MESSAGE FROM THE CEO

 

 

The first quarter of 2020 was marked by the outbreak of the new coronavirus in Brazil. Early in March, the Company set up a Crisis Committee, which held daily meetings and relied on strong engagement from the entire Management, thereby ensuring quick decision-making. All the actions taken always gave priority to the health and safety of our more than 12,000 employees, though they also focused on the Group's financial health, the full continuity of our business, the preservation of business partners and society in general.

As for the operating results of the 1st quarter, electricity sales in the concession area of distributors totaled 17,442 GWh, decreasing 1.6%. The residential and commercial segments declined 2.9% and 2.0%, respectively, essentially due to milder temperatures during the period compared to the same period in 2019. The industrial segment registered a decline of 1.4%, mainly due to the migration of two major clients to the basic network and also due to the continued weak industrial production in Brazil during the quarter.

However, I wish to highlight the economic and financial performance, given that we once again achieved significant results. EBITDA reached R$1,696 million and Net Income was R$904 million in 1Q20, respectively 10.8% and 58.5% higher than in the same period in 2019. The Distribution segment reported strong performance, with EBITDA of R$1,137 million in 1Q20 (+16.0%), mainly reflecting the results of tariff adjustments at CPFL Paulista (April 2019) and RGE (June 2019) and the tariff review at CPFL Piratininga (October 2019).

We continue to work on value-creation initiatives and on our investment plan in 1Q20 with the same financial discipline, engagement and commitment of our teams. We invested R$516 million during this period, an increase of 15.9%.

CPFL Energia's net debt reached 2.21 times its EBITDA at the end of March, as per the measurement criterion of our financial covenants, maintaining the consolidated leverage of the group at adequate levels. Our cash position also deserves mention: in line with our funding plan for 2020, we raised R$ 2.9 billion through new funding operations in the 1st quarter at an average cost of CDI + 0.8% p.a. and for a term of 4 years.

I also wish to highlight the return of “CPFE3” this quarter to the Ibovespa index, the flagship index of the São Paulo stock exchange (B3), less than one year after our re-IPO. We also won two awards: the first was “Equities deal of the year 2020 - America” from The Banker, a Financial Times publication, for our Re-IPO operation; and the second one was received by CPFL Santa Cruz from the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (Aneel) as the best distributor in the country for Global Continuity Performance (DGC) in 2019.

Finally, I wish to state that CPFL Energia acted and continues to act in a timely manner to safeguard its employees and its operations during the pandemic and is now working simultaneously on a robust plan for the post-crisis period. To this end, I reaffirm our trust and commitment to shareholders, clients, partners, society and other stakeholders, while remaining optimistic about the advances in the Brazilian electricity sector despite this difficult moment that we are going through, and am confident about our business platform, backed by operational efficiency, corporate governance, sustainability, financial discipline and synergistic growth, as we are increasingly prepared to face the emerging challenges and opportunities in the country.

Dividend Policy

On May 21, 2019, CPFL Energia announced to its shareholders and to the market that its Board of Directors approved, at the meeting held on that date, the adoption of a dividend distribution policy, which determines that the Company should distribute annually, as dividends, at least 50% of the adjusted net income, in accordance with the Brazilian Corporate Law. Furthermore, the Dividend Policy sets out the factors that will influence the amount of the distributions, as well as other issues considered relevant by the Board of Directors and the shareholders. The Dividend Policy also highlights that certain obligations contained in the Company’s financial contracts may limit the amount of dividends and/or interest on own capital that may be distributed.

The approved Dividend Policy is merely indicative, with the purpose of signaling to the market the treatment that the Company intends to give to the distribution of dividends to its shareholders, having, therefore, a programmatic character, not binding upon the Company or its governing bodies.

The Dividend Policy is available at the Investor Relations website http://www.cpfl.com.br/ir.

In 1Q20, sales in the concession area, made through the distribution segment, totaled 17,442 GWh, a reduction of 1.6%. If we disregard the migration of large consumers to the basic network and the significant reduction in the amount of energy contracted by two permissionaires1, sales in the concession area in 1Q20 would have changed by -0.8%.

 


1 RGE, acting as Supplying Agent, accepted a reduction in the contracted energy amount, requested by two permissionaires according to the PRORET (Tariff Regulation Procedures) -  Submodule 11.1.

    iii.        Actions with the police in 35 cases, culminating in leading people to the police station for prison or indictments for energy theft;

   iv.        Cut out of 37,000 inactivated consumer units;

    v.        Telemetry installation with inspection and meter replacement for 1,000 group A customers;

   vi.        Implementation of armored measuring boxes for 1,100 customers;

  vii.        Regularization of 400 clandestine consumers;

 viii.        Replacing obsolete / defective meters with new electronic meters;

   ix.        Disclosure of CPFL Energia's balance of energy fraud and theft in the media, intensifying communication that energy theft is a crime and subject to penalties. In the first quarter of 2020, more than 13 press releases were recorded, totaling 115 articles on the topic mentioning CPFL group.

