5. As discussed in Note 3 - item (b) to the financial statements, the status of the tariff revisions and adjustments of the subsidiary Companhia Paulista de Força e Luz (“CPFL Paulista”) is as follows: (i) the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) definitively changed, on April 6, 2005, the percentage related to the periodic tariff revision of 2003 for CPFL Paulista. In addition, CPFL Paulista recognized the amount of R$ 33,100 thousand, in long-term assets, related to the difference between the regulatory depreciation rate of 4.64% p.a., used by ANEEL to calculate the “quota de reintegração” (regulatory depreciation – accounting depreciation), and the percentage of 4.85%, calculated by CPFL Paulista based on the information provided to the concession authority. CPFL Paulista’s management calculated the regulatory depreciation rate of 4.85% p.a., which was subject to a specific inspection by ANEEL. CPFL Paulista is awaiting the final approval of this claim by ANEEL’s directors. CPFL Paulista’s management considers that these discussions will have a successful outcome and that the respective asset will be realized.

6. The individual and consolidated financial statements and supplementary information contained in Appendices I and II as of December 31, 2004, presented for comparative purposes, were audited by us, and our unqualified report thereon, dated March 3, 2005, contained the following: (a) a comment that our opinion as (i) to the amounts related to the indirect subsidiary Rio Grande Energia S.A., included in the consolidated financial statements, was based solely on the opinion of the other auditors, whose report thereon, dated February 25, 2005, contained a qualification as to the deferral of net exchange losses.

2005 Management Report

Management Report

Dear Shareholders,

In respect to the legal and statutory dispositions, the Management of CPFL Energia S.A. (CPFL Energia) would like to submit to your appreciation the Company’s Management Report and Financial Statements, with the opinion of the Independent Auditors and the Statutory Audit Committee, related to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. All comparisons carried out in this Report take into account consolidated data.

1. Letter from the Executive Officers

In 2005, CPFL Energia continued to achieve positive results from the business strategy it has developed since its incorporation. Based on clearly defined goals, CPFL Energia consolidated all four points of its strategic agenda: (i) Synergetic Growth, aimed at increasing its share in the Brazilian energy market through economies of scale and a synergetic participation in the segments of electric power generation, distribution and sales services; (ii) Operational Efficiency, aimed at maintaining the high levels of efficiency and quality achieved in the corporate and operational management; (iii) Financial Discipline, aimed at sustaining a strict financial discipline in the management of the group’s businesses; and (iv) Differentiated Corporate Governance, aimed at enhancing its practices, demonstrating its commitment to corporate responsibility and sustainability.

At year-end, these strategies, driven by the favorable economic environment, provided the best results the Company has ever achieved since its incorporation. Consolidated gross revenues increased 14% in comparison to the previous year, amounting to R$10,907 million. This result was primarily due to the 4.7% growth in electric power sales, the effects of the annual tariff adjustments, and the rise in revenues from the usage of the distribution system (TUSD). Thanks to the growth in revenues and the efficient management of costs and expenses, operating cash generation, as measured by EBITDA, increased 26% in relation to 2004, totaling R$2,120 million. As a result, the Company’s consolidated net income, which was also favored by the reduction in net financial expenses, increased 266%, amounting to R$1,021 million in the year, as compared to R$279 million in 2004.

20


The main factors contributing to these results were the remarkable performance in the three business segments in which the Company participates, in addition to the improvement of the group’s financial results. Sales of electric power to end users and other agents increased 4.7% —more than twice the 2.3% rise experienced by Brazil’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP)—amounting to 38,357 GWh.

In the distribution segment, Companhia Paulista de Força e Luz (CPFL Paulista), Companhia Piratininga de Força e Luz (CPFL Piratininga) and Rio Grande Energia (RGE), which operate in markets with growth rates exceeding the Brazilian average, served 5.6 million customers, recording total sales amounting to 31,019 GWh. The consumption of the residential, commercial and rural classes went up, reaching growth rates of 5.8%, 8% and 6.9%, respectively, while the migration of customers to the free energy market was offset by the increase in revenues from the usage of the distribution system (TUSD). The group’s distributors also maintained a leading position regarding the quality of their electric power provision and related customer services. Performance was considerably superior to the standard demanded by the Brazilian National Electric Power Agency (Aneel), in particular CPFL Paulista’s and CPFL Piratininga’s, which presented the best indices of electric power provision quality—as measured by the average duration and frequency of interruptions—among all Brazilian distributors.

In the sales services segment, thanks to an aggressive strategy of customer acquisition and loyalty promotion, CPFL Brasil, the group’s sales company, remained the market leader. At year-end 2005, it had 86 customers and experienced a 114% increase in sales to the free market, which amounted to 6,863 GWh. Total sales in the period rose 50% and the Company achieved a market share equivalent to 27% of all electric power sold by sales companies in Brazil. It also consolidated its position as an important provider of energy-related solutions and consulting services in energy management.

21


In the generation segment, CPFL Geração continued its installed capacity expansion program, with investments in the construction of new hydroelectric power plants (HPPs) and in the repowering of its small hydroelectric power plants (SHPPs). A highlight in 2005 was the conclusion and beginning of commercial operations, on November 1st, of Barra Grande HPP’s first generation unit. In 2005, we also concluded the construction of the Campos Novos HPP and began to fill its reservoir, a step that precedes its commercial operation, which is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2006. In addition, the repowering works of the Gavião Peixoto SHPP were initiated, and four new SHPPs were acquired and grouped in the recently-created CPFL Sul Centrais Elétricas, CPFL Geração’s newest subsidiary.

Thanks to that, the installed generation capacity, which was 854 MW at the end of 2004, totaled 915 MW in 2005, and it should amount to 1,501 MW within the first half of 2006, with the beginning of operations of three generation facilities at the Campos Novos HPP, of two additional generation units of the Barra Grande HPP, and the second generation facility of the Monte Claro HPP, resulting in a 76% growth in comparison to 2004.

With the conclusion of the remaining on-going generation projects, CPFL Geração will have an installed power capacity of 1,993 MW in 2010. This should be achieved as from the beginning of commercial operations of the Castro Alves, 14 de Julho and Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric power plants, in 2007, 2008 and 2010, respectively. The works of the Foz do Chapecó HPP will be initiated in 2006.

In the financial management area, CPFL Energia maintained the improving trends shown in the previous years. Among other indicators, it is important to highlight the reduction in the nominal cost of its debt, which decreased from 17.7% per annum in 2004 to 13.4% per annum in 2005, in addition to the increase in the average amortization term, which rose from 5.1 to 6.1 years. Within the group, debt is monitored through financial indicators that must be observed prior to taking out new loans. The Company’s cash management generated higher yields than the CDI, based on financial investments that follow a policy limiting credit risks, and the prepayment of suppliers through discounts. The strong financial indicators and, in particular, the measures taken to protect the cash flow, were highlighted in a report by Standard & Poors that raised the Company’s rating to BrA+.

22


In 2005, we also concluded the implementation of the Shareholder Value Creation (SVC). This advanced management system directs the Company’s value creation initiatives. The main external measurement tool of the SVC is the Total Shareholder Return (TSR), in addition to the following internal tools: the Total Business Return (TBR), the Cash Return on Gross Investment (CFROGI), and the Cash Value Added (CVA).

In the regulatory field, a major highlight was the completion of a cycle marked by decisions, such as the conclusion of the tariff revision of the distributors Companhia Paulista de Força e Luz and Companhia Piratininga de Força e Luz. This initial period tested some tools developed based on the New Regulatory Framework, which were aimed at ensuring the market is supplied through the allocation of the existing energy, and at encouraging further investments in the Brazilian energy industry. These initiatives, which include holding auctions for existing energy and conducting adjustment auctions, were crowned at the end of 2005, with the first new energy auction, which, even though within the government’s expectations, had a reduced participation of private investors in new hydroelectric developments. A more profound evaluation of the results achieved in these first events will lead to the improvement of the model, in order to foster additional private investments in the industry.

The capital markets also recognized the efforts made—and the results achieved—by the Company. Our free float went up to 17.75% in December 2005 from 13.64% at the Initial Public Offering in September 2004. CPFL Energia’s shares have shown increasing sales volumes and are already part of some of the main market indices, such as the IbrX-100 (the 100 most traded shares in Brazil) and the IEE (an index consisting of the leading energy companies listed at the Bovespa). CPFL Energia was included in the DJBr20 ADR, the Dow Jones index of the 20 most traded Brazilian ADRs at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

The differentiated positioning regarding Corporate Governance resulted in the inclusion of its shares into indices reflecting advanced responsibility and sustainability practices. These are: the Differentiated Corporate Governance Stock Index (IGC); the Differentiated Tag Along Stock Index (ITAG); and the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE).

23


The return to CPFL Energia’s shareholders, as measured from the appreciation of the Company’s shares, was above the average return of investments made in the stock exchange. In Brazil, CPFL’s shares appreciated 65%, in comparison to the 28% rise of the Ibovespa index. In the USA, the price of the ADRs increased 86%, in comparison to the 0.6% depreciation of the Dow Jones. In addition, CPFL Energia has adopted differentiated remuneration practices for the capital invested by the shareholders, distributing the Company’s entire income, after the legal reserves, in the form of dividends.

In 2005, the Company’s main achievement was the recognition Companhia Paulista de Força e Luz received from the Brazilian National Quality Foundation through its National Quality Award (PNQ), which is granted to companies with excellent corporate management practices. Since its creation 13 years ago, only 17 large-sized Brazilian private companies have received the PNQ, one of the world’s leading awards in this area. CPFL Paulista is the only company in the Brazilian energy industry ever awarded with it.

It is important to highlight the effort of our companies to minimize the social and environmental impact arising from their operations. Since 2001, the group has invested R$297 million in these programs, R$76 million of which in 2005.

CPFL Energia relies on the trust of its shareholders, investors, suppliers and customers, and, especially, in the commitment of its managers and employees to face the great challenges of the years to come. We are ready to expand our market share in the Brazilian energy industry in an orderly and competitive way and, as a result, to contribute decisively to Brazil's sustainable growth.

3. Recent Developments

ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

In 2005, the Brazilian economy felt a positive impact from an expanding economic environment and controlled inflation rates in the world’s primary financial centers. As a result, international interest rates decreased, leading investors to direct their funds to emerging markets—such as Brazil—whose economies display consistent economic fundamentals and which may maximize returns. In 2005, the huge capital inflow, coupled with the record-breaking US$44.8 billion trade balance surplus, resulted in an 11.8% appreciation of the Real against the US Dollar. At year-end the exchange rate was US$1.00/R$ 2.34.

 

26


Internally, the inflation target control policy—through adjustments in the basic interest rate—was maintained. At the beginning of the year, the basic interest rate was 18.25% . In May, it peaked at 19.75% . Then, it was gradually reduced to 18% at year-end. These developments allowed Brazil to keep inflation under control—according to the IGP-M, at year-end it totaled 1.21%, the lowest rate since this index was created. The 2.3% expansion of the GDP was lower than expected. The energy industry, specially in the residential and commercial segments, experienced a rise in the demand due to the following reasons: (i) a 2% increase in income levels, as measured between 2004 and 2005 in the six major metropolitan regions monitored by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE); (ii) the reduction in unemployment rates, which reached 8.3% in 2005, the lowest level since March 2002; and (iii) increased access to credit by the population, as a result of the 83% rise in the credit offer over the period.

