Thank you. Good morning, everyone participating in this conference.

Joined with us, we have our CEO, Wilson Bley; the investment director; and our accounting manager is also with us today; the RI manager, Ricardo, with all his team. Before starting the presentation, I would like to hand it over to our President.

Good morning, everyone. I would like to greet my board and thank them for all their efforts.

I'd like to greet all our shareholders and show the importance of their participation in this event. I'd like to say that the company continues in a healthy financial condition.

We can fulfill our targets, whether contracts or legal. It's an accelerated race to reach universalization access in water and sewage before the legal deadlines, bringing comfort to our contracts.

We were renovated until 2042, guaranteeing comfort. The second quarter is within what was predicted, with an extraordinary factor which Ozires will address.

Without this extraordinary factor, we can see an increase both in revenues and also billed revenue and new connections, whether water or sewage. This shows that the company continues to serve the society, bringing revenues, dividends to be able to make the necessary investments to continue all this operation, which is not so simple.

This complexity brings challenges, and we are fulfilling these challenges, which makes us comfortable. What makes us comfortable is that we see a lot of rainfall, quite a normal level, and this allows us to have the filling of the new reservoir, which is close to 20%, and the other reservoirs are within a normal level of volume so that it guarantees that in the next few months, we have a good volume.

Of course, with El Niño, all the resilience of the company is being planned and with a strong resilience plan for us to be able to face all the challenges without any problems in the supply of water and investments. When speaking of investments, last year, we had record investments, and this year, as you will see in our numbers, we are reaching our targets within our investment plan.

I would like to assure everyone the company is doing very well, but we had all this problem of the precatórios. I want to say that the company will always defend its position in the recognition of this precatórios, which is 25% for the company and 75% for the tariff moderation.

We will make every effort necessary to reach this result, which is the result not only expected by the company, but that we believe that it's our right. I'd like to assure you that we have taken all the measures, and if necessary, we will take other measures until we receive a final decision and that which is in our favor because we believe it's our right.

I thank all of you and wish you a good day and good work to all of us.

I can't hear. Sorry, but the sound is not audible.

Okay. At the end of June, we had 83%.

Today, we have 88%, and the water is around 20% at the reservoir. In June, was 13%.

In the next slide, we will highlight the issue of the history of the delivery of service. We are universalized in water, 100%.

In sewage, we reached 82.9%, highlighting that 100% of this wastewater is treated. In the next slide, we can see the operational results, which was very good both the quarter and the six months.

We have grown in quarter in the measured volume in water, we increased 5.4%, and in the six months, 3.3%. In billed volume, in the quarter, saw an increase of 5%, and for six months, the increase was 3.1%.

Connection numbers, new connections that happened within the period of six months, in water, was 24,643 connections and an increase of 0.7%, and an increase also in new economies of 4,400—an increase of 0.7% with 32,668 new units. We have the history of connections.

We have 3,555,000 new connections in the last 12 months, an increase of 48,923 connections. The history of units, we closed June with 4,424,000, and in the last 12 months, 68,616 units.

In the next slide, if we look at the sewage, there was an increase, a significant increase, the billed volume in the quarter increased 5.9%, and in the period of six months, 4%. The number of connections has also been quite significant, 1.3%, closing in almost 35,000 connections.

The units increased 1.4% with an increase of 5,560 units. On the right side, we can see the history of the connections.

The total connections today is 2,688,000 connections, an increase in the last 12 months of 75,896 connections. The history of the economic units closing in June with 3,636,000 economic units and an increase of 109,000 units in the last 12 months.

Now moving to the indicators, financial indicators. We can feel here an impact of the recognition of the 25% of the regulatory liability.

Our EBITDA margin in the quarter closed in 28.4%, in the accumulated of six months, 36%. Then we will show you later on, there is a slide that will show you what would be the adjusted not counting the precatório.

The net margin, we had a negative result both in the quarter and in the accumulated. We had negative margins in the quarter in -26.6% and accumulated less 4%.

ROE and ROIC annualized: ROE closing in 3.7% and ROIC 4.7%. Some good news, the delinquency closing 1.9%, in line with our strategic planning, even a little below what we anticipated.

Losses per connection, it's an indicator that is quite positive. In this quarter, we closed with an indicator 216 liters of connections per day.

It's one of the lowest in the past quarters and years. If we look at June 2025, we had 223 liters, and in 2024, we had 220 liters per day.

Here, the quarter result statement, if you look at net revenue was very positive, increased 11.5%. The costs with personnel saw an increase of 7%.

