The annual report - www.manchesterairport.co.uk/manweb.nsf/alldocs/6B5F66FA480F1C85802575F20037D2D1/$File/Annual+Report200809.pdf
Moving onto HUY specifics (Page 11 of the report)
Aviation income per passenger £12.20 per passenger, up from £8.60
Commercial income excluding property £8.40 per passenger, up from £7
However operating costs per passenger also up at £17.60 as opposed to £14.90 year before
However if my maths is right the increase in income is more than the increase in costs so good news there
Here what is said about HUY:
Blaming Spanish charter airlines for passenger number declines is wrong IMO. Costs have certainly increased for Spanish charter flights with less airlines in the market, but if routes are that successful they will still operate. Also Air Europa are still in the charter market (not sure about Spanair)
Page 17 shows revenue down 2.3% at £8.6 million (doesn't tally with the earlier figures so maybe this includes revenues not from day to day activities?)
EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Impairement) down 42.9% at £0.8 million. Profit before exceptional items down 85.7% at £0.1 million. So we are still profitable on a day to day basis, just
Page 54 has some more figures
Assets valued at £21.8 million (down £1.4 million)
Liabilities valued £14.0 million (up £600,000)
(That gives a current ratio of 1.5:1, down from 1.7:1)
Capital Expenditure £400,000 (down £100,000)
Depreciation £600,000 (down £100,000)

Here what is said about HUY:
Humberside Airport experienced a reduction in passenger numbers of 7.7% in the year, due to the collapse of Spanish carriers Futura and LTE and the withdrawal of Spanair and Air Europa from the charter market.
During the year MAG undertook a review of its majority shareholding in Humberside Airport due to the relative size and strategic fit of Humberside with the portfolio. However, a number of factors including winning new North Sea business and securing other developments on site at Humberside, resulted in the decision being taken to retain the airport within the MAG
portfolio.
A state of the art cargo hub has been built and a unique simulator has been installed by Eastern Airways. Discussions are underway about further developments on site.
