Rusneftegaz has published a preliminary calendar for the next fiscal year, with the scheduled disclosure of our consolidated financial statements on 7 April 2022 acting as the main highlight of what is set to be a busy year for us. This is immediately followed by our Annual General Meeting later that same week, where we intend to convene with our key stakeholders to discuss both our short and long-term plans. At the moment, this it is currently due to be held on 10 April 2022, albeit this date is subject to change prior to any further announcements. Moreover, it is the intention of the board of directors to host attendees in-person at a venue, although our organization retains the contingency of holding the event virtually, as per the previous two conferences, if circumstances change. On a more routine basis we plan to continue distributing full quarterly production reports four weeks after the cessation of each period, but there may be discrepancies between the time this information is circulated to relevant parties and when this material is uploaded onto our website, particularly when considering the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
However, in the more immediate future it should also be noted that we will have a reduced capacity to respond to any nonessential matters, including via email and telephone, due to staff vacations occurring throughout the Christmas and New Year holiday. This disruption, which is expected to occur between 24 December 2021 and 10 January 2022, will not affect any of our other operations and will only impact our administrative functions. As a result, it is imperative that any correspondences be submitted to us as soon as possible to guarantee a response, although all messages received during this time will be monitored and receive a reply if necessary. At the end of this timeframe, we will strive to address all pending communications within one working day, as will all our affiliates and subsidiaries who are also affected by this. The new provisional calendar can be viewed in its entirety on our website, and whilst all the dates above are liable to be modified at the discretion of the board, management considers any major alterations unlikely in spite on the challenges of the past few years. Any queries regarding this announcement should be directed through the usual channels at your earliest convenience, principally to ensure an answer before our ability to do so is limited. We necessitate your cooperation and understanding regarding this pertinent topic.
