The conclusion could be that smaller companies with lower revenue prefer to stay and those who have higher revenue are more eager to wait, limiting their investments as an excuse (at the same time they continue to earn and reinvest their local profit).<\/p>\n<p>KSE Institute has already collected and analyzed data on revenue, capital, assets and net income (profit or loss) <b>in 2022<\/b> for ~1370 companies (about 100 companies the data of which we have collected previously have not provided their reporting) and provides below the detailed analysis, more details will be provided further, once we have complete information.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kse-ua-prod-media.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/08120820\/rf_17_07_2023_eng6.png\" alt=\"RF_17_07_2023_ENG6\"><\/figure>\n<p>As you can see from the charts above, companies which <b>fully exited<\/b> Russia were able to generate 2.9% less of revenue in 2022 (17.5% from total volume) than in 2021 (20.4% from total volume, which is clear as most of them left the country before the year-end). <b>Leaving companies<\/b> also generated much less (-6.1%) revenue in 2022 (21.4% from total volume) than in 2021 (27.5% from total volume). Also, the group of the companies with KSE status \u201c<b>leave<\/b>\u201d is the only one which became loss-making in terms of net income received in 2022. At the same time, <b>staying <\/b>companies were able to generate much (+11.7%) more revenue in 2022 (43.8% from total volume) than in 2021 (32.1% from total volume).

So the key conclusion is that money matters for those companies who are still tied with its local business in Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Summarizing the first results of new data received for 2022 and comparing it with 2021 we can see the positive trends in terms of significant revenue and capital decline. Only assets have almost not changed ($277.1bn in 2022 vs $289.3bn in 2021) and will probably even increase once we receive remaining reporting for ~90-100 companies (until companies decide not to disclose it).

Renault retained the right to buy its assets back within six years.<\/p>\n<p>The former McDonald\u2019s chain, now named \u201cVkusno i Tochka\u201d has also been losing money since the pullout of its American stakeholder. The business was bought by McDonald\u2019s franchise partners in Siberia Alexander Govor and Yury Kushner, both former owners of the coal mining complex Yuzhkuzbassugol. These assets were also sold for next to nothing, but McDonald\u2019s retained the right to a buy-back. McDonald\u2019s estimated its losses from leaving Russia at $1.2 billion.

