Management Report

Dear Shareholders,

In accordance with statutory and legislative requirements, the CPFL Energia S.A. (CPFL Energia) Board submits for your appreciation the Management Report and the Financial Statements duly certified by the Independent Auditors and the Fiscal Auditing Committee, referring to the financial year-ending December 31st, 2007. All comparisons in this Report refer to consolidated data during the same period of 2006, except when specifically stated otherwise.

1. Initial Considerations

The year 2007 was special in the history of the CPFL Energia group. During the year, CPFL Paulista, the company that originated the group, completed 95 years of existence and 10 years since privatization, in 1997. The holding company CPFL Energia, which completed 5 years of activity and three years since its initial public offering on the Novo Mercado of São Paulo’s Stock Exchange (Bovespa) and on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) (ADSs Level III), made important advances during the year, which reconfirms the company’s competence in implementing the defined business plan, which has as its main objective the creation of value for the shareholders in a consistent and sustainable manner. The results were impressive: Gross Revenue reached R$ 14,207 million from growth of 16.2%, mainly a reflection of the 12.4% growth in electric energy sales within the distributors’ concession area and the increase of 48.1% in the group’s generating capacity over the period. EBITDA, of R$ 3,345 million, was 19.9% higher than 2006. Net Income was a record, reaching R$ 1,643 million, 17.0% above the amount registered in 2006.

These results are mainly due to the discipline demonstrated in the introduction of each stage of the growth strategy, the careful choice of investments made, the permanent pursuit of standards of excellence in the management of corporate and operational processes in the controlled companies, the commitment to quality in services rendered, the satisfaction of customers expectations and the differentiations demonstrated in the business areas exposed to the free competition.

24


With these differentiations, in 2007, the group consistently advanced in its strategy of business expansion. The assets of CMS Energy Brasil were acquired (with the resultant name-change to CPFL Jaguariúna S.A.), which comprise four distributors, two companies active in the energy commercialization segment and services, plus generation assets, totaling 87.0 MW, corresponding to 9 small hydroelectric power plants (PCHs) and a participation in the the Luiz Eduardo Magalhães hydroelectric facility (UHE Lajeado). The controlled company CPFL Paulista increased its client portfolio through the acquisition of the assets of Cerfra, the rural electrification cooperative of the Franca region, within its concession area.

The acquisitions strengthen the strategic positioning of CPFL Energia in the market. In the distribution segment, with sales of 35,245 GWh and growth of 10.9% compared to 2006, the group has become market leader, with 6.3 million clients and 13.8% share of the Brazilian distribution market. In this segment the areas of operation have risen to 568 municipalities, in four of the most important Brazilian States: São Paulo, Rio Grande do Sul, Paraná and Minas Gerais.

In the competitive segment of commercialization, energy sales to free clients and through bilateral contracts reached 8,951 GWh, resulting in a domestic market share of 23%, plus a growing participation in sales of value added services to large clients.

In the generation segment, besides the previously mentioned acquisitions, CPFL Geração concluded the construction of the Campos Novos hydroelectric facility, the third large plant to go into operation of the six plants forecast until 2010. With this, CPFL Geração attained 1,501 MW of installed capacity which when added to the 87 MW of CPFL Jaguariúna, totalized 1,588 MW of the group’s generation capacity, which represents an increase of 48% over the year 2006. The forecast for 2008 is for the start-up of commercial operation of the Castro Alves (130 MW) and the 14 de Julho (100 MW) hydroelectric facilities. In 2010, the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric facility (855 MW), which is under construction in the south of the country, will come on-line, totalizing 2,174 MW of installed capacity. It is worth noting that the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric facility received the approval of financing in the amount of R$ 1.7 billion, from the National Bank of Economic and Social Development (BNDES), which falls in with the new criteria of financing established by the Bank.

During the year, the economic-financial guidelines adopted by the CPFL group, have shown to be effective, permitting an improvement in the debt profile through a reduction in the cost of debt from 13.4% p.a. (in 2006) to 12.1% p.a. (in 2007), even when considering the increase in financial debt, incurred by investments in acquisitions and funding for the construction of the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric facility.

25


The differentiated business strategies and the company performance in 2007 can be gauged by the appreciation of shares on the São Paulo and New York Stock Exchanges, reflecting the trust and credibility earned from the market. The increase in the daily trading volume of CPFL Energia shares on Bovespa in 2006 and 2007 resulted in their inclusion in the Brasil 50 Index (IBrX50) and the Bovespa Index (Ibovespa), respectively in January and May, 2007.

With actions founded on solid Corporate Governance guidelines, management guided by criteria of excellence and responsibility in business dealings, CPFL Energia also gained other important acknowledgements. For the third consecutive year, its shares have been included in the Corporate Sustainability Index – ISE, of Bovespa, which highlights companies that incorporate the permanent and integrated management of economic, social and environmental aspects into their business processes.

This recognition was confirmed by the inclusion of CPFL Energia, for the fifth year, as “Model Company” in the Guide Exame of Sustainability 2007 and, for the sixth year, in the Guide Exame/Você S.A. “Best Companies to Work for in Brazil”. The group was also featured in a survey carried out by the magazine Carta Capital, as one of the most admired companies in Brazil.

The initiatives developed and the results obtained in 2007, reconfirm the CPFL Energia group’s commitment to the creation of value for the shareholders through sustainable business growth.

2. Comments on the Conjuncture

MACROECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT

The Brazilian economy displayed greater dynamism in 2007. The investment rate in the manufacturing sector was positive and the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) surpassed the average growth registered over the last few years. Domestic demand gained new impetus, favored by the fall in the unemployment rates, by the increase in real earnings and by the expansion of credit, although interest rates continue at elevated levels. Brazil has demonstrated greater resilience to the threat posed by the international economic crisis which occurred during the last quarter of the year, indicating an optimistic perspective for the macroeconomic scenario in 2008, with expansion of economic activity and new investments of the public sector.

REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

The year was marked by the consolidation of the regulatory environment, represented by the series of normative acts by ANEEL. Noteworthy within this context is the methodology which will come in force in the 2nd cycle of distributors tariff revision defined through the publication of ANEEL Normative Resolution No. 234/06. This resolution will be fine-tuned from the contributions received via AP No. 052/07, which should be concluded in 2008. In addition, the regularization of the general conditions for the incorporation of private networks (ANEEL Resolution No. 229) will permit the regularization of clients’ assets involved, besides providing services with better standards of quality and efficiency.

With the repeal of the Ordinance DNAEE No. 05/1990, which established the financial participation of the consumer for new connections, which was replaced by ANEEL Resolution No. 223/03, resulting from the Law No. 10438/2002, a new systematic was defined, which will imply the reimbursement of the customer’s participation for connections made after November 2003. The rule for this reimbursement was established in Resolution No. 250/2007, with a time-frame of one year for its implementation.

Finally, with the ANEEL Normative Resolution No. 286/07, the rules for commercializing electric energy derived from sources where consumption incentives were given, for loads above 500 KW, as foreseen in ANEEL Normative Resolution No. 247/06, were approved. From this, new opportunities have emerged for operations in the commercialization segment, the results of which will be observed on the free energy market over the coming years.