27


REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

The year 2005 was marked by the effective application and the first tests of the set of norms called New Regulatory Framework for the Energy Sector (Novo Modelo do Setor). Highlights of the period were the structuring and implementation of the entities, such as the Energy Research Company (EPE), the Energy Industry Monitoring Committee (CMSE), and the consolidation of the activities of the Electric Power Trade Board (CCEE), in charge of holding auctions for existing energy, in addition to adjustment and new energy auctions.
The first tests carried out indicate the need of fine-tuning the system to make investments in new plants more appealing to the private capital, thus relieving the public sector from making these investments. However, they also showed the trend towards consolidation in the industry model and indicate a period of more stability of the rules, therefore promoting a more adequate environment for the development of businesses in the industry.

Unwinding of Cross-holdings

ANEEL Resolution 305, of September 5, 2005, approved the extension of the term for implementing the unwinding of cross-holdings of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista, with the transfer of its equity interest in CPFL Piratininga (up to April 2006) and in RGE (up to March 2007) to the holding company CPFL Energia.

Amendment to the Concession Agreement

In 2005, the distributors CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and RGE signed an amendment to their Concession Agreements. Such amendments include a calculation method that ensures a balance in the transfers of costs related to the acquisition of electric power to serve their consumers, since they take into account electric power acquisition costs in the Variation Costs of Portion “A” Items Compensation Account (CVA), according to Decree 5163/2004.

28


ELECTRIC POWER TARIFFS

Distribution Segment

In 2005, we concluded the Tariff Revision process of the distributors CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga. RGE’s Tariff Revision process had already been concluded in 2004. As a result, the group’s three distributors’ tariffs were fixed in a definitive way.

Due to a decision made by ANEEL, PIS/COFINS charges were withdrawn from the calculation of electric power tariffs of CPFL Paulista and RGE (05/01/2005), and CPFL Piratininga (10/23/2005). As a result, the costs incurred collecting the PIS/COFINS were fully transferred to consumers, based on a treatment similar to the one granted to the ICMS, thus avoiding losses for the Distributors.

- CPFL Paulista - In April 2005, the 2003 Periodic Tariff Review was concluded, which increased tariffs by 20.29% —while the Annual Tariff Adjustment (IRT) adjusted electric power supply tariffs by 17.74% —and, afterwards, recognized Additional Regulatory Assets of 1.01% .

- CPFL Piratininga - In October 2005, the 2003 Periodic Tariff Review was concluded and resulted in a 9.67% tariff growth. As for the Annual Tariff Adjustment (IRT), it increased electric power supply tariffs by 1.54% on average.

- RGE - In April 2005, electric power supply tariffs rose by 21.93%, on average, based on the Annual Tariff Adjustment (IRT).

Electric Power Generation Segment

Electric power sales agreements, related to the generators, include specific adjustment clauses, which adopt the IGP-M as their main annual adjustment index.

- Semesa S.A. – In January 2005, its electric power supply tariff was increased by 12.42% .

29


- CPFL Centrais Elétricas S.A. - The tariffs related to the agreements entered into with CPFL Paulista were rose by 4.32% for the Initial Agreements and by 11.12% for the Bilateral Agreements. The Initial Agreements represent the last 25% deregulation installment.

- Ceran and Baesa – The Electric Power Purchase and Sale Agreements corresponding to the electric power portions held by CPFL Geração in the Monte Claro and Barra Grande hydroelectric power plants, were entered into with CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and CPFL Brasil. These agreements provide for annual adjustments tied to the variation of the IGP-M.

4. Business Performance

ELECTRIC POWER TRADED
CPFL Energia supplies electric power to end users via CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and RGE, and to free consumers and other agents through CPFL Brasil.
In 2005, the sales of electric power increased 4.7% in relation to the previous year, amounting to 38,357 GWh.

Performance Analysis per Class

Residential Class
Representing 22.9% of the entire electric power sold by the group, it experienced a 5.8% growth when compared to 2004. This increase was primarily due to the country’s economic recovery, thanks to the improvement in salaries and expansion in the credit offer, which encouraged the acquisition of domestic electrical appliances by the population.

Commercial Class
Representing 13.9% of the entire electric power sold by the group, it had a 8% rise when compared to 2004. This increase was due to the country’s economic recovery, thanks to the improvement in salaries and expansion in the credit offer, which resulted in a 4.8% growth in retail sales in 2005, in relation to the previous year, according to the IBGE’s Monthly Retail Survey.

Industrial Class and Bilateral Agreements
The Industrial Class and the Bilateral Agreements presented, together, a 3.2% growth, going from 18,590 GWh to 19,192 GWh in the period. This trend was due to two reasons: - In the distribution segment, the consumption of the industrial class presented a 20.7% reduction, declining from 15,082 GWh to 11,956 GWh in the period, primarily due to the migration of customers to the free market.

- The sales of electric power to free customers and bilateral agreements presented a 106% increase, rising from 3,509 GWh to 7,236 GWh.

Other Classes
Representing 13.3% of the electric power sold, they presented a 4.8% growth in comparison to the previous year.

ELECTRIC POWER DISTRIBUTION

The distributors CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and RGE operate in more developed areas in the interior of the states of São Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul, and their historical growth rates exceed the national average. As an example, the electric power consumption in the concession areas of CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga increased by 5.0% between 2004 and 2005. This growth rate exceeds the increase in the state of São Paulo and in Brasil, which rose by 3.8% and 4.6%, respectively.

Customers
In 2005, CPFL Energia had impressive 5.608 million customers, a 2.6% growth in relation to the previous year. The residential class, which represents 85.7% of the total number of customers, increased 2.8% in the period.

Billed Power
The electric power billed by distributors totaled 31,019 GWh, a 6.2% drop in comparison to 2004. This reduction was primarily due to the migration of 46 customers from the distributors to the free market.

32


Electric Power Transmission

Customers who migrate to the free market pay distributors a tariff for using the distribution system (TUSD). In 2005, the transmission of electric power to serve the free consumers in the concession areas of our distributors rose 113%, surging from 3,288 GWh to 7,013 GWh in the period.


Commercial Losses
The distributors CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga maintain permanent initiatives aimed at reducing commercial losses, whether they originate from technical issues (meter maintenance and replacement, for instance) or prevention of clandestine connections. In 2005, 420,000 consumer units were inspected, an 11.4% increase in comparison to the 377,000 units inspected in 2004. In addition, 92.8 thousand obsolete or damaged meters were replaced in the period.

As a result, CPFL Paulista’s commercial losses rate fell to 2.61% between 2004 and 2005. At CPFL Piratininga the reduction was even more accentuated, reaching 1.80% in the period. This represented a revenue recovery amounting to R$122.3 million.


33


RGE’s commercial losses recovery program carried out 68,700 inspections against fraud cases in 2005, 62% more than the inspections carried out in 2004. As a result, commercial losses in 2005 amounted to 2.75%, resulting in a recovery totaling R$8.9 million in revenues.

Default
As a result of negotiation efforts and debt collection, in addition to the increase in, and efficiency of, electric power cuts, the default rate, calculated based on accounts overdue for more than 30 days, experienced the expressive reduction of 24% at CPFL Paulista, 26% at CPFL Piratininga, and 5% at RGE.

One of the goals of CPFL Energia’s distributors is to facilitate and improve customer service quality. In order to do so, it has exclusive Call Centers, working 24/7, with state-of-the-art technology and highly-qualified professionals prepared to offer the best solutions for the customers’ needs. In 2005, 14 million queries were addressed.

In 2005, the personalized Customer Service Agencies carried out 1.23 million assistances, but the major highlights of the year were the electronic service channels. Through the Internet sites (www.cpfl.com.br and www.rge.com.br), 2.98 million assistances were carried out, representing 16.4% of the grand total. These channels have shown constant growth over the last few years, offering the best possible accessibility and comfort conditions for the customers and, for CPFL, the ability of providing fast and reliable services with considerable cost reductions.

Electric Power Provision
The distributors of CPFL Energia are constantly investing in the quality of the electric power provision services. They develop initiatives aimed at enhancing operational management, emergency services logistics organization, in addition to the constant preventive maintenance and inspection of their substations, networks and distribution lines. It also invests in training its professionals in state-of-the-art technology, in standardizing work processes, and in sharing the best operational management practices among the group’s distributors.

The results of these initiatives may be substantiated by the evolution of the electric power provision quality indicators, as well as by its comparison with the Duration-Equivalent of Interruption per Consumer (DEC) and the Frequency-Equivalent of Interruptions per Customer (FEC) indicators, which are published by the Brazilian National Electric Power Agency (Aneel). In 2005, the Brazilian distributors recorded an average 16.33 hours for the DEC and 13.10 times for FEC. In 2005, CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and RGE had DECs amounting to 6.21, 7.99 and 26.08 hours, respectively. The FEC was 5.41 times at CPFL Paulista, 5.94 at CPFL Piratininga and 16.47 at RGE.

Two of the three distributors of the group, CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga occupy the first and second positions in the Brazilian ranking for these indicators.

Customer Satisfaction
The distributors of CPFL Energia’s group are constantly monitoring customer satisfaction regarding the quality of the services they render. To do that, they use the results from studies prepared by Aneel, such as Aneel’s Consumer Satisfaction Index (IASC), and by Abradee, such as the Perceived Quality Satisfaction Index (ISQP). Aneel cancelled the 2004 IASC survey. According to the 2005 ISQP survey, CPFL Paulista achieved a customer satisfaction rate of 79.9%, CPFL Piratininga totaled 75.4%, and RGE, the best placed overall, reached a customer satisfaction rate of 88.9% .

35


Universalization of Services
In 2005, CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga were the first distributors to have covered 100% of their concession areas in the country.

The companies made the connections with their own funds until June 2004, when they entered into an agreement with Eletrobrás to carry out the Light for All Program, created by the federal government to carry out the connection works for rural customers, with financing to be arranged through funding from this program. Agreed goals were fulfilled: 4,167 rural customers of CPFL Paulista and 1,530 customers of CPFL Piratininga were connected to the grid. Total investments amounted to R$13.04 million and R$3.24 million, respectively.

At RGE, that goal corresponds to the connection of approximately 17,000 customers. In 2005, also via the Light for All Program, 4,767 rural customers were connected to the grid, with investments of R$20.7 million. Up to 2006, 4,994 additional customers are expected to be connected.

The remaining 7,300 urban customers are being connected using RGE’s own funds. Completion is expected for 2008.

Achievements
A highlight among the distributors of the CPFL Energia Group was the National Quality Award (PNQ)—granted by the Brazilian National Quality Foundation—received by CPFL Paulista in 2005. CPFL Paulista also received the Quality of Management and Operational Management Awards, granted by the Brazilian Electric Power Distributors Association (Abradee). In addition, for the fourth year in a row, it received the award Best Distribution Company in the Country, granted by the magazine Eletricidade Moderna.

ELECTRIC POWER SALES

In 2005, CPFL Brasil, the electric power sales company of the CPFL Energia group, recorded a 50% increase in its total sales, which went up from 11,110 GWh to 16,657 GWh.


