Trading volume in Cemig’s preferred shares (CMIG4) in 2020 was R$ 17.2 billion, of which R$ 8.25 billion was traded in the second quarter, corresponding to a daily average of R$ 139.88 million – 8.66% higher than in 2Q19. Trading volume in Cemig’s common shares in 1H20 was R$ 2.91bn, with average daily trading volume of R$ 23.66mn in 1H20 and R$ 21.61mn in the second quarter. Cemig’s shares, by volume (aggregate of common (ON) and preferred (PN) shares), were the third most liquid in Brazil’s electricity sector in the period, and among the most traded in the whole Brazilian equity market.

On the New York Stock Exchange the volume traded in ADRs for Cemig’s preferred shares (CIG) in 1H20 was US$1.34 billion. We see this as reflecting recognition by the investor market of Cemig as a global investment option.

The Bovespa index, benchmark for the São Paulo stock exchange, fell strongly, by 17.80%, in 1H20, as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, despite the 30.18% in 2Q20. Cemig’s preferred shares fell by a similar percentage, 20.09%; and the common shares fell 23.73%. In the 2Q20, CMIG4 rose 23.68% and CMIG3 31.68%.

2Q20 RESULTS

 

In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated

 

For second quarter 2020 (2Q20), Cemig reports net profit of R$ 1,043,994, which compares to net profit of R$ 2,113,986 in 2Q19.

 

Leading factors in the 2Q20 result:

§ Gain on the Periodic Tariff Review of Cemig GT: R$ 429,840.
§ Heavy impact of the Covid-19 epidemic on the volume of electricity distributed in 2Q20: down 6% YoY. This effect reached approximately –10.5% in April 2020, and has been showing signs of recovery: load in June and July has been close to that of 2019. Another effect of the pandemic was that the allowance for doubtful receivables in Cemig D was R$ 57,295 higher than in 2Q19. The amount provisioned in 2Q20 was R$ 102,504.
§ The result of Cemig GT was affected by sale of energy at the lower limit of contractual flexibility ranges for a relevant part of the clients, due to the pandemic.
§ Cemig GT posted a gain of R$ 70,770 in Financial revenues (expenses), related to the debt in Eurobonds and the related hedge instrument. In 2Q19, the combined effect of the debt and the hedge on Financial Revenue (expenses) was R$ 557,833 positive.
§ Reversal of part of the impairment of Light posted in 1Q20, with recognition of the market value of the investment at June 30, generating a gain in 2Q20 of R$ 475,137, which net of taxes is R$ 313,590.
§ Continuing reduction of costs of PMSO (Personnel, materials, services and other expenses), which were 8.3% lower YoY – after exclusion of the expenses of R$ 58,850 on the PDVP voluntary retirement plan, posted in 2Q20.
§ Cemig D recorded a revenue from transactions under the Surplus Sales Mechanism (MVE) totaled R$ 41,514 in 2Q20.

44 

§ In 2Q19, an impairment of R$ 688,031 was recognized of Accounts receivable from Renova; the amount of impairment posted in 2Q20 was R$ 37,361.
§ In 2Q19, was recorded a revenue of R$1,438,563 from Tax credits in ICMS/PIS-Cofins case and financial revenue of R$1,553,112 for updating of these credits.

 

The ‘Covid Account’

On May 18, 2020, in response to the state of public calamity caused by the Covid 19 pandemic, Decree 10350/2020 authorized creation of the ‘Covid Account’, the purpose of which was to cover deficits, or anticipate revenue, of holders of concessions or permissions to distribute electricity – the basis of the financial flows of the electricity sector, especially related to: (i) overcontracting of supply; (ii) the CVA (‘Portion A’ Variation Compensation Account); (iii) neutrality of sector charges; (iv) postponement until June 30, 2020 of the results of tariff review processes for distributors ratified up to that date; and (v) bringing forward of the regulatory asset relating to Portion B, as per an Aneel regulation and timetable decided by the distributor.

 

On June 23, 2020 Aneel issued Normative Resolution 885/2020, setting the criteria and procedures for management of the Covid Account, and also regulating use of the CDE tariff charge. Under this Resolution, the amounts transferred to each distributor are reverted as negative financial components up to the tariff adjustment processes of 2022, duly updated by the Selic rate, with neutrality assured.

 

Cemig D accepted the financial offsetting mechanism of the Covid Account, with a view to strengthening its cash position, enabling compliance with its financial obligations even during the reduction of revenue caused by the severe economic downturn. On July 9, 2020, Aneel informed Cemig D of the amount from the Covid Account to be allocated to it – a total of R$ 1,404,175, to be passed through in stages. The first tranche, of R$ 1,186,390, was received on July 31, 2020, with the remaining total of R$ 217,785 to be received in six monthly payments in August 2020 through January 2021.

45 

Measures to preserve liquidity

In addition to accepting the terms of the Covid Account, to preserve liquidity and mitigate the effects of the impact on the macro economy, the Company took measures including the following:

 

§ Revision of its program of investments and expenses.
§ Payment of minimum dividends to stockholders, and postponement of the payments of dividends and Interest on Equity to the end of 2020.
§ Negotiation of its contracts with Free Clients.
§ Deferral of payment of employment-law taxes and charges, as authorized by legislation.

 

Cemig’s consolidated electricity market

 

The Cemig Group makes its sales of electricity through its distribution company, Cemig Distribuição (‘Cemig D’), its generation and transmission company, Cemig Geração e Transmissão (‘Cemig GT’), and other wholly-owned subsidiaries:

Horizontes Energia, Sá Carvalho, Cemig PCH, Rosal Energia, the wind power companies Praias de Parajuru and Volta do Rio, Cemig Geração Camargos, Cemig Geração Itutinga, Cemig Geração Salto Grande, Cemig Geração Três Marias, Cemig Geração Leste, Cemig Geração Oeste, and Cemig Geração Sul.

 

These companies sell electricity to:

(i) Captive consumers in Cemig’s concession area in the State of Minas Gerais;
(ii) Free Consumers in both the State of Minas Gerais and other States of Brazil, in the Free Market (Ambiente de Contratação Livre, or ACL);
(iii) other agents of the electricity sector – traders, generators and independent power producers, also in the ACL; and
(iv) Distributors, in the Regulated Market (Ambiente de Contratação Regulada, or ACR).

 

The Cemig group traded a total of 12,988,626 MWh on the CCEE in 2Q20, 1.0% less than in 2Q19. Sales of electricity to final consumers, plus Cemig’s own consumption,

46 

totaled 9,587,085 MWh, or 10.4% less than in 2Q19. Sales to distributors, traders, other generating companies and independent power producers in 2Q20 were 3,401,541 MWh – or 40.4% more than in 2Q19.

 

In June 2020 the Cemig Group invoiced 8,590,483 clients – this was 1.5% more than its number of consumers in June 2019. Of this total number of consumers, 8,590,104 are final consumers, and/or represent Cemig’s own consumption; and 379 are other agents in the Brazilian electricity sector.

This chart shows the percentage of the Cemig Group’s sales to final consumers:

The electricity market of Cemig D

 

Electricity billed to captive clients and electricity transported for Free Clients and distributors with access to Cemig D’s networks in 2Q20 totaled 10,526,441 MWh, or 6.0% less than in 2Q19. This result is a composition of: (i) lower use of the network by Free Clients – a YoY decrease of 3.5%; and (ii) consumption by the captive market 8.0% lower YoY.

Residential

 

Residential consumption, which was 25.2% of the energy distributed by Cemig D in 2Q20, was 4.3% higher than in 2Q19. This increase reflects a total of 122,382 new consumer units being added to the network since the end of June 2019, and also average monthly consumption per consumer approximately 2.5% higher than in 2Q19.

 

Industrial

 

Consumption by the industrial consumer category was 45.4% of the total volume of electricity distributed by Cemig D, and totaled 4,782,233 MWh in 2Q20, or 6.5% less than in 2Q19. Consumption suffered a strong impact from the pandemic: the heaviest reductions were in the automotive, textiles and steel sectors.

Energy consumed by captive clients totaled 406,876 MWh in 2Q20, 34.5% less than in 2Q19. The volume of energy transported for industrial Free Clients was 41.6% of the total of energy distributed, and was 4,375,358 MWh in 2Q20, 2.6% less than in 2Q19.

 

48 

Commercial and Services

Distribution to this category of client was also strongly impacted by the pandemic, and by the restrictions on opening of stores, etc. – it was 21.4% less than in 2Q19. Volume was down 23.4% YoY in the captive market, and down 13.5% YoY in the Free Market. The total energy used by captive clients, plus energy transported for Free Clients, in the category was 12.1% of the total of energy distributed by Cemig D in 2Q20.

 

Rural

The rural consumer category suffered less from the Covid pandemic than other consumer categories. Its total consumption was 1.8% less in 2Q20 than 2Q19, even with a reduction of 13,023 consumer units in the category, due to re-registry of consumers to comply with Aneel Resolution 800.

 

Number of clients

A total of 8,589,721 consumers were billed in June 2020, or 123,507 more than in June 2019. Of this total, 1,584 were Free Consumers using the distribution network of Cemig D.

The electricity market of Cemig GT

 

Cemig GT billed a total of 7,233,217 MWh in 2Q20, 5.4% more than in 2Q19. Consumption by industrial clients was 627,536 MWh lower than in 2Q19, while commercial consumption was 1.23% higher – reflecting an increase of approximately 29% in the number of clients.

Sales 51.7% higher in the Free Market mainly reflected the higher volume of sales in the spot market to traders especially in April, and less allocation of energy for settlement on the CCEE.

SUPPLY QUALITY INDICATORS – DECi and FECi

 

 

Cemig is continuously taking action to improve operational management, organization of the logistics of its emergency services, and its permanent routine of preventive inspection and maintenance of substations, distribution lines and networks. It also invests in training of its staff for improved qualifications, state-of-the-art technologies, and standardization of work processes, aiming to maintain the quality of electricity supply, and as a result maintain satisfaction of clients and consumers.

 

The charts below show Cemig’s indicators for duration and frequency of outages – DECi (Average Outage Duration per Consumer, in hours), and FECi (Average Outage Frequency per Consumer, in number of outages), since January 2016. These quality indicators are linked to the current concession contract of Cemig D (distribution), signed in 2015.

Note: Figures for 2016 and 2017 are according to recalculation presented by the Company to Aneel.

Final consumers

Revenue from energy sold to final consumers totaled R$ 5,332,353 in 2Q20, or 4.23% less than in 2Q19 (R$ 5,567,717) – reflecting consumption of electricity 10.40% lower YoY due to the pandemic, partly offset by the effect of Cemig D’s annual tariff increase in force from May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020), which had an average impact on consumers’ tariffs of 8.73%.

Revenue from Use of Distribution Systems (the TUSD charge)

In 2Q20 this revenue was R$ 674,737, or 6.14% more than in 2Q19 (R$ 635,675). This difference arises mainly from the Company’s annual tariff adjustment, in effect from May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020), which had an average impact of approximately 15.47% for Free Clients; partially offset by volume of energy transported in 3.49% lower in 2Q20 than in 2Q19.

CVA and Other financial components in tariff adjustments

 

In its financial statements Cemig recognizes the difference between actual non-controllable costs (in which the CDE, and electricity bought for resale, are significant components) and the costs that were used as the basis for decision on the rates charged to consumers. In 2Q20 this item comprised a reduction of revenue by R$ 136,254, compared with an addition to revenue of R$ 40,109 in 2Q19. This variation mainly reflects: (1) higher costs of energy from Itaipu, due to the rise in the dollar exchange rate; and (2) the effects of overcontracting resulting from lower consumption of electricity, which generated an increase in the net financial asset to be passed through to the Company by the next tariff adjustment. These effects were partially offset by the passthrough of surplus amounts under the Energy Reserve Account (CONER), established by Aneel Dispatch 986/2020. The Company’s CVA balance receivable is R$ 926,183.

Transmission concession revenue

 

This revenue in 2Q20 was R$ 299,832, or 138.79% more than in 2Q19 (R$ 125,564). The higher figure is mainly due to the remeasurement of the Remuneration Base in the Periodic Tariff Review of Permitted Annual Revenue (RAP), ratified by Aneel on June 30, 2020, resulting in an adjustment of R$ 198,714. Additionally, these revenues were impacted by the increase in annual RAP, in July 2019 – this includes the effects of inflation and also new revenues resulting from investments authorized. The percentages and indices applied are different for different concessions: the IPCA inflation index is applied to the contract of Cemig GT, and the IGP–M index to the contract of Cemig Itajubá. They also include an adjustment to expectation of cash flow from financial assets, due to the change in the fair value of the Regulatory Remuneration Base of Assets (BRR).

 

Transmission reimbursement revenue

 

The Company records the updating of the balance receivable for the indemnity (reimbursement of asset value) based on the IPCA inflation index, and the average Regulatory cost of capital, as specified in the regulation for the sector.

 

The transmission indemnity revenue in 2Q20 was 348.33% higher than in 2Q19 – at R$ 259,680 compared to R$ 57,921 in 2Q19. This higher figure mainly reflects the upward adjustment to the economic portion of the indemnity base, as a result of the Periodic Review of RAP, which was recalculated in accordance with the applicable regulatory rules, resulting in an increase of R$ 231,126 in the Company’s profit at June 30, 2020.

 

Additionally, these revenues were influenced by the difference in the IPCA inflation index between the two periods. At the beginning of the tariff cycle, which takes place in July of each year, the amounts received for the adjustment set for the cycle, corresponding to the amortization of the debtor balance up to the end of the period, are excluded from the remuneration base for updating, reducing the remuneration. The indemnity (reimbursement) is being received through the RAP (Permitted Annual Revenue) since 2017, over a period of 8 years, for the financial portion, and for the remaining period of the useful life of the assets, for the economic portion.

 

Revenue from transactions on the Wholesale Trading Exchange (CCEE)

Revenue from transactions in electricity on the CCEE in 2Q20 was R$ 7,074, compared to R$ 144,821 in 2Q19 – a reduction of 95.1% year-on-year. This reduction is due to the lower availability of electricity for settlement on the CCEE; higher allocation of

54 

electricity to ‘bilateral’ sales on the spot market in 2Q20, and the lower value of the spot price than in the previous year.

Revenue from supply of gas

 

The Company reports revenue from gas 24.62% lower YoY in 2Q20, at R$ 403,227, compared to R$ 534,995 in 2Q19. This difference basically reflects volume of gas sold 17.55% lower, at 183,138m3 in 2Q20, compared to 222,106m3 in 2Q19, led by the industrial consumer category, which consumed 21.75% less volume year-on-year.

Taxes and charges reported as Deductions from revenue

 

The total of these taxes and charges reported as deductions from revenue in 2Q20 was R$ 2,687,389, or 9.10% less than in 2Q19 (R$ 2,956,432).

The Energy Development Account – CDE

The amounts of payments to the Energy Development Account (CDE) are decided by an Aneel Resolution. The purpose of the CDE is to cover costs of concession indemnities (reimbursements of costs of assets), tariff subsidies, the subsidy for balanced tariff reduction, the low-income-consumer subsidy, the coal consumption subsidy, and the Fuels Consumption Account (CCC). The charges for contribution to the CDE were R$ 608,155 in 2Q20, compared to R$ 679,017 in 2Q19, or 10.44% lower, mainly due to the termination of the Regulated Market Account (‘the ACR Account’), in August 2019.

This is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for setting of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

Consumer charges – the ‘Flag’ Tariff system

 

The ‘Flag’ Tariff bands are activated as a result of low levels of water in the system’s reservoirs – tariffs are temporarily increased due to scarcity of rain.

Charges to the consumer arising from the ‘Flag Tariff’ system in 2Q20 were 99.16% lower year-on-year – at R$ 73 in 2Q20, vs. R$ 8,712 in 2Q19. This reflects the flag being ‘green’ during the whole of 2Q20. For comparison, in 2Q19 the yellow flag was activated in May (with effect on the billing for June 2019).

Operating costs and expenses

 

Operational costs and expenses in 2Q20 were R$ 4,928,788, or 10.22% less than in 2Q19 (R$ 5,489,685).

The following paragraphs comment on the main variations in expenses:

Personnel

 

The expense on personnel in 2Q20 was R$ 339,183, or 8.70% more than in 2Q19 (R$ 312,031). The difference mainly reflects recognition in 2Q20 of R$ 58,850, the cost of voluntary severance programs; and also the effect of the salary increase of 2.55% agreed in November 2019 under the Collective Work Agreement. Excluding the effects of the voluntary severance program, spending on personnel would have been 10.16% lower than in 2Q19.

GT 11,348 61
D 45,584 329

Number of employees – by company

 

Employees’ and managers’ profit shares

 

The expense on employees’ and managers’ profit shares in 2Q20 was R$ 7,440, compared to R$ 108,478 in 2Q19, reflecting the lower profit in the period and the change in the criteria for shared profit sharing.

 

Electricity purchased for resale

 

The expense on electricity bought for resale in 2Q20 was R$ 2,755,238, or 9.07% more than in 2Q19 (R$ 2,526,019). This arises mainly from the following factors:

§ Expenses on supply from Itaipu 45.31% higher, at R$ 524,601 in 2Q20, than in 2Q19 (R$ 361,021). The difference mainly reflects the higher average US dollar exchange rate – R$ 5.40 in 2Q20, compared to R$ 3.92 in 2Q19; and the higher price of energy in US dollars, at R$ 28.41/kW for the whole of 2020, compared with US$ 27.71/kW for 2019.
§ Expenses on supply acquired at auction were 9.31% higher YoY in 2Q20, at R$ 748,514, compared to R$ 684,774 in 2Q19. This increase reflects: (i) volume of energy acquired approximately 10% higher year-on-year; and (ii) the upward adjustment in power purchasing agreements on the regulated market (CCEARs) taking place at the moment of Cemig D’s tariff adjustment.
§ Higher expenses on distributed generation: R$ 154,315 in 2Q20, compared to R$ 44,892 in 2Q19. This higher figure reflects the increase in the number of

58 

generating facilities installed, and the higher quantity of energy injected into the network (232,076 MWh in 2Q20, compare to 95,965 MWh in 2Q19).

For Cemig D, purchased energy is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

Gas bought for resale

 

The expense on acquisition of gas was 29.92% lower in 2Q20, at R$ 231,378, compared to R$ 330,180 in 2Q19. This basically reflects volume of gas purchased 14.61% lower, at 185,852m3 in 2Q20, compared to 217,646m3 in 2Q19.

 

Post-retirement obligations

 

The impact on operational profit of the Company’s post-retirement obligation was an expense of R$ 118,322 in 2Q20, compared to an expense of R$ 97,790 in 2Q19. This is mainly the result of reduction in the discount rate used in the actuarial calculation – which increased the amount of the actuarial liabilities, and consequently the scale of the expense reported.

 

Charges for use of the transmission network

Charges for use of the national grid in 2Q20 were R$ 257,441, or 29.92% less than in 2Q19 (R$ 367,375).

This is a non-manageable cost in the distribution activity: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

 

Operating provisions

 

Operational provisions in 2Q20 totaled R$ 197,613, or 77.27% less than in 2Q19 (R$ 869,373). This arises mainly from the following factors:

§ Recognition in 2Q19 of a higher provision for impairment of Accounts receivable from Renova: R$ 688,031, compared to R$ 37,361 in 2Q20.
§ Losses expected on doubtful receivables from clients 142.22% higher, at R$ 115,360 in 2Q20, compared to R$ 47,627 in 2Q19. This difference mainly reflects higher default by clients in the public authorities category, and, especially, worsening of performance in the residential and industrial consumer categories, due to the pandemic.

60 

§ Lower provisions made for employment-law contingencies: R$ 23,375 in 2Q20, compared to R$ 105,122 in 2Q19. This mainly reflects recognition, in 2Q19, of a change in the indexor used for monetary updating of employment-law actions, from the TR reference rate to the IPCA-E inflation rate, for claims between March 25, 2015 and November 10, 2017 – which are at an advanced phase of execution. The chances of loss have been assessed as ‘probable’.

 

Share of profit (loss) in associates and joint ventures

 

The Company reported a gain of R$ 82,534 as share of net profit in associates and joint ventures, which was 127.5% more than in 2Q19. This mainly reflects improvement in the result of Taesa and a less negative result from the stake in Santo Antôniot that was negative R$ 18,528 in 2Q20 and negative R$ 58,154 in 2Q19.

Note: The result of Companhia de Transmissão Centroeste de Minas is no longer included in this account (equity income), since the conclusion of purchase by the Company of the remaining stake in Centroeste in January 2020.

Financial revenue and expenses

 

For 2Q20, Cemig reports net financial expenses of R$ 35,317, which compares to net financial revenue in 2Q19 of R$ 1,908,587. This reflects two main factors:

 

§ Appreciation of the dollar in 2Q20 by 5.33%, compared to a depreciation of 1.66% in 2Q19, resulting in FX variation expenses on the principal debt in Eurobonds of R$ 415,950 in 2020, compared to revenues in 2Q19, of R$ 96,750.
§ In 2Q20 the fair value of the hedge instrument increased by R$ 486,720, offsetting the effect of FX variation on the principal of the debt in Eurobonds – with a combined positive result of R$ 70,770. In 2Q19 the variation in the fair value of the hedge instrument was R$ 461,083 which added to the positive effect of FX variation, of R$ 96,750, generated a combined gain of R$ 557,833. The increase in the fair value of the hedge instrument in 2Q20 arises, especially, from lowering of the DI curve (short leg), which reduced the expectation of the obligation to pay interest; and appreciation of dollar futures, which resulted in an increase in the value of the call spread options.
Period 2Q20 2Q19
Effect on the hedge 486,720 461,083

c)    COVID-19

General Context

 

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized Covid-19 as a pandemic, reinforcing the restrictive measures recommendations to prevent the virus dissemination worldwide. These measures are based, mainly, on social distancing, which have been causing major negative impact on entities, affecting their production process, interrupting their supply chains, causing workforce shortages and closing of stores and facilities. The economies around the world are developing measures to handle the economic crisis, especially by their central banks and fiscal authorities, but the economic downturn and its effects are not yet accurately measurable.

 

Government measures aimed at Brazilian energy sector

 

Several measures were implemented by the Brazilian government, specifically aimed at energy sector, which include:

 

  § The provisional normative act. 950/2020 issued in April 8, 2020, which provides for 100% discount in the calculation of social energy tariff (‘Tarifa Social de Energia Elétrica’), from April 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020, applicable to customers included in low-income residential subclass, with energy consumption less than or equal to 220 kWh/month. The act also authorizes the Federal Government to allocate resources to Energy Development Account (CDE), limited to R$900 million, to cover the tariff discounts established.
  § Expansion on the limit of total amount of energy that can be declared by energy distributors in the process of the mechanism for the sale of surplus (‘Mecanismo de Venda de Excedentes’ - MVE), during 2020, from 15% to 30%, for the purpose of facilitating contractual reductions.

  § Authorization to create the “Covid-account”, under the Decree 10,350/2020, issued on May 18, 2020, as detailed in the following topic.

