OREANDA-NEWS. On April 01, 2008 RAO "UES of Russia" has prepared its 2007 financial statements under the Russian Accounting Standards, reported the press-centre of RAO "UES of Russia".

In 2007, the net profit of the parent company, RAO "UES of Russia", amounted to RUB452,827 million. Such a significant amount of net income (comparable to that of 2006, RUB745,088 million), was due to the revaluation of investments in shares of RAO UES subsidiaries traded on the RTS and MICEX Stock Exchanges. The revaluation income is viewed as a "paper profit" without any actual cash gain.

The net income earned by the Company in 2007, without taking into account the revaluation gains, amounted to RUB28,782 million, up RUB1,351 million compared to the 2006 net income.
The revaluation has also had a material effect on the book value of the Parent Company's assets, leading to a significant growth of 35 percent to RUB1,478 trillion in 2007 from RUB1,084 trillion in 2006.
