Hidrocantábrico was equity consolidated (19% × 50%) for the first five months of 2002 (through May 30, 2002). From June until September 2002 it was proportionally consolidated in accordance with EDP's stake in its holding company Adygesinval (40%).

Bandeirante's 9M2001 figures in this section corresponds to the first eight months of 2001.

EDP Group's revenues for the 9M2002 amounted to €4,650.0 million increasing 17.0% relative to the 9M2001. However, such performance was not verified at EBITDA level due to a decrease in EDP Distribuição?s gross margin, following the 2002 regulatory review, and a decline from Bandeirante's contribution to the Group's consolidated operating results, attributable to a large extent to the Real devaluation against the Euro and a reduction in the company's gross margin.

EDP's domestic generation business, EDP Produção, is the largest contributor to the Group's EBITDA and EBIT. EDP Produção's performance continues to reflect both its management focus in improving margins and in maintaining the company's operating costs within best-practice levels and also the stable nature of the PPA contracts to which the majority of its installed capacity is bound.

In the domestic distribution business, despite the increase in EDP Distribuição's revenues, EBITDA and EBIT decreased during the period. This is largely attributable to ERSE's imposed cuts to the Use of the Distribution Grid (URD) and commercialisation tariffs (Credes and CSEP) following the last regulatory review, which was effective from January 2002.

Bandeirante has suffered from the adverse effect on consumption habits caused by Brazilian electricity-rationing programme (started on June 4, 2001 and ended on February 28, 2002), although with positive signs pointing to an upward trend in the last quarter. Bandeirante's contribution to EDP's results, however positive, was affected by the sharp devaluation of the Brazilian currency against the Euro. Bandeirante's EBITDA in Euro terms fell 32.6% to €57.1 million, comparing with the accumulated figure until September 2001 (see note 2).

Telecoms revenues have more than doubled from the 9M2001 and ONI's contribution to EDP consolidated EBITDA, however negative, has improved markedly by approximately €20.4 million.

Bandeirante's 9M2001 figures in this section corresponds to the first eight months of 2001.

Operating investment totalled €720.2 million in the 9M2002, almost two times the 9M2001 figure. This increase reflects the investments made by EDP Produção, EDP Distribuição and Oni and also to the fact that we are including as Group capex 40% of Hidrocantábrico's investments in 9M2002.

Regarding EDP Produção, the new TER CCGT and the expansion of the Venda Nova hydro power plant, accounted for €105.6 million and €11.1 million respectively of this company's 9M2002 operating investment.

As for EDP Distribuição, the €169.9 million investment made during the first nine months of 2002 was mostly focused on the distribution network. Additionally, €42.8 million refer to an intra-group asset transfer that was not a cash-outflow for the Group.

The largest contributor to the Group 9M2002 capex was Oni with €219.4 million investment mostly focused on the mobile operations (70% of ONI's total capex).

The inclusion of 40% of Hidrocantábrico's capex in the 9M2002 amounted to €56.5 million, which is mostly related to the construction of the Castejón CCGT that accounted for €52.4 million of the company's total investment, and also reflects the expansion to Madrid, Alicante and Valencia markets.

By the end of September 2002, EDP Group's total financial debt amounted to €7,567.2 million, up 27.6% and 30.5% from September 2001 and YE2001. This increase is mostly due to the consolidation of EDP's 40% stake in Adygesinval, which has a total debt of €2,014 million, from which €904 million belong to Hidrocantábrico. Between June and September of 2002, the amount of debt held at the holding level, which represents approximately 74% of EDP Group's external debt, increased €808.7 million or 16.9%, reflecting the financing of EDP's equity stake in Adygesinval, amounting to €784 millions.

Oni and the Brazilian subsidiaries are responsible for about €644.2 million and €321.1 million respectively of EDP's consolidated debt. By the end of September, Bandeirante's debt amounted to €215.7 million. We recall that Bandeirante is entitled to receive, through a special loan contracted with BNDES (which interest is a pass-trough to the final tariff), 90% of the approved recovery for the rationing losses and "Parcela A" costs, or R$306 million. This amount is to be received in three slices: the first one, of R$75.9 million, was received in February 2002; the second one, of R$184.3 million was received in September 2002; the last one should be received until the end of this year. Relative to 1H2002 figures, Bandeirante's debt increased by €110 million, thus reflecting the receiving of the second slice of this contracted loan.

