films in acetate and nitrate in different sizes, and 

10,000 more copies in paper. Also included are 49 

corporate volumes, totaling 2,900 pages. 

BOOK FAIR

For the tenth consecutive year Enersis sponsored the 

International Book Fair of Santiago. This uninterrupted 

support shows Enersis’ commitment with culture. On 

its last edition, this Fair was visited by more than 

200,000 people. 

ENERGY INFORMATION CENTER

An Energy Information Center is located in Enersis’ 

corporate building. In this place, teaching is developed 

in a didactical way to show how electricity is produced 

and how it is delivered to industrial facilities and 

houses. During 2001, this center was visited by 3,600 

students of the Metropolitan Region.

Finally, it is worth pointing out that there are a series 

of minor initiatives, as the donation of a library to 

the city of Cunco, the sponsoring (together with Metro 

de Santiago) of the literary contest “A Tale in A 

Hundred Words”, the support of the efforts of the Real 

Academia de la Lengua to include the new idioms 

of America, and the production of a compact disc 

called “The voices of my ancestors”, with the best Latin 

American folkloric music performed by “Los Huasos 

Quincheros”.

Financial activities

As of December 31, 2001 there is a 1.4 

times indebtedness coefficient at a 

consolidated level.

CHILECTRA’S PHOTOGRAPHIC ARCHIVE

In a ceremony that took place on December, the 

Enersis group opened the photograph exhibition 

“Lights of Modernity” and presented a book with the 

same name at the National History Museum. Both 

initiatives are part of the project that aims to recover 

the photographic archive of Chilectra, which 

collects images of Santiago taken 

between 1920 and 1930.

With these activities, not 

only the photographic archive 

of the company is recovered and 

revalued, but it also leads to a 

significant step in the construction of 

the historical patrimony of the country, and 

 
In this sense, during 2001, Enersis subscribed the

for the B2 series.

With the resources from these funding, pre-payments 

of the bilateral credits were made. These were taken 

within the framework defined by the so called Genesis 

Project in 1999, and the purchases of Chilectra, Río 

Maipo and the additional purchase of Cerj were 

rescheduled, all of them in December, 2000. 

As far as amendments to credit agreements, the credits 

with Elesur for US$ 1,566 million and the bilateral 

credits of the Genesis Project for US$ 424 million along 

the year were renewed.

With the resources of the above mentioned bonds 

and under quite advantageous conditions, Enersis, 

through its subsidiary Enersis International, partially 

repurchased part of an international bonds issuing of 

Enersis Agency in Cayman Islands (Yankee Bonds) for 

a US$ 100 million nominal value, which was placed 

at a 7.4% annual rate and due date in 2016.  Such 

operation yielded a US$ 8 million profit, which was 

acknowledged as out of non operating income.

projects.

On May 11, 1999, Enersis acquired an additional 35% 

interest in the ownership of Endesa Chile, where it 

already held a 25% of the capital stock. Consequently, 

Enersis attained a 60% share in the ownership of 

the generation company and became its controlling 

shareholder, allowing Enersis to consolidate itself as 

the largest private electricity Group in Latin America.

On the other hand, important operations were carried 

out during 2000 which may be summarized as 

follows: the Company’s equity increased by US$520 

million. Furthermore, proceeds of US$1.4 billion were 

received as a result of the sale of our subsidiaries 

Transelec, Esval, Aguas Cordillera and some real estate 

investments, within the strategic scope provided for in 

the Genesis Project.  

Moreover, important investments were made along the 

year: US$364 million to increase the company’s stake 

in the capital stock of Chilectra; US$150 million in 

the purchasing of Edesur’s capital stock by 10%, in 

Argentina, which was owned by the company workers; 

US$132 million to increase the participation in the 

Another development factor is its exceptional team of 

professionals that actively interact with the subsidiaries, 

providing them with assistance in evaluating their 

investment projects and are permanently alert to new 

business opportunities in their respective business 

areas in the Latin American market.

The above mentioned factors enable Enersis to make 

investments that contribute to the growth of profits, 

with an adequate weighting of risks deriving from its 

business activities.

Investments and divestments

CHILE

As envisaged in the Genesis Project, the subsidiary 

Endesa Chile sold Infrastructure 2000 for 

UF 2,253,000, in April 2001.

As well, also within the Genesis Project, Enersis 

obtained US$23 million for the disposal of single

Company ownership

In July 1992, as a result of an international public deed, 

51% of the property of Edesur was granted to Distrilec 

Inversora S.A.

In December 1995, the Enersis Group increased 

its direct and indirect participation in Edesur by 

purchasing the 39% that had remained the property of 

the Argentinean state, and so becoming the controlling 

Group with the highest stock participation.

On May 31, 2000, Edesur completed the operation 

of redemption of Class “C” shares of the Participant 

Ownership Program, representing 10% of the corporate 

capital of the distribution company. Enersis Group

Application of Constant Chilean Pesos

The consolidated fi nancial statements included herein have been restated for general price-level changes and expressed 

in constant Chilean pesos of December 31, 2001 purchasing power.

 
 
 
 
Accounts Inspector’s Report

Pursuant to the provisions in law No. 18,046 on  Limited Liability Stock Companies and in compliance with the mandate 
granted by the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 02, 2001, we have examined the Consolidated Financial 
Statements of Enersis S.A. for period between January 1 and December 31, 2001.

Our assignment was focused on verifying, on a selecyive basis, the coincidence of the fi gures presented in the Financial 
Statements with the offi cial records of the Company and its subsidiaries and to such and end we compared the fi gures 
presented in the ledger with the grouping and classifi caton worksheets. To subsequently ascertain if these amounts 
which are the balances of accounts of the same nature match with those included in the Financial Statements, a revision 
which entailed no objections.

Report of Independent Accountants

(Translation of a report originally issued in Spanish – See Note 2 to the consolidated fi nancial statements)

To the Shareholders of Enersis S.A.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Enersis S.A. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of 
December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash fl ows for 
the years then ended. These fi nancial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility 
is to express an opinion on these fi nancial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the fi nancial statements of 
the subsidiary Endesa – Chile S.A., which statements refl ect total assets and total revenues of 30 percent and 18 percent 
in 2000, and 30 percent and 23 percent in 2001, respectively, of the related consolidated totals. Those statements were 
audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts 
included for those entities, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Chile. Those standards require 
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the fi nancial statements are free of 
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in 
the fi nancial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi cant estimates made 
by management, as well as evaluating the overall fi nancial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the 
report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the fi nancial statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the fi nancial position of Enersis S.A. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and 
the results of its operations and its cash fl ows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles in Chile.

As described in Notes 5 and 33 to these fi nancial statements, the Company’s subsidiaries in Brazil (Companhia de 
Electricidad do Rio de Janeiro and Companhia Energética do Ceará) have recognized in operating revenues ThCh$ 
94,486,197 related to regulated assets, in accordance with the regulations for such entities in Brazil. Similarly, amounts 
corresponding to unregulated energy contracted by generators and which will be transferred to the distribution companies 
is still pending from the Brazilian regulators and therefore has not been recorded in these fi nancial statements.

As described in Notes 23 and 33 to these fi nancial statements, the Company has valued investments in Argentina in 
accordance with Technical Bulletin Nº 64 issued by the Chilean Association of Accountants. On a consolidated basis, these 
investments refl ect total assets of 14 percent, total revenues of 27 percent, and total operating income of 21 percent, 
of the related consolidated totals. Due to the unstable political and economic situation in Argentina and considering 
the effects of the Public Emergency Law, the Company’s subsidiaries and equity method investments, are exposed to 
conditions which could affect the valuation of their assets, liabilities and equity and generate uncertainty as to their ability 
to pay obligations and continue operations. These fi nancial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company’s 
Argentine subsidiaries and equity method investments will continue as a going concern and do not refl ect the effects or 
eventual adjustments that may result from the resolution of these uncertainties.

Notes to the Audited Consolidated 
Financial Statements

Translation of fi nancial statements originally issued in Spanish – See Note 2

(Restated for general price-level changes and expressed in thousands of constant Chilean pesos as of December 31, 2001, except as stated)

Note 1 

Description of Business:

Enersis  S.A.  (the  “Company”)  is  registered  in  the  Securities  Register  under  No.  0175  and  is  regulated  by  the  Chilean 

Superintendency of Securities and Insurance (the “SVS”).  The Company issued publicly registered American Depositary Receipts 

in 1993 and 1996.  Enersis S.A. is a reporting company under the United States Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

The Company’s subsidiaries, Chilectra S.A., Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. (Río Maipo S.A.), Empresa Nacional de 

Electricidad S.A. (Endesa S.A.) and Aguas Cordillera S.A. are registered in the Securities Register under No.’s 0321, 0345, 0114, 

and 0369 respectively.

Note 2 

Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies:

(a)  General:

The consolidated fi nancial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted 

accounting principles in Chile and the regulations established by the SVS (collectively “Chilean GAAP”), and the specifi c 

corporate regulations of Law No. 18.046, related to the formation, registration and liquidation of Chilean corporations, 

among others. Certain amounts in the prior years’ fi nancial statements have been reclassifi ed to conform to the current 

year’s presentation.

The preparation of fi nancial statements in conformity with Chilean GAAP, requires management to make estimates and 

assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of 

the date of the fi nancial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. 

Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying fi nancial statements refl ect the consolidated results of operations of Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries.  

All signifi cant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Investments in companies in the 

development stage are accounted for using the equity method, except that income or losses are included directly in 

equity instead of being refl ected in the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The Company consolidates the 

fi nancial statements of companies in which it controls over 50% of the voting shares, which are the following:

(1)   Includes certain majority owned companies not presented herein.

(2)   The Company obtained shareholder agreements dated June 25, 1999, from Endesa International, the majority shareholder of 

these companies, giving the Company the right to elect a majority of the Board of Directors.  The Superintendency of Securities 
and Insurance were notifi ed on June 28, 1999.

(b)  Periods covered:

These fi nancial statements refl ect the Company’s fi nancial positions as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the results 

of its operations, the changes in its shareholders’ equity and its cash fl ows for the years ended December 31, 2000 

and 2001.

(c)  Constant currency restatement:

The cumulative infl ation rate in Chile as measured by the Chilean Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for the three-year period 

ended December 31, 2001 was approximately 10.66%.

Chilean GAAP requires that the fi nancial statements be restated to refl ect the full effects of loss in the purchasing power 

of the Chilean peso on the fi nancial position and results of operations of reporting entities.  The method described 

below is based on a model that enables calculation of net infl ation gains or losses caused by monetary assets and 

liabilities exposed to changes in the purchasing power of local currency. The model prescribes that the historical cost 

of all non-monetary accounts be restated for general price-level changes between the date of origin of each item and 

the year-end.

The fi nancial statements of the Company have been price-level restated in order to refl ect the effects of the changes 

in the purchasing power of the Chilean currency during each year. All non-monetary assets and liabilities, all equity 

accounts and income statement accounts have been restated to refl ect the changes in the CPI from the date they were 

acquired or incurred to year-end (see also Note 24).

The purchasing power gain or loss included in net income refl ects the effects of Chilean infl ation on the monetary assets 

and liabilities held by the Company.

The restatements were calculated using the offi cial consumer price index of the National Institute of Statistics and based 

on the “prior month rule,” in which the infl ation adjustments are based on the CPI at the close of the month preceding 

the close of the respective period or transaction.  This index is considered by the business community, the accounting 

profession and the Chilean government to be the index that most closely complies with the technical requirement to 

refl ect the variation in the general level of prices in Chile, and consequently it is widely used for fi nancial reporting 

purposes.

The values of the Chilean consumer price indices used to refl ect the effects of the changes in the purchasing power of 

the Chilean peso (“price-level restatement”) are as follows:

November 30, 2000 
November 30, 2001 

Index 

106.82 
110.10 

Change over 
Previous 
November 30,

4.7%
3.1%

By way of comparison, the actual values of the Chilean consumer price indices as of the balance sheet dates are 

as follows:

December 31, 2000 
December 31, 2001 

Index 

106.94 
109.76 

Change over 
previous 
December 31,

4.5%
2.6%

The above-mentioned price-level restatements do not purport to represent appraisal or replacement values and are only 

intended to restate all non-monetary fi nancial statement components in terms of local currency of a single purchasing 

power and to include in net income or loss for each year the gain or loss in purchasing power arising from the holding 

of monetary assets and liabilities exposed to the effects of infl ation.

Index-linked assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities that are denominated in index-linked units of account are stated at the year-end values of the 

respective units of account.  The principal index-linked unit used in Chile is the Unidad de Fomento (“UF”), which is 

adjusted daily to refl ect the changes in Chile’s CPI.  Certain of the Company’s investments are linked to the UF.  As the 

Company’s indexed liabilities exceed its indexed assets, the increase in the index results in a net loss on indexation.  

Values for the UF are as follows (historical Chilean pesos per UF):

(1)  Units of measurement used by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and Interamerican Development 
Bank (IDB) to express the weighted-average of multicurrency loan obligations granted using fi xed currency ratios to the US 
dollar, at a determined date.

(2)   Beginning on January 1, 2002, these currencies will be expressed in the Euro.
(3)   During the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, the Argentine peso has been pegged to the US dollar at a rate of 1 Argentine 
peso to 1 US dollar. In early December 2001, restrictions were put in place that prohibited cash withdrawals above a certain 
amount and foreign money transfers, with certain limited exceptions.  While the legal exchange rate remained at 1 peso to 1 US 
dollar, fi nancial institutions were allowed to conduct only limited activity due to these controls, and currency exchange activity 
was effectively halted except for personal transactions in small amounts. In January 2002, the Argentine government announced 
its intent to create a dual currency system with a “offi cial” fi xed exchange rate of 1.4 pesos to 1 US dollar for import, and export 
transactions and a “free” fl oating exchange rate for other transactions. On January 11, 2002, the exchange rate market holiday 
ended and closing new “free” fl oating exchange rates ranged from 1.6 to 1.7 pesos to 1 US dollar.  In accordance with SVS Circular 
No. 81 the conversion of Argentine subsidiary fi nancial statements refl ect the conversion of 1.7 pesos to 1 US dollar.

