Revenue for electric energy transmission services following the results of 9 months of 2017 showed growth relative to the same period in 2016, which was mostly associated with an increase in the volume of services provided for electricity transmission, as well as growth in tariffs for electricity transmission services. The main reason for the increase in the cost of services was the growth of non-influenceable costs related to the purchase of electricity for compensation of losses, payment for services of FGC UES and Territorial Grid Companies, as well as growth in depreciation. EBITDA increased by 1,9 bln RUB, and EBIDTA margin was 21,9%. The final financial result for the analyzed period was influenced by the following factors: growth of tariff revenue and optimization of influenceable costs.
The volume of electricity transmission services amounted to 39,2 billion kWh, compared with the same period last year, there is a decrease of 4,6% due to the completion from 01.07.2017 of a phased reduction of cross subsidization and the transition of consumers connected to electric grids of the Unified National Power Grid, to direct contracts with PJSC "FGC UES". The level of electricity losses under comparable conditions was reduced by 0,24 p.p. and amounted to 8,99%.
The Company’s total assets as at 30 September 2017 decreased by 2,9% and amounted to 119,1 bln RUB, which is largely due to a decrease in accounts receivable for the analyzed period by 2,3 bln RUB.