We have the effect of the collective agreement, which was in March this year with a INPC readjustment of 3.6%. We have an effect of the new hirings, the new employees that joined our company.

In the accumulated, I will see the effect of the voluntary severance program, which is seeing positive results. In material, we had a small decrease.

Electricity, we had an increase, the issue of energy. Besides the volumes produced that increased and also the treated wastewater, we also saw one of the suppliers of the free market, one of the companies is in judicial recuperation.

Sanepar had to look for an emergency contracted at a price a little higher than the free market prices, but this is being addressed. We're looking for a solution.

Looking at the third-party services, this is a line that had an increase in the quarter, especially driven by the third-party services and we have the micro-regions that started operating their PPPs last year, this year the cost is higher. Now moving to the next slide, we can analyze the results more in depth.

We can see the net revenue of June 2025 and also showing the progress, how we reached this accumulated revenue in June 2026. We had an increase in economies, in the graph it amount 36 million.

It represents an increase in volume 53 million reais, readjustment in tariff that we had, it brings an impact. If we look at the readjustment in March, we had IRT that was approved.

This brought us an increase of 100 million and other revenues 7 million. It closed in almost 2 billion.

Out of this revenue, we have the costs and expenses: personnel, material, energy, provisions. It was positive.

It was a lower amount than last year. The highlight of the regulatory liability, it's highlighted that only in EBITDA it impacted 216 million.

Down there, if you look at financial expenses, we segregated. We can see the regulatory liability 693 million.

With that, we had this loss in the quarter of 505 million. If we look later, we made a composition excluding this effect of the precatórios.

We had an EBITDA of 800 million, which is a non-recurring, and a profit of 447 million if we exclude the effect of the court-ordered debt payment. Our EBITDA margin would be adjusted in 41%, and the net margin would be positive in 23%.

Now moving on to the accumulated result, we have an increase in the revenue of 9.6%, the net revenue. The cost in personnel, as I mentioned, we are seeing a reduction in 27.4%.

Last year was over a billion reais, and the first quarter of last year, there was the program of voluntary severance program. Over 500 employees left, and this cost to the company.

Even with the hirings that we are making, we are paying less salary. We are seeing a reduction in the cost compared to the accumulated last semester.

Now I will break down the same thing I did in the quarter. If I look at the net revenue in the six months, last year it had closed in 3.5 billion.

We had an increase in economies that brought a 74 million revenue, an increase in volume, billed volume, 44 million, readjustment and consumption, which can be migration of levels of consumption, it brought us 215 million, and other revenues 4 million. We close in 3.8 billion in revenue of six months.

EBITDA closing 3.8 billion—no, sorry, the revenue. The EBITDA would be practically 1.4 billion.

Highlighting both in line of EBITDA the regulatory liability, and if we see the regulatory liability, it impacted 843 million. The profit reported the loss in the six months was 152 million.

We made the same account. In the next slide, we can see the adjustment excluding the effect of the court-ordered debt payment, we would have an EBITDA of 1.6 billion and a profit of 950 million in the six months, above what was reported last year, which was around 650 million.

The margin EBITDA would be 42.7%, and the net margin would be around 24.7%. Now some comments before moving to investments.

The accounts that had variations are the same, if you look at the third-party services and electricity, the same comment I made in the quarter, it works for the six-month period. Provisions was also positive both in the quarter and in the six-month period, closing in this adjusted profit of over 900 million.

Now looking at the investments, like our President highlighted, it's a very robust investment. We close in 1 billion 152 million in the period of six months, an increase of 4.8% compared to the same period last year.

Last year, we also saw a record investment. The progress, the evolution, last year we had 1 billion 99 million in the period of six months.

We had increased 26% compared to the previous year. In June '24 was 871.

This investment is segregated 35% in water, 55% sewage, with the company is pursuing universalization, consequently the investment is higher, and other assets. We have other assets, administrative.

The funding origin: 65% own resources and 35% third parties. Now moving on to the next slides, we have the structure of the capital.

Our net debt closing 2.6 billion, a leverage which is the net debt by EBITDA, which is 1 time, which is an impact of the precatório, which is in the company's cash, which reduces our net debt. If we convert the cash conversion was 1.3 billion, and the conversion of EBITDA into cash was 95%.

Looking at the cost of our debt, it's an average cost of 12%, and we bring a timeline schedule. If you look on the right side, the amortization debt, we have debts in 2026 of 384 million; in 2027, 1 billion 82 million.

