The revenue growth for 6 months of 2013 is 22.5% compared to the same period last year, due to the taking over the functions of a supplier of last resort in the Bryansk, Orel and Kursk regions from February 1, 2013 and in the Tver region from May 1, 2013.

The main contribution to the change in the financial results was made by the provisions for securing receivables in the amount of 4.0 billion rubles, created in accordance with the requirements of the legislation.
