Differences may occur due to rounding.
Due to the following changes to segmental reporting, the prior year's reference
figures were restated accordingly:
In Q2 2016 / 17, the hotel operating company Blue Diamond Hotels and Resorts
Inc., St. Michael, Barbados, previously carried in the Northern Region segment,
was integrated in the hotel business and has therefore now been reported within
Hotels & Resorts. Moreover, the British cruise business Thomson Cruises, which
had also previously been reported within the Northern Region segment, was
transferred to the Cruises segment. Moreover, due to the planned disposal of
Travelopia - a large part of the Specialist Group segment - Crystal Ski and
Thomson Lakes & Mountains were reclassified to Northern Region. The remaining
segment has been carried as a discontinued operation since 30 September 2016.
1 In order to explain and evaluate the operating performance by the segments,
EBITA adjusted for one-off effects (underlying EBITA) is presented. Underlying
EBITA has been adjusted for gains / losses on disposal of investments,
restructuring costs according to IAS 37, ancillary acquisition costs and
conditional purchase price payments under purchase price allocations and other
expenses for and income from one-off items.
2 EBITA comprises earnings before net interest result, income tax and impairment
of goodwill excluding losses on container shipping and excluding the result from
the measurement of interest hedges.
3 Equity divided by balance sheet total in %, variance is given in percentage
points.
INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT
Delivering our transformation as the world's leading
integrated tourism business
- Good overall performance in the first half driven by growth in
Hotels & Resorts and Cruises, as well as delivery of merger synergies.
- Current trading for Summer 2017 remains in line with our expectations.
- Strength of the integrated model and balanced portfolio of markets and
destinations enable us to continue to deliver sustainable growth.
- Travelopia disposal on track to complete during H2 2016 / 17; German airline
JV negotiations ongoing.
- Reiterate our guidance of at least 10 % growth in underlying EBITA in 2016 /
17 1.

2 Continuing operations
- In order to demonstrate better the performance of our hotel and cruise brands,
results for Thomson Cruises and Blue Diamond hotels (formerly within Northern
Region) are now reported within the Cruise and Hotels & Resorts segments. Prior
year results have been restated accordingly.
- Hotels & Resorts - good performance by Riu, Robinson and Blue Diamond, with
openings for Riu in Jamaica, TUI Blue in Tenerife and Blue Diamond in the
Caribbean. Our popular brands, integrated model and strong presence in year
round destinations continue to drive high levels of occupancy (Riu 88 %, overall
Hotels & Resorts 75 %) whilst still delivering 5 % growth in average revenue per
bed.
- Cruises - strong growth driven by TUI Cruises and Thomson Cruises as a result
of the first Winter operations of Mein Schiff 5 and TUI Discovery, as well as
increased earnings from Hapag-Lloyd Cruises.
- Source Markets - more relevant to more customers, with 3 % growth in customers
and further progress in increasing direct and online distribution (73 % and 47 %
respectively). The TUI rebrand is progressing well in Nordics and Belgium and
our new customer IT platform has been rolled out to all markets.
- As outlined at Q1, the Source Markets result has been impacted by higher than
normal levels of sickness in TUI fly in October 2016, as well as the impact of
rebrand costs and the later timing of Easter.
- See Segmental Performance section on pages 7 to 11 for further detail.
Current trading
Winter 2016/17
Current trading for Winter has closed out in line with our expectations. We have
delivered further expansion in our hotel and cruise brands, with openings for
Riu, TUI Blue, Blue Diamond, as well as the first Winter of operations for Mein
Schiff 5 (TUI Cruises) and TUI Discovery (Thomson Cruises). In Source Markets,
customer growth has been driven by long haul, Canaries, Cape Verde and Cyprus,
with a continued increase in customers staying in our own hotels.
Summer 2017
Summer 2017 remains in line with our expectations, with good overall demand for
our hotel and cruise brands, and from our Source Markets. In our hotel brands,
we recently opened a TUI Blue property in Tuscany, and will open another in
Croatia this July. Subdued demand for Turkey and North Africa continue to be
offset by the popularity of other destinations including Spain and Canaries,
Greece, Cyprus, Cape Verde and Caribbean.
In Cruises, TUI Cruises will launch the newly built Mein Schiff 6 in June. The
2,500 berth ship will be based initially in Kiel (Germany) before moving to New
Jersey for itineraries in the USA and Caribbean. Demand for cruises remains
buoyant in Germany, and we remain pleased with the performance of the TUI
Cruises fleet. Thomson Cruises continues its programme of modernisation with the
launch of TUI Discovery 2. The 1,800 berth ship, recently acquired from Royal
Caribbean, will be based in the Mediterranean this Summer before moving to the
Caribbean for Winter 2017 / 18. We are pleased with sales for the new ship, as
well as the performance of the rest of the Thomson Cruises fleet.
The Source Markets' programme, which includes sales of holidays to our own and
third party hotels, is 62 % sold, in line with prior year. Bookings are 4 %
ahead of prior year, with growth in demand for Greece, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Cape Verde and long haul. We are also continuing to drive direct and
online distribution, with bookings made via these channels up 4 % and 6 %
respectively.
In the UK, despite the backdrop of Brexit, demand for our holidays remains
resilient with the percentage of the programme sold in line with prior year. As
previously outlined, revenue and selling price reflects to an extent the impact
of currency cost inflation for Euro based destinations this Summer.