STOCKHOLDING CHANGES

Stockholding Reorganization of Rio Grande Energia-RGE

Unbundling of Stockholding in RGE: in compliance with ANEEL Authoritative Resolution No. 305/05, the stockholding reorganization process was concluded, with approval in the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting - GSM held on March 14th, 2007, considering the stockholding segregation of CPFL Paulista in RGE, indirectly transferring 99.76% control to CPFL Energia, through CPFL Serra Ltda.

Total    46,475    41,363    12.4% 
 

In 2007, sales in the concession area, achieved by the distribution segment, totaled 46,475 GWh, an increase of 12.4% compared to 2006, mainly due to the 32.7% acquisition of RGE, CPFL Santa Cruz and the distributors controlled by CPFL Jaguariúna. Discounting the effect of these acquisitions, the increase would be 6.0%.

Sales to the captive market totaled 35,245 GWh, with an increase of 10.9%, due to organic growth in the distributors’ concession area, as well as the acquisitions over the period. Disregarding this effect, growth would be 3.3%.

The quantity of energy, in GWh, corresponding to the consumption by free clients in the distributors’ areas of activity, billed through the Tariff of Use of the Distribution System (TUSD), reached 11,230 GWh, with an increase of 17.2%.

Sales to the Captive Market - GWh
 
     2007     2006    Var. 
Residential    10,766    9,489    13.5%

Others    4,130    3,717    11.1% 
 
Total    35,245    31,778    10.9% 
 

The captive market were highlighted by the increase in residential class (13.5%), industrial (4.8%) and commercial (12.5%), which together represent 81.2% of the total consumption by captive clients from group distributors. Discounting the effect of the acquisitions over the period, the sales performance would be:

Residential and Commercial Classes: an increase of 6.9% in both classes. The performance of the commercial class was favored by the increase is spending power, and the ease of credit coupled with the reduction in interest rates and extended payment terms. These effects, combined with the reduction of domestic appliance prices, stimulated the expansion of residential class consumption. Higher temperatures registered in the concession areas of group distributors also contributed to the performance of these classes.

Industrial Class: a reduction of 2.0%, mainly due to migration of captive clients to the free market. Although the flux of clients to the free market had been slowing down over 2007, the migration occurred with greater intensity among the so called “special clients”, which have contracted demand over 500 kW and are qualified to purchase electric energy from alternative generation sources, such as biomass and small hydroelectric plants (PCHs). Generally speaking, these alternative sources receive incentives through discounts on TUSD payments, which become an attraction for this range of client. Therefore, the migration of “special customers” to the market with incentives does not represent an increase in consumption on the free market, as these clients are not really considered free, and they financially impact the distributors through the TUSD discount, which is compensated in the distributors’ tariff revisions and readjustments.

OPERATING PERFORMANCE IN THE DISTRIBUTION SEGMENT

In order to satisfy the customer’s expectations the CPFL Energia Group distributors work with the objective of increasing the efficiency of their operations and to render quality and differentiated services. To achieve this, the company continually invests in the electric system and its support structure, in a way that provides them with the necessary conditions to preserve the high standards of quality and the continuity of power supply, even through adverse operating situations.

Quality of Energy Supply

To continuously improve the quality of supply, the CPFL Energia group distributors have developed initiatives and responses with a view to expand and automate the electric system and increase logistical efficiency of the network services to guarantee operational agility, reliability and flexibility. The distributors provide the customers with various channels of assistance and carry out intense inspections and preventive maintenance programs on their electric energy assets. The company also runs qualification and professional training programs and invests in the modernization of the systems and operational support infrastructure.

The results of these actions are reflected in the quality of supply indexes (FEC, which measures the frequency of interruptions per client over the year, and DEC, which measures the duration of interruptions per client over the year) registered by the CPFL Energia Group distributors. The following table shows the 2007 results:

 
INDEX    CPFL    CPFL    RGE    CPFL Santa    CPFL    CPFL Sul    CPFL Leste    CPFL

Commercial losses

The eight group distributors have developed an ongoing operation to combat commercial losses in their respective areas of activity, which covers, principally, the inspection of consumer units and the verification and substitution of obsolete or damaged meters. In 2007 the distributors carried out 550,000 inspections which resulted in the recovery of 416 GWh, equivalent to revenue of R$ 140 million.

Universality of Service

The markets of the distributors CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga, CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Sul Paulista, CPFL Leste Paulista and CPFL Mococa are entirely universalized. RGE connected 6,943 new clients in 2007. For 2008 the investment forecast will permit the connection of approximately five thousand new clients, or the complete universality of the distributor market.

Integration of the Distributors

CPFL Energia has also made important advances in the implementation of Integration Plans for the companies acquired between 2006 and 2007, which are aimed at guaranteeing the creation of shareholder value and business sustainability by implementing corporate governance guidelines and the management model, guided by criteria of excellence and corporate responsibility, adopted by the group companies.

OPERATING PERFORMANCE IN THE GENERATION SEGMENT

The energy available to CPFL Geração for commercialization is equivalent to the Secured Energy of each Hydroelectric Facility, in proportion to the shareholding participation held by the company. In 2007, the Secured Energy produced by the CPFL Energia group hydroelectric facilities reached 800 median MW, with an increase of 40.1% on the 571 median MW of the previous year. This growth is due to the coming on-line of the Campos Novos hydroelectric facility, the acquisition of the generation assets of CPFL Jaguariúna and the conclusion of the re-powering projects of the small hydroelectric plant of Gavião Peixoto.

During the year, the consolidated index of the group turbine availability was 90%, higher than the 86% recorded in 2006.

33


In 2008, with the start of operations of the Castro Alves and 14 de Julho hydroelectric facilities and the small hydroelectric plants Capão Preto e Chibarro, Secured Energy provided by the group should reach 862 median MW. In 2010, when the conclusion of the Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric facility is forecast, the Secured Energy of the group will reach 1,082 median MW.

4. Economic-Financial Performance

Management commentaries on the economic-financial performance and operating results should be read together with the Audited Financial Statements and Explanatory Notes.

Operating Revenue

Gross operating revenue reached R$ 14,207 million, signifying growth of 16.2% (R$ 1,980 million).

The main contributing factors to this evolution in gross revenue were:

i) Increase of 12,4% in sales of electric energy within the concession area; and

ii) Distributor tariff readjustments, as referred to previously in the item Tariffs and Prices of Electric Energy.

Gross revenue was also impacted positively to the tune of R$ 189 million by the write-down of the Free Energy Liabilities. In 2007, due to the expiration of the term stipulated for the recovery of the RTE and the pass-on to the generators of free energy, the liability write down was concluded in compliance to ANEEL guidelines. It should be noted that the same sum was registered in the item Operating Costs/Expenses, due to the same asset write-down.

34


Operating Cash Generation — EBITDA

The following analysis excludes the adjustment mentioned in the previous item, with regard to free energy, which do not affect the company’s net income and EBITDA.

The Operating Cash Generation measured by EBITDA reached R$ 3,345 million in 2007, with growth of 19.9% (R$ 556 million). This result mostly reflects the increase of 16.5% in Net Revenue (R$ 1,309 million), compensating for the increases of 13.4% in the Cost of Electric Energy (R$ 562 million) and the 10.8% in Operating Cost/Expense (R$ 106 million), excluding spending on the Private Pension Fund, Depreciation and Amortization.

