and waste reduction initiatives, in order to achieve regulatory and efficiency goals. As a result, the Company
aims to meet the demands of clients and granting authorities, seeking to universalize its services.
1.2. Regulatory Framework
On June 29, 2019, ARSAE-MG disclosed its Resolution 127/2019, which authorized the average adjustment of
8.38% in the water supply and sewage service tariffs of the Parent Company (COPASA MG). The application
occurred on a pro-rated basis for consumptions registered in August and in full as from September 2019.
Following the adjustments established in the tariff revision concluded in 2017, there was a change in the tariff
structure for sewage services and, as of the adjustment applied on August 1, 2019, the EDT tariff (Sewage with
Collection and Treatment) currently accounts for 97.5% of the water tariff, while the EDC tariff (Sewage with
Collection Only) currently accounts for 31.25% of water tariff.
For the 2020 adjustment, expected to be implemented in August, these percentages will account for 100% and
25% of the water tariffs, respectively.
The tariff revision, which consists of a reassessment of service rendering and market conditions, is scheduled for
2021.
1.3. Coronavirus
According to the Notice to the Market disclosed on March 23, 2020 and complemented by the Notice to the
Market released on April 27, 2020, with the objective of ensuring the best services and minimizing the impacts
of the coronavirus (COVID 19) pandemic to the population, the Company took several measures, with the
agreement of ARSAE - MG, in particular:
Clients in the Social Residential Category: no cuts to water supply until May 30, 2020, including non-
collection of interest and fines on overdue and unpaid bills by the same date.
The debts of the residential, commercial, industrial and public categories, the down payment value, for the
negotiation of debts, will be 5% of the total debt or the average of the last 12 months bills (whichever is less),
and the remainder in installments up to 24 months, with interest of 0.5%. The debts of customers of the Social
Tariff can be paid in up to 36 months, with down payment of 5% or the value of an average bills for the last 12
months (whichever is less). It is worth mentioning that, under normal circumstances, the debts of the Company's
customers were paid in up to 24 installments, with down payment of 20% of the bills amount and interest of 1%
per month.
Commercial customers, whose activities are suspended, due to the legal restrictions imposed by the various
levels of government: extension of the payment period for accounts due up to April 20, 2020 will be postponed
to May 20, 2020 and for accounts due from April 21 until May 30, 2020, will be postponed to June 30, 2020.
Suspension Notice: customers who received notice of suspension of water supply between February 23, 2020
and March 20, 2020, the payment deadline was extended to 20.04.2020. For those who received the suspension
notice between March 21 and April 30, 2020, the payment deadline will be extended to May 30, 2020.
Regarding customer assistance, the Customer Service Agencies have been closed since March 23, 2020. In this
period, customer assistance is being provided exclusively through remote channels - phone number 115, Copasa
Digital app, and Virtual Agency.
Internal water meters are not being read to avoid unnecessary contact between the population and our readers.
For these clients, the Company will use the average of the last few months. For properties where the water meter
is freely accessible at the street, the readings will proceed as usual.