* These statistics are up to 7 May 2017, shown on a constant currency basis and
relate to all customers whether risk or non-risk.
Trading by the Hotels & Resorts segment largely mirrors customer volumes in the
source markets, as a high proportion of the Group owned hotel beds are taken up
by TUI tour operators. In the Cruises segment, advance bookings were up
year-on-year with sound demand levels, primarily due to continued fleet
expansion.
Outlook
The Group has delivered a good H1 overall and Summer 2017 continues to trade in
line with our expectations. We therefore reiterate our guidance of at least 10 %
growth in underlying EBITA in 2016 / 17 (at constant foreign exchange rates
applied in the current and prior period, and based on the current group
structure.)
We are continuing to deliver our transformation as the world's leading
integrated tourism business, focussed on own hotel and cruise brands, with
growth enabled and de-risked by our strength in distribution and direct customer
relationships, and financed by our strong operating cash flows and disposal
proceeds. Whilst the turbulent macroeconomic and geopolitical backdrop is
evident in certain destinations and markets, our operational experience,
integrated model and balanced portfolio of markets and destinations mean that we
are well placed to deal with these challenges and continue to deliver
sustainable growth into the longer term.
Expected development of Group turnover, underlying EBITA and
adjustments
Expected development vs. PY
EUR million 2015 / 16 restated 2016 / 17*
Turnover 17,185 around 3 % growth
Underlying EBITA 1,001 at least 10 % growth
Adjustments 103 approx. EUR 100 m cost
* Variance year-on-year assuming constant foreign-exchange rates are applied to
the result in the current and prior period and based on the current group
structure;
guidance relates to continuing operations and excludes any disposal proceeds for
Travelopia and Hapag-Lloyd AG.
The expected development of adjustments has been updated to EUR 100 m in order
to reflect the earlier recognition of restructuring costs in relation to the
Transat integration. It is expected that this will be offset by lower net
interest costs for the Group, reflecting the lower cost of debt finance.
Structure and strategy of TUI Group
Reporting structure
In the Interim Financial Report for H1 2016 / 17 the TUI Group reporting
structure is mainly based on that introduced for the Annual Report 2015 / 16.
Details see Annual Report 2015 / 16: page 44ff
Due to the following changes to segmental reporting, the prior year's reference
figures were restated accordingly.
Reclassifications from Northern Region segment
In Q2 2016 / 17, the hotel operating company Blue Diamond Hotels and Resorts
Inc., St. Michael, Barbados, previously reported within Northern Region, was
included within the hotel business and is therefore now reported within Hotels &
Resorts. Moreover, the UK cruise business Thomson Cruises, also previously
carried in Northern Region, was reclassified to the Cruises segment.
Specialist Group
In addition, Crystal Ski and Thomson Lakes & Mountains were reclassified to
Northern Region in preparation for the planned disposal of Travelopia, a large
part of the Specialist Group segment. The remaining segment has been carried as
a discontinued operation since 30 September 2016. An agreement on the disposal
of Travelopia to Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. LP was concluded in February
2017. KKR will acquire Travelopia for an enterprise value of EUR 381 m. The
disposal proceeds will be invested to finance the continued expansion of the
hotel and cruise growth segments. The closing of the transaction is subject to
the relevant regulatory approvals and is expected during H2 2016 / 17.
Details see Notes from page 28
Group targets and strategy
The TUI Group continues to pursue its strategy as presented in financial year
2015 / 16.
Our assessment of the expected synergies and one-off costs resulting from the
merger between TUI AG and TUI Travel PLC is retained as presented in the Annual
Report for 2015 / 16. In H1 2016 / 17, we delivered synergies worth EUR 10 m
from the merger with TUI Travel, which resulted from the consolidation of
overlapping Corporate Centre functions.
Details see Annual Report 2015 / 16: page 28 - 43

- Northern Region results have been restated to exclude Thomson Cruises (now in
Cruises) and Blue Diamond hotels (now in Hotels & Resorts).
- The result includes approximately EUR 20 m phasing impact from the later
timing of Easter.
- Northern Region continues to deliver high levels of direct and online
distribution, at 90 % and 63 % respectively.
- UK customer volumes increased by 8 % in H1 2016 / 17, with a good end to
Summer and growth in long haul in Winter. This was offset by P & L charges
arising from an increase in the valuation of US dollar based maintenance
reserves (due to the weaker Pound Sterling) and an increase in pension service
costs (technically driven by lower interest rates). The result was also impacted
to some extent in Q2 by currency cost inflation, due to the weakening of the
Pound Sterling.
- As expected, Nordic's H1 performance was impacted by lower demand for Turkey
and Egypt. In addition, the result includes the impact of rebrand marketing
costs. Based on current trading, we expect an improvement in H2 performance and
remain focused on driving further operational efficiency improvements.
- Earnings in our Canadian joint venture increased significantly on prior year,
when it was unable to fully pass on higher accommodation costs as a result of
the weakening of the Canadian versus US dollar.

- Central Region has continued to increase the share of bookings via direct and

- Germany continues to build on its market share gains with an increased range
of holidays and departure airports on offer, delivering an improved trading
performance in H1.
- As outlined at Q1, the result was impacted by higher than normal levels of
sickness in TUI fly in October 2016 resulting in a number of flight
cancellations. In addition, the result includes approximately EUR 4 m from the
later timing of Easter, as well as additional aircraft repair costs.
- Negotiations with Etihad regarding the creation of an airline joint venture to
serve the German, Austrian and Swiss markets are ongoing.

- Further growth in both direct and online distribution to 73 % and 56 %
respectively, aided by the rebrand in Belgium.
- The result reflects the first time inclusion of Transat's seasonal EBITA loss,
as well as the impact of rebrand costs in Belgium and EUR 5 m timing impact of
Easter.
- The Netherlands result was impacted by night slot restrictions at Schiphol
Airport and increased claims for denied boarding compensation. The Summer
programme has been altered to take these restrictions into account.