EBITDA is calculated from the sum of net income, taxes, financial result, depreciation/amortization and private pension fund plus adjustments for extraordinary items.

35


Net Income over the Year

In 2007, CPFL Energia earned Net Income of R$ 1,643 million, with growth of 17.0% (R$ 239 million). This result is specifically due to the following factors:

i) Increase of 19.9% (R$ 556 million) in EBITDA;

ii) Increase of 77.8% (R$ 225 million) in net financial expenses. Of this total, R$ 122 million resulted from the non-recurring gains in 2006 from the process judged in favor of the controlled companies referring to Pis and Cofins taxes paid on the expansion of the calculation base; and

iii) Increase of 12.8% (R$ 94 million) in Income Tax and Social Insurance Contribution.

For the year, net income per share was R$3.42.

Dividends

The Board proposes the distribution of R$ 1,561 million in dividends, the equivalent of 95% of Net Income for Year, of R$ 3.25 per share. With this, the company exceeds the minimum dividend distribution of 50% of net income, as stipulated in its dividend policy.

Indebtedness

The company indebtedness (considering financial debt and derivatives) at the end of 2007 stood at R$ 6,423 million, with an increase of 22.5% . Despite the increase in financial debt in nominal values, its average cost has fallen from 13.4% p.a., in 2006, to 12.1% p.a., in 2007, owing to the reduction in interest rates (Selic), from 15.0% p.a. to 11.8% p.a., and TJLP (from 7.87% p.a. to 6.38% p.a.), over the year.

36


The increase in debt is due mainly to the financing of acquisitions and the expansion of the generation and distribution businesses. The main events of the year were:

• Funding (BNDES and other financial institutions) obtained by CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga, RGE, CPFL Brasil, CPFL Geração and Generation Projects, totalizing R$ 1,447 million;

• Issuance of debentures by CPFL Energia, in the amount of R$ 450 million, for the acquisition of CMS Energy Brasil S.A. (CPFL Jaguariúna);

• Issuance of debentures by RGE (R$ 380 million), with the financial settlement of R$ 100 million in 2007;

• Amortizations (BNDES and other financial institutions) carried out by CPFL Energia, CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga, RGE, CPFL Geração and Generation Projects, totalizing R$ 943 million.

For further details regarding debt, see Explanatory Notes Nos. 15 and 16 in the Financial Statements.

Payment Delinquency

In the electric energy distribution segment, the group distributors have maintained their efforts to collect unpaid bills from defaulting clients and obtained a reduction in the delinquency indexes. The weighted average delinquency index of the eight group distributors is 1.49%, over their Gross Revenue.

For the power generation and commercialization segments it is interesting to note that, over the year, payment delinquency was practically nonexistent.

5. Investments

Aligned with the strategy of expansion and consolidation of the group’s participation in the Brazilian electric energy market, in 2007, the CPFL Energia Group invested R$ 1,545 million. Of this, R$ 859 million was invested in business expansion, covering the construction of hydroelectric facilities, the re-powering of small hydroelectric plants and the expansion and strengthening of the electric system to keep pace with the expressive growth in the distribution market. CPFL Energia, through its controlled companies, also invested R$ 416 million in the acquisition of companies and electric energy assets. A further R$ 258 million was allocated to improvements in the electric system, operational logistics and operational support infrastructure systems throughout the diverse business segments. The group commercializing companies received investments of R$ 9 million, while another R$ 3 million went on other investments.

( 2 ) PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
   

The individual (Company) and consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Brazil, in accordance with the Accounting Manual of the Public Electric Energy Service, rules defined by National Electric Energy Agency “ANEEL” and the standards published by the Brazilian Securities Commission (“CVM”).

60


In order to improve the information presented to the market, the 2007 and 2006 Cash Flow and Added Value Statements, parent company and consolidated, are presented as additional information, in APPENDICES I and II.

The Cash Flow Statements were prepared in accordance with the criteria established by FAS 95 – Statement of Cash Flows, with respect to the presentation format, within the context of registering the Company's financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

2.1 Summary of the Principal Accounting Practices

a) Cash and Banks: Include cash balances, bank deposits, bank deposits certificates and short-term financial investments, which are stated at cost, plus income accrued up to the balance sheet dates.

b) Consumers, Concessionaires and Licensees: Include the supply of billed and unbilled electric energy to final consumers, and to other concessionaires for electric energy supply, in accordance with amounts through the Electric Energy Trading Chamber (“CCEE”) and balances related to regulatory assets of different kinds.

c) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: recorded based on an analysis of the amounts receivable from clients in the residential class past due by more than 90 days, in the commercial class past due by more than 180 days and from other classes past due by more than 360 days, including public sector clients. It also takes into account an individual analysis of the balances of the larger customers, including refinancing of receivables classified as doubtful, in accordance with management's experience in relation to effective losses.

d) Investments: Include interests in subsidiaries valued by the equity method. Other interests are recorded at acquisition cost, net of provisions to reduce them to market value, where applicable. Investments also include the goodwill recorded on the acquisition of subsidiaries, resulting from the difference between the acquisition price paid and the book value of the companies acquired, amortized in proportion to the projected net income for the remaining period of the concession contract of each investee, in accordance with the ANEEL instructions.

Also includes assets related to the Serra da Mesa Hydropower Plant project, which, as they are leased to FURNAS, are shown under “Investments – Leased Assets”, net of depreciation calculated by the straight-line method, at annual rates of 2% to 20%

e) Property, plant and equipment: Recorded at purchase, construction or formation cost, including, where applicable, interest, other financial charges and administrative costs, restated to December 31, 1995, net of depreciation calculated by the straight-line method, at annual rates of 2% to 20%.

f) Restatement of Assets and Liabilities: Assets and liabilities indexed to inflation or exchange rates variations, in accordance with contractual or legal provisions, are updated to the balance sheet dates.

g) Income Tax and Social Contribution: are calculated and recorded in accordance with the legislation in effect on the balance sheet dates. The Company and certain subsidiaries recorded in their financial statements the effects of tax credits relating to income tax and social contribution on tax loss carryforwards and temporary differences, supported by expectations of the future generation of income tax and social contribution payable within a period not exceeding 10 years. The subsidiaries also recorded tax credits in respect of the benefit of the goodwill merged by the subsidiaries, which are amortized in proportion to the projected net income for the remainder of the concession contract of each investee.

h) Retirement and Pension Plans: The subsidiaries record the post-employment benefits and the pension plans on the accrual basis and in accordance with CVM Decision 371/00.

i) Reserves for contingencies: The reserves for contingencies known at the balance sheet dates are recorded by assessing and quantifying the risks relating to tax, labor or civil matters, where management and the legal advisors consider loss is probable in processes involving litigation. The provisions shown in this item are net of the related legal deposits or blocks.

j) Loans and financing - Restated in accordance with the monetary and exchange variations, including charges.

