The band structures and the magnetic properties of Co_{3}V_{2}O_{8} compound have been calculated by ab initio scalar-relativistic full potential local orbital method within the local spin density approximation. The band calculations were performed for para-, ferro-, and antiferromagnetic Co_{3}V_{2}O_{8} compounds. The main contribution to the density of states at the Fermi energy comes from minority 3d states of cobalt atoms.
