EDPs consolidated net profit in the 1Q2006 rose 9% YoY.
The regulated core business in Iberia comprising the PPAs and the electricity and gas distribution activities which represent 62% of the Groups consolidated gross profit - posted a stable performance in the 1Q2006 (+€10m).
In the Iberian liberalized market, our electricity generation activity benefited from the sharp rise in wholesale prices during the first months of 2006, contributing for a significant increase in gross profit (+€47m) in the 1Q06.
In the supply business in Iberia, the low flexibility of older clients contracts and the increase of electricity wholesale prices resulted in a deterioration of this activitys gross profit during the period (-€69m).
The publication of the Royal Decree-Law 03/2006 in Spain had a negative impact (-€33m EBITDA) as a result of (i) the provisioning of the potential withdraw of the economic value of the CO2 licenses granted for free related to generation sales to the pool between Jan-06 and Feb-06 (€11m); (ii) the settlement of a provisional €42.35MWh on the unit cost of purchased electricity by the distribution companies during March (€4m) and (iii) the booking of a provision for other potential regulatory risks (€18m).
EDPs renewable energy installed capacity rose by 72% to 1,024MW surpassing for the first time the 1,000 MW threshold and allowing a strong growth of NEOs contribution to EDPs gross profit (+€30m). This was achieved both through organic growth (155 MW) and through acquisitions (Desa 224 MW and Tecneira 50 MW).
Good operating performance at Energias do Brasil and a 31% appreciation of the Brazilian Real during the period resulted in a healthy growth of our Brazilian operations gross profit (+€60m).
The evolution of operating costs (personnel and supplies & services) remained under control, increasing by approximately 3% YoY, in line with average increase of CPI in the markets where EDP operates.
Improvement of Financial Results (+€92m) backed by the substantial reversion (+ 103m) of the 2005 negative impact that resulted from the mark-to-market of the derivative instrument contracted to hedge the value of the CMEC, following the positive impact of the recent increases in interest rates. This was partly offset by the booking, this quarter, of a provision related to financial guarantees given by EDP on Electras debt (Cape Verde).
EDPs consolidated financial debt decreased by 333M€ from December 2005 to €9,130m.

Iberian Generation and Supply: EBITDA fell 13.3% reflecting singular factors in the 1Q2006: i) the publication of RD 3/2006, which withdraws the right to CO2 allowances attributed to the generators under the Spanish NAP, for the amounts equivalent to January and February 2006 emission licences (€ 29m); and ii) the provisioning of commercial losses in Portugal (€ 14m). EDP benefited from high pool prices and a long generation position in the liberalised market in Iberia, which was not fully reflected at the gross profit level, down 2.4%, due to: i) the deficit in CO2 allowances versus CO2 emissions (€ 6m); ii) the mark-to-market of the provision related with the 2005 CO2 allowance deficit (€ 8m); and iii) the mark-to-market of a derivative to cover market price volatility (€ 14m). Excluding the above, the gross profit of the liberalized generation & supply would have increased 5.1%. The gross profit of the generation under PPAs was up 5.3% YoY.
NEO - Renewable Energy: EBITDA more than doubled reflecting the substantial investments EDP made during 2005 (namely the acquisition of Desa in Spain in the 4Q2005), which increased wind installed capacity two fold to 712MW (or 1.024 MW gross installed capacity).
Distribution in Iberia: Despite the strong increase in electricity distributed by EDP in Iberia (+4.9% YoY) and efficiency gains through cost efficiency achieved in the period (-0,8% YoY), EBITDA fell 5.6%. This reflects: in Portugal, the impact of the unanticipated rise in fuel costs and special regime generation volumes on the Portuguese system costs which, together with the inflation cap set for LV customers, created a tariff deficit, which will be recovered with interest by EDPD between 2007 and 2011; in Spain, the application of the RD 3/2006 which modified the settlement mechanism in the system, only recognising a price of €42.35/MWh on the energy purchased by the distributors.
Gas in Iberia: Despite the change in the consolidation method of Portgás (60% proportional in the 1Q2006; equitymethod in 1Q2005), the exceptional necessity to acquire gas in the spot market at high prices by Naturgas had a € 15m negative impact in EBITDA. This is a non-recurring cost item.
Brazil: Activities overseas benefited from a 5% growth in consumption at our DisCos. concession areas. The increase in EBITDA (9% in local currency) would have been even higher (circa 33%), had the non-controllable costs not been above those recognised in the tariffs. In addition, EDP benefited from a 31% appreciation of the Real vs the Euro in the 1Q2006 vs the 1Q2005.
Other: The change in the other & adjustments is mainly due to a € 17m provision booked in the 1Q2005 related to the Spanish tariff deficit. In the 1Q2006 such effect did not have an impact in the P&L, considering that the current legislation assures the recovery of the tariff insufficiency in Spain.

