Russia's Yandex reports Q1 revenue rise as market awaits spin-off news

Russian internet giant Yandex reported a 40% rise in first-quarter revenue to 228.3 billion roubles ($2.47 billion), driven by growth in e-commerce and ride-hailing, with the market awaiting news on a much anticipated corporate spin-off. Yandex's Nasdaq-listed and Dutch-registered parent, Yandex NV, in February struck a $5.2-billion deal after months of negotiations to sell its assets in Russia at a heavily discounted price due to Kremlin demands on foreign asset sales. Yandex's search and portal business and entertainment services were also among the business lines to contribute to the revenue rise, Yandex said.