Most of EDP Produção's external debt concerns the development of two cogeneration plants: €42 million relate to a 50MW cogeneration facility developed by Soporgen and another €10 million relate to a 44MW plant awarded to Energin. Furthermore, the expansion of Enernova activities, our wind farm developer, accounts for €15 million of our debt.

In the 9M2002, energy sent out to the transmission network totalled 30,038 GWh, which represents a growth of 2.0% when compared with the 9M2001. Due to the low rainfall recorded until September 2002 (hydro coefficient of 0.50 vs. 1.40 in 9M2001) thermal generation increased at the expense of hydro generation. Consequently, the contribution from EDP Produção's hydro power stations to the total energy produced in the Public Electricity System (PES) declined while the emission from its thermal power plants, as well as from the two IPPs Pego and Turbogás, increased.

The 14.0% decrease in EDP Produção's net emission had limited impact on the company's financial statements given that a large part of its generation capacity is bound to the PES under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) which i) guarantee producers a fixed component (Capacity Charge) based on the contracted availability with the PES regardless of the energy produced; ii) permit the pass-through to the final tariff of total fuel costs by means of a variable component (Energy Charge) that is invoiced monthly to REN.

EDP Produção's electricity sales amounted to €1,078.0 million, an increase of 17.6% compared with the 9M2001. This increase was due to i) a €128.3 million growth in the PPA's Energy Charge which compensates EDP Produção's power stations, operating in the PES, for the higher fuel utilization, hence higher fuel costs, incurred in the 9M2002; ii) a €15.3 million growth in the PPA's Capacity Charge mostly attributable to an higher than last year's availability factor in CPPE's hydro power plants (12 mths. avg. verified availability / 12 mths. avg. contracted availability).

Regarding fuel costs, the €123.9 million increase from the 9M2001 figure reflect i) the general rise in fuel prices, the effects of which were not yet felt in the 9M2001; ii) the higher fuel utilization, associated with a greater recourse to thermal generation in what was a typical dry year; and iii) the increased weight of fuel-oil (more expensive) in the fuel consumption mix of EDP Produção.

The improvement in EDP Produção's gross margin is explained not only by the higher availability of CPPE's hydro power plants but also due to the fact that EDP Produção managed to increase the efficiency of its fuel procurement activity and has acquired coal in the 9M2002 at below the EU coal price index (used as the PPA Energy Charge's benchmark by which CPPE is paid for the acquisition of coal). This is reflected in the €15.8 million difference between CPPE fuel costs and the PPA Energy Charge in the 9M2002.

In the 9M2002 outside supplies and services provided by non-group companies was 7.4% higher than the 9M2001 figure. Given the seasonality of the maintenance works on EDP Produção's power plants, which were heavily concentrated in the last three months of 2001, we are taking into account for analysis purposes 75% of the YE2001 cost (75% × €25.3 million) as a proxy for a yearly comparison. Therefore, by adjusting maintenance costs, this item would have fallen by around 29% instead of the 8.7% rise versus the 9M2001, meaning a decrease around 9% in the total outside supplies and services provided by non-group companies.

Following the creation of EDP Produção in the 2Q2001 a new accounting and information management system based on the SAP platform was implemented and, in light of the personnel relocation associated to this restructuring process, the Human Resources module took some time to become stable. Thus, for analysis purposes, we are opting to compare the 9M2002 figures with 75% of YE2001 figures, which we believe are a proxy to last year's 9M2001 personnel costs. As such, total personnel cost rose 6.6%, relative to 75% of the year-end's figure, to €90.8 million. When corrected for early-retirements, pension premiums (which are offset against a provision at the holding company level) and other costs associated with non-active workers, personnel costs increased 0.9%. This growth is fundamentally attributable to: i) the reduction of EDP Produção's workforce by 60 people between the 9M2001 and the 9M2002; ii) which was not enough to offset the effect of the 2002 salary increase of 3.4%.

EDP Produção's EBITDA increased 4.5% from €568.6 million in the 9M2001 to €594.2 million in the 9M2002. Regarding capex, the substantial increase from last year's amount relates to the continuation of works in increasing the installed capacity of Venda Nova hydro power plant (PES), an investment of €11.1 million in the 9M2002, and the beginning of construction of the new TER CCGT power plant (NBES), an investment of €105.6 million in the 9M2002. This increase was partly offset by the conclusion, in the beginning of 2002, of the Soporgen and Energin plants, two co-generation plants 82% and 65% owned by EDP.