61


k) Derivatives - The company uses derivatives to manage the risks of variations in the exchange rates and interest on certain liabilities. These contracts are recorded on the accrual basis, and accrued losses and gains are recognised in financial income or expense.

l) Income: Revenue and expense are recorded on the accrual basis. Revenue from electric energy distribution is recognized when the energy is billed. Unbilled revenue relating to the monthly billing cycle is provisioned based on the actual amount of energy supplied during the month and the annualized loss rate. Historically, the difference between the estimated unbilled revenue and the actual consumption, which is recognized in the subsequent month, has not been material. Revenue from energy generation sales is recorded based on the assured energy and at tariffs specified in the terms of the contract or the market price in force. No consumers represent 10% or more of the total billing. The credits on operating costs and expense offset in determination of PIS and COFINS are stated net in the respective costs and expenses accounts.

m) Estimates: Preparation of financial statements in accordance with Brazilian Accounting Principles requires management of the Company and its subsidiaries to use estimates as a basis for recording certain transactions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and also the disclosure of information on data in the financial statements. The final results of these transactions and information, with respect to their effective realization in subsequent periods, may differ from these estimates.

n) Net Income per Share: Is determined considering the number of shares outstanding on the balance sheet dates.

The Company and its subsidiaries made certain reclassifications in the Financial Statements published in December 31, 2006, to provide a basis for comparison, basically as a result of the new classifications required by ANEEL, in accordance with Order nº 3.073, which made changes to the Public Electric Energy Service Accounting Manual:

Item    From                             To 
     
        Deductions from Operating 
Fuel Consumption Account - CCC    Operating Expenses    Revenue 
Energy Development Account -        Deductions from Operating 
CDE    Operating Expenses    Revenue 
Research and Development and        Deductions from Operating 
Energy Efficiency Programs    Operating Expenses    Revenue 

2.2 Consolidation Principles

The consolidated financial statements include the balances and transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga, CPFL Serra (to June 30, 2007), RGE (as from July 1, 2007), Nova 4 (to October 30, 2007), CPFL Santa Cruz (as from November 1, 2007), CPFL Geração, CPFL Brasil, Chumpitaz and Perácio (see corporate restructuring in Note 12). The asset, liability, income and expense balances were fully consolidated. Prior to consolidation into the Company's financial statements, the financial statements of CPFL Geração, CPFL Brasil and Perácio are consolidated with those of their subsidiaries, fully (majority) controlled subsidiaries or proportionally (jointly) controlled subsidiaries, according to the rules defined in CVM Instruction No. 247/96.

In compliance with the conditions described above, the portion relating to the non-controlling shareholders is stated separately in liabilities and income statements for the fiscal year.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The accounting policies of CPFL Energia’s subsidiaries are consistent with those of CPFL Energia. The main difference in accounting policies relates to the revaluation of property, plant and equipment recorded by the indirect subsidiary RGE, which is eliminated in the shareholders’ equity base for calculation of equity interest and, consequently, in consolidation.

The Company's subsidiaries, by line of business, are as follows:

a) Rationing

At the end of 2001, as a result of the Emergency Program for the Reduction of Electric Energy Consumption, in effect between June 2001 and February 2002, the generators, the power distributors and the Federal Government signed the "Overall Agreement for the Electric Energy Sector". The agreement introduced an Extraordinary Tariff Increase of 2.9% on energy supplied to residential

64


consumers (except those regarded as "low income consumers") and for rural and public lighting, and 7.9% for all other consumers, as a mechanism to reimburse the energy sector for the losses incurred as a result of this program.

This adjustment is being used to offset the following regulatory assets recorded by the subsidiaries:

The RTE recorded refers to the indirect subsidiary CPFL Sul Paulista, which established a provision for losses of R$ 2,021, based on estimated projections of revenue, taking into consideration the market growth and expectations of inflation, interest and regulatory aspects. The deadline established by ANEEL for recovery of the RTE by CPFL Sul Paulista is January 2009.
   
 
The term for recovery of the RTE ended in 2007 for the concessionaires CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga, and losses of R$ 115,863 and R$ 36,227, respectively, were recorded due to failure to realize this asset. The subsidiaries CPFL Leste Paulista, CPFL Jaguari and CPFL Mococa realized the full amount of the RTE in June 2005, December 2004 and December 2006, respectively.

The amortization of Parcel “A” in 2007 for CPFL Piratininga and CPFL Santa Cruz is as follows:

b) Review and Adjustment Tariff

b.1) 1st Tariff review cycle (2003/2004)

a) CPFL Paulista – Depreciation Difference

In 2007, by Ratification Resolution nº 443, ANEEL amended the final result of the first periodic Tariff Review of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista, approved in April 2005, adjusting the energy supply tariffs by 20.66%, due to a review of the calculation of the average depreciation percentage used in the 2003 tariff review. The difference in income resulting from the change in the tariff adjustment from 20.29% to 20.66%, and of the Xe component of the X Factor from 1.1352% to 1.2530%, corresponds to a financial adjustment of R$ 44,868, which is being offset in the 2007 tariff adjustment. This regulatory asset was recorded in the “Consumers, Concessionaires and Licensees – Tariff Review - Depreciation” account, including the effects of PIS and COFINS, and has been amortized since the adjustment.

b) CPFL Piratininga – Remuneration Base

In 2006, by Ratification Resolution nº 385, and in answer to the application filed by Bandeirante Energia S.A. (“Bandeirante”) for reconsideration of the tariff review, ANEEL amended the amounts of the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga remuneration base.

In accordance with this amendment, ANEEL established that the electric energy supply tariffs should be reset at 10.14% . Accordingly, in line with the new provisional percentage established by ANEEL, the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga recorded a regulatory asset of R$ 26,970 thousand in 2006, including PIS and COFINS, set against income from the Sale of Electric energy.

ANEEL Resolution nº 336, of 2001, concerning approval of the request for spin-off of Bandeirante and the partial transfer of its concession area to the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, established that, in the first periodic Tariff Review, the lower of the rates of the two concessionaires would apply. As the rate for Bandeirante was 10.14%, against 11.52% for CPFL Piratininga, the rate of 10.14% applies.

ANEEL Order nº 3209, of October 22, 2007, ratified the result of the Company’s first tariff Review, making it final.

c) CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Mococa and CPFL Leste Paulista – Remuneration Base

In 2005, ANEEL finally approved the results of the first periodic Tariff Review of February 2004 for the subsidiaries CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Leste Paulista, CPFL Sul Paulista, CPFL Jaguari and CPFL Mococa. The differences between the provisional and the final percentages for subsidiaries CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Leste Paulista e CPFL Mococa were deferred to the next tariff adjustments and recovery is expected to continue until January 2008.

b.2) 2nd tariff review cycle (2007/2008)

By Ratification Resolution nº 553, ANEEL provisionally readjusted the tariffs of the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga by -10.11%, of which -10.94% refers to the tariff adjustment and 0.83% to the financial components not included in the periodic tariff review.

b.3) 2007 Tariff Adjustments

The Annual Tariff Review - IRT of the electric energy distributors is the sum of the economic tariff review and the additional financial components. The Ratification Resolutions and the breakdown of the annual tariff review for the Company’s directly and indirectly controlled electric energy distributors are shown in the following table:

69


        % Annual    % Financial    % Total 
Distributor    Ratification Resolution    Adjustment    Components    Adjustment

CPFL Piratininga    See 2nd Tariff Review Cycle             

In addition to the CVA (see item “c”), the main additional financial components are as follows:

    Total Amount    Recording of PIS and Cofins 
    Approved    increase - Asset 
     
Distributor        2007    2006 
 
CPFL Paulista    97,377    72,983

RGE    13,462    569   
       
        73,552    30,842 
       

These amounts were recorded in the “Prepaid Expenses” account (note 9).

