In 2Q 2022, Sistema’s consolidated revenue
amounted to RUB 213.8 billion thanks to higher revenue at key assets:
at Steppe, thanks to an increase in milk production and revenue
growth from Sugar and Grocery Trading as well as Niche Crops Trading
and new business lines; at Segezha Group, due to positive pricing
trends for key products and also in connection with the consolidation
of assets in Siberia; at Medsi , primarily thanks to the
consolidation of the results of the clinics in the Promeditsina
network in Ufa and the Dialine network in Volgograd, new clinic
openings and increased patient flows. The consolidation in Sistema’s
financial statements of Binnopharm Group’s results, from 25 June
2021, and of Etalon Group’s results, from 4 May 2022, also had an
impact on the Corporation’s revenue trends.
The Group’s adjusted OIBDA amounted to
RUB 85.8 billion in 2Q 2022 as a result of an increase in adjusted
OIBDA at Steppe, thanks to effective sales of surpluses from last
year’s harvest and improved efficiency of milk production alongside
an increase in the size of the herd, as well as higher apple sales
and the development of new business lines. The consolidation of
Binnopharm Group’s results and Etalon Group’s financial results
as well as the effect of the derecognition of Ozon’s financial
results attributable to Sistema in the Group’s consolidated
financial statements had a considerable impact on the Corporation’s
adjusted OIBDA trends. The adjusted net loss in 2Q 2022 was RUB 10.8
billon.
Group SG&A expenses rose to RUB 43.9
billion in 2Q 2022, mainly on the back of increased SG&A at MTS
and Segezha Group, as well as the consolidation of Binnopharm Group’s
and Etalon Group’s results. SG&A at MTS increased due to salary
indexation as well as recognition of a subsidised loan as income in
2Q 2021. SG&A at Segezha Group rose mainly under pressure from
logistics costs and salary indexation.
Group capex decreased to RUB 29.7 billion
in 2Q 2022, mainly due to the postponement of a number of investment
projects at portfolio companies amid heightened macroeconomic
uncertainty.