(e)   Time deposits and Marketable securities

Time deposits are presented at cost plus accrued interest and UF indexation adjustments, as applicable. Marketable 

securities consist of short-term highly liquid Chilean Government debt securities valued at cost plus accrued interest, 

which approximates market value.

(f)   Allowance for doubtful accounts:

Accounts receivable is classifi ed as current or long-term, depending on their collections terms.  Current and long-term 

trade accounts receivable, notes receivable and other receivables are presented net of allowances for doubtful accounts 

(see Note 5). Write-offs of uncollectible accounts amounted to       ThCh$ 10,291,653 and ThCh$ 6,155,429 for the years 

ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

(g)  

Inventories:

Inventory of materials in transit and operation and maintenance materials, are valued at the lower of price-level restated 

cost or net realizable value.  The cost of real estate projects under development, included in inventory, include the cost 

of land, demolition, urbanizing, payments to contractors and other direct costs.

1980. 

Property, plant and equipment are currently shown at contributed amounts or cost, as appropriate, plus price-level 

restatement.  The interest cost on debt directly obtained in the construction projects is capitalized during the period 

of construction.

In 1986, an increase based upon a technical appraisal of property, plant and equipment was recorded in the manner 

authorized by the SVS in Circulars No.’s 550 and 566 dated October 15 and December 16, 1985, respectively, and 

Communication No. 4790, dated December 11, 1985.

Property, plant and equipment received in leasing which qualify as capital leases, are accounted as acquisitions, recording 

the total of the lease obligation and interest on an accrual basis.

(i)   Depreciation

Depreciation expense is calculated on the revalued balances using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives 

of the assets.  Depreciation expense was ThCh$ 388,953,861 and ThCh$ 413,612,079 as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, 

respectively.  Depreciation expense of ThCh$ 375,916,142 and ThCh$ 401,771,524 were included in Costs of sales and 

ThCh$ 13,037,719 and ThCh$ 11,840,555 were included in Administrative and selling expenses, respectively.

(j)  

Power installations fi nanced by third parties:

As established by D.F.L. 1 of the Ministry of Mines dated September 13, 1982, power installations fi nanced by third parties 

are treated as reimbursable contributions. As such, the installations constructed using this mechanism form part of the 

Company’s plant and equipment.

Such installations made prior to D.F.L. 1 are deducted from Plant and equipment and their depreciation is charged to 

Power installations fi nanced by third parties.

(k)  

Investments in related companies:

a contra asset or liability has been recorded offsetting the effects of the deferred tax assets and liabilities not recorded 

prior to January 1, 2000.  Such contra asset or liability must be amortized to income over the estimated average reversal 

periods corresponding to the underlying temporary differences to which the deferred tax asset or liability relates calculated 

using the tax rates to be in effect at the time of reversal. For the years ended 

December 31, 2000 and 2001, the Company recorded current tax expense according to the tax laws and regulations

(1) In accordance with Decree Law No. 14 and Resolution No. 91 of the Council for Managing the Electric Energy Crisis (CGCEE), both 
dated December 21, 2001, and based on Resolution No. 31 of the National Agency of Electric Energy (ANEEL) dated January 24, 
2002, the Company’s distribution subsidiaries in Brasil have recongized as of December 31, 2001, a regulated asset, which will be 
recovered through extraordinary tarrifs in order to recover losses experienced during the period of energy rationing from June 1, 
2001 to December 31, 2001.

The regulated asset recorded by the Company’s distribution subsidiaries (Cerj and Coelce) was ThCh$ 94,486,000 as of December 
31, 2001, and is recorded as revenue during 2001.  This revenue represents lost revenues resulting from the Program of Emergency 
Reduction of Electric Energy Consumption (Program of Rationing). This regulated asset will be recovered through the increase of 
energy prices, over a period estimated to be three years. This amount is to be confi rmed by ANEEL.

In order to record this asset as revenue, the Company’s subsidiaries and other companies in the Energy Sector must agree to forfeit 
any future claim related to the events and regulations derived from the Program of Rationing and increases through the extraordinary 
tarrif.

Court : 21st Civil Court of Santiago

Process number : C-2437-1999

Cause  :  Lawsuit  in  summary  process  interposed  by  the  lawyer  Mr.  Eduardo  Rodriguez  Guarachi.  The  lawyer  has

Cause : On May 30, 2000, Pecom Energia S.A. and PCI Power Edesur Holding Limited (together, “Pérez Companc”) 

commenced an action against Endesa - Chile, Chilectra and Enersis before the Arbitration Court of the International 

Chamber  of Commerce, Paris, France. Pérez Companc has petitioned the court to either recognize its alleged right to 

nominate both a director and an alternate director in addition to the directors whom it already has the right to nominate; 

or to state that Pérez Companc and the Enersis group should each have an equal number of directors in Distrilec Inversora.

different external auditors. 

Amounts involved: Undetermined.

Hidroeléctrica el Chocón S.A.

Federal Public Revenues Administration – General Tax Services

The Federal Public Revenues Administration – General Tax Services (FPRA-GTS) notifi ed the Company for alleged 

tax evasion on revenues earned between tax year 1993 and 1994, due to deduction of certain start-up and fi nancing 

costs incurred by Hidroeléctrica el Chocón S.A. in the calculation of taxable income, which the FPRA-GTS considers to 

be capitalizable costs to be depreciated in accordance with the terms of the concession.  In addition, the FPRA-GTS 

claimed that the Company omitted making certain withholding taxes on payments made outside of the country for a 

bank loan obtained in 1994.  The Company had not made these withholding taxes as it considered that they related to 

foreign-source income not subject to taxes.

The corresponding amount of taxes on these revenues in dispute equals approximately US$ 9.7 million, which does not 

include accrued interest.  The Company is disputing these charges.

On December 28, 2000 the FPRA-GTS notifi ed the Company of Resolution No. 166/00 in the amount of US$ 1,754,938 

on withholding taxes for foreign-source incomes.  In addition it deemed that the Company should submit US$ 3,987,219 

for accrued interest up to December 20, 2000.  Finally, the FPRA-GTS assessed a penalty of US$ 1,228,457 for alleged 

infraction of Article 45 of Law 11,683.  Regarding the complaint against treatment of certain startup and fi nancing expenses, 

it prescribed on January 1, 2001.

On December 28, 2000 the Company was notifi ed of Resolution No. 204/00, which offi cially determined that the tax 

credits and debits for the period from December 1993 to July 1995 , equaled to US$ 794,095 for interest assessed 

as of December 11, 2000.  Additionally, it was resolved to fi ne the Company US$ 1,002,504 for alleged infraction of 

Article 45 of Law 11,683.  The FPRA-GTS considers the moment at which the Company determined that the taxable 

event was generated to be in error, therefore it deems Article 18 of Regulatory Decree of the Value Added Tax Law to 

be applicable.

The Company rejected the pretension of the FPRA-GTS to apply Article 18 of the Regulatory Decree of the Value Added 

Tax Law to the taxable events mentioned previously, before the date of publication of the regulation in the Offi cial 

Bulletin.  They invoked the inconstitutionality of the above-mentioned regulation and the application of decree 493/95, 

which condoned interest and fi nes for obligations or infractions overdue or committed as of July 31, 1995.  On February 

20, 2001, the Company fi led an appeal before the Fiscal Court of the Nation.

Royalties

On June 26, 2000, the Company was notifi ed of a complaint for interest charged for royalties allegedly paid outside the 

terms, initiated by the province of Neuquén before the Nation’s Court of Supreme Justice.  The complaint includes an 

initial amount of approximately US$ 1,574,000.

Additionally, on September 27, 2000 the Company was notifi ed regarding a new complaint from the province of Neuquén 

against the National State and hydroelectric generators of Comahue to obtain royalties charged on accumulated funds 

in the Sales Account.  The mentioned complaint does not state a precise amount or date as of which the sums claimed 

are considered as owing, but the action would seek to charge each generator 12% of the funds the plaintiff understands 

were contributed by them to the referred account.

Provincial Revenue Service of the Province of Buenos Aires 

On September 10, 2001, the Company received the notifi cation from the Provincial Revenue Services of the Province of 

Buenos Aires of the beginning of an offi cial determination for US$ 1,732,564 (amount that does not include interest or

fi nes), for taxes on gross income for the fi scal periods from February 1995 to December 1998.  The differences claimed 

originate in: a) lack of presentation of tax in the Province of Buenos Aires between February 1995 and June 

1996 for contracts signed by the Company and b) for the use of an estimated tax payment less than what the government 

deemed applicable.

Subsequently the Company resorted to a moratorium from the Province of Buenos Aires in which it input the differences 

claimed by the government for lack of tax revenue in that province for contracts signed by the Company in the sum of 

US$ 642,575, rejecting the differences claimed related to the applied estimated tax payment.

In  the  opinion  of  the  Company’s  Management  and  their  legal  counsel  the  complaints  made  by  the  government 

organizations mentioned above are not applicable, except for the concepts mentioned in the previous paragraph, 

therefore it is not probable that those matters will generate a signifi cant adverse effect on the Company’s shareholders’ 

equity situation and income as of December 31, 2001.

Edegel S.A.

National Superintendency of Tax Administration – Income Tax and General Sales Tax

As of December 31, 2001, the National Superintendency of Tax Administration (NSTA) has completed its compliance 

oversight of tax obligations mainly related to Income Tax and General Sales Tax for the Company’s tax years from 1995 

to 1999, and as a result of this oversight, NSTA gave notice in December 2001 through determination resolutions and 

fi nes amounting to US$ 86,601,000 (equivalent to ThCh$ 56,705,818) for Income Tax and approximately US$ 732,000 

(equivalent to ThCh$ 479,133) for General Sales Tax.  In this respect, management fi led an appeals claim against the 

mentioned resolutions on January 4 and 7, 2002.  Thus, on January 10, 2002 an arbitration process has begun against the 

State in which it submits to arbitration the controversy regarding noncompliance by the Peruvian State of its obligation with 

respect to the régime of legal stability signed by the company on November 29, 1995.  In the opinion of management 

and their legal advisors these arbitration processes will be resolved in favor of the Company.

On December 28, 1998, the government published Law 27,034, which in the Seventh Transitory and Final Disposition, 

effected 1999, states that “the amount of depreciation corresponding to the greater value attributed to a voluntary 

revaluation of assets due to an achieved reorganization is not deductible as an expense under Law 26283, regulatory 

and complementary standards”.  As indicated, in 1995 the Company signed a 10-year tax legal stability agreement, that 

permits it to maintain, among others, the Income Tax regime in force on the date of signing the agreement.  In 1995 the 

Company reevaluated its property, plant and equipment, which originated a revaluation surplus, as a consequence of 

the ruling made under Law 26283 and D.S. 120-94-EF.  As of the date of the signing of the agreement, the tax regime 

considered tax deductible the expense for depreciation of the greater amount due to revaluation made under Law 

26283 and D.S.120-94-EF.

Company management and their external legal counsel consider that the mentioned legal standard is unconstitutional, 

since it violates the principle of non-retroactivity of the law stated in Article 103 of the Constitution, which orders that 

“no law will have retroactive force or effect”.

Thus, if the NSTA should persist in relation to fi scal years subsequent to 2005, in the application of the mentioned 

standard to not acknowledge depreciation taken on revalued asset values, Edegel will have the possibility of formulating 

complaints based on the law.  Therefore the company has not determined any effect of the application of that legal 

standard in their fi nancial statements.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The sworn income tax declaration for 2000 tax year is pending review.  Any expense that exceeds the provisions made 

to cover tax obligations will be charged to income in year in which the fi nal adjustment is made.

ESSALUD

Lawsuits fi led by (ESSALUD) for payment of contributions under Law Decrees 22482, 19990 and 18846 amounting 

to US$ 4,282,000 (equivalent to ThCh$ 2,804,013).  In the opinion of management and their legal counsel, these 

proceedings will be resolved in favor of Edegal S.A..

Date of Chilectra S.A.’s Notifi cation :  June 17, 1998.

Note 33  

Differences between Chilean and United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles:

Chilean GAAP varies in certain important respects from U.S. GAAP. Such differences involve certain methods for measuring 

the amounts shown in the fi nancial statements.

Differences in Measurement Methods

The principal differences between Chilean GAAP and U.S. GAAP are described below together with an explanation, where 

appropriate, of the method used in the determination of the adjustments that affect net income and total shareholders’ 

equity.  References below to “SFAS” are to Statements of Financial Accounting Standards issued by the Financial Accounting 

Standards Board in the United States.

a)  

Infl ation accounting

The cumulative infl ation rate in Chile as measured by the Consumer Price Index for the three-years ended December 31, 

2001 was approximately 10.75%.  Pursuant to Chilean GAAP, the Company’s fi nancial statements recognize certain effects 

of infl ation.  The inclusion of price-level adjustments in the accompanying consolidated fi nancial statements is considered 

appropriate under the prolonged infl ationary conditions affecting the Chilean economy even though the cumulative 

infl ation rate for the last three years does not exceed 100%.  As allowed pursuant to Form 20-F the reconciliation included 

herein of consolidated net income, comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity, as determined in accordance with 

U.S. GAAP, excludes adjustments attributable to the effect of differences between the accounting for infl ation under 

Chilean GAAP versus U.S. GAAP.

b)  

Reversal of revaluation of property, plant and equipment

In accordance with standards issued by the SVS, certain property, plant and equipment are recorded in the fi nancial 

statements at amounts determined in accordance with a technical appraisal.  The difference between the carrying value 

and the revalued amount is included in shareholders’ equity, beginning in 1989, in “Other reserves”, and is subject to 

adjustments for price-level restatement and depreciation.  Revaluation of property, plant and equipment is an accounting 

principle not generally accepted under U.S. GAAP, therefore, the effects of the reversal of this revaluation, as well as of 

the related accumulated depreciation and depreciation expense are included in paragraph (aa) below.

c)   Depreciation of property, plant and equipment

Under Chilean GAAP, certain costs related to the cost of acquisition of Edesur S.A., at the time of the acquisitions in 

1992 and 1994 by Distrilec Inversora S.A., were charged to earnings as incurred.  Under U.S. GAAP, these costs would 

have been included in the purchase price and would have been allocated to the net assets acquired based upon fair 

values.  For purposes of the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP, these costs were considered to be a part of property, plant, 

and equipment, the primary assets of Edesur S.A.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As discussed in paragraph (i), under Chilean GAAP, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their carrying 

value, and the excess of the purchase price over the carrying value is recorded as goodwill. Under U.S. GAAP, assets 

acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the 

estimated fair value of the net identifi able assets and liabilities acquired is recorded as goodwill. As part of the purchase 

of the majority ownership interest in Endesa-Chile, under U.S. GAAP, the cost of the purchase price would have been 

allocated to the fair value of property, plant and equipment.

