⚡️Metinvest paid 8,5 billion UAH in taxes for the first half of 2026.
⭕️This is 8% less than for the same period last year.
Metallurgists are operating under pressure from several factors at once: the blockade of ports, EU restrictions, CBAM, expensive energy carriers, and a +30% increase in the rail tariff.
Industry associations warn: if the situation does not change, up to half of the sector’s enterprises could be at risk of shutdown by the end of the year.
At the same time, over more than four years of full-scale war, Metinvest has directed over 82,2 billion UAH to Ukraine’s budget.
