COPEL’S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR OF 2006

In reply to your Official Letter 0213-07 of February 21, 2007, in which you asked for clarification on the information published in today’s edition of Gazeta Mercantil that Copel had recorded a net income of R$ 1.1 billion in 2006, we would respectfully draw your attention to our Notice to the Market, published on February 14, 2007, in which we stated that our financial statements for 2006 had not yet been concluded or audited.

The number in question, quoted by the Governor of the State of Paraná as representing Copel’s net income in 2006, is based on the estimates of several market analysts, widely published via the usual channels in recent months.

However, our final results, duly audited, will only be filed with the responsible bodies and disclosed to the market on March 27 next after the Bovespa closes.

Our 2006 results conference call will be held on March 29.

We remain at your disposal for any further information.

Sincerely,


Paulo Roberto Trompczynski
CFO and Investor Relations Officer