- This segment now includes the results of Blue Diamond hotels, which is part of
our joint venture in Canada. The result includes EUR 9 m impact from the later
timing of Easter.
- Our popular brands, integrated model and strong presence in year round
destinations continue to drive high levels of occupancy
(Riu 88 %, overall Hotels & Resorts 75 %) whilst still delivering 5 % growth in
average revenue per bed.
- Riu delivered another strong performance, particularly in Spain and Mexico,
with a 7 % increase in average revenue per bed. As expected, this was partly
offset by the gain on disposal of the Riu Tropicana in the prior year.
- Robinson also delivered a good performance, with 3 % growth in average revenue
per bed overall.
- As expected, these were offset partly by the adverse impact from lower demand
for Turkey. Encouragingly we are seeing an improvement in occupancy in our
hotels in North Africa.

- This segment now includes the results of Thomson Cruises, formerly reported
within Northern Region.
- TUI Cruises continues to deliver significant growth whilst maintaining a
strong occupancy and rate performance, with an additional ship (Mein Schiff 5)
this Winter. This was offset partly by a planned increase in dry dock days.
- Thomson Cruises' result has also increased significantly, with the first
Winter of operations of TUI Discovery and a good occupancy and rate performance
across the fleet.
- Hapag-Lloyd Cruises has delivered an increase in earnings, benefitting from
improvements to itineraries and fewer dry dock days than prior year.

Financial position and net assets
Cash Flow / Net capex and investments / Net debt
The cash outlow from operating activities decreased by EUR 286.8 m year-on-year.
This was mainly due to an improvement in working capital seasonality following
the disposal of Hotelbeds Group in September 2016, and positive exchanges rate
effects.

As at 31 March 2016 / 17, TUI Group's balance sheet total amounted to EUR 14.2
bn (30 September 2016: EUR 14.5 bn). Non-current assets rose by 8.4 % overall,
mainly driven by higher goodwill due to the acquisition of Transat's French tour
operator business and an increase in property, plant and equipment due to the
purchase of cruise ship TUI Discovery 2. The decline in current assets of 18.3 %
was mainly attributable to the seasonal decline in cash and cash equivalents. On
the liabilities side, non-current provisions and liabilities decreased by 6.0 %,
partly driven by a decline in pension provisions due to higher capital market
interest rates, the issuance of a bond in October 2016 and the use of long-term
credit lines. As at 31 March 2017, the equity ratio stood at 20.0 %, falling
below its level of 22.5 % as at 30. September 2016, the balance sheet date.

Fuel / Foreign exchange
Our strategy of hedging the majority of our jet fuel and currency requirements
for future seasons, as detailed below, remains unchanged. This gives us
certainty of costs when planning capacity and pricing. The following table shows
the percentage of our forecast requirement that is currently hedged for Euros,
US Dollars and jet fuel for our Source Markets, which account for over 90 % of

In H1 2016 / 17, turnover totalled EUR 6.4 bn, up by 3.3 % year-on-year. On a
constant currency basis, turnover grew by 8.2 % year-on-year in H1. With
customer numbers up around 3 %, this growth was driven by an overall higher
proportion of long-haul travel, higher selling prices in Source Market UK due to
the exchange rate-driven cost inflation for destinations in the Eurozone and the
acquisition of Transat's French tour operator business. The turnover growth also
reflected higher average prices within Hotels & Resorts and growth posted by
Thomson Cruises due to the first-time Winter operation of TUI Discovery.
The result from continuing operations improved in H1 2016 / 17, driven by an
increase in the operating performance and an improvement in the financial
result, which had comprised an expense of EUR 100.3 m in connection with the
measurement of the investment in Hapag-Lloyd AG in the prior year reference
period.
Alternative performance measures
Key indicators used to manage the TUI Group are EBITA and underlying EBITA. We
consider EBITA to be the most suitable performance indicator for explaining the
development of the TUI Group's operating performance. EBITA comprises earnings
before interest, taxes and goodwill
impairments; it does not include the results from container shipping
operations nor the results from the measurement of interest hedging instruments.
The table below shows a reconciliation of earnings before taxes from continuing
operations to underlying earnings. In H1 2016 / 17, adjustments including
purchase price allocations worth EUR 37.6 m were effected for continuing
operations, up EUR 3.1 m year-on-year. Material adjustments in H1 related to
expenses of around EUR 24 m for the integration of the French TUI tour operator
following the acquisition of Transat, which went hand in hand with income
generated from the reversal of a restructuring provision no longer required in
Central Region. Adjustments also included one-off items reflecting restructuring
costs in the regions and the cost of integration of Destination Services with
the Source Market organisations.

Corporate Governance
Composition of the Boards
In H1 2016 / 17 the composition of the Executive Board of TUI AG changed as
follows.
In December 2016, the Supervisory Board appointed Frank Rosenberger as TUI AG
Executive Board member IT and New Markets. Frank Rosenberger assumed these
responsibilities as at 1 January 2017, initially as Deputy Executive Board
member.
The current, complete composition of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board
is listed on our website, where it has been made permanently available to the
public.
Risk and Opportunity Report
Successful management of existing and emerging risks and opportunities is
critical to the long-term success of our business and to the achievement of our
strategic objectives. Full details of our risk governance framework and
principal risks and opportunities can be found in the Annual Report 2015 / 16.
The principal risks and uncertainties outlined in that report continue to face
the Group.
Of the above risks, input cost volatility is judged to have increased over the
period under review, H1 2016 / 17, due to sterling remaining at rates
significantly lower than those seen prior to last year's UK Brexit referendum.
In line with TUI's hedging policy, the UK Source Market had already hedged a
significant proportion of its foreign currency requirements ahead of the Brexit
referendum, however on the unhedged portion this results in higher costs which
will impact the UK business in the second half of the year.
With the UK government formally triggering Article 50 on 29th March 2017, Brexit
has gone from being an emerging risk to an active principal risk facing the
Group. At this stage there is still not a great deal of information available to
enable us to confidently and accurately assess the potential impact on the
Group. However, with recent press briefings from EU officials stating that there
will be no special deal for aviation, our main concern at present is centred
around whether or not all of our airlines would, as things stand, continue to
have access to EU airspace as now. We will continue to lobby relevant UK and EU
ministers and officials to stress the importance of there being a special deal
for aviation to protect consumer choice in both regions, and will assess other
steps we might be able to take to ensure the Group is not adversely affected to
any material extent in this area. Our Brexit Steering Committee will continue to
monitor external developments as the political negotiations commence in H2. When
more detailed information eventually becomes available, it will assess whether
there will be any specific impacts on our business model and any necessary
changes we may be forced to take to mitigate these impacts once the UK does
leave the EU.