 

2.1.4) SAIDI and SAIFI

Notes:

1)     ANEEL limit;

2)     Since 2019, the RGE and RGE Sul concessions have been unified, becoming a single distributor for the purpose of calculating technical indicators

 

The annualized figures of SAIDI and SAIFI in 1Q20 were lower than in 1Q19 (-9.6% in SAIDI and -4.7% in SAIFI) for the consolidated of the distributors. These results reflect maintenance actions and investments in improvements in the CPFL Energia group's distributors. Furthermore, the concession areas had a lower number of occurrences and bad weather if compared to 2019.

 

2.1.5) Delinquency

 

 

The ADA decreased by R$ 10 million (15.0%) in 1Q20 compared to 1Q19. In comparison to 4Q19, there was an increase of 46.4% (R$ 18 million). This increase was mainly due to the lower volume of negotiations, which totaled R$ 3 million in 1Q20 versus an amount of R$ 18 million in 4Q19.

In order to combat the advance in the level of defaults accentuated by the economic situation in the country in recent years, CPFL has intensified collection actions, highlighting:

9


 
 

 

  1. The CPFL Group executed 605 thousand suspensions in the energy supply due to non-payment, representing an increase of 30% if compared 1Q19 (464 thousand). In comparison to 4Q19, growth was 2%;
  2. Implementation of installments with a credit card offering greater convenience to the customer and mitigating the risk of default for the company. In line with CPFL's digitization strategy, in March 2020 this modality represented 23% of the installments made through digital channels;
  3. 270,000 installments made for group B customers, of which 71% were made online.

 

2.2) Conventional and Renewable Generation

2.2.1) Installed Capacity

In 1Q20, the Generation installed capacity of CPFL Energia group, considering the proportional stake in each project, is of 4,304 MW.

In 1Q20, net financial revenue was of R$ 121 million, a variation of R$ 341 million if compared to the net financial expense observed in 1Q19. The items explaining this variation are as follows:

(i)           Variation of R$ 260 million in the mark-to-market (non-cash effect). This significant variation was mainly due to the high level of new funds raised (R$ 2.9 billion) in foreign currency, with swap to CDI, in the beginning of the year, at an average cost of CDI + 0.80%, right before a relevant deterioration of credit market conditions as a result of the economic crisis generated by covid-19;

(ii)          Reduction of 21.7% (R$ 67 million) in the expenses with the net debt (debt charges net of income from financial investments), reflecting the reduction in interest rate (CDI) and the lower net indebtedness (for further details, see item 3.2.1 – Debt IFRS).

(iii)         Positive variation of R$ 14 million in other financial revenues/expenses.

 

Income Tax and Social Contribution

In 1Q20, Income Tax and Social Contribution recorded an increase of 44.6% (R$ 150 million), mainly explained by the variation on Income before Taxes. The effective tax rate, that was 37.1% in 1Q19, went to 35.0% in 1Q20.

 

Net Income

Net income was of R$ 904 million in 1Q20, registering an increase of 58.5% (R$ 334 million). In addition to a good EBITDA performance, the gain recorded in financial results due to the mark-to-market of debts also contributed to this result.

In 1Q20, the net financial result recorded a net financial expense of R$ 206 million, compared to a net financial expense of R$ 60 million in 1Q19. The items that explain this variation are:

           (i)        Variation of R$ 259 million in market to market (non-cash effect). This significant variation was mainly due to the high level of new funds raised (R$ 2.6 billion) in foreign currency, with swap to CDI, in the beginning of the year, at an average cost of CDI + 0.80%, right before a relevant deterioration of credit market conditions as a result of the economic crisis generated by covid-19;

          (ii)        Increase of 23.9% (R$ 21 million) in late payment interest and fines;

         (iii)        Decrease of 12.5% (R$ 20 million) in the expenses with net debt due to the fall in the interest rate (CDI);

Partially offset by:

(i)           Increase of 72.4% (R$ 20 million) in sectoral financial assets update;

(ii)          Variation of R$ 14 million in others items of financial revenues and expenses.

 

Net Income

Net Income totaled R$ 728 million in 1Q20, an increase of 56.6% (R$ 263 million). In addition to the good performance of EBITDA, the gain recorded in the financial result due to the mark-to-market of debts also contributed to this result.

Operating Revenue

In 1Q20, the Gross Operating Revenue reached R$ 332 million, an increase of 10.4% (R$ 31 million). The Net Operating Revenue was of R$ 300 million, an increase of 11.3% (R$ 31 million).