1Q20 Earnings Release
The Company has been maintaining teams with special schedules in the operational area throughout the State to
ensure that the quality of the water supply and sewage services will not be compromised and the compliance
with the required legal standards.
Moreover, nearly all employees in administrative areas are working remotely (“home office”).
As for the financial impacts resulting from the business pandemic, the Company remains monitoring, in order to
measure any economic and financial effects that may impact financial and equity conditions and compromise
compliance with the Business Plan.
In this sense, the Company has also been acting in sectoral discussions with the Federal Government, in such a
way as to highlight the importance of support to, in particular, guarantee the continuity of service provision in
the most vulnerable municipalities and populations.
Also, the constant discussion with the regulatory body stands out, so that the conditions for maintaining the
economic-financial balance in the contractual relations signed with the Municipalities are observed, and in this
way, guaranteeing the economic and financial sustainability of the Company.
As measures to preserve the cash flow, the postponement of the payment of taxes will be adopted, as permitted
by the federal tax authorities: PIS, COFINS, Social Security Contribution referring to the employer's quota of
20% and the Environmental Risk of Work (RAT), as well as the deferral of FGTS, with a view to extending the
terms provided for in Provisional Measures and Normative Instructions, as well as adherence to the measure
disclosed by the BNDES for the suspension of payments of debt related to loans, for a period of 180 days from
April 15, 2020. In addition, the Costing Budget and the Investment Program may be revised to adapt to the
planned spending schedules.
The Company has been monitoring the collection of bills for water and sewage services on a daily basis, having
underperformed during April. These are the initial impacts of the pandemic currently being measured.
1.4. Shareholders’ Compensation
1.4.1. Dividend Policy (Revised by the ESM held on May 7, 2018)
1.4.1.1. Regular Dividends
The Board of Directors shall define, by March 31 of each year, the percentage of Adjusted Net Income to be
distributed, observing the statutory minimum of 25% and the limit of 50%.
Dividends shall be declared on a quarterly basis with payment in up to 60 days from the approval date, except
for amounts referring to the fourth quarter, which will be defined at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting (ASM).
1.4.1.2. Extraordinary Dividends
In conjunction with the disclosure of the Annual Financial Statements (DFs) and the Interim Financial
Information (ITR) for the second quarter of each year, Management shall proceed with and disclose the
Calculation of the Regulatory Alignment, already considering the payment of Regular Dividends, in order to
evaluate if it is within the margin considered efficient (Efficient Margin of Regulatory Leverage) and if this index
is:
a) Above the margin: the Board of Directors will define that the distribution percentage of the Adjusted Net
Income will be the required legal minimum amount.
6
1Q20 Earnings Release
b) Within the margin: payout will be based on the criteria and limits defined for the distribution of Regular
Dividends.
c) Below the margin: the Board of Directors may declare Extraordinary Dividends up to three (3) months after
the disclosure of the DFs and ITR of the second quarter of each year, which will consist of an additional
remuneration that is sufficient to so that the lower level of such margin is reached. This declaration will occur
after the conduction of studies that indicate that any payment of Extraordinary Dividends will not jeopardize the
Company’s financial health, its investment plan or current liquidity.
The calculation of the Regulatory Framework for the current regulatory cycle corresponds to the Net
Debt/EBITDA ratio (the Company’s current Net Debt divided by the accumulated EBITDA of the 12 months
prior to the calculation period), which should reach 2.10x, with a margin of 0.10x up or down.
1.4.2. Shareholders’ Compensation - 2020
1.4.2.1. Regular Dividends
At the meeting held on March 19, 2020, the Board of Directors approved that the distribution of dividends for
2020 will correspond to 25% of the Adjusted Net Income, as Interest on Equity (IOE).
In compliance with said Policy, on March 20, 2020 the Board of Directors approved the declaration of interest
on equity for 1Q20, as follows:

Extraordinary Dividends, as per the Company’s Dividend Policy and the statutory covenants, the matter will be

the current scenario of economic and social uncertainties resulting from the COVID 19 pandemic.

