The Adidas sports brand has returned to Kharkiv after a four-year hiatus; a discount store has opened at 199 Heroiv Kharkiva Street, according to a post on LinkedIn by Igor Marinich, CEO of Adidas Ukraine.
“After four years in a ‘frozen’ state since the start of the full-scale war, we are once again opening our doors to all our customers and athletes in our wonderful, athletic, incredibly brave, and Ukrainian city of heroes—Kharkiv!” he wrote.
Marinich also emphasized that the safety of employees and customers remains a key priority for the company.
As reported, in February 2024, Adidas closed all its retail locations in Ukraine due to the security situation, but began restoring the network’s operations as early as July 2022. In Kharkiv, the brand’s stores had previously also operated in the “Karavan” and “Dafi” shopping centers.
In Ukraine, the chain is managed by the state-owned enterprise “Adidas-Ukraine,” which is owned by Adidas AG. According to OpenDataBot, by the end of 2025, the company increased its revenue by 28% to 2,996,893,000 UAH, while net profit halved to 43.310 million UAH in 2025 compared to 94.205 million UAH in 2024.
JSC “Ukrenergomashiny” (Kharkiv), more than 75.22% of which is owned by the state, will pay out nearly UAH 2,305,000 (or 75% of its net profit) between October 1 and 29 of this year based on its 2025 performance.
According to a notice published in the disclosure system of the National Securities and Stock Market Commission, the relevant decision was adopted by the general meeting of shareholders on April 29, and on June 10, a list of persons entitled to receive dividends, as well as the procedure and deadline for their payment, was drawn up.
Dividends will be paid at a rate of 0.0055 UAH per share with a par value of 0.25 UAH.
As reported, UAH 1.73 million in dividends will be paid to the state-owned share.
JSC “Ukrenergomashiny” (formerly JSC ‘Turboatom’ and “Elektrovazhmash”) is Ukraine’s sole manufacturer of turbine equipment for hydroelectric, thermal, and nuclear power plants. It also manufactures, among other things, electric motors for rail and urban transport (the “Elektrovazhmash” product line).
In 2025, the company increased its net sales revenue by 32.9% compared to 2024—to UAH 1.06 billion, while net profit increased 3.5-fold—to UAH 3.07 million.
In addition to the state, the company’s shareholders (according to the NSSMC as of the first quarter of 2026) include the “Seventh” investment fund—managed by the asset management company “Svarog Asset Management” and linked to entrepreneur Kostyantyn Hryhoryshyn—holding 15.3416% of the shares, non-resident Valery Valandin – 5.598% of shares.

On June 12, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) plans to approve a loan of up to EUR 15 million for Kharkiv to restore heat supply following critical damage in February 2026 to the city’s largest combined heat and power plant, CHPP-5.
According to the bank’s materials, the financing is planned to be used to purchase up to 22 small and medium-sized modular gas-fired boiler houses with cogeneration units, as well as five small cogeneration units for existing boiler houses.
The loan is part of a broader EUR32 million package, which also includes an investment grant from the European Union (EU) of up to EUR17 million.
Given the war risks, the EBRD loan is also expected to receive a partial EU guarantee to cover first-loss risk.
According to the EBRD’s estimates, the project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 19,100 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per year.
It is noted that the project is expected to restore access to basic heat supply services for a broad and vulnerable group of consumers, including 99,300 residents—more than 16,500 of whom are internally displaced persons (IDPs)—as well as 23 educational institutions and seven medical facilities.
According to the EBRD, as of early 2026, 212,000 IDPs were officially registered in Kharkiv.
The project is being implemented under the Resilience and Livelihoods Facility (RLF) program.