“Covid-account” (‘Conta-covid’)

 

 

On May 18, 2020, in order to cope with the public calamity caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Decree n. 10,350/20 authorized the creation of “Covid account, to support the energy distribution sector, which is the basis of the energy sector financial flow, aimed to either cover the distribution agents revenue/cash flow deficit or to anticipate their revenues, related to (i) over-contracted purchases due to market retraction, (ii) “CVA” sector assets (iii) maintaining the neutrality of regulatory charges, (iv) compensation for the delay in applying tariff adjustments until June 30, 2020 and (v) anticipation of “parcel B” revenues as determined by Aneel regulation.

 

On June 23, 2020, the regulator issued the Normative Resolution n. 885/2020, which set out the criteria and procedures to manage the “Covid-account”, as well as regulated the use of the CDE regulatory charge. Under this Resolution, the amount transferred to each distribution agent will be converted as a tariff negative financial component until the tariff processes of 2020, updated by Selic rate, ensuring the neutrality.

 

Cemig D joined the financial compensation mechanism under the Covid-account (‘Conta-Covid’), in order to boost its cash flow enabling it to meet its financial obligations, in spite of the collection reduction resulting of the economic crises. On July 9, 2020, the regulator informed the total amount from the “Covid-account” to be received by Cemig D, in installments, which is $1,404,175. The first installment was received on July 31, 2020 and the remaining, in the amount of R$217,785, will be received in 6 installments, from August of 2020 to January, 2021.

 

There are some rules applied to distribution agents entitled to the Covid-account resources, such as (i) relinquishing any intention to reduce or end the purchase of energy from generators because of a reduction in the sales caused by the pandemic crises, until December 2020; (ii) in the event of default on payments, limiting their dividend payments to the legal minimum of 25% of net income and (iii) renounce the right to complain in court or arbitral tribunals on the conditions, procedures or obligations determined in legal and regulatory provisions on Covid-account. Notwithstanding, the right to request an extraordinary tariff review is fully preserved.

 

Due to the statements of renunciations established in the Acceptance Document under the Normative Resolution 885/2020, on July 3, 2020 Cemig D’s Shareholders Extraordinary General Meeting approved alteration to its by-laws, to include §4 on Clause 33 limiting the distribution of mandatory dividend or interest on equity to the legal minimum, exceptionally for the cases and conditions that the regulator may demand, by rule or by contract, in order to mitigate a situation of financial imbalance caused by any fact or event attributable to a third party, or overriding government rulings, or expressly recognized force majeure.

Impact of Covid-19 on Financial Statements

 

Considering the significant restrictions on business and social interaction during the Covid-19 pandemic in combination with the latest movements in exchange and interest rates, the Company estimates that the resulting economic contraction might have a negative effect on its liquidity, but the overall impact of the Covid-19 outbreak on its financial position and performance is still difficult to be accurately measured at this point.  

 

In such a scenario, the significant intervention in the local market policies and the initiatives to reduce the transmission of Covid-19 are likely to cause a reduction in energy consumption and consequently in revenue from sale of energy, as well as an increase in expected credit losses.

 

As of June 30, 2020, from the observation of the pandemic’s immediate economic effects, the Company assessed the assumptions used for calculating fair value and recoverable amount of certain financial and non-financial assets, as follows:

 

  § The subsidiary Cemig GT assessed whether the greater pressure on the exchange rate, combined with a lack of financial market liquidity, will have a negative impact on derivative financial instruments hired to protect its operations against the risks arising from foreign exchange rate changes. At this point, given the current market conditions, the change in derivative instrument’s fair value, based on the forecasts of future interest and exchanges rates, cannot offset the Company’s total exposure to foreign exchange rate variability, resulting in a net loss of R$367 million in the first semester of 2020. The long-term projections carried out for the foreign exchange rate are lower than the current dollar quotation, which may represent a decrease in Company’s foreign exchange variation expense, if the projected scenario occurs.

 

  § As a result of Covid-19 situation, the market conditions have deteriorated, and, under the current circumstances, the fair value of the Company’s interest in Light has decreased significantly. The estimated negative impact arising from the remeasurement of the asset at fair value less cost to sell is R$134 million on June 30, 2020, as presented in Note 32.

 

  § The Company is assessing the circumstances arising from Covid-19 pandemic and associated measures aimed at reducing the impact of the economic contraction on customer delinquency when measuring expected credit losses. The Company has intensified measures to mitigate the risks of delinquency, such as a campaign of negotiation with clients in arrears whose energy supply the Company is currently temporarily prohibited from suspending as well as intensifying the usual collection measures.

  § The Company estimates that the assumptions applied to determine the recoverable amount of the relevant investments in subsidiaries, joint-controlled entities and associates were not influenced significantly by the Covid-19 situation, since these investees’ cash flows are mainly related to long-term rights to commercial operation of the regulated activity. Therefore, except for the effects related to the negative impact arising from the remeasurement of Company’s interest in Light, classified as asset held for sale, no additional impairment losses was recognize to its investments in subsidiaries, joint-controlled entities and associates due to the economic crisis.

 

  § The Company has also made an assessment attempting to identify the behavior of the interest rates and discount rates that are the basis for the calculation of post-employment obligations, and believes that at this moment, due to the high volatility of the market, it is not possible to conclude whether the present rates reflect an alteration in the macroeconomic fundamentals that would indicate a need for recalculation of the actuarial liabilities.

 

  § Despite the uncertainties related to the crisis unfolding and its potential long-term effects, the Company does not expect that the negative impact on its projections of likely future taxable profits might compromise the recoverability of its deferred tax assets.

 

The impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic published in this interim financial information are based on the Company’s best estimates. The Company estimates that the effects of the pandemic may temporarily affect its liquidity in 2020, however, significant long-term effects are not expected. Based on the market projections and on the crisis measurable effects, the Company has observed the following effects in 2020:

 

  § The Company expects that the return of economic activities after the peak of the coronavirus outbreak, as well as the authorization of the energy supply suspension, except for customers classified as low income residential subclass, as of August, 2020, provided for Normative Resolution n. 891/2020, will reestablish the collection behavior, which reduced in April 2020. In addition, the negotiations to enable the recovery of past due receivables and the possible regulator’s measures to reestablish economic balance, which are currently being discussed in the sector, may mitigate the negative effects of the economic crisis on collection.

 

  § The energy demand (load) measured by the Brazilian Interconnected Power Grid (SIN) has decreased in March and April 2020. Measured up to the initial days of May 2020 at June 30, 2020, the reduction in the market of Cemig D’s captive customers was approximately 6.1%. Further, the Company expects that the market will recover as the requirements for social distancing are made more flexible.

  a) Pis/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS

 

On May 8, 2019 the Regional Federal Appeal Court of the First Region gave final judgment – against which there is no appeal – on the Ordinary Action, deciding in favor of Cemig, Cemig D and Cemig GT, and recognizing their right to exclude the ICMS amounts from the calculation basis of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes, backdated as from five years prior to the action initial filing– that is, from July 2003.

 

Thus, the PIS/Pasep and Cofins credits recorded correspondthe amount of these taxes over ICMS paid in the period of July 2003 to May 2019.

 

Final court judgment has also been given, against which there is no further appeal, in favor of the similar actions filed by Cemig’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Sá Carvalho, Cemig Geração Distribuída (former UTE Ipatinga S.A.), Cemig Geração Poço Fundo S.A. (previously denominated UTE Barreiro S.A.) and Horizontes Energia S.A..

 

The Company has two ways to recover the tax credit: (i) offsetting of the amount receivable against amounts payable of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes, monthly, within the five-year period specified by the relevant law of limitation; or (ii) receipt of specific credit instruments ‘precatórios’ from the federal government.

 

In Cemig D and Cemig GT, the credits will be offset, to accelerate recovery. For the Company itself, priority will be given to receipt of the credits through precatório letters of credit, since the Company does not make enough monthly payments of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes to enable offsetting.

 

On May 12, 2020, the Brazilian tax authority (Receita Federal) granted the Company’s request for ratification of the credits of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes arising from the legal action on which final judgment, subject to no further appeal, was given in favor of Cemig D and Cemig GT in 2019.

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

The Company is recovering Cemig GT and Cemig D tax credits by offsetting the amount receivable against amounts of federal taxes payable on a monthly basis, starting in May, 2020, within the five-year period specified by the relevant law of limitation.

In this context, the Company transferred to current assets the credits for which the expectation of offsetting does not exceed a period of 12 months: R$ 357,334 for the PIS/Pasep taxes, and R$ 1,645,903 for the Cofins tax.

 

Based on the opinion of its legal advisers, the Company believes that a portion of the credits to be received by Cemig D should be reimbursed to its customers, considering a maximum period for calculation of the reimbursement of 10 years. Thus, Cemig D has constituted a liability corresponding to the total amount of the tax credits comprising the period of the last 10 years, from June 2009 to May 2019, net of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes over monetary updating, presented in Note 20. Cemig D awaits the regulator’a conclusion about the mechanisms and criteria for the reimbursement to its customers.

 

The accounting effects relating to the recognition of the PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits, including their monetary updating by the Selic rate, were recognized in the income statement in 2019, at net amount, updated to December 31, 2019, of R$1,965,116. Of this amount, R$1,427,786 and R$1,549,663 were recognized as operational revenue and financial revenue (net of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes), respectively. In addition, the amount of R$1,012,333 was recorded as IRPJ and CSLL.

 

These credits and the reimbursement to customers are updated by the Selic rate until offsetting of the amount receivable against amounts payable or until reimbursement to customers. On June 30, 2020, the net effect in the consolidated and individual finance income is R$27,092 and R$3,489, respectively, more details see note 28.

 

  b) Other recoverable taxes

 

The ICMS (VAT) credits that are reported in non-current assets arise mainly from acquisitions of property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets, and can be offset against taxes payable in the next 48 months. The transfer to non-current is made in accordance with management's best estimate of the amounts which will likely be realized after December 2020.

 

Credits of PIS/Pasep and Cofins generated by the acquisition of machinery and equipment can be offset immediately.

 

 

  9. INCOME AND SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION TAXES

 

a)   Income tax and social contribution tax recoverable

The balances of income tax and social contribution tax refer to tax credits in the corporate income tax returns of previous years and to advance payments which will be offset against federal taxes eventually payable.

  10. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FROM THE STATE OF MINAS GERAIS

 

The Company has accounts receivable from the State of Minas Gerais, arising from return of an administrative deposit made for a dispute on the rate of inflation and other adjustment to be applied to an advance for future capital increase (‘AFAC’), made in prior years, which was the subject of a debt recognition agreement. The agreement provided for payment by the Minas Gerais State in 12 consecutive monthly installments, each updated by the IGP–M index up to the date of actual payment, the first to become due on November 10, 2017. The agreement states that, in the event of arrears or default by the State in payment of the agreed consecutive monthly installments, Cemig is authorized to retain dividends or Interest on Equity distributable to the State in proportion to the State’s equity interest, for as long as the arrears and/or default continues.

 

Considering the provision referred to in the previous paragraph, the Company withheld an amount of R$147,798 in 2019, corresponding to the dividends that would have been payable to Minas Gerais State on that year. The balance receivable on June 30, 2020, R$120,258 (R$115,202 on December, 31, 2019), was classified as Non-current asset, as a result of the delays in installments past due since January 2018.

 

Due to the garantees mentioned above, which the Company intends to remain executing in the event of non-receipt of the amount agreed in the debt recognition agreement, there is no expectation of losses in the realization of these receivables.

  13.1 Distribution - Financial assets

The energy and gas distribution concession contracts are within the scope of IFRIC 12 / ICPC 01. The financial assets under these contracts refer to the investments made in infrastructure that will paid by grantor at the end of the concession period and they are measured at fair value through profit or loss, in accordance with regulation of the energy segment and concession contracts executed by Cemig and its subsidiaries and the granting authorities.

 

  13.2 Transmission – Indemnifiable receivable

 

On April 20, 2016, the Mining and Energy Ministry (MME) issued its Ministerial Order 120, which set the amounts ratified by Aneel through its Dispatches, relating to the facilities of the National Grid not yet amortized nor depreciated nor yet reimbursed by the concession-granting power, related to the concession contracts renewed under Law 12,783/2013. These became a component of the Regulatory Remuneration Base of the energy transmission concession holders, as from the 2017 tariff-setting process. These regulations determined the amounts receivable as Permitted Annual Revenue (Receita Anual Permitida - RAP) of the amounts relating to the National Grid.

Based on the regulations of Aneel and the Mining and Energy Ministry, in particular MME Ministerial Order 120/2016 and Aneel Resolution 762/2017, the portion of the Company’s receivable rights for which only the passage of time is required before their payment is governed by IFRS 09 / CPC 48 (financial asset).

 

Thus, the portion not yet paid, since the extension of the concessions, for the period January 1, 2013 to June 30, 2017, to be received over a period of eight years, considered as a Financial Component, is classified as a Financial asset, since it no longer involves the construction of infrastructure assets, and represents exclusively the portions not paid in the period 2013 to 2017, updated by the regulatory cost of capital of the transmission sector.

 

The classification of this portion as a financial asset is based on the non-existence of assets linked to the financial component of the National Grid, for which a performance obligation is required for its receipt. In this context, the Company has the unconditional right to the receivable, specified in Article 15 of Law 12,783/2013 and also in the regulations of Aneel, requiring, basically, only the passage of time for receipt of the amounts payable. The financial asset recognized is classified as measured at amortized cost, in the terms of IFRS 09 / CPC 48, since its remuneration is based on the regulatory cost of capital, previously set by Aneel through its Resolution 762/2017 and is maintained in a business model whose objective is the receipt of contractual cash flows, constituting payment of principal and interest on the principal yet unpaid.

 

In relation to the facilities of the National Grid linked to the Company’s concession contract, Aneel ratified, through its Dispatch 2,181, on august, 16, 2016, homologated the amount of R$892,050, in December, 2012, for the portion of the residual value of assets to be paid to the Company. This amount was recorded as a financial asset, with specific maturity and interest rate, in accordance with its characteristics.

 

The amount of the indemnity receivable, updated to June 30, 2020, of R$1,265,445 (R$1,280,652 on December 31, 2019) is classified as a financial asset, at amortized cost, in accordance with IFRS 9, as follows:

 

Portion of remuneration and depreciation not paid since the extensions of concessions

 

An amount of R$785,488 (R$832,915 on December 31, 2019), corresponding to remuneration and depreciation not paid since the extension of the concessions, until the tariff adjustment of 2017, which will be inflation adjusted using the IPCA (Expanded National Customer Price) index and remunerated at the weighted average cost of capital of the transmission segment as defined by the regulator for the periodic tariff review, to be paid over a period of eight years through the RAP, since July of 2017.

On June 30, 2020 Aneel approved the periodic reset of Annual Revenue Permitted (ARAP) by Ratification Resolution n. 2,712/2020, resulting in an adjustment of R$ 10,183 in the financial component of RAP, mainly arising from the retrospective alteration as from July 1, 2018, of the transmission sector Weighted Average Cost of Capital. For more information on the RAP periodic reset , please see Note 14 to the financial statements.

 

Residual Value of transmission assets – the regulatory cost of capital updating

 

On April 10, 2017, a preliminary injunction was granted to the Brazilian Large Free Customers’ Association (Associação Brasileira de Grandes Consumidores Livres), the Brazilian Auto Glass Industry Technical Association (Associação Técnica Brasileira das Indústrias Automáticas de Vidro) and the Brazilian Ferro-alloys and Silicon Metal Producers’ Association (Associação Brasileira dos Produtores de Ferroligas e de Silicio Metálico) in their legal action against the regulator and the Federal Government requesting suspension of the effects on their tariffs of remuneration at cost of equity of portions of “National Grid” assets not yet paid from 2013 to 2017 owned to the agents that accepted the terms of Law 12,783/13.


The preliminary injunction was partial, with effects related to suspension of the inclusion in the customer tariffs paid by these associations of the portion of the indemnity corresponding to the remuneration at cost of equity included since the date of extension of the concessions – amounting to R$470,797 at June 30, 2020 (R$447,737 at December 31, 2019), adjusted by the IPCA index and by the regulatory weighted average cost of capital (regulatory wacc).

 

In June 2020, due to revocation of the majority of the injunctions, and in compliance with the Execution Opinions issued by the Federal Public Attorneys’ Office to Aneel, the effects caused by the reversal of these injunctions were calculated, for inclusion of the cost of equity in the transmission revenue starting with the 2020-21 cycle, considering all retrospective effects, including those arising from the assumptions adopted in the 2018 RAP periodic reset. At this moment Aneel provisionally ratified only the inclusion of the cost of equity updated by IPCA index of the period between the 2017-18 and 2019-20 tariff cycles, considering the need for deeper examination of the legal conditions for analysis of the Company’s appeal, which require the inclusion of the wacc remuneration for the periods in which it was suspended, in the average amount of R$86,042.

 

Cemig GT believes that the treatment given to this component, which includes updating by the IPCA inflation index, plus the regulatory weighted average cost of capital, of the period from June 2017 to June 2020, appropriately reflects the regulations issued by the grantor authority. Company has no expectation of loss in relation to realization of these amounts.

 

The difference due the incorporation of the cost of equity remuneration, arising from the amounts actually paid and the amounts due between the 2017-18 and 2019-20 cycles, will be incorporated into the RAP through Adjustment Parcels, over three cycles. The total value for this parameter to be received in the 2020-21 cycle, which includes accrual in the current cycle, in the amount of R$ 65,945, totals approximately R$131,075.

  13.3 Generation – Indemnity receivable

 

As from August 2013, with the extinction of the concession for various plants operated by Cemig GT under Concession Contract 007/1997, the subsidiary has a right to receive an amount corresponding to the residual value of the infrastructure assets, as specified in the concession contract. These balances are recognized in financial assets, at fair value through profit or loss, and totaled R$816,202 on June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

As specified by the regulator (Aneel) in Normative Resolution 615/2014, the valuation reports that support the amounts in relation to the residual value of the plants, previously operated by Cemig GT, that were included in Lot D and for the Volta Grande plant have been submitted to the regulator. The Company does not expect any losses in the realization of these amounts.

 

On June, 30 2020, investments made after the Jaguara, São Simão and Miranda plants came into operation, in the amounts of R$174,203, R$2,711 and R$22,546, respectively, are recorded as concession financial assets, and the determination of the final amounts to be paid to the Company is in a process of discussion with Aneel (the regulator). Management of the subsidiary Cemig GT does not expect losses in realization of these amounts.

 

In 2019, Plubic Hearing 003/2019 was opened to obtain inputs on improvement of the regulation of criteria and procedures for calculation of investments in revertible assets, not yet amortized or not depreciated, of generation concessions (whether extended or not), under Law 12,783/2013. Technical Note 096/2019 was published on September 30, 2019. However the Normative Resolution has not yet been voted on by the Council of Aneel.

  13.4 Concession grant fee – Generation concessions

 

The concession grant fee paid for a 30-year concession contracts Nº. 08 to 16/2016, related to 18 hydroelectric plants of Auction 12/2015, won by Cemig GT, was an amount of R$2,216,353. The amount of the concession fee was recognized as a financial asset measured at amortized cost, as Cemig GT has an unconditional right to receive the amount paid, updated by the IPCA Index and remuneratory interest (the total amount of which is equal to the internal rate of return on the project), during the period of the concession.

 

The changes in concession financial assets are as follows:

Sector assets and liabilities

 

  13.5 Account for compensation of variation of parcel A items (CVA) and Other financial components

 

The Amendment that extended concession period of Cemig D guarantees that, in the event of termination of the concession contract, for any reason, the remaining balances (assets and liabilities) of any shortfall in payment or reimbursement through the tariff must also be paid by the grantor. The balances on (i) the CVA (Compensation for Variation of Parcel A items) Account, (ii) the account for Neutrality of Sector Charges, and (iii) Other financial components in the tariff calculation, refer to the positive and negative differences between the estimate of the Company’s non-manageable costs and the payments actually made. The variations are subject to monetary adjustment using the Selic rate and considered in the subsequent tariff adjustments.

  (1) In 2017 and 2018 Cemig D over contracted and the gain arising from the sale of the excess of energy in the spot market was provisionally passed through to customers by Aneel in the tariff adjustments of 2018 and 2019, including the portion in excess of the limit of 105% of the regulatory load – thus reducing the tariff that was determined. To establish whether this is a voluntary over contracting, the Company considers that the portion above the regulatory limit will be recovered in the subsequent tariff adjustment, when Aneel publishes the Dispatch that makes the numbers in question official. The Company has no expectation of loss in relation to realization of these amounts. The Company recognizes this receivable asset, in the amount of R$220,657, as ‘Other financial components’, to be approved by Aneel in the next forthcoming tariff adjustments.

Payments from the Flag Tariff Centralizing Account

 

The ‘Flag Account’ (Conta Centralizadora de Recursos de Bandeiras Tarifárias – CCRBT or ‘Conta Bandeira’) manages the funds that are collected from captive customers of distribution concession and permission holders operating in the national grid, and are paid, on behalf of the CDE, directly to the Flag Account. The resulting funds are passed through by the Power Trading Chamber (CCEE) to distribution agents, based on the difference between the realized amounts of costs of thermal generation and the exposure to short term market prices, and the amount covered by the tariff in force.

 

From January to June 2020, funds passed through by the Flag Account totaled R$62,771 (R$83,115 from January to June 2019), and were recognized as a partial realization of CVA receivables constituted.

 

Cemig D tariff adjustment

 

On June 25, 2020, the regulator (Aneel) approved the Annual Adjustment for Cemig D, effective as of May 28, 2020, providing an average increase for customers of 4.27%, whereas 0.84% corresponded to Cemig D’s manageable costs (Portion B) and the remaining portion, of 3.43%, has zero economic effect, not affecting profitability, since it represents direct pass-through, within the tariff, relating to the following itens: (i) increase of 5.30% in non-manageable (‘Parcel A’) costs – mainly purchase of energy supply, regulatory charges and transmission charges; (ii) ) increase of 6.71% in the financial components of the current process, led by the CVA currently being processed, which had an effect of 5.47%; and (iii) 8.58% was withdrawn from the financial components of the prior process.

 

Although the adjustment is effective from May 28, 2020 to May 27 2021, its application was suspended until June 30, 2020, maintaining the previous tariffs during the suspension period. Additionally, the Cemig D’s right to receive R$ 63,147, for non-collection of additional tariff revenue in the period, was recognized. This amount was part of the total limit set for the Covid-account funding established for Cemig D under Normative Resolution 885/2020. For more information on the Covid-account, see Note 1(c) to this interim financial statements.

Administrative appeals were filed with Aneel, contesting the ratification of the annual tariff increase of 4.27% to Cemig D, and requesting its annulment, with the restitution to Cemig D’s customers of the amounts of the escrow deposits released as a result of the Supreme Court judgment, in the form that creates overall precedent, which determined the exclusion of ICMS tax amounts from the basis for calculation of PIS/ Pasep and Cofins taxes payable.. The current administrative appeals request a creation of a negative financial component in the calculation of Cemig D’s annual tariff adjustment.

