ČEZ, a. s. ("ČEZ" or "the Company") is a Czech joint-stock company, owned 69.8% (70.1% of voting rights) at March 31, 2021 by the Czech Republic represented by the Ministry of Finance. The remaining shares of the Company are publicly held. 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"). Main business of the Group is the generation, distribution, trade and sale of electricity and heat, trade and sale of natural gas, provision of complex energy services and coal mining.
The interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and have not been audited by an independent auditor. The interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statement as of December 31, 2020.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statement as of December 31, 2020.
As of January 1, 2021, the Group did not adopt any new International Financial Reporting Standard that would have a significant impact on Group's interim consolidated financial statements.
The seasonality within the segments Generation, Distribution and Sales usually takes effect in such a way that the revenues and operating profits of these segments for the 1st and 4th quarters of a calendar year are slightly higher than the revenues and operating profits achieved in the remaining period.
On October 22, 2020, a share purchase agreement was concluded for the sale of the interests in Romanian companies Distributie Energie Oltenia S.A., CEZ Vanzare S.A., CEZ Romania S.A. (including its interest in TMK Hydroenergy Power S.R.L.), Tomis Team S.A. (including its interest in M.W. Team Invest S.R.L.) and Ovidiu Development S.A. From that date, the assets and related liabilities were classified as held for sale and tested for possible impairment with respect to the sale price. In the first quarter of 2021, the Group recognized an impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets in the amount of CZK 1,145 million, which was reported in the income statement on the line Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
The transaction was settled on March 31, 2021. The total sale price for the shares in the Romanian companies was paid in full and the Group transferred control over the sold subsidiaries.

The Group reports its result using four reportable operating segments:
The segments are defined across the countries in which CEZ Group operates. Segment is a functionally autonomous part of CEZ Group that serves a single part of the value chain in the energy sector. The structure of the segments has changed since 2021. The substance of the change is the merging of the segments Generation – Traditional Energy and Generation – New Energy into a new segment Generation. The main reason is the fact that the development of renewable sources in CEZ Group will take place primarily within existing companies now operating mainly traditional energy, and not in existing companies in the original Generation – New Energy segment or in newly acquired companies. Furthermore, the Support Services segment was abolished, especially with regard to the dissolution of the company ČEZ Korporátní služby. Data by segments for the previous period of 2020 were 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 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The reconciliation of EBITDA to income before other income (expenses) and income taxes summarizes the following table (in CZK millions):
| 1-3/2021 | 1-3/2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| Income before other income (expenses) and income | ||
| taxes (EBIT) | 11,235 | 18,807 |
| Depreciation and amortization | 6,681 | 7,330 |
| Impairment of property, plant and equipment and | ||
| intangible assets | 2,051 | (256) |
| Gains and losses on sale of property, plant and | ||
| equipment, net * | (47) | (20) |
| EBITDA | 19,920 | 25,861 |
* Gains on sale of property, plant and equipment are presented in the statement of income as part of the line item Other operating income. Losses on sale of property, plant and equipment are presented in the statement of income as part of the line item Other operating expenses.
The following tables summarize segment information by operating segments for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 and at December 31, 2020 (in CZK millions):
