Higher fuel prices in France negatively impacted light vehicle traffic, contrasting with positive traffic growth across US and German assets.
The French government proposed a draft budget bill that would create an incremental cost of approximately €210 million for the APRR Group if applied in 2025.
The proposed bill includes tax rate increases on long-distance transport infrastructure alongside a temporary supplemental tax extension.
Following the announcement, the Atlas Arteria share price was down at $3.68.
Atlas Arteria manages global toll road networks, including the APRR in France, the Warnow Tunnel in Germany, and the Chicago Skyway in the United States.
