5.1. Payroll and benefits

 

In 2013 payroll and benefits grew R$ 188.3 million or 10.8%, from R$ 1,738.9 million to R$ 1,927.2 million, due to the following:

 

·         6.17% increase in wages since May 2012 and of 8.0% since May 2013 related to the implementation of the Company’s new career and wage plan, with an impact of approximately R$ 125.0 million;

·         R$ 38.0 million upturn in the provision for the Defined Benefit Plan, arising from changes in actuarial assumptions; and

·         R$ 11.0 million increase in meal expenses, mainly due to the 13.6% adjustment on meal voucher in May 2013, settled in the collective bargaining agreement.

In 4Q13 payroll and benefits grew R$ 22.1 million or 4.8%, due to:

·         8.0% increase in wages since May 2013, with an impact of approximately R$ 26.9 million;

·         Provision for the Defined Benefit Plan in the amount of R$ 7.7 million, arising from changes in actuarial assumptions; and

·         R$ 4.6 million increase in meal expenses, mainly due to the 13.6% adjustment on meal voucher in May 2013, settled in the collective bargaining agreement.

The above-mentioned increases were partially offset by the R$ 15.6 million decrease, resulting from the increased adherence of employees who requested retirement and the approval of Law 12,506/11, which changes notice from 30 to 90 days in case of dismissal without cause in 2012.

 

5.2. Supplies

 

In 2013, expenses with supplies increased by R$ 11.6 million or 6.4%, when compared to the previous year, from R$ 181.8 million to R$ 193.4 million, mostly due to:

 

·         Preventive and corrective maintenance in several water and sewage systems, in the amount of R$ 5.2 million;

 

 

Page 4 of 14


 
 

 

 

·         Acquisition of supplies for maintenance and renovation in several operating areas of the São Paulo Metropolitan Region, in the amount of R$ 2.1 million; and

Treatment supplies expenses in 2013 were R$ 63.2 million or 35.6% higher than in 2012, from R$ 177.5 million to R$ 240.7 million. The main factors for this variation were:

·           Aluminum polychloride, a suitable product for high flows, in the amount R$ 13.8 million, essentially in the Guaraú Water Treatment Station (WTS) with an increase of 28.3% in consumption and an upturn of 47.5% in the average cost;

·         Iron sulfate in the amount of R$ 7.4 million, replacing aluminum polychloride and iron chloride at the Rodolfo Costa e Silva and Rio Grande WTS, for pricing conditions;

·         Hydrogen peroxide in the amount of R$ 7.0 million, as a result of the proliferation of algae and odor at the sewage pumping stations in the Baixada Santista region;

·         Sodium hypochlorite in the amount of R$ 6.4 million, as it was used gas to replace chlorine due to its increased efficiency and safety, used in untreated water in the Rio Grande WTS and several water treatment stations in the countryside and the coastal; and

·         Increase of R$ 12.6 million in the consumption of several products, such as: (i) odor neutralizer in the Lavapés and Itatiba Sewage Treatment Stations (STS), in the amount of R$ 4.1 million; (ii) lime resulting from the need for increased alkalinization in the Cubatão and Rodolfo Costa e Silva WTS, in the amount of R$ 3.8 million; (iii) aluminum sulfate, due to the decline in the quality of untreated water in the Taiaçupeba and Casa Grande WTS, in the amount of R$ 3.1 million;  and (iv) activated carbon, in the amount of R$ 1.6 million, due to watershed and climate conditions.

5.4. Services

 

In 2013 this item grew R$ 36.7 million or 3.4%, from R$ 1,075.5 million to R$ 1,112.2 million. The main factors were:

·         Preventive and corrective maintenance in the water and sewage systems in the amount of R$ 11.3 million;

·         Environmental compensation with beach recovery services, in the amount of R$ 9.4 million, due to the public-interest civil action in the cost area;

·         Hiring of consultancy, advisory and specialized services, with a R$ 7.3 million increase, mainly comprising: diagnosis of the first sewage connection, dissemination of the Se Liga na Rede (“Connect to the Network”) program, streamlining of the sewage collection system of the sewersheds and implementation of a new technology to supply consumers in the São Paulo Metropolitan Region;

·         Expenses with risk contracts for credit recovery, in the amount of R$ 6.9 million. As a result of these contracts, collection initiatives generated an increase of R$ 89.3 million in revenue in 2013;

·         Sludge transportation and disposal in the amount of R$ 5.0 million; and

·         Hydrometer reading and bill delivery expenses in the amount of R$ 4.8 million, as a result of the new contracts with services expansion, such as: property inspections, service requests, analysis of outstanding debt and revision of bills.

Services recorded the following decreases:

·         Advertising campaigns in the amount of R$ 29.4 million; and

·         Revision of provision in the amount of R$ 20.5 million, due to the end of the agreement settled with the São Paulo Municipal Government.

 

5.5. Electric power

 

This item decreased R$ 37.1 million, or 6.3%, from R$ 590.0 million in 2012 to R$ 552.9 million in 2013, mainly due to the average decrease of 55.1% in the Tariff for the Use of Distribution System (TUSD), as a consequence of Provisional Presidential Decree 579/12 and Law 12,783/13. The reduction in TUSD was partially offset by the average increase of 5.6% in the free market tariffs and the higher consumption in 2013.