In view of the discussions in respect of the nature of this credit, the Company conservatively opted to record a liability of the same amount, posted in the account “Other Accounts Payable” (note 21), which is monetarily restated based on the variation of the IGP-M.

d) Low Income Consumers’ Subsidy

Law nº 10.438, of April 26, 2002 and Decree nº 4.336, of August 15, 2002, established new guidelines and criteria for classification of consumer units in the low-income residential sub-category. According to the legislation, this new criteria encompasses consumer units served by monophase circuits, with average monthly consumption in the last 12 months of less than 80kWh, and consumer units with average monthly consumption in the last 12 months of 80 to 220kWh, provided certain specific requirements are complied with, such as enrollment in Federal Government Social Programs.

As the subsidies granted to the consumers will be offset in the ambit of the concessionaire itself, through the tariff charged to the other consumers in the market served, in view of the impact of this new criteria on the tariff levels, and the principal of reasonable tariffs for the rest of the market, ANEEL introduced a new methodology for calculating the subsidy, which has been applied monthly since May 2002.

After ratification by ANEEL, the amounts calculated using this new methodology should be settled as follows:

a) Financing of Consumers' Debts - Refers to the negotiation of overdue accounts receivable from consumers, principally public organizations. Payment of some of these credits is guaranteed by the debtors, in the case of public entities, by pledging the bank accounts through which their ICMS revenue is received. Allowances for doubtful accounts are based on best estimates of the subsidiaries' managements for unsecured amounts and losses regarded as probable. (Note 8).

b) Electric Energy Trading Chamber (“CCEE”) transactions - The amounts refer to the sale of electric energy on the short-term market in the period from September 2000 to December 2007. The noncurrent amount receivable mainly comprises: (i) legal adjustments, established as a result of suits brought by agents in the sector; (ii) lawsuits challenging the CCEE accounting for the period from September 2000 to December 2002; (iii) provisional accounting entries established by the CCEE; (iv) amounts negotiated bilaterally pending settlement. The subsidiaries consider that there is no significant risk on the realization of these assets and consequently no provision was posted in the accounts.

c) Concessionaires and Licensees - Refers basically to accounts receivable in respect of the supply of electric energy to other Concessionaires and Licensees, mainly by the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil, and to transactions relating to the partial spin-off of Bandeirante by the controlling shareholder CPFL Piratininga. The amounts are set off against accounts payable, through a settlement of accounts.

( 6 ) FINANCIAL INVESTMENTS 
 

In April 2005, through a Private Credit Agreement, the Company acquired the credit arising from the Purchase and Sale of Electric Energy Agreement between Companhia Energética de São Paulo

74


(“CESP”) (seller) and CPFL Brasil (purchaser), referring to the supply of energy for a period of 8 years. The amounts handed over by the Company to CESP will be settled using the funds derived from the acquisition of energy produced by that company for CPFL Brasil.

The short-term balance is R$ 34,555 (R$ 28,615 in 2006), and the long-term balance is R$ 97,521 (R$ 103,901 in 2006). The operation is subject to interest of 17.5% p.a., plus the annual variation of the IGP-M, and is amortized in monthly installments of amounts corresponding to the purchase of energy.

The goodwill arising from the acquisitions of the equity interests is amortized in proportion to the net income curves projected for the remaining term of the concession contract. The rates are reviewed periodically.

Goodwill on Purchase:

83


Parent Company: Refers mainly to acquisition of all the shares held by CPFL Geração’s minority shareholders in June 2005, CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga in November 2005, and RGE in December 2007.

CPFL Jaguariúna: In June 2007, the subsidiary Perácio purchased 94,810,080 common shares and 94,810,080 preferred shares, comprising 100% of the total capital of CPFL Jaguariúna. The purchase price was R$ 407,710, and the total, including consulting and audit costs, amounted to R$ 411,943, generating goodwill of R$ 142,793, based on estimated future profits.

Amortization of Goodwill

In order to comply with ANEEL instructions and avoid the goodwill amortization resulting from the merger of a subsidiary by the parent company causing a negative impact on dividends paid to the shareholders, the subsidiaries apply the concepts of CVM Instructions nº 319/1999 and nº 349/2001 in relation to this goodwill . Accordingly, a reserve was recorded to maintain the integrity of the subsidiaries’ equity, so that the effect on the equity reflects the tax benefit of the merged goodwill. These changes affected the Company's investment in the subsidiaries, and goodwill was recorded in the parent company in order to restore it . The goodwill is amortized by the Company in proportion to the projected net income curves for the remaining term of the subsidiaries’ concession. The corporate restructuring carried out in 2007 is described in Note 12.1.

12.3 – Leased Assets:

In the consolidated financial statements, the leased assets refer principally to the assets of the Serra da Mesa Plant, leased to the concession holder (FURNAS), for a 30-year period, ending in 2028 (see details in Note 1 Operations).

These assets are depreciated over their estimated useful life at annual rates defined by ANEEL, and in accordance with general conditions of the concession agreement held by FURNAS.

On termination of the concession, these assets and facilities revert to the Granting Authority, in return for compensation at book values

The composition of these assets is as follows:

    Consolidated 
   
    2007    2006 
     
    Average Annual    Purchase Cost    Accumulated    Net Value    Net Value 
    Depreciation Rate      Depreciation

Total        940,569    (218,475)   722,094    744,320 
           

12.4 – Other

Refers mainly to the indirect subsidiary Paulista Lajeado Energia S.A.’s 5.84% participation in the total capital of Investco S/A, comprising 25,829 common shares and 16,412 preferred shares (see Note 1 – Operations for further details of the investment). This investment is recorded on a cost basis. Due to the participation of minority shareholders in the form of (i) preferred shares representing 40.07% of the total capital of Paulista Lajeado, and (ii) beneficiaries (founder-shares) who assign the right to 10% of net income before profit sharing, these effects, totaling R$ 72,906, were registered in consolidated financial statements in the Non-Controlling Shareholders Interest liabilities.

In 2007, the Company received R$ 1,588,054 in respect of the total balance of 2006 dividends receivable, and an interim dividend and interest on shareholders’ equity declared and provisioned in 2007

As mentioned in Note 12.1, the Company capitalized R$ 100,642 in CPFL Paulista by Reversal of dividends.

Differentiated rights to BAESA's income were recognized as of December 31, 2006, in accordance with a shareholders' agreement, as equity in subsidiaries, at a different percentage from that of CPFL Geração's participation in the venture. Accordingly, the amount of R$ 16,755 was recorded in the consolidated financial statements in 2006 as dividends receivable. However, in 2007, as a result of negotiation between the shareholders, it was agreed that CPFL Geração's right to the differentiated income will be realized by financial offseting between the shareholders. The amounts recorded in 2006 were therefore reversed and the amount of R$ 31,793 was recorded in CPFL Geração's income for the period November 2005 to December 2007 as “ Other Operating Income”, set against “ Other Credits” in long-term accounts.