CPFL Brasil’s competitiveness was proved with the expressive surge in the sales to free customers and bilateral agreements, which totaled 6,863 GWh in 2005, a substantial 114% growth when compared to the sales of 2004.

In addition, the free consumer portfolio totaled 86 customers at the end of 2005, a 72% increase when compared to its 50 customers in the previous year.


37


In addition to the sale of electric power, CPFL Brasil offers other value-added services. They include the construction of substations and transmission lines, preventive and corrective maintenance of substations and industrial electric power facilities, electric power efficiency, public lighting, distribution systems for condominiums, and energy management consulting services.

In 2005, sales revenues with these services amounted to R$17.4 million. At year-end, the Company’s ongoing works included the construction of twelve 138 kV substations, totaling 176.5 MVA of installed capacity. In addition to add value directly, this strategy of providing services for customers strengthens the relationship with them and leverages electric power sales opportunities.

ELECTRIC POWER GENERATION

Since its incorporation in September 2000, CPFL Geração has established a business strategy that consists of the expansion of its generation capacity through the acquisition of operational power plants, the construction of new plants—resulting from hydroelectric developments bid by the Brazilian National Electric Power Agency (Aneel)—and via the repowering and upgrading of its SHPPs.

On November 1st, 2005, the first generation unit of the Barra Grande HPP began its commercial operations. CPFL Geração holds a 25% stake in it. The installed power capacity of this unit—of a total of three plants of same size—amounts to 230 MW, and its guaranteed energy totals an average 207 MW, corresponding to 54% of the plant’s total guaranteed energy, which amounts to 380.6 MW on average.

At the end of 2005, the reservoir of the Campos Novos HPP (880 MW) began to be filled. CPFL Geração holds a 48.7% interest in this facility. The Campos Novos HPP’s operations are expected to begin in the first quarter of 2006. Its first generation unit has an average of 342 MW of guaranteed energy, corresponding to 91% of the plant’s total guaranteed energy, which amounts to 377.9 MW on average.

38


Still in 2005, the works of the 14 de Julho (100 MW) and Castro Alves (130 MW) hydroelectric power plants continued. Both plants belong to the Ceran Complex—in which CPFL Geração holds a 65% stake—and are expected to begin commercial operations in 2007 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the repowering works of the Gavião Peixoto HPP (4.8 MW) were started, and RGE’s four new SHPPs—with a total power output of 2.7 MW—were grouped in the recently-created CPFL Sul Centrais Elétricas, one of CPFL Geração’s wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The installed generation capacity, which was 854 MW at the end of 2004, totaled 915 MW at year-end 2005, and it should amount to 1,501 MW within the first half of 2006, with the beginning of operations of three generation facilities at the Campos Novos HPP, of two additional generation units of the Barra Grande HPP, and the second generation facility of the Monte Claro HPP, representing a 76% rise in comparison to 2004.

The following chart presents the evolution of the installed capacity and guaranteed energy of CPFL Geração from the year 2000, when it had 143 MW of installed capacity, up to 2010, when it should reach a total power output of 1,993 MW.

5. Financial Performance

Management comments on the financial performance and operating income should be read together with the Audited Financial Statements and the Notes to the Statements.

Operating Revenues
In 2005, CPFL Energia’s gross revenues amounted to R$10,907 million, representing a 14.2% increase in comparison to 2004. This result was primarily due to:


- the 4.7% rise in electric power sales, together with the effects of the annual adjustments (IRTs) of 17.74%, 21.93% and 1.54% of the distributors CPFL Paulista, RGE and CPFL Piratininga, and the effects of the 12.42% adjustment to the Semesa agreement (R$1,140 million);

- the 118% growth in revenues for using the distribution system (TUSD), which amounted to R$256 million;

Operating Cash Generation (EBITDA)
In 2005, the Company's operating income, as measured by EBITDA, went up to R$2,120 million, representing a 26.1% increase in comparison to 2004.


This result was primarily due to the 14.9% growth in net revenues (R$1,003 million), which was partially offset by the 3.4% rise in costs with energy (R$128 million) and the 34.8% increase in operating expenses (R$436 million).

40


EBITDA is arrived at by adding profit, taxes, financial result, depreciation/amortization and private pension scheme, in addition to the adjustments related to the extraordinary item.

Net Income

CPFL Energia’s consolidated net income went up sharply to R$1,021 million, with an impressive rise of 266% in comparison to the R$279 million obtained in 2004. This outstanding result was primarily due to the following factors:

- a 26.1% (or R$439 million) growth in EBITDA;
- a 51.4% (or R$348 million) decrease in net financial expenses; and
- a 40.5% (or R$133 million) fall in the expenses with the private pension scheme and with the recognition of fiscal credits in the holding company.

Net earnings per share in the period soared from R$0.62 to R$1.97.


Dividends
For 2005, the Management proposed the distribution of R$899 million in dividends, which corresponds to 95% of the net income for the year and R$1.92 per share.

This dividend represents a dramatic 215% growth when compared to the R$0.61 per share value recorded in 2004.


41


Debt
The Company’s debt at the end of 2005 decreased by 1.3% in comparison to the same period in the previous year, amounting to R$4.9 billion.


Adjusted net debt, as calculated based on the total debt (loans and financings plus the debt with a private entity), excluding the statutory assets/CVA and available cash, fell 0.6% in 2005, amounting to R$3,705 million. Net debt/EBITDA ratio had a positive result, dropping to 1.7 at year-end 2005, as compared to 2.3 in the previous year.

The improvement of the debt profile deserves to be highlighted. The actions initiated in 2004 enabled us to improve the Company’s main indicators, including cost reduction and the expansion of the average amortization term.

42



Such improvement is also a result of the composition of the indices, with a special highlight for the expansion of the portion of the debt tied to the TJLP, arising from the liberation of FINEM funds and from the loans for the construction of the generation plants, in addition to the reduction of the exposition to the CDI, due to relevant amortizations in the distributors, which amounted to R$354 million, related to: (i) the BNDES loan and referring to the RTE/CVA; (ii) the R$151 million amortizations in CPFL Paulista related to the debentures; and (iii) the R$152 million amortizations related to the Floating Rate Notes.


This positive evolution contributed to the improvement of our companies’ ratings to BrA+, as published by Standard & Poors in January 2006.

In December 2004, the BNDES approved the inclusion of CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga in the Expansion and Upgrading of the Electric Power System Program (FINEM), corresponding to loans of R$241 million and R$89 million, respectively, both tied to the TJLP and with a six year term. In 2005, three tranches, totaling R$139 million, were transferred to CPFL Paulista. CPFL Piratininga received four tranches, amounting to R$66 million.

43


In April 2005, Enercan, of which CPFL Geração holds a 48.72% stake, received the approval for a loan amounting to US$75 million, raised with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), to be used in the financing of the Campos Novos HPP. Of the amount borrowed two tranches were released, totaling US$60 million.

In December 2005, CPFL Piratininga raised R$300 million in short-term funds tied to the CDI. This loan was settled in February 2006, with part of the proceeds from the issuance of R$400 million in subordinated debentures, with a five-year maturity. The remuneration of this issuance is at 104 % of the CDI and should be amortized in two installments, the first one on January 1, 2010 and the second one on January 1, 2011.

At year-end 2005, RGE had a total financial debt amounting to R$633 million, virtually stable when compared to its consolidated balance in 2004. Of the R$284 million in new loans released in 2005, a highlight was the issuance of debentures amounting R$230 million, which allowed it to extend its debt profile. This issuance was carried out in two series, one amounting to R$204 million, tied to the CDI and with maturity in April 2009, and the other totaling R$26 million, tied to the IGP-M and with maturity in April 2011.

6. Investments

In 2005, CPFL Energia invested R$626.5 million, through its subsidiaries, in the electric power distribution, generation and sales segments.

The investment in the generation segment was primarily used in on-going undertakings—Ceran Complex, Barra Grande HPP, Campos Novos HPP (R$244 million)—and in other investments (R$11 million), which included the acquisition of four SHPPs in Rio Grande do Sul and the repowering of the Gavião Peixoto HPP.

44


In the distribution segment, investments of R$202 million were primarily used in the expansion of the electric power system to meet the growth of the consumer market, which increased by 141,000 new customers in 2005. In addition, R$166 million were invested in the maintenance and improvement of the electric power system, in operational infrastructure, operational support systems, and in the research and development program. The main developments in the period were the conclusion of the implementation of the Integrated Distribution System Management Project (GIS-D)—to provide support to distribution activity processes—and the restructuring and upgrading of CPFL Piratininga’s customer support channels.

Segment    Investment (R$ million)
 
Distribution    368.0 
 
Generation    254.9 
 
Trading    3.5 
 
Total    626.5 
 

7. Corporate Governance

Since its incorporation, CPFL Energia has established the adoption of differentiated Corporate Governance Practices, based on the principles of transparency, equity, accountability and corporate responsibility, as a permanent guideline for its activities and as a key part of its corporate strategy. The main goals of this initiative are to provide the Company with sustainable growth and to ensure the establishment of relations of trust with its shareholders, investors and other stakeholders. According to such guideline, CPFL Energia’s differentials include the following practices:

- shares listed in the New Market of the Bovespa and Level III ADSs at the New York Stock Exchange.
- 100% of Tag Along.
- 100% of Common Shares: based on the “one share-one vote” principle.
- Board of Directors Advisory Committees.
- The Articles of Incorporation of the subsidiaries are in line with CPFL Energia’s Articles of Incorporation.
- Commitment to increase the free float to 25% by 2007.
- Financial Statements in compliance with the US GAAP and Brazil GAAP standards.
- Self-evaluation of the Board of Directors and the Statutory Audit Committee.
- Annual Report published pursuant to the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative – GRI.

45


In addition, CPFL Energia constantly develops initiatives aimed at improving its internal controls. In 2005, it created a Disclosure Committee and implemented processes to check and document 113 procedures to ensure the full compliance of certification-related requirements pursuant to sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

The Board of Directors approved the creation of the Corporate Governance Committee, responsible for analyzing changes to the Articles of Incorporation and other documents related to the Company’s management bodies. It was also decided that the Audit Committee was responsible for overseeing and evaluating the work of the Company’s Independent Auditors. Such duties allow CPFL Energia’s Statutory Audit Committee (Conselho Fiscal) to act as the Audit Committee (Comitê de Auditoria) in issues related to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as provided for in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result, the Audit Committee has changed its name to Evaluation Committee on Internal Procedures and Controls (Comitê de Avaliação de Processos e Controles Internos), and is now responsible for coordinating the internal audit team.

Still in 2005, the implementation of the Ethical Conduct Channel was concluded. This proactive and preventive initiative is aimed at avoiding practices that may jeopardize the accuracy in the treatment of the Company’s accounting and internal audit issues.

The evolution achieved by CPFL Energia in its Corporate Governance practices was recognized by the market and, as a result, its shares were included—in their first year of sales —in important differentiated indices of the Bovespa, such as the Differentiated Corporate Governance Stock Index (IGC), the Differentiated Tag Along Stock Index (ITAG) and the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE).

46


CPFL Energia was also acknowledged by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) as one of the companies with the best Corporate Governance practices in Latin America. And this was achieved through the inclusion of CPFL Energia in the OECD’s report “Case Studies of Good Corporate Governance,” which highlighted only eight Latin American companies, six of which from Brazil.

