GLONASS JSC

Since 2018, GLONASS JSC has been ensuring the development and operation of the ERA-GLONASS State Automated Information System (GAIS) entirely at its own expense. The annual cost of operation and development of GAIS “ERA-GLONASS” is about 1.5 billion rubles.

At the same time, the revenue of GLONASS JSC directly depends on the state of the Russian automotive market, which fell by 60.8 percent in 2022 (according to the data of the Association of European Businesses for 10 months of 2022). Automotive market forecasts for 2023, including those available in open sources, assume the state of the market at the level of 2022 or a market drop of another 10-20%.