 

Aneel has given Cemig D the right of reply, and, based on internal assessments and those of its legal advisers, as well as the exceptional economic scenario caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, Cemig D, on August 5, 2020, has submitted to Aneel a proposal for a the restitution to its customers of a total amount of R$ 714 million – corresponding to part of the escrow deposits released by the court due to Cemig’s success in the Claim.

 

Cemig’s decision represents an anticipation of the effects, and treatment in terms of regulations of the Supreme Court’s decision that determined the exclusion of ICMS tax amounts from the basis for calculation of PIS/ Pasep and Cofins taxes. These regulations will be applied equally to all energy distribution concessions through an Aneel normative ruling, which will be issued after conclusion of Public Consultation 005/2020 – during which there will be discussion on the merits, and in which Cemig will be able to take part in a wide-ranging discussion on the subject. The portion of the credits that Cemig D proposes to refund to its customers are recorded as a liability, as presented in note 20.

 

Cemig D’s proposal will also be subjected to ANEEL’s analysis and deliberation.

The transmission activity

 

Periodic Reset of Permitted Annual Revenue - RAP

 

On June 30, 2020, Aneel ratified the results of the Periodic Tariff Reset through Ratifying Resolution 2,712/2020, setting the revaluation of the Permitted Annual Revenue (RAP) to be applied from July 1, 2018. The result of the RAP Periodic Reset was a net increase of 9.13%, comprising: (i) –10.25%, arising from revaluation of the assets created by reinforcements and improvements (incremental basis); (ii) 0.51% for the assets reincorporated into the Remuneration Base; and (iii) 37.89% for the review of the financial component of RAP and change of the weighted average Regulatory Cost of Capital (WACC).

 

The assets posted in this line are:

 

Remaining National Grid balance to be received through RAP - The portion of the RAP relating to the facilities of the National Grid arising from the regulatory reintegration quota incorporated into the Remuneration Base, under Mining and Energy Ministry Order 120/2016 and Aneel Resolution 762/2017, is classified as a contractual asset, since satisfaction of the performance obligation linked to their construction occurs during their useful life (availability of the network).

 

The right to the consideration linked to these assets depends on the availability of the network, since they were reincorporated into the Remuneration Base by the renewal of the concession contract, under Law 12,783/2013, and will be received for the remaining period of their useful life, whilst the services of operation and maintenance are rendered.

 

Thus, the asset is recognized, under IFRS 15 / CPC 47, as a contract asset, representing the performance concluded prior to the right to receipt of the consideration, which will take place during the utilization of the infrastructure built, for the period of its useful life, in accordance with Aneel Resolution 762/2017, concomitantly with the provision of services of operation and maintenance, which are necessary for availability of the network.

 

As a result of the Tariff PeriodicReset, the economic portion of RAP was remeasured in accordance with the applicable regulatory rules, resulting in an addition of R$220,943 to the Cemig GT’s income for the period ended June 30, 2020.

 

The remaining balance of the indemnity for transmission, due to acceptance of the terms of Law 12,783/13, and the adjustments arising from periodic reset of RAP (RTP), of R$505,564 at June 30, 2020 (R$347,691 at December 31, 2019) was incorporated into the Assets Remuneration Base and is being recovered through the Annual Permitted Revenue (RAP).

 

Transmission – Assets remunerated by tariff - For new assets related to improvements and upgrades of facilities constructed by transmission concession holders, the regulator (ANEEL) calculates an additional portion of Permitted Annual Revenue (RAP) from the date that the new facilities enter commercial operation.

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

Under the Proret, the revenue established in the Resolutions is payable to the transmission concession holders as from the date of start of commercial operation of the facilities. In the periods between tariff reviews, the revenues associated with the improvements and upgrades of facilities are provisional. They are then finally determined in the review immediately subsequent to the start of commercial operation of the facilities; this review then has effect starting on the date when commercial operations begin. At June 30, 2020, the receivable amounts to R$1,125,003 (R$848,543 on December, 31, 2019), which includes the Centroeste contract asset, related to the Furnas – Pimenta transmission line, acquired in business combination detailed in Note 15(c).

 

The assets arising from reinforcements and improvements related to the period from January 2013 to January 2018 were remeasured using the Aneel Reference Price Bank, in accordance with the regulatory requirement due to the Periodic Reset of RAP ratified by Aneel on June 30, 2020. The remeasurement of this Remuneration Base resulted in an increase of R$ 198,714 in the Company’s income.

 

The construction of infrastructure grants to the operator a right to receive consideration due to performance obligations represented by the construction, which is not unconditional until the satisfaction of performance obligations related to the operation and maintenance of the transmission lines. The revenue and costs related to construction of these assets are recognized in the statement of income as expenditures incurred.

The Company’s investees that are not consolidated are jointly-controlled entities, with the exception of the interests in the Light, classified as assets held for sale, Madeira Energia (‘Santo Antônio’ power plant), UFV Janaúba Geração de Energia Elétrica Distribuída and Ativas Data Center.

 

On December 31, 2019, the investee Usina Hidrelétrica Itaocara had negative shareholders’ equity. Thus, after reducing the accounting value of its interest to zero, the Company recognized the loss to the extent that it assumed contractual obligations with the subsidiary and the other shareholders, which on June 30, 2020 is R$22,153 (R$21,810 on December 31, 2019).

 

For the second quarter of 2020, management considered that there was some indication, due to the economic shock of the Covid-19 pandemic (Note 1C), of potential decline in value of assets, as referred to in IAS 36 / CPC 01 – Impairments. Considering, however, the pandemic’s effects on the economic context, and the fact that the long-term expectation of realization of the assets underwent no change, management of the Company and its subsidiaries concluded that the reported assets net carrying amount is recoverable, and thus that there was no need to recognize any impairment loss in the Company nor its subsidiaries as a result of the current economic scenario.

 

Additionally, in relation to the above, the Company’s management has assessed the risk threatening all its investments ability to continue as a going concern, taking substantially into consideration: the economic-financial clauses of Cemig D; the guarantee of revenues of the transmission companies; the protection against force majeure reduction in regulated generation contracts; and all the legal measures that have been applied by the federal government and by Aneel – and has concluded that the Company and its subsidiaries’ ability to continue as going concern is secure.

 

  a) Right to exploitation of the regulated activity

 

In the process of allocate the purchase price for of the acquisition of the jointly-controlled subsidiaries and affiliates, a valuation was made for the intangible assets relating to the right to operate the infrastructure. This asset is presented together with the acquisition cost of the investments in the previous table. These assets will be amortized over the remaining period of the concessions on a straight-line basis.

 

The rights of authorization to generate wind energy granted to Parajuru and Volta do Rio, valued at R$56,965 (R$60,072 on December 31, 2019) and R$55,050 (R$66,606 on December 31, 2019), respectively, are included in the financial statements of the subsidiary Cemig GT and of the Company, respectively, and in accordance with Technical Interpretation ICPC 09, the investments and are classified in the consolidated balance sheet under Intangibles. These concession assets are amortized by the straight-line method, during the period of the concession. For further information see note 17.

Madeira Energia S.A. (“MESA”) and FIP Melbourne

 

MESA is the parent company of Santo Antônio Energia S.A (‘SAESA’), whose objects are operation and maintenance of the Santo Antônio Hydroelectric Plant and its transmission system, on the Madeira River, and all activities necessary for operation of the plant and its transmission system. Between the shareholders include Furnas, Odebrecht Energia, SAAG and the Company.

 

On June 30, 2020 the investee MESA reported a loss of R$548,082 (R$454,708 on June 30, 2019) and current liabilities in excess of current assets by R$187,926 (R$427,060 on December 31, 2019). Hydroelectric plants project finances structurally present negative net working capital in the first years of operation, because they are built using high levels of financial leverage. On the other hand, they have firm long-term contracts for energy supply as support and guarantee of payment of their debts. To balance the situation of negative working capital, in addition to its long-term sale contracts that ensure regularity in its operational cash flow, MESA benefits from its debt reprofiling, which adjusted its debt repayments flow to its cash generation capacity, so that the investee does not depend on additional investment from the shareholders.

 

Arbitration proceedings

 

In 2014, Cemig GT and SAAG Investimentos S.A. (SAAG), a vehicle through which Cemig GT holds an indirect equity interest in MESA, opened arbitration proceedings, in the Market Arbitration Chamber, challenging the following: (a) the adjustment for impairment carried out by the Executive Board of MESA, in the amount of R$678 million, relating to certain credits owed to Mesa by CCSA, based on absence of quantification of the amounts supposedly owed, and absence of prior approval by the Board of Directors, as required by the by laws and Shareholders’ Agreement of MESA; and also on the existence of credits owed to MESA by CCSA, for an amount greater than the claims; and (b) against the adjustment for impairment carried out by the Executive Board of MESA, in the amount of R$678,551, relating to certain credits owed to Mesa by CCSA, on the grounds that those credits are owed in their totality by express provision of contract.

 

The arbitration judgment recognized the right of Cemig GT and SAAG in full and ordered the annulment of the acts being impugned. As a consequence of this decision, MESA reversed the impairment, and posted a provision for receivables in the amount of R$ 678,551 in its financial statements as of December 31, 2017. On June 30, 2020, the investee confirmed its assets recoverability expectation and maintained the provision for receivables in the amount of R$678,551.

 

To resolve the question of the liability of the CCSA consortium to reimburse the costs of re-establishment of the collateral and use of the contractual limiting factor, the affiliated company opened arbitration proceedings with the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) against CCSA, which are in progress. This process is confidential under the Arbitration Regulations of the ICC.

Cemig GT and SAAG Investimentos S.A. applied to the judiciary for provisional remedy prior to the arbitration proceeding, to suspend the effects of the capital increase approved by an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Mesa held on August 28, 2018. This process is confidential under the Arbitration Regulations of the Market Arbitration Chamber.

 

Renova Energia S.A. – court-supervised reorganization (‘Renova’)

 

The investee Renova, currently in court-supervised reorganization, has been reporting recurring losses and presenting negative net working capital, net equity (uncovered liabilities), and negative gross margin throughout the year ended June 30, 2020.

 

However, in view of the investee’s equity deficit, Cemig GT reduced the carrying value of its equity interests in Renova, at December 31, 2018, to zero and no further losses have been recognized, considering the non-existence of any legal or constructive obligations to the investee.

 

Additionally, the Cemig GT recorded, in June 30, 2019, an impairment of the receivables with the jointly-controlled entity related to energy purchase and sale agreements and terms of debt recognition for total outstanding balance, in the amount of R$688 million.

 

Application to the court by Renova for court-supervised reorganization

 

On October 16, 2019, the second State of São Paulo Bankruptcy and Court-Supervised Reorganization Court granted court-supervised reorganization petition applied by Renova, and by the other companies of the group (‘the Renova Group’), and determined, among other measures, the following: (i) Appointment of an independent company to act as judicial administrator.; (ii) Suspension of actions and executions against the companies of the Renova Group for 180 days, under Article 6 of Law 11,101/2005; (iii) Presentation of accounts by the 30th of each month, while the court-supervised reorganization proceedings continue, on penalty of the controlling shareholders of the companies of the Renova Group being removed, and replaced by administrator, under Article 52, IV, of Law 11,101/2005; (iv) Dispensation of presentation of certificates of absence of debt so that the companies of the Renova Group can exercise their activities; and (v) Order to publish a tender, in the terms of §1 of Article 52 of Law 11,101/2005, with 15 days for presentation of qualifications and/or divergences of credits in relation to the court-supervised reorganization.

On December 17, 2019, Renova filed its court-supervised reorganization plan and on July 7, 2020, in order to set a court-supervised reorganization structure that best meets the interests of creditors and companies in reorganization, Renova filed two new court supervised reorganization plans. The first plan relates exclusively to the companies of Phase A of the Alto Sertão III Project, bound to the loan originally obtained from the BNDES, and the second plan relates to the investee and the other companies in court-supervised reorganization of the Renova Group, both of them are in progress in the second Bankruptcy and Court-supervised reorganization Court of the legal district of São Paulo State. The court-supervised reorganization plan is in discussion, which is subjected to enhancements and changes until the General Meeting of Creditors, scheduled to be held in September 2020. Up to the date, the possible effects of this jointly controlled subsidiary court-supervised reorganization plan on its accounting balances have not been measured.

 

In this context, Renova signed with the Company Debtor in Possession (DIP) loan agreements in the total amount of R$36,500. The funds of these loans were authorized by the second State of São Paulo Bankruptcy and Court-supervised Reorganization Court. They are guaranteed by a fiduciary assignment of shares in a company owning assets of a wind power project owned by Renova, and they also have priority of receipt in the court-supervised reorganization process. Additionally, Cemig GT made an Advance for Future Capital Increase to Renova, of R$5,000, on October 25, 2019.

 

On May 2, 2020, the Bankruptcy and Court-supervised Reorganization Court issued a decision ordering that the DIP loan, in the total amount of R$ 36,500 million, with asset guarantee, already constituted and registered, would be subscribed as a capital increase in Renova. Company has filed a Motion for Clarification, which was denied by the judge. A procedural appeal is now in progress against the first instance judge’s decision, which was suspended by the Appeal Court on receiving this appeal. The Company’s legal advisors have classified the chances of loss as ‘possible’. Due to the uncertainties on the financial situation of the investee, the Company recognized impairment loss for the total of its credits against Renova, of R$ 37,361, in the second semester of 2020.

 

On March 20, 2020, the Board of Directors of Renova approved acceptance of a binding offer made by ARC Capital Ltda. (‘ARC’), jointly with G5 Administradora de Recursos Ltda (‘G5’), and XP Vista Asset Management Ltda. (‘XP’) for financing to conclude the works of Phase A of the Alto Sertão III Wind Farm Complex, and to fund the current operational expenses of Renova. The offer final conditions for agreement are still under negotiation.

 

Considering the non-existence of any legal or constructive obligations to the investee, the Company has concluded that the granted of court-supervised reorganization filed by Renova does not have any additional impact in its interim financial information.

Amazônia Energia S.A. and Aliança Norte Energia S.A.

 

Amazônia Energia and Aliança Norte are shareholders of Norte Energia S.A. (‘NESA’), which holds the concession to operate the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant. Through the jointly-controlled entities referred to above, Cemig GT owns an indirect equity interest in NESA of 11.69%.

 

On June 30, 2020 NESA had negative net working capital of R$1,763,409 and will spend further amounts on projects specified in its concession contract, even after conclusion of the construction and full operation of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant. According to the estimates and projections, the situation of negative net working capital, and the future demands for investments in the hydroelectric plant, will be supported by revenues from future operations and/or raising of bank financings.

 

On September 21, 2015, NESA was awarded a preliminary injunction ordering the regulator to ‘abstain, until hearing of the application for an injunction made in the original case, from applying to Appellant any penalties or sanctions in relation to the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant not starting operations on the date established in the original timetable for the project, including those specified in an the regulator (Aneel) Normative Resolution 595/2013 and in the Concession Contract for the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Plant’. The legal advisers of NESA have classified the probability of loss as ‘possible’ and estimated the potential loss on June 30, 2020 to approximately R$2,047,000 (R$1,962,000 on December 31, 2019).

 

c)        Business combination - Centroeste

 

On January 13, 2020, Centroeste became a wholly own subsidiary of the Company through the acquisition of the remaining equity interest of 49% held by Eletrobras. The acquisition, which resulted in the Company obtaining control, is the result of exercise of the right of first refusal for acquisition of the shareholding offered in Eletrobras Auction 01/2018, Lot P, held on September 27, 2018, and confirmed on January 15, 2019.

 

Centroeste operates in construction, operation and maintenance of the transmission facilities of the Furnas-Pimenta transmission line – part of the national grid.

 

The consideration paid for the acquisition is R$44,775, resulting from the price in the Tender Announcement, adjusted by the accumulated variation of the Selic rate up to the date of conclusion of the transaction, less all dividends and/or Interest on Equity paid or declared by Centroeste in favor of Eletrobras in the period.

  d) Risks related to compliance with law and regulations

 

Jointly controlled entities and affiliates:

 

Norte Energia S.A. (‘NESA’) - through Amazônia Energia and Aliança Norte

 

Investigations and other legal measures are in progress since 2015, conducted by the Federal Public Attorneys’ Office, which involve other shareholders of NESA and certain executives of those other shareholders. In this context, the Federal Public Attorneys have started investigations on irregularities involving contractors and suppliers of NESA and of its other shareholders, which are still in progress. At present, it is not possible to determine the outcome of these investigations, and their possible consequences. These might at some time in the future affect the investee. In addition, based on the results of the independent internal investigation conducted by NESA and its other shareholders, an infrastructure write-down of the R$183,000 was already recorded at NESA, and reflected in the Cemig GT consolidated financial statements through the equity pick effect in 2015.

 

On March 9, 2018 ‘Operação Fortuna’ started, as a 49th phase of ‘Operation Lava Jato’ (‘Operation Carwash’). According to what has been disclosed by the media this operation investigates payment of bribes by the construction consortium of the Belo Monte power plant, comprising the companies Camargo Corrêa, Andrade Gutierrez, Odebrecht, OAS and J. Malucelli. Management of NESA believes that so far there are no new facts that have been disclosed by the 49th phase of ‘Operation Carwash’ that require additional procedures and internal independent investigation in addition to those already carried out.

 

The company’s management, based on its knowledge of the matters described above and on the independent procedure carried out, believes that the conclusions presented in the report of the independent investigation are adequate and appropriate; as a result no adjustment has been made in the interim financial information. The effects of any future alterations in the existing scenario will be reflected appropriately in the Company’s interim financial information.

Madeira Energia S.A (“MESA”)

 

Investigations and other legal measures are in progress, conducted by the Federal Public Attorneys’ Office, which involve other indirect shareholders of MESA and certain executives of those other indirect shareholders. In this context, the Federal Public Attorneys have started investigations searching for irregularities involving contractors and suppliers of MESA and of its other shareholders. In response to allegations of possible illegal activities, the investee and its other shareholders started an independent internal investigation.

 

The independent internal investigation, concluded in February 2019, in the absence of any future developments such as any leniency agreements by third parties that may come to be signed or collaboration undertakings that may be signed by third parties with the Brazilian authorities, found no objective evidence enabling it to be affirmed that there were any supposed undue payments by MESA (SAESA) that should be considered for possible accounting write-off, pass-through or increase of costs to compensate undue advantages and/or linking of MESA with the acts of its suppliers, in the terms of the witness accusations and/or cooperation statements that have been made public.

 

The company’s management, based on its knowledge of the matters described above and on the independent procedures carried out, believes that the conclusions presented in the report of the independent investigation are adequate and appropriate; as a result no adjustment has been made in the interim financial information. The effects of any future alterations in the existing scenario will be reflected appropriately in the Company’s interim financial information.

 

Renova Energia S.A. (“Renova”)

 

Since 2017 Renova is part of a formal investigation by the Civil Police of Minas Gerais State and other public authorities related to certain capital injections made by some of its controlling shareholders, including Cemig GT and capital injections made by Renova in certain projects under development in previous years.

 

On April 11, 2019, within the ‘Operação Descarte’ scope, the Brazilian Federal Police commenced the ‘Operation E o Vento Levou’ as part of the ‘Lava Jato’ Investigation, and executed a search and seizure warrant issued by a Federal Court of São Paulo at Renova’s head office in São Paulo, based on allegations and indications of misappropriation of funds harmful to the interests of Cemig. Based on the allegations being investigated, these events are alleged to have taken place before 2015. On July 25, 2019, the second phase of the operation occurred.

 

The ‘Operation E o Vento Levou’ and the police investigation of the Minas Gerais State Civil Police have not yet been concluded. Thus, there is a possibility that material information may be revealed in the future. If a criminal action is filed against agents who could have

damaged Renova, Renova intends to act as auxiliary to the prosecution in any criminal proceedings, and subsequently sue for civil reparation of the damages suffered.

 

Due to these third party investigations, the governance bodies of Renova have requested opening of an internal investigation, conducted by an independent company with the support of an external law firm, the scope of which comprises assessment of the existence of irregularities, including noncompliance with: the Brazilian legislation related to acts of corruption and money laundering; Renova’s Code of Ethics; and its integrity policies. Additionally, a Monitoring Committee was established in Renova which, jointly with the Audit Committee, accompanied this investigation. The internal investigation was concluded on February 20, 2020, and no concrete evidences of acts of corruption or diversion of funds to political campaigns were identified.

 

However, the independent investigators identified irregularities in the conducting of business and agreement of contracts by Renova, including: (i) payments without evidence of the consideration of services, in the total amount of approximately R$40 million; (ii) payments not in accordance with the company’s internal policies and best governance practices, in the total amount of approximately R$137 million; and (iii) deficiencies in the internal controls of the investee.

 

As a result of the analysis of the above mentioned values, Renova concluded that R$35 million relates to effective assets and therefore no impairment is necessary. The remaining amount of R$142 million was already impaired in previous years, producing no impact on the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and on the interim financial information for the period ended June 30, 2020.

 

In response to the irregularities found, and based on the recommendations of the Monitoring Committee and legal advisers, the Board of Directors of Renova decided to take all the steps necessary to preserve the rights of the investee, continue with the measures to obtain reimbursement of the losses caused, and strengthen the company’s internal controls.

 

Since the investment at Renova is fully impaired at June 30, 2020, and since no contractual or constructive obligations in relation to the investee have been assumed by the Company, it is not expected that effects resulting from the court-supervised reorganization process, or the investigations, or the operational activities of this investee can significantly impact the Company’s interim financial information, even if eventually not yet recorded by Renova.

 

Other investigations

 

In addition to the cases above, there are investigations being conducted by the Public Attorneys’ Office of the State of Minas Gerais (‘MPMG’) and by the Civil Police of the State of Minas Gerais (‘PCMG’), which aim to investigate possible irregularities in the investments made by Cemig GT in Guanhães Energia and also in MESA. Additionally, on April 11, 2019 agents of the Brazilian Federal Police were in the Company’s head office in

Belo Horizonte to execute a search and seizure warrant issued by a São Paulo Federal Court in connection with the ‘Operation E o Vento Levou’, as described above.

 

These proceedings are being investigated through the analysis of documents demanded by the respective authorities, and by hearing of witnesses.

 

Internal procedures for risks related to compliance with law and regulations

 

Taking into account the investigations that are being conducted at the Company and at certain investees, as described above, the governance bodies of the Company have authorized contracting a specialized company to analyze the internal procedures related to these investments, as well as the factors that led the Company to be assessed by federal tax authority for not paying withholding income tax in the acquisition of Light’s interest from Enlighted (see Note 24). This independent investigation was subject to oversight of an independent investigation committee whose creation was approved by our Board of Directors.

 

On July 29, 2019, Company signed a tooling agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and US Department of Justice (DOJ). Cemig has complied with the requests and intends to continue contributing to the SEC and the DOJ.

