e)        a provision in the Bylaws governing distribution of profits or results is, also, necessary, as a means of tax planning, since it makes possible the deduction of profit shares distributed directly from profit and avoids infringement notices by the Federal Revenue Service, which has happened to the company precisely because of the absence of this provision;

PROPOSAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

TO

THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

 

 

 

Dear Stockholders:

 

Whereas –

 

 

 

a)

 

the office of the Attorney General of the State of Minas Gerais has recommended that the Bylaws should ensure participation by the State in the decisions of the wholly-owned subsidiaries and companies controlled by Cemig, so as to preserve its condition of controlling stockholder, in accordance with the Constitution of the State of Minas Gerais

and the current legislation;

 

 

 

b)

 

there is a need for restructuring of the distribution of competencies between the various management bodies of the company;

 

 

 

c)

 

there is a need, in particular, for adjustment of the attributions of the Audit Board, to permit it to assume the attributions demanded by the Sarbanes-Oxley Law;

 

 

 

d)

 

it is convenient that there should be provision in the Bylaws relating to the distribution of profits or results to the employees, and also of profits to the managers, in accordance with the limits to be fixed by the General Meeting of Stockholders to comply with Article 190 of Law 6404 of December 15, 1976, and the rulings of the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM);

 

 

 

e)

 

a provision in the Bylaws governing distribution of profits or results is, also, necessary, as a means of tax planning, since it makes possible the deduction of profit shares distributed directly from profit and avoids infringement notices by the Federal Revenue Service, which has happened to the company precisely because of the absence of this provision;

 

 

 

f)

 

there is a need to introduce a provision for possibility of contracting third party liability insurance for the managers of the company, upon a proposal by its Board of Directors;

 

 

 

g)

 

there is a need for revision of several provisions of the Bylaws to make them more appropriate in formal and/or legal terms;

 

 

 

– the Board of Directors now proposes to submit to the Extraordinary General Meeting of Stockholders the following changes in the Bylaws:

§ 2 –

 

The State of Minas Gerais shall participate in the decisions of the wholly-owned subsidiaries and the companies controlled by the company, so as to preserve its condition of controlling stockholder, under the Constitution of the State of Minas Gerais and the current legislation.”;

 

 

 

 

 

2)

e)              a provision in the Bylaws governing distribution of profits or results is, also, necessary, as a means of tax planning, since it makes possible the deduction of profit shares distributed directly from profit and avoids infringement notices by the Federal Revenue Service, which has happened to the company precisely because of the absence of this provision;

Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais - Cemig
Listed company - CNPJ 17.155.730/0001-64
NET INCOME FOR FIRST HALF 2007: R$ 922 MILLION  Belo Horizonte, Brasil, August 14, 2007: — Leading Brazilian Electricity Utility Cemig (BOV CMIG4, CMIG3; NYSE CIG, CIG.C; Latibex: XCMIG) today announces first half 2007 group net income of R$ 922 million — R$ 1.90 per share. EARNINGS RELEASE FIRST HALF 2007

Board Chairman Marcio Araújo de Lacerda said that “in the first half of 2007 we continued to grow, boosted by the strong expansion of the economy of the state of Minas Gerais, and by our acquisitions. The number of our consumers rose to over 10 million, in almost all the regions of Brazil. As a result of our interaction with the Ministry of Mines and Energy we obtained confirmation of renewal, for 20 more years, of the concessions for 9 hydroelectric plants, totaling generation capacity of 1,735 MW. Furthermore, as result of our commitment with our costumers, our distribution subsidiary, Cemig Distribuição, was given the Aneel Consumer Satisfaction Index Award for 2006 — the third time we have won this recognition — after a survey of more than 19,000 consumers of 64 electricity distribution concessions holders. We are, therefore, meeting the targets of our Strategic Plan — continuous growth with addition of value not only for our shareholders but also for our consumers and the community we serve.”

CEO Djalma Bastos de Morais said: “Constant and sustainable growth is our commitment. In the first half of 2007 we celebrated the startup of the Capim Branco II plant, adding 44MW to our generating capacity, and also started operation of two new transmission lines — from Itutinga to Juiz de Fora and from Irapé to Araçuaí, operating at 345kV and 230kV, respectively. These two lines add 49 kilometers to our transmission system and 55MVA to our transformation capacity. Through the Minas Small Hydro Plant Program, we are building 6 plants with aggregate capacity of 91MW. In partnership with Neoenergia and Furnas, we have started construction of the 140MW Baguari hydro plant. At the same time as we invest and grow, we do not cease to be concerned with the sustainability of our business. Our programs for energy efficiency and conservation, and our participation in projects for the use of gas, solar energy and small-scale hydroelectric plants, help to reduce the greenhouse effect. According to a survey by the electricity Distributors’ Association, Abradee, 90% of our consumers recognize that Cemig is a company concerned with the environment.”