NOTES
General
TUI Group, its major subsidiaries and other shareholdings operate in the tourism
business. TUI AG based in Hanover and Berlin, Germany, is TUI Group's parent
company and a listed corporation under German law. The shares in the Company are
traded on the London Stock Exchange and the Hanover and Frankfurt Stock
Exchanges.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of TUI AG and its
subsidiaries cover the period from
1 October 2016 to 31 March 2017. The interim consolidated financial statements
are prepared in euros. Unless stated otherwise, all amounts are stated in
million euros (EUR m).
The interim consolidated financial statements were released for publication by
the Executive Board of TUI AG on 11 May 2017.
Accounting principles
Declaration of compliance
The interim consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2017
comprise condensed interim consolidated financial statements and an interim
Group management report in accordance with section 37w of the German Securities
Trading Act (WpHG).
The interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in compliance with
the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the UK Financial Services Authority and
in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and
the relevant Interpretations of the International Accounting Standards Board
(IASB) for interim financial reporting applicable in the European Union.
In accordance with IAS 34, the Group's interim financial statements are
published in a condensed form compared with the consolidated annual financial
statements and should therefore be read in combination with TUI AG's
consolidated financial statements for financial year 2015 / 16. The interim
financial statements were reviewed by the Group's auditors.
Going concern report according to the UK Corporate Governance Code
TUI Group meets its day-to-day working capital requirements through cash in
hand, bank balances and bank loans. As at 31 March 2017, TUI Group's net debt
position (financial liabilities less cash and cash equivalents) including
discontinued operations totals EUR 1,098.5 m (as at 30 September 2016 net
financial assets of EUR 349.8 m). The increase in net debt versus financial
year-end is driven by normal seasonal cash outflows, mainly within the tour
operators. Net debt consists of EUR 937.4 m of cash and cash equivalents, EUR
170.8 m of current financial liabilities, and EUR 1,865.0 m of non-current
financial liabilities. The Executive Board remains satisfied with the Group's
long-term funding and liquidity position. The sources of debt funding include an
external revolving credit facility of EUR 1,535.0 m maturing in December 2020,
used to manage the seasonality of the Group's cash flows and liquidity. The
revolving credit facility requires compliance with financial covenants. All
covenants were fully complied with at the balance sheet date.
Alongside this credit facility, other bank liabilities exist as at 31 March
2017, for example, loans used to acquire property, plant and equipment. These
bank liabilities total EUR 471.2 m at the balance sheet date.
Apart from these bank liabilities, the Group's main financial liabilities as at
31 March 2017 include:
- bond 2016 / 21 with a nominal value of EUR 300.0 m issued by TUI AG, maturing
in October 2021.
- finance lease obligations worth EUR 1,230.5 m
Due to the current economic factors and political situation in some
destinations, there is more uncertainty over customer demand. TUI's Executive
Board assumes that TUI's business model is sufficiently flexible to compensate
the challenges currently identified. Forecasts have shown that TUI Group will
continue to have sufficient funds available from borrowings and operating cash
flows in order to meet its payment obligations for the foreseeable future and
guarantee its ability to continue as a going concern. The interim financial
statements were therefore prepared on the going concern basis of accounting.
Accounting and measurement methods
The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make
estimates and judgements that
affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities as
at the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of turnover and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results may deviate from the estimates.
The accounting and measurement methods adopted in the preparation of the interim
financial statements as at 31 March 2017 are basically consistent with those
followed in preparing the previous consolidated financial statements for the
financial year ended 30 September 2016. The income taxes were recorded based on
the best estimate of the weighted average tax rate that is expected for the
whole financial year.
Newly applied standards
Since the beginning of the financial year 2016 / 17 the following standards
amended or newly issued by the IASB became mandatorily applicable for the first
time to TUI Group:

Restatement caused by Discontinued operations
Due to the planned sale of the Specialist Group segment in financial year 2016 /
17, the segment is reported as a discontinued operation from 30 September 2016.
The prior year consolidated income statement was restated accordingly.
As the group of companies of the Hotelbeds Group sold was readjusted after the
reclassification to 'Assets held for sale' in the first half year 2015 / 16, the
result from the discontinued operation Hotelbeds Group reported for the first
half of financial year 2015 / 16 also changed retrospectively.
For further explanations please refer to the section 'Acquisitions - Divestments