As you can see in the explanation in the financial note, we have a debenture that maturity date is next year, that's why the amount is higher than the other years. In 2028, we have 789 million; 2029, 656 million; 2030, 965 million; and as of 2031, we have 3.4 billion, which represents 47% of our debt.

It's a quite of diluted debt throughout the times, and it's very well managed by the administration. The debt composition, the debt breakdown, we have the TR 37%, IPCA 30%, CDI 22%, 4% IPCA/FIPE, 3% no correction, and Euro 3%, and 1% TJLP.

Now moving on to the covenants, we have a general outlook of our contract obligations, the covenants. They are all being met.

Looking the contract of KfW, I will mention the main indicators that cover all of them. We have the coverage ratio has to be higher or equal to 1.1; the debt-to-equity equal or less to 3, we are reaching 0; the onerous debt less or equal to 1, we have 1.43; and the level of debt has to be leverage equal 60 and we reached 54%.

In the next slide, we see the structure of our balance sheet. We had an increase of the net debt.

Our PPPs, our loans, they dropped 1.9, but we had a reduction of our financial investments. In June, we had some events.

In the next slide, we will see the cash flow. We had some payments of dividends, around 530 million and 520 million, and also the participation of results with the employees.

We saw a net increase. We saw an increase in the operational turnover capital.

We had an drop, but some accounts, for example, contractors and suppliers, salaries, and payroll charges, we had a decrease. Salaries and payroll charges, our voluntary severance program was done in installments, so that's why the balance last year was lower, now we paid out, now that impacted in our balance.

In the asset and contracts and other assets, it's a very significant line. We can see all the investments we make in the project, all the projects that are being executed, and they are in this account.

Later it will become an asset and then it will be part of the fixed assets. We close with 4.1 billion reais in this line, and this is reflecting all the investments made by the company, the fixed asset closing in 14.3 billion and the equity closing in 1 billion.

The turnover capital closing 35 days, which is the relation between the turnover capital compared to the net revenue, it's a good turnover if you look at from this perspective. The cash flow, the operational activities in the company generated 1 billion 309 million.

The financing activities consumed our cash also 1 billion, and the financing activities brought a reduction of 1 billion 121 million. This financing activities net, we had some loans, over 380 million, the dividend payment and JCP 524 million, finance payments.

We paid out debentures, so that brought an initial value in the beginning of the year, but now it tends to be lower. Then lease payments, 77 million, and other variations, 39 million.

With that, we saw reduction in our cash flow equivalent of 945 million. At the beginning of the year, we had 5.6 billion, and now in June, we have an amount of 4.6 billion.

We conclude our presentation, now I hand over the floor to Rodrigo for the Q&A session.

About the judicial proceedings, we took some measures. We went all the way concerning administrative measures, even before the publication of the Note 2026.

From this note, we requested a review of all this new proposal. We made a new notification.

Recently, we made an administrative appeal requesting that if the 0.7 note was valid. This appeal was not judged by AGEPAR, then we had a writ of mandamus, the first writ of mandamus, because we were afraid that the rule would change, which happened.

We did not receive the injunction. We were not successful.

Then we filed a new writ of mandamus, and we requested some measures that were not granted to us. Now we are going to make the further step.

Now, in parallel, Dr. Flavio will add some information.

We are taking some actions so that we can understand whether we give up the path of writ of mandamus or whether we take some further measures, ordinary, to reclaim the right that we understand is our right. Dr.

Flavio, he will add to my comment.

As the President mentioned, the writ of mandamus was not appealed in definitely, it's being analyzed. It's in the phase of injunction, and we need to the final judgment.

We are studying new measures to reclaim our right, which is supported by the legal norms. We have several opinions both from outside law firms and also internals.

We have a study by the companies of sanitation, and so we understand that the law is on our side. We have this path, we are not giving up.

We have a lot of argument to discuss judicially. I think we owe this to the company to defend this until the last higher court.

I think another important thing, it's a decision from high management that every legal path, we will follow. We will go all the way to pursue our right, which we understand is the right of the company.

The best law firms are being hired. We have several legal opinions that uphold our decision.

This path will be followed all the way to the end. We will do everything we need to do to reestablish what was anticipated when we recognized this accounting and not change the rules in the middle of the way, just like AGEPAR, our agency, has done.

The provision in the quarter. We were waiting to see whether we made the provisions.