Luiz Fernando Rolla, Chief Officer for Finance, Holdings and Investor Relations, said: “our Ebitda in the first half was R$ 1.9 billion, boosted by our operational efficiency, and our management oriented toward creation of value for stockholders. The acquisitions we made in 2006 already contribute almost 13% to our consolidated net profit. The fact that we invest with rigorous minimum criteria for attractiveness of the investment, and compliance with the covenants compromised in our bylaw, results in continuous

improvement of our ratings — which further reduces our cost of funding. Balancing investments and capital expenditure, continuously seeking operational and financial excellence, and maintaining our firm long-term objectives, we ensure growing profits for our stockholders.

Higher Ebitda in first half 2007 than first half 2006 is due mainly to increased operational efficiency, and also to nonrecurring items that affected the result in 2006.  The better operational performance in 2007 was reflected in Ebitda margin, which was 31.49% in first half 2006, and 38.6% in first half 2007.

·          Revenue from supply of electricity

Gross revenue from retail electricity sales was R$ 6,344,180 in the first half of 2007, compared to R$ 4,882,992 in the first half of 2006 — an increase of 29.92%.

This was basically due to:

·          an increase of R$ 1,064.562 in gross revenue due to consolidation of Rio Minas Energia Participações S.A. — RME, this consolidating began in the third quarter of 2006.

·          A tariff adjustment in Cemig Distribuição, with average impact on consumer tariffs of 7.05%, from April 8, 2006 (full effect in 2007); and

·          A tariff adjustment averaging 5.16% on consumer tariffs, starting from April 8, 2007; and

•          Revenue from wholesale electricity sales

The revenue from electricity sold to other concession holders was R$ 457,768 in first half 2007, compared to R$ 324,108 in first half 2006. This increase arises basically from the increase in the volume of electricity sold (6,403,092 MWh in 2007, compared to 4,988,424 MWh in 2006) — mainly reflecting the operational startup of the Irapé power plant in the second half of 2006, and a higher volume of electricity traded in bilateral contracts with energy traders.  The average tariff in 2007 was R$ 71.49, compared with R$ 64.97 in 2006 — an increase on 10.04%.

•          Revenue from use of the grid

Revenue from use of the electricity grid was 7.47%, or R$ 71,242, higher (R$ 1,025,162 in 2007, compared to R$ 953,920 in 2006).

The higher revenue basically reflects the higher revenue from the Tariff for Use of the Distribution System (TUSD) of Cemig Distribuição and Light, corresponding to R$ 730,050, compared to R$ 665,583 in 2006 — or 9.69% higher. This revenue comes from the fees charged to free consumers on energy sold by other agents in the electricity sector and its growth arises mainly from the consolidation of RME, which provided an increase of R$76,503 in this revenue.

 

66



 

 

Also included in this balance is the revenue from use of the basic grid, and the revenue from connection to the system — amounts of R$ 194,782 and R$ 100,330 respectively. See Explanatory Note 25 to the consolidated Quarterly Information.

In June 2007 Cemig posted a reduction in the revenue from use of the grid, in the amount of R$ 30,919 resulting from a review of the amounts of permitted annual revenue linked to the transmission facilities that are part of the grid, and other transmission facilities, for holders of public electricity transmission concessions, in compliance with ANEEL rulings.  Under ANEEL Resolution 493 of June 26, 2007, the reduction in revenue of the new facilities was 24.58%, an impact of approximately 3.00% in the total revenue of Cemig Geração e Transmissão from use of the grid. For further explanation please see Explanatory Note 21 to the Quarterly Information.

•          Non-controllable costs

The differences between the sums of non-controllable costs (also referred to as “CVA”) used as a reference in the calculation of the tariff adjustment and the disbursements actually made are offset in the subsequent tariff adjustments, and are registered in Current assets and Long term assets as prepaid expenses. As a result of reformulation by ANEEL of the plan of accounts, some items were transferred to Deductions from operational revenue. Please refer to further information in Explanatory Note 2 and Note 8 to the Consolidated Quarterly Information.

