ČEZ earns prestigious anti-bribery management certification
ČEZ successfully met the conditions of the ISO 37001:2016 anti-bribery management systems certification, focused on preventing corruptive behaviour. Due to the covid epidemic, the certification process stretched over nearly two years. ČEZ is the first partly state-owned company and the first energy company in Central Europe to achieve compliance with the international standard. Minimisation of the risk of corruption and expanding effective measures to prevent and address problems related to corruption is a key criterion in the ESG assessment of a company’s management.

CEZ Group Earned CZK 5.1 Billion in 3Q 2021
Operating profit before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for Q1-Q3 reached CZK 47.5 billion, down by CZK 3.4 billion year on year. The year-on-year decrease is due to the sale of the Romanian and Bulgarian assets in 2021, which resulted in a shorter period of time during which CEZ Group consolidated the results of the assets sold into its results in 2021, and thus CZK 3.1 billion less year on year. CEZ Group refines its full-year EBITDA guidance to CZK 59 to 60 billion, while its expected Net Profit adjusted for extraordinary effects is expected to reach CZK 19 to 21 billion.
