Financial Highlights and Full-Year Outlook

(CZK bn) H1/2023 H1/2024 Diff %
Operating revenues 169.7 161.7 -8.0 -5%
EBITDA 62.4 69.2 +6.8 +11%

Financial Outlook for the Full Year 2024

  • EBITDA is expected at CZK 118-122 bn.
  • Net income adjusted for extraordinary effects is estimated at CZK 25-30 bn.
  • * Adjusted net income = Net income adjusted for extraordinary effects that are generally unrelated to ordinary financial performance in a given period (in particular fixed asset impairments and goodwill write-off).
  • ** The significant year-on-year decrease in operating cash flow is due to a specific income in H1 2023, when CEZ Group recovered CZK 53.6 bn from temporary margin deposits on commodity exchanges and from trading parties in pre-sales of generation (mainly in 2022) as a result of a significant decrease in forward electricity prices in H1 2023, as well as gradual realization of supply from generation at historically lower contracted prices.

Main Causes of Year-over-Year Change in EBITDA

GENERATION Segment – Generating facilities (CZK +8.5 bn)

  • Levy on revenues above price caps from generation in Czechia in H1 2023 (CZK +11.1 bn)
  • Lower availability of nuclear facilities especially due to planned outages (CZK -2.0 bn)

GENERATION Segment – Trading (CZK -3.2 bn)

  • Lower proprietary trading margin (CZK -1.3 bn): profit of CZK 3.9 bn in H1 2024 compared to profit of CZK 5.2 bn in H1 2023
  • Other trade and intragroup effects (CZK -1.9 bn), in particular temporary revaluation of derivative transactions hedging generation and sales for future periods

MINING Segment (CZK -1.5 bn) – lower external sales due to lower coal supplies

DISTRIBUTION Segment (CZK +1.4 bn)

  • High negative correction factor in H1 2023 (CZK +1.0 bn) elimination of part of the revenues from 2021 in connection with the higher volume of electricity distributed to households during the Covid pandemic
  • Other effects (CZK +0.4 bn) mainly higher allowed revenues reflecting higher investment in distribution assets

* Mainly the elimination of the effect of hedging the currency risks of ČEZ ESCO (SALES segment) through ČEZ, a. s. (GENERATION segment), where the effect is reported under other income (expenses) (outside EBITDA).

Main Causes of Year-over-Year Change in Net Income

(CZK bn) H1/2023 H1/2024 Diff %

* Including income/loss from asset sales, depreciation and amortization of suspended investments and goodwill

Modified Financial Outlook for 2024: EBITDA CZK 118–122 bn, adjusted net income CZK 25–30 bn

EBITDA (CZK bn)

Adjusted net income (CZK bn)

Main causes of adjustments in EBITDA outlook compared to the outlook of May 14:

  • + Higher profit from commodity trading
  • + Lower deviation costs for customer consumption
  • + Higher expected deployment of coal-fired power plants
  • + Lower fixed operating expenses

Outlook for adjusted net profit remains unchanged

▪ Increase in the projected EBITDA is almost eliminated by higher expected income taxes

Selected generation assumptions in the current prediction:

  • Total electricity supply from generation in Czechia ~43 TWh
  • Average realized price of electricity generated in Czechia EUR 132 to 136 per MWh
  • Accelerated depreciation and amortization for coal-fired power plants
  • Windfall tax of CZK 27–34 bn

Selected prediction risks and opportunities:

  • Availability of generating facilities
  • Realized prices of generated electricity
  • Profit from commodity trading and revaluation of derivatives
  • Amount of the windfall tax and deferred taxes

The given predictions of EBITDA 2024 do not include the contribution of the potential purchase of a stake in Czech Gas Networks. The transaction is subject to the approval of the European Commission.

Selected Events in the Past Quarter

The government decided that negotiations on the construction of new nuclear facilities in Dukovany will be initiated by CEZ Group with the South Korea's company KHNP.

  • In accordance with the plan, on June 14, CEZ Group sent to the Czech government the notice on the evaluation of bids, incl. recommendation of the preferred bidder for the construction project of new nuclear facilities in Czechia.
  • On July 17, the Czech government decided that the South Korea's company Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Company (KHNP) is the preferred bidder.
  • The companies Elektrárna Dukovany II and ČEZ started negotiations on the construction of two units in Dukovany and the possibility of contracting binding options for the construction of additional nuclear facilities in Temelín. Framework agreements with the state envisage the conclusion of the contract for the construction of the new facilities in Dukovany in Q1 2025. CEZ Group continues negotiations with the state on the terms of financing the new units.