3. Hydrological Situation
3.1. Belo Horizonte Metropolitan Area (BHMA)
3.1.1. Rio Manso, Vargem das Flores and Serra Azul Reservoirs
As of 2014, the evolution of the Rio Manso, Vargem das Flores and Serra Azul reservoir levels, which account
for 47% of supplying the BHMA, is as follows. Due to the heavy rains registered in the state of Minas Gerais,
during the first quarter of 2020, the volume of these reservoirs showed a significant recovery and are practically
full, as can be seen in the graph below:
3.1.2. Das Velhas River
The water drawn from Rio das Velhas, responsible for approximately 42% of the volume distributed at BHMA,
is collected directly from the stream, thus being greatly influenced by the occurrence of rainfall, given its location
in the upper part of the watershed. The table below shows information on this collection system:
Rio das Velhas System
BHMA population served 42%
Water collection concession 8.7 m³/s
Average flow in the last 15 days prior to 15.04.2020 51.4 m³/s
Average flow used in the last 12 months 6.8 m³/s
3.1.3. Rupture of the Mina Córrego do Feijão Dam - Brumadinho (MG)
Due to the rupture of the Mina Córrego do Feijão Dam on January 25, 2019, located in the municipality of
Brumadinho and operated by Vale, the Company took actions to identify and mitigate the risks to its operation.
11
1Q20 Earnings Release
Preventively, the company closed the floodgates of the water collection unit in the Paraopeba River on the same
day of the rupture, aiming at the preservation of the collection facilities, whose assets did not deteriorate, so they
were not compromised.
In July 2019, the Prosecution Office of the Minas Gerais State and Vale signed a Term of Commitment, with
COPASA MG as intervening party, for the construction of a new collection point on the Paraopeba River, which
is expected to be concluded on September 30, 2020. The Term also includes the obligation to provide other
structures necessary for the conduction of water.
Under the Term of Commitment, the actions are accompanied and audited by the Public Prosecution Office of
the Minas Gerais State by means of an independent consulting firm.
Regarding the Rio das Velhas System, as provided for in the Term of Commitment, Vale has already concluded
preventive works to mitigate risks to said System, as there are tailing dams located in Rio das Velhas basin,
classified as alert 3 level.
3.2. Other municipalities in the Minas Gerais State
The Company’s activities in the interior of the State are dispersed over several municipalities and different
watersheds. Generally speaking, most of the locations where the Company provides services has e a local source
of water production. Therefore, any water restriction imposed on supply will only impact locally and marginally
the Company’s total revenues.
In order to minimize the impacts of the water situation, the Company uses means that contribute to the
regularization of supply in the affected locations, such as water trucks, well drilling and investments in alternative
collections, according to the options available in each region and the level of scarcity criticality in each case.
Additionally, awareness campaigns on the rational consumption of water are intensified.
Specifically with regard to Montes Claros, the Company's largest concession in the interior of the State, an
alternative fundraising operation in the São Francisco River is in the bidding process. This undertaking aims to
meet the commitments agreed upon when the concession was renewed for the provision of water supply and
sewage services in Montes Claros, signed in July 2018.
On April 15, 2020, five (5) municipalities were in a rationing situation: Curral de Dentro, Divisa Alegre, Ipaba
(Vale Verde de Minas), Itanhomi (Edgard Melo) and Urucânia, which together represent approximately 17
thousand water connections

The Company’s comments on the main factors that influenced water and sewage net revenue in the comparative
periods are as follows:
average tariff adjustment of 8.38%, applied for consumptions registered from August/2019;
growth in the number of consumer units of water (1.5%) and sewage (1.7%);
change in the tariff level in the last 12 months in five (5) municipalities in several regions of the State, where
approximately 57,000 units migrated from EDC (Sewage with Collection only) to EDT (Sewage with Collection
and Treatment), due to the start of sewage treatment.
change in client registration in the social residential category, due to revision in the CadÚnico basis
nationwide;
2.8% decrease in water and sewage volumes per unit, mainly due to the heavy rains recorded in the months
of January and February 2020, in a large part of the State, with emphasis on the BHMA;
deductions totaling R$2.1 million from exemptions of billings to assist victims affected by storms in the Minas
Gerais State; tariff compensations will be carried out later, as agreed upon with ARSAE-MG. (See Notice to the
Market disclosed on February 4, 2020).

