CEZ Group 2022 Annual Financial Report

to energy security leading through strong and decisive action

sníži

The attention of politicians, companies, and the general public has turned to the issue of energy security in the wake of the military invasion of Ukraine and the profound energy crisis that struck Europe in 2022. Providing sufficient, clean, reliable, and affordable energy is a fundamental challenge. CEZ Group is doing its utmost to ensure that Czechia has a secure supply of electricity, gas, and heat for everyone, i.e., for residential customers, businesses, hospitals, schools, cultural institutions, and authorities.

Some of the necessary steps needed to be taken immediately. We have secured the supply of nuclear fuel and the maintenance of generating facilities despite restrictions and sanctions, thus enabling record generation from nuclear facilities. We hold nuclear fuel stocks for three years ahead. We have increased coal extraction so that there is enough coal for both heating plants and residential customers. We have ensured gas supplies from non-Russian sources through an LNG terminal that was commissioned just six months after the invasion. We have thus secured capacity equivalent to a third of our country's consumption and have contributed to filling gas reserves before winter, not only in Czechia.

Our "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow" strategy strongly supports Czechia's energy security and sovereignty by strengthening the role of nuclear energy, massive construction of renewable energy sources, and development of new technologies in the field of storage, emission-free generation, clean transport, and installation of heat pumps. CEZ Group is part of the solution adopted by Czechia and European countries to strengthen energy self-sufficiency.

We have taken a number of steps now; the others follow

We support energy savings and energy security in Europe

The situation in the energy market is complex and we need to prepare for a wide range of future scenarios. We help our customers with energy savings and support European measures to ensure that Russian supplies of gas and other commodities are replaced as soon as possible at affordable prices. As early as 2022, we managed to contract new non-Russian nuclear fuel supplies for the Temelín power plant and secured operation and maintenance of all our generating facilities despite restrictions and sanctions following the invasion of Ukraine.

1. CEZ Group Introduction and Highlights Introduction by the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer

Dear shareholders,

The past year of 2022 was marked by an unprecedented energy crisis that affected everyone's lives. The war in Ukraine and the confluence of a number of other factors have resulted in energy market prices rising to historic highs. This was mainly due to the restriction of gas supplies from Russia and the resulting surge in the cost of generating electricity from emission generating sources, as well as the general uncertainty in Europe. The sanctions adopted by the European Union against Russia and Russia's reaction have subsequently led to a major reduction in Europe's trade and payment relations with Russia. The panic on the markets culminated in August when the price of natural gas on the main European commodity exchanges broke the EUR 300/MWh mark. Yet the collapse of a number of energy suppliers in Czechia due to soaring commodity prices had already occurred in the autumn of 2021, when the market price rose to EUR 50/MWh. Compared to natural gas prices in 2020, prices increased up to 20 times. During 2022, the price of electricity on the wholesale markets followed the trend of natural gas prices and reached an extreme level of almost EUR 1,000/MWh in August, a yearon-year increase of more than tenfold.

It was necessary to take extraordinary measures very quickly within CEZ Group and ensure the energy security of Czechia. I am pleased to say that we were able to secure all nuclear fuel supplies and the necessary maintenance of all generating facilities. Thanks to this, we also achieved record generation at nuclear power plants, and thus made a major contribution to limiting the negative impact of the crisis on Czech companies and households. In addition, in June, four months after the invasion began, we succeeded in securing, together with the Czech state, significant capacity at the liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in Eemshaven, the Netherlands, including transport routes to Czechia. ČEZ has thus become able to import up to 3 billion m3 gas per year for 5 years, which will allow to cover one third of the Czech gas consumption. The floating LNG terminal, the first in Europe after the outbreak of war in Ukraine, was commissioned in record time on September 8.

In an emergency situation, our sales companies have shown responsibility by meeting all their commitments and, in addition, by taking care of many new customers whose suppliers refused to extend their contracts. They have ensured a reliable supply of electricity and gas thanks to their long-term strategy of phased commodity purchasing.

We have proven that ČEZ is a stable and reliable energy company in the economic area too, where we managed the enormous demands for hedging concluded commodity deals due to the difference between the contracted and high current market price of commodities. We were forced to send as much as hundreds of millions of EUR per day to the exchanges, similar to all major generators in Europe, and we took a number of complex measures during the year to ensure sufficient cash. With the extreme fluctuation in electricity prices in August, we were forced to replenish these margin deposits to almost CZK 200 billion. Despite this, we were able to pay a high dividend of CZK 48 per share to shareholders.

Thanks to the high availability of generating facilities, record profits from commodity trading, and the increase in realized generation prices in 2022, in particular, CEZ Group achieved a record profit which will enable us to pay the highest dividend in the Company's history in 2023.

In addition to ensuring sufficient energy for customers in Czechia, CEZ Group is also thinking about a clean future and reliability of electricity supply. That is why we have worked hard on preparing the building for a new nuclear power plant and accelerated the preparation of small modular reactors. Nuclear power is the future of Czechia, as confirmed also by surveys. Support among the Czech public reached a record high of 72% at the end of 2022, the highest since 1999, when IBRS agency began regularly surveying Czech attitudes towards nuclear power.

On March 17, Elektrárna Dukovany II, a wholly owned subsidiary of ČEZ, launched a tender for a contractor to build a new nuclear power plant. In November, it received initial bids from all three qualified bidders. All three bids met the defined conditions and are now undergoing a thorough evaluation. The new nuclear power plant should be commissioned for trial operation before 2040.

The selection of new nuclear fuel suppliers for Temelín power plant was another step towards strengthening energy security. The tender resulted in two suppliers, the US company Westinghouse and the French company Framatome, replacing the Russian TVEL, which will share the fuel assembly supply from 2024. We have also accomplished a lot in the field of small modular reactors. Space has already been allocated for the first small reactor in Czechia at the site of the Temelín nuclear power plant. Following this decision, the South Bohemian Nuclear Park was established, i.e., a contractual cooperation between ČEZ, ÚJV Řež group, and the South Bohemian Region. The first reactor could be started up as early as the mid-2030s. Other sites under consideration include Tušimice in North Bohemia and Dětmarovice in the Karviná District of the Moravian-Silesian Region.

We are also strengthening Czechia's energy security and self-sufficiency through other steps, one of which is the purchase of the major Czech engineering and manufacturing company ŠKODA JS from the Russian engineering group OMZ. This group was subject to European sanctions after the outbreak of war in Ukraine. The purchased company is largely responsible for modernizing and maintaining Czech nuclear power plants, in the construction of which it once played a significant role.

Despite an extremely challenging year, we are continuing to pursue decarbonization, and reducing CO2 emissions remains a priority for us. We are targeting the phase-out of coal-fired generation and a major conversion of our generation portfolio to low-emission. We intend to reduce the share of coal-fired generation in total electricity generation to 25% by 2025. We will phase out coal-fired power plants by 2038 at the latest, but probably much sooner.

CEZ Group is meeting its commitments to reduce all emissions in line with the Paris Agreement targets. CEZ Group's emission intensity in electricity and heat generation reached 0.29t CO2e/MWh in 2022, which is 83% of the emission intensity of new CCGT plants. In the area of emission-free sources development, we have the ambition to add a total of 6,000 MW of installed capacity of renewable primary photovoltaic sources by 2030. In early 2022, the European Commission approved the final form of the so-called taxonomy under the European Green Deal. We welcomed the temporary inclusion of nuclear and gas as clean energy sources. Especially because, besides renewables, nuclear power plants are Czechia's clean, emission-free future.

By continuing to optimize the operation of the Temelín and Dukovany power plants, we aim to gradually increase emission-free nuclear generation above 32 TWh in the long term while maintaining maximum safety and operational stability. It is an admirable achievement that the Czech nuclear power plants generated the highest amount of energy ever in 2022. The Temelín power plant delivered 16 TWh and the Dukovany power plant 15 TWh to the transmission grid, totaling 31 TWh of electricity, a year-on-year increase of almost 300 GWh.

We are serious about the development of renewable energy sources, and so we need to modernize CEZ Distribuce's distribution grid, which must be ready to accommodate a large number of new renewable energy sources. The European Investment Bank (EIB) has supported CEZ Group in this regard with a record EUR 790 million loan. This will contribute to Czechia's energy independence by enabling the connection of approximately 2.2 GW of new renewable energy sources. The loan will also support the implementation of the European Commission's REPowerEU package created in response to the conflict in Ukraine and designed to save power, produce clean energy, and diversify Europe's energy supply.

Interest in renewables has increased significantly in the wake of the energy crisis. Both ČEZ Prodej and ČEZ ESCO have registered high increases in demand. I am pleased to see that both our companies are the right choice for our customers and that thousands of people are approaching them with confidence for installation. For reference, ČEZ Prodej installed a total of 4,102 rooftop photovoltaic plants in Czech households in 2022, compared to 1,514 photovoltaic plants in 2021. The total capacity of household solar power plants increased roughly fourfold in 2022.

In 2022, we made significant progress in fulfilling our strategic commitment and public pledges in all three ESG sustainability areas: Environmental, Social, and Governance. The positive development in this area is confirmed by renowned international rating agencies. ČEZ has already ranked among the top 30% in ESG. It was the first company in Central Europe to issue green bonds, the yield of which is linked to meeting the 2025 emission intensity reduction target. ČEZ has also taken a significant step in the field of climate protection. It signed a Memorandum on Cooperation in Climate Protection with the Ministry of the Environment of the Czech Republic and publicly committed to achieving climate neutrality already by 2040. This is an acceleration of ten years compared to the original ambition.

In the area of social policy, we have set a long-term goal of maintaining our position as an employer of choice and a top employer. We devote great effort to employee satisfaction, treating them with the utmost respect, while at the same time striving to attract new professionals. Our success in the prestigious 2022 TOP Employers study shows that we are succeeding. For the third time in a row, ČEZ has retained its position as the absolute winner of the survey entitled Clear Choice, which is voted on by 12,000 students of Czech universities. In addition to the prestigious main prize, it also dominated two secondary categories as in the previous years.

The year 2023 will not be easy. Nevertheless, I believe that the situation not only on the energy markets will gradually start to calm down and stabilize and we will successfully continue to meet the goals of "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow". Let me assure you that CEZ Group will do its best to build on the successful year 2022 and be a reliable supplier for its customers, an attractive employer, and deliver maximum value for its shareholders.

2) In CEZ Group's terms, these are emissions related to the combustion of fossil fuels in the generation of electricity and heat (CO2, CH4, and N2O emissions) and CO2 emissions from transport. The indicator also includes CH4 and N2O emissions from biomass combustion, CH4 emissions from coal mining, and HFC, PFC, and

SF6 emissions from air conditioning and other equipment. 3) The implementation of new RES in Czechia is significantly influenced by the time required for developing new RES projects. In the context of development, it concerns the time required for approval processes (especially changes to zoning plans) and also the length of the process of approving applications for investment support under the Modernization Fund. Another factor is the actual frequency of calls for RES+ from the Modernization Fund. For the first ČEZ projects, support

was allocated under the Modernization Fund's RES+ program in March 2022. Construction of the first projects with allocated support will be implemented in 2023. 4) Higher water consumption was predominantly due to the increase in condensation of resources to ensure electricity supply in times of shortage caused by the

end of natural gas procurement from Russia. 5) Net Promoter Score, registered trademark.

We have secured gas for Czechia

We have secured gas supplies from non-Russian sources through an LNG terminal in the Netherlands, including transportation routes to Czechia for five years. We have thus ensured capacity equivalent to one third of Czechia's consumption. This was the first LNG terminal to be commissioned in Europe since the invasion of Ukraine, the launch took just six months. In addition, we implemented other necessary inventory measures in time to ensure that we had enough natural gas for CEZ Group customers and remained the most reliable supplier.

Dividend Policy

sníži

From 2019 to 2022, the Company applied a temporary increased payout ratio of 80–100%. In 2022, the dividend policy was updated, the payout ratio was adjusted to the current level of 60–80% of consolidated net income adjusted for extraordinary effects generally unrelated to the current year's operations with effect from January 1, 2023. The average payout ratio of comparable energy companies in Europe is around 60%.

Payment of Dividends to Shareholders

At its meeting on June 28, 2022, the annual shareholders' meeting resolved to pay a dividend of CZK 48 per share before tax to the Company's shareholders, which corresponds to a total amount of funds to be distributed to shareholders of CZK 25.8 billion. The relevant dividend payout ratio was 115.8% in connection with the payment of the extraordinary dividend component following the asset divestment in Bulgaria. The record date for entitlement to the dividend was July 4, 2022. The dividend was payable no earlier than November 1, 2022, and can be claimed until October 31, 2026. Individuals with permanent residence in Czechia or Slovakia were also able to claim the dividend in cash until December 31, 2022. The decision of the annual shareholders' meeting in June 2022 to pay dividends 3 months later than usual contributed significantly to maintaining CEZ Group's financial stability in the context of the extreme increase in electricity market prices in August and the obligation to replenish margin deposits on exchanges and with trading counterparties.

Developments in Energy Markets

Commodity Prices

Electricity prices are determined by the prices of energy commodities, mainly hard coal and gas, and the price of CO2 allowance. In 2022, the consequences of the military conflict in Ukraine were a determining factor affecting the energy sector. Wholesale electricity prices in the Central European region for 2023 were highly volatile. At the beginning of 2022 they were at approximately EUR 130/MWh, but started to increase gradually after the Russian military invasion. The cost of gas-fired generation has increased significantly as a result of the restriction of gas supplies from Russia to Europe. The record increase in electricity market prices was compounded by a risk premium reflecting the uncertainty of gas availability in general. Electricity prices reached an extreme peak on August 26, when they increased to EUR 1,000/MWh. For the rest of the year, electricity prices gradually decreased due to lower consumption and stabilization in the supply of energy commodities, closing 2022 at EUR 240/MWh. The direct consequences of Russian geopolitics are responsible for more than 90% of the increase in electricity prices. For the same reasons, natural gas market prices increased sharply in 2022, surpassing historic highs. Prices for 2023 started at EUR 46/MWh, then increased to EUR 60/MWh before Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Subsequently, the EU adopted the REPowerEU package with measures to replace Russian gas and imposed several sanctions on Russia. At the same time, the certification of Russia's Nord Stream 2 pipeline was halted. Gazprom ceased to meet its long-term commitments and gradually started to cut supplies: first to the spot market and later for long-term contracts with companies and EU countries. In early summer, Russian exports through Nord Stream 1 began to decrease until they stopped altogether at the end of August, with prices increasing to a record high of EUR 314/MWh. After that, prices gradually decreased and there was no major reaction to the September sabotage of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines, which prevented the resumption of direct Russian gas supplies to Germany. During the year, imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) increased substantially and consumption decreased. As a result, natural gas storage was filled to an above-average 95%, surpassing the EU target of 80% by November 1. By the end of the year, prices had decreased to EUR 89/MWh.

Thermal coal prices also reached new highs. The year 2022 started with the price of European hard coal for 2023 at around USD 90/t. In February, the price was still below USD 120/t. Concerns about restrictions on Russian coal supplies to Europe after the start of the conflict in Ukraine drove early March coal prices to over USD 250/t. Prices have remained high since then for several different reasons:

  • Application of the ban on importing Russian coal into the EU from August.
  • Excessive rainfall in Australia has limited mining and caused the export railways and ports to close.
  • In Colombia and South Africa, the impact of above-average rainfall was amplified by disruption of rail services due to accidents and strikes.

Warm weather helped to reduce consumption in the final months of 2022, pushing prices down to USD 185/t at the end of the year.

The EUA price was more stable than energy commodity prices in 2022. For most of the year, it remained at around EUR 80–90/t except for two periods. After the start of the Russian invasion, it decreased to EUR 60/t for about two weeks due to a reduction in the positions of financial investors and fears of market constraints on allowances. In September, October, and partly still in November the price was around EUR 70/t due to the considered possibility to finance the construction of new renewable energy sources with, among others, money from the sale of allowances in the market stabilization mechanism. Another important factor was the desire to find a compromise for intervening in the EU ETS (European Union Emissions Trading Scheme) in the event of a price spike.

Electricity and Emission Allowance Prices (Year-on-Year Comparison)

Unit December 31, 2021 December 31, 2022
Electricity price in Czechia (2023 baseload) EUR/MWh 129.0 242.0
Electricity price in Germany (2023 baseload) EUR/MWh 125.3 239.0

Determinants of the Electricity Sector's Future Development

The energy sector's development will depend mainly on the situation on the natural gas, hard coal, and allowance markets. Their prices will be substantially affected by the consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine as well as by the weaker economic outlook for the upcoming months. In the long term, the biggest impact on energy sector will be the EU's higher decarbonization targets and the growth of renewables. Fundamental assumptions point to a decrease in gas prices to around EUR 30–40/MWh over 2–4 years. Supplies will stabilize due to the growing number of European LNG import terminals and increasing global LNG export capacity, including a growing number of tankers. However, the price decrease may be slowed by higher LNG demand in Asia.

As interest in coal declines, coal prices are likely to decrease gradually. The world market is well supplied and should cope with the redirection of Russian coal exports from Europe to Asia. Neither the extension of the EU ETS to other sectors nor the introduction of CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism which means carbon tariff) will have much impact on the overall balance of the EU ETS. Achieving decarbonization targets will require significant CO2 savings in industry, which is likely to increase the price of emission allowances in the long term.

Renewable energy capacity will increase substantially in the EU by 2030. Photovoltaics will reach almost 600 GW and wind resources 510 GW. The approval process will be accelerated, renewables will be identified as an "overriding public interest" and go-to zones will be established where the approval process can be significantly accelerated. In the German auctions, guaranteed feed-in tariffs for photovoltaics plants have so far been at around EUR 50–55/MWh and around EUR 60/MWh for onshore wind plants. Due to high inflation, they can be expected to increase in the future. The role of green hydrogen in the EU energy mix will start to strengthen. For 2030, the European Commission targets 10 Mt (approx. 330 TWh) of hydrogen from domestic generation and a further 10 Mt of imported hydrogen. By 2030, the share of green hydrogen in total energy and non-energy industry consumption (excluding refineries) is also expected to increase to 50–75% and in the transport sector to 2.6–5%. The specific level is still subject to political negotiation.

One of the EU's main objectives for the short term is to try to replace Russian energy commodity supplies completely. The ambitious targets of Fit for 55 have been further increased with the introduction of REPowerEU and, in addition to decarbonization, they strengthen security of supply. Tightening the original climate and energy targets will bring about a dramatic reduction in natural gas consumption by 2030. Lower consumption and higher gas imports from non-Russian destinations are expected to result in an end to dependence on Russian gas by 2027.

Strategy

Europe's energy sector is undergoing a major transformation towards sustainable solutions. At the same time, the energy market was significantly affected by the military conflict in Ukraine, related to unprecedented developments in commodity markets and regulatory and legislative interventions by European states.

CEZ Group has long been committed to decarbonization and sustainable development principles and intends to play a leading role in the overall transformation of the energy sector in the region. In 2021, CEZ Group decided to make its long-standing strategy of transitioning to climate neutrality even more tangible and to significantly accelerate the overall reduction of emissions. In the accelerated "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow" strategy, CEZ Group commits to fulfilling its goals and public commitments in three ESG sustainability areas by 2025 and 2030: Environmental, Social, and Governance.

In line with this strategy and in light of developments in the energy markets and geopolitical risks, an update of the business concept was approved at the 2022 annual shareholders' meeting. The concept envisages adjusting the internal structure of CEZ Group to enable optimal achievement of strategic objectives in generation and customer areas. Activities and assets will therefore be realigned to match the content of both defined areas.

CEZ Group's Mission and Vision

CEZ Group's mission is to provide safe, reliable, and positive energy to its customers and society at large. CEZ Group's vision is to bring innovation to resolve energy needs and help improve the quality of life.

The accelerated "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow" strategy defines CEZ Group's strategic goals until 2030, taking into account the EU's decarbonization vision, and sets out CEZ Group's specific ambitions in the area of social responsibility and sustainable development in order to maximize shareholder value.

CEZ Group's investment plan is fully in line with the objective to reduce emissions intensity to 0.16 t CO2e/MWh in 2030 and in line with the objective to achieve full climate neutrality in 2040. Therefore, investments in coal-fired power plants and mines are mainly limited to maintenance and decommissioning investments.

Approach to Climate Protection

Reducing the impact of energy on the environment and contributing to the fulfillment of global climate goals is a long-term strategic goal of CEZ Group. CEZ Group has spent tens of billions of CZK on desulfurization, denitrification, reduction of CO2 emissions, and other environmental measures, and constantly takes steps ahead to meet all emission and environmental requirements set by legislation and regulatory bodies. The main environmental priorities include decarbonization, i.e., reducing CO2 emissions and SO2 and NOX emissions in electricity generation.

Decarbonization

CEZ Group has long been committed to the goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and as soon as 2015, it signed up to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 in accordance with the conclusions of the Paris Climate Conference. In 2022, CEZ Group decided to accelerate decarbonization and committed to achieving climate neutrality by the end of 2040. The emission intensity of CEZ Group's greenhouse gases—expressed as CO2 equivalent—decreased from 0.40 to 0.29 t CO2e per MWh of electricity and heat generated between 2018 and 2022 as part of the decarbonization strategy. The CO2e indicator corresponds to emissions as defined in Scope 1 of the GHG Protocol (standard for measuring and reporting carbon footprint). In CEZ Group's terms, these are emissions related not only to the combustion of fossil fuels in electricity and heat generation, but also to CO2 emissions from transport. In addition to direct CO2 emissions, CO2 equivalent is also derived from CH4 and N2O emissions from biomass combustion, CH4 emissions from coal mining, and HFC, PFC, and SF6 emissions from air conditioning and other equipment. In the future, CEZ Group intends to actively continue decarbonizing its portfolio and gradually shut down coal-fired power plants without jeopardizing its obligations to supply stable electricity and heat.

Emission Intensity Reduction Target for 2030 (t CO2e/MWh)

Reducing SO2 and NOX emissions from electricity and heat generation

In order to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions, most facilities use a highly efficient wet limestone scrubbing method to desulfurize the flue gases, while smaller sources use a semi-dry method in which the pollutants in the flue gases are absorbed on lime slurry particles, which are then dried by the heat of the flue gases. Dust particles are captured by high-efficiency electrostatic precipitators or fabric filters.

Sulfur oxides from fluidized bed boilers are captured directly in the combustion chamber by dosing limestone to the furnace. Sulfur dioxide emissions are also reduced by replacing fossil fuels with biomass combustion in some combustion units, especially in fluidized bed boilers.

Nitrogen oxides emissions are reduced either directly by primary measures in the combustion process, or by means of secondary reduction techniques using ammonia water or urea.

Tightening of emission limits, linked to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/2326 determining the conclusions on best Available Techniques (BAT) for large combustion plants, has resulted in the implementation of a number of greening measures to safely achieve the limit concentrations for large coal and biomass combustion sources. The projects were mainly aimed at reducing newly monitored and regulated mercury emissions released into the air, reducing particulate matter emissions, as well as SO2 and NOX emissions.

Following the completion of the extensive greening of the Tušimice power plant and the Trmice heating plant, the Prunéřov, Ledvice, and Mělník power plants are operated under the regime of a proper exemption from BAT limits.

CEZ Group systematically monitors the impact of coal-fired power plant and heating plant operations on the air. Gaseous pollutants (SO2, NOX) and mainly dust particles of various fractions (PM10 a PM2.5) are measured in our own imission stations located near coal-fired power plants. The public is kept informed about the results of pollution monitoring by means of a website. Monitoring stations are located in municipalities affected by mine operations, providing continuous measurement of dust pollution, in particular suspended PM10 particles, with remote data transmission, operated by an independent accredited laboratory. The results of the measurement are provided to the affected municipalities and governmental agencies in the form of data reports at regular monthly intervals.

Coal storage sites are closely monitored to prevent and eliminate spontaneous heating (mixing of coal dust with water vapor can lead to self-combustion).

Pollution measurement data is included in the Air Quality Information Systems database (ISKO) run at national level by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute.

We contribute to ensuring energy security

Ensuring Czechia's energy security is currently an absolute priority for the state. We are transitionally securing maximum availability of coal-fired facilities and adequate mining for medium-term increase in generation and at the same time preparing full decarbonization of the generation portfolio in line with the ambitions of "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow". This means maximum development of nuclear facilities and renewables and all modern technologies to achieve energy self-sufficiency of end-use customers. Providing sufficient, clean, reliable, and affordable energy is a permanent goal.

Such a request must be in writing and must include an urgent reason. A record is made of the course of each Supervisory Board meeting and the resolutions passed.

The participation of members of the Supervisory Board in meetings is usually personal, in justified cases it is possible to use technical means (telephone conference, video conference). In necessary cases that allow no delay, it is possible to take a vote outside a meeting (by letter) in written form or using technical means. The resolution is adopted if at least twothirds of all members took part in the vote and a majority of all members voted in favor of the resolution. The Supervisory Board may invite members of the Company's other bodies, Company employees, and/or other persons to its meetings. Supervisory Board meetings are held usually once a month. In 2022, 14 meetings were held: 10 regular meetings and 4 extraordinary meetings. Twelve meetings were attended by all members, while 1 member was absent from 2 different meetings, each time a different person.

Concern Management

ČEZ, a. s., as the managing entity, leads a concern, which also includes the following managed entities: AirPlus, Areál Třeboradice, AZ KLIMA, ČEZ Distribuce, ČEZ Energetické produkty, ČEZ Energetické služby, ČEZ Energo, ČEZ ENERGOSERVIS, ČEZ ESCO, ČEZ ICT Services, ČEZ Invest Slovensko (formerly ČEZ Bohunice a.s.), ČEZ Obnovitelné zdroje, ČEZ Prodej, ČEZ Teplárenská, Elektrárna Dukovany II, Elektrárna Temelín II, Energetické centrum, Energotrans, ENESA, HA.EM OSTRAVA, in PROJEKT LOUNY ENGINEERING, KART, MARTIA, OSC, PRODECO, Revitrans, Severočeské doly, SD - Kolejová doprava, Telco Infrastructure, Telco Pro Services, TENAUR, and Ústav aplikované mechaniky Brno. OSC, a.s., became a member of the concern as at February 1, 2023.

In the period since the publication of the 2021 Annual Report, Elektrárna Dětmarovice, a.s., ceased to be a member of the concern and ceased to exist as at January 1, 2023, as a result of the merger with ČEZ, a. s.

ČEZ Distribuce and ČEZ Energetické služby (operating local distribution networks) are subjected to concern management in compliance with all requirements of unbundling rules resulting from the Energy Act and Directive 2019/944 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

The common interest of CEZ Concern members is promoting and fulfilling concern targets on a long-term basis through the application of unified concern management. As part of concern management, the managing entity may give binding instructions to managed entities. General and operating concern instruments may be issued to that end. General concern instruments are shared CEZ Group documents and the managing entity's internal documents that are also intended for managed entities. Operating concern instruments are concern instructions given on an ad hoc basis. Fundamental documents having concern-wide application are Concern Management Policies governing primarily areas and activities that should be subjected to concern management and follow concern interests.

Under concern management, binding instructions may be given to managed entities provided that the following conditions are met:

  • The instruction is in line with declared concern interests
  • It is not unlawful to execute the instruction
  • The execution of the instruction will not render the managed entity bankrupt
  • Any detriment to the managed entity resulting from the execution of the instruction will be in the interest of the concern
  • The managed entity was or will be compensated within the concern for any detriment resulting from the execution of the instruction with adequate consideration or other demonstrable benefit derived from membership in the concern

Risk Management

CEZ Group Risk Management

A risk management system and a system of internal controls are developed continually at CEZ Group. The two areas are audited on an ongoing basis by internal audit, which also makes sure all processes are in compliance with best practices and internal and external regulations and standards. The principal risk management functions, objective, and manner of reporting at CEZ Group are illustrated by the following chart:

The aim of the risk management system is to protect the value of CEZ Group while taking on an acceptable level of risk. Centralized risk management is based on the perception of risk as measurable uncertainty (potential deviation between actual and planned developments), expressed in Czech crowns at a chosen uniform confidence level enabling various types of risk to be compared and priorities to be set accordingly. Centralized risk management relies on tools and models for managing and quantifying risks in one-year and medium-term time frames. Together with CEZ Group's budget, the ČEZ Board of Directors approves the Profit at Risk, an overall risk limit expressing CEZ Group's inclination to risk for a given year. The limit is allocated to individual risks on an ongoing basis. Rules, responsibilities, and structure of limits for managing partial risks are discussed by the Risk Committee (an advisory body to the member of the Board of Directors responsible for risk management—Chief of the Finance Division), which monitors the overall impact of risks on CEZ Group, including the utilization of CEZ Group's debt capacity.

Risks having the form of specific threats and/or events are managed in a decentralized manner, with only the most significant of them being reported centrally, in a unified fashion, within the process of updating the CEZ Group business plan. Since 2021, CEZ Group has been using the Unified Group Significant Risk Management scheme, which is a means of covering decentralized managed risk processes by introducing a single, centrally coordinated process for managing risks that are important for the Group across CEZ Group's process areas using an appropriate software tool.

The tools and processes used at CEZ Group allow:

  • Measuring the objective susceptibility of internal resources to changes in market and credit risks, applying selected principles used in the banking sector
  • Managing the degree of fixation of future cash flows, thereby minimizing market risks
  • Making decisions on acquisitions and investments in the context of real debt capacity
  • Monitoring compliance with requirements stipulated by creditors and credit rating agencies for debt indicators in the medium term, thereby minimizing the risk of downgrading
  • Updating the strategy in accordance with the anticipated financial capacity of CEZ Group

CEZ Group uses a unified system for categorizing risks according to their primary causes:

1. Market Risks

  • Commodity risks to generation margin associated with the operation of power plants (managed through running sales of nuclear and hydroelectric electricity or by fixing the gross margin of coal-fired power plants for the next 3–6 years in long-term electricity sales contracts and through operative management of the overall CO2 position)
  • Commodity risks resulting from trading in electricity, emission allowances, natural gas, hard coal, crude oil, and oil products (managed by setting financial position limits, and rules)
  • Currency and interest rate risks hedged by maintaining well-balanced operating, investing, and financing cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and utilizing standard financial instruments in accordance with risk limits and rules for fixing generation revenues on a running basis within a five-year time frame
  • Volume risks to generation at renewable sources abroad

2. Credit Risks

  • Credit risks of trading and financial partners (managed by individual limits and conservative trading rules applied)
  • Credit risks of end-use customers for electricity and gas managed through payment terms based on customer credibility

3. Operational Risks

  • The risk of deviations from the plan in the output of nuclear and Czech coal-fired power plants (quantified and reported on a monthly basis and the long-term results are utilized for optimizing the scope of maintenance)
  • Other operational risks, in particular operational and process risks (recorded, monitored, and managed within the framework of the Unified Group Significant Risk Management scheme)

4. Business Risks

  • Strategic, regulatory, and legislative business risks (assessed on an ongoing basis and taken into account when updating acquisition and investment strategies in order to reflect changes in CEZ Group's debt and financial capacities)
  • Risks of new taxes and/or decisions by EU competition and regulatory bodies as well as political risks
  • Significant business and strategic risks (recorded, monitored, and managed under the Unified Group Significant Risk Management scheme)

Approach to Risks in Relation to Financial Reporting

Pursuant to the Accounting Act, ČEZ keeps its books in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. Other CEZ Group companies, regardless of the accounting standard, use to prepare their individual financial statements, also report all data for CEZ Group's consolidation purposes according to IFRS. Unified accounting policies followed at ČEZ and selected subsidiaries are defined in full compliance with generally applicable accounting standards. The accounting standards of CEZ Group are further supplemented with a set of auxiliary guidelines detailing specific areas of the accounting process. Consolidation rules and other general principles applicable to the preparation of CEZ Group consolidated financial statements are specified in the Rules of Consolidation.

As a rule, any accounting document in CEZ Group may only be entered into the books on the basis of approved supporting documents. Approval takes place primarily online, through the approval process in the enterprise information system. The scope of each approver's signatory authority is set forth in the relevant company's internal regulations.

In terms of organization, the accounting function is separated from the process of managing business partners, including the administration of bank accounts and payment of posted liabilities. This rules out any possibility of a single employee entering a business partner in the database, posting an amount payable to that partner, and issuing a payment order. Liabilities are paid only when approved by an employee authorized to carry out the business transaction and an employee authorized to confirm actual performance in accordance with the signature rules. Only users with appropriate privileges have access to the accounting system. Access privileges for the system are granted by means of a software application and are subject to approval by a superior and a system administrator. Access privileges are granted according to each employee's position. Only employees of the relevant accounting department have privileges for active operations in the accounting system. All logins to the accounting system are logged in a database and can be searched retroactively. The accounting system allows identifying the user, who created, changed, or reversed any accounting record. Taking an inventory of assets and liabilities is an integral part of the system of accounting controls. The inventory-taking process verifies whether all predictable risks and potential losses associated with the assets have been reflected in the accounts, whether the assets are properly protected and maintained, and whether records of assets and liabilities are true.

The accuracy of the accounts and financial statements is checked by the accounting unit on an ongoing basis. In addition, it is checked by an independent auditor, who audits individual and consolidated financial statements prepared on the reporting date, that is, December 31 of a given year. Selected accounting areas are also subjected to internal audits to verify whether the procedures used are in compliance with applicable law and the Company's internal regulations. Where discrepancies are found, corrective action is proposed immediately and taken as soon as possible.

The effectiveness of ČEZ's system of internal controls, the process of compiling ČEZ's individual financial statements and CEZ Group's consolidated financial statements, and the process of auditing financial statements are also reviewed by the Audit Committee, which conducts these activities as a Company governance body without prejudice to the responsibilities of members of the Board of Directors and the Supervisory Board.

Insurance

Numerous risks in CEZ Group companies are limited by insurance.

ČEZ's most important kinds of insurance taken out in Czechia under the insurance program include:

  • Nuclear plant third-party liability insurance pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act; there are separate insurance policies for the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant; each policy is for the statutory limit of CZK 2 billion; the insurers are Generali Česká pojišťovna, representing the Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool, and European Liability Insurance for the Nuclear Industry
  • Liability insurance for nuclear material transports pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act; the insurance covers transports of nuclear fuel for both nuclear power plants to the statutory limit of CZK 300 million; the insurers are Generali Česká pojišťovna, representing the Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool, and European Liability Insurance for the Nuclear Industry
  • Property insurance for the nuclear power plants, covering damage arising from natural hazards and mechanical risks, including damage arising from a nuclear accident; the insurers are Generali Česká pojišťovna, representing the Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool, and the European Mutual Association for Nuclear Insurance
  • Property insurance for thermal and hydroelectric power plants providing coverage against natural hazards and mechanical risks
  • General liability insurance that covers CEZ Group companies against financial losses that may result from damage inflicted on a third party due to a company's operations and defective product

Following on from CEZ Group's insurance program and applicable legislation, CEZ Group companies in Czechia and abroad have taken out insurance usual for their business segments, such as insurance against property and mechanical risks, insurance against interruption of operation, accounts receivable insurance, warranty insurance, or erection all-risk insurance for major capital projects. Mandatory contractual insurance and insurance required by an issued license for the performance of an activity are maintained at all times.

Internal Audit and Compliance

Internal Audit

ČEZ's internal audit provides the Company's management and governance bodies with assurance that the internal management and control system is functional and all significant risks are managed adequately. As such, it helps achieve CEZ Group's goals and initiates improvement of activities and mitigation of business risk. The internal audit activity at ČEZ is performed by the audit and compliance department. The unit reports directly to the Company's Board of Directors.

The unit's independence and efficiency are overseen by the ČEZ Audit Committee. All key processes and segments of CEZ Group, including abroad, are subject to internal audit supervision. The head of ČEZ's Audit and Compliance has direct access to and attends meetings of the Board of Directors and participates as a guest in meetings of the ČEZ Plant Safety Committee, Risk Management Committee, and CEZ Group Security Committee. The unit's independence and the compliance of its activities with the Standards of Professional Internal Audit Practice were verified by an external quality assessment in late 2021 according to the requirements of these standards. Internal audit plans are prepared on the basis of an assessment of the level of risk involved in individual processes, making use of suggestions made by CEZ Group managers, and on the basis of assessments of specific risks made by the Company's specialized functions (for example, cybersecurity, nuclear safety, compliance, and corruption risks).

A total of 34 audits were conducted in 2022: 12 at ČEZ and 22 at subsidiaries and affiliates (including 4 audits at foreign shareholdings) where audits are conducted by ČEZ's internal audit function under a contract.

Audit outputs are reports documenting all objective findings and formulating corrective action where shortcomings are identified. The outputs are discussed with the managements of the audited entities, which subsequently take corrective action. The Audit and Compliance department regularly reviews the corrective action taken, using follow-up audits where appropriate.

The results of auditing and corrective action taken are reported continuously to the ČEZ Board of Directors and Audit Committee. In the event of serious findings or shortcomings the correction of which is beyond the audited entity's purview, resolutions on correction are adopted by the Board of Directors of ČEZ.

Ethics and Compliance

The area of ethics and compliance forms an integral part of the management of CEZ Group companies. CEZ Group has implemented the Compliance Management System (CMS), which is an effective tool for managing the risks of breaching legal obligations, ethical principles, and the internal code of conduct. The CEZ Group's CMS is designed in accordance with international compliance standards, in particular ISO 37001:2016—Anti-Corruption Management System and ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management Systems. Since 2021, ČEZ has been certified for its anti-corruption management system according to ISO 37001:2016—the first energy company in Central Europe to receive this certification. The certificate was awarded to ČEZ by the consulting company KPMG. In the autumn of 2022, ČEZ successfully passed the first supervisory audit under this certification. It was thus repeatedly confirmed that ČEZ has set up and maintains a comprehensive and effective anti-corruption system in accordance with the requirements of ISO 37001:2016, including an anti-bribery policy, the basic principle of which is zero tolerance for any form of corrupt behavior, whether direct or through third parties.

The Board of Directors of ČEZ has clearly declared its commitment to building and developing CEZ Group's CMS based on transparent ethical principles. In order to enforce this commitment, it established the Corporate Compliance Committee as its advisory body, to which it has delegated operational management in the area of corporate compliance. The Committee evaluates current and potential compliance risks, assesses their impact, evaluates the level of their management, and regularly informs the Board of Directors of ČEZ about the results of its activities and about the main events, performance, and results of CEZ Group's CMS. The focus of compliance activities is regularly revised on the basis of a compliance risk analyses.

The commitment of the Company's management to promoting ethical principles in business activities and in the conduct of its employees and business partners is enshrined in two major CEZ Group documents. These are the Code of Ethics (Ethical Conduct Policy), which sets out the ethical rules of conduct for employees and members of CEZ Group's statutory bodies, and the Compliance Management System Policy, which sets out the responsibilities, conditions, and tools in the field of CEZ Group's compliance. The Code of Ethics is binding for all employees. Familiarity with the Code is verified by regular mandatory online training. All employees undergoing training must also actively declare their compliance with CEZ Group's ethical principles. Follow-up management documents specify procedures in individual areas, such as training, preventing conflicts of interest, verifying employees and business partners, giving and accepting gifts, ethics, and follow-up compliance investigations. Ethical rules are also defined for all CEZ Group suppliers in the Commitment to Ethical Conduct, which is part of the agreements concluded with suppliers and which is published on the CEZ Group website. Compliance with these rules is regularly verified through internal audits and compliance checks, while compliance checks are also carried out on CEZ Group suppliers. Fields of conflict of interest, gifts, corruption prevention, etc. are regularly inspected in this manner.

Strong emphasis is placed on education in the areas of ethics and compliance. All CEZ Group employees undergo regular annual Code of Ethics training. Specialized training is also organized focused on specific topics (e.g., in the area of corruption prevention, all employees of the ČEZ Procurement Department are trained on an annual basis). During 2022, more than 13,000 employees attended the code of conduct training, and more than 500 employees attended procurement training focused on preventing corruption and complying with the third-party verification process. CEZ Group's Ethics Hotline, available on the CEZ Group website, is an effective CMS tool not only for employees but also for business partners and the general public. It is designed to ensure the whistleblower anonymity, and their protection against sanctions or discrimination. Any information reported by its means is subsequently investigated internally and corrective action is taken based on the findings. Dozens of notifications are reviewed annually. The CMS undergoes regular independent external assessment. In its most recent evaluation, Deloitte concluded that the compliance function at CEZ Group meets the requirements defined in the ISO 37301:2021 Compliance Management Systems—Requirements with Guidance for Use and the methodology of the Supreme State Prosecutor's Office on the application of Section 8(5) of the Act on Criminal Liability of Legal Entities and Proceedings Against Them. It was also confirmed that compliance at CEZ Group includes appropriate elements of prevention, detection, and response.

Corporate Governance Compliance

The Company's corporate governance is based on rules stipulated by applicable law, in particular the Business Corporations Act, Civil Code, Capital Market Undertakings Act, and Corporate Criminal Liability Act. As an issuer of securities admitted to trading on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (Giełda Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie S.A., GPW), ČEZ is required to comply with the code of corporate governance published for issuers by the exchange in the form of the Best Practice for GPW Listed Companies 2021 (the GPW Code). The current text of the GPW Code in Polish and English can be found on the Warsaw Stock Exchange's website: https://www.gpw.pl/dobre-praktyki2021 and https://www.gpw.pl/best-practice2021.

ČEZ takes into account material rules of the GPW Code in its activities, considering the individual areas and topics governed by the Code to be important also to its shareholders. ČEZ's practices departed from the GPW Code in the following cases in 2022 (an explanation or reasoning for each departure or deviation is given):

Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the GPW Code require companies to have a diversity policy in place, which is also applicable to the Board of Directors and the Supervisory Board, stating, in relation to the gender diversity requirement, that the participation of a gender-underrepresented group in each corporate body should be at least 30%. In May 2021, the Board of Directors approved CEZ Group's accelerated strategy "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow". In the area of diversity, the Company has set a long-term goal of achieving a 30% representation of women in management. Subsequently, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the Diversity and Inclusion Policy, which is binding for all CEZ Concern companies, but its gender diversity targets are not formally declared for the Company's elected bodies. Decisions on the staffing of the Board of Directors are within the purview of the Supervisory Board and decisions on the staffing of the Audit Committee are within the purview of the shareholders' meeting, which exercise their will in these matters independently of the Company's internal documents and/or declarations. Likewise, decisions on the

composition of two-thirds of the Supervisory Board are within the purview of the shareholders' meeting. In relation to the remaining one-third of Supervisory Board members that are elected by Company employees, the Election Rules applicable to the election of these Supervisory Board members place emphasis on providing equal opportunities and promoting diversity in respect to differences between people. In this context, the Election Rules emphasize that equal opportunity and diversity are the concern of the entire management, labor unions, and every individual at CEZ Group and the approach is also fully respected in relation to the elections of Supervisory Board members.

  • Section 2.3 of the GPW Code states that at least two members of the Supervisory Board should be independent and have no significant relationships with shareholders holding at least 5% of the total votes. The Company has no means to ensure compliance with the Code requirement as two-thirds of the Supervisory Board members are elected by the shareholders' meeting (from candidates proposed by shareholders) and one-third of Supervisory Board members are elected by Company employees from among Company's employees in compliance with applicable law. However, notwithstanding the absence of such instruments on the part of the Company, this requirement of the Code is currently being met.
  • Section 2.7 of the GPW Code requires that participation of the Board of Directors members in the bodies of another company (other than companies that are members of the same group—in our case CEZ Group) is subject to the approval of the Supervisory Board. Neither the bylaws nor the Company's internal regulations provide for such a condition; however, members of the Company's Board of Directors may not, in accordance with the relevant legislation, be members of the statutory body of a company with the same or similar scope of activity (unless it is a company that is a member of CEZ Group or a controlled company); moreover, members of the Company's Board of Directors have a reporting obligation to the other Board of Directors members and to the Supervisory Board in the event of a potential conflict of interests with the Company's interests.

  • Section 2.11 of the GPW Code sets out the requirements for the content of the Supervisory Board's report to be submitted to the Company's shareholders' meeting. The Supervisory Board Report meets the content requirements of the GPW Code, with the exception of:

  • − The assessment of the internal control system, risk management systems, and the internal audit function, however, in accordance with the applicable legislation and the Company's bylaws, this assessment is carried out by the Audit Committee, which informs the Supervisory Board and the Company's shareholders' meeting (see comments on Section 3.8 of the Code)
  • − Information on the extent to which the diversity policy has been implemented, although this information is included in this chapter of the Annual Report (see comments on Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of the Code).
  • Section 3.8 of the GPW Code states that the person in charge of internal audit at the Company is to report to the Supervisory Board at least once a year on the effectiveness of the internal control system, risk management, and internal audit functions appropriate to the size of the Company; Section 3.9 of the Code includes a requirement that the Supervisory Board assess the effectiveness of these systems and functions at least once a year. ČEZ has the Audit Committee as an independent body of the Company that monitors, inter alia, the effectiveness of internal control, risk management systems, and the effectiveness of internal audit (Section 22.1(b) and (c) of the Company's bylaws). For this reason and in accordance with Czech law, the relevant reports are submitted directly to the Audit Committee, which independently evaluates the effectiveness of these systems and functions.
  • According to Section 3.10 of the GPW Code, the internal audit function is to be assessed at least once every five years by an independent auditor appointed with the participation of the Audit Committee. In the Company, this independent assessment is carried out in accordance with the above requirement of the Code, however, the independent auditor is selected in accordance with the relevant legislation through a selection process in which the Audit Committee does not intervene.
  • Section 4.1 of the GPW Code states that issuers should allow shareholders to participate in shareholders' meetings through the use of electronic means (electronic general meetings) where this is supported by shareholder expectations that have been communicated to the Company and provided that the Company can provide the technical security and infrastructure necessary to hold such meetings securely. The Company continuously evaluates the possibility and appropriateness of holding a shareholders' meeting using electronic means instead of a meeting in person. The Company does not consider such an option, taking into account the large number of shareholders of the Company, to be sufficiently safe in view of the need to avoid any technical difficulties that could jeopardize the smooth conduct of the shareholders' meeting. Nor has the Company been presented with a clear and (in terms of the number of shareholders) material demand in this regard by the shareholders. The amendment to the bylaws effective since 2021 has enabled the Company to hold the shareholders' meeting in the form of voting by letter, i.e., by means of decision-making outside the meeting, in which technical means can already play an essential role. The possibility of holding the shareholders' meeting voting by letter is limited to cases where the holding of the shareholders' meeting by attendance is prevented or substantially impeded due to external circumstances. Management continues to see the option of meeting with shareholders by attendance, which facilitates direct interaction between management and shareholders, as beneficial.
  • Pursuant to Section 4.3 of the GPW Code, issuers are required to ensure that the proceedings of the AGM are broadcast to the public. The Company does not provide a public broadcast of its shareholders' meeting, because the Company's policy, which is in compliance with applicable law, is based on permitting its shareholders' meetings to be attended only by its shareholders (either in person or by proxy), individuals that can reasonably give their opinion on items on the shareholders' meeting agenda, such as the Company's auditors or advisers, and individuals that make arrangements for the shareholders' meeting. In order to be able to participate in the Company's shareholders' meeting, the ownership of one share of the Company (as of the record date for participation) is sufficient, and the Company does not consider this condition to be restrictive or discriminatory in any way.
  • Section 4.4 of the GPW Code states that media representatives should be allowed to attend the shareholders' meeting. Representatives of the media may attend the shareholders' meeting, but their attendance is conditional on them being shareholders of the Company (see commentary on Section 4.3 of the Code).
  • Section 4.9 of the GPW Code contains a requirement that the candidates for new members of the Supervisory Board to be decided by the shareholders' meeting should be proposed to the shareholders' meeting at least three days before the meeting, including the publication of all related documents (relating to the presentation of the candidates) on the Company's website and, where applicable, should make a statement declaring their material relationship with the shareholder(s) holding at least 5% of the total votes in the Company. The Company's bylaws do not set a deadline for the submission of proposals for the election or removal of members of the Company's bodies elected by the shareholders' meeting (the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee), which means that candidates for the election of members of these bodies may be submitted only at the shareholders' meeting itself. These candidates are then duly presented to the shareholders attending the shareholders' meeting.
  • Sections 5.5 to 5.7 of the GPW Code contain certain requirements relating to potential related party transactions. The requirement that the Supervisory Board grant its approval to making a significant contract between the Company, of the one part, and a shareholder having a share in voting rights of 5% or more or a related party, of the other part, is not regulated by the bylaws, but the Supervisory Board reviews the related parties report, which includes a list of the Company's contracts with related parties, including the majority shareholder. In addition, the relevant legal regulation (Section 121s et seq. of the CMUA) requires that a company may enter into any significant transaction with a so-called related party only with the approval of the shareholders' meeting. The Company's bylaws then imply the principle that the Board of Directors is obliged to submit for discussion and request the previous opinion of the Supervisory Board, inter alia, for all proposals submitted by the Board of Directors to the shareholders' meeting for decision or information. In this way, both the approval of significant transactions with related parties by

the Company's shareholders' meeting and their discussion by the Supervisory Board are ensured. The definition of a related party is regulated by the provision of Section 2(2)(d) of CMUA, which refers to Section 9 of International Accounting Standard IAS 24—Related Party Disclosures, annexed to Commission Regulation (EC) No. 1126/2008 of November 3, 2008. A significant transaction is a contract or agreement under which (a) the assets or acquisitions of the Company are disposed of, or (b) to increase the Company's debts, both in excess of 10% of the assets arising from the financial statements for the accounting period immediately preceding the accounting period in which the transaction is concluded. Transactions with the same related party concluded in the same accounting period are added together for these purposes.