The EDP Groups capital expenditures amounted to €196.0m in the 1Q2006, up 2.5% year-on-year, due to investments made at EDP Groups Iberian Generation business, mostly related to: i) the construction of a second 400 MW CCGT unit at Castejón, which is expected to enter into operations by the end of 2007, and ii) environmental investments made in Sines, Aboño and Soto coal power plants to reduce SO2 and NOx emissions in order to comply with EU directives.
Iberian Generation & Supply - The drop in operating investment at EDP Group generation business in Portugal reflects the end of construction of both Frades hydro plant (192MW - Aug 05) and of Ribatejo III CCGT (392MW - Mar 06). In Spain, EDP continued the construction works of the second 400 MW unit at Castejón CCGT, which is forecasted to start operations by the end of 2007. In the 1Q2006, total investment in this project amounted to €13.3m. During 2006, EDP will start the constructions works of another 400 MW CGGT, which will be located at Soto, and should start operations in 2008. Additionally, in the 1Q2006, EDP invested €25.4m to reduce the SO2 and NOx emissions at Sines, Aboño and Soto power plants, in order to comply with EU directives until the end of 2007. Total estimated environmental investment at EDP Groups Iberian power plants between 2006 and 2008 should amount to approximately €290m.
NEO - Renewable Energy - In the 1Q2006, NEOs operating investment amounted to €16.8m, out of which 94% was invested in wind farms: i) in Spain, NEO invested €11m for the end of the construction of the two wind farms that entered into operation in the 1Q2006 Boquerón (22 MW Jan06) and Belchite (50 MW Fev06), while the balance was invested in some other projects that are expected to enter into service this year, namely Brújula (73 MW), Curiscao (73 MW) and Tarifa (18 MW); ii) in Portugal wind farms investment is mostly related to projects that are expected to enter into operation between 2006 and 2007. Until the end of 2006, an additional 435 MW are expected to enter into service, out of which 155 MW in Portugal and 280 MW in Spain.
Iberian Distribution - Operating investment at EDP Groups Iberian distribution business, which amounted to €57.2m in the 1Q2006, is aimed at improving the quality of service. Nevertheless, in Portugal, the equivalent interruption time (EIT) increased 14 min year-on-year, to 57 min in the 1Q2006, due to both less favourable weather conditions and an incident in one of EDPDs sub-stations, all contributing with an additional 21 min to the 1Q2006 EIT. In Spain, the 1Q2006 EIT of EDPs distribution grid remained stable at 29 min.
Iberian Gas - Operating investment at the Iberian gas business totalled €6.1m in the 1Q2006, out of which 75% was spent in the development of the gas distribution activity. The balance is related to the transport activity in Spain, to sales campaigns, meter readings for new consumption places and to the adaptation of facilities from LPG to NG.
Brazil - Energias do Brasil operating investment decreased 18% vis-à-vis the 1Q2005, since the constructions works on Peixe Angical hydro power plant are now nearing completion (€20m in the 1Q2006 vs. €41m in the 1Q2005). Until the end of 2006, Energias do Brasil is expecting to bring on stream another 75 MW with the end of the construction of São João hydro plant (25 MW) and a new unit in Mascarenhas hydro plant (50 MW). In addition the company already announced the construction of Santa Fé hydro plant (29 MW), which is conditioned to the granting of preliminary environmental licences. Out of the €29.2m invested in the distribution activity, €10m are related to the mandatory universal connection programme Universalização to all low voltage consumers, in the concession areas of Bandeirante, Escelsa and Enersul.
Telecoms - On a pro-forma basis (excluding Comunitels contribution from the 1Q2005), operating investment at Oni increased 70% to €4.1m in the 1Q2006 due to the investments made in direct access centrals (Unbundling of the Local Loop).

CF 1Q2006
EDP Groups cash flow in the period enabled a €333.2m reduction in net debt vis-à-vis the YE2005. Such reduction is explained by:
€576.4m related to the final settlement received in the 1Q2006 from the sale of 14.27% of Galp Energia (80% of €720m), that was divested in the end of 2005;
which was partly offset by:
a lower cash flow before capex, that was affected by two exceptional factors:
i) an increase in the working capital of EDP Distribuição of approximatly €200m, which is mainly explained by the implementation in the Portuguese Distribution activity of the bimonthly invoicing instead of monthly, to reduce billing and posting expenses;
ii) the €49.1m hydro correction payment made to REN during the 1Q2006 following a dry period (hydro coefficient of 0.57 in the 1Q2006).
the financing by HC Energia of 6.08% from the 1Q2006 tariff deficit in the Spanish regulated system (€71m).
Note:
(1) Other adjustments include the substantial reversion (+€103.5m) of the 2005 €118.0m negative impact that resulted from the mark-to-market of the derivative instrument contracted to hedge the effect of interest rate changes on the NPV calculation of the value of the CMEC. This reversion reflects the positive impact of the recent increases in interest rates.

1Q2006
Financial results swing in the 1Q2006 reflect:
A €24.8m increase in income from group and associated cos. mostly resulting from: i) the equity contribution of REN, which reflect the recovery in 1Q2006 of previous years tariff deficits; ii) the improvement in net profit of Edinfor (a net loss of 14.4m in the 1Q2005 vs. a profit of €3.8m in the 1Q2006). In the 4Q2005 Portgás started to be proportionally consolidated (EDP currently owns 72.0% of Portgas. In the 1Q2006 it was 59.6% consolidated).
Net financial interest paid improved 3.1% benefiting from a 40 b.p. drop in the average cost of debt of the Group, which compensated the increase in the average level of debt in the 1Q2006 vs. the 1Q2005.
The Brazilian Real appreciation against the US Dollar in the 1Q2006 (8%) was stronger than in the 1Q2005 (0%). The impact on the dollar denominated debt in Brazil of such currency performance drove Net foreign exchange differences up €1.9m.
The Other financial gains and losses in the 1Q2006 include items with opposite impacts in financial results: i) due to the increase in interest rates, the €118.0m negative impact of the mark-to-market recorded at YE2005, relating to the fair value of a derivative contracted by EDP to hedge the effect of interest rate changes on the NPV calculation of the value of the CMEC, was substantially reverted, in the amount of €103.5m; ii) the fair value of the Groups other derivatives amounted to an additional + €24.0m in the 1Q2006 vis-a-vis 1Q2005; iii) we also recorded a €44.2m provision relating to guarantees we gave for Electras financing, in which EDP assumed the responsibility for 60%. of the total amount.

