The prospects for 2022

In terms of the outlook for 2022, we observe that in the first quarter we have a significant increase in turnover and spectacular economic results, compared to the first quarter of 2021. However, the situation prevailing today in the world with the energy crisis and geopolitical developments in Ukraine and the course of the pandemic make us particularly wary of any predictions about the future course of the 2022 financial results.

The Board proposes not to give a dividend for the fiscal year 2021.
