• Tele2 lags the Big3 operators in the market share, but launched its services in Moscow in late October 2015

• Predominantly prepaid market, limited handset subsidies

• Relatively high OIBDA margin (compared to developed markets) on the back of relatively benign competition and regulatory framework

Benign regulatory framework

• Mobile termination rates, roaming rates, and last mile fiber access are not regulated(1)

MegaFon has noticeable advantage in terms of frequencies… … allowing to get significantly higher datatransfer rate in MegaFon’s network

Both operator and end-user equipment already support 2x20

MHz for LTE, no other operator beside MegaFon can provide such

band length

After implementation of technology neutrality MegaFon is the

only operator able to utilize 3 times 2x20 MHz channels (2x20

MHz in 1800 band and 2 times 2x20 in 2600 band) for LTE

In other technologies all nation-wide operators are almost equal

None of nation-wide operators except MegaFon can realize

significant benefits from implementing technological neutrality

Events in Q1 2016 and post-closing events

25

RECOMMENDATION OF DIVIDENDS FOR 2015

• On 27 April, based on the results for 2015, MegaFon’s Board of Directors recommended

payment of a final dividend for 2015 in the amount of RUB 30 billion¹, equivalent to

RUB 48.38 per ordinary share (or GDR), subject to approval by the AGM

• The Board will also make a recommendation to shareholders, later this year, for the

payment of an interim dividend for 2016, the amount of which will be based on the

financial performance of the Company at that point in time

REGISTRATION OF NEW BOND PROGRAMME

• On 20 April, MegaFon registered a new programme with the regulatory authorities to

issue interest-bearing nonconvertible exchange bonds in the maximum principal

amount of RUB 80 billon (the “Programme”)

• Each bond issue under the Programme will have a maturity of up to 30 years, and the

coupon rate for each bond issue will be determined separately at the time of issue,

either by an auction or by book building

UPGRADE OF BUNDLED TARIFFS AND TARIFF OPTIONS

• In February and March, MegaFon upgraded its Internet tariff options and bundled tariff

plans to fit to customer patterns of use. As a result, the data traffic allowance under

the Internet tariff options was increased in certain regions, and subscription fees were

significantly reduced

MVNO PROJECT WITH GLONASS

• On 1 April, MegaFon signed a contract with the state-owned company GLONASS

(Global Navigation Satellite System) to act as a full-MVNO partner and an operator for

transmission of emergency call traffic. This project is an important milestone for

MegaFon, which has a strong track record in successful implementation of MVNO

projects

JOINT PROJECT WITH ER-TELECOM

• In April, MegaFon and ER-Telecom launched a joint offering relating to mobile and

fixed-line services. Customers subscribing to MegaFon’s bundled tariff plans get

access to fixed-line broadband Internet and digital TV from ER-Telecom with a 20%

discount. This joint service was initially offered in three large cities in Siberia and may

be extended to other regions going forward

COOPERATION WITH PAYMENT SYSTEM MIR

• MegaFon has become the first mobile operator to start working with the Russian

national payment system Mir. Starting from March 2016, holders of Mir banking cards

can pay for MegaFon’s mobile communication services via the “Autopayment” service.

This is an important step in promoting the Russian national payment system and

expanding the methods of payment for MegaFon’s services

CHANGE IN CEO OFFICE

• After successful four years with MegaFon, Mr. Ivan Tavrin has announced his

resignation as MegaFon’s CEO to pursue other business interests. His resignation was

accepted by the Board on 27 April 2016

• Subject to shareholders approval at the Annual General Meeting scheduled for 30 June

2016 (“AGM”), the Board has designated Mr. Sergei Soldatenkov, Chairman of the

Board and a former CEO of MegaFon, as the new CEO for a term of three years ending

on the date of the 2019 AGM

• Mr. Ivan Streshinsky was elected as the Chairman of the Board to replace Mr.