Description of the Diversity Policy Applied to Company Governance Bodies (Section 118(4)(l) of the Capital Market Undertakings Act)

In May 2021, the Board of Directors of ČEZ approved CEZ Group's accelerated strategy "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow". In the area of diversity, the Company has set a long-term goal of achieving a 30% representation of women in management. The Board of Directors adopted a Diversity and Inclusion Policy (Diversity Policy) in December 2021, which is binding for all CEZ Group companies, but its gender diversity goals are not formally declared for the Company's elected bodies. Decisions on the staffing of the Board of Directors are within the purview of the Supervisory Board and decisions on the staffing of the Audit Committee are within the purview of the shareholders' meeting, which exercise their will in these matters independently of the Company's internal documents and/or declarations. Likewise, decisions on the composition of two-thirds of the Supervisory Board are within the purview of the shareholders' meeting. In relation to the remaining one-third of Supervisory Board members that are elected by Company employees, the Election Rules applicable to the election of these Supervisory Board members place emphasis on providing equal opportunities and promoting diversity in respect to differences between people. In this context, the Election Rules emphasize that equal opportunity and diversity are the concern of the entire management, labor unions, and every individual at CEZ Group, and the approach is also fully respected in relation to the elections of Supervisory Board members.

i) Information on Significant Contracts Relating to Change in Control over the Company as a Result of a Takeover Bid

ČEZ, a. s., has entered into significant contracts that will become effective, change, or expire if control over ČEZ changes as a result of a takeover bid. These are the 3rd, 8th, 15th, 17th, 26th, 30th, and 31st Eurobond issues; the 1st, 2nd and 4th Namensschuldverschreibung issues; the 2nd US bond issues; the ČEZ, a. s., Promissory Note Issue Program and bilateral committed and uncommitted credit lines; loan agreements with the European Investment Bank for EUR 200 million made in 2014, EUR 330 million made in 2019, EUR 300 million and EUR 100 million made in 2021, and EUR 790 million made in 2022. In these contracts, the counterparty would be entitled, but not required, to demand early repayment should there be a change in the controlling entity of ČEZ. However, the right to early repayment may be exercised only if either Standard & Poor's or Moody's publicly declares or notifies ČEZ in writing that it has downgraded ČEZ's existing credit rating due to, in full or in part, the change in controlling entity. Downgrading an existing credit rating is defined as any change from investment grade to noninvestment grade, any downgrade of original noninvestment grade, or nondetermination of investment grade if no rating is given at all. The above downgrading would have to take place in the period from the public disclosure of the step that could result in the change in controlling entity to 180 days after the announcement of the change in controlling entity.

The counterparty would not be allowed to exercise its right to early repayment if, following the actual change in the controlling entity, the credit rating agency reevaluated its position and restored ČEZ's investment grade or original noninvestment grade rating within the period defined above. The contractual provisions concerning a change in control over ČEZ should be seen in the context of ČEZ's credit ratings, which in 2022 were A– (with a stable outlook) by Standard & Poor's and Baa1 (with a stable outlook) by Moody's, that is, 4 and 3 grades, respectively, above the credit rating agencies' noninvestment-grade ratings. Said change-of-rating condition does not apply to the loan agreements with the European Investment Bank, worth EUR 1,720 million in total, under which the counterparty's right becomes effective as soon as control over ČEZ changes.

j) Information on Contracts Binding the Company in Relation to a Takeover Bid

sníži

ČEZ has not entered into any contracts with members of its Board of Directors or its employees in which the Company would undertake to provide performance in case their service or employment is terminated in relation to a takeover bid.

k) Information on the Program Control System That Allows Acquiring the Company's Corporate Securities

ČEZ top managers' compensation included an incentive program that allowed them to acquire Company shares (a "stock option plan") until the end of 2019. Under the stock option plan applicable until December 31, 2019, members of the Board of Directors and selected managers were entitled to options on the Company's common stock under the terms and conditions set forth in their service contracts (for Board of Directors members) and stock option agreements (for selected managers). Under the stock option rules, members of the Board of Directors and selected managers received options on a certain number of Company shares every year as long as they remained in office. According to the rules of the stock option plan, the exercise price per share was determined as the weighted average of prices at which Company shares were traded on the regulated market in Czechia during one month before the annual grant date, and stock option beneficiaries may call on the Company to transfer shares up to the number corresponding to a given option grant, no earlier than two years and no later than by the middle of the fourth year after every option grant. The exercise of the stock option (in relation to allocating stock options to which the right arose until the termination of the stock option plan) is limited so that the appreciation of the Company's shares may not exceed 100% of the purchase price. On an ongoing basis, the stock option plan was monitored internally at the level of the relevant Company's departments in accordance with these rules.

In 2022, there were 17 individuals among employees and members of the Board of Directors who owned shares of stock obtained through the stock option plan. None of the individuals exercised their right to attend the shareholders' meeting of ČEZ as a Company shareholder. Dividend rights were exercised by 14 people. None of the above-mentioned 17 individuals exercised any other rights associated with their ownership of Company shares. According to information submitted to the Company for the purposes of preparing this report, no beneficiary of the stock option plan transferred any separately transferable right attached to their shares to any third party.

The stock option plan was terminated on December 31, 2019, based on the Supervisory Board's decision approving amendments to service contracts (in relation to members of the Board of Directors) and the Board of Directors' and Supervisory Board's decision to terminate the stock option plan in relation to the selected managers. The right to exercise the call for options granted until the end of 2019 has been maintained, with the following exception: All option grants provided to members of the Board of Directors and/or selected managers in 2019 were reduced proportionately so as to correspond to the number of shares determined according to the number of days remaining between the grant date and the end date of the stock option plan (that is, December 31, 2019). During 2022, all remaining options were exercised by the beneficiaries of the plan, effectively terminating and settling all remaining options of the participants in the stock option plan. Starting from January 1, 2020, the stock option plan was replaced with a new long-term performance-based bonus system for members of the Board of Directors and a new system of long-term performance-based bonus agreements/ multiannual bonus agreements for selected managers. The new system of long-term performance-based bonus is not linked to the right to acquire Company's shares. The long-term performance-based bonus program reinforces alignment of beneficiaries' and shareholders' interests by taking into account of the payment of dividends and fulfillment of defined performance indicators besides being linked to the long-term trend in the market price of shares. The performance indicator is determined on the basis of Total Shareholder Return (TSR) and its performance is assessed relative to the TSR percentile achieved by the Company in relation to all the companies included in the STOXX Europe 600 Utilities stock index compiled by Deutsche Börse AG.

Business Environment

The development of not only the energy sector has been fundamentally affected by Russia's military invasion of Ukraine. The war and the confluence of a number of other factors have resulted in energy market prices rising to historic highs. This was mainly due to the restriction of gas supplies from Russia and the resulting surge in the cost of generating electricity from emission generating sources, as well as the general uncertainty in Europe. The sanctions adopted by the European Union against Russia and Russia's reaction have subsequently led to a major reduction in Europe's trade and payment relations with Russia. The panic on the markets culminated in August when the price of natural gas on the main European commodity exchanges broke the EUR 300/MWh mark. During 2022, the price of electricity on the wholesale markets followed the trend of natural gas prices, reaching an extreme level of almost EUR 1,000/MWh in August.

European Measures to Minimize the Impact of the Energy Crisis on Consumers

During 2022, several measures have been adopted in the EU: gas storage filling obligations, voluntary joint gas purchases, simplification of permitting procedures for RES construction, and last but not least measures addressing energy prices, i.e., limiting the revenues of inframarginal electricity generators and capping the price of natural gas traded on European exchanges, as well as measures for mandatory reductions in gas and electricity consumption. In line with the European Commission's framework recommendation, the vast majority of EU member states have moved to tax profits (windfall tax or solidarity tax) or the obligation to pay revenues from electricity generation (above the price caps). The resources raised from the energy companies will be used to finance support for end-use consumers in 2023. For end-use customers, maximum prices (price caps) were set by the regulatory measure, and other forms of financial support have been provided to selected customer groups, such as special price tariffs, VAT reductions, and social support for low-income customers.

Czechia

In 2022, the Czech economy recorded an increase in gross domestic product. The main drivers of the annual increase were expenditure on investment and foreign demand. Consumer spending had a negative impact. The external balance turned negative.

The business environment in Czechia was fundamentally affected by the energy crisis in 2022, which was reflected in the increase in energy commodity prices to record levels following the Russian military invasion of Ukraine. In 2022, the Czech economy was exposed to significant inflationary pressures. The price increases were in the areas of energy related to housing, which showed markedly high prices on energy exchanges, and food. Czech companies faced an unparalleled increase in overall costs, which was mitigated in H2 by the receding difficulties in global production and supply chains. The increasing global electricity and gas prices impacted companies gradually and will only become fully apparent in subsequent years due to price fixing in contracts with electricity suppliers. There was also a gradual cooling of demand, driven by a significant decrease in real wages. As part of its recommendations on how to tackle the energy crisis, the European Commission also approved rules on state aid to cover increased energy prices (the Temporary Crisis Framework, TCF). Following the TCF, the Czech government approved a subsidy plan to support natural persons and legal entities carrying out business activities. This program was initially targeted only at certain sectors of the Czech economy and only for increased costs incurred for part of 2022. During the year, the plan was extended to all sectors of the economy and its validity was prolonged until the end of 2023.

In view of the persistently high energy prices, the Czech government approved a capping of electricity and gas prices in autumn 2022, following measures taken at EU level. Initially for residential customers, small and medium-sized enterprises, and public sector entities (Government Decree No. 298/2022 Coll.), subsequently extended to large enterprises in accordance with the TCF. The price cap was set at CZK 5,000 per MWh for electricity and CZK 2,500 per MWh for gas (excl. VAT and distribution charges). For defined groups, entrepreneurs, in particular, the price cap is applied at 80% of the highest monthly consumption of the previous five years; for large entrepreneurs, this measure is also limited by competition requirements (capped at the maximum amount of the property benefit). Furthermore, following the EU Council regulation on emergency intervention to address high energy prices, the Czech government adopted amendments to the Energy Act and the Income Tax Act which introduced: a levy on excess revenues from the sale of electricity generated in Czechia and delivered to the electricity grid, excluding balancing energy, a windfall tax of 60% (applied to the portion of profits earned in excess of the 2018–2021 average profit plus 20%); in the energy sector, this tax applies to generators and operators of electricity and gas systems who have a decisive income of at least CZK 50 million.

The occured situation on the energy market has been the stimulus for a significant acceleration of the development of renewable energy sources and adjustments to the related legislation. At European level, further RES targets have been decided and the framework for simplifying permitting procedures has been strengthened. In response to this, the Czech legislation was amended by increasing the limit for renewables operated without a license. A government decree was also issued setting the scope and conditions for the development of supported sources in 2022–2024, whereby it was decided to support RES through auctioned operating support for the first time in 10 years.

Germany

As a result of the energy crisis affecting the whole year 2022, renewable generation has become an option to reduce dependence on fossil fuel imports. As a primary pillar of a sustainable energy policy, renewable energy generation plays an important role in the Energiewende, the transformation of the German energy sector. Due to the looming shortage of generation capacity, a short-term measure was also taken to postpone the shutdown dates of the coal-fired reserve power plants from the end of 2022 to spring 2024, and a similar date for the shutdown of the last three nuclear power plants was postponed to April 15, 2023.

The German government's new target for the expansion of RES by 2030 means a near doubling of the share of RES capacity in less than ten years. In 2030, their generation is expected to amount to up to 600 TWh of electricity per year, mainly from wind and solar power.

Wind energy is currently playing a key role in the expansion of renewable energy in Germany. In the case of wind power, 2022 was an above-average year. Onshore and offshore wind power plants generated a total of approx. 125 TWh in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 12 TWh. Overall, renewables in Germany generated 234 TWh in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 18 TWh, and their share of net electricity generation increased from 42.7% in 2021 to 48.3% in 2022. In 2022, 4 auctions were held to determine support for electricity generation from onshore wind power plants. The Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur – BNetzA) offered 4,572 MW of capacity for auctions. Support was granted to 356 projects with a total capacity of 3,225 MW. The average value of the support granted was 5.8 ct/kWh. In 2022, 3 auctions were held for the construction of solar power plants. BNetzA offered 3,124 MW of capacity to compete, a year-on-year increase of 1,487 MW. Support was granted to 414 projects with a total capacity of 2,389 MW. The average value of the support granted was 5.5 ct/kWh.

Poland

The Polish energy market is almost fully liberalized. Wholesale market pricing is based on market factors. Electricity prices for residential customers and distribution charges are regulated. In the heat market, prices are based on a tariff system. CEZ Skawina and CEZ Chorzów underwent mandatory certification for joining the capacity market system in early 2020. At the moment, CEZ Skawina has supply contracts for 2021–2026 and CEZ Chorzów has a one-year contract for 2024. The military conflict in Ukraine has had a significant negative impact on coal prices. Both power plants were therefore forced to start price negotiations with their suppliers in H1 2022, despite existing long-term coal supply contracts. Negotiations on the coal price for 2023 started at the end of the year. The increase in the cost of generation prompted the ministry of climate and environment to issue a new tariff regulation in December 2022, which allows heat generators from cogeneration units to apply the maximum tariff increase to the reference level and additionally charge PLN 22/GJ until the end of April 2023.

An important issue is the introduction of the government's cap on electricity prices for generators, which applies from December 1, 2022, until the end of 2023. The legislation stipulates that if the sales price of energy exceeds the price cap set by law, a levy must be paid into the so-called solidarity fund. In addition, an amendment to the Energy Act came into force on December 6, abolishing the so-called exchange obligation in its entirety, so that energy generators may sell energy not only on the stock exchange but also bilaterally (OTC). The abolition of the 100% obligation to sell on the stock exchange may have a significant impact on the stock exchange indices (TGE) in 2023.

France

Energy policy in France is based on a concept consisting of multiannual energy programmes setting short- and medium-term energy and climate targets until 2028. The National Low-Carbon Strategy, with the aim of achieving climate neutrality by 2050, also plays an important role. The Multiyear Energy Program, covering the five-year periods of 2019−2023 and 2024−2028, emphasizes the diversification of the energy mix through the promotion of RES with the ambition to double their installed capacity by 2028 compared to 2017, while achieving a 36% share of RES in electricity generation. With a view to targets set for RES, the installed capacity of photovoltaic power plants should increase to 35.1–44.0 GW by the end of 2028 and the capacity of onshore wind farms should increase to 33.2–34.7 GW. In 2028, the installed capacity of offshore wind power plants is expected to reach 5.2–6.2 GW.

France is aiming for a much faster expansion of renewable energy sources. As part of this effort, it has been announced that approval deadlines for renewable energy will be halved. In France, it currently takes approx. 10 years before an offshore wind power plant gets connected to the grid, which is twice as long as in Germany (7 years for onshore wind power plants, which is also twice as long as in Germany).

France scored a major success in November 2022, when the first offshore wind power plant on French territory was put into full operation in the canton of Guérande. It has an installed capacity of 480 MW.

Turkey

In 2022, Turkey was increasingly constrained by high inflation (the consumer price index reached 64% in December 2022, the highest level since 1998). The Turkish lira held at TRY 13.5/USD until the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, weakened further from March onwards as inflation rates increased, depreciating to TRY 18.7/USD by the end of the year. In total for 2022, the Turkish lira has weakened by 40% against the dollar, which has had a highly negative impact on companies that are financed by US dollar-denominated loans. Turkey's economic policy prioritizes GDP growth over price stability. The Bank of Turkey's benchmark interest rate was cut repeatedly to 9% in H2 2022. Annual GDP growth was 5.6% in 2022. Household final consumption increased, the tourism sector expanded, and exporters were able to benefit from the challenges of global supply chains in Asia. On the other hand, there was a slowdown in investment and pressure on the current account of the payment balance due to a surge in energy imports. The rating agencies unanimously place Turkey's creditworthiness in the speculative area. In August, Moody's downgraded the country's rating to B3 with a stable outlook from B2 with a negative outlook. A month later, Standard & Poor's followed suit, downgrading Turkey from B+ with a negative outlook to B with a stable outlook.

No generation or distribution facilities co-owned by CEZ Group were seriously damaged in the series of earthquakes in early February 2023.

GENERATION Segment

Nuclear Facilities

Existing Nuclear Plants

Electricity Generation

Nuclear power plants generated 31,021 GWh of electricity in 2022, which was 291 GWh more year-on-year. Of this, the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant generated 16,294 GWh, a year-on-year increase of 431 GWh (due to increased available capacity, shorter outages, and improved operations). The Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant generated 14,727 GWh, a year-on-year decrease of 141 GWh (mainly due to longer outages).

Capital Construction

Capital construction carried out at both nuclear sites focused mainly on improving nuclear safety, technical renewal of facilities, and compliance with legislative requirements under the Atomic Energy Act.

At the Dukovany plant, significant capital works were carried out to maintain a high level of safety, such as the replacement of the stable halon fire extinguishing equipment and upgrade of secondary switchgear. Renewal of the reinforced concrete shells of the cooling towers also continued.

The major capital construction projects at the Temelín site included, in particular, resumption of work on the thermal feeder from the Temelín power plant to České Budějovice and renewal of the control system for the non-unit operating sets. Generation renewal of control systems also continued. Hundreds of major and minor capital projects are underway at both sites to ensure the long-term and safe operation of both nuclear power plants.

Installed Capacity

The installed capacity of nuclear power plants of 4,290 MW remained unchanged year-on-year.

Outlook for 2023

We estimate nuclear power generation at 30 TWh in 2023. The availability of nuclear power plants is affected both by the timing of scheduled outages related to fuel replacement and the performance of scheduled maintenance, inspections and revisions of key equipment, and by activities aimed at continuous modernization and increasing the efficiency and reliability of the operation of the two plants. In particular, the Dukovany power plant will undertake a project to gradually clean the steam generators from 2023 onwards in order to mitigate the aging trend of the heat exchanger surfaces and increase their reliability.

Nuclear Power Plants in Preparation

Dukovany New Nuclear Power Plant (EDU II NNPP)

The new nuclear unit at Dukovany will partially replace the power output of the current plant in the future. On the basis of a resolution of the Czech government, the investor is Elektrárna Dukovany II, a. s.

In 2022, project preparation continued in accordance with the business plan and the first implementation agreement concluded between Elektrárna Dukovany II, ČEZ, and the state on cooperation in the construction of a new nuclear power plant at the Dukovany site.

In 2021, an application for a planning permission was submitted to the building authority of the Municipal Office in Třebíč. The Regional Authority of Vysočina Region has extended the current deadline for the decision until June 1, 2023. Based on the evaluation of the safety assessment of all three bidders for the construction—the American-Canadian company Westinghouse, the French company EDF, and the Korean company KHNP—the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic granted approval to start the tender procedure. On March 17, Elektrárna Dukovany II launched the tender for the supplier of the new nuclear power plant by approaching all three bidders.

During June 2022, visits were conducted by the bidders during which they were introduced to the site and provided with other necessary information to prepare their bids. All three bidders submitted initial bids on November 30. They are currently being checked and analyzed. Meetings with the bidders will be held from April to July 2023 and the bidders will be invited to improve their bids thereafter. Subsequently, bidders will have time until September 15, 2023, to prepare updated bids. The actual evaluation will continue until the end of 2023. During 2022, intensive preparation of documents defining the contractual relations of the project's next phases continued. Draft agreements on electricity purchase and investor agreements were submitted to the state. Negotiations between the state and the European Commission on the compatibility of the Czech state aid for the construction of the new nuclear power plant in Dukovany with EU state aid rules were also underway.

Temelín New Nuclear Power Plant (ETE NNPP)

Based on a resolution of the Czech government, it was determined that activities at the Temelín site must be managed in such a way as to maintain the value of the project, including ensuring the validity of existing permits and maintaining the possibility of its rapid activation if necessary. As requested by the ministry of industry and trade, a demand for non-binding options for the delivery of 3 more units, including units 3 and 4 at Temelín NPP, was added to the tender documentation for the supplier of EDU II NNPP tender.

During 2022, the necessary preparatory activities for the Small Modular Reactor (SMR) project continued. At the end of 2022, the first part of the geological investigations at the Temelín site was completed, where experts examined the subsurface in detail and identified the conditions for foundation and excavation works. Based on the preliminary conclusions of the surveys, it was announced that it is possible to build the SMRs at the Temelín site.

New Nuclear Facility at Jaslovské Bohunice

The construction of a new nuclear power plant in Jaslovské Bohunice is being prepared by Jadrová energetická spoločnosť Slovenska, a. s. (JESS), in which the CEZ Group company— ČEZ Invest Slovensko, a.s. (formerly ČEZ Bohunice)—owns a 49% stake.

In February 2022, JESS received a certificate from the ministry of economy for the construction of a new nuclear power plant. In April, a new construction law was adopted, which allows the zoning procedure to be handled by an envelope approach, i.e., without selecting a specific technology.

The priority activity for 2022 was the development of documentation for locating the NNPP according to the Atomic Energy Act. This documentation was fully prepared and submitted to the Office of Nuclear Supervision of the Slovak Republic on February 15, 2023, for the administrative procedure for locating the nuclear facility. At the same time, the design activities necessary to maintain the value of the project, to secure and deepen the information for site aspects (e.g., water management, seismicity, geology) are in progress. Negotiations with affected municipalities are held on an ongoing basis concerning the inclusion of the new nuclear power plant in land use planning documentation.

Renewable Sources (RES)

In this area, generation in renewable production sources, i.e., hydroelectric, photovoltaic, and wind power plants, is monitored. Biomass, which also belongs to renewable sources, is monitored in the emission source area due to its primary combustion together with coal.

Development

sníži

One of the key mechanisms for ensuring the construction of new RES in Czechia is the RES+ program of the Modernization Fund (ModF), which competes for investment support through regular calls for proposals. During June 2022, investment support contracts were signed between ČEZ, a. s., and the State Environmental Fund (SFŽP) for 17 projects from the 2021 call for proposals under call No. 2.

In the RES+ Call No. 2/2022 under the ModF, CEZ Group submitted 44 applications (50 projects) for photovoltaic power plants with a total installed capacity of ~1,012 MWp. The application is expected to be evaluated during April 2023. In order to meet the VISION 2030, CEZ Group is also preparing to implement projects without subsidy.

In Slovakia, the focus is now on the development of RES by Jadrová energetická spoločnosť Slovenska (JESS). In June, the company responded to a call from the Slovak Innovation and Energy Agency regarding the possibility of producing green hydrogen. A pilot project of a photovoltaic power plant with a nominal capacity of 9.99 MW on JESS brownfield land and the deployment of a 1 MW electrolyzer in the Trnava region for hydrogen generation and its use in transport are under preparation. This project is at the stage of selecting a suitable technology supplier. Due to the use of subsidies it has to be addressed through public procurement.

Capital Construction

By the end of 2022, 7 ČEZ PV projects (~49 MWp) in Czechia have received construction permits, with support already won under the 1st 2021 RES+ Call. At the same time, ČEZ has managed to launch a system of qualification of general contractors for PV construction and component supply, which will simplify and accelerate the actual commercial execution of construction in accordance with the announced conditions of the Modernization Fund.

In October 2022, the construction of the Křižany PV power plant without subsidy (4.3 MWp) was launched as a pilot project to verify and set up the work procedures and schedule for the implementation process. Commissioning is expected in H2 2023.

As part of another pilot PV plant project, the installation of the first floating solar power plant in Czechia with an output of 22 kWp was completed, located on the upper reservoir of the Štěchovice pumped-storage hydroelectric power plant. Subsequently, this PV plant was expanded by 65.36 kWp to a total installed capacity of 87.36 kWp. Commissioning will take place in H1 2023.

Installed Capacity

In Italy, installed capacity increased by 1.0 MW year-on-year due to starting trigeneration. In Austria, the installed capacity increased year-on-year by 0.1 MW due to the new photovoltaic panels installed by Syneco tec GmbH.5)

Outlook for 2023

In Czechia, electricity generation from photovoltaic plants is expected to reach 130 GWh.

Construction is expected to increase in Czechia and abroad, especially in Germany.

Wind

Electricity Generation

Wind power plants in Czechia generated 9 GWh of electricity, a year-on-year increase of 1 GWh.

German CEZ Group's wind power plants generated 255 GWh of electricity in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 27 GWh. The cause of the year-on-year increase is mainly due to below-average weather conditions and also to the shutdown of some turbines for necessary repairs in 2021.

Turkey's Ayyıldız RES wind power plant generated 82 GWh.6)

Capital Construction

In Czechia, CEZ Group signed the first cooperation agreement with the municipality of Zátor near Krnov for the construction of a wind park in Czechia. A wind power plant with a capacity of approx. 20 MW and about five turbines could be built in the area within seven years. Zátor is the first ever municipality to develop a joint venture project with ČEZ. The principle of partnership is unique—municipalities have the opportunity to participate in the project's design from its early stages and benefit from its operation for at least 25 years. In Germany, CEZ Group's focus in the field of renewables is on the operation of wind power plants and the co-development of a wind portfolio consisting of 12 projects with a planned capacity of up to 193.5 MW. The most advanced German co-developed project is Datteln (11.4 MW, 2 turbines), with the project expected to be commissioned by the end of 2023. Another advanced project is Nortorf (11.4 MW, 2 turbines). The building permit is expected to be issued in H1 2023. In France, CEZ Group continued to develop 15 onshore wind power projects with a planned capacity of up to 207 MW. Construction of the Aschères-le-Marché project (12 MW, 4 turbines) was completed in December 2022. In 2023, the plants were put into test operation.

sníži

Electricity Generation

Coal-fired power plants in Czechia generated 15,676 GWh of electricity in 2022 (excluding biomass), a year-on-year decrease of 455 GWh. A decrease in generation was recorded at the Ledvice 4 power plant due to longer outages in 2022. Other coal-fired power plants generated more year-on-year due to higher deployment and shorter outages.

CEZ Group's coal-fired facilities in Poland generated (excluding biomass generation) 1,845 GWh of electricity, a year-on-year increase of 22 GWh.

Capital Construction

In Czechia, the greening projects of units 23 and 24 of the Tušimice power plant were implemented in 2022 in accordance with the plan, which will enable continued operation even if the new BAT emission limits are in force. Preparatory and design work also continued to ensure actions related to the renewal and further greening of Unit B6 at the Ledvice power plant (expected implementation in 2024).

In May, the implementation of greening of the Dvůr Králové nad Labem heating plant was started, the construction site for the new gas boiler was handed over, and the commercial ensuring the biomass boiler construction continues. The complete greening and renovation of the heating plant is expected to be completed by the end of 2024.

In September, the construction of the Hodonín power plant's circulation cooling circuit was started, which will reduce cooling water consumption and enable the plant to operate even in the event of a water shortage in the Morava River during the summer season.

At other sources in Czechia, work continued on projects primarily aimed at maintaining safe operation, improving reliability, and efficiency of generating equipment. In Poland, the main investment project is the construction of new generation units of upgraded generation at Skawina, where the design phase (permits for the construction of new facilities and the transmission gas pipeline) started in 2022. Furthermore, investment funds at Skawina power plant were mainly spent on modernizing the boilers. At the Chorzów power plant, investments were mainly related to the overhaul of Unit 2.

Installed Capacity

The installed capacity of coal-fired power plants in Czechia, amounting to 3,748 MW, remained unchanged year-on-year. In Poland, installed capacity was 568 MW, also unchanged year-on-year.

Outlook for 2023

Coal-fired power plants in Czechia are expected to generate 14.8 TWh of electricity in 2023. The priority task is to continue preparatory activities for the transition of sites to low-emission sources, in particular to ensure heat supply and to implement other environmental measures that will enable the operation of conventional sources in compliance with the new applicable emission limits. Another key task is the commercial provision of new natural gas-based generation technology at the Mělník site, which will enable the fulfillment of the long-term heat supply agreement for the capital city of Prague, Mělník, and Neratovice.

The Chorzów and Skawina power plants are planned to generate 2 TWh of electricity in 2023.

Gas

Electricity Generation

Natural gas-fired facilities generated 2,454 GWh of electricity in Czechia, a year-on-year decrease of 699 GWh. Of these, 2,072 GWh were generated in the GENERATION segment, 686 GWh less year-on-year (mainly due to worse market conditions for the operation of the Počerady II CCGT plant), and 382 GWh of electricity were generated in the SALES segment, 14 GWh less year-on-year.

The Turkish Erzin CCGT plant generated 3,088 GWh.7)

Capital Construction

In 2022, preparatory work continued for the planned construction of new CCGT plants in Mělník and Počerady. In Turkey, capital construction expenditures were mainly directed to repairs of the power plant in Erzin.

Installed Capacity

Installed capacity amounted to 971 MW, a year-on-year increase of 3 MW, mainly due to the installation of ČEZ Energo cogeneration units in Czechia and the launch of trigeneration in Italy in cooperation with the Italian Federal Mogul plants. The installed capacity of the Turkish Erzin CCGT plant was 904 MW.

Outlook for 2023

The largest gas-fired power plant in Czechia, Počerady, is expected to generate 3.0 TWh. At the same time, analyses and preparatory work will continue for possible future installations of gas-fired facilities at existing generating sites. The volume of electricity generated in Turkey is estimated at 3,405 GWh.

7) CEZ Group has a 50% stake in the Turkish companies, they are consolidated using the equity method, and therefore their generation and installed capacity are not included in CEZ Group's aggregate figures.

Biomass

Electricity Generation

Generation in Czechia amounted to 453 GWh, a year-on-year decrease of 132 GWh due to higher biomass prices.

The Polish power plants Chorzów and Skawina generated 296 GWh, a year-on-year decrease of 15 GWh. The reason for the lower amount of biomass burned in 2022 was its limited availability on the market.

In Italy, generation reached 21 GWh, a year-on-year increase of 10 GWh.

Capital Construction

Capital construction expenditure was mainly directed to a biomass power plant project with an installed capacity of 10 MW in Turkey, which Akenerji is preparing for operation.

Installed Capacity

In Italy, capacity was increased by 2 MW year-on-year with the acquisition of the SOCIETA' AGRICOLA B.T.C. S.R.L. biogas plant to a total of 3 MW.

A biomass co-firing or firing is also taking place in Czechia and Poland.

The Turkish company Akenerji practically controls the company that owns the 1 MW biomass power plant. No electricity generation was carried out in this plant in 2022.

Outlook for 2023

In 2023, 403 GWh are estimated to be generated in Czechia due to higher prices and lower availability of biomass. The volume of electricity generated in Turkey is estimated at 32 GWh.

Pyrolysis

Electricity Generation

Electricity generation using pyrolysis is carried out in the CEZ Group only at the Turkish power plant AKEL SUNGURLU, where 5 GWh of electricity was generated in 2022.8)

Capital expenditure was directed mainly to the pyrolysis project in 2022.

Installed Capacity

The installed capacity of the Turkish power plant with pyrolysis technology for the energy recovery of old tires was 2.2 MW.

Outlook for 2023

The volume of electricity generated is estimated to be 12 GWh.

Fuel in Czechia

Nuclear Fuel

Despite the unprecedented situation following Russia's military invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent EU sanctions, the supply of nuclear fuel from Russia in 2022 has been secured. Fuel for the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant is sourced under a long-term contract with TVEL JSC, which not only fabricates the fuel but also provides conversion and enrichment services as well as some of the base uranium raw material. In 2020, fuel was supplied for the first time with a higher enrichment (Gd-2M+; 4.76%), which is gradually loaded from 2021. This fuel is used at an increased output of 105% in a full five-year fuel cycle. In addition, it is possible to switch to a more economically advantageous 16-month fuel cycle with this fuel. A new fuel type (PK3+) is currently being developed for even more efficient fuel use. Concurrently, a project is undertaken for further utilization of design margins and possible increase of thermal power to a level of 107%.

In order to ensure the safety of nuclear fuel supply at the Dukovany NPP, activities are underway to introduce an alternative supplier of nuclear fuel with the aim of gradually reducing fuel procurement from TVEL JSC.

The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant also continued to operate with TVEL JSC fuel in both units based on a long-term fuel contract. The TVSA-T fuel facilitated switching to operation with an increased output of 104% in a four-year fuel cycle and has the potential to enable safe operation of the units in a partial work cycle of five years. A fifth loading of an advanced type of fuel with increased uranium content and enhanced structural rigidity (TVSA-T.mod.2) was loaded into Unit 2 in 2022, allowing further increase in the efficiency of fuel utilization. From 2019 to 2022, 6 LTA fuel assemblies from Westinghouse Electric Sweden AB were operated in the first unit of Temelín NPP. At the same time, Temelín NPP is transitioning to an 18-month fuel cycle. A selection procedure was carried out to secure fuel for the period after the end of supply under the existing contract with TVEL JSC, which was completed in June 2022. The winning bidders are Westinghouse Electric Sweden AB and Framatome GmbH.

8) CEZ Group has a 50% stake in the Turkish companies, they are consolidated using the equity method, and therefore their generation and installed capacity are not included in CEZ Group's aggregate figures.

Desirable diversification of the supply base is maintained as recommended by the supply management policy of the EURATOM Supply Agency. In order to mitigate the risk of an interruption or other threats to timely supplies of nuclear fuel, ČEZ previously decided to increase the share of fuel fabricated at its power plant sites while decreasing the strategic inventory of uranium in various stages of processing kept by its suppliers. At the moment, there are fuel reserves in the plants covering the needs of the Dukovany NPP for at least 3 years and the Temelín NPP for 2 years of operation. In view of the current situation, the increase of nuclear fuel stocks will continue, at least until the operation of the plants with fuel from new suppliers is verified.

For the production of nuclear fuel, both uranium raw material and its processing (conversion and enrichment services) were procured under long-term contracts, either by purchases from foreign suppliers or by direct fuel deliveries from a fuel producer. This practice will continue in the coming years. To this end, tenders will be held for contracting new supplies of natural uranium, conversion, and enrichment services.

Solid Fossil Fuels and Sorbents

The highest share of solid fuels supplied to CEZ Group's coal-fired power plants in Czechia in 2022 consisted of brown coal, in the total amount of 12,684 thousand tons (96% of coal supplied). The top suppliers of brown thermal coal to ČEZ included Severočeské doly and Sokolovská uhelná. The principal amount of 12,160 thousand tons (96% of brown coal) was supplied by Severočeské doly, a member of CEZ Group. Long-term coal supply contracts have been made with Severočeské doly (in effect until 2052—sales precontract) and Sokolovská uhelná (until 2025).

The amount of supplies of hard coal for the CEZ Group power plants in the territory of Czechia amounted to 572 thousand tons, of which 412 thousand tons were supplied by OKD; the remaining volume was secured by imports. In the case of foreign imports, we do not purchase coal originating from the Russian Federation. Short-term purchase agreements are concluded for the supply of hard coal to the Dětmarovice power plant.

Sorbents for flue gas desulfurization at CEZ Group's coal-fired power plants in Czechia are delivered under long-term purchase contracts. Sorbent deliveries amounted to 694 thousand tons in 2022.

Biomass

Biomass deliveries procured within CEZ Group in Czechia totaled 588 thousand tons in 2022. Biomass was burned in the Hodonín power plant, where 334 thousand tons were delivered, in the Poříčí power plant, where 206 thousand tons were delivered, and in the heating plant in Otín near Jindřichův Hradec, where 48 thousand tons were delivered. For the operation of the Hodonín and Poříčí power plants we use biomass in the form of wood chips. We burn sustainable biomass in accordance with applicable legislation (European RED II Directive and certification of CEZ Group facilities and our biomass suppliers).

Natural Gas

Natural gas supplies for the operation of gas boilers and for the start-up and stabilization of CEZ Group's facilities amounted to 0.2 TWh in 2022. Natural gas is used as fuel in the Prunéřov, Dětmarovice, Tušimice, Temelín, and Ledvice power plants, as well as in the Dvůr Králové nad Labem and Trmice heating plants. In November 2022, the boiler house of ČEZ Teplárenská in the Dětmarovice area was incorporated into the contract. For the CCGT Počerady II power plant, natural gas is purchased on the wholesale market. For 2022, 4.1 TWh of natural gas was consumed, a year-on-year decrease of 1.3 TWh due to unfavorable market conditions.

Trading

Trading activities include trading commodities on one's own account for speculative profit, trading to secure the needs of generation resources including hedging activities in the medium term, and trading to secure the needs of end-use customers, in particular the supply of electricity and gas. The activity is managed centrally from Czechia by ČEZ. The actual trading, including the settlement of trades, takes place in several European countries with wholesale partners and through energy exchanges. At the same time, CEZ Group operates trading companies in several countries that provide local support for CEZ trading and concurrent sales of commodities to end-use customers.

All trading activities are subject to risk frameworks, defining market and credit limits, permitted trades, and trading rules, compliance with which is continuously monitored by the CEZ Group Risk Committee. Activities are also subject to EFET regulatory rules.

Trading Commodities on Own Account for Speculative Profit

Throughout 2022, high volatility persisted in commodity markets and, particularly in H1 2022, commodity prices continued to increase to the record levels reached at the end of August. ČEZ's trading team managed to make the most of the increased volatility. Trading margin for 2022 reached a record high of over EUR 1 billion, with 68% generated from commodity trading in Western European markets, 23% from commodity trading in Central and Eastern European markets, and 9% from other trading (mainly emission allowances and options and structured trades). A part of the trading margin (corresponding to the difference between internal demand for a transaction and contracted external trade) will be reflected in CEZ Group's economic result only in the year of delivery, i.e., in future years. In particular, this concerns ongoing hedging of future electricity generation, emission allowance purchases for generation, or electricity and gas purchases for end-use customers.

Within trading activities, more than 243 thousand transactions were concluded and among other commodities, 419 TWh of electricity, 1,912 TWh of natural gas, and 618 million tons of emission allowances were traded in 2022.

The economic effect of proprietary trading is generated primarily in ČEZ, a. s.

Margin Deposits (Security Deposits) Related to Generation Presales

In the context of record electricity price increases, trading puts pressure on liquidity, as generators have to post high deposits (margin deposits). This refers to cash temporarily deposited on exchanges and with trading counterparties in connection with generation presales. The value of deposits on exchanges reflects the overall lower contracted prices of electricity, emission allowances, and gas in the past compared to current high market prices (so-called variation margin and initial margin), while for trading counterparties the value usually corresponds to the variation margin above the limit set according to the creditworthiness of the respective counterparty. As the contracted quantities are delivered over time, these cash resources are returned to the generators. This is the effect of the standard operation of credit risk hedging for all counterparties, but given the unprecedented increase in commodity prices over the last year and the extreme increase in volatility, the significant liquidity risk is caused to all energy generators who normally hedge their generation through presales of their output.

MINING Segment

Brown Coal

Mining, treatment, and sales of brown coal are the main business activities of Severočeské doly, which is the largest Czech brown coal mining company in terms of coal production volume. Since a majority of its production is intended for CEZ Group, Severočeské doly is one of the smaller players in the free coal market.

Coal Mining and Sales

Severočeské doly sold a total of 17.8 million tons of fuel in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 1.8 million tons. The reason for the significant increase was mainly due to the energy crisis in Europe and the need to secure the electricity missing from the gas supply.

Coal Sales, by Customer (Millions of Tons)

Members of CEZ Group

Power plants and heating plants over 50 MW outside CEZ Group

Others, including facilities up to 50 MW outside CEZ Group

Expos

Capital Construction

The investment program of Severočeské doly was focused on projects to ensure extraction at the Bílina Mine and Nástup Tušimice Mine. The structure of capital projects consisted mainly of deliveries, reconstruction, and upgrades of mining, transport, and treatment technology, water management structures, operational mine works, and environmental structures including protection measures.

Outlook for 2023

Mining of 18.2 million tons of brown coal is estimated. The sufficient volume of recoverable reserves makes it possible to respond within certain limits to the current qualitative and quantitative requirements of the market.

Limestone

LOMY MOŘINA spol. s r.o.9), is involved in limestone mining in CEZ Group.The core business consists of quarrying and processing of construction aggregates, which are supplied to entities outside CEZ Group, and of high percentage limestones used in desulfurization (FGD) systems. The company is a major supplier for FGD systems at ČEZ coal-fired power plants, to which it supplies an annual quantity covering approximately 80% of their consumption. In 2022, limestone supplies for ČEZ's power plants amounted to approx. 550 thousand tons. The estimate for 2023 is approximately 630 thousand tons. Verified limestone reserves allow sustained, long-term extraction operations.

Zinnwaldite Mining Exploration

In March 2020, ČEZ decided to join a lithium ore extraction project at Cínovec. The original developer of the project, European Metals Holdings Limited (EMH), held a 100% stake in GEOMET, the holder of an exclusive license for exploration for zinnwaldite, a lithium-containing mineral. CEZ Group's Severočeské doly acquired a 51% stake in GEOMET through an increase of its stated capital in H1 2020. Since joining the project, the first version of the feasibility study for the mining part has been completed and the verification of the lithium processing process under semi-operating conditions is ongoing. In the permitting area, preparatory work on the technical documentation has continued and several permitting processes have been formally initiated.

DISTRIBUTION Segment

Electricity Distribution

Czechia

Electricity distribution is provided by ČEZ Distribuce in 66% of Czechia. As at December 31, 2022, more than 3.77 million service points were connected to the Company's distribution grid, to which it provided 34,790 GWh of electricity in 2022. The year-on-year decrease by 1,761 GWh was due to lower demand at all voltage levels. At medium and high voltage, there was a decrease of 595 GWh, mainly due to the energy crisis. At the low voltage level, consumption decreased by 1,166 GWh year-on-year, mainly due to changes in the energy market (increasing prices of electricity as a commodity, boom in heat pumps, installation of decentralized sources), partly also due to higher average temperatures in 2022.

In electricity distribution, all prices are regulated by the Energy Regulatory Office.

Customer Service

Digitization and activities aimed at simplifying and speeding up the processing of customer requests continued. Robots were deployed to automatically assess project documentation for the connection of microgenerators and to automatically process incoming requests for connection of service points up to and including 3× 25 A. Currently, with a few exceptions requiring manual authorization, all such requests are automatically processed and the customer receives a draft connection agreement promptly. The number of digitally received requests from customers has been increased by 33%.

The Proud mobile app was also launched in mid-2022, providing customers with online access to information about their connection points, the ability to enter certain requests or to report periodic or checking readings of a meter made by customers themselves.

An EMA (Energy Modern Assistant) chatbot has been deployed on the customer care line since mid-October to assist with routine customer requests. It can serve up to 100 customers at a time and handle about 15% of all voice requests. One of the most significant features of 2022 was the huge increase in the number of requests for renewable energy connections, and therefore the challenge of managing all these requests within the deadlines. During 2022, 70.2 thousand renewable energy connection requests were received, more than four times higher than in 2021. A dedicated online webinar was held for interested renewable electricity generators, focusing on the application process and the actual connection of the renewable source.

ČEZ Distribuce faced several emergencies caused by very strong winds in 2022.

Capital Construction

Investments were directed at the renewal of distribution grids of all voltage levels, reconstruction of power stations, and renewal of transformers and electricity meters. A significant part of the investment was spent on developing the distribution system, mainly to cover the increasing number of customer requirements for connection including the development of grid traffic management. ČEZ Distribuce is thus meeting the considerable interest in connecting microgenerators (sources with an installed capacity of up to 10 kW) and photovoltaic power plants, which electricity consumers are using to respond to the energy crisis. Investments in digitization, smart technologies, and the development of optic infrastructure also continued.

Outlook for 2023

ČEZ Distribuce estimates its 2023 electricity supplies to customers at almost 36 TWh. The volume of supply is based on the expected development of electricity consumption after taking into account changes in the energy market, especially the increase in electricity prices, the boom in heat pumps, or the installation of decentralized sources and micro-sources.

Turkey

CEZ Group together with its Turkish partner AKKÖK (through the joint venture Akcez Enerji A.S.) indirectly controls Sakarya Elektrik Dagıtım A.S. (SEDAS).

The volume of electricity distributed to end-use customers was 10,018 GWh in 2022.

In July 2022, ČEZ signed an agreement to sell its stake in Akcez Enerji. At the end of the year, applications for approval from the antimonopoly authority and the regulator were submitted. The new shareholders signed a shareholder agreement which becomes effective upon settlement of the sale. In order to successfully complete the sale, the loans of the AKCEZ Group companies must be refinanced and the transaction must be approved by the Turkish regulator. The antimonopoly authority approved the transaction in January 2023, followed by the regulator in February 2023.

Capital Construction

Investments were mainly directed towards strengthening capacity and meeting new connection requirements, as well as upgrading and increasing network density to ensure continuity and quality of electricity supply.

Outlook for 2023

The volume of electricity distributed is estimated to be 10,442 GWh.

Natural Gas Distribution

Gas distribution in Czechia is provided by ČEZ Energetické služby 10), which distributed 642 GWh of gas to end-use customers in 2022, a year-on-year decrease of 86 GWh.

Outlook for 2023

The volume of natural gas distributed is estimated to be 687 GWh.

10) The company is classified in the SALES segment in view of the predominant activity and focus of the parent company ČEZ ESCO.

SALES Segment

The SALES segment includes companies selling commodities, heat, complex energy services, and telecommunications services. Companies in the SALES segment engaged in the provision of B2B energy services are divided into two basic groups. The Czech company ČEZ ESCO covers the relevant activities in Czechia and Slovakia. Elevion Group operates in other foreign markets, namely in Germany, Italy, Romania, Austria, Israel, the Netherlands, France, Hungary, China, Malaysia, and the UK. ČEZ Prodej and TENAUR provide energy services to retail customers.

Commodity Sales

Electricity Sales

Czechia

In 2022, CEZ Group offered electricity to end-use customers in Czechia through ČEZ Prodej, ČEZ ESCO, ENESA, ČEZ Energo, Energetické centrum, and also through companies in the GENERATION segment: ČEZ, Elektrárna Dětmarovice, Energotrans, and ÚJV Řež.

A total of 20,667 GWh of electricity was sold to customers in Czechia, mainly by ČEZ Prodej and ČEZ ESCO. The delivered volume increased by 2,007 GWh year-on-year.

In Czechia, sales of commodities to end-use residential customers and smaller companies are provided by ČEZ Prodej. By the end of 2022, ČEZ Prodej had slightly over 2.7 million service points. Commodity sales volumes in H1 were impacted by customers returning to normal lifestyles following the rollout of COVID-19 measures. In H2, customer behavior was fundamentally affected by the unprecedented price increases in the energy markets, which was reflected in higher prices charged to both new and existing customers. This led to significant savings in residential customer consumption. Another factor affecting end-use consumption was the significantly higher average temperature in 2022 than in 2021.

Corporate, municipal, and public authority customers are supplied with electricity by ČEZ ESCO, which covers all their energy needs from the supply of commodities to energy services within CEZ Group. By the end of 2022, ČEZ ESCO had slightly more than 118 thousand service points. In 2022, ČEZ ESCO increased its market share (number of customers, number of service points, and volume of commodity delivered). The main reason for this was significant acquisitions in Q4 2021 closely related to the energy crisis, during which some energy suppliers in Czechia ceased their operations. This situation continued in Q1 2022, when additional licensees ceased operations.

The further increase in energy prices on wholesale markets driven by uncertainty regarding natural gas supplies from Russia caused on some specific days the suspension of the submission of offers for the sale of electricity and natural gas by ČEZ ESCO to end-use customers from the B2B segment. Furthermore, it resulted in the Czech government announcing the introduction of price caps for electricity and gas for 2023. This has significantly affected the intensity and manner of negotiating energy supplies for 2023.

A significant part of the market of corporate customers and the public sector had to choose their supplier during the last 2 to 3 months of the year, moreover with such a narrowed product range that did not present risks for energy suppliers related to compensation against price caps. For this reason, the vast majority of contracts were negotiated with a price that is fully or partially derived from the daily market. ČEZ ESCO was once again able to take advantage of efficiently adjusted processes and sales channels, enabling it to attract a significant portion of customers who did not have their supplier secured for 2023.

The 2022 commodity supply itself was strongly affected by the increasing price in the short-term markets where supply balancing occurs, as well as the spike in imbalances' settlement costs caused by the increase in the cost of regulating energy due to the shortage of electricity in Europe and the transition to the European platforms for the exchange of regulating energy MARI (mFRR) and PICASSO (aFRR). Both of these facts have significantly increased the cost of electricity supplies to end-use customers.

Outlook for 2023

CEZ Group expects a decrease in electricity supply to enduse customers in 2023 compared to 2022 due to cost-saving measures introduced by residential customers in response to high commodity prices and concerns about natural gas shortages. For 2023, it is assumed that there will be no significant changes in the structure and size of the portfolio due to regulation and price capping (i.e., setting maximum prices). Following the price capping, a government regulation on the compensation to be provided for the supply of electricity and gas at fixed prices was approved on January 4, 2023. The compensation scheme sets out the way in which traders will be compensated for the cost of acquiring commodities for customers with a capped electricity price of CZK 5/kWh (excl. VAT).

Slovakia

SPRAVBYTKOMFORT, a.s., Prešov, sold 4 GWh of electricity to end-use customers.

VESER also sold electricity to customers in 2021, representing 70 GWh of electricity sales in the relevant period. As at April 1, 2021, its customer portfolio of commodity sales had been sold, which was the reason for the significant year-on-year decrease in electricity sales in Slovakia. As at January 19, 2022, VESER was deleted from the Commercial Register.

Hungary

CEZ Magyarország Kft. (CEZ Hungary Ltd.) sold 1,771 GWh of electricity to end-use customers in Hungary in 2022, which was a year-on-year increase of 304 GWh. The growth was mainly driven by active market activity to increase market share.

Outlook for 2023

The total amount of CEZ Magyarország Kft. supplies in 2023 is estimated at 2,667 GWh. The reason for the increase in supply volume is market consolidation, where CEZ Magyarország Kft. remains a stable and trustworthy partner despite the difficult market situation.

Turkey

Sakarya Elektrik Perakende Satis A.S. (SEPAS), a company controlled through the joint venture Akcez Enerji A.S., sells electricity to end-use customers mostly in the SEDAS distribution area. The amount of electricity sold in 2022 was 11,382 GWh.

In July 2022, ČEZ signed an agreement to sell its stake in Akcez Enerji. At the end of the year, applications for approval from the antimonopoly authority and the regulator were submitted. The new shareholders signed a shareholder agreement which becomes effective upon settlement of the sale. In order to successfully complete the sale, the loans of the AKCEZ Group companies must be refinanced and the transaction must be approved by the Turkish regulator. The antimonopoly authority approved the transaction in January 2023, followed by the regulator in February 2023.

Outlook for 2023

The volume of electricity sold is estimated to be 12,630 GWh.

Heat Generation and Sales

Czechia

The heating industry is undergoing dynamic changes and must respond to decarbonization trends and CEZ Group's strategic goals.