The effect on shareholders’ equity and net income for the years presented is included in paragraph (aa) below.

d)  

Intangibles

Under Chilean GAAP, the Company has recorded intangible assets relating to the transfer of revalued assets which 

originated in the predecessor company, “Compañía Chilena de Distribución Eléctrica S.A.” at the time of the Company’s 

formation.  Under U.S. GAAP, such intangible assets would not have been recorded as the assets would have been 

recorded at the Predecessor Company’s carrying values.  The effects of adjusting shareholders’ equity for the intangible 

asset net of accumulated amortization, inclusive of accumulated price-level restatement, and net income statement for 

the annual amortization expense are included in paragraph (aa) below.

e) 

 Deferred income taxes

Under Chilean GAAP, until December 31, 1999, deferred income taxes were recorded based on non-recurring timing 

differences between the recognition of income and expense items for fi nancial statement and tax purposes.  Accordingly, 

there was an orientation toward the income statement focusing on differences in the timing of recognition of revenues 

and expenses in pre-tax accounting income and taxable income.  Chilean GAAP also permitted not providing for deferred 

income taxes where a deferred tax asset or liability was either offsetting or not expected to be realized.  Starting January 

1, 2000, the Company recorded income taxes in accordance with Technical Bulletin No. 60 of the Chilean Association 

of Accountants, recognizing, using the liability method, the deferred tax effects of temporary differences between the 

fi nancial and tax values of assets and liabilities.  As a transitional provision, a contra (referred to as “complementary”) asset 

or liability has been recorded offsetting the effects of the deferred tax assets and liabilities not recorded prior to January 1, 

2000.  Such complementary asset or liability are being amortized to income over the estimated average reversal periods 

corresponding to the underlying temporary differences to which the deferred tax asset or liability relates.

Under U.S. GAAP, companies must account for deferred taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, which requires an asset 

and liability approach for fi nancial accounting and reporting of income taxes, under the following basic principles:

(i)   A deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences 

and tax loss carryforwards.

(ii)   The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on the provisions of the enacted tax law.  The effects of 

future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.

(iii)   The measurement of deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, if based on the weight of available 

evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Temporary differences are defi ned as any difference between the fi nancial reporting basis and the tax basis of an asset 

and liability that at some future date will reverse, thereby resulting in taxable income or expense.  Temporary differences 

ordinarily become taxable or deductible when the related asset is recovered or the related liability is settled.  A deferred tax 

liability or asset represents the amount of taxes payable or refundable in future years as a result of temporary differences 

at the end of the current year.

In 1999, the principal effect on the Company due to the difference in the accounting for deferred income taxes between 

Chilean and U.S. GAAP relates to the treatment of temporary differences arising from provisions, net operating loss-

carryforwards and accelerated depreciation methods.  In subsequent years the principal difference relates to the reversal 

of the complementary assets and liabilities recorded as a transitional provision for unrecorded deferred taxes as of 

January 1, 2000 and their corresponding amortization into income.  The effect of these differences on the net income 

and shareholders’ equity of the Company is included in paragraph (aa) below.

f)  

Staff severance indemnities

As described in Note 2 n), under the Company’s employment contracts, it has committed to provide a lump sum payment 

to each employee at the end of their employment, whether due to death, termination, resignation or retirement. Those 

obligations are calculated based on the present value of the liability determined at each year-end based on the current 

salary and average service life of each employee. The Company, and certain of its subsidiaries, used a real discount 

rate of 9.5% for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, and assumed an average service life which varies based 

upon years of service with the Company. The real annual discount rate does not include a projection of infl ation and, 

accordingly, future salary increases are also excluded from the calculation of the obligation, because all such future 

increases are expected to approximate the increase in infl ation over a long-term period. 

Under U.S. GAAP, this arrangement is considered to be a termination indemnity plan and should therefore be accounted 

for in accordance with SFAS No. 87 “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”.  The liability would be measured by projecting 

future expected severance payments using an assumed salary progression rate and discounting the resulting amounts 

to their present value.  In practice, the Company believes that the salary progression rate will not differ signifi cantly from 

the general infl ation rate. The application of U.S. GAAP would not have produced results materially different from the 

acceptable method under Chilean GAAP.

g)  

Pension and post-retirement benefi ts

The Company has obligations related to complementary pension plan benefi ts and other post-retirement benefi ts 

as stipulated in collective bargaining agreements.  Under U.S. GAAP, post-retirement employee benefi ts have been 

accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 87 and SFAS No. 106. The effects of accounting for post-retirement benefi ts 

under U.S. GAAP have been presented in paragraph (aa).

h)  

Investments in related companies

The Company’s equity share of the effect of the adjustments from Chilean GAAP to U.S. GAAP of equity accounted 

investees is included in paragraph (aa) below.  The principal U.S. GAAP adjustments affecting the Company’s equity 

investees are as follows:

(a)   The recording of pension benefi ts in accordance with SFAS No. 87.

(b)   The recording of deferred taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109.

(c)   Organizational costs deferred under Chilean GAAP that under U.S. GAAP should have been included in income.

(d)   For the year beginning January 1, 2001, the recording of derivative instruments in accordance with SFAS No. 133.

(e)   The deferred income tax effects of adjustments (a), (c) and (d).

i)  

Goodwill

(i)   Under Chilean GAAP, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their carrying value, and the excess of the 

purchased price over the carrying value are recorded as goodwill.  Circular No. 1358, dated December 3, 1997 issued by 

the SVS, extended the maximum amortization period of goodwill to 20 years from the previous 10 years.

Under U.S. GAAP, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values, and the excess of 

the purchased price over the estimated fair value of the net identifi able assets and liabilities acquired are recorded as 

 
 
 
 
 
 
goodwill. The Company amortizes goodwill on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging 

from 20 to 40 years. Goodwill acquired after June 30, 2001 is not amortized (see Note 33 II(o)).The effects of recording 

the different amortization periods are included in paragraph (aa) below.

(ii)  

In accordance with SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets 

to  Be  Disposed  Of”,  the  Company  evaluates  the  carrying  amount  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  and  certain 

intangibles, including attributable goodwill, in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash 

fl ows of the underlying business.  This standard requires that an impairment loss be recognized in the event that facts 

and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable, when compared to the 

estimated future undiscounted cash fl ows.  Impairment is recorded based on an estimate of future discounted cash 

fl ows, as compared to current carrying amounts.  For the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001 no additional 

amounts were recorded for impairment under U.S. GAAP.

(iii)   During the year ended December 31, 2001, a revision of U.S. GAAP goodwill was made to previous U.S. GAAP amounts 

included in the reconciliation of consolidated shareholders’ equity because U.S. GAAP goodwill was understated in the 

subsidiary Coelce by ThCh$50,077,237 during the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000. This revision does not 

have an impact on the reconciliation to consolidated net income for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000 as 

the accumulated differences of Chilean and U.S. GAAP goodwill amortization are appropriately stated. See paragraph 

(aa) below for the restated amounts.

The restatement of the reconciliation to conform shareholders’ equity amounts to U.S. GAAP is as follows:

1,098,387,406

j)  

Negative goodwill

Under Chilean GAAP, the excess of the carrying value of the assets assumed in a business combination over the purchase 

price is recorded as negative goodwill.  Circular No. 1358, dated December 3, 1997 issued by the SVS, extended the 

maximum amortization period of negative goodwill to 20 years from the previous 5 years.  Under U.S. GAAP, the fair 

values of the assets acquired less the fair values of the liabilities assumed in excess of over the purchase price is allocated 

proportionately to reduce the values assigned to non-current assets.  If the allocation reduces the non-current monetary 

assets to zero, the remainder of the excess is recorded as a deferred credit account called negative goodwill.  The effect 

of reducing depreciation expense, due to the proportionate allocation of the excess purchase price to property, plant 

and equipment, as compared to the amortization of negative goodwill under Chilean GAAP is included in paragraph 

(aa) below.

k)   Capitalized interest and exchange differences

In accordance with Chilean GAAP, the Company has capitalized both interest on debt directly related to property, plant 

and equipment under construction and fi nance costs corresponding to exchange differences generated by the loans 

associated with such assets. The capitalization of interest costs associated with projects under construction is optional 

when incurred on debt that is not directly related to such projects.

Under U.S. GAAP, the capitalization of interest on qualifying assets under construction is required, regardless of whether 

interest is associated with debt directly related to a project. In addition, under U.S. GAAP, foreign translation exchange 

differences may not be capitalized. The accounting differences between Chilean and U.S. GAAP for fi nancing costs and 

the related depreciation expense are included in the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (aa) below.

l)  

Accumulated defi cit during the development stage

Under Chilean GAAP, the losses incurred during the development stage of subsidiary companies is recorded directly 

in the parent company’s equity.  Under U.S. GAAP, such costs must be charged to income as incurred.  The effects are 

included in paragraph (aa) below.

m)   Minimum dividend

As required by the Chilean Companies Act, unless otherwise decided by the unanimous vote of the holders of issued 

and subscribed shares, the Company must distribute a cash dividend in an amount equal to at least 30% of its net 

income for each year as determined in accordance with Chilean GAAP, unless and except to the extent the Company has 

unabsorbed prior year losses. Since the payment of the 30% dividend out of each year’s income is required by Chilean 

law, an accrual has been made in the reconciliation in paragraph (aa) below to refl ect the unrecorded dividend liability, 

whenever and to the extent the recorded interim dividends do not reach the 30% minimum dividend.

n)   Capitalized general and administrative expenses

Until 1993, Endesa-Chile capitalized a portion of its administrative and selling expenses as part of the cost of construction 

in progress because a substantial portion of the efforts of management were involved in the administration of major 

projects.  Under U.S. GAAP, general and administrative expenses are charged to expense unless they can be directly 

identifi ed with the supervision of the constructions of specifi c projects.  The effects of eliminating capitalized general 

and administrative expenses and the related depreciation for U.S. GAAP purposes are shown below under paragraph 

(aa).

o)   Workers’ profi t sharing in Peru

Statutory worker’s profi t sharing in Peru is computed at 5% of the Peruvian subsidiary’s taxable income before workers’ 

profi t sharing.  Because workers’ profi t sharing is calculated on taxable income, under U.S. GAAP, differences between 

fi nancial reporting and taxable income should be considered in the calculation of workers’ profi t sharing for each period 

on a basis consistent with that used for income taxes.  The difference in accounting for Peruvian profi t sharing between 

Chilean and U.S. GAAP is included in the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (aa) below.

p)  

Involuntary employee termination benefi ts

Under Chilean GAAP, the Argentine subsidiaries, Central Costanera and Hidroelectricidad, recorded an accrual of certain 

involuntary employees termination benefi ts related to the restructuring plan announced in 1997.  Since that date employees 

have continued to be made redundant pursuant to this plan.  In accordance with U.S. GAAP, in order to recognize a 

liability at the balance sheet date for the cost to terminate employees involuntarily, there must be a plan that specifi cally 

includes notifi cation of such employees prior to the balance sheet date.  As of December 31, 2001, this requirement had 

not been met.  The effect of eliminating the accrued liability recognized is presented in paragraph (aa) below.

q)   Adjustment in selling price of investment

Under Chilean GAAP, pursuant to the share transaction contract entered into in 1995 between Endesa-Chile and Endesa 

Overseas Co. with Enersis International Limited, Chilectra S.A. and Chilectra International Limited, Endesa Argentina 

recognized income related to an adjustment of the share purchase price.  Under U.S. GAAP, the contingent price 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
adjustment would be considered a part of the purchase price, and would therefore be offset against the amount of 

goodwill that was originally determined.  The effects of the adjustments to conform to U.S. GAAP are included under 

paragraph (aa) below.

r)  

Elimination of capitalized legal reserve

Under Chilean GAAP, the Company capitalized interest to property, plant and equipment as a result of the creation of 

a legal reserve specifi cally permitted in Brazil for the electricity industry.  Under U.S. GAAP, interest capitalized must be 

based on actual interest incurred, and as such the effects of the elimination of the interest capitalized to property, plant 

and equipment and the effects on depreciation expense are included in paragraph (aa) below.

s)   Organizational and start-up costs

Certain costs related to the organization and creation of certain subsidiaries of the Company were deferred and capitalized 

under Chilean GAAP.  Under U.S. GAAP, such organizational and start-up costs may not be deferred and must be included 

in income as incurred.  The effects of this difference are included in paragraph (aa) below.

t)  

Translation of Financial Statements of Investments Outside of Chile

Under Chilean GAAP, in accordance with Technical Bulletin 64 (“BT 64”) the fi nancial statements of foreign subsidiaries 

that operate in countries exposed to signifi cant risks (“unstable” countries), and that are not considered to be an extension 

of the parent company’s operations, are remeasured into US dollars. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries in Argentina, 

Peru, Brazil, and Colombia all meet the criteria of foreign subsidiaries that operate in countries exposed to signifi cant 

risks under BT 64, and are remeasured into US dollars.  The Company has remeasured its foreign subsidiaries into US 

dollars under this requirement as follows:

•  

Monetary  assets  and  liabilities  are  translated  at  year-end  rates  of  exchange  between  the  US  dollar  and  the  local 

currency.

