Financial Indicators

Operating revenue, RUB billion

Increases in traffic volumes, indexation and the application of marketing strategies, along with growth in the sales of commodities on trains and the upkeep and repair of customers’ rolling stock, are the key factors contributing to the year‑over‑year increase in income from core activities.


EBITDA and EBITDA margin, including subsidies

The year‑on‑year improvement in EBITDA and EBITDA margin is driven by revenue growth due to higher passenger‑km travelled in 2023.


Total debt to revenue and EBITDA ratio

In 2023, there was a drop in debt ratios due to elevated traffic levels and subsequently higher EBITDA.