The assets and installations used for generation, distribution and sales are tied to these services, and may not be removed, disposed of, assigned or given in mortgage guarantee without prior authorization from the Regulatory Agency. ANEEL regulates the release of assets and concessions of the Public Electric Energy Service, granting prior authorization for the release of assets that are of no use to the

86


concession, when intended for sale, establishing that the proceeds of the sale should be deposited in a tied bank account for investment in the concession.

The average depreciation rate of the assets is approximately 5.00% p.a. for the distributors and 2.6% p.a. for the generators.

Construction in progress –The consolidated balance mainly refers to work in progress on the projects of the operating subsidiaries, described in Note 1, as shown below:

The interest on the loans taken by these projects to finance the construction is being or has been capitalized, and a total of R$ 28,976 (R$ 53,630 in 2006) was recorded in the consolidated financial statements

Other Assets not linked to the Concession – Refers to the goodwill from the merger of the subsidiaries RGE and CPFL Geração. In the case of RGE, relates to the purchase of its own subsidiary, with amortization over the remaining term of the concession, in proportion to the projected net income curve for the period (annual rate of 3.67% in 2007). In the case of CPFL Geração, relates to the acquisition of SEMESA (see Note 12), and amortization in proportion to the projected net income curve of the subsidiary, over the remaining term of the lease agreement with the holder of the concession (FURNAS). An annual rate of 5.26% was used in 2007 applied on the balance of the goodwill as of December 31, 2006, amounting to R$ 269,058. These rates are reviewed periodically.

Special Obligations linked to the Concession - Represent the amounts received from consumers and donations not linked to any return, and subsidies for funding investments to respond to applications for electric energy supply in the distribution business. As from the second Tariff Review cycle, the effects of the quotas for reintegration of the values of assets formed with funds from the Special Obligations, irrespective of the date of formation, are eliminated in the accounts by amortization of these obligations. The subsidiary CPFL Piratininga recorded an amount of R$ 1,353 in 2007.

On signing their respective Concession Agreements, the jointly-controlled subsidiaries CERAN, ENERCAN, BAESA and Foz do Chapecó and the indirect subsidiary Paulista Lajeado assumed obligations to the Federal Government in relation to the granting of the concession, as “Public Utilities”. The liabilities are restated annually by the variation in the General Market Price Index – IGP-M, . The rates as of December 31, 2007 are as follows:

CPFL Paulista
BNDES - FINEM I – (Lead bank: BRADESCO)

BNDES - FINEM II – (Lead bank: UNIBANCO)

BNDES - FINEM III – (Lead bank: BANK OF BRASIL)

CPFL Piratininga
BNDES - FINEM I – (Lead bank: UNIBANCO)

92


BNDES - FINEM II – (Lead bank: BANCO DO BRASIL)

RGE
BNDES - FINEM I (Lead bank: Caixa Econômica Federal)

BNDES - FINEM II - (Lead bank: UNIBANCO)

Itaú BBA Bank - Contains restrictive clauses in relation to amendment or changes to the Capital, and any direct or indirect change, transfer or assignment of the share control, or merger, amalgamation or spin-off, without the prior and express agreement of the creditor. The following financial ratios must also be maintained:

ABN AMRO Real Bank - Requires compliance with the following financial ratios:

CPFL Geração

The loans raised from the BNDES by the indirect jointly-controlled subsidiaries ENERCAN, BAESA, CERAN and Foz do Chapecó, establish restrictions on the payment of dividends to the subsidiary CPFL Geração higher than the minimum mandatory dividend of 25% without the prior agreement of the BNDES

ENERCAN's loan from the BNDES and IDB establishes restrictive clauses that require the subsidiary to maintain certain financial ratios within preestablished parameters.

As a result of the damage that occurred in November 2005 in the bypass tunnels of the Campos Novos hydropower plant, which caused the postponement of the start of the commercial operations of the three generator sets, generation of the cash required to meet certain contractual obligations by the deadline originally foreseen was delayed. ENERCAN's management has already asked the respective financial institutions to review the contractual

93


parameters, and has obtained confirmation that this review will not involve declaration of early maturity of the loan contract.

Certain loans and financing of the direct and indirect subsidiaries are subject to early settlement in the event of changes in the Company’s structure or in the corporate structure of the subsidiaries that result in the loss of the share control or of control over management of the Company by the Company’s current shareholders, or in a reduction in the direct or indirect interest of VBC Energia S.A. in the capital of CPFL Paulista to less than 25%.

Furthermore, failure to comply with the obligations or restrictions mentioned could result in default in relation to other contractual obligations (cross default).

The management believes that, except for the coment related to the indirect subsidiary ENERCAN, the Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with the restrictive covenants relating to the loans and financing contracts with financial institutions.

This issue is part of the Company's fund-raising strategy to finance the acquisition of CPFL Jaguariúna. The total capital of CPFL Jaguariúna was acquired on June 18, 2007 through the subsidiary Perácio, and approved by ANEEL in June 2007. The funds raised through the Debenture Issue will accordingly be used for prepayment of the 4th Issue Promissory Notes of the Issuer, CPFL Energia, in turn used in payment for the acquisition of CPFL Jaguariúna.

The objective of the issue was to adjust the financial position of RGE, provide sufficient liquidity to cover the investments in fixed assets and permit the liquidation of debts with maturities to 2009. The total value of the issue willl be R$ 380,000. The first series was subscribed and fully paid in December 2007, in the amount of R$ 100,000, will have a term of 6 years, and a final maturity of December 1, 2013. Interest on the debentures is paid half-yearly, on June 1st and December 1st of each year.

( 17 ) EMPLOYEE PENSION PLANS 
 

The subsidiaries CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and CPFL Geração, through Fundação CESP, the subsidiary RGE, through Fundação CEEE de Seguridade Social (“ELETROCEEE”), the indirect subsidiary CPFL Santa Cruz through BB Previdência – Fundo de Pensão Banco do Brasil and the subsidiary CPFL Jaguariúna through IHPREV Fundo de Pensão, sponsor supplementary retirement and pension plans for their employees. The main characteristics of these plans are as follows:

I – CPFL Paulista

The plan currently in force for the employees of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista is a Mixed Benefit Plan, with the following characteristics:

a) Defined Benefit Plan (“BD”) – in force until October 31, 1997 – a defined benefit plan, which grants a Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit (BSPS), in the form of a lifetime income convertible into a pension, to participants enrolled prior to October 31, 1997, the amount being defined in proportion to the accumulated past service time up to that date, based on compliance with the regulatory requirements for granting. The total responsibility for coverage of actuarial deficits of this plan falls to CPFL Paulista.

b) Mixed model, as from November 1, 1997, which covers:

96


With the modification of the Retirement Plan in October of 1997, a liability was recognized as payable by the subsidiaries in relation to the plan's deficit calculated at the time by the external actuaries of Fundação CESP, to be liquidated in 260 installments, amortized monthly, plus interest of 6% p.a. and restatement at the IGP-DI (FGV). Under the Contractual Amendment, signed with Fundação CESP on July 25, 2006, the payment terms changed to 175 monthly payments and 14 annual installments, in relation to the base date of December 31, 2005, with final maturity on July 31, 2020. The balance of this obligation as of December 31,2007 was R$ 560,190 (R$ 573,715 as of December 31, 2006).