•          Deductions from operational revenues

Deductions from operational revenues totaled R$ 2,722,119 in 1H07, compared to R$ 2,116,755 in 1H06, an increase of 28.60%. The principal changes in expenses are as follows:

Fuel Consumption Account — CCC

The deduction from revenue relating to the CCC was R$ 244,596 in 1H07, compared to R$ 222,049 in 1H06, representing an increase of 10.15%. This relates to the operational costs of thermal plants in the Brazilian interconnected and isolated systems,

 

67



 

 

split pro rata between electricity concession holders as specified by an ANEEL Resolution. This is a non-controllable cost, and the deduction from revenue corresponds to the amount actually passed through to the tariff.

Energy Development Account — CDE

The deduction from revenue relating to the CCC was R$ 194,059 in 1H07, compared to R$ 151,135 in 1H06, representing an increase of 28.40%. The payments are specified by an ANEEL Resolution. This is a non-controllable cost, and the deduction from revenue corresponds to the value actually passed through to the tariff.

RGR — Global Reversion Reserve

The RGR in first half 2007 is a deduction from revenue of R$ 79,778.  The RGR in the first half of 2006 resulted in an addition to revenue of R$ 14,948, due to an adjustment of a provision for the year 2004, in the amount of R$ 65,760, as a result of ANEEL homologating that expense at an amount lower than the one estimated by the company

The other deductions from revenue are taxes calculated as a percentage of sales, and their variations are thus proportional to the variations in revenue.

•          Operational costs and expenses

Operational costs and expenses (excluding net financial revenue/expenses) in the first half of 2007 totaled R$ 3,393,424, compared to R$ 3,010,811 in the first half of 2006, an increase of 12.71%. This mainly reflects the change in costs of purchase of electricity and expenses on depreciation and amortization, and is partially offset by a reduction in personnel expenses. Please refer to further information in Explanatory Note 28 to the Quarterly Information.

The principal changes in expenses are:

 

68



 

 

Personnel expenses

Personnel expenses in 1H07 were R$ 493,522, compared to R$614,226 in 1H06, a reduction of 19.65%. This lower expense mainly reflects the provision of R$ 177,425 made in June 2006 for indemnity to employees of future “anuênios”, partially offset by the wage increase of 4% given to employees in November 2006, and the 3.37% increase in the number of employees — from 10,499 at the end of June 2006 to 10,853 at the end of June 2007.  Explanatory Note 28 to the Consolidated Quarterly Information gives the breakdown of personnel expenses.

Electricity purchased for resale

The expense on this account in first half of 2007, at R$ 1,251,612, was 25.09% higher than the expense of R$ 1,000,583 in the first half of 2006. This is a non-controllable cost, and the deduction from revenue corresponds to the value actually passed through to the tariff. Please refer to further information in Explanatory Note 28 to the Quarterly Information.

Depreciation and amortization

The expense on depreciation and amortization was 25.0% higher, at R$ 378,732, in first half 2007, than in first half 2006 (R$ 302,812).  This change is principally due to the consolidation of RME, contributing an increase in the expense of R$ 39,334, and the start up of the Irapé Plant, in the second half of 2006. '"

 

69



 

 

Post-employment obligations

The expense on post employment obligations in 1H07 was R$ 60,263 compared to R$75,055 in first half of 2006, a reduction of 19.71%. These expenses basically represent the interest applicable to Cemig’s actuarial obligations, net of the investment yield expected from the assets of the pension plans, estimated by an external actuary. The lower expense reflects greater growth in the pension plans’ assets of the than in the obligations to participants

Operational provisions

Deductions from operational revenues amounted to R$ 156,558 in 1H07, compared to R$ 79,992 in 1H06, an increase of 95.72%. This increase arises principally from a higher provision for doubtful receivables, of R$ 79,301 in first half 2007 (R$ 37,188 being provisioned by RME), which compares with R$ 43,562 in the first half of 2006; and from the provision for ANEEL administrative proceedings, in the amount of R$ 30,000, constituted in March 2007.  For more information, please see Explanatory Notes 22 and 28 of the consolidated Quarterly Information

Charges for Use of the Transmission Grid

The expense on charges for use of the transmission network in the first half of 2007 was R$ 400,178, vs. R$ 421,735 in the first half of 2006, a reduction of 5.11%. This reduction mainly reflected the reversal, in first half of 2006, of the portion of the CVA constituted in 2005, in the amount of R$ 93,265 as a result of a new interpretation by ANEEL, the electricity regulator, on the criteria for constitution of the CVA.

