The Treasury revealed a financial hole in the Russian Post for 24.5 billion rubles. One of its reasons is poor-quality IT systems
At the end of November 2023, the Federal Treasury of the Russian Federation published the results of an audit of the activities of the Russian Post. According to the Treasury, the "size of the negative impact on the financial result" of the postal company amounted to 24.5 billion rubles. The authors of the report cited the following as the reasons for such a financial hole:
- the company lost revenue as a result of improper operation of the group's IT systems;
- 10.2 million rubles amounted to lost profit as a result of the ineffective organization of the retail business and non-fulfillment of the sales plan;
- the possibility of leasing objects was not provided for by the previous management team of Russian Post, while the cadastral valuation of the property block amounted to 10.5 billion rubles;
- the company rented an office complex with the actual downtime from 2021 of the old headquarters of the group's head office on Varshavskoye Shosse;
- the remuneration fund (PHY) of the management apparatus increased by 13%, and the group's subsidiaries by 186% if there is duplication of management functions
- the loss was brought by the company's participation in National Logistics Technologies JSC and the construction of 10 logistics centers for the needs of Russian Post with a total value of 21.9 billion rubles;
- the profitability of purchases was not justified;
- the company implemented unprofitable projects, in particular, the installation of checkpoints.
According to the results of the audit, the Treasury proposed to establish external control over the implementation of the financial recovery plan until 2025 and to adjust it. At the end of September 2023, the Chairman of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko announced a growing financial hole in the Russian Post. According to her, if the government does not pay attention to the situation and does not take action, then the hole will turn into a hole "where everything will fail."[2]
Russian Post debt reaches 133 billion rubles
On July 18, 2023, 2023, it became known about the large debts of the Russian Post. To get rid of them, the company is forced to launch a cost optimization program.
| | 2022 became, I am not afraid of this word, catastrophic for the "Post." "Post" received a record loss - more than 30 billion rubles, a large accumulated debt - 133 billion rubles, while most of this debt has no sources of repayment and repayment, - said the general director of the company Mikhail Volkov, who headed the Russian Post in January 2023 (quoted by Interfax). | |
According to him, interaction with creditors helped to avoid default, but the situation remains difficult: only debt servicing, including leasing payments, requires a state corporation 16 billion rubles a year. Volkov recalled that even in the best years, the company did not earn so much money to cover interest. By mid-June 2023, Russian Post lost a significant part of its revenues due to the loss of cross-border trade and mail with several countries.
| | The fact is that in the first half of the year alone, the company was obliged to pay more than 30 billion rubles for external obligations. And if nothing were done, in May we would have run out of money to pay salaries. We successfully agreed with all creditors, - said Volkov, adding that by mid-July 2023 the company managed to reduce 3 billion rubles of debts. | |
Mikhail Volkov also spoke about the launched financial recovery program of the Russian Post, which involves getting rid of ineffective costs.
| | We optimized managers by 20% in the country as a whole. If we talk about the central apparatus, here in Moscow in fact we cut our costs by 25%, - he said. | |
Volkov added that Russian Post expects to increase revenue through new services, primarily in the field of e-commerce, as revenues from traditional services fall.[3]

Revenue rationale
- The main drivers of revenue growth were the parcel business. Substantial revenues were also brought by the postal business.
- An important factor in revenue growth is the growth of mail due to the development of online commerce.
In 2016, more than 225 million international shipments with commodity investments were processed, which is almost 2 times higher than last year's figure (128 million shipments) and more than 10 times - the 2012 figure (21.7 million shipments). The volume of postal exports increased by a third compared to 2015.
In 2016, according to an analytical study by the Association of Internet Trade Companies (AKIT) in the e-commerce goods delivery market (including shipments from foreign online stores and delivery in the domestic market), 62% of buyers entrusted the delivery of their mail to Russian Post. This is 11 percentage points higher than in 2015 - 51%.
The AKIT study notes that the volume of the domestic Internet trade market in 2016 increased in units by 6% compared to 2015, and the cross-border trade market - by 102%. In 2016, Russian Post processed 225 million international shipments with commodity investments, which is almost 2 times more than in 2015 - 128 million shipments.
In general, in 2016, the Russian Post processed 296 million mail items with a commodity investment (collectively: domestic and foreign), which is more than 1.5 times higher than last year's figure - 194 million units.

The average daily volume of processing of international shipments increased 30 times compared to 2013 (from 50 thousand during the 2013 collapse to 1.5 million during the peak period of 2016)
It is important that the quality of delivery improves with the growth of labor productivity. Compliance with letter delivery benchmarks rose from 54% in 2013 to 85% in 2016, and compliance with parcel delivery benchmarks rose from 52% in 2013 to 95% in 2016. For the period from 2013 to 2016, the number of claims per 1,000 shipments decreased by 9 times (from 0.36% in 2013 to 0.04% in 2016).
At the end of 2016, the revenue of the Russian Post from retail sales exceeded 17 billion rubles, which is 14% more than in 2015. Net income (revenue less purchase cost) of the enterprise from retail also increased by 14% and amounted to about 6 billion rubles.
The largest increase in revenue was demonstrated by the "postal" categories of goods, which are given priority in the assortment of post offices: sales of unmarked envelopes increased by 66%, stationery and paper-white goods showed a significant increase (by 60%), sales of book products increased by more than a third (35%), by 13% - periodicals. Sales of essential goods in demand in post offices in rural areas and small towns were actively growing, for example, the sale of household chemicals, cosmetics and personal hygiene products increased by 30%.
