At the same time average prices denominated in US Dollar decreased by 15%.
Net sales of gas to Former Soviet Union countries increased by RUB 7,477 million, or 2%, to RUB 356,102 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. The change was mainly due to the increase in volumes of gas sold by 2%, or 0.6 bcm.

The increase was mainly due to the recognition of income from change in provision for post-employment benefits for the year ended December 31, 2018 caused by the increase in a retirement age according to the legislation of the Russian Federation.
The item “Foreign exchange differences on operating items” increased by RUB 106,316 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31 ,2018 due to the revaluation of accounts receivable from foreign customers and loans issued, which was mainly caused by the depreciation of the US Dollar and the Euro against the Russian Ruble by 11 % and 13 %, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the appreciation of the US Dollar and the Euro against the Russian Ruble by 21 % and 15 %, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The item “Depreciation” increased by RUB 67,236 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the year ended December 31,2018, that was mainly due to charging of depreciation of right-of-use assets caused by the application of IFRS 16 Leases since January 1, 2019.
