“The largest contribution is represented by the revenue from gas sales (RON6,683.05 million in the first half of 2022 as compared with RON1,965.74 million in the first half of 2021). Another significant contribution to the increase of income is the revenue from electricity sales (RON498.58 million as compared with RON42.75 million),” Romgaz’s report says.
Total expenses increased by 309% in the first half, mainly because of higher royalty expenses (+ RON734.01 million) and to the windfall tax (+ RON3,457.16 million).
“A new windfall tax was introduced in the second quarter of 2022, related to electricity sales, the amount of such windfall tax was RON62.84 million.”
