* taking into account the volume of services for the
transmission of electricity in the territory of execution of the
functions of the electricity supplier of last resort in the
service area of JSC "Transservicenergo" in the Tver
region
** without taking into account the volumes of the "last
mile" in January - June 2018

Revenues for electricity transmission services in the first half
of 2018 showed an increase of 3,3% compared to the same period in
2017 due to an increase in the volume of rendered services for
electricity transmission in comparable conditions and an increase in
the average tariff.
The main reason for the increase in the cost of sales by 7,0% was
the growth of uncontrolled expenses included in the item "material
costs": the increase in electricity purchase costs to compensate
for losses amounted to 22.0%, and the growth in the cost of
electricity transmission services of grid companies was 4,3%.
Management costs for the first half of 2018 were reduced by 11,8%.
The EBITDA decreased by 1,3 bln RUB. The main factor that influenced
the EBITDA and the final financial result was the outstripping growth
rate of the cost of sales in comparison with the growth rate of
revenue.
The volume of electricity transmission services amounted to 23,8
billion kWh with a slight increase compared to the previous year in
comparable conditions. The largest increase in the volume of services
for electricity transmission was recorded in the Voronezh and
Smolensk regions. When reducing the indicators to comparable
conditions, the level of energy losses decreased by 0,36 p.p., which
is the result of the successful implementation of a set of measures
to optimize (reduce) the losses of electric energy.
The Company’s total assets as at 30 June 2018 decreased and
amounted to 117,3 bln RUB. The Company’s net assets increased by
1,2% and amounted to 58,6 bln RUB. The net debt3
significantly decreased to 38,5 bln RUB (on 31 December 2017 – 40,1
bln RUB), which was due to early repayment of part of the principal
debt during the reporting period.
