According to Nikolai Sobolev, First Deputy General Director of SOLLERS PJSC, “The company faced serious challenges in 2018 due to the significant cutback in government demand stimulation programs and rising metal prices, which increased costs for a number of components, significantly affecting the volume and profitability of UAZ sales. However, SOLLERS Group managed to deliver revenue growth of 10.4% by expanding the range of modifications and special versions based on UAZ vehicles.” He added that in 2019, Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant will continue upgrading its model range and launch a fundamentally new cargo and passenger platform. Nikolai Sobolev also noted: “SOLLERS aims to take leading positions in the LCV segment in Russia, and the UAZ commercial vehicle line, combined with the Ford Transit line, makes it possible to offer Russian customers a full range of product solutions in all price segments of the LCV market. We foresee great potential to further expand Ford Transit market share and sales growth over the next few years.” 2018 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
