Thus, the capital investments of the enterprise in 2021 should amount to UAH 27.2 billion, while in 2020 this amount was about UAH 9.7 billion. Note that 55% of this amount is the company’s own funds, 31% – investors’ funds, another 14% is planned to be received from the state budget.
At the same time, UZ counts on state support in the implementation of these plans. After all, investments in infrastructure renewal should be comprehensive and systemic, so that in the future they return to the state budget as a profit.
The company’s management announced a development plan for the company, which will help to bail it out by 2021 and ensure a high level of profitability. This plan foresees, first of all, an increase in the volume of freight traffic and a massive modernization of wagons and locomotives.
According to the chairman of the board of the company Vladimir Zhmak, 2021 should be a breakthrough for the company on the way to transform UZ from a loss-making company into a profitable business.