The prices of heat supplied increased by 8% on average in 2022, and for 2023, the price from brown coal sources is expected to increase by 20% on average due to the energy crisis and the rising costs of emission sources in Europe. Central heating supply is highly stable and has very low price volatility compared to available alternatives, as confirmed by the high increase in demand for new connections. The main objective remains to ensure a long-term, reliable heat supply at a favorable price, with a high level of comfort and safety and environmental standards.

During H1 2022, the strategic concept for three sites (Dětmarovice, Prunéřov, Tušimice, and Trmice) was completed. In all these locations, work is continuing on the implementation of the construction of low-emission facilities. The first facility that has already been completed as part of the transformation of the heating sector is the gas boiler house in Dětmarovice. In 2022, ČEZ Teplárenská supplied heat generated both from its own sources, which are mainly its own or leased domestic and block gas boilers, and heat purchased from ČEZ or other suppliers.

CEZ Group companies engaged in the generation and sale of heat in Czechia sold 16,870 TJ, a year-on-year decrease of 2,914 TJ due to warmer weather. Of these, companies in the GENERATION segment (Energotrans, ČEZ, ÚJV Řež, Elektrárna Dětmarovice) sold 9,322 TJ, a year-on-year decrease of 1,061 TJ. In the SALES segment, heat generation and sales are handled by ČEZ Teplárenská, ČEZ Energo, Energetické centrum, ČEZ Energetické služby, and ENESA, supplying a total of 7,548 TJ of heat in 2022, a year-on-year decrease of 1,853 TJ.

Outlook for 2023

In 2023, 9,315 TJ of heat is estimated to be supplied in the GENERATION segment and 7,500 TJ of heat in the SALES segment.

Poland

The Polish power plants Chorzów and Skawina 11) sold 5,994 TJ of heat, a year-on-year decrease of 2 TJ.

Outlook for 2023

The volume of heat generated is planned at 5,898 TJ.

Slovakia

In Slovakia, 599 TJ of heat were sold from CEZ Group facilities to customers, a year-on-year decrease of 84 TJ.

Outlook for 2023

CEZ Group plans to continue transforming the heating industry to transform its generation portfolio in order to achieve climate neutrality.

The newly acquired company BIOPEL will also supply heat.

Sales of Natural Gas

Czechia

In 2022, CEZ Group offered natural gas to end-use customers in Czechia through ČEZ Prodej, ČEZ ESCO, ČEZ, and ČEZ Energo.

A total of 8,110 GWh of gas was supplied to customers in Czechia, mainly by ČEZ Prodej and ČEZ ESCO. The volume delivered increased by 1,457 GWh year-on-year. Sales of commodities to end-use residential customers and smaller companies are provided by ČEZ Prodej. ČEZ ESCO supplies gas to company, municipal, and state administration customers. By the end of 2022, ČEZ Prodej had approximately 570 thousand service points and ČEZ ESCO almost 9 thousand service points.

In 2022, ČEZ ESCO increased its market share (number of customers, number of service points, and volume of commodity supplies). The main reason for this was, as in the case of electricity, significant acquisitions in Q4 2021 closely related to the energy crisis, during which a number of energy suppliers in Czechia ceased operations.

The continued increase in energy prices on wholesale markets, driven by uncertainty about natural gas supplies from Russia, caused a de-facto halt in business activities and resulted in the Czech government announcing the introduction of price caps for the gas commodity for 2023. This has significantly affected the intensity and manner of negotiating energy supplies for 2023.

Outlook for 2023

CEZ Group expects a decrease in natural gas supply to end-use customers in 2023 compared to 2022 due to cost-saving measures adopted by residential customers due to high commodity prices and concerns about natural gas shortages. For 2023, it is assumed that there will be no significant changes in the structure and size of the portfolio due to regulation and price caps. Following the price capping, a government decree on the compensation to be provided for the supply of electricity and gas at fixed prices was approved on January 4, 2023. The compensation scheme sets out the way in which traders will be compensated for the cost of acquiring commodities for customers with a capped price (CZK 2.50/kWh excl. VAT).

Slovakia

In 2021, natural gas was sold to customers by VESER, which sold 154 GWh of natural gas in the period. As at April 1, 2021, its customer portfolio of commodity sales has been sold. As at January 19, 2022, VESER was deleted from the Commercial Register.

Outlook for 2023

Natural gas will not be supplied to end-use customers.

Sales of Energy Services

Czechia

The emphasis of customers on savings and their need for increased independence from energy suppliers is driving the energy industry towards decentralized, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly energy sources.

The market for guaranteed energy savings increased in 2022 and ČEZ ESCO continued to consolidate its dominant position in it, making a significant contribution to the society-wide commitment to reducing energy consumption and decarbonization. Customers are implementing not only energy cost savings, but also water savings and greenhouse gas emission reductions.

Sharply increasing electricity and natural gas prices, as well as the risk of shortages, have triggered a huge market interest in alternative solutions, including in particular heat pumps and battery energy storage, but also a combination of several technologies, i.e., photovoltaic power plants with simultaneous optimization of control and operation.

Other smart solutions include a tool for providing ancillary services. During 2022, most of the cogeneration units offered by ČEZ ESCO in its portfolio were certified and started to be offered under price arbitrage for mFRR 12) +/- services. In 2023, this project will continue to be intensively developed with the involvement of other sources.

Public Lighting for CZK 1 product has been introduced for municipalities, whereby the municipalities do not buy the upgraded lighting but lease it with an option to buy it back in the future. The investment is essentially paid back in the form of a lease and is covered by the savings achieved by replacing the luminaires with more efficient ones while optimizing their luminosity. In total, public lighting has been built in 38 municipalities with an aggregate saving of 78% in lighting energy.

Both ČEZ Prodej and ČEZ ESCO installed a record number of photovoltaic power plants in 2022. ČEZ Prodej also offers modern energy technologies to customers in its network of customer centers, where they can consult their questions with a technology specialist. The largest technology showroom is located in the customer care center in Plzeň. The interest of ČEZ ESCO's clients has increased significantly due to the situation on the electricity market and the newly announced subsidy titles from the National Renewal Plan or the Modernization Fund. Construction of many important roof projects has been carried out or started.

At the same time, a higher demand for the Photovoltaics for CZK 1 product is registered, where the customers do not pay the implementation costs, increase their independence from the electricity supplier and at the same time reduce their carbon footprint. This product is used, for example, by clients in the conference center and automotive sectors. In 2022, further expansion of TENAUR, a company dedicated to the development and installation of modern technologies for households, was underway. Two new branches were created, in Benešov and České Budějovice, bringing the total number of branches to 8. External subcontractors have now made a significant contribution to full installations.

Outlook for 2023

ČEZ ESCO intends to further develop existing products and develop new ones, since savings in electricity, gas, heat, and water, as well as energy self-sufficiency and decarbonization are becoming more topical than before.

ČEZ ESCO expects further growth in cooperation with entities involved in heat generation and supply in order to "green" the heating industry in Czechia. For the company, this area represents long-term potential for the application of energy-saving solutions, especially for products related to energy savings, smart optimization of operations, ideally using automated tools or software, and products related to decarbonization.

Slovakia

ESCO Slovensko is aiming to be the market leader in energy services, similar to ČEZ ESCO in Czechia. Within the energy services provided, the company has started to offer new products as a service: photovoltaics as a service, heating and cooling as a service, and pellet boiler plant operation as a service. In H1 2022, the acquisition of ELIMER, dealing with high- and low-voltage installations, and in December 2022, the acquisition of BIOPEL, dealing with the production of wood pellets from waste wood and heat from these pellets, were realized. However, there have also been significant price increases for input materials and commodities, with a particular impact on the profitability of projects already contracted.

Outlook for 2023

ESCO Slovensko is reporting customer interest in the installation of photovoltaic power plants, solutions to reduce energy consumption, and a complete shift away from gas consumption. In the case of public administration, it sees increased activity and demand for energy services, also due to the efforts of cities, regions, and state organizations to address budget shortfalls due to the increase in commodity and heat prices.

12) mFRR is a type of ancillary service provided to the transmission system ("frequency restoration reserves with manual activation").

Germany

sníži

Elevion Group operates in 3 areas covering a wide range of ESCO services: energy solutions for buildings, green energy, energy for industry. BELECTRIC group was the main contributor to the revenue increase in 2022.

Elevion Group operates in the German market through the subsidiaries listed below.

In the field of building energy solutions, the most important companies are Rudolf Fritz GmbH (low-voltage and control systems), ETS Efficient Technical Solutions GmbH (building technical security), EAB Elektroanlagenbau GmbH Rhein/Main (technical building automation equipment), or D-I-E Elektro AG (electrical engineering, automation, and building technical security). Other important companies in this segment include En.plus GmbH (consulting and planning, implementation, service, and operation of energy-efficient building equipment and systems), Elektro-Decker GmbH (electrical engineering), and Kofler Energies (engineering services in the field of technical building equipment, also providing comprehensive coverage in the area of "energy-efficient planning"). The most important representative in the field of green energy in Germany is BELECTRIC (expert in the development and construction of solar power plants). Energy solutions for industry are provided by the companies of the Hermos group (an international group offering automation services and IT solutions for industry, energy, environmental, and building technology).

Outlook for 2023

Given the importance and potential of the German ESCO services market, CEZ Group expects organic and acquisitive increase in this key European market with the aim of further strengthening its market share and expanding its activities along the entire value chain. At the same time, it expects 2023 to be further affected by the consequences of the military conflict in Ukraine and rising inflation. Increasing prices and higher interest rates will have a negative impact on the construction sector. Given the current situation, the transition to new alternative energy sources is becoming increasingly important for this segment. The goals of a successful energy transition in Germany may only be achieved through a significant increase in energy-efficient renovations. The current sharp increase in energy prices is creating further incentives to invest in building optimization. Digitization and sustainability are the most important topics that open up new opportunities for the construction industry.

Poland

CEZ Group provides ESCO services through Euroklimat, Metrolog, and OEM Energy.

Euroklimat is a general contractor of sanitary and electrical works, telecommunication networks, and IT installations. Euroklimat offers implementation, maintenance, and design services. It supplied HVAC systems and electrical installations. Metrolog is one of the leading manufacturers of compact heating nodes on the Polish market, offering comprehensive implementation of projects in the field of thermal energy and construction of water treatment systems. High gas and coal prices and their limited supply caused the collapse of the Polish CHP market in 2022, which is one of Metrolog's main business areas. In response to this problem, Metrolog reorganized its energy contract execution division and managed to increase its contract execution potential in the drinking water market using its own engineering capabilities, which fully compensated for the energy segment decrease. Metrolog has also developed and launched a new product in the heating nodes segment—Met Box.

Outlook for 2023

The Polish market faced extremely difficult market conditions, mainly due to the war in Ukraine, lack of resources, and volatile prices of materials and subcontractors. CEZ Group expects a reduction in demand for large logistics centers due to a reduction in consumer demand in the retail segment in which Euroklimat operates. The Polish green energy segment is expected to develop further due to the shift away from coal.

Other Countries

CEZ Group also provides ESCO services in Italy, Romania, Austria, Israel, the Netherlands, France, Hungary, China, Malaysia, and the UK.

In Austria, Moser & Partner Ingenieurbüro GmbH and Syneco tec GmbH are active in planning and installing complex electrical systems. During 2022, Syneco tec GmbH expanded its activities to include the installation of rooftop photovoltaic systems. The acquisition of Wagner Consult GmbH (IWC) has contributed to completing the portfolio. IWC has been one of the leading engineering companies in the field of waste water treatment and energy efficiency solutions in Tyrol for almost 50 years.

The inewa group is based in South Tyrol in Italy and focuses on a wide range of energy services—from planning and consulting to downstream operations and maintenance. The group also specializes in the operation of its own biogas plants. The bioenergy portfolio was expanded with the acquisition of 100% of B.T.C. Soc. Agricola S.r.l. company and its biogas plant. Unfortunately, extreme drought had an impact on the biogas plants' results in 2022. Inewa also successfully completed an energy efficiency project for one of the Italian plants of Federal Mogul, a leading manufacturer in the automotive component sector.

CEZ Group provides ESCO services in Romania through High-Tech Clima S.A. In 2022, the company stabilized its operations with new projects and the development of new capabilities in the field of electrical installation work. The National Cathedral in Bucharest is the most significant project which started in Q4 2022 and has, or is expected to have, a positive impact on the company's result in 2022 and 2023, respectively. The ZOHD group operates in the Netherlands and provides services in the field of rooftop photovoltaic systems. In 2022, the company started to provide battery storage services while pilot projects were installed. In 2023, ZOHD expects growth in both PV and storage solutions. Due to the interconnection with other Elevion Group companies, international projects are also expected to grow, especially in Germany.

Outlook for 2023

Organic growth is expected in all countries.

Bulgaria

CEZ ESCO Bulgaria was active in Bulgaria, operating in the implementation of energy projects for end-use customers in the Bulgarian market. The company was divested in H1 2022.

Sales of Other Products and Services

Czechia

ČEZ Prodej also operates in the field of telecommunication services. With its basic product "Mobile from ČEZ", it is one of the largest virtual operators in Czechia with more than 135 thousand SIM cards. In 2022, it continued to improve its product portfolio, currently used by approximately 40,000 clients. Telco Pro Services provided telecommunication services for the needs of CEZ Group and the external market. Telco Infrastructure, s.r.o., is established to own and build the basic communications infrastructure to which CEZ Group's other companies supplying services to end-use customers will be connected.

Not only is new infrastructure being built, but acquisition opportunities in the area of internet access providers and fiber network owners are being exploited to create a major provider of quality internet connectivity achieving group synergies. In 2022, KABELOVÁ TELEVIZE CZ s.r.o., was acquired, primarily providing internet television services and internet connection services in Česká Třebová and in more than 20 other locations throughout Czechia.

Outlook for 2023

The intention is to significantly develop the offer of energy-saving technologies for customers who heat locally with natural gas or electricity. CEZ Group will also address the implementation process at its subsidiary TENAUR to continue to meet the demands of the year-on-year increase in the number of installations of the required quality.

The objectives include further development of the customer base of the virtual operator "Mobile from ČEZ". Telco Pro Services, including its subsidiaries, intends to take advantage of any new acquisition opportunities and continue to provide high quality internet connectivity to end-use customers. As part of the post-acquisition steps, further simplification of the organizational structure and merger of the acquired companies are envisaged. The construction of fiber-optic networks with end-use customer connectivity will continue.

We are preparing the distribution grid for the dynamic development of renewables

The rapid increase in energy prices on European markets, including Czechia, and concerns about its sufficiency have sparked consumer interest in owning their own electricity generation facilities. The most affordable option is a photovoltaic power plant installed on the roof. CEZ Group is not only a supplier of such ready-made power plants, but also an electricity distributor in most of the territory of Czechia, to whose grid the new generating facilities are connected. Therefore, we had to significantly adjust our procedures and capacities to cope with the influx of grid connection requests.

Changes in Revenues, Expenses, and Income

CEZ Group Net Income Breakdown (CZK Billions)

Net income (after-tax income) amounted to CZK 80.7 billion, which is a year-on-year increase of CZK 70.8 billion in 2022. The extreme increase in income mainly reflects the increase in realized prices of electricity generated as a result of the war conflict in Ukraine, restrictions on gas and coal supplies from Russia, and general uncertainty. These factors have led to a decrease in gas-fired generation in Europe and a significant increase in the cost of electricity generation from emissions-based sources in general, resulting in record increases in market prices for both electricity and gas in Europe. In addition, the highest ever nuclear generation volumes and record income from commodity trading on foreign markets contributed significantly to the increase in earnings. The year-on-year comparison was also materially impacted by the high provisioning of fixed assets in 2021. Operating revenues increased year-on-year by CZK 60.7 billion to CZK 288.5 billion, mainly due to higher revenues from the sale of electricity, heat, gas, and coal (CZK +48.2 billion)—especially revenues from the sale of electricity and gas. Sales of services and other revenues increased by CZK 8.0 billion. Other operating income increased by CZK 4.5 billion.

The result from commodity derivative trading increased by CZK 45.6 billion. The increase is mainly due to the revaluation of commodity trades, which serve to hedge the overall generation margin, and also due to record increase in revenue from speculative commodity trading, particularly on foreign markets.

Operating expenses reached CZK 227.7 billion in 2022, a year-on-year increase of CZK 20.5 billion. In particular, the cost of fuel and emission allowances increased (CZK -20.9 billion) and the cost of purchasing electricity, gas, and other energy increased (CZK -7.0 billion). Operating expenses also increased for material expenses (CZK -4.0 billion), personnel expenses (CZK -3.3 billion), service expenses (CZK -2.9 billion), and depreciation (CZK -1.1 billion). Allowances for fixed assets, including goodwill impairment, and allowances for trade and other receivables were lower year-on-year (CZK +17.7 billion), while other items of operating expenses also decreased (CZK +1.0 billion).

Other expenses and revenues increased net income by CZK 0.4 billion year-on-year, mainly due to higher interest income (CZK +3.4 billion) as a result of higher cash balances and increasing interest rates. In addition, the update of provisions related to the guarantees provided for Akcez loans (CZK +1.0 billion) had a positive effect. By contrast, exchange rate effects and the revaluation of financial derivatives had a negative effect (CZK -1.2 billion) mainly due to the revaluation of margin deposits on exchanges and with trading counterparties in 2022. Interest expense (CZK -0.8 billion) and interest on nuclear and other reserves (CZK -0.8 billion) increased. The year-on-year comparison was further impacted by interest on the late refund of the emission allowance tax in 2021 (CZK -1.5 billion). Other effects amounted to CZK +0.3 billion.

Income taxes increased by CZK 15.4 billion to CZK 18.9 billion as a result of higher income before taxes.

Cash Flows

Net effect of currency translation and allowances in cash

Investing activities

Financing activities

Operating activities

Net cash flow from operating activities decreased year-on-year by CZK 54.1 billion to CZK +5.1 billion. Income before tax adjusted for noncash transactions increased (CZK +200.7 billion), of which income before tax increased (CZK +86.2 billion) and adjustments to income for noncash transactions had a positive effect (CZK +114.5 billion), mainly due to the hedging of cash flows charged from equity to financial results (CZK +76.2 billion) and due to the revaluation of transactions with emission allowances to fair value (CZK +43.6 billion). The change in working capital (CZK -256.6 billion), due to the unprecedented increase and volatility in commodity prices, had a major highly negative impact. The balance of interest received and paid was positive (CZK +3.7 billion). Income taxes paid increased year-on-year (CZK -1.9 billion).

The year-on-year variation in working capital was mainly due to the change in the stock of receivables and payables from derivative transactions (CZK -189.6 billion), reflecting primarily the extreme increase in electricity prices and commodity price volatility. In addition, working capital was negatively affected by the change in the stock of emission allowances (CZK -73.8 billion). The balance of short-term debt securities and term deposits (CZK -11.2 billion) and the change in inventories of materials and fossil fuels (CZK -8.6 billion), mainly due to the acquisition of gas stocks, also had a negative impact. The change in the balance of trade receivables and payables was positive (CZK +28.5 billion) mainly due to margin deposits on the energy exchange and with commodity traders.

Net cash flow from investment activities of CZK -36.7 billion decreased by CZK 29.6 billion year-on-year. The change was due to lower income from the sale of subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates in 2022 (CZK -28.8 billion) mainly as a result of the sale of Romanian and Bulgarian assets in 2021. In addition, the acquisition of fixed assets (CZK -1.7 billion) and the change in restricted financial assets (CZK -1.1 billion) had a negative impact. On the other hand, expenditure on the acquisition of subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures (CZK +1.2 billion), and the balance of loans and loan repayments (CZK +0.4 billion) decreased. Higher income from the sale of fixed assets (CZK +0.5 billion) also had a positive effect.

Net cash flow from financial activities of CZK +42.7 billion increased year-on-year by CZK 77.5 billion. The increase was due to the change in the balance of drawdowns and repayments of loans and borrowings (CZK +76.9 billion) and lower dividends paid to the Company's shareholders (CZK +2.2 billion). On the other hand, the balance of purchases and sales of non-controlling interests (CZK -1.1 billion) was negatively affected by the sale of the non-controlling interest in ESCO Slovensko in 2021 and lower income from the sale of treasury shares (CZK -0.6 billion).

The effect of currency translation differences and valuation allowances on cash had a negative impact year-on-year (CZK -0.3 billion).

Structure of Assets, Equity, and Liabilities

Structure of CEZ Group Assets as at December 31 (CZK Billions)

The value of CEZ Group's consolidated assets, equity, and liabilities decreased by CZK 75.7 billion to CZK 1,107.4 billion in 2022.

Other noncurrent assets

Current assets

Noncurrent assets increased by CZK 77.8 billion to CZK 552.0 billion.

The net value of property, plant, and equipment increased by CZK 29.0 billion to CZK 398.0 billion. This comprises the gross value of property, plant, and equipment (CZK +47.3 billion) and corrections and valuation allowances (CZK -18.4 billion). The balance of investments in progress increased (CZK +4.1 billion) and the balance of nuclear fuel decreased (CZK -1.1 billion). Other noncurrent assets increased by CZK 45.8 billion to CZK 116.9 billion. This result is mainly due to an increase in deferred tax assets (CZK +39.7 billion). The increase was also due to long-term receivables from derivative transactions (CZK +5.5 billion), long-term securities invested by Inven Capital, SICAV, a.s. (CZK +1.3 billion), financial assets with restricted disposals (CZK +0.8 billion), long-term receivables including receivables from the sale of fixed assets (CZK +0.6 billion), and intangible fixed assets, net (CZK +0.6 billion). On the contrary, receivables from the sale of subsidiaries and associates (CZK -2.4 billion) and investments in associates and joint ventures (CZK -0.2 billion) decreased.

Current assets decreased by CZK 153.5 billion to CZK 555.4 billion. The year-on-year decrease was caused by a reduction in short-term receivables from derivative transactions, including options (CZK -229.9 billion), mainly due to temporary changes in the fair value of commodity trades as a result of high volatility in commodity prices. In contrast, trade receivables increased, net (CZK +29.9 billion), mainly due to margin deposits on the energy exchange and with commodity traders. In addition, the value of inventories of materials and fossil fuels increased (CZK +11.4 billion), mainly due to an increase in the value of gas inventories and the value of emission allowances (CZK +10.1 billion). Cash and cash equivalents (CZK +10.0 billion), short-term debt securities (CZK +9.3 billion), and short-term receivables from the sale of subsidiaries (CZK +2.5 billion) also increased year-on-year. Other current assets also increased (CZK +3.2 billion).

Structure of CEZ Group Equity and Liabilities as at December 31 (CZK Billions)

Equity increased by CZK 97.4 billion to CZK 260.3 billion. The increase was driven by income after taxes generated in 2022 (CZK +80.7 billion) and other comprehensive income (CZK +43.0 billion). Conversely, dividends awarded to shareholders (CZK -25.7 billion), acquisitions of noncontrolling interests including option (CZK -0.3 billion), and a change in accounting methodology (CZK -0.3 billion) had an opposite effect.

Long-term liabilities increased by CZK 78.5 billion to CZK 339.7 billion. The increase was mainly due to long-term debts (CZK +44.3 billion), long-term provisions, mainly nuclear (CZK +15.9 billion), and the provision for demolition and dismantling of coal-fired power plants after their decommissioning (CZK +12.3 billion). The increase was further boosted by long-term liabilities from derivative transactions (CZK +3.1 billion), other long-term provisions (CZK +0.8 billion), and deferred tax liability (CZK +0.8 billion). Other noncurrent liabilities also increased (CZK +1.4 billion).

Current liabilities decreased by CZK 251.7 billion to CZK 507.4 billion. The year-on-year drop was caused by a decrease in short-term derivative liabilities (CZK -308.8 billion), mainly due to temporary changes in the fair value of commodity trades as a result of high volatility in commodity prices. Furthermore, the short-term part of long-term debt (CZK -7.8 billion) and trade payables (CZK -1.2 billion) decreased. In contrast, short-term bank loans (CZK +27.7 billion), income tax liabilities (CZK +14.3 billion), and short-term provisions (CZK +12.6 billion) increased, especially the provision for greenhouse gas emissions and certificates. Other current liabilities (CZK +9.1 billion) increased mainly due to higher advance payments received for electricity. Other current liabilities also increased (CZK +2.6 billion).

Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income, net of tax, increased by CZK 169.0 billion to CZK 123.7 billion. Net income (CZK +70.8 billion) and other comprehensive income (CZK +98.2 billion) increased year-on-year.

The increase in other comprehensive income was mainly driven by the derecognition of cash flow hedges to the income statement and assets (CZK +76.7 billion) and deferred tax charged to comprehensive income (CZK +24.2 billion). Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments (CZK +3.6 billion), revaluation of debt and equity instruments (CZK +1.4 billion), and foreign exchange translation differences on subsidiaries, associates, joint ventures, and other companies (CZK +0.7 billion) also had a positive impact on the comprehensive income. There was a negative impact from the derecognition of exchange differences on translation related to assets sold in 2021 (CZK -8.3 billion).

Note: The year-on-year comparison is affected by the sale of Romanian assets as at March 31, 2021, and Bulgarian assets as at July 27, 2021.

The GENERATION segment's net income increased by CZK 55.1 billion year-on-year. In Czechia, the segment's net income increased year-on-year by CZK 54.9 billion, which was due to higher operating profit before depreciation, amortization, impairments, and sale of assets (EBITDA; CZK +71.8 billion). The extreme increase in income reflects mainly the increase in the realized prices of generated electricity, the highest ever volume of nuclear generation, and record income from commodity trading on foreign markets. Conversely, foreign exchange effects and the revaluation of financial derivatives (CZK -2.6 billion), interest from unauthorized actions by the tax authorities related to the refund of the overpayment of the donation tax on emission allowances received in 2021 (CZK -1.5 billion), and, in particular, higher income taxes (CZK -12.8 billion) were negative. In Poland, the segment's net income increased by CZK 0.3 billion due to lower provisions for fixed assets (CZK +1.0 billion) and a decrease in EBITDA (CZK -0.5 billion). In Romania, the segment's net income decreased by CZK 0.1 billion due to the sale of assets in 2021. The MINING segment's net income increased by CZK 14.4 billion. This was due to the creation of high provisions for fixed assets in 2021 and their partial release in 2022 following improved market conditions for mining (CZK +14.5 billion). Other effects almost offset each other, with higher EBITDA (CZK +1.7 billion) and lower depreciation and amortization (CZK +0.4 billion) having a positive effect, while income taxes increased (CZK -2.5 billion).

The net income of the DISTRIBUTION segment increased by CZK 1.2 billion year-on-year, mainly due to the year-on-year increase in Turkey (CZK +1.4 billion), primarily driven by the update of provisions related to the Akcez loan guarantee. Earnings also increased in Romania (CZK +0.1 billion), but decreased year-on-year in Czechia (CZK -0.2 billion) and Bulgaria (CZK -0.2 billion), here due to the sale of assets in 2021.

Net income of the SALES segment decreased by CZK 1.4 billion, mainly in Czechia (CZK -1.2 billion) due to the extreme increase in commodity purchase prices and also in Romania and Bulgaria (CZK -0.3 billion) due to the sale of assets in 2021. In Germany, segment net income increased by CZK 0.2 billion, mainly due to higher EBITDA.

Concerning other indicators of individual segments stated in the table, comments are added below on the year-on-year change in EBITDA, which is the most often used indicator of operating performance of companies traded in global exchanges and is monitored by international analysts, creditors, investors, and shareholders.

In the largest segment—GENERATION—the indicator increased by CZK 70.3 billion to CZK 103.5 billion. It increased mainly in Czechia (CZK +71.8 billion), mainly due to the increase in gross margin of generation as a result of a significant increase in the realized prices of electricity and the purchase prices of emission allowances and gas (CZK 46.5 billion), higher income from commodity trading, including the use of the LNG terminal (CZK +20.1 billion), and higher revenues from the sale of support services (CZK +4.4 billion). On the other hand, EBITDA decreased in Poland (CZK -0.5 billion), mainly due to higher expenses for emission allowances and fuel, and in Romania (CZK -0.6 billion) due to the sale of assets as at March 31, 2021.

In the MINING segment, the indicator reached the level of CZK 6.2 billion, i.e., it increased by CZK 1.7 billion year-on-year. The main reasons were higher revenues from external customers (CZK +1.8 billion), mainly due to higher coal deliveries, and higher revenues from CEZ Group (CZK +1.1 billion), mainly due to higher sales prices. On the other hand, fixed operating expenses increased (CZK -1.1 billion) mainly due to higher energy expenses.

In the DISTRIBUTION segment, the indicator decreased by CZK 1.8 billion to CZK 18.1 billion. In Czechia, it decreased (CZK -0.1 billion) due to lower gross margin from electricity distribution (CZK -0.4 billion) related to a decrease in distributed volume, mainly at the low voltage level, and higher fixed operating expenses (CZK -0.2 billion). In contrast, income was higher from power supply and connection (CZK +0.2 billion) and contractual penalties (CZK +0.2 billion). The indicator also decreased in Romania (CZK -0.5 billion) due to the sale of assets as at March 31, 2021, and in Bulgaria (CZK -1.1 billion) due to the sale of assets as at July 27, 2021. The SALES segment showed EBITDA of CZK 4.4 billion, i.e., CZK 1.4 billion less year-on-year. In Czechia, the indicator was lower by CZK 1.2 billion mainly due to a significant increase in the purchase prices of natural gas and electricity. There was a decrease in the retail company ČEZ Prodej (CZK -0.7 billion) and in other Czech companies (total CZK -0.5 billion). In Germany, the indicator increased (CZK +0.3 billion) due to organic and acquisitive growth of ESCOs. In Romania, the indicator decreased (CZK -0.1 billion) due to the sale of assets as at March 31, 2021, and similarly in Bulgaria (CZK -0.3 billion) due to the sale of assets as at July 27, 2021.

Solvency in 2022

Solvency of CEZ Group was good in 2022 and CEZ Group companies did not report any problems in paying their liabilities. As a result of extreme volatility on commodity markets, virtually throughout the entire year 2022, CEZ Group faced extreme hedging requirements for closed commodity transactions due to the difference between the contracted and high current market price of commodities (margining). ČEZ was forced to send as much as hundreds of millions of EUR per day to the stock exchanges, similar to all major producers in Europe. With the extreme fluctuation in electricity prices in August, ČEZ's margin deposits increased to CZK 195 billion. Therefore, compared to the past, CEZ Group held a significantly higher amount of liquid assets, i.e., short-term deposits, repos, or investments in short-term government debt securities.

To ensure the necessary liquidity, CEZ Group took a number of comprehensive measures during the year to ensure sufficient cash. It optimized its trading positions (mainly related to hedging future electricity generation) in commodity markets to reduce sensitivity to price changes. Furthermore, CEZ Group increased its available committed credit facilities by approximately 50%, arranged the possibility of partial substitution of margin deposits by bank guarantees, drew EUR 400 million from the loan concluded with the EIB at the end of 2021, and in July concluded a EUR 3 billion loan agreement with the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic, which was used in full during the extreme price fluctuation in August.

In April, CEZ Group took advantage of the first period of market calming after the Russian invasion of Ukraine and issued its first sustainability-linked bond issue in the amount of EUR 600 million with a maturity of 5 years. Due to the timing and the link to sustainability, the issue was met with strong investor interest. At the end of the year and in January and February 2023, it issued Schuldscheindarlehen (a loan linked to a promissory note placed among private investors governed by German law) with a total volume of EUR 500 million.

In December, CEZ Group signed a EUR 790 million loan agreement with the EIB, mainly to finance the development of the distribution grid in Czechia; the loan is expected to be drawn down during 2023.

The average maturity of all ČEZ's debts as at December 31, 2022, was more than 4 years; after deducting the short-term loan from the state, the average maturity was more than 6 years. During 2022, CZK 25.4 billion was paid in dividends for 2021 and another CZK 0.2 billion was paid in dividends for previous years. CEZ Group's shareholders' meeting set the dividend payment date later than in previous years (as at November 1, 2022), which positively affected CEZ Group's available liquidity in the critical period of August–September.

Economic and Financial Outlook for 2023

As at March 21, 2023, CEZ Group expected to achieve consolidated EBITDA of CZK 105 to 125 billion and consolidated net income adjusted for extraordinary effects for the full year 2023 of CZK 30 to 40 billion. Compared to 2022, this represents a decrease in EBITDA of CZK 7 to 27 billion and a decrease in net income adjusted for extraordinary effects of CZK 38 to 48 billion.

The main positive year-on-year impact is a higher gross margin on generation due to a significant increase in realized electricity prices and the purchase price of emission allowances and gas (CZK +5 to +15 billion). This increase will be almost eliminated by higher state levies on excess revenues from generation in Czechia (CZK -8 to -12 billion). In addition, the unprecedented record income from commodity trading in 2022 (CZK -20 billion) and the windfall income tax in Czechia introduced as at January 1, 2023 (CZK -20 to -25 billion), will have a negative impact on the year-on-year comparison.

To give an idea of the expected economic situation of CEZ Group in 2023, the main reasons for the year-on-year change in operating results in individual business segments are listed below.

The GENERATION segment is expected to decrease by CZK 12 to 34 billion year-on-year. In the nuclear generation area (CZK -6 to +4 billion), the main positive factors are higher realized electricity prices including hedging and the negative factors are higher levy on excess generation revenues, lower availability of nuclear facilities, and higher fixed operating expenses. In the area of renewable generation (CZK -2 to 0 billion), lower revenues from ancillary services are expected and, on the contrary, higher realized prices of electricity including hedging are positive. In the area of generation from emission sources (CZK -6 to -1 billion), the main negative effects are higher acquisition expenses for emission allowances and gas, as well as increase in fixed operating expenses. Conversely, higher revenues are expected from the sale of electricity including hedging and from the sale of heat. In trading (CZK -20 to -15 billion), the expected decrease is mainly due to the unprecedented record income from commodity trading in 2022, and the year-on-year development will also be affected by the uncertain level of trading income in 2023 and the revaluation of derivatives.

The MINING segment is estimated to increase by CZK 3–5 billion year-on-year. Higher coal revenues, mainly due to higher realization prices, have a positive effect, while higher fixed operating expenses, especially energy costs, have a negative effect. In the DISTRIBUTION segment, the year-on-year change is estimated to be in the range of CZK -2 to 0 billion, negatively affected by higher fixed operating expenses and the impact of adjustment factors, positively affected by higher allowed revenues. In the SALES segment, the year-on-year change is estimated to be in the range of CZK -1 to +1 billion, with positive effects from acquisitions and organic growth in energy services. Conversely, higher electricity and gas acquisition expenses for customers are having an impact.

Selected risks and forecasting opportunities include: availability of generating facilities, uncertain commodity trading income and revaluation of derivatives and the realized price of electricity generated.

Investments in the fixed assets of CEZ Group in 2023 are expected to amount to CZK 51 billion, mostly planned to be invested in generation and distribution assets in Czechia.

The net income of the parent company ČEZ, a. s., is estimated at CZK 23 to 27 billion in 2023; the year-on-year decrease is mainly due to the newly introduced windfall income tax of 60%.

Expected Investments in Fixed Assets in 2023–2027

The five-year investment plan is fully aligned with our strategic objectives "VISION 2030—Clean Energy of Tomorrow". Its implementation will enable us to achieve our goal of reducing our emissions intensity to 0.26 t CO2e/MWh and building 1.5 GW of new renewable sources by 2025.

Approximately 70% of investments in the GENERATION segment will be directed towards emission-free power plants between 2023 and 2027. Investments in new renewable sources in 2023–2027 are estimated to reach approximately CZK 90 billion, while investments in nuclear power plants will amount to CZK 74 billion. Investments in coal-fired power plants will be directed only towards necessary maintenance.

Cumulative investments in distribution of CZK 79 billion will enable new renewables to be connected and support our digitization objectives.

Changes in Revenues, Expenses, and Income

Net Income Breakdown of ČEZ, a. s. (CZK Billions)

Sales of electricity, heat, and gas

Sales of services and other revenues

Other operating income

The net income (income after tax) of ČEZ, a. s., amounted to CZK 63.8 billion, a year-on-year increase of CZK 59.4 billion. Operating revenues amounted to CZK 200.2 billion. The year-on-year increase was CZK 78.2 billion, including revenues from the sale of electricity, heat, and gas (CZK +68.7 billion), revenues from the sale of services and other revenues (CZK +5.1 billion), and other operating revenues (CZK +4.3 billion). Gains and losses on commodity derivative transactions contributed to the year-on-year increase in income by CZK 48.7 billion. The increase in derivative income is mainly due to the revaluation of commodity trades, which serve to hedge the overall generation margin, and also due to a record increase in revenue from speculative commodity trading, particularly on foreign markets.

Operating expenses increased by CZK 61.2 billion year-on-year to CZK 169.1 billion, mainly due to higher expenses for the purchase of electricity, gas, and other energy (CZK -38.5 billion), higher costs for fuel and emission allowances (CZK -17.3 billion), and personnel expenses (CZK -2.3 billion). Other items of operating expenses also increased (CZK -3.0 billion).

Other income and expenses had a positive year-on-year impact on net income (CZK +6.2 billion). This result was mainly due to lower impairments of financial assets (CZK +12.3 billion). In addition, interest income was higher (CZK +3.5 billion) due to higher cash balances and interest rates. Conversely, exchange rate differences, including revaluation of financial derivatives and sales of securities, had a negative effect (CZK -2.7 billion), mainly due to the revaluation of margin deposits on exchanges and with trading counterparties in 2022. Interest expense (CZK -2.5 billion) increased due to higher loan volumes. Interest on provisions (CZK -0.6 billion) also increased. The year-on-year income comparison was further impacted by interest on the delayed refund of the emission allowance tax in 2021 (CZK -1.5 billion) and the sale of Romanian and Bulgarian assets in 2021 (CZK -2.1 billion). Other effects amounted to CZK -0.2 billion.

Income tax increased by CZK 12.5 billion year-on-year to CZK 13.9 billion.

Cash Flows

ČEZ, a. s., Cash Flows (CZK Billions)

Operating activities

Net cash flow from operating activities of CZK -28.7 billion decreased by CZK 62.1 billion year-on-year. Income before tax adjusted for noncash operations was higher (CZK +198.1 billion). However, the change in working capital (CZK -259.4 billion) due to unprecedented increase and volatility in commodity prices had a highly negative impact. The balance of interest received and paid was positive (CZK +2.1 billion). Income tax paid increased year-on-year (CZK -2.7 billion) and dividends received decreased (CZK -0.2 billion). The increase in income before tax adjusted for noncash operations was driven by both the increase in income before tax (CZK +72.0 billion) and the adjustment of income for noncash operations (CZK +126.2 billion). Their highly positive impact was mainly due to cash flow hedges derecognized from equity to the income statement (CZK +76.4 billion) and the revaluation of emission allowance transactions to fair value (CZK +43.8 billion).

Changes in working capital were significantly affected mainly by the change in the balance of receivables and payables from derivative transactions (CZK -190.7 billion), reflecting mainly the extreme increase in electricity prices and commodity price volatility. Furthermore, working capital was negatively affected by the change in the stock of emission allowances (CZK -72.5 billion), the balance of short-term debt securities and term deposits (CZK -11.3 billion), and the change in the stock of materials and fossil fuel (CZK -3.0 billion), mainly due to the acquisition of gas stocks. In contrast, the change in trade receivables and payables (CZK +20.4 billion) was positive, mainly due to margin deposits on the energy exchange and with commodity traders. Other items had a negative impact on working capital (CZK -2.3 billion).

Net cash flow from investment activities decreased by CZK 40.2 billion year-on-year to CZK -18.3 billion. The most significant impact was lower income from the sale of subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates (CZK -35.3 billion), mainly due to the sale of Romanian and Bulgarian assets in 2021. Loans granted (CZK -6.1 billion) and the change in the stock of restricted financial assets (CZK -0.2 billion) also had a negative effect. On the other hand, expenditure on the acquisition of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures (CZK +0.9 billion) or on the acquisition of fixed assets (CZK +0.3 billion) decreased, while income from the sale of fixed assets increased (CZK +0.3 billion).

Net cash flow from financial activities of CZK +60.1 billion increased year-on-year by CZK 95.2 billion. The change in the balance of drawing and repaying external loans and borrowings was positive (CZK +75.8 billion), as was the change in the balance of group cash pooling liabilities (CZK +17.8 billion) and lower dividends paid to the Company's shareholders (CZK +2.2 billion). Conversely, the balance of purchases and sales of treasury shares was negative (CZK -0.6 billion).

Exchange rate differences and allowances affecting cash had a negative impact year-on-year (CZK -0.5 billion).

Structure of Assets, Equity, and Liabilities

The value of assets, equity, and liabilities decreased by CZK 81.9 billion year-on-year to CZK 1,029.0 billion. Noncurrent assets increased by CZK 65.6 billion to CZK 475.2 billion.

The net value of property, plant, and equipment increased by CZK 13.3 billion, reaching CZK +227.5 billion. The gross value of property, plant, and equipment (CZK +25.4 billion) and corrections and valuation allowances (CZK -12.2 billion) increased. The stock of investments in progress increased (CZK +2.0 billion) and, conversely, the stock of nuclear fuel decreased (CZK -1.1 billion). Other noncurrent assets increased by CZK 51.5 billion to CZK 222.4 billion. The increase was mainly due to an increase in deferred tax assets (CZK +41.0 billion), as well as an increase in receivables from derivative transactions (CZK +5.5 billion), long-term loans and long-term receivables mainly from Group companies (CZK +3.3 billion), equity securities in companies with a decisive and significant influence (CZK +2.3 billion), and long-term equity securities (CZK +1.2 billion). By contrast, long-term receivables from the sale of subsidiaries decreased (CZK -2.4 billion). Other items also increased (CZK +0.6 billion).

Current assets decreased by CZK 147.5 billion to CZK 553.8 billion. The year-on-year decrease was caused by a reduction in short-term receivables from derivative transactions, including options (CZK -222.0 billion), mainly due to temporary changes in the fair value of commodity trades as a result of high volatility in commodity prices. In contrast, trade receivables increased, net (CZK +33.7 billion), mainly due to margin deposits on the energy exchange and with commodity traders. The values of cash and cash equivalents (CZK +12.2 billion), short-term debt securities (CZK +9.3 billion), and emission allowances (CZK +7.0 billion) increased. The value of inventories of materials and fossil fuel also increased (CZK +5.7 billion), especially gas in storage, as well as short-term receivables from the sale of subsidiaries (CZK +2.5 billion). The other items under noncurrent assets increased (CZK +4.1 billion).

Equity increased by CZK 82.0 billion to CZK 198.4 billion. The increase was driven by income after taxes generated in 2022 (CZK +63.8 billion) and other comprehensive income (CZK +43.9 billion). Dividends awarded to shareholders (CZK -25.7 billion) had the opposite effect.

Long-term liabilities increased by CZK 72.4 billion to CZK 293.5 billion. The main contributors to the increase were long-term bank loans and financial assistance (CZK +35.7 billion), bonds issued (CZK +7.8 billion), and long-term provisions (CZK +24.4 billion), mainly nuclear provisions and provisions for demolition and dismantling of coal-fired power plants after their decommissioning. Long-term liabilities from derivative transactions (CZK +3.6 billion) also contributed to the increase in liabilities. Other items also increased (CZK +0.9 billion).

Current liabilities decreased by CZK 236.3 billion to CZK 537.1 billion. The year-on-year decrease was due to a decrease in short-term liabilities from derivative transactions, including options (CZK -301.9 billion), mainly as a result of temporary changes in the fair value of commodity transactions due to high volatility in commodity prices. By contrast, short-term loans, including the short-term portion of long-term debt (CZK +20.9 billion), liabilities from group cash pooling (CZK +16.4 billion), income tax liabilities (CZK +13.4 billion), and short-term provisions (CZK +10.4 billion), mainly provisions for greenhouse gas emissions, as well as taxes and charges other than income taxes (CZK +2.4 billion), contributed to the increase. Other current liabilities also increased (CZK +2.1 billion).

Treasury Shares

To cover the entitlements arising from the Company's stock option plan (terminated on December 31, 2019; however, the rights to exercise calls on option allocations granted until the end of 2019 remained unchanged), 1,258,349 treasury shares, corresponding to 0.23% of the stated capital, were held in the asset account of ČEZ, a. s., in the Central Securities Depository as of January 1, 2022. ČEZ used 78,873 shares to satisfy the claims of beneficiaries under the stock option plan in 2022. The average call price at which the shares were sold to beneficiaries amounted to CZK 528 per share. The total amount received for the transfer of the shares to the beneficiaries was CZK 42 million (including interest).

As at December 31, 2022, the above-mentioned asset account contained 1,179,512 treasury shares, that is, 0.22% of the stated capital.

Comprehensive Income

Net comprehensive income increased by CZK 165.1 billion to CZK 107.7 billion year-on-year. Net income after tax (CZK +59.4 billion) and other comprehensive income (CZK +105.7 billion) increased. Other comprehensive income was affected by the derecognition of cash flow hedges to the income statement and to assets (CZK +76.8 billion). It was also positively affected by the change in deferred tax charged to equity (CZK +24.2 billion), the change in the fair value of cash flow hedges (CZK +3.3 billion) and the change in the fair value of debt securities and equity instruments (CZK +1.4 billion).

ČEZ, a. s., Electricity Generation

In 2022, ČEZ generated 48.0 TWh of electricity, by 1.3 TWh less year-on-year. 12.6 TWh of this was generated from coal, a year-on-year decrease of 0.4 TWh. The Ledvice 4 power plant generation was by 0.9 TWh lower year-on-year (due to longer outages in 2022). Conversely, year-on-year generation was higher at Trmice heating plant by 0.1 TWh (due to higher market electricity prices) and Tušimice power plant by 0.1 TWh, Ledvice 3 by 0.1 TWh, and Prunéřov by 0.1 TWh (due to shorter outages in 2022). Nuclear power plants generated a total of 31.0 TWh of electricity in 2022, an increase of 0.3 TWh year-on-year. The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant generated 16.3 TWh of this, a year-on-year increase of 0.4 GWh (due to an increase in achievable capacity, fewer outages in 2022, and improved operations in 2022). The Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant generated 14.7 TWh, a year-on-year decrease of 0.1 TWh (mainly due to a fault at Unit 2 in Q4 2022).

The Počerady CCGT plant generated 2.1 TWh, a year-on-year decrease of 0.7 TWh due to worse market price conditions for operation. Electricity generation at hydroelectric power plants reached the level of 1.9 TWh, 0.4 TWh less year-on-year due to worse climatic conditions in 2022. 0.4 TWh was generated from biomass, i.e., by 0.1 TWh less than in 2021.

Business Impact of the Conflict in Ukraine

The impact of the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine and the related sanctions and measures in Europe and worldwide on CEZ Group's business is significant, as it has a major impact on the wholesale electricity and natural gas markets, supply relationships, payments, macroeconomic developments, government regulatory measures, and, in particular, the increase of the inflation rate in Europe. Risks to the forecast of future performance and, in general, sources of risks and opportunities for CEZ Group's activities include:

  • 1) Significant and unpredictable price movements in the wholesale electricity market, in both directions. The direct consequence of this is an increased liquidity risk for ČEZ as a seller of generated electricity, which was forced to provide very high deposits (margin deposits) on exchanges and to trading counterparties in the period of extremely high prices due to continuous pre-sales of expected generation.
  • 2) Restriction or stoppage of natural gas transported by pipelines from Russia to Europe. The restriction of supplies from Russia affects ČEZ mainly through its impact on the electricity market, as CEZ Group does not take any gas from Russian entities 14). Natural gas supplies transported by pipelines from Russia have been replaced by LNG supplies by sea transport and cost-saving measures have been taken at the consumption level. The insufficient capacities of European LNG terminals have been and are being continuously expanded, thus gradually reducing the risk of dependence on Russian supplies.
  • 3) Possibility of unpredictable actions of foreign states in relation to contracted capacities, stored reserves, and transport routes of natural gas from abroad to Czechia.
  • 4) Restrictions on economic development in Europe 15) and the impact on policy changes consisting in higher regulation or further specific taxation of selected business areas. Difficulties in securing and ensuring availability of maintenance of production facilities and nuclear fuel supplies due to the impact of sanctions and measures restricting the supply of services and materials from selected countries and regions.

14) In 2022, natural gas supplies to CEZ Group from Russian entities were made only on the basis of commercial contracts concluded before the imposition of sanctions, in particular on the basis of contracts from 2021. The share of physical gas supplies from Russian entities was less than 1%. ČEZ has no contracts with Russian entities for supplies in 2023 or subsequent years, it purchases and imports natural gas exclusively from partners outside the Russian Federation.

15) European companies have been suffering long-term losses in market value globally. According to an EY survey, only 15 European companies are among the 100 most valuable, compared to 46 companies before the financial crisis in 2007. [Quoted January 19, 2023]. Available at: www.ey.com/en\_ch/ news/2022-press-releases/12/us-companies-are-dominating-stockexchanges-globally.

  • 5) The risk of declining customer payment morale due to increasing commodity prices, despite the existence of price caps on electricity and natural gas for end-use customers, and generally high inflation, which also reflects the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine.
  • 6) The risk of an escalation of the military conflict from Ukraine to other countries in Europe, and the associated increase in uncertainty and restrictions in the markets, including the imposition of further sanctions and measures by EU countries or Russia, which may further restrict trade, commodity supplies, transport routes, and cross-border payments.

Estimating the financial impact to date of these risks of the entire conflict in Ukraine is difficult to quantify given other key factors acting simultaneously on the market (in particular the impact of inflation, the impact of the European Green Deal policy initiative, political and economic developments in Europe and Czechia) and the uncertainty that now prevails regarding energy prices and the anticipated responses of the EU and nation states.

Due to the stable availability of CEZ Group's generating facilities and the limited impact of rising energy commodity prices on fuel costs, CEZ Group achieved record income in 2022, mainly due to the increase in realized prices of generated electricity and income from commodity trading in an extremely volatile market.

