About the company OMZ (pref)

Security page

United Heavy Machinery Plants (OMZ) is a group of heavy engineering enterprises that produces equipment for nuclear power, petrochemicals and metallurgy. Its products are one-off items that weigh tens of tonnes. The preferred shares trade under the ticker OMZZP.

What the company does

Heavy engineering is made-to-order manufacturing. A reactor vessel or a chemical process unit takes years to build to the documentation of a specific project: there is no series production here at all, and each item requires its own tooling and testing.

This shapes how the business is valued: what matters is not a single year's revenue but the order book and its structure. Nuclear equipment is the most complex and the longest-running part: several years pass between the signing of a contract and shipment, and throughout that time production carries the costs.

Customers are few and tied to state programmes: the nuclear industry and petrochemical projects. This makes demand predictable for years ahead, but it also leaves that demand dependent on other parties' investment decisions.

Business review

Strengths and weaknesses describe the business itself. Opportunities and threats describe what may happen around it.

Strengths

  • Expertise in heavy engineering is rare and cannot be reproduced quickly.
  • The construction of nuclear power plants at home and abroad brings long-running orders.
  • Import substitution in petrochemical equipment widens the customer base.
  • The order book is known for years ahead, which makes planning easier.

Weaknesses

  • The manufacturing cycle for heavy equipment stretches over years.
  • Capacity utilisation depends on a handful of large contracts.
  • The production sites require costly modernisation.
  • A preferred share carries the right to a dividend, but not to a say in how the company is run.

Opportunities

  • The replacement of imported heavy equipment widens the range of orders.
  • The construction of nuclear units at home and abroad brings long contracts.
  • State support programmes for the engineering industry finance modernisation.
  • The exit of foreign suppliers has opened up niches in heavy engineering.

Threats

  • Orders follow the investment cycle of the power industry, and that cycle stretches over years.
  • Metal and components rise in price faster than contract prices are revised.
  • Long projects stretch out the payback on the capital invested.
  • Sanctions restrict participation in foreign projects.

Frequently asked questions

What does the OMZ group do?

It makes heavy equipment to order: vessel products for nuclear power plants, process units for petrochemicals, and machinery for metallurgical enterprises.

Why is there no series production in heavy engineering?

Because each item is made for a specific project to that project's documentation: the reactor of one plant does not fit another. The tooling, the process and the testing are developed from scratch almost every time.

Why does the order book matter more than annual revenue?

An item takes years to manufacture, and revenue is recognised as the work progresses. A good year says nothing about the future if the order book is empty, and vice versa.

Issuer profile

What the company does

The company is classified under the «Industrials» sector, using the taxonomy we apply when comparing securities with one another.

The same sector holds 22 issuers on the platform, and their figures are computed by one method — so this company's revenue, profit and leverage can be compared with them directly.

The company is registered in Russia and identified in regulatory disclosure by tax number 6663059899. That number locates its statements in state registries regardless of how its name is spelled — and the spelling differs even between official documents.

Listed securities

The issuer has 1 security listed: 1 share class. All are shown on this page, including those trading in different modes and different currencies.

Across Moscow Exchange quotation list levels the securities split as follows: 1 at level 3. The level reflects how strict the disclosure, turnover and track-record requirements the issue meets are — not how attractive the investment is.

Dividend history

Between 2019 and 2026 the issuer made 6 payouts whose record date has already passed. A board recommendation or a forecast does not enter this history, because no money has been paid on them yet.

The most recent payout was 0.01 ₽ per OMZZP security (2026) with a record date of 9 July 2026. That is the amount before tax: the broker withholds it on crediting, so less arrives in the account.

Financial statements

The most recent annual report we hold is for 2025 under RAS. The standard is named for a reason: IFRS and RAS compute the same quantities by different rules, disagree by design and are never averaged.

Revenue for 2025 was 150.63M ₽.

That is 65.9 % less than in 2024, when revenue was 441.70M ₽. The comparison stays within one reporting standard — otherwise the decline could turn out to be a change of accounting rules and nothing more.

Net income for 2025 was 1.13B ₽.

Of every unit of revenue, 753.1 % remained as net income. This is the ratio of two figures already named above rather than a separate line from the report: comparing it across companies is meaningful only within one sector and one reporting standard.

Equity stands at 40.32B ₽ against total assets of 41.64B ₽. The difference between the two is the company's liabilities, and the larger it is relative to equity, the more the business depends on borrowed money.
