The company believes that the government will repay the debt later.
One of the largest Ukrainian infrastructure construction companies, Autostrada (Autostrada), continues to perform work at all of its facilities in accordance with approved schedules, despite the suspension of state funding. This was reported by the company's owner, Maksym Shkyl.
According to him, Autostrada expects the state to settle the debt after international financing arrives.
“We are doing everything we can to protect people and critical infrastructure facilities. We understand the difficult situation with state finances. Autostrada continues to perform work at all facilities according to the approved schedules. We assume that the state will fulfill its obligations to the industry for the already completed work after international financial assistance arrives,” he noted.
Recall that two weeks ago Maksym Shkyl stated that his company had suspended work at all facilities in Ukraine due to the government halting capital expenditures. He emphasized that salaries in entire sectors of the economy, loan interest payments, and payments to suppliers are the main pain points — and not only for deputies or the Ministry of Finance. According to him, businesses are simply being confronted with the fact.
Autostrada is involved in building the subway in Vinohradar, along Kharkiv Highway, and in repairing the interchange near the Chernihivska metro station. For January–June 2026 year, LLC GK Autostrada received 2,4 million UAH in net profit, almost 38 times less than in the same period last year (91,1 million UAH). The company’s net revenue declined from 5,13 billion UAH to 1,92 billion UAH.
Previously, the Ministry of Finance pushed back by December 39 billion UAH of capital expenditures that were to be funded in September, October, and November.