However, a necessary condition for managing the impact of the conflict and the subsequent energy crisis on CEZ Group's business was to take a number of measures to limit the above-mentioned negative effects of the conflict. The biggest challenge was securing additional liquidity to pay the deposits (margin deposits) on exchanges related to securing generation deals, as well as securing nuclear fuel supplies for 2022 and beyond and the need to replace Russian suppliers for maintenance and development of generation assets. The impact on the business in the medium term cannot be objectively assessed given the above risks.

We focus on the technological development of energy storage

An important goal for future energy development is to find a way of storing energy that would make a major contribution to dealing with fluctuations in consumption and generation from renewables. One way to do this is to use energy storage in large-capacity batteries and draw on it when electricity demand exceeds supply. Newly built battery factories, so-called gigafactories, could help with this.

4. CEZ Group Activities —Other Areas Safety and Security

Safety

Safety is CEZ Group's topmost priority. The principles of managing and ensuring environmental safety and protection are defined in the Environmental Safety and Protection Policy, which is linked to CEZ Group's strategic priorities. CEZ Group implements the principle of continuous improvement within its security management system. It is a linked evaluation system with outputs implemented to improve performance. Setting up and maintaining a systematic approach to safety management contributes to meeting the requirements of legal regulations and other requirements based on international ISO standards for management systems in the areas of fire protection, emergency preparedness, occupational health and safety, and environmental protection. In line with the expectations of stakeholders and in connection with the announced concern for CEZ Group's Unified Management System, management systems are being introduced in accordance with the Safe Enterprise program or the ČSN ISO 45001 standard to support safety management in companies that are certified by accredited certification bodies or verified by independent bodies. The certification of individual companies within CEZ Group supports transparency and communication toward the general public and other stakeholders. Management systems are a tool for systematically reducing the risks of environmental disasters and serious work-related injuries.

Safety of Operated Nuclear Power Plants

ČEZ's nuclear power plants were operated in compliance with applicable nuclear energy legislation in 2022, fulfilling the conditions of all valid licenses. The operation of both nuclear power plants was assured in compliance with all government COVID-19 pandemic measures.

In April, the Safety Improvement Plans for Nuclear Power Plants were evaluated and updated in connection with the Nuclear Activities Safety Policy.

In May, both sites were inspected for seismic resistance. Inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) examined both the existing generating units and the plans for the construction of additional nuclear facilities, including small modular reactors, and confirmed the suitability and resilience of both sites to strong earthquakes, and their very low probability.

Specialists from both plants participated in a WANO support mission (from the WANO Atlantic, Moscow, and London centers) focused on operational experience and on improving the process of event—investigation and in particular the formulation of effective corrective measures.

In both nuclear power plants, the system of ČEZ, a. s., welding area set up according to international ISO standards was checked by TÜV NORD auditors. ČEZ, a. s., first obtained this certification of the quality assurance system for the special welding process area four years ago. It is one of the important conditions for ensuring work in the demanding environment of nuclear power plants.

In both plants, emergency drills were carried out as planned, i.e. including a pilot drill of a real-time scenario at the Temelín NPP and a full shelter drill at the Dukovany NPP. In the context of launching the preparations for the WANO Corporate Peer Review 2023 (WCPR), seminars to prepare managers were held in October. Participants received information on the preparation process, key milestones, and experiences from WANO Corporate Missions to date. The WANO performance objectives and criteria were recalled and possible questions and expectations of the WANO expert team were discussed.

Note: Status as at February 27, 2023.

Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant

In early 2022, the Unit 2 refuelling outage continued, followed by Unit 1 and Unit 4 outages as scheduled. A new and important activity of these outages is the cleaning of the steam generator heat transfer surfaces, which provides a 2–3% increase in the margin for potential blanking of the steam generator tubes compared to the existing situation, which has a significant impact on the life of the plant and potential future operation at increased power. The extended Unit 3 refueling outage included an inspection of the reactor pressure vessel and overhaul of the two main circulation pumps. In October, an unscheduled outage of Unit 2 occurred due to a malfunctioning seal on the main shut-off valve on the cold branch of Loop 2 of the primary circuit.

Modifications have been made to the cooling towers to reduce the temperature of the circulating cooling water and therefore increase the output of the turbine generator and increase electricity generation.

In September, a WANO support mission on the Implementation, Use, and Training of Human Error Prevention Tools in Block Supervision was held. Its purpose was to exchange experiences in the field of human error prevention tools, especially in the area of operational management staff and related professions.

Temelín Nuclear Power Plant

From January 10 to February 14, due to the pandemic situation and protection against the COVID-19 omicron variant, only necessary maintenance interventions, key operational checks and necessary investments were carried out, everything else was postponed.

The two-year tender for the nuclear fuel assemblies supplier for the Temelín NPP has ended. For the sake of diversification, two suppliers were selected so that CEZ Group could reliably ensure a continuous supply of fuel assemblies for the Temelín NPP reactors in the future and thus minimize the risks of a possible supply failure. Subsequently, a contract was concluded with Westinghouse and Framatome. Deliveries of the sets for more than 10 years will start in 2024.

At the beginning of June, the SÚJB granted permission to continue operating Unit 2 indefinitely.

During the Unit 1 outage, the fuel was replaced according to schedule.

An unscheduled outage of Unit 2 took place at the end of June and beginning of July. The limiting system reduced the unit's output below 40% Nnom. The cause was the operation of the Buchholz relay of the 2BT1 transformer. As part of the already planned Unit 2 refueling outage (7–9/2022), safety systems and turbine checks were also performed.

In November, Temelín NPP hosted the international WANO working group, covering the issue of performance evaluation of operating nuclear power plants. The two-day working meeting was attended by representatives from WANO regional centers (London, Paris, Moscow, Tokyo, Atlanta) as well as representatives of nuclear companies from Canada, Brazil, Japan, France, Spain, and other countries. During the meeting, the results of the performance of the power plants within each regional center were presented. Among the topics discussed were, in particular, the readiness to update the WANO Index, which allows for performance comparisons between individual operating units worldwide, and the status of the preparation of the newly introduced set of common WANO indicators under the so-called enhanced performance monitoring of nuclear power plants.

Supplier Competence (Audit) and Assessment

Suppliers of safety-relevant items and services are subject to initial and recurrent audits carried out by ČEZ as a license holder pursuant to Section 9 of Act No. 263/2016 Coll., Atomic Energy Act. Supplier audits examine the extent to which suppliers comply with applicable requirements in nuclear legislation. The quality of a supplier's work is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis according to a specified assessment system and predefined parameters and criteria. There were 90 supplier audits conducted in 2022, including 36 audits conducted jointly with CEZ Group companies' principal contractors, and 15 cases of special quality supervision. As part of a unified supplier assessment system for supplies related to safety-relevant items, 159 companies were assessed.

Security

sníži

CEZ Group's security focuses on eliminating or reducing risks associated with threats that can be carried, in particular, by a human (thief, embezzler, saboteur, extremist, terrorist, hacker, etc.).

The top document of the CEZ Group's security management system is the CEZ Group Security Policy, which, among other things, defines the vision, objectives, and scope of the CEZ Group's security management system in accordance with the requirements of regulations, laws, and international standards and recommendations, in particular Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Atomic Energy Act, laws on cyber security, protection of classified information, and security clearance, ISO 27000, ISO 22301, and IAEA recommendations.

Physical Protection

It provides a specified level of protection of facilities, nuclear materials and nuclear installations, persons, and property adequate to the risks arising from the current security situation and the defined design basis threat to nuclear materials and nuclear installations in Czechia.

In 2022, no safety-significant deviations from the normal state of physical security were registered within CEZ Group, including both nuclear power plants. In both nuclear power plants, in accordance with the requirements of the State Office for Nuclear Safety, the implementation of phase II of the technical measures to secure the designated vital areas was successfully completed.

In cooperation with the Czech Armed Forces, the SAFEGUARD Dukovany exercise took place in November 2022, which comprehensively tested the readiness of the Czech Armed Forces, the Czech Police, and ČEZ, a. s., to ensure the external protection of the Dukovany power plant.

Information and Cyber Security

Selected CEZ Group companies are administrators of critical information infrastructure and basic service information systems (mainly power and heat generation plants) within the meaning of Act No. 181/2014 Coll., on cyber security. In 2022, the CEZ Group companies responded immediately to three cyber threat warnings issued by the National Cyber and Information Security Agency (NÚKIB) and continuously addressed security events and incidents on the information assets they manage.

In the autumn of 2022, ČEZ underwent a surveillance audit of its ISMS according to ISO/IEC 27001 and also an inspection by the NÚKIB at the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant according to Act No. 181/2014 Coll., on cyber security, with the participation of a representative of the SÚJB. The audit and inspection results provided important feedback for continuous improvement of the information and cyber security management system at CEZ Group.

In 2022, CEZ Group implemented preparatory steps in response to the expected revision of Directive (EU) 2016/1148 of the European Parliament and of the Council on measures to ensure a high common level of network and information systems security in the Union (NIS)—the so-called NIS2.

Business Continuity Management and Crisis Management

The year 2022 was focused on improving the competence of the team and the effectiveness of the business continuity management system outputs.

In 2022, the crisis management area was ensured in accordance with legislative requirements and internal management documentation.

Environment

Reducing the environmental impact of the energy sector, respecting global climate goals, supporting and protecting biodiversity, and meeting all emission and environmental requirements set by legislation and regulatory authorities are among CEZ Group's long-term strategic goals. Measuring and evaluating relevant environmental impacts is an integral part of our operational processes.

Air Protection

The production of electricity and heat from fossil fuels, as well as their extraction, is associated with emissions of pollutants into the air, despite the implementation of anti-dust measures and flue gas cleaning. Dust particles are emitted during the extraction and processing of brown coal. The combustion of fossil fuels results, in particular, in emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. Emission reduction equipment is installed at combustion facilities operated by CEZ Group and its efficiency is continually improved as best available techniques develop.

Noise Protection

The main sources of noise are power and heating plants, especially the operation of turbomachinery, cooling systems, and long-distance conveyor belts. In the mining sector, the noise sources are the mining technologies in the overburden and coal cuttings and the operation of the coal treatment plant in Ledvice.

CEZ Group facilities meet health limits for noise in compliance with the law and the conditions in relevant licenses. Numerous measures have been implemented on the technologies to prevent dust, as well as measures to limit the spread of noise (noise barriers). An exemption from noise limits was granted for the operation of the Poříčí power plant based on an assessment concluding that noise had been reduced to an acceptable level and does not pose a risk to human health. CEZ Group power plants met the required noise limits.

Water Protection

Czechia

sníži

Surface water is used for various purposes at CEZ Group's power plants and heating plants, mostly to cool steam after its passage through a turbine in order to increase electricity generation efficiency. Used water is recycled at generating facilities depending on its quality so as to minimize the amount of surface water withdrawn. Groundwater is only used to a minimum extent at CEZ Group. It is mostly for the production of drinking water; a negligible amount is used for other purposes.

The basic prerequisite for water protection is the implementation of preventive measures aimed at minimizing water consumption and eliminating the leakage of harmful substances into surface and groundwater, sewers, and the rock environment. The EMS (Environmental Management System) regularly checks compliance with operational regulations and regular monitoring of the quality of discharged wastewater and groundwater at the sites concerned. Verification of emergency preparedness is ensured by emergency exercises. A technical fault caused a leak of approximately 1,200 l of biodegradable hydraulic oil at the Kamýk hydroelectric power plant. The impact on water quality and biota in the Vltava River was minimized by the timely intervention of operating personnel, ČEZ firefighters in cooperation with the fire and rescue service, and remediation specialists. No mortality of fish or other aquatic animals was recorded at the site or downstream.

No flood or drought conditions were recorded in 2022 that would threaten the operation of sources and facilities. CEZ Group has complied with the conditions of its surface water and groundwater abstraction permits, as well as conditions related to wastewater and mine water discharges. Reports on compliance with water permit conditions are regularly published through the water authorities and the Integrated System on Reported Performance (ISPOP).

Biodiversity: Fauna Protection and Support

Czechia

ČEZ Distribuce has been protecting birds against electric shock on medium-voltage lines since 1990 with the aim of preventing bird mortality caused by perching on medium-voltage support points. Either by design or by adding plastic insulator covers, 70% of the support points are now safe. An additional 16,389 safe support points were added in 2022. In particular, priority sites for bird protection are continuously addressed in cooperation with the Agency for Nature Conservation and Landscape Protection. ČEZ Distribuce actively participates in the working group meetings of the Ministry of the Environment of the Czech Republic, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic, the Agency for Nature Conservation and Landscape Protection of the Czech Republic, the Czech Ornithological Society, and distribution and transmission system operators. As a result, a methodological guideline of the Ministry of the Environment "Ensuring the Protection of Birds from Striking Power Line Conductors" is ready for publication. A methodological guideline "Protection of Storks Nesting on Medium- and Low-Voltage Power Line Poles" has been developed. Every year, dozens of suggestions from citizens, authorities, and environmental organizations related to the protection of birds on distribution grid installations are regularly addressed. The most frequent cases concern stork nests on the support points of low-voltage lines, which are solved by relocating the nest on the basis of an exemption granted by the nature protection authority or by insulating bare wires in the vicinity of the nest. The condition of stork nests located on the distribution grid equipment is actively monitored by ČEZ Distribuce.

Support for the nesting of the peregrine falcon both at the sites of most coal-fired power plants and heating plants as well as at nuclear power plants continued in 2022. 10 out of approximately 130 falcon pairs from all over Czechia were registered on the objects owned by CEZ Group and all of them were successful in raising their offspring. The total number of chicks was 33, which is a record number for the whole monitoring period since 2011, and for the first time ever ornithologists managed to ring all the chicks. Since the first ever aluminum falcon box in Czechia was installed at a cooling tower walkway at the Tušimice power plant, at least 147 young peregrine falcons were taken out. Nesting conditions also continued to be created for sand martins, which are found at the disposal sites of some coal-fired power plants.

In 2022, steps were initiated to conclude a protected area agreement on the Tušimice tailings site. The agreement between ČEZ, a. s., and the Regional Authority of the Ústí nad Labem Region as the nature protection authority will be a commitment to the long-term maintenance of the complex of post-industrial habitats at the tailings site with the aim of stabilizing and strengthening the populations of endangered insect, bird, and plant species. The contractual commitment includes specific principles of care at the site, i.e., elimination of invasive plant species, controlled mowing and grazing of grasslands and, last but not least, methods of monitoring and evaluation of individual indicators of the status of the protected area.

In Dukovany, the protected beavers have been monitored for a long time near watercourses in the vicinity of the Dukovany and Dalešice power plants. It is particularly noticeable near the nearby water discharge reservoir, where power engineers regularly find several gnawed or fallen trees.

Ornithologists have counted forty species of birds in the castle park around the Temelín information center, in close proximity to the power plant. Dozens of other species were also recorded in the wider area around the plant. These included storks, herons, buzzards, and cormorants.

The Company's firefighters regularly capture wildlife and insects in and around both nuclear power plants. Due to the absence of natural predators, the two nuclear sites are home to a large population of brown hares, bats winters here, reptile visits are no exception. To protect the feral cats in the Dukovany power plant area, cooperation with a civic association was established this year. Another project that restores original landscape features is the nuclear vineyard, which is located in close proximity to the western cooling towers of the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and is a testament to the purity of the environment. A total of 2,040 planted Riesling and Sauvignon vines symbolize the current output of the four Dukovany units. This unique project has attracted the interest of both the general public and experts and has already won several awards.

Bee breeding continued in both Dukovany and Temelín. A total of 300kg of honey was spun in both plants. In Temelín, the bees have been bred since 2018; in Dukovany they started breeding in 2021.

Germany

Wind parks comply with stringent requirements for the protection of birds and bats, as documented by environmental impact assessment (EIA).

In the first years of operation, monitoring of the actual impact on birds and bats is carried out, and any negative impact will be eliminated by adjusting the operating modes.

Biodiversity: Land Restoration

One of the most important tasks for minimizing and eliminating the environmental impacts of mining is the restoration of the landscape and ecological stability of large areas after brown coal mining. The creation of a new landscape with the restoration of all basic functions of the reclaimed areas and their nonviolent integration into the surrounding landscape are the main and most important objectives of restoration works. The new areas created by mining activities are gradually and systematically integrated into the landscape below the Krušné hory. These works represent a long-term process that is technically and economically demanding. In 2022, CEZ Group completed landscape restoration on an area of 170 ha, of which 124 ha were agricultural, 25 ha forestry, 5 ha water, and 16 ha other. New land restorations were started on an area of 108 ha, of which 64 ha were agricultural reclamations, 37 ha forestry, 2 ha water, and 5 ha other. In 2022, EUR 358 million was spent on the preparation and obliteration of previous mining activities, CZK 174 million of which was spent on actual remediation and restoration.

At the same time, the mining company Severočeské doly, where the decisive part of restoration takes place, continuously makes a reserve every year to cover the consequences of mining activities during and after mining. Individual restoration projects are processed in accordance with the comprehensive remediation and restoration plan. Local restored areas should fulfill ecological, landscape aesthetic, sports, recreational, and socio-economic functions. As in previous years, technical and biological restoration of the areas affected by CEZ Group's operation of coal-fired facilities continued in 2022. A substantial part of the locality is represented by areas intended for the combination of forestry and landscape restoration.

More than 221,000 trees and 70,000 shrubs were planted by Severočeské doly as part of restoration in 2022, and the ČEZ Foundation contributed to the planting of another 3,300 trees under grant procedures.

An example of a successful implementation of a decarbonization project in the CEZ Group's product portfolio is the Emission-Free Electricity from a nuclear source, which was developed in a joint project between ČEZ and ČEZ ESCO. In the area of strengthening the role of active customers, examples are the pilot projects implemented for community electricity sharing, where customers can use surplus electricity generated in small photovoltaic power plants within a community, e.g., a municipality, or aggregation of flexibility resulting from the combination of providing support services to the transmission system operator from many electricity providers that also use other types of generation technologies. On the basis of the I2US cooperation platform, ČEZ shares information with innovative and non-competing utilities across Europe under the open innovation principle. Its main collaboration tool is sharing innovation opportunities and experience from the implementation of new services, products, business models, and methods for cooperation with partners.

Electric Mobility in Czechia

Charging Stations

Throughout 2022, ČEZ continued to further develop the public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles by installing a record number of charging stations, of which 126 were added. ČEZ continued to focus mainly on DC charging (fast charging stations), with a focus on charging hubs with a larger number of charging racks and the installation of stations with capacities above 150 kW.

As at December 31, 2022, ČEZ had 515 stations in operation in Czechia, including 122 AC stations, 381 DC stations with a capacity of 50 kW, and 12 DC stations with a capacity of more than 150 kW. Charging stations supplied more than 4.4 GWh of electricity in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 25%. ČEZ guarantees the supply of emission-free electricity when recharging.

The construction of the ČEZ network is also significantly supported by public funds. Under the European Connecting Europe Facility program, a project involving 83 DC stations already in operation near the main corridors of the trans-European transport network will be completed this year. Construction is also being carried out with the support of the Transport operational program. Beyond subsidy projects, CEZ Group also carries out construction exclusively from its own resources without state aid.

Charging Service

The charging service offered by ČEZ under the FUTUR/E/GO brand has undergone significant changes thanks to a modern system of operating charging stations using an IT system based on open protocols. In 2022, the network of ČEZ charging stations was made available to customers of other charging service providers, and by the end of the year we had completed preparations for roaming in the opposite direction, i.e., making the networks of other charging station operators available to customers of the FUTUR/E/GO service.

There were two other significant changes in terms of customer service at the end of 2022: (1) the transition to a new payment gateway offering greater flexibility in setting up payments for recharging services was completed, and (2) in December, the terms and conditions were amended (effective January 1, 2023) to allow greater flexibility and scope of service for FUTUR/E/GO customers.

Development Activities (Innovations) and Electromobility Promotion

Within the charging infrastructure, innovative solutions continue to be tested in the form of linking charging stations with battery storage and local renewable generation. CEZ Group continues to support the operation of electric buses on the line between BB Centrum and the Budějovická metro station in Prague and also two electric buses for public transport in Vrchlabí.

We are preparing the construction of small modular reactors

Nuclear energy is a long-term priority for CEZ Group. Small modular reactors will be an important part of the energy mix, in addition to the large nuclear facilities under development. Their advantage is predictable operation and, compared to large reactors, the possibility of mass production and faster construction.

  • EPP—Move to Help mobile app—by being physically active, its users generated points for offered nonprofit projects, which then received financial support from the ČEZ Foundation
  • Orange Bike—one-minute charity rides on specially outfitted stationary bicycles to support local nonprofit organizations offered to visitors of cultural, social, and sports events

Human Resources

As at December 31, 2022, CEZ Group companies employed 28,727 people, a year-on-year increase of 684 employees. The increase was driven by acquisitions in Czechia and Slovakia and the expansion of existing working teams. The reported year-on-year decrease of 691 employees in Germany was due to a methodological refinement whereby certain categories of employees, such as trainees studying at vocational schools (Azubis), were no longer included in the 2022 data.

Welfare policy at CEZ Group consists of a wide range of activities and benefits, both monetary and nonmonetary, provided to employees. Employees earn wages in accordance with CEZ Group's long-term financial performance and reflect the labor market development.

In Czechia, employees are provided with a defined range of benefits such as a shortened 37.5-hour workweek, paid vacation extended to five weeks, eligibility to paid leave beyond the statutory scope, or an opportunity to use various types of flexible working hours, including remote working. An extra wide range of perquisites are also provided, such as personal accounts intended primarily to cover costs of recreation and leisure-time activities; contributions to supplemental pension plans, life insurance, employee meal plans, and special bonuses for jubilees and on retirement. One-off social assistance may be provided in extraordinary cases. Since 2020, employees can take two sick days with salary compensation at 65% of their average pay. All employees and their family members can consult the online medical advice service and make appointments with doctors of various specialties free of charge. An above-standard health care program and preventive medical checks are available to employees working on shifts, aimed at preventing civilization diseases. In addition, Health Days are organized at workplaces, during which employees can undergo various examinations, health procedures, and lectures on healthy lifestyles. Internal online lectures focused on mental and physical health are offered.

The fundamental principles of CEZ Group's remuneration and welfare policy in Czechia apply to companies abroad as well.

Relations with Labor Unions

The union membership rate in larger companies in Czechia is approx. 32%. There were a total of 31 local labor organizations operating at ČEZ in 2022, organizing almost 1,600 employees. Selected major subsidiaries of CEZ Group in Czechia had 37 local labor organizations, organizing more than 2,700 of their employees. Of those 37 labor organizations, 29 are organized under four regional associations. The above labor organizations are members of the ECHO Labor Union, the Czech Union of Power Industry Employees (ČOSE), the KOVO Trade Union, and the Energy and Mining Industry Labor Union (OSEH). ČEZ is a member of the Czech Association of Energy Sector Employers, which negotiates a higher-level collective agreement with ČOSE and ECHO. In 2022, Amendment 6 to a master collective agreement was concluded, which, among other things, extended the agreement until the end of 2025.

Regular meetings were held between the employer and labor union representatives in 2022 in order to provide information to labor unions and to discuss organizational changes and other topics specified by the Labor Code and the collective agreement.

Collective bargaining in 2022 concerned amendments to all collective agreements in force. It was mainly related to wages and benefits. Collective bargaining was completed in 2022 at ČEZ, a. s., by signing Amendments 23 and 24. In selected major subsidiaries, collective bargaining was also successfully completed by concluding amendments to collective agreements.

13 labor unions operated within the Severočeské doly group. Severočeské doly and its subsidiaries PRODECO, Revitrans, and SD - Kolejová doprava have collective agreements effective until December 31, 2025, with the option to extend their validity until March 31, 2026.

In Poland, the collective agreement for CEZ Chorzów extends until 2025 and the collective agreement for employees at CEZ Skawina until 2024.

In Germany, collective agreements in effect at Elevion Group companies are derived from a collective agreement made with members of the German Trade Union Confederation (DGB). They are made for a fixed term or for an indefinite period of time with a two-month cancellation period.

No collective agreement has been concluded in Austria, Italy, and France.

A European Works Council has been operating within CEZ Group since 2007. In 2022, the European Works Council consisted of 21 representatives, of which 14 were from Czechia, 2 from Poland, 4 from Germany, and 1 from Slovakia. In the same year, two meetings of the European Works Council were held in Prague. Topics covered included strategy, financial performance, and foreign markets activities, as well as conventional energy, the development of renewable energy sources, and new nuclear power plants in Czechia.

Legal and Other Proceedings

Legal Proceedings

Czechia

ČEZ, a. s.

    1. Minority shareholders carry on a lawsuit against ČEZ and Severočeské doly a.s., based on an action filed in 2006, seeking declaratory judgment on the adequacy of consideration in compulsory sale of corporate securities. Should the plaintiffs win, the total additional payment could be in the order of hundreds of millions of CZK. The case is heard at first instance. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ carries on a lawsuit against the Appellate Financial Directorate based on an administrative action brought against the decision of the Specialized Tax Office imposing a fine of CZK 150 million for violating the Prices Act in the payment of the price of brown thermal coal supplied by Sokolovská uhelná, právní nástupce, a.s., in 2010, 2012, and 2013. The administrative court admitted the action. The decision of the regional court was appealed by the Appellate Financial Directorate, which was rejected by the Supreme Administrative Court. The case is definitively terminated. The Appellate Financial Directorate annulled the decision imposing the fine on the basis of the legal opinion of the court of first instance.
    1. ČEZ carries on a lawsuit against ŠKODA JS a.s., based on an action filed in 2016. The issue in dispute is damages for lost profits due to wrongly performed radiographic inspections of welded joints at the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant. The amount originally claimed was CZK 611 million plus accessories back in 2016 but, after negotiations over an out-of-court settlement of the dispute failed, a motion was filed to extend the action to a total of CZK 2,759 million in February 2020. The amount currently claimed includes full damages for lost profits. The proceedings are pending before the court of first instance and were suspended in October 2022 on the application of both parties. In view of the acquisition of ŠKODA JS a.s., by ČEZ, a. s., in 2022, this dispute will be the subject of further negotiations between the parties.
  • In the insolvency proceedings against TENZA, a.s., ČEZ filed claims in the total amount of over CZK 1,327 million in March 2021 and subsequently other claims in the total amount of almost CZK 203 million were filed in April 2021. The vast majority of the claims were made for contractual penalties and damages, as well as for related costs associated with the breach of work contracts for the construction of the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant (TPP) thermal feeder and the reconstruction of the TPP unit heat exchanger station. TENZA, a.s., breached its contractual obligation to complete the work and hand it over in a proper and timely manner. Most of the claims in both applications were denied by the insolvency administrator and the debtor as to their authenticity and, to a limited extent, as to their amount. For this reason, ČEZ filed 6 injunctive claims in June 2021. The actions were followed by in-court proceedings. ČEZ withdrew part of its partial claim filed in the insolvency proceedings in the amount of CZK 30 million and CZK 144 million. The claim was paid up to these amounts from bank guarantees negotiated by TENZA, a.s. At the same time, negotiations were conducted between ČEZ, the insolvency administrator of TENZA, a.s., and its subcontractors, on the basis of which a settlement agreement was concluded between these entities (after court approval at the end of March 2022). Following this agreement, the disputes between the insolvency administrator and ČEZ, as well as between other creditors—former subcontractors of TENZA, a.s.—were terminated. On the basis of the settlement agreement, the insolvency administrator recognized all the claims filed by ČEZ as being filed in accordance with the law, while most of these claims of ČEZ became so-called subordinated claims. The insolvency proceedings are still pending. The secured creditors are being settled and the assets of TENZA, a.s., are being monetized. The insolvency court agreed, by its last resolution of December 27, 2022, that the insolvency administrator should sell by sale outside the auction part of the assets of TENZA, a.s., registered in the assets of ČEZ (with regard to the specificity of use).

ČEZ Distribuce, a. s. (hereinafter referred to as ČEZ Distribuce)

    1. SPR a.s., carries on a lawsuit against ČEZ Distribuce based on an action filed in May 2013, seeking payment of CZK 213 million plus accessories. The matter in dispute is the existence of loss alleged by the plaintiff, which was allegedly incurred due to a breach of obligations by ČEZ Distribuce in relation to the connection of the Dubí photovoltaic power plant to the distribution grid—the alleged unequal access to applicants for connection in 2010. The plaintiff seeks the imposition of an editorial obligation, which the court of first instance has repeatedly refused, and the plaintiff has appealed again. The proceedings on the merits are pending before the court of first instance. The proceedings are currently still in the evidence phase. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. Four electricity producers/local distribution system operators carry on significant lawsuits against ČEZ Distribuce based on actions filed in 2015, 2016, and 2017. The matter in dispute is a claim for recovery of unjust enrichment consisting in the electricity distribution price component to cover costs associated with renewable electricity support that was allegedly incorrectly billed but duly paid by the plaintiffs in relation to their internal electricity consumption from January 1, 2013, to October 1, 2013. The total payment claimed from ČEZ Distribuce exceeds CZK 1 billion plus accessories. Following a special panel's decision on conflict of jurisdiction, court proceedings in all of the lawsuits were discontinued in 2019 and the matter was referred to the Energy Regulatory Office (ERO). The Energy Regulatory Office has finally decided to reject the claim for unjustified enrichment in all four cases so far. In three cases, a subsequent action under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure was also dismissed and an appeal was filed. The outcomes of the proceedings are impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Distribuce carries on 2 lawsuits against OTE, a.s., based on actions brought in 2016 and 2017, seeking recovery of unjust enrichment from OTE amounting to CZK 7.6 billion plus accessories, consisting in the electricity distribution price component to cover costs associated with renewable electricity support being incorrectly billed but duly paid by ČEZ Distribuce from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2013. Both the claims for the period from January 1, 2013, to October 1, 2013, and the claims for the period from October 2, 2013, to December 31, 2013, were denied by the ERO and the ERO Board, and in both cases actions have already been filed under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure. As regards the claim for the period from January 1, 2013, to October 1, 2013, the court dismissed the claim in its entirety and the court of appeal upheld that decision as correct. An appeal will be filed. The outcomes of the proceedings are impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Distribuce carries on a lawsuit against ŠKO-ENERGO, s.r.o., based on an action brought in 2016, seeking payment of CZK 113 million plus accessories from ŠKO-ENERGO. The matter in dispute is additional payment of the electricity distribution price component to cover costs associated with electricity support for the period from April 1, 2013, to October 1, 2013. The Energy Regulatory Office dismissed the claim of ČEZ Distribuce in the first instance. Based on a remonstrance filed by ČEZ Distribuce, the first-instance decision was reversed by the ERO Board in January 2020 and the matter was remanded to the first instance. The Energy Regulatory Office decided to dismiss the claim of ČEZ Distribuce in May 2020. A remonstrance was filed against the decision, followed by an action under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure which the court rejected. ČEZ Distribuce filed an appeal, on the basis of which the court of appeal annulled the previous decision and replaced it with a new decision, which upheld ČEZ Distribuce's claim in its entirety and ordered ŠKO-ENERGO to pay the defendant the amount of the claim, including the accessories. ŠKO-ENERGO filed an appeal. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Distribuce carries on a lawsuit against Liberty Ostrava a.s. (formerly ArcelorMittal Ostrava a.s.), based on an action brought in 2019, seeking payment of CZK 225 million plus accessories. The matter in dispute is unreceived payments for system services for the period from February 2016 to November 2018 that ČEZ Distribuce invoiced ArcelorMittal Ostrava a.s. (i.e., the SYS II action). The case is heard at first instance and has been stayed. The dispute outcome depends on the decision in another proceeding for January 2016 (i.e., the SYS I action), which has already been finally terminated in favor of ČEZ Distribuce. However, Liberty Ostrava a.s., has filed an appeal against the decision, the outcome of which is pending. In November 2021, a lawsuit was filed against Liberty Ostrava a.s., for CZK 132 million with accessories in the same case due to the fear of the impending statute of limitations. The subject matter of the newly initiated litigation is payments for system services for December 2018 to June 2021 (i.e., the SYS III action). The outcomes of the proceedings are impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Distribuce, a. s., is conducting a dispute with ORLEN UNIPETROL RPA s.r.o., for CZK 159 million with accessories on the basis of a claim filed with the arbitration court in 2022. The matter in dispute is the outstanding payments for system services for the period from January 2019 to June 2022 invoiced by ČEZ Distribuce, a. s., to ORLEN UNIPETROL RPA s.r.o. The proceedings are suspended. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict. Payments for the previous period of January 2016 to December 2018 are covered by a memorandum which, among other things, extends the limitation period for individual claims beyond the statutory limitation period so that they do not have to be sued in the meantime.
    1. In an insolvency proceeding against Česká energie, a.s., ČEZ Distribuce submitted an unsecured claim for CZK 138 million plus accessories arising from failure to pay for distribution system services under a contract. The insolvency proceeding commenced in December 2016 and is still pending. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Distribuce filed an insolvency petition combined with a bankruptcy petition against SCP first payment of receivables s.r.o. (formerly ENWOX ENERGY s.r.o.), in December 2017, submitting its matured unsecured claim for CZK 115 million plus accessories in the proceeding. The claim arose from failure to pay for distribution system services under a contract. The insolvency proceeding is pending. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.

ČEZ Prodej, a.s. (hereinafter referred to as ČEZ Prodej)

    1. ČEZ Prodej carries on a lawsuit against state organization Správa železnic (SŽ, formerly Správa železniční dopravní cesty, státní organizace, abbreviated as SŽDC) based on an action brought in 2010, seeking damages in the amount of CZK 805 million plus accessories. The matter in dispute is an alleged breach of an electricity supply contract by SŽ, consisting in failure to take deliveries of an agreed amount of electricity in 2010, and the resulting loss. Following an application for leave to appeal filed by SŽ, the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic overturned the rulings of the courts of first and second instance and remanded the case to the court of first instance. The court of first instance dismissed the action. The court of appeal upheld the ruling of the court of first instance in May 2019. ČEZ Prodej withdrew the action before it was served the judgment of the court of second instance. The judgment of the court of appeal was received in August 2019, whereby the judgment of the court of first instance was upheld and the withdrawal was declared void. The judgments of the courts of both instances became final. ČEZ Prodej filed an appeal and a constitutional complaint, on which the Constitutional Court ruled in August 2020 and annulled the decision of the court of appeal on the ineffectiveness of the withdrawal. In October 2020, the Municipal Court in Prague decided on ineffectiveness of withdrawal of the action again. In May 2021, the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic upheld the appeal, overturned the judgments of both courts of first instance and returned the case to the court of first instance for further proceedings. In addition, SŽ, which had paid the amount claimed, brought an action against ČEZ Prodej, seeking recovery of unjust enrichment amounting to the paid sum of CZK 1,116 million plus accessories (details of the proceedings are presented in a separate paragraph below). In September 2022, a hearing was held, during which the court granted ČEZ Prodej's claim for CZK 765 million and awarded default interest, the claim for CZK 40 million was dismissed. Both parties appealed against the judgment. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. Proceedings on SŽ's claim for unjust enrichment: In 2017, SŽ brought an action seeking unjust enrichment in connection with the Trakce 2010 proceedings (see paragraph above). The court of first instance admitted the action. The court of appeal upheld the judgment of the court of first instance. After the decision became final, ČEZ Prodej paid the defendant the amount including the accessories and filed an appeal in the case. The Supreme Court of the Czech Republic decided to annul the judgment of the court of appeal and remanded the case back for further proceedings. SŽ was ordered to repay the amount paid in full, which it refused to do. Consequently, the court of appeal set aside the judgment of the court of first instance and remanded the case back to the court of first instance for further proceedings. It was recommended that, within three years of the amount being paid into the SŽ account, an action should be brought for the recovery of the amount as unjust enrichment, and that action was brought in October 2022. A hearing in the matter was scheduled for March 2023. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Prodej carries on a lawsuit against SŽ based on an action brought in 2013, seeking damages in the amount of CZK 857 million plus accessories. The matter in dispute is an alleged breach of an electricity supply contract by SŽ, consisting in failure to take deliveries of an agreed amount of electricity in 2011, and the resulting loss. At a hearing in January 2022, the court of first instance, after the court of appeal reversed the decision of the court of first Instance, granted the application in its entirety. The SŽ authority filed an appeal against the decision. In February 2023, a hearing of the court of appeal (High Court in Prague) took place, at which a judgment was delivered confirming the original first-instance judgment in the amount of CZK 727 million and dismissed the action for CZK 131 million. SŽ is also obliged to pay the accessories, which amount to almost the value of the principal amount awarded.
    1. ČEZ Prodej carried on a lawsuit against OTE, a.s., based on an action brought in 2016, seeking substitution of a decision by the Energy Regulatory Office and a decision by the Chairwoman of the Energy Regulatory Office concerning the payment of an amount in excess of CZK 124 million as the outstanding difference in purchase prices paid to solar electricity producers, which were paid by OTE, a.s., to ČEZ Prodej as a mandatory purchaser. The court of first instance dismissed the action. The court of appeal upheld the ruling of the court of first instance. ČEZ Prodej filed an appeal against the decision of the court of appeal, which was rejected by the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic in August 2021. ČEZ Prodej filed a constitutional complaint against the decision of the Supreme Court of the Czech Republic, which was rejected. The case is closed with final effect.
    1. ČEZ Prodej carries on a lawsuit against ACTHERM, spol. s r.o. (a distribution system operator), seeking damages in excess of CZK 185 million plus accessories based on an action brought in 2016 (CZK 124 million) and its extension in 2017 concerning loss incurred in the subsequent period (CZK 61 million). The matter in dispute is loss caused by the actions of ACTHERM, spol. s r.o., during the registration of three solar electricity producers in the market operator's system and the delivery of information on the registration to ČEZ Prodej. In May 2021, ČEZ Prodej received a resolution to discontinue the proceedings and refer the case to the Energy Regulatory Office. ČEZ Prodej filed an appeal against the order, which the court of appeal upheld. The court of first instance subsequently satisfied the action brought by ČEZ Prodej by judgment of November 2021. An appeal was lodged against the judgment upholding the appeal. The court of appeals reversed the judgment and dismissed ČEZ Prodej's action. ČEZ Prodej appealed against the dismissal, which has not yet been decided. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. ČEZ Prodej carries on three lawsuits with solar electricity producers based on actions filed in March 2017, seeking recovery of unjust enrichment of CZK 160 million. The unjust enrichment consists in the collection of higher purchase prices than those reimbursed to ČEZ Prodej by OTE, a.s. The court of first instance discontinued the proceedings in all three cases and referred the cases to the Energy Regulatory Office for further proceedings. In all cases, the Energy Regulatory Office issued a decision according to which the producers are obliged to pay the due amount with accessories. The Board of the Energy Regulatory Office rejected the remonstrances of the producers and confirmed the first-instance decision. All producers brought an action under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure. The outcomes of the proceedings are impossible to predict.
    1. OTE, a.s., carries on a lawsuit against ČEZ Prodej, based on an action brought in 2018, seeking payment of CZK 104 million plus accessories. The legal title of the defendant's sum is the payment of the difference between the purchase price and the hourly price paid by OTE, a.s., a company of ČEZ Prodej, which compulsorily purchases electricity from solar electricity producers. The difference arose in the period from January 1, 2013, to April 30, 2018. The court of first instance issued a ruling discontinuing the action and referring the case to the Energy Regulatory Office. The Energy Regulatory Office decided to reject the motion of OTE, a.s. OTE, a.s., filed an appeal against the negative decision, which was rejected by the decision of the Board of the Energy Regulatory Office and the decision was confirmed. OTE, a.s., filed a lawsuit under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure, which is pending before the District Court for Prague 4; the court has joined this proceeding with the proceedings in the case of another producer for CZK 52 million. The hearing is scheduled for April 2023. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. OTE, a.s., carries on two administrative proceedings before the Energy Regulatory Office against ČEZ Prodej, based on petitions filed in July 2019, seeking recovery of unjust enrichment totaling CZK 327 million. The legal ground for the amount claimed is recovery of the difference between the purchase price and the hourly price paid by OTE, a.s., to ČEZ Prodej as a mandatory purchaser in the period from January 1, 2013, to May 31, 2018. The Energy Regulatory Office decided to reject the motions of OTE, a.s. OTE, a.s., filed remonstrances against the rejection decisions, which were rejected by the rulings of the Energy Regulatory Office Board and the original decisions were confirmed. OTE, a.s., brought an action under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.
    1. OTE, a.s., is conducting proceedings against ČEZ Prodej for the payment of CZK 114 million, including accessories. The legal title of the defendant's sum is the payment of the difference between the purchase price and the hourly price paid by OTE, a.s., a company of ČEZ Prodej, which compulsorily purchases electricity from solar electricity producers. The difference arose in the period from January 1, 2013 to July 31, 2021. Due to OTE's withdrawal of the application, the ERO decided to discontinue the proceedings. The case is closed.
    1. Three producers of solar electricity commenced three administration proceedings in December 2020 against ČEZ Prodej seeking a payment of CZK 475 million plus accessories. According to the producers, the claimed amount represents an outstanding financial aid having the form of purchase prices applicable to generation facilities commissioned in 2010 (or of the difference between 2010 and 2011) for electricity produced in the period from May 1, 2018, or June 1, 2018, to November 30, 2020. For the period from May 1, 2018, to February 28, 2019, the producers claim only the difference between purchase prices applicable to generating facilities commissioned in 2010 and 2011; for the period from March 1, 2019, to November 30, 2020, the producers claim purchase prices applicable to generating facilities commissioned in 2010 in full. Three separate administration proceedings are related to these proceedings, where the same producers claim the financial aid totaling CZK 70 million plus accessories. According to the producers, the amount claimed in these proceedings represents an outstanding financial aid having the form of purchase prices applicable to generation facilities commissioned in 2011 for electricity produced in the period from May 1, 2018, or June 1, 2018, to February 28, 2019. In all proceedings, the producers' application was rejected and remonstrances were lodged against the rejection decisions. The decisions of the ERO Board rejected all appeals and confirmed the ERO decisions. Producers bring actions under Part V of the Code of Civil Procedure (this has already happened in some cases). The outcomes of the proceedings are impossible to predict.
    1. OTE, a.s., is conducting proceedings against ČEZ Prodej for the payment of CZK 129.5 million. The legal reason is the payment of the difference between the purchase price and the hourly price paid by OTE, a.s., a company of ČEZ Prodej, which compulsorily purchases electricity from solar electricity producers. The difference arose in the period from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018. The proceedings were initiated in December 2022 and are being conducted by the District Court for Prague 4. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.

ŠKODA JS a.s.

    1. In November 2016, ČEZ, a. s., filed a lawsuit for compensation of damages incurred by ČEZ in the form of lost profits as a result of defective radiographic inspections of weld joints at the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant. In its response to the action, ŠKODA JS a.s, rejected the claim of ČEZ, a. s. The amount originally claimed was CZK 611 million plus accessories back in 2016 but, after negotiations over an out-of-court settlement of the dispute failed, a motion was filed by ČEZ, a. s., to extend the action to a total of CZK 2,759 million in February 2020. The amount currently claimed includes full damages for lost profits. The proceedings are pending before the court of first instance and were suspended in October 2022 on the application of both parties. In view of the acquisition of ŠKODA JS a.s., by ČEZ, a. s., in 2022, this dispute will be the subject of further negotiations between the parties.
    1. ŠKODA JS a.s., filed a lawsuit against its supplier of part of the radiographic inspections of weld joints at the Dukovany NPP, TEDIKO, s.r.o., for damages of CZK 611 million in connection with the "WELDS" case, out of caution and because of the impending statute of limitations. This is a potential recourse claim against the supplier, which is suspended pending the outcome of the dispute between ŠKODA JS a.s., and ČEZ, a. s., in the above-mentioned "WELDS" dispute.
    1. The former managers of ŠKODA JS a.s., have been indicted by the public prosecutor for committing economic crimes. These proceedings are at the main trial stage. In view of the expiry of the statute of limitations, ŠKODA JS a.s., has brought civil actions against these former managers (out of caution and due diligence) for breach of the defendants' duty to act with due care in the exercise of their former functions on the plaintiff's board of directors, in a total amount exceeding CZK 400 million.

    1. CEZ Erneuerbare Energien Beteiligungs II GmbH, together with CEZ MH B.V. and other interested parties within CEZ Group, pursue claims against a group of accused persons (and related companies), who are subject to a criminal proceedings on the basis of a suspicion that these accused persons, acting as an organized group, committed fraud, forged documents, and committed bribery in relation to sale of wind farm projects to institutional and other investors across Europe (the so-called Holt Holding case). The total claimed sum amounted to EUR 5.7 million without accessories. More than EUR 1 million was recovered in 2020. As part of the criminal proceedings, all the perpetrators were apprehended. The trial of the defendants began in August 2021 and sentences were delivered in May 2022. The defendants were sentenced to prison terms ranging from 3 to 7.5 years. For some of the defendants, the sentences are not yet final as an appeal is pending. The CEZ Group companies have filed claims in bankruptcy proceedings against the assets of the perpetrators. The outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted.
    1. In December 2020, GMH Gebäudemanagement Hamburg GmbH (subsidiary of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg) filed an action against Kofler Energies Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH. The action requires an issuance of a preliminary judgment that will decide on the basis of the case only, specifically determining the justification of liability of the defendant for damage caused in the supply of design work in construction of buildings of Hamburg University in 2013–2017 (i.e., before the acquisition of the defendant by CEZ Group). Although no specific amount is being sued for now, it is clear that the dispute will range in tens of millions of EUR. If the claimant succeeds to the extent that the awarded amount shall not be covered by defendant's liability insurance, the sum shall be claimed by CEZ Group against the sellers, as it is stipulated in the transaction documentation on the basis of which the defendant became a member of CEZ Group. Kofler Energies Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH filed a statement of defense, while the applicant extended the action to other parties involved in the planning of the buildings of the University of Hamburg. As a result of this extension of the application, the last time-limits for submitting observations on the application will expire in February 2023. Thereafter, the court will set a time limit for the applicant to file a reply. It can be expected that the oral hearing (as a mandatory condition for a judgment) will not take place until 2024. The length of the litigation cannot yet be predicted.
  • In July 2020, CEZ ESCO II GmbH (a member of CEZ Group), as the buyer, filed a claim for damages against Kofler Energies AG (now Kofler Energies GmbH) and its two guarantors as sellers on the basis of the SPA (acquisition of shares in Kofler Energies Ingenieurgesellschaft). Following the conclusion of the SPA in July 2018, it became apparent that the work in progress and the resulting subsequent loss-making nature of certain projects of Kofler Energies Ingenieurgesellschaft were not correctly reflected in the company's accounting and supporting documents. The court-confirmed settlement was concluded on March 28, 2022.

Poland

  1. In 2009, Agrowind Kończewo sp. z o.o. (AWK) filed an action against seven companies jointly and severally, one of which is Eco-Wind Construction S.A. (CEZ Group member), seeking compensation of PLN 22.7 million (approx. CZK 122 million) plus interest in compensation because the companies frustrated the installation of wind turbines and transformer stations on land that the claim alleges was held by AWK. In December 2012, the claim was increased to a total of PLN 112.7 million plus interest. Subsequently, the proceedings against Eco-Wind Construction S.A. were suspended due to the bankruptcy of the company's assets. With respect to the other defendants (other than CEZ Group), the proceedings continued and ended with a final decision, which was complied with by the obliged parties. As the bankruptcy proceedings against Eco-Wind Construction S.A., were terminated at the end of 2021, the court will have to decide how to proceed with the proceedings against this company, which has since entered liquidation. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.

  2. In November 2021, CEZ Skawina S.A. (a CEZ Group member) filed a lawsuit against the Polish state—the Minister of Climate and Environment (Skarb Państwa—Minister Klimatu i Środowiska), the subject of which is a demand for payment of PLN 47 million, or other compensation, on the grounds of compensating for the non-issuance of 176,197t of greenhouse gas emission allowances which CEZ Skawina S.A. should have received as a result of the investment task included in the National Investment Plan. CEZ Skawina S.A.'s entitlement to free emission allowances is based on Polish national law. However, as a result of the alleged inconsistency of Polish national law with Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of October 13, 2003, establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (EU ETS Directive), the Minister for Climate and Environment refused to issue the emission allowances, referring to the relevant opinion of the European Commission. CEZ Skawina S.A. brought an action for compensation due to the non-issuance of emission allowances for the liability of a member state for a breach of EU law. The case is currently pending before the court of first instance. In the defense, it was argued that CEZ Skawina's claim was unfounded, in particular with regard to the question of the law's compatibility with EU legislation, where compensation for damages would constitute unlawful state aid. In view of the need to comment on the defendant's arguments, counsel for CEZ Skawina applied for admission to submit a statement of defense. This proposal has not yet been discussed. The date of the main hearing has been set for August 9, 2023. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.

Turkey

  1. Yılmaz Elektrik A.S. was one of the largest suppliers to SEDAS (a member of CEZ Group), which carried out investment works in the distribution area. However, due to non-performance of contractual obligations, SEDAS terminated the existing contracts with Yılmaz Elektrik in March 2022. Although the contracts were terminated, Yılmaz Elektrik did not return various types of materials (e.g. concrete poles, transformers, cables) that were provided for the investment works and were the property of SEDAS. Therefore, SEDAS obtained an interim measure from the Sakarya commercial court and the materials were partially removed from Yılmaz Elektrik's construction sites and warehouses. Subsequently, in accordance with the law, within two weeks after the interim measure was issued, a lawsuit was filed against Yılmaz Elektrik for the return of the materials and, if return is not possible, for their full payment. The current market value of the materials in question is TRY 120 million. Insolvency proceedings were initiated against Yılmaz Elektrik in the same year. In view of the fact that the time for the use of the relevant materials is limited, an application for the possibility to use them was filed as a precautionary measure. The court granted the request on the condition that SEDAS would provide a guarantee of TRY 35 million in the form of a Letter of Guarantee.