II – CPFL Piratininga

On April 2, 1998, the Supplementary Pensions Department – SPC approved the restructuring of the retirement plan previously maintained by Bandeirante, creating a "Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit Plan – BSPS”, and a "Mixed Benefit Plan", with the following characteristics:

a) Defined Benefit Plan – in force until March 31, 1998 – a defined-benefit plan, which concedes a Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit (BSPS), in the form of a lifetime income convertible into a pension to participants registered up to March 31, 1998, to an amount calculated in proportion to the accumulated past service time up to that date, based on compliance with the regulatory requirements for granting. CPFL Piratininga is fully responsible for covering the actuarial deficits of this Plan.

b) Defined Benefit Plan – in force after March 31, 1998 – defined-benefit type plan, which concedes a lifetime income convertible into a pension in relation to the past service time accumulated after March 31, 1998, based on 70% of the average actual monthly salary for the last 36 months of active service. In the event of death while working or the onset of a disability, the benefits incorporate the entire past service time (including the accumulated time up to March 31, 1998). The responsibility for covering the actuarial deficits of this Plan is equally divided between CPFL Piratininga and the participants.

c) Defined Contribution Plan – implemented together with the Defined Benefit plan effective after March 31, 1998, this is a pension plan up to the granting of lifetime income, convertible (or not) into a pension, and generates no actuarial liability for CPFL Piratininga. The pension plan only becomes Defined Benefit type plan after the concession of the lifetime income, convertible (or not) into a pension, and accordingly starts to generate actuarial liabilities for the subsidiary.

In September 1997, through a contractual instrument of adjustment of reserves to be amortized, Eletropaulo Metropolitana El. São Paulo S.A. (the predecessor of Bandeirante) recognized an obligation to pay referring to the plan deficit determined at the time by the external actuaries of the Fundação CESP, to be liquidated in 260 installments, amortized monthly, plus interest of 6% p.a. and restatement based on the IGP-DI (FGV). Under the Contractual Amendment, signed with Fundação CESP on July 25, 2006, the payment terms were amended to 183 monthly payments and 15 annual installments, in relation to the base date of December 31, 2005, with final maturity on March 1, 2021. The balance of the obligation as of December 31, 2007, is R$ 145,813 (R$ 160,258 as of December 31, 2006).

III – RGE

A defined benefit type plan, with a benefit level equal to 100% of the adjusted average of the most recent salaries, including the presumed Social Security benefit, with a Segregated Net

97


Asset administered by ELETROCEEE. Only those employed prior to the spin-off from CEEE to RGE are entitled to this benefit.

IV – CPFL Santa Cruz

Since November 1, 2007, management of the benefits plan of the subsidiary CPFL Santa Cruz, originally performed by FUNSEJEM, has passed to BB Previdência Fundo de Pensão do Banco do Brasil. The subsidiary CPFL Santa Cruz plan is a defined benefit plan.

V – CPFL Geração

The plans currently in force for the employees of subsidiary CPFL Geração are a Proportional Supplementary Defined Benefit (“BSPS”) and a Mixed Benefit Plan, along the same lines as the CPFL Paulista plan.

With the modification of the Retirement Plan, at that point maintained by CPFL Paulista, in October 1997, a liability was recognized as payable by the subsidiary CPFL Geração, relating to the plan deficit calculated by the external actuaries of Fundação CESP, which is being amortized on a monthly basis, in 260 installments, plus interest of 6% p.a. and restatement according to the IGP-DI (FGV). Under the Contractual Amendment, signed with Fundação CESP on July 25, 2006, the payment terms were amended to 178 monthly installments and 14 annual installments, in relation to the base date of December 31, 2005, with final maturity on October 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2007, the balance of the liability, which is restated annually in line with the evolution of the actuarial deficit calculated in accordance with the criteria of the Supplementary Pensions Department, was R$ 11,318 (R$ 11,575 as of December 31, 2006)

VI – CPFL Jaguariúna

In December 2005, the companies joined the CMSPREV private pension plan, administered by IHPREV Pension Fund. The plan is structured through the defined contribution type.

The amounts recognized in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, for the subsidiaries, in accordance with an appraisal prepared by an external actuary, and assumptions confirmed by Management, and in line with the criteria of CVM Resolution nº 371/00, are presented as follows:

The reserves for contingencies were based on appraisal of the risks of losing litigation to which the Company and its subsidiaries are parties, where a loss is probable in the opinion of the legal advisers and the management of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The principal pending issues relating to litigation, legal cases and tax assessments are summarized below:

102


a) Labor: The principal labor suits relate to claims filed by former employees or unions for additional salary payments (overtime, salary parity, severance payments and other claims). Under the terms of the Bandeirante spin-off protocol, the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga is responsible for the liabilities corresponding to the contingent risks of the employees located in the corresponding regions assumed by CPFL Piratininga, while corporate litigation prior to the date of the spin-off, October 1, 2001, is assumed in the proportion to the percentage of the controlling shareholders prior to the spin-off (56% for Bandeirante and 44% for CPFL Piratininga).

b) Personal damages: Mainly refer to claims for indemnities. These cases include claims relating to accidents in the subsidiaries' electrical networks, damage to consumers, vehicle accidents, etc.

c) Tariff increase: Corresponds to various claims by industrial consumers against the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga as a result of increases imposed by DNAEE Ordinances 38 and 45, dated February 27 and March 4, 1986, when the “Plano Cruzado” economic plan price freeze was in effect.

d) Energy purchased: As result of the loss of free consumers, the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga requested a reduction in the power demand of the initial supply contracts, which was partially granted by ANEEL. The subsidiaries filed a lawsuit on the grounds of disagreement with the physical amounts established by the Agency, alleging a discrepancy in the calculations and making monthly escrow deposits of the amounts in question.

e) FINSOCIAL: Refers to the questioning in the courts of the increase in rate and collection of FINSOCIAL during the period June 1989 to October 1991.

f) PIS and COFINS – Interest on Shareholders’ Equity: at the end of 2005, the Company obtained an injunction with a view to non-payment of PIS and COFINS levied on interest on shareholders’ equity.

g) Income tax: For the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, the entry refers to the injunction obtained in respect of the tax deductibility of CSLL in calculating IRPJ. In the case of the subsidiary RGE, it refers to a request for suspension of a decision of the Federal Revenue Office, in order to considering the deductibility of amounts paid to supplement the retirement provisions of beneficiaries of Fundação ELETROCEEE.

h) Other - Tax: Refers to other suits in progress at the judicial and administrative levels and of a regulatory nature resulting from the subsidiaries' operations, relating to INSS, FGTS and SAT tax issues.

