In the "National Computer Corporation" changed the main owner

As it became known to TAdviser, the shareholder of Baikal Electronics and co-founder of Astra Linux Denis Frolov on May 23, 2022 became the owner of 80% of the National Computer Corporation (NCC). Denis Frolov fought for control over the NCC since 2020 with the former president of the corporation Alexander Kalinin.

The Astra Group of Companies declined to comment, citing the "silence regime" operating inside the holding.

The Aquarius Group also did not comment on the change of shareholders in the NCC, saying that Aquarius is now not part of the NCC and there are no ties between the companies.

As a source familiar with the activities of the NCC told TAdviser, Denis Frolov and his partners decided to create the largest player in the microelectronics market a few years ago and gradually implemented the strategy. Acquiring control over NCC was one of the most important strategic tasks for them. However, Alexander and Alexey Kalinin were able to withdraw from the group the most "tasty" resource - the company "Aquarius," which is engaged in the production of computer and server equipment. In December 2021, the parties went to the world and recorded the current state of affairs - the NCC left under Denis Frolov, "Aquarius" remained with the Kalinins.

According to the interlocutor of TAdviser, the transfer of NCC to the ownership of Denis Frolov is the legal registration of the agreements that were reached in December 2021. As the market representative noted, the conflict of shareholders negatively affected the business of all companies included in the NCC.

In December, an agreement was reached that NCC would sell Aquarius to Smart technologies, 40% of which belongs to Alexei Kalinin. In February 2022, NCC shareholders Leonid Goldenberg and Evgeny Lachkov became the owners of 100% of NCC, owning shares of 67% and 33%, respectively. After Denis Frolov became the main owner of NCC in May, Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov each had 10% of the company. Read more here

E. Lachkov and L. Goldenberg filed a lawsuit against A. Kalinin for 953 million rubles

In October 2021, the owners of the National Computer Corporation Yevgeny Lachkov and Leonid Goldenberg filed a lawsuit against Alexander Kalinin for 953 million rubles. In their opinion, Kalinin, on behalf of NCC, voted at a meeting of Aquarus members for changes that deprived the company of corporate control over the LLC. The amount of the claim is the plaintiffs' assessment of the reduction in the cost of NCC as a result of these actions.

According to Kommersant, according to the plaintiffs, Kalinin at a meeting of shareholders of the latter voted to adopt a new version of the charter. According to this document, decisions are made 99% of the vote with the share of the NCC up to 98.9%, the newspaper explains. Thus, the NCC lost control of the Aquarius company, the applicants told the publication. Kalinin's representatives deny any violations on his part.

First, you need to establish that there was a violation, and then prove that it entailed specific losses, said Zhanna Tomashevskaya, managing partner of Tomashevskaya & Partners, representing the interests of Alexander Kalinin. She called the lawsuit unfounded, the alleged violations have not been established.

According to Tomashevskaya, after Kalinin's refusal to sell the stake, his partners themselves "committed a number of actual and legal actions" to transfer control over the Aquarius business.

These and other circumstances will be studied by the court as part of the claim of Alexander Kalinin to expel Goldenberg and Lachkov from the NCC, she added.

The meeting on the claim registered by the Moscow Arbitration Court will be held on October 25, 2021.

The representative of Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov, in a conversation with the newspaper, said that the entrepreneurs also filed a lawsuit to exclude Mr. Kalinin from the NCC owners, as well as "with statements to law enforcement agencies." According to the court's file cabinet, the claim was filed on October 13, the plot of the appeal to the security forces is not specified.

According to Kirill Stus, head of law practice at Intercession, in order to satisfy the claims, the plaintiffs prove the involvement of Alexander Kalinin in the losses, and this is "very problematic." The former president can explain that changes in the charter were made in the interests of society, and losses are associated with changes in the market, the lawyer explained.^[2]

Alexander Kalinin was released from house arrest

On June 9, 2021, the Tverskoy District Court of Moscow changed the measure of restraint for Alexander Kalinin, President of the NCC. This was announced to TAdviser by a company representative. Read more here.

Co-owners of the NCC ousted Alexander Kalinin from the presidency. He plans to appeal this "hostile move" in court

On June 2, 2021, at an extraordinary meeting of NCC participants, the company's shareholders Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov removed Alexander Kalinin from the post of president of the company and appointed Denis Frolov, co-owner of a large IT holding, whose structure includes the developer of the domestic operating system Astra Linux Rusbitekh, the manufacturer of Baikal Electronics processors, and other companies. The change of president is stated in the official statement of the NCC, received by the editorial office of TAdviser.

It also says that the company does not agree with this step and plans to defend its position in court.

