Supplier of scarce microchips for IT market sent to pre-trial detention

Cyfron company worked with Aquarius and NPP Gamma

The Chertanovsky District Court of Moscow arrested Igor Vinyukov, the CEO and owner of OOO Cyfron. He is accused of tax evasion on a particularly large scale. According to a tax audit, the company's arrears reached 148.5 million rubles as of July 1.

OOO Cyfron is a Moscow-based company specializing in wholesale supplies of imported electronic components and radio parts to the Russian market. According to open sources, the legal entity was registered in 2016, but the division's history dates back to 2002, when a branch of the American Cyfron Semiconductor Company USA was opened in Moscow; since 2010, the structure began operating as an independent unit.

Cyfron's key activity is the supply of components that are unavailable or discontinued in the Russian market: programmable logic integrated circuits (PLIS), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), sensors, filters, as well as products from manufacturers such as Analog Devices, Xilinx, Altera, and Texas Instruments.

Among its clients were large organizations. In particular, Cyfron collaborated with the computer equipment manufacturer Aquarius, as well as FGUP NPP Gamma, which operates in the field of information security and special radio equipment.

However, in 2025, CYFRON practically made no net profit. A year earlier, the figure was about 3 million rubles, while in 2022 it exceeded 38 million.

In parallel, the FNS secured the seizure of the director's funds totaling over 121.9 million rubles and restrictions on entering into transactions.
