards within IFRS.
IAS 1 (Amendment) 'Financial statement presentation'. This
amendment requires companies to group together items within other
comprehensive income that may be reclassified to the profit or loss
section of the income statement. Items in the other comprehensive
income should be presented as either a single statement or two
consecutive primary statements.
Other amendments resulting from improvements to IFRSs did not
have any impact on the accounting policies, financial position or
performance of the Group. The Group has not early adopted any
standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but not
yet effective.
3. Business combinations
On April 26, 2013, the Group acquired a further 44.66 per cent
of the issued share capital of Vueling for EUR9.25 per share. The
cost of purchasing the additional Vueling shares was EUR124
million. The Group already indirectly owned 45.85 per cent of
Vueling through its subsidiary Iberia. Therefore, the IAG Group
owns 90.51 per cent of Vueling.
The acquisition will contribute to the geographic
diversification of the Group. Through Vueling's leading position in
Barcelona and growth in the rest of Europe, IAG expects incremental
synergies primarily from purchasing and financing, additionally
Vueling incorporates a low-cost platform for the Group.
The assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition are as
follows:

share (note 1).
(3) Fair values have not yet been finalised. The carrying values
of the assets and liabilities have been adjusted to align Vueling
to Group accounting policies.
Transaction costs related to the acquisition of Vueling
totalling EUR5 million were recognised within Exceptional items in
the Income statement for the period to June 30, 2013.
The Vueling contribution to the consolidated Group results was
total revenues of EUR281 million, and an operating profit of EUR27
million. Had Vueling been consolidated from January 1, 2013, the
Group would have reported total revenue of EUR8,989 million and an
operating loss after exceptional items of EUR376 million for the
six months to June 30, 2013.

-------------------------------------------- ---------- ---------
(1) Restructuring costs
A restructuring expense of EUR312 million has been recognised in
relation to the Iberia Transformation Plan. Employee restructuring
costs associated with the Transformation Plan of Iberia were
recorded in 2012, calculated based on Management's expectation of
the application of the new labour law in Spain. During the period,
EUR265 million of additional employee restructuring costs have been
charged to reflect the increased cost of the severance as proposed
by the mediator agreement.
Restructuring costs of EUR47 million associated with the return
of leased aircraft and standing down owned aircraft have also been
recorded.
(2) Provisions
In April 2012, British Airways settled a fine with the Office of
Fair Trading in the UK relating to investigations into passenger
fuel surcharging dating back to 2004 through to 2006. The fine
agreed was EUR70 million (GBP58.5 million), resulting in a EUR35
million release in the 6 months to June 30, 2012 of the provision
held. This provision release was considered exceptional due to its
size, incidence and in line with the recognition of the original
charge.
(3) Business combination costs
Transaction expenses of EUR5 million have been recognised in
relation to Vueling in the period to June 30, 2013.
A restructuring expense of EUR32 million was recognised in
relation to bmi mainline for the six months to June 30, 2012, and
transaction and integration expenses of EUR8 million.
(4) Derivatives and financial instruments
On January 21, 2011, Iberia had a portfolio of cash flow hedges
with a net mark-to-market charge of EUR67 million recorded within
Other reserves on the Balance sheet. On April 26, 2013, Vueling had
a portfolio of cash flow hedges with a net mark-to-market charge
which rounds to nil recorded within Other reserves in the Balance
sheet. As these cash flow hedge positions unwind, Iberia and
Vueling will recycle the impact from Other reserves through their
respective Income statement.
The Group does not recognise the pre-acquisition cash flow hedge
net position within Other reserves on the Balance sheet, resulting
in fuel and aircraft operating lease costs being gross of the
pre-acquisition cash flow hedge positions. For the six months to
June 30, 2013 this has resulted in a decrease in reported aircraft
operating lease costs of EUR2 million (2012: decrease of EUR4
million), a decrease in reported fuel expense of EUR3 million and a
related EUR2 million tax charge.
(5) Loss on step acquisition
As a result of Iberia's initial investment in Vueling, the
Business combination was achieved in stages. The Group revalued its
initial investment in Vueling to fair value at the acquisition date
resulting in a non-cash loss of EUR17 million recognised in the
Loss on sale of property, plant and equipment and investments line
within Exceptional items in the Income statement.
(6) Loss on discontinued operations
From the date of acquisition, the loss after tax from
discontinued operations of bmibaby and bmi regional was EUR10
million for the six months to June 30, 2012.
5. SEASONALITY
The Group's business is highly seasonal with demand strongest
during the summer months. Accordingly higher revenues and operating
profits are usually expected in the latter six months of the
financial year than in the first six months.
6. SEGMENT INFORMATION
a. Business segments
British Airways, Iberia and Vueling are managed as individual
operating companies. Each company operates its network operations
as a single business unit. The chief operating decision maker is
responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of
the operating segments, and has been identified as the IAG
Management Committee. The IAG Management Committee makes resource
allocation decisions based on network profitability, primarily by
reference to the markets in which the companies operate. The
objective in making resource allocation decisions is to optimise
consolidated financial results. Therefore, based on the way the
Group treats its businesses, and the manner in which resource
allocation decisions are made, the Group has three (2012: two)
reportable operating segments for financial reporting purposes,
reported as British Airways, Iberia and Vueling.