IBERIAN MARKET
Electricity gross demand in the Iberian market posted a 2.6% increase in the 1Q2006, with electricity demand in Portugal increasing 3.9% and in Spain 2.4%. Alongside with an healthy electricity consumption growth, the Iberian market was characterized by a slow recovery of the traditional hydro levels and by a strong increase in the wholesale prices following higher marginal electricity generation costs and an increase of the thermal output in Spain.
Regulation in Iberia grants Special Regime Producers dispatch priority over all other technologies. In the 1Q2006, SRPs in Iberia represented 20% of gross demand (+0.8 p.p. than 1Q2005). Most of the increase was registered in the Portuguese system in the 1Q2006 SRPs output represented 16% of Gross demand in Portugal vs. 12% in the 1Q2005 and attributable to an increase of the installed capacity in wind farms, which went up 82% vis-à-vis the 1Q2005, to 1,224 MW. In Spain, wind farms installed capacity only increased 11% to 10,020 MW.
Regarding the conventional regime, the electricity generation based on natural gas and coal power plants in Portugal, presented a decline vs. the 1Q2005, as a result of the abovementioned increase in SRPs output and Hydroelectric generation. In Spain, CCGTs generation increased 57%, following an increase of the installed capacity based on this technology, while the electricity output of the coal power plants went down 8.1%.
In this period, is estimated that the CO2 emissions in the Iberian market surpassed the emission allowances granted (2006: 39.0m ton CO2 in Portugal and 174.6m ton CO2 in Spain, including the allowances reserved for new entrants), which in conjunction with the CO2 rights deficit accumulated in 2005 and the high prices of CO2 licences in the 1Q2006, conditioned the utilisation of the coal power plants that have higher inefficiency levels.
EDP (for outputs see Annex)
In the 1Q2006, the output of EDPs power plants in the conventional generation Iberian market decreased 1.7%. In Portugal, the lower utilization of the thermal power plants, as a result of the strong rise of the SRPs output and the hike in international fuel prices, was compensated by the higher utilization of EDPs hydro plants (which represent 50% of its capacity in Portugal) following improved hydrological conditions. In Spain, EDPs electricity generation decreased 5.6%, mostly due to a programmed stoppage in Castejón CCGT during 6 weeks in the 1Q2006 for maintenance works.

65% of EDPs Iberian capacity is bounded to the PPAs low risk profile, providing stability on cash-flows. PPA contracts secure a remuneration based on availability rather than on output, providing a ROA of 8.5% real pre-tax and the pass-through of fuel and CO2 emission costs.
Liberalised Market: i) balance generation and supply positions to hedge market prices volatility;
ii) pass-through marginal cost of generation to final clients.

Because 65% of EDPs installed capacity in Iberia operates under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), the companys Gross Profit is largely protected to generation output swings and fuel costs hikes.
Gross Profit from the plants with PPAs increased 5.3% given the stable return profile of the PPA Capacity Charge and the pass-through of fuel costs via the PPA Energy Charge. According to the PPA contracts, CO2 emissions and licences for the bounded power stations are managed by REN, thus do not impact EDPs Gross Profit. The increase in the PPA Capacity Charge in the period (+3.9%) reflects inflation, the entry into service of Frades (hydro 192MW) in August 2005 (+ €6.6M) and higher availability factors (km) of the thermal power stations (thermal km: 1.059 in 1Q2006 vs. 1.050 in 1Q2005).
The fuel procurement margin (Energy Charge minus Fuel Costs and Auto-consumption) increased from €4.2m in 1Q2005 to €7.5m in 1Q2006 mainly as a result of the higher spreads between EDPs coal acquisition cost and the international coal prices indices (used as benchmark to calculate the PPA Energy Charge).

Gross Profit Analysis
Output: EDPs output in the Iberian liberalised market increased 2.3% in the 1Q2006. In Portugal, electricity generation increased 24.3% following: i) the coming into steam of Unit III of the Ribatejo CCGT in the 4Q2005 (industrial service started March 16, 2006) and ii) the better hydrological conditions in the period. However, the load factor of the Ribatejo CCGT units dropped from an average 75% in the 1Q2005 to an average 60% in the 1Q2006: i) Unit III was still under testing in January; ii) Outputs from Units I and II were reduced in order to rationalize natural gas consumption, since Unit III gas contract was only procured in March; and iii) Unit II was stopped for repairs to the combustion chambers for the replacement of the ceramic shields. In Spain, the 5.6% reduction is explained by the programmed stoppage in Castejón CCGT (387MW) during 6 weeks for maintenance works. This stoppage implied a reduction of 262 GWh in the output, which was not fully compensated by a higher utilisation of the coal power plants.
Gross Profit: In Portugal, Gross Profit was up 73.5% due to: i) an upward revision of the selling price contracted with EDP Comercial (liberalised supply) and; ii) the increased output which steamed from Unit III at Ribatejo and from the hydro plants. In Spain, the 26% rise is explained by: i) the sound increase of the selling price; and ii) a decrease in the average fuel costs; which more than compensated the i) lower generation output; ii) higher costs related with CO2 emissions (€16m in the 1Q2006); and iii) other which include €14m of the mark-to-market of hedge derivatives.
Fuel Costs: In Portugal, the average natural gas cost per MWh increased 22.5%, as a result of the hike in the price of the Brent, to which the natural gas contracts of Ribatejo CCGT are indexed. In Spain, average fuel costs per MWh decreased 4.4% vs. the 1Q2005, mainly as a result of a decrease of the average unit cost of the coal power plants (-7% vis-à-vis the 1Q2005).
CO2 Emissions: In Portugal, there was a negative €1.0 million impact in the 1Q2006 gross profit from a 46 thousand tons of CO2 deficit in the period. Mind that in the 1Q2006 were just accounting for the licences attributed to Units I and II of Ribatejo CCGT. Unit III is expected to receive circa 0.8 million tons of CO2 licences in the 2Q2006. In Spain, CO2 emissions reached 2.8m tons and were 0.3m tons above the estimated emission allowances to be consumed in the period, which had a negative impact of €8m in the gross profit. Additionally, the €28m provision booked in 2005, related to the insufficiency of CO2 allowances for that period (1.4m tons), was updated in order to reflect the current market prices for CO2 (€27/ton in Mar. 2006 vs. €21/ton in Dec. 2005). This had a negative impact of €8m.