 

The Company’s internal investigation was completed and the corresponding report was issued on May 8, 2020. Considering the results of the internal investigations, no objective evidence was identified to affirm that there were illegal acts on the investments made by Company that were subject to the investigation, therefore, there was no impact in the interim financial information ended June 30, 2020 nor in its prior years financial statements.

 

Due to the completion of the investigations for which the Special Investigating Committee was constituted, from the delivery of the final report by the specialized company, the governance bodies of the Company decided to extinguish that Committee. If there are any future needs resulting from developments in this matter, the Committee can be reinstated.

 

The Company will evaluate any changes in the future scenario and eventual impacts that could affect the Financial Statements, when applicable. The Company will collaborate with the relevant authorities and their analysis related to the investigations in progress.

The Company and its subsidiaries have not identified any evidence of impairment of its Property, plant and equipment assets. The generation concession contracts provide that at the end of each concession the grantor must determine the amount to be reimbursed to the Company – with the exception of the concession contracts related to Lot D of Auction 12/2015 and those from the independent energy producers supported by the Decree 1,996/2003. Management believes that the indemnity of these assets will be greater than the amount of their historic cost, after depreciation over their useful lives.

 

The residual value of the assets is the residual balance of the assets at the end of the concession contract which will be transferred to the grantor at the end of the concession contract and for which Cemig GT is entitled to receive in cash. For contracts under which Cemig does not have a right to receive such amounts or there is uncertainty related to collection of the amounts, such as in the case of thermal generation and hydroelectric generation as an independent power producer, no residual value is recognized, and the depreciation rates are adjusted so that all the assets are depreciated within the concession term.

 

Consortium

 

The Company is a partner in an energy generation consortium for the Queimado plant, for which no separate company with independent legal existence was formed to manage the object of the concession. The Company’s portion in the consortium is recorded and controlled individually in the respective categories of PP&E and Intangible assets.

Concession assets

 

The portion of the distribution infrastructure that will be fully used up during the concession is recorded in Intangible assets. Assets linked to the infrastructure of the concession that are still under construction are posted initially as contract assets, as detailed in Note 14.

 

The intangible asset easements, onerous concessions, assets of concession, and others, are amortized by the straight-line method taking into account the consumption pattern of these rights. The amount of additions on June 30, 2020 includes capitalized borrowing costs, which represents a reversal of R$111, as presented in Note 22.

 

The main amortization rates, which take into account the useful life that management expects for the asset, reflect the expected pattern of their consumption and are revised annually by Management.

 

The annual average amortization rate is 4.09%:

Under the regulations of the energy segment, property, plant and equipment used in the distribution concession are linked to these services, and cannot be withdrawn, disposed of, assigned or provided in guarantee without the prior express authorization of the Regulator.

 

The rights of authorization to generate wind power granted to Parajuru and Volta do Rio, valued at R$56,965 (R$60,072 on December 31, 2019) and R$55,050 (R$66,606 on December 31, 2019), respectively, are included in the individual balance sheet of the subsidiary Cemig GT as investment and are classified as intangibles in the consolidated balance sheet of the Company, in accordance with Technical Interpretation ICPC 09. In addition, the rights of authorization of gas distribution granted to Gasmig, in the amount of R$419,131 (R$426,760 on December 31, 2019), are classified as intangible assets in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and are recognized as investments in its individual balance sheet, as Note 15, in accordance with Technical Interpretation ICPC 09. These rights of authorization of wind power generation and gas distribution are amortized by the straight-line method, during the period of the concession.

 

On December 31, 2019, the Company recognized an impairment loss for the intangible asset related to the right of authorization for wind power generation granted to the subsidiary Volta do Rio, in the amount of R$21,684, recorded in “Other expenses” in the income statement. The test of impairment of intangible assets, relating to the authorization for wind power generation granted to Volta do Rio, arises from non-achievement of the operational performance expected in 2019 for the wind generation assets of the subsidiary.

 

On June 30, 2020, due to continuing operational performance lower than expectations, an impairment test was carried out on the intangible assets related to the authorization for wind generation of the Volta do Rio plant, resulting in the recognition of an impairment of R$ 8,459, recognized in ‘Other expenses’ in the statement of income.

 

The Value in Use of the assets was calculated based on the projection of future expected cash flows for the operation of the assets of the subsidiary, brought to present value by the weighted average cost of capital defined for the company’s activity, using the Firm Cash Flow (FCFF) methodology.

 

 

  18. LEASING TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company and its subsidiaries recognized a right of use and a lease liability, according the IFRS 16 / CPC 06 (R2) – Leases, for the following contracts which contain a lease:

 

§  Leasing of commercial real estate used for serving customers;

§  Leasing of buildings used as administrative headquarters;

§  Leasing of commercial vehicles used in operations.

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries have elected to use the recognition exemptions for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option (short-term leases), and lease contracts for which the underlying asset is of low value (low-value assets). Thus, these leasing agreements are recognized as an expense in the income statement on the straight-line basis, over the period of the leasing. Their effects on net income from January to June 2020 were immaterial.

 

The discount rates were obtained by reference to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, based on the debts contracted by the Company and through quotations with potential financial institutions.

 

  a) Right-of-use assets

 

The right-of-use assets were valued at cost, corresponding to the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liabilities, and amortized on the straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Changes in the Right-of-use assets are as follows:

  b) Lease liabilities

 

The liability for leasing agreements is measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term, discounted at the Company’s and its subsidiaries marginal borrowing interest rate. The carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there are modifications that shall be accounted for as a remeasurement of the lease liability in accordance with CPC 06 (R2)/IFRS 16.

The changes in the lease liabilities are as follows:

  (1) The Company’s marginal borrowing rate applied to lease liability recognized in the statement of financial position on the date of the initial application varied between 7.96% p.a. and 10.64% p.a., depending on the leasing contract period, and 13.17% p.a., respectively, for contracts with maturities of up to two years, two to five years and longer than five years. The rates applied to the contracts entered into during 2019 were 6.87% p.a., 7.33% p.a. and 8.08% p.a., for contracts with maturities, respectively, of up to three years, three to four years, and over four years. To determine the marginal borrowing rate, the Company used as a reference quotation obtained from financial institutions, these being a function of the Company’s credit risk, and market conditions on the date of contracting.
  (2) Financial revenues recognized in the Income Statement are net of incorporation of the credits for PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes on payments of rentals, in the amounts of R$861 and R$12, for the consolidated and individual financial statements, respectively.

 

The potential right to recovery of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes embedded in the leasing consideration, according to the periods specified for payment, is as follows:

 

Cash flow Consolidated Parent company
Nominal Adjusted to present value Nominal Adjusted to present value
Consideration for the leasing 666,240 256,251 7,444 2,723
Potential PIS/Pasep and Cofins (9.25%) 54,798 17,840 683 247

 

The Company, in full compliance with CPC 06 (R2) in statement and restatement of its lease liability and for Right of Use, used the technique of discounted cash flow, without considering projected future inflation in the flows to be discounted, as per the prohibition imposed by CPC 06 (R2). This prohibition could generate material distortions in the information to be provided, given the present reality of long-term interest rates in the Brazilian economic environment. The Company has evaluated these effects and concluded that they are immaterial for its interim financial information.

 

The cash flows of the contracts containing a lease are, in their majority, updated by the IPCA inflation index on an annual basis. Below is an analysis of maturity of lease contracts:

 

  Consolidated (nominal) Parent Company (nominal)
2020 43,638 788
2021 61,082 305
2022 28,658 272

  (1) This includes the withholding income tax on Interest on equity. This payment, and the deduction, were made in the first month of 2020, in accordance with the tax legislation.

 

Due to Covid-19 pandemic, the Company joined the government programs that granted deferral of taxes payments, substantially related to the last quarter, which will be made by the end of the year.

 

The amounts of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes to be reimbursed to customers refer to the credits to be received by Cemig D following the inclusion of the ICMS value added tax within the taxable amount for calculation of those taxes. According note 8 (a), the Company recognized, in 2019, its right to offsetting of amounts unduly paid for the 10 years prior to the action being filed, with monetary updating by the Selic rate, due to the final judgment – against which there is no appeal – on the Ordinary Action, in favor of the Company.

 

Cemig D has constituted a liability corresponding to the credits to be reimbursed to its customers, which comprises the period of the last 10 years, from June 2009 to May 2019, net of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes over monetary updating.

 

The amounts will be reimbursed to customers as from the date when the tax credits are in fact offset and the mechanisms and criteria for the reimbursement will be discussed with Aneel.

As stated in Note 13.5, on August 5, 2020, Cemig D has submitted to Aneel a proposal for bringing forward Cemig D’s already-planned restitution to its customers of a total amount of R$714,339 million – corresponding to part of the funds released by the courts due to Cemig’s success in the claim. Cemig D’s decision represents an anticipation of the effects, and treatment in terms of regulations of the Supreme Court’s decision that determined the exclusion of ICMS tax amounts from the basis for calculation of PIS/ Pasep and Cofins taxes. These regulations will be applied equally to all energy distribution concessions through an Aneel normative ruling, which will be issued after conclusion of Public Consultation 005/2020 – during which there will be discussion on the merits, and in which Cemig will be able to take part in a wide-ranging discussion on the subject.

Borrowing costs, capitalized

 

Costs of loans directly related to acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily requires a significant time to be concluded for the purpose of use or sale are capitalized as part of the cost of the corresponding asset. All other costs of loans are recorded as finance costs in the period in which they are incurred. Costs of loans include interest and other costs incurred by the Company in relation to the loan.

 

The subsidiaries Cemig D and Gasmig transferred to intangible assets and to concession contract assets the costs of loans and financing linked to construction in progress, as follows:

 

  Jun. 30, 2020 Jun. 30, 2019
Costs of loans and financing 605,621 628,774
Financing costs on intangible assets and contract assets (1) (22,515) (22,822)
Net effect in Profit or loss 583,106 605,952

 

  (1) The average capitalization rate p.a. in 2020 was 4.28% (6.79% in 2019).

 

The amounts of the capitalized borrowing costs have been excluded from the statement of cash flows, in the additions to cash flow of investment activities, as they do not represent an outflow of cash for acquisition of the related asset.

There is also an obligation to comply with a ‘maintenance’ covenants – that the consolidated debt, shall have a guarantee for debt of 1.75x Ebitda (2.0 as of December 31, 2017); and a ‘damage’ covenant, requiring real guarantee for debt at Cemig GT of 1.5x Ebitda.
  (3) If Gasmig does not achieve the required covenants, it must, within 120 days from the date of notice in writing from BNDES or BNDESPar, constitute guarantees acceptable by the debenture holders for the total amount of the debt, subject to the rules of the National Monetary Council (CMN), unless the required ratios are restored within that period. Certain contractually specified situations can cause early maturity of other debts (cross-default).
  (4) The financing contracts with Caixa Econômica Federal for the Praias de Parajuru and Volta do Rio wind power plants have financial covenants with compliance relating to early maturity of the debt remaining balance. Compliance with the debt servicing coverage index is considered to be demandable only annually and during the period of amortization, which begins in July 2020.
  (5) The financial covenant at the BNDES loan contract of the subsidiary Centroeste includes the former shareholder, Centrais Elétricas Brasileiras S.A. – Eletrobrás. The event of a breach of the financial covenant, demands the constitution of real guarantees, which must be accepted by BNDES, in the amount of 130% of the loans or debt.

The covenants remain in compliance as of June 30, 2020, with the exception non-compliance with the non-financial covenant of the loan contracts with the CEF of the subsidiaries Central Eólica Praias de Parajuru and Central Eólica Volta do Rio. Thus, exclusively to comply with the requirement of item 69 of CPC 26 (R1), the Company reclassified R$57,550 to current liabilities, referring to the loans of those subsidiaries, which were originally classified in non-current liabilities. Additionally, the Company assessed the possible consequences arising from this matter in their other contracts for loans, financings and debentures, and concluded that no further adjustments were necessary.

 

The information on the derivative financial instruments (swaps) contracted to hedge the debt servicing of the Eurobonds (principal, in foreign currency, plus interest), and the Company’s exposure to interest rate risks, are disclosed in Note 30.

The Company and its subsiadiaries’ management, in view of the extended period and the Brazilian judiciary, tax and regulatory systems, believes that it is not practical to provide information that would be useful to the users of these interim financial information in relation to the timing of any cash outflows, or any possibility of reimbursements.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries’ believes that any disbursements in excess of the amounts provisioned, when the respective claims are completed, will not significantly affect the Company and its subsidiaries’ result of operations or financial position.

The details on the main provisions and contingent liabilities are provided below, with the best estimation of expected future disbursements for these contingencies:

 

Provisions, made for legal actions in which the chances of loss have been assessed as ‘probable’ and contingent liabilities, for actions in which the chances of loss are assessed as ‘possible’

 

Labor claims

 

Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal claims filed by its employees and by employees of service providing companies. Most of these claims relate to overtime and additional pay, severance payments, various benefits, salary adjustments and the effects of such items on a supplementary retirement plan. In addition to these actions, there are others relating to outsourcing of labor, complementary additions to or re-calculation of retirement pension payments by Forluz, and salary adjustments.

 

The aggregate amount of the contingency is approximately R$1,676,250 (R$1,668,684 at December 31, 2019), of which R$462,432 (R$487,101 at December 31, 2019) has been recorded – the amount estimated as probably necessary for settlement of these disputes.

Alteration of the monetary updating index of employment-law cases

 

The Higher Employment-Law Appeal Court (Tribunal Superior do Trabalho, or TST), considering a position adopted by the Federal Supreme Court (Supremo Tribunal Federal, STF) in two actions on constitutionality that dealt with the index for monetary updating of federal debts, decided on August 4, 2015 that employment-law debts in actions not yet decided that discuss debts subsequent to June 30, 2009 should be updated based on the variation of the IPCA-E (Expanded National Customer Price Index), rather than of the TR reference interest rate. On October 16, 2015 the STF gave an interim injunction suspending the effects of the TST decision, on the grounds that general repercussion of constitutional matters should be adjudicated exclusively by the STF.

 

In a joint judgment published on November 1, 2018, the TST decided that the IPCA-E should be adopted as the index for inflation adjustment of employment-law debts for cases filed from March 25, 2015 to November 10, 2017, and the TR would continue to be used for the other periods. The estimated amount of the contingency is R$107,120 (R$106,484 at December 31, 2019), of which R$10,414 (R$10,219 at December 31, 2019) has been provisioned upon assessment by the Company of the effects of the decision of the Regional Employment-Law Appeal Court of the third region (TRT3) in May 2019, on the subject of the joint judgment published by the TST, in the cases for which the chances of loss have been classified as ‘probable’ and which are at execution phase. No additional provision has been made, since the Company, based on the assessment by its legal advisers, has assessed the chances of loss in the action as ‘possible’, as a result of the decision by the Federal Supreme Court, and of there being no established case law, nor analysis by legal writers, on the subject, after the injunction given by the Federal Supreme Court.

 

Customers claims

 

Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various civil actions relating to indemnity for moral injury and for material damages, arising, principally, from allegations of irregularity in measurement of consumption, and claims of undue charging, in the normal course of business, totaling R$116,244 (R$67,771 at December 31, 2019), of which R$17,902 (R$18,314 at December 31, 2019) has been recorded – this being the probable estimate for funds needed to settle these disputes.

 

Other civil proceedings

 

Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various civil actions claiming indemnity for moral and material damages, among others, arising from incidents occurred in the normal course of business, in the amount of R$314,904 (R$299,921 at December 31, 2019), of which R$28,695 (R$17,767 at December 31, 2019) has been recorded – the amount estimated as probably necessary for settlement of these disputes.

Tax

 

Company and its subsidiaries are involved in numerous administrative and judicial claims actions relating to taxes, including, among other matters, subjects relating to the Urban Property Tax (Imposto sobre a Propriedade Territorial Urbana, or IPTU); the Rural Property Tax (ITR); the Tax on Donations and Legacies (ITCD); the Social Integration Program (Programa de Integração Social, or PIS); the Contribution to Finance Social Security (Contribuição para o Financiamento da Seguridade Social, or Cofins); Corporate Income tax (Imposto de Renda Pessoa Jurídica, or IRPJ); the Social Contribution (Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido, or CSLL); and motions to tax enforcement. The aggregate amount of this contingency is approximately R$155,539 (R$203,872 at December 31, 2019), of which R$6,589 (R$42,999 at December 31, 2019) has been recorded – the amount estimated as probably necessary for settlement of these disputes.

In addition to the issues above the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various proceedings on the applicability of the IPTU Urban Land Tax to real estate properties that are in use for providing public services. The aggregate amount of the contingency is approximately R$79,388 (R$78,883 on December 31, 2019). Of this total, R$3,824 has been recognized (R$4,002 on December 31, 2019) – this being the amount estimated as probably necessary for settlement of these disputes. The company has been successful in its efforts to have its IPTU tax liability suspended, winning judgments in favor in some cases – this being the principal factor in the reduction of the total value of the contingency.

 

Social Security contributions on profit sharing payments

 

The Brazilian tax authority (Receita Federal) has filed administrative and court proceedings against the Company, relating to social security contributions on the payment of profit shares to its employees over the period 1999 to 2016, alleging that the Company did not comply with the requirements of Law 10,101/2000 on the argument that it did not previously establish clear and objective rules for the distribution of these amounts. In August 2019, the Regional Federal Court of the First Region published a decision against the Company on this issue. As a result the Company, based on the opinion of its legal advisers, reassessed the chances of loss from ‘possible’ to ‘probable’ for some portions paid as profit-sharing amounts, maintaining the classification of the chance of loss as 'possible' for the other portions, since it believes that it has arguments on the merit for defense and/or because it believes that the amounts questioned are already within the period of limitation.

The amount of the contingencies is approximately R$1,477,080 (R$1,450,963 on December 31, 2019), of which R$1,235,247 (R$1,213,440 on December 31, 2019) has been provisioned, this being the estimate, on June 30, 2020, of the probable amount of funds to settle these disputes.

Indemnity of employees’ future benefit (the ‘Anuênio’)

 

In 2006 the Company and its subsidiaries paid an indemnity to its employees, totaling R$177,686, in exchange for rights to future payments (referred to as the Anuênio) for time of service, which would otherwise be incorporated, in the future, into salaries. The Company and its subsidiaries did not pay income tax and Social Security contributions on this amount because it considered that those obligations are not applicable to amounts paid as an indemnity. However, to avoid the risk of a future fine, the Company obtained an injection, which permitted to make an escrow deposit of R$121,834, which updated now represents the amount of R$284,386 (R$282,071 at December 31, 2019). The updated amount of the contingency is R$292,673 (R$289,086 on December 31, 2019) and, based on the arguments above, management has classified the chance of loss as ‘possible’.

 

Social Security contributions

 

The Brazilian federal tax authority (Secretaria da Receita Federal) has filed administrative proceedings related to various matters: employee profit sharing; the Workers’ Food Program (Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador, or PAT); education benefit; food benefit; Special Additional Retirement payment; overtime payments; hazardous occupation payments; matters related to Sest/Senat (transport workers’ support programs); and fines for non-compliance with accessory obligations. The Company have presented defenses and await judgment. The amount of the contingency is approximately R$114,072 (R$112,311 on December 31, 2019). Management has classified the chance of loss as ‘possible’, also taking into account assessment of the chance of loss in the judicial sphere, (the claims mentioned are in the administrative sphere), based on the evaluation of the claims and the related case law.

 

Non-homologation of offsetting of tax credit

 

The federal tax authority did not ratify the Company and its subsidiaries’ declared offsetting, in Corporate income tax returns, of carry-forwards and undue or excess payment of federal taxes – IRPJ, CSLL, PIS/Pasep and Cofins – identified by official tax deposit receipts (‘DARFs’ and ‘DCTFs’). The Company and its subsidiaries’ are contesting the non-homologation of the amounts offset. The amount of the contingency is R$159,909 (R$160,277 on December 31, 2019), and the chance of loss was classified as ‘possible’, since the relevant requirements of the National Tax Code (CTN) have been complied with.

Income tax withheld on capital gain in a shareholding transaction

 

The federal tax authority issued a tax assessment against Cemig as a jointly responsible party with its jointly-controlled entity Parati S.A. Participações em Ativos de Energia Elétrica (Parati), relating to withholding income tax (Imposto de Renda Retido na Fonte, or IRRF) allegedly applicable to returns paid by reason of a capital gain in a shareholding transaction relating to the purchase by Parati, and sale, by Enlighted, at July 7, 2011, of 100.00% of the equity interests in Luce LLC (a company with head office in Delaware, USA), holder of 75.00% of the shares in the Luce Brasil equity investment fund (FIP Luce), which was indirect holder, through Luce Empreendimentos e Participações S.A., of approximately 13.03% of the total and voting shares of Light S.A. (Light). The amount of the contingency is approximately R$232,636 (R$229,906 on December 31, 2019), and the loss has been assessed as ‘possible’.

 

The Social Contribution tax on net income (CSLL)

 

The federal tax authority issued a tax assessment against the Company for the years of 2012 and 2013, alleging undue non-addition, or deduction, of amounts relating to the following items in calculating the Social Contribution tax on net income: (i) taxes with liability suspended; (ii) donations and sponsorship (Law 8,313/91); and (iii) fines for various alleged infringements. The amount of this contingency is R$414,113 (R$400,075 on December 31, 2019). The Company has classified the chances of loss as ‘possible’, in accordance with the analysis of the case law on the subject.

ICMS (local state value added tax)

 

From December 2019 at March 2020, the Tax Authority of Minas Gerais State issued an infringement notice against the subsidiary Gasmig, in the amount of R$55,204, relating to reduction of the calculation base of ICMS tax in the sale of natural gas to its customers over the full month of December 2014, alleging a divergence between the form of calculation used by Gasmig and the opinion of that tax authority.

 

The claim comprises: principal of R$17,047; penalty payments of R$27,465; and interest of R$10,692. Considering that the State of Minas Gerais, over a period of more than 25 years, has never made any allegations against the methodology of calculation by the Company, the managers, together with their legal advisers, believe that there is a defense under Article 100, III of the National Tax Code, which removes claims for penalties and interest; and that the contingency for loss related to these amounts is ‘remote’. In relation to the argument on the difference between the amount of ICMS tax calculated by Gasmig and the new interpretation by the state tax authority, the probability of loss was considered ‘possible’. On June 30, 2020 the amount of the contingency for the period relating to the rules on expiry by limitation of time is R$98,763.

Regulatory matters

 

Public Lighting Contribution (CIP)

 

Cemig and Cemig D are defendants in several public civil claims (class actions) requesting nullity of the clause in the Electricity Supply Contracts for public illumination signed between the Company and the various municipalities of its concession area, and restitution by the Company of the difference representing the amounts charged in the last 20 years, in the event that the courts recognize that these amounts were unduly charged. The actions are grounded on a supposed error by Cemig in the estimation of the period of time that was used in calculation of the consumption of energy for public illumination, funded by the Public Lighting Contribution (Contribuição para Iluminação Pública, or CIP).