8. Tax
The tax credit for the six months to June 30, 2013 is EUR3
million (six months to June 30, 2012 (restated): EUR161 million
credit). During the period EUR174 million of deferred tax assets
related to current year Iberia tax losses incurred have not been
recognised. The recovery of these tax losses will be reviewed as
part of the annual Business Plan review in the second half of the
year. Excluding the tax assets not recognised during the period,
the effective tax rate for the six months to June 30, 2013 was 35
per cent.
Reductions to the UK corporation tax rate to 21 per cent from
April 1, 2014 and 20 per cent from April 1, 2015 have been
substantively enacted in July 2013. The total estimated financial
effect of these announced changes is a reduction in the net
deferred tax liability of EUR43 million and will be recorded in the
second half of the year.
9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share for the six months to June 30, 2013 are
calculated on a weighted average of 1,848,760,446 ordinary shares
and adjusted for shares held for the purposes of Employee Share
Ownership Plans. Diluted earnings per share for the period to June
30, 2013 are calculated on a weighted average of 2,168,681,808
diluted ordinary shares (2012: 2,050,822,515).
The number of shares in issue at June 30, 2013 was 1,855,369,557
ordinary shares of EUR0.50 each (2012: 1,855,369,557 ordinary
shares of EUR0.50 each).
10. DIVIDENDS
The Directors propose that no dividend be paid for the six
months to June 30, 2013 (June 30, 2012: EURnil).

Capital expenditure authorised and contracted for but not

Group commitments (December 31, 2012: EUR4,910 million). In April
2013, IAG announced that it has placed firm orders for 18 Airbus
A350-1000 aircraft and plans to convert 18 Boeing 787 options into
firm orders for British Airways, subject to shareholder approval.
These amounts will be included in capital expenditure authorised
but not provided for once shareholder approval has been obtained.
The majority of capital expenditure commitments are denominated in
US dollars and are subject to fluctuations in exchange rates.
12. IMPAIRMENT REVIEW
At December 31, 2012 as part of the annual impairment test of
the Iberia cash generating unit, the carrying amount of Iberia's
goodwill was fully impaired and the carrying amount of its Brand
was impaired by EUR79 million. The impairment of these assets
reduced Iberia's carrying value to its estimated value-in-use. Any
further declines in Iberia's estimated value-in-use remains liable
for additional impairment of Brand, customer loyalty programmes or
landing rights. Any increase in Iberia's estimated value-in-use
could result in the reversal of all or a portion of the original
impairment of Brand.
Annually the Group prepares and approves formal five year
Business Plans during the second half of the year. For the six
months to June 30, 2013, Management has reviewed the indefinite
life intangible assets using consistent methodologies from year end
as disclosed in the 2012 Annual report and accounts. The 2012
Business Plans were updated with the 2013 revised full year
forecast for this exercise, taking into account the impacts of the
mediator agreements. Based on these revised assumptions, management
considers the carrying values to continue to be supported at June
30, 2013.
13. NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
The non-current assets held for sale of EUR3 million represent
property acquired as part of the bmi acquisition which is expected
to be sold within 12 months (2012: EUR3 million).

b. Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities
The fair values of the Group's financial instruments are
disclosed in hierarchy levels depending on the nature of the inputs
used in determining the fair values as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level
1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
observable market data.

b. Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities continued
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Group in
estimating its fair value disclosures for financial
instruments:
Available-for-sale financial assets
Listed fixed asset investments (level 1) are stated at market
value as at June 30, 2013. For other investments (level 3) where
the fair value cannot be measured reliably, these assets are stated
at historic cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Forward currency contracts, options, over-the-counter (OTC) fuel
derivatives, and interest rate derivatives
These are stated at the market value of instruments with similar
terms and conditions at the balance sheet date (level 2).
Interest-bearing loans and borrowings and finance leases
excluding i-ii below:
The repayments that the Group is committed to make have been
discounted at the relevant market interest rates applicable at June
30, 2013.
(i) Euro-sterling notes euro-sterling bond 2016 and convertible bond 2018:
These are stated at quoted market value (level 1).
(ii) Iberbond 2014:
These are valued at amortised cost (level 2).