47


8. Capital Markets

Performance of the Shares
CPFL Energia has common shares (ON) traded in the New Market of the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa) and American Depositary Shares listed in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Each ADS represents three (3) common shares.

In 2005, the performance of CPFL Energia shares (CPFE3 and CPL) surpassed the main indices of the capital markets. At Bovespa, the shares appreciated 64.8% against 42.9% of the IEE and 27.7% of the Ibovespa. At NYSE, the ADSs went up 85.5% against a 47.5% growth of the Dow Jones Brazil Titans 20 ADR and a 0.6% decrease of the Dow Jones Index.


48


CPFL shares also had a superior performance in comparison to other important indices.


After going public in September 2004, CPFL was included in some of the main indices of local and international markets. At Bovespa, CPFL Energia shares are included in the following indices: IbrX -100, the Energy Industry Index (IEE), the Differentiated Corporate Governance Stock Index (IGC), the Differentiated Tag Along Stock Index (ITAG), and, since December 2005, the Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE). At the NYSE, the Company’s shares are part of the Dow Jones Brazil Titans 20 ADR Index.

Investor Relations
In 2005, CPFL Energia continued to expand its shareholder and investor relations and communications channels. The main initiatives developed in the period were: (i) the CPFL Day, at the New York Stock Exchange, which gathered investors, market analysts, and members of the international financial community; (ii) the organization of an event to celebrate the First Anniversary of the IPO at the Bovespa and the presentation of related results; and (iii) the implementation of a strategy to approach individual investors, which included initiatives such as the participation in the Expomoney SP, a trade show opened to individual investors.

49


In addition to these initiatives, the Company carried out other events with investors and analysts, resulting in 261 individual meetings, including:

The expansion of analyst relations and communications channels resulted in the increase in the number of institutions following the Company regularly and making estimates of its results. At the end of 2005, fourteen institutions were following the Company as compared to five at the end of 2004.

The Investor Relations website was expanded with the inclusion of new informational areas. This initiative was complemented with seven issues of the newsletter “Investidor CPFL,” a bimonthly publication produced in Portuguese and English.

Due to all these initiatives, CPFL Energia received important market awards:

2005 ABAMEC Quality Award
 
2005 APIMEC SP - Best Presentation
 
2005 Institutional Investor Magazine
 
  1st place in “Corporate Governance” – Latin America Electric Utilities

9. Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability

The initiatives, programs and attitudes related to Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability are one of the pillars of CPFL Energia’s Strategic Agenda, and form the basis for the sustainable growth of the Company’s businesses.

The Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Program has initiatives arising from basic premises aimed at contributing effectively to the social, cultural and economic development of the communities in its concession areas, and to the preservation of the environment.

The initiative guidelines of the Program permeate all of the Company’s activities and are practiced in the following areas:

1. in transparency and business ethics
2. in the initiatives carried out in neighboring communities
3. in the environments where CPFL has a leading role and considerable social influence
4. in the business chain
5. in the management of process and service quality
6. in the management of Human Resources
7. in the management of environmental impacts

Transparency and Ethics
In 2005, the Annual Report was published, for the third year in a row, pursuant to the guidelines of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), and the Revision of the Corporate Conduct and Ethics Code was concluded in line with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The new version of the Ethics Code will be implemented in the first half of 2006.

 

51


Communities: Knowledge Availability
The project “New Identities – Going Through Changes: Knowledge, Wisdom and Happiness” is aimed at sharing knowledge from the most diverse areas and at providing the means for people to understand the challenges of the 21st century. It was carried out from March to December 2005, in the Espaço Cultural CPFL, in Campinas, in the state of São Paulo, and its lectures with experts and scholars were opened to the general public. Approximately 75,000 people participated. Since its inception, the Espaço Cultural has involved more than 160,000 people in its activities, which are also broadcast throughout the country.

The relationship with the communities also includes programs dealing with health, art and educational issues. One of its foremost initiatives is the Program to Revitalize Philanthropic and Charity Hospitals (Hospitais Filantrópicos and Santas Casas de Misericórdia), which includes the training on the best managerial practices to be adopted by hospitals in the concession areas of CPFL Energia and its subsidiaries.
In the educational area, the programs “CPFL in the Schools” and the “Learning Project” are carried out aimed at promoting the responsible consumption of electric power and fostering the professional development of young adults from low-income families.

Business Chain
Since 2002, CPFL Energia has promoted the dissemination among its suppliers of corporate social responsibility concepts, with a view to encourage the formation of the Value Network, a group to study the issue.

Leadership and Social Influence
CPFL Energia leads and takes part in corporate and NGO initiatives promoting sustainable development. Since 2003, it is a member of the Global Compact and it has been a member of the Brazilian Committee of that initiative since 2004. The Global Compact was created by the UN to gain the commitment of corporations to 10 principles related to human, labor, and environmental rights, and the fight against corruption. Because it is committed to these principles, CPFL Energia supports the dissemination of The United Nations Millennium Development Goals, set forth by the UN in 2004 through the creation of the Permanent Regional Forum for the Promotion of Citizenship and Solidarity, which currently includes 40 companies from the Metropolitan Region of Campinas (SP).

52


Service Quality and Process Management
Thanks to its Integrated Management System, the group's work procedures are certified by the main international norms: ISO 9001:00 (quality management); ISO 14000:04 (environmental management); OHSAS 18001:99 (occupational safety and health); and SA 8000:01 (social responsibility).

Management of Human Resources
In 2005, CPFL Energia maintained its investments in professional training and development programs for its employees through technical courses, seminars, workshops and specialization activities, which resulted in an average of 126 hours of training per worker, involving classroom and Intranet initiatives.

In 2005, CPFL Energia organized the II CPFL Seminar on Evolution, with the purpose of promoting the exchange of information and technical experience among professionals working in its group of companies. The initiative provided opportunities for electricians, technicians and engineers to share knowledge and evaluate innovative proposals that might be adopted by, and disseminated through, the companies of the group.

- CPFL’s Diversity Program: Set up to expand the inclusion of afro-descendents, women and disabled people among the Company’s personnel. Certain specific goals were established to be achieved in the period of 2005 to 2009 in order to make the Company’s workforce more representative of the population in its concession areas.
In 2005, the Company hired 50 disabled people, pursuant to the CPFL Opportunities Program, which provides for eight hours of daily activities, four of which for secondary educational purposes—in partnership with the State University of Campinas (Unicamp)—and four hours dedicated to professional training at the Company.

53


- Turnover: In 2005, turnover level was 6.75%, keeping the balance between the retention and renovation of our workforce. At year-end, the Company’s personnel totaled 5,838 employees, in comparison to 5,580 in 2004. The Company’s staff has the following profile:
- average time in the Company is 12.1 years.
- average age is 38 years.

As a result of the personnel valorization and development policies adopted by the group, employees placed CPFL Energia, for the fourth year in a row, among the Best Companies to Work for in Brazil, in a survey prepared by the magazines Exame and Você S.A., according to the criteria defined by the Great Place to Work®Institute.

Environmental impact management
CPFL Energia is permanently involved with the management of the environmental impact arising from its activities and projects in order to ensure the inclusion—in its planning and management procedures—of all preventive and corrective measures required for complying with the legislation and regulatory instruments in force.

The Environmental Management System—through which CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and CPFL Centrais Elétricas were certified according to the ISO 14001 Norm—enables the Company’s activities to be monitored.

The companies from the CPFL Energia group have also developed environmental programs in the concession areas of their distributors and in the areas surrounding their hydroelectric power plants, to ensure that businesses are carried out respecting the environment and adding value to the communities located in their concession areas.

Here are some of the most important initiatives in that field:

- Urban Tree Planting Program: Distribution of seedlings of native species from each region, that are adapted to grow near electric power distribution grids. In 2005, 123,000 seedlings were distributed to 100 municipalities.

54


- Urban Tree Planting Guide: Guidance and support for Municipal Governments in urban planning and tree planting processes.
- Program for the Restoration of Species in Rivers and Reservoirs: 390,000 fry are released annually in the rivers of the state of São Paulo.
- Reforestation Program: In 2005, 110,000 seedlings were introduced in the areas surrounding the reservoirs of the small hydroelectric power plants and in the areas covered by the distribution grids and lines.
- Nature School-Ship Project: Support to the project dedicated to disseminate environmental education to teachers, students and the community in the neighborhood of the Americana SHPP’s reservoir.

Projects Developed in Generation Undertakings in Construction
The new undertakings in construction have specific managers to handle environmental issues. For that reason, CPFL Geração developed a shared management of Basic Environmental Projects specific for each undertaking, aimed at ensuring that its policy and its environmental commitments are taken into account in its initiatives.
Decisions are made by Environmental Committees, which consists of representatives from each partner organization and the Environmental Manager of each facility. In order to do that, the implementation of environmental programs and the interrelation with governmental bodies are fundamental for the environmental licensing process and for future electric power generation. An example of this procedure is the issuing of the Barra Grande HPP’s Operating License by Ibama, the Brazilian Environmental Agency, which, in addition to the punctuality in carrying out the environmental programs by Baesa, involved an arrangement among the Company, the Federal Government and the Public Attorney’s Office (Ministério Público), ensuring the generation of electric power and the preservation of the environment.

Here are some of the initiatives carried out:

- Barra Grande HPP: with investments totaling R$165.0 million up to December 2005, of which R$43 million alone in 2005, the Rural Population Resettlement Program continued to be carried out. It is expected that 430 families will be resettled through it: (i) 194 families will be relocated to collective rural resettlements, with basic infrastructure containing houses with attached sheds, farming lots, community centers, and even schools built in the resettlement area. Of this total, 86 families are already resettled. (ii) 230 families are receiving letters of credit and purchasing their own plots of land; and (iii) 6 families are installed in resettlements in the remaining areas. It also includes the following: (i) 127 families identified as small farmers or as non-owners, whose activities were related to land use, receive institutional support; (ii) the protection of the biodiversity, with programs to recover and preserve the native fauna and flora, including several endangered species; (iii) the creation of a seedling nursery to foster the diversity of the flora, with a production of 680,000 seedlings, which were used in reforestation projects developed around the reservoir or donated to third parties to recover other areas.

55


- Campos Novos HPP: with investments totaling R$98.0 million up to December 2005, of which R$24 million alone in 2005, the Rural Population Resettlement Program continued to be carried out. It is expected that 297 families will be transferred through it: (i) 31 families were installed in collective rural resettlements, with an infrastructure similar to the one of Barra Grande, and all these families are already occupying their plots of land; (ii) 49 families were installed in small collective rural resettlements, and they are already occupying their plots of land; (iii) 170 families are receiving their letters of credit and purchasing their property; and (iv) 47 families were installed in resettlements in the remaining areas. In addition, it also includes the following: (i) development of the Rural Development Fund (FDR), through the transfer of funds to SEBRAE-SC, with a view to add value to small properties, which will assist over 300 families in the region; (ii) implementation of a Conservation Unit with 1,068 ha, with acquisition of the area, its transfer to the environmental body and preparation of a Stewardship Plan; (iii) recovery of the Permanent Preservation Area (APP) neighboring the reservoir, equivalent to 1,832 ha, with the planting of 206,000 seedlings of native species, among which are two endangered species—the Brazilian pine and the xaxim (a type of giant fern)—cultivated in the plant’s own nursery. As a result of the work carried out in the mitigation of environmental impacts, Enercan received the Fritz Muller Award from the Santa Catarina State Government.

