CEZ waits for its privatization in 2001

Article Abstract:

CEZ (Prague, Czech Republic), power company, expects to be privatized in 2001. The term will probably be postponed to 1H 2002. CEZ's share on the Czech electric power market decreased to 64.9% in 2000 compared to 72.9% in 1999. The firm compensated the drop of domestic sales by the growth of exports, which were realized due to the low price of electric power. CEZ's total proceeds decreased by 1.4% to CEK 53.1 bil in 2000 compared to 1999. CEZ saw a net profit of CEK 5.8 bil in 2000 compared to a profit of CEK 2.2 bil in 1999. The majority of the profit growth, CEK 2.6 bil, was represented by the low formation of reserves and rectifying items and the stoppage of the retrofit of the power station Tusimice, the Czech Republic.