The main factors that affected the net operating revenue were:

  • Increase of R$ 22 million in the revenue with Power Supply, mainly due to contracts readjustment  in CPFL Geração and Ceran;
  • Increase of R$ 8 million in the Infrastructure Construction Revenue, related to the beginning of the construction of transmission lines and substations; this revenue has counterpart in operating costs;
  • Increase of 16% (R$ 2 million) in other operating revenues, due to the Baesa agreement and the increase in the revenue of the transmission projects in operation;

31


 
 

 

These effects were partially offset by:

  • Increase of 9.3% (R$ 3 million) of PIS/COFINS.

 

Cost of Electric Power

In 1Q20, the cost of electricity reached R$ 29 million, maintaining the level of the same period in 2019.

The main factors that explain these variations:

Barra Grande:

In 1Q20, the net revenue remained stable (-2.8%), while there was also an increase in operational costs (26.2%) due to the higher short-term energy purchased. The decrease in the financial result was due to higher expenses with UBP, impacted by IGP-M variation.

 

Campos Novos:

In 1Q20, there was an increase of 16.3% in net revenue, mainly due to seasonality of the contracts and annual readjustments, partially offset by the increase of 53.2% in operating costs and expenses, due to higher short-term energy purchased. In the financial result, there was a decrease of 34.7% due to lower expenses with debt, partially offset by higher expenses with UBP (IGP-M variation).

 

Foz do Chapecó:

In 1Q20, there was an increase of 8.2% in the net revenue, mainly due to the seasonality of the contracts and annual readjustments. In the financial result, there was an increase of 23.9% due to higher expanses with UBP reflecting IGP-M and IPCA variations in the period, partially offset by of lower expenses with debt.

 

Epasa:

In 1Q20, there was a lower volume of generation, affecting net revenues and operating costs, partially offset by the overhaul in 1Q19.

 

EBITDA

In 1Q20, the EBITDA was of R$ 323 million, a decrease of 6.3% (R$ 19 million), largely explained by contracts readjustment and partially offset by the Epasa’s performance.

Operating Revenue

In 1Q20, Gross Operating Revenue reached R$ 410 million, representing an increase of 16.0% (R$ 56 million). Net Operating Revenue reached R$ 385 million, representing an increase of 15.1% (R$ 50 million). These variations are mainly explained by the following factors:

 

SHPPs Source:

·        Increase of R$ 47 million in revenue from SHPPs, mainly due to the different strategy of seasonal adjustment of physical guarantee in the agreements between the periods, partially offset by the GSF exposure.

 

Biomass Source:

·        Increase of R$ 17 million in biomass revenue, mainly due to the strategy of contract seasonalization (higher in 1Q20) and the higher generation.

 

Wind Source and Holding Company:

·        Reduction of R$ 14 million in revenue from wind farms and the Holding Company, mainly due to the lower generation of wind complexes, partially offset by hedge operations settled at the PLD price.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Operating Costs and Expenses reached R$ 252 million in 1Q20, compared to R$ 249 million in 1Q19, representing an increase of 1.2% (R$ 3 million). The factors that explain these variations follow:

The PMSO item reached R$ 90 million in 1Q20, compared to R$ 89 million in 1Q19, an increase of 1.0% (R$ 1 million).

 

Other operating costs and expenses

Other operating costs and expenses, represented by Depreciation and Amortization accounts, reached R$ 163 million in 1Q20, increase of 1.3% (R$ 2 million).

 

EBITDA

In 1Q20, EBITDA was of R$ 223 million, compared to R$ 192 million in 1Q19, an increase of 16.0% (R$ 31 million). This result is mainly due to: (i) the different strategy of seasonal adjustment of physical guarantee in the agreements, between the periods, in the SHPPs (R$ 54 million); (ii) the strategy of contract seasonalization (higher in 1Q20) and the higher generation in biomass plants (R$ 15 million); and (iii) inflation over energy contracts (R$ 12 million). These items were partially offset by the GSF exposure (SHPPs) (R$ 29 million) and the lower generation of wind complexes (R$ 25 million).

In 1Q20, net financial result registered a net financial expense of R$ 73 million, a reduction of 34.9% (R$ 39 million). This variation is basically explained by the reductions: (i) of 35.8% (R$ 36 million) in expenses with the net debt (debt charges, net of income from financial investments), due to the reduction in interest rates (CDI and TJLP) and lower indebtedness; and (ii) of 26.3% (R$ 3 million) in other effects.

 

Net Income

In 1Q20, net loss was of R$ 29 million, compared to the net loss of R$ 93 million in 1Q19, a reduction of 68.3% (R$ 64 million). This performance reflects the improvement in EBITDA and financial result, partially offset by the worsening of the income tax and social contribution item.
