I will now turn the conference over to Mr. Augusto Miranda, who will begin the presentation. You may proceed, sir. Well, thank you, and good afternoon to all of you. Thank you for participating, and thank you for your time. We're going to present the results for the third quarter 2022 for the Equatorial Group. In this highlight and in the consolidation of sanitation, the operations began in July, and we continue to advance in our operations and in quality enhancements. The results of this quarter reflect this evolution and the activities of our group. Let us go on to slide number three, and we begin with the financial highlights. We have a highlight on a consolidated basis. The EBITDA for the quarter, with ex-VNR and IFRS, is BRL 1.9 billion, 56% higher than the third quarter 2021. Thanks to the distribution segment and the consolidation of our assets, especially Echoenergia and CEA. We invested approximately BRL 1.7 billion during the period, 109% higher than in the third quarter 2021. Now, these investments are reducing losses and enhancing quality. We ended the quarter with a sound cash position of BRL 8.3 billion, 1.8x our short-term obligations. Our leverage has remained stable at 3.3x, net debt over EBITDA, showing our financial soundness. When it comes to the operating highlights, the volume of distributed energy was 8.785 GW, with a highlight for Pará, Maranhão, and Rio Grande do Sul. These results were attained thanks to our initiatives to combat losses. We have been consistently working in our discos, ending the third quarter with 22.5% of losses for the last 12 months, a reduction of 1.5 percentage points vis-à-vis the third quarter 2021. In the renewable sector, the energy generated was 1.432 GW, 13% higher than what was recorded in the third quarter 2021. With the coming into operation of our complex in our growth agenda, perhaps our greatest highlight is the announcement of our most recent acquisition of CELG. This shows our capacity to make the most of unique opportunities to generate value. With CELG, we have expanded our operations to the Midwest region, adding more than 3 million customers. Additionally, the distribution sector had a rating upgraded in Alagoas to a AAA by Standard & Poor's, showing the robust and financial soundness of the company. We no longer need to count on the backing of Equatorial Energia to access the market. In CEA, we paid an ARD payment through an agreement with our suppliers, and this enabled us to generate savings of BRL 200 million. I would now like to give the floor to Leo on slide five, where we will speak about the consolidated economic and financial performance. Leo, you have the floor. Thank you, Augusto, and a good afternoon to all of you. I will quickly refer to the economic and financial performance with a consolidated view. Here, we have adjusted the figures, excluding the VNR figures which were negative. Our growth margin, consolidated margin grew 41%. This is mainly linked to the good performance of the distribution segment that was given thrust to by the expressive growth in the market, along with a strong reduction of losses. Besides the segment of renewables, if we don't take into account the new assets with energy and CEA and CSA, the consolidated growth margin would be 21%. PMSO adjusted led to a growth of only 7% in the annual comparison. If we put aside the new assets, the growth of the PMSO, in line with the inflation of the period, showed us that we had an increase in costs, especially when we're strengthening our initiatives and enhancing quality. As you can observe at the bottom of the slide here, we show you very clearly the effect of the VNR during this quarter as a result of the deflation during the period. If we disregard this effect, the adjusted EBITDA, excluding VNR and IFRS, reached BRL 9 million in the third quarter, a growth of 56%, with a strong impact on the distribution sector. Additionally, with the EBITDA of our assets that jointly added up to BRL 255 million. We go on to the next slide. In slide six, we share with you the information on investments and the company's indebtedness. The total investment increased 109%, vis-à-vis the investments made in 2021. This investment is due to a higher CapEx in distribution and a strengthening of the network enhancement of quality and reduction of losses. It's always important to readjust. The coming year, we will have a completely different base of remuneration because of Pará, Piauí, and Amapá cases. Of course, we will increase the pace of investments during that period. To the right, the company's indebtedness profile. We had a slight increase in the debt, reaching almost BRL 24 billion. Now, this increase was influenced by the prepayment of the liabilities in Amapá and because of the higher CapEx spent. In terms of leverage, it has been stable vis-à-vis the previous quarter and 3.4x. It's always important to recall that the leverage does not include the EBITDA of the recently acquired assets differently from other covenants. In the view of covenants, the leverage was 3.1x within the limit of 4.5x. We now go on to slide number eight, where we will begin to speak in detail of our segments of distribution. We are now on slide number eight, where you have an overview of the operational and commercial performance of our DISCOs. Here, for comparative purposes between quarters, we show you the operating data with an adjusted vision. All of these were consolidated in November of last year. As you can observe in the graph, distributed energy grew more than 5% in the third quarter 2022, thanks to the expansions in Rio Grande do Sul, Pará, that grew more