The Group issued a EUR390 million fixed rate convertible bond in
May 2013, raising net proceeds of EUR386 million, which holds a
coupon rate of 1.75 per cent and is convertible into ordinary
shares at the option of the holder before or upon maturity in May
2018. The conversion price was set at a premium of 35 per cent on
the Group's share price on the date of issuance. The Group holds an
option to redeem the convertible bond at its principal amount,
together with accrued interest, upon fulfilment of certain
pre-determined criteria. The equity portion of the convertible bond
issue is included in Other reserves. From issuance and at June 30,
2013 91,758,228 options were outstanding.
In August 2009, British Airways issued a GBP350 million fixed
rate 5.8 per cent convertible bond, convertible into ordinary
shares at the option of the holder, before or on maturity in August
2014. Under the terms of the merger, the bondholders are now
eligible to convert their bonds into ordinary shares of IAG.
Conversion into ordinary shares will occur at rate of GBP1.89 per
share. The equity portion of the convertible bond issue is included
in Other reserves. At June 30, 2013 184,708,995 options were
outstanding (December 31, 2012: 184,708,995).
At June 30, 2013 the Group had an undrawn, fully committed
financing agreement in place related to a $927 million EETC bond
issue in June 2013.
17. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
During the period 7,625,742 conditional shares were awarded
under the Group's Performance Share Plan (PSP) to key senior
executives and selected members of the wider management team. No
payment is due upon the vesting of the shares. The fair value of
equity-settled share options granted is estimated as at the date of
the award using the Monte-Carlo model, taking into account the
terms and conditions upon which the options were awarded. The
following are the inputs to the model for the PSP options granted
in the period:
Expected share price volatility: 40 per cent
Expected life of options: 3 years
Weighted average share price: GBP2.69
The Group also made awards under the Bonus Deferral Plan (BDP)
during the period, under which 2,753,837 conditional shares were
awarded.
18. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS
The Group operates two principal funded defined benefit pension
schemes in the UK, the Airways pension scheme (APS) and the New
Airways pension scheme (NAPS), both of which are closed to new
members. The Group did not perform an interim valuation as at June
30, 2013 as there had been no significant movement in
assumptions.
During the period, the Group has adopted amendments to IAS19
'Employee Benefits', and applied these retrospectively. The impact
of the restatement is set out in note 2.
The Group has reached agreement in principle with the trustees
of its two main pension schemes on the schemes' regular triennial
valuations. The agreement confirms that the existing contribution
plans for the APS and NAPS remain on track to pay the pension
liabilities. The valuations are based on the schemes' funding
position as at March 31, 2012.

20. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
There were contingent liabilities at June 30, 2013 in respect of
guarantees and indemnities entered into as part of the ordinary
course of the Group's business. No material losses are likely to
arise from such contingent liabilities. A number of other lawsuits
and regulatory proceedings are pending, the outcome of which in the
aggregate is not expected to have a material effect on the Group's
financial position or results of operations.
The Group has certain liabilities and commitments, which at June
30, 2013 amounted to EUR110 million (December 31, 2012: EUR110
million).

REVIEW REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
To the Shareholders of International Consolidated Airlines Group
S.A. at the request of Management:
1. We have carried out a review of the accompanying condensed
consolidated interim financial statements (hereinafter the interim
financial statements) of International Consolidated Airlines Group
S.A. (hereinafter the Parent Company) and subsidiaries (hereinafter
the Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet at 30
June 2013, the consolidated income statement, consolidated
statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of
changes in equity, the consolidated cash flow statement, and the
notes thereto , all of them condensed for the six-month period then
ended. The Parent Company's directors are responsible for the
preparation of said interim financial statements in accordance with
the requirements established by IAS 34, "Interim Financial
Reporting," as adopted by the European Union for the preparation of
interim condensed financial reporting as per article 12 of Royal
Decree 1362/2007 and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the
United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority. Our responsibility
is to conclude on these interim financial statements based on our
review.
2. Our review was performed in accordance with the International
Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial
Reporting Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A
review of the interim financial statements consists of making
inquiries, primarily of personnel responsible for financial and
accounting matters, and applying certain analytical and other
review procedures. The scope of a review is substantially smaller
than that of an audit and therefore, it is not possible to provide
assurance that all the significant matters that could be identified
in an audit have come to our attention. Therefore, we do not
express an audit opinion on the accompanying interim financial
statements.
3. During the course of our review, which under no circumstances
can be considered an audit of financial statements, no matter came
to our attention which would lead us to conclude that the
accompanying interim financial statements for the six-month period
ended 30 June 2013 have not been prepared, in all material
respects, in accordance with the requirements established by
International Accounting Standard 34, "Interim Financial
Reporting," as adopted by the European Union in conformity with
article 12 of Royal Decree 1362/2007 for the preparation of
condensed interim financial statements and the Disclosure and
Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Services
Authority.
4. Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to
accompanying explanatory Note 1 to the interim financial
statements, where it is stated that the abovementioned interim
financial statements do not include all the information that would
be required for complete consolidated financial statements prepared
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as
adopted by the European Union, and therefore the accompanying
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December
2012.
5. The accompanying interim consolidated management report for
the six-month period ended 30 June, 2013 contains such explanations
as the Parent Company's directors consider necessary regarding the
events which occurred during said period and their effect on the
interim financial statements, of which it is not an integral part,
as well as on the information required in conformity with article
15 of Royal Decree 1362/2007. We have checked that the accounting
information included in the report mentioned above agrees with the
interim financial statements for the six months period ended 30
June 2013. Our work is limited to verifying the management report
in accordance with the scope mentioned in this paragraph, and does
not include the review of information other than that obtained from
the accounting records of the consolidated companies.
6. This report has been prepared at the request of Management
with regard to the publication of the half-year financial report
required by article 35 of Securities Market Law 24/1988, of July
28, further developed by Royal Decree 1362/2007, of October 19 and
the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's
Financial Services Authority.
