In Italien soll bald erstmals in Europa der russische Impfstoff Sputnik V produziert werden.
In Italien soll bald erstmals in Europa der russische Impfstoff Sputnik V produziert werden.
Von der Leyen verspricht EU-weit 100 Millionen Impfdosen pro Monat von April an.
Die erste Produktionsstätte in Europa für den russischen Impfstoff Sputnik V kommt nach Italien. Der russische Fonds RDIF, der Sputnik V vermarktet, habe eine entsprechende Vereinbarung mit der in der Schweiz ansässigen Pharma-Firma Adienne unterzeichnet, teilt die italienisch-russische Handelskammer mit. Damit sei der Weg bereitet, um das erste Sputnik-V-Werk in Europa zu errichten. Die Produktion solle im Juni beginnen.
Bis Ende des Jahres könnten in Italien zehn Millionen Dosen des Impfstoffes hergestellt werden. Eine Zulassung in der EU hat Sputnik V noch nicht, er wird aber bereits von Ungarn genutzt, und auch Tschechien plant dies.
Sputnik-Alleingang könnte Premier der Slowakei das Amt kosten
Johnson-&-Johnson-Impfstoff kurz vor der Zulassung in der EU
Der Impfstoff des US-Pharmakonzerns Johnson & Johnson könnte noch im März für die Europäischen Union (EU) zugelassen werden. Am 11. März werde die Europäische Arzneimittel-Agentur (EMA) das Vakzin für die Verwendung in der EU überprüfen, teilt EMA-Aufsichtsratschefin Christa Wirthumer-Hoche in einer Talkshow des österreichischen Senders ORF mit. "Wir erwarten eine positive Bewertung und dass die EU-Kommission die Zulassung schnell erteilt." Für eine Genehmigung des russischen Impfstoffs Sputnik V lägen hingegen noch keine ausreichenden Daten vor. "Deshalb würde ich dringend davon abraten, eine nationale Notfallzulassung zu erteilen", erklärt Wirthumer-Hoche.
Von der Leyen verspricht EU-weit 100 Millionen Impfdosen pro Monat
EU-Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen erwartet deutlich mehr Impfstoff ab kommendem Monat. "Ab April könnten sich die Mengen nach den Plänen der Hersteller noch mal verdoppeln, auch weil weitere Impfstoffe vor der Zulassung stehen", sagte sie der Stuttgarter Zeitung und den Stuttgarter Nachrichten (Montag). Sie rechne EU-weit "im zweiten Quartal im Schnitt mit rund 100 Millionen Dosen pro Monat, insgesamt 300 Millionen bis Ende Juni". Den Zeitungen zufolge würde das für Deutschland etwa 20 Millionen Dosen im Monat bedeuten, wofür deutlich höhere Impfkapazitäten nötig wären.

„GUTER IMPFSTOFF“
Stiko-Chef rechnet mit Zulassung von Sputnik V in Europa
10.03.2021, 04:11
Der Vorsitzende der Ständigen Impfkommission äußert sich positiv über den russischen Impfstoff. Dieser sei „clever gebaut“ und werde vermutlich auch in der EU zugelassen.
Der Vorsitzende der Ständigen Impfkommission (Stiko), Thomas Mertens, hat den russischen Corona-Impfstoff Sputnik V gelobt. „Das ist ein guter Impfstoff, der vermutlich auch irgendwann in der EU zugelassen wird. Die russischen Forscher sind sehr erfahren mit Impfungen. Sputnik V ist clever gebaut“, sagte Mertens der „Rheinischen Post“ vom Mittwoch.
Die Europäische Arzneimittel-Agentur EMA prüft die Zulassung von Sputnik V noch. In der EU sind bisher die Vakzine der drei Hersteller Pfizer/Biontech, Moderna und Astrazeneca zugelassen. Am 11. März will die EMA voraussichtlich auch die Zulassung des Impfstoffes des amerikanischen Herstellers Johnson&Johnson empfehlen.
„Ich hoffe, dass wir bis Herbst die Lage im Griff haben“
Mertens wollte keine Prognose abgeben, wann alle, die das wollen, in Deutschland geimpft sind. „Ungerne“, sagte er auf eine entsprechende Frage. „Ich hoffe zumindest darauf, dass wir die Lage bis Herbst so weit im Griff haben, dass der Effekt der Impfungen deutlich sichtbar wird“, sagte der Stiko-Chef. Schon jetzt sei ein massiver Abfall von schweren Erkrankungen und Todesfällen in den Alten- und Pflegeheimen festzustellen.
Mertens zeigte sich zudem „sicher“, dass es auch bald Corona-Impfstoff für Kinder geben werde. Derzeit untersuchten die Hersteller in Studien, wie ihre Mittel bei Kindern wirkten. Bei einer zeitlichen Prognose blieb der Stiko-Chef vorsichtig. „Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob das dieses Jahr noch etwas wird“, sagte er. „Vielleicht können wir Ende des Jahres mit der Impfung der Kinder beginnen.“

