Carlsberg, the number one beer maker in Russia as the owner of Baltika, joined other global brands to say it will exit the Russian market. Carlsberg earned 7% of its operating profit and 10% of its revenue from Russia in 2021.

Carlsberg CARL.B, +3.47%, the number one beer maker in Russia as the owner of Baltika, said it’s seeking a full disposal of its Russian business. The business will be traded as an asset held for sale until it’s done so, which will result in a “substantial” impairment charge, Carlsberg said.

Carlsberg earned 682 million kroner from Russia on revenue of 6.5 billion kroner last year, or 7% of its operating profit and 10% of its revenue. Heineken HEIA, -0.07% said it will take a charge of about 400 million euros for an “orderly transfer of our business to a new owner in full compliance with international and local laws.” Heineken had previously announced that it won’t profit from its Russia business and stopped advertising in the country.
