CEZ yesterday released its full-year 2002 CAS consolidated figures, in which net income was reported at CZK 7.3 bil., up from CZK 7.8 bil. in 2001. Unconsolidated 2002 CAS figures were released a month ago (net income of CZK 6.7 bil). Both CAS figures are largely ignored by the market, which awaits the company`s IAS results, due to be released on April 16. The expected IAS net income is CZK 9 bil.
