Ron Sommer, Chairman of the Board of Directors, MTS, commented:

"Andrei Dubovskov has achieved excellent results as the president of MTS. Thanks to Andrei's business and corporate reform, a nuanced understanding of the market specifics, excellent professional intuition and a perfectly balanced team, MTS, from year to year and from quarter to quarter, strengthened its leadership on the Russian market, consistently increasing the revenue and OIBDA gap with its closest competitors. Over the recent years, MTS has transformed from a traditional telecommunications operator to a digital service provider. Today, MTS is not only the leader in the mobile communications market, but also a major player in the market for systems integration services, cyber security, cloud services, Big Data, broadband Internet access and satellite TV as well as financial and entertainment services. We thank Andrei for his immense contribution and wish him further success. We are confident that the new MTS president Alexey Kornya will continue to implement MTS's strategic initiatives towards the development of an efficient digital services ecosystem. There is no doubt that Alexey's extensive experience in the Company, his deep and comprehensive understanding of MTS’s business processes and industry specifics, will allow us to further strengthen MTS' position in all markets of presence and create additional opportunities for business growth in new segments."
