Abstract
MADRID (Standard & Poor's) May 11, 2005--Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said today that the ratings on Spain-based infrastructure operator Abertis Infraestructuras S.A. (AA-/Negative/--) were unaffected by the company's preliminary estimate of the impact of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The transition to IFRS does not change underlying cash flows. The most significant impact of the transition is the change from Spanish Accounting Standards on concessions, which mainly allowed the deferral of depreciation (a noncash item), and the capitalization of financial costs, which were already incorporated by Standard & Poor's into the cash flow calculation.