Group of consolidated companies
The consolidated financial statements include all major subsidiaries over which
TUI AG has control. Control requires TUI AG to have decision-making power over
the relevant activities, be exposed to variable returns and have entitlements
regarding the returns, or have the ability to affect the level of those variable
returns through its decision-making power.
The interim financial statements as at 31 March 2017 included a total of 415
subsidiaries of TUI AG.
Since 1 October 2016, a total of seven companies have been newly included in the
consolidation. Four of these companies have been newly established and three
companies have been acquired. Conversely, a total of nine companies have been
deconsolidated since 1 October 2016, with five of these companies deconsolidated
due to liquidation, three companies due to a merger, and one due to sale.
Following the acquisition of two joint ventures and the merger of one joint
venture, the number of joint ventures and associates measured at equity
increased by one company in total compared to 30 September 2016.
Acquisitions - Divestments - Discontinued operations
Acquisitions
In the first half of 2016 / 17, 18 travel agencies were acquired by the purchase
of trade and assets. In addition, 99.99 % of the shares in Transat France S.A.,
Ivry-sur-Seine, France (Transat), a french tour operator, were acquired on
31 October 2016. The acquisition aim is to increase market presence in France.
The acquisition included majority stakes in subsidiary companies Transat
Développement SAS, Ivry-sur-Seine, France, and Tourgreece Tourism Enterprise
A.E., Athens, Greece. The considerations for all acquisitions by TUI Group
exclusively consisted of payments, totalling EUR 64.0 m for Transat and EUR 3.9
m for the travel agencies.
The difference arising between the considerations and the remeasured acquired
net assets as at the acquisition date was carried as provisional goodwill of EUR
89.1 m, thereof EUR 86.0 m for Transat. This goodwill essentially constitutes
part of the future synergy, earnings and cost savings potential.

Based on the information available, it was not possible to finalise measurement
of several components of the acquired assets and liabilities of the acquisition
of Transat, especially intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, at
the balance sheet date. This purchase allocation will be completed within the
12-month period permitted under IFRS 3.
In the period from November 2016 until March 2017, Transat generated a turnover
of EUR 139.6 m. Due to the seasonal swing, the profit contribution amounts to
EUR - 6.0 m. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 October 2016, consolidated
pro-forma revenue of the TUI Group would have been EUR 26.1 m higher and profit
after tax would have been EUR 1.2 m lower.
No acquisitions were effected after the balance sheet date.
In the present interim financial statements, the purchase price allocations of
the 15 travel agencies acquired in the first half of financial year 2015 / 16
were finalised without a material effect on the consolidated statement of
financial position within the 12-month period stipulated by IFRS 3.
Divestments
The reclassification of the Specialist Group to assets held for sale is
explained in the 'Discontinued Operations' section. The effects of the other
divestments on the TUI Group's net assets, financial position and results of
operations were immaterial.
Discontinued operations
The result from discontinued operations for the reporting period shown in the
consolidated income statement almost exclusively comprises the result of the
Specialist Group. The only other item included is subsequent expenses of EUR 1.2
m for the sale of the Hotelbeds Group.
In the prior year, the result from discontinued operations comprised the result
of Hotelbeds Group, sold on 12 September 2016, and LateRooms Group, sold on 6
October 2015. After reclassification to Assets held for sale in the first half
of 2015 / 16, the Group of companies of the Hotelbeds Group sold was readjusted
so that the result from the discontinued operation Hotelbeds Group reported for
the first half of the prior year changed slightly with retrospective effect.
In the prior year, TUI AG had decided to sell Specialist Group as there was
limited linkage to TUI Group's remaining business and thus very little potential
for integration into the Group's strategy. In the reporting period, Specialist
Group only comprises the tour operators combined under the Travelopia brand,
offering in particular expedition travel, luxury tours, sporting events, student
travel and sailing trips. The language schools business was sold in financial
year 2015 / 16.
In February 2017, TUI AG concluded an agreement with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts &
Co. L.P. on the sale of Travelopia. The closing of the transaction is expected
for the third quarter of the financial year following regulatory approvals. In
the second quarter of 2016 / 17, measurement of the discontinued operation at
the agreed purchase price less costs to sell resulted in an impairment of EUR
47.4 m, shown as goodwill impairment in the income statement of the Specialist
Group.
The result from this discontinued operation is reported separately from the
income and expenses of continuing operations in the consolidated income
statement, shown in a separate line as 'Result from discontinued operations'.
The consolidated income statement of the prior year was restated accordingly.

The decline in turnover by Specialist Group is partly driven by foreign exchange
effects. Turnover also decreased due to the sale of the language schools
business in the prior year as well as the rugby and cricket world cups held in
financial year 2015 / 16. A further reason for the year-on-year decline in
turnover was the removal of Travelopia from TUI Group's distribution network,
which went hand in hand with a corresponding decrease in the cost of sales.
Moreover, the suspension of depreciation / amortisation, effected since 30
September 2016 in line with IFRS 5, caused an overall improvement in earnings.
The assets and liabilities are shown separately in the consolidated statement of
financial position under 'Assets held for sale' and 'Liabilities related to

Notes to the consolidated income statement
TUI Group's results reflect the significant seasonal swing in tourism between
the Winter and Summer travel months. The Group seeks to counteract the seasonal
swing through a broad range of holiday offerings in the Summer and Winter season
and its presence in different travel markets worldwide with varying annual
cycles. The consolidated income statement reflects the seasonality of the
tourism business, with the consequence that the result generated in the period
from October to March is negative. Due to the seasonality of the business, a
comparison of the first half year's results with the full-year results is not
meaningful.
(1) Turnover
The turnover growth versus the first half of the prior year is driven by higher
customer volume, an increase in long-haul bookings, higher selling prices in the
UK, the acquisition of Transat's French tour operator business and higher
average selling prices in the Hotels & Resorts segment. In addition, the
expansion in Thomson Cruises with the first winter season of the cruise ship TUI
Discovery led to an increase in turnover.
(2) Cost of sales and administrative expenses
Cost of sales represents the expenses incurred to deliver tourism services. In
addition to the expenses for staff costs, depreciation, amortisation, rental and
leasing, they include all costs incurred by the Group in connection with the
provision and delivery of airline services, hotel accommodation and cruises as
well as distribution costs.
Administrative expenses comprise all expenses incurred in connection with the
performance of the administrative functions and break down as follows:

Rental and leasing expenses 383.3 400.8
thereof cost of sales 352.4 372.4
thereof administrative expenses 30.9 28.4
The year-on-year decline in rental and leasing expenses is primarily driven by
foreign exchange effects and above all relates to leasing expenses for aircraft.

costs and benefits
thereof cost of sales 153.8 143.8
thereof administrative expenses 60.4 60.2
Total 1,114.3 1,079.1
The year-on-year increase in administrative expenses for wages and salaries in
the first half year mainly results from one-off expenses for the integration of
the French TUI tour operator following the acquisition of Transat. The rise in
staff costs in operating areas, in particular in airlines and hotels, was almost
fully offset by an opposite effect driven by foreign exchange effects.