than 7%. This also includes Maranhão. This result can be attributed to the success of our combat of losses reaching 22.2%. The highlight here is Equatorial that is beginning to operate within regulatory levels. Piauí and Alagoas are already operating within those methods and within that methodology. When it comes to our commercial performance of our DISCOs, we continue to maintain a good level of collection, 98.6%, in line with the previous quarter. The highlight is for the more recent acquisition, CEA and CSA, collected more than 100%. In PDA, the levels are reasonable in terms of commercial activity, and the variation is due to reversals carried out in the third quarter 2022. Thus, we're able to demonstrate the cycle of our revenues, and we have obtained good results in the compound of losses, allied with a good performance and collection. The PMSO readjusted was below the inflation. Now, if we look at the variation of our assets and the operation of Amapá, the PMSO was 4%. The economic and financial performance of this segment is based on these effects, and it shows very clearly the enhancement and the good performance of our distribution companies during the period. If we consider only the new assets, EBITDA grew 38% if we compare the periods. At the bottom of the slide, we give you an overall view of the operational performance compared with the previous quarter. Here, the highlight is for the evolution of the technical quality indicator, which has a great deal of impact on the more regular performance of our assets. Also, we have the investments carried out in distribution. The generalized enhancement of this indicator is in Rio Grande do Sul, and it shows that the recent initiatives are very positive, and we hope to continue on with this evolution in the coming quarters. All of our distributors have reduced their supply and are operating at very good levels. On slide number 10, very quickly, we would like to show you the performance of the transmission segment. Our portfolio has BRL 1.3 million in terms of RAP. This quarter, the regulatory EBITDA of the segment grew 25%, reaching BRL 305 million, as you can see to the left. Our transmission operation has a consolidated EBITDA that is higher than 33%. There's a variation of 13% due to a reduction in the third quarter due to a calculation error of one of our partners. This effect was adjusted retroactively with the regulator. Therefore, it will not have an impact on the current figures, but it's evident in this comparative vision. The EBITDA during this period was benefited by this adjustment, reaching 94.5%. We're now going to look at the Echoenergia operations. Here we bring you the historical performance of Echoenergia. The volume generated grew 13%, thanks to the coming into operation of the Serra do Mel II, contributing with GW during the quarter, offsetting a lower volume of sales with a 2% reduction. Now, in the scenario of transmission, there was a growth of 70%, totaling 224 during the period. We now go on to the next slide. Before closing, here we have an initial picture of CSA, our first sanitation company. We ended the third quarter with more than 71 active economies during the period. These are the clients that are connected to the network. Now, this is very important as a figure because it represents 94% of the total of active economies foreseen for the end of the first year of operation. When it comes to the sewage operation, we have more than 10,000 connections that have begun their billing in the first quarter, and this should only happen in the second year of operation. As a whole, the coverage index of this service is equivalent to 35% and 7% for water and sewage. In terms of the grid extension, the EBITDA reflects the initial stage of the operation, and this will enable us to work with the universalization of this service. Now, the goal is to reach an index of 99% in water coverage and 90% for sewage coverage in the periods of 11 and 17 years. We are extremely satisfied with the strides made in this first quarter, and we're going to continue to take large steps to generate value in this company. I would now like to return the floor to Augusto for his final remarks or considerations. Well, thank you very much. I would like to close by speaking about our achievements and outlooks. The main highlight, of course, is the acquisition of CELG-D. Perhaps this is the greatest acquisition in our history, adding more than 3 million clients to the group, inaugurating our presence in the Midwestern region. The expectation is to conclude this at the end of the year. We have already been approved by CADE. I highlight the evolution of our quality indicators in our operations, especially those of Maranhão. This is thanks to the DEC plan that was implemented in the last year, and we're going to continue on with this evolution. In the commercial front, the highlight is the loss reduction in all of our DISCOs. The evolution of quality and loss reduction will also point to an evolution of our more recent companies. Other highlights are the beginning of the sanitation company that began a short time ago. Of course, we're adding value to this asset. We're going to focus on the operation of this asset, making the necessary investments to recover infrastructure and performance. Additionally, in attempting to generate value, we're looking at market opportunities to strengthen our portfolio. Finally, I would like to highlight a recent achievement, which is the Women on Board Seal. This is an important recognition pointing to the advance we have in a more diverse environment. We have two women in our board, and we continue