( 2 ) PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
 

The parent company's and consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Brazil, the Accounting Manual of the Public Electric Energy Service, as defined by ANEEL and the standards published by the Brazilian Securities Commission (“CVM”).

In order to improve the information presented to the market, the Cash Flow and Added Value Statements of the parent company and consolidated are presented for the 2005 and 2004 fiscal years respectively, as additional information, in APPENDICES I and II.

The Cash Flow Statements were prepared in accordance with the criteria established by FAS 95 – Statement of Cash Flows, with respect to the presentation format, within the context of registering the Company's financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission ( “SEC”).

Summary of the Principal Accounting Practices

a) Cash and Banks: Include cash balances, bank deposit, bank deposits certificates and short-term financial investments, which are stated at cost, plus income accrued up to the balance sheet dates.

b) Consumers, Concessionaires and Licensees: Include the supply of electric energy to final consumers, billed and unbilled, to other concessionaires for the supply of electric energy, billed and to be billed, as determined from information provided by CCEE and balances related to regulatory assets of different kinds, recorded on the accrual basis.

 


63


c) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Established based on an analysis of the amounts receivable from clients in the residential class past due by more than 90 days, commercial past due by more than 180 days and for the remaining classes past due by more than 360 days, including public sector clients. It also takes into account an individual analysis of the balances of the larger customers, including refinancing of debts, in such a way as to obtain an adequate judgment of the credits regarded as difficult to realize, based on management's experience in relation to effective losses.

d) Materials and Supplies: Materials and supplies, classified under current assets, and those intended for construction, classified in property, plant and equipment, are recorded at the average purchase cost.

e) Investments: Include interests in subsidiaries valued using the equity method. Other interests are recorded at acquisition cost, net of the provisions to reduce them to market value, where applicable.

Investments also include the goodwill recorded on the acquisition of subsidiaries, resulting from the difference between the acquisition price paid and the book equity value of the company acquired, amortized in proportion to the projected net income for the remaining period of the concession contract of each investee, in accordance with the requirements of ANEEL.

Also included are assets related to the Serra da Mesa Hydropower Plant project, which, as they are leased to FURNAS, are shown under “Investments – Leased Assets”. This investment is recorded at cost, restated to December 31, 1995, for items acquired up to that date, and net of depreciation calculated in accordance with the straight-line method, at annual rates varying between 2% to 20% p.a.

f) Property, plant and equipment: Recorded at purchase or construction cost, restated to December 31, 1995, net of depreciation calculated by the straight-line method, at annual rates varying between 2% and 20%, in accordance with the nature of the asset.

Interest and other financial charges and inflationary effects relating to financing obtained from third parties, invested in fixed assets in progress, were capitalized by the subsidiaries up to December 1995.

Interest computed on equity that financed the fixed assets, was capitalized in the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga up to March 2000, and in the subsidiary RGE up to December 1999, and is capitalized by the generation projects up to the operational startup.

Additionally, up to March of 2002, the subsidiaries capitalized administrative expenses under fixed assets in progress by apportioning 10% of the expenses for personnel and outsourced services involved in the fixed assets, and as from 2005, by apportioning personnel expenses based on the time spent on the activities linked to the investments. The subsidiaries decided to recommence capitalization of administrative expenses after technical studies to apportion these expenses.

g) Restatement of Rights and Liabilities: Rights and liabilities subject to restatement as a result of the effects of inflation or exchange variations, due to contractual or legal provisions, are restated to the balance sheet dates.

h) Income Tax and Social Contribution: are calculated and recorded in accordance with the legislation in effect on the balance sheet dates. The parent company and certain subsidiaries recorded in their financial statements the effects of tax credits relating to income tax and social contribution on tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences, supported by expectations of the future generation of income tax and social contribution payable within a period not exceeding 10 years. The subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga also recorded tax credits referring to the benefit of the goodwill merged by the subsidiaries, which are being amortized in proportion to the projected net income for the remaining period of the concession contract of each investee. For the year 2005, annual rates of 4.997631% and 5.777282%, respectively, were used for the subsidiary CPFL Paulista and the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga. These rates were determined in a projection approved by ANEEL in 2004 and are subject to periodic review.

i) Retirement and Pension Plans: The subsidiaries record the post-employment benefits and the pension plans on the accrual basis. Additionally, in 2001, they started to recognize the portion of the actuarial liabilities in excess of the plan assets, and to amortize these effects over a period of five years as from 2002.

 


64


j) Reserves for Contingencies: The reserves for contingencies are recorded by evaluating the risks involved in legal suits where loss is considered probable and quantified based on economic grounds, as assessed by management and the legal advisers in legal opinions on the existing cases and other contingency-related facts known on the balance sheet dates.

k) Derivatives: The Company and its subsidiaries signed derivative contracts for the purpose of managing the risks associated with variations in exchange and interest rates. These derivative contracts are recorded on the accrual basis. Gains and losses recorded or incurred based on these contracts are recognized as adjustments to financial income or expenses.

l) Income: Revenues and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Revenue from the distribution of electric energy is recognized when the energy is made available. Unbilled revenues relating to the monthly billing cycle are provisioned based on the previous month’s billing. Historically, the difference between the estimated unbilled revenue and the actual consumption, which is recognized in the subsequent month, has not been material. The revenue from the sale of energy generation is recorded based on the assured energy and at tariffs specified in the terms of the contract or the market price in force. There are no consumers that represent 10% or more of the total billing. The credits on operating costs and expenses offset in determination of PIS and COFINS, are stated net in the respective costs and expenses accounts.

m) Estimates: Preparation of financial statements in accordance with Brazilian Accounting Principles requires the Company and its subsidiaries to use estimates as a basis for recording certain transactions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and also the disclosure of information on data in the financial statements. The final results of these transactions and information, with respect to their effective realization in subsequent periods, may differ from these estimates.

n) Net Income per Share: Is determined considering the number of shares outstanding on the balance sheet dates.

Consolidation Principles

The consolidated financial statements cover the balances and transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries CPFL Paulista, CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil. As of December 31, 2005 the asset, liability and income balances were fully consolidated.

Prior to consolidation into the Company's financial statements, the financial statements of CPFL Paulista, CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil are consolidated with those of their subsidiaries, fully for the controlled subsidiaries or proportionally for the jointly-controlled subsidiaries, also on the same base date.

In compliance with the conditions described above, the portion relating to the non-controlling shareholders is stated separately in liabilities and income statements for the fiscal year.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in these financial statements. Additionally, the accounting policies of CPFL Energia’s subsidiaries are consistent with those of CPFL Energia. The main difference in accounting policies relates to the revaluation of property, plant and equipment recorded by the indirect subsidiary RGE, which is eliminated in the shareholders’ equity base for calculation of equity interest and, consequently, in consolidation.

a) Rationing:

At the end of 2001, as a result of the Emergency Program for Reduction of Electric Energy Consumption (”Energy Rationing Program"), which remained in effect between June 2001 and February of 2002, an agreement was signed between the generators, power distributors and the Federal Government, called the "Overall Agreement for the Electric Energy Sector", which introduced an Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment of 2.9% on electric power supply tariffs to rural, public lighting and residential consumers (except those considered to be "low income consumers") and 7.9% for all other consumers, as a mechanism to reimburse the losses incurred by the electricity sector with the rationing program.

 


67


This adjustment is being used to compensate the following regulatory assets recorded by the subsidiaries:

Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment (RTE) – Corresponds to the loss of revenue incurred during the rationing period. This asset was determined by a comparison of the sales revenues from energy effectively recorded in the period between June 1, 2001 and February 28, 2002, and projected revenue for this period, not taking into account the occurrence of the Energy Rationing Program. This asset is amortized by the revenue derived from the extraordinary tariff adjustment, net of the Energy from Independent Suppliers portion passed on to the generators. In December 2005, the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga updated the RTE in accordance with the instructions of Official letter nº 2.212/ANEEL of December 20, 2005, complemented by Official Letter nº 74/ANEEL, of January 23, 2006, which established that the simple Selic rate should be levied on the amount financed by the National Bank for Economic and Social Development - (“BNDES”), corresponding to 90% of the amounts approved by ANEEL, capitalized monthly plus 1% p.a., and on the 10% not financed, only at the Selic rate published by the Brazilian Central Bank (“BACEN”). This new form of remuneration of the RTE generated financial income of R$ 56,020 in consolidated.

According to the Electric Sector model, consumers in certain categories may opt to acquire electricity from other concessionaires, irrespective of the concession area to which they belong, becoming a free consumer.

Currently, as the RTE is charged through the tariff of the captive consumers, consumers who have opted for the free market are not paying these amounts, although they form part of the calculation base for the loss of income generated during the rationing period.

In Official Letter nº 2.218/ANEEL, ANEEL asserts that it disagrees with the interpretation that the free consumers are not subject to the RTE and states that it will introduce specific regulations to guide the distributors as to how to proceed with regard to collecting these amounts (Public Hearing nº 044/2005, of December 26, 2005, scheduled to terminate at the end of March 2006).

In view of the lack of definition and uncertainties that still surround this matter, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista and the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, took a conservative view and did not take this condition into account in projecting future results and in the analysis of realization of assets relating to the RTE, having established an additional provision for losses on the realization of this asset amounting to R$ 84,902 consolidated, set against the “Other Operating Expenses” account (note 28) for which a consolidated amount of R$ 32,250 was recognized in 2004. The addition to the provision was largely due to the new form of remuneration of the RTE mentioned above.

Electricity from Independent Suppliers (“Free Energy”) Corresponds to the energy produced and made available to the consumer market during the rationing period by the independent producers and self-producers of energy, who recorded an asset to be reimbursed by the consumer through the distributors. The distribution utilities collect the funds from the consumer through the extraordinary tariff adjustment and pass them on to the generators, recording an asset and a liability. These amounts are restated in accordance with the directives of Official Letter nº 2.212/ANEEL. Accordingly the value of the free energy of the generators, referring to the amount financed by the BNDES, was restated by applying the simple Selic rate capitalized monthly plus 1% p.a., while only the Selic rate published by BACEN was applied to the amount not covered by this financing. This new method of remuneration of the Free Energy generated financial income for CPFL Geração and RGE of R$ 6,092.

In 2004, ANEEL corrected the Free Energy amounts of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga. As a result, the necessary adjustments were recorded in 2004 to reflect the final amounts approved by ANEEL (increase of R$ 67,536 in consolidated, see note 27).

ANEEL established that percentages of 24.9757% and 33.8332%, respectively, of the total extraordinary tariff adjustment collected monthly by CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga, are to be passed on to the generators. Of the total amount collected by the distributors, a percentage of 0.2788% is to be passed on to CPFL Geração for recovery of free energy.

 


68


The Free Energy regulatory asset recorded by RGE originates from spot market sales made during the energy rationing program, relating to its share of the Itaipu energy. Accordingly, in 2005, as for RTE, the subsidiary RGE and CPFL Geração established a provision of R$ 6,904 for losses on the realization of Free Energy, recorded in the account “Other Operating Expenses” (note 28).

