The Company also provides water on a wholesale basis to certain municipalities in the São Paulo Metropolitan Region that do not have water production systems.
The Company provides water and sewage services in 368 municipalities in the State of São Paulo, nearly all of which are through concessions granted by the municipalities. Most of these concessions have 30-year terms, seventeen of which expire in 2005, 127 in 2006, 29 in 2007, 22 in 2008, 32 in 2009, 46 in 2010 and the remainder between 2011 and 2034. Each of these concessions is automatically renewable for a period equal to its initial term, unless the municipality or the Company exercises the right to terminate the concession, through notification by either party, at least six months prior to its expiration date.
The Company does not hold a formal concession to provide water and sewage services in the City of São Paulo, which accounts for a substantial portion of the sales and services rendered. In Santos, a municipality located in the Santos Coastal Area, which also has a significant population, the Company operates under a public authorization, like in some other municipalities in the Santos Coastal Area and the Ribeira Valley, where the Company started operating after the merger of the companies that formed SABESP.

Amounts received | (42,422) | (23,445) |
The Company does not record an allowance for doubtful accounts for any amounts due from the State Government or entities controlled by the State Government, since it does not expect losses on such receivables.
(i) Water and sewage services
The Company provides water and sewage services to the State Government and its related agencies under terms and conditions that management believes are equal to those with third parties, except for the settlement of amounts outstanding, as described further below.
(ii) Reimbursement for pensions and benefits paid
Reimbursement for pension and benefits paid represents supplementary pension and leave benefit paid by the Company on behalf of the State Government to former employees of State Government-owned companies which merged to form SABESP. These amounts should be reimbursed to the Company by the State Government, as the primary obligor, and do not bear interests. The budget proposal of the State of São Paulo Government, as approved by the State House of Representatives, includes funds referring to such obligation.
(iii) GESP Agreement
On December 11, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with the State Government (GESP Agreement), under which the State Government acknowledged a debt, among others, for services rendered by the Company of water supply and sewage collection to agencies, independent entities and foundations owned by the State Government, totaling R$358,207 on that date, representing services rendered until December 01, 2001, having further agreed to pay the amounts due. Additionally, the State Government acknowledged and agreed to pay amounts owed to the Company in connection with supplemental retirement and pension benefits paid by the Company, on its behalf, in the amount of R$ 320,623 on that date.
The GESP Agreement sets forth that the Water and Electric Power Department DAEE will transfer, as partial payment to the Company, the title to the Taiacupeba, Jundiaí, Biritiba, Paraitinga and Ponte Nova reservoirs, which make up the Alto Tietê System, and the amount of such assets will reduce the amounts owed to the Company. The asset value of these reservoirs was ascertained based on the arithmetic average of independent evaluations carried out by CPOS Companhia de Obras e Serviços (a state-owned building company selected by the State Government) and by ENGEVAL Engenharia de Avaliação (an independent appraisal company selected by the Company). The payment of the amounts owed in excess to the fair market value of the reservoirs, as agreed upon between the parties, shall be effected by the State of São Paulo Government in 114 monthly successive installments, monthly adjusted by the IGP-M index, added by interests of 6% per annum, beginning from the maturity date of the first installment. Under the terms of the Agreement, the first original payment should have been effected in July 2002, however it was postponed because the parties did not reach an agreement as for the fair value of the reservoirs and the audit and specific analysis of the amounts due ascertained by the experts appointed by the State Government were not concluded. The arithmetic average of the market value of the reservoirs at June 30, 2002 was R$300,880, based on the discounted cash flow, reflecting the Companys investments in such reservoirs.
Additionally, pursuant to the memorandum of understanding and the GESP Agreement, the State Government may, in certain circumstances, authorize the Company to use dividends, including interests on net equity stated by the Company and any other obligation payable to the State Government, for offsetting against accounts receivable for services of water supply and sewage collection rendered to the State Government or to its controlled companies.