We were waiting for the legal decisions to see the technical note 0.2 from AGEPAR. Since we did not have any new event, looking from the law and CPC that deals with the contingencies and the contingent liability, we did not have any other way whether than recognize this in our accounts because right now, we are considering the possibility of losing, so that's why we recognized the 25% regulatory liability is recognized 100% for the reversal according to the Technical Note 002 that AGEPAR expedited on June 23 this year.

The resources are invested in the company, this note stipulated that 50% would be investment non-onerous and 50% we would have to reverse in better tariffs for the consumption in the level of 5 cubic meters. It would not be fair to just benefit the consumers that consume less, it would not be fair with those who consume more.

I would like to add some information of Ozires and Flavio, too. Our expectation is that in the next 15, 20 days, we will have the final decision.

We are hopeful that this decision will confirm the right that we understand as fair, which is the application of the Note 7, Technical Note 7, where 25% would be for reduction of tariff, 75% And we would like this discount to be applied in a linear manner for all the levels of consumptions, benefiting all our clients so that they all have the same discount applied in their bills, and 25%, of course, for the company as the law. We defend 75/25, and we will fight for that, and we will do everything possible.

The expectation is big so that we can have this result. If we don't have this result, we will try another strategy.

We understand that this 2026 note brings additional responsibilities. This 50% of resources, non-onerous, to be applied in investments in projects, they are not part of our regulatory assets, this would be outside the tariff.

We understand that this is not healthy because we have to segregate these investments without having to do all the OPEX and not have a remuneration of tariffs for all this investment. We proposed an administrative resource for AGEPAR, which was not judged.

We are requesting the linear discount and not what was proposed, a 25% discount in the level of 5 cubic meters. From the perspective of our company, we don't reach the result of moderation, tariff moderation, which is expected by all consumers.

From this perspective, I reaffirm every path that is possible, whether legal or administrative, we will pursue to reestablish the rule that we had when we recognized this result in our accounts not in the actual amount, but when we received the news of this court-ordered debt payment that we made in the past. According to our President, it's a matter of legal strategy, we will analyze and make all the necessary measures concerning the AGEPAR agreement.

AGEPAR is our regulatory agent. It regulates, it creates the rules.

I don't know if there is any possibility of an agreement. We don't see any possibility of making an agreement because it's not one party litigating against the other.

There is no possibility of agreement concerning the inclusion of this 25% that, including Ozires mentioned, we are taking the necessary measures now concerning this technical note, and this is being recognized in our accounting statement. Another thing, we expedited and we also requested a mediation between AGEPAR and Sanepar to be done by the government, state government, which is the main shareholder.

The only proposal presented by Sanepar is the recognition of the Technical Note 7. There is no other agreement other than recognize what is fair, which is the recognition.

The Technical Note 0.2 said that the discount on the tariff would be 35 days after the publication of the technical note, it should have initiated in July 25. We requested, since we appealed, to suspend until this resource was judged, and it was not deferred.

We requested an extension of deadline to implement this discount in the tariff according to the technical note, even because of operational issues. Our IT is totally focused on the issue of legal reform as of December 1st, we have to issue invoices with big changes in taxes.

We have to issue the invoice. The company asked for an extension of deadline.

We might have an answer before that. Right now, we are not giving any discounts to the users, to the consumers.

According to the technical note, we would have 50% as a discount in the tariff. With that 75% for moderation tariffs, it would change the law.

We are waiting for the decision so that we can operationalize the proceedings.

The delinquency, if we look at it in the quarter, closing of six months, it closed in 1.9%. We had 0.8% in the same period last year.

We had the effect last year, if I'm not mistaken, we had the program of credit recovery, which was quite positive. It brought a recovery of credits higher than in the same period that we are comparing with this year.

Looking from the perspective of the losses, loss provisions, we changed, we improved the provision procedures. In the first half of the year, we recognized the one if we called wagon effect, which was the consumers that paid their debt in installments.

For the second half, we cannot anticipate, but the company does not disclose provisions, future provisions.

I believe that this moment requires us to look at the market, and if we see possibilities of new partnerships, we can work on them. I don't think that the market is so open to new concessions.

There are some that are programmed, they are within our radar. Yes, we have to do it with a lot of responsibility.

We have to make investments on the contracts we have, and these partnerships would be a nationalization, maybe an increase of revenue, but we need to make a very, very accurate analysis so that we find no difficulties in the future. What we observed is that the market, this half of the future market is awaiting political decisions, it's not very heated, there are no tenders being proposed.

About El Niño, we have some challenging scenarios. What we anticipate, what we are predicting is El Niño is showing its consequence.

