Russian Enterprise Net Profit Falls 15.7% in Jan-Jul 2026

Rosstat reports Russian enterprises' net profit fell 15.7% year-on-year to 13.0 trillion rubles in Jan-Jul 2026, signaling sustained economic strain. The decline likely reflects sanctions pressure, weak demand, and high borrowing costs, though sectoral breakdown is absent. This is a continuation of a deteriorating trend, not a new shock.
