Shareholders of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of Rostec) have approved an additional issue of 2.06 trillion shares via private placement. The decision was made at a general meeting, according to a document on the corporate information disclosure website.
The UAC Board of Directors will later approve the placement price. In the spring of 2025, the corporation had already agreed on the parameters of an additional issue of 2.018 trillion shares at a price of 0.27 rubles per share, which corresponded to raising almost 545 billion rubles.
The new issue is comparable in scale and indicates the continuation of a large-scale financial reboot of the industry. The additional issue is taking place against the backdrop of increasing serial production and import substitution programs.
As a reminder, UAC unites more than 30 key aviation industry enterprises and is responsible for the production of aircraft of the "Su", "MiG", "Il", "Tu", "Yak", "Be" families, as well as Superjet 100 and MS-21. The corporation is included in the list of strategic organizations, and its financial decisions directly reflect the state's priorities in aviation.