PORTUGAL
EBITDA was up 19.8% mostly due to the increase in Gross Profit, as previously explained. The company was also able to cut operating costs by 28.8% as presented below.
Personnel costs dropped 8.8% from the 1Q2005, and Cost with social benefits fell 32.1% due to a drop in pension premiums being accounted for in 2006, following the revision of the actuarial assumptions, namely the increase of the expected return of the fund asset from 6.4% in 2005 to 7.5% in 2006 and the decrease of the discount rate from 5% in 2005 to 4.6% in 2006.
The swing in Other operating costs / (revenues) mostly respects a regularization of own work capitalised of previous years (€5.9m) in the 1Q2006 whereas in the 1Q2005 the figure includes the cost related to the payment of the municipal tax (€2.6m) that was due following the sale and purchase agreement for the acquisition from REN of the thermal power plant sites (Carregado, Tunes, e Setúbal).
SPAIN
The sound performance at the Gross Profit level was not entirely reflected at the EBITDA level due to the impact of the application of the RD 3/2006.
RD 3/2006: The Spanish Government, aiming for a reduction of the tariff deficit for 2006, approved in February 24, 2006, the Royal Decree-Law 3/2006, which modifies the settlement mechanism of the energy sold by generators and purchased by distributors in the pool by the same company, and reconsiders the value of the CO2 emission allowances granted free of charge to the generation companies. In light of HCs interpretation of the current legislation, the total tariff deficit estimated for the period amounts to €1.2bn, of which HC Energia has to finance 6.08% (€71m). This was not deducted from revenues considering that the current legislation assures its recovery. Regarding CO2 allowances, EDP booked a €29m provision to cover the potential return of the CO2 emission allowances granted free of charge for the periods of January and February 2006 (1.5m tons). As from March 2006, according to the interpretation done on the RD 3/2006, only the CO2 emission allowances, which respect to electricity generation sold in the Spanish pool, should be deducted from generation revenues.

PORTUGAL
EDP retained two thirds of the liberalised market in Portugal in the 1Q2006. Total energy supplied to liberalised clients grew 21.4% YoY to 2,448 GWh in the 1Q2006, equivalent to 20% of the total electricity consumption in Portugal in the period (vs. 18% in the 1Q2005). This increase in volumes sold contributed (-€0.7m) to the drop in gross profit because the Portuguese supply unit still bears average selling prices to final clients bellow its sourcing costs with the energy management unit.
The 4.5% increase in the supply net selling price (after TPA tariffs) contributed +€2.8m to gross profit and follows the upward revision of the commercial conditions of clients contracts upon maturity and the capture of new clients with better price conditions.
The Supply activity electricity needs are sourced through a fixed price contract established with EDPs energy management unit. The reference price for this contract was reviewed in the 4Q2005 to reflect updated expectations regarding electricity wholesale prices. This upward revision of the electricity cost accounts for €27.1m in gross profit drop.
Other operating costs/(revenues) in the 1Q2006 include: i) costs with consumption deviation in the 1H2005 (-€ 6.5m) and Jan06 (-€ 1.2m); ii) provisions for commercial losses (-€4.4m) and; iii) provisions for bad debtors (-€2.1m).
SPAIN
The strong increase of the volumes sold in the Spanish liberalised market, is the result of: i) the 1,500 GWh awarded to HC Energia in the 2006 RENFEs public electricity supply tender (out of 2,287 GWh); and ii) the launch of a marketing campaign in the last months to promote a dual-fuel offer and an enhanced service proposition to small clients.
The €45m decrease in the gross profit of the Spanish Supply activity is explained by: i) the increase of the electricity purchase costs as a result of the hike in wholesale prices; ii) a 13% increase of the net selling price (after TPA tariffs) following the revision of the commercial conditions of all existing contracts upon maturity and the capture of new clients with better price conditions; and iii) an increase of the supplied volumes in a context of high procurement costs.
It is important to highlight that both in new supply contracts and in the renegotiation of the current contracts, the selling price is being settled above an estimated marginal generation cost for the system. However, in accounting terms, the Spanish Supply business P&L is reflecting the market prices volatility.

EDP has been investing substantially in renewable energies. In 2005, the company acquired: i) five wind farms from Tecneira, in Portugal, with 50 MW in operation and another 71 MW in the pipeline, which are expected to enter into operation until 2007, ii) the Ortiga and Safra wind farms, in Portugal, with a total of 53 MW in the pipeline to start operations in 2006; iii) Desa, in Spain, with 224 MW in operation and an additional 1,186 MW in the pipeline until 2010, iv) Ider in Spain with 114 MW under development and that are expected to start operations in 2007 and v) Weom in France with 30 MW under development, which are expected to enter into operation until the end of 2006.
As of march 2005, NEO had a total installed capacity of 788 MW(1), or 1,024 MW including the parks that EDP consolidates through the equity method and Tecneira (which did not yet contribute to 1Q2006 electricity revenues). Until the end of 2006, an additional 435 MW are expected to enter into service, out of which 155 MW in Portugal and 280 MW in Spain.
Gross profit & EBITDA benefited from higher tariffs experienced in the 1Q2006, from the investments made by EDP during 2005 (Desa: 224 MW) and from the entry into operation of some additional capacity in both Portugal (15MW) and Spain (140 MW).