 

5.6. General expenses

 

General expenses grew by R$ 23.5 million or 3.4%, from R$ 687.5 million in 2012 to R$ 711.0 million in 2013, due to the following:

·         R$ 21.2 million in expropriation expenses, chiefly due to the fulfillment of the commitments to the municipality of Paraguaçu Paulista; and

·         R$ 20.5 million in provision related to the transfer to the municipal fund, pursuant to the Service Agreement with the São Paulo Municipal Government, as a result of the increase in revenues.

The increases mentioned above were partially offset by the R$ 14.2 million decrease in expenses for lawsuits.

 

5.7. Depreciation and amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization increased R$ 132.6 million or 18.0%, from R$ 738.5 million in 2012 to R$ 871.1 million in 2013, due to the transfer of works to the operating intangible asset, in the amount of R$ 1.5 billion.

 

5.8. Credit write-offs

 

Credit write-offs decreased R$ 88.3 million, from R$ 192.2 million in 2012 to R$ 103.9 million in 2013, chiefly due to:

 

·         Additional provision held in 2012, in the amount of R$ 49.5 million, for overdue agreements with private clients (R$ 14.4 million) and public state entities (R$ 35.1 million); and

·         Higher recoveries, through agreements for payment in installments, with an increase of R$ 39.5 million.

 

5.9. Tax expenses

 

In 2013, there was an increase of R$ 7.3 million or 10.7%, chiefly due to ARSESP’s Regulation, Control and Inspection Fee, following the upturn in Net Operating Revenue.

6. Other operating revenues and expenses

 

6.1. Other operating revenues

 

Recorded a R$ 11.4 million decrease, mainly due to an upturn in imposed fines, supplier guarantees and the selling of obsolete assets in 2012.

 

6.2. Other operating expenses

 

R$ 37.4 million decrease, as a result of the provision for losses regarding the indemnification of the assets related to the concession in the municipality of Diadema, recognized in 2012, in the amount of R$ 60.3 million. This decrease was offset by the R$ 17.8 million increase in the write-off of assets, due to the replacement of old water and sewage connections with new ones.

7.1.1. Financial expenses

 

Financial expenses dropped R$ 12.3 million or 2.4%. The main reason was the decrease in interest and charges on domestic loans and financing, in the amount of R$ 10.0 million, mainly due to: (i) the amortization of the Banco do Brasil loan in 2013, in the amount of R$ 380.4 million; and (ii) the reduction in the interest spread resulting from the debt swap for the 17th debenture issue in February 2013 and the early settlement of the balance of the 11th debenture issue in March 2013.

 

 

7.1.2. Financial revenues

 

Financial revenues increased by R$ 34.3 million or 12.9%, due to: (i) interest over installment agreements; and (ii) interest recognized between the issue and subscription dates of the 17th and 18th debentures.

7.2.1. Monetary variation on liabilities

The effect on the monetary variation on liabilities in 2013 was R$ 254.2 million or 221.6% higher than in 2012, specially:

 

·         Increase of R$ 217.3 million in expenses of exchange rate variation over loans and financing, mainly deriving from  the higher appreciation of the US Dollar versus Brazilian Real in 2013 of 14.6%, when compared to the 8.9% appreciation in 2012; partially offset by the depreciation of the Japanese Yen versus Brazilian Real of 5.9% in 2013, compared to a 2.4% depreciation in 2012; and

·         R$ 38.1 million increase in monetary variation expenses over domestic loans and financing, as a result of the 17th and 18th debenture issue, in February and December 2013, respectively.

 

7.2.2. Monetary variation on assets

 

Monetary variation on assets increased by R$ 20.1 million, chiefly due to inflation adjustment on installments agreements held in 2013.

 

8. Income tax and social contribution

Income tax and social contribution expenses increased by R$ 96.3 million, due to increase in the taxable income  in the period.

 

 

9. Indicators


9.1. Operating

 

The water loss ratio continued falling and closed 2013 at 24.4%. In regard of the use of water resources, it is important to stress the decline in real losses (water physically lost, which corresponds to around 65% of the micromeasurement loss ratio), from 22.2% to 20.3% from December 2008 to December 2013. Since 2009, the Corporate Program for Reduction of Water Losses, designed to achieve a billing water loss ratio of 18% in 2020, had received R$ 1.5 billion in investments since 2009 out of the planned amount of R$ 5.9 billion by 2020. In 2013 alone, the Company invested R$ 424 million.

Production volume edged down by 0.2% despite the 1.7% increase in the population served.

10. Loans and financing

  

At the end of 2013, the Company’s total debt came to approximately R$ 9.5 billion, 39.1% of which denominated in foreign currency. Most of the debt denominated in foreign currency was taken out with international financing institutions, with long maturity terms, amortization schedule diluted in time and low interest rates.

Sabesp uses its own and third-party funds to finance its investment plan, and most of the Company’s debt (60.2%) was contracted with official national and international government agencies and multilateral organisms at a low cost and with long terms. Funds are also raised in the national and international capital market, preferably to manage debt.

Regarding funding for capex, in December 2013, as part of Selection 2012-2013 of the Ministry of Cities, we entered into an agreement totaling R$ 415 million to expand catchment and operating capacity at the Guaraú Water Treatment Station and to implement the R3 Tunnel Reservoir of the same WTS, part of the  the Metropolitan Water Program. The total term for this contract is up to 144 months, with a grace period of 36 months and yielding the TJLP long-term interest rate + 1.66 p.a.
