Nearly UAH 50B in dividends from state-owned companies to enter budget this year – PM Svyrydenko
The government has approved dividend payout ratios for state-owned companies and banks, with nearly UAH 50 billion expected to be transferred to the state budget based on 2025 results.
According to Ukrinform, Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko announced this on Telegram.
She provided a list of companies, including their profit shares and the dividend amounts to be paid into the budget.
Among energy sector companies: Energoatom (50% of net profit, UAH 9.344 billion); Ukrhydroenergo (30%, UAH 6.285 billion); Naftogaz of Ukraine (30% of state-owned profit, UAH 970 million); Gas Transmission System Operator of Ukraine (50%, UAH 4.218 billion); and Market Operator (75%, UAH 30.5 million).
“We expect that part of the net profit remaining at the disposal of energy companies will be directed toward implementing regional resilience plans – preparing for winter, restoring damaged critical infrastructure, and strengthening engineering protection,” Svyrydenko said.
Dividends will also be transferred by Ukrainian Defense Industry (30%, UAH 1.048 billion); Ukrenergomashyny (75% of the state share, UAH 1.733 million); and Ukrfinzhytlo (30%, UAH 2.062 billion).
The Prime Minister noted that decisions on each company were made in consultation with supervisory boards and management, taking into account financial conditions and reconstruction needs.
Svyrydenko emphasized that profits from state-owned banks are also a key resource for financing defense and social spending.
“By government decision, PrivatBank will transfer UAH 20.4 billion in dividends (70% of profit), while Oschadbank will contribute UAH 4.8 billion (30%),” she added.
As reported earlier, the National Bank of Ukraine approved its consolidated financial statements for 2025 on April 27, 2026, and will transfer UAH 146.1 billion in profit to the state budget.