Based on official letter no. 53/2005, the Council for Defense of the State Capitals CODEC, dated March 21, 2005, renegotiations between the Company and the State Government have been resumed with a view to obtain the settlement of the debt relating to the supplementary retirement and pension benefits, under the terms set forth in the GESP agreement, including amounts overdue after November 2001. These renegotiations must be restated in a second amendment to the Agreement between the State Government and Sabesp. The Company shall retain FIPECAFI to calculate the amounts actually reimbursable by the State Government, taking into consideration the legal advice provided by the State Attorneys Office.
Once the debt amount is calculated and the monetary adjustment criterion is determined, Sabesp will be entitled to take the applicable actions with the DAEE in order to obtain the ownership rights over the Alto Tietê System reservoirs, since no court hindrance exists, having in regard that the State has timely filed an appeal against the judgment rendered in the civil public action and was granted suspension of the effects thereof.
The referred second addendum must provide for the criteria for monthly recovery of future amounts to be disbursed by Sabesp.
Since these renegotiations are at their initial stage, it is not possible to ascertain the net effects over the balance sheet arising from such renegotiation. The management does not estimate that it will incur
significant net losses relating to the differences ascertained between the amounts deemed to be reimbursable by the State Government and the amounts actually paid by Sabesp.
The balances for water and sewage services were included in the 1st amendment as described below (iv).
(iv) First Amendment to the GESP Agreement
On March 22, 2004, the Company and the State Government amended the terms of the original GESP Agreement, thereby (1) consolidating and acknowledging amounts due from the State Government for water and sewage services through February 2004, monetarily adjusted through February 2004; (2) formally providing for the offset of amounts due from the State Government against interest on shareholders equity declared by the Company and any other debt owed to the State Government at December 31, 2003, which were monetarily adjusted through February 2004; and (3) defining the payment terms of the remaining obligations of the State Government for water and sewage services.
Under the terms of the Amendment, the State Government acknowledged amounts due to the Company for water and sewage services provided through February 2004, of R$581,779, and the Company acknowledged amounts due to the State Government with respect to interests on shareholders equity in the amount of R$518,732.
The Company and the State Government have agreed to the reciprocal offset of R$404,889 (monetarily adjusted through February 2004), of which R$299,369 of the corresponding amounts receivable and due by the end of 2004 were settled up to March 31, 2005. The remaining obligation, of R$ 203,537, will be payable in monthly installments from May 2005 through May 2009, subject to monthly monetary adjustment at the Expanded Consumer Price Index IPCA/IBGE, plus interests of 0.5%, of which R$156,893 (R$ 262,413 less JSCP in the amount of R$ 105,520) are recorded in long term assets and R$ 46,644 in current assets.
Management continues to believe that the amounts due from the State Government are collectible and does not expect to incur losses on these accounts receivable.
(b) Cash
The Companys balance of cash and financial investments acounts with financial institutions controlled by the State Government was R$ 244,993 at March 31, 2005 (R$ 72,777 at December 31, 2004). The financial income from such investments was R$ 3,638 and R$ 6,838, in the periods ended on March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
(c) Agreement for use of reservoirs
The Company uses the Guarapiranga and Billings reservoirs and a portion of some of the reservoirs of the Alto Tietê System, which are owned by another company controlled by the State of São Paulo Government. The Company does not pay any fees with respect to the use of these reservoirs, but is responsible for maintaining and funding their operating costs.
The Company has the right to draw water and exploit the reservoirs for a period of 30 years, counted as from 1997.

a) Depreciation:
Depreciation is calculated at the following annual rates: buildings - 4%; networks 2%; equipment 10%; water meters 10%; transportation equipment 20%; computer equipment 20%; building connections 5%, and furniture, fixtures and equipment 10%.
Amortization of intangible assets is effected during the term of the concession agreements entered into with the municipalities served by the Company.
b) Construction in progress
The estimated disbursement as from April 2005, up to 2010, relating to the works already contracted, is approximately R$ 895,000 (not reviewed by the independent auditors).
c) Disposals of property, plant and equipment
For the first quarter of 2005, the Company wrote-off property, plant and equipment in the amount of R$ 884 (2004 R$ 3,142, resulting in a total loss of R$ 2,966), related to the group of properties in use, due to obsolescence, theft or disposal.