These charges are payable by distribution and generation agents for use of the facilities and components of the basic grid, and are set by ANEEL resolution. This is a non-controllable cost in the distribution activity, and the deduction from revenue posted corresponds to the amount actually passed through to the tariff.

Gas purchased for resale

The cost of gas purchased for resale was R$ 62,181 in first half of 2007, 18.61% lower than in the first half of 2006 (R$ 76,399). This change was mainly due to the reduction in the amount purchased in the periods compared, 164,678,000m3 in first half 2007, vs. 198,101,000m3 in first half 2006.

•          Financial revenues (expenses)

The company posted net financial expenses of R$ 123,175 in 2007, which compares with net financial expenses of R$ 170,620 in first half of 2006. The main factors in this comparison are:

•          Increase in both revenue and expense from the monetary updating relating to the General Agreement for the Electricity Sector.  Revenue was R$ 317,012 in the first half of 2007, compared with R$ 173,775 in first half 2006.  The expense was R$ 106,789 in first half 2007, vs. R$ 33,348 in first half 2006.  These variations, in revenue and expense arise mainly from the following factors

•          Adjustment of regulatory assets and liabilities in Cemig Distribuição, in the second quarter of 2007, in compliance with updating criteria set by ANEEL.  The updating adjustments to assets and liabilities have counterpart in Financial revenue and expenses, respectively, and thus have no impact on the income statement.

•          Adjustment of the revenue from monetary updating relating to the General Agreement for the Electricity Sector, in the amount of R$ 99,833, due to updating criteria set by ANEEL for the asset relating to the transactions in free energy during the rationing period.  This procedure did not affect Financial Revenue (expenses) due to a corresponding increase in the provision for losses on transactions in free energy.  Due to this provision, the line Provision for losses on recovery of extraordinary tariff recomposition and free energy amounts increased

 

71



 

 

from R$ 47,149, at the end of first half 2006, to R$ 136,929 at the end of first half 2007.  See Explanatory Note 29 to the Consolidated Quarterly Information.

•          Expenses on charges for loans and financings totaled R$ 409,356 in the first half of 2007, vs. R$ 319,877 in the same period of 2006, 27.97% higher. The higher figure mainly reflects new loans contracted in the second half of 2006 and first quarter of 2007.

•          Reduction of 40.73% in the revenue from monetary updating and interest applied to the Deferred Tariff Adjustment, of R$ 61,017 in first half 2007, compared to R$ 102,943 in first half 2006.  This is mainly due to the reduction of the asset in comparison between the two periods as a result of the receipt of amounts into the energy accounts. See Explanatory Note 11 to the quarterly information.

See the composition of financial revenues and expenses in Explanatory Note 29 to the consolidated Quarterly Information.

•          Income tax and Social Contribution

Cemig’s expenses on income tax and the Social Contribution in first half of 2007 totaled R$ 387,485 on profit of R$1,383,796 before tax effects, a percentage of 28.00%. In 1H06, the company posted expenses with income tax and Social Contribution of R$255,611, representing 34.01% of the pre-tax profit of R$ 751,478. These effective rates are reconciled with the nominal rates in Explanatory Note 10 to the Consolidation Quarterly Information.

Extraordinary tax credits in the amount of R$ 81,924, recognized by Light, relating to previous business years, were recorded in June 2007. Further information is given in Explanatory Note 10 to the Quarterly Information.

