Adjusted EBITDA totaled R$ 1,483.8 million, R$ 60.9 million less than the R$ 1,544.7 million recorded in 1Q19.

The main highlights of 1Q20 results were:

In 1Q20, expenses with exchange variations on loans and financing increased by R$ 1,796.3 million.

In addition to the effect on financial expenses, there was an impact on the allowance for doubtful accounts, in the amount of R$ 149.7 million.

 

 

b)   Operation in the municipality of Santo André

In 1Q20, the R$ 3.2 million decrease was due to: (i) the R$ 44.9 million decrease in healthcare  expenses; and (ii) the R$ 8.9 million decrease with pension plans, as a result of changes in the actuarial assumptions.

The decreases were partially offset by the R$ 47.1 million increase, mainly the 4.99% salary adjustment in May 2019 and the application of 2.0% referring to the Career and Salaries Plan (Plano de Cargos e Salários) in February 2020.

Increase of R$ 8.3 million, due to:

·        R$ 7.6 million decrease in interest and charges on domestic loans and financing, mainly due to  the reduction of the DI rate and the long-term interest rate in 1Q20 (3.65% and 5.09%, respectively), compared to 1Q19 (6.40% and 7.03%, respectively);

·        R$ 6.7 million increase in interest and charges on international loans and financing, as a result of:

(i)   higher appreciation of the Dollar against the Real in 1Q20, compared to the appreciation recorded in 1Q19 (29.0% and 0.6%, respectively); and (ii) appreciation of the Yen against the Real in 1Q20, compared to the depreciation recorded in 1Q19 (30.1% and -0.2%, respectively);

·        R$ 5.1 million decrease in other financial expenses, as a result of lower recognition of interest on lawsuits, in the amount of R$ 5.0 million; and

·        R$ 14.3 million decrease in financial income, mostly from the lower yield on financial investments in 1Q20, due to the reduction in the remuneration of the DI rate.

The historical series is presented since 2014, based on quarterly accounting data released by the  Company, excluding some non-recurring and significant events that would distort the result.

In order to check the behavior of the period on a same price basis, all indicators were calculated on average values for 1Q20, adjusted by the variation of the Amplified Consumer Price Index (IPCA).

Gross revenue per billed cubic meter shows average growth, especially after 3Q15. 1Q20 shows higher results than 1Q19.

Operating expenses per billed cubic meter increased in a controlled manner, compatible with the expansion of the operations, quarter over quarter, showing flat average behavior and disciplined management of costs.