In the area of sustainability, CEZ Group ranked among the top 10% of companies in the world.

  • In April, CEZ Group surpassed the 90th percentile in the overall ranking of companies according to the global ESG rating aggregator CSR Hub.
  • CSR Hub evaluates approximately 37 thousand companies based on adjusted aggregated evaluations from about 30 international ESG agencies.

The ICC Arbitration Tribunal forbade Gazprom to continue legal proceedings against ČEZ at the St. Petersburg Commercial Court.

▪ Gazprom is bound by an arbitration clause previously concluded with ČEZ stipulating that all disputes between ČEZ and Gazprom related to gas supplies will be resolved in arbitration at the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce) in Geneva.

Since June, ČEZ Prodej has reduced prices for 1.7 mil customers with non-fixed price contracts. Fixed price contracts were reduced already in May.

  • Prices of gas supplies without price fixing were reduced from June 1 to the level of 1,479 CZK/MWh excl. VAT, which is a decrease of approximately 17%. The price of electricity without price fixing for the most common rate D02 is CZK 3,595/MWh excl. VAT from July 1, which is a decrease of more than 9%.
  • From May 1, households may procure electricity 2-year fixed-price contracts for an average of CZK 3,124/MWh excl. VAT and 3-year contracts for CZK 2,983/MWh excl. VAT. The average price of gas in 2-year fixed-price contracts fell to 1,298 CZK/MWh excl. VAT.

In H1, ČEZ Distribuce connected 15,447 photovoltaic power plants with an installed capacity of 321.6 MW.

  • A total of 119,908 photovoltaic power plants with an installed capacity of 2,219 MW are currently connected to the ČEZ Distribuce network.
  • ČEZ Distribuce invested CZK 8.8 bn in H1, which is a year-over-year increase of CZK 1.6 bn, mainly thanks to the increase in customer requests for the connection of new renewable sources.

Volume of electricity and gas sold; the number of customers Czechia – Retail

Total electricity and natural gas supply decreased by 15% year-over-year (TWh)

  • The year-over-year decrease in commodity supplies was significantly affected by warm weather in H1 2024, when the average temperature was almost 2°C above the 2023 level. For instance, the average temperature in February was 6°C above the long-term average, causing the supply of heating commodities to fall significantly.
  • The slight decrease in the number of customers reflects the significant volatility of commodities, the competitive environment in Czechia, and the overall stabilization of ČEZ Prodej portfolio after acquiring the portfolio of the former Bohemia Energy.

Emissions from electricity and heat generation

CO2e emission intensity of electricity and heat generation (t CO2e/MWh)

Expected CEZ Group's emission intensity for electricity and heat generation for 2024 of 0.27 t CO2e/MWh corresponds to:

  • 77% of the emissions of the new CCGT power plant
  • 49% of emissions produced by the marginal generating facility determining the current electricity market prices in Germany

Sulfur dioxide (SO2 ), nitrogen oxides (NOx ), (thousand tons)

In H1 2024:

  • SO2 emissions were 2,100 t and decreased by 19% year-over-year
  • NOX emissions were 5,200 t and decreased by 2% year-over-year

Status of price risk hedging of the generation margin in Czechia and expected realized price of generation for 2024

Electricity – share of hedged supplies from generation in Czechia

Electricity – status of generation revenue hedging* in Czechia

  • As at June 30, 41.6 TWh sold at an average realized price of EUR ~131 per MWh
  • Average expected realized price for 100% supply of generated electricity** is EUR 132-136 per MWh.
  • Current open position assumption of ~1.1 TWh

Emission allowances – status of generation hedging in Czechia

Emission allowances – status of generation expenses hedging* in Czechia

  • As at June 30, 13.1 mil. t contracted at an average purchase price of EUR ~79 per t.
  • Current open position assumption of ~0 t

  • * This is the hedging of the generation margin in ČEZ and Energotrans.