Glossary Aneel: The Brazilian electricity sector regulator. An independent federal regulatory agency. BRGAAP –Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in Brazil. CRC –The Results Compensation Account: Prior to 1993 Brazilian electricity concession holders were guaranteed by law a rate of return on investment in assets used in the provision of electricity services to clients; rates charged to users were uniform all over the country; and the profits generated by the more profitable concession holders were reallocated to less profitable concession holders, in such a way that the rate of return of all the companies was equal to the national average. The deficits which the majority of the Brazilian electricity concession holders suffered were accounted in the “CRC Account”of each company. When the CRC Account itself, and the concept of guaranteed return, were abolished, the concession holders with positive balances were allowed to set these balances off against amounts owed by them to the federal government. CCC –the Fuel Consumption Account: The CCC was created to build financial reserves to cover the increase in costs associated with greater use of thermal generating plants, in the event of drought: the marginal operational costs of the thermal plants are higher than those of hydroelectric plants. Each energy company is obliged to make an annual contribution to the CCC. The annual contributions are calculated based on the estimates of the cost of fuel consumption by the thermal plants necessary in the subsequent year. CDE –Energy Development Account: This is a source of subsidy created to help make alternative sources of energy competitive (e.g. wind energy, or biomass), and to promote “universalization”of electricity services –their extension to every citizen and location. It is funded from annual payments made by the concession holders for the use of public assets, and from penalty payments imposed by Aneel The CDE will remain in effect for a period of 25 years and will be administered by Eletrobrás. DEC –Average Customer Outage Duration: Average time of outage suffered by consumption units in a given group in the period referred to. DividendYield– (Dividend per share/shareprice): Annual return that the stockholder received in dividends and Interest on Equity (per share) –expressed as a percentage of the share price. FEC –Average Customer Outage Frequency: Average number of outages per consumption unit in a given group in the period referred to. FIDC – Receivables Fund –Fund of creditrights, realizable assets. Hedge: A mechanism by which holders of asset or liability positions protect themselves from price fluctuations in, e.g., the commodities or FX markets. Ebitda: Profit before interest (Financial revenue and expenses), tax, depreciation and amortization –a measure of a company’s operational cash flow, providing an indicator of the cash flow generated by a company’s principal business. Luz no Campo (“Light in the Countryside”): The national rural electrification program, created by the federal government aiming to take electricity to one million rural properties and domiciles all over Brazil. It is coordinated by the Mining and Energy Ministry, and developed by Eletrobrás with funds obtained from the Global Reversion Reserve (RGR).

Glossary Payout – Percentage of net income distributed as dividends. P/E – Price/Earnings.  RTE –The “Extraordinary Tariff Recomposition”: This is a tariff adjustment granted in December 2001 to the distributors and generators of the regions that were under rationing at that time. It is settled in the General Agreement for the Electricity Sector, and resulted in an increase of 2.9% in the tariffs of residential consumers (with the exception of low-income consumers) and rural consumers, and 7.9% for the other consumers. The objective of the adjustment was to restore the losses that distributors and generators of electricity had suffered from the reduction of consumption imposed by the government. The duration of the adjustment varies in accordance with the time necessary for the recovery of the losses of each concession holder. RGR – Global Reversion Reserve: This is an annual amount included in the costs of concession holders, for generation of funds for expansion and improvement of public electricity services. The amounts are paid monthly to Eletrobrás, which is responsible for administration of the funds, and will also be employed in the Procel program. RTD –The “Deferred Tariff Adjustment”: Aneel decided the results of the periodic tariff revision of Cemig Distribuição which covers the repositioning of electricity retail supply tariffs at a level compatible with the preservation of the economic-financial equilibrium of the concession contract, providing sufficient revenue to cover efficient operational costs and adequately remunerate investments. The average adjustment applied to Cemig’s tariffs on April 8, 2003, provisionally, was 31.53%, but the final tariff repositioning for Cemig should have been 44.41%. The percentage difference of 12.88% will be compensated through an increase in each of the tariff adjustments planned to occur in 2004 and 2007, cumulatively. The difference between the tariff repositioning to which Cemig Distribuição has the right and the tariff actually charged to consumers is recognized as a Regulatory Asset. Total return to stockholder – Sum of return in dividends and appreciation in the stock price. TUSD –Tariff for Use of the Distribution System: This is paid by generation companies and by Free Consumers for the use of the distribution system of the distribution concession holder to which the respective generator or consumer is linked, and is revised annually in accordance with the inflation index and the investments made by the distributors in the previous year to maintain and expand the network. The amount to be paid by the user who is linked to the distribution system is calculated by multiplication of the amount of energy contracted with the distribution concession holder for each link point, in kW, on the basis of the tariff in R$/kW which is set by Aneel. UHE –(“Usina Hidrelétrica”) –Hydroelectric power plant: Electricity generation plant which uses the mechanical energy of water to turn rotors and generate electricity. UTE –(“Usina Térm(o) Elétrica”) –Thermal generation plant: One in which chemical energy contained in fossil fuels is converted into electricity. Market capitalization: Sum of products of number of each type of share and respective share price. WAAC –Weighted Average Cost of Capital
