Vladimir Yevtushenkov, who owns 43% of the Ozon online store, told reporters about the interest shown by the world’s largest online retailer Amazon to participate in the capital of the Russian company. Earlier, AFK Sistema talked about the possibility of an IPO of Ozon in 2020-2021. Now AFK Sistema is looking for opportunities to attract investors to Ozon. According to Vladimir Yevtushenkov, “interest in Ozon from foreign investors is very high. Ozon is the only company in Russia that Amazon has become interested in and considers it in terms of participation. ” According to Yevtushenkov, Ozon is a stone’s throw from profitability and is perfectly prepared for an IPO. It is important for AFK Sistema to choose the right moment for an IPO in order to conduct it with maximum efficiency. Earlier it was reported that SoftBank showed interest in acquiring a stake in Ozon, and recently, Sberbank is considering the possibility of its participation in the capital of Ozon.