  • ** This is the result of hedging transactions and the current market valuation of electricity not yet sold and of emission allowances not acquired for expected generation in 2024. Some of the hedging contracts for electricity sales (mainly from gas and some coal-fired facilities) and the purchase of emission allowances, are continuously revalued in the P/L statement due to uncertain final supplies.

Definitions and Calculations of Indicators Unspecified in IFRS

In accordance with the ESMA guidelines, ČEZ informs in more detail about indicators that are not normally part of the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Such indicators represent supplementary information in respect of financial data, providing report users with additional information for their assessment of the financial position and performance of CEZ Group. In general, these indicators are also commonly used in other commercial companies, not only in the energy sector.

Below are the definitions of individual indicators, including the specification of components that are not directly available in the financial statements or notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Indicator
EBITDA Purpose: It is a basic indicator of the operational
performance of publicly traded companies, which is
monitored by international analysts, creditors, investors and
shareholders. The EBITDA value indicates the basic
generated cash flow from operating activities for the past
period, i.e., it is the basic source for investment and financial
expenses.
Definition: Included in the notes to the consolidated financial
statements, the point "Information on segments".
Adjusted Net Income
(After-Tax Income, Adjusted)
Purpose: This is a supporting indicator, intended primarily for
investors, creditors and shareholders, which allows
interpreting the achieved financial results with the exclusion
of extraordinary, usually nonrecurring effects that are
generally unrelated to ordinary financial performance and
value creation in a given period.
Definition: Net income (after-tax income) +/- additions to and
reversals of impairment of property, plant and equipment
and intangible assets, including impairment of goodwill +/-
additions to and reversals of impairments of developed
projects +/- other extraordinary effects that are generally
unrelated to ordinary financial performance and value
creation in a given period +/- effects of the above on income
tax.
Net Debt Purpose: The indicator shows the real level of a company's
financial debt, i.e., the carrying amount of debt net of cash,
cash equivalents, and highly liquid financial assets held. The
indicator is primarily used to assess the overall
appropriateness of the indebtedness, e.g., in comparison
with selected income or balance sheet indicators.
Definition: Long-Term Debt, Net of Current Portion + Current
Portion of Long-Term Debt + Short-Term Loans – (Cash and
Cash Equivalents + Highly Liquid Financial Assets).
The components of the indicator, except for Highly Liquid
Financial Assets, are reported individually on the balance
sheet, with items related to assets held for sale are
presented separately on the balance sheet.
Indicator
Net Debt / EBITDA Purpose: This indicates a company's capability to pay back
its debt as well as its ability to take on additional debt to
grow its business. CEZ Group uses this indicator primarily to
assess the adequacy of its capital structure to the structure
and stability of its expected cash flows.
Definition: Net Debt / EBITDA, where Net Debt is the amount
at the end of the reported period. EBITDA is the running total
for the past 12 months. June 30 value therefore contains Net
Debt as at June 30 and EBITDA for the period from July 1 of
the previous year until June 30 of the current year.

Most of the indicators' components are directly calculated in the consolidated financial statements. Components not included in the financial statements relate to the Adjusted net income and Net Debt indicators (including derived indicator Net Debt / EBITDA) and are calculated as follows:

Adjusted Net Income Indicator – calculation for period in question:

Adjusted Net Income (After-Tax Income, Adjusted) Unit H1
2023
H1
2024
Net income CZK billions 22.3 21.1
Impairment of property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets (including goodwill write-off) 1)
CZK billions 0.2 0.0
Impairments of developed projects 2) CZK billions
Effects of additions to or reversals of impairments
on income tax 3)
CZK billions -0.0 -0.0
Other extraordinary effects CZK billions
Adjusted net income CZK billions 22.5 21.1

1) Corresponds to the total value reported in the row Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets in the Consolidated Statement of Income

2) Included in the row Other operating expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income

3) Included in the row Income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Income

Highly Liquid Financial Assets – Component of the Net Debt Indicator (in CZK billions):

as at Dec 31, as at Jun 30,
2023 2024
Current debt financial assets 6.7 6.4
Noncurrent debt financial assets - -
Current term deposits - 0.0
Noncurrent term deposits 0.1 0.1
Short-term equity securities 0.0 -
Highly liquid financial assets, total 6.7 6.5

Totals and subtotals can differ from the sum of partial values due to rounding.
