Investor expectations, rather than fundamentals, are increasingly influencing the value of a company. At a time when nonfinancial assets are becoming an important component of determining the value of the company, the disclosure of non-financial statements as a source of more extensive and meaningful information than financial statements, is becoming an increasingly popular topic of discussion of the scientific and business communities. Non-financial reporting includes "various types of external reporting provided by organizations to their stakeholders and covering those aspects of the organizations that go beyond the historical framework of financial performance". The information contained in non-financial reports can help investors form an opinion about the intellectual, financial, natural, human and social capital of the company and make a decision about investing. In the developed world, the publication of nonfinancial statements has become a common norm, while in Russia only a small proportion of companies still issue this type of reporting. The study of publishing non-financial reports dedicated to both theoretical and empirical literature, most empirical studies showed a positive effect of issue of non-financial reporting on the financial stability of companies. However, these studies do not focus on the impact of the publication of non-financial statements on the financial performance of companies in Russia. The purpose of this article is to study the impact of the publication of non-financial statements on the financial performance of Russian companies with the identification of intersectoral features. As a result of this study, it will be possible to understand how the disclosure of non-financial information affects the financial performance of Russian companies. From a practical point of view, this can help managers of companies in various industries to realize the importance or, conversely, the absence of the need to publish non-financial statements as a factor that can increase the credibility of the company in the eyes of investors and positively affect the financial results.
A model has been developed for the optimization of the share structure of an investment portfolio in high-tech projects supported by the leaders of the leading industry companies in Russia. Several indicators (financial leverage, integrated rating of companies, industry rating) were applied in the decision support system for the shared distribution of investments. High-tech production is based on innovative technologies for saving resources, the resiliency of systems for transporting and transferring raw materials and finished products within Russia, so the main income will remain within the country. It is possible to export high-tech products, rather than raw materials, which will increase export revenues. Investors will invest in high-tech projects of Russian companies, taking into account the targeting of investment development. The guarantee is the stable financial position of the companies and the competitiveness rating. Methods: The authors propose a new approach that does not contradict modern rating scales, based on a hierarchical rating procedure and fuzzy logical rules that allow you to build an integral rating in the form of portfolio shares from the whole. A higher share shows an indicator of the higher investment attractiveness of companies. The industry rating is obtained based on the principle of the company’s first affiliation to the highest rating indicator. The final minimax portfolio is based on the initial ratings in a circular convolution and is then adjusted by industry. A software package has been compiled that allows the testing of the method of capital allocation between investment projects for the largest companies’ leaders of high-tech industries in Russia. This software uses the author’s method of multi-stage analysis, the evaluation of financial coefficients, the integral ranking and the correction of the solution taking into account the industry attributes. Results: The results are presented with computer-aided design (CAD) in the form of an algorithmized decision support system (DSS). The CAD system is based on a hierarchical algorithm, based on the use of a multi-level redistribution of investment shares of high-tech companies, taking into account the adaptation to the requirements of the return on investment portfolio. When compiling the portfolio, the minimax optimality criterion is applied, which allows the stabilization of the risk by purposefully redistributing funds between the companies involved in the analysis. The authors of the article have compiled an algorithm for the software implementation of the model. Features of the rating approach: the use of the author’s mathematical apparatus, which includes a hierarchical analysis of the ranked indicators of the financial and economic activity of companies, taking into account their priority, and the use of a minimax approach to obtain a rating assessment of companies, taking into account the industry attributes. Development: The proposed approach should be used for targeted financing of large industry companies engaged in the implementation of high-tech projects.
The article shows that the implementation of Industry 4.0 will be implemented in many sectors of the global economy, including the coal industry. In Russia, “positive” experience has been accumulated in connection with the implementation of the Smart Mine and Smart Cut projects. The purpose of this article is to identify trends in the innovative development of the mining industry, as well as to systematize the basic elements of the Industry 4.0 project on basic mining processes. In the process of the study, the authors of the article prepared an enlarged systematization of technological solutions for the mining industry, which corresponds to the main directions of the global Industry-4.0 project and allows us to proceed with the formation of a technological platform that includes the need to implement the projects “Virtual Mine of the Future” and “Virtual Section of the Future”.
The article focuses on the dynamics and structure of fixed investments in the Russian Federation in the period of 2011-2019, analyses both the destabilizing factors, and those, having beneficial impact on the use of a wide range of financial mechanisms in financing projects on petrochemical companies' development. It evaluates the competitiveness of petrochemical companies in the Russian Federation and abroad, for the current period and until 2030, according to the strategy of industry development. It outlines the investment potential of the industry and provides conclusion on the need to develop the use of mechanisms for financing innovative subprojects of petrochemical industry companies. All conclusions in the article are illustrated with relevant examples.
