Yandex NV comments on corporate restructuring

Amsterdam, May 25, 2023 – As announced in November, the Board of Directors of Yandex’s Dutch parent company has commenced a restructuring process. We are progressing on plans for the divestment of ownership and control of a number of our core businesses, including all Russia-based businesses, and have received proposals from a number of potential investors. The Board also aims to enable the international divisions of certain services (self-driving, cloud computing, data labeling and ed-tech) to develop independently from the Russia-based businesses.

Our goal is to bring a restructuring proposal to shareholders for approval later this year.

In response to recent press coverage, which contains a number of inaccuracies, the Board is able to confirm the following:

  • The proposals are for the acquisition of an economic interest in the businesses, with control remaining in the hands of management.
  • The Board has not yet made a decision on the investment proposals.
  • Any transaction will be done in strict compliance with all applicable sanctions requirements.
  • The Board is still analyzing numerous options that could potentially be offered to the existing shareholders in the context of the restructuring; this analysis is ongoing.

Once the details are finalized, the company will publish a shareholder circular and the proposed restructuring will then be subject to shareholder approval (including separate approval of Class A shareholders).
