Unipro Group publishes its unaudited financials for 9M 2022 in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Unipro PJSC demonstrated good financial results in January-September 2022. Unipro Group's revenue increased by 21.8%, as compared to the same period of 2021, and amounted to RUB 77.6 bn. EBITDA amounted to RUB 32.1 bn (+46% as compared to 9 months of 2021). Underlying net profit amounted to RUB 21.5 bn (+65.3%).

The key drivers of the financial growth in the reference period were as follows:

  • increase in electric power generation caused by the rise in energy consumption in Russia (Berezovskaya GRES was the prime contributor, with the plant's generation volumes almost tripling in the 9 months of 2022 vs. the same period in the previous year, which is also attributed to the decline in Siberian hydro power plants generation, in addition to growing consumption);
  • growth of the day ahead market price due to the increase in power consumption, gas prices indexation (by 3% since July 2021 and by 5% since July 2022) and increase of coal prices (about 20% vs. 2021);
  • payments received under the Berezovskaya GRES Power Unit No. 3 capacity supply agreement;
  • significant increase in prices at the competitive capacity selection (KOM) in 2022 as compared to the previous year (26% in Price Zone 1 and 18% in Price Zone 2).

Apart from that, positive dynamics is due to the high level of payment discipline achieved by former debtors in the North Caucasian Federal District.