•  

All non-monetary assets and liabilities and shareholder’s equity are translated at historical rates of exchange between 

the US dollar and the local currency.

•  

•  

Income and expense accounts are translated at average rates of exchange between the US dollar and local currency.

The effects of any exchange rate fl uctuations between the local currency and the US dollar are included in the results 

of operations for the period.

Under BT 64, the investment in the foreign subsidiary is price-level restated, the effects of which are refl ected in income, 

while the effects of the foreign exchange gains or losses between the Chilean Peso and the US Dollar on the foreign 

investment measured in US dollars, are refl ected in equity in the account “Cumulative Translation Adjustment”.

The amount of foreign exchange gain included in income that is attributable to operations in unstable countries because 

these amounts have been remeasured into US dollars was ThCh$168,761,152, ThCh$43,038,825, and ThCh$56,094,130 

for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively (See note 23 (a)).

In the opinion of the Company, the foreign currency translation procedures described above are part of the comprehensive 

basis of preparation of price-level adjusted fi nancial statements required by Chilean GAAP.  Inclusion of infl ation and 

translation effects in the fi nancial statements is considered appropriate under the infl ationary conditions that have 

historically affected the Chilean economy, and accordingly, are not eliminated in the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP as 

permitted by Form 20-F.

Under Chilean GAAP, forward foreign exchange contracts gains and losses are recorded at the closing spot exchange rate 

and included in earnings as “Other non-operating income and expense”. The initial discount or premium is amortized 

over the life of the contract as interest expense.

Previously, under U.S. GAAP, contracts that were designated and effective as hedges of existing assets and liabilities 

were recorded in the same manner as described under Chilean GAAP above.  However, contracts not designated or 

effective as hedges were recorded at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses recognized in income. For contracts 

with fair values different from the values of the contracts at the closing spot exchange rate, a difference between U.S. 

and Chilean GAAP resulted. The effects of the difference were not considered material to the consolidated fi nancial 

statements and accordingly were not previously included in paragraph (aa) below.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 

No. 133 (SFAS No. 133), “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. In June 1999, the FASB issued 

Statement No. 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of 

FASB Statement No. 133”.  In June 2000, the FASB issued Statement 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments 

and Certain Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”.  SFAS No. 133, as amended, establishes 

accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments 

embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value.  

SFAS No. 133 requires that changes in the derivative instrument’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless 

specifi c hedge accounting criteria are met.  Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative instrument’s gains 

and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, to the extent effective, and requires 

that a company must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge 

accounting.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, as amended, on January 1, 2001.  SFAS No. 133 requires that as of the date of 

initial adoption, the difference between the market value of derivative instruments recorded on the balance sheet 

and the previous carrying amount of those derivatives be reported in net income or other comprehensive income, as 

appropriate, as the cumulative effect of a change in acounting principle in accordance with Accounting Principles Board 

Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes.”  Statement 133 cannot be applied retroactively. SFAS No. 133 must be applied 

to (a) derivative instruments and (b) certain embedded derivative instruments. As permitted under this standard, the 

Company has applied SFAS No. 133 to only those embedded instruments that were issued, acquired, or substantively 

modifi ed after January 1, 1999.

SFAS No. 133, in part, allows special hedge accounting for “fair value” and “cash fl ow” hedges. SFAS No. 133 provides 

that the gain or loss on a derivative instrument designated and qualifying as a “fair value” hedging instrument as well 

as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk be recognized currently in earnings 

in the same accounting period.  The accounting standard provides that the effective portion of the gain or loss on a 

derivative instrument designated and qualifying as a “cash fl ow” hedging instrument be reported as a component 

of other comprehensive income and be reclassifi ed into earnings in the same period or periods during which the 

hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument, if any, must 

be recognized currently in earnings. While the Company enters into derivatives for the purpose of mitigating its global 

fi nancial and commodity risks, these operations do not meet the documentation requirements to qualify for hedge 

accounting under U.S. GAAP.  Therefore changes in the respective fair values of all derivatives are reported in earnings 

when they occur.

 
 
 
 
 
Current Chilean accounting rules do not consider the existence of derivative instruments embedded in other contracts 

and therefore they are not refl ected in the fi nancial statements.  For U.S. GAAP purposes, certain implicit or explicit 

terms included in host contracts that affect some or all of the cash fl ows or the value of other exchanges required by 

the contract in a manner similar to a derivative instrument, must be separated from the host contract and accounted for 

at fair value.  The Company separately measures embedded derivatives as freestanding derivatives instruments at their 

estimated fair values recognizing changes in earnings when they occur.

Estimates of fair values of fi nancial instruments for which no quoted prices or secondary market exists have been made 

using valuation techniques such as forward pricing models, present value of estimated future cash fl ows, and other 

modeling techniques.  These estimates of fair value include assumptions made by the Company about market variables 

that may change in the future.  Changes in assumptions could have a signifi cant impact on the estimate of fair values 

disclosed. As a result such fair value amounts are subject to signifi cant volatility and are highly dependent on the quality 

of the assumptions used (see Note 33 II(j)).

The  effect  of  adopting  SFAS  No.  133  as  of  January  1,  2001,  resulted  in  a  cumulative  effect  on  net  income  of 

ThCh$20,402,957, which is presented net of deferred taxes of ThCh$45,219,341 and minority interest under the caption 

“Cumulative effect of change in accounting principles.”  The effects of the adjustment with respect to fi nancial derivatives, 

commodity derivatives, and embedded derivatives for the year ended December 31, 2001 is included in the net income 

and shareholders’ equity reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (aa) below.  For additional disclosures required 

under FAS No. 133 see Note 33 II(k).

v)  

Fair value of long-term debt assumed

As discussed in paragraph (i), under Chilean GAAP, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their carrying 

value, and the excess of the purchased price over the carrying value are recorded as goodwill. Under U.S. GAAP, assets 

acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values, and the excess of the purchased price over 

the estimated fair value of the net identifi able assets and liabilities acquired are recorded as goodwill. As part of the 

purchase of the majority ownership interest in Endesa-Chile, under U.S. GAAP, the cost of the purchase price would 

have been allocated to the fair value of long-term debt.  The effect on shareholders’ equity and net income for the years 

presented is included in paragraph (aa) below.

w)   Sale of subsidiaries

Corresponds to the reversal of the December 31, 1999 accumulated adjustments to U.S. GAAP which under U.S. GAAP 

would have been included in the determination of any gain or loss on sale made in connection with the subsidiaries 

Compañía Nacional de Transmisión Eléctrica S.A. (Transelec), Aguas Cordillera S.A., and Aguas Puerto S.A., as these 

subsidiaries were sold during 2000.

x)   Deferred income

During 2000, fi ber optic cable was contributed to the Company in return for granting the contributing company access 

to the fi ber optic network after installation in the Company´s electricity distribution system.  Under Chilean GAAP, the 

contributed assets were recorded at their fair market value, with a corresponding credit recognized as income in 2000.  

Under U.S. GAAP and in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, 

“Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB No. 101”), the fair market value of the assets to be used in the 

future is considered an upfront payment which is not the result of the culmination of a separate earning process, and 

therefore, should be deferred and recognized in income over the estimated useful life of the fi ber optic assets.  The effect 

on shareholders’ equity and net income for the years presented is included in (aa) below.

(y)   Regulated assets and deferred costs

The electricity sector in Chile and other countries of operation in Latin America is regulated pursuant to the Chilean and 

other country electricity laws.  Most of the Company’s sales are subject to node price regulation, which is designed to 

ensure an adequate supply of energy at reasonabe, determined prices, which considers a variety of factors.  The marginal 

cost pricing model is not solely based upon costs incurred by the Company, and as a result, the requirements of U.S. 

GAAP under SFAS No. 71, “Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation,” related to a businesses whose 

rates are regulated are not applicable to the Company’s fi nancial statements, except for the Company’s operations in 

Brazil as described below.

As a result of changes in Brazilian Electricity Laws and Regulations, the Company’s distribution subsidiaries in Brazil, 

Companhia de Electricidad do Rio de Janiero (Cerj) and Companhia Energética do Ceará (Coelce), are subject to the 

provisions of SFAS No. 71 beginning on January 1, 2001.  With the new regulations issued by the National Agency of 

Electric Energy (ANEEL), the rate-setting structure in Brazil is now designed to provide recovery for allowable costs 

incurred, which will be recovered through future increases in energy tariffs in order to recover losses experienced during 

the period of Brazilian Federal Government mandated energy rationing from June 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001.  The 

Company estimates costs will be recovered over a period estimated to be three years (as described in Note 5).

Accordingly, the Company capitalizes incurred costs as deferred regulatory assets when there is a probable expectation 

that future revenue equal to the costs incurred will be billed and collected as a direct result of the inclusion of the costs 

in an increased rate set by the regulator.  The deferred regulatory asset is eliminated when the Company collects the 

related costs through billings to customers.  ANEEL performs a rate review on an annual basis.  If ANEEL excludes all or 

part of a cost from recovery, that portion of the deferred regulatory asset is impaired and is accordingly reduced to the 

extent of the excluded cost.  The Company has recorded deferred regulatory assets, which it expects to pass on to its 

customers in accordance with and subject to regulatory provisions.

The regulations also included certain VPA costs, which are certain costs that each distribution company is permitted to 

defer and pass on to their customers using future rate adjustments.  VPA costs are limited by concession contracts to the 

cost of purchased power and certain other costs and taxes.  Due to uncertainty in the Brazilian economy, ANEEL delayed 

the approval of such VPA rate increases.  An Executive Order in October 2001 created a tracking account mechanism, in 

order to calculate the variation in the VPA costs for future rate adjustment calculation purposes.  The Company has not 

recognized any regulatory assets for VPA costs incurred prior to 2001, because costs incurred prior to January 1, 2001, 

are not recoverable through the tracking account.

Under Chilean GAAP, the Company recognized revenue and deferred costs related to the regulated assets.  Under U.S. 

GAAP, in accordance with Emerging Issues Taskforce (EITF) No. 92-7, “Accounting by Rate Regualted Utilities for the Effects 

of Certain Alternate Revenue Programs,” revenue amounts not expected to be collected within 24 months, have been 

deferred.  The effect of deferring revenues expected to be collected after two years is included in (aa) below.

(z)   Reorganization of subsidiaries

Corresponds to the reorganization of the Company’s subsidiaries Central Costanera and Central Buenos Aires (CBA) 

during 2001, in which Central Costanera acquired the minority interest in CBA from third parties and exchanged shares 

with Endesa Argentina.  Under Chilean GAAP, the Company recorded the transactions under the pooling method, using 

the book values of the net assets acquired under merger accounting. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Under U.S. GAAP the exchange of shares between entities under common control is recorded at book values. To the 

extent that shares in CBA were acquired from third parties, the identifi able assets acquired and liabilities assumed are 

recorded at fair value using purchase accounting together with the shares issued by the subsidiary Central Costanera. 

The effect on shareholders’ equity for the years presented is included in (aa) below.

d)   Acquisitions:

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company did not have signifi cant acquisitions.

In December 2000, the Company acquired an additional ownership interest of 18.5% in Companhia de Electricidade do 

Río de Janerio (Cerj) under the purchase method for a total purchase price of US$136,092,000 in cash.  This and other 

transactions increased the Company’s direct and indirect ownership from 37.41% to 57.38%.  As described in Note 2 (a), 

Cerj is consolidated with the Company’s results beginning in January 1, 1999, thus proforma results are not required. 

Under Chile GAAP, negative goodwill of ThCh$2,075,116 has been recorded and is being amortized on a straight-line 

basis over 20 years. Under U.S. GAAP, the negative goodwill of ThCh$2,075,116 has been allocated to tangible assets 

and is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over 25 years.

In November 2000, the Company entered into a series of transactions to acquire an additional ownership interest of 

25.4% in Chilectra and 14.7% of Rio Maipo under the purchase method through a public offering of shares (Oferta Pública 

de Acciones) for a total purchase price of approximately US$378,377,000 and US$23,713,000, respectively, in cash.  This 

increased the Company’s direct and indirect ownerships from 72.56% and 83.74% to 97.97% and 98.40%, respectively.  

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Proforma results for the additions to Chilectra and Rio Maipo are not disclosed due to the immateriality of these step 

purchases.  Under Chile GAAP, goodwill of ThCh$99,823,214 and ThCh$10,284.020 has been recorded and is being 

amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Under U.S. GAAP goodwill of ThCh$99,823,214 and ThCh$10,284,020, 

respectively, has been recorded and is being amortized on a straight-line basis ranging from 20 to 30 years.

In  May  1999,  the  Company  entered  into  a  series  of  transactions  to  acquire  an  additional  ownership  interest  of 

34.7% in Endesa-Chile through a public offering of shares (Oferta Pública de Acciones) for a total purchase price of 

ThCh$1,030,014,725 (historic pesos) in cash.  This increased the Company’s ownership from approximately 25.3% to 

approximately 60.0%.  Under Chile GAAP, goodwill of ThCh$642,296,073 has been recorded and is being amortized 

on a straight-line basis over 20 years. Under U.S. GAAP, goodwill of ThCh$750,060,726 has been recorded and is being 

amortized on a straight-line basis over 20 years.

In  April  1999,  through  its  subsidiary  Aguas  Puerto  S.A.,  the  Company  purchased  a  40.4%  interest  in  Esval  S.A.  for 

approximately ThCh$72,422,378 in cash.  Goodwill of ThCh$20,034,684 has been recorded and is being amortized on 

a straight-line basis over 20 years.

For acquisitions accounted for using the purchase method, assets and liabilities have been consolidated as of the purchase 

date and earnings from the acquisitions have been included in consolidated earnings of the Company subsequent to 

the purchase date.