We have an increase of 1.8 degrees in increase in the Northern Hemisphere that brings a special perception of an increase in rainfall divided in three big areas in Paraná. More on the north, west, and northeast, you have an increase in rainfall.

Another corridor, we might have storms, and in this corridor, close to the coast, which includes Curitiba, we have an additional volume, but not so big as in the north and northwest. We are creating a contingency plan to face this issue, what it may bring to us.

It's not issues or challenges in dealing with water, we are bringing technologies so that even with high turbulence, that we can continue providing our services, distributing our water, which is universalized. I would like to Fernando Guedes, our environment director, I would ask him to make his comments.

Good morning. As our President Wilson Bley said, there is a confirmation around 95% of a severe intensity of the El Niño phenomenon.

Another probability that calls our attention that we highlight is 69% of intensity of this phenomenon might be one of the biggest since 1950. The company has looked at that with a lot of concern, very cautiously, and managing these risks, creating operational resilience, and analyzing all the impacts that will result from this effect.

All this risk management, operational resilience management, but we have management tools and technologies and methodologies in terms of water security, actions that involve monitoring, security, environment, and systematic follow-up of predictions and meteorological warnings. We highlight a tool that call our attention not only Paraná, but all over the country, the Infro-Indro platform developed in partnership with Sanepar, which is a monitoring technology in the state of Paraná.

It's a management technology that monitors climatic events and its impact in the reservoirs. This gives us a general view and allows us to manage the risks more effectively.

The company is anticipating, is predicting, and organizing itself, training its personnel, and also working with the authorities. In case there are some dramatic situations, if this risk intensifies at the end of spring, beginning of summer, November, December, but the company is prepared, totally prepared with energy generators, submersible pumps in case of floods, and or also maybe tornadoes that might cause blackouts.

With these generators, we can continue delivering our services in the state of Paraná. With the issue, sometimes a lot of sediments can flow into the reservoirs, but our team and the operation board is prepared to treat this water as necessary and meet the indicators which are required by the Health Ministry.

Be sure that we are planned, and we are prepared to face these risks that might happen, and this likelihood is only increasing. I would like to say that we have a permanent working group made up by the Civil Defense of the state of Paraná together with Sanepar where this training process is offered to all our employees.

Every change, every service, we have priority together with the Civil Defense. Sanepar is studying that on daily basis, projecting scenarios, and creating contingency plans.

We have identified in all our so we can see maybe our new sources where we do not have this turbulence, where the water is not compromised because of the storms. The storms that might bring blackouts, we are hiring generators and also batteries, like no-breaks, to allow us not to have instability that would not cause our pumps to stop.

All our wastewater treatment plants to keep them working, and I want you to make sure that all plans, everything is being done, tested to avoid any difficulties in the future.

Miringuava, this new reservoir, gives us—it allows us the flow until of 2,000 liters per second. Today is 1,300 liters per second in some periods.

If we did not have Miringuava, only in the course of Miringuava River, the flow drops below 600, 500 liters per second, causing difficulties in the treatment and distribution. We are very comfortable operationally because we are enjoying what is reserved in Miringuava to allow this fluidity, this flow, so that we can treat the water by the flow, the maximum flow of treated, estimated by our wastewater treatment.

The growth is very high. We had some droughts, we had some lack of rain at the beginning of the year.

On December last year, we expected the filling of the reservoir to be bigger, but in summer and beginning of autumn, it did not exceed 5%, 6% of filling level. With the utilization of this permanent flow of what we need in this ETA.

Now, as you see, we left from 13%, but today, in the beginning of the semester, today we see the filling level is 20%, we have a good perspective that by the end of the year, the levels will be within the operational levels, and then it can bring some confidence and resilience, operational resilience, very strong.

Thank you for your question. Obviously, the company has its policy.

We have, according to the policy, we can have a distribution of from 25% to 50%. With the advent of the technical note, for care, administration suspended the credit of JCPs of the first half.

The statute predicts the credit on six-month basis. With the ongoing of the AGEPAR proceedings, as mentioned, the company is seeking all the resources to make the previous note valid.

We also have the issue of revisiting the business plan of the company, that in the second half, we are revisiting it for the period 2027 to 2031. The board, in December, based on our performance in the second half, will decide what credit will be made.

I'd like to thank the presence of all the board. Thank you all who participated in this conference, and wish you a very good day and very good weekend.

The conference of results of the second half of 2026 is concluded. Thank you all, and have a great day.