 

The Company and its subsidiary believe there are arguments of merit for defense in these claims, since the charge at present made is grounded on Aneel Normative Resolution 456/2000. As a result it has not constituted a provision for this action, the amount of which is estimated at R$993,543 (R$959,269 at December 31, 2019). The Company has assessed the chances of loss in this action as ‘possible’, due to the Customer Defense Code (Código de Defesa do Consumidor, or CDC) not being applicable, because the matter is governed by the specific regulation of the energy sector, and because Cemig complied with Aneel Resolutions 414 and 456, which deal with the subject.

 

Accounting of energy sale transactions in the Power Trading Chamber (CCEE)

 

In a claim dating from August 2002, AES Sul Distribuidora challenged in the court the criteria for accounting of energy sale transactions in the wholesale energy market (Mercado Atacadista de Energia, or MAE) (predecessor of the present Power Exchange Chamber – Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica, or CCEE), during the period of rationing. It obtained a favorable interim judgment on February 2006, which ordered the regulator (Aneel), working with the CCEE, to comply with the claim by AES Sul and recalculate the settlement of the transactions during the rationing period, not considering the regulator (Aneel) Dispatch 288 of 2002.

 

This should take effect in the CCEE as from November 2008, resulting in an additional disbursement for Cemig GT, related to the expense on purchase of energy in the spot market on the CCEE, in the approximate amount of R$357,167 (R$343,469 at December 31, 2019). On November 9, 2008 Cemig GT obtained an interim decision in the Regional Federal Appeal Court (Tribunal Regional Federal, or TRF) suspending the obligatory nature of the requirement to pay into court the amount that would have been owed under the Special Financial Settlement made by the CCEE. Cemig GT has classified the chance of loss as ‘possible’, since this action deals with the General Agreement for the Energy Sector, in which the Company has the full documentation to support its arguments.

Tariff increases

 

Exclusion of customers classified as low-income

 

The Federal Public Attorneys’ Office filed a class action against the Company and the regulator (Aneel), to avoid exclusion of customers from classification in the Low-income residential tariff sub-category, requesting an order for Cemig D to pay twice the amount paid in excess by customers. A decision was given in favor of the plaintiffs, but the Company and the regulator (Aneel) have filed an interlocutory appeal and await judgment. The amount of the contingency is approximately R$339,275 (R$326,719 on December 31, 2019). Cemig D has classified the chances of loss as ‘possible’ due to other favorable decisions on this matter.

 

Environmental claims

 

Impact arising from construction of power plants

 

The Public Attorneys of Minas Gerais State, together with an association and individuals, have brought class actions requiring Cemig GT to invest, since 1997, at least 0.5% of the annual gross operating revenue of the Emborcação, Pissarrão, Funil, Volta Grande, Poquim, Paraúna, Miranda, Nova Ponte, Rio de Pedras and Peti plants in environmental protection and preservation of the water tables of the counties where these power plants are located, and proportional indemnity for allegedly irrecoverable environmental damage caused, arising from omission to comply with Minas Gerais State Law 12,503/1997. Cemig GT has filed appeals to the Higher Appeal Court (STJ) and the Federal Supreme Court (STF). Based on the opinions of its legal advisers, Cemig GT believes that this is a matter involving legislation at infra-constitutional level (there is a Federal Law with an analogous object) and thus a constitutional matter, on the issue of whether the state law is constitutional or not, so that the final decision is one for the national Higher Appeal Court (STJ) and the Federal Supreme Court (STF). No provision has been made, since based on the opinion of its legal advisers management has classified the chance of loss as ‘possible’. The amount of the contingency is R$173,020 (R$165,299 at December 31, 2019).

 

The Public Attorneys’ Office of Minas Gerais State has filed class actions requiring the formation of a Permanent Preservation Area (APP) around the reservoir of the Capim Branco hydroelectric plant, suspension of the effects of the environmental licenses, and recovery of alleged environmental damage. Based on the opinion of its legal advisers in relation to the changes that have been made in the new Forest Code and in the case law on this subject, Cemig GT has classified the chance of loss in this dispute as ‘possible’. The estimated value of the contingency is R$99,027 (R$95,215 on December 31, 2019).

Other contingent liabilities

 

Early settlement of the CRC (Earnings Compensation) Account

 

The Company is involved in an administrative proceeding at the Audit Court of the State of Minas Gerais which challenges: (i) a difference of amounts relating to the discount offered by Cemig for early repayment of the credit owed to Cemig by the State under the Receivables Assignment Contract in relation to the CRC Account (Conta de Resultados a Compensar, or Earnings Compensation Account) – this payment was completed in the first quarter of 2013; and also (ii) possible undue financial burden on the State after the signature of the Amendments that aimed to re-establish the economic and financial balance of the Contract. The amount of the contingency is approximately R$431,377 (R$425,927 at December 31, 2019), and, based on the Opinion of the Public Attorneys’ Office of the Audit Board of the State of Minas Gerais (Tribunal de Contas), the Company believes that it has met the legal requirements. Thus, it has assessed the chances of loss as ‘possible’, since it believes that the adjustment was made in faithful obedience to the legislation applicable to the case.

 

Contractual imbalance

 

Cemig D is party in other disputes arising from alleged non-compliance with contracts in the normal course of business, for an estimated total of R$155,451 (R$148,904 on December 31, 2019). Cemig D has classified the chance of loss as ‘possible’, after analysis of the case law on this subject.

Annual General Meeting (AGM)

 

The Annual General Meeting, held on July 31, 2020 approved the Board of Directors’ proposal for allocation of net income for 2019 as presented in the Company’s financial statements for 2019, which included a proposal for increase of the registered share capital from R$7,293,763 to R$7,593,763, as per Article 199 of the Brazilian Corporate Law, as the profit reserves, with the exclusion of the Tax Incentive reserves, exceed the registered share capital by R$536,646.

 

The increase in the share capital by issuance of 60,000,000 new shares, comprises 20,056,076 common shares and 39,943,924 preferred shares, by capitalization of R$300,000 from Earnings Reserve, with distribution to shareholders, as a result, of new shares totaling 4.11%, of the number of shares held, of the same type, each with nominal value of R$5.00. The beneficiaries of the stock bonus will be those shareholders who held shares on July 31, 2020 for shares traded on the São Paulo stock Exchange (‘B3’).

 

On June 18, 2020, in the view of the uncertainty and volatility caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the Board of Directors approved the postponement of payment to shareholders of the first installment of interest on equity, which were approved on December 18, 2019, in the amount of R$200,000, from until June 30, 2020 to until December 30, 2020, maintaining unchanged all other conditions of this distribution of interest on equity. The Management has concluded that it would be prudent to postpone the date of this payment, as a preventive measure, to provide the Company with an additional reserve of cash to meet any needs that might arise in this period.

  c) The CVA account and Other financial components

 

The results from variations in (i) the CVA account (Parcel A Costs Variation Compensation Account), and in (ii) Other financial components in calculation of tariffs, refer to the positive and negative differences between the estimated non-manageable costs of the subsidiary Cemig D and the cost actually incurred. The amounts recognized arise from balances recorded in the current year, homologated or to be homologated in tariff adjustment processes. For more information please see Note 13.

 

  d) Transmission concession revenue

 

Transmission revenue comprises the amount received from agents of the energy sector for operation and maintenance of transmission lines of the national grid, in the form of the Permitted Annual Revenue (Receita Anual Permitida, or RAP), plus an adjustment for expectation of cash flow arising from the variation in the fair value of the Remuneration Assets Base, in the amout of R$3,145 in the period of January at June 2020 (R$7,834 in the period of January at June 2019).

 

In addition, as a consequence of the Tariff Periodic Reset, the Remuneration Base was remeasured resulting in an increase of R$198,714 in the Company’s income. For more information, see note 14.

 

The Company is subject to the pecuniary penalty named Variable Portion (Parcela Variável, or PV) which is applied by the Concession-granting Power as a result of any unavailabilities or operational restrictions on facilities that are part of the National Grid. This penalty is recognized as a reduction of revenue from operation and maintenance of the transmission network in the period in which it occurs. The effects of the Variable Portion in transmission revenue were R$5,537 on June 30, 2020 (R$5,254 on June 30, 2019).

 

  e) Construction revenue

 

Construction revenue corresponds to the performance obligation to build the transmission and distribution infrastructure during the construction phase. Considering that constructions and improvements are substantially executed through outsourced parties; and that all construction revenues is related to the construction of the infrastructure of the energy distribution and transmission services, Company’s management concluded that construction contract revenue has zero profit margin.

 

  f) Transmission indemnity revenue

 

Corresponded to updating, by the IPCA index, of the balance of transmission indemnity receivable. For further information, please see Note 13 and 14.

As a result of the Tariff Periodic Reset, the Company recognized a positive adjustment of R$231,126 in its income statemtent, of which R$10,183 corresponds to the portion classified as a financial asset, and R$220,943 corresponds to the assets reincorporated into the assets remuneration base. For further information, please see Note 13 and 14.

 

  g) Adjustment to expected cash flow from financial assets on residual value of infrastructure asses of distribution concessions

 

Income from the Regulatory Remuneration Asset Base.

 

  h) Revenue on financial updating of the Concession Grant Fee

 

Represents the inflation adjustment using the IPCA inflation index, plus interest, on the Concession Grant Fee for the concession awarded as Lot D of Auction 12/2015. See Note 13.

 

  i) Energy transactions on the CCEE (Power Trading Chamber)

 

The revenue from transactions made through the Power Trading Chamber (Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica, or CCEE) is the monthly positive net balance of settlements of transactions for purchase and sale of energy in the Spot Market, through the CCEE, for which the consideration corresponds to the product of energy sold at the Spot Price.

 

The revenue from the mechanism for the sale of energy surplus refers to the sale of power surpluses by distributor agents. In the case of sale of the amount of energy related to the regulatory limit or involuntary exposure, a portion of the gain may be passed through to the customer tariffs in the tariff adjustments.

Twenty installments were unpaid at June 30, 2020. These receivables have guarantee in the form of Cemig’s right to retain dividends and Interest on Equity otherwise payable to the State (in proportion to the State’s equity interest in the Company), for as long as any payments are overdue or in default. The amount of the Public Lighting Contribution relating to the debt recognition agreement at June 30, 2020 is R$246,104.
  (2) This refers to the recalculation of the inflation adjustment of amounts relating to the Advance against Future Capital Increase (AFAC), which were returned to the State of Minas Gerais.

For further information, see Note 10.

  (7) As mentioned in Note 15(b), in June 2019, due to the uncertainties related to continuity of Renova, an estimated loss on realization of the receivables was recorded for the full value of the balance, R$688 million.
  (8) On November 25, 2019, December 27, 2019 and January 27, 2020 DIP loan contracts under court-supervised reorganization proceedings, referred to as ‘DIP’, ‘DIP 2’ and ‘DIP 3’, were entered into between the Company and the investee Renova Energia S.A., which is in court-supervised reorganization, in the amounts of R$10 million, R$6.5 million and R$20 million, respectively. The contracts specify interest equal to 100% of the accumulated variation in the DI rate, plus an annual spread, applied pro rata die (on 252-business-days basis), of 1.083% for the DIP contract, 2.5% for the DIP2 contract and 1.5% for the DIP3, up to the date of respective full payment. The Company recognized an impairment loss for the receivables from Renova, of its total carrying amount of R$37,361, in the second semester of 2020. For further information, see note 15 (c).

Aiming at costs reduction, in November 2019, Cemig returned the Aureliano Chaves building to Forluz. Cemig is still negotiating with Forluz the returning of the remaining leased floors of Aureliano Chaves building, aiming at balancing the headquarters leasing costs to Cemig’s budgeting.
  (15) Post-employment obligations relating to the employees’ health and dental plan (see Note 23).

  (1) On June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the book values of financial instruments reflect their fair values.

 

At initial recognition the Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value and classifies them according to the accounting standards currently in effect. Fair value is a measurement based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Company uses the following classification to its financial instruments:

  § Level 1 – Active market – Quoted prices: A financial instrument is considered to be quoted in an active market if the prices quoted are promptly and regularly made available by an exchange or organized over-the-counter market, by operators, by brokers or by a market association, by entities whose purpose is to publish prices, or by regulatory agencies, and if those prices represent regular arm’s length market transactions made without any preference.
  § Level 2 – No active market – Valuation technique: For an instrument that does not have an active market, fair value should be found by using a method of valuation/pricing. Criteria such as data on the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially similar, or discounted cash flow analysis or option pricing models, may be used provided that all the material variables are based on observable market data. The objective of the valuation technique is to establish what would be the transaction price on the measurement date in an arm’s-length transaction motivated by business model.
  § Level 3 – No active market – No observable inputs: The fair value of investments in securities for which there are no prices quoted on an active market, and/or of derivatives linked to them which are to be settled by delivery of unquoted securities. Fair value is determined based on generally accepted valuation techniques, such as on discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation techniques such as, for example, New Replacement Value (Valor novo de reposição, or VNR).

 

For assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization.

 

Fair value calculation of financial positions

Distribution infrastructure concession financial assets: These are measured at New Replacement Value (Valor novo de reposição, or VNR), according to criteria established by the Concession-granting power (‘Grantor’), based on fair value of the concession assets in service and which will be revertible at the end of the concession, and on the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) defined by the Grantor, which reflects the concession holder’s return on the operations of the concession. The VNR and the WACC are public information disclosed by the Grantor and by Cemig respectively. Changes in concession financial assets are disclosed in Note 13.

 

Indemnifiable receivable – generation: measured at New Replacement Value (VNR), as per criteria set by regulations of the grantor power, based on the fair value of the assets to be indemnify at the end of the concession.

Marketable securities: Fair value of marketable securities is determined taking into consideration the market prices of the investment, or market information that makes such calculation possible, considering future interest rates and exchange of investments to similar securities. The market value of the security is deemed to be its maturity value discounted to present value by the discount rate obtained from the market yield curve.

Put options: The Company adopted the Black-Scholes-Merton method for measuring fair value of the SAAG and Sonda options. The fair value of these options was calculated on the basis of the estimated exercise price on the day of exercise of the option, less the fair value of the underlying shares, also estimated for the date of exercise, brought to present value at the reporting date.

 

Swaps: Fair value was calculated based on the market value of the security at its maturity adjusted to present value by the discount rate from the market yield curve.

 

Other financial liabilities: Fair value of its loans, financing and debentures were determined using 133.40% of the CDI rate – based on its most recent funding. For the loans, financing, debentures and debt renegotiated with Forluz, with annual rates between IPCA + 4.10% to 8.07% and CDI + 0.19% to 1.10%, Company believes that their carrying amount is approximated to their fair value.

 

  b) Derivative financial instruments

 

Put options

Company holds options to sell certain securities (put options) for which it has calculated the fair value based on the Black and Scholes Merton (BSM) model, considering the following assumptions: exercise price of the option; closing price of the underlying asset as of June 30, 2020; risk-free interest rate; volatility of the price of the underlying asset; and the time to maturity of the option.

 

Analytically, calculation of the exercise price of the options, the risk-free interest rate and the time to maturity is primarily deterministic, so that the main divergence in the put options takes place in the measurement of the closing price and the volatility of the underlying asset.

 

On June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the options values were as follows:

 

Consolidated Jun. 30, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019
Put option – SAAG                     505,641 482,841
Put / call options – Ativas and Sonda                       (2,678) (2,614)
  502,963 480,227

 

Put option – SAAG

 

Option contracts were signed between Cemig GT and the private pension entities that participate in the investment structure of SAAG (comprising FIP Melbourne, Parma Participações S.A. and FIP Malbec, jointly, ‘the Investment Structure’), giving those entities the right to sell units in the Funds that comprise the Investment Structure, at the option of the Funds, in the 84th (eighty-fourth) month from June 2014. The exercise price of the Put Options will correspond to the amount invested by each private pension plan in the Investment Structure, updated pro rata temporis by the Expanded National Customer Price

(IPCA) index published by the IBGE, plus interest at 7% per year, less such dividends and Interest on Equity as shall have been paid by SAAG to the pension plan entities. This option was considered to be a derivative instrument, accounted at fair value through profit and loss.

For measurement of the fair value of SAAG put options Cemig GT uses the Black-Scholes-Merton (‘BCM’) model. The assumption was made that the future expenditures of FIP Malbec and FIP Melbourne are insignificant, so that the options are valued as if they hold direct equity interests at Mesa. However, neither SAAG nor Mesa have its share traded on a securities exchange, so that some assumptions are necessary for calculation of the price of the asset and its volatility for application of the BSM model. The closing price of the share of Mesa on June 30, 2020 is ascertained based on free cash flow (FCFE), expressed by equity pick-up of the indirect interests held by the FIPs. Volatility, in turn, is measured as an average of historic volatility (based on the hypothesis that the series of the difference of continuously capitalized returns follows a normal distribution) of comparable companies in the energy generation sector that are traded at Bovespa.

Based on the analysis performed, a liability of R$505,641 was recorded in the Company’s interim financial information (R$482,841 on December 31, 2019), for the difference between the exercise price and the estimated fair value of the assets.

 

The changes in the value of the options are as follows:

  Consolidated
Balance at December 31, 2018 419,148
Adjustment to fair value 21,946
Balance at June 30, 2019 441,094
   
Balance at December 31, 2019 482,841
Adjustment to fair value 22,800
Balance at June 30, 2020 505,641

 

Cemig GT performed the sensitivity analysis of the exercise price of the option, varying the risk-free interest rate and the volatility, keeping the other variables of the model unchanged. In this context, scenarios for the risk-free interest rate at -0.89% to 3.11% p.a., and for volatility between 0.08 and 0.68 p.a., were used, resulting in estimates of minimum and maximum price for the put option of R$494,765 and R$516,740, respectively.

 

This option can potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future; however, they have not caused dilution of earnings per share in the years presented.

 

Sonda options

As part of the shareholding restructuring, CemigTelecom and Sonda signed a Purchase Option Agreement (issued by Cemig Telecom) and a Sale Option Agreement (issued by Sonda). With the merger of Cemig Telecom into Cemig, on March 31, 2018, the option contract became an agreement between Cemig and Sonda.

This resulted in Cemig simultaneously having a right (put option) and an obligation (call option). The exercise price of the put option will be equivalent to fifteen times the adjusted net income of Ativas in the year prior to the exercise date, multiplied by the percentage of equity interest held. The exercise price of the call option will be equivalent to seventeen times the adjusted net income of Ativas in the business year prior to the exercise date, multiplied by the percentage of equity interest held. Both options, if exercised, result in the sale of the shares in Ativas currently owned by the Company, and the exercise of one of the options results in nullity of the other. The options may be exercised as from January 1, 2021.

 

The put and call options in Ativas (‘the Ativas Options’) were measured at fair value and posted at their net value, i.e. the difference between the fair values of the two options on the reporting date of the interim financial information for June 30, 2020. The net value of the Ativas Options may be an asset or a liability of the Company.

 

The measurement has been made using the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) model. In the calculation of the fair value of the Ativas Options based on the BSM model, the following variables are taken into account: closing price of the underlying asset on June 30, 2020; the risk-free interest rate; the volatility of the price of the underlying asset; the time to maturity of the option; and the exercise prices on the exercise date.

 

The valuation base date is June 30, 2020, the same date as the closing of the Company’s interim financial information, and the methodology used to calculate the fair value of the company is discounted cash flow (DCF) based on the value of the shares transaction of Ativas by Sonda, occurred on October 19, 2016. The calculation of the risk-free interest rate was based on yields of National Treasury Bills. Maturity was calculated assuming exercise date of March 31, 2021.

Considering that the exercise prices of the options are contingent upon the future financial results of Ativas, the estimated exercise prices on the maturity date was based on statistical analyses and information of comparable listed companies.

 

Swap transactions

Considering that part of the loans and financings of the Company’s subsidiaries is denominated in foreign currency, the companies use derivative financial instruments (swaps) to protect the servicing associated with these debts (principal plus interest).

 

The derivative financial instruments contracted have the purpose of protecting the operations against the risks arising from foreign exchange variation and are not used for speculative purposes.

 

The notional amount of derivative transactions are not presented in the statement of financial position, since they refer to transactions that do not require cash as only the gains or losses actually incurred are recorded. The net result of those transactions on June 30, 2020 was a positive adjustment of R$1,800,960 (positive adjustment of R$613,394 on June 30, 2019), which was posted in finance income (expenses).

  1) For the US$1 billion Eurobond issued on December 2017: (i) for the principal, a call spread was contracted, with floor at R$3.25/US$ and ceiling at R$5.00/US$; and (ii) a swap was contracted for the total interest, for a coupon of 9.25% p.a. at an average rate equivalent to 150.49% of the CDI. For the additional US$500 million issuance of the same Eurobond issued on July 2018: (1) a call spread was contracted for the principal, with floor at R$3.85/US$ and ceiling at R$5.00/US$; and (2) a swap was contracted for the interest, resulting in a coupon of 9.25% p.a., with an average rate equivalent to 125.52% of the CDI rate.
  2) In millions of US$.

 

In accordance with market practice, Cemig GT uses a mark-to-market method to measure its derivatives financial instruments for its Eurobonds. The principal indicators for measuring the fair value of the swap are the B3 future market curves for the DI rate and the dollar. The Black & Scholes model is used to price the call spread, and one of parameters of which is the volatility of the dollar, measured on the basis of its historic record over 2 years.

 

The fair value at June 30, 2020 was R$3,281,491 (R$1,690,944 on December 31, 2019), which would be the reference if Cemig GT would liquidate the financial instrument on that date, but the swap contracts protect the Company’s cash flow up to the maturity of the bonds in 2024 and they have carrying value of R$2,362,718 at June 30, 2020 (R$922,066 on December 31, 2019).

 

Cemig GT is exposed to market risk due to having contracted this hedge, the principal potential impact being a change in future interest rates and/or the future exchange rates. Based on the futures curves for interest rates and dollar, Cemig GT prepare a sensitivity analyses and estimates that in a probable scenario its results would be affected by the swap and call spread at the end of the period in the amount of R$1,736,780 for the option (call spread), partially compensated by R$1,375,980 for the swap – comprising a total of R$3,112,759.

The same methods of measuring marked to market of the derivative financial instruments described above were applied to the estimation of fair value.

 

  c) Financial risk management

Corporate risk management is a management tool that is part of the Company’s corporate governance practices, and is aligned with the process of planning, which sets the Company’s strategic business objectives.

The Company monitor the financial risk of transactions that could negatively affect the Company’s liquidity or profitability, recommending hedge protection strategies to minimize the Company’s exposure to foreign exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and inflation risks, which are effective, in alignment with the Company’s business strategy.