The following section presents the Company’s comments on the items that make up the costs of sales and services
rendered, selling and administrative expenses (excluding construction costs) that presented the most significant
changes:
4.2.1. Manageable Costs
4.2.1.1. Personnel
Personnel expenses increased by 7.3% from the same period in 2019, mainly due to:
increase in salaries and charges, due to provision for the 2019 collective bargaining agreement, which was
based on the National Consumer Price Index (INPC) accumulated from May 2018 to April 2019 (5.07%);
8.8% increase in health plan expenses.
14
1Q20 Earnings Release
4.2.1.2. Outsourced Services
This item fell by 13.3%. The most significant changes as follows:
R$9.8 million decrease in expenses with services for the conservation and maintenance of assets and systems,
due to the revision of the breakdown of operational service costs in new agreements signed, enabling contracting
services with prices below those already charged in several regional managements of the State, as well as
prioritizing the performance of part of the services through its own team, due to intense rains recorded in a large
part of the state in the months of January and February;
R$8.6 million decrease in vehicle fleet lease expenses, which, due to the adoption of CPC 06 (R2), which
started to be booked as depreciation and interest in profit or loss;
R$3.7 million decrease in expenses with collection and charging services, as a result of the non-recurring
payment of R$3.7 million in 1Q19, from negotiations with the main collection agent; and
R$2.3 million increase in marketing and advertising expenses, due to the need to implement several
advertising campaigns, especially those related to initiatives implemented to mitigate the impacts to victims of
heavy rains in January and February 2020.
4.2.1.3. Rio Manso PPP
The year-over-year decrease recorded in 1Q20 was due to the reduction in expenses with electricity, due to the
lower use of this input after the suspension of water intake from the Paraopeba River.
4.2.1.4. Provision for Doubtful Accounts (PDA)
The 2.7% variation was mainly due to the 2019 tariff adjustment, applied from August 2019, as well as the
improvement, in 1Q20, of the methodology for recognizing these losses.
The net PDA value of receivables, arising from the difference between PDA and the recovery of written-off
accounts (recorded under Other Operating Revenues) increased 30.9% in 1Q20 compared to 1Q19, as follows:

4.2.1.5. Tariff Transfers to Municipalities
The 49.0% increase in 1Q20 vs. 1Q19 was mainly due to the transfer of 59 new municipalities to municipal
sanitation funds, as of the tariff adjustment in August 2019. For this adjustment, 60 municipalities that met the
requirements established by the Agency were qualified, of which only the amount referring to the municipality
of Belo Horizonte was recognized in the tariff applied until then. The estimated amount for transfers in the annual
tariff cycle (August 2019 to July 2020) corresponds to R$75.1 million, of which R$49.9 million refers to the
municipality of Belo Horizonte and the remaining R$25.2 million to the other 59 municipalities. ARSAE-MG
Resolution 110/2018 regulated the tariff recognition of transfers to municipal sanitation funds.
The complete list of municipalities qualified for the current tariff cycle can be found on pages 23 and 24 of the
GFE Economic Inspection Report 06/2019.
4.2.2. Non-Manageable Costs
15
1Q20 Earnings Release
4.2.2.1. Electricity
Electricity expenses increased 4.7% in 1Q20. Comments on the main factors that influenced electricity are as
follows:
impacts from the change in the accounting of PIS/PASEP and COFINS credits which, as described in item
4.2.2.4. Tax credits, are now directly recorded in each expense account deemed as input in the production process.
With this change, this item fell by R$11.5 million in 1Q20 vs. 1Q19.
2.1% increase in electricity consumption, due to higher operational demand; and
7.3% increase in electricity costs, due to Cemig’s tariff adjustment and the 3 p.p. decrease of the tariff subsidy,
both of them in May 2019, as well as the impacts of expenses with tariff flags.
4.2.2.2. Telecommunication
The 8.4% increase was mainly due to readjustments of data transmission contracts and higher data consumption.
4.2.2.3. Treatment Chemicals
The variation in this item is mainly due to the increase in the price of the main treatment materials used in the
water treatment process, as well as higher prices of the main chemicals used.
4.2.2.4. Tax Credits
The 56.7% decrease was due to the gradual implementation of a solution for the automatic accounting of
PIS/COFINS tax credits. With the change, tax credits are directly recorded in each expense account deemed as
input in the production process (materials, services, electricity, fuels, among others).
Considering the methodology previously used, tax credits totaled R$32.6 million in 1Q20, up 10.5% from 1Q19.

in 1Q20, mainly due to:
a decrease of R$7.4 million in the recovery of written-off accounts (other operating income).
R$13.6 million increase in the Payment and Non-Deductible Provision account (Other Operating Expenses),
of which (i) R$7.9 million due to risk reclassification, monetary restatement and the constitution of a provision
for civil and labor lawsuits sprayed; and (ii) R$4.8 million referring to the write-off of judicial deposits of
completed cases, in which the Company was not successful.

