As a result of these agreements, PPF Group’s shareholdings in Home Credit B.V. and Air Bank a.s. increased by 2% to 88.62%, while at the same time PPF Group’s shareholding in Eldorado, the Russian electronics retailer, decreased by one fifth to 80%. The demerger of O2 Czech Republic into two companies, CETIN (Czech Telecommunications Infrastructure) and O2 as telecommuniations retail operator, came into effect as of June 1, 2015. CETIN operates the largest data and communications network, covering the whole territory of the Czech Republic, while O2 offers its services to end users in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. From PPF Group’s viewpoint, the relationship between PPF and O2 operator is one of financial investment; PPF Group does not play any role in the commercial management of the company. PPF Group completed the sale of its equity interest in insurance JV GPH to the Italian Generali Group. PPF Group received EUR 1.245 billion for its remaining 24% stake in GPH. The completion of this transaction with Generali marks the successful end of a period of almost 20 year during which PPF operated in the insurance industry in the Czech Republic and CEE. PPF Group keeps its presence in the area of insurance. PPF is successfully developing both PPF Life Insurance, its life insurance business in Russia, and its non-life insurance business, which has been integrated successfully into Home Credit Group’s offering. 2014 In line with its agreement with its business partners, PPF Group sold its shares in Energy and industrial holding (EPH) back to EPH. PPF Group’s equity investment into EPH back in 2009, as well as the Group’s important contributions to EPH as a major shareholder, significantly contributed to building up EPH into one of the biggest players in the energy sector in Central Europe (the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Germany). PPF Group acquired a minority stake in OriBase Pharma, a biotechnology company based in France which specialises in the development of new therapies in oncology. Over the course of 2014, the main biotechnology investment of PPF Group, SOTIO, also continued to research next-generation therapies. SOTIO became the first Czech company to initiate a global “Phase III” clinical trial for its active cellular immunotherapy treatment for prostate cancer. At the end of the year 2013 PPF Group has agreed to acquire a 65.9% shareholding in Telefónica Czech Republic, a.s., including its 100%-owned subsidiary Telefónica Slovakia, from Telefónica, S.A., for a total consideration of CZK 63.6 billion (€2,467 million).

It hosts dozens of world-class sporting and cultural events, to which it welcomes hundreds of thousands of people every year. PPF Group develops its insurance business in Russia under two brands, Home Credit Insurance and PPF Life Insurance. Home Credit Insurance, a member of Home Credit Group, focuses on non-life insurance, and PPF Life Insurance continues working on its core market. In March, PPF and Jiří Šmejc have signed an agreement on division of their assets: Jiří Šmejc gains direct stakes in Home Credit Group (13.37%) and in Air Bank (13.37%). The remaining 86.63% in both companies is owned by PPF Group N.V.

In January, Energy and Industrial Holding (EPH) has undertaken the largest Czech foreign investment ever by buying 49% stake in Slovakia's SPP, alongside with managing control of the company - for EUR 2.6 billion. SPP is the largest energy asset in Slovakia, being also a strategic distributor of natural gas from Russia to the EU. In January PPF Group has come to the agreement with Generali on selling its 49% stake in insurance JV Generali PPF Holding (GPH). As part of this agreement, PPF has acquired from GPH a 100% stake in dynamically growing insurance assets in Russia and other CIS countries.

PPF Group sold a part of its Real Estate portfolio, comprised of 19 office buildings in the Czech Republic, to CPI Group, in line with its focus on new development projects rather than facility management. PPF Group and Igor Yakovlev, the founder of Eldorado, executed a transaction, which led to PPF Group gaining full control over a major Russian electronics and domestic appliances retail chain.
