5.1. Payroll and benefits

5.3. Treatment supplies

Treatment supplies expenses in 2014 were R$ 20.5 million or 8.5% higher than in 2013, from R$ 240.7 million to R$ 261.2 million, due to the following:

· Consumption increase in aluminum sulfate, with an impact of R$ 7.0 million, chiefly due to a 14.0% increase in production volume at the Taiaçupeba Water Treatment Station;

Services, in the amount of R$ 1,314.9 million, grew R$ 202.7 million or 18.2%, in comparison to the R$ 1,112.2 million in 2013. The main factors were:

· Advertising campaigns, in the amount of R$ 58.7 million, mainly due to the intensification of the ‘R ational Use of Water ’ campaign;

· Reversal of the provision for expenses, totaling R$41.4 million, due to the end of the agreement with the São Paulo Municipal Government; non-recurring;

Page 5 of 13

The increases above were partially offset by the R$ 43.3 million drop in the provision for the Municipal Fund for Environmental Sanitation and Infrastructure , as a result of the decrease in revenues with the municipality of São Paulo.

5.7. Depreciation and amortization

R$ 133.4 million increase or 15.3%, reaching R$ 1,004.5 million in comparison to the R$ 871.1 million recorded in 2013, largely due to the beginning of operations of intangible assets, in the amount of R$ 4,1 billion.

7.1.1. Financial expenses

Financial expenses grew R$ 41.0 million. The main reasons were:

· R$ 21.8 million decrease in interest and charges on domestic loans and financing, mainly due to the higher interest capitalization occurred in 2014, versus 2013;

· Other financial expenses increased R$ 55.2 million, largely due to the greater recognition of interest arising from the beginning of operation of two sewage treatment plants financed through leases, in the amount of R$ 47.9 million.

7.1.2. Financial revenues

Financial revenues increased R$ 29.9 million or 9.9%, due to financial investments indexed to CDI, held in the period, as a result of the increase in the Interbank Deposit Certificate (CDI) in 2014 (10.8%), versus 2013 (8.2%).

7.2.1. Monetary/exchange rate variation on liabilities

The effect on the monetary/currency exchange variation on liabilities in 2014 was R$ 146.3 million, higher than in 2013, especially due to:

· An increase of R$ 25.6 million in expenses with monetary variation on domestic loans and financing, chiefly due to the increase in the IPCA and TR (6.4% and 0.9%, respectively) compared to 2013 (5.9% and 0.2%, respectively);

· An upturn of R$ 77.9 million in expenses, considering exchange variation on loans and financing, due to the increase in the debt balance, as a result of new fundings, totaling R$458.7 million; and

· Other monetary variations, with an increase of R$42.8 million, chiefly due to the monetary restatement of lawsuits, totaling R$38.0 million.

9. Indicators

9.1. Operating

The water loss ratio has continued decreasing, closing 2014 at 21.3%. The same occurred with the measured water loss ratio which dropped from 31.2% in 2013 to 29.8% in 2014.

It is worth noting that the reduction in the water loss indicators in 2014 was influenced by the intensification in pressure management in the operation of the supply systems, an operational practice designed to manage the current water shortage, reducing its impacts on the supply of the population. This operational practice has an effect in the calculation of loss indicators in the period in which it is adopted, resulting in lower loss indicators, which should not be interpreted only as the result of initiatives to reduce losses, but as the result of an atypical and temporary situation.

Regarding the water volume produced there was a 7% decline, despite the 2,8% increase in the population served.