d) Expropriations
As a result of the implementation of priority projects related to the water and sewage systems, the Company was forced to expropriate or establish rights of way over third-party properties, in conformity with the relevant legislation. The owners of these properties will be compensated either through negotiated settlements or judicial arbitration. Disbursements to be effected as from the second quarter of 2005 , without a date set for the actual disbursement, are estimated to be approximately R$ 279,900 (not reviewed by the independent auditors), which will be paid out of Company funds. The assets to be received as a result of these negotiations will be recorded as property, plant, and equipment after the transaction is completed. The amount referring to expropriations in the first quarter of 2005 was R$ 407 (2004 R$ 325).
e) Tax effects on assets revaluation
Property, plant and equipment were revaluated in 1990 and 1991 and have been depreciated at annual rates wich take into consideration the estimated remaining economic useful lives of the assets as determined in the respective valuation reports that generally do not exceed the original depreciable lives.
As permitted by CVM Instruction 197/93, the Company did not post a provision for the tax effects (deferred taxes) on the revaluation surplus of property, plant and equipment carried out in 1990 and 1991. Had this effect been accounted for, the amount unrealized up to March 31, 2005 would be R$ 483,909 (Mar/2004 R$ 519,201). In the period from January to March 2005, the realized revaluation reserve was R$ 22,306 (January to March 2004 R$ 23,006).
f) Intangible assets
As from 1998, negotiations relating to new concessions were carried out based on the economic-financial results of the relevant business, as established on appraisal reports issued by independent experts.
The amount provided for in the respective contract, after the transaction is closed with the municipal government and carried out either through subscription of shares in the Company or in cash, is posted to the intangible assets account and amortized over the related concession period.

The debt shall be paid in 120 months, added by interests at the TJLP rate, the amount thereof being subject to homologation by the Federal Revenue Service.
The amount paid since the request for the PAES program was filed, from July 2003 up to March 2005, was R$ 60,325, with provisions for payment of charges having been booked in the amount of R$ 49,316.
The assets listed under the REFIS program, in the amount of R$ 249,034, remain as collateral in the PAES program.
10. PROVISIONS FOR CONTINGENCIES
(a) In current liabilities
The Company has booked the amount of R$ 30,684 (Dec/2004 R$ 30,373) in the current liabilities, under the item Provisions, referring to lawsuits in progress, for which a judgment has been rendered and is currently executed.
(i) Customers these refer to claims filed by customers seeking tariff parity.
(ii) Finsocial On July 1991 an Ordinary Annulment and Declaratory Action was filed by SABESP, through proceedings no. 91.0663460 -5, requesting Finsocial debts to be declared null and void and SABESPs obligation to contribute to Finsocial to be declared extinguished.
Deposits were effected in court, with application of a 2% rate, for the period from April 1991 up to April 1992. On August 30, 1994, authorization was granted for releasing 75% of such deposits, and the remaining 25% thereof, to which a 0.5% rate was applied, remained as court deposit and a provision was booked for such purpose.
Upon the acknowledgement, by the STF Federal Supreme Court, of the constitutionality of assessment of Finsocial on the gross revenue of exclusively service providers, which judgment, in the understanding of our legal counsels, has its effects over the discussion on the merits by SABESP, the Company, on July 26, 2002, discharged the amount of R$ 57,016, corresponding to 1.5% of the total amount due, and requested the conversion into income of the 0.5% kept as court deposit on the Federal Revenue Services behalf, thus dismissing the lawsuit referring to proceedings no. 91.0663460 -5.
(b) In long-term liabilities
The Company, based on an analysis with its legal advisors, recorded a provision for contingencies in the amount of R$ 491,256 (Dec/2004 R$ 460,231), considered sufficient to meet probable losses on legal actions.
(i) Civil claims These refer to claims for material damages, pain and suffering and loss of profits caused to third parties, being currently processed in lower and/or appellate courts, with provisions having been duly booked for those classified as probable loss.
(ii) Contractors these refer to actions filed by construction companies alleging underpayment of monetary adjustments, withholding of amounts related to disregard of effects of the Real Plan and economic-financial unbalance of the contract. These actions are currently processed at lower and/or appellate courts, with provisions having been duly booked for those classified as probable loss.