to make slides in our ESG agenda. We're also carrying out an inventory and greenhouse gas inventory, and we're making institutional changes in terms of environmental policy and inclusion of more diversity. This, of course, will be only part of the diversity that encompasses ESG. I would like to return the floor to the operator for the question-and-answer period. We will now go on to the question-and-answer session. Should you have any question, please press star one on your phones. If your question has been answered, please press star two to withdraw from the queue. The questions will be answered in the order in which they are received. Please pick up your handsets when posing your question so that we can have optimal sound quality. Please hold while we pull for questions. Our first question is from Guilherme Lima from Santander. Good afternoon. Thank you for taking my question. If you could remark on the evolution of the transfer of control of CELG-D with ANEEL, is there a benefit that you're negotiating, an immediate tariff benefit for the consumers? And if yes, which would be the amount? The second question refers to the funding strategy. If you're thinking of selling off minority stakes, in which segment and which would be the timing of this process? Thank you. Well, thank you, Guilherme, for the questions. Guilherme, when it comes to the process, I think we're doing very well. The work at the CADE proceeded very positively and we have to wait in terms of the deadline and the discussions. What we can say about this is that we expect to conclude this process until the end of December or beginning of January. The second part of the question, I'm sorry, I did not capture this properly, if you could repeat it. Yes, of course. It refers to the sale of minority stakes. If you're considering selling off minority stakes as a funding strategy, and which would be the segment in which subsidiaries would this happen? Thank you. We have no minority stakes, Guilherme. The only one we had was sold off last year, and it has been completely or fully concluded and paid off. Thank you. That's very clear. Thank you very much. Our next question is from Carolina Carneiro, from Credit Suisse. Good afternoon. We have two questions. The first. You mentioned in the call regarding CSA, the actual economies. If you could refer to what you had in the plan as compared to the initial survey. It seems that we're at a much more interesting operational plan, one that is much more interesting and if you have begun installing hydrometers as part of your plan. Now, when it comes to Amapá vis-a-vis what you had in the plan and in Goiás, it wasn't clear for me. Apparently, this will extend until the end of the year, but when it comes to the regulatory part, the flexibilization of the DEC/FEC, if I'm not mistaken, and the possibility of a regulatory penalty for the coming year. We would like to have greater visibility of what you're going to do as you have a very tight calendar with the regulator, and you would have to address this before the cutoff point for these indicators, DEC and FEC. Oh, Carolina, thank you for the question. I'm going to speak, Leo, and then somebody will add to this. When it comes to sanitation, we took this company on in July. It's very recent. Through an assisted operation. To gain scale, the first thing you have to do is carry out a survey of the customers. The commercial customers had been billed as residential customers, and what we would like to highlight was our expeditiousness, setting up a very good team with a very experienced director. We also brought about an engineering director with broad experience. The commercial director was already from the group. All of this has enabled us to make strides in this new laboratory. We're very enthusiastic. It's a new experience for us. Of course, there are plenty of opportunities, Carolina. We're still learning about everything, optimizing everything. When you begin operating, the day-to-day problems begin to appear. Now, the team that we have contracted is doing very well, and we're quite satisfied with this. Leo, I don't know if you would like to add something. Now, in Goiás, we're in a process that is being analyzed. We have already defined a rapporteur, and they're holding meetings with ANEEL and ourselves. These are separate meetings. These are causes that we are discussing very broadly. It's a broad concession. Of course, there are challenges involved in this. When the regulator has knowledge of the concession, this can speed up the dialogue. We can have a discussion based on real facts. This concession does have its own characteristics. Leo. Well, thank you, Augusto. Yeah, and thank you for the question, Carolina. I would like to highlight some points in sanitation. We have implemented 3.1 km in this concession, and we have identified in stock 30,000 hydrometers, which of course, will have to undergo tests to see if they can be used. From the point of view of registry, we have been able to update 55,000 registers in that region. In some of these registers, there is a change from a commercial to a residential registry and vice versa. Now, the quality systems, of course, are under discussion in this process of expansion for the approval of the transfer, and there are some precedent issues associated to this. Everything is moving forward positively as expected. If you allow me, Carolina, to add something in terms of sanitation for you to see that we're really moving ahead well. 94% of the active economies of water forecast for the first year. Well, the synergies foreseen have already been carried out during the first year. In