4.1. Payroll and benefits

In 3Q11 payroll and benefits increased by R$ 42.9 million or 11.2%, from R$ 384.2 million to R$ 427.1 million, due to the following:

  • Reversion of R$ 13.4 million, in 2010, referent to the provision for Profit Sharing (PLR) in 2009, with an impact of R$ 20.1 million between the periods;
  • Adjustment of actuarial calculation relating to the migration of employees from the Defined Benefits Plan to Sabesprev-Mais in 2010, amounting to R$ 3.9 million;
  • Increase of R$ 8.5 million due to compensation related the Government Severance Indemnity Fund (FGTS), as a result of a higher number of lay-offs this quarter; and
  • 8% increase in wages since May 2011, with an impact of approximately R$ 31.6 million.

The aforementioned increases were offset by a reduction of R$ 21.5 million, referring to the actuarial liability of the G0 Plan. Since 2011, these expenses have been recognized net of the payments of the undisputed party (benefits of Law no. 4819/58).

4.2. Supplies

In 3Q11, expenses with supplies increased by R$ 6.2 million or 17.1%, when compared to the same quarter of 2010, from R$ 36.3 million to R$ 42.5 million. The main factor for this variation was the expenses with maintenance of systems.

4.3. Treatment supplies

Treatment supplies expenses in 3Q11 were R$ 5.7 million, or 18.0% higher than in 3Q10, from R$ 31.6 million to R$ 37.3 million. The main factors were:

  • Increase of R$ 2.0 million in the consumption of aluminum polychloride in replacement of the aluminum sulphate at the Water Treatment Station of Guaraú; and
  • Increase of R$ 1.0 million in chlorine consumption due to the climate and water reservoirs conditions.

Page 4 of 11

4.4. Services

In 3Q11 this item increased R$ 23.9 million or 10.8%, from R$ 221.2 million to R$ 245.1 million. The main factors were:

  • Public and Private Partnership Agreement of the Alto Tietê Production System, with an increase of R$ 8.4 million as expected for the second year of the contract and start-up in September 2011;
  • Preventive and corrective maintenance in the water supply and sewage service systems, amounting to R$ 6.7 million; and
  • Connection and sewage network maintenance in the amount of R$ 5.2 million, due to the intensification of the fight against losses and to comply with work execution terms required by the ARSESP.

4.5. Electric power

In 3Q11 this item increased R$ 11.6 million or 8.8%, from R$ 132.3 million to R$ 143.9 million.

This result is associated to the increase in the produced volume and the average tariff increase in the free and captive market of approximately 5.9% in the period.

4.6. General expenses

In 3Q11 general expenses increased R$ 28.1 million or 16.9%, from R$ 166.1 million to R$ 194.2 million, due to the provision for legal contingencies.

4.7. Depreciation and amortization

This item increased R$ 27.0 million or 19.1%, from R$ 141.2 million to R$ 168.2 million, due to the amortization term adjustment between the asset’s useful life and the contract effectiveness, whichever is the shortest one, recurring for the next quarter.

4.8. Credit write-offs

Credit write-offs dropped R$ 24.2 million or 58.5%, from R$ 41.4 million to R$ 17.2 million, mainly due to the conclusion of the complementation of provisions on the billing of private customers and public municipal entities.

5. Financial expenses and revenues

Interest and charges on domestic loans and financing 100.8 77.8 (23.0) (22.8)

5.1. Financial expenses

In 3Q11 financial expenses increased R$ 58.6 million, or 72.6%. The main factors that influenced this result were:

  • Increase in the amount relating to lawsuit in the amount of R$ 68.4 million mainly due to the lower expense basis in 3Q10 as a result of the reversal of provisions in the amount of R$ 66.8 million;
  • Interest related to the Eurobonds, in the amount of US$ 350 million, in December 2010, which increased R$ 11.5 million; and
  • Decrease in interest by R$ 23.0 million, on domestic loans and financing, mainly due to the amortization of the 8 th debenture in June 2011.

Page 5 of 11

5.2. Financial revenues

Financial revenues increased by R$ 35.4 million, as a result of higher volume for financial investments due to the increase in cash position.

6.1. Monetary variations on liabilities

The effect on the monetary variations on liabilities in 3Q11 was R$ 548.0 million higher, compared to 3Q10, due to:

  • Exchange variation on foreign loans and financing in the amount of R$ 544.9 million, due to the 18.8% appreciation of the U.S. Dollar in 3Q11 compared to the 6.0% depreciation in 3Q10; and
  • Increase in the amount of other financial expenses relating to lawsuits in the amount of R$ 10.6 million.

6.2. Monetary variations on assets

Monetary variations on assets decreased R$ 2.3 million, mainly due to the higher volume of agreements reached in 3Q10.

7. Operating indicators

Operating indicators

The water loss ratio closed the period at 25.7% versus 26% in the same period in 2010, reflectig the resumption of services agreements, which were being developed at a slower pace in previous periods. It is important to mention that this index is a moving average which will have a gradual impact.

It is worth mentioning that the evolution of number of calls per employee increased from 852 in 3Q10 to 876 in 3Q11, up 2.8% in the period.

8. Loans and Financing

In October the company used its cash to anticipate the total redemption of outstanding first and second series of 9 th issue debentures, with the consequent cancellation of the issue. The 9 th issue was conducted in October 2008 in two (2) series, totaling R$ 220 million. The 1 st Series amounted to R$100 million, yielding CDI+2.75% and maturing BID in five (5) years, and the 2nd Series amounted to R$ 120 million, yielding IPCA+12.87%, maturing in seven (7) years.

The Company is in process of taking out two loan operations, one of them with the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES), BIRD at the loan amount of R$ 183.3 million and another one with the Federal Savings Bank (CAIXA), at the loan amount of R$ 215 million.

Both of them were already approved by the executive boards of BNDES and CAIXA and agreements must be signed by the end of 2011. The proceeds obtained with these loans aim at financing water and sewage projects.
