The CEO of the Mykolaiv Shipbuilding Plant lent the enterprise 6,7 million — and did not disclose it in his declaration. His brother without a driver's license bought an Audi A8 for 30 thousand. The National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (NACP) calculated 10,26 million of inaccurate data.
Serhii Pylypchuk has headed the state enterprise “Mykolaiv Shipbuilding Plant” since March 2024. The declaration for that year contains neither the nearly [amount] he, as an individual, transferred to his own plant as an interest-free repayable assistance, nor the Audi A8 he drove and for which he received fines. After a full review, the NACP assessed violations totaling 10,26 million hryvnias.
The check was conducted from 13 October 2025 until 6 February 2026. The declaration was submitted on 31 March 2025. Pylypchuk did not respond to the NACP's request.
The director lends to his own plant
In 2024 Pylypchuk concluded several interest-free repayable financial assistance agreements with SE “Mykolaiv Shipbuilding Plant” and transferred a total of 6,7 million UAH to the enterprise. Copies of the agreements were provided to the agency by JSC “Ukrainian Defense Industry.” The money was disbursed in tranches from April to December.
Repayments under the agreements were to be made by 26 March 2025. Apart from salary payments of 392 505 UAH, nothing was credited to Pylypchuk's accounts at Raiffeisen, Oschadbank, Sense Bank and Cominbank from the plant. The plant itself did not respond to queries about amounts repaid.
Where did 6,7 million come from? Official earnings from 2007 to 2023 year — 862 thousand. At the start of 2024 he had 2 235 UAH in the Raiffeisen account. In 2024 he topped up accounts with cash by more than 1,5 million and made other transactions, but the agency writes plainly: lawful income is insufficient for such assistance to the plant. This may indicate funds from unidentified sources. The declaration contains no loans to the plant at all.
Brother's Audi for 30 thousand and dozens of speeding fines
On 25 September 2024 Román Pylypchuk, his blood brother, bought an Audi A8 (201) for 30 thousand UAH. The brother has no driver's license and owns only this car. Four days later the director became the registered user until the end of 2026. He insures the car with “BBS Insurance.” He refuels at WOG with a PRIDE card and pays at gas stations from his own accounts.
Speeding fines under article 122 of the Code of Administrative Offenses are being levied against both the director and the brother — even on days when the brother could not physically have been driving. The Kyiv Research Institute of Forensic Expertise valued a comparable car on the date of use at 1 544 900 UAH. The brother's annual scholarship is 19 thousand. NACP's conclusion: the car could have been purchased with the director's money, there was use, and the car is not in the declaration.
The second car is sister Viktoriia's Mitsubishi Outlander (2012). The director was the registered user during several periods, including from June to December 2024. There are dozens of speeding fines for that car. Experts valued a comparable vehicle at 387,6 thousand UAH. Also not in the declaration.
Cash that should not have existed after loans to the plant
At the end of 2024 Pylypchuk declared 1,5 million UAH in cash — the same amount that appeared in the declaration for 2020 after the sale of an Audi Q7. The NACP says: after the plant's tranches, such savings could not have existed as of 31 December. Separately not shown were 129 142 UAH in accounts at Oschadbank, Cominbank and Raiffeisen and those banks themselves in the institutions section.
Smaller items, but also in the report: foreign passports in the name PYLYPCHUK SERHII he marked as “data absent.” He listed the Kyiv apartment used by his mother with a different date and area 67 instead of 69,41 sq. m. Where he lived in Mykolaiv while running the plant, the agency never determined — there is no housing in the region in the declaration. He showed salary from the plant as 379 705 UAH paid instead of 536 137 accrued.
The NACP must notify Pylypchuk and his management, give them the opportunity to submit a declaration with full data, and publish the report. 10,26 million and part 2 of article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine — this is no longer a “forgotten account.” This is the director of a state plant who lends his enterprise millions without disclosure in the declaration, drives his brother's Audi without a license, and does not respond to the anti-corruption authority.