Sistema announces new dividend policy
Moscow, 24 May 2021 - Sistema PJSFC ("Sistema", the "Corporation" or, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, the "Group") (LSE: SSA, MOEX: AFKS), a publicly traded Russian investment company, announces the resolutions adopted at a meeting of the Board of Directors held on 24 May 2021.
The Board of Directors approved Sistema's new dividend policy for 2021-2023, which is designed to strengthen the Corporation's equity story and support shareholder returns. Under the dividend policy, the Corporation targets annual payments of no less than RUB 0.31 per ordinary share in 2021, RUB 0.41 per ordinary share in 2022 and RUB 0.52 per ordinary share in 2023. Based on the current number of ordinary shares, the recommended basic dividend will grow every year and total approximately RUB 3 billion in 2021, approximately RUB 4 billion in 2022 and approximately RUB 5 billion in 2023. In addition to the basic dividend, the Board of Directors has recommended that, starting from 2022, Sistema distributes 10% of the absolute growth in its OIBDA[1] for the previous year to shareholders, in the event that the Corporation delivers absolute OIBDA growth of more than 5% for the previous year and that the net debt/OIBDA ratio stands at no more than 3.0x as of the end of the previous year.
In line with the new dividend policy, the Board of Directors has recommended that the Annual General Meeting of shareholders of the Corporation, which will take place on 26 June 2021 with absentee voting, approve a dividend for the 2020 financial year of RUB 2,991.5 million, or RUB 0.31 per ordinary share (RUB 6.2 per GDR), and to set the dividend
record date as 15 July 2021.
Vladimir Chirakhov, President of Sistema, said:
"Over the past several years Sistema has significantly grown the value of its investment portfolio, including through the successful IPOs of Ozon and Segezha Group. Our diversified portfolio of assets has demonstrated resilience throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, both growing in value and providing stable dividend flows. These achievements give the Corporation the opportunity to propose to the shareholders an increase in the dividend of more than double the payout for 2020, as well as a new dividend policy focusing on consistent dividend growth going forward. The new dividend policy establishes an optimal balance between growth in the value of our portfolio and dividend yield, while
maintaining our commitment to financial discipline. I believe that this dividend policy will further strengthen our equity story and give shareholders the opportunity to share in the success of the Corporation."

AFK Sistema is considering the possibility of an IPO of MTS Bank in 2022
The network of clinics "Medsi", the agricultural holding "Step" and "Binnopharm group" will not hold an IPO for three months
https://translate.google.com/...;u=https://tass.ru/ekonomika/11545297
MOSCOW, June 3. / TASS /. AFK Sistema is considering an IPO (initial public offering) of MTS Bank next year, Vladimir Yevtushenkov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sistema , said in an interview with RBC .
“The company [MTS] is dynamically developing every day, for example, until recently there was no MTS Media subdivision - the online cinema KION, and now everyone in Moscow and in the regions understands that it exists. Games and entertainment need to be made more ambitious. Fintech and MTS Bank will continue to develop, which today surpasses the achievements of the same Tinkoff Bank in a number of indicators. By the way, the idea of making an IPO of this bank next year is being discussed, "he said.
MTS Bank is a universal commercial bank founded in 1993. It is one of the 50 leading banks in Russia in terms of assets. The main shareholders are Mobile TeleSystems B.V. - a subsidiary of MTS.
"Medsi", "Step" and "Binnopharm group"
Sistema's portfolio companies - the Medsi network of clinics, the Steppe agricultural holding and the Binnopharm group - will not hold an IPO for three months.
“For three months, definitely not,” Yevtushenkov said, answering a question about whether any of the three companies will conduct an IPO in a few months.
He also noted that all these companies (Medsi, Step and Binnopharm Group) are fundamentally ready in terms of reporting, corporate governance and management. "Therefore, we make a decision [about the IPO] a few months [before the potential placement]: yes or no <...>. If it works, we will bring them to the stock exchange and we have a few more pieces [companies] that will also go public through various mechanisms. We need to look for a window of opportunity when the market demand will meet our objectives. The size of the company and its expected value are also important, "Yevtushenkov explained.
He clarified that launching an IPO is not an end in itself, the company does not have the same tasks as in a planned economy, "today [we put it on the stock exchange] this, then this." Yevtushenkov also noted that everyone knows that among financial instruments, the sale of shares on the stock exchange is the most expensive money. “But I deliberately go for it. Certainly not for the sake of money, because it could have been obtained in completely different ways - through loans, bonds, and so on,” he commented.
Revenue of Medsi in 2020 increased by 12%, Steppe - by 15%, Segezha - by 18%. "Somewhere [revenue] will be more, somewhere a little less. But everywhere it will be in positive territory and definitely above the market," Yevtushenkov replied to the question of whether it will be possible to repeat this this year or is it a one-time effect.
AFK Sistema is one of the largest private financial and industrial groups in Russia.