these 90 days, we have already attained 94%. We are already able to replicate this segment. When we take the sanitation director and the commercial director, she wears both hats. She is able to achieve this, and the closeness with our energy assets facilitates this. Following the Equatorial model will bring us positive fruits in sanitation as well. Thank you. Thank you very much. We will now continue with a question from the web. Good afternoon. Which will be the CapEx for wind energy in Brazil? Is it higher or is it beginning to decrease? And prices of PPA and ACL, have they increased? Now, is your results improving in this quarter? Thank you very much. Okay. Tim is answering the question regarding the CapEx. We still perceive stability differently from the CapEx, where we had a reduction in wind production. This is not happening. It is more stable, and the OpEx perhaps is somewhat higher. Now to speak a bit about prices. We have perceived in terms of the migration prices, that is to say captive customers that become free customers and self-production with an increase in the open market, differently from what we thought at the point of acquisition. The last question refers to the third quarter generation or fourth quarter. October was somewhat better, but we are better than in previous quarters, but not considerably better compared to our historical series or production. Well, thank you. We would like to remind you that should you wish to pose a question, please press star one on your handsets. To withdraw your question from the queue, press star two. Please hold while we poll for questions. Our next question is from Felipe Cassimiro from Bradesco BBI. Good afternoon. In the last few days, we have seen news that Amazonas Energia is selling. You have recently acquired CELG, and last year you had three other acquisitions or four if we count, the sanitation company. Which is the possibility of Equatorial acquiring this asset of Amazonas in terms of people if you have the arms to work with another asset and your capacity to invest in this asset? Well, thank you for the question. This is Leo. Thank you for the question, Cassimiro. I would like to say the following. Because of the size that we have and because of the importance of this segment, we're looking at all opportunities in distribution. However, we don't particularly want this specific asset. Okay. That's very good. Thank you. We would like to remind you that should you wish to pose a question, please press star one. To withdraw your question from the queue, press star two. Please wait while we poll for questions. Please wait while we poll for new questions. Thank you. A question coming through the web regarding the DEC and FEC. The FEC in this quarter decreases vis-à-vis the previous quarter, but DEC is above the limit in several states yet. Which is your projection for coming quarters, and if the company has done something to improve these indicators? That's a question on quality. If you look at the origin of Equatorial, it has stood out because of its indicators and distribution. This is something that we truly know how to work with. In the growth of Equatorial since 2018, we had considerable growth, and we preserve our culture as part of this growth, our people. Yesterday, we were in Alagoas along with the board, looking at the performance of the company. We're in the same environment as if we were in Maranhão or Pará. That idea of growing based on consistency is very positive. I would like to remind you, Equatorial has a characteristic. Whenever we have a problem or we're able to resolve a problem, our capacity becomes ever larger. In 2016, I remember the collection was very difficult. At that point, we rolled up our sleeves, we created a plan of action, and we reverted the problem. We work with very close management. Now, if you look at the reduction we already had in Alagoas, it is very expressive. The same holds true for Pará. All of this is based on a plan. In Maranhão during the pandemic, we had a problem with some companies. We also had problems with mobilization. When there is a change of range, it's not easy to resolve. Sometimes a range does not work, and we had difficulty in mobilizing our partners to do this. We had to create partnerships with providers in the south of the country. We have good teams. Now we're controlling our results month after month. We have a monthly vision, an annual vision, and we see a strong trend for a drop in these indicators. We generate results cumulatively, and this is what we truly know how to do well, and we're focusing on that. Now, this indicator has received special attention from the entire company and from our technical group, and we're trying to find a constant and consistent trend for a drop in this. So you can feel very calm in terms of the evolution of these indicators. Well, thank you. At this point, we would like to conclude the question and answer session. I will now turn the floor back to Mr. Augusto Miranda for the final remarks. You may proceed, sir. Once again, thank you very much for your time, for your participation, and I would like to reinforce once more our commitment with constant value generation and value for our shareholders by delivering consistent results, always focusing on a very disciplined financial management. Our IR team is at your entire disposal to give you support should you have any doubt. Once again, thank you for your interest in the company and for your participation in our conference call. The Equatorial Energia S.A. conference call ends here. We would like to thank everybody for their participation. Have a good afternoon.
