In 3Q09, net operating revenue totaled R$ 1.6 billion, a 2.3% increase compared to 3Q08. Costs and expenses stood at R$ 1.2 billion, 11.1% higher than in 3Q08. EBITDA dropped 11.5%, from R$ 697.4 million in 3Q08 to R$ 617.1 million in 3Q09.

Earnings before financial expenses (EBIT) decreased 30.2%, from R$ 662.5 million in 3Q08 to R$ 462.6 million in 3Q09.

2. Gross operating revenue

In 3Q09, gross operating revenue grew R$ 31.9 million, or 1.9%, from R$ 1.72 billion in 3Q08 to R$ 1.75 billion in 3Q09. The main reasons for this increase were the 0.2% tariff adjustment as of September 2009 and the 0.7% growth in total billed volume.

This performance was influenced by the following factors: i) the lower average temperature in the period; ii) the lower billing in the industrial segment in ranges above 500 m³/month due to the signing of firm demand contracts and the closures and/or production cutbacks at certain industrial units; iii) the lower volume in the non-residential segment due to actions under the Rational Water Use Program (PURA) at properties owned by the São Paulo State Government and the São Paulo Municipal Government.

3. Billed volume

The following tables show billed water and sewage volume per customer category and region in 3Q08, 3Q09, 9M08 and 9M09.

4.1. Payroll and benefits

In 3Q09, payroll and benefits grew R$ 15.6 million or 4.6%, from R$ 339.0 million to R$ 354.6 million, due to the 6.69% increase in wages as of May 2009 and the R$ 1.5 million increase in provisions for pension fund obligations as a result of actuarial calculation in 2009.

4.2. Supplies

In 3Q09, supplies grew R$ 2.1 million, or 5.6%, when compared to the previous year, from R$ 37.4 million to R$ 39.5 million.

• Connection and sewage and water network maintenance in the amount of R$ 11.5 million, mainly due to the pent-up demand for this service and the acceleration of the execution of the service contracts at the Santos coastal region. Other factors were: i) greater allocation of resources in the Water Loss Reduction Program; ii) intensification of the operations to meet the demands of the Córrego Limpo Program with the São Paulo Municipal Government; and iii) repair of the sewage collection networks, especially in the municipality of Praia Grande, optimization of the sewage system in the municipality of São Vicente, and intensification of actions to meet the requirements of the Canal Limpo Program in the municipality of Santos;

• Preventive and corrective maintenance at the water treatment systems in the amount of R$ 10.0 million, due to the following factors: i) initiatives regarding urbanization, landscaping, lighting, sports equipment and leisure, construction of community foundations at the Parque da Integração , as part of the agreement with the São Paulo Municipal Government, in the amount of R$ 4.3 million; ii) maintenance and recovery of reservoirs, equipment and municipal operating areas of the regional systems, in the amount of R$ 2.8 million; and iii) maintenance and recovery of reservoirs, decanters, equipment and operating areas in the Water and Sewage Treatment Stations in the São Paulo Metropolitan Region, in the amount of R$ 1.9 million;

• Hydrometer reading and bill delivery in the amount of R$ 1.9 million, due to the increase in reading services outsourcing, inactive connections survey and the use of new technologies, allowing an increase in security and a more agile system for reading and issuing bills;

• Car rental expenses started in August 2008, due to the replacement of the Company’s own fleet, in the amount of R$ 1.8 million;

• Recruitment of interns in the amount of R$ 1.8 million, started in February 2009. There was no recruitment in 2008; and

• Expenses of R$ 1.7 million with treatment and disposal of sludge related to services provided by the Public-Private Partnership, recurring for the coming quarters.

4.5. Electric power

In 3Q09, electric power expenses grew R$ 7.6 million or 6.7%, from R$ 113.8 million to R$ 121.4 million. There was a 5.16% increase in the free market and the 7.58% increase from the captive market, corresponding to a 6.7% average increase in spending between the markets. The average tariff increase in the free and captive markets was around 10% in the quarter.

4.6. General expenses

In 3Q09, general expenses grew R$ 28.8 million or 24.6%, from R$ 117.0 million to R$ 145.8 million, due to the increase of R$ 30.8 million, mainly in provisions for judicial contingencies.

4.7. Depreciation and Amortization

In 3Q09, depreciation and amortization increased by R$ 1.2 million or 0.7%, from R$ 160.3 million to R$ 161.5 million, due to the higher work transference to permanent assets in operation when compared to same period of previous year.

4.8. Credit write-offs

In 3Q09, credit write-offs grew R$ 10.7 million or 17.6%, from R$ 60.8 million to R$ 71.5 million. From 2Q08, the Company has been making improvements in the accounting provision for losses. Amounts that were being provisioned after 360 days are now registered as provision at the time of the debt appearance. It is a time difference and the methodology, which was being applied in billing the municipalities that are served by the Company in the wholesale, as of 2Q09 is being used also in the billing of individuals. The amount of this complementary provision this quarter was R$ 6.6 million and will be recurring in the coming periods.

Page 5 of 12

4.9. Tax expenses

In 3Q09, tax expenses dropped R$ 13.3 million or 58.6%, mainly due to payment of the TRCF (Regulation, Control and Oversight Fee) to ARSESP (São Paulo State Sanitation and Energy Regulatory Agency) as of July 2008 in the amount of R$ 14.8 million, relating to the first 9 installments of the 2008 annual amount. In 2009, the appropriation of these values has been monthly.

5. Other operating revenues and expenses

In 3Q09, other operating revenues and expenses dropped R$ 132.3 million or 105.5%, mainly as a result of the fixed asset write-off in 3Q08 due to the settlement of the Third Amendment to the GESP Agreement that establishes the full incorporation of the assets verified at the Alto Tietê System’s equity appraisal report.

6.1. Financial expenses

In 3Q09, financial expenses increased R$ 92.1 million or 45.3%, as described below:

• Decrease in interest and charges for domestic financing, as a result of a drop in the payable balance due to the settlement held in the amount of R$ 7.7 million;

7.1. Variation on liabilities

The net effect of the variation on liabilities in 3Q09 was R$ 345.1 million, when compared to 3Q08, due to the:

• R$ 104.7 million profit from the positive variation of R$ 316.9 million as a result of 8.9% US Dollar depreciation in 3Q09 versus 20.3% appreciation in 3Q08, leading to a R$ 212.2 million loss; and

• R$ 29.8 million decrease in monetary variation over loans and financing due to: i) R$ 20.4 million reduction in financing indexed to the IGPM (General Market Price Index) with negative variation of 0.37% in 3Q09, versus 1.55% positive variation in 3Q08; and ii) R$ 9.4 million reduction over financing related to the TR rate which had a lower variation in 3Q09 (0.12%) in comparison to 3Q08 (0.55%) .

7.2. Variation on assets

Variation on assets declined R$ 350.6 million, mainly due to the update of the undisputed amount regarding supplementary retirement and pension remuneration as provided by the Third Amendment to the GESP (São Paulo State Government) made in the previous period.

9. Loans and financing

In October 2009, the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) approved a US$ 600 million loan for Sabesp to continue the works on Projeto Tietê, which is in its third stage. The next step will be an agreement in compliance with the procedures for obtaining the Brazilian government’s guarantee. Sabesp’s counterparty in this financing will be US$ 200 million, for which the company will be seeking partial funding.

Also in October, Sabesp signed financing agreement of US$ 100 million with the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) for the Water Source Program. The company will put up US$ 25 million.