4.5.1. Financial Revenues
The 136.0% increase in financial revenue in 1Q20 vs. 1Q19 reflects the foreign exchange variation on assets in
dollars in the amount of USD22.9 million (equivalent to BRL119.2 million), which will pay off the last
installment to mature from debt in that currency in 2024.
4.5.2. Financial Expenses
The increase of 127.9% in financial expenses, in relation to 1Q19, is mainly due to the 29% appreciation in the
dollar and 26% in the euro observed during 1Q20. It is worth mentioning that the Company's debt in dollars, on
March 31, 2020, was USD25.6 million (equivalent to BRL133.4 million) and, in euros, it was EUR 44.7 million
(equivalent to BRL256.0 million).

4.8.2. EBITDA with Adjustments to Non-Manageable Items
EBITDA with adjustments to non-manageable items is not a measure recognized by the Accounting Practices
Adopted in Brazil or by IFRS, does not have a standard meaning and may not be comparable to measures with
similar securities provided by other companies.
According to its methodology, the Regulatory Agency estimates the amounts to be spent by the Company in the
annual tariff cycle, referring to non-manageable costs (electricity, treatment chemicals, fuels and lubricants,
telecommunications, and taxes and fees).
An off-balance sheet account is created throughout the annual tariff cycle in order to guarantee neutrality in the
variation prices of these items. This account records any differences between the estimated prices and those
actually observed. The balance of this account is adjusted by the Selic rate and included in the calculation of the
tariff repositioning index, with positive or negative impacts on the adjustment.
See below the calculation of EBITDA, considering the estimated adjustments to non-manageable items:

5.1. Gross Debt and Net Debt
As shown in the graph below, a gross accounting debt, which was R$3.48 billion in March 2019, decreased by
3.1%, reaching R$3.37 billion in March 2020. The net debt reached R$2.67 billion in March 2020 (R$3.08 billion
in March 2019). The leverage ratio, measured by the Net Debt / EBITDA ratio in the last 12 months, reached
1.5x (2.0 in March 2019).
Foreign currency debt represented 11.5% of gross debt in March 2020 (9.9% in March 2019). For the operation
with the bank KfW, whose outstanding balance was €44.7 million (equivalent to BRL 256.0 million in March
2020), there was no hedge mechanism contracted. The debt with Banco do Brasil (debt originally contracted
from external financial institutions and inserted into an agreement between the Brazilian government and
international financial community, for restructuring the external debt of the Brazilian public sector with
international private creditors), whose outstanding balance was USD 25.6 million (equivalent to BRL 133.6
million in March 2020), is guaranteed by Brazilian Securities Bonds in foreign exchange, in the amount of USD
22.9 million (equivalent to BRL 119.2 million at the end of 1Q20), guaranteed by Banco do Brasil, adjusted by
the average prices of the United States Treasury's Zero Coupon bonds.

5.3. Corporate Ratings
On January 24, 2020, the Rating Agency Moody’s published a report raising the Company’s ratings for corporate
and senior debt without guarantee, from Ba3 to Ba2 in the global scale, and from A1.br to Aa3.br in the Brazilian
scale. The ratings’ outlook was changed from positive to stable. At the same time, Moody’s raised the assessment
of the individual credit risk profile from ba3 to ba2.
According to the Agency, the rise in the ratings was driven by the solid operating performance, which led to the
maintenance of strong credit metrics, as well as the Company’s more robust corporate governance structure, with
the creation of an audit committee and a dividend policy based on leverage.
The last report from Fitch Ratings was disclosed on July 11, 2019. The Company’s Long-Term National Rating
and its debenture issues remained with the AA(bra) rating. At the time, the corporate rating’s outlook was
changed from stable to positive.

government and the international financial community to restructure the foreign debt of the Brazilian public sector with international private
creditors. Under this agreement, approved by the Federal Senate by means of Resolution 98 of December 29, 1992, the debt was exchanged
for bonds issued by the Federal Government, which became the debtor before foreign creditors. Several types of bonds at interest rates
consistent with those used in the international financial market were issued to replace the principal installments.