Concentration of risk:

The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any unusual credit risk from any single fi nancial institution. The 

Company’s debtors are dependent on the economy in Latin America, which could make them vulnerable to downturns 

in the economic activity in the countries in which the Company operates. 

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of revenues for the years ending December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001.

Disclosures about fair value of fi nancial instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of fi nancial instruments as 

of December 31, 2000 and 2001 for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(cid:127)  

Cash

The fair value of the Company’s cash is equal to its carrying value.

(cid:127)  

Time deposits

The fair value of time deposits approximates carrying value due to the relatively short-term nature.

(cid:127)   Marketable securities

The fair value of marketable securities is based on quoted market prices of the common stock held and approximates 

carrying value.

(cid:127)  

Long-term accounts receivable

The fair value of long-term accounts receivable was estimated using the interest rates that are currently offered for loans 

with similar terms and remaining maturities.

(cid:127)  

Long-term debt

The fair value of long-term debt was based on rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and 

remaining maturities.

•  

Derivative instruments

Estimates of fair values of derivative instruments for which no quoted prices or secondary market exists have been 

made using valuation techniques such as forward pricing models, present value of estimated future cash fl ows, and 

other modeling techniques.  These estimates of fair value include assumptions made by the Company about market 

variables that may change in the future.  Changes in assumptions could have a signifi cant impact on the estimate of 

fair values disclosed.  As a result such fair value amounts are subject to signifi cant volatility and are highly dependent 

on the quality of the assumptions used.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s fi nancial instruments compared to Chilean GAAP carrying amounts are

k)   Derivative instruments

The Company is exposed to the impact of market fl uctuations in the price of electricity, primary materials such as natural 

gas, petroleum, coal, and other energy-related products, interest rates, and foreign exchange rates.  The Company 

employs policies and procedures to manage its risks associated with these market fl uctuations on a global basis through 

strategic contract selection, fi xed-rate and variable-rate portfolio targets, net investment hedges, and fi nancial derivatives.  

All derivatives not qualifying for the normal purchase and sales exemption under SFAS No. 133 are recorded at their 

fair value.  On the date that swaps, futures, forwards or option contracts are entered into, the Company designates the 

derivative as either a normal purchase or sale contract or leaves the derivative undesignated and marks it to market, 

with the exception of net investment hedges.  The Company does not have the appropriate documentation in place 

to designate contracts as hedges of a forecasted transaction or future cash fl ows (cash fl ow hedge) or as a hedge of a 

recognized asset, liability or fi rm commitment (fair value hedge).

The Company has classifi ed their derivatives into the following general categories:  commodity derivatives, embedded 

derivatives, and fi nancial derivatives. Certain energy and other contracts for the Company’s operations in Chile are 

denominated in the US dollar.  According to SFAS No. 133, an embedded foreign currency derivative should be separated 

from the host contract because none of the applicable exclusions are met.  For purposes of evaluating the functional 

currency of the Company’s subsidiaries in Argentina, Peru, Brazil, and Colombia, the Company applied BT 64, consistent 

with the methodology described in paragraph (u), thus the functional currency of these subsidiaries was the US dollar 

as these subsidiaries were remeasured into US dollars because foreign subsidiaries operate in countries exposed to 

signifi cant risks as determined under BT 64.

The following is a summary of the Company’s adjustment to fair values for all identifi ed derivative contracts at the date 

of implementation of SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2001 and as of the year-ended December 31, 2001.

Commodity derivatives

Certain of the Company’s generation and distribution commodity contracts meet the defi nition of a derivative under 

SFAS No. 133 and are required to be accounted for at fair value.  These are contracts that (i) have an underlying, which 

is the market price of power at the delivery location and a notional amount specifi ed in the contract; (ii) have no initial 

payment on entering into the contract; and (iii) do not have a net settlement provision but has the characteristic of 

net settlement because power is readily convertible to cash, as it is both fungible and actively traded in the country of 

generation or country of distribution.

The Company’s commodity contracts that are requirements contracts were concluded to not have notional amounts, 

if they only had maximum amounts or no specifi ed amounts, and did not include an implicit minimum amount in a 

settlement or a default clause.  A requirements contract allows the purchaser to use as many units of power as required 

to satisfy its actual needs for power during the period of the contract, and the party is not permitted to buy more than 

its actual needs.

The Company concluded that all of its power is readily convertible to cash as energy is actively traded, or the Company 

has access, to markets where energy is actively traded.  However, only certain participants have access to the energy 

markets, thus determination as to whether energy could be considered readily convertible to cash was analyzed on a 

case by case basis.  Currently, Chilean distributors do not have access to the Chilean spot market, however this could 

change in the future if energy regulations are changed.  The Company has also concluded that multiple-delivery long-

term power contracts meet the net settlement characteristic.  Multiple-delivery long-term power contracts are readily 

convertible to cash because the Company operates in countries with active spot markets, that although they contain 

varying levels of liquidity, can rapidly absorb the contract’s quantities at each delivery date without signifi cantly affecting 

the price, and thus meet the defi nition of net settlement.

k)   Derivative instruments, continued:

Derivative contracts were evaluated for qualifi cation under the normal purchase and sale exception, if it was probable 

the contracts would result in physical delivery, and if the contract did not contain a price that was tied to an unrelated 

underlying, such as, the U.S. Price for Finished Products (PPI) index, or if the price of the contract is denominated in a 

currency other than the functional currency of one of the parties to the contract and the commodity is not internationally 

denominated in that currency.  The Company does not consider the local country or U.S. Consumer or Purchase Price 

Indexes to be clearly and closely related to the energy purchased or sold because these indices measure the level of 

price changes of certain items in the economy and are not a direct factor in the production of energy.

The Company’s Argentine generation entities have access to the Brazilian energy market through an interconnection 

system between the two markets.  In order to calculate the fair values of the purchase and sale contracts related to the 

energy to be sold in the Brazilian market, the Argentine market prices were used.  The Company believes this is the best 

measure for fair value, because in the event that the Brazilian market prices are below the cost to produce the energy 

in Argentina, the Company will sell the energy in Argentina and purchase the energy from the spot market in Brazil.  

Additionally, the interconnection line was established to sell energy generated in Argentina in the Brazilian market, as 

the Brazilian energy market heavily relies on hydro-electric generation and has historically had signifi cant problems with 

meeting its energy needs economically due to lack of rainfall.  

Because both the purchases and sales interconnection contracts are for periods up to 20 years in complex markets, 

where no similar term forward market information is available, the Company has estimated such values based on the 

best information available, including using modeling and other valuation techniques. The Company has recorded the 

best estimate of fair value, however with different assumptions such as interest rates, infl ation rates, exchange rates, 

electricity rates, and increases in cost trends, materially different fair values could result.  As a result such estimates

are highly volatile and dependent upon the assumptions used.  The assumption to measure the fair value of these 

interconnection related contracts using the Argentine market prices has a signifi cant effect on the Company’s net income 

and shareholder’s equity.  

If Brazilian market prices had been used instead of Argentine prices estimated fair values of the related energy contracts 

a signifi cantly different fair value would result.  Had the Company used Brazilian price curves in the valuation, the 

Company estimates on a preliminary basis that net fair value of such contracts would result in a loss of approximately 

ThCh$196,512,379 and ThCh$285,827,609 as of January 1, 2001 and December 31, 2001, respectively.  

Similarly, the Argentine energy market does not have long-term quoted foreign energy prices. The Company does not 

have concessions to sell the Argentine generated energy in the Brazilian market to any parties other than those currently 

contracted. Therefore the Company views the interconnection as an extension of the Argentine market and as a more 

appropriate measure of the fair value of energy.  The Company has estimated a range of fair values, which result in gains 

of between ThCh$106,780,682 and ThCh$698,822,690 as of January 1, 2001 and gains of between ThCh$105,399,643 

and ThCh$785,224,431 as of December 31, 2001.  Based on the current available information, the Company has recorded 

the low end of this range as its best estimate of interconnection contract fair values.  Such values are included in the 

reconciliation to U.S. GAAP in paragraph (aa).

k)   Derivative instruments, continued:

Embedded Derivative Contracts

The Company enters into certain contracts that have embedded features that are not clearly and closely related to the 

host contract.  As specifi ed in SFAS No. 133, bifurcation analysis focuses on whether the economic characteristics and 

risks of the embedded derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract.  

In certain identifi ed contracts, the host service contract and the embedded feature are not indexed to the same underlying 

and changes in the price or value of service will not always correspond to changes in the price of the commodity to which 

the contract is indexed. U.S. GAAP requires embedded features to be measured at fair value as freestanding instruments.  

Unless the embedded contracts are remeasured at fair value under otherwise applicable GAAP, the embedded feature 

must be valued at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur.

Embedded foreign currency derivative instruments are not separated from the host contract and considered a derivative 

instrument if the host contract is not a fi nancial instrument and it requires payments denominated in either: (1) the 

functional currency of any substantial party to the contract, (2) the local currency of any substantial party to the contract, 

(3) the currency used because the primary economic environment is highly infl ationary, or (4) the currency in which 

the good or service is routinely denominated in international commerce.

Financial Derivatives

Changes in interest rates expose the Company to risk as a result of its portfolio of fi xed-rate and variable-rate debt.  The 

Company manages interest rate risk exposure on a global basis by limiting its variable-rate and fi xed-rate exposures 

to certain variable/fi xed mixes set by policy.  The Company manages interest rate risk through the use of interest rate 

swaps and collars and cross-currency swaps. The Company does not enter into fi nancial instruments for trading or 

speculative purposes.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk arising from long-term debt denominated in foreign currencies, the 

majority of which is the US dollar.  This risk is mitigated, as a substantial portion of the Company’s revenues are either 

directly or indirectly linked to the US dollar.  Additionally, the Company records the foreign exchange gains and losses on 

 
 
 
 
 
 
liabilities related to net investments in foreign countries which are denominated in the same currency as the functional 

currency of those foreign investments.  Such unrealized gains and losses are included in the cumulative translation 

adjustment account in shareholders’ equity, and in this way act as a net investment hedge of the exchange risk affecting 

the investments (see Note 11 (c) and Note 22 (f) for further detail).  The Company also uses short duration forward 

foreign currency contracts and swaps, and cross-currency swaps, where possible, to manage its risk related to foreign 

currency fl uctuations.

l)  

Reclassifi cations to U.S. GAAP

Certain reclassifi cations would be made to the Chilean GAAP income statement in order to present Chilean GAAP 

amounts in accordance with presentation requirements under U.S. GAAP.  Amortization of negative goodwill, amortization 

of goodwill, and certain other non-operating income and expense, would be included in operating income.  Recoverable 

taxes included in other non-operating revenues would be recorded as part of income taxes under U.S. GAAP.  The gain 

from the repurchase of Yankee bonds by Enersis S.A. and Endesa Chile S.A. included in non-operating income under 

Chilean GAAP would be presented as an extraordinary gain according to U.S. GAAP. Equity participation in income or 

losses of related companies included in non-operating income would be presented after income taxes and minority 

interest in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The following reclassifi cations included in the column labeled “Reclassifi cations” 

disclose amounts using a U.S. GAAP presentation, although the amounts displayed have been determined in accordance 

with Chilean GAAP:

Certain reclassifi cations would be made to the Chilean GAAP balance sheet in order to present Chilean GAAP amounts 

in accordance with presentation requirements under U.S. GAAP.  Deferred taxes from depreciation differences that 

are recorded as short-term under Chilean GAAP would be recorded as long-term under U.S. GAAP.  Debt discounts 

are included in other assets in Chilean GAAP while the discount would be offset against the debt under U.S. GAAP.  

The amounts receivable and payable related to fi nancial derivatives have been recorded in the balance sheet at their 

gross amounts, whereas, these amounts would have been recorded at their net amounts by fi nancial institution under 

U.S. GAAP, provided the contracts have net settlement provisions.  Real estate properties under development and 

construction-in-progress are included in current assets as inventory in Chilean GAAP and under U.S. GAAP such assets 

would have been included as property, plant and equipment. Additionally, the regulated asset recorded during 2001 by 

Coelce and Cerj, Brazilian subsidiaries, has been partially recorded in trade receivables and an additonal component was 

recorded in current assets by Coelce under Chilean GAAP. However, under U.S. GAAP the presentation of these regulated 

assets should be classifi ed as non-current assets as the recovery of these assets is not expected in the short term. These 

reclassifi cations exclude consolidation of development stage companies, the effect of which is immaterial.

The effect of the following reclassifi cations included in the column labeled “Reclassifi cations” discloses amounts using a 

U.S. GAAP presentation although the amounts displayed have been determined in accordance with Chilean GAAP:

m)   Employee Benefi t Plans

Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries sponsor various benefi t plans for its current and retired employees.  A description of 

such benefi ts follows:

Severance indemnities

The provision for severance indemnities, included in the account “Accrued expenses” short and long-term is calculated 

in accordance with the policy set forth in Note 2 (n), using the current salary levels of all employees covered under the 

severance indemnities agreement, an assumed discount rate of 9.5% for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 

2001, and an estimated average service period based on the years of services for the Company.

Benefi ts for Retired Personnel

Other benefi ts provided to certain retired personnel of Enersis include electrical service rate subsidies, additional medical 

insurance and additional post-retirement benefi ts.  Descriptions of these benefi ts for retired personnel are as follows:

i) 

Electrical rate service

This benefi t is extended only to certain retired personnel of Enersis.  These electric rate subsidies result in the eligible 

retired employees paying a percentage of their total monthly electricity costs, with Enersis paying the difference.

ii)  Medical benefi ts

This benefi t provides supplementary health insurance, which covers a portion of health benefi ts not covered under 

the institutional health benefi ts maintained by employees of Enersis. This benefi t expires at the time of death of the 

pensioner.

iii) 

Supplementary pension benefi ts

Eligible employees are able to receive a monthly amount designed to cover a portion of the difference between their 

salary at the point of retirement and the theoretical pension that would have been received had the employee reached 

the legal retirement age of the Institución de Previsión Social (Institute of Social Welfare).  This benefi t expires upon 

the death of the pensioner for the Enersis employee, however, continues to cover the surviving-spouse in the case of 

employees of the subsidiary Endesa-Chile.

iv)   Worker’s compensation benefi ts

Employees that were entitled to Worker’s compensation insurance in prior years for work related accidents receive 

benefi ts from the Company as such insurance has expired. This benefi t continues at the time of death of the pensioner, 

to cover the surviving-spouse.