We all, including Alexander Kalinin, consider this a hostile step, Alexander Kalinin will defend his rights in court. We also believe that the appointment of Denis Frolov as president of the NCC is a violation of antimonopoly legislation, the NCC said in a statement to TAdviser.

Alexander Kalinin, we recall, continues to be under house arrest in the case of restricting competition.

The meeting itself was held within the framework of the law, no one obstructed its holding, all participants, as well as their representatives with legal powers, were admitted to the meeting. Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov voted in favor, and Aleksei Kalinin, as the legal representative of Alexander Kalinin, his son, voted against the appointment of Denis Frolov as president of the NCC.

Within 10 days, the minutes of the meeting will be made. After it is signed by all participants in the meeting, the protocol will be registered in the tax office, Frolov's appointment will come into force. Until then, Alexander Kalinin remains the president of the NCC. After registering the protocol, the company plans to appeal the decision within the framework of the law.

After the appointment of Frolov as president of the NCC, he will actually remain the only employee of the NCC - after the announcement of the results of the meeting, the employees applied for dismissal and will now work in other companies of the holding, the company said.

Nevertheless, now the conflict takes place directly in the NCC and does not affect its main asset, Aquarius Group of Companies, the message says. The management of the company will continue to fulfill all its plans and obligations to employees, partners and customers. The company's management has big plans to develop it.

We have already announced plans to attract investments in the amount of 20 billion rubles over five years, which will go to expand the staff, strengthen R&D and increase production capacity. Alexander Kalinin, who managed the company for 15 years and largely thanks to which Aquarius achieved such success, will continue to do so, the NCC said.

Now the company is in the active phase of its development. Restructuring is being carried out by dividing Aquarius into two holdings: Aquarius Solutions and Aquarius Technologies. This will make it possible to effectively manage the companies included in the holdings, and it will be easier for the companies themselves to attract financing, partners, generate new products faster and bring them to the market, the NCC believes. Aleksei Kalinin was appointed chairman of the board of directors of Aquarius Group of Companies on June 2, and will perform representative functions on behalf of the company.

We see great potential in the Aquarius Group of Companies, even in a difficult year for all 2020, the company was able to double its turnover. Now, with favorable market conditions, the company is ready to grow even more actively. We expect that in the near future it will be possible to resolve all conflicts, and nothing will interfere with the implementation of our ambitious plans for the development of the Aquarius Group of Companies, the NCC said in a statement.

NCC assets

As of May 2021, the NCC included:

• Aquarius (withdrew from the NCC in December 2021)
• Systematization
• National Platform is the manufacturer of the Russian ERP system Ma-3, and
• Dubai National Computer Corporation Middle East is a subsidiary of NCC, which promotes the corporation's solutions abroad.

Co-owners of NCC demanded 770 million rubles from the president of the company for changing the charter of the subsidiary

On May 31, 2021, it became known about the continuation of the conflict between the shareholders of the National Computer Corporation (NCC). Evgeny Lachkov and Leonid Goldenberg, who own 32% of its authorized capital, sent a pre-search statement to the president of the company, Alexander Kalinin (he owns a 33% share). The authors of the claim demand to pay them 130.4 million rubles each, as well as 509.5 million rubles of the NCC itself.

According to Vedomosti, the dissatisfaction of Lachkov and Goldenberg concerns the changes made to the charter of the Aquarius group of companies owned by NCC. They argue that the amendments block transactions with Aquarius securities without the consent of all its shareholders. At the same time, now all the key issues for Aquarius, in particular large transactions, changes in the authorized capital and charter, the determination of the main areas of activity, the appointment of the general director, should be decided by 99% of the vote. Even minority shareholders of Aquarius can actually block any decisions, simply not participating in their discussion for one reason or another, the newspaper reports with reference to the statement.

Vice-President of the NCC Aleksei Kalinin (son of Alexander Kalinin) considers the claims unfounded, and the losses are not confirmed by anything.

To calculate their hypothetical losses, NCC participants must prove that due to a change in corporate governance, the value of their shares has decreased, "he said in a conversation with the publication.

If the claims of Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov are not satisfied, they intend to file a lawsuit against Kalinin with the Moscow Arbitration Court. This was reported to Vedomosti by a lawyer representing the interests of the NCC co-owners. According to him, the lawsuit is planned to be filed "in the near future," according to the publication of May 31, 2021.^[3]

NCC shareholders began to fight for the presidency

On May 20, 2021, new details of the conflict of shareholders of the National Computer Corporation (NCC) became known. Leonid Goldenberg and Evgeny Lachkov, together owning 64% of the company's authorized capital, demand the dismissal of NCC President Alexander Kalinin (he has 33%) and offered Denis Frolov, co-owner of the Astra Linux operating system developer, for this post.

