Financial income and financial expense

Our financial expense decreased by RUR 98.3 million or 67.3% from RUR 146.0 million in 2009 to RUR 47.7 million in 2010.This was primarily due to the decrease in the balance of the Citibank syndicated loan, as per agreement concluded in 2006, scheduled for full repayment in 2011.