Italy

  1. ENERGYKA ELECTROSYSTEM SRL claims in a lawsuit dated May 2020 against Belectric Italia S.r.l. (a CEZ Group member) for the remuneration from the contract for mediating the investment opportunity concluded between ENERGYKA ELECTROSYSTEM SRL and Belectric Italia S.r.l. in 2016, in the amount of EUR 11 million. The subject of this agreement was in particular the commitment to broker investment opportunities by ENERGYKA ELECTROSYSTEM SRL in the field of photovoltaic projects in Italy. Belectric Italia S.r.l. was taken control of by CEZ ESCO II GmbH (a member of the CEZ Group) in December 2021. Several oral hearings have already been held, the most recent on September 26 and December 5, 2022, where additional witnesses were heard and confirmed the facts alleged by Belectric Italia. The next hearing is scheduled for July 3, 2023.

Other Proceedings

Czechia

  1. In connection with the criminal proceedings against four individuals outside CEZ Group in the case of the Vranovská Ves PV plant, the seizure of funds of ČEZ Obnovitelné zdroje, s.r.o., in the total amount of CZK 1,063 million continued for part of 2022. The seizure was based on the decision of the Czech Police in 2016, and the seizure of funds in the bank account of ČEZ in the amount of CZK 223 million, where the companies could not dispose of these funds for the duration of the seizure. In the said criminal proceedings, an acquittal was delivered for the second time at the end of 2021, becoming final on March 23, 2022, following this, the competent court issued an order dated March 31, 2022, canceling the seizure of funds of ČEZ Obnovitelné zdroje, s.r.o.; the funds were returned to the account of ČEZ Obnovitelné zdroje on June 7, 2022. The court's order to unblock the funds in the account of ČEZ, a. s., was issued on June 2, 2022, and the funds were unblocked in August 2022.

Bulgaria

  1. In July 2016, ČEZ filed a Request for Arbitration with the International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), officially commencing international investment arbitration against the Republic of Bulgaria under the Energy Charter Treaty on the grounds of nonprotection of investment. The place of arbitration is Washington, D.C., USA, in accordance with the rules of the ICSID. The claim amounts to hundreds of millions of EUR. In the first place, the jurisdictional objection of the Republic of Bulgaria was addressed, i.e., the question of the arbitral tribunal's jurisdiction to decide the dispute, which the arbitral tribunal rejected in its award of March 2, 2021. The arbitration thus moved to the merits phase. On July 3, 2021, ČEZ filed its first Memorial on Merits in the arbitration, containing a factual description of the facts of the case, a detailed legal argumentation, and a quantification of the claim. The Counter-Memorial was filed on February 1, 2022, and ČEZ responded with a Reply on Merits dated September 26, 2022, to which the counterparty issued a Rejoinder on Merits on January 25, 2023. According to the arbitration schedule, an oral hearing should then take place in late April/May 2023. The outcome of the proceeding is impossible to predict.

Russia

  1. In the period from June to December 2022, Gazprom Export LLC (GPE) significantly reduced the natural gas supplies previously ordered from it by ČEZ, a. s. GPE justified its action on the grounds that it was allegedly prevented from delivering a larger quantity by a force majeure obstacle. ČEZ repeatedly rejected this argumentation and demanded that GPE compensate ČEZ for the damage caused by its failure to deliver the gas, which GPE refused. ČEZ is therefore seeking payment of the damages—estimated at approximately CZK 1 billion— through an arbitration claim filed against GPE in February 2023. The arbitration is being conducted in Geneva, Switzerland, under the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) and its outcome cannot be predicted.

We are exploring the possibilities of using hydrogen in the energy sector

We are monitoring the possibilities of using hydrogen in the energy sector both as an alternative fuel for power plants, where we expect to gradually replace gas combustion, and as a universal energy carrier, similar to electricity. Hydrogen can be stored in fuel cells and the energy consumption can be regulated as required.

Developments in Sectoral Regulation and Legislation

The business environment in which CEZ Group operates is significantly impacted by regulation and legislation at the level of the European Union as well as that of individual countries of our presence. The present chapter is not a list of all relevant changes in this field. It only highlights the major events, documents and acts at the European and Czech national levels.

Given the external circumstances significantly affecting the energy market in Czechia, in particular the military invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation on February 24, 2022, and the related changes in the security, and energy situation in Europe and the unprecedented increase in energy prices, there was a need to respond to this development through legislation, in particular through accelerated amendments to the Energy Act, the Supported Energy Sources Act, and related subordinate legislation.

European Union

REPowerEU and the Progress of the Fit for 55 Package

On May 18, the European Commission published the REPowerEU plan, which outlines the path to EU energy independence from Russian fossil fuels by 2027. The publication followed the first REPowerEU document of March 8, in which the Commission began outlining steps to prevent Europe's energy dependence on Russia from becoming a weapon against the EU. The main objective of REPowerEU was twofold:

  • 1) Ending Europe's dependence on Russian fossil fuels as soon as possible, in principle by 2027, and reducing Russian gas consumption by ⅔ by the end of 2022.
  • 2) Ensuring the long-term sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and energy supply of the EU energy system through a managed transition away from this long-term relationship with Russia.

Achieving these objectives will require a combination of short-, medium-, and long-term challenges and measures covering the following three pillars: i) reducing demand, ii) diversifying suppliers for conventional (fossil) fuel imports while ensuring adequate infrastructure for the future, iii) accelerating the transition to renewable energy sources. The timeframe and level of ambitions are such that the speed and scale of action will have to go far beyond the proposals previously put forward, for example in the Fit for 55 and Hydrogen and Decarbonized Gas Market packages. Under this package, the European Commission proposes, among other things, to increase the renewable energy target for 2030 or to increase the short-term binding target under the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) from 9% to 13%. The European Commission also proposes a target of 10 million tons of hydrogen production from renewable sources in the EU and the same amount of imports by 2030. REPowerEU was subsequently reflected in new and pending legislative initiatives. On July 26, following the REPowerEU plan, the EU Council agreed on the Save Gas for a Safe Winter package, originally proposed by the Commission, to voluntarily reduce member states' gas demand by 15% compared to their average consumption over the last five years between August 1, 2022, and March 31, 2023. REPowerEU also calls for much greater efforts to deploy renewable energy sources and related smart energy technologies such as heat pumps and hydrogen electrolyzers. It proposes to increase the target of the Renewable Energy Directive—a revision which is part of the Fit for 55 package. This is an increase from 40% to 45% by 2030, equivalent to 1,236 GW of installed renewable energy capacity compared to 1,067 GW in the original draft revision. However, negotiations on key sectoral legislative documents under Fit for 55 are still ongoing, with the exception of the revision of the EU ETS directive.

For this directive, agreement was found on the positions of the EU Council (June) and subsequently the European Parliament (July) in the summer of 2022. Under the Czech presidency, trialogues were held during which all three institutions tried to agree on the final form of the directive. A preliminary agreement was reached in December, with the legal conclusion of the text taking place in the first weeks of 2023. The agreement foresees, among other things, the creation of a parallel greenhouse gas emissions trading system for buildings and transport, an increase in the linear reduction factor to 4.3% for the period 2024–2027 and 4.4% in 2028–2030, a modification of the market stabilization mechanism or the rules of the Innovation and Modernization Fund. Allowance revenues should be used for energy-climatic purposes.

Gas Package

One of the main objectives for both the pieces of legislation (the revision of Directive 2009/73/EU and Regulation 715/2009/EU) is to create a market for low-carbon and renewable hydrogen and enable the development of dedicated infrastructure, including for trade with third countries. By the end of 2035, natural gas and hydrogen network operators must be unbundled. At the same time, hydrogen generation and supply activities must be separated from transit activities. A new governance structure in the form of the European Network of Network Operators for Hydrogen (ENNOH) will be created to support dedicated hydrogen infrastructure, cross-border coordination, and the construction of interconnection networks, and to develop specific technical rules.

Low-carbon gases, defined as gases with emissions 70% lower than comparable fossil fuels, will have a specific certification system and, in an effort to increase their use, will benefit from discounts (up to 75% for low-carbon gases) or exemptions (for renewable gases) from tariffs, but national regulators may decide not to apply them. Gas transmission system operators will also be obliged to accept gas flows with up to 2% hydrogen content at cross-border interconnection points from October 1, 2025.

Another priority is consumer empowerment and protection. Reflecting the provisions already in place in the electricity market, consumers can more easily switch suppliers, use effective price comparison tools, get accurate, fair and transparent billing information, and have better access to data and new smart technologies. Consumers should be able to choose renewable and low-carbon gases over fossil fuels. On December 12, the 3rd revision of the directive and the regulation was published in the framework of the European Parliament's discussion of the gas package, taking into account written comments from member states, the Commission's correction, and the debates and technical changes resulting from the Energy Working Party and the Permanent Representatives Committee. A number of reservations remain on the wording of the directive and the regulation and it can therefore be expected that the negotiations on the gas package will continue throughout 2023.

Gas Legislation in Response to the Russian Invasion

In the gas sector, the European Commission has approved a series of proposals during 2022 in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the related use of energy resources as coercive means of advancing Russian interests. These standards were adopted as Council (EU) regulations under the accelerated legislative procedure based on Article 122 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, i.e., only by member states without the European Parliament. The EU was thus able to adopt these rules in a matter of weeks, compared to a process that usually takes several years. The first of these was Regulation (EU) 2022/1032 of June 29, 2022, on gas storage, amending Regulations (EU) 2017/1938 and (EC) No. 715/2009, which introduces targets and a trajectory for filling the total capacity of all gas storage facilities on a given date in a given member state, their monitoring and enforcement through the use it or lose it principle, or if a lessee does not use the leased capacity in gas storage facilities and fill them according to the trajectory set by the regulation, it will lose that capacity. It also introduces an obligation to certify storage operators to ensure that natural gas storage is optimized and maximized. Another adopted was Council Regulation (EU) 2022/1369 of August 5, 2022, on coordinated measures to reduce gas demand, pursuing the primary objective of reducing

gas demand in the EU by at least 15%.

Council Regulation (EU) 2022/2576 of December 19, 2022, on strengthening solidarity through better coordination of gas purchases, reliable reference prices, and cross-border gas exchanges aims to aggregate gas demand and subsequently secure supply on global markets to meet it. Member states will require domestic companies to subscribe to at least part of the volume they order, equivalent to at least 15% of the national gas storage capacity (equivalent to about 13.5 billion m3 of gas at EU level). Above this threshold, it will be a voluntary instrument. In a second step, companies will be able to choose whether to purchase gas through the Platform, either on an individual basis or jointly in consortium with others from those gas producers or suppliers that cover aggregate demand. ACER will ensure data collection for stable and predictable pricing of LNG transactions, which would provide an alternative and reduce the impact of using the Title Transfer Facility (TTF), a benchmark on the virtual gas trading venue in the Netherlands (which is the main benchmark for defining gas prices in wholesale contracts, subsequently transcribed into retail; however, it no longer adequately reflects prices for LNG transactions). The regulation also introduces the possibility for member states to reduce the consumption of protected customers (pool heating, etc.) in order to ensure supply for essential services and industry. The measure will not affect essential consumption of protected customers such as heating of homes, schools, or hospitals. It will be up to member states to define what is referred to as "non-essential". States may also require solidarity from others when they need to provide critical quantities of gas for electricity generation. The regulation also introduces an obligation for LNG market participants to report records of offers to sell, bids to buy, or transactions involving LNG trading. Council Regulation (EU) 2022/2578 of December 22, 2022, establishing a market correction mechanism to protect citizens and the economy from excessively high prices, will be automatically activated when the TTF gas price for the month ahead exceeds EUR 180/MWh for three working days and, at the same time, this price is by EUR 35 higher than the reference price of LNG on world markets. This mechanism is effective from February 15, 2023. The regulation is temporary and will be valid for one year.

Regulation on Fluorinated Greenhouse Gases (F-gases)

On April 5, the EC also published a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) on fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases) as amended by Directive (EU) 2019/1937 and repealing Regulation (EU) 517/2014. The primary objective of this regulation is to further tighten controls and incentivize the use of climate-friendly alternatives for hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-gases). The proposal updates a number of obligations for businesses, such as implementing best practices, checking for leaks, record keeping, training of service personnel, and proper waste treatment. In addition, the new regulation also strengthens existing monitoring and verification systems. In November 2022, the Czech presidency published a compromise draft text and the negotiations and search for a compromise text will continue in 2023.

Regulation on Methane Emission Reduction

A proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) on the reduction of methane emissions in the energy sector and amending Regulation (EU) 2019/942 was published by the European Commission on December 15, 2021. The proposal introduces new requirements for the oil, gas, and coal sectors to measure, report, and verify methane emissions. Operators will have to carefully document all wells and mines, monitor their emissions, and take mitigation measures to minimize methane emissions at their operations. Under the new rules, operators will have to detect and repair methane leaks. Operators will also be required to conduct methane leak surveys at specified intervals in various types of infrastructure using equipment with proposed minimum leak detection limits. The Council reached agreement on a general approach on December 19, 2022, and started negotiations with the European Parliament in early 2023 with the aim of reaching agreement on a final wording.

Delegated Act on Sustainable Finance

On February 2, 2022, a draft Commission Delegated Regulation supplementing the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of June 4, 2021 was published, supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the establishment of technical screening criteria for determining under which conditions a nuclear and natural gas economic activity qualifies as a significant contribution to climate change mitigation or climate change adaptation and whether that economic activity significantly undermines any of the other environmental objectives. This proposal for a supplementary Commission delegated regulation was adopted by both the Council (EU) and the European Parliament and published in the Official Journal on July 15, under ref. 2022/1214. It shall enter into force in January 2023. Subsequently, in December 2022, the European Commission published documents on the interpretation of certain technical criteria from this supplementary delegated regulation.

Revision of the Industrial Emissions Directive

On April 5, the European Commission presented a proposal to revise the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED), which addresses pollution prevention and control for large industrial installations. It aims to stimulate investment in industry to transform to a climate neutral economy, with the first new obligations for industry expected in the second half of the decade. The new rules will apply to more relevant emission sources than under the existing similar IED. There will be changes in integrated authorization, where instead of settling for the least demanding best Available Technology (BAT) limits, administrations will have to assess the feasibility of achieving best performance. The rules for granting exemptions and their regular review will also be reinforced. An alternative to permits based on established BAT will be the possibility for leading producers to test new technologies and make use of more flexible permits. In order to achieve the EU's 2050 zero pollution, circular economy and decarbonization ambitions, operators will have to develop transformation plans for their facilities by 2030 and 2034 respectively. Investments in the industrial sector in the circular economy will be encouraged. Energy efficiency will be an essential part of the integrated permit and technological and investment synergies between decarbonization and pollution will be systematically considered in the BAT determination. The proposal is currently being discussed in the EU Council and the European Parliament. Adoption of the position papers is expected in H1 2023.

Regulation of the Wholesale Market for Electricity, Natural Gas, and Commodity Derivatives

The European Union regulates wholesale energy markets. Regulation (EU) No. 1227/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of October 25, 2011, on wholesale energy market integrity and transparency (REMIT) has been in force since December 28, 2011, putting market participants under an obligation to publicly disclose certain inside information on the participant's undertaking in an effective and timely manner, not to use abusive practices in trading, and to register their undertaking in a register of participants and report transactions in a wholesale energy market. CEZ Group discloses such information on a specialized information portal run by the EEX at www.eex-transparency.com/power/cz/ production/capacity. The disclosure concerns all CEZ Group facilities in Czechia. Information on resources belonging to CEZ Group in Poland is centrally available at http://gpi.tge.pl/ en/zestawienie-ubytkow. In compliance with REMIT, CEZ Group has also been notifying of bilateral transactions entered into outside organized markets since April 2016 (transactions made in organized markets are disclosed directly by those markets).

Pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 648/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council on OTC derivatives, central counterparties, and trade repositories (EMIR), which aims to mitigate risks arising from trading in OTC derivatives, ČEZ calculates its open derivative OTC position. It has also been reporting all commodity, interest rate, and currency derivative transactions with financial settlement to a trade repository since February 2014. ČEZ chose REGIS-TR for discharging these obligations. CEZ Group has also established rules and introduced measures to prevent market abuse pursuant to Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council on market abuse (hereinafter referred to as the MAR) and Directive 2014/57/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on criminal sanctions for market abuse. MAR is an equivalent of REMIT aimed to prevent abuse of the market in financial instruments, which include some commodity derivatives linked to electricity, gas, coal, and emission allowances. Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial instruments (MiFID II) entered into effect in January 2018 and was transposed to Czech law through Act No. 256/2004 Coll., on capital market undertakings. From this date and then in Q1 of each subsequent year, ČEZ, a. s., carries out an annual complementarity test and informs the Czech National Bank, that it would take advantage of exemption from authorization for the provision of main investment services under Section 4b(1)(j) as a person, including market makers, dealing on its own account in commodity derivatives or emission allowances or derivatives thereof.

Czechia

Legislation in Czechia

In 2022, the following acts were adopted:

  • The first amendment to the Energy Act was introduced by Act No. 176/2022 Coll. This amendment mainly regulated the institute of supply of last resort and introduced the legal obligation to use the storage capacity of gas storage facilities and to set the procedure in case of non-compliance with this obligation. This act has been in effect since June 27, 2022.
  • The second amendment to the Energy Act was made by Act No. 232/2022 Coll. This amendment introduced the legal regulation of the cost recovery allowance for electricity and gas, the cost recovery allowance for heat, and the introduction of the gas emergency. As part of the amendment to the Supported Energy Sources Act, the amendment specified the method of payment for electricity support in the settlement period if the distribution system service price component and the transmission system service price component for electricity support changed during the settlement period. This act has been in effect since August 10, 2022.

  • The third amendment to the Energy Act was introduced by Act No. 287/2022 Coll. This amendment established a new institute in the energy sector—an extraordinary market situation on the electricity or gas market. Under this exceptional market situation, the Czech government may, by decree, determine the prices of electricity or gas supplied to customers or other participants in the electricity or gas market and other rights and obligations of electricity or gas market participants related thereto. This act has been in effect since October 1, 2022.

  • The fourth amendment to the Energy Act was made by Act No. 365/2022 Coll. This is based on Council Regulation (EU) 2022/1854 of October 6, 2022, on emergency intervention to address high energy prices. As part of this change, another new institute in the energy sector was introduced—a levy on excess revenues from the sale of electricity generated in Czechia and delivered to the electricity grid with the exception of balancing energy. This act has been in effect since December 1, 2022.
  • The Supported Energy Sources Act has been further amended by Act No. 143/2022 Coll. This amendment specifies the methods of proving compliance with sustainability criteria and greenhouse gas emission savings. The act has been in effect since June 9, 2022.
  • Act No. 195/2022 Coll., amending Act No. 283/2021 Coll., the Building Act, entered into force on June 30, 2022. The object of the amendment was primarily to postpone the entry into force of the new Building Act (No. 283/2021 Coll.) for buildings not authorized by the Specialized and Appellate Building Authority by one year to July 1, 2024. For buildings that will be authorized by the Specialized and Appellate Construction Authority, the effective date of July 1, 2023, was maintained. In addition to this postponement, the subject of the amendment was also to abolish the independent state construction administration with a central body in the form of the Supreme Construction Authority (which has not even been established yet). Consequently, constructions that will not be permitted by the Specialized and Appellate Construction Authority will remain under the responsibility of the construction authorities in the existing mixed model of state administration, i.e., in delegated competence to municipalities. This act has been in effect since July 1, 2022.
  • Act No. 241/2022 Coll., amending Act No. 106/1999 Coll., on free access to information (the Information Act), entered into force on September 1. Among other things, the amendment introduced a new category of obliged entity, the so-called public undertaking. Selected CEZ Group companies that meet the definition of a public undertaking proceed in handling requests for information in accordance with the Information Act, including the fulfillment of related information obligations.
  • On December 2, Act No. 366/2022 Coll. came into force, introducing the windfall tax of 60% into the Income Tax Act as a tax surcharge on excessive profits. In the energy sector, this tax obligation will apply, among other things, to generators and operators of electricity and gas systems who have decisive income for the windfall tax of at least CZK 50 million. The Act amending the Income Tax Act has been in effect from January 1, 2023.
  • Act No. 374/2022, amending the Consumer Protection Act and the Civil Code, entered into force on December 7. The amendment strengthens the position of consumers, introduces new rules for telephone and door-to-door contracts, and establishes a new type of contract for digital content provision. The act has been in effect since January 6, 2023.

In addition, the following implementing legislation was adopted in 2022:

  • On March 24, Decree No. 68/2022 Coll. of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic on upgrading a supported electricity generation facility and procedures for modifying electricity generation facility equipment came into force.

Market Coupling

sníži

On June 8, 2022, the Core Flow-Based Market Coupling project was launched to implement the coupling of daily markets using the physical flow-based method of capacity calculation (Flow-Based method) across the entire core region for capacity calculation. This means interconnecting daily markets across the entire core region, which includes the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czechia, France, Germany, Hungary, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

The international platforms PICASSO (on June 1) and MARI (on October 5) were also launched for the joint purchase of balancing energy. In addition to the Czech ČEPS, the transmission system operators of Germany and Austria have also joined these platforms, thus ensuring access to these markets. At the same time, there is a prospect of other EU countries joining these platforms during 2023. This will enable optimal provision of regulating energy.

Germany

On July 7, 2022, the Bundestag passed a comprehensive amendment to the EEG (Erneuerbare Energien Gesetz)—one of the biggest changes to energy policy in decades. The existing 2021 EEG was replaced by the new 2023 EEG which came into force on January 1, 2023. However, individual measures were already implemented earlier. Currently, all new 2023 EEG regulations are still subject to approval by the European Commission under the act on state aid. Under the Investment Acceleration Act, time limits for appeals against permits under the Immission Control Act were tightened and delays caused by lawsuits and appeals against permits were reduced. The Federal Immission Control Act also introduced facilitations relating to onshore wind repowering projects. The expansion of renewable energy will be greatly accelerated with the new 2023 EEG. As early as 2030, at least 80% of the electricity consumed in Germany is to come from renewable energy sources. 2023 EEG creates the necessary framework conditions for this to happen.

According to the 2023 Renewable Supported Energy Sources Act, the installed capacity of onshore power plants should reach 115 GW by 2030 and a further 30 GW should be connected to the grid in the form of offshore power plants.

The Bundestag adopted the third amendment to the Energy Security Act (EnSiG 3.0—Gesetz zur Sicherung der Energieversorgung 3.0). Its purpose is to increase RES generation in the short term and to ensure an increase in the capacity of the transmission system in order to reduce the consumption of natural gas in winter. According to this amendment, for example, the maximum tender size for all auctions of photovoltaic power plants in 2023 will be increased from 20 MW to 100 MW, and operators of wind power plants may exceed the limits of the technical guidelines for noise abatement (TA-Lärm) by 4 dB until March 31, 2023. On December 15, 2022, the Bundestag approved the regulation of natural gas, district heating, and electricity prices for residential customers, companies, and large industrial enterprises. The measure, for which Germany has set up a fund of up to EUR 200 billion, will run from January 2023 until the end of April 2024. At the same time, a windfall tax on profits from the sale of generated electricity was approved. The design of the tax varies depending on the electricity generation technology. This measure entered into force on December 1, 2022, and should apply until June 30, 2023 (it can then be extended until April 30, 2024).

Poland

Following the latest amendment to the Energy Act, the obligation to sell all energy generated by domestic power plants through the TGE (Polish Power Exchange) was abolished with effect from December 6, 2022. It is now up to the energy generators whether to sell the generated electricity through the power exchange or on the off-exchange market. On November 4, a new special act on extraordinary measures to limit electricity prices and support selected consumers came into force in 2023. The new provisions fundamentally affect the profitability of electricity generators and traders. From December 1, 2022, to December 31, 2023, most energy generators and all electricity traders are obliged to pay a monthly contribution to the price difference compensation fund. Detailed rules for the settlement are set out in a supplementary regulation on the method of calculating the price cap adopted by the government in November 2022. The maximum electricity price applied under the new legislation is 693 PLN/MWh (for all residential customers) and 785 PLN/MWh for micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises. The act provides for compensation for energy companies above these thresholds. According to the impact assessment, the total cost of the act in terms of compensation for eligible beneficiaries is estimated at around PLN 20 billion (over CZK 100 billion).

On the basis of the act of September 15 on extraordinary measures for selected heat sources in connection with the fuel market situation, the maximum heat price is also in force until the end of April 2023. The act distinguished two price limits for heat generated in natural gas or fuel oil plants and for heat generated in all other plants. The support system is also subject to a compensation system for generators who apply higher than the mandatory maximum prices.

The heat tariff regulation has been amended several times in 2022. Most recently, in October 2022, cogeneration generators were allowed to increase their heat tariff. On November 28, amendments to the decree on fuel stocks maintained by energy generators came into force. The main consequence of this change is a significant increase in the mandatory reserves maintained by energy generators.

Factors Limiting the Use of Existing Assets

The influence of climate-related global goals and ambitions on operation of power plants has been increasing. They also have a major impact on energy sector transition. In the context of legislation and regulation promoted by both Czechia and the European Union, declared to fight climate change, it cannot be completely excluded that use of some assets or groups of assets of CEZ Group will be fundamentally restricted in the future or prematurely terminated. CEZ Group has identified the following key factors restricting the use of the existing assets:

Greenhouse emission allowance market in Europe—there is an apparent effort of the European Union to influence the market with these allowances, e.g., by introducing a market stability reserve (MSR), decreasing of the total number of emission allowances or their managed releasing in the market (back-loading); the obligation to purchase allowances extends to other industries (already in this decade, CO2 savings will have to be realized in industry, which are considerably more expensive than in the energy sector and also in road and maritime transport or heating of buildings); the growing decarbonization efforts provide long-term price increasing stimulus for CO2 emission allowances; this results in a major economic pressure especially on older and less efficient coal-fired power plants and heating plants or facilities generally, costs of which are tied to the price of emission allowances.

  • Increasingly ambitious climate targets—the European Commission published the European Green Deal in 2019, which, among other things, increases the target for reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and presents the target for a full decarbonization of Europe (the target for reducing emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 was increased to 55%); then the European Commission came up with the Fit for 55 package in 2021 and in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine with the REPowerEU measure, proposing a target for the share of RES in total final consumption of 40% (EU Council proposal) by 2023; or 45% (European Commission proposal); the Coal Commission (an advisory body of the Czech government established in 2019) has so far recommended 2038 as the latest date for the use of coal in Czechia, but the current cabinet envisages creating conditions for ending the use of coal as early as 2033 in its program statement.
  • Due to phasing out of Russian gas in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it can be expected that the long-term cheap Russian pipeline gas will no longer be available and will be replaced by Norwegian pipeline gas and LNG; in the long term, the price of gas can be expected to increase compared to the prices of the last decade, which may make gas sources less competitive on the market.

Assets of mining company and coal-fired and gas generating assets of CEZ Group are most significantly impacted by these trends. CEZ Group's strategy has expected these developments for a long time. Therefore, measures and strategic steps have been implemented on an ongoing basis with a view to minimizing negative impacts of these factors on the value of CEZ Group and—at the same time—to use the opportunities for CEZ Group related to these trends to the maximum possible extent. Therefore, CEZ Group participated in the opening of the first LNG terminal in 2022, in which Czechia has reserved capacity. This is a long-term contract for 5 years, which will cover approximately one third of the annual gas consumption in Czechia. The purchase of capacity in the LNG terminal is one of the next steps towards getting rid of energy dependence on Russia.

2. Role of the Controlled Entity

sníži

ČEZ, a. s., is the controlling company of CEZ Group. The core business as well as the role of companies within CEZ Group is the generation, distribution, trade in, and sales of electricity and heat, trade in and sales of natural gas, and coal extraction. ČEZ, a. s., is a crucial state-controlled energy company. Its primary role is to ensure safe and reliable fulfillment of the energy needs of its customers and society at large.

ČEZ, a. s., also intermediates the Controlling Entity's control over the other companies within CEZ Group.

3. Method and Means of Control

The Controlling Entity controls ČEZ, a. s., by being its majority shareholder and thus holding a majority share in voting rights. Because of its share in voting rights, the Controlling Entity can enforce the appointment or removal of most members of the supervisory and/or statutory governing body of ČEZ, a. s.

4. List of Acts pursuant to Section 82(2)(d) of the Business Corporations Act

In the relevant period, ČEZ, a. s., did not perform any acts that would have been performed at the instigation or in the interest of the Controlling Entity or entities controlled by it and concerned assets exceeding 10% of the equity of ČEZ, a. s., as identified by its financial statements for the accounting period immediately preceding the accounting period for which the Related Parties Report is prepared.

7. Conclusion

Based on available information, the Board of Directors of ČEZ, a. s., assessed the advantages and disadvantages arising from the position of ČEZ, a. s., as described above and came to the conclusion that ČEZ, a. s., did not derive any special advantages and/or disadvantages or material risks from its position, especially with respect to minimum links with other entities controlled by the Controlling Entity due to their significantly different core business. After careful consideration, the Board of Directors of ČEZ, a. s., declares that it is not aware of any risks resulting from relations between the above entities against which standard safeguards would not be in place.

Having analyzed and taken into consideration the circumstances and terms and conditions under which dealings between related parties occurred in the relevant period (that is, terms and conditions common in standard business relations), the Board of Directors of ČEZ, a. s., then came to the conclusion that ČEZ, a. s., did not suffer any loss as a result of its control.

1. The Company

sníži

ČEZ, a. s. (ČEZ or the Company), company reg. No. 45274649, is a Czech Republic joint stock company, owned 69.8% (69.9% of voting rights) at December 31, 2022 by the Czech Republic represented by the Ministry of Finance. The remaining shares of the Company are held by legal persons and individuals and they are traded on stock exchange markets in Prague and Warsaw. The address of the Company's registered office is Duhová 2/1444, Praha 4, 140 53, Czech Republic.

The Company is a parent company of the CEZ Group (the Group, see Note 9). CEZ Group is a vertically integrated energy group that is among the largest economic entities in the Czech Republic and Central Europe. The main business of the Group is the generation, distribution, trade and sale in the field of electricity and heat, coal mining, trading in commodities and providing of complex energy services, distribution, trade and sale in the field of natural gas and providing of telecommunications services.

The main point of the Group's value relates to emission-free mainly nuclear electricity generation and to the distribution and sale of electricity and heat in the Czech Republic. CEZ Group supplies energy and modern energy solutions to millions of customers in the Czech Republic, Germany, Poland and Slovakia. Outside Central Europe, it operates mainly in France, Italy, the Netherlands and Austria. The average number of employees of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the consolidation was 27,372 and 28,697 in 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The CEZ Group's business environment is significantly affected by regulation and legislation at the level of the European Union and in the individual countries in which the CEZ Group operates. Responsibility for public administration in the energy sector is exercised by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Energy Regulatory Office and the State Energy Inspection Board.

The "VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow" strategy is focused on the dynamic transformation of the generation portfolio to low-emission one and the achievement of full climate neutrality already by 2040. The strategy includes a commitment to end the generation of heat from coal and fundamentally limit the generation of electricity from coal by 2030. In areas of distribution and sales, the basic goal is to provide the most advantageous energy solutions and the best customer experience on the market.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2.1. Financial Statements

These consolidated financial statements of the CEZ Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU).

The financial statements are based on a historical cost approach, except where IFRS require a different measurement basis as disclosed in the description of accounting policies below.

Explanation Added for Translation into English.

These financial statements represent a translation of financial statements originally issued in Czech.

2.2. Consolidation Method

2.2.1. Group Structure

The consolidated financial statements of the CEZ Group include data of ČEZ, a. s., and its subsidiaries, associates and joint-ventures included in the consolidation unit (see Note 9).

2.2.2. Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries included in the consolidation unit are those entities which the CEZ Group controls. The Group controls an investee if, and only if, the Group:

  • Has power over the investee (i.e., the Group has existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the activities of the entity that significantly affect its revenues)
  • Is exposed to risk associated with or entitled to variable returns from its involvement with the investee
  • Is able to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the Group's returns

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. To support this presumption and when the Group has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

  • The contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee
  • Rights arising from other contractual arrangements
  • The Group's existing voting rights and potential voting rights

Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group and are no longer consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of a business combination is the sum of the consideration transferred, measured at fair value at acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the acquirer measures the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the proportionate share of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are recognized directly in profit or loss.

When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the financial assets and liabilities assumed for appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions as at the acquisition date. Among other things, the Group considers the separation of embedded derivatives from host contracts.

If the business combination is achieved in stages, the Group, as the acquirer, remeasures, through profit or loss, previously held equity interests in the acquiree to fair value at the acquisition date.

Any contingent consideration is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration which is deemed to be an asset or liability are recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 either in profit or loss or as a change to other comprehensive income. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured.

Goodwill is initially measured at cost being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognized for non-controlling interest over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If this consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired ("bargain purchase gain"), then the Group first reassesses the identification and measurement of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities and the measurement of the cost of the combination. Any excess remaining after the reassessment is recognized immediately in the income statement and is presented in the line Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without loss of control, is accounted as an equity transaction.

Losses within a subsidiary incurred are attributed to the non-controlling interest even if that results in a deficit balance.

Put options held by non-controlling interests are recorded as a derecognition of non-controlling interest and recognition of a liability at the end of the reporting period. The liability is recognized at the present value of the amount payable on exercise of the option. Any difference between the amount of non-controlling interest derecognized and this liability is accounted for within equity. Subsequent changes to the present value of liability are recorded directly in equity.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless transaction indicates impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed, where necessary, to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the CEZ Group.

2.2.3. Associates

Associates are entities over which the Group generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which the Group has significant influence, but which it does not control. Investments in associates are included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under this method the Group's share of the post-acquisition profits or losses of associates is recognized in the income statement. The Group's share of other post-acquisition movements in equity of associates is recognized in other comprehensive income against the cost of the investment. Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in the associates. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. The Group's investment in associates includes goodwill (net of accumulated impairment losses) on acquisition.

When the Group's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does not recognize further losses. In such a case, the Group recognizes its full share on profit or loss and its share on other comprehensive income only to the extent to recognize nil interest in an associate. This amount is included in the item Translation differences – associates and joint-ventures in the statement of comprehensive income, then the Group discontinues of using equity method of accounting. However, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized on the balance sheet in the item Other long-term liabilities or in the item Provisions, after the Group's interest is reduced to zero, only to the extent that the Group has incurred legal or constructive obligations (e.g., provided guarantees) or made payments on behalf of the associate. If the associate subsequently reports profits, the Group resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized.

2.2.4. Joint-ventures

sníži

A joint-venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to its net assets. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The considerations made in determining significant influence or joint control are similar to those necessary considerations to determine control over subsidiaries. The Group recognizes its interest in the joint-venture using the equity method of accounting (see Note 2.2.3).

The financial statements of the joint-venture and parent company are prepared as of the same date. Adjustments are made where necessary to bring the accounting policies into line with those of the Group. Unrealized gains and losses on transactions between the Group and joint-ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group's interest in those joint-ventures. Losses on transactions are recognized immediately if the loss provides evidence of a reduction in the net realizable value of current assets or an impairment of the asset.

2.2.5. Transactions Involving Entities under Common Control of Majority Owner

Acquisitions of subsidiaries from entities under common control are recorded using a method similar to pooling of interests.

The assets and liabilities of the acquired subsidiaries are included in the Group's consolidated financial statements at their book values. The difference between the cost of acquisition of subsidiaries from entities under common control and the share of net assets acquired in book values is recorded directly in equity.

2.3. Changes in Accounting Policies

2.3.1. Adoption of New IFRS Standards in 2022

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for as follows. The Group has adopted the following new or amended standards and interpretations endorsed by EU as of January 1, 2022:

IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (Amendments)

By applying those IASB amendments the Group is prohibited from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from the sale of items produced by this asset before it is put into use. Instead, a company recognizes such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss. The application of those amendments did not have significant impact to the Group's financial statements.

IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (Amendments)

The amendments specify which costs a company includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether a contract is onerous. The amendments clarify that it is necessary to evaluate full costs directly attributable to the fulfilling of onerous contracts (not incremental costs). By applying of those amendments, the Group disclosed the provision for onerous contract at the company CEZ Skawina S.A. in the amount of CZK 342 million. Consistently with IAS 37, the cumulative effect of the application of those amendments was booked to the opening balance of equity as of January 1, 2022.

IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Amendments)

The target of those amendments is to update a reference in IFRS 3 to the previous version of the IASB's Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting to the current version issued in 2018 without significantly changing the accounting requirements for business combinations. The application of those amendments did not have significant impact to the Group's financial statements.

Annual Improvements 2018–2020 make minor amendments to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 41 Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 Leases. The application of those amendments did not have significant impact to the Group's financial statements.

2.3.2. New IFRS Standards and IFRIC Interpretations either not yet Effective or not yet Adopted by EU

The Group is currently assessing the potential impacts of the new and revised standards and interpretations that will be effective or adopted by the EU from January 1, 2023 or later.

IFRS 17: Insurance Contracts

This standard was originally supposed to be binding from the accounting period beginning January 1, 2021. The IASB on its session in March 2020 decided to postpone the binding validity from January 1, 2023. Earlier application of the standard is permitted under the condition that the entity also applies IFRS 9 Financial Instruments on or before the date it first applies IFRS 17. This is a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering recognition and measurement, presentation and disclosure. IFRS 17 applies to all types of insurance contracts issued, as well as to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretional participation contracts. The Group does not conclude contracts in scope of IFRS 17 and therefore the Group does not expect any significant impact of this standard to the Group's financial statements.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments) The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments provide guidance on application of materiality judgements to accounting policy disclosures. In particular, the amendments to IAS 1 replace the requirement to disclose 'significant' accounting policies with a requirement to disclose 'material' accounting policies. Also, guidance and illustrative examples are added in the Practice Statement to assist in the application of the materiality concept when making judgements about accounting policy disclosures. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments) The amendments become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted and apply to changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates that occur on or after the start of that period. The amendments introduce a new definition of accounting estimates, defined as monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty, if they do not result from a correction of prior period error. Also, the amendments clarify what changes in accounting estimates are and how these differ from changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

IAS 12 Income Taxes: Deferred Tax Related to Assets and Liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction (Amendments) The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments narrow the scope of and provide further clarity on the initial recognition exception under IAS 12 and specify how companies should account for deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction, such as leases and decommissioning obligations. If the payments that settle the liability are deductible for tax purposes, it depends on the assessment of the relevant tax legislation whether they will be attributable for tax purposes to the liability or to the related asset component. Under the amendments, the initial recognition exception does not apply to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. It only applies if the recognition of a lease asset and lease liability (or decommissioning liability and decommissioning asset component) give rise to taxable and deductible temporary differences that are not equal. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted, and will need to be applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8. The objective of the amendments is to clarify the principles in IAS 1 for the classification of liabilities as either current or non-current. The amendments clarify the meaning of a right to defer settlement and defines the requirement for this right to exist at the end of the reporting period. The amendments also specify that management's intention or counterparty's option do not affect current or non-current classification of the liability, which would result in the settlement by the transfer of the entity's own equity instruments. Also, the amendments specify that only covenants with which an entity must comply on or before the reporting date will affect a liability's classification. Additional disclosures are also required for non-current liabilities arising from loan arrangements that are subject to covenants to be complied with within twelve months after the reporting period. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted. The amendments are intended to improve the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction in IFRS 16, while it does not change the accounting for leases unrelated to sale and leaseback transactions. In particular, the seller-lessee determines 'lease payments' or 'revised lease payments' in such a way that the seller-lessee would not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. Applying these requirements does not prevent the seller-lessee from recognizing, in profit or loss, any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of a lease. A seller-lessee applies the amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application, being this the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity first applied IFRS 16. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

Amendments in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint-ventures: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint-venture

The amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint-venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB postponed the effective date of those amendments indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the Group's financial statements.

The Group does not expect early adoption of any of the above-mentioned standards, improvements or amendments.

2.3.3. Change of Reported Data for 2021 Year-end

The Group adjusted a final recognition of the acquisition of the companies of Belectric Group, specifying the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquisition as at the acquisition date of December 16, 2021.

Quantification of the above-mentioned relevant effect on reported amounts as at December 31, 2021 is provided by the following table (in CZK millions):

Total current liabilities 758,996 35 759,031
Total equity and liabilities 1,182,922 159 1,183,081

2.4. Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Group management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date, the disclosure of information on contingent assets and contingent liabilities, and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for a reporting period. Actual results may differ from such estimates. A description of key assumptions for significant estimates is included in the relevant sections of the Notes. The Group makes significant estimates when determining the recoverable amounts of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (see Note 7), accounting for the nuclear provisions (see Note 19.1), provisions for reclamation of mines, mining damages and waste storage reclamation (see Note 19.2), provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants (see Note 19.2), unbilled electricity and gas (see Note 2.6), fair value of commodity contracts (see Notes 2.16 and 17), financial derivatives (see Notes 2.15 and 17), incremental borrowing rate and lease terms to measure lease liability (see Notes 2.28 and 23) and deferred tax calculation (see Notes 2.22 and 34).

The most significant changes in estimates in 2022 related to the provision for nuclear decommissioning and provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants due to updating the amount and scope of decommissioning costs, determining the recoverable amount of financial assets and estimation of expected income tax rate during the years 2023–2025 due to windfall tax.

In 2021, there were significant changes in some estimates in connection with the adoption of the accelerated strategy VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow, which takes into account the EU's decarbonization vision and sets out specific ambitions in the area of social responsibility and sustainable development. The most significant changes in estimates in 2021 concerned the shortening of the expected remaining useful life of coal-fired power plants (see Note 2.9), the determination of the provisions for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants, the shortening of the expected life of coal mining and the related shortening of the expected remaining useful life of mining assets.

2.5. Revenues

Revenue is recognized, when the Group has satisfied a performance obligation and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. The Group recognizes revenue at the amount of estimated consideration (less estimated discounts) that it expects to receive for goods transferred or services provided to the customer.

To apply this basic principle, the Group uses a five-level model:

    1. dentify the contract(s) with a customer,
    1. Identify the performance obligations arising from the contract,
    1. Determine the transaction price,
    1. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations arising from the contract,
    1. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Group recognizes revenue from sales of electricity, heat, gas and coal based on contract terms. Any differences between contracted amounts and actual supplies for electricity and gas are settled through the market operator.

Sales are recognized net of value added tax.

Revenue from the sale of assets is recognized as soon as the delivery takes place and risks and associated benefits, as applicable, are transferred to the buyer.

In the case of construction contracts, where an asset is being created or appreciated for a certain period and the customer controls this asset at the time of its creation or appreciation, revenues are recognized over time. Contract revenues and incurred costs associated with the construction contracts are recognized as revenue and expenses respectively by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity. The percentage of completion is determined as the share of incurred costs to total expected full contract costs. However, if a loss is expected from the contract, it is recognized in full immediately regardless of the percentage of completion of such a construction contract.

Connection fees received from customers and related payments for power consumption and end-user transfers are recognized in income in the period when this performance obligation is satisfied.

Government and similar grants related to income are recognized in the income statement in the period in which the Group recognizes related expenses to be offset by the grant and is presented in the line Other operating income.

2.6. Unbilled Electricity and Gas

The change of unbilled electricity and gas is determined monthly on the basis of an estimate. The estimate of monthly change in unbilled electricity and gas is based on deliveries in a given month after deduction of invoiced amounts and estimated grid losses. The estimate of total unbilled balance is verified by extrapolation of consumption in the last measured period for individual locations. The ending balance of contract assets and liabilities is disclosed net in the balance sheet after deduction of advances received from customers and is included in the line item of Other current assets, net or Other short-term liabilities.

2.7. Fuel Costs

Fuel is recognized as costs when it is consumed. Fuel costs include the depreciation of nuclear fuel (see Note 2.10).

2.8.Interest

The Group capitalizes, as the cost of non-current assets, all interest associated with its investing activities that it would not have incurred if it did not pursue such investing activities. Interest is only capitalized for assets constructed or acquired over a substantial period of time.

2.9. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairments. The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises the purchase price and the related cost of materials and labor and the cost of debt financing used in the construction. The cost also includes the estimated cost of dismantling and removing a tangible asset to the extent specified by IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities, and Contingent Assets. Government grants and similar subsidies received for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment decrease the cost.

Self-constructed property, plant and equipment are measured at the cost of constructing them. Expenditures on the repair, maintenance, and replacement of minor asset items are recognized as repair and maintenance expenses in the period when such repair is carried out. Improvements are capitalized. When an item of property, plant and equipment or a part thereof is sold or disposed of, its cost, relevant accumulated depreciation, and any impairments are derecognized in the balance sheet. Any gains or losses arising from the sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment are included in profit or loss.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are any indicators that an asset may have been impaired. Where there are such indicators of impairment, the Group checks whether the recoverable amount of the item of property, plant and equipment is less than its depreciated cost. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and the value in use. Any impairment of property, plant and equipment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are any indicators that previously recognized impairments of assets are no longer justified or should be decreased. If there are such indicators, the Group determines the recoverable amount of non-current assets. A previously recognized impairment is recognized as an expense only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to estimate the non-current asset's recoverable amount since the last recognition of the impairment. If that is the case, the depreciated cost of the asset including the impairment is increased to the new recoverable amount. The new depreciated cost may not exceed the current carrying amount, less accumulated depreciation, that would be determined had no impairment been recognized in the past. A reversal of previously recognized impairment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

The Group depreciates the cost of property, plant and equipment less their residual value using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment that is significant in relation to the total amount of the asset is recognized and depreciated separately.

The estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment as of December 31, 2022, is determined as follows:

Useful lives
(years)
Buildings and structures 10–60
Machinery and equipment 4–36
Vehicles 4–34
Furniture and fixtures 4–15

Depreciation periods, residual values, and depreciation methods are annually reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. In 2021, the expected remaining useful life of the assets of coal-fired plants was reduced by 7–10 years.

2.10. Nuclear Fuel

sníži

The Group recognizes nuclear fuel as part of property, plant and equipment because the period for which it is used for electricity generation exceeds 1 year. Nuclear fuel is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and, if applicable, impairments. Nuclear fuel includes a capitalized portion of the provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel. The depreciation of nuclear fuel in a reactor is determined on the basis of the amount of energy generated and presented in the statement of income in the line item Fuel and emission rights. The depreciation of nuclear fuel includes additions to the provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel.

2.11. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are measured at costs, including the purchase price and related expenses. Non-current intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which ranges 3–25 years. Amortization periods, residual values, and amortization methods are annually reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. Improvements are capitalized.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are any indicators that a non-current intangible asset may have been impaired (for goodwill see Note 2.12). Non-current intangible assets under development are tested for possible impairment annually regardless of whether there are indicators of possible impairment. Any impairment of non-current intangible assets is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are any indicators that previously recognized impairments of assets excluding goodwill are no longer justified or should be decreased. If there are such indicators, the Group determines the recoverable amount of non-current assets. A previously recognized impairment is recognized as an expense only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to estimate the non-current asset's recoverable amount since the last recognition of the impairment. If that is the case, the amortized cost of the asset including the impairment is increased to the new recoverable amount. The new amortized cost may not exceed the current carrying amount, less accumulated amortization, that would be determined had no impairment been recognized in the past. A reversal of previously recognized impairment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

2.12. Goodwill

Goodwill is initially measured at the amount of the difference between the consideration transferred plus the value of any non-controlling interest and the net amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed (see Note 2.2). Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill relating to associates and joint-ventures is recognized in the balance sheet as part of investments in associates and joint-ventures. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. The recognized goodwill is tested for possible impairment. The test is performed at least once a year or more frequently if there are indicators of possible impairment of goodwill.

As at the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the acquisition. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. Impairment of goodwill is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units, to which the goodwill relates. Where recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Recognized impairment losses of goodwill cannot be reversed in subsequent periods. In the event of a partial sale of a cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated, the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the sold part is included in the gain or loss on sale. The amount of goodwill disposed is measured on the basis of the ratio of the value of the sold part of the cash-generating unit to the value of the part that remains in the ownership of the Group.

2.13. Emission Rights

The greenhouse gas emission right (hereinafter the emission right) represents the right of the operator of a facility that emits greenhouse gases in the course of its operation to release the equivalent of a ton of carbon dioxide to the air in a given calendar year. Operators of such facilities are required to determine and report the amount of greenhouse gases produced by its facilities in every calendar year and this amount must be to be audited by an accredited person. Some Group companies as operators of such facilities were allocated a certain amount of emission rights based on the National Allocation Plan.

The Group is required to remit the number of emission rights corresponding to its actual amount of greenhouse gas emissions in the previous calendar year by no later than April 30 of the next calendar year.

Allocated emission rights are measured at nominal, i.e., zero value in financial statements. Purchased emission rights are measured at cost (except for emission allowances held for trading). The Group makes a provision for covering released emissions corresponding to the difference between the actually released amount of emissions and its inventory of allocated emission rights. The provision is measured primarily at the cost of emission rights that were purchased with the intention of covering greenhouse gas emissions in the reporting period. The provision for released emissions exceeding such rights is measured at the market price effective at the end of the reporting period. Emission rights purchased for use in the next year are recognized as current assets in the line item Emission rights. Emission rights with a later planned time of use are recognized as part of non-current intangible assets.

The Group also purchases emission rights for the purpose of trading. The portfolio of emission rights held for trading is measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period, with any changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading. Emission rights purchased for the purpose of trading are recognized as current assets in the line item Emission rights.

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are any indicators that emission allowances may have been impaired. Where there are such indicators, the Group checks whether the recoverable amount of cash-generating units that the emission rights were allocated to is less than their depreciated cost. Any impairment of emission rights is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Other operating expenses.

Sale and repurchase agreements concerning emission rights are accounted for as collateralized loans.

Allocated green and similar certificates are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently treated similarly to purchased emission rights.

2.14. Classification of Financial Instruments

Financial assets comprise primarily cash, equity instruments of another entity, or a contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset.

Financial liabilities are primarily contractual obligations to deliver cash or another financial asset.

Financial liabilities and assets are presented as current or non-current. Financial assets are classified as current if the Group intends to realize them within 12 months of the end of the reporting period or if there is not reasonable assurance that the Group will hold the financial assets for more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

Financial liabilities are presented as current if they are payable within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. Assets and liabilities held for trade are also presented as current assets and liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the resulting net amount is presented in the balance sheet if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the Group intends to settle on a net basis or to realize the financial assets and settle the financial liabilities simultaneously.

