None of the Company nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or any other person accepts any liability whatsoever for any loss howsoever arising from any use of the contents of this presentation or otherwise arising in connection therewith. This presentation does not constitute an offer or an advertisement of any securities in any jurisdiction.

The financial information contained in this presentation is derived from the condensed consolidated interim financial information (unaudited) of Globaltrans Investment PLC ("the Company" and together with its consolidated subsidiaries "Globaltrans" or "the Group") as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2021 and 2020 and prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union. The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated Management report and consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union and the Cyprus Companies Law, Cap. 113.

The presentational currency of the Group's financial results is Russian rouble ("RUB"), which is the functional currency of the Company as well as its Cypriot and Russian subsidiaries.

In this presentation the Group has used certain non-IFRS financial information (not recognised by EU IFRS or IFRS) as supplemental measures of the Group's operating performance. The management believes that these non-IFRS measures provide valuable information to readers, because they enable them to focus more directly on the underlying day-to-day performance of the Group's business. The Company also reports certain operational information to illustrate the changes in the Group's operational and financial performance during the reporting periods.

Certain financial information which is derived from management accounts is marked in this presentation with an asterisk {*}. Information (non-IFRS and operating measures) requiring additional explanation or defining is marked with initial capital letters and the explanations or definitions are provided at the end of this presentation.

Rounding adjustments have been made in calculating some of the financial and operational information included in this presentation. As a result, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be exact arithmetic aggregations of the figures that precede them.

The Group has obtained certain statistical, market and pricing information that is included in this presentation on such topics as the Russian freight rail transportation market and related subjects from the following third-party sources: Federal State Statistics Service of Russian Federation ("Rosstat"); JSC Russian Railways ("RZD") and Federal Antimonopoly Service ("FAS"). The Group has accurately reproduced such information and, as far as it is aware and is able to ascertain from information published by such third-party sources, no facts have been omitted that would render the reproduced information inaccurate or misleading. The Group has not independently verified this third-party information. In addition, the official data published by Russian governmental agencies may be substantially less complete or researched than that of more developed countries.

All non-IFRS financial and operational information presented in this presentation should be used only as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider such information in isolation or in any combination as a substitute for analysis of the Group's consolidated financial statements and condensed consolidated interim financial information reported under EU IFRS, which are available at the Globaltrans' corporate website www.globaltrans.com.