By the end of the 1Q2006, EDP Groups renewable installed capacity in Iberia totalled 788 MW (1) of which 712 MW of wind 151 MW in Portugal and 561 MW in Spain. In Portugal, the re-powering of Vila Nova (+6 MW Mar05), Fonte da Quelha/Alto Talefe (+3 MW Sep05) and Pena Suar (+6 MW Dec05) wind farms allowed NEO to increase its wind installed capacity by 15 MW year-on-year. In Spain, wind installed capacity increased 339 MW on the back of last years acquisition of Desa, with 224 MW in operation, and of the entry into service of Las Lomillas (25 MW Jun05), Sotonera (19 MW Jul05), Boquerón (22 MW Jan06) and Belchite (50 MW Fev06) wind farms.
Electricity emissions from renewable sources in Iberia totalled 550 GWh in the 1Q2006, up 84.3% year-on-year, on the back of the additional capacity that was acquired and brought on stream, but also as a result of an increase in the number of equivalent service hours of our wind farms to 649 hours from 608 hours in the 1Q2005 (the equivalent to an increase in the load factor to 30.0% from 28.2%).
Gross Profit more than doubled benefiting from the increase in both the installed capacity and load factor as well as from higher average selling prices at our Spanish wind farms. During the 1Q2006, the energy produced by our Spanish wind farms was sold to the pool at an average price of € 97/MWh, which compares to € 71/MWh in the 1Q2005.
Operating costs reflect: i) an additional D 2.1m that were spent in O&M costs (S&S) with the maintenance of existing wind farms; ii) a € 0.5m increase in charges (S&S) from EDP S.A. following the Group policy of allocating to business units the costs of services rendered by the holding; iii) an increase in the number of employees (82 employees from the acquisition of Desa) and iv) a € 1.5m non-recurring expense related to an indemnity that NEO had to pay as a consequence of a delay in the re-start of operations of the Sidergas power plant (20 MW waste) after a stoppage for maintenance.
All in all EBITDA improved from € 15.5m in the 1Q2005 to € 39.4m in the 1Q2006, which represents a 62.6% EBITDA margin, up 8.2 p.p. year-on-year.
Depreciations rose from 6.9m in the 1Q2005 to 16.7m in the 1Q2006 mostly due to the previously mentioned increase in the installed capacity.
(1) Installed Capacity from Tecneira wind farms (50 MW - Sept. 2005) was not considered in these figures because it did not contribute to NEO Electricity Sales in the 1Q2006.
Load Factor: number of equivalent hours to the output of a wind farm relative to the total number of hours in the period, considering the date on entry into industrial service of each wind farm

Gross profit from EDP Group distribution activity in Iberia decreased 3.1% year-on-year:
(a) despite a 6.2% increase in allowed revenues, gross profit from the distribution activity in Portugal decreased 2.2% reflecting into a €31.5m tariff difference to recover (compared with €3.9m in the 1Q2005) - out of that tariff difference, €28.9m relate to the existence of a €115m 2006 tariff deficit attributable to EDPD (to be recovered with interests between 2007 and 2011);
(b) in Spain, despite a €0.5m increase in the electricity regulated revenues, gross profit was affected by a €3.9m negative impact from the application of the RD 3/2006. This impact on the distribution activity is not definitive because the €42.35/MWh price recognized by the RD that modifies the settlement mechanism was established on a provisional basis.
Operating costs decreased 0.8% on the back of both a tight control over supplies and services, which increased by a mere 0.5%, and lower costs with social benefits.

The increase in HV and MV segments was driven by the co-generators consumption from the regulated system (+1.7 p.p.) that opted to sell to the system the energy they produced at special regimes prices, thus benefiting from the tariff differential between the two regimes. Excluding the impact from co-generators consumption as well as the temperature (-0.7 p.p.) and working days (+0.9 p.p.) effects, consumption would have increased 3.8%.
The decrease in the number of non-regulated clients reflects the transfer of HV and MV clients back to the binding system following an increase in electricity prices in the liberalised market. As a result, between the 4Q2005 and the 1Q2006, electricity sales to the non-regulated system decreased 7.7%.
EDPDs allowed revenues increased 6.2% year-on-year
a) The Use of the Distribution Grid (UDGr) revenues increased 1.8% on the back of higher electricity-flow into EDPDs network, which compensated a 2.8% decrease in the average tariff for the UDGr. Note that during the 2006 Tariffs Review, ERSE changed the calculation formula of the UDGr activity allowed revenues by introducing a fixed component ( €100.7m in the 1Q2006), independent of electricity distributed volumes.
b) Allowed revenues for the Network Supply (NS) and the Supply in the Public System (SPS) activities reflect: i) a 50bp decrease in the regulated rate of return for these activities and ii) a lower regulated asset base, which followed the transfer of some assets to EDP Soluções Comerciais, a company that was created in 2005 to manage the commercial systems,

supply commercial services to EDPD and EDPC, and allow the capture of synergies within the supply activities and a tight control over commercial costs in an increasingly liberalised environment. ERSE accepted as part of EDPDs controllable costs the remuneration and depreciation of these transfered assets. This is reflected in the 9.7% increase in structural commercial costs for the NS and SPS activities.
c) Allowed Revenues for the 1Q2006 also include €30.8m related to the recovery of previous years costs and €6.0m from the recovery of costs incurred within the scope of the EDPDs Human Resources Restructuring Programme (HRRP).
Costs with electricity purchases rose 20.2% year-on-year as a result of: i) a 3.8% increase in electricity delivered to the distribution grid, ii) an increase in energy acquisition from Special Regime Producers, iii) higher average fuel costs and iv) an increase in the average Global Use of the System tariff.
Electricity gross profit for the 1Q2006 came €31.5m below allowed revenues, of which €28.9m are related to the 2006 tariff deficit. We recall that in 2005, the unanticipated rise in fuel costs and special regime generation volumes led to a significant increase in the systems costs, which, along with the fact that 2006 increases in LV clients tariffs were limited to inflation, created a tariff deficit of €369m. Of this amount, approximately €115 million were attributed to EDPD and will be recovered with interests between 2007 and 2011.

The net reduction in the number of employees was of 228 between the 1Q2005 and the 1Q2006. This reduction was achieved through the 2005 Human Resources Restructuring Programme (119 employees in Dec 2005), the transfer to EDP Valor of 91 employees during 2005 and the achievement of 39 retirements and early retirements during the 1Q2006.
Personnel costs increased 3.3% year-on-year (or 1.5% if we exclude personnel costs capitalisation and severance payments) following a 2.74% average salary increase in 2006, a €0.7m increase in bonuses paid to employees, and the fact that the 1Q2005 did not yet accounted for the 2.88% average salary increase approved for the year 2005, all more than compensating the savings achieved through personnel reduction.
Costs with social benefits decreased 24.2% year-on-year on the back of: i) a €1.5m decrease in pension premiums and provisions for medical care because of both an increase in the expected return on Pension Funds assets and a decrease in the discount rate, and ii) the accounting in the 1Q2005 of a €3.3m cost related to an adjustment made to the provision for costs with early retirees created within the scope of the HRRP.