The Company has recognized liabilities related to complementary pension plan benefi ts and other post-retirement 

benefi ts as stipulated in collective bargaining agreements. Under U.S. GAAP, post-retirement employee benefi ts have 

been accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 87 and SFAS No. 106, with inclusion of prior-period amounts in current 

years income as the amounts are not considered signifi cant to the overall fi nancial statement presentation.  The effects of 

accounting for post-retirement benefi ts under U.S. GAAP have been presented in paragraph (aa), above.  The following 

data are presented under U.S. GAAP for Company’s post-retirement benefi t plans.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company reports a measure of all changes in shareholders’ equity that result from 

transactions and other economic events of the period other than transactions with owners (“comprehensive income”).  

Comprehensive income is the total of net income and other non-owner equity transactions that result in changes in 

net shareholders’ equity.

Recent accounting pronouncements

On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 

No. 141”) and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). SFAS No. 141 requires all business 

combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. Poolings initiated prior June 

30, 2001 are grandfathered. SFAS No. 142 replaces the requirements to amortize intangible assets with indefi nite lives 

and goodwill with a requirement for an impairment test. SFAS No. 142 also requires an evaluation of intangible assets 

and their useful lives and a transitional impairment test for goodwill and certain intangible assets. After transition, the 

impairment tests are to be performed annually. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 142 on January 1, 2002. 

Under SFAS No. 142, the Company will cease to amortize existing goodwill related to previous acquisitions beginning on 

January 1, 2002.  The effect of not amortizing intangible assets with indefi nite lives and goodwill will increase annual net 

income determined under U.S. GAAP by approximately ThCh$79,056,391, notwithstanding any future transactions.  The 

Company is still assessing the extent of impairment, if any, of intangible assets with indefi nite lives and goodwill, that 

may need to be recorded as a result of the adoption of these new accounting standards.

In June 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, 

“Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS No. 143”). This standard requires that obligations associated with 

the retirement of tangible long-lived assets be recorded as liabilities when those obligations are incurred, with the amount 

of the liability initially measured at fair value. Upon initially recognizing a liability for an asset retirement obligation, an 

entity must capitalize the cost by recognizing an increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Over

time, this liability is accreted to its present value, and the capitalized cost is depreciated over the useful life of the related 

asset. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or 

loss upon settlement. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fi nancial statements issued for fi scal years beginning after June 15, 

2002. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 143 effective January 1, 2003. The Company does not expect that the adoption 

of this statement will have a material impact on their results of operations, fi nancial position or cash fl ows.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment 

or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”). SFAS 144 supersedes FASB Statement No. 121, “Accounting for the 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting 

provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment 

of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” for the disposal of a 

segment of a business (as previously defi ned in that opinion). SFAS 144 requires that one accounting model be used 

for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held and used or newly acquired, and broadens the 

presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions than were included under the previous 

standards. For the Company and other calendar-year companies, SFAS No. 144 is effective beginning January 1, 2002. 

The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 144 to have a material impact on its results of operations, fi nancial 

position or cash fl ows. 

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements 

No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections”. This statement rescinds FASB 

Statement No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt”, and an amendment of that Statement, 

Statement No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements”. This Statement also amends 

other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their 

applicability under changed conditions. The provisions of SFAS 145 related to the rescission of SFAS No. 4 shall be applied 

in fi scal years beginning after May 15, 2002, although early application is encouraged.  Any gain or loss on extinguishment 

of debt that was classifi ed as an extraordinary item in prior periods presented that does not meet the criteria in APB 

Opinion 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and 

Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions” for classifi cation as an extraordinary item 

shall be reclassifi ed. Debt extinguishments used as part of an entity’s risk management strategy represent one example 

of debt extinguishments that do not meet the criteria for classifi cation as extraordinary items in APB Opinion No. 30. 

The Company will apply SFAS 145 beginning January 1, 2002.  The Company’s application of SFAS 145 will require the 

reclassifi cation of the extraordinary gain on early retirement of Yankee bonds of ThCh$23,410,527 (as presented in Note 

33 l(l) to other non-operating income, so upon application there will be no presentational difference between Chile and 

U.S. GAAP for the early extinguishment of debt.

(p)   Economic situation in Argentina

Due to the changes in the economic situation in Argentina, the Argentine Government decided to amend the Convertibility 

Law which had been in force since March 1991, and adopted certain measures the main effects of which are the following: 

the devaluation of the Argentine peso with respect to the US dollar, the pesifi cation of certain assets and liabilities 

in foreign currency held in the country, the pesifi cation of all private contracts entered into as of January 6, 2002, 

the introduction of restrictions on the withdrawal of funds deposited at fi nancial institutions, the need to obtain prior 

authorization by the Argentine Central Bank (BCRA) to make transfers abroad in respect of fi nancial loan servicing 

payments and dividends.

 
 
 
On a consolidated basis, these investments refl ect total assets of 14 percent, total revenues of 27 percent, and total 

operating income of 21 percent, of the related consolidated totals as of December 31, 2001.  As described in Notes 23 

and 31 to these fi nancial statements, the Company has valued investments in Argentina in accordance with Technical 

Bulletin No. 64 issued by the Chilean Association of Accountants.  The Argentine Government is still analyzing the 

possible implementation of additional policies or modifi cations to those already approved. It is not possible to predict 

the future evolution of the situation in the country, nor, accordingly, the impact that this uncertainty may have on the 

consolidated fi nancial statements of the Company due to the investments held in companies present in Argentina. The 

consolidated fi nancial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company’s Argentine subisidiaries and equity 

method investments will continue as a going concern and do not include any further adjustments that might result from 

Note 34 

the outcome of these uncertainties.

Subsequent events:

a.  

Situation in Argentina

On January 6, 2002, the Congress of the Republic of Argentina approved Law No. 25,561 entitled Public Emergency 

and Reform of the Exchange Regime.  The law established:  the end of convertibility at parity of the Argentine peso 1 

to 1 with the US dollar, fees for public services are converted into Argentine pesos at a rate of exchange of 1 to 1, the 

indexation clauses based on price indices of other countries are no longer in effect, and the Argentine Government’s 

Executive  is authorized to renegotiate concession contracts with public service companies.

By function of the powers conferred to the Executive by this law, an offi cial exchange rate was established at $1.40 

Argentine pesos per US dollar for settled foreign commerce transactions and another rate that is “free” from restriction 

for all other transactions. The “free” fl oating exchange rate of the US dollar on the day the exchange market opened 

was $1.70 per US dollar.  (See Note 2(d)(3)).

Subsequently, the Executive Branch agreed to convert all assets and liabilities using a conversion rate into Argentine 

pesos of rate of exchange of 1 to 1, except for deposits maintained in the fi nanial system.

On February 12, 2002, the Executive issued Decree No. 293, which granted authority to the Minister of Economics to 

renegotiate concession contracts with public service companies.  Within the public services included in the renegotiation 

of the contracts, the Decree specifi cally mentions the distribution and commercialization of electric energy.

Based on these factors described above and before negotiations have started with the Argentine government, the 

Company estimates that net cash fl ows (operating cash fl ows less fi nancing fl ows) for 2002 will decrease by approximately 

US$ 112,000,000, from the total of its Latin American operations which represents an 18.7% of total cash fl ows during 

2001.

The Company plans to compensate for this reduction in net cash fl ows, during the renegotiation of concession contracts 

with the Argentine Government.  The economic criteria of these negotiations have been defi ned in the decree, and 

it is the Company’s belief that it will be possible to recouperate the diminished net cash fl ows in a reasonable period 

of time.

Despite the diffi cult economic postion present in Argentina as described above during the months of January and 

February 2002, the Company’s subsidiaries and affi liates in Argentina have continued to operate regularly in the electric 

sector and continued to service all client contractual demands.

At the date of issuance of these fi nancial statements and considering the instable political and economic situation in 

Argentina, there is uncertainty regarding the correct application of transactions at the offi cial or “free” fl oating exchange 

rate.  Thus, it is not possible to determine the current extent of the effects of the situation in Argentina with certainty, 

or the future changes that could result.

b.   Merger of Subsidiaries

The partners of Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Ltda. and Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Uno Ltda would 

like to merge both entities, so that the fi rst absorbs the second.  At the date of issuance of these fi nancial statements 

the public deed was in the process of being signed.  The fi rst transitional artice of the deed was signed and ratifi ed, so 

that the merger was effective as of January 1, 2002.

c.  

Dissolution of Subsidiaries

According to the minutes of the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting held on January 28, 2002, the following

Enersis S.A. and Subsidiaries Relevant Facts

Individual Enersis

Defi nitive Dividend

As of April 2, 2001, the Ordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of Enersis S.A. agrees the distribution of the defi nitive minimum 

obligatory dividend, charged to the profi t of the period that ended on December 31, 2000, reaching $1.806 per share, which 

totals M$14,976,820.

OPAs

On April 2, 2001, the Ordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of Enersis S.A. agrees to have recourse to the provision contained in the 

10th transitory article of Law No. 19,705, of December 20, 2000, that “Regulates the Tender Offer for Shares (POPS, OPA in 

Spanish), and Establishes Corporate Government Regime”, so that the current Company controller may exercise the option to 

freely alienate the shares issued by Enersis S.A., even though the price is substantially higher than the market price, privided 

that such alienation is performed in the next three years, counted from day 1 of the month following  the month in which such 

law was published. Likewise, the already mentioned Stockholders’ Meeting agrees to carry all necessary agreements to duly 

comply with and carry out the aforementioned resolution.

Purchasing Powers

On June 28, 2001, the Board of Directors of Enersis S.A.,  agreed, by unanimous vote of its present members, to open two 

Purchasing Powers in Chile to purchase the totality of the stock issued by Chilectra S.A. and the totality of the stock issued by 

Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. that are offered on sale by Enersis S.A. The holders of ADSs issued by Chilectra S.A. shall 

be able to sell in the Purchasing Power over Chilectra S.A. by exchanging its ADSs into shares issued by Chilectra S.A.

The Chilectra S.A. shares will be purchased at a price of Ch$2,200, legal currency, per share, and the Rio Maipo shares will be 

purchased at a price of Ch$250, legal currency, per share. Such prices will be paid in cash and they are identical to the prices 

offered in the Purchasing Powers opened by Enersis S.A. on such companies, as of November 21, 2000.

The Purchasing Powers will be opened as of July 3, 2001, date in which the present relevant fact and other pertinent information 

will be published in the Diario El Mercurio de Santiago newspaper. Each Purchasing Power will expire at 14:00 of the fi fteenth 

day, counted since the publication of an ad in Diario El Mercurio de Santiago announcing that the number of shareholders of 

Chilectra S.A., or Río Maipo S.A., as it corresponds, has become lower than 500. Anyway, both Purchasing Powers will expire 

not later than December 26, 2001, at 14:00.

Finally, the Board of Directors of the Company made the decision to declare that it is the intention of Enersis S.A. to propose, in 

the corresponding corporate instances and subject to applicable legal provisions at the moment, that the shares of Chilectra S.A. 

and Rio Maipo S.A, cease to be registered in the national and foreign stock exchanges as it corresponds, as soon as the conditions 

for such are given. 

After considering the nature of the operations, whose performance depends on the volume of the purchases and sales become 

perfected, and the time in which such purchase and sales take place during the in force period of the Purchasing Powers, it is 

not possible to a priori determine the effects that they may produce in the result. It is possible to state, though, that the total 

 
investment that the maximum share purchasing might imply, corresponding to the Purchasing Powers previously mentioned, 

would amount to the equivalent in Chilean pesos to approximately US$28,7 million.

Enersis Internacional tender offer to purchase bonds

As of November 6, 2001, the Enersis Internacional partnership, a company 100% owned by Enersis S.A., with domicile in the 

Cayman Islands, announced in the United States of America Tender offer to purchase in cash the issuing of bonds in dollars 

performed by Enersis S.A. (Cayman Islands Agency) on Nov. 1, 1996, whose expiration date is on Dec. 1, 2016 (the “Offer”).

Such issuing of bonds was originally for a total amount of US$350,000,000 (three hundred fi fty million American dollars, herein 

after “US$”) for twenty years, that is, to expire on 2016, at a cover annual rate of 7.4% (hereinafter “the Bonds”), and was 

registered in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of the United States of America.

The Enersis Internacional Offer is over the total amount of the Bonds that are circulating in the market and that reach the total 

of the originally issued, that is, US$350,000,000. The terms and conditions of the Enersis Internacional offer are recorded in 

the Offer to Purchase document dated November 6, 2001. The Offer dealer agent is Chase Manhattan International Limited 

(“JPMorgan”).

The exact price to be paid by Enersis Internacional for each US$1,000 of Bond capital will be determined by a formula which 

is explained in the Offer to Purchase and that will basically be the estimation of a margin or Spread over the yield to maturity 

of the United States Treasure Bond with a coupon rate of 5.0%, expiring on August 15, 2011. Enersis Internacional has offered, 

as well, to pay all the Bond holders that accept the Offer an amount equivalent to the interest accrued and not paid since the 

payment time of the last Bond coupon.

The Offer period has started with this date and will expire at 17:00, New York time, of November 16, 2001, unless Enersis 

Internacional decides to extend it or cancel it in advance (the “Termination Date”). The payment of Bonds to those holders 

that shall have accepted the offer will happen at the third labored day of transactions in the New York Stock Exchange since 

the acceptance from a holder. Once a holder has accepted the Offer, this operation is irrevocable. The remaining conditions 

of the Offer shall be contained in the Offer to Purchase.