The relevant information, as Vedomosti writes, is contained in the notification of the convening of an extraordinary general meeting on May 31, 2021. At this meeting, it is planned to approve the change of the president of the NCC, which Aleksei Kalinin (son of Alexander Kalinin) called "a violation of legal procedures."

According to Kalinin Jr., the position of president of the NCC is nominal, since the person occupying it cannot change the general director of Aquarius and cannot make any changes to the structure of its management.

The meeting was to be convened by the sole body - Alexander Kalinin or his trusted representative. " On June 2, we scheduled an official meeting, offered to meet partners, but we have not yet received feedback from them, "he said.

Lachkov and Goldenberg claim that Alexander Kalinin allegedly held a meeting of Aquarus shareholders without their knowledge, during which the company's charter was changed. Aleksei Kalinin said that his father made the decision to change the charter of Aquarius and change the leadership "within the framework of his powers."

Frolov's desire to buy Aquarius is understandable, since the asset is at its peak and is developing rapidly. Since this is required by the industry and government trends, we are implementing a new strategy. Therefore, we responded to the desire of two partners who have never managed Aquarius to withdraw from the asset and are ready to redeem their shares, having a preemptive right to do so. We want to close this deal as quickly as possible so as not to create conflicts in the industry, "he told the publication.

Vedomosti notes that Aquarius remains the largest and essentially the only income-generating asset of the NCC. Ilya Zharsky, managing partner of the Veta expert group, estimates its cost at 38-40 billion rubles.

According to SPARK-Interfax, by May 20, 2021, in addition to Aquarius, NCC owns the National Platform and National Energy Platform and Dubai's National Computer Corporation Middle East. But they do not generate revenue, a representative of the NCC explained to the newspaper.^[4]

NCC shareholder conflict reaches court

On May 13, 2021, it became known about the transition of the conflict of shareholders of the National Computer Corporation (NCC) to the judicial plane. Co-owners of the company Evgeny Lachkov and Leonid Goldenberg filed a lawsuit against the head of the NCC Alexander Kalinin (owns 33% of the NCC).

As Kommersant writes with reference to this lawsuit, on April 2, 2021, at a meeting of Aquarius participants (part of the NCC), a new president, Dmitry Troshenkov, was appointed, while the ex-head of the group, Vladimir Stepanov, received 1% at Aquarius at the same meeting. Lachkov and Goldenberg claim that they were not notified of the meeting, with changes to the group's charter and shareholder body, adopted without their knowledge, violating their rights.

As reported in the lawsuit, according to changes in the charter, now decisions on key issues must be approved by 99% of the votes of the LLC participants, that is, with a mandatory for the new minority shareholder Vladimir Stepanov. Co-owners of the company will not be able to sell their shares without his approval, and NCC has lost the opportunity to manage Aquarius.

A meeting of NCC participants is scheduled for May 31, 2021, at which the termination of the powers of Alexander Kalinin as president will be considered. The plaintiffs attribute his actions to a desire to maintain control of Aquarius.

Aleksei Kalinin, the son of Alexander Kalinin and the first vice-president of the NCC, said in a conversation with the publication that the changes in the charter are aimed at building a "new corporate governance," they were discussed with other shareholders and do not violate their rights. He explained the appearance of 1% in Vladimir Stepanov by the "exercise of the option."

According to Stanislav Danilov, partner of the Pen & Paper board, the main goal of Alexander Kalinin's actions, which outraged the plaintiffs, was to maintain the control that he traditionally had in the group of companies, especially on the eve of the removal from the presidency.^[5]

IT distributor OCS left NCC

As TAdviser found out in April 2021, OCS, one of the oldest and largest IT distributors on the Russian market, left the NCC.

During the restructuring, mutual redemption of ownership shares was made. As a result of the buyout, one part of the owners owns only OCS and will focus on the development of the distribution business. And another part of the owners, having left the OCS participants, controls the businesses of Aquarius and Systematics, will continue to develop these brands. There will be no more intersection of ownership, "TAdviser explained to OCS.

The redistribution of assets began in the NCC. A special battle unfolds for the manufacturer of "iron" "Aquarius"

The owners of NCC, after years of partnership, had disagreements over the division of the corporation's assets. So, on April 12, the representative of the vice-president of NCC Alexei Kalinin (the son of one of the shareholders of NCC Alexander Kalinin) distributed a message that the corporation plans to invest 20 billion rubles over 5 years in a key asset - Aquarius, a large manufacturer of computer equipment, servers and data storage systems.