Gross profit of the Spanish Distribution activity decreased 13.0% as a result of: i) the negative impact of the application of the RD 3/2006, according to its interpretation (-€ 3.9m); and ii) an increase in the remuneration for the regulated activities recognised in the 2006 tariff (+€ 0.5m):
i) the RD 3/2006 approved in February 24, 2006, considers that as of March 2006, the generation sales and the distribution purchases of electricity, made simultaneously and within the same group, are netted and priced at a provisional €42.35/MWh (average generation cost of the conventional regime included in the 2006 tariff). HCs distribution purchases that were netted against its own generation amounted to 339 GWh (14% of total distribution purchases in the 1Q2006). The impact of this measure (€ 3.9m) is accounted in the distribution business, as the difference between the acquisition price of this electricity and the € 42.35/MWh. According to the RD the final settlement price should be adjusted before year-end to reflect transparent and objective prices of the electricity markets;
ii) regarding the regulated revenues, according to the RD 1556/2005 that sets the revenues for the Spanish regulated activities for 2006, of the €3,016.7m attributed to the electricity distribution activity, €96.1m or 3.2% were allocated to our Spanish Distribution activity.

In April 2006, EDP concluded the reinforcement of its stakes in Portgás and Setgás from 59.6% and 10.1% to 72.0% and 19.8%, respectively, after the non-opposition by the Portuguese Competition Authority to the acquisition by EDP of Endesas indirect holdings in these companies. Such operation strengthened EDPs foothold on the Portuguese gas market where it expects to increase its client base upon liberalisation.
In Spain, through Naturgas, EDP changed its commercial image and launched a strong marketing campaign to promote a dual-fuel offer and to capture new clients in the liberalised market. The strong increase in clients (+126,158) and in volumes (+971 GWh) reflects the success attained by Naturgas, from this marketing effort.
In the 1Q2006, Naturgas was affected by an exceptional necessity to acquire gas in the spot market at higher prices than those foreseen under the companys current sourcing contracts. This led to an additional non-recurring cost of €15m which had a negative impact on Naturgas gross margin.

In the end of September 2005, EDP signed a contract with Endesa to reinforce its shareholding to 72%. This operation was approved by the Portuguese Competition Authority in April 2006.
The volume of gas distributed by Portgás rose 6.3% to 668 GWh at the end of first quarter of 2006, from 629 GWh in 2005. Services and industrial were the segments that contributed mostly to this increase, although the residential segment that continue to provide clear evidence of healthy growth, has also increased.
Gas revenues amounted to €32,6m of which €30.0m relate to natural gas (NG) and €2.1m to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) an increase of 29,7% year-on-year. This reflects the increase in the unit selling price as well as in the volumes of gas distributed. As a result, gross profit increased 13.5% to €15.4m and EBITDA grew 15.4% to €12.8m by the end of the first quarter 2006.

The performance of the Spanish Gas activity gross profit is explained by the following factors:
i) a small drop in regulated revenues, as a result of the switch of clients from the regulated tariff to the liberalised system, which had a negative impact on the commercialisation regulated revenue (-€1m);
ii) higher volumes of gas sold to liberalised clients with better selling price conditions vis-à-vis the cost of Naturgas sourcing contracts (+€6m). This is the result of (a) the success attained by Naturgas on a dual-fuel offer launched in mid 2005 to small clients, which also enabled the company to secure clients that switched from the regulated market to the non-regulated market, and (b) a renegotiation on better terms of the existing contracts with big clients;
iii) an insufficiency of gas sourcing in the period led to exceptional an non-recurring procurement costs resulting from gas acquisition made in the spot market at higher prices than those of current sourcing contracts. This had a negative impact of €15m in the gross profit.
During the 1Q2006, Naturgas continued to promote its brand image through publicity and sponsorships, and also continued the successful marketing campaign to promote its dual-fuel offer and to capture clients that are switching from the regulated market to the non-regulated market. Such campaign had an impact of €2m on operating costs in the 1Q2006. Costs were also influenced by the increase of local taxes following higher gas sales (+€1m).

EDPs activities in Brazil, through Energias do Brasil (owned 62.4% by EDP), continue to post an healthy operating performance. In the 1Q2006, EDP also benefited by the strong appreciation of the Real against the Euro, from an average BRL/Euro rate of 3.44 in the 1Q2005 to 2.62 in the 1Q2006 (+€25m at the EBITDA level).

Electricity volumes sold by the Brazilian activities showed a strong growth following: i) higher GWh sold to liberalised clients, capturing the ones that are switching from the regulated market to the liberalised market; and ii) a growth in electricity distribution mainly due to the high temperatures in the summer. The abnormal increase of generation volumes is explained by the effect of the unbundling process of the generation activities embedded in the DisCos.
The growth in the distributed volumes was not entirely reflected in the gross profit, because the distribution companies incurred in higher non-controllable costs than the recognised in the tariffs (R$ 68m in the 1Q2006 vs. R$4m in the 1Q2005). Such difference is going to be recovered in the next years tariff readjustments processes.
Operating costs were mainly affected by the implementation of corporate programmes in order to increase the company efficiency levels, namely the Vanguarda Project to capture synergies within the companies of Energias do Brasil and the programme to reduce commercial and technical losses in the distribution grid.
It is important to highlight that Peixe Angical hydro power plant (452 MW) should start operations in the 2Q2006, with its first unit of 151 MW, and is expected a strong contribution to the EBITDA in 2006.

In the middle of 2005, Energias do Brasil unbundled the generation activities embedded in its distribution subsidiaries, in order to comply with the new regulatory framework for the Brazilian electricity sector. As a consequence, the power plants formerly embedded in the distribution companies (281 MW; of which 14 MW were decommissioned in YE2005) were incorporated in the electricity generation division. This change was the main driver of the strong gross profit growth, contributing with R$28m in the period.
In 2006, Energias do Brasil expects to increase its installed capacity by an additional 527 MW. In January 2006, the operating licence for Peixe Angical hydro power plant (452 MW) was granted, which enabled the conclusion of the reservoir flooding until April 2006. This power plant is expected to start operations by May 2006 with its first unit of 151 MW, the second unit by July 2006 and the third unit by October 2006. 100% of the annual 2,374 GWh output is already contracted through PPAs with the distribution companies at an average price of approximately R$120/MWh (these contracts were already accepted by the regulator).

