The majority shareholder of the non-governmental pension fund (NPF) Federation is looking for a buyer for its asset. The fund is interested in Sovcombank and AFK Sistema, writes Kommersant.
The owner of the "Derzhava" bank, included in the top-200, is looking for a buyer at NPF "Federation" (in the past - NPF "Captain"). "We did hold meetings with some groups interested in purchasing NPFs. And in the most advanced stage we are with one bank from the top twenty ", - confirmed the chairman of the board of directors of the Federation and the member of the board of directors of the bank Derzhava Alexey Skorodumov.
The source of the publication, close to Sovcombank, said that the bank was studying NPF Federation, although it is difficult to call negotiations advanced. "The bank has never bought pension funds and, most likely, once again does not buy," he added. Negotiations on the sale of NPF Federation are also conducted with the structures of AFK Sistema, a source close to the holding told the publication.
According to the newspaper, the shareholder of NPF "Federation" estimates the fund at 13-15% of assets. According to Skorodumov, with a conservative yield of 8% per annum, the fund can earn 1.8% of assets per year (taking into account a reward of 0.75% of the average value of the fund's net assets for the year and 15% of the investment income received by the Fund).
According to the source of the publication close to AFK Sistema, the company is considering the purchase of the fund, based on the multiplier 4-6% of assets. "At a price of more than 7%, buying NPFs is simply futile, if you do not fund its projects with funds," he adds.
"Fund prices fell by half. Now the fund is simply being asked for too much, "the source of the newspaper said, close to Sovcombank. According to him, "in theory you can buy at the proposed price, but such a deal will pay off in just ten years." However, according to Skorodumov, selling the fund for 7% of the assets is "just ridiculous."
However, according to experts, at present the pension industry is rather a market of buyers, not sellers. The last deal on NPFs working in the mandatory pension insurance system was a year and a half ago.

In the crisis of 2008-2009, the developer went under the control of VTB and later changed its name to "Hals Development". Then AFK Sistema created the company Leader-Invest, which was transferred from MGTS (it is controlled by MTS Vladimir Yevtushenkov) to the construction of former ATS sites. Now in the portfolio of "Leader-Invest" - 42 projects with a total area of 520 thousand square meters. m.

"In the first quarter of 2018, Segezha Group demonstrated high operating performance and continued to actively implement development plans aimed at further growth of financial and operational results.
According to the results of the first quarter, revenue increased by 21.7% year-to-year. Such a high growth was achieved due to the growth of production volumes, an increase in demand in most markets of presence and, as a result, an increase in the price level for the company's products. The company has increased the performance and production of all key products of the group. Due to the above factors, as well as the methodical work of management to reduce logistics and other operating costs, the group's OIBDA increased by more than 70% year-to-year. We are systematically working to improve business performance and, following the results of 2018, we forecast significant growth of OIBDA. The ratio of net debt / LTM OIBDA from the company is at 4.4. By the end of this and throughout the next year, we plan to significantly reduce this figure and further keep the debt at a comfortable business level. In our arsenal, unique competitive advantages - high-quality raw materials and low production costs. The key priority now is to increase production so as to make the most of the good price environment in the paper and wood products markets this year. "
Revenues a year-to-year increased mainly due to growth in sales of paper and packaging, as well as an increase in average annual prices for sawnwood, paper bags, paper, glued beam and housekits. Positive impact on revenue also had a weakening of the ruble against the euro (about 27% of the revenue of the group is denominated in euros).
OIBDA growth is due to revenue growth, as well as price increases for most of the group's key products and optimization of logistics costs. Negative impact on the indicator has an increase in the cost of raw materials in the market. The share of own logging is 56.3%, which is due to the growth in production volumes.
The net loss is mainly due to the revaluation of exchange differences and interest expenses aimed at paying off the debt used to implement the investment program.
Capital expenditures for the implementation of the investment program are in accordance with the approved plan. The Segezha Pulp and Paper Mill is being modernized, the new plywood plant in Kirov is being launched in the second quarter of 2018.