2.14.1. Financial Assets

sníži

Financial assets are classified into the categories of at (a) amortized cost, at (b) fair value depending on whether the financial assets are held for sale or whether they are held under a business model whose objective is to hold the assets to collect contractual cash flows, and at cost.

The Group classifies assets into the following categories:

a) Financial asset measurement at amortized cost

This category comprises financial assets for which the Group's strategy is to hold them to collect contractual cash flows, consisting of both principal and interest. Examples of such financial assets include loans, securities held to maturity, trade receivables.

Expected credit losses, exchange differences, and interest revenue are recognized in profit or loss.

b) Financial asset measurement at fair value through other comprehensive income

This category comprises financial assets where the Group's strategy is both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell the financial assets. This model differentiates between two types of accounting treatment:

– Without future transfer to profit or loss – used for equity financial assets

Impairments are neither calculated nor recognized. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. When a financial asset is sold, no gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss, so it never affects profit or loss. If an equity financial asset is sold, the accumulated revaluation amount is transferred to retained earnings. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income as part of the revaluation amount. Dividends on such financial assets are recognized in profit or loss provided that the payment of such dividends does not reduce the value of the investment.

– With future transfer to profit or loss – used for debt financial assets

Additions to impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a financial asset, the gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss (the gain/loss is transferred from other comprehensive income to profit or loss). Exchange differences in relation to revaluation surplus are recognized in other comprehensive income. Exchange differences in relation to impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss.

c) Financial asset measurement at fair value through profit or loss

A category of financial assets for which the Group's strategy is to actively trade the asset. The collection of contractual cash flows is not the main objective of the strategy. Examples of such financial assets are securities held for trading and non-hedging derivatives. Impairments are neither calculated nor recognized. Changes in fair value and exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Changes in the fair value of financial investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in Other financial expenses or Other financial income.

2.14.2. Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified into two core categories of at (a) amortized cost and at (b) fair value through profit or loss. Classification into those categories is determined analogously to financial assets.

For fair value option financial liabilities, i.e., those measured at fair value through profit or loss, a change in fair value that is attributable to changes in credit risk is presented in other comprehensive income; the remaining amount is presented in profit or loss. However, if the treatment of changes in fair value that are attributable to credit risk created or enlarged an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the entity would present all gains or losses on such a liability in profit or loss.

2.14.3. Derivatives

Derivatives are a special category of financial assets and liabilities. The manner of recognizing gains or losses from the revaluation of derivatives to fair value depends on whether a derivative is classified as a hedging instrument and on the nature of the item being hedged. More information on the reporting of derivatives can be found in Note 2.15.

2.14.4. Impairment of Financial Assets

The impairment of financial assets is based on a model of expected credit losses (ECL), which applies to the following financial assets: a) debt assets at amortized cost (trade receivables, loans, debt securities),

b) debt assets at fair value through other comprehensive income,

c) lease receivables,

d) contract assets and financial guarantee contracts,

e) bank accounts and term deposits.

An impairment analysis of receivables is performed by the Group at each reporting date on an individual basis for significant specific receivables. In addition, a large number of minor receivables are grouped into homogenous groups and assessed for impairment collectively as the individual approach is not applicable here.

The Group accounts for either 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses depending on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (or since the commitment was made or the guarantee was provided). The Group has used a simplified approach for some receivables, under which lifetime expected credit losses are always accounted for.

The portfolio of financial assets is broken down into 3 categories for the purposes of ECL calculation. At the date of initial recognition, financial assets are included in Category 1 with the lowest impairment, which is determined as a percentage of historically unpaid receivables. They are subsequently reclassified as Category 2 and 3 as the debtor's credit risk increases. If a financial asset is bearing interest, interest revenue in Category 3 is calculated from the net amount of the asset.

2.15. Derivatives

The Group uses financial derivatives, such as interest rate swaps and foreign exchange contracts, to hedge risks associated with interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations. Derivatives are measured at fair value. They are recognized as part of non-current and current other financial assets and liabilities in the balance sheet.

The manner of recognizing gains or losses from the revaluation of derivatives to fair value depends on whether a derivative is classified as a hedging instrument and on the nature of the item being hedged.

For hedge accounting purposes, hedging transactions are classified either as fair value hedges where the risk of change in the fair value of a balance sheet asset or liability is hedged or as cash flow hedges where the Group is hedged against the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to a balance sheet asset or liability or to a highly probable forecast transaction.

At the inception of a hedge, the Group prepares documents identifying the hedged item and the hedging instrument used and documenting the risk management objectives and strategy for various hedging transactions. At the inception and throughout the duration of a hedge, the Group documents whether the hedging instruments used are highly effective in relation to changes in the fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

2.15.1. Fair Value Hedging Derivatives

Changes in the fair values of fair value hedging derivatives are recognized in expenses or income, as appropriate, together with the relevant change in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that is related to the hedged risk. Where an adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item is made for a debt financial instrument, the adjustment is amortized in profit or loss over time until the maturity of such a financial instrument.

2.15.2. Cash Flow Hedging Derivatives

sníži

Changes in the fair values of derivatives hedging expected cash flows are initially recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss attributable to the ineffective portion is presented in the statement of income in the item Other financial expenses or Other financial income.

Amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in profit or loss in the period when the expenses or income associated with the hedged items are accounted for.

When a hedging instrument expires or a derivative is sold or it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity remains in equity until the forecast transaction is closed and then recognized in the statement of income. If a forecast transaction is no longer likely to occur, the cumulative gain or loss, originally recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to profit or loss.

2.15.3. Other Derivatives

Some derivatives are not intended for hedge accounting. A change in the fair value of such derivatives is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.16. Commodity Contracts

According to IFRS 9, certain commodity contracts are considered to be financial instruments and accounted for in accordance with the standard. Most commodity purchases and sales carried out by the Group assume physical delivery of the commodity in amounts intended for use or sale in the course of the Group's ordinary activities. Therefore, such contracts (so-called "own-use" contracts) are not within the scope of IFRS 9.

Forward purchases and sales with physical delivery of energy are not within the scope of IFRS 9 as long as the contract is made in the course of the Group's ordinary activities. This is true if all of the following conditions are met:

  • Physical delivery of the commodity takes place under the contract;
  • The amount of the commodity purchased or sold under the contract corresponds to the Group's operating requirements;
  • The contract does not represent a sold option as defined by IFRS 9. In the specific case of electricity sales contracts, the contracts are substantially equivalent to firm forward sales or can be considered sales of generation capacity.

The Group considers transactions entered into with the aim of balancing electricity amounts purchased and sold to be part of an integrated energy group's ordinary activities; therefore, such contracts are not within the scope of IFRS 9.

Commodity contracts that are within the scope of IFRS 9 and that do not hedge cash flows are revalued to fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. The Group presents revenue and expenses related to trading in electricity and other commodities in the statement of income item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading.

Changes in the fair values of commodity contracts that are within the scope of IFRS 9 and that hedge expected cash flows are initially recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss attributable to the ineffective portion is presented in the statement of income in the item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading.

Subsequently, in accordance with the description in Note 2.15.2, amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in profit or loss in the period when the expenses or income associated with the hedged items are accounted for.

When a hedging instrument expires or a commodity contract is sold or it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity remains in equity until the expected transaction is closed and then recognized in the statement of income. If the expected transaction is no longer likely to occur, the cumulative gain or loss, originally recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to profit or loss.

2.17. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, current accounts with banks, and short-term financial deposits with maturity of no more than 6 months.

2.18. Restricted Financial Assets

Cash and other financial assets that are recognized as restricted funds (see Note 4) are intended for the funding of nuclear decommissioning, for mining reclamation and damages, for the restoration and rehabilitation of waste dumps, or are cash guarantees given to counterparties. Such funds are classified as non current assets due to the time at which they are expected to be released for the Group's purposes.

2.19. Contract Assets and Liabilities

Contract asset is the Group's right to a consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Group has transferred to a customer when that right is conditioned on something other than the passage of time (for example, the Group's future performance).

Contract liability is the Group's obligation to transfer goods or provide services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration from the customer.

For work in progress, costs incurred and recognized gains are presented on the balance sheet net of any issued invoices and advances received as an asset or a liability.

Contract assets and liabilities are presented in the line Other current assets, net and Other short-term liabilities.

2.20. Materials and Supplies

Purchased inventories are measured at actual cost, using the weighted average cost method. The costs of purchased inventories include all costs of purchase, including transport costs. Upon use, they are recognized in expenses or capitalized as non-current assets. Work in progress is measured at actual cost. The costs include, primarily, direct material and labor costs. Obsolete inventories are written down using impairments recognized in expenses.

2.21. Fossil Fuel Stocks

Inventories of fossil fuels are measured at actual cost determined on a weighted average cost basis.

2.22. Income Taxes

The amount of income taxes is determined in compliance with the tax regulations of the states of residence of the Group companies and is based on the profit or loss determined in accordance with local accounting regulations and adjusted for permanently or temporarily nondeductible expenses and untaxed income. Income taxes are calculated on an individual company basis as the Czech tax laws do not permit consolidated tax returns. For companies located in the Czech Republic, the current income tax at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was calculated from income before tax in accordance with Czech accounting regulations, adjusted for some items that are nondeductible or nontaxable for tax purposes, using a rate of 19%. The company will be burdened by an increased tax rate, so called windfall tax, in the period of 2023–2025 (see Note 34). During this period, the taxable income of the Company (above the tax base derived from average tax base from 2018–2021 increased by 20%) will be taxed by 60%. Expected tax rate in the Czech Republic from 2026 is 19%.

Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the liability method based on a balance sheet approach. Deferred tax is calculated from temporary differences between accounting measurement and measurement for the purposes of determining the income tax base. Deferred tax is determined using rates and laws that have been enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the deferred tax asset is realized, or the deferred tax liability is settled.

A deferred tax asset or liability is not discounted. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:

  • where the deferred tax liability arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; or
  • in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled by parent company and it is probable that the temporary differences will not be realized in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available in the future against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be claimed, except:

  • when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the reported profit after tax nor taxable profit or loss;
  • in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint-ventures, when it is probable, that the temporary differences will not be reversed and there will not be sufficient taxable profit against which the deductible temporary differences can be applied.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and, if necessary, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities of Group companies are not offset in the balance sheet.

If the current and deferred tax relate to items that are charged or credited directly to equity in the same or a different tax period, the tax is also recognized directly in equity.

Changes in the deferred tax due to a change in tax rates is recognized in profit or loss, except for items charged or credited directly to equity in the same or a different tax period, for which such a change is also recognized directly in equity.

2.23. Long-term Debt

sníži

Debt is initially measured at the amount of proceeds from the issue of the debt, less transaction costs. It is then carried at amortized cost, which is determined using the effective interest rate. The difference between the nominal amount and the initial measurement of debt is recognized in profit or loss as interest expense over the period of debt.

Transaction costs comprise commission paid to advisers, agents, and brokers and levies by regulatory agencies and securities exchanges.

For long-term debt that is hedged with derivatives hedging against changes in fair value, the measurement of hedged debt is adjusted for changes in fair value. Changes in the fair value of such debt are recognized in profit or loss and reported in the statement of income in Other financial expenses or Other financial income. The adjustment to the carrying amount of hedged long-term debt is subsequently recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate.

2.24. Nuclear Provisions

The Group makes a provision for nuclear decommissioning, a provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel and other radioactive waste, and a provision for the funding of subsequent permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel and irradiated reactor components (see Note 19.1).

The provisions made correspond to the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The estimate, expressed at the price level at the date of estimate, is discounted using an estimated long-term real interest rate of 2.0% and 0.3% per annum as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, so as to take into account the timing of expenditure. Initial discounted costs are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment and then amortized for the duration of time for which nuclear power plants will generate electricity. The provision is increased by the estimated inflation and real interest rate annually. Such expenses are recognized in the statement of income in the line item Interest expense on provisions. The effect of the expected rate of inflation is estimated at 2.8% and 2.0% as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The process of nuclear power plant decommissioning is estimated to continue for approximately 50 years after the termination of electricity generation. It is assumed that a permanent repository for spent nuclear fuel will commence operation in 2065 and the disposing of stored spent nuclear fuel at the repository will continue until approximately 2090. Although the Group has made the best estimate of the amount of nuclear provisions, potential changes in technology, changes in safety and environmental requirements, and changes in the duration of such activities may result in actual costs varying considerably from the Group's current estimates.

Changes in estimates concerning the provisions for nuclear decommissioning and permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel resulting from new estimates of the amount or timing of cash flows required to settle these obligations or from a change in the discount rate are added to, or deducted from, the amount recognized as an asset in the balance sheet. Should the amount of the asset be negative, i.e., should the deducted amount exceed the amount of the asset, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.25. Provisions for Decommissioning and Reclamation of Mines and Mining Damages

The Group has recognized a provision for obligations to decommission and reclaim (see Note 19.2). The provision recognized represents the best estimate of the expenditures required to settle the present obligation at the current balance sheet date. Such estimate, expressed at the price level at the date of estimate, are discounted at December 31, 2022 and 2021, using an estimated long-term real interest rate to take into account the timing of payments in amount of 2.0% and 0.3% per annum, respectively. The initial discounted cost amounts are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment and are depreciated over the lives of the mines. Each year, the provision is increased to reflect the accretion of discount and to accrue an estimate for the effects of inflation. These expenses are presented in the income statement on the line Interest on provisions. The effect of the expected rate of inflation is estimated at 2.8% and 2.0% as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Changes in a decommissioning liability that result from a change in the current best estimate of timing and/or amount of cash flows required to settle the obligation or from a change in the discount rate are added to (or deducted from) the amount recognized as the related asset. However, to the extent that such a treatment would result in a negative asset, the effect of the change is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.26. Provision for Demolition and Dismantling of Fossil-fuel Power Plants

The Group has recognized a provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants after their decommissioning (see Note 19.2). The provisions were created in 2021 in connection with the deepening of decarbonization targets at the EU level and in connection with updating the Group's strategy and signing up to accelerate the decarbonization of the generation portfolio within the "VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow". The provision created corresponds to the best estimate of the expenditures required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date. The estimate, expressed in the price level at the date of estimate, is discounted using an estimated real interest rate of 0.8% and (0.4)% per annum as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in order to take into account the timing of expenditures. Initial discounted costs are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment and then depreciated over the period during which coal power plants will generate electricity. The provision is updated annually with regard to the estimated inflation rate and the real interest rate. These expenses are recognized in the statement of income in the line item Interest on provisions. The effect of the expected rate of inflation is estimated at 4.0% and 2.0% as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Although the Group has made the best estimate of the amount of provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants, potential changes in technology, changes in safety and environmental requirements, and changes in the duration of such activities may result in actual costs varying considerably from the Group's current estimates.

Changes in estimates concerning the provision resulting from new estimates of the amount or timing of cash flows required to settle these obligations or from a change in the discount rate are added to, or deducted from, the amount recognized as an asset in the balance sheet. Should the amount of the asset be negative, i.e., should the deducted amount exceed the amount of the asset, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.27. Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources

Expenditures on exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources are charged to expense when incurred.

2.28. Leases

sníži

Determining whether a contract is, or contains, a lease is based on the economic substance of the transaction and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the contractual obligation is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether the contract conveys a right to use the asset.

The Group does not apply the standard IFRS 16 to leases of intangible assets, but the Group has identified contracts for which an intangible asset from a right-of-use have been recognized. These are the cases where the Group acquires the right to place advertising on a building or on other tangible asset.

2.28.1. Group as a Lessee

The Group uses a consistent approach to the reporting and measurement of all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group accounts for future lease payments as lease liabilities and recognizes right-of-use assets that represent a right to use the underlying assets. Lease payments for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

a) Lease Liability

At the commencement date of a lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of the lease payments that are to be made over the lease term. Lease payments comprise fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.

When calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses an incremental interest rate at the commencement date of the lease because the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased by accrued interest and decreased by the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a lease modification, i.e., a change in the lease term, a change in lease payments (e.g., changes in future payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine the amount of the lease payment), or a change in the assessment of the option to purchase the underlying asset.

The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Group would have to pay to borrow, over a similar term and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The Group estimates the incremental interest rate using observable inputs, such as market interest rates.

The Group uses judgment to determine the expected lease term for contracts made for an indefinite time.

b) Right-of-use Assets

The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date when the underlying assets are available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses and adjusted for any reassessment of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets comprises the amount of recognized lease liabilities, initial direct costs, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term or the estimated life of the assets as follows:

Depreciation period
(years))
Lands 2–27
Buildings 2–46
Vehicles, machinery and equipment 3–42
Inventory and other tangible assets 6–17

2.28.2. Group as a Lessor

The Group leases out its tangible assets including own tangibles and right-of-use assets. The Group has classified the leases as financial or operating leases. Operating leases are the leases, in which the Group does not transfer substantially all the risk and rewards incidental to ownership of an assets.

Lease income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included as income in profit or loss due to their operating nature.

For the leases classified as financial leases the Group recognizes net investment in the lease measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term, increased by any unguaranteed residual value of the leased asset at the end of the lease, which is not conditioned by future cash flow. In calculating the present value of net investment in the lease, the Group uses the interest rate implicit in the lease. In the case of a sublease, if the interest rate implicit in the sublease is not readily determined, the Group uses the discount rate used for the head lease.

2.29. Share-based Payments

Members of the Board of Directors and selected managers are in the new long-term bonus program since January 1, 2020 (Note 29). The amount of the bonus is partially based on the value of the Company's shares and it is settled in cash. The expense and related liability are recognized when the services are provided to the Group and in the fair value of the expected cash-settled transactions. The liability is subsequently revalued at fair value for each reporting period and at the settlement date, with any changes in fair value being reported in the relevant period in the statement of income in the line Salaries and wages.

2.30. Treasury Shares

Treasury shares are reported in the balance sheet as an item reducing equity. The acquisition of treasury shares is recognized in the statement of changes in equity as a deduction from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income on the sale, issue, or cancellation of treasury shares. Consideration received is recognized in financial statements as a direct increase in equity.

2.31. Translation of Foreign Currencies

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Czech crowns (CZK), which is the Company's functional and presentation currency. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured and reported using that functional currency.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange differences resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the income statement, except when they arise in connection with a liability classified as effective cash flow hedges. Such exchange differences are recognized directly in equity.

Exchange differences on financial assets are described in Note 2.14.1.

The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange valid at the balance sheet date. The costs and revenues of foreign subsidiaries are translated at average exchange rates for the given year. The exchange differences arising on the retranslation are taken directly to other comprehensive income. On disposal of a foreign entity, accumulated exchange differences are recognized in the income statement as a component of the gain or loss on disposal.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and are translated at the closing exchange rate.

The Group used the following exchange rates to translate assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at December 31, 2022 and 2021:

2022 2021
CZK per 1 EUR 24.115 24.860
CZK per 1 USD 22.616 21.951
CZK per 1 PLN 5.152 5.408
CZK per 1 BGN 12.330 12.711
CZK per 1 RON 4.873 5.023
CZK per 100 JPY 17.152 19.069
CZK per 1 TRY 1.208 1.631
CZK per 1 GBP 27.200 29.585
CZK per 100 HUF 6.015 6.734

2.32. Assets Held for Sale

Assets and disposal groups of assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Assets and groups of assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is considered met only if the sale is highly probable and the asset or group of assets is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Group management must take steps toward the sale of the asset or group of assets so as to complete the sale within one year from the date of the classification of the assets or group of assets as held for sale.

Property, plant and equipment and non-current intangible assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortized.

In 2022 and 2021, the Group performed impairment tests of goodwill and tests of other non-current assets where there was an indication that the carrying amounts could be impaired.

The accounting for the reversal of previously created impairment of tangible and intangible assets of the cash-generating unit of Severočeské doly in 2022 was due to the improvement of market assumptions, especially the increase in prices and demand for coal.

The accounting for the reversal of previously created impairment of term tangible and intangible assets of the cash-generating unit Elektrárna Dětmarovice in 2022 was due to the improvement of market assumptions, in particular the increase in market prices of electricity and the increase in the so-called clean spread (price of electricity minus price of emission right for CO2).

The impairment of tangible fixed assets of the cash-generating unit CEZ Chorzów in 2022 mainly corresponds to new investments in fixed assets that are not recoverable with regard to the update of the value in use. Also, the impairment of tangible fixed assets of the cash-generating unit CEZ Skawina in 2022 mainly corresponds to new investments in fixed assets that are not recoverable with regard to the update of the value in use.

The recognized impairment of tangible assets of the cash-generating unit ÚJV Řež in 2022 occurred as a result of performing a test for possible impairment connected with the indicators resulting from the completed transaction of the partial acquisition of a non-controlling interest.

The recognized impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of cash-generating unit Severočeské doly in 2021 was caused by the unfavorable development of market and regulatory expectations. In particular, there was a significant decrease in the expected demand for lignite in medium term due to a significant increase in market prices of emission rights and a decrease in the expected so-called clean spread (electricity price minus price of CO2 emission rights). Furthermore, the development of regulation and decarbonization goals of the EU and the Czech Republic assumes an earlier termination of mining in the Czech Republic.

The recognized impairment of property, plant and equipment of the cash-generating unit CEZ Chorzów in 2021 was caused mainly by the unfavorable development of market assumptions concerning, in particular, a significant increase in the market prices of emission rights and a decrease in the expected so-called clean spread.

The impairment loss of property, plant and equipment of cash-generating unit Bulgarian distribution in 2021 was recognized with regard to the fact that the assets were classified as held for sale and the contractual sale price was fixed and denominated in EUR (so called "locked box") and the carrying amount of assets being sold and associated liabilities as of the date of sale at July 27, 2021 exceeded the contractual sale price.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Group reported assets of cash-generating units Romanian wind power plants, Romanian distribution, Romanian sale, TMK Hydroenergy Power and CEZ Romania as assets held for sale, while this constitutes a single sale transaction realized on March 31, 2021. The Group determined the total impairment loss of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment of all these cash-generating units as of March 31, 2021 in the amount of CZK 1,145 million with regard to the contractual sale price stated in EUR (arranged as so called "locked box"). The impairment loss was allocated based on relative carrying amounts of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment of the cash-generating units being sold.

The impairment loss of property, plant and equipment of the cash-generating unit Elektrárna Dětmarovice in 2021 was recognized as a result of a test for possible impairment with regard to the expected low profitability of the production source for the remaining life and with regard to the increased value of property, plant and equipment in connection with creation of provision for demolition and dismantling of the plant after its decommissioning.

Description of selected parameters related to testing and determination of recoverable amounts

The impairment test involves determining the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit, which corresponds to the value in use. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from a cash-generating unit and is internally assessed by the company's management.

Values in use are determined based on a complex projection of cash flows or on the medium-term budget for a period of 5 years and on the anticipated development of the expected cash flows in the long-term, which is valid when the impairment test is performed. These budgets are based on the past experience, as well as on the anticipated future market trends and on the macroeconomic development of the respective region.

a. The value in use based on complex projection of cash flows of respective companies for the period covering remaining useful life of tested assets was used for determination of the recoverable amounts of the following cash-generating units:

ČEZ, a. s., generation assets are tested for any possible impairment as a single cash-generating unit with the exception of specific assets, e.g., the CCGT plant in Počerady. Company's cash-generating unit of generation assets is characterized by portfolio management in the deployment and maintenance of various power plants and the cash flows generated from these activities.

As part of testing the recoverable value of fixed assets of the cash-generating unit of ČEZ, a. s., (hereinafter the ČEZ value) we performed a sensitivity analysis of the test results to changes in certain key parameters of the used model – changes in wholesale power prices (hereinafter the EE prices), changes in the discount rate used in the calculation of the present value of future cash flows and changes in CZK/EUR exchange rate.

The development of commodity prices and, in particular, the development of wholesale power prices in Germany (as German power prices have a major impact on the development of wholesale power prices in the Czech Republic) are the key assumptions used for the ČEZ value model. The developments of wholesale prices are primarily determined by the EU political decisions, the development of global demand and supply of commodities and the technological progress.

Developments in EE prices are affected by a number of external factors, in particular changes in the structure and availability of generating facilities in the Czech Republic and its neighboring countries, macroeconomic developments in the region of Central Europe, and energy sector regulation in the EU and Germany. The model is built for a period matching the operating life of generating facilities, which means that its time frame greatly exceeds the period for which commodities, including electricity, are traded in public liquid markets. In addition, there are discussion being held about structural changes in the electricity market ("Market Design") and about substantial sector regulation. So it is very possible that market mechanisms for electricity pricing will be abandoned completely within the lifetime of generating facilities. And it will be introduced alternatively centrally regulated payments for the availability and deliveries of generating facilities.

Due to the long-term nature of the model, the sensitivity of the ČEZ value to developments in electricity prices is also affected by internal factors and assumptions. These are, in particular, generation portfolio deployment varying with different changes in the prices of electricity, emission rights, and variable generation costs and, in the longer term, also with respect to changes in fixed costs reflecting changes in the gross margin of generating facilities.

The sensitivity test results reflect expert estimates of the status and development of the above factors in the period of the model and the status of commercial securing of the generation portfolio as at December 31, 2022.

The test is based on the business plan of CEZ Group for 2023–2027 and on the assumptions of long-term development of relevant electricity prices. The business plan was prepared in the fourth quarter 2022 whereas the plan was based on the active market parameters observed in October 2022 (power prices on EEX energy exchange in Germany, prices on PXE energy exchange in the Czech Republic, price of emission rights, FX rates, interest rates etc.). Electricity contracts traded on EEX are liquid for the period covering the business plan time frame and considering the interconnectedness of German and Czech power transmission grids, makes them a fundamental market indicator for EE prices in the Czech Republic. As part of the sensitivity analysis, the risk scenario of the EE price was defined and this test confirmed the valuation of assets of the Group. For the purpose of sensitivity analysis, the input EE prices, emission rights prices and foreign exchange rates were applied to the relevant opened positions of ČEZ. As part of all tests, it was considered the impact of levy on revenues above price caps of electricity producers, as well as impact of windfall tax for years 2023–2025.

The Company did not recognize any impairment of generation assets in 2022 and 2021. A change of the assumed EE prices as per the models by 1%, while other parameters remain unchanged, has an impact of approximately CZK 9.7 billion on the ČEZ value test result. Future cash flows of the model were discounted using a 6.3% rate. A change of 0.1 percentage point in the discount rate, with other parameters remaining unchanged, would change the ČEZ value by approximately CZK 7.9 billion. A 1% change in the CZK/EUR exchange rate, with other parameters remaining unchanged, would result in a change of approximately CZK 9.3 billion in the ČEZ value. Above mentioned changes in ČEZ value would not lead to an impairment of assets.

The generation sources in Poland – power plants Chorzów and Skawina – also belong among tested non-current assets where cash flow projections covering remaining useful life were used. The discount rate 8.3% was used for CEZ Skawina and the increased discount rate 10.0% was used for CEZ Chorzów.

The discount rate of 5.7% was used for cash-generating unit Energotrans. For testing of Energotrans, the assumptions from "EGT site strategy" were used. The model assumes change in the long-term contract for heat supply to Prague and its prolongation until 2050. The supply of heat by 2028 is expected under assumption of construction from one to three new combined cycle power plants of specific design.

The cash flow projections covering expected remaining useful life, which is estimated at 2030 as at December 31, 2022, were used for determination of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit Severočeské doly. Future cash flows were discounted using increased rate of 7.1%.

The discount rate of 6.3% was used for cash-generating unit Elektrárna Dětmarovice.

b. The value in use derived from the projection of cash flows based on financial budget for a period of 5 years and on the expected future development of cash flows generated from the respective assets was applied when determining the recoverable amount of the following cash-generating units:

The discount rate of 5.3% was used for cash-generating unit Czech distribution. The increase of cash flows beyond the five-year period for Czech distribution is getting from 3.1% towards 2.0% within following five years. Cash flows beyond 10-year period were based on the terminal value of regulatory asset base.

The discount rate of 5.6% was used for cash-generating unit ČEZ Teplárenská. Cash flows beyond five-year period were determined from the expected growth within next ten years about 2.6% and 2.0% thereafter.

The discount rate of 5.9% was used for cash-generating unit Elevion Deutschland Holding. Cash flows beyond five-year period were determined from the expected long-term growth about 2.0%.

The discount rate of 5.9% was used for cash-generating unit Hermos. The increase of cash flows beyond the five-year period for Hermos is getting from 3.4% towards long-term increase 2.0%.

The discount rate of 5.0% was used for cash-generating unit Kofler Energies. Cash flows beyond five-year period were determined from the expected long-term growth about 2.0%.

The discount rate of 6.7% was used for cash-generating unit ÚJV Řež. The increase of cash flows beyond the five-year period is getting from 3.4% towards long-term increase 2.0%.

c. The calculations of value in use for all cash-generating units are most sensitive to the following assumptions:

Gross margins – Gross margins are based on experience from historical trends in the preceding periods, current outlook of market and non-market parameters, eventually with regard to operational efficiency improvements. Gross margins are affected especially by wholesale electricity prices, prices of emission rights and prices of green and similar certificates.

Raw materials price inflation – Estimates are obtained from published indices for the countries from which materials are sourced, as well as data relating to specific commodities. Forecast figures are used if data is available, otherwise past actual raw material price movements have been used as an indicator of future price movements.

Discount rate – Discount rates reflect management's estimate of the risk specific to each unit. The basis used to determine the value assigned is weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of the related subsidiaries.

Estimated growth rate – The basis used to determine the value assigned to estimated growth rate is the anticipated future development of the market, gross domestic product, nominal wages and interest rates and the forecast of regulation.

The development of regulatory environment – Levy on revenues above price caps of electricity producers, as well as impact of windfall tax.

8.2.3. Changes in Non-controlling Interests in 2021

In February 2021, Slovenský plynárenský priemysel, a.s., made a cash contribution to ESCO Slovensko, a. s., thus acquiring a 50% non-controlling interest and the Group's share fell to 50%, while maintaining control. The main strategic intention of ESCO Slovensko, a. s., which owned on the date of transaction shares in 6 Slovak companies invested from ČEZ ESCO, a.s., is the development of decentralized energy and complex energy services in Slovakia.

On June 24, 2021, an agreement was signed that replaced the original contractual relationship between the Group and selected owners of non-controlling interests in Euroklimat sp. z o.o. The original contractual arrangement represented a contingent consideration, so-called earn-out liability, from acquisition of a subsidiary. This agreement related to a 4% interest in Euroklimat sp. z o.o. was replaced by an option to sell the interest to the Group, and therefore it was effectively recognized as a sale of a 4% interest and the put option held by non-controlling interests.

On July 29, 2021, the Group sold a non-controlling 49% interest in the company ČEZ Asset Holding, a. s. In August 2021, the company then changed its name to ENVEZ, a. s.

An overview of basic financial information on these transactions is given in the following table (in CZK millions):

During May and June 2021, within several sub-transactions, the Group acquired a part of the non-controlling interest representing a 26.58% interest in the company OSC, a.s., which increased Group's interest to 93.25%.

In June 2021, there was an additional adjustment to the acquisition price for a 25% non-controlling interest in ENESA a.s., which was acquired in 2018.

An overview of basic financial information on these transactions is given in the following table (in CZK millions):

The Group is a guarantor for the liabilities of companies within the joint-venture with Akcez Enerji Yatirimlari Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. in the amount of USD 67.4 million and TRY 44.9 million as of December 31, 2022 (see Note 18.2). Based on calculation of recoverable amount from future cash flows, a provision in the amount of CZK 1,578 million was recognized as at December 31, 2022. Because the Group's total cumulative share on losses of Akcez group did not exceed the amount of the guarantee provided as at December 31, 2022, the Group recognized its share on losses of Akcez group in full (in the statement of income included in the line Share of profit (loss) from associates and joint-ventures). As at December 31, 2022, the provision in the amount of CZK 1,046 million was recorded on the balance sheet this way including the use and additions to the provision in the previous years and including the unwinding of discount and this amount was increased by CZK 532 million (in the statement of income in the line Impairment of financial assets) in order to arrive to the assumed amount of the provision CZK 1,578 million as at December 31, 2022.

On July 29, 2022, the Company concluded an agreement to sell its 50% share in Akcez Enerji Yatirimlari Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş., which includes three companies engaged in electricity distribution, energy sales and energy services. The settlement of the transaction is, among other things, conditional on the refinancing of Akcez's existing debt by the new co-owners. The transaction was subsequently subject to approval by the Turkish Competion Authority and the local energy regulator.

The Company assessed whether the conditions for classifying the investment as an asset held for sale were met. In view of the fact that refinancing, which is a condition precedent to the realization of the sale, has not yet been bindingly agreed upon, the Group does not report the investment in Akcez as an asset held for sale as at December 31, 2022.

In 2017, the share on losses of joint-venture Akenerji Elektrik Üretim A.S. exceeded the carrying amount of Group's investment in this joint-venture. The Group has made no obligations on behalf of Akenerji Elektrik Üretim A.S., so therefore the Group discontinued of using equity method of accounting as at December 31, 2017 (Note 2.2.3). The amount of unrecognized share of the Group on losses of Akenerji Group amounted to CZK 4,412 million and CZK 4,770 million as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The Group is a guarantor for the liabilities of companies within the joint-venture with Akcez Enerji Yatirimlari Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. in the amount of USD 82.7 million and TRY 55.4 million as at December 31, 2021 (see Note 18.2). Based on calculation of recoverable amount from future cash flows a provision in the amount of CZK 1,907 million was recognized as at December 31, 2021. Because the Group's total cumulative share on losses of Akcez group did not exceeded the amount of the guarantee provided as at December 31, 2021, the Group recognized its share on losses of Akcez group in full (in the statement of income included in the line Share of profit (loss) from associates and joint-ventures). As at December 31, 2021, the provision in the amount of CZK 1,444 million was recorded on the balance sheet this way including the use and additions to the provision in the previous years and including the unwinding of discount and this amount was increased by CZK 463 million (in the statement of income in the line Impairment of financial assets) in order to arrive to the assumed amount of the provision CZK 1,907 million as at December 31, 2021.

The joint-ventures Akcez Enerji Yatirimlari Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. and Akenerji Elektrik Üretim A.S. are formed by partnership of CEZ Group and Akkök Group in Turkey to invest mainly into power generation and electricity distribution projects. The joint-venture Jadrová energetická spoločnosť Slovenska, a. s., is a joint-venture formed by CEZ Group and the Slovak government to prepare the project of building a new nuclear power source in Slovakia. GEOMET s.r.o. is a joint-venture of CEZ Group and European Metals Holdings Limited with the intention to develop a potential lithium ore mining project in Cínovec.

The IAS 29 Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies standard was not applied in 2022 for the Group's investments in Turkish joint-ventures, although in general for the purposes of IFRS reporting for 2022 Turkey is considered to be a country where the conditions for the application of IAS 29 are met. The Group performed calculations and analysis, which taking into account that the Group's investments have a zero value, show that the effects of the application of IAS 29 on the Group's financial statements as at December 31, 2022 would not be significant and costs of calculation of the impacts would exceed the benefits for the users of these consolidated financial statements.

Capital Structure Management

The primary objective of the Group's capital structure management is to maintain its credit rating at an investment grade and a level that is standard in the sector and to maintain a healthy ratio of equity to borrowed capital to support the Group's business and maximize value for shareholders. The Group monitors its capital structure and makes adjustments to it with a view to changes in the business environment.

The Group primarily monitors its capital structure using the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio. Considering the current structure and stability of its cash flows and its development strategy, the Group aims to keep the ratio at 2.5–3.0. The Group also monitors its capital structure using the total debt-to-total capital ratio. The Group aims to keep the ratio below 50% in the long term.

EBITDA comprises earnings before taxes and other expenses and revenues plus depreciation and amortization and impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets less gain (or plus loss) from sales of property, plant and equipment. Total debt comprises long-term debt including the current portion and short-term borrowings. Net debt represents total debt less cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid financial assets. For the purposes of capital structure management, highly liquid financial assets comprise short-term and long-term debt financial assets and short-term and long-term deposits. Total capital is equity attributable to parent company shareholders plus total debt. These calculations always include items relating to assets held for sale, which are reported separately in the balance sheet.

The calculation and evaluation of the ratios is done using consolidated figures (in CZK millions):

17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction, which excludes a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value is determined as a quoted market price or a value obtained on the basis of discounted cash flow models or option pricing models.

The Group uses the following methods and assumptions to determine the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments

The fair value of cash and other current financial assets is deemed to be the carrying amount due to their relatively short maturity.

Securities Held for Trading

The fair value of current equity and debt securities held for trading is based on their market price.

Non-current Debt and Equity Financial Assets

The fair value of non-current debt and equity financial assets that are publicly traded in an active market is based on their quoted market price. The fair value of non-current and equity financial assets that are not publicly traded in an active market is determined using appropriate valuation techniques.

Short-term Receivables and Payables

The fair value of receivables and payables is deemed to be the carrying amount due to their relatively short maturity.

Short-term Borrowings

The fair value of these financial instruments corresponds to the carrying amount due to their short maturity.

Long-term Debt

The fair value of long-term debt is deemed to be the market value of identical or similar instruments, or the measurement is based on current interest rates on debt with the same maturity. The fair value of long-term debt with a variable interest rate is deemed to be the carrying amount.

Derivatives

The fair value of derivatives corresponds to their market value.

Carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of financial assets (except for derivatives) at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows (in CZK millions):

17.1. Fair Value Hierarchy

The Group uses and discloses financial instruments with the following structure according to the manner in which the fair value is determined:

Level 1: Measured at fair value using the market prices of identical assets and liabilities quoted in active markets.

Level 2: Measured at fair value using methods under which significant inputs are directly or indirectly derived from data observable in active markets.

Level 3: Measured at fair value using methods under which significant inputs are not derived from data observable in active markets.

For assets and liabilities that occur regularly or repeatedly in financial statements, the Group reviews categorization in levels of the fair value hierarchy (according to the lowest input level that is significant to the measurement of fair value as a whole) at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there have been any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

In 2022, the fair value of commodity contracts of gas on insufficiently active markets for the whole period of the contract was transferred from level 2 to level 3. There were no transfers between the levels of financial instruments at fair value in 2021.

As at December 31, 2022, the fair value hierarchy was the following (in CZK millions):

The most frequently applied valuation methods use commodity price curves, swap models, present value calculations, and option pricing models (e.g., Black-Scholes, Black-76). The models use various inputs including the forward curves of underlying commodities, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, and interest rate curves.

The following table shows roll-forward of the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value – Level 3, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

1) Transfer of contracts for gas on insufficiently active markets from level 2 as at January 1, 2022.

The main investment in the portfolio Equity financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is 15% interest in the company Veolia Energie ČR, a.s. (Note 5). The company's shares are not traded on any market. Fair value at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was determined using available public EBITDA data and the usual range of EBITDA multiples which corresponds to the purchase price of a 100% stake in a company in transactions observed in the market in the industry in question before adjustment for the amount of debt. The fair value at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was determined using 6 EBITDA multiple and 7 EBITDA multiple, respectively, as the best estimate of the fair value.

Equity financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include investments of the CEZ Group's investment fund in the company Inven Capital, SICAV, a.s. (Note 5). The fair value of the investments included in this portfolio at 31 December 2022 and 2021 was determined by a valuation expert. The determination of fair value takes into consideration, in particular, capital contributions and other forms of financing made by the co-investors recently. In addition, the valuation takes into account further development and eventual subsequent significant events, such as received bids for redemption.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on present value of future cash flows, which the Group expects to pay in connection with the acquisition of the subsidiary and is assessed internally by management. The amount of the payment depends on future financial results of the acquired company.

The liability from put option held by the non-controlling interests is measured as the present value of the amount payable on exercise of the option.

Commodity derivatives measured at fair value in level 3 include cross-border electricity transmission rights (hereinafter referred to as "cross-border capacities") and gas contracts with delivery in regions where the market is not sufficiently active throughout the duration of the contract. Cross-border capacities are sold in auctions organized by auction offices covering transmission system operators or in auctions organized directly by transmission system operators. Cross-border capacities are not traded on an organized market. The fair value of cross-border capacities, which represents an estimate of the expected value of compensation for unused cross-border capacities, takes into account especially the acquisition price of purchased capacities and the forward prices of electricity in the respective countries. The fair value of contracts for the purchase and sale of gas on insufficiently active markets is derived from the nearest active market and the location spread is determined using a valuation model that makes maximum use of available market data.

17.2. Offsetting of Financial Instruments

The following table shows the recognized financial instruments that are offset, or subject to enforceable master netting agreement or other similar agreements but not offset, as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

ČEZ, a. s., trades in derivatives under EFET and ISDA master agreements. The agreements allow mutual setoff of receivables and payables on early termination of contracts. The reason for early termination is the counterparty's insolvency or failure to fulfill agreed contract terms. All agreed contracts are settled financially on early termination. Their mutual setoff is either embedded in a contractual provision of the master agreements or results from the collateral provided. In addition, a CSA (Credit Support Annex) has been signed with several partners, defining the permitted limit of exposure between the partners. When the limit is exceeded, cash is transferred to reduce exposure below an agreed level. The deposited cash is also included in the final offset.

The information about offset of unbilled electricity supplied to retail customers with advances received is included in Note 14 and 22. The information about offset of construction contracts and related billings and advances received is included in Note 14.

Short-term derivative assets are included in the balance sheet in Other current financial assets, net; long-term derivative assets are included in Other non-current financial assets, net; short-term derivative liabilities are included in Other current financial liabilities; and long-term derivative liabilities are included in Other non-current financial liabilities.

18. Financial Risk Management

Risk Management Approach

A risk management system is being successfully developed in order to protect the Group's value while taking the level of risk acceptable for the shareholders. In the Group, the risk is defined as a potential difference between the actual and the expected (planned) developments and is measured by means of the extent of such difference in CZK and the likelihood with which such a difference may occur.

A risk capital concept is applied within the Group. The concept allows the setting of basic cap for partial risk limits and, in particular, the unified quantification of all kinds of risks. The value of aggregate annual risk limit (Profit@Risk) is approved by the Board of Directors based on the Risk Management Committee proposal for every financial year. The proposed limit value is derived from historical volatility of profit, revenues and costs of the Group (the top-down method). The approved value in CZK is set on the basis of a 95% confidence level and expresses a maximum profit decrease, which is the Group willing to take in order to reach the planned annual profit.

The bottom-up method is used for setting and updating the Risk Frames. The Risk Frames include the definition of risk and departments/units of the Group for which the frame is obligatory; definition of rules and responsibilities for risk management; permitted instruments and methods of risk management and actual risk limits, including a limit which expresses the share in the annual Profit@Risk limit.

The main Business Plan market risks are quantified in the Group (EBITDA@Risk based on MonteCarlo simulation in Y+1 to Y+5 horizon). The market risks are actively managed through gradual electricity sales and emission allowances' purchases in the following 6-year horizon, closed long-term contracts for electricity sale and emission allowances purchase and the FX and IR risk hedging in medium-term horizon. In Business Plan horizon, the risk management is also based on Debt Capacity concept which enables to assess the impact of main investment and other activities (incl. the risk characteristics), on expected cash flow and total debt in order to maintain corporate rating.

Since 2021, a new Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme is adopted by the Group to be applied to all group-level significant risks. For this level of risks, the scheme integrates, across the process areas of the whole Group, all decentral risk management activities into one, uniform and centrally coordinated process of the group-level significant risks management, with the use of a software tool.

Risk Management Organization

sníži

The supreme authority responsible for risk management in ČEZ, a. s., is the CFO, except for approval of the aggregate annual budget risk limit (Profit@Risk) which is within the competence of the ČEZ, a. s., Board of Directors. CFO decides, based on the recommendation of the Risk Management Committee, on the development of a system of risk management, on an overall allocation of risk capital to the individual risks and organizational units and he approves obligatory rules, responsibilities and limit structure for the management of partial risks.

The Risk Management Committee continuously monitors an overall risk impact on the Group, including Group risk limits utilization, status of risks linked to Business Plan horizon, hedging strategies status, assessment of impact of investment and other activities on potential Group debt capacity and cash flow in order to maintain corporate rating. Since 2021, it also monitors overviews regarding Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme.

Overview and Methods of Risk Management

The Group applies a unified categorization of the Group's risks which reflects the specifics of a corporate, i.e., non-banking company, and focuses on primary causes of unexpected development. The risks are divided into four basic categories listed below.

1. Market risks 2. Credit risks 3. Operation risks 4. Business risks
1.1 Financial (FX, IR) 2.1 Counterparty default 3.1 Operating 4.1 Strategic
1.2 Commodity 2.2 Supplier default 3.2 Internal change 4.2 Political
1.3 Volumetric 2.3 Settlement 3.3 Liquidity management 4.3 Regulatory
1.4 Market liquidity 3.4 Security 4.4 Reputation

From the view of risk management, the Group activities can be divided into two basic groups:

  • Activities with the unified quantification of the share of respective activity in the aggregate risk limit of the Group (i.e., using specific likelihood, it is possible to objectively determine what risk is associated with an activity / planned profit). These risks are managed by the rules and limits set by the CFO of ČEZ, a. s., based on the recommendation of the Risk Management Committee and, concurrently, in accordance with governing documents of the respective units/processes of the Group.
  • Activities whose share in the aggregate risk limit of the Group has not been quantified so far or for objective reasons. These risks are managed by the responsible owners of the relevant processes in accordance with internal governing documents of the respective units / processes of the Group which are newly also subject to policies defined by Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme since 2021.

For all risks quantified on a unified basis, a partial risk limit is set whose continuous utilization is evaluated on a monthly basis and is usually defined as a sum of the actually expected deviation of expected annual profit from the plan and the potential risk of loss on a 95% confidence interval. The Group's methodologies and data provide for a unified quantification of the following risks:

  • Market risks: financial (currency, interest and stock price) risks, commodity prices (electricity, emission allowances, coal, gas, crude oil), volume (volume of electricity produced by wind power plants)
  • Credit risks: financial and business counterparty risk and electricity, gas and heat end customer risk
  • Operational risks: risks of nuclear and fossil power plants operation in the Czech Republic, investment risks.

The development of the Group's quantified risks is reported to the Risk Management Committee every month through 3 regular reports: – Annual budget risks (annual Profit@Risk limit utilization)

  • Business plan risks (EBITDA@Risk based on MonteCarlo simulation)
  • Debt capacity (actual deviation from the optimal debt within Y+5 horizon, derived from rating agency requirements on debt indicators in order to preserve the ČEZ rating)

18.1. Qualitative Description of Risks Associated with Financial Instruments

Commodity Risks

The development of electricity, emission allowances, coal and gas prices is a key risk factor of the Group's value. The current system of commodity risk management is focused on (i) the margin from the own electricity production sales, i.e., from trades resulting in optimizing the sales of the Group's production and in optimizing the emission allowances position for production (the potential risk is managed on the EaR, VaR and the EBITDA@Risk bases), and (ii) the margin from the proprietary trading of commodities within the whole Group (the potential risk is managed on the VaR basis).

Market Financial Risks (currency, interest and stock price risks)

The development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates and stock prices is a significant risk factor of the Group's value. The current system of financial risk management is focused mainly on (i) the future cash flows and (ii) financial trades which are realized for the purposes of an overall risk position management in accordance with the risk limits (the potential risk is managed on the basis of VaR, EBITDA@Risk and complementary position limits). Own financial instruments (i.e., active and passive financial trades and derivative trades) are realized entirely in the context of an overall expected cash flows of the Group (including operational and investment foreign currency flows).

Credit Risks

With respect to the Group's activities managed on a centralized level, credit exposures of individual financial partners and wholesale partners are managed in accordance with individual credit limits. The individual limits are set and continuously updated according to the counterparty's credibility (in accordance with international rating and internal financial evaluation of counterparties with no international rating).

With respect to the electricity sales to end customers in the Czech Republic, the actual credibility is monitored for each business partner based on payment history (in addition, the financial standing is considered for selected partners). This credibility determines the payment conditions of partners (i.e., it indirectly determines an amount of an approved credit exposure) and also serves to quantify both the expected and the potential losses.

The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk to receivables and other financial instruments as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is the carrying value of each class of financial assets except for financial guarantees. Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Group's risk management department in cooperation with Group's treasury department in accordance with the Group's policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.

In accordance with the credit risk methodology applied to the banking sector per Basel II, every month the expected and potential losses are quantified on a 95% confidence level. It means that the share of all credit risks mentioned above in the aggregate annual Profit@Risk limit is quantified and evaluated.

Liquidity Risks

The Group's liquidity risk is primarily perceived as an operational risk (risk of liquidity management) and a risk factor is the internal ability to effectively manage the future cash flows planning process in the Group and to secure the adequate liquidity and effective short-term financing (the risk is managed on a qualitative basis). The fundamental liquidity risk management (i.e., liquidity risk within the meaning for banking purposes) is covered by the risk management system as a whole. In any given period, the future deviations of the Group's expected cash flows are managed in accordance with the aggregate risk limit and in the context of the actual and the targeted debt/equity ratio of the Group. Other tools used for liquidity risk management are the regularly evaluated Margin@Risk reports and liquidity stress scenario reports, which are mainly used to manage the liquidity risk related to the margin calls requirements. These reports also evaluate the effects of the transactions of the sliding sale of electricity and the purchase of emission rights in the horizon of the next 6 years.

18.2. Quantitative Description of Risks Associated with Financial Instruments

Commodity Risks

The required quantitative information on risks (i.e., a potential change of market value resulting from the effects of risk factors as at December 31) was prepared based on the assumptions given below:

  • the indicator of risk associated with financial instruments is defined as the monthly parametric VaR (95% confidence) which expresses a maximum potential decrease in fair value of contracts classified as derivatives under IFRS 9 (the underlying commodities in the Group's derivative transactions are: electricity, EUA emission rights, gas, coal ARA, Richards Bay, Newcastle and crude oil and crude oil products) on the given confidence level;
  • highly probable forecasted future electricity generation sales with the delivery in the CZ power grid are included in the VAR calculation to reflect the hedging character of significant portion of the existing derivative sales of electricity with delivery in Germany;
  • for the calculation of volatility and correlations (between commodity prices), the SMA (Simple Moving Average) method is applied to 60 daily time series;
  • the source of market data is mainly EEX, PXE and ICE;
  • the indicator VaR illustrates mainly the impact of revaluation of above-mentioned financial instruments to statement of income.

