Planned revenue from electric energy transmission within the adjusted Business plan for 2014 is by 1.6% higher than actual in 2013, due to the increase in the average tariff for the transmission of electric energy, based on resolutions approved by regional energy commissions. As part of the adoption and execution by IDGC of Centre’s branches of the functions of a supplier of last resort the adjusted Business plan for 2014 provides for revenue from the resale of electric energy and power in the amount of 14.1 bln RUB, which is by 11.9% less than the fact of 2013. The main cause of the indicator decline is the "transfer" of the functions of a supplier of last resort from the branches of the Company to winners of tenders held by the Ministry of Energy of Russia.

Cost of sales for 2014 is planned at 3.8% higher than in 2013, but below the level of inflation, which, according to the Forecast of socio-economic development of the Russian Federation, this year will be 5.6%. The main factors positively affecting the forecast of costs of the company are: lower operating costs per unit of production assets by 5% to the base in 2012; reducing costs for the purchase of goods (works, services) per unit of production by 10% to the base of 2010; decreasing investment costs by 10% against the level of 2012.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization are projected at 30% higher than the actual values in 2013. Net income of the company according to the Business plan will reach 2.7 bln RUB, and the profit from electricity transmission services is expected to reach 1.6 bln RUB.

Predicted value of joint operation productive supply according to the adjusted Business plan for 2014 is 54.7 billion kWh, which is 0.9% lower than the fact for 2013. The main reason for the productive supply decline against the fact for 2013 is a reduction in consumption due to the termination of "last mile" contracts. In 2014 IDGC of Centre planned increase in losses regarding the fact in 2013 by 0.32%. The increase in the relative amount of losses is associated with decreased supply to the grid in 2014.

The key factors taken into account in the adjustment of the Investment Program are: limiting the growth of rates starting from 2014; revision of the value of investment projects based on targets for reduction of specific investment costs by 30% against the level of 2012 by 2017 (in rubles per physical unit (km, MVA); the fact of the Investment program implementation by the end of 2013.