In the first half year 2015 / 16, other income mainly included proceeds from the
sale of a Riu Group hotel, a joint venture and a cruise ship as well as from the
sale of land.
(4) Financial result
The improvement of the financial result from EUR - 181.2 m in the first half of
the prior year to EUR - 44.1 m in the current financial year mainly results from
the expenses relating to the measurement of the investment in Hapag-Lloyd AG
recognised in the prior year. The measurement with the stock market price of the
Hapag-Lloyd share as at 31 March 2016 led to the recognition of an impairment
amounting to EUR 100.3 m within financial expenses in the prior year. In the
financial year under review, the increase in the value from the rise in the
Hapag-Lloyd share price as at 31 March 2017 and the resulting increase in the
fair value was carried in equity outside profit and loss in line with IAS 39.
For further details, please refer to Note 10 on Financial assets available for
sale.
The interest result reduced from EUR - 81.7 m in the first half of the prior
year to EUR - 61.2 m in the current reporting period and this also contributed
to the improvement of the financial result.

The year-on-year increase in income from joint ventures and associates in the
Northern Region segment is mainly
attributable to the positive trading of the Canadian tour operator Sunwing.
The increase in income from joint ventures in the Hotels & Resorts segment
mainly results from the improvement in the operating performance of Riu hotels.
(6) Income taxes
The tax income arising in the reporting period is partly driven by the
seasonality of the tourism business.
Due to a judgment from the fiscal court Münster on 4 February 2016, a
reassessment of the trade tax risk for the purchase of hotel accomodation was
undertaken, resulting in a separately recognised tax expense of EUR 36.5 m in
the first half of 2015 / 16.

Notes to the financial position of the TUI Group
(8) Goodwill
The increase in goodwill is mainly attributable to the preliminary goodwill in
connection with the acquisition of Transat France S.A. of EUR 86.0 m. For
further details, please refer to the explanations in the section on
'Acquisitions'.
(9) Property, plant and equipment
In the first half of 2016 / 17, the cruise ship TUI Discovery 2 was acquired for
a purchase price of EUR 209.5 m. In addition, advance payments of EUR 117.5 m
were made for future deliveries of aircraft ordered.
(10) Financial assets available for sale
Current financial assets available for sale include the remaining shares in
Hapag-Lloyd AG of EUR 395.0 m.
The shares in Hapag-Lloyd AG are traded in the regulated market (Prime Standard)
of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The measurement of the stake at the closing
rate of the Hapag-Lloyd share in the Xetra main market of EUR 27.5 per share
resulted in a fair value of EUR 395.0 m (Level 1 measurement). The increase in
the fair value compared to 30 September 2016 was recognised in equity outside
profit or loss.

(13) Pension provisions
Pension provisions decrease by EUR 241.5 m to EUR 1,209.4 m as against the end
of the financial year. The decline in the provisions is primarily driven by
higher capital market interest rates in the Eurozone and in the UK. The
resulting
remeasurement effects of EUR 232.7 m are carried in equity outside profit and
loss.
The plans with a surplus of fund assets, carried under trade receivables and
other assets, show revaluation losses leading to a decrease in the recognised
surplus of funded plans by EUR 9.5 m to EUR 29.1 m. These revaluation effects
are also carried in equity outside profit and loss.
(14) Financial liabilities
Non-current financial liabilities rose by EUR 358.4 m to EUR 1,861.8 m compared
to 30 September 2016. This was mainly driven by the issuance of a bond with a
carrying amount of EUR 295.3 m in October 2016. Moreover, liabilities to banks
grew by EUR 68.0 m, primarily due to the use of long-term credit lines to cover
the payments due in the touristic season.
As at 31 March 2017, current financial liabilities declined by EUR 372.1 m to
EUR 165.6 m versus 30 September 2016. The decline is mainly attributable to the
redemption of a bond with a carrying amount of EUR 306.5 m issued in September
2014.
(15) Changes in equity
Since 30 September 2016, equity decreased by EUR 403.2 m to EUR 2,845.0 m.
In the first half year 2016 / 17, TUI AG paid a dividend of EUR 0.63 per no-par
value share, EUR 368.6 m in total (previous year EUR 327.0 m), to its
shareholders. In the first half of 2016 / 17, the shares of non-controlling
shareholders decreased by EUR 0.3 m due to the payment of dividends (previous
year EUR 0.9 m).
The ongoing measurement of the awards from share option plans serviced with
shares resulted in an increase in equity of EUR 0.5 m in the current financial
year.
In the first half year 2015 / 16, the issuance of employee shares gave rise to
181,280 shares in TUI AG or subscribed capital worth EUR 0.5 m and capital
reserves of EUR 2.5 m, respectively. In the reporting period, the employee share
programme was replaced by equity-settled share-based payments, which will result
in changes in TUI AG's equity in the second half year for the first time.
Moreover, an employee benefit trust of TUI Travel Limited acquired shares in TUI
AG in the first half of 2016 / 17 in order to use them for share option plans.
As the transaction constitutes an acquisition of own shares the purchase cost is
eliminated against revenue reserves, reducing equity by EUR 21.8 m. Overall, own
shares remained basically unchanged due to the issuance of shares in the
framework of the share option plans. The employee benefit trust now holds
2,650,671 shares in TUI AG.
The Group loss in the first half of the year is attributable to the seasonality
of the tourism business.
The changes in financial instruments available for sale of EUR 131.9 m, carried
outside profit and loss, comprise the value increase from a rise in
Hapag-Lloyd's share price in the first half of 2016 / 17. More detailed
information on the increase in fair value is presented in the section on
'Financial instruments available for sale.'
The proportion of gains and losses from hedging instruments used as effective
hedges of future cash flows worth EUR - 50.3 m (pre-tax) is carried under other
comprehensive income in equity outside profit and loss.
The revaluation of pension obligations (in particular actuarial gains and
losses) is also carried under other comprehensive income in equity outside
profit and loss.