The result of the Offer will be communicated to the market after the Termination Date (including any extension of it).

On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the immediate fi nancing needed to carry on the described operation is duly 

negotiated in the in the international credit markets.

Extension of the public offer period

As of November 19, 2001, Enersis Internacional informed the extension of the Offer termination date to the market. The Offer 

shall now expire at 17:00, New York time, of Wednesday, November 21, 2001, but all the remaining terms and conditions of 

the Offer shall remain unaltered.

Finally, and according to the provisions of communication No. 988 of the Superintendence of Securities and Insurance, the 

fi nal effects of the operation described in the results of Enersis S.A. cannot be reasonably quantifi ed at this time. These effects 

may only be determined once the defi nitive result of the Offer is known.

As of December 17, 2001, the entering of Enersis S.A. stock to the so-called Mercado de Valores Latinoamericano de la Bolsa 

de Valores de Madrid (Latin American Securities Market of the Madrid Stock Exchange, Latibex) has been formalized, and the 

fi rst transactions of the titles in the European market have already been done.

Endesa S.A. and Subsidiaries

During the period January-December 2001, and according to the General Rule No. 30, the partnership proceeded to inform the 

Superintendence of Securities and Insurance about the following essential or relevant facts.

Endesa

Sale of Participation

As of April 17, 2001, it is informed as an essential fact that, in an extraordinary meeting of the Board of the Company held 

in this date, it was agreed to alienate to Sociedad Obrascon Huarte Lain S.A. the stock participation of Empresa Nacional 

de Electricidad S.A. (ENDESA) in Sociedad Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A., which corresponds to 60% of its capital stock, and 

in Sociedad Concesionaria Autopista del Sol S.A., a partnership in which ENDESA owns 0,10% of the total equity, while the 

remaining percentage is owned by Sociedad Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A.

The price of the hereinbefore mentioned alienation is 2,253,000 U.F. (two million, two hundred fi fty three thousand Unidades 

de Fomento), exchangeable into American dollars at the time of the execution of the contract of promise of purchase of the 

referred stock participation.

The alienation process of the partnership Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A. shares to the partnership Obrascon Huarte Lain S.A., whose 

contract should have been executed before December 31, 2001, has extended the subscription to March 31, 2002.

Emgesa S.A. Trial

As of September 7, 2001, it is informed as an essential fact that EMGESA E.S.P., Colombian subsidiary of Empresa Nacional 

de Electricidad S.A., in which it owns 22.41% of its stock capital, was notifi ed of a environmental claim, also presented against 

the Corporación Autónoma Regional de Cundinamarca (Colombia) and the Empresa de Energía de Bogotá S.A. E.S.P., a 

company owned by the Bogotá Municipality that owns 51,5% of Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. The plaintiffs are the residents of the 

Sibaté-Cundinamarca Municipality, who are suing in representation of the total residents of such Municipality through a group 

action.

The claim was presented to the Administrative Court of Cundinamarca, and aims, according to its text, to obtain the declaration 

of liability of the defendants, and the complete repair of all material and moral damages that the plaintiffs may have suffered 

regarding the negative affectation and consecutive environmental damage that the defendants might have caused and shall cause 

to the Sibaté-Cundinamarca Municipality, as they would have permitted, bombed and shall continue bombing the contaminated 

waters of the Bogotá river in the Embalse del Muña reservoir, in order to use it in the generation of electric energy.

The totality of the demanded rendering reach approximately US$1,500,000,000, according to the plaintiffs themselves, for 

supposed material and moral damages.

 The supposed actions performed by the defendants, in what concerns to Emgesa S.A., E.S.P., in its condition of current owner 

and operator of the electric energy chains Guaca-Paraíso y Canoas, Salto I, Salto II y Laguneta, and Empresa de Energía de 

Bogotá S.A. E.S.P., in its condition of former owner and operator of the Embalse del Muña reservoir, would consist and would 

have consisted, respectively, in the plaintiffs’ opinion, to gather the contaminated waters of Bogotá river in the Embalse del Muña 

in order to make use of them in the generation of electric energy. The Corporación Autónoma Regional de Cundinamarca, a 

corporate public entity in charge of managing the environment and natural resources within the jurisdiction of Cundinamarca, 

is sued for its supposed and permanent omission by allowing the pumping of the contaminated waters of the Bogotá river to 

the Embalse del Muña, in the plaintiffs’ opinion as well.

Currently, the local lawyers of Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. in Colombia are analyzing the claim and corresponding defense strategy.  

Notwithstanding, we might immediately say that the economic activity performed by our subsidiary Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. is framed 

within the most strict attachment to the body of laws in force, that has been awarded all permissions and authorizations from the 

competent entities, including those with environmental competence, and that the eventual ecological damage is not imputable, 

absolutely, to such company’s behavior, as the water that is utilized in the generation of electric energy is not contaminated 

by such company and it cannot be considered as a polluting agent.

Additionally, it must be said that the claim aims to obtain the payment of compensations for supposed damages originated 

since many decades in the area, although Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. only generates energy in this reservoir since the end of 1997, 

date of its constitution.

Therefore, Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. and my represented are absolutely convinced that the Colombian Justice will fi nally reject this 

bold claim.

It is the excessive and unusual amount of the informed complaint and not its content or degree of juridical viability what 

has moved the Board of Directors of Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A. to communicate it as a relevant fact to such 

Superintendence.

Re-purchase of Bonds

As of November 6, 2001, it is informed as an essential fact that the Sociedad Endesa Chile Internacional partnership, 100% 

subsidiary of Endesa, domiciled in Cayman Islands, has announced in the United States of America a public offer or Tender 

offer to purchase in cash the issuing of bonds in dollars performed by Endesa (Cayman Islands Agency) on Feb. 1, 1997, whose 

expiration date is on 2027, as well as for the purchase in cash of the issuing of bonds in dollars performed by Endesa on Feb. 

1, 1997, whose expiration date is on 2097 (the “Offer”).

dollars, hereinafter “US$”) to thirty years, that is, expiring on 2027, at a cover annual rate of 7.875%. The second of these two 

bond issues was originally for a total amount of US$200,000,000 (two hundred million of US$) to one hundred years, that is,

Limited (“JPMorgan”).

The exact price to be paid by Endesa Chile Internacional for each US$1,000 of Bond capital will be determined by a formula 

which is explained in the Offer to Purchase and that will basically consist in calculating a margin or Spread over the yield 

to maturity of the United States Treasure Bond with a coupon rate of 5.375%, expiring on February 15, 2031. Endesa Chile 

Internacional has offered, as well, to pay all Bondholders that accept the Offer an amount equivalent to the interest accrued 

and not paid by the Bonds, excluding the payment date for this calculation.

The Offer period has started with this date and will expire at 17:00, New York time, of November 16, 2001, unless Endesa Chile 

Internacional decides to extend it or cancel it in advance (the “Termination Date”). The payment of Bonds to those holders 

that shall have accepted the offer will happen at the third labored day of transactions in the New York Stock Exchange since 

the acceptance from a holder. Once a holder has accepted the Offer, this operation is irrevocable. The remaining conditions 

of the Offer shall be contained in the Offer to Purchase.

The result of the Offer will be communicated to the market after the Termination Date (including any extension of it).

On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the immediate fi nancing needed to carry on the described operation is duly 

negotiated in the in the international credit markets.

Finally, and according to the provisions of the communication No. 988 of the Superintendence of Securities and Insurance, 

the fi nal effects of the operation described in the results of Endesa cannot be reasonably quantifi ed at this time. These effects 

may only be determined once the defi nitive result of the Offer is known.

Finally, and according to the provisions of the communication No. 988 of the Superintendence of Securities and Insurance,

Consolidated Management Analysis 

Financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 2001

Economic-fi nancial summary 

As at December 31, 2001, the Company achieved a Net Profi t of $ 40,926 million compared to the profi t of $ 92,875 million 

as at December 2000.

With respect to the decrease in profi t in the period December to December, it is important to consider that the signifi cant profi t 

achieved in 2000 was due mainly to an extraordinary income of some $ 150,500 million produced by the sale of the Company’s 

investments in Aguas Cordillera, Aguas Puerto and Transelec. Such divestments were not repeated during the year 2001. 

An essential element in the positive result in 2001 was the signifi cant growth in operating income that grew by 36% or $ 195,917 

million. The subsidiaries that contributed most to this improvement in operating income were Endesa, Cerj and Edesur. 

This improved operating income comprises mainly $ 111,194 million from the distribution business (57%) and $ 76,360 million 

from the generating business (39%). 

This positive achievement is particularly remarkable considering it was attained in the midst of a fairly depressed regional 

economic scenario throughout the year 2001 that was made signifi cantly worse by the events that took place in Argentina 

from November 2001 on. 

Furthermore, another positive aspect achieved during 2001 was the greater balance reached between the generation and 

the distribution businesses in most of the countries where we operate. This has contributed to a greater stability in aggregate 

cash fl ows.

Finally, in the area of fi nancial operations, we must highlight the repurchase of Yankee Bonds carried out by Enersis and its 

subsidiary, Endesa Chile that produced a fi nal profi t of $ 23.411 million after taxes. 

With regard to the evolution of the Minority Interests, this decreased by $ 57.133 million, essentially as a result of the lower profi ts 

from affi liated companies and, to a lesser degree, of the increase in the shareholding in Chilectra and Río Maipo, investments 

made by the Company during the past two years. 

Performance of distribution business

In this segment, we highlight the increase in physical sales achieved by Chilectra and Río Maipo (Santiago), Edesur (Buenos 

Aires) and Edelnor (Lima) which, unfortunately, were not able to compensate the decrease in sales registered by Codensa 

(Bogotá), Cerj (Río de Janeiro) and Coelce (Ceará). In the case of the last two, the fall was due to the rationing of power due 

to the drought in Brazil during 2001, and implied , for the whole group, a 1.2% reduction in aggregated physical sales or 593 

GWh.

In this same line of business, there was also a sustained improvement in the productivity ratio during 2001 in all subsidiaries in the 

fi ve countries where they operate. The average productivity rose from 1,223 clients per employee to 1,379 clients per employee, 

an improvement of 13%. This was the result of the addition of 317,000 new clients as well as a reduced staff complement 

related to a more effi cient distribution of human resources within the Group that led to a signifi cant reduction in cost of salaries 

that will continue to be refl ected in future periods.

Performance of generating business

The Operating Income of this business segment rose by 30%, due principally to the improved results in Chile, Peru and Colombia 

while they declined in Brazil and Argentina.

In Chile, the improvement in operating income was the result of an increase of 34.9% in average tariffs  and an increase of 

13.2% in the generation of hydroelectricity. In Peru, the increase was due mainly to a 17.6% rise in physical sales, refl ecting 

the greater generating capacity, and to the increase, in October 2000, of 191 MW of new additional capacity. In Colombia, 

operating income rose as a result of a 9.2% increase in physical sales and a 16.4% rise in average tariffs. In Brazil, the fall in 

operating income is due to a lower level of generation of hydroelectricity which implied a greater need to purchase power. 

Finally, in Argentina the fall is explained by the drop in physical sales at Central Costanera and to lower spot prices that could 

not be entirely compensated by the increase in generation of hydroelectricity at El Chocón as a result of a greater availability 

of water. 

Details of the variations described above can be found in the following pages, in the Analysis of the Financial Statements, 

which includes comments on the principal accounts in the Income Statement, Financial Statements and Principal Cash Flows, 

compared with the information corresponding to December 31, 2000.

As of December 17, 2001, the shares of both Enersis and Endesa Chile, are being traded in the Latin American Stock Market, 

Latibex, listed under the Madrid Stock Market within the framework of globalization of the principal companies in the region. 

Markets in which the company operates 

Enersis’ commercial activities are handled through subsidiaries that operate the various businesses in the countries where the 

company has a presence. For Enersis, the most important activities are the Distribution and Generation of electricity.

I.- ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. -Analysis of the Income Statements

The profi t obtained as at December 31, 2001 amounted to $ 40,926 million that is 56% or $ 51,949 million lower than the profi t 

of $ 92,875 million at the same date in the previous year. 

It is important to point out that despite the lower profi t, operating income during the period rose by 36% and the fall in profi t is 

mainly the result of profi ts obtained on the sale of assets in 2000, specifi cally of the investments in Aguas Cordillera S.A., Aguas 

Puerto S.A. and Transelec S.A., which produced extraordinary revenues of approximately $ 150,500 million.

a.- Operating Income  

Operating Income as at December 31, 2001 amounted to $ 732,567 million, an increase of 36% or $ 195,917 million with 

respect to the same period of 2000. The increase in operating income came mainly from the subsidiaries Endesa, Cerj and 

Edesur. 

In the Generating Business, the consolidated operating income of Endesa Chile rose by 30.4% during the period, amounting to 

$ 337,840 million. This growth in operating income can be explained basically by the improved performance of the operations 

in Chile, Peru and Colombia though partly affected by the reduction in the operating income from Argentina and Brazil.

In Chile, operating income increased by 102% or $ 132,627 million due principally to the rise by 34.9% in average sales prices 

and to the increase by 13.2% in the generation of hydroelectricity as a result to the improvement in the supply of water in the 

country. This implied a reduction of $ 18,569 million in the cost of purchasing power and fuel. 

In Peru, the increase by 21.2% in operating income is mainly due to the rise in physical sales of power, refl ecting the greater 

generating capacity the Company had during this year as a result of adequate levels of water in the reservoirs and of the increase 

of 191 MW in the level of capacity to produce hydroelectricity. The last of these units went into operation in October 2000.

In Colombia, operating income rose by 14% to $ 72,211 million as a result of the increase in average sales prices due to the 

restrictions on the transmission of electricity in Colombia at the beginning of 2001 and to the growth by 9.2% in sales of 

physical power.

In Brazil, the operating income of Endesa Chile Cachoeira Dourada decreased by 10.6% to $ 27,106 million as a result of a fall 

in hydroelectric generation during the year which led to a greater need to purchase power. 