Potential impact of the above risk factors as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Monthly VaR (95%) – impact of changes in commodity prices 4,300 9,298

Currency Risks

sníži

The required quantitative information on risks (i.e., a potential change of market value resulting from the effects of currency risk as at December 31) was prepared based on the assumptions given below:

  • the indicator of currency risk is defined as the monthly VaR (95% confidence);
  • for the calculation of VaR, which is based on volatility and internal correlations of each considered currency, the method of historical simulation VaR is applied to 90 daily historical time series;
  • the relevant currency position is defined mainly as a value of foreign currency cash flows from all contracted financial instruments, from expected foreign currency operational revenues and costs in 2022 and from highly probable forecasted foreign currency revenues, costs or capital expenditures that are being hedged by financial instruments etc.;
  • the relevant currency positions reflect all significant foreign-currency flows of the Group companies in the monitored basket of foreign currencies;
  • the source of market FX and interest rate data is mainly IS Reuters and IS Bloomberg;
  • the indicator VaR illustrates mainly the impact of revaluation of above-mentioned currency position to statement of income.

Potential impact of the currency risk as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Monthly currency VaR (95% confidence) 682 437

Interest Risks

For the quantification of the potential impact of the interest risk was chosen the sensitivity of the interest revenue and cost to the parallel shift of yield curves. The approximate quantification (as at December 31) was based on the following assumptions:

  • parallel shift of the yield curves (+10bp) was selected as the indicator of interest risk;
  • the statement of income sensitivity is measured as an annual change of the interest revenue and cost resulting from the interest-sensitive positions as at December 31;
  • the considered interest positions reflect all significant interest-sensitive positions of the Group companies;
  • the source of market interest rates is mainly IS Reuters and IS Bloomberg.

Potential impact of the interest risk as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
IR sensitivity* to parallel yield curve shift (+10bp) (5)

* Negative result denotes higher increase in interest costs than in interest revenues.

The committed credit facilities available to the Group as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to CZK 50.3 billion and CZK 15.2 billion, respectively. In addition, in December 2022, the Company signed committed loan facility agreement with the European Investment Bank to support financing of the program of renewal and further development of the distribution grid in the Czech Republic up to a total of EUR 790 million, which was not drawn as at December 31, 2022.

18.3. Hedge Accounting

The Group hedges cash flows arising from highly probable future sales of electricity in the Czech Republic. Hedging instruments are futures and forward contracts electricity sales in Germany. The fair value of these derivative hedging instruments amounted to CZK (73,096) million and CZK (77,985) million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The result of this hedging strategy as at December 31, 2022, is that for 2023 approximately 75% of expected generation in the Czech Republic was hedged at an average price of EUR 117 per MWh, for 2024 approximately 47% of expected generation at an average price of EUR 120 per MWh, for 2025 approximately 21% of expected generation at an average price of EUR 129 per MWh and for 2026 approximately 2% at an average price of EUR 97 per MWh.

The Group also hedges cash flows arising from highly probable future revenue in EUR for the purposes of currency and interest risk hedging. The hedged cash flows are expected to occur in 2023–2026. The relevant hedging instruments as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are the EUR denominated liabilities from the issued Eurobonds and bank loans in the total amount of EUR 4.0 billion and EUR 3.3 billion, respectively, and currency forward contracts and swaps. The fair value of these derivative hedging instruments amounted to CZK 2,938 million and CZK (325) million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

In 2022, the Company also hedged selected cash flow connected to purchase of emission rights, to cover its CO2 emission for the year 2022, for the purpose of hedging the currency risk associated with the time difference between the allocation of emission rights and the payment for their purchase. The hedge was made by currency swaps. The accumulated value of change of fair value revaluation, transferred from the equity to the price of emission rights connected with the hedge for purchase of emission rights amounted to CZK 403 million.

In 2022 and 2021, the amounts removed from equity in respect of cash flow hedges were recognized in profit or loss and included in the lines Sales of electricity, heat, gas and coal, Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading, Other financial expenses and Other financial income and on the balance sheet in the lines Intangible assets, net and Emission rights. In 2022 and 2021, the Group recognized in profit or loss the ineffectiveness that arises from cash flow hedges in the amount of CZK (194) million and CZK 284 million, respectively. The ineffectiveness in 2022 and 2021 was primarily caused by the fact that the hedged future cash flows were no longer highly probable and by the volatility of electricity price on Czech / German market and unequal price increase / decrease of the electricity on Czech and German market.

19.1. Nuclear Provisions

The Company operates two nuclear power plants. The Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant comprises four units commissioned for continuous operation in 1985 to 1987. The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant consists of two units that were commissioned for continuous operation in 2002 and 2003. The Nuclear Energy Act sets down obligations for nuclear facility decommissioning and disposal of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel. In accordance with the Nuclear Energy Act, all the nuclear parts and equipment of a nuclear power plant must be disposed of after the end of operation. For the purpose of determining the amount of nuclear provisions, it is estimated that the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant will stop generating electricity in 2047, the Temelín plant in 2062. Studies for the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and for the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant from 2020 assume that the total costs of decommissioning of so-called nuclear island and conventional part of these power plants will reach the amount of CZK 32.2 billion and CZK 24.1 billion, respectively. The Company makes contributions to a restricted bank accounts in the amount of the nuclear provisions recorded under the Nuclear Energy Act. These funds can be invested in government bonds in accordance with legislation. These restricted financial assets are reported in the balance sheet as part of the line item Restricted financial assets, net (see Note 4).

The Ministry of Industry and Trade established the Radioactive Waste Repository Authority (SÚRAO) as the central organizer and operator of facilities for the final disposal of radioactive waste and spent fuel. The SÚRAO operates, supervises and is responsible for disposal facilities and for disposal of radioactive waste and spent fuel therein. The activities of the SÚRAO are financed through a nuclear account funded by the originators of radioactive waste. Contribution to the nuclear account is stated by Nuclear Energy Act at CZK 55 per MWh produced at nuclear power plants. In 2022 and 2021, the payments to the nuclear account amounted to CZK 1,706 million and CZK 1,690 million, respectively. The originator of radioactive waste and spent fuel directly covers all costs associated with interim storage of radioactive waste and spent fuel.

The Group has established provisions for estimated future expenses on nuclear decommissioning and interim storage and permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel in accordance with the principles described in Note 2.24. The following is a summary of the provisions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

The use of the provision for permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel in a current year comprises payments made to the government-controlled nuclear account and the use of the provision for interim storage represents, in particular, purchases of containers for spent nuclear fuel and other related equipment for these purposes.

In 2022, the Company recorded the change in estimated provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel. The change relates to the change in expectations of future storage cost and change in discount rate. The change in estimated provision for nuclear decommissioning is due to the update of the amount and scope of the decommissioning costs for Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and for Temelín Nuclear Power Plant and due to the change in discount rate. The change in estimated provision for long-term spent fuel storage is connected with the modification of the expected output of the nuclear power plants, change of expected contribution to the nuclear account per MWh in future years and change in discount rate.

In 2021, the Company recorded the change in estimate for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel in connection with the change in expectations of future storage cost and change in discount rate, the change in estimate in provision for nuclear decommissioning in connection with the change in discount rate and the change in long-term spent fuel storage in connection with the modification of the expected output of the nuclear power plants, change of expected contribution to the nuclear account per MWh in future years and change in discount rate.

The actual decommissioning and spent fuel storage costs could vary substantially from the above estimates because of new regulatory requirements, changes in technology, increased costs of labor, materials and equipment and/or the actual time required to complete all decommissioning, disposal and storage activities.

The provision for decommissioning and reclamation of mines and mining damages was recorded by Severočeské doly a.s., a mining subsidiary of ČEZ. Severočeské doly a.s. operates open pit coal mines and is responsible for decommissioning and reclamation of the mines as well as for damages caused by the operations of the mines. Current cash expenditures represent cash payments for current reclamation of mining area and settlement of mining damages. Change in estimate represents change in provision as result of updated cost estimates in the current period, mainly due to changes in expected prices of reclamation activities, however, in 2021, the estimate was also changed due to the expected earlier termination of mining and the related earlier expenditure of expected expenses.

In 2022, the Group recorded the change in estimate in provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants due to the update of the amount and scope of the decommissioning costs and due to change in discount rate.

34. Income Taxes

Companies resident in the Czech Republic calculated corporate income tax in accordance with the Czech tax regulations at the rate of 19% in 2022 and 2021.

Pursuant to Act No. 366/2022 Coll. the Company's taxable income is further burdened with an increased tax rate of 60%, so-called windfall tax, starting on January 1, 2023 and lasting until December 31, 2025. It is a component of corporate income tax.

The tax base for windfall tax is the difference between the comparative tax base and the average of the comparative tax bases from years 2018–2021 increased by 20%. The Group plans to use the legal ability to move tax bases within the group of companies with windfall profits.

This increased tax rate affects the calculation of deferred income tax. Tax rates for calculating deferred tax in individual years were calculated as a share of the sum of corporate income tax and windfall tax, where the denominator is the total (compared) tax base.

The estimated effective income tax rates for the calculation of deferred tax in the future years are as follows:

Year 2023 69%
Year 2024 74%
Year 2025 74%
From 2026 and on 19%

Management believes that it has adequately provided for tax liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. However, it cannot be ruled out that the relevant tax authorities may take a different view on issues allowing for different interpretations of the law, which could have an impact on the reported income.

The components of the income tax provision are as follows (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Current income tax charge (20,198) (5,418)
Adjustments in respect of current income tax of previous periods 1) 994 (19)

36. Segment Information

The Group reports its result using four primary reportable operating segments:

  • Generation
  • Distribution
  • Sales
  • Mining

The segments are defined across the countries that CEZ Group operates. Segment is a functionally autonomous part of CEZ Group that forms a separate process part of the value chain of the Group. The structure of the segments has changed since 2022. Some companies, out of which the most significant is ČEZ Teplárenská, were changed from the segment Generation to the segment Sales. The change took place as consequence of the update of the corporate strategy and concept of the heating industry and with regard to the prevailing business activities of these companies. Data by segment for the previous period of 2021 has been adjusted to be comparable.

The Group accounts for intersegment revenues and transfers as if the revenues or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current market prices or where the regulation applies at regulated prices.

In segment reporting, IFRS 16 is applied to external leases from the Group's perspective, but it is not applied to leases between individual operating segments, although in some cases the asset is leased to another segment internally.

The Group evaluates the performance of its segments based on EBITDA (see Note 15). The Group also monitors and evaluates the results of individual segments according to the gross margin indicator, which is defined as follows (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Revenues and other operating income 288,485 227,793
Gains (losses) from commodity derivative trading 41,150 (4,468)
Purchase of electricity, gas and other energies (69,634) (62,669)
Fuel and emission rights (45,409) (24,555)

38. War in Ukraine

sníži

Since February 24, 2022, there has been a military conflict in Ukraine. The Group continuously evaluates the potential impacts, including the effects of the consequent sanctions, that have been imposed on the Russian Federation, and takes adequate measures. The impacts on the Group are significant especially regarding the fundamental effects of the war in Ukraine on the wholesale electricity and natural gas markets, on supplier relations, payments, on macroeconomic developments and on the regulatory measures of states. The biggest challenge was ensuring sufficient liquidity to cover margin calls on the stock exchanges related to the securing of negotiated trades as well as ensuring the supply of nuclear fuel for 2022 and subsequent years and the need to replace Russian suppliers of maintenance services and of development of generation assets.

The ongoing conflict brings significant uncertainty regarding the future prediction of the CEZ Group's financial results. The most significant sources of risks and opportunities for the Group's business in the future include:

    1. High price volatility on the wholesale electricity market, which means a significant increase in liquidity risk.
    1. Limitation or cessation of supplies of natural gas transported by gas pipelines from Russia to Europe, which affects the CEZ Group mainly through impacts on the electricity market, because the CEZ Group does not purchase any gas from Russian entities.
    1. Possibility of unpredictable actions by foreign states in relation to contracted capacities, stored supplies and natural gas transport ways from abroad to the Czech Republic.
    1. Limitation of economic development in Europe.
    1. Influence on political changes consisting in higher regulation or other specific taxation of selected areas of business.
    1. Worsen possibilities and availability of ensuring the maintenance of production facilities and supplies of nuclear fuel with regard to the impact of sanctions and measures limiting the supply of services and materials from selected countries and regions.
    1. Risk of declining customer payment discipline due to rising commodity prices, despite the existence of price caps on electricity and natural gas for end customers, and due to generally high inflation rate.
    1. Risk of an escalation of the military conflict from Ukraine to other countries in Europe, and the associated increase in uncertainty and restrictions on the markets, including the imposition of additional sanctions and measures by the states of the European Union or Russia, which may further limit mutual trade, commodity supplies, transport routes and method of cross-border payments.

The impact of the above-mentioned risks and opportunities on the Group's business in the middle-term cannot be objectively quantified in view of other fundamental factors operating simultaneously (especially the effect of inflation, the effect of the European Green Deal initiative and EU energy sector regulation, political and economic developments in Europe and in the Czech Republic).

39. Commitment and Contingencies

Investment Plans

Capital expenditures for the next five years as at December 31, 2022 are estimated as follows (in CZK billions):

2023 51.4
2024 61.7
2025 69.1
2026 86.7
2027 88.7
Total 357.6

The above mentioned values do not include planned acquisitions of subsidiaries, associates and joint-ventures. From 2025 onwards, they do not include the investments of Elektrárna Dukovany II, where, in accordance with Act No. 367/2021 Coll., on measures for the transition of the Czech Republic to low-carbon energy, it is assumed, that investments will be financed through repayable financial assistance provided to the company Elektrárna Dukovany II, a. s.

The Group reviews regularly investment plan and actual capital expenditures may vary from the above estimates. At December 31, 2022, significant purchase commitments were outstanding in connection with the investment plan.

Insurance Matters

The Nuclear Energy Act sets limits for liabilities for nuclear damages so that the operator of nuclear installations for energy generation purposes is liable for up to CZK 8 billion per incident. The Nuclear Energy Act limits the liability for damage caused by other nuclear installations and activities (such as transportation) to CZK 2 billion. The Nuclear Energy Act also requires an operator to insure its liability connected with the operation of a nuclear power plant up to a minimum of CZK 2 billion and up to a minimum of CZK 300 million for other activities (such as transportation). The Company concluded the above-mentioned insurance policies with company Generali Česká pojišťovna a.s. (representing Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool) and European Liability Insurance for the Nuclear Industry. The Company has obtained all insurance policies with minimal limits as required by the law.

The Group also maintains the insurance policies covering the assets of its coal-fired, hydroelectric, CCGT and nuclear power plants and general third-party liability insurance in connection with main operations of the Group.

40. Events after the Balance Sheet Date

During January and February 2023, the Company concluded credit agreements of the Schuldscheindarlehen type (an unsecured loan funded by private investors governed by German law) in the amount of EUR 330 million. This is the second and third part of drawing loans with two to five-year maturities in order to cover liquidity risks associated with potential peaks in requirements for temporary extraordinary increases in margin calls on energy stock exchanges and towards business trading counterparties.

On February 8, 2023, the Company initiated arbitration proceedings against Gazprom Export LLC by filing an arbitration claim. ČEZ, a. s., claims damages in the amount of around CZK 1 billion as a result of a significant reduction in natural gas supplies in 2022 by Gazprom Export LLC.

These consolidated financial statements have been authorized for issue on March 20, 2023.

The report below is an unsigned translation of an independent auditor's report which relates solely and exclusively to the official annual report prepared in XHTML format dated on 20 March 2023. Signed independent auditor's report relates to the financial statements and official annual report prepared in accordance with the provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European single electronic format ("ESEF Regulation"). The attached annual report is a copy of the official annual report prepared in accordance with the ESEF Regulation and therefore does not constitute a statutory annual report and, as well as this copy of the auditor's report, is therefore not a legally binding document.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Shareholders of ČEZ, a. s.:

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of CEZ Group (hereinafter also the "Group") prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS EU"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2022, and the consolidated statement of income, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of the Group, see Notes 1, 8 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of CEZ Group as at 31 December 2022, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the IFRS EU.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Act on Auditors, Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council, and Auditing Standards of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic, which are International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), as amended by the related application clauses. Our responsibilities under this law and regulation are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Act on Auditors and the Code of Ethics adopted by the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of goodwill and other assets

The Group conducts annual impairment tests of goodwill and other assets' balances. The impairment test involves determining the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit as a whole or individual assets, which corresponds to the value in use or selling price less cost to sell. Value in use is determined on the basis of an enterprise valuation model and is assessed from the Group's internal perspective.

These calculations of potential impairment amounts are a key audit matter as there is a significant uncertainty in relation to regulatory matters such as distribution fees and government support for renewable energy, which are, together with other significant assumptions included in the estimated future cash flows, main inputs to the calculations. Main assumptions that are subject to significant estimation uncertainty are projected future wholesale electricity prices, prices of green certificates or emission allowances, market access, development of the regulatory environment and discount rates as well as the strategy of the Group. Future cash flows relate to events and actions that have not yet occurred and may not occur. Another reason for impairment to be a key audit matter is the fact that the determination of cash-generating unit is to some extent subject to management judgement.

Our procedures included assessing the assumptions and methodologies used by the Group in their value in use models and assessment of the selling price less cost to sell. We involved our internal valuation specialists in assessing the adequacy of the Group's model used for the calculation of weighted average cost of capital and we also evaluated mathematical accuracy, underlying data and assumptions used in the calculation. We evaluated main assumptions that are subject to significant estimates such as future wholesale electricity prices, prices of green certificates or emission allowances ("emission certificates"), development of the regulatory environment and compared them to those observable on the market. We compared electricity prices as well as the prices of emission certificates to the contracts, which are actively traded on the market, and we assessed reasonableness of the Group's projections of these future prices for periods, for which the market data are not available. We also discussed the assumptions with our internal valuation specialists in the respective countries.

We analyzed the budgets and future cash flows of the cash-generating units. We compared the expected developments in budgeted cash flows to the expectations presented by the management while assessing the main assumptions of the models and discussing alternatives. We also assessed the adequacy of the model used for the impairment test calculation together with the definition of the cash-generating units and mathematical accuracy of the calculations.

We also focused on whether the Group's disclosures in the consolidated financial statements in relation to the impairment of goodwill and other assets, as presented and disclosed in Note 7. Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

Due to the significance of financial instruments measured at fair value, and a high degree of judgement related to their valuation, we consider this as a key audit matter.

We involved the internal valuation specialists to assist us in performing our audit procedures. We assessed the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the valuation, data integrity, independent price verification and model approval.

For areas of higher risk and estimation, our audit procedures focused on the comparison of judgments made to market practice and reperformance of valuations over a selection of instruments, assessing the key inputs, assumptions and models used in the valuation process. We compared our results with the Group's valuation.

We also focused on whether the Group's disclosures in the consolidated financial statements in relation to the valuation of financial instruments, as presented and disclosed in Note 17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Classification of commodity contracts

The Group is entering into commodity contracts on different markets and platforms mainly in Central Europe and Germany. Commodity trading activities include trading with electricity, gas, emission allowances, oil and coal.

This is a key audit matter as the distinction between the contracts in scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, which are treated as derivatives at fair value, and "own use" contracts, which are not remeasured to fair value, might be subject to a judgement and classification patterns set by the Group. This classification depends among other factors on the terms of the contract, whether the contract is considered to have been entered into as part of ordinary business activity, whether contract requires physical delivery of the commodity, and depends on various assumptions such as expected amount of commodity to be delivered, generation capacity of the portfolio mix and prices of commodities.

We tested the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over the initial recognition of the contract, consistency of the commodity contract designation and the Group's ability to deliver the physical commodity over the contractual period.

We performed audit procedures focusing on the analysis and comparison of volume of commodities physically delivered during 2022 and the volumes of the "own use" contracts portfolio. We reviewed the ability of the Group to physically deliver the contracted future "own use" sales retrospectively and prospectively and the stability of portfolio to ensure that the contracts are not reclassified during their existence.

We also focused on whether the Group's disclosures in the consolidated financial statements in relation to the commodity contracts classification, as presented and disclosed in Notes 2.16. Commodity Contracts and 25. Gains and Losses from Commodity Derivative Trading, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Other Information

In compliance with Section 2(b) of the Act on Auditors, the other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the consolidated financial statements and auditor's report thereon. The Board of Directors of ČEZ, a. s. (hereinafter only "Board of Directors") is responsible for the other information.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information. In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. In addition, we assess whether the other information has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with applicable law or regulation, in particular, whether the other information complies with law or regulation in terms of formal requirements and procedure for preparing the other information in the context of materiality, i.e. whether any non-compliance with these requirements could influence judgments made on the basis of the other information.

Based on the procedures performed, to the extent we are able to assess it, we report that:

  • The other information describing the facts that are also presented in the consolidated financial statements is, in all material respects, consistent with the consolidated financial statements; and
  • The other information is prepared in compliance with applicable law or regulation.

In addition, our responsibility is to report, based on the knowledge and understanding of the Group obtained in the audit, on whether the other information contains any material misstatement. Based on the procedures we have performed on the other information obtained, we have not identified any material misstatement.

Responsibilities of the Board of Directors, the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee for the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the IFRS EU and for such internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Supervisory Board of ČEZ, a. s. (hereinafter only "Supervisory Board") and The Audit Committee of ČEZ, a. s. (hereinafter only "Audit Committee") are responsible for overseeing the Group's consolidated financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with above regulations will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the above law or regulation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited

From the matters communicated with the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements

Information required by Regulation (EU) no. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council

In compliance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council, we provide the following information in our independent auditor's report, which is required in addition to the requirements of International Standards on Auditing:

Appointment of Auditor and Period of Engagement

We were appointed as the auditors of the Group by the General Meeting of Shareholders on 28 June 2021 and our uninterrupted engagement has lasted for 21 years.

Consistence with Additional Report to Audit Committee

We confirm that our audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements expressed herein is consistent with the additional report to the Audit Committee, which we issued on 20 March 2023 in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council.

Provision of Non-audit Services

We declare that no prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council were provided by us to the Group. In addition, there are no other non-audit services which were provided by us to the Group and its controlled undertakings and which have not been disclosed in the annual report.

Report on compliance with the ESEF Regulation

We performed a reasonable assurance engagement to verify the compliance of the financial statements contained in the annual report with the provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on a European single electronic format relating to financial statements ("ESEF Regulation").

Responsibility of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with the ESEF Regulation. The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for, among other things:

  • design, implementation and maintenance of an internal control system relevant to the application of the requirements of the ESEF Regulation,
  • the preparation of all financial statements contained in the annual report in the applicable XHTML format and
  • selection and use of XBRL labels as required by the ESEF Regulation.

Auditor's responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion, on the basis of the audit evidence obtained, whether the financial statements included in the annual report comply with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation in all material respects. We performed this reasonable assurance engagement in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements ISAE 3000 (revised) Assurance Engagements, which are not an audit or review of historical financial information ("ISAE 3000").

The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment. A reasonable level of assurance is a high level of assurance, however, it does not guarantee that a verification performed in accordance with the above standard will in all cases reveal any significant (material) non-compliance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation.

As part of the selected procedures, we performed the following activities:

  • we have read the requirements of the ESEF Regulation,
  • we get the understanding of the internal controls of ČEZ, a.s. relevant to the application of the requirements of the ESEF Regulation,
  • we have identified and evaluated the risks of material non-compliance with the ESEF Regulation due to fraud or error; and
  • Based on this, designed and implemented procedures to respond to the assessed risks and to obtain reasonable assurance for the purpose of expressing our conclusion.

The goal of our procedures was to assess whether

  • the financial statements, which are included in the annual report, have been prepared in the valid XHTML format,
  • the data contained in the financial statements required by the ESEF Regulation have been tagged and all tagging meets the
  • following requirements:
  • the XBRL markup language was used,
  • the elements of the basic taxonomy listed in the ESEF Regulation with the closest accounting significance have been used,
  • unless an extension taxonomy element has been created in accordance with Annex IV of the ESEF Regulation,
  • the mark-ups are in line with the common rules for tagging under the ESEF Regulation.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited

Conclusion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of the ČEZ Group and financial statements of ČEZ, a. s. for the year ended 31 December 2022 included in the annual report are in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation.

Other Matter

Given the technical limitations of the tools used in preparing the consolidated financial statements in compliance with the requirements of the ESEF Regulation, the content of some block tags in the machine-readable format of the notes to these consolidated financial statements may not be reproducible in the same form as in the human-readable layer of the audited consolidated financial statements.

ČEZ is an energy company that generated approximately 57% of electricity produced in the Czech Republic in 2022. ČEZ is a parent company of the CEZ Group, which is one of the largest economical entities in Central Europe.

The average full-time equivalent number of employees was 5,876 and 5,704 in 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The majority stake in the Company is owned by the Czech Republic, represented by the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic held a 69.8% share in the Company's stated capital at December 31, 2022. The majority shareholder's share in voting rights was 69.9% at the same date.

The "VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow" strategy is focused on dynamic transformation of the generation portfolio to low-emission one and achievement of full climate neutrality already by 2040. The strategy includes a commitment to end the production of heat from coal and fundamentally limit the production of electricity from coal by 2030. In areas of distribution and sales, the basic goal is to provide the most advantageous energy solutions and the best customer experience on the market.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2.1. Financial Statements

These separate financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU).

The financial statements are based on a historical cost approach, except where IFRS require a different measurement basis as disclosed in the description of accounting policies below.

Due to the economic substance of transactions and the environment in which the Company operates, the Czech crowns (CZK) is used as the functional currency and reporting currency.

The Company has also prepared CEZ Group's consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS for the same period.

Explanation Added for Translation into English.

These financial statements represent a translation of financial statements originally issued in Czech.

2.2. Changes in Accounting Policies

2.2.1. Adoption of New IFRS Standards in 2022

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, except for as follows. The Company has adopted the following new or amended standards and interpretations endorsed by EU as of January 1, 2022:

IFRS 3 Business Combinations; IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment; IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets as well as Annual Improvements 2018–2020 (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. The IASB has issued narrow-scope amendments to the IFRS Standards as follows:

  • IFRS 3 Business Combinations (Amendments) update a reference in IFRS 3 from the previous version of the IASB's Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting to the current version issued in 2018 without significantly changing the accounting requirements for business combinations.
  • IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (Amendments) prohibit a company from deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from the sale of items produced by this asset before it is put into use. Instead, a company recognizes such sales proceeds and related cost in profit or loss.
  • IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (Amendments) specify which costs a company includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether a contract is onerous. The amendments clarify that it is necessary to evaluate full costs directly attributable to the fulfilling of onerous contracts (not incremental costs).
  • Annual Improvements 2018–2020 make minor amendments to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IAS 41 Agriculture and the Illustrative Examples accompanying IFRS 16 Leases.

The application of those amendments did not have significant impact to the Company's financial statements.

2.2.2. New IFRS Standards and IFRIC Interpretations either not yet Effective or not yet Adopted by the EU

The Company is currently assessing the potential impacts of the new and revised standards and interpretations that will be effective or adopted by the EU from January 1, 2023, or later.

IFRS 17: Insurance Contracts

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted provided the entity also applies IFRS 9 Financial Instruments on or before the date it first applies IFRS 17. This is a comprehensive new accounting standard for insurance contracts covering recognition and measurement, presentation and disclosure. IFRS 17 applies to all types of insurance contracts issued as well as to certain guarantees and financial instruments with discretional participation contracts. The Company does not conclude contracts under the IFRS 17 and therefore the Company does not expect this standard to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments) The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments provide guidance on application of materiality judgements to accounting policy disclosures. In particular, the amendments to IAS 1 replace the requirement to disclose 'significant' accounting policies with a requirement to disclose 'material' accounting policies. Also, guidance and illustrative examples are added in the Practice Statement to assist in the application of the materiality concept when making judgements about accounting policy disclosures. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments) The amendments become effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted and apply to changes in accounting policies and changes in accounting estimates that occur on or after the start of that period. The amendments introduce a new definition of accounting estimates, defined as monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty, if they do not result from a correction of prior period error. Also, the amendments clarify what changes in accounting estimates are and how these differ from changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

IAS 12 Income Taxes: Deferred Tax Related to Assets and Liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction (Amendments) The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments narrow the scope of and provide further clarity on the initial recognition exception under IAS 12 and specify how companies should account for deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction, such as leases and decommissioning obligations. If the payments that settle the liability are deductible for tax purposes, it depends on the assessment of the relevant tax legislation whether they will be attributable for tax purposes to the liability or to the related asset component. Under the amendments, the initial recognition exception does not apply to transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. It only applies if the recognition of a lease asset and lease liability (or decommissioning liability and decommissioning asset component) give rise to taxable and deductible temporary differences that are not equal. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted and will need to be applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8. The objective of the amendments is to clarify the principles in IAS 1 for the classification of liabilities as either current or non-current. The amendments clarify the meaning of a right to defer settlement and defines the requirement for this right to exist at the end of the reporting period. The amendments also specify that management's intention or counterparty's option do not affect current or non-current classification of the liability, which would result in the settlement by the transfer of the entity's own equity instruments. Also, the amendments specify that only covenants with which an entity must comply on or before the reporting date will affect a liability's classification. Additional disclosures are also required for non-current liabilities arising from loan arrangements that are subject to covenants to be complied with within twelve months after the reporting period. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments)

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted. The amendments are intended to improve the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction in IFRS 16, while it does not change the accounting for leases unrelated to sale and leaseback transactions. In particular, the seller-lessee determines 'lease payments' or 'revised lease payments' in a such way that the seller-lessee would not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. Applying these requirements does not prevent the seller-lessee from recognizing, in profit or loss, any gain or loss related to the partial or full termination of a lease. A seller-lessee applies the amendment retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application, being this the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity first applied IFRS 16. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Amendments in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint-ventures: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint-venture

The amendments address an acknowledged inconsistency between the requirements in IFRS 10 and those in IAS 28, in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint-venture. The main consequence of the amendments is that a full gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves a business (whether it is housed in a subsidiary or not). A partial gain or loss is recognized when a transaction involves assets that do not constitute a business, even if these assets are housed in a subsidiary. In December 2015, the IASB postponed the effective date of these amendments indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting. These amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. Those amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

The Company does not expect early adoption of any of the above-mentioned standards, improvements or amendments.

2.3. Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date, the disclosure of information on contingent assets and contingent liabilities, and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for a reporting period. Actual results may differ from such estimates. A description of key assumptions for significant estimates is included in the relevant sections of the Notes.

The Company makes significant estimates when determining the recoverable amounts of property, plant and equipment and non-current financial assets (see Notes 3 and 5), for nuclear provisions (see Notes 2.21 and 17.1), provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants (see Notes 2.22 and 17.2) for provision for waste storage restoration (see Note 17.2), and when determining the fair value of commodity contracts (see Notes 2.14 and 15) and financial derivatives (see Notes 2.13 and 15), incremental interest rates and lease terms to measure lease liabilities (see Notes 2.23 and 21) and deferred tax calculation (see Notes 2.19 and 33).

The most significant changes in estimates in 2022 related to the provision for nuclear decommissioning and provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants due to updating the amount and scope of decommissioning costs. The other significant changes relate to determining the recoverable amount of financial assets and estimation of expected income tax rate during the years 2023-2025 due to windfall tax.

In 2021, there were significant changes in some estimates in connection with the adoption of the accelerated strategy VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow, which takes into account the EU's decarbonization vision and sets out specific ambitions in the area of social responsibility and sustainable development. The most significant changes in estimates in 2021 concerned a shortening of the expected remaining useful life of generating coal-fired plants (see Note 2.7), the determination of the provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants and determining the recoverable amount of non-current financial assets.

2.4. Revenues and Other Income

Revenue is recognized, when the Company has satisfied a performance obligation and the amount of revenue can be reliably measured. The Company recognizes revenue at the amount of estimated consideration (less estimated discounts) that it expects to receive for goods transferred or services provided to the customer.

To apply this basic principle, the Company uses a five-level model:

    1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer,
    1. Identify the performance obligations arising from the contract,
    1. Determine the transaction price,
    1. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations arising from the contract,
    1. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue from sales of electricity, heat and gas based on contract terms. Any differences between contracted amounts and actual supplies are settled through the market operator.

Sales are recognized net of value added tax.

Revenue from the sale of assets is recognized as soon as the delivery takes place and risks and associated benefits, as applicable, are transferred to the buyer.

Dividend income is recognized when the Company is awarded the right to the payment of the dividend.

Government and similar grants related to income are recognized in the income statement in the period in which the Company recognizes related expenses to be offset by the grant and is presented in the line Other operating income.

2.5. Fuel Costs

Fuel is recognized as costs when it is consumed. Fuel costs include the depreciation of nuclear fuel (see Note 2.8).

2.6. Interest

The Company capitalizes, as the cost of non-current assets, all interest associated with its investing activities that it would not have incurred if it did not pursue such investing activities. Interest is only capitalized for assets constructed or acquired over a substantial period of time.

2.7. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairments. The cost of property, plant and equipment comprises the purchase price and the related cost of materials and labor and the cost of debt financing used in the construction. The cost also includes the estimated cost of dismantling and removing a tangible asset to the extent specified by IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. Government grants and similar subsidies received for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment decrease the cost.

Self-constructed property, plant and equipment are measured at the cost of constructing them. Expenditures on the repair, maintenance and replacement of minor asset items are recognized as repair and maintenance expenses in the period when such repair is carried out. Improvements are capitalized. When an item of property, plant and equipment or a part thereof is sold or disposed of, its cost, relevant accumulated depreciation and any impairments are derecognized in the balance sheet. Any gains or losses arising from the sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment are included in profit or loss.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that an asset may have been impaired. Where there are such indicators of impairment, the Company checks whether the recoverable amount of the item of property, plant and equipment is less than its depreciated cost. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and the value in use. Any impairment of property, plant and equipment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that previously recognized impairments of assets are no longer justified or should be decreased. If there are such indicators, the Company determines the recoverable amount of non-current assets. A previously recognized impairment is recognized as an expense only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to estimate the non-current asset's recoverable amount since the last recognition of the impairment. If that is the case, the depreciated cost of the asset including the impairment is increased to the new recoverable amount. The new depreciated cost may not exceed the current carrying amount, less accumulated depreciation, that would be determined had no impairment been recognized in the past. A reversal of previously recognized impairment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

The Company depreciates the cost of property, plant and equipment less their residual value using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment that is significant in relation to the total amount of the asset is recognized and depreciated separately.

The estimated useful life of property, plant and equipment as at December 31, 2022, is determined as follows:

Useful lives
(years)
Buildings and structures 13–60
Machinery and equipment 4–36
Vehicles 4–34
Furniture and fixtures 4–15

The average depreciation period depending on useful life as at December 31, 2022, is determined as follows:

Average life
(years)
Hydro plants
Buildings and structures 48
Machinery and equipment 17
Fossil fuel plants
Buildings and structures 29
Machinery and equipment 17
Nuclear power plant
Buildings and structures 51
Machinery and equipment 38

Depreciation periods, residual values and depreciation methods are annually reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. In 2021, the expected remaining useful life of the assets of coal-fired plants was reduced by 7–10 years.

2.8. Nuclear Fuel

The Company recognizes nuclear fuel as part of property, plant and equipment because the period for which it is used for electricity generation exceeds 1 year. Nuclear fuel is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and, if applicable, impairments. Nuclear fuel includes a capitalized portion of the provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel. The depreciation of nuclear fuel in a reactor is determined on the basis of the amount of energy generated and presented in the statement of income in the line item Fuel and emission rights. The depreciation of nuclear fuel includes additions to the provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel.

2.9. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are measured at costs, including the purchase price and related expenses. Non current intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which ranges from 3–28 years. Amortization periods, residual values and amortization methods are annually reviewed and adjusted as appropriate. Improvements are capitalized.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that a non-current intangible asset may have been impaired. Non-current intangible assets under development are tested for possible impairment annually regardless of whether there are indicators of possible impairment. Any impairment of non-current intangible assets is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that previously recognized impairments of assets are no longer justified or should be decreased. If there are such indicators, the Company determines the recoverable amount of non-current assets. A previously recognized impairment is recognized as an expense only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to estimate the non-current asset's recoverable amount since the last recognition of the impairment. If that is the case, the amortized cost of the asset including the impairment is increased to the new recoverable amount. The new amortized cost may not exceed the current carrying amount, less accumulated amortization, that would be determined had no impairment been recognized in the past. A reversal of previously recognized impairment is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Impairments of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

2.10. Investment Property

Investment property is a property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both, rather than use for ordinary course of business. If the property is also used for ordinary business, it is an investment in property only if the owner-occupied portion is non-material.

Investment property is initially measured at cost, which consists of the purchase cost and any directly attributable transaction costs. Investment property should be recognized as an asset, when it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the property will flow to the entity and the cost of the property can be reliably measured. After initial recognition, investment property is recognized in accordance with the cost model. The Company depreciates the cost of investment property less their residual value using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. The average depreciation period based on useful life is 49 years.

2.11. Emission Rights

The greenhouse gas emission right (hereinafter the emission right) represents the right of the operator of a facility that generates greenhouse gas emissions by its operation to emit the equivalent of a ton of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere in a given calendar year. The Company is obliged to determine and report the amount of greenhouse gas emissions from the facilities for each calendar year and this amount must be to be audited by an accredited person. The Company was allocated a certain amount of emission rights on the basis of the National Allocation Plan.

The Company is required to remit the number of emission rights corresponding to its actual amount of greenhouse gas emissions in the previous calendar year by no later than April 30 of the next calendar year.

Allocated emission rights are measured at nominal, i.e., zero value in financial statements. Purchased emission rights are measured at cost (except for emission rights held for trading). The Company makes a provision for covering released emissions corresponding to the difference between the actually released amount of emissions and its inventory of allocated emission rights. The provision is measured primarily at the cost of emission rights that were purchased with the intention of covering greenhouse gas emissions in the reporting period. The provision for released emissions exceeding such rights is measured at the market price effective at the end of the reporting period. Emission rights purchased for use in the next year are recognized as current assets in the line item Emission rights. Emission rights with a later planned time of use are recognized as part of non current intangible assets.

The Company also purchases emission rights for the purpose of trading. The portfolio of emission rights held for trading is measured at fair value at the end of the reporting period, with any changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading. Emission rights purchased for the purpose of trading are recognized as current assets in the line item Emission rights.

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that emission allowances may have been impaired. Where there are such indicators, the Company checks whether the recoverable amount of cash-generating units that the emission rights were allocated to is less than their depreciated cost. Any impairment of emission rights is recognized in profit or loss and presented in the line item Other operating expenses.

Sale and repurchase agreements concerning emission rights are accounted for as collateralized loans.

2.12. Classification of Financial Instruments

Financial assets comprise primarily cash, equity instruments of another entity, or a contractual right to receive cash or another financial asset.

Financial liabilities are primarily contractual obligations to deliver cash or another financial asset.

Financial liabilities and assets are presented as current or non-current. Financial assets are classified as current if the Company intends to realize them within 12 months of the end of the reporting period or if there is not reasonable assurance that the Company will hold the financial assets for more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period.

Financial liabilities are presented as current if they are payable within 12 months of the end of the reporting period. Assets and liabilities held for trade are also presented as current assets and liabilities.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the resulting net amount is presented in the balance sheet if there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the Company intends to settle on a net basis or to realize the financial assets and settle the financial liabilities simultaneously.

2.12.1. Financial Assets

Financial assets are classified into the categories of at amortized cost, at fair value depending on whether the financial assets are held for sale or whether they are held under a business model whose objective is to hold the assets to collect contractual cash flows and at cost.

The Company classifies assets into the following categories:

a) Financial asset measurement at amortized cost

This category comprises financial assets for which the Company's strategy is to hold them to collect contractual cash flows, consisting of both principal and interest. Examples of such financial assets include loans, securities held to maturity, trade receivables.

Expected credit losses, exchange differences and interest revenue are recognized in profit or loss.

b) Financial asset measurement at fair value through other comprehensive income

This category comprises financial assets where the Company's strategy is both to collect contractual cash flows and to sell the financial assets. This model differentiates between two types of accounting treatment:

– Without future transfer to profit or loss—used for equity financial assets

Impairments are neither calculated nor recognized. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. When a financial asset is sold, no gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss, so it never affects profit or loss. If an equity financial asset is sold, the accumulated revaluation amount is transferred to retained earnings. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income as part of the revaluation amount. Dividends on such financial assets are recognized in profit or loss provided that the payment of such dividends does not reduce the value of the investment.

– With future transfer to profit or loss—used for debt financial assets

Additions to impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. On the disposal of a financial asset, the gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss (the gain/loss is transferred from other comprehensive income to profit or loss). Exchange differences in relation to revaluation surplus are recognized in other comprehensive income. Exchange differences in relation to impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss.

c) Financial asset measurement at fair value through profit or loss

A category of financial assets for which the Company's strategy is to actively trade the asset. The collection of contractual cash flows is not the main objective of the strategy. Examples of such financial assets are securities held for trading and non-hedging derivatives. Impairments are neither calculated nor recognized. Changes in fair value and exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

Changes in the fair value of financial investments at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in Other financial expenses or Other financial income.

d) Financial asset measurement at cost

This category of financial assets comprises investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. Additions to impairment are recognized in profit or loss.

2.12.2. Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified into two core categories of at amortized cost and at fair value through profit or loss. Classification into those categories is determined analogously to financial assets.

For fair value option financial liabilities, i.e., those measured at fair value through profit or loss, a change in fair value that is attributable to changes in credit risk is presented in other comprehensive income; the remaining amount is presented in profit or loss. However, if the treatment of changes in fair value that are attributable to credit risk created or enlarged an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, the entity would present all gains or losses on such a liability in profit or loss.

2.12.3. Derivatives

Derivatives are a special category of financial assets and liabilities. The manner of recognizing gains or losses from the revaluation of derivatives to fair value depends on whether a derivative is classified as a hedging instrument and on the nature of the item being hedged. More information on the reporting of derivatives can be found in Note 2.13.

2.12.4. Impairment of Financial Assets

The impairment of financial assets is based on a model of expected credit losses (ECL), which applies to the following financial assets: a) debt assets at amortized cost (trade receivables, loans, debt securities),

b) debt assets at fair value through other comprehensive income,

c) lease receivables,

d) financial guarantee contracts,

e) bank accounts and term deposits.

The Company accounts for either 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses depending on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition (or since the commitment was made or the guarantee was provided). The Company has used a simplified approach for some receivables, under which lifetime expected credit losses are always accounted for.

The portfolio of financial assets is broken down into 3 categories for the purposes of ECL calculation. At the date of initial recognition, financial assets are included in Category 1 with the lowest impairment, which is determined as a percentage of historically unpaid receivables. They are subsequently reclassified as Category 2 and 3 as the debtor's credit risk increases. If a financial asset is bearing interest, interest revenue in Category 3 is calculated from the net amount of the asset.

2.13. Derivatives

The Company uses financial derivatives, such as interest rate swaps and foreign exchange contracts, to hedge risks associated with interest rate and exchange rate fluctuations. Derivatives are measured at fair value. They are recognized as part of non-current and current other financial assets and liabilities in the balance sheet.

The manner of recognizing gains or losses from the revaluation of derivatives to fair value depends on whether a derivative is classified as a hedging instrument and on the nature of the item being hedged.

For hedge accounting purposes, hedging transactions are classified either as fair value hedges where the risk of change in the fair value of a balance sheet asset or liability is hedged or as cash flow hedges where the Company is hedged against the risk of changes in cash flows attributable to a balance sheet asset or liability or to a highly probable forecast transaction.

At the inception of a hedge, the Company prepares documents identifying the hedged item and the hedging instrument used and documenting the risk management objectives and strategy for various hedging transactions. At the inception and throughout the duration of a hedge, the Company documents whether the hedging instruments used are highly effective in relation to changes in the fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

2.13.1. Fair Value Hedging Derivatives

Changes in the fair values of fair value hedging derivatives are recognized in expenses or income, as appropriate, together with the relevant change in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that is related to the hedged risk. Where an adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item is made for a debt financial instrument, the adjustment is amortized in profit or loss over time until the maturity of such a financial instrument.

2.13.2. Cash Flow Hedging Derivatives

Changes in the fair values of derivatives hedging expected cash flows are initially recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss attributable to the ineffective portion is presented in the statement of income in the item Other financial expenses or Other financial income.

Amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in profit or loss in the period when the expenses or income associated with the hedged items are accounted for.

When a hedging instrument expires or a derivative is sold or it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity remains in equity until the forecast transaction is closed and then recognized in the statement of income. If a forecast transaction is no longer likely to occur, the cumulative gain or loss, originally recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to profit or loss.

2.13.3. Other Derivatives

Some derivatives are not intended for hedge accounting. A change in the fair value of such derivatives is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.14. Commodity Contracts

According to IFRS 9, certain commodity contracts are considered to be financial instruments and accounted for in accordance with the standard. Most commodity purchases and sales carried out by the Company assume physical delivery of the commodity in amounts intended for use or sale in the course of the Company's ordinary activities. Therefore, such contracts (so-called "own use" contracts) are not within the scope of IFRS 9.

Forward purchases and sales with physical delivery of energy are not within the scope of IFRS 9 as long as the contract is made in the course of the Company's ordinary activities. This is true if all of the following conditions are met:

  • Physical delivery of the commodity takes place under the contract;
  • The amount of the commodity purchased or sold under the contract corresponds to the Company's operating requirements;
  • The contract does not represent a sold option as defined by IFRS 9. In the specific case of electricity sales contracts, the contracts are substantially equivalent to firm forward sales or can be considered sales of generation capacity.

The Company considers transactions entered into with the aim of balancing electricity amounts purchased and sold to be part of an integrated energy group's ordinary activities; therefore, such contracts are not within the scope of IFRS 9.

Commodity contracts that are within the scope of IFRS 9 and that do not hedge cash flow are revalued to fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. The Company presents revenue and expenses related to trading in electricity and other commodities in the statement of income item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading.

Changes in the fair values of commodity contracts that are within the scope of IFRS 9 and that hedge expected cash flows are initially recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss attributable to the ineffective portion is presented in the statement of income in the item Gains and losses from commodity derivative trading.

Subsequently, in accordance with the description in Note 2.13.2, amounts accumulated in equity are recognized in profit or loss in the period when the expenses or income associated with the hedged items are accounted for.

When a hedging instrument expires or a commodity contract is sold or it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity remains in equity until the expected transaction is closed and then recognized in the statement of income. If the expected transaction is no longer likely to occur, the cumulative gain or loss, originally recognized in other comprehensive income, is transferred to profit or loss.

2.15. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, current accounts with banks and short-term financial deposits with maturity of no more than 6 months. Foreign currency cash and cash equivalents are translated to the Czech koruna at the exchange rate applicable at the end of the reporting period.

2.16. Restricted Financial Assets

Cash and other financial assets that are recognized as restricted funds (see Note 4) are intended for the funding of nuclear decommissioning, for the waste storage reclamation and rehabilitation of waste dumps, or are cash guarantees given to counterparties. Such funds are classified as non-current assets due to the time at which they are expected to be released for the Company's purposes.

2.17. Materials and Supplies

Purchased inventories are measured at actual cost, using the weighted average cost method. The costs of purchased inventories include all costs of purchase, including transport costs. Upon use, they are recognized in expenses or capitalized as non-current assets. Work in progress is measured at actual cost. The costs include, primarily, direct material and labor costs. Obsolete inventories are written down using impairments recognized in expenses. Impairments of inventories amounted to CZK 22 million and CZK 40 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

2.18. Fossil Fuel Stocks

Inventories of fossil fuels are measured at actual cost, determined on a weighted average cost basis.

2.19. Income Taxes

The amount of income taxes is determined in compliance with Czech tax laws and is based on the Company's profit or loss determined in accordance with Czech accounting regulations and adjusted for permanently or temporarily nondeductible expenses and untaxed income (e.g., a difference in the depreciation and amortization of non-current assets for tax and accounting purposes). The current income tax at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was calculated from income before tax in accordance with Czech accounting regulations, adjusted for some items that are nondeductible or nontaxable for tax purposes, using a rate of 19%. The applicable tax rate for 2022 is 19%. The Company will be burdened by an increased tax rate, so called windfall tax, in the period of 2023–2025 (see Note 33). During this period, the taxable income of the Company (above the tax base derived from average tax base from years 2018–2021 increased by 20%) will be taxed by 60%. Expected tax rate from 2026 is 19%.

Deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the liability method based on a balance sheet approach. Deferred tax is calculated from temporary differences between accounting measurement and measurement for the purposes of determining the income tax base. Deferred tax is determined using rates and laws that have been enacted by the end of the reporting period and are expected to apply when the deferred tax asset is realized, or the deferred tax liability is settled.

A deferred tax asset or liability is not discounted. A deferred tax asset is recognized when it is probable that the Company will generate sufficient taxable profit in the future against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all taxable temporary differences.

The carrying amount of a deferred tax asset is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and, if necessary, the carrying amount of the deferred tax asset is reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or all of that deferred tax asset to be utilized.

If the current and deferred tax relate to items that are charged or credited directly to equity in the same or a different tax period, the tax is also recognized directly in equity.

Changes in the deferred tax due to a change in tax rates are recognized in profit or loss, except for items charged or credited directly to equity in the same or a different tax period, for which such a change is also recognized directly in equity.

2.20. Long-term Debt

Debt is initially measured at the amount of proceeds from the issue of the debt, less transaction costs. It is then carried at amortized cost, which is determined using the effective interest rate. The difference between the nominal amount and the initial measurement of debt is recognized in profit or loss as interest expense over the period of debt.

Transaction costs comprise commission paid to advisers, agents and brokers and levies by regulatory agencies and securities exchanges.

For long-term debt that is hedged with derivatives hedging against changes in fair value, the measurement of hedged debt is adjusted for changes in fair value. Changes in the fair value of such debt are recognized in profit or loss and reported in the statement of income in Other financial expenses or Other financial income. The adjustment to the carrying amount of hedged long-term debt is subsequently recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest rate.

