Jungfrau Railway Group achieves best result


Jungfraubahn Holding AG

23.04.2014, In 2013, the Jungfrau Railway Group was able to increase its result by 16% and achieved a record profit of 30.2 million francs. The result will be commented on at today’s financial statement media conference in Bern.


With an operating revenue of 164 million francs, the Jungfrau Railway Group recorded the highest revenue in its history. The growth was reached primarily in business with Asian guests. In 2013, 823,000 people travelled to the Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe. Overall, the number of visitors was only 1.2% below the figure for the centenary year and is thus the second best result since the Jungfrau Railway opened in 1912. A higher average yield per visitor was also achieved. The business segment Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe recorded a traffic income result of CHF 92.7 million, an increase of 6.2%. The Jungfrau Railways strategy of globally strengthening the Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe brand has clearly paid off.

In the winter sport business segment, the Jungfrau Railway Group achieved a revenue of 24.3 million francs, equating to a growth of 4.2%. Continued good snow conditions from the beginning of the year to the end of the season in spring 2013 and an early start to the 2013/14 winter season, had a positive effect on the winter sport business. However, the result lies considerably below the good winter sport years of 2007 to 2009.

The Jungfrau Railway Group recorded consistently good visitor numbers in the experience moun-tains business segment, which comprises excursion traffic to the Harder Kulm, First and Winteregg-Mürren. In total it achieved CHF 9.3 million in 2013, a plus of 9.5%.

Over the last 10 years the Jungfrau Railway Group has achieved a free cash flow of CHF 207.6 million francs. It has thus exceeded by 60% its financial goal of achieving 130 million francs between 2004 and 2013, and will pay out a sustainability premium of CHF 3.7 million francs to the staff, management and executive board.