In addition to Aquarius, we recall that the NCC includes the Systematics group, the National Platform and the Dubai National Computer Corporation Middle East.

On the same day, the appointment of the general director of Aquarius was announced: Dmitry Troshenkov, who previously held senior positions in large Russian companies such as Lenenergo, TNK-BP, En +, etc., was invited to this position, and also worked as the general director of the system integrator Technoserv after his transfer to VTB control . This is a specially created position at Aquarius in order to strengthen the management team in connection with the new development strategy. And the president of the company, Vladimir Stepanov, is responsible for the implementation of the new strategy.

The message from the representative of Alexei Kalinin announced plans to concentrate Aquarius in the hands of the President of the NCC Alexander Kalinin, who owns 33% of the NCC, and his family.

We want to consolidate 100% of the shares of Aquarius in the family and are ready to invest in the development of the company and are confident that it is Dmitry Troshenkov with his experience that will help us achieve our goals, "says Aleksei Kalinin

Aleksei Kalinin also noted that his father managed Aquarius for 15 years and plans to continue to do so.

We all believe in this asset, we see great potential in it and today we see a lot of opportunities in the market to increase the company's share. To take advantage of these opportunities, we need both large and constant investments in R&D, modernization of production and the creation of new products, says the son of Alexander Kalinin

In response to a clarifying question whether the statements made are the agreed position of all NCC shareholders, Aleksei Kalinin conveyed to TAdviser the following: "This is the position of the company's management and the Kalinin family. Consolidation of 100% of Aquarius is one of the elements of this strategy. "

Alexander Kalinin, we recall, continues to be under house arrest in the case of restricting competition.

At the same time, other co-owners of NCC - Leonid Goldenberg and Evgeny Lachkov (64% of NCCs own in total) - handed over to TAdviser that they were surprised to learn about the plans to invest in their asset from the press.

A few days before the release of the message from the Kalinins, the Kommersant newspaper wrote that their family wants to buy out shares in the NCC from partners - Leonid Goldenberg and Yevgeny Lachkov. But those, in turn, according to the newspaper, want to sell a total of 64% of the company to the co-owner of the Astra Linux group Denis Frolov, who also plans to gain control in the processor manufacturer Baikal. The deal would allow the businessman to create one of the largest holdings in the microelectronics and data storage systems market and gain an advantage from state customers, experts interviewed by Kommersant say.

Alexander Kalinin has a preemptive right to buy back shares, and in the event of an attempt to sell them to a third party, this right can be used, his son Alexei told Kommersant.

And Yevgeny Lachkov clarified to Kommersant that negotiations were underway with Aleksei Kalinin, "but they ended without a result."

We really have a number of negotiations related to the sale of our shares, we see a high interest in the asset due to the fact that the state is following the path of import substitution in equipment and software, "he explained.

According to its own data, the total revenue of NCC for 2019 amounted to 215 billion rubles, writes Kommersant. The corporation did not provide data for 2020, specifying that Aquarius received 25 billion rubles in 2020. revenue.

The commissioning of the facility is planned at the beginning of the second quarter of 2013.

According to NCC President Alexander Kalinin, the decision to invest in the purchase of new warehouse space is caused by two reasons. "Firstly, the steadily growing business of the holding companies, constantly ahead of the market growth, requires additional resources in all areas - from personnel and finance to office and warehouse real estate. Secondly, the new warehouse capacity will serve as an additional point of profit generation. Until now, there is a shortage of vacant space in the market, which, according to analysts, will continue in the next few years. In this regard, the National Computer Corporation plans to use new areas to organize a logistics complex and provide rental services for both holding companies and third-party organizations, "said Mr. Kalinin.

According to the partner of B.I.D.S., Maxim Shakirov, this transaction is the largest among the acquisitions of industrial real estate objects by end users on the Russian market over the past few years. "The uniqueness of this transaction lies in the fact that the National Computer Corporation was the first in its segment to decide to implement a project of this volume in the build-to-suit format (construction under the customer's requirements). The success of the implementation of transactions in this format is possible only when one side is ready to hear the requirements and expectations of the other side, to be flexible and compromise. This format will allow the National Computer Corporation to obtain a modern class "A" warehouse complex, which will fully comply with the holding's plans, "adds Mr. Shakirov.

In this project, PNK Group implements a number of technological solutions that meet the specific business tasks of NCC. In particular, this is the individual architecture of the building, including service centers, workshops and special storage areas, as well as the presence of specialized ramps with raising the level of asphalt on the site for comfortable unloading of small-tonnage vehicles.
