The main factors that influenced the indicator of consolidated revenue are the growth of the tariff for the transmission of electricity and the increase in the volume of rendered services for the transmission of electricity in comparable conditions.

Operating costs of the Company for 3 months of 2018 amounted to 22,2 bln RUB, which is 9,9% higher than the indicator for the same period in 2017. The main reason for the increase in the costs was the growth of uncontrolled costs: expenses for purchasing electricity to compensate for technological losses increased by 25,6%, expenses for third-party services for electricity transmission increased by 5,4%. Following the results of 3 months of 2018 depreciation is 2,5 bln RUB, which is 0,1 bln RUB more than the same indicator of the previous year.

Earnings before Interest, Taxation, Depreciation & Amortisation (EBITDA) is 6,0 bln RUB. Negative impact on EBITDA, as well as on the final financial result, was due to a higher growth rate of operating expenses compared to the growth rate of revenues due to circumstances beyond the control of the Company's management. The profit for the period is 1,9 bln RUB, which is lower than the same indicator of the previous year by 0,6 bln RUB.

As at 31 March 2018 IDGC of Centre's assets totalled 105,2 bln RUB (as at 31 December 2017 - 105,1 bln RUB). Net debt1 decreased to 38,2 bln RUB (as at 31 December 2017 - 40,1 bln RUB). The net debt reduction was facilitated by the Company's efforts to pay off its debt in the first quarter of 2018.
