"Paying dividends, Utair wants to attract even more loans," - Gusarov, avia.ru

About UTAIR plans for 2009:
The fact that Utair decided to pay dividends is very good for her. In the aviation industry, everything is kept on credit funds. Therefore, by paying dividends, Utair shows potential creditors that it is successful and financially wealthy, which means that it will be able to attract even more money in the future. The intention of the company to purchase fifteen-50-seater aircraft Bombardier or Embraer is also quite justified-now is the time to change the outdated near-sealing aircraft "An-24" and "Yak-40", since many competitors of UTAIR refused to procure, and do not need to stand in line for equipment. As for the predictions of the top management of Utair about the tenfold growth of net profit for 2009, they, of course, look strange. I can only assume that this year the airline ends the period of payment of leasing payments, hence the growth of net profit.
