Formal inclusion of some Rosneft subsidiaries in the list of entities that fall under sectoral sanctions is indicative of the ongoing illegitimate practice when the effects of political decisions are being extended to market players not influencing the decision-making.

The subsidiaries on the List are financially stable and have sufficient liquidity amount to service their debts, as well as to fulfill their contractual obligations.

Rosneft will continue to protect the interests of its shareholders by all legal means. The Company is creating an accounting system calculating losses from the application of illegitimate sanctions, without reflecting them on the Company balance. Subsequently, the amount of losses will be submitted for reimbursement in court.