The current installed capacity of Venda Nova is 90 MW. By September 2004 two additional 94 MW groups are planed to start operating under the current PPA. Total investment in increasing Venda Nova's capacity (at technical costs) is expected to be in the order of €139.0 million of which €60.4 million has already been made.

The new TER CCGT comprises three 400 MW groups that will start operating in the beginning of 2004, end of 2004 and end of 2006. Out of the total planned investment (at technical costs), which amounts to €675.0 million (or €478.0 million for the first two groups), €167.5 million has already been made.

By the end of the 3Q2002, total energy distributed in Portugal reached 27,744 GWh, which represents an annual growth of 3.5% in electricity consumption. Of the total electricity distributed in the country 97.9%, or 27,168 GWh, was sold through the PES, the binding system, and the balance, or 576 GWh, was distributed in the non-binding system.

Consumption in the PES grew 2.7% during the period largely due to the increase in sales across all low voltage segments: public lighting up 7.5%, low voltage up 3.8% and special low voltage up 2.9%. In the non-binding system, EDP achieved a 68.3% market share with 393 GWh of electricity sold to its 79 customers that have opted to be supplied in the liberalized market.

Ending September, total electricity clients reached 5,637,705, representing a 2.4% annual growth. Considering the new eligibility threshold defined by ERSE in January 2002 (all consumers except low voltage became eligible), the number of eligible clients reached 20,551, from which 134 were acquiring energy in the market system.

According to ERSE's regulatory framework for the years 2002 to 2004, a proxy to EDP Distribuição's gross profit can be calculated by adding the allowed (or regulated) revenues for the Use of the Distribution Grid (URD), which varies with the amount of electricity that flows through the distribution network, and the allowed (or regulated) revenues for both commercialization activities: the Network Services (CRedes) and the Supply in the Public System (CSEP). The figures presented in the table below adjust ERSE's published URD regulated revenues, set for the year 2002, to the electricity that flowed through EDP Distribuição's network during the first nine months of 2002.

Until June 2002 these revenues were accounted for under "Services Provided". As such, for comparasion purposes the figures presented include the amount accounted for under that item (€1.7 million for the 9M2001; €4.2 million for the 9M2002)

EDP Distribuição's total revenues are obtained by adding to the regulated revenues of its activities, the cost of electricity purchases. This cost, which is a complete pass-through to the final tariff, encompasses the generation costs, the transmission costs and the global use of the system costs and is also subject to ERSE's approval and regulation. Total Electricity Revenues increased 7.1% during the period, to €2,587.8 million, from which €7.4 million were originated in the non-binding system. In addition, regarding the energy sold by the other suppliers operating in the NBES (183 GWh during the period), EDP Distribuição is entitled to receive the tariff for the Use of the Distribution Grid (URD) and the Network Services (Credes) tariff.

Gross profit before the 2000 tariff reposition fell by around 6.3% in comparison with last year's, mostly due to the sharp decrease in the tariffs charged for the Use of the Distribution Grid and for EDP Distribuição's commercial activities.

Despite the substantial increase in EDP Distribuição's insurance costs, outside supplies and services provided by non-Group companies have decreased by €8.7 million or 8.7% between the third quarter of 2001 and the third quarter of 2002. This decrease reflects the renegotiation of some maintenance contracts and the fact that last year's figure for this item was magnified by the adverse weather conditions that forced EDP to incur in additional outsourced maintenance.

The positive performance of this operating cost item gives evidence of the good results arising from the implementation in EDP Distribuição of the Efficiency cost-cutting programme which targets a reduction in both outside supplies and services and technical materials (which have also decreased during the period).

EDP Distribuição's personnel costs rose 5.4% relative to the same period last year to €289.7 million. If corrected for early-retirements, pension premiums (which are offset against a provision at the holding company level) and other costs associated with non-active workers, personnel costs would have decreased 7.5%. The evolution in the item personnel costs (adjusted to account for active workers only) reflects the sharp decrease in EDP Distribuição's workforce, which more than offset the 3.4% salary increase in the year 2002.