Due to the short remaining terms of cash and cash equivalents, current trade
receivables and other assets, current trade payables and other liabilities, the
carrying amounts are taken as realistic estimates of the fair values.
The fair values of non-current trade receivables and other assets correspond to
the present values of the cash flows associated with the assets, taking account
of current interest parameters which reflect market- and counterparty-related
changes in terms and expectations. There are no financial investments held to
maturity.
Financial instruments classified as 'Financial assets available for sale'
include an amount of EUR 43.9 m (previous year EUR 44.4 m) for interests in
partnerships and corporations for which no active market exists. The fair values
of these non-listed interests cannot be calculated by means of a measurement
model since their future cash flows cannot be reliably determined. The
investments are carried at cost. In the reporting period, and also as at 30
September 2016, there were no major disposals of interests in partnerships or
corporations measured at cost. TUI does not intend to sell or derecognise the
interest in these partnerships or corporations in the near future.

Fair value measurement
The following table presents the fair values of the recurring, non-recurring and
other financial instruments recognised at fair value in accordance with the
underlying measurement levels. The individual levels have been defined as
follows in line with the input factors:
- Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
- Level 2: input factors for the measurement are quoted market price other than
those mentioned in Level 1, directly (as market price quotation) or indirectly
(derivable from market price quotation) observable in the market for the asset
or liability.
- Level 3: input factors for the measurement of the asset or liability are based
on non-observable market data.

At the end of every reporting period, TUI Group checks whether there are any
reasons for reclassification to or from one of the measurement levels. Financial
assets and financial liabilities are generally transferred out of Level 1 into
Level 2 if the liquidity and trading activity no longer indicate an active
market. The opposite situation applies to potential transfers out of Level 2
into Level 1. In the reporting period, there were no transfers between Level 1
and Level 2.
In the reporting period, there were also no transfers out of or in Level 3.
Reclassifications from Level 3 to Level 2 or Level 1 are effected if observable
market price quotations become available for the asset or liability concerned.
TUI Group records transfers to and out of Level 3 as at the date of the
obligating event or occasion triggering the transfer.
Level 1 financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments for which an active market is available
is based on the market price quotation at the balance sheet date. An active
market exists if price quotations are easily and regularly available from a
stock exchange, traders, brokers, price service providers or regulatory
authorities, and if these prices represent actual and regular market
transactions between independent business partners. These financial instruments
are categorised within Level 1. The fair values correspond to the nominal values
multiplied by the price quotations at the balance sheet date. Level 1 financial
instruments primarily comprise shares in listed companies classified as
available for sale and bonds issued in the category 'Financial liabilities
measured at amortised cost'.
Level 2 financial instruments
The fair values of financial instruments not traded in an active market, e. g.
over the counter derivatives (OTC), are
determined by means of valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise
the use of observable market data and minimise the use of Group-specific
assumptions. If all essential input factors for the determination of the fair
value of an instrument are observable, the instrument is categorised within
Level 2.
If one or several of the essential input factors are not based on observable
market data, the instrument is categorised within Level 3.
The specific valuation techniques used for the measurement of financial
instruments are:
- For over the counter bonds, liabilities to banks, promissory notes and other
non-current financial liabilities, the fair value is determined as the present
value of future cash flows, taking account of observable yield curves and the
respective credit spread, which depends on the credit rating.
- For over the counter derivatives, the fair value is determined by means of
appropriate calculation methods, e. g. by discounting the expected future cash
flows. The forward prices of forward transactions are based on the spot or cash
prices, taking account of forward premiums and discounts. The calculation of the
fair values of foreign exchange options and interest derivatives is based on the
Black & Scholes model and the Turnbull & Wakeman model for fuel hedge options.
The fair values determined on the basis of the Group's own systems are regularly
compared with fair value confirmations of the external counterparties.
- Other valuation techniques, e. g. discounting future cash flows, are used for
the measurement of the fair values of other financial instruments.
Level 3 financial instruments

The additions to Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy relate to the 15.38 % stake
in peakwork AG, which was added in
October 2016.
Contingent liabilities
As at 31 March 2017, contingent liabilities amount to EUR 291.3 m (as at 30
September 2016 EUR 326.1 m). Contingent liabilities are reported at an amount
representing the best estimate of the potential expenditure that would be
required to meet the potential obligation as at the balance sheet date.
Contingent liabilities as at 31 March 2017 are principally
attributable to the granting of guarantees for the benefit of Hapag-Lloyd AG and
TUI Cruises GmbH for collateralised ship financing schemes. The year-on-year
decline is driven by scheduled repayments and the return of guarantees.

