The increase in revenue for the first six months of 2010 compared with the year-earlier period is attributable to the following factors:
higher revenue in the mobile telephony segment (+24.4% vs. the year-earlier period) due to a rise in ARPU and a 5.4% increase in the proportion of this segment in the revenue breakdown;
a 12.3% rise in revenue from the provision of datacom and telematic services (Internet access), which was attributable to an increase in the number of users and an increase in traffic;
a 7.4% increase in revenue in the local voice segment as a result of tariff indexation pursuant to a decision by the Federal Tariff Service of Russia as of January 1, 2010.
As of the end of the first half of 2010 revenue from unregulated services exceeded one half of the total amount of Uralsvyazinform’s revenue and stood at 53.4% (compared to 47.0% in the year-earlier period).