2.21. Nuclear Provisions

The Company makes a provision for nuclear decommissioning, a provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel and other radioactive waste and a provision for the funding of subsequent permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel and irradiated reactor components (see Note 17.1).

The provisions made correspond to the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. The estimate, expressed at the price level at the date of estimate, is discounted using an estimated long-term real interest rate of 2.0% and 0.3% per annum as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, so as to take into account the timing of expenditure. Initial discounted costs are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment and then amortized for the duration of time for which nuclear power plants will generate electricity. The provision is increased by the estimated inflation and real interest rate annually. Such expenses are recognized in the statement of income in the line-item Interest on provisions. The effect of the expected rate of inflation is estimated at 2.8% and 2.0% as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The process of nuclear power plant decommissioning is estimated to continue for approximately 50 years after the termination of electricity generation. It is assumed that a permanent repository for spent nuclear fuel will commence operation in 2065 and the disposing of stored spent nuclear fuel at the repository will continue until approximately 2090. Although the Company has made the best estimate of the amount of nuclear provisions, potential changes in technology, changes in safety and environmental requirements and changes in the duration of such activities may result in actual costs varying considerably from the Company's current estimates.

Changes in estimates concerning the provisions for nuclear decommissioning and permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel resulting from new estimates of the amount or timing of cash flows required to settle these obligations or from a change in the discount rate are added to, or deducted from, the amount recognized as an asset in the balance sheet. Should the amount of the asset be negative, i.e., should the deducted amount exceed the amount of the asset, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.22. Provision for Demolition and Dismantling of Fossil-fuel Power Plants

The Company has recognized provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants (see Note 17.2) after their decommissioning. The provision was created in 2021 in connection with the deepening of decarbonization targets at the EU level and in connection with updating the Group's strategy and signing up to accelerate the decarbonization of the generation portfolio within the "VISION 2030 – Clean Energy of Tomorrow". The provision created corresponds to the best estimate of the expenditures required to settle the present obligation at the balance sheet date. The estimate, expressed at the price level at the date of estimate, is discounted using an estimated real interest rate of 0.8% and (0.4)% per annum as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, in order to take into account the timing of expenditure. Initial discounted costs are capitalized as part of property, plant and equipment and then depreciated over the period during which coal power plants will generate electricity. The provision is updated annually with regard to the estimated inflation and real interest rate. These expenses are recognized in the statement of income in the line item Interest on provisions. The effect of the expected rate of inflation is estimated at 4.0% and 2.0% as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Although the Company has made the best estimate of the amount of provision for demolition and dismantling of fossil-fuel power plants, potential changes in technology, changes in safety and environmental requirements and changes in the duration of such activities may result in actual costs varying considerably from the Company's current estimates.

Changes in estimates concerning the provision resulting from new estimates of the amount or timing of cash flows required to settle these obligations or from a change in the discount rate are added to, or deducted from, the amount recognized as an asset in the balance sheet. Should the amount of the asset be negative, i.e., should the deducted amount exceed the amount of the asset, the difference is recognized directly in profit or loss.

2.23. Leases

Determining whether a contract is, or contains, a lease is based on the economic substance of the transaction and requires an assessment of whether the fulfillment of the contractual obligation is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets and whether the contract conveys a right to use the asset.

The Company does not apply IFRS 16 to leases of intangible assets.

2.23.1. Company as a Lessee

The Company uses a consistent approach to the reporting and measurement of all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Company accounts for future lease payments as lease liabilities and recognizes right-of-use assets, which represent a right to use the underlying assets. Lease payments for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

a) Lease Liability

At the commencement date of a lease, the Company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of the lease payments that are to be made over the lease term. Lease payments comprise fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate and amounts expected to be payable under residual value guarantees. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.

When calculating the present value of lease payments, the Company uses an incremental interest rate at the commencement date of the lease because the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased by accrued interest and decreased by the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a lease modification, i.e., a change in the lease term, a change in lease payments (e.g., changes in future payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine the amount of the lease payment), or a change in the assessment of the option to purchase the underlying asset.

The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow, over a similar term and with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. The Company estimates the incremental interest rate using observable inputs, such as market interest rates.

The Company uses judgment to determine the expected lease term for contracts made for an indefinite time.

b) Right-of-Use Assets

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date when the underlying assets are available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses and adjusted for any reassessment of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets comprises the amount of recognized lease liabilities, initial direct costs and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term or the estimated life of the assets as follows:

Depreciation period
(years)
Lands 4–22
Buildings 8–13
Vehicles, machinery and equipment 3–42
Inventory and other tangible assets 6–12

2.23.2. Company as a Lessor

The Company leases out its tangible assets including own tangibles and right-of-use assets. The Company has classified the leases as financial or operating leases. Operating lease is a lease whereby the Company does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of assets.

Lease income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and included as income in profit or loss due to their operating nature.

For the leases classified as finance leases, the Company recognizes a net investment in the lease measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term, increased by any unguaranteed residual value of the leased asset at the end of the lease, which is not conditioned by future cash flow. In calculating the present value of net investment in the lease, the Company uses the interest rate implicit in the lease. In the case of a sublease, if the interest rate implicit in the sublease is not readily determined, the Company uses the discount rate used for the head lease.

2.24. Share-based Payments

Members of the Board of Directors and selected managers are in the new long-term bonus program since January 1, 2020 (Note 27). The amount of the bonus is partially based on the value of the Company's shares and it is settled in cash. The expense and related liability are recognized when the services are provided to the Company and in the fair value of the expected cash-settled transactions. The liability is subsequently revalued at fair value for each reporting period and at the settlement date, with any changes in fair value being reported in the relevant period in the statement of income in the line Salaries and wages.

2.25. Treasury Shares

Treasury shares are reported in the balance sheet as an item reducing equity. The acquisition of treasury shares is recognized in the statement of changes in equity as a deduction from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income on the sale, issue, or cancellation of treasury shares. Consideration received is recognized in financial statements as a direct increase in equity.

2.26. Foreign Currency Transactions

Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into the Czech currency at the exchange rate applicable at the date of the accounting transaction as published by the Czech National Bank for that date. In annual financial statements, such monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate applicable at December 31. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are recognized in profit or loss, except when exchange differences arise in connection with a liability that is classified as an effective hedge of cash flows. Such exchange differences are recognized directly in equity.

Exchange differences on financial assets are described in Note 2.12.1.

The Company used the following exchange rates to translate assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at December 31, 2022 and 2021:

2022 2021
CZK per 1 EUR 24.115 24.860
CZK per 1 USD 22.616 21.951
CZK per 1 PLN 5.152 5.408
CZK per 1 BGN 12.330 12.711
CZK per 1 RON 4.873 5.023
CZK per 100 JPY 17.152 19.069
CZK per 1 TRY 1.208 1.631
CZK per 1 GBP 27.200 29.585
CZK per 100 HUF 6.015 6.734

2.27. Assets Classified as Held for Sale

Assets and disposal groups of assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Assets and groups of assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is considered met only if the sale is highly probable and the asset or group of assets is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Company management must take steps toward the sale of the asset or group of assets so as to complete the sale within one year from the date of the classification of the assets or group of assets as held for sale.

Property, plant and equipment and non-current intangible assets classified as held for sale are not depreciated or amortized.

Testing Assets for Impairment

The Company's generation assets are tested for potential impairment as a single cash-generating unit except for specific assets such as the CCGT plant at Počerady. The cash-generating unit of the Company's generation assets is characterized by portfolio management in the deployment of generating facilities, in their maintenance and in the cash flows arising from this activity.

Testing of the recoverable amount of non-current assets of the ČEZ, a. s., cash-generating unit (hereinafter the ČEZ value) included an analysis of the sensitivity of test results to change in selected significant parameters of the model used – change in wholesale electricity prices (hereinafter the EE prices), the discount rate used in calculating the present value of future cash flows, and the CZK/EUR exchange rate.

A key assumption of the ČEZ value model is developments in commodity prices and, most importantly, developments in the wholesale price of electricity in Germany, which has a profound impact on developments in wholesale electricity prices in the Czech Republic. Developments in wholesale prices are determined primarily by the EU's political decisions, developments in global commodity demand and supply, and technological progress.

Developments in EE prices are affected by a number of external factors, in particular changes in the structure and availability of generating facilities in the Czech Republic and its neighboring countries, macroeconomic developments in the region of Central Europe, and energy sector regulation in the EU and Germany. The model is built for a period matching the operating life of generating facilities, which means that its time frame greatly exceeds the period for which commodities, including electricity, are traded in public liquid markets. In addition, there are discussion being held about structural changes in the electricity market ("Market Design") and about substantial sector regulation. So it is very possible that market mechanisms for electricity pricing will be abandoned completely within the lifetime of generating facilities. And centrally regulated payments for the availability and deliveries of generating facilities will be introduced alternatively.

Due to the long-term nature of the model, the sensitivity of the ČEZ value to developments in electricity prices is also affected by internal factors and assumptions. It relates, in particular, generation portfolio deployment varying with different changes in the prices of electricity, emission rights, and variable generation costs and, in the longer term, also with respect to changes in fixed costs reflecting changes in the gross margin of generating facilities.

The result of the sensitivity test shown below reflects an expert estimation of the status and changes of the abovementioned factors within the modeled period time frame and the status of price and currency hedges for future generation as at December 31, 2022.

The test is based on the business plan of ČEZ for 2023–2027 and on the assumptions of long-term development of relevant electricity prices. The business plan was prepared in the fourth quarter of 2022 based on market parameters from October 2022 (electricity prices on the EEX energy exchange in Germany, prices on the PXE energy exchange in the Czech Republic, prices of emission rights, foreign exchange rates, interest rates, etc.). Electricity contracts traded on EEX are liquid for the whole period covering the business plan time frame and considering the interconnectedness of the German and Czech transmission grids makes them a fundamental market indicator for EE prices in the Czech Republic. As part of the sensitivity analysis, the risk scenario of the EE price was defined, and this test confirmed the valuation of assets of the Company. For the purpose of sensitivity analysis, the input EE prices, emission rights prices and foreign exchange rates were applied to the relevant opened positions of ČEZ. As part of all tests, it was considered the impact of levy on revenues above price caps of electricity producers, as well as impact of windfall tax for years 2023–2025.

The Company did not recognize any impairment losses on generation assets in 2022 and 2021. A change in the assumed EE prices according to models by 1%, while other parameters remain unchanged, has an impact of approximately CZK 9.7 billion on the ČEZ value test result. Future cash flows were discounted at a rate of 6.3%. A change of 0.1 percentage point in the discount factor, while other parameters remain unchanged, would change the ČEZ value by approximately CZK 7.9 billion. A 1% change in the CZK/EUR exchange rate, while other parameters remain unchanged, would result in a change of approximately CZK 9.3 billion in the ČEZ value. Above mentioned changes in ČEZ value would not lead to an impairment of assets.

4. Restricted Financial Assets, Net

The following table analyses the value of receivables from commodity derivatives by the period of delivery as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 and the year to year development (in CZK millions):

2022 2021 Year-to-year change
Delivery in 2021 5,484 (5,484)
Delivery in 2022 3,072 427,772 (424,700)

Delivery in 2025 and thereafter 7,853 497 7,356
Total commodity and other derivatives 276,157 500,808 (224,651)

The balance of derivatives comprises mainly the positive fair values of commodity trading contracts. The decrease of receivables from commodity and other derivatives in 2022 is caused mainly due to physical delivery of the commodity or by financial settlement. Year to year decrease is also influenced by volatility of the market prices of electricity, gas, emission rights and other commodities. Related decrease of liabilities from commodity and other derivatives is disclosed in Note 18.

Movements in impairment provisions of financial assets at amortized costs were as follows (in CZK millions):

2022 2021

Derecognition of financial assets 525 843
Balance at December 31 (32,066) (31,706)

In 2022, an impairment loss was derecognized in the amount of CZK 429 million due to non-monetary contribution of Energetické centrum s.r.o. into the company ČEZ Teplárenská, a.s., and CZK 64 million due non-monetary contribution of CEZ Deutschland GmbH into the company CEZ RES International B.V. Further impairment loss was derecognized due to liquidation of the company Elektrárna Mělník III, a. s. v likvidaci, and the company CEZ Trade Romania S.R.L. in the amount of CZK 19 million and CZK 13 million, respectively.

In 2021, an impairment loss of CZK 843 million was derecognized due to the merger of ČEZ Korporátní služby, s.r.o., with ČEZ, a. s.

Capital Structure Management

The primary objective of the Company's capital structure management is to maintain its credit rating at an investment grade and a level that is standard in the sector and to maintain a healthy ratio of equity to borrowed capital to support the Group's business and maximize value for shareholders. The Company monitors its capital structure and makes adjustments to it with a view to changes in the business environment.

The Company primarily monitors its capital structure using the net debt to EBITDA ratio. Considering the current structure and stability of its cash flows and its development strategy, the Group aims to keep the ratio at 2.5–3.0. The Company also monitors its capital structure using the total debt to total capital ratio. The Company aims to keep the ratio below 50% in the long term.

EBITDA comprises earnings before taxes and other expenses and revenues plus depreciation and amortization and impairment of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets less gain (or plus loss) from sales of property, plant, and equipment. Total debt comprises long-term debt including the current portion and short-term borrowings. Net debt represents total debt less cash and cash equivalents and highly liquid financial assets. For the purposes of capital structure management, highly liquid financial assets comprise short-term and long-term debt financial assets and short-term and long-term deposits. Total capital is equity attributable to parent company shareholders plus total debt. These calculations always include items relating to assets held for sale, which are reported separately in the balance sheet.

The calculation and evaluation of the ratios is done using consolidated figures (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Total long-term debt 149,090 112,580

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the amount for which an asset could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm's length transaction, which excludes a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value is determined as a quoted market price or a value obtained on the basis of discounted cash flow models or option pricing models.

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to determine the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments

The fair value of cash and other current financial assets is deemed to be the carrying amount due to their relatively short maturity.

Securities Held for Trading

The fair value of current equity and debt securities held for trading is based on their market price.

Non-current Debt and Equity Financial Assets

The fair value of non-current debt and equity financial assets that are publicly traded in an active market is based on their quoted market price. The fair value of non-current and equity financial assets that are not publicly traded in an active market is determined using appropriate valuation techniques.

Short-term Receivables and Payables

The fair value of receivables and payables is deemed to be the carrying amount due to their relatively short maturity.

Short-term Borrowings

The fair value of these financial instruments corresponds to the carrying amount due to their short maturity.

Long-term Debt

The fair value of long-term debt is deemed to be the market value of identical or similar instruments, or the measurement is based on current interest rates on debt with the same maturity. The fair value of long-term debt with a variable interest rate is deemed to be the carrying amount.

Derivatives

The fair value of derivatives corresponds to their market value.

The overview of carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of financial assets (except for derivatives) at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (in CZK millions):

15.1. Fair Value Hierarchy

The Company uses and discloses financial instruments with the following structure according to the manner in which the fair value is determined:

Level 1: Measured at fair value using the market prices of identical assets and liabilities quoted in active markets.

Level 2: Measured at fair value using methods under which significant inputs are directly or indirectly derived from data observable in active markets.

Level 3: Measured at fair value using methods under which significant inputs are not derived from data observable in active markets.

For assets and liabilities that occur regularly or repeatedly in financial statements, the Company reviews categorization in levels of the fair value hierarchy (according to the lowest input level that is significant to the measurement of fair value as a whole) at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there have been any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

In 2022, the fair value of commodity contracts of gas on insufficiently active markets for the whole period of the contract was transferred from level 2 to level 3. There were no transfers between levels of financial instruments measured at fair value in 2021.

As at December 31, 2022, the fair value hierarchy was the following (in CZK millions):

The Company negotiates derivative financial instruments with various counterparties, especially large groups operating in the energy sector and large financial institutions with high credit ratings. Derivatives that are measured by means of techniques using market inputs include, in particular, commodity forward and futures contracts, foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, and options. The most frequently applied valuation methods use commodity price curves, swap models, present value calculations, and option pricing models (e.g., Black-Scholes, Black-76). The models use various inputs including the forward curves of underlying commodities, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, and interest rate curves.

The following table shows roll forward of the financial assets measured at fair value – Level 3, for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

The most significant investment in the portfolio of Equity financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income is a 15% interest in company Veolia Energie ČR, a.s. (see Note 5). The company's shares are not traded in any market. The fair value at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was determined using available public information on EBITDA and usual EBITDA multiples which corresponds to the purchase price of a 100% stake in a company in transactions observed in the market in the industry in question before adjustment for the amount of debt. The fair value at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was determined using 6 EBITDA multiple and 7 EBITDA multiple, respectively, as the best estimate of the fair value.

Equity financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include an investment in ČEZ's investment funds at Inven Capital, SICAV, a.s. (see Note 5). The fair value of the investments as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 was determined by a valuation expert. The determination of fair value takes into consideration, in particular, capital contributions and other forms of funding recently provided by co-investors. In addition, the measurement takes into account future development and any subsequent significant events, such as received offers to buy a share.

Commodity derivatives measured at fair value in level 3 include cross-border electricity transmission rights (hereinafter referred to as "cross-border capacities") and gas contracts with delivery in regions where the market is not sufficiently active throughout the duration of the contract. Cross-border capacities are sold in auctions organized by auction offices covering transmission system operators or in auctions organized directly by transmission system operators. Cross-border capacities are not traded on an organized market. The fair value of cross-border capacities, which represents an estimate of the expected value of compensation for unused cross-border capacities, takes into account especially the acquisition price of purchased capacities and the forward prices of electricity in the respective countries. The fair value of contracts for the purchase and sale of gas on insufficiently active markets is derived from the nearest active market, and the location spread is determined using a valuation model that makes maximum use of available market data.

15.2. Offsetting of Financial Instruments

The following table shows the recognized financial instruments that are offset, or subject to enforceable master netting agreement or other similar agreements but not offset, as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

1) Other financial instruments consist of invoices from derivative trading and are included in Trade receivables, net or Trade payables. 2) Collaterals paid are included in Trade receivables, net and collaterals received are included in Trade payables.

The Company trades in derivatives under EFET and ISDA master agreements. The agreements allow mutual setoff of receivables and payables on early termination of contracts. The reason for early termination is the counterparty's insolvency or failure to fulfill agreed contract terms. All agreed contracts are settled financially on early termination. Their mutual setoff is either embedded in a contractual provision of the master agreements or results from the collateral provided. In addition, a CSA (Credit Support Annex) has been signed with several partners, defining the permitted limit of exposure between the partners. When the limit is exceeded, cash is transferred to reduce exposure below an agreed level. The deposited cash is also included in the final offset.

Short-term derivative assets are included in the balance sheet in Other current financial assets, net; long-term derivative assets are included in Other non-current financial assets, net; short-term derivative liabilities are included in Other current financial liabilities; and long-term derivative liabilities are included in Other non-current financial liabilities.

16. Financial Risk Management

Risk Management Approach

A risk management system is being successfully developed in order to protect the Group's value while taking the level of risk acceptable for the shareholders. In the Group, the risk is defined as a potential difference between the actual and the expected (planned) developments and is measured by means of the extent of such difference in CZK and the likelihood with which such a difference may occur.

A risk capital concept is applied within the Group. The concept allows the setting of basic cap for partial risk limits and, in particular, the unified quantification of all kinds of risks. The value of aggregate annual risk limit (Profit@Risk) is approved by the Board of Directors based on the Risk Management Committee proposal for every financial year. The proposed limit value is derived from historical volatility of profit, revenues and costs of the Group (the top-down method). The approved value in CZK is set on the basis of a 95% confidence level and expresses a maximum profit decrease, which is the Group willing to take in order to reach the planned annual profit.

The "Bottom-up" method is used for setting and updating the Risk Frames. The Risk Frames include the definition of risk and departments/units of the Group for which the frame is obligatory; definition of rules and responsibilities for risk management; permitted instruments and methods of risk management and actual risk limits, including a limit which expresses the share in the annual Profit@Risk limit.

The main Business Plan market risks are quantified in the Group (EBITDA@Risk based on MonteCarlo simulation in Y+1 to Y+5 horizon). The market risks are actively managed through gradual electricity sales and emission allowances' purchases in the following 6-year horizon, closed long-term contracts for electricity sale and emission allowances' purchase and the FX and IR risk hedging in medium-term horizon. In Business Plan horizon, the risk management is also based on Debt Capacity concept which enables to assess the impact of main investment and other activities (incl. the risk characteristics), on expected cash flow and total debt in order to maintain corporate rating. Since 2021, a Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme is adopted by the Group to be applied to all group-level significant risks. For this level of risks, the scheme integrates, across the process areas of the whole Group, all decentral risk management activities into one, uniform and centrally coordinated process of group-level significant risks management, with the use of the software tool.

Risk Management Organization

The supreme authority responsible for risk management in ČEZ, a. s., is the CFO, except for approval of the aggregate annual budget risk limit (Profit@Risk) within the competence of the ČEZ, a. s., Board of Directors. CFO decides, based on the recommendation of the Risk Management Committee, on the development of a system of risk management, on an overall allocation of risk capital to the individual risks and organizational units and he approves obligatory rules, responsibilities and limit structure for the management of partial risks.

The Risk Management Committee (advisory committee of CFO) continuously monitors an overall risk impact on the Group, including Group risk limits utilization, status of risks linked to Business Plan horizon, hedging strategies status, assessment of impact of investment and other activities on potential Group debt capacity and cash flow in order to maintain corporate rating. Since 2021, it also monitors overviews regarding Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme.

Overview and Methods of Risk Management

The Group applies a unified categorization of the Group's risks which reflects the specifics of a corporate, i.e., non-banking company, and focuses on primary causes of unexpected development. The risks are divided into four basic categories listed below.

1. Market risks 2. Credit risks 3. Operation risks 4. Business risks
1.1 Financial (FX, IR) 2.1 Counterparty default 3.1 Operating 4.1 Strategic
1.2 Commodity 2.2 Supplier default 3.2 Internal change 4.2 Political
1.3 Volumetric 2.3 Settlement 3.3 Liquidity management 4.3 Regulatory
1.4 Market liquidity 3.4 Security 4.4 Reputation

From the view of risk management, the Group activities can be divided into two basic groups:

  • activities with the unified quantification of the share of respective activity in the aggregate risk limit of the Group (i.e., using specific likelihood, it is possible to objectively determine what risk is associated with an activity/planned profit). These risks are managed by the rules and limits set by the CFO of ČEZ, a. s., based on the recommendation of the Risk Management Committee and, concurrently, in accordance with governing documents of the respective units / processes of the Group;
  • activities whose share in the aggregate risk limit of the Group has not been quantified so far or for objective reasons. These risks are managed by the responsible owners of the relevant processes in accordance with internal governing documents of the respective units / processes of the Group which are newly also subject to policies defined by Uniform Enterprise Risk Management Scheme since 2021.

For all risks quantified on a unified basis, a partial risk limit is set whose continuous utilization is evaluated on a monthly basis and is usually defined as a sum of the actually expected deviation of expected annual profit from the plan and the potential risk of loss on a 95% confidence interval. The Group's methodologies and data provide for a unified quantification of the following risks:

  • market risks: financial (currency, interest and stock price) risks, commodity prices (electricity, emission allowances, coal, gas, crude oil), volume (volume of electricity produced by wind power plants);
  • credit risks: financial and business counterparty risk and electricity, gas and heat end customer risk;
  • operational risks: risks of nuclear and fossil power plants operation, investment risks.

The development of quantified risks is reported to the Risk Management Committee every month through 3 regular reports:

  • Annual budget risks (annual Profit@Risk limit utilization);
  • Business plan risks (EBITDA@Risk based on MonteCarlo simulation);
  • Debt capacity (actual deviation from the optimal debt within Y+5 horizon, derived from rating agency requirements on debt indicators in order to preserve the ČEZ rating).

16.1. Qualitative Description of ČEZ, a. s., Risks Associated with Financial Instruments

Commodity Risks

The development of electricity, emission allowances, coal and gas prices is a key risk factor of the ČEZ value. The current system of commodity risk management is focused on (i) the margin from the own electricity production sales, i.e., from trades resulting in optimizing the sales of ČEZ's production and in optimizing the emission allowances position for production (the potential risk is managed on the EaR, VaR and the EBITDA@Risk bases), and (ii) the margin from the proprietary trading of commodities (the potential risk is managed on the VaR basis).

Market Financial Risks (currency and interest risks)

The development of foreign exchange rates and interest rates is a significant risk factor of the ČEZ value. The current system of financial risk management is focused mainly on (i) the future cash flows and (ii) financial trades which are realized for the purposes of an overall risk position management in accordance with the risk limits (the potential risk is managed on the basis of VaR, EBITDA@Risk and complementary position limits). Own financial instruments (i.e., active and passive financial trades and derivative trades) are realized entirely in the context of an overall expected cash flows (including operational and investment foreign currency flows).

Credit Risks

Credit exposures of individual financial partners and wholesale partners are managed in accordance with individual credit limits. The individual limits are set and continuously updated according to the counterparty's credibility (in accordance with international rating and internal financial evaluation of counterparties with no international rating).

Company's maximum exposure to credit risk to receivables and other financial instruments as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is the carrying value of each class of financial assets except for financial guarantees.

Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Group's treasury department in accordance with the Group's policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty.

In accordance with the credit risk methodology applied to the banking sector per Basel II, every month the expected and potential losses are quantified on a 95% confidence level. It means that the share of all the above credit risks in the aggregate annual Profit@Risk limit is quantified and evaluated.

Liquidity Risks

Liquidity risk is primarily perceived as an operational risk (risk of liquidity management) and a risk factor is the internal ability to effectively manage the future cash flows planning process and to secure the adequate liquidity and effective short-term financing (the risk is managed on a qualitative basis). The fundamental liquidity risk management (i.e., liquidity risk within the meaning for banking purposes) is covered by the risk management system as a whole. In any given period, the future deviations of the expected cash flows are managed in accordance with the aggregate risk limit and in the context of the actual and the targeted debt/equity ratio of ČEZ. Other tools used for liquidity risk management are the regularly evaluated Margin@Risk reports and liquidity stress scenario reports, which are mainly used to manage the liquidity risk related to the margin calls requirements. These reports also evaluate the effects of the transactions of the sliding sale of electricity and the purchase of emission rights in the horizon of the next 6 years.

16.2. Quantitative Description of ČEZ, a. s., Risks Associated with Financial Instruments

Commodity Risks

The required quantitative information on risks (i.e., a potential change of market value resulting from the effects of risk factors as at December 31) was prepared based on the assumptions given below:

  • the indicator of risk associated with financial instruments is defined as the monthly parametric VaR (95% confidence) which expresses a maximum potential decrease in fair value of contracts classified as derivatives under IFRS 9 (the underlying commodities in the Company's derivative transactions are: electricity, EUA emission rights, gas, coal ARA, Richards Bay, Newcastle and crude oil and crude oil products) on the given confidence level;
  • highly probable forecasted future electricity generation sales with the delivery in the CZ power grid are included in the VAR calculation to reflect the hedging character of significant portion of the existing derivative sales of electricity with delivery in Germany;
  • for the calculation of volatility and correlations (between commodity prices), the SMA (Simple Moving Average) method is applied to 60 daily time series;
  • the source of market data is mainly EEX, PXE and ICE;
  • the indicator VaR illustrates mainly the impact of revaluation of above-mentioned financial instruments to Income Statement.

Potential impact of the above risk factors as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Monthly VaR (95%) – impact of changes in commodity prices 4,914 11,320

Currency Risks

The required quantitative information on risks (i.e., a potential change of market value resulting from the effects of currency risk as at December 31) was prepared based on the assumptions given below:

  • the indicator of currency risk is defined as the monthly VaR (95% confidence);
  • for the calculation of VaR, which is based on volatility and internal correlations of each considered currency, the method of historical simulation VaR is applied to 90 daily historical time series;
  • the relevant currency position is defined mainly as a value of foreign currency cash flows from all contracted financial instruments, from expected foreign currency operational revenues and costs in 2022 and from highly probable forecasted foreign currency revenues, costs or capital expenditures that are being hedged by financial instruments etc.;
  • the relevant currency positions reflect all significant foreign-currency flows in the monitored basket of foreign currencies;
  • the source of market FX and interest rate data is mainly IS Reuters and IS Bloomberg;
  • the indicator VaR illustrates mainly the impact of revaluation of above-mentioned currency position to Income Statement.

Potential impact of the currency risk as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Monthly currency VaR (95% confidence) 682 437

Interest Risks

For the quantification of the potential impact of the interest risk was chosen the sensitivity of the interest revenue and cost to the parallel shift of yield curves. The approximate quantification as at December 31 was based on these assumptions:

  • parallel shift of the yield curves (+10bp) was selected as the indicator of interest risk;
  • the Income Statement sensitivity is measured as an annual change of the interest revenue and cost resulting from the interest-sensitive positions as at December 31;
  • the considered interest positions reflect all significant interest-sensitive positions;
  • the source of market interest rates is mainly IS Reuters and IS Bloomberg.

Potential impact of the interest rate risk as at December 31 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
IR sensitivity to parallel yield curve shift (+10bp) (5) 1

Credit Exposure

The Company is exposed to credit risk on all financial assets presented in the balance sheet as well as credit risk from provided guarantees. Credit exposure from provided guarantees that are not included in the balance sheet, as at December 31 (millions of CZK):

2022 2021
Guarantees provided to subsidiaries not recorded on balance sheet 9,756 8,059
Guarantees provided to joint-ventures not recorded on balance sheet
Total 9,756 8,059

Provided guarantees are, in particular, warranties for performed contracts and guarantees for bank loans and other liabilities of relevant companies.

1) Contractual maturities for derivatives represent contractual cash out-flows of these instruments, but at the same time the Company will receive corresponding

consideration. For fair values of derivatives see Note 15.

2) Maximum amount of the guarantee is allocated to the earliest period in which the guarantee could be called.

The committed credit facilities available to the Company as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to CZK 50.3 billion and CZK 15.2 billion, respectively. In addition, in December 2022, the Company signed committed loan facility agreement with the European Investment Bank to support financing of the program of renewal and further development of the distribution grid in the Czech Republic up to a total of EUR 790 million, which was not drawn as at December 31, 2022.

16.3. Hedge Accounting

The Company hedges cash flows arising from highly probable future sales of electricity in the Czech Republic. Hedging instrument are futures and forward contracts for electricity sales in Germany. The fair value of these hedging derivatives was CZK (73,096) million and CZK (77,985) million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The result of this hedging strategy as at December 31, 2022, is that for 2023 approximately 75% of expected production in the Czech Republic was hedged at an average price EUR 117 per MWh, for 2024 approximately 47% of expected production at an average price EUR 120 per MWh, for 2025 approximately 21% of expected production at an average price EUR 129 per MWh and for 2026 approximately 2% of expected production at an average price EUR 97 per MWh.

The Company also hedges cash flows arising from highly probable future revenue in EUR for the purposes of currency and interest risk hedging. The hedged cash flows are expected to occur in 2023–2026. The relevant hedging instruments as at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are the EUR denominated liabilities from the issued Eurobonds and bank loans in the total amount of EUR 4 billion and EUR 3.3 billion, respectively, and currency forward contracts and swaps. The fair value of these hedging derivatives was CZK 2,938 million and CZK (325) million as at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

In 2022, the Company also hedged selected cash flow connected to purchase of emission rights, to cover its CO2 emission for the year 2022, for the purpose of hedging the currency risk associated with the time difference between the allocation of emission rights and the payment for their purchase. The hedge was made by currency swaps. The accumulated value of change of fair value revaluation, transferred from the equity to the price of emission rights connected with the hedge for purchase of emission rights amounted to CZK 403 million.

In 2022 and 2021, cash flow hedging amounts transferred from equity were reported in the statement of income in Sales of electricity, heat, and gas, Gains and losses from derivative commodity trading, Other financial expenses and Other financial income. CZK (194) million and CZK 284 million was recognized in profit or loss in 2022 and 2021, respectively, due to ineffectiveness of cash flow hedging. In 2022 and 2021, the ineffectiveness was primarily caused by the fact that the hedged future cash flows were no longer highly probable and by the volatility of electricity price on Czech / German market and unequal price increase / decrease of the electricity on Czech and German market.

17. Provisions

The following is a summary of the provisions at December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

2022 2021

17.1. Nuclear Provisions

The Company operates two nuclear power plants. The Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant comprises four units commissioned for continuous operation in 1985 to 1987. The Temelín Nuclear Power Plant consists of two units that were commissioned for continuous operation in 2002 and 2003. The Nuclear Energy Act sets down obligations for nuclear facility decommissioning and disposal of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel. In accordance with the Nuclear Energy Act, all the nuclear parts and equipment of a nuclear power plant must be disposed of after the end of operation. For the purpose of determining the amount of nuclear provisions, it is estimated that the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant will stop generating electricity in 2047; the Temelín plant in 2062. Studies for the Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and for the Temelín Nuclear Power Plant from 2020 assume that the total costs of decommissioning of so-called nuclear island and conventional part of these power plants will reach the amount CZK 32.2 billion and CZK 24.1 billion, respectively. The Company makes contributions to a restricted bank accounts in the amount of the nuclear provisions recorded under the Nuclear Energy Act. These funds can be invested in government bonds in accordance with legislation. These restricted financial assets are reported in the balance sheet as part of the line item Restricted financial assets, net (see Note 4).

The Ministry of Industry and Trade established the Radioactive Waste Repository Authority (SÚRAO) as the central organizer and operator of facilities for the final disposal of radioactive waste and spent fuel. The SÚRAO operates, supervises and is responsible for disposal facilities and for disposal of radioactive waste and spent fuel therein. The activities of the SÚRAO are financed through a nuclear account funded by the originators of radioactive waste. Contribution to the nuclear account is stated by Nuclear Energy Act at CZK 55 per MWh produced at nuclear power plants. In 2022 and 2021, the payments to the nuclear account amounted to CZK 1,706 million and CZK 1,690 million, respectively. The originator of radioactive waste and spent fuel directly covers all costs associated with interim storage of radioactive waste and spent fuel.

The Company has established provisions for estimated future expenses on nuclear decommissioning and interim storage and permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel in accordance with the principles described in Note 2.21.

The following is a summary of the nuclear provisions for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in CZK millions):

Nuclear

Provision charged in profit or loss 586 586
Effect of change in estimate recognized in profit or loss 957 957
Effect of change in estimate added to fixed assets 16,183 275 16,458
Current cash expenditures (698) (1,706) (2,404)
Balance at December 31, 2022 58,901 11,043 40,968 110,912

The use of the provision for permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel in a current year comprises payments made to the government-controlled nuclear account and the use of the provision for interim storage represents, in particular, purchases of containers for spent nuclear fuel and other related equipment for these purposes.

In 2022, the Company recorded the change in estimated provision for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel. The change relates to the change in expectations of future storage cost and change in discount rate. The change in estimated provision for nuclear decommissioning is due to the update of the amount and scope of the decommissioning costs for Dukovany Nuclear Power Plant and for Temelín Nuclear Power Plant and due to the change in discount rate. The change in estimated provision for long-term spent fuel storage is connected with the modification of the expected output of the nuclear power plants, change of expected contribution to the nuclear account per MWh in future years and change in discount rate.

In 2021, the Company recorded the change in estimate for interim storage of spent nuclear fuel in connection with the change in expectations of future storage cost and change in discount rate, the change in estimate in provision for nuclear decommissioning in connection with the change in discount rate and the change in long-term spent fuel storage in connection with the modification of the expected output of the nuclear power plants, change of expected contribution to the nuclear account per MWh in future years and change in discount rate.

The actual costs of nuclear decommissioning, interim storage, and permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel may vary substantially from the above estimates due to changes in legislation or technology or increase in labor costs and the costs of materials and equipment, as well as due to a different timing of all activities relating to nuclear decommissioning and storage and disposal of spent nuclear fuel.

Members of the Board of Directors and selected managers are in the new long-term bonus program since January 1, 2020. The program of long-term performance bonus is based on performance units that will be allocated to each beneficiary every year. The number of performance units allocated is based on the defined yearly value of a given long-term bonus and the price of share before the allocation. The Supervisory Board sets out the performance indicators for each year's allocation of the performance units. The defined performance indicators will be evaluated by the Supervisory Board and number of performance units allocated to a beneficiary will be adjusted accordingly. Then a two-year holding period will follow. The long-term performance bonus will be paid three years after the initial allocation, and the amount will be based on the adjusted number of performance units as well as on the share price at the end of the holding period and the amount of dividends distributed during the holding period.

Cost of cash-settled share-based payments related to the long-term performance bonus program for 2022 and 2021 was CZK 37 million and CZK 72 million, respectively. Liabilities from payments tied to shares as at 31 December 2022 and 2021 amounted to CZK 109 million and CZK 72 million, respectively.

33. Income Taxes

The Company calculated corporate income tax in accordance with the Czech tax regulations at the rate of 19% in 2022 and 2021.

Pursuant to Act No. 366/2022 Coll. the Company's taxable income is further burdened with an increased tax rate of 60%, so-called windfall tax, starting on January 1, 2023 and lasting until December 31, 2025. It is a component of corporate income tax.

The tax base for windfall tax is the difference between the comparative tax base and the average of the comparative tax bases from years 2018–2021 increased by 20%. The Company plans to use the legal ability to move tax bases within the group of companies with windfall profits.

This increased tax rate affects the calculation of deferred income tax. Tax rates for calculating deferred tax in individual years were calculated as a share of the sum of corporate income tax and windfall tax, where the denominator is the total (compared) tax base.

The estimated effective income tax rates for the calculation of deferred tax in the future years are as follows:

2023 69%
2024 74%
2025 74%
2026 and thereafter 19%

The Company's management believes that the tax expense was recognized in the financial statements in an appropriate amount. However, it cannot be ruled out that the relevant tax authorities may take a different view on issues allowing for different interpretations of the law, which could have an impact on the reported income.

The components of the income tax provision were as follows (in CZK millions):

2022 2021
Current income tax charge (16,162) (2,044)
Deferred income taxes 2,303 723

37. War in Ukraine

Since February 24, 2022, a military conflict is going on in Ukraine. The Company continuously evaluates the potential impacts, including the consequences of subsequent sanctions imposed on the Russian Federation, and takes adequate measures. The impacts on the Company are significant especially regarding the fundamental effects of the war in Ukraine on the wholesale electricity and natural gas markets, on supplier relations, payments, on macroeconomic developments and on the regulatory measures of states. The biggest challenge was ensuring sufficient liquidity to cover margin calls on the stock exchanges related to the securing of negotiated trades as well as ensuring the supply of nuclear fuel for 2022 and subsequent years, and the need to replace Russian suppliers of maintenance services and of development of generation assets.

The ongoing conflict brings significant uncertainty regarding the future prediction of the Company financial results. The most significant sources of risks and opportunities for the Company business in the future include:

    1. High price volatility on the wholesale electricity market, which means a significant increase in liquidity risk.
    1. Limitation or cessation of supplies of natural gas transported by gas pipelines from Russia to Europe, which affects the Company mainly through impacts on the electricity market, because the Company does not purchase any gas from Russian entities.
    1. Possibility of unpredictable actions by foreign states in relation to contracted capacities, stored supplies and natural gas transport ways from abroad to the Czech Republic.
    1. Limitation of economic development in Europe.
    1. Influence on political changes consisting in higher regulation or other specific taxation of selected areas of business.
    1. Worsen possibilities and availability of ensuring the maintenance of production facilities and supplies of nuclear fuel with regard to the impact of sanctions and measures limiting the supply of services and materials from selected countries and regions.
    1. Risk of declining customer payment discipline due to rising commodity prices, despite the existence of price caps on electricity and natural gas for end customers, and due to generally high inflation rate.
    1. Risk of an escalation of the military conflict from Ukraine to other countries in Europe, and the associated increase in uncertainty and restrictions on the markets, including the imposition of additional sanctions and measures by the states of the European Union or Russia, which may further limit mutual trade, commodity supplies, transport routes and method of cross-border payments.

The impact of the above-mentioned risks and opportunities on the Company's business in the middle-term cannot be objectively quantified in view of other fundamental factors operating simultaneously (especially the effect of inflation, the effect of the European Green Deal initiative and EU energy sector regulation, political and economic developments in Europe and in the Czech Republic).

38. Commitments and Contingencies

Investment Plans

Capital expenditures for the next five years as at December 31, 2022, are estimated as follows (in CZK billion):

2023 22.2
2024 30.5
2025 38.2
2026 55.3
2027 57.9
Total 204.1

The above mentioned values do not include planned acquisitions of subsidiaries, associates and joint-ventures.

The Company reviews regularly investment plan and actual construction may vary from the above estimates. At December 31, 2022, significant purchase commitments were outstanding in connection with the investment plan.

Insurance Matters

The Nuclear Energy Act sets limits for liabilities for nuclear damages so that the operator of nuclear installations is liable for up to CZK 8 billion per incident. The Nuclear Energy Act limits the liability for damage caused by other activities (such as transportation) to CZK 2 billion. The Nuclear Energy Act also requires an operator to insure its liability connected with the operation of a nuclear power plant up to a minimum of CZK 2 billion and up to a minimum of CZK 300 million for other activities (such as transportation). The Company concluded the above-mentioned insurance policies with company Generali Česká pojišťovna a.s. (representing the Czech Nuclear Insurance Pool) and European Liability Insurance for the Nuclear Industry. The Company has obtained all insurance policies with minimal limits as required by the law.

The Company also maintains the insurance policies covering the assets of its coal-fired, hydroelectric, CCGT and nuclear power plants and general third-party liability insurance in connection with main operations of the Company.

39. Events after the Balance Sheet Date

As a result of the merger, the net assets of the defunct company Elektrárna Dětmarovice, a.s., were transferred to ČEZ, a. s., as the successor company on January 1, 2023.

As a result of spin-off by merger as of January 1, 2023, part of the net assets of ČEZ ICT Services, a. s., was transferred to ČEZ, a. s., as the successor company.

During January and February, the Company concluded credit agreements of the Schuldscheindarlehen type (an unsecured loan funded by private investors governed by German law) in the amount of EUR 330 million. This is the second and third part of drawing loans with two to five-year maturities in order to cover liquidity risks associated with potential peaks in requirements for temporary extraordinary increases in margin calls on energy stock exchanges and towards business trading counterparties.

On February 1, 2023, an agreement on the sale and purchase of shares of the company ÚJV Řež, a. s., representing a 17.39% stake in the company's share capital, was signed with the subsidiary ŠKODA JS a.s.

On February 8, 2023, the Company initiated arbitration proceedings against Gazprom Export LLC by filing an arbitration claim. ČEZ, a. s., claims damages in the amount of around CZK 1 billion as a result of a significant reduction in natural gas supplies in 2022 by Gazprom Export LLC.

These separate financial statements have been authorized for issue on March 20, 2023.

The report below is an unsigned translation of an independent auditor's report which relates solely and exclusively to the official annual report prepared in XHTML format dated on 20 March 2023. Signed independent auditor's report relates to the financial statements and official annual report prepared in accordance with the provisions of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European single electronic format ("ESEF Regulation"). The attached annual report is a copy of the official annual report prepared in accordance with the ESEF Regulation and therefore does not constitute a statutory annual report and, as well as this copy of the auditor's report, is therefore not a legally binding document.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Shareholders of ČEZ, a. s.:

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of ČEZ, a. s. (hereinafter also the "Company") prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS EU"), which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2022, and the statement of income, the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of the Company, see Note 1 to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of ČEZ, a. s. as at 31 December 2022, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the IFRS EU.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Act on Auditors, Regulation (EU) No. 537/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council, and Auditing Standards of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic, which are International Standards on Auditing (ISAs), as amended by the related application clauses. Our responsibilities under this law and regulation are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Act on Auditors and the Code of Ethics adopted by the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial statements.

Impairment of assets

The Company conducts annual impairment tests of assets' balances. The impairment test involves determining the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit as a whole or individual assets, which corresponds to the value in use or selling price less cost to sell. Value in use is the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from a cash-generating unit.

These calculations of potential impairment amounts are a key audit matter as there is a significant uncertainty in relation to regulatory matters or government support for renewable energy, which are, together with other significant assumptions included in the estimated future cash flows, main inputs to the calculations. Main assumptions that are subject to significant estimation uncertainty are projected future wholesale electricity prices, prices of emission allowances, market access, development of the regulatory environment and discount rates as well as the strategy of the Company. Future cash flows relate to events and actions that have not yet occurred and may not occur. Another reason for impairment to be a key audit matter is the fact that the determination of cash-generating unit is to some extent subject to management judgement.

Our procedures included assessing the assumptions and methodologies used by the Company in their value in use models and assessment of the selling price less cost to sell. We involved our internal valuation specialists in assessing the adequacy of the Company's model used for the calculation of weighted average cost of capital and we also evaluated mathematical accuracy, underlying data and assumptions used in the calculation. We evaluated main assumptions that are subject to significant estimates such as future wholesale electricity prices, prices of emission allowances, development of the regulatory environment and compared them to those observable on the market. We compared electricity prices as well as the prices of emission allowances to the contracts, which are actively traded on the market, and we assessed reasonableness of the Company's projections of these future prices for periods, for which the market data are not available. We also discussed the assumptions with our internal valuation specialists in the respective countries.

We analyzed the budgets and future cash flows of the cash-generating units. We compared the expected developments in budgeted cash flows to the expectations presented by the management while assessing the main assumptions of the models and discussing alternatives. We also assessed the adequacy of the model used for the impairment test calculation together with the definition of the cash-generating units and mathematical accuracy of the calculations.

We also focused on whether the Company's disclosures in the financial statements in relation to the impairment of assets, as presented and disclosed in Notes 3. Property, Plant and Equipment, 5. Other Financial Assets, Net and 30. Impairment of Financial Assets, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

Due to the significance of financial instruments measured at fair value, and a high degree of judgement related to their valuation, we consider this as a key audit matter.

We involved the internal valuation specialists to assist us in performing our audit procedures. We assessed the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the valuation, data integrity, independent price verification and model approval.

For areas of higher risk and estimation, our audit procedures focused on the comparison of judgments made to market practice and reperformance of valuations over a selection of instruments, assessing the key inputs, assumptions and models used in the valuation process. We compared our results with the Company's valuation.

We also focused on whether the Company's disclosures in the financial statements in relation to the valuation of financial instruments, as presented and disclosed in Note 15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Classification of commodity contracts

The Company is entering into commodity contracts on different markets and platforms mainly in Central Europe and Germany. Commodity trading activities include trading with electricity, gas, emission allowances, oil and coal.

This is a key audit matter as the distinction between the contracts in scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, which are treated as derivatives at fair value, and "own use" contracts, which are not remeasured to fair value, might be subject to a judgement and classification patterns set by the Company. This classification depends among other factors on the terms of the contract, whether the contract is considered to have been entered into as part of ordinary business activity, whether contract requires physical delivery of the commodity, and depends on various assumptions such as expected amount of commodity to be delivered, generation capacity of the portfolio mix and prices of commodities.

We tested the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over the initial recognition of the contract, consistency of the commodity contract designation and the Company's ability to deliver the physical commodity over the contractual period.

We performed audit procedures focusing on the analysis and comparison of volume of commodities physically delivered during 2022 and the volumes of the "own use" contracts portfolio. We reviewed the ability of the Company to physically deliver the contracted future "own use" sales retrospectively and prospectively and the stability of portfolio to ensure that the contracts are not reclassified during their existence.

We also focused on whether the Company's disclosures in the financial statements in relation to the commodity contracts classification, as presented and disclosed in Notes 2.14. Commodity Contracts and 23. Gains and Losses from Commodity Derivative Trading, are compliant with the IFRS EU.

Other Information

In compliance with Section 2(b) of the Act on Auditors, the other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and auditor's report thereon. The Board of Directors is responsible for the other information.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. In addition, we assess whether the other information has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with applicable law or regulation, in particular, whether the other information complies with law or regulation in terms of formal requirements and procedure for preparing the other information in the context of materiality, i.e. whether any non-compliance with these requirements could influence judgments made on the basis of the other information.

Based on the procedures performed, to the extent we are able to assess it, we report that:

  • The other information describing the facts that are also presented in the financial statements is, in all material respects, consistent with the financial statements; and
  • The other information is prepared in compliance with applicable law or regulation.

In addition, our responsibility is to report, based on the knowledge and understanding of the Company obtained in the audit, on whether the other information contains any material misstatement. Based on the procedures we have performed on the other information obtained, we have not identified any material misstatement.

Responsibilities of the Board of Directors, the Supervisory Board, and the Audit Committee for the Financial Statements

The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the IFRS EU and for such internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

The Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with above regulations will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the above law or regulation, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Supervisory Board and the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

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 or ČEZ. In general, these indicators are also commonly used in other commercial companies, not only in the energy sector.

Indicator: Adjusted net income (After-Tax Income, Adjusted)
Purpose: This is a supporting indicator, intended primarily for investors, creditors, and shareholders, which allows
interpreting 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 impairments 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 taxes.

Most of the calculation components of individual indicators are directly shown in financial statements. Components of calculations that are not included in the financial statements are usually shown directly in a company's books and are calculated as follows:

Adjusted Net Income Indicator (After-Tax Income, Adjusted)—Calculation for the Period under Review

Unit 2021 2022
Net income CZK billions 9.9 80.7
Impairments of property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets
(including impairment of goodwill) 1)
CZK billions 15.8 (2.9)
Impairments of developed projects 2) CZK billions (0.0)
Effects of additions to or reversals of impairments on income tax 3) CZK billions (1.7) 0.5
Other extraordinary effects 4) CZK billions (1.7)
Adjusted net income CZK billions 22.3 78.4

1) Corresponds to the total value reported in the row Impairment of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss. 2) Included in the row Other operating expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss.

3) Included in the row Income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss.

4) In 2021, the adjustment consists of a correction of adjustment of the net income by the part of impairments of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets (including the related effect on income tax) that relates—based on its characteristics—to the current year. These were impairments on fixed assets of the companies sold in Romania and Bulgaria in 2021, reflecting the income earned over this period, which effectively accrues to the buyers given the "locked box date" (defined in the asset sale agreements).