Volumes sold by our trading and supply company, Enertrade, increased 3.3%, following higher number of clients and the subsequent volumes increase.
During the last months, Enertrade was able to capture clients of Energias do Brasil DisCos that are switching from the regulated market to the free market, securing Energias do Brasils client base.
Volumes traded to Energias do Brasils distribution subsidiaries decreased 56%, since the new regulatory framework does not allow the trading of electricity through self-dealing (companies within the same group). Therefore, self-dealing contracts cannot be renegotiated upon maturity.
Overall, despite the increase in volumes sold, gross profit of Enertrade decreased 23.5% as a result of the end of some self-dealing contracts, which was not completely offset by the new contracts with final clients at a lower margin.

Part A: Non-controllable costs, which is a pass-through to the tariff
Part B: Controllable costs, depreciation and return on invested capital, which are updated to inflation (IGP-M) and adjusted by an X factor.
Readjustment Index: Gives the total increase to be applied to electricity base revenues
Financial Items: Recovery (or return) of past costs (or revenues) for a period of 12 months.
(1) Part B for Bandeirante and Escelsa were adjusted due to change applied by ANEEL in the consideration of the federal taxes in the construction of the tariff, which now are paid directly by the clients and do not need tariff coverage.
Total electricity distributed by Energias do Brasil increased 5.2% following the high temperatures in the summer, which had an impact on the electricity consumption in the residential, commercial and rural segments. Besides the high temperatures, each concession area was affected by different factors. Bandeirantes consumption growth also resulted from a higher number of clients, while Escelsas consumption increase was mainly propelled by the good economic growth in the region. Regarding Enersul, the rural local economy was affected by singular factors, namely by the foot and mouth disease.
Bandeirante: Electricity Base Margin increased 4.8% explained by i) higher volumes distributed and an increase in the implied average unit margin (Part B) given by the regulator; which was partly offset by ii) a R$21m negative difference between the non-controllable costs incurred and the ones covered by the tariff (R$4m positive in 1Q05). Such difference will be pass-through to tariffs in future tariff readjustments. Regarding the tariff adjustments under recovery (or return) in period, it is important to note that Bandeirante is giving back to the tariffs R$102m between October 2005 and 2006 (reflecting the amendment applied to the October 2003 tariff increase), and at the same time recovering past costs that were not covered by the tariff. The swing at the Other revenues (or costs) reflects the estimated revenues for non-invoiced electricity in both periods (not included either on electricity sales or GWh distributed).
Escelsa: Electricity Base Margin decreased 3.6% due to i) a R$37m negative difference between the non-controllable costs incurred and the ones covered by the tariff (R$10m negative in 1Q05); and ii) the impact of the unbundling process; which was partly offset by a strong consumption increase. Regarding the tariff adjustments under recovery in the period, Escelsa is recovering, between August 2005 and August 2006 i) R$35m related to past non-controllable cost that were not covered by the tariff; and ii) R$17m as a retroactive related to the amendment of the August 2004 tariff increase (from 4.96% to 8.58%).
Enersul: Electricity Base Margin increased 64% following i) an increase in the implied average unit margin (Part B) given by the regulator; and ii) a R$20m correction to the tariff base in April 2005; which was partly offset by iii) a R$10m negative difference between the non-controllable costs incurred and the ones covered by the tariff (R$2m positive in 1Q2005). Regarding the tariff adjustments, Enersul recovered between April 2005 and 2006 i) R$20m as a retroactive adjustment related to the amendment of the April 2003 tariff increase (from 42.26% to 50.81%); and ii) R$28m related to past cost that were not covered by the tariff.
All in all, gross profit of the DisCos increased 6.5% mainly influenced by consumption growth, although penalised by negative tariff differences of R$68m (vs. R$4m negative in 1Q05), which will be recovered in the next tariff readjustments.
Subsequent Events: In April 2006, ANEEL approved a 16.75% annual tariff readjustment index for Enersul, which reflects +4.17% for Part A, +7.29% for Part B and +5.29% for Financial items.

In the 1Q2006, EBITDA of Energias do Brasil increased 9.0% following the increase of the generation activity, as a result of the unbundling process, and the negative contribution of the distribution and supply activity, which were affected, respectively, by negative tariff differences (R$68m in 1Q06 vs R$4m in 1Q05) together with higher operating costs and by the end of self-dealing contracts.
Operating costs of Energias do Brasil increased 21.6% explained by:
i) higher costs with supplies and services, mainly at the distribution activity, as a result of (a) the programme to contain commercial and technical losses in the distribution grid (R$6m); (b) higher consultancy and IT costs (R$5m) mainly due to the implementation of the Vanguarda Project; and (c) other costs related to the network enlargement and the improvement of the commercial services;
ii) a rise in personnel costs, which mainly reflects the annual salary readjustment agreement between 6% and 8% granted to the distribution employees;
iii) an increase of provisions for doubtful debtors (+R$3m).
In order to reduce the commercial and technical losses of the distribution grid, Energias do Brasil is investing in a specific programme focused on improvements in metering procedures, inspections of consuming units, fraud detection and the regularization of clandestine connections. Improvements in the losses indicators are expected towards the end of 2006.
The Vanguard Project was developed in 2005 with the goal to create and consolidate a new concept of integrated management throughout Energias do Brasils companies, based on two main pillars: the capture of synergies and a new organizational model. The organizational structure, operating procedures and IT systems are all being redesigned to achieve economies of scale and cost savings through shared services. This programme is expected to be fully implemented by 2007.