The main risks to which the Company is exposed are as follows:

 

Exchange rate risk

 

Cemig and its subsidiaries are exposed to the risk of appreciation in exchange rates, with effect on loans and financing, suppliers, and cash flow. The net exposure to exchange rates is as follows:

 

Exposure to exchange rates       Jun. 30, 2020 Dec. 31, 2019
Foreign currency R$ Foreign currency R$
US dollar        
Loans and financing (Note 21) (1,513,698)                      (8,289,009) (1,515,814) (6,109,793)

Net liabilities exposed   (8,462,982)   (6,352,559)

 

Sensitivity analysis

Based on information from its financial consultants, the Company estimates that in a probable scenario the variation of the exchange rates of foreign currencies in relation to the Real at June 30, 2021 will be an depreciation of the dollar by 8.69% to R$5.00. The Company has prepared a sensitivity analysis of the effects on the Company’s net income arising from depreciation of the Real exchange rate by 25%, and by 50%, in relation to this ‘probable’ scenario.

Net liabilities exposed 666,244 (2,040,995)

 

Sensitivity analysis

 

In relation to the most significant interest rate risk, Company estimates that, in a probable scenario, at June 30, 2021 Selic and TJLP rates will be 2.00% and 4.61%, respectively. The Company has made a sensitivity analysis of the effects on its net income arising from increases in rates of 25% and 50% in relation to the ‘probable’ scenario.

Sensitivity analysis

 

In relation to the most significant risk of reduction in inflation index, reflecting the consideration that the Company has more assets than liabilities indexed to inflation indices, the Company estimates that, in a probable scenario, at June 30, 2021 the IPCA inflation index will be 3.00% and the IGPM inflation index will be 2.37%. The Company has prepared a sensitivity analysis of the effects on its net income arising from a reduction in inflation of 25% and 50% in relation to the ‘probable’ scenario.

Liquidity risk

 

Cemig has sufficient cash flow to cover the cash needs related to its operating activities.

 

The Company manages liquidity risk with a group of methods, procedures and instruments that are coherent with the complexity of the business, and applied in permanent control of the financial processes, to guarantee appropriate risk management.

 

Cemig manages liquidity risk by permanently monitoring its cash flow in a budget-oriented manner. Balances are projected monthly, for each one of the companies, over a period of 12 months, and daily liquidity is projected over 180 days.

 

Short-term investments must comply with investing principles established in the Company’s Cash Investment Policy. These include applying its resources in private credit investment funds, without market risk, and investment of the remainder directly in bank CDs or repo contracts which earn interest at the CDI rate.

 

In managing cash investments, the Company seeks to obtain profitability through a rigid analysis of financial institutions’ credit risk, applying operational limits for each bank, based on assessments that take into account their ratings, exposures and balance sheet. It also seeks greater returns on investments by strategically investing in securities with longer investment maturities, while bearing in mind the Company’s minimum liquidity control requirements.

 

Any reduction in the Company’s ratings could result in a reduction of its ability to obtain new financing and could also make refinancing of debts not yet due more difficult or more costly. In this situation, any financing or refinancing of the Company’s debt could have higher interest rates or might require compliance with more onerous covenants, which could additionally cause restrictions to the operations of the business.

 

The flow of payments of the Company’s obligation to suppliers, debts with the pension fund, loans, financing and debentures, at floating and fixed rates, including future interest up to contractual maturity dates, is as follows:

Credit risk

 

The distribution concession contract requires levels of service on a very wide basis within the concession area, and disconnection of supply of defaulting customers is permitted. Additionally, the Company uses numerous tools of communication and collection to avoid increase in default. These include: telephone contact, emails, text messages, collection letters, posting of customers with credit protection companies, and collection through the courts.

 

The risk arising from the possibility of Cemig and its subsidiaries incurring losses as a result of difficulty in receiving amounts billed to its customers is considered to be low. The credit risk is also reduced by the extremely wide customers’ base.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable recorded on June 30, 2020, considered to be adequate in relation to the credits in arrears receivable by the Company, was R$888,024.

 

Cemig and its subsidiaries manage the counterparty risk of losses resulting from insolvency of financial institutions based on an internal policy, has been in effect since 2004.

 

This Policy assesses and scales the credit risks of the institutions, the liquidity risk, systemic risk related to macroeconomic and regulatory conditions, the market risk of the investment portfolio and the Treasury operational risk.

 

All investments are made in financial securities that have fixed-income characteristics, always indexed to the CDI rate. The Company does not carry out any transactions that would bring volatility risk into its financial statements.

 

As a management instrument, Cemig and its subsidiaries divide the investment of its funds into direct purchases of securities (own portfolio) and investment funds. The investment funds invest the funds exclusively in fixed income products, having companies of the Group as the only unit holders. They obey the same policy adopted in the investments for the Company’s directly-held own portfolio.

 

The minimum requirements for concession of credit to financial institutions are centered on three items:

 

  1.     Rating by three risk rating agencies.
  2.     Equity greater than R$400 million.
  3. Basel ratio one percentage point above the minimum set by the Brazilian Central Bank.

Banks that exceed these thresholds are classified in three groups, in accordance with its equity amount, plus a specific segment comprising those whose credit risk is associated only with federal government. The credit limits are determined based on this classification, as follows:

 

Group Equity

Limit per bank

(% of equity)1

Federal Risk (FR) - 10%
A1 Over R$ 3.5 billion Between 6% and 9%
A2 Between R$1.0 billion and R$3.5 billion Between 5% and 8%
A3 Between R$400 million and R$1.0 billion Between 0% and 7%

 

1The percentage assigned to each bank depends on individual assessment of indicators, e.g. liquidity, and quality of the credit portfolio.

 

Cemig also sets two concentration limits:

  1. No bank may have more than 30% of the Group’s portfolio.
  2. “Federal Risk” and “A1” banks may have more than 50% of the portfolio of any individual company.

 

COVID-19 Pandemic – Risks and uncertainties related to Cemig’s business

 

The Company’s assessment concerning the risks and potential impacts of Covid-19 are disclosed in Note 1.1..

 

Risk of over-contracting and under-contracting of energy supply

 

Sale or purchase of energy supply in the spot market to cover a positive or negative exposure of supply contracted, to serve the captive market of Cemig D, is an inherent risk to the energy distribution business. The regulatory agent limits for 100% pass-through to customers the exposure to the spot market, valued at the difference between the distributor’s average purchase price and the spot price (PLD) is 105% of the distributor’s contracted supply. Any exposure that can be proved to have arisen from factors outside the distributor’s control (‘involuntary exposure’) may also be passed through in full to customers. Company’s management is continually monitories its contracts for purchase of energy supply to mitigate the risk of exposure to the spot market.

 

On April 07, 2020, Aneel expanded the limit of total amount of energy that can be declared by energy distributors in the process of the mechanism for the sale of surplus (‘Mecanismo de Venda de Excedentes’ - MVE), during 2020, from 15% to 30%, for the purpose of facilitating contractual reductions, considering the scenario caused by Covid-19 pandemic.

Risk of continuity of the concession

 

The risk to continuity of the distribution concession arises from the new terms included in the extension of Cemig D’s concession for 30 years from January 1, 2016, as specified by Law 12,783/13. The extension introduced changes to the present contract, conditional upon compliance by the distributor with new criteria for quality, and for economic and financial sustainability.

 

The extension is conditional on compliance with indicators contained in the contract itself, which aim to guarantee quality of the service provided and economic and financial sustainability of the company. These are determinant for actual continuation of the concession in the first five years of the contract, since non-compliance with them in two consecutive years, or in the fifth year, results in cancellation of the concession.

 

Additionally, as from 2021, non-compliance with the quality criteria for three consecutive years, or the minimum parameters for economic/financial sustainability for two consecutive years, results in opening of proceedings for termination of the concession.

 

Due to the inspection carried out by Aneel, the indicators of efficiency criteria regarding service continuity were recalculated for the period from January 2016 to May 2019, resulting in a non-compliance of the annual global limit for the indicator DEC (Customer Unit Average Outage Duration) for the periods of 2016 and 2017. Once the DEC calculated for the period of 2019 also exceeded the regulatory global limit, the prohibition on declaration of dividends and interest on equity, provided in Article 2º of Aneel Normative Resolution 747/2016, was applied, limiting the amount of dividend and interest on equity, isolated or jointly, to 25% of net income, less the amounts allocated to the legal reserve and the Contingency Reserve. It is important to note that the internal indicators (DECi and FECi) for maintaining the distribution concession were complied with in all periods.

 

The efficiency criteria for continuity of supply and for economic and for financial management, required to maintain the distribution concession, were met in the period ended June 30, 2020.

 

Hydrological risk

 

The greater part of the energy sold by the Company’s subsidiaries is generated by hydroelectric plants. A prolonged period of drought can result in lower water volumes in the reservoirs of these plants, which can lead to an increase in the cost of acquisition of energy, due to replacement by thermoelectric generation, or reduction of revenues due to reduction in consumption caused by implementation of wide-ranging programs for saving of energy. Prolongation of the generation of energy using the thermal plants could pressure costs of acquisition of supply for the distributors, causing a greater need for cash, and could result in future increases in tariffs.

Risk of debt early maturity

 

The Company’s subsidiaries have loan contracts with restrictive covenants normally applicable to this type of transaction, related to compliance with a financial index. Non-compliance with these covenants could result in earlier maturity of debts.

 

On June, 30, 2020, the Company was compliant with all the covenants for financial index requiring half-yearly and annual compliance, except for non-compliance with the non-financial covenant of the loan contracts with the CEF of the subsidiaries Central Eólica Praias de Parajuru and Central Eólica Volta do Rio.

Disposal of interest in and control of Light

 

On November 27, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company decided, in the context of Cemig’s disinvestment program, to maintain as a priority for 2019 the firm commitment to sale of the shares in Light S.A. owned by Cemig, on conditions that are compatible with the market and also in accordance with the interests of shareholders.

 

Additionally, the Company has concluded that its investment in Light now meets the criteria of CPC 31 – Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations; and that its sale in the near future is highly probable. The Company has also evaluated the effects on the investments held in the companies LightGer, Axxiom, Guanhães and UHE Itaocara, which are jointly controlled by the Company and by Light.

 

On July 17, 2019, together with the public offering of shares by Light, the Company sold 33,333,333 shares that it held in that investee, at the price per share of R$18.75, in the total amount of R$625,000.

 

Additionally, with completion of the public offering of shares by Light, the Company’s equity interest in the total capital of this investee was reduced from 49.99% to 22.58%, corresponding to 68.621.263 shares of a total of 303.934.060, this limited its right of voting in meetings of shareholders, and consequently its ability to direct material activities of the investee.

 

Thus, as from that date, with the alteration of the equity interest in Light, the Company ceased to have the power ensuring it control over that investee. In these circumstances, the Company wrote down the values of assets and liabilities of its former subsidiary, and recognized, at fair value, its remaining equity interest as an investment in an affiliate or jointly-controlled entity, in accordance with IFRS 10 / CPC 36 (R3) Consolidated financial statements.

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

 

Since the Company maintains its firm commitment to dispose of the remaining equity interest in Light, the investment in that company continues to be classified in Assets held for sale, in accordance with CPC 31 / IFRS 5 – Non-current assets held for sale, and discontinued operations, at its fair value, subtracting the cost of sale. The difference between the book value of the remaining equity interest and its fair value was recognized in the net income for the period from discontinuing operations.

 

The Company also wrote down, on the date of the sale of the control, the assets and liabilities of the former subsidiaries Itaocara, Guanhães, LightGer and Axxiom, and recognized its remaining equity interest in these investees at fair value as investments in jointly-controlled subsidiaries, valued by the equity method. These investments, which are jointly controlled with Light, were not classified under Held for sale and Discontinued operations, since the company does not have the intention of selling these interests. For more information, see Note 15.

 

The restatement of the remaining equity interest in Light at fair value used the sale price of the shares on the date of the loss of control (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy), of R$18.75 per share, less the estimated costs for the sale estimated at R$28,538.

 

Maintenance of the interest in Light as an asset held for sale

 

In 2019, Management has not completed the process of disinvestment of the entire investment in Light due to external factors, beyond its control and to unfavorable market conditions.

 

Company’s management continues to have a firm commitment to dispose of the remaining equity interest in Light and estimates that conclusion of the process in 2020 is highly probable. Considering that it is an investment in an affiliate, it was classified as an asset held for sale, but no longer as a discontinued operation, in accordance with the provisions established in CPC 31/IFRS 5 – Non-current assets held for sale, and discontinued operations.

 

On March 31, 2020, the market conditions have deteriorated as a result of Covid-19 situation and the Company reduced the carrying amount of the asset to its market value less estimated costs to sell, resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of R$609 million in profit or loss from continuing operations.

 

On June 30, 2020, with the partial recovery in the stock market, the Company remeasured the fair value of the shares held, using the closing price on that date, of R$ 16.58, less estimated cost to sell, based on the most likely disposal process in the current scenario, of 1.2% on the total negotiated. The impairment of the asset held for sale, accumulated until June 30, 2020, recognized in the net income from continuing operations, totals R$ 134 million, corresponding to the difference between the fair values of Light interest, as valued at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2020, less cost to sell. Thus, the recovery in the market price of the investee in the second quarter of 2020 resulted in a reversal of R$ 475 million in the impairment constituted in the first quarter of 2020.

The equity value of the interest held by Cemig in Light is R$1,506,620 (R$1,406,857 on December 31, 2019), corresponding to the Company’s shareholding of 22.58% in Light total equity of R$6,672,366 (R$6,230,544 on December 31, 2019).

 

 

33.   NON-CASH TRANSACTIONS

 

On the period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had the following transactions not involving cash, which are not reflected in the Cash flow statement:

  § Capitalized financial costs of R$22,515 on June 30, 2020 (R$22,822 on June 30, 2019);
  § Except for the cash arising from the business combination, in the amount of R$27,110, and the payment of R$44,775, the acquisition of the Centroeste’s remaining equity interest did not generate effects in the Company’s cash flow;
  § Except for the cash arising from the merger of the subsidiaries RME and LUCE, in April 24, 2019, amounting R$ 22,444, this transaction did not generate effects in the Company’s cash flow.

 

 

34.   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Offsetting of receivables from the State of Minas Gerais against ICMS tax payable

 

On July 31, 2020, Cemig D filed an application to the tax authority of State of Minas Gerais to offset debts for energy consumption and service owed by the Direct and indirect administrations of Minas Gerais State, using amounts of ICMS tax payable, under Article 3 of State of Minas Gerais Decree 47,908/2020, which regulated State Law 47,891/2020.

 

The main criteria applying to offsetting of these debts, under that Decree, are:

 

  § Offsetting in at least 12 installments. The maximum value of installments is limited to the number of months counted from the month following the request granting, until December, 2022;
  § Relinquishing by the creditor of the financial updating (arreas interest, fines, updating of the amounts of the installments, and legal fees, if any);
  § Offsetting starts from the first month after acceptance of the request.

 

Debts from the State of Minas Gerais that qualify for offsetting are those past due at June 30, 2019, which amount approximately R$ 240 million. The Company’s expects to begin the offsetting in the third quarter of 2020, after acceptance of its request

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

 

(Figures in R$ ’000 unless otherwise indicated)

 

Net income for the period

 

From January to June 2020, Cemig reports profit of R$986,691, compared to a profit of R$2,912,225 in the same period in 2019. This variation in Company’s income was due, mainly, to the recognition, in the same period of 2019, of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS, in the amount of R$1,984,069 (see note n. 8), which was partially offset by the recognition of an impairment loss for receivables from Renova, in the amount of R$688,031 (see note n. 27).

 

For the first semester of 2020, we highlight the recognition of (i) the positive adjustments of Periodic Reset of Permitted Annual Revenue in the amount of R$283,694 (net of taxes), (ii) an impairment loss of R$88,455 (net of taxes) related to the Light equity interest classified as asset held for sale, and (iii) the negative result arising from the debt in foreign currency (Eurobonds) and its corresponding hedge instrument, which was R$242,213 (net of taxes). The main variations in revenues, costs, expenses and financial items are described in the following pages.

 

Ebitda (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization)

 

Cemig’s consolidated adjusted Ebtida, with the removal of non-recurrent items, reduced in 8.54% in 1H20 compared to 1H19, whereas the adjusted Ebtida margin decreased from 21.95% to 19.95%. Consolidated Ebtida, measured according to CVM Instruction 527, decreased 20.04% % in 1H20 compared to 1H19, whereas the Ebtida margin was 25.31% in 1H19 and 22.63% in 1H20.

+ RTP adjustments (429,840) - -
Ebitda Adjusted (2) 2,306,567 2,522,062 (8.54)

 

  (1) Ebitda is a non-accounting measure prepared by the Company, reconciled with the consolidated Interim financial information in accordance with CVM Circular SNC/SEP 1/2007 and CVM Instruction 527 of October 4, 2012. It comprises Net income adjusted by the effects of net financial revenue (expenses), Depreciation and amortization, and Income tax and social contribution tax. Ebitda is not a measure recognized by Brazilian GAAP nor by IFRS; it does not have a standard meaning; and it may be non-comparable with measures with similar titles provided by other companies. Cemig publishes Ebitda because it uses it to measure its own performance. Ebitda should not be considered in isolation or as a substitution for net income or operational profit, nor as an indicator of operational performance or cash flow, nor to measure liquidity nor the capacity for payment of debt.
  (2) The Company adjusts the EBTIDA measured according to CVM Instruction 527 removing non-current items, which, because of their nature, do not contribute towards information on the potential of future cash generation, since they are extraordinary items.

The lower adjusted Ebtida in 1H20 than in 1H19 mainly reflects the increase of 3.84% in the adjusted operational costs, partially offset by the 0.63% rise in adjusted net revenue. The consolidated LAJIDA, on the other hand, reduced mostly because of the recognition of revenue with PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits, in an amount of R$1,438,563, in 1H19.

 

The main items in revenue in the period:

 

Revenue from supply of energy

 

Revenue from sales of energy in 1H20 were R$12,687,452 and R$12,929,154 in 1H19, a decrease of 1.87%.

 

Final customers

 

Total revenue from energy sold to final customers in the 1H20 was R$11,083,458 – or 3.53% lower compared to 1H19 (R$11,489,454).

 

The main factors in this revenue were:

 

  § The annual tariff adjustment for Cemig D, effective May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020) resulting in an average increase in customer tariffs of 8.73%; and
  § Volume of energy invoiced to captive and free industrial clients 15.8% lower in 1H20 than in 1H19, mainly due to the measures to contain the Covid-19 pandemic.

The volume of energy sold to the industrial sector decreased 15.80% compared to 1H19, due, mainly, to the Covid-19 pandemic restrictive measures. The following factors also contributed significantly:

 

  § Residential consumption 2.86% higher YoY in 1H20, mainly reflecting the increase of 1.8% in the number of customers.
  § Decrease of 5.85% in the volume of energy sold to the rural customer category compared to 1H19, mainly due to the higher rainfall in 1Q20 than 1Q19, which reduced consumption for irrigation.

  § Supply to other concession holders 20.48% higher YoY, due to the higher volume of sales to traders in the early months of 2020, due to the lower consumption by clients due to the economic activity contraction resulting from the pandemic – partially offset by sales in the Regulated Market 1.5% lower YoY, due to differences in the seasonalization profile of the distributors.

 

Revenue from Use of Distribution Systems (the TUSD charge)

 

This is revenue from charging Free Customers the Tariff for Use of the Distribution System (TUSD), on the volume of energy distributed. In 1H20, this was R$1,399,108, compared to R$1,265,719 in 1H19 - an increase of 10.54%. This difference mainly arises from the Company’s annual tariff adjustment, in effect from May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020), which was an increase of 15.47% for free clients, partially offset by volume of energy transported in 1H20 1.26% lower than in 1H19.

CVA and Other financial components in tariff adjustments

 

These items are the recognition of the difference between actual non-controllable costs (in which the contribution to the CDE – the Energy Development Account and energy bought for resale, are significant components) and the costs that were used in calculating rates charged to customers. The amount of this difference is passed through to customers in the next tariff adjustment of Cemig D (the distribution company), represented a gain of R$81,652 in 1H20, whereas in 1H19 it produced a revenue gain of R$80,241.

 

Additions to the CVA account were higher in In 1H20 compared to 1H19, mainly due to (i) higher costs of energy from Itaipu, as a result of the increase in the dollar exchange rate, and (ii) the effects of overcontracting, resulting from the reduction of consumption in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. These effects on revenue were offset by the passthrough of excess funds in the Energy Reserve Account (CONER) in 1H20 and by the tariff adjustment of 2019, which was significantly higher than the amount awarded in the previous year.

Transmission concession revenue

 

Cemig GT’s transmission revenue comprises the sum of the revenues of all the transmission assets. The concession contracts establish the Permitted Annual Revenue (Receita Anual Permitida, or RAP) for the assets of the existing system, updated annually based on the variation in the IPCA inflation index. Whenever there is an upgrade or adaptation to an existing asset, made under specific authorization from Aneel, an addition is made to the RAP.

 

This revenue was 74.30% higher in 1H20 compared to 1H19, being R$423,101 and R$242,743 respectively. The higher figure arises, mainly, from the periodic reset of RAP, ratified by Aneel in June 30, 2020, resulting in an adjustment of R$198,714. More details see note 14.

 

Additionally, these revenues were impacted by the increase in annual RAP, in July 2019 – this includes the effects of inflation and also new revenues resulting from investments authorized. They also include an adjustment to expectation of cash flow from financial assets, arising from change in the fair value of the Regulatory Remuneration Base of Assets (BRR).

 

Transmission reimbursement revenue

 

As specified in the sector regulations, the Company reports in each period the amount of the inflation/monetary adjustment applicable to the amount of indemnity receivable, based on the IPCA inflation index, which has a two-month delay, and the average regulatory cost of capital.

 

The revenue from reimbursements of transmission assets in 1H20 was R$316,218, – or 249.72% higher than in 1H19 (R$90,420). This higher figure mainly reflects the upward adjustment to the economic portion of the indemnity base, as a result of the Periodic Reset of RAP, which was remeasured in accordance with the applicable regulatory rules, resulting in an increase of R$ 231,126 in the Company’s income at June 30, 2020. More details see note 14.

 

At the beginning of the tariff cycle, which occurs in July of each year, the amounts received, plus the adjustment made for the cycle, corresponding to the amortization of the debtor balance up to the end of the period, are excluded from the remuneration base, reducing the amounts of the monetary updating and the remuneration on the remaining balance. The amounts of the reimbursements are being received through RAP, since July 2017, over a period of 8 years.

 

For more details see Notes 13 and 14.

Revenue from transactions in the Power Trading Exchange (CCEE)

 

Revenue from transactions in energy on the CCEE in 1H20 was R$31,598, or 92.05% lower than in 1H19, which was R$397,437. This reduction is primarily due to the deficit position on the CCEE assumed by Cemig GT in 1H20, compared to 1H19, due to: (i) lower allocation of its own generation; (ii) lower GSFs; and (iii) higher sales through spot-market bilateral contracts. On the other hand, in 1Q19 Cemig had a high excess of supply to be sold on the CCEE, arising from higher allocation of its own output, associated with higher GSFs and a lower volume of bilateral sales. Additionally, there was a reduction of 37.51% in the average spot price (PLD), which was R$ 131.68/MWh in 1H20, compared to R$ 210.73/MWh in 1H19.