(iii) Customers these refer to actions filed by commercial customers claiming tariff parity, and consequently, refund of amounts collected by the Company. Decisions to date have been both favorable and unfavorable to the Company in lower and/or appellate courts, with provisions having been duly booked for those classified as probable loss.
(iv) Environmental claims these refer to several administrative proceedings brought by public agencies, including Companhia de Tecnologia de Saneamento Ambiental CETESB, seeking the imposition of fine for environmental damages purportedly caused by the Company.
(v) Labor claims the Company is defending several labor claims, referring to overtime, health hazard and risk, prior dismissal notice, job diversion, salary parity and others, most of the amounts involved being under provisional or definite execution, at lower and/or appellate courts, thus being classified as of probable loss and, consequently, duly provisioned.
(c) Lawsuits classified as possible loss
The Company is a defendant in lawsuits and administrative proceedings relating to environmental, tax, civil and labor issues, which are deemed by our legal advisors to be possible losses and which are not provisioned in the Companys accounts. The aggregate amount referring to such proceedings is of approximately R$ 1,204,286 at March 31, 2005 (Dec/2004 R$ 1,146,800)
(d) Tax proceedings
In December 2002 a São Paulo municipality law was enacted which revoked the Companys status as tax-exempted. SABESP then filed a petition for writ of mandamus against the enforcement of such law that might subject the Company to payment of the tax on services. The preliminary injunction was granted and upheld after an appeal was filed by the plaintiff. However, in May 2005 a judgment was rendered by a lower court denying the writ of mandamus to SABESP. On May 10, 2005, the Company filed a motion for clarification of judgment and intends to file an appeal against such decision to the maximum extent permitted by law. No provision has been booked for a possible loss of its status as exempted from local taxes on services, since the case was considered by the Companys counsel as possible loss.
11. PENSION AND HEALTH BENEFIT PLANS
The Company is the sponsor of Fundação Sabesp de Seguridade Social SABESPREV, an entity organized in August 1990 with the main purpose of managing Sabesps employees complementary pension and health benefit plans.
The monthly contributions to the defined benefit pension plan amount to 2.10% by the Company and 2.19% by participants.
The contributions made by participants, as mentioned above, represent an average amount, once the deduction from the payroll depends on salary levels, between 1% and 8.5% .
The health benefit program, made up by optional health plans of free choice, is also funded by contributions by the sponsor and participating employees, which in the year were as follows:
. Company: 6.21% on average of the payroll;
. Participating employees: 3.21% of base salary and bonus, corresponding to 2.25% of the gross payroll, on average.
12. BENEFITS TO EMPLOYEES
In order to meet the provisions in CVM Deliberation no. 371 of December 13, 2000, the amounts of the pension and retirement benefits granted or to be granted, to which employees are entitled after retirement, are presented below.
At December 31, 2004, based on an independent actuary report, SABESP had a net actuarial liability of R$ 328,605, representing the difference between the present value of the Companys liability to the participating employees, retired employees, and pensioners, and the fair value of the plan assets.
The Company chose to recognize the liability over a five-year period as from 2002. The Actuarial Liabilities at March 31, 2005, in the amount of R$ 235,963 (Dec/2004 R$ 222,176), is recorded in Long-Term Liabilities.
In 2005 the estimated expense is R$ 65,705. Expenses were recorded from January to March 2005, as shown below:
1Q/05 | 1Q/04 | |||
Repassed to Sabesprev | 3,338 | 3,291 | ||
Actuarial liability recorded | 13,787 | 19,109 | ||
Total recorded | 17,125 | 22,400 |
13. PROFIT SHARING
As a result of negotiations held by the Company with entities representing the employees, a Profit Sharing Program was implemented for the period from July 2004 to June 2005, with the payment of an amount corresponding to up to one months payroll, depending on achievement of targets.
In December 2004, the Company paid in advance 20,717, equivalent to 50% of one months payroll; a provision in the amount of R$ 10,771 was booked for the quarter period, which is recorded in current liabilities, with the supplementary payment to be made by the end of August 2005.
14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
(a) Market value of financial instruments
The calculation to determine the market value of these financial instruments is made annually by the Companys Management.
