With the war approaching the middle of its second year, Ukraine continues to demonstrate an incredible resilience. Because of the war, our workforce is very different today and our operations have changed, too, adapting to become more nimble and responsive to different challenges as they develop. I believe that our business is the right size in the current environment. We are able to respond to market conditions and remain cash flow positive.
Our financial performance is testament to the resilience of our workforce. Improvements in sales volumes and prices helped lift revenues, reduce unit costs and increase our net cash position, all whilst continuing to invest in the business. Indeed, remaining profitable has allowed us to continue our humanitarian support, funding USD 19 million for 70-plus projects and initiatives, including provision of shelter, food and medical supplies, partnering with authorities, and donating equipment and supplies. We are proud of our achievements, and we are ready to play our part in the construction of Ukraine. [Foreign Language].
