Item 6. ManagementsDiscussionandAnalysisofFinancialConditionandResultsof Operations. Revenues 2006 AboitizTransportSystemCorporation(ATSortheCompany)postedtotalconsolidated Revenues of P10.6 billion in 2006.Its freight business constitutes the bulk of the Companys revenues at 62% or P6.5 billion.It reflected a slight 5% drop versus 2005 largely because of thedeclineintheinternationalcharterbusinessfromitssubsidiarycompany,Jebsen Management(BVI)Ltd.(JMBVI)duetounfavorablemarketconditionsandtheshipping businessreductioninfleetcapacity.Likewise,ATSpassagebusinessreflectedan18% decline against last year to register at P3.0 billion in 2006.Aggressive promotions from the airlines have contributed to lower passage volumes and rates. 2005 The Company posted higher consolidated revenues in 2005 as compared to the previous year.At the end of 2005, total revenues reached P11.7 billion, registering an increase of about 20% oraboutP2.0billionovertheP9.7billion2004revenues.Thejumpinrevenuesislargely attributable to the 37% increase in freight revenues, which is mainly due to the consolidation of about P1.9 billion of freight revenues of JMBVI and subsidiaries in 2005.This group is not includedintherestatedconsolidated2004financialstatementsastheywereonlyacquired by the Company in 2005.Average freight rate per TEU of the parent company increased 7% over2004.Likewise,averagerateperpassengerrose12%ascomparedtotheprevious year.Otheraccountscontributingtotheincreaseinrevenuesincludepassagemeals, logistics and other income coming from JMBVI. 2004 The Company, on consolidated basis, posted revenues totaling P9.7 billion.Passage revenue reachedP3.7billionbroughtaboutbystrongmarketingeffortsofpromotinghighervalue passenger accommodations and higher number of passengers carried during the year.The CompanysfreightbusinesslikewisepostedrevenuesofP5.0billionbroughtaboutbyits focus on higher paying and higher yielding cargoes.

The Companys Terminal and Overhead Expenses also reduced by 12% and 4%, respectively, versuslastyear.Amongthemajorcontributorstothedecreaseintheseexpenses,are the 30% decline in the cost of outside services and 12% decline in personnel costs. ATS overall lower costs resulted in increased operating efficiencies across the organization. 2005 TotalcostsandexpensesreachedP11.5billion,25%higheroverthesameperiodlastyear.The increase is largely attributable to the 32% surge in operating expenses.The Companys fuelandlubricantsexpenses,itssinglelargestexpense,increased23%fromP2.7billionin 2004toP3.3billionin2005,directlydrivenbytheriseinaveragefuelanddieselpricesof 34%fromP13.6toP18.3perliter.ATSalsoincurredin2005P1.9billionincharterhire expensesfromitssubsidiarieshavingoutstandingCharterPartyAgreementswithvessels owners for the use of the vessels or for sublease to third parties.