GRAPHIC

Despite the reduction in controllable operating costs, EDP Distribuição's EBITDA fell 14.4% to €363.0 mainly as a result of the cut in the Use of the Distribution Grid tariff between 2001 and 2002. ERSE's published tariffs (November 2001) for 2002 enforced a decrease in the Use of the Distribution Tariff of 8.1% in VHV, 4.5% in HV, 9.2% in MV and 5.4% in LV.

These tariff reductions contributed to a significant decrease in EDP Distribuição's gross margin and therefore lower EBITDA when compared with last year. In addition, the significant increase in provisions for bad debt accounts, led to a fall in EBIT to €73.6 million in the 9M2002 period from €150.0 million in last year's period.

EDP Distribuição's capex increased 21.3% during the period to €212.7 million. This increase is explained by an internal change in ownership of some €42.8 million worth of assets that correspond to non-recurring investments made in a commercial and administrative IT system based on the SAP platform. As such, this transfer does not affect the Group's cash-(out)flow. EDP Distribuição's recurring investment, which accounted for 77% of the company's capex during the period, is mostly related to the expansion and improvement of the distribution network.

Hidrocantábrico's emission during the 9M2002 totalled 10,183 GWh, an 18.0% increase in comparison with the 9M2001. This surge in Hidrocantabrico's generation output is attributable to the sustained demand growth experienced in the Spanish electricity market as well as to the increased utilization of its thermal power plants in the context of an extremely poor hydrological year and a relatively low system reserve margin.

Under the current market conditions, Hidrocantábrico took advantage of its generation mix, being able to place its electricity surplus in the Spanish pool at very competitive prices. As a result, Hidrocantábrico managed to increase its market share by 1.2 p.p. to 7.8% in a yearly basis. The new CCGT plant, with 380 MW of installed capacity, started dispatching on October 1st, and is expected to reinforce Hidrocantábrico's market share to 8.6% by 2003.

Overall, Spanish pool prices were relatively high for most of the year enabling Hidrocantábrico to achieve an average selling price of approximately €47 per MWh.

Total electricity distribution increased 6.4% from last year's level, reaching 6,166 GWh. High voltage consumption represents 67% of company's distribution, which reflects the heavy weight of industrial clients in the company's client portfolio. According to the prevailing regulation for the Spanish electricity sector, Hidrocantábrico's allowed (or regulated) revenues for the electricity distribution activity amounted to €75.0 million.

Gas distribution to regulated clients, in the first nine months of 2002, decreased 6.3% to 1,093 GWh as industrial clients and cogenerators switched to non-regulated supply. We restate that gas distribution activity is, since late February 2002, subject to a new regulation that, similarly to the electricity distribution regulation, sets a cap on distributors gross margin through the definition of a maximum allowed (or regulated) revenues for this activity. Therefore, Hidrocantabrico's gas distribution gross margin reflects, in the 9M2002, revenues from sales during January and February at a unit tariff and the enforcement of the new regulation from February onwards.

Regarding the non-regulated activity, the downward trend in this year at the number of non-regulated electricity clients outside Astúrias continues to demonstrate a less aggressive stance towards the unregulated market, mostly due to the higher pool prices. Despite of a number of clients reduction, the company managed a 10.5% increase in non-regulated electricity supply revenues, which reflects the high pool prices experienced in the first nine months of 2002.

In the 9M2002, electricity generation and supply EBITDA grew 66,7% in comparison with last year's, continuing to represent a large stake (80%) of Hidrocantábrico's total EBITDA. Such performance is attributable to i) a sustained electricity demand growth of almost 3% during the first nine months of the year; ii) an increase in the generation output due to the intensive use of thermal power plants in a dry year; iii) the high pool prices experienced during 2002 caused by tight coverage conditions and amplified fuel costs.

The high pool prices, experienced during 2002, contributed to the increase in the Spanish electricity system costs exceeding significantly the predetermined regulated costs defined by the regulatory authorities at the beginning of the year. This resulted in a system "tariff deficit", which is supported by the Spanish generators companies. Hidrocantábrico has accounted for this tariff deficit in accordance to current regulation for a deficit year, resulting in a negative impact in net sales figures of €37.2 million.

Electricity distribution business continues to reflect the expansion of its activity to the Madrid, Alicante and Valencia markets, posting €17.2 million in EBITDA between July and September 2002. Regarding the gas distribution activity, the 22.0% increase in EBITDA still reflects i) the high demand in January and February when revenues were calculated based on unit prices and ii) the regulatory change in the beginning of the year, that since late February 2002 guarantee gas distributors a stable gross margin, offsetting a lower demand felt since March 2002.