Due to offsetting effects, capital commitments for investments rose by EUR 2.8 m
as at 31 March 17 compared to 30 September 2016. Increases in the period are
largely driven by commitments with respect to aircraft. This includes new order
commitments for aircraft and an increase resulting from foreign exchange effects
from liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Off-setting this
increase is a significant reduction in capital commitments for ships as a result
of the delivery of the TUI Discovery 2.
Notes to the Group's cash flow statement
Based on the after-tax Group result, the cash flow from operating activities is
determined using the indirect method. The cash flow statement shows the
continuing and discontinued operations. In the reporting period, cash and cash
equivalents declined by EUR 1,466.2 m to EUR 937.4 m, including an amount of EUR
314.1 m carried as assets held for sale.
In the reporting period, the outflow of cash from operating activities amounted
to EUR 278.5 m (previous year EUR 565.3 m).
The outflow of cash from investing activities totals EUR 695.1 m (previous year
EUR 243.4 m). It comprises a cash outflow for investments in property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets of EUR 603.6 m. The Group also recorded an
inflow of EUR 19.8 m from the sale of property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets. The cash flow from investing activities also includes an
outflow of EUR 103.1 m in connection with the acquisition of consolidated
companies and for acquisitions of and a capital increase in joint ventures as
well as an investment in a tourism technology provider. The sale of joint
ventures in prior years resulted in an inflow of EUR 11.7 m. Part of the
expenses incurred in connection with the disposal of the Hotelbeds Group in the
prior year resulted in cash outflows in the first half of the current financial
year (EUR 20.5 m). A further EUR 4.5 m had already resulted in cash outflows
prior to the disposal of the Specialist Group. The sale of shares in Hapag-Lloyd
Aktiengesellschaft resulted in an inflow of EUR 5.1 m in the reporting period.
The outflow of cash from financing activities totalled EUR 478.3 m (previous
year inflow of EUR 199.6 m). At the reporting date, an amount of EUR 93.5 m was
drawn from the external revolving credit line to manage the seasonality of cash
flows and the Group's liquidity. The issuance of a bond resulted in an inflow of
EUR 294.9 m for TUI AG in October 2016. Other TUI Group companies took out
further financial liabilities worth EUR 4.9 m. In September 2014, TUI AG had
issued an unsecured bond maturing on 1 October 2019. This bond was redeemed as
at 18 November 2016. An amount of EUR 306.8 m was spent to redeem the bond,
while a further cash outflow of EUR 134.3 m was used to redeem other financial
liabilities,
including EUR 51.5 m for finance lease liabilities. An outflow of cash of EUR
38.4 m relates to interest payments, while an outflow of cash of EUR 368.6 m
resulted from dividends paid to TUI AG shareholders and EUR 1.4 m for dividends
paid to minority shareholders. The employee benefit trust of TUI Travel Ltd.
purchased shares in TUI AG worth EUR 21.8 m in order to use them for its share
option plans.
Cash and cash equivalents also decreased by EUR 14.3 m due to changes in
exchange rates (previous year increase of EUR 41.2 m).
As at 31 March 2017, cash and cash equivalents worth EUR 175.1 m were subject to
restrictions (previous year EUR 179.2 m). This amount included EUR 116.3 m for
cash collateral deposited with a Belgian subsidiary by Belgian tax authorities
in
financial year 2012 / 13 in relation to a long-standing litigation over VAT
refunds for the period from 2001 to 2011 without admission of guilt, the purpose
being to suspend the accrual of interest for both parties. In order to
collateralise a potential repayment, the Belgian government was granted a bank
guarantee. Due to the bank guarantee, TUI's ability to dispose of the cash and
cash equivalents has been restricted. The remaining restrictions of EUR 58.8 m
relate to cash and cash equivalents to be deposited due to legal or regulatory
requirements.
Segment indicators
In the second quarter of 2016 / 17, the hotel operating company Blue Diamond
Hotels and Resorts Inc., St. Michael, Barbados, previously carried in the
Northern Region segment, was integrated in the hotel business and is therefore
now reported within the Hotels & Resorts segment. Moreover, the UK cruise
business Thomson Cruises, which was also previously reported within the Northern
Region segment, was transferred to the Cruises segment. Due to the planned
disposal of the Specialist Group segment in financial year 2016 / 17, this
segment is carried as a discontinued operation. The prior year's segment
reporting was restated accordingly.

EBITA. The TUI Group defines EBITA as earnings before interest, income taxes and
goodwill impairment. EBITA includes amortisation of other intangible assets.
EBITA does not include measurement effects from interest hedges and measurement
effects from container shipping, as the stake in Hapag-Lloyd AG is a financial
investment and not an operating investment from TUI AG's perspective.

Review Report
To TUI AG, Berlin / Germany and Hanover / Germany
We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements -
comprising the statement of financial position, the income statement, the
condensed statement of comprehensive income, the condensed statement of cash
flows, the condensed statement of changes in equity as well as selected
explanatory notes to the financial statements - and the interim group management
report for the period from 1 October 2016 until 31 March 2017 of TUI AG, which
are components of the half-year financial report under § 37w WpHG
(Wertpapierhandelsgesetz: German Securities Trading Act).
Review Report on the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Management Board's Responsibility for the Condensed Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements
The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in
accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by
the EU is the responsibility of the entity's Management Board. The Management
Board is also responsible for such internal control as the Management Board
determines is necessary to enable the preparation of condensed interim
consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Pracitioner's Responsibility for the Review of the Condensed Interim
Consolidated
Financial Statements
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the condensed interim
consolidated financial statements based on our review. We conducted our review
in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of
financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW) as
well as in supplementary compliance with the International Standard on Review
Engagements 'Engagements to Review Historical Financial Statements' (ISRE 2400
(revised)). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review in
compliance with professional standards such that we can preclude through
critical evaluation, with limited assurance, that the condensed interim
consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in all material
respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting
as adopted by the EU.
A review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in
accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of
financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW) as
well as in supplementary compliance with ISRE 2400 (revised) is a limited
assurance engagement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of personnel of
the entity and analytical procedures and therefore does not provide the
assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with
our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot
issue an auditor's report.
Conclusion on the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to
presume that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not
been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable
to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU.