As a result of court orders, CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga were prevented from passing on the Free Energy amounts due to certain generators, due to the existence of legal challenges by agents in the sector in respect of free market rules. Accordingly, up to December 31, 2005, the amounts received were higher than the amounts passed on to the generators.

Parcel “A” – Corresponds to the variation in the financial amounts of non-manageable costs representing Parcel "A" of the concession contracts, between January 1 and October 25, 2001. These amounts are restated based on the variation in the SELIC rate.

The periods stipulated for realizing the regulatory assets relating to RTE and Free Energy for the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga are 72 and 61 months respectively, as from January 1, 2002. After this period, offsetting of Parcel “A” will commence, using a mechanism similar to that of the Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment, except in respect of the recovery period not yet defined by ANEEL.

The State VAT (“ICMS”) levied on the tariff recovery mechanism, corresponding to income to be billed, is only due when the corresponding electricity bills are issued to the consumers. In this respect, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista and the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga merely transfer the tax from the consumers to State Revenue Department, and therefore do not record this liability in advance.

PERCEE – the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga incurred expenses on the implementation of the rationing program that are being recovered through the tariff adjustment. These expenses, called “PERCEE – Emergency Program to Reduce the Consumption of Electric Energy" are recorded in Assets under the caption "Other" (Note 13).

b) Tariff Review and Adjustment:

CPFL Paulista

2003 Tariff Review

In April 2005, ANEEL ratified the final result of the first periodic tariff review of April 2003 (previously on a provisional basis, at a percentage of 21.10%) for the subsidiary CPFL Paulista and established that the electricity supply tariffs should be fixed at 20.29% . It also established the Xe factor (reflecting the productivity gains) at 1.1352% to be applied as a reducer of the “Parcel B” manageable costs for subsequent annual tariff adjustments until the next periodic review in 2008.

With the approval of the regulatory remuneration basis and the reintegration quota pursuant to the terms of Resolution nº 493, of September 3, 2002, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista recognized a liability (note 24), as a balancing item for Revenue from Electricity Sales to Final Consumers, amounting to R$ 48,888 (note 26). These amounts are being deducted from the Annual Tariff Adjustments in force as from April 8, 2005 as ratified by ANEEL. The amount of R$ 32,581 was deducted and amortized in the same accounts up to December 31, 2005.

Additionally, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista recognized an asset of R$ 33,100 (note 5), recorded as long-term, increasing Revenue from Electricity Sales to Final Consumers by R$ 28,442 (note 26), with reference to the main portion, and increasing financial income by R$ 4,658 (note 29) relating to restatement by the IGP-M. This asset arises from the difference noted in the ratification of the tariff as a result of the review of the regulatory annual depreciation rate of 4.64%, used by ANEEL to calculate the reintegration quota and the annual percentage of 4.85%, calculated by the subsidiary CPFL Paulista based on information provided to the granting authority.

 


70

The ANEEL Economic and Financial Inspection Office carried out a specific inspection confirming the correctness of the percentage of 4.85% . CPFL Paulista is currently awaiting final approval by the ANEEL Board of Directors, with a favorable recommendation from the Superintendant of the Economic and Financial Inspectorate. In view of this situation, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista does not consider there is any risk concerning the realization of this asset.

2005 Tariff Adjustment

Through Ratification Resolution nº 81, of April 6, 2005, ANEEL established the Annual Tariff Adjustment for the subsidiary CPFL Paulista at an average percentage of 17.74%, in force for tariffs as from April 8, 2005, composed as follows: (i) 10.58% due to the Annual Tariff Adjustment, and (ii) 17.16% p.a. due to the tariff components that are not included in the annual adjustment, specifically, the CVA of the current year and 50% of the CVA amounts for the period April 2002 to March 2003, as established by Interministerial Ordinance nº 116, of April 4, 2003.

In accordance with the Addendum to the Concession Contract signed on March 14, 2005, PIS and COFINS expenses actually incurred by the Concessionaire were included in the electricity supply billed as from July 1, 2005, and are accordingly not included in the tariff mentioned above.

Also, in view of the bases for the tariff established, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista recognized an amount of R$ 16,875 in current assets (note 5), referring to reimbursement of the following costs:

Assets Appraisal Report in the amount of R$ 1,350, set against operating expense (note 28), with a total amount of R$ 900 amortized in the year;
 
PIS and COFINS amounting to R$ 13,002, levied on the financial effects of the adjustment of April 2004, mainly on the amortization of the CVA billed in 2004. This was set against Deduction from Operating Revenue, and a total amount of R$ 8,665 was amortized in the year; and
 
Discount conceded on the Network Usage Charge – TUSD, billed in 2004, amounting to R$ 2,523. This was set against Operating Revenue (note 26), and a total amount of R$1,682 was amortized in the year.
 

These amounts were recorded in the first quarter of 2005 and are being passed on in the Annual Tariff Adjustment effective as from April 8, 2005, as ratified by ANEEL.

Additionally, ANEEL, through Official Letter nº 176/2005-SRE/ANEEL, of July 12, 2005, pointed out an inconsistency in the amount of the expense for acquisition of electricity from Itaipu Binacional taken into consideration in calculation of the Annual Tariff Adjustment of April 8, 2005. This inconsistency allowed the subsidiary CPFL Paulista to recognize the right to complementary revenue of R$ 41,206, net of PIS and COFINS (R$ 45,406 with PIS and COFINS), which is being restated at the IGP-M rate and will be taken into consideration in the 2006 tariff adjustment. Up to December 31, 2005, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista recognized a revenue of R$ 33,339 on a daily pro rata basis, and as a balancing item, an increase in financial expense of R$ 101 and recognition of a Tariff Adjustment Asset (note 5) of R$ 33,238.

The increase of R$ 15,351 in the rate of PIS and COFINS to be passed on to generators was also taken into consideration in this tariff adjustment. The subsidiary CPFL Paulista recorded a liability (note 17), increasing the cost of electric energy (note 27), whereby an amount of R$ 1,279 is passed on monthly to generators as from May 2005. The subsidiary CPFL Paulista also recorded an asset of the same amount as the liability (note 5), increasing revenue (note 26), which is being amortized in accordance with billing to consumers. Up to December 31, 2005 the subsidiary CPFL Paulista had amortized R$ 10,230.

The amounts mentioned in the above paragraphs referring to PIS and COFINS passed on in the tariffs are not final, as the criteria for inclusion of these taxes in the tariffs was the subject of specific discussion in the Public Hearing of July 20, 2005 (ANEEL Call Notice nº 014/2005) and will be subject to final regulation after completion of the work of the above-mentioned public hearing. Any differences in the amounts passed on are to be offset in the future.

CPFL Piratininga

2003 Tariff Review

On October 22, 2003, through Ratification Resolution No. 565, ANEEL determined the periodic tariff review for the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga at a rate of 18.08%, on a provisional basis. However, to maintain a reasonable tariff level and the economic and financial equilibrium of the concession contract, the tariff increase authorized was 14.68% . A provision had been established for the difference between these percentages since 2003, and it was expected that it would be recovered over the next three annual tariff adjustments.

On October 18, 2004, through Ratification Resolution nº 245, ANEEL changed the above tariff review to 10.51%, still on a provisional basis. In order to reflect the new percentage, the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga made the following adjustments in the result of operations for 2004: (i) reversal of the regulatory asset referring to the differential between 18.08% and 14.68% amounting to R$ 13,798, for the accounting entries made in 2003, (ii) establishing a regulatory liability of R$ 69,744 relating to the difference between the percentage of 14.68% and the lower rate of 10.51%, and (iii) establishing a regulatory asset of R$ 2,716 (R$ 2,360 net of amortization as of December 31, 2004) in relation to TUSD.

On October 18, 2005, through Ratification Resolution nº 228, ANEEL finally ratified the first periodic tariff review of October 2003 of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, approving the Regulatory Remuneration Base and the reintegration quota, pursuant to Resolution 493, of September 3, 2002; it also approved the operating costs based on the methodology of the hypothetical model company, and it was established that the electricity supply tariffs would be adjusted by 9.67% . This percentage took into account the effects of Art. 1 of ANEEL Resolution nº 336, of August 16, 2001, relating to the spin-off of Bandeirante Energia S.A., which determines the use of the lower of the tariff realignment indexes of the two concessionaires. As the index for Bandeirante was 9.67% and that of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga was 11.52%, the index of 9.67% prevailed.

Additionally, the final value of the “Xe” Factor was established, showing productivity gains at 0.8294%, to be applied as a reducer of “Parcel B” manageable costs for subsequent annual tariff adjustments.

Accordingly, to reflect the final percentage defined, the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga increased the provision for the regulatory liability for the new percentage of 9.67%, by the amount of R$ 31,798 (note 26), as a balancing item for Revenue from Electricity Sales to Final Consumers. Additionally, liabilities and monetary restatement expense of R$ 145 and amortization of R$ 16,181 were recorded in the year, making up the liability balance of R$ 86,875 (R$ 71,113 in 2004) (note 24).

2005 Tariff Adjustment

Through Ratification Resolution nº 229, of October 18, 2005, ANEEL established the annual tariff adjustment of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, increasing the electricity tariffs by an average percentage of 1.54%, composed as follows: 0.74% relating to the annual tariff adjustment and 0.80% relating to tariff components that are not covered by the annual adjustment. One of the main external components is the last payment of 50% of the CVA balance, calculated in the period October 2002 to September 2003, and the tariff refund resulting from the final ratification of the 2003 Tariff Review.

In accordance with the Addendum to the Concession Contract signed on September 1, 2005, PIS and COFINS expenses effetively incurred by the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga were included in the electricity supply billed as from October 23, 2005, and are accordingly not included in the tariff mentioned above.

Also, in view of the bases established in the ratification of the Resolution, the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga recognized an amount of R$ 8,759 in current assets (note 5), referring to reimbursement of the following costs:

Assets Appraisal Report in the amount of R$ 1,952, set against operating expense (note 28), with a total amount of R$ 307 amortized in the year;
 
PIS and COFINS amounting to R$ 3,233 levied on the financial effects of the adjustment of October 2004, mainly on the amortization of the CVA billed in 2004. This was set against Deduction from Operating Revenue, and a total amount of R$ 509 was amortized in the year;
 
Discount conceded on the Network Usage Charge – TUSD, billed in 2004, amounting to R$ 1,486. This was set against Operating Revenue (note 26), and a total amount of R$ 2,275 was amortized in the year (R$ 233 for the 2005 Tariff Adjustment and R$ 2,042 for the 2004 Tariff Adjustment), and;
 
Refund of an amount of R$ 2,088, relating to the 2002 RGR difference, unduly deducted by ANEEL in the October 2004 tariff adjustment. This was set against Operating Revenue (note 26), and a total amount of R$ 328 was amortized in the year.

 


72

The increase of R$ 7,607 in the rate of PIS and COFINS, to be passed on to generators, was also taken into consideration in this tariff adjustment. The indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga recorded a liability (note 17), increasing the cost of electric energy (note 27), whereby an amount of R$ 634 is being passed on monthly to generators as from November 2005. The subsidiary CPFL Piratininga also recorded an asset of the same amount as the liability (note 5), increasing revenue (note 26), which is being amortized in accordance with billing to consumers as from October 2005.