(b) Concentration of credit risk
A significant portion of sales is made to a broad customer base. Credit risk is mitigated due to the large portfolio and the control procedures, which monitor this risk.
The allowance for possible loan losses is sufficient to cover realization losses.
(c) Foreign currency
Transactions in foreign currency consist of borrowings for specific works of improvement and expansion of the Companys water supply and sewage collection and treatment services.

16. COMPENSATION FOR CONCESSION TERMINATION
The Municipalities of Diadema and Mauá terminated the concessions of water supply and sewage collection at the beginning of 1995.
In December 1996, SABESP filed claims to seek payment of amounts owed by the municipality of Diadema. The lower court judge rendered an unfavorable decision to SABESP, against which an appeal was filed on November 2000. No decision had been rendered for the appeal up to March 2005. This claim was followed by several other related legal procedures, which are currently pending decision.
The residual net book value of property, plant and equipment relating to the Municipality of Diadema, written-off in December 1996, amounted to R$ 75,231, and the claim balance and other receivables from the municipality amounting to R$ 62,876 are recorded under long-term receivables in Compensation for concession termination.
SABESP executed a memorandum of intent with the municipality of Mauá when the concession was terminated, through which Mauá agreed to pay the amounts owed to the Company for the reversal of the water and sewage systems. However, the Mauá City Hall has never paid any amount whatsoever. SABESP filed a collection proceeding in December 1996 against Mauá. By way of indemnity, the judgment rendered in 2004 sentenced Mauá City Hall and SAMA to pay the amount of R$ 153.2 million, duly adjusted in accordance with the practical table of the São Paulo State Justice Court, as from March 2000, added by interests since the service of process, legal costs and expenses and 20% attorneys fees. This award was converted into judgment, subject to double jurisdiction. An appeal was filed by Mauá City Hall and SAMA and SABESP has recently filed its counterarguments against the appeal.
The residual value of property, plant and equipment relating to the Municipality of Mauá, written off in fiscal year 1999, amounted to R$ 103,763, and the claim balance, in the amount of R$ 85,918, is recorded in long term assets, under Compensation for concession termination.
Both claims are pending court decision, and the legal advisor conducting the litigation considers that (a) a favorable outcome for the Company in the Mauá lawsuit is probable, and (b) a favorable outcome for the Company in Diadema lawsuit is possible.

SABESP recorded net operating revenue of R$ 1,158.7 million, with EBITDA of R$ 559.3 million in the 1Q05. The final result for the period, a profit of R$ 151.4 million, was mainly due to the 9.9% increase in the gross operating revenue.
2. Gross operating revenue 6.6% growth
The net operating revenue recorded an increase of R$ 71.3 million, or 6.6%, which is a result of the 6.8% tariff adjustment as from August 29, 2004. However, such increase was minimized by the changes occurred in the COFINS-PASEP legislation.
The revenue was also influenced by the 4.1% increase in water consumption and sewage services, which also contributed to the growth in the operating revenue, since part of the consumers migrated to consumption levels with a higher tariff.
The charts below show volumes of water and sewage services billed to the retail market broken down by user category and region in the first quarters of 2004 and 2005:

Costs, Administrative and Selling Expenses | 705.6 | 744.9 | 39.3 | 5.6 | ||||
3.1. Salaries and Payroll Charges
These reported a 0.3% increase of R$ 0.8 million. Such increase is mainly due to the 4.2% salary, benefits and charges increase, as from May 2004, as a result of the collective labor agreement, which was partially offset by the Stimulated Resignation Program PDI.
3.2. General Supplies
These reported a R$ 4.0 million or 19.8% increase, mainly due to supplies used for maintenance of residential water connections in the amount of R$ 1.2 million, maintenance of systems in the amount of R$ 1.0 million and fuels and lubricating oils for the Companys vehicles, in the amount of R$ 0.5 million.
3.3. Treatment Supplies
These posted a R$ 3.6 million or 13.1% increase, caused by variation in the following materials: activated carbon, in the amount of R$ 1.0 million, chlorine in the amount of R$ 0.9 million, copper sulphate in the amount of R$ 0.6 million and net aluminum sulphate in the amount of R$ 1.3 million. These increases are due to water quality deterioration and, in the case of chlorine, to price adjustment.
