Surgutneftegas, the country's fourth-largest oil company, reported an 81 percent year-on-year rise in 2011 net profit to 233.16 billion rubles ($7.93 billion), the company said Thursday.
The results are to Russian accounting standards. Surgut is expected to start to disclose its financials to international standards starting from 2013 at the latest.
Troika Dialog analysts say that as per the Surgut's policy, the dividend on preferred shares will come to 2.15 rubles per share, for a 10.3 percent yield.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
