Key factors contributing to changes in financial performance:

- growth in the main revenue element - electricity transportation by 42.0 billion rubles on the account of tariff indexation, increased useful output, as well as changes in reimbursement procedure of losses under load, considered in OREM (Wholesale market for electricity and capacity) prices under Government Resolution of 07.07.2017 #810, by OREM members.

- growing electricity and capacity sales by 44.2 billion rubles on the account of sales volume increase due to obtaining the status of guaranteeing supplier from some subsidiaries and dependent companies.

- operating expenses growth by 71.7 billion rubles was affected mostly by non-controllable expenses dynamics:

  1. electricity purchase to compensate losses, resulting from non-regulated price growth for purchased electricity and changes in reimbursement procedure of losses under load, considered in OREM prices under Government Resolution of 07.07.2017 #810. At the same time, Company revenue grew correspondingly, because those expenses were included in electricity transportation prices;
  2. services of other territorial network organizations, on the back of growing individual tariffs;
  3. purchase of electricity for sale, resulting from guarantee supplier status obtainment, herewith these costs are compensated by growth of revenue from electricity sales;
  4. taxes and fees, affected mostly by growing property tax, on the back of gradual cancellation of allowance for electric grid facilities.

By the end of 2018, Group assets grew by 7.3%, up to 2,518.6 billion rubles (2,346.4 billion rubles as of December 31, 2017), mainly on the back of growing PP&E, resulting from new capacity commissioned under the investment program.

Pavel Grebtsov, Deputy Director General for Economic Affairs, noted, that ROSSETI Group keeps demonstrating upward dynamics of profitability and financial stability highlights, along with unquestionable reliability of electricity transportation, quality and accessibility of electricity supply for consumers.