3.4. Services
These recorded a R$ 12.7 million or 14.3% increase, mainly in technical professional services in the amount of R$ 10.1 million and water meter reading and delivery of water bills in the amount of R$ 1.9 million. The water distribution
system maintenance program for the metropolitan region of São Paulo (Global Sourcing) contributed with R$ 8.0 million increase in expenses such as paving and pavement replacement and maintenance of household connections.
Such increase was partially offset by a reduction in publicity and advertising expenses in the amount of R$ 8.2 million (R$ 2.4 million in 2005 and R$ 10.7 million in 2004), having in consideration the reduction in expenses due to the
change in the communication strategy of publicity campaigns for reasonable use of water.
3.5. Electric Power
This recorded a R$ 1.2 million or 1.2% increase, caused by the average growth of 17.5% in electric power tariffs. As far as electric power consumption is concerned, there was a 0.6% drop in the first quarter of 2005 (510,615 MWh) in relation to
the same period of 2004 (513,970 MWh).
Some factors influenced over the proportion between the 1.2% financial percentile, with the average tariff adjustment calculated in 17.5%: (i) entry of Sabesp in the Free Electric Power Market, providing significant reductions in expenses (30.0% in
some facilities), (ii) result of electric power savings provided by the Energy Efficiency Program, and (iii) improvement of performance towards better management of high voltage electric power contracts.
3.6. General Expenses
These increased by R$ 9.0 million or 30.8%, a result, mainly, of the provision for civil contingencies, in the amount of R$ 6.7 million (increase in the number of lawsuits) and allowance for losses in the amount of R$ 3.9 million.
3.7. Depreciation and Amortization
These recorded a R$ 2.0 million or 1.4% increase, resulting from transfers of works in progress to the operating property, plant and equipment in fiscal year 2004, in the amount of R$ 828.8 million.
3.8. Credit Write-off
This recorded a R$ 6.4 million or 16.2% increase, of which R$ 15.2 million were due to credits write-off and R$ 8.8 million were due recovery.
4. Financial Expenses and Inflation and Exchange Losses on Monetary Items
4.1 Financial Expenses
These recorded a R$ 0.2 million increase, as a result of:
4.2 Inflation and Exchange Losses on Monetary Items

16.01 OTHER INFORMATION DEEMED BY THE COMPANY TO BE RELEVANT |
Supplementary Information
In order to improve the information provided to the market, the Company is presenting, as supplementary information, the financial statements in a constant purchasing power currency.
1. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION IN CONSTANT PURCHASING POWER CURRENCY
(a) Monetary indexation
The monetary indexation of the operations relating to the permanent assets, shareholders equity, income statement accounts and ascertainment of profits and losses in monetary items was measured based on the variation of the Accounting Monetary Unit UMC, taking for basis the variation of the General Market Prices Index IGP-M in the 1st quarter, of 1.55% .
(b) Balance sheet accounts
Amounts related to monetary assets and liabilities presented in constant purchasing power currency are identical to those presented in accordance with the corporate legislation, except for accounts receivable from customers, accounts payable to suppliers and contractors, deferred income tax and social contribution in long-term liabilities, which are adjusted to reflect the purchasing power or currency realization at March 31, 2005, taking for basis the rate determined by the National Association of Investment Banks ANBID.
Permanent assets and shareholders equity were adjusted based on the monthly variation of the UMC, updated by the IGP-M up to March 31, 2005.
(c) Income statement accounts
All the income statement accounts were indexed for inflation based on the variation of the UMC, as from the month when they were booked, adjusted in accordance with inflation gains and losses ascertained on the balances at the beginning and end of every month for monetary assets and liabilities, and which generated financial or nominal inflationary expenses and income, which were considered to reduce the respective income statement accounts to which they were attached.
(d) Deferred taxes and contributions
Deferred income tax and social contribution were calculated based on the rates of 15% plus additional 10% and 9%, respectively, on the surplus value of the properties and rights in the permanent assets generated by the result of their monetary adjustment, in conformity with the instructions of the CVM, as provided for in Communication no. 99/006 issued by the IBRACON Brazilian Institute of Independent Accountants.