Hidrocantábrico's financial debt increased from €853 million by YE2002 to €904 million at September 2002. However, at the financial results level this was more than offset by a reduction in Hidrocantábrico's average interest rate to 4.2% in the first nine months of 2002. As a result, interest payable decreased 8.1% when compared with the 9M2001.

Regarding capex, the 3Q2002, on a stand-alone basis, accounted for €64.1 million. This is explained by the strong increase in electricity and gas distribution investments, as well as, the accounting in this quarter of the investments made in special regime projects, incurred during the year, in order of €16.1 million. The 70% increase in electricity distribution investments reflects the expansion of this activity to Madrid, Valencia and Alicante markets, which accounted for €13.7 million in the first nine months of 2002. Gas operations' capex increased on the back of the acquisition of Gas Figueres, S.A. (€6.8 million) and the development of the gas network.

Regarding generation, the 37.3% decrease in investment is associated to the lower capex committed to the construction of the Castejón CCGT. The new CCGT power plant, with an installed capacity of 380 MW and a total investment in the order of €180.0 million, started its operations in the 1st of October.

GRAPHIC

Overall, Hidrocantábrico's EBITDA between the 9M2001 and the 9M2002 increased 54.5%, mostly explained by the climb at generation and supply activity performance, as clarified before. In addition, the beginning of the natural gas non-regulated supply operations in 2002, also contributed to EBITDA's rise. Also worth mentioning, is the 23.5% increase in outside supplies and services which is attributable to the expansion of the electricity distribution activity to Madrid, Alicante and Valencia.

The 9M2002 net income could have been higher had Hidrocantábrico not accounted for the €37.2 million tariff deficit against the first nine months revenues, as recommended by current electricity regulation applicable for a deficit year, and for a €26.3 million generic provision accounted for under "Extraordinary Expenses and Losses".

In the first nine months of 2002 Bandeirante's electricity sales to final customers totalled 7,571 GWh (down 11.1% on a yearly basis) due to a decrease in consumption across all segments with special emphasis on the commercial and residential ones. The decrease in consumption during 2002 still reflects the electricity-rationing programme enforced last year by the Brazilian government, and also Brazil's economic slowdown. Although the rationing programme has ended on February 28, 2002, current consumption levels are still adversely affected by the changes on consumption habits in the affected areas. Nevertheless, last quarter already showed some signs of recover with an increase of the average monthly energy distributed in the 3Q2002.

Despite the 11.1% reduction in GWh sales to final customers, revenues from electricity sales amounted to R$1,093 million, increasing 13.6% as a result of the 19.43% yearly tariff adjustment in October 2001 and the extraordinary tariff adjustment of around 6%, implemented by ANEEL on 27 December 2001, both positively affecting the invoiced electricity sales figure to final costumers. Other revenues include, among other, federal taxes and adjustments, to the previously accounted amounts related with the assumptions made regarding the recovery of the rationing losses, which were set by ANEEL and are currently being recovered through an extraordinary tariff increase.

Bandeirante's gross profit decreased 10.0% in a yearly basis to R$275.1 as a result of: i) a decline in the volume of electricity sold to final customers; ii) the low prices of the electricity surplus sold in the wholesale market (MAE) on the first nine months of 2002 and; iii) the increase in energy costs related to the ANEEL's October 2001 adjustments to the distributors take-or-pay contracts.

Nevertheless, on a stand-alone basis the 3Q2002's gross margin increased more than 10 p.p. when compared with the 2Q2002, to 30.4% of total revenues. This increase reflects the pass-through to the final tariff of the increase in Itaipú acquisition costs between January and October 2001, approved by ANNEL on October 2001. The total pass-through amounts to R$22.5 million, and is accounted as "minus" direct activity costs in the P&L on the 3Q2002 and booked as deferred costs in the balance sheet. Also noteworthy, the criteria change of low-income consumers, occurred in June 2002, also contributed to gross margin's increase, by raising monthly invoiced electricity.

Operating costs decreased 0.7% from R$132.7 million in the 9M2001 to R$131.7 million in the 9M2002. Outside supplies and services have been negatively influenced by the inclusion of two non-recurring items: i) R$3.4 million referring to the 2001 and 2002 accumulated amount regarding an enforceable monthly fee of R$0.3 million to be paid to ANEEL and; ii) a judicial contingence in order of R$2.4 million—which was already provisioned, being therefore offset by a decrease in provisions at the extraordinary results.

