Investments to meet regulatory demands: The first stage of the concession's life cycle is marked by negative cash generation, due to investments necessary to meet regulatory obligations and expand copper infrastructure
Return on invested capital: The second stage marked by growth, maturity and decline of concession results, due to increased competition, arrival of new technologies, change in customer's consumption profile, and lack of adequate regulatory evolution (obligations, fines, SLAs, pay phones) , which put the Concession at a marked disadvantage and an unsustainable return going forward
Concession imbalance: Since some point around 2016, concession was no longer sustainable, with deep imbalances between revenues, costs, capex, obligations and cash needs.
DE-AVERAGING: With the Concession term ending in 2025, and while Law 13,879 (PLC 79) is not yet regulated, Company is adopting a "De-averaging strategy", with Proactive regulatory action and Operational efficiency plans to mitigate the negative NPV impact generated by the current unsustainable concession operation.
"De-averaging" approach allows for a very granular analysis of copper's profitability and the design of action plan at the individual Central Office (CO) / Station level, leading to a significant cost reduction possibility
18 thousand Central Offices (CO) / Stations analyzed
(Analyzed for each CO: revenue, customers served, competition context, maintenance cost, etc.).
COs / Stations characterized by 3 profitability groups
Adopt actions according to the individual archetype result of the Central Office

Addressable Costs
Potential cash cost savings of R\$ 500M in the short/medium term and R\$ 1B in the medium/long term
Radical shift in CAPEX allocation during 2019, in line with strategic plan, with a focus on deploying fiber (hp's and HC's), refarming 1.8GHz sites to 4G and 4.5G and reducing legacy investments









Estimated
In face of the global COVID-19 pandemics, Company quickly established a Crisis Response team, focusing both on ensuring full business continuity for its operations, as well as a formal process to monitor, analyze and respond to potential impacts with appropriate contingency plans in all fronts

In summary, Oi continues to execute diligently on its strategic plan, and is working on multiple fronts of the company's transformation, with close monitoring of all its key operational, financial and strategic goals