i) Possible losses: The Company and its subsidiaries are parties to other suits in which management, supported by its legal advisers, believes that the chances of a successful outcome are possible, due to a solid defensive position in these cases. It is not yet possible to predict the outcome of the courts’ decisions or any other decisions on similar cases considered to be probable or remote. Consequently, no alowances were provided. The claims relating to possible losses as of December 31, 2007 were as follows: (i) R$ 211,432 for labor cases (R$ 168,847 as of December 31, 2006); (ii) R$ 398,739 for civil cases relating to personal injuries, environmental damages and tariff increases (R$ 421,474 as of December 31, 2006); and (iii) R$ 466,769 referring to claims on tax issues, principally Income Tax, ICMS (VAT), PIS and COFINS (R$ 327,475 as of December 31, 2006).

j) Other - Escrow Deposits - Income Tax: refers to discussion of the deductibility for income tax purposes of expense recorded in 1997 in respect of the welfare deficit of the pension plan of employees of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista in relation to Fundação CESP, due to the renegotiation and renewal of debt in that year. After consulting the Brazilian Federal Income Office, the subsidiary CPFL Paulista obtained a favorable answer in Note MF/SRF/COSIT/GAB nº 157 of April 9, 1998, and used the tax deductibility of the expense, thereby generating tax loss carryforwards in that year. In March 2000, CPFL Paulista was assessed by the tax inspectors in relation to use of the tax loss carryforwards in 1997 and 1998. In 2007, as a result of the legal decision demanding the deposit to permit continuity of the discussions, the Company made an escrow deposit of R$ 360,255 (R$ 373,116 restated to December 31, 2007). Based on the updated position of the legal counsel in charge of this case, the risk of loss continues to be classified as remote.

103


Based on the opinion of their legal advisers, Management of the Company and of its subsidiaries consider that there are no significant contingent risks that are not covered by adequate provisions in the Financial Statements, or that might result in the significant impact on future earnings.

( 32 ) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OPERATING RISKS 
 

32.1 RISK CONSIDERATIONS

The business of the Company and its subsidiaries comprises principally generation, sale and distribution of electric energy. As public service concessionaires, the operations and tariffs of its principal subsidiaries are regulated by ANEEL.

The principal market risk factors that affect their business are the following:

Exchange Rate Risk: This risk derives from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses and cash constraints on account of fluctuations in exchange rates, increasing the balances of foreign currency denominated liabilities. The Company and its subsidiaries generally protect themselves against the risks of raising funds in foreign currency by contracting swap operations, so that the liabilities are indexed to the variation in the CDI (Note 15). The Company’s subsidiaries are also exposed in their operations to exchange variations in the purchase of electric energy from Itaipu. The compensation mechanism - CVA protects the companies against possible losses, as mentioned in Note 3. These operations are recorded on the accrual basis and in accordance with the conditions of the contractual instrument.

Interest Rate Risk: This risk is derived from the possibility of the Company and its subsidiaries incurring losses due to fluctuations in interest rates that increase financial expenses on loans, financing and debentures. For the loans taken out in local currency, the Company and its subsidiaries set against regulatory assets restated in accordance with the variation in the SELIC rate. The subsidiaries have also tried to increase the portion of loans tied to the variation in the TJLP, an index less susceptible to the oscillations of the financial market.

Credit Risk: This risk arises from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses resulting from difficulties in receiving amounts billed to customers. This risk is evaluated by the Company and its

113


subsidies as low due to the fragmentation of the number of costumers and the policy of collections and supplies cuts to defaulting costumers.

Risk of Energy Shortages: The energy sold by the subsidiaries is basically generated by hydropower plants. A prolonged period of low rainfall could reduce the volume of water in the reservoirs of the power plants and result in losses based on the increase in costs of purchasing energy or a reduction in revenues with the adoption of a new rationing program, like the one in 2001. Due to the current level of the reservoirs, the National Electric Energy System Operator (“ONS"), does not envisage another rationing program in 2008.

Risk of Acceleration of Debts: The subsidiaries have loan agreements, financing and debentures with restrictive clauses (covenants) normally applicable to these kinds of operation, related to compliance with economic and financial ratios, cash generation and others. These covenants have been complied with and do not limit the capacity to operate normally.

32.2 VALUATION OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company and its subsidiaries maintain operating and financial policies and strategies aimed at ensuring the liquidity, security and profitability of their assets. As a result, control and follow-up procedures are in place on the transactions and balances of financial instruments, to monitor the risks and current rates in relation to those used in the market.

The principal financial asset and liability instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries, as of December 31, 2007, are described below, together with the criteria for their valuation and appraisal in the financial statements:

Cash and Banks: Comprise cash, bank accounts and short-term cash investments. The market value of these assets approximates to the amounts stated in the balance sheets (note 4).

Regulatory Assets and Liabilities: Basically comprise the Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment, Free Energy, Parcel “A”, Assets and Liabilities relating to Review and Adjustment Tariff, low income subsidy and others. These credits and debits are derived from the effects of the 2001 rationing plan and other amounts relating to the deferral of tariff costs and gains and changes in the tax legislation. These amounts are valued at book value, in accordance with criteria defined by ANEEL, with the characteristics described in note 3.

Loans and Financing: Are valued in accordance with the criteria stipulated in the contracts, with the characteristics defined in note 15.

Debentures: The debentures issued by the subsidiaries are traded on the market and are valued in accordance with the criteria stipulated at the time of issue, according to the characteristics defined in note 16.

Investments in subsidiaries: The Company has investments valued in accordance with the equity method in companies whose stock is traded on the capital markets. Company management considers that the trading value of these shares does not represent the market value of the respective companies, given the reduced volume of transactions in this stock.

114


The carrying values of the principal financial instruments of the Company and the subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, compared with market fundraising costs, as defined above, are as follows:

    Parent Company

Total    6,423,358    6,351,017    5,243,156    5,362,462 
         

The estimated market value of these financial instruments of the Company and its subsidiaries were based on models that discount future cash flows to present value, comparison with similar transactions contracted towards the end of 2007 and 2006 and comparisons with average market parameters. In cases where there are no similar transactions in the market, principally related to the loan linked to the regulatory assets and credits receivable from CESP, the subsidiaries assumed that the market value corresponds to the respective book value.

( 33) LEGISLATION CHANGES - AMENDMENTS TO LAW 6.404/76 - LAW 11.638/07
 

Law 11.638/07 was enacted on December 28, 2007, amending, revoking and introducing additional provisions in Brazilian Company Law (Law 6.404/76) relating to disclosure and preparation of Financial Statements. These changes came into effect as from January 1, 2008 and are summarized below:

a) Pre-fixed financial assets and liabilities should be adjusted to present value, if the effects are relevant;
b) Certain financial instruments and derivatives should be recorded at a fair value;
c) Recording of assets and liabilities should be recorded at market value in the case of mergers, amalgamations or spin-offs between unrelated parties.
d) Substitution of Statement of Changes in Financial Position - DOAR by the Statement of Cash Flows and mandatory disclosure of the Statement of Value-added;
e) Inclusion of new subgroups of accounts as Intangible in assets and the Adjustment of Equity Valuation Account in Shareholders’ Equity;

The Law also requires the rules issued by the CVM to be in line with international accounting standards, based on the IASB rules.

The Company has already adopted some of the policies established by the new Law, such as disclosure of the Statements of Cash Flow (Appendix I) and the Statement of Value-Added (Appendix II) and is analyzing the impact of the other changes required by the law, which are to be applied in full during 2008, pursuant to the rules published by the regulatory authorities.
