City of Nashua

Board of Alderman

Honorable Lori Wilshire, Chair
229 Main Street

Nashua, New Hampshire. 03060

Thank you for this opportunity to present to the Board a summary of our operations and current
projects. This letter is to summarize certain financial and operational activity during this fiscal
year and the current financial position of the Nashua Airport Authority (“NAA”).

Summary of Financial Position and Operating Results:

The NAA has reported an operating surplus essentially each year, requiring no
borrowing or other outside Municipal funding. As summarized below in Exhibit A,
the NAA has an operating Budget of about $640,000 per year and employs a total
of four full time employees, including Chris Lynch, the Airport Manager.
Operating Revenuc is primarily generated from long-term Land Leases plus annual
Fuel Flowage fees, Aircraft tie-down rentals. Additionally, Aircraft Registration
fees paid by aircraft owners to the State of New Hampshire. of which the NAA

receives 25% of those fees from the State for aircraft based at Nashua.

There are 159 hangar units owned by various private owners. There are
approximately 250 aircraft, including about 15 Corporate aircraft based at Nashua
Municipal Airport (“KASH”). The Tenants ; Lessees on Airport Property return
approximately $800,000 per year in the form of property taxes to the City.

The NAA Balance Sheet is very stable and presents significant liquidity. As of
April 30, 2022, net unrestricted working capital is in excess of $800,000. All
Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable are current. Fiscal 2022 is expected to
result in another surplus in excess of $75,000. NAA has also been awarded

operating grants in excess of $250,000 per year for four ycars.

Forward Looking Financial Items

The NAA is in the process of completing its Fiscal June 30, 2023 Budget. Payroll
and other related costs account for about 75% of our Operating Budget with
Repairs, Maintenance and other property improvements and expenses making up
the majority of the rest. Revenue for Fiscal 2023 is expected to, once again, exceed

its operating expenses.

Airport Construction Projects

The NAA has recently completed a $3.6 million project for reconstruction and
resurfacing of the taxiways located on the Northwestern part of the airport and is in
the process of closing out those contracts associated with that project. Usually, all
airport projects are 90% funded by the FAA with 5% coming from the State and
5% funded by the City of Nashua. [lowever, this project ended up being fully
funded by the FAA with no contribution required from the State or City. There are
two more projects being planned and scopcd at this time. One is design only for
the rehabilitation of the primary Taxiway “Alpha” in the amount of $285,000 and
the other in the amount of $2.4 million for the rehabilitation of “F” and “G” ramps.
The City’s share of those two projects is $135,000 which is already included in the

City’s Capital Improvement Plan.

Proposed property development

There is a large parcel of land within the current Airport property in which several

aviation Developers have shown significant interest. NAA has been negotiating