The generating subsidiaries in Argentina suffered a fall of 11.1% in operating income that amounted to $ 41,787 million. This 

reduction is mainly the result of lower physical sales at Central Costanera due to the end of the contracts with the distribution 

companies in Buenos Aires and to lower spot prices during the year 2001. This was partly compensated by the increase of 

173.4% registered by El Chocón and explained by a greater generation of hydroelectricity during the period as a result of larger 

fl ows and the higher water levels in the reservoirs in the region. 

The Distribution Business has shown a signifi cant increase in operating income from practically all its subsidiaries, especially Cerj 

and Edesur whose operating income rose by $ 56,876 million and $ 26,236 million, respectively. Cerj’s increase was principally 

due to a greater volume of sales of power and to lower remunerations expenses following staff cuts at the plant. At Edesur, 

an Argentine subsidiary, the increase in operating income was due mainly to greater physical sales of power, a reduction in 

power losses and lower remuneration costs following staff cuts. 

Consolidated physical sales amounted to 48,188 GWh during the period ending on December 31, 2001. This implied a small 

reduction of 1% with respect to the same period of 2000 that had sales of 48,781 GWh due mainly to the rationing imposed 

by the Brazilian authorities.

b.- Non-Operating Income

The non-operating result was a loss of $ 483,496 million, which represents an increase of 194% or $ 319,019 million in comparison 

to the loss as at December 2000.  

The net fi nancial margin was a loss of $ 381,144 million that, when compared to the same period of the previous year, refl ects 

a decrease in costs by 8% as a result of lower interest rates on the international markets with respect to the year before that 

led to a reduction of $ 32,333 million in fi nancial costs.

Investments in related companies. As at December 2001, these amounted to a net loss of $ 10,387 million in comparison with 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
a profi t of $ 74 million for the same period of the previous year. This negative variation of $ 10,461 million is caused mainly by 

the effects of the exchange rates in the results of the related companies of Endesa Chile. 

Amortization on lower value of investments. As at December 31, 2001, this refl ects an increase in costs of $ 8,363 million and 

amounted to $ 77,988 million. The increased amortization is the consequence of the Lower Value produced by the purchase 

of shares in Chilectra and Río Maipo.

Non-operating income and expenses as at December 31, 2001 amounted to a net profi t of $ 13,875 million, refl ecting a fall 

of $ 320,699 million with respect to the year before when the profi t reached $ 334,574 million. The principal reasons for this 

fall in the results are detailed below: 

• 

A  reduction  of  $  198,975  in  comparison  with  the  profi ts  registered  in  2000  following  the  divestments  in  Aguas 

Cordillera S.A., Aguas Puesto S.A. and Transelec and a reduction of $ 74,144 million in the profi t on the sale of fi xed 

assets.

• 

A reduction of $ 15,783 million as at December 31, 2001 in comparison with last year due to the conversion over to 

Chilean Accounting Rules (Technical Bulletin Nº 64) mainly of the subsidiaries in Brazil and Argentina. This was principally 

due to the devaluation of the Brazilian Real and the Argentine Peso with respect to the US Dollar. 

• 

A reduction of $ 9,944 million in the compensation from exchange insurance that fell from a profi t of $ 4,359 million 

in December 2000 to a loss of $ 5,585 million in the current year

• 

• 

Increase of $ 24,492 million in provisions for contingencies and lawsuits. 

Increase of $ 15,730 million in staff benefi ts related mainly to the obligatory pension plan introduced during the period 

by the Brazilian authorities. 

• 

This is partly compensated by the profi t of $ 23,410 million on the repurchase of Bonds.

Price-level restatement and exchange differences. These show a rise of $ 16,053 million in the loss with respect to the same 

period of the previous year, going from a loss of $ 16,023 million as at December 31, 2000 to a loss of $ 27,852 million in this 

exercise. This is mainly due to the effects of the devaluation of the Peso with respect to the US Dollar during the current period. 

This was compensated to a great extent by the exchange insuance explained above. 

Interest rate risks

On a consolidated basis, as at December 31, 2000, 54% of the total debt was expressed in variable terms (principally Libor 

USD and Chilean TAB), whilst 46% was at fi xed rates and secure. 

As at December 31, 2001, the debt at variable rates represented 43% of the total debt, whilst 57% was at fi xed rates and 

secure.

The reduction in the percentage of debt at a variable rate during this year is explained basically by the refi nancing of the 

obligations at fi xed rates and by closing operations to hedge the Libor USD rate for a value of USD 650 million of which USD 

425 million were done by Enersis and USD 225 million by Endesa Chile.

The Company manages its interest rate risk by concentrating its debt structure on the long term with a suitable combination 

of debts at fi xed and variable interest rates. 

Foreign currency risk

The Company’s exposure to an exchange risk is brought about by the assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, 

mainly in US Dollars.

On a consolidated basis, as at December 31, 2000, Enersis had 68% of its total debt expressed in US Dollars. Bearing in mind 

the Dollar/UF forward position, the weight of this debt in US Dollars was reduced to 58%.

As at December 31, 2001, 72% of the debt was expressed in US Dollars. When considering the US Dollar/UF forward policy 

mentioned below, the percentage of the debt expressed in US Dollars is reduced to 65%.

The reason behind the largest part of our debt being denominated in US Dollars is the fact that an important proportion of 

our revenues is directly or indirectly related to the Dollar. Thus, the tariffs in the majority of the countries in which we have 

operations are tied to a large extent to the evolution of the US Dollar, particularly in Argentina, Chile and Peru. In countries 

where the indexation of the US Dollar is less, the companies take a greater proportion of their loans in local currency. 

As we have mentioned before, despite the hedging, we are exposed to the fl uctuations in the Peso/US Dollar rates of exchange. 

These are managed through the use of fi nancial derivative instruments, basically US Dollar/UF forward contracts, with which 

the exchange risk is hedged.

The exchange risk exposure is currently handled on a consolidated basis, taking into consideration the portion of this risk that 

our Chilean subsidiaries have not covered. The Company’s policy is to hedge between 60% and 70% of the booked exposure 

to exchange risks. 

On a consolidated basis, as at December 31, 2001, the Company had US Dollar/UF forward contracts for USD 506 million whilst 

as at December 31, 2000, the total was USD 902 million. The reduction is due to a decrease in the exposure to the variations 

in the Dollar exchange rate on our books. 

Although the actual exchange risk to which we are exposed depends on the fl uctuation of the exchange rates at which the 

Company’s assets and liabilities are maintained, for accounting purposes, our results are also affected bearing in mind the 

contents of Technical Bulletin Nº 64. In accordance with this Chilean accounting regulation, debts in foreign currency that were 

utilized to fi nance investments in countries with an “unstable currency” are matched to their corresponding investment and the 

variations in the US Dollar/Chilean Peso rate on those matched debts are not refl ected by entries in the Income Statement.     

2. -  Analysis of the fi nancial statements

The Company’s total assets refl ect an increase of $ 975,189 million with respect to the same period of the previous year. This 

is principally due to:

The increase in Fixed Assets as a result of applying the methodology of carrying the non-monetary assets in unstable 

countries in historic Dollars, as required by Technical Bulletin Nº 64.

• 

Current Assets include Term Deposits for $ 95,549 million and Sales Debtors for $ 59,335 million, compensated by a 

reduction of $ 10,648 million in forward contracts. 

• 

The rise in Other Assets can be explained by the increase of $ 86,795 million in deferred expenses.

Total debt increased by 9% or $ 597,862 million due mainly to the higher exchange rate applied to obligations with banks 

and fi nancial institutions and bonds. 

Minority interests rose by $ 332,860 million as a result of the increase in the equity of the overseas subsidiaries in line with the 

methodology of carrying non-monetary liabilities (equity) on the books in historic US Dollars. This was partially offset by the 

purchase of shares in the minority interests, Chilectra and Río Maipo. 

With regard to equity, we should point out that this increased by $ 44,467 million with respect to December 2000. This variation 

is explained by the increase of $ 19,245 million in Other Reserves, the decrease of $ 15,704 million in Retained Earnings and 

the booking of the profi t for the period of $ 40,926 million.

(385.2%)
(198.9%)

Operating activities generated a net positive fl ow of $ 643,612 million, 23% more than that produced in the same period of the 

previous year. This fl ow comprises mainly the profi t for the period of $ 40,926 million plus the net charges to income that do 

not represent cash fl ow for $ 544,262 million. Added to these is a reduction in assets that affect the operating fl ow for $ 141,361 

million, compensated in part by the reduction in liabilities that affect the operating fl ows by $ 204,444 million.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Financing activities produced a negative fl ow of $ 59,625 million due mainly to: the payment of loans for a value of $ 1,815,595 

million, the payment of dividends for a total of $ 140,260 million, the payment of Bonds for $ 154,631 million and Other 

Payments for $ 32,356 million. These are partially compensated by the loans received and the Bond issue for $ 1,880,485 and 

$ 272,209 million, respectively. 

Investment activities generated a net negative fl ow of $ 488,970 million, due fundamentally to the net incorporation of fi xed 

assets worth $ 331,605 million, other investments made for $ 182,418 million and investments in subsidiaries for $ 12,505 

million. These were partly compensated by the sale of fi xed assets and other income for $ 37,785 million.

II.  BOOK VALUE AND MARKET VALUE OF THE ASSETS 

With regard to the more important assets, we mention the following:

The value of the items in fi xed assets have been adjusted in accordance with the accounting criteria established by the Chilean 

Superintendency of Securities and Insurance in its Circulars Nº 550 and 556 issued in 1985. In the case of the foreign company, 

Inversiones Distrilima S.A., the value of the fi xed assets were adjusted in accordance with the exception criteria indicated in 

Technical Bulletin Nº 45 issued by the Chilean College of Accountants, the norm in force at the time the investment was made 

and which was not modifi ed by Technical Bulletin Nº 51 that replaced it.

Depreciation is calculated on the updated value of the goods in accordance with the years of useful life remaining for each 

item.

Investments in related companies are valued at their proportional equity value. In the case of foreign companies, as from the 

second quarter of 1998, this methodology has been applied on the basis of the fi nancial statements prepared in accordance 

with the norms established in Technical Bulletin Nº 64 of the Chilean College of Accountants.

Intangible values have been adjusted by price-level restatement and are amortized according to the norms indicated in Technical 

Bulletin Nº 55 of the Chilean College of Accountants.

The assets expressed in foreign currency are shown at the exchange rate reigning as at the date of closure of the period. 

Investments in fi nancial instruments with repurchase/resale agreements are shown at their purchase value plus the proportion 

of the interest calculated on the implicit rate of each operation. 

Accounts and bills receivable from related companies are classifi ed according to their short and long-term maturities. The 

operations are adjusted to equal conditions similar to those that are normally applied in the market.

In summary, assets are valued according to generally accepted accounting principles and norms and to instructions given on 

this matter by the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance explained in Note 2 of the Financial Statements.

Accounts Inspector’s Report

Pursuant to the provisions in law No. 18,046 on  Limited Liability Stock Companies and in compliance with the mandate 
granted by the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 02, 2001, we have examined the Consolidated Financial 
Statements of Enersis S.A. for period between January 1 and December 31, 2001.

Our assignment was focused on verifying, on a selecyive basis, the coincidence of the fi gures presented in the Financial 
Statements with the offi cial records of the Company and its subsidiaries and to such and end we compared the fi gures 
presented in the ledger with the grouping and classifi caton worksheets. To subsequently ascertain if these amounts 
which are the balances of accounts of the same nature match with those included in the Financial Statements, a revision 
which entailed no objections.

Report of Independent Accountants

(Translation of a report originally issued in Spanish  – See Note 2 to the fi nancial statements)

To the Shareholders of Enersis S.A.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Enersis S.A. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the 
related statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash fl ows for the years then ended. These fi nancial statements 
are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fi nancial statements 
based on our audits. We did not audit the fi nancial statements of the subsidiary Endesa – Chile S.A., whose total assets and revenues 
constitute 30 percent and 18 percent, in 2000, and 30 percent and 23 percent in 2001, respectively, of the related consolidated 
totals. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates 
to the amounts included for those entities, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.  

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Chile. Those standards require that we plan 
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the fi nancial statements are free of material misstatement. 
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the fi nancial statements. An audit 
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and signifi cant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the 
overall fi nancial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis 
for our opinion.

The fi nancial statements referred to above have been prepared to refl ect the individual fi nancial position of Enersis S.A. based on 
the criteria described in Note 2(a), before proceeding to the line-by-line consolidation of the subsidiaries detailed in Note 8(a).  
Therefore, for adequate interpretation, these fi nancial statements should be read and analyzed in conjunction with the consolidated 
fi nancial statements of Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries which are required by generally accepted accounting principles in Chile. This 
report is presented only for the information and use of the Board of Directors, the Company’s management and the Superintendency 
of Securities and Insurance.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, the fi nancial statements referred to above present fairly, in all 
material respects, the fi nancial position of Enersis S.A. as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the results of its operations and its 
cash fl ows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in Chile.

As described in Notes 8(e) and 25(a) to these fi nancial statements, the Company has valued investments in Argentina in accordance 
with Technical Bulletin No. 64 issued by the Chilean Association of Accountants. On a consolidated basis, these investments refl ect 
total assets of 14 percent, total revenues of 27 percent, and total operating income of 21 percent, of the related consolidated totals. 
Due to the unstable political and economic situation in Argentina and considering the effects of the Public Emergency Law, the 
Company’s subsidiaries and equity method investments are exposed to conditions which could affect the valuation of their assets, 
liabilities and equity and generate uncertainty as to their ability to pay obligations and continue operations. These fi nancial statements 
have been prepared assuming that the Company’s Argentine subsidiaries and equity method investments will continue as a going 
concern and do not refl ect the effects or eventual adjustments that may result from the resolution of these uncertainties.

Notes to the Audited Unconsolidated 
Financial Statements

Translation of fi nancial statements originally issued in Spanