CEZ Group earned CZK 14.2 billion in the first quarter, a year-on-year increase by 43%.
CEZ Group's net income in the first quarter of 2020 reached CZK 14.2 billion, a year-on-year increase by CZK 4.2 billion. Operating profit before write-offs (EBITDA) grew by 22% to CZK 25.9 billion. The significant increase in profit is mainly caused by the growth of realization prices of generated electricity in the Czech Republic due to multi-year pre-sales on wholesale markets in Germany and additional profits from commodity trading.
