OREANDA-NEWS. Inter RAO Group announced interim condensed consolidated financial statements prepared under the International Financial Reporting Standards for the first six months of 2015. The financial statements were reviewed by Ernst & Young.

Non-current assets reduced by 5.1 billion rubles (1.4%) to 360.0 billion rubles.

This change in non-current assets reflects the depreciation of fixed and intangible assets exceeding the capital expenditures in the reporting period and the sale of several minority ownership stakes classified as available-for-sale offset by the appreciation of the Group's shares in Nizhnevartovskaya TPP and Ekibastuzskaya TPP-2 joint ventures.

Current assets reduced by 16.5 billion rubles (7.5%) to 203.8 billion rubles.

The reduction of current assets is primarily attributable to cash repayment of ZAO Mezhregionenergostroy loan, including the amounts payable to VTB Factoring, in the amount of 17.4 billion rubles.

Equity increased by 11.9 billion rubles (3.4%) to 360.2 billion rubles.

The largest contribution to equity increase is attributable to the growth of the Group's retained earnings in the first six months of 2015.

Total liabilities decreased by 33.5 billion rubles (14.1%) to 203.7 billion rubles.

This reduction in total liabilities mostly reflects the repayment of ZAO Mezhregionenergostroy loan, and the seasonal reduction in accounts payable and consumer prepayments.

Total debt inclusive of the Group's share of the debt of joint ventures decreased by 17.7% to 96.4 billion rubles.

Total loans and borrowings of Group subsidiaries, excluding the Group's share of the debt of joint ventures, decreased by 20.5 billion rubles (19.1%) to 86.6 billion rubles due to scheduled and early repayment of certain debt items of several Group companies, as well as due to revaluation of foreign currency loans following the depreciation of Russian ruble.

The split between non-current and current debt (excluding loans and borrowings of joint ventures) was 64.6% and 35.4% as of June 30, 2015, compared to 59.9% and 40.1% as of December 31, 2014. The share of current debt decreased as we repaid the 17.4 billion ruble loan from ZAO Mezhregionenergostroy and reclassified a part of our non-current debt into current debt according to debt repayment schedule.

Loans and borrowings of joint ventures represent 9.8 billion rubles of the total debt. Of those, 9.0 billion rubles are attributable to the Group share of the debt portfolio of the joint venture Ekibastuzskaya TPP-2 used to finance its investment program.
