We have achieved the objectives ahead of time, bringing shareholders a strong acceleration of EBITDA, through internal growth” – comments Rudolph Gentile, Chief Executive Officer of Trawell Co. – “Above all, the current and prospective contribution of Malpensa and Linate have allowed the positive revision of the economic-financial objectives up to 2027, but also the operational adjustments to the global network of commercial concessions.”
