However, <b>if to operate with the total numbers<\/b> in KSE database, about 34.1% of foreign companies have already announced their withdrawal from the Russian market or suspended their activity, but another 54.9% are still remaining in the country and only 11.0% made a complete exit.\u2074<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, it is difficult not to overestimate the impact on the Russian economy of 440 companies that completely left the country, since in 2021 they employed 38.9% of the personnel employed in foreign companies, the companies owned about 24.6% of the assets, had 27.1% of capital invested by foreign companies, and in 2021 they generated revenue of $103.6 billion or 32.4% of total revenue and paid ~$5.9 billion of taxes or 23.2% of total taxes paid by the companies observed.

At the same time, a bit different picture is for those who are still <b>staying <\/b>&#8211; 47% of companies represent 42.7% of revenue received in Russia. 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). Also, migration of statuses in June 2024 made its effect as well as adding quite a lot of new companies in July 2024.<\/p>\n<p>KSE Institute has also collected and analyzed data on revenue, capital, assets and net income (profit or loss) <b>in 2022<\/b> for ~1562 companies (about 50 companies the data of which we have collected previously have not provided their reporting, we also added revenue data for about 30 banks) and provides below the detailed analysis.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kse-ua-prod-media.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/08122807\/rf_06_11_2024_eng6.png\" alt=\"RF_06_11_2024_ENG6\"><\/figure>\n<p>As you can see from the charts above, companies which <b>fully exited<\/b> Russia were able to generate 3.6% less of revenue in 2022 (28.8% from total volume) than in 2021 (32.4% 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 (-8.7%) revenue in 2022 (16.3% from total volume) than in 2021 (25.0% from total volume). At the same time, <b>staying <\/b>companies were able to generate much (+12.2%) more revenue in 2022 (54.9% from total volume) than in 2021 (42.7% from total volume). So the key conclusion is that money matters for those companies who are still tied with its local business in Russia and they were even able to gain more.<\/p>\n<p>Summarizing the results of 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 ($343.4bn\u2075\u00a0in 2022 vs $343.8bn in 2021) and would even probably increase if the remaining reporting for ~70-80 companies could be obtained (until companies decide not to disclose it).

Companies from &#8220;unfriendly countries&#8221; (a term coined by the Russian Federation to describe countries that joined the international sanctions policy against the Russian Federation in response to its invasion of Ukraine) are much more likely to exit.<\/p>\n<p>Here are also the breakdowns by countries and by industries of the companies which already exited:<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kse-ua-prod-media.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/08122813\/rf_06_11_2024_eng12.png\" alt=\"RF_06_11_2024_ENG12\"><\/figure>\n<p>So, as of the end of October 2024, companies from <b>37 countries<\/b> and <b>43 industries<\/b> have already exited showing their true reaction to the war started by Russia and its not provoked aggression against Ukraine. Most of the companies were headquartered in the USA, Germany, Finland, Great Britain, France and Sweden and operated in the \u201cAutomotive\u201d, \u201cElectronics\u201d, \u201cConsumer goods and closing\u201d, \u201cEnergy, oil and gas\u201d, \u201cFinance and payments\u201d, \u201cConstruction &amp; Architecture\u201d and \u201cIndustrial equipment\u201d industries.<\/p>\n<p>For a more accurate explanation of the behavior of companies, it is necessary to take into account several factors at the same time. According to our analysis, companies in the technological and communication sector are most prone to exit (as opposed to those who remain in the Russian Federation). Partially due to the fact that they have fewer physical assets in the Russian Federation than in the production sectors. Companies that produce products for the daily consumption of the population in the Russian Federation are less likely to leave (this is one of their key explanations why they do not leave). Pharmaceutical companies that explain their decisions by concern for public health tend to be the \u201cstaying\u201d companies.<\/p>\n<p>Companies with larger local revenue and public companies are also inclined to leave the market: presumably, large multinational corporations are more responsible for their reputation and respond to investors&#8217; requests. In addition, it is likely that the exit of the largest multinationals from the Russian Federation is not as painful for them for global business as it is for smaller companies, for which the share of the Russian market can be significant.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the list of \u201cexiters\u201d that we were able to identify recently: <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/abloy-llc\"><b>Abloy LLC<\/b><\/a> (liquidation), <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/ishida\"><b>Ishida<\/b><\/a> (liquidation), <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/kongsberg-maritime\"><b>Kongsberg Maritime<\/b><\/a> (liquidation), <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/moncler\"><b>Moncler<\/b><\/a> (liquidation) and <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/lindstrom-group\"><b>Lindstr\u00f6m Group<\/b><\/a> (sale was missed earlier) and we decided to mark <a href=\"https:\/\/leave-russia.org\/fortum\"><b>Fortum<\/b><\/a> as \u201cexited\u201d as it was seized before and there is lack of company&#8217;s possibility to get back their assets in Russia.