Gross Adds increased 65.1% year-on-year, following the companys strategic focus on direct access clients and broadband internet (Oni Duo).
Voice traffic increased 8.4% year-on-year, mostly due to a 31.6% growth in the carriers segment. The residential segments voice traffic decreased 28.6% due to the erosion of indirect access clients, which was not yet compensated by the growth in voice traffic from direct access clients that more than tripled when compared with the 1Q2005 and increased more than 50% when compared with the 4Q2005. At the corporate segment, voice traffic decreased 2.7% year-on-year due to a reduction in voice traffic from indirect access clients.
Operating revenues decreased 3.2% year-on-year mostly as a result of a 9.9% decrease in voice telecommunication services to €15.1m in the 1Q2006, explained by a setback in the commercialization of Oni Voxx (an indirect voice services product) because of a delay in the publication of proper regulation needed for the launch of this product. Excluding proceeds from indirect voice services, operating revenues would have increased 2.0% year-on-year.

1Q2006
Revenues from data & Internet services remained at close to €16m on the back of revenues from broadband internet. Revenues from equipment sales increased €1.7m year-on-year to €3.0m in the 1Q2006, benefiting from the completion of a major contract for equipment supply.
Gross profit at the Oni Group fell 7.0% year-on-year, or 2.1 p.p., mostly due to a both a change in the mix of services provided and a decrease in the average price of services supplied due to an increasingly competitive environment.
Excluding non-recurring impacts, operating costs would have decreased 13.0% due to: i) a 14.7%, or €1.2m, decrease in personnel costs due to both lower severance payments and a decrease in the number of employees; ii) the accounting in the 1Q2005 of a €1.5m provision for doubtful clients and iii) the accounting in the 1Q2006 of a €1m income related to the recovery of previously provisioned doubtful debts; which were partly compensated by iv) a 7.5% increase in supplies and services. About 1/3 of this increase in supplies and services is explained by an increase in clients acquisition and retention costs while the remaining is due to higher O&M costs at Onis network.
On a comparable basis, Oni Group EBITDA increased from a break-even situation in the 1Q2005 to €1.3m in the 1Q2006.
(1) 1Q2005 financial and operating figures here presented are pro-forma, excluding Comunitels contribution. In 2005, following the sale of Comunitel in September 2005, this company was only consolidated from January to September.
(2) 1Q2005 EBITDA was adjusted to exclude a €5.3m non-recurring income related to the sale of Oni Way.

Main Highlights (1/2)
1. EDPs consolidated net profit in the 1Q2006 rose 9% YoY.
2. The regulated core business in Iberia comprising the PPAs and the electricity and gas distribution activities which represent 62% of the Groups consolidated gross profit - posted a stable performance in the 1Q06 (+€10m).
3. In the Iberian liberalized market, our electricity generation activity benefited from the sharp rise in wholesale prices during the first months of 2006, contributing for a significant increase in gross profit (+€48m) in the 1Q06.
4. In the supply business in Iberia, the low flexibility of older clients contracts and the increase of electricity wholesale prices resulted in a deterioration of this activitys gross profit during the period (-€69m).
5. The publication of the Royal Decree-Law 03/2006 in Spain had a negative impact (-€33m EBITDA) as a result of (i) the provisioning of the potential withdraw of the economic value of the CO2 licenses granted for free related to generation sales to the pool between Jan-06 and Feb-06 (€11m); (ii) the settlement of a provisional €42.35/MWh on the unit cost of purchased electricity by the distribution companies during March (€4m) and (iii) the booking of a provision for other potential regulatory risks (€18m).

Main Highlights (2/2)
6. EDPs renewable energy installed capacity rose by 72% to 1,024MW surpassing for the first time the 1,000 MW threshold and allowing a strong growth of NEOs contribution to EDPs gross profit (+€30m). This was achieved both through organic growth (155 MW) and through acquisitions (Desa 224 MW and Tecneira 50 MW).
7. Good operating performance at Energias do Brasil and a 31% appreciation of the Brazilian Real during the period resulted in a healthy growth of our Brazilian operations gross profit (+€60m).
8. The evolution of operating costs (personnel and supplies & services) remained under control, increasing by approximately 3% YoY, in line with +2.5% average increase of CPI (Mar-06).
9. Improvement of Financial Results (+€92m) backed by the partial reversion of the 2005 provision following the positive impact of the recent increases in interest rates on the fair value of the CMEC derivative (+€103m). This was partly offset by the booking, this quarter, of a provision related to financial guarantees given by EDP on Electras debt (Cape Verde).
10. EDPs consolidated net financial debt decreased by €333m from December 2005 to €9,130m.

Older contracts portfolio with lower flexibility for repricing or early termination
Ongoing selective portfolio adjustment:
Repricing upon contract maturity and incorporation of adjustment clauses, or
Termination of contract upon maturity.
More flexible contracts has allowed the renegotiation of the less attractive ones
New contracts only when selling price is above reference supply price
New regulation, improved pricing and recent decline of wholesale prices should lead to better gross margins in supply

CHANGE OF REGULATORY FRAMEWORK IN SPAIN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE REAL DECRETO-LEY 03/06
RD-L Implementation
The main objective of the Real Decreto-Ley 03/06 is to limit the creation of high tariff deficits in the Spanish electricity system
Companies may have to give back the value of the CO2 emission licenses granted for free by the government
New regulatory framework for the electricity market
Description
The government may reduce the system deficit through the attribution of a market value to the CO2 emission licenses previously granted for free to the electricity sector.
This measure should have a retroactive impact and companies may have to pay for the total CO2 licenses granted for January and February 2006.
From March onwards, companies may have to give back to the system the value of CO2 emission licenses previously granted for free only on the generation output sold in the pool (excluded bilateral contracts entered into by generation companies)
Electricity volumes acquired by the distribution companies from generation companies which are vertically integrated have to be netted against each other.
Definition of a provisional €42.35/MWh as the value the regulator will accept to pay the distribution companies on their electricity purchases.
A revision of this tariff, expected before year-end, will take into account the wholesale prices of the most relevant European electricity markets.