The amounts mentioned in the above paragraphs referring to PIS and COFINS passed on in the tariffs are not final, as the criteria for inclusion of these taxes in the tariffs were the subject of specific discussion in the Public Hearing of July 20, 2005 (ANEEL Call Notice nº 014/2005) and will be subject to final regulation after completion of the work of the above-mentioned public hearing. Any differences in the amounts passed on are to be offset in the future.

RGE

2005 Tariff Adjustment

Through Ratification Resolution nº 92, of April 18, 2005, ANEEL established the Annual Tariff Adjustment for the jointly-controlled RGE, increasing the electricity tariffs by an average percentage of 21.93%, composed as follows: (i) 14.57% due to the Annual Tariff Adjustment and (ii) 7.35% due to the tariff components that are not included in the annual adjustment, specifically, the CVA of the current year and 50% of the CVA amounts for a prior period, as established by Interministerial Ordinance nº 116, of April 4, 2003.

c) Deferred Tariff Cost (Gain) Variations (“CVA”):

Refer to the mechanism for compensation of the variations in unmanageable costs incurred by the electric power distribution concessionaires. This variation is calculated in accordance with the difference between the expenses effectively incurred and the expenses estimated at the time of composing the tariffs for the annual tariff adjustments. However, a portion of these amounts is still pending ratification.

The following expenses are currently considered unmanageable costs: (i) tariff for electricity purchased, (ii) tariff for the electric energy transmission from Itaipu Binacional, (iii) System Service Charges, (iv) usage tariff for the transmission installations forming the basic network, (v) payment quota to the Fuel Consumption Account – CCC and (vi) payment quota to the Energy Development Account – CDE. The amounts included in the CVA are restated based on the SELIC rate.

d) Regulatory Asset resulting from the increase in PIS and COFINS:

Refers to the difference between the costs, including the PIS and COFINS amounts calculated by applying the current legislation, and those incorporated in the tariff. Although the 2005 tariff adjustments already cover the majority of these costs, this matter should give rise to final regulation after the conclusion of the Public Hearing set up by ANEEL on July 20, 2005 (ANEEL call notice nº 014/2005).

The recognition and realization of the asset were recorded as “Prepaid Expenses”, and as a balancing item, the respective accounts under “Deductions from Operating Revenue”.

The net amount of PIS and COFINS calculated up to December 31, 2005 was R$ 41,474 (R$ 46,483 as of December 31, 2004 in consolidated). In view of their provisional nature, these amounts are subject to alteration at the time of their final ratification by the regulatory body.

e) Low Income Consumers’ Subsidy:

Law No. 10,438, of April 26, 2002, and Decree No. 4,336, of August 15, 2002 , established new guidelines and criteria for the classification of consumer units in the low-income residential sub-class. According to the legislation, this new criteria encompasses consumer units served by monophase circuits, with an average monthly consumption in the last 12 months of less than 80kWh, and consumer units with an average monthly consumption in the last 12 months of 80 to 220kWh, provided certain specific requirements are complied with, such as enrollment in Federal Government Social Programs.

As the subsidies granted to the consumers are to be offset in the ambit of the concessionaire itself, through the tariff charged to the other consumers of the market served, and as the introduction of this new criteria has an impact on the tariff levels in force, in addition to the principal of reasonable tariffs for the rest of the market, ANEEL has established a new methodology for calculating the subsidy, which has been applied monthly since May 2002.

After ratification by ANEEL, the amounts calculated using this new methodology should be settled as follows:

The changes in the balances in the course of 2005 are as follows:

    Consolidated 
   
    Asset    Liability 
     
 
Balances as of December 31, 2004    43,995    (5,175)
Revenue Loss (Gain)    20,729    (2,781)
Amortization - 2005 Tariff Adjustment      3,381 
Amounts received as approved by ANEEL    (17,541)  
Monetary Restatement      (825)
     
Balances as of December 31, 2005    47,183    (5,400)
     

f) Surplus Energy from the 2005 Auctions:

The electricity distribution concessionaires are obliged to guarantee 100% of their energy and power market through contracts approved, registered and ratified by ANEEL. They also guarantee to pass on to the tariffs the cost or income from excess or shortfall of electricity of the electricity distribution concessionaires, limited to 3% of the energy load requirement.

 


74

The net energy surpluses of the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga for 2005 were made available to CCEE for short-term sale, and are consequently liquidated at the short-term market price, which is lower than the average price defined in the IRT – Tariff Adjustment Index.

The price difference between the cost of the surplus energy and the actual sale value on the short-term market resulted in financial losses of R$ 44,212 for the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga, recorded as Prepaid Expenses with a balancing item recorded as Cost of Electric Energy (note 27). This loss is to be passed on to final consumers in the 2006 Tariff Adjustment.

This amount was reclassified to long-term, since the subsidiary CPFL Paulista is still awaiting the result of administrative procedures in the Federal Revenue Office regarding the setting off, which has to be ratified, and because there is no clear indication as to the date on which it will actually be realized.

As of December 31, 2005, the Company recorded part of the tax credits referring to tax loss carryforwards, based on expectations of generation of income tax and social contribution payable in the future over a period of 10 years.

Expectation of recovery

The expected recovery of the deferred tax credits derived from the tax loss carryforward and temporary nondeductible expenses is based on the income projections prepared by the Company and its subsidiaries, as follows:

    2005 
   
Annual expectation of recovery    Parent Company   Consolidated
     
 
2006    21,000    179,594 
2007    7,000    147,970 
2008    8,000    70,461 
2009    7,000    14,102 
2010    7,000    10,838 
2011    6,000    6,663 
2012    5,000    5,572 
From 2013 up to 2015    11,000    14,306 
     
Total    72,000    449,506 
     

This forecast is subject to change, as the final results, at the time of actual realization in subsequent periods, may differ from those taken into account in the projections. Accordingly, the Company and its subsidiaries decided to classify these credits as Long-term Assets.

The income projections, on which the realization of the deferred tax credits of the Company and its subsidiaries were based, were approved by the Boards of Directors and examined by the Fiscal Committee.

This lease contract grants SEMESA the right to 51.54% of the total assured energy of the plant. This energy is also sold to Furnas, with a price restatement clause tied to the variation of the IGP-M, scheduled to terminate in 2014.

CPFL Paulista

The Floating Rate Notes establish limitations on making investments of amounts exceeding R$ 151 million in 2004, R$ 152 million in 2005, and R$ 160 million in 2006. However, in view of the fact that the investments made in the distribution network of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista exceeded the limit established in 2005, and since these investments will not compromise the flow of payments of the subsidiary’s obligations, the creditor banks granted a waiver releasing the subsidiary from complying with this condition.

The Floating Rate Notes also establish that, as of December 31, 2005, CPFL Paulista should maintain the following financial ratios:

a) Total Shareholders' Equity divided by the sum of total net equity and total indebtedness not less than 42% (on a consolidated basis) and 37% (on a non-consolidated basis);

The loan from IDB raised by ENERCAN establishes restrictions including clauses that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios within pre-established parameters, summarized as follows:

a) Service Coverage Ratio of the Historic Debt and Service Coverage Ratio of the Projected Debt, on the date of payment of at least 1.30 and 1.30 respectively. The ratio is calculated by dividing the net cash flow from operations by debt service.

96

b) The Indebtedness Ratio should have a maximum proportion of 75% of debt to 25% of equity.

Certain loans and financing of the direct and indirect subsidiaries are subject to early settlement in the event of changes in the Company’s structure or in the corporate structure of the subsidiaries that resulting in the loss, on the part of the Company’s current shareholders, of the share control or of control over management of the Company, or in the reduction in the direct or indirect interest of VBC Energia S.A. in the capital of CPFL Paulista to a percentage of less than 25%.

( 20 ) EMPLOYEE PENSION PLANS 
 

The subsidiaries CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and CPFL Geração, through Fundação CESP, and the jointly-controlled subsidiary RGE, through Fundação ELETROCEEE, sponsor supplementary retirement and pension plans for their employees. The main characteristics of these plans are as follows:

CPFL Paulista and CPFL Geração

The plan currently in force for the employees of the subsidiaries is a Mixed Benefit Plan, with the following characteristics:

a) Defined Benefit Plan (“BD”) – in force until September 30, 1997 – defined benefit plan, which grants a Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit (BSPS), in the form of a lifetime income convertible into a pension, to participants enrolled prior to September 30, 1997, the amount being defined in proportion to the accumulated past service time up to that date, based on compliance with the regulatory requirements for granting. The total responsibility for coverage of actuarial deficits of this plan falls to the subsidiary CPFL Paulista.

b) Adoption of a mixed model, as from October 1, 1997, which covers retirements for risk (disability and death) according to the defined-benefit concept, and programmable retirements within the defined-contribution concept.

With the modification of the Retirement Plan in September of 1997, a liability was recognized as being payable by the subsidiaries related with the plan's deficit calculated at the time by the external actuaries of Fundação CESP, to be liquidated in 240 installments, amortized monthly, plus interest of 6% p.a. and restatement according to the IGP-DI (FGV). The balance of the liability as of December 31, 2005 was R$ 733,403 (R$ 743,045 in 2004). The liability was adjusted to comply with the criteria of CVM ruling 371, of December 13, 2000.

CPFL Piratininga

As a result of the spin-off of Bandeirante Energia S.A., CPFL Piratininga assumed responsibility for the actuarial liabilities corresponding to the employees retired by that company up to the effective date of the spin-off, plus the liabilities corresponding to the active employees transferred to CPFL Piratininga.

On April 2, 1998, the Supplementary Pensions Department – SPC approved the restructuring of the retirement plan previously maintained by Bandeirante Energia S.A. (predecessor to CPFL Piratininga), giving rise to a "Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit Plan – BSPS”, and a "Mixed Benefit Plan", with the following characteristics:

a) Defined Benefit Plan (“BD”) – in force until March 31, 1998 – a defined-benefit plan, which concedes a Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit (BSPS), in the form of a lifetime income convertible into a pension, to participants registered up to March 31, 1998, to an amount calculated in proportion to the accumulated past service time up to that date, based on compliance with the regulatory requirements for granting. CPFL Piratininga is fully responsible for covering the actuarial deficits of this Plan.

b) Defined Benefit Plan – effective after March 31, 1998 – defined-benefit type plan, which concedes a lifetime income convertible into a pension related with the past service time accumulated after March 31, 1998 based on 70% of the average monthly real salary, referring to the last 36 months of active service. In the event of death while working and the onset of a disability, the benefits incorporate the entire past service time (including the accumulated time up to March 31, 1998), and therefore do not include only the past service time accumulated after March 31, 1998. The responsibility for covering the actuarial deficits of this Plan is equally divided between CPFL Piratininga and the participants.

c) Defined-Contribution Plan - implemented together with the Defined-Benefit plan effective after March 31, 1998, is a pension plan, which up to the granting of lifetime income, convertible (or not) into a pension, is a defined-contribution type, and does not generate any actuarial liability for CPFL Piratininga. The pension plan only becomes Defined-Benefit type after the concession of the lifetime income, convertible (or not) into a pension, and therefore starts to generate actuarial liabilities for the subsidiary.



99

Rio Grande Energia S.A.