EBITDA and EBIT fell 17.2% and 26.2% respectively. This is mostly explained by the significant weight of non-controllable costs in total activity costs, a situation that should change with the gradual termination of the "contratos iniciais".

Regarding capex, R$12.5 million corresponds to the modernization and automation of the distribution network, which will continue to result in lower required maintenance services and a decrease in headcount.

Bandeirante's financial results improved markedly between the 9M2001 as a result of the substantial decrease in foreign exchange losses following the early redemption in January 2002 of the company's US dollar denominated debt.

Regarding the second and the third slices of BNDES loan, related to the approved recovery for the rationing losses and "Parcela A", R$184.3 million was already received in September 2002 and R$45.9 million will be received until the end of 2002. Both slices accrued interest at Selic rate between July and September 2002 in the amount of R$12.4 million (R$40 million since January 2002) accounted as interest receivable.

Extraordinary losses increased 55.8% as a result of a change in the accounting criteria regarding bad debts (which now includes accounts receivable older than 90 days vs. before accounts receivable older than six months) and also as a result of ANNEL's permission to include in this cost item bad debts from public entities.

In Euro terms, Bandeirante's results were affected by the strong Real devaluation against the Euro, especially in September 2002 when the Brazilian currency hit the 3.8 BRL/€ mark. Between September 2001 and September 2002, Real depreciated approximately 37% against the Euro, which explains the large EBITDA and EBIT decrease.

Nevertheless, due to the strong improvement in the company's financial results following the anticipated debt redemption, Bandeirante's contribution to EDP's consolidated results was positive in the 9M2002, managing to post a net income of €3.9 million against the €36.5 million loss in the 9M2001.

Important note:

On 1 October 2001, Bandeirante began its activity with a new business configuration after the demerger (split) process, being now 96.48% controlled by EDP and fully consolidated. Therefore, for like-to-like purposes, Bandeirante's 9M2001 data presented in this section is pro-forma taking in consideration 54% of Bandeirante.

Charts are presented on a like-for-like basis. Includes Oni Spain Comunitel and Germinus) in 9M2001.

Operating revenues generated by EDP Group's telecommunications companies climbed from €109.4 millions in the third quarter of 2001 to €222.9 million in the third quarter of 2002, from which €100.1 millions were generated by ONI Spain.

Voice services, which totalled €122.6 million, account for 59.9% of revenues from telecommunication services. By the end of September 2002, voice traffic handled by Oni and the number of equivalent client lines (CLIs), totalled 1.197,5 million minutes and 501,507 respectively, which represents a substantial increase from the 808.2 million minutes of voice traffic and the 452,184 CLIs registered at the end of the third quarter of 2001. This evolution is backed on the positive impact of the liberalization of short-distance calls (local traffic) in Portugal. For comparison purposes, 9M2001 figures regarding voice traffic and number of CLIs include the contribution of Comunitel for the full period, even thought the company was only acquired in the third quarter of 2001. During the first nine months of 2001, Comunitel recorded a voice traffic volume of 455.5 million minutes (665.2 million minutes in 9M2002 period) and 109,654 CLIs (112,411 in 9M2002 period).

Revenues from data services, which represent 30,8% of total revenues from telecommunications services, totalled €63.0 million during the period, from which €13.6 million were originated by ONI Spain. ISP services amounted to €9.7 million out of the total data services' revenues. Ending September 2002, ONI had a total of 338.408 registered Internet accounts, which translated into ISP traffic of 557 million minutes.

Direct activity costs of the telecommunications services activity rose 63.9% to €113.3 million as a result of the higher business turnover. Nevertheless, Oni's gross profit for the period improved markedly to €97.6 million, or approximately 43.8% of total revenues (up 13.7 p.p. from last year's period). This performance is due to the fact that Oni relies increasingly on its own extensive fiber optic backbone to provide direct access to a growing number of clients.

Total operating costs rose to €135.4 million, an increase of 48.6% in comparison with last year's figure for the same period. This relatively small increase in light of the raise in the Group's turnover reflects the cost cutting programme implemented by Oni's management in late 2001.