 

The revenue from the mechanism for the sale of energy surplus (MVE) were R$ 104,814 in 1H20, relating to offers of supply made at the end of 2019 by Cemig D. The MVE enables distributors to sell excesses of supply and, for sales related to amounts of the regulatory limit or involuntary exposure, enables part of the benefit gained to be passed through to the customers tariffs in the tariff adjustments.

 

Revenue from supply of gas

 

Cemig reports revenue from supply of gas totaling R$962,887 in 1H20, compared to R$1,131,233 in 1H19 – a decrease of 14.88%. This basically reflects the reduction in the price of gas, which was passed through to customers – since the volume of gas sold was in fact 20% lower (at 433,273 m³ in the first half of 2020, vs. 537,346 m³ in same period of 2019), – under the influence, mainly, of the thermoelectric power generation and industrial sector, in which consumption was 45% and 13% lower, respectively. The effect of lower volume of gas sold was partially offset by the increase from application of the IGP-M inflation index to distribution costs, which occurs annually in February: the resulting increases were: 6.74% in 2019, and 7.81% in 2020, beyond Tariff Adjustment.

 

Construction revenue

 

Infrastructure construction revenue in 1H20 was R$683,676, or 46.96% higher compared to 1H19 (R$465,225).This variation is mainly due to the execution of a larger proportion of the Investment Plan budget in assets related to distribution concession infrastructure, especially those related to the medium- and low- voltage and sub-transmission networks. For the assets related to transmission infrastructure the difference arises mainly arises from the suspension of three implementation contracts, halting their financial realization – they will be re-tendered – and also the reductions resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

This revenue is fully offset by Construction costs, of the same amount, and corresponds to the Company’s investments in assets of the concession in the period.

PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS

 

The credits of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes (previously erroneously charged to include the amounts of ICMS taxes paid or due), totaling R$1,438,563, resulted from the success in the Company’s legal action questioning the inclusion of ICMS tax in these amounts, and is backdated to July 2003. For more information please see Note 8.

 

Other operating revenues

 

The other operating revenues line for the Company and its subsidiaries in first half of 2020 totaled R$886,612, compared to R$837,584 in the same period of 2019 – 5.85% higher YoY. See Note 26 for a breakdown of other operating revenues.

Taxes and regulatory charges reported as Deductions from revenue

 

The taxes and charges that are recorded as deductions from operating revenue totaled R$5,699,829 from January to June 2020, or 6.53% less than the same period in 2019 (R$6,097,956).

 

The Energy Development Account – CDE

 

The amounts of payments to the Energy Development Account (CDE) are decided by an Aneel Resolution. The purpose of the CDE is to cover costs of concession indemnities (reimbursements of costs of assets), tariff subsidies, and the subsidy for balanced tariff reduction, the low-income-customer subsidy, the coal consumption subsidy, and the Fuels Consumption Account (CCC). Charges for the CDE in 1H20 were R$1,217,865, compared to R$1,331,366 in 1H19 – 8.53% lower YoY, due, primarily, to the Regulated Market Account (ACR), in August, 2019.

 

This is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for setting of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

 

Customer charges – the ’Flag’ Tariff system

 

The ‘Flag’ Tariff bands are activated as a result of low levels of water in the system’s reservoirs – tariffs are temporarily increased due to scarcity of rain. The ‘Red’ band has two levels – Level 1 and Level 2. Level 2 comes into effect when scarcity is more intense. Activation of the flag tariffs generates an impact on billing in the subsequent month.

 

Customer charges were, from January to June, 2020, at R$59,656, than the same period in 2019 (R$19,868) – or 200,26% higher year-on-year.

The difference reflects the application of the ‘yellow’ tariff flag in December 2019 (affecting the billing of January 2020), and January 2020. There were no flag tariffs activated in the other months of 1H20. For comparison, in 1H19 the yellow flag was activated only in May (influencing billing in June 2019) and there was no activation of flags in the other months. Additionally, the increase also reflects re-invoicing in 2020 of invoices from previous periods.

 

Other taxes and charges on revenue

 

The deductions and charges with the most significant impact on revenue are mainly taxes, calculated as a percentage of sales revenue. Thus their variations are, substantially, in proportion to the variations in revenue.

 

Operating costs and expenses (excluding financial income/expenses)

 

Operating costs and expenses from January to June 2020 totaled R$9,947,051, or 2.86% less than the same period in 2019 (R$10,239,801). For more on the components of Operating costs and expenses see Note 27.

 

The following paragraphs comment on the main variations:

 

Employee profit sharing

 

The expense on employees’ and managers’ profit sharing was R$650,789 in 1H20, compared to R$677,072 in 1H19, 3.88% lower YoY. This arises mainly from the following factors:

 

  § The average number of employees was 4.87% lower in 1H20, at 5,467, compared to 5,747 in 1H19, parcially offset by the events described bellow.
  § Recognition, in 1H20, of a cost of R$58,850 on voluntary retirement plans, compared to R$21,495 in 1H19.
  § Salary increase of 2.55% under the Collective Work Agreement, as from November 2019.

Energy purchased for resale

 

This expense was R$5,569,733 in 1H20, or 8.78% higher year-on-year, compared to R$5,120,200 in 1H19. This arises mainly from the following items:

 

  § Expense on supply from Itaipu was 37.20% higher, at R$952,413 in 1H20, compared to R$694,177 in 1H19. The difference is mainly due to the increase of 29.79% in the average dollar quotation in 1H20 compared to 1H19 (R$5.01 and R$3.86, respectively), which has contributed to the rise in dollar energy price per KW (US$28.41/KW in 1H20 and US$27.71/KW in 1H19);
  § Expenses on supply acquired through physical guarantee quota contracts 4.14% higher, at R$379,450 in 1H20, compared to R$364,358 in 1H19. This is mainly due to the average price per MWh being 6.52% higher year-on-year in 1H20 (at R$108.62, compared to R$ 101.97 in 1H19).
  § Expenses on supply acquired at auction 12.35% higher: R$1,567,953 in 1H20, compared to R$1,395,566 in 1H19. This increase reflects volume of energy acquired.
  § Higher expenses on distributed generation (‘geração distribuída’): R$327,796 in 2H20, compared to R$82,858 in 1H19. This reflects the higher number of generation units installed (49,339 in June 2020, compared to 17,906 in June 2019); and the higher volume of energy injected into the grid (426,761 MWh in 1H20, compared to 179,833 MWh in 1H19).
  §  The expense on purchase of supply at the spot price was lower in 1H20, at R$ 633,003, than in 1H19 (R$ 762,267). The result expressed for spot-price supply is the net balance between revenues and expenses of transactions on the Power Trading Chamber (CCEE). The lower figure is mainly due to the average spot price (PLD) being 37.51% lower, at R$ 131.68/MWh in 1H20, compared to R$ 210.73/MWh in 1H19, and also the position assumed by Cemig D in 1H20, which was a creditor due to the lower consumption caused by the pandemic, contrasting with the position assumed in 1H19.

 

This is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment. For more details please see Note 27.

 

Charges for use of the transmission network

 

Charges for use of the transmission network in 1H20 totaled R$622,453, a lower of 11.23% compared to 1H19 (R$701,171).

 

These charges are payable by energy distribution and generation agents for use of the facilities that are components of the national grid. The amounts to be paid are set by a Resolution from the Regulator (Aneel).

The lower figure is due to the adjustment for the national grid – which was negative – being brought forward from July to April 2020, to financially support distributors agents during the Covid-19 pandemic, generating discounts in April, May and June 2020.

 

This is a non-manageable cost in the distribution activity: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

 

Operating provisions

 

Operating provisions in 1H20 totaled R$356,729, or 63.54% less than 1H19 (R$978,379). This arises mainly from the following factors:

 

  § Recognition, in 1H19, of an estimated loss on realization of the receivables from Renova, in the amount of R$688,031, compared to R$37,361 in 1H20.
  § Net additional provisions for third-party liability legal actions were higher – at R$22,690, in 1H20, compared to 1H19, of R$1,076. The difference mainly arises from provisions made for legal actions for third party liability, claiming payment of indemnity for pain and suffering, and material and aesthetic damage, caused by accidents involving the electricity network.
  § Losses expected on doubtful receivables from clients 69.40% higher, at R$215,100 in 1H20, compared to R$126,978 in 1H19. This difference mainly reflects an exponential increase in default by clients in the Public Authorities category, and also, worsening of performance in the Residential and Industrial category, because the Covid-19 pandemic.
  § provisions for employment-law legal actions amounting R$106,558 in 1H19, compared to provisions of R$30,688 in 1H20. The difference was recognized for application of the IPCA-E inflation index instead of the TR reference rate in monetary adjustment for employment-law legal actions dealing with debts arising from March 25, 2015 to November 10, 2017. These are at the advanced execution phase and now have chances of loss assessed as ‘probable’. For further information, see Note 24.

 

Construction cost

 

Infrastructure construction costs in 1H20 totaled R$683,676, or 46.96% more than 1H19 (R$465,225). This line records the Company’s investment in assets of the concession in the period, and is fully offset by the line Construction revenue, in the same amount.

Gas bought for resale

 

In 1H20, the Company recorded an expense of R$543,303 on acquisition of gas, 25.08% less than its comparable expense of R$725,162 in 1H19. This is basically due to volume of gas sold 20% lower (at 433,273 m³ in 1H20, compared to 537,346 m³ in 1H19), – under the influence, mainly, of the thermoelectric power generation and industrial sector, in which consumption was 45% and 13% lower in 1H20, respectively. The effect of lower volume of gas sold was partially offset by the increase from application of the IGP-M inflation index to distribution costs, which occurs annually in February: the resulting increases were: 6.74% in 2019, and 7.81% in 2020, beyond Tariff Adjustment.

 

Post-employment obligations

 

The Company’s post-retirement obligations in 1H20 is R$223,727 and R$198,699 in 1H2019. This is mainly the result of higher in the discount rate used in the actuarial calculation – which increased the amount of the actuarial liabilities, and consequently the scale of the expense reported.

 

Asset held for sale impairment

 

The Company recognized an impairment loss related to its equity interest in Light, classified as asset held for sale, in the amount of R$134,023. The market conditions have deteriorated as a result of Covid-19 situation and, in such circumstances, the fair value of equity interest in Light decreased significantly. For further information, see Note 32.

 

Share of profit (loss) of associates and joint ventures, net

 

The result of equity method valuation of interests in non-consolidated investees was a gain of R$164,476 in 1H20, an increase of 58.91% compared to 1H19, as a result, mainly, of the increase of 71.47% in the investee TAESA’s result, which was R$97,719 in 1H19 and R$167,556 in 1H20. In Addition, the loss of the associate Madeira decreased 56.97%, from (R$70,882) in 1H19 to (R$45,156) in 1H20.

 

The breakdown of the results from the investees recognized under this line is given in detail in Note 15.

 

Net financial revenue (expenses)

 

Cemig reports net financial expenses from January to June, 2020 of R$762,063, compared to the same period in 2019 (R$1,807,027). The main factors are:

 

  § Recognition of financial updating of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits in 1H19, in the amount of R$1,553,112 (see note 8).
  § Net negative effect of R$ 366,990 in 1H20 in the Eurobonds transaction and its corresponding hedge instrument – compared to a net gain of R$ 677,297 in 1H19.

The difference mainly reflects (i) the dollar appreciated by 35.86% against the Real in the 1H20, compared to appreciation of 1.10% in 1H19. This resulted in negative effects on the principal of the Eurobond debt in both periods: R$2,167,950 in 1H20, vs. R$63,904 in 1H19; (ii) Variation in the fair value of the financial instrument contracted to hedge the risks of the Eurobond lower than the depreciation of the exchange rate, at March 31, 2020, in contrast to the positive effect at March 31, 2019. In 1H20 the variation in the fair value of the hedge instrument resulted in a gain of R$1,800,960, compared to R$613,394 in 1H19. The higher figure was the result of the dollar future curve moving upward, resulting in both the call spread and the asset becoming more valuable; and also due to the curve for the future DI interest rate (the liability side of the transaction) moving downward, and contributing to an increase in fair value.

 

For a breakdown of financial revenues and expenses please see Note 28.

 

Income tax and social contribution tax

 

In 1H20, the expense on income and the Social Contribution taxes totaled R$379,556, on pre-tax profit of R$1,366,704, an effective rate of 27.77%. In 1H19, the expense on income and the Social Contribution taxes was R$1,688,472, on pre-tax profit of R$4,600,697 an effective rate of 36.70%.

 

These effective rates are reconciled with the nominal tax rates in Note 9(c).

 

Results for the quarter

 

In 2Q20, Cemig reports profit of R$1,043,994, compared a profit of R$2,114,986 in 2Q19. The negative year-on-year comparison in the Company’s net profit is mainly due to the recognition in 2Q19 of non-recurring recovery of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS tax, totaling (net of tax) R$ 1,984,069 – resulted from the success in the Company’s and its subsidiaries legal, subject to no further appeal – partially offset by the write-down of R$ 688,031 for doubtful credits receivable from the investee Renova (see Note 27).

 

The net income of 1H20 was also significantly impacted by the recognition of the positive adjustment arising from the periodic reset of RAP in the amount of R$283,694 (net of taxes) and by the partial reversal, in the amount of R$313,590 (net of taxes), and the impairment of R$ 402,046 (net of taxes) recorded in 1Q20 for the value of the investment in Light, classified as held for sale.

 

There was also a positive net gain of R$ 486,720 in Net financial revenue (expenses) from the net effect of FX variation on the Eurobond debt in foreign currency and its corresponding hedge transaction. See more information in Notes 21 and 30.

The following items describe the main variations between the two periods in revenues, costs, expenses and financial items.

 

Ebitda (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization)

 

Cemig’s consolidated adjusted EBTIDA, with the removal of non-recurrent items reduced in 11.30% in 2Q20 compared to 2Q19, whereas the adjusted Ebtida margin decreased from 19.02% to 17.10%. Consolidated Ebtida, measured according to CVM Instruction 527, decreased 0.15% % in 2Q20 compared to the same period last year, whereas the Ebtida margin was 25.82% in 2Q19 and 32.86% in 2Q20.

+ RTP adjustments (429,840) - -
Ebitda Adjusted (2) 941,190 1,061,041 (11.30)

 

  (1) Ebitda is a non-accounting measure prepared by the Company, reconciled with the consolidated Interim financial information in accordance with CVM Circular SNC/SEP 1/2007 and CVM Instruction 527 of October 4, 2012. It comprises Net income adjusted by the effects of net financial revenue (expenses), Depreciation and amortization, and Income tax and social contribution tax. Ebitda is not a measure recognized by Brazilian GAAP nor by IFRS; it does not have a standard meaning; and it may be non-comparable with measures with similar titles provided by other companies. Cemig publishes Ebitda because it uses it to measure its own performance. Ebitda should not be considered in isolation or as a substitution for net income or operational profit, nor as an indicator of operational performance or cash flow, nor to measure liquidity nor the capacity for payment of debt.
  (2) The Company adjusts the EBTIDA measured according to CVM Instruction 527 removing non-current items, which, because of their nature, do not contribute towards information on the potential of future cash generation, since they are extraordinary items.

 

 

 

The lower adjusted Ebtida in 2Q20, 2020 than 2Q19 mainly adjusted net revenue 1.32% lower, and adjusted operational costs 2.03% higher. The consolidated Ebtida, on the other hand, reduced mostly because of the recognition in 2Q19 of the gain of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS in the amount R$1,438,563 – partially offset by (i) recognition in 2Q20 of a gain of R$429,840 resulting from the periodic reset of RAP, and (ii) the reversal of impairment of Light, classified as held for sale, in the amount of R$475,137.

The main items in revenue in the period:

 

Revenue from supply of energy

 

Revenue from sales of energy in 2Q20 were R$5,920,014, compared to R$6,327,737 in 2Q19 – a decrease of 6.44%.

 

Final customers

 

Total revenue from energy sold to final customers in 2Q20 was R$5,332,353 – or 4.23% lower than 2Q19 (R$5,567,717), because the annual tariff adjustment for Cemig D, effective May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020) resulting in an average increase in customer tariffs of 8.73%.

 

Cemig’s energy market

 

The total for sales in Cemig’s consolidated energy market comprises sales to: (i) Captive customers in Cemig’s concession area in the State of Minas Gerais; (ii) Free Customers in both the State of Minas Gerais and other States of Brazil, in the Free Market (Ambiente de Contratação Livre, or ACL); (iii) other agents of the energy sector – traders, generators and independent power producers, also in the Free Market; (iv) Distributors, in the Regulated Market (Ambiente de Contratação Regulada, or ACR); and (v) the Power Trading Exchange (Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica – CCEE), eliminating transactions between companies of the Cemig Group.

The variations are primarily due to the following events:

  § Volume of energy sold to industrial clients 21.32% lower, and to commercial clients 12.20% lower, mainly due to the Covid-19 restrictive measures, under which non-essential commercial facilities were closed, industrial companies were shut down for part of the period, in-person school classes were canceled, and public bodies with in-loco activities were reduced or shut down.
  § Increase of 4.32% in the volume of energy sold to the residential category, related to the addition in the number of customers.

 

Revenue from Use of Distribution Systems (the TUSD charge)

 

This is revenue from charging Free Customers the Tariff for Use of the Distribution System (TUSD), on the volume of energy distributed. In 2Q20, this was R$674,737, compared to R$635,675 in the same period 2019 - increase of 6.14%. This difference mainly arises from the Company’s annual tariff adjustment, in effect from May 28, 2019 (full effect in 2020), which was an increase of 15.47% for free clients, partially offset by volume of energy transported in 1H20 5.61% lower than in 1H19.

CVA and Other financial components in tariff adjustments

 

These items are the recognition of the difference between actual non-controllable costs (in which the contribution to the CDE – the Energy Development Account and energy bought for resale, are significant components) and the costs that were used in calculating rates charged to customers. The amount of this difference is passed through to customers in the next tariff adjustment of Cemig D (the distribution company), represented a gain of R$136,254 in 2Q20, whereas in the same period in 2019 it produced a revenue gain of R$40,109.

 

This variation is due, primarily, to the high amount of revenue recognized in 2Q20 mainly because of the increase in the Itaipu energy cost, caused by the rise in the dollar exchange rate compared to 2Q19, and due to the overcontracting effects resulting from the energy consuption reduction, leading to a increment in the Company net financial asset. These effects on revenue were offset by the passthrough of excess funds in the Energy Reserve Account (CONER), determined by the Aneel Order (‘Despacho’) n. 986/2020

Transmission concession revenue

 

Cemig GT’s transmission revenue comprises the sum of the revenues of all the transmission assets. The concession contracts establish the Permitted Annual Revenue (Receita Anual Permitida, or RAP) for the assets of the existing system, updated annually based on the variation in the IPCA inflation index. Whenever there is an upgrade or adaptation to an existing asset, made under specific authorization from Aneel, an addition is made to the RAP.

 

This revenue was R$299,832 in 2Q20, compared to 2Q19 (R$125,564) – or 138.79% higher year-on-year. The higher figure arises from the reameasurement of the base of remuneration arising from the periodic reset of RAP, ratified by Aneel in June 30, 2020, resulting in an adjustment of R$198,714. More details see note 14.

 

Additionally, these revenues were impacted by the increase in annual RAP, in July 2019 – this includes the effects of inflation and also new revenues resulting from investments authorized. They also include an adjustment to expectation of cash flow from financial assets, arising from change in the fair value of the Regulatory Remuneration Base of Assets (BRR).

 

Transmission reimbursement revenue

 

As specified in the sector regulations, the Company reports in each period the amount of the inflation/monetary adjustment applicable to the amount of indemnity receivable, based on the IPCA inflation index, which has a two-month delay, and the average regulatory cost of capital.

 

The revenue from reimbursements of transmission assets in 2Q20 was R$259,680 – or 348.33% higher than the same period in 2019 (R$57,921). This higher figure mainly reflects the upward adjustment to the economic portion of the indemnity base, as a result of the Periodic Reset of RAP, which was remeasured in accordance with the applicable regulatory rules, resulting in an increase of R$ 231,126 in the Company’s income at June 30, 2020. More details see note 14.

 

At the beginning of the tariff cycle, which occurs in July of each year, the amounts received, plus the adjustment made for the cycle, corresponding to the amortization of the debtor balance up to the end of the period, are excluded from the remuneration base, reducing the amounts of the monetary updating and the remuneration on the remaining balance. The amounts of the reimbursements are being received through RAP, since July 2017, over a period of 8 years.

 

For more details see Note 13 – Financial assets of the concession.

Revenue from transactions in the Power Trading Exchange (CCEE)

 

Revenue from transactions in energy on the CCEE in 2Q20 was R$7,074, or 95.12% lower than the same period in 2019, which was R$144,821. This reduction is principally due to the deficit position on the CCEE assumed by Cemig GT in the first quarter of 2020, when compared to the same period 2019, due to: (i) lower allocation of its own generation; (ii) lower GSFs; and (iii) higher sales through spot-market bilateral contracts. On the other hand, in first quarter of 2019 Cemig had a high excess of supply to be sold on the CCEE, arising from higher allocation of its own output, associated with higher GSFs and a lower volume of bilateral sales.

 

The revenue from the mechanism for the sale of energy surplus (MVE) were R$41,514 in 2Q20, relating to offers of supply made at the end of 2019 by Cemig D. The MVE enables distributors to sell excesses of supply and, for sales related to amounts of the regulatory limit or involuntary exposure, enables part of the benefit gained to be passed through to the customers tariffs in the tariff adjustments.

 

Revenue from supply of gas

 

Cemig reports revenue from supply of gas totaling R$403,227 in 2Q20, compared to R$534,955 in the same period in 2019 – 24.62% lower YoY. This basically reflects the reduction in the price of gas, which was passed through to customers – since the volume of gas sold was in fact 17.55% lower (at 183,138 m³ in the second quarter of 2020, vs. 222,106m³ in same period of 2019), – under the influence, mainly, of the industrial sector, in which consumption was 21.75% lower in the second quarter of 2020. The effect of lower volume of gas sold was partially offset by the increase from application of the IGP-M inflation index to distribution costs, which occurs annually in February: the resulting increases were: 6.74% in 2019, and 7.81% in 2020, beyond Tariff Adjustment.

 

Construction revenue

 

Infrastructure construction revenue in 2Q20 was R$373,405, or 40.32% more than the same period in 2019 (R$266,107). This variation is mainly due to the major capital expenditure in 2Q20.

 

This revenue is fully offset by Construction costs, of the same amount, and corresponds to the Company’s investments in assets of the concession in the period.

 

PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS

 

The credits of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes (previously erroneously charged to include the amounts of ICMS taxes paid or due), totaling R$1,438,563, resulted from the success in the Company’s legal action questioning the inclusion of ICMS tax in these amounts, and is backdated to July 2003. For more information please see Note 8.