In accordance with the privatization notice, the subsidiary RGE is responsible for payment of supplementary retirement benefits for past service granted by the INSS to the participants of the Fundação CEEE welfare fund – ELETROCEEE, who have not yet fulfilled all the requirements to obtain the benefit. The supplementary plan is of the "defined-benefit" type, with a level of benefit of 100% of the average of recent salaries, including the Social Security benefit.

The amounts recognized in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2005, of the subsidiaries, in accordance with an appraisal prepared by an external actuary, are presented as follows (the figures for RGE are proportional to the interest of the parent company CPFL Paulista):

The actuarial losses not recognized as of December 31, 2005, do not exceed 10% of the Plan's liabilities, and there is no need for future recognition by means of amortization during the remaining useful lives of the plan's participants. These losses, if they occur, will be absorbed through future payments to the Plans.

The increase in liabilities resulting from adopting CVM 371 refers to the plan's deficit calculated as of December 31, 2001, which was deferred and is being amortized in 5 years. This amortization was classified in the income statement for the 2005 and 2004 fiscal years as an extraordinary item, at the net value of tax effects corresponding to the amount of R$ 32,559 (R$ 33,655 in 2004).

The reserves for contingencies were based on appraisal of the risks of losing litigation to which the Company and its subsidiaries are parties, where a loss is probable in the opinion of the legal advisers and the management of the Company and its subsidiaries.

A summary of the principal issues pending relating to litigation, legal cases and tax assessments is as follows:

- Labor: The principal labor suits relate to claims filed by former employees or unions for the payment of additional salary payments (overtime, salary parity, severance payments and other claims).

Under the terms of the Bandeirante spin-off protocol, CPFL Piratininga is responsible for the liabilities corresponding to the contingent risks of the employees located in the corresponding regions assumed by CPFL Piratininga, while corporate litigation prior to the date of the spin-off, October 1, 2001, is assumed in proportion to the percentage of the controlling shareholders prior to the spin-off (56% for Bandeirante and 44% for CPFL Piratininga).

- Personal damages: Mainly refer to claims for indemnities. These cases include claims relating to accidents in the subsidiaries' electrical networks, damage to consumers, vehicle accidents, etc.

- Tariff increase: Corresponds to various claims by industrial consumers against the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga as a result of increases imposed by DNAEE Ordinances 38 and 45, dated February 27 and March 4, 1986, when the “Plano Cruzado” economic plan price freeze was in effect.

- Energy purchased: As result of the loss of free consumers, the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga requested a reduction in the power demand of the initial supply contracts, which was partially granted by ANEEL. The subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga filed a lawsuit on the grounds of disagreement with the physical amounts established by the Agency, alleging a discrepancy in the calculations and making monthly judicial deposits of the amounts in question.

- FINSOCIAL: Refers to the questioning in the courts of the increase in rate and collection of FINSOCIAL during the period June 1989 to October 1991. CPFL Paulista obtained injunctions to guarantee non-payment by means of judicial deposits. The judicial deposits are being recorded in the "Escrow Deposits" caption under long-term assets, and are restated, as is the contingency, in accordance with the variation in the Daily Reference Rate (“TRD”).



104

- PIS and COFINS – Expansion of base: The subsidiary CPFL Paulista and the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga obtained injunctions in 2002, with a view to dispensing with payment of PIS and COFINS due on the expansion of the calculation base of these taxes, laid down in Law n.º 9,718, of November 27, 1998. Although the Supreme Court has judged similar cases in favor of the taxpayer, the subsidiaries are awaiting the final judgment for reversal of the reserve.

- PIS and COFINS – Interest on Equity: at the end of 2005, the Company obtained an injunction with a view to non-payment of PIS and COFINS levied on interest on equity.

- Income tax: For the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, the entry refers to the injunction obtained in respect of the tax deductibility of CSLL in calculating IRPJ. For the subsidiary RGE, it refers basically to a request for suspension of a decision of the Federal Revenue Office, with a view to considering the deductibility of amounts referring to complementing the retirement provisions of beneficiaries of Fundação ELETROCEEE.

- Other - Tax: Refers to other suits in progress at the judicial and administrative levels and of a regulatory nature resulting from operation of the subsidiaries' businesses, relating to tax issues involving INSS, FGTS and SAT.

The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to other suits in which, management supported by its legal advisers, believes that the chances of a successful outcome are possible, due to a solid defensive base in these cases. It is not yet possible to predict the outcome of the courts’ decisions or any other decision on similar cases considered to be probable or remote. The claims relating to possible losses as of December 31, 2005 were as follows: (i) R$ 122,848 referring to labor cases; (ii) R$ 115,914 referring to civil cases basically represented by personal injuries; and (iii) R$ 150,917 referring to claims relating to tax issues, principally Income Tax, PIS and COFINS.

Management of the Company and its subsidiaries, based on the opinion of the legal advisers, considers that there are no significant risks that are not covered by sufficient provisions in the financial statements or that could result in a significant impact on future results.

( 35 ) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATING RISKS 
 

35.1 RISKS CONSIDERATIONS

The business of the Company and its subsidiaries basically comprises the supply of energy to final consumers, as public service utilities, whose activities and tariffs are regulated by ANEEL. The principal market risk factors that affect their business are the following:

Exchange Rate Risk: This risk is derived from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses and cash constraints on account of fluctuations in exchange rates, increasing the balances of foreign currency denominated liabilities. The Company and its subsidiaries protect themselves against this risk by contracting hedge/swap operations, so that the debts are indexed to the variation in domestic indices. These operations are recorded on the accrual basis and in accordance with the conditions of the instrument contracted.

Foreign Currency Loans: Exposure on loans was substantially covered through financial swap transactions operations, which allowed the Company and the subsidiaries to exchange the original risks of the operation for the cost in proportion to the CDI (note 18).

Purchase of Energy from Itaipu: The subsidiaries are exposed in their operations to exchange variations on the purchase of electricity from Itaipu. The compensation mechanism - CVA protects the companies against possible losses, as mentioned in note 3.

Interest Rate Risk: This risk is derived from the possibility of the Company and subsidiaries incurring losses on account of fluctuations in interest rates that increase financial expenses relating to loans, financing and debentures. In the case of loans borrowed in foreign currency, the Company and its subsidiaries have arranged derivative contracts to hedge against this risk (see the swap relating to the Floating Rate Notes mentioned in note 18) and, for a portion of the loans taken out in local currency, the subsidiaries have as counterparts regulatory assets restated in accordance with the variation in the “Selic” rate. The subsidiaries have also tried to increase the participation of loans tied to the variation in the TJLP, an index less susceptible to the oscillations of the financial market.

Credit Risk: This risk arises from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses resulting from difficulties in receiving amounts billed to customers. This risk is evaluated by the Company and its subsidiaries as low due to the fragmentation of the number of costumers and the policy of collections and supplies cuts to defaulting costumers.

Risk of Energy Shortages: The energy sold by the subsidiaries is basically generated by hydropower plants. A prolonged period of low rainfall could reduce the volume of water in the reservoirs of the power plants and result in losses based on the increase in costs of purchasing energy or a reduction in revenues with the adoption of a new rationing program, similar to that of 2001. Due to the current level of the reservoirs, the National Electricity System Operator (“ONS"), does not envisage another rationing program in 2006.

Risk of Acceleration of Debts: The subsidiaries have loan agreements, financing and debentures with restrictive clauses (covenants) normally applicable to these kinds of operation, related with compliance with economic and financial ratios, cash generation and others. These covenants have been complied with and do not limit the capacity to operate normally.

35.2 VALUATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company and its subsidiaries maintain operating and financial policies and strategies aimed at ensuring the liquidity, security and profitability of their assets. As a result, control and follow-up procedures are in place on the transactions and balances of financial instruments, for the purpose of monitoring the risks and current rates in relation to those used in the market.



116

The principal financial asset and liability instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2005, are described below, together with the criteria for their valuation and appraisal in the financial statements:

Cash and Banks: Comprise cash, bank accounts and short-term cash investments. The market value of these assets approximates to the amounts stated in the balance sheets (note 4).

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities: Are basically composed of the Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment, Free Energy, Parcel “A”, PERCEE, Assets and Liabilities relating to financial compensation, result of the Periodic Tariff Review, CVA, compensation for the low income subsidy, PIS and COFINS regulatory assets and others. These credits and debits are derived from the effects of the 2001 rationing plan and other amounts relating to the deferral of tariff costs and gains and changes in the tax legislation. These amounts are valued at book value, in accordance with criteria defined by ANEEL, with the characteristics described in note 3.

Loans and Financing: Are valued in accordance with the criteria stipulated in the contracts, with the characteristics defined in note 18. As mentioned above, as of December 31, 2005, CPFL Energia and its subsidiaries maintained financial swap instruments for their foreign currency denominated loans and international interest charges. The purpose of these contracted instruments is to protect the operations of the subsidiaries against exchange and international interest rate fluctuations and they are not used for speculative purposes.

Debentures: The debentures issued by the subsidiaries are traded on the market and are valued in accordance with the criteria stipulated at the time of issue, according to the characteristics defined in note 19.

Investments in subsidiaries: the Company has investments valued in accordance with the equity method in companies whose stock is traded on the capital markets. Company management considers that the trading value of these shares is not representative of the market value of the respective companies given the small volume of transactions in this stock on the market.

The estimated market value of the financial instruments of the Company and the subsidiaries was based on models that discount future cash flows to present value, comparison with similar transactions contracted on dates close to the closing date of the fiscal year and comparisons with average market parameters. In the case of operations with no similar transactions in the market, principally related with the emergency electricity rationing program, regulatory aspects and credits receivable from CESP, the Company and its subsidiaries assumed that the market value corresponds to the book value.

The carrying values of the principal financial instruments of the Company and the subsidiaries, compared with market fundraising costs, as defined above, as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:

( 36 ) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 
 

36.1 Segregation of Equity interest

Through Authorizing Resolution nº 305 of September 5, 2005, ANEEL agreed to the transfer of control of CPFL Piratininga and RGE, which is held by CPFL Paulista, directly to the Company. This should be put into effect by April 14, 2006 and March 14, 2007, respectively.

The subsidiaries and their new direct controller, CPFL Energia, will sign the respective addendum to the distribution concession contracts within a maximum of 30 days as from the formal call notice from ANEEL.

36.2 Public Distribution of Debentures of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Piratininga

A meeting of the Board of Directors of the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga held on January 6, 2006 decided on the public distribution of 40,000 debentures not convertible into shares, 1st issue, nominative and book entry, in a single series, subordinated type, with a unit par value on the issue date of R$ 10,000.00 (ten thousand reais), amounting to a total of R$ 400,000,000.00 (four hundred million reais) remunerated at 104% of the CDI, maturing on January 1, 2011.

An Announcement of Closing of Public Distribution of Debentures was published on February 22, 2006, advising exclusively for information purposes that the debentures had been subscribed and paid-up.

36.3 - Voluntary Discharge Program

In January 2006, the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga launched the Voluntary Discharge Program, effective from January 24, 2006 to February 10, 2006, intended for employees who are in a position to take full or proportional retirement through the INSS and/or Fundação CESP. The costs to be generated by this plan will be recognized during fiscal year 2006, as soon as the final terms become known.