Outside Suplies and Services reached €93.6 million during the period (from which 26% come from ONI Spain), which represents a 59.6% increase from last year's period. The main contributors for this evolution are: i) client acquisition costs in the fixed business; ii) network costs; iii) and other Professional Services, namely IT.

Personnel Costs increased significantly during the period, mostly due to the inclusion of Comunitel in 9M2002 figures for the full period (9M2001 figures include Comunitel's contribution only for the 3Q2001), and to the start-up of the mobile operations. The fixed business accounts for approximately 75.4% of Oni's total personnel costs.

Regarding operating investments the main drivers for the increase in capex were the start-up of the mobile operation (ONI Way's investment totalled €154.3 million), the expansion of the network in the fixed business (namely Lisbon and Porto MAN) and direct access infrastructure (xDSL deployment both in Portugal and Spain). Fixed line operational investment in Spain increased significantly due to: i) the acquisition of some cable access rights (IRU—Indefeasible Right of Use) for €11.2 millions; ii) the incorporation of Grapes Espanha assets into Comunitel's Balance Sheet that resulted from the merger of the two companies (€4.6 millions); and iii) the expansion of call centres €1.7 millions.

Edinfor's operating revenues rose 38.5% from €153.9 million in the 9M2001 to €213.2 million in the 9M2002. The services provided item, which represents 81.5% of total revenues, was the main contributor to this increase, as a result of the continued involvement of the Edinfor Group companies in the development and installation of SAP-related projects. From the €213.2 million of total operating revenues, 40% or €85.6 million corresponds to sales and services provided to non-EDP Group companies.

In the 9M2002, operating costs totalled €183.5 million, increasing 51.4% from the 9M2001 figure. This increase, is largely attributable to a raise in outside supplies and services and personnel costs, and reveals the Group's efforts to cope with the higher demand for its services.

Operating income declined 5.2% to €16.2 million when compared with the same period in 2001, as a result of the strong increase in personnel costs and the fact that the company, following the transfer of some information systems' assets to EDP Distribuição, gave-up on some of the intra-Group revenues it previously earned from the provision of this service to EDP's electricity distribution company.

The Group's financial results improved by €83.9 million, or 29.1% when compared with the 9M2001. This performance is essentially explained by following factors:

1.  An increase of €22.2 million in net interest expenses between the 9M2001 and the 9M2002 as a result of the increase in net debt, which was not offset by the decrease in the average annual interest rate (net interest expense at the end of the period / net debt at the end of the period) from 4.13% to 3.02%;

2.  An increase in investment income that reflects the cash dividends received in 2002 from BCP (€14.9 million) and GalpEnergia (€5.4 million) whereas in 2001, BCP paid a stock-dividend and GalpEnergia did not distribute dividends.

3.  A reduction in foreign exchange losses as a result of the early repayment of Bandeirante's dollar-denominated debt in the end of 2001;

4.  A net negative contribution from group and associated companies of €43.1 million in the 9M2002 compared with a negative contribution of €20.7 million in the 9M2001. Losses from group and associated companies mainly reflect the negative impact of the Real devaluation on Escelsa and Enersul's (IVEN) dollar-denominated debt through September 30, 2002. This was partly offset by a positive contribution from REN and Hidrocantábrico and mainly by an increase in forex gains as a result of the creation in EDP S.A.'s balance sheet of a US$ asset used to cover part of its share of Escelsa and Enersul's US$ debt. Between January 2002 and September 30, 2002 EDP S.A. acquired US$165.3 million for this purpose. The forex gain accountable for this US$ asset at EDP Holding level amounts to €57.1 million by 9M2002.

The EDP Group's net extraordinary results amounted in the 9M2002 to €63.9 million. This year EDP has not recognized the extraordinary income booked in the 9M2001 associated with the hydrological correction account's surplus, on the grounds that the 9M2002 was a particularly dry period.

Regarding the disposal of OPTEP, we would like to point out that even though the exercise period of EDP's call option over the sold shares terminated last September, the group still retains for a period of three years an exposure to the variations in the value of the shares sold on March 2002, which results from the derivative financial instrument that was contracted at the time. As such, and in accordance with the principle of prudence, the relevant capital gain arising from this sale remains deferred and was not yet reflected in the 9M2002 results.

For what concerns the capital gain related to the sale of the Group's shareholding in Redal, this operation has only been recently approved by the relevant Moroccan authorities (October 2002) and therefore has not yet been reflected in this quarter's results.