 

Other operating revenues

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

 

The other operating revenues line for the Company and its subsidiaries in 2Q20 totaled R$473,142, compared to R$396,386 in the same period of 2019 – 19.36% lower YoY. See Note 26 for a breakdown of other operating revenues.

Taxes and regulatory charges reported as Deductions from revenue

 

The taxes and charges that are recorded as deductions from operating revenue totaled R$2,687,389 in 2Q20, or 9.10% less than the same period in 2019 (R$2,956,432).

 

The Energy Development Account – CDE

 

The amounts of payments to the Energy Development Account (CDE) are decided by an Aneel Resolution. The purpose of the CDE is to cover costs of concession indemnities (reimbursements of costs of assets), tariff subsidies, and the subsidy for balanced tariff reduction, the low-income-customer subsidy, the coal consumption subsidy, and the Fuels Consumption Account (CCC). Charges for the CDE in 2Q20 were R$608,155, compared to R$679,017 in the same period in 2019 – 10.44% lower YoY, primarily, due to the Regulated Market Account (ACR), in August, 2019.

 

This is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for setting of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

 

Customer charges – the ’Flag’ Tariff system

 

The ‘Flag’ Tariff bands are activated as a result of low levels of water in the system’s reservoirs – tariffs are temporarily increased due to scarcity of rain. The ‘Red’ band has two levels – Level 1 and Level 2. Level 2 comes into effect when scarcity is more intense. Activation of the flag tariffs generates an impact on billing in the subsequent month.

 

Customer charges were, in 2Q20, at R$73, than the same period in 2019 (R$8,712) – or 99.16% lower year-on-year.

 

The variation is mostly because there were no flag tariffs activated in the 2Q20. In comparison, in the 2Q19, the yellow flag was activated in May (influencing billing in June 2019).

 

Other taxes and charges on revenue

 

The deductions and charges with the most significant impact on revenue are mainly taxes, calculated as a percentage of sales revenue. Thus their variations are, substantially, in proportion to the variations in revenue.

Operating costs and expenses (excluding financial income/expenses)

 

Operating costs and expenses in 2Q20 totaled R$4,928,788, or 10.22% less than the same period in 2019 (R$5,489,685). For more on the components of Operating costs and expenses see Note 27.

 

The following paragraphs comment on the main variations:

 

Employee profit sharing

 

The expense on employees’ and managers’ profit sharing was R$339,183 in 2Q20, compared to R$312,031 in the same period in 2019, 8.70% higher YoY. This arises mainly from the recognition, in the second quarter of 2020, of a cost of R$58,850 on voluntary retirement plans and salary increase of 2.55% under the Collective Work Agreement, as from November 2019.

 

Energy purchased for resale

 

This expense in 2Q20 was R$2,755,238, or 9.07% higher year-on-year, compared to R$2,526,019 in the same period in 2019. This arises mainly from the following items:

 

  §   Expense on supply from Itaipu was 45.31% higher, at R$524,601 in the second quarter of 2020, compared to R$361,021 in the same period of 2019. The difference is mainly due to the increase of 37.76% in the average dollar quotation in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period last year (R$3.92 and R$5.40, respectively), which has contributed to the rise in dollar energy price per KW (US$28.41/KW in the year of 2020 and US$27.71/KW in 2019);
  § Expenses on supply acquired through physical guarantee quota contracts 2.26% higher, at R$189,617 in 2Q20, compared to R$185,427 in the same period of 2019. This is mainly due to the average price per MWh being 7.2% higher year-on-year in 2Q20 (at R$109.36, compared to R$101.93 in 2Q19);
  § Expenses on supply acquired at auction 9.31% higher: R$748,514 in 2Q20, compared to R$684,774 in the same period of 2019. This increase reflects volume of energy acquired approximately 10% higher year-on-year, added to the effect of upward adjustment in power purchasing agreements in the Regulated Market (CCEARs) taking place at the moment of the distributors’ tariff adjustment.
  § Higher expenses on distributed generation (‘geração distribuída’): R$154,315 in 2Q20, compared to R$44,892 in 2Q19. This reflects the higher number of generation units installed and the higher volume of energy injected into the grid (232,076 MWh in 2Q20, compared to 95,965 MWh in 2Q19).

  §   Lower expense on purchase of supply in the spot market, R$251,066 in 2Q20 compared to R$278,055 in the same period of 2019. The result expressed for spot-price supply is the net balance between revenues and expenses of transactions on the Power Trading Chamber (CCEE). The lower figure is mainly due to the average spot price (PLD) being 42.55% lower, at R$75.47/MWh in 2Q20 compared to R$131.37/MWh in 2Q19, and also the position assumed by Cemig D in 2Q20, which was a creditor due to the lower consumption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, contrasting with the position assumed in 2Q19. This effect was partially offset by the increase in the Cemig GT consolidated expenses on purchase of supply in the spot market, mostly because of the deficit assumed in CCEE in 2Q20.

 

This is a non-manageable cost: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment. For more details please see Note 27.

 

Charges for use of the transmission network

 

Charges for use of the transmission network in 2Q20 totaled R$257,441, a lower of 29.92% compared with the same period in 2019 (R$367,375).

 

These charges are payable by energy distribution and generation agents for use of the facilities that are components of the national grid. The amounts to be paid are set by a Resolution from the Regulator (Aneel).

 

This is a non-manageable cost in the distribution activity: the difference between the amounts used as a reference for calculation of tariffs and the costs actually incurred is compensated for in the subsequent tariff adjustment.

 

Operating provisions

 

Operating provisions in 2Q20 totaled R$197,613, or 77.27% less than the same period in 2019 (R$869,373). This arises mainly from the following factors:

 

  § Recognition, in the 2Q19, of an estimated loss on realization of the receivables from Renova, in the amount of R$688,031, compared to R$37,361 in 2Q20.
  § Losses expected on doubtful receivables from customers 142.22% higher, at R$115,360 in 2Q20, compared to R$47,627 in 2Q19. This difference mainly reflects an exponential increase in default by clients in the Public Authorities category, and also, worsening of performance in the Residential and Industrial category, because the Covid-19 pandemic.

  § Provisions for employment-law legal actions amounting R$105,122 in 2Q2019, compared to provisions of R$23,375 in 2Q20. The difference was recognized for application of the IPCA-E inflation index instead of the TR reference rate in monetary adjustment for employment-law legal actions dealing with debts arising from March 25, 2015 to November 10, 2017. These are at the advanced execution phase and now have chances of loss assessed as ‘probable’. For further information, see Note 24.

 

Construction cost

 

Infrastructure construction costs in 2Q20 totaled R$373,405, or 40.32% higher than 2Q19 (R$266,107). This line records the Company’s investment in assets of the concession in the period, and is fully offset by the line Construction revenue, in the same amount.

 

Gas bought for resale

 

In 2Q20, the Company recorded an expense of R$231,378 on acquisition of gas, 29.92% less than its comparable expense of R$330,180 in the same period in 2019. This is basically due to volume of gas sold 14.61% lower (at 185,852m³ in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 217,646m³ in the same period of 2019).

 

Post-employment obligations

 

The Company’s post-retirement obligations in 2Q20 is R$118,322 and R$97,790 in 2019. This is mainly the result of higher in the discount rate used in the actuarial calculation – which increased the amount of the actuarial liabilities, and consequently the scale of the expense reported.

Asset held for sale impairment

 

The market conditions have deteriorated as a result of Covid-19 situation and, in such circumstances, the fair value of equity interest in Light decreased significantly. The Company recognized an impairment loss related to its equity interest in Light, classified as asset held for sale, in the amount of R$609,160 in 1Q20, which was reversed in 2Q20 due to the shares price recovery, resulting in a positive effect of R$475,137 on net income for 2Q20. For further information, see Note 32.

 

Share of profit (loss) of associates and joint ventures, net

 

The result of equity method valuation of interests in non-consolidated investees was a gain of R$82,534 in 2Q20, an increase of 127.52% compared to the same period of 2019, as a result, mainly, of the increase of 39.39% in the investee TAESA’s result, which was R$64,858 in the second quarter of 2019 and R$90,404 in same period of 2020.

 

The breakdown of the results from the investees recognized under this line is given in detail in Note 15.

Net financial revenue (expenses)

 

Cemig reports net financial expenses in 2Q20 of R$35,317, compared to net financial income of R$1,908,587 in the same period in 2019. The main factors are:

 

  § Recognition of the financial updating of PIS/Pasep and Cofins taxes credits over ICMS in the amount of R$1,553,112 in 2Q19 (see note n. 8).
  § The dollar appreciated by 5.33% against the Real in the 2Q20, compared to appreciation of (1.66%) in 2Q19. This resulted in negative effects on the principal of the Eurobond debt in both periods: R$415,950 in 2Q20, vs. R$96,750 in 2Q19.
  § In 2Q20, the variation in the fair value of the hedge instrument resulted in a gain of R$486,720, which was partially offset by the positive effect of R$70,770. In 2Q19, the variation in the fair value of the hedge instrument resulted in a gain of R$461,083, plus the positive debt exchange rate variation of R$96,750, which was partially offset by the positive effect of R$557,833. The higher figure was the result of the dollar future curve moving upward, resulting in both the call spread and the asset becoming more valuable; and also due to the curve for the future DI interest rate (the liability side of the transaction) moving downward.

 

For a breakdown of financial revenues and expenses please see Note 28.

 

Income tax and social contribution tax

 

In 2Q20, the expense on income and the Social Contribution taxes totaled R$483,986, on pre-tax profit of R$1,474,802, an effective rate of 31.67%. In the same period in 2019, the expense on income and the Social Contribution taxes was R$1,356,983, on pre-tax profit of R$3,471,969 an effective rate of 39.08%.

 

These effective rates are reconciled with the nominal tax rates in Note 9(c).

Corporate risk management and internal controls

 

As a part of Cemig’s corporate governance practices, corporate risk management overall objective is to build and maintain a structure capable of providing material information to senior management to support making of decisions, creating and protecting the company’s value. The process of risk management enables the risk of the business’s objectives to be managed effectively, making it possible to influence and align strategy and performance in all the areas of the company.

Av. Barbacena 1200     Santo Agostinho     30190-131 Belo Horizonte, MG      Brazil     Tel.: +55 31 3506-5024      Fax +55 31 3506-5025

This text is a translation, provided for information only. The original text in Portuguese is the legally valid version.

 

 

Since 2016 Cemig’s corporate risk management activity is subordinated to the office of the CEO. In 2019, a separate senior management unit, Compliance, Corporate Risks and Internal Controls, was created, bringing the processes of risk management and internal controls together under a single administration. This change underlines the intention to increase the synergy between these processes, and the independence from other processes – so as to supply senior management with independent information for decision-making, preserving the value of the company.

 

Thus, in 2019, the Executive Board and the Board of Directors approved the ‘Top Risks’ corporate risk matrix, for the years 2019/2020, which comprehends business such as Generation, Transmission, Distribution, Trading, Distributed Generation (‘Geração Distribuída’), Holding as well as ordinary business risks.

 

These risks, related to execution of strategy and scenarios, and also risks of conflicts of interest, fraud and corruption are under responsibility of the Chief Officers and they are monitored and reported periodically to the Management.

 

Each Chief Officer’s Department has responsibility for monitoring and managing the Company’s exposure to these risks as they relate to execution of strategy and scenarios, and also risks of conflicts of interest, fraud and corruption. The Chief Officers report on this monitoring periodically to senior management.

 

In 2019, the Company hired an expert consulting firm to support the review of internal control and risk matrix as well as to monitor periodically the execution and sufficiency of controls, analysis of failure/weakness and to support the remediation plans development and execution.

The matrix of internal controls is also revised and approved annually. The Risk Management and Internal Controls Unit tests and monitors the controls design. The internal audit, in its turn, monitors independently the internal control practices by testing control effectiveness. The conclusion of this assessment is reported periodically to the Board of Directors, the Audit Board, and the Audit Committee.

 

The internal controls provide reasonable assurance that errors and frauds that might cause an impact on the performance are detected and prevented, aimed at:

 

  § Operational effectiveness and efficiency
  § Reliable financial reporting
  § Compliance with laws, regulations and policies.

The controls linked to mitigation of risks associated with preparation and publication of the financial statements are a part of Cemig’s Risks and Internal Controls Matrix. The financial statements are issued in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Law and the rules of the US Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), included as part of the annual 20-F Report filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Cemig obtained the first certification of its internal controls for the business year of 2006, filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on July 23, 2007.

 

Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Professional Conduct

 

On May 11, 2004 Cemig’s Board of Directors approved the Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Professional Conduct, which aims to orient and discipline everyone acting in the name of, or interacting with, Cemig, to ensure ethical behavior at all times, and always in accordance with the law and regulations. The code can be seen at http://ri.cemig.com.br. It was updated in 2018 and in 2019 to comply with the laws n. 12,486/2013 and n. 13,303/2016. Annually, the Company provide training on Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Professional Conduct for all its employees.

 

The Ethics Committee

 

This was created on August 12, 2004, and is responsible for coordinating action in relation to management (interpretation, publicizing, application and updating) of the Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Professional Conduct, including assessment of and decision on any possible non-compliances with Cemig’s Code of Ethics.

 

The Committee has eight sitting members. It may be contacted through our Ethics Channel – the anonymous reporting channel on the corporate Intranet, or by email, internal or external letter or by an exclusive phone line – these means of communication are widely publicized internally to all staff. These channels enable both reports of adverse activity and also consultations. Reports may result in opening of proceedings to assess any non-compliances with Cemig’s Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Professional Conduct.

 

The Ethics Channel

 

Cemig installed this means of communication, available on the internal corporate Intranet, in December 2006.

 

Through it the Ethics Committee can receive anonymous reports or accusations that can enable Cemig to detect irregular practices that are contrary to its interest, such as: financial fraud, including adulteration, falsification or suppression of financial, tax or accounting documents; misappropriation of goods or funds; receipt of undue advantages by managers or employees; irregular contracting; and other practices considered to be illegal.

It is one more step in improving Cemig’s transparency, compliance with legislation, and alignment with best corporate governance practices. It improves the management of internal controls and dissemination of the ethical culture to Cemig’s employees in the cause of optimum compliance by our business.

 

Anti-fraud Policy

 

In its business and activities, Cemig does not accept the practice and concealment of acts of fraud or corruption in all its forms. Suspicions and allegations of such acts are rigorously assessed and where proven, apply disciplinary procedures set out in the internal rules of the Company, as well as lawsuits and criminal charges, when applicable.

 

Thus, in 2012, Cemig consolidated its Anti-Fraud Policy is applicable to all members of the Board of Directors and Fiscal Officers, employees and contractors. The policy underscores the Company's commitment to the Global Compact principles on the subject, particularly the principle of number ten, which deals with combating corruption in all its forms, including extortion and bribery.

Our results are published through presentations transmitted via video webcast and telephone conference calls, with simultaneous translation in English, always with members of the Executive Board present, developing a relationship that is increasingly transparent and in keeping with best corporate government practices.

 

To serve our shareholders – who are spread over more than 40 countries – and to facilitate optimum coverage of investors, Cemig has been present in and outside Brazil at a very large number of events, including seminars, conferences, investor meetings, congresses, roadshows, and events such as Money Shows; as well as holding phone and video conference calls with analysts, investors and others interested in the capital markets.

 

At the end of May 2019, we held our 24rd Annual Meeting with the Capital Markets, in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais – where market professionals had the opportunity to interact with the Company’s directors and principal executives.

Cemig’s preferred and common shares (tickers: CMIG4 and CMIG3 respectively) have been listed at Corporate Governance Level 1 on the São Paulo Stock Exchange since 2001. This classification represents a guarantee to our shareholders of optimum reporting of information, and also that shareholdings are relatively widely dispersed. Because Cemig has ADRs (American Depositary Receipts) listed on the New York Stock Exchange, representing its preferred (PN) shares (ticker CIG) and common (ON) shares (ticker CIG.C), it is also subject to the regulations of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual. Our preferred shares have also been listed on the Latibex of the Madrid stock exchange (with ticker XCMIG) since 2002.

 

In June 11, 2018 an Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders approved alterations to the Company’s bylaws, to maintain best corporate governance practices, and adapt to Law 13,303/2016 (also known as the State Companies Law).

Independent Auditor’s Review Report on Quarterly Information - ITR

 

To the Shareholders and Management of

 

Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais - CEMIGBelo Horizonte - MG

 

Introduction

 

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information, contained in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) of Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais - CEMIG (the “Company”), for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, comprising the statements of financial position as at June 30, 2020, and the related statements of profit or loss, of comprehensive income for the three and six month periods then ended, and of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.

 

Management is responsible for preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with Accounting Pronouncement NBC TG 21 – Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the fair presentation of this information in conformity with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information Form (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

 

Scope of review

 

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review engagements (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

 

226

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information

 

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the quarterly information referred to above are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34, applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information Form (ITR), and presented consistently with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM).

 

Emphasis of matters

 

Risks related to compliance with laws and regulations

 

As mentioned in Note 15 to the individual and consolidated interim financial information, currently investigations and other legal measures are being conducted by public authorities in connection with the Company and certain investees regarding certain expenditures and their allocations, which involve and also include some of its other shareholders and certain executives of the Company and of these other shareholders. The governance bodies of the Company have authorized engaging a specialized company to analyze the internal procedures related to these certain investments and to ascertain such claims. The internal and independent investigation was completed, and the corresponding report was delivered on May 8, 2020, with the conclusion that no evidence has been identified to support the preliminarily investigated allegations. Thus far, it is not possible to predict future developments arising from investigations conducted by public authorities, or their possible impact on the interim financial information of the Company and its subsidiaries. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

 

Risk regarding the ability of jointly-controlled entity Renova Energia S.A. to continue as a going concern

 

As disclosed in Note 15 to the individual and consolidated interim financial information, on December 17, 2019, under the terms of Law No. 11101/05, the jointly-controlled entity Renova Energia S.A. and some of its subsidiaries filed its first court-supervised reorganization plan, and on July 7,2020 two others reorganization plans were filed. The reorganization plan of the jointly-controlled entity is still in progress on the second State of São Paulo Bankruptcy and Court-Supervised Reorganization Court. The jointly-controlled entity shall submit the court-supervised reorganization plan to the General Meeting of Creditors approval in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the referred Law. The jointly-controlled entity is in the process of discussing such plan and up to the present date has not measured the possible effects on its accounting balances. In addition, the jointly-controlled entity has incurred recurring losses and, as at June 30, 2020, has negative net working capital, equity deficit and negative gross margin. These events or conditions indicate the existence of relevant uncertainty that may raise significant doubt about the ability of this jointly-controlled entity to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other matters

 

Statements of value added

 

The above mentioned quarterly information include the individual and consolidated statements of value added (SVA) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, prepared under Company’s Management responsibility and presented as supplementary information by IAS 34. These statements have been subjected to review procedures performed together with the review of the quarterly information with the objective to conclude whether they are reconciled to the interim financial information and the accounting records, as applicable, and if its format and content are in accordance with the criteria set forth by NBC TG 09 – Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that they were not prepared, in all material respects, consistently with the overall individual and consolidated interim financial information.

Following success in court action,

Cemig D files proposal for early return of ICMS tax to customers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cemig (Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais – listed and traded on the exchanges of São Paulo, New York and Madrid), hereby informs the CVM (Brazilian Securities Commission), the São Paulo stock exchange (B3) and the market in general as follows:

 

 

 

Administrative appeals have been filed with Brazil’s electricity regulator, Aneel (National Electricity Agency), contesting Aneel’s award of an annual tariff increase of 4.27% to Cemig’s wholly-owned distribution subsidiary Cemig D, in effect from May 28, 2020.

The appeals request annulment of the tariff increase, and restitution to Cemig D’s customers of the amounts of the escrow deposits repaid by the Courts to Cemig D on February 13, 2020.

 

This repayment of escrow deposits is the result of the Supreme Court judgment in favor of Cemig D, against which there is no further appeal, in Cemig D’s legal action (‘the Action’) against the tax authority, which requested – and won – a ruling that amounts of the ICMS tax paid or to be paid by Cemig D must be excluded from the base amount for calculation of PIS, Pasep and Cofins tax payable by Cemig D.

The current administrative appeals request creation of a negative financial component in the calculation of Cemig D’s annual tariff adjustment.

Aneel has given Cemig D the right of reply, and, based on internal assessments and those of its legal advisers, Cemig D has today submitted to Aneel a proposal for bringing forward Cemig D’s already-planned restitution to its customers of a total amount of R$ 714.4 million – corresponding to part of the funds released by the courts due to Cemig’s success in the Action.

This proposal by Cemig D takes into consideration the wholly exceptional context caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, and Cemig’s responsibility to carry out its social function and its duties to the community in which it operates, the rights and interests of which it is obliged loyally to respect and serve (under Article 16, §1 of Law 6404/76).

Cemig D’s proposal is also an important contribution to keeping tariffs at reasonable levels, at a moment when all economic agents are seeking measures that can reduce the impacts of the pandemic.

 

 

Cemig’s offer is also an anticipation of the effects, and treatment in terms of regulations – which are yet to be defined in detail by the tax authorities and Aneel – of the Supreme Court’s decision in the Action. These regulatory decisions will be applied equally to all electricity distribution concessions through an Aneel Normative Ruling, which will be issued after conclusion of Public Consultation 005/2020 – during which there will be discussion on the merits, and in which Cemig will be able to take part in a wide-ranging discussion on the subject.

 

 

Cemig emphasizes that the portion of the credits that it proposes to repay to its customers has already been posted as a liability in its financial statements.

Thus, in the event that Aneel, in its decision on the administrative appeals mentioned above, accepts Cemig D’s proposal, the decision reported in this notice will not cause any impact on Cemig’s profit or financial results.

 

Cemig also notes that the Council of Aneel will also carry out its own analysis and decision on the proposal.

MARKET NOTICE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moody’s upgrades Cemig’s ratings, maintains outlook positive

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cemig (Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais – listed and traded on the exchanges of São Paulo, New York and Madrid), hereby informs the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), the São Paulo stock exchange (B3) and the market in general as follows:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  1) The risk rating agency Moody’s América Latina (‘Moody’s’) has upgraded its ratings for Cemig and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Cemig Distribuição S.A. (‘Cemig D’) and Cemig Geração e Transmissão S.A. (‘Cemig GT’):

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  - on the global scale: from B1 to Ba3;
  - and from on the Brazilian scale: from Baa1.br to A1.br.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moody’s maintains its outlook positive for all three companies.

 

These increases of one ‘notch’ on the global scale and 3 notches on the Brazilian scale reflect Moodys’ perception of an overall improvement in Cemig’s liquidity profile, with effective strategies for reduction of costs and leverage.

 

 

  2) On July 10, 2020, Standard & Poor’s revised its outlook for Cemig and its wholly-owned subsidiaries to positive, also reflecting stronger metrics of credit and liquidity.

 

 

 

 

Cemig believes the changes made by these rating agencies are a recognition of its efforts to improve its credit quality, and reiterates its commitment to improving its liquidity and capital structure through lengthening of its debt profile, strategic management of liabilities, and reduction of its cost of capital.
