Lebedyansky, which makes baby food and mineral water for the Russian market, is also the country’s largest juice manufacturer.


The company posted an 84% slump in operating profit to US$5.5m due to higher raw material and packaging costs, as well as increased spending on advertising.


Revenue was up 17% to $245.3m as sales of baby food, water and juice all rose.


The results come as Lebedyansky gets ready for the proposed spin off of its baby food and water operations.
