UMG INVESTMENTS’ FLUX AND DOLOMITE BUSINESS INCREASES ITS REVENUE BY 30.8% IN 2016

Revenue without VAT amounted to 658 million UAH in 2016 compared to 503 million UAH in 2015. The amount of tax deductions transferred by the flux and dolomite business to budgets at different levels was 212 million UAH. The majority of the deliveries were undertaken by the Novotroitskoye Ore Mining. In 2016, the company sold 3.1 million tonnes in product volume. Ukrainian metallurgical plants, including Azovstal, Ilyich Iron & Steel Works of Mariupol and ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih, are among NOM’s key customers. In addition, the company began the supply of limestone products to domestic cement, lime and glass manufacturers. “Last year, the flux and dolomite business operated in conditions of constantly changing demand for our raw materials. Having increased the production by more than a third compared to 2014, at the beginning of 2016, the Novotroitskoye Ore Mining faced a situation where orders from Ukrainian metallurgists were shifting and was dependent on foreign market trends. This prompted us to move to a more flexible production system in relation to the demand for raw materials and, at the same time, look for customers in other sectors. As a result, this has enabled the company to end the year with an increase in production and revenue”, says Sergey Onishchenko, Member of the Management Board of DFDP and NOM. The Dokuchaievsk Flux and Dolomite Plant, located within the uncontrolled territories of Donetsk region, halted its production in February 2015. The company started then to ship products that had been stored in its warehouses during prior periods. Both companies have continued to operate as before according to Ukrainian legislation. On 15 March 2017, UMG lost its control over DFDP, while NOM continues to operate as normal. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The flux and dolomite business of the UMG INVESTMENTS is the largest producer of limestone products in Ukraine. It is represented by the Dokuchaievsk Flux and Dolomite Plant (located in the uncontrolled territories) and the Novotroitskoye Ore Mining (located in the controlled territory). The SCM Group owns 50% of the assets, which have been managed by UMG since 2012. DFDP and NOM’s main customers are Ukrainian companies belonging to the metallurgical, glass, cement and other sectors. UMG INVESTMENTS is an investment company focusing on the business development and processing of raw materials. It was founded in 2006 by the SCM Group. The company comprises five businesses involved in the extraction of clay, limestone and dolomite, the reprocessing and sale of TPP by-products, rare and technical gases, and trading. The total value of UMG’s portfolio of companies is estimated at 400 billion USD.