Soldatenkov, effective 27 April 2016

(1) Exact number of the dividends declared is 29,995,600,000 rubles

Mobile data revenue remains the key revenue growth driver

Key revenue components

Due to rounding, manual calculations for financials and KPIs may differ from those displayed.Note: (1) — Other wireless revenue includes revenues from VAS services; revenue from local subscribers which includes monthly fees, airtime revenues, own subscriber roaming and connection fees; wireless interconnection revenues; roaming charges to other wireless operators and other wireless revenues(2) — Include smartphones, tablets, dongles, routers, and other data-enabled devices

Wireless revenue increased in Q1 2016 by 0.7% y-o-y. Growthin mobile data revenue and higher demand for MegaFon’svalue-added services (+8.3% y-o-y) fully compensated for aslowdown in revenue from traditional voice services

Mobile data continued to be the key growth driver andrepresented 27.5% of total revenue in Q1 2016 vs. 24.1% inQ1 2015, increasing by 15.6% y-o-y due to:

― expansion of data user base by 9.8% y-o-y to 30.2 millionusers as a result of our pro-active data user acquisitionefforts and higher adoption of data-enabled devices(54.4% of data-enabled devices(2) registered on MegaFonnetwork)

― higher data usage resulting from:

• effective promotion of mobile data offerings and newtariff initiatives

• promotion of tablets (complete plug-and-playpackaged solutions) and smartphones in controlledretail stores

Note: Due to rounding, manual calculations for financials and KPIs may differ from those displayed(1) — Data Service User is defined as a Subscriber who has consumed any amount of data traffic within preceding month(2) — Mobile subscribers that do not fall within the definition of Data Service User Base

• Overall subscriber base in Russia increased by 5.0

access to an additional attractive customer base

• Data service user base expanded by 10.0% y-o-y to 29.6

DSU(2) & APPMB(3)

DATA ARPU (ARPDU(4))

Drivers of Russia total wireless services revenues: DSU and APPMB

Results provided on this page cover only the Russian business

Note: Due to rounding, manual calculations for financials and KPIs may differ from those displayed(1) Operating KPIs presented here vary from those reported earlier due to change of methodology for data service users calculation.

Please refer to our Q4 and FY 2015 Results press release for reconciliation details (2) Total number of megabytes transferred during a given period divided by average number of data subscribers during such period, divided by number of months in such period; (3) ARPDU for a given period divided by DSU in such period; (4) Total data revenues in a given period divided by average number of data service subscribers during such period, divided by number of months in such period

• Strong increase of DSU (+23.4% y-o-y) in Q1 2016 resulted

from:

– upgrade of tariff and internet options with higher mobile

data allowances

– promotion of mobile data offerings and new tariff

initiatives

– promotion of tablets (complete plug-and-play packaged

solutions) and smartphones in controlled retail stores

– growing penetration of data-enabled devices on

MegaFon network to more than 54% as of the end of the

quarter

– intensive roll-out of the 4G/LTE network resulting in a

higher share of 4G traffic, amounting to 40% of total

traffic

– continued increase in 4G-enabled devices registered on

MegaFon network reaching 8.5 million

• APPMB decreased by RUB 0.01 to RUB 0.06

• ARPDU increased by 5.9% y-o-y due to organic growth in

data traffic usage on the back of increasing customer

demand for larger data packs, which became more

affordable

Key factors influencing OIBDA margin

• In Q1 2016, OIBDA decreased by 5.4% y-o-y, while

OIBDA margin declined by 3.0 p.p. y-o-y to 40.2%

• The following factors influenced OIBDA:

- Gross profit decreased by 0.2% y-o-y due to higher

cost of revenues (+6.5% y-o-y), as gross profit margin

declined to 71.8%

- Sales & marketing expenses increased by 13.3% y-o-y

mainly a result of higher dealer commissions due to a

growing number of subscribers, including those

acquired via the Svyaznoy retail chain

- General & administrative expenses grew by 6.0% due

to:

– increased rent and utilities expenses resulting from

higher office rent costs, our network expansion and

increase in utility costs

– higher radio frequency costs resulting from the

change in methodology of fees calculation by

Roscomnadzor