However, despite the absence of a direct ban on the supply of medicines and equipment, it is possible to trace the decrease in the volume of supplies of medicines from Western countries to the Russian market. As a countermeasure, the Government of Russia developed the State Strategy for the Development of the Pharmaceutical and Medical Industry until 2020.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, from 2020 to 2022, there is a steady increase in the import of medicinal products. If in 2020 medical products were imported to Russia in the amount of 10.6 billion US dollars, then in 2021 \u2013 by 13.2 billion US dollars, and in 2022 by 15.2 billion US dollars\u2078.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, Western countries did not prohibit Western manufacturers from supplying medical equipment to Russia. Thus, by 2022, the Russian medical equipment market could be compared with the German market, which is one of the largest in the world, in terms of the volume of consumption of certain types of medical products. For a number of foreign manufacturers, supplies to the Russian market accounted for a significant share of turnover.<\/p>\n<p>After the start of the full-scale Russian-Ukrainian war in 2022, Western sanctions launched processes of structural changes in many branches of Russian industry.<\/p>\n<p>Since February 2022, the Russian health care system, despite the fact that the sanctions of Western countries did not directly affect it, faced a number of difficulties in the purchase and supply of necessary materials, medical products and equipment, since the majority of the medical component of the Russian market is represented by products of foreign manufacturers. At the same time, prices for a number of foreign medicines have risen, or even stopped their supply altogether, the emigration of Russian medical specialists and problems with import substitution of Western medical equipment and components, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Difficulties with logistics appeared, the delivery time of medical products increased, and many Russian medical products began to be produced from imported raw materials, which already provoked an increase in the corresponding prices. Russian doctors faced the suspension of membership in international organizations, the problems of exchanging experience, and communication with foreign specialists.<\/p>\n<p>Another challenge for Russian medicine was the influx of wounded Russian soldiers to hospitals on the territory of Russia and in the territories occupied by Russia.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>For reference:<\/b> Russia is struggling with a military health crisis after losing an average of about 400 people a day for 17 months. It is likely that up to 50% of Russian combat casualties could have been prevented by providing proper first aid. Russia&#8217;s military losses have undermined the normal provision of some Russian civilian medical services, especially in border regions near Ukraine\u2079<\/i><i>.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Another issue that hit clinical medicine quite hard is the suspension of foreign international clinical research in Russia. At this time, in Russia, access to testing, to the study of new molecules, new medical products is actually closed, which in the future may greatly affect the quality of the provided medical services. Before the war, Russian manufacturers accounted for about 60% of the medical products that were on the Russian pharmaceutical market. 80% of active medical substances in Russia are imported by foreign and Russian pharmaceutical companies from countries that are not &#8220;friendly&#8221; to Russia, and after appropriate registration and packaging in Russia, these medical products are considered Russian. Also, 90% of Russian medical firms use Western equipment and need Western support at least in order to properly package the dosed medicine. Currently, very serious changes are taking place in this market. Supplies from the countries of Western Europe, the USA, and Switzerland are being replaced by supplies from India and China. But not all medical products can be replaced by Russian ones or imports from China, India and Turkey.<\/p>\n<p>Another challenge for the Russian pharmaceutical market was the buying\/selling ratio of the Russian ruble to the US dollar in 2022. The exchange rate of the US dollar affects the price of foreign and Russian medical products, in particular, Russian medical products, since substances used by Russian pharmaceutical companies are mostly purchased in Western Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Considering this, Russian pharmaceutical manufacturers are looking for new options for relevant purchases in China, India, Turkey and other countries. They do not have to wait for the redistribution of the market in favor of the domestic segment due to logistical problems. The main suppliers of raw materials for the manufacture of medical preparations are India and China. Also, most of the medical equipment and components are products of European and American companies. Even without a direct ban on the use of these technologies on the territory of Russia, the volatility of the ruble exchange rate will lead to an increase in the price of the use of these technologies, and, as a result, medicine will be less and less accessible to ordinary citizens of the country.<\/p>\n<p>Sanction measures related to the military and political events in Ukraine did not directly affect the medical supply of the Russian population, but were of an indirect nature. The main task that the participants of the Russian market had to solve was logistical. At first glance, the Russian pharmaceutical industry was not affected by Western sanctions &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/leaving-companies?flt%5B108%5D%5Beq%5D%5B%5D=53955\"> only 21 pharmaceutical companies announced their exit or suspension of operations from the Russian market in 2022<\/a>, including such global giants as the American companies<a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/bristol-myers-squibb\"> Bristol Myers Squibb<\/a> and<a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/eli-lilly\"> Eli Lilly<\/a>, Japanese company<a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/takeda\"> Takeda<\/a>, Swiss<a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/sandoz\"> Sandoz<\/a> etc. At the same time, at least 139 companies continue to work on the Russian market (data from the Kyiv School of Economics as of the middle of July 2023). In 2022, they earned at least 14.3 billion US dollars in revenue (and it was almost unchanged from 14.4 billion US dollars in 2021). At the same time, a number of foreign pharmaceutical manufacturers are making great efforts to continue working with Russia.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>For reference:<\/i><\/b> <i>five global pharmaceutical companies are currently operating in Russia, which did not leave after the beginning of Russia&#8217;s large-scale invasion of the territory of Ukraine.

During the war and the introduction of Western sanctions, only some Western pharmaceutical companies decided to significantly limit their work on the Russian market. At the same time, more often than not, alternatives were found for the medical products that the Russians lost. However, the collapse of the clinical research market became a real problem. Because of it, Russia risks facing the denial of new medicines into the country. Also, during the year, the prices of medical products, the cost of which is not regulated by the State, increased significantly.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>For reference: <\/i><\/b><i>during the war, the prices of medical products in Russia, which are not controlled by the State, increased by an average of almost 18%<\/i><i><b>\u00b9<\/b><\/i>\u00b3<\/p>\n<p>It has become much more difficult for hospitals to repair and purchase foreign equipment, as well as to buy the corresponding consumables, since, in some cases, medical products are subject to sanctions regarding the ban on the export of dual-use products and, above all, the war of Russia against Ukraine is a ticking time bomb that laid under Russian hospitals, polyclinics, pharmacies, under the very future of Russia.<\/p>\n<p><b>What\u2019s new last month &#8211;

Also, we started to monitor additionally whether companies really stated any actions to exit the country (currently we observe a very small number of such companies). So far we found information only about a few companies which started selling their business in Russia. Even for most of them \u2013 it\u2019s just an intention or they just started the process of sale. Everything else is mostly the statements or some preliminary steps. The collected information is already available and systematised in the form of a newKSE\u2019s status &#8220;exited&#8221;.\u00b3 On 24 July 2022, we introduced the new status \u201cexited\u201d, which reflects the companies\u2019 actions to finalise the exit from the Russian market. The status relies on data from the Uniform State Register of Legal Entities in Russia (USRLE or EGRUL) and complementary analysis such as companies\u2019 announcements and media publications of company activities.
