See further information on the subsidiaries, jointly-controlled entities and affiliates in Notes 3 and 18; and on transactions between related parties in Note 32. Management has assessed the capacity of the Company to continue as a going concern, and believes that its operations will generate sufficient future cash flows to enable continuity of its businesses. In addition, Management is not aware of any material uncertainties that could generate significant doubts about its ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, these financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Disposal of interest and control of Light On July 17, 2019, Light completed a public offering for initial and secondary distribution of its nominal, book-entry common shares without par value, all free of any liens or encumbrances, carried out in accordance with the procedures of Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) Instruction 476 of January 16, 2009. In the Public Offering, Light placed: (i) 100,000,000 new shares (‘the Primary Offering’), consequently increasing its share capital; and (ii) 33,333,333 shares owned by the Company at the price of R$ 18.75 per share. With the settlement of the restricted offering, the Company’s equity interest in the total share capital of Light was reduced from 49.99% to 22.58%, limiting its voting rights in Shareholders’ Meetings and, as a result, its ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee. Thus, as from that date, the Company no longer has power that gives it control of this investee. In accordance with IFRS 10 – Consolidated financial statements, the investee is no longer considered a subsidiary, and therefore it is no longer consolidated. Since the Company continues to have a firm commitment to dispose of the remaining interest in Light, the investment continues to be classified as an asset held for sale, in accordance with IFRS 5 – Non-current assets held for sale, and discontinued operations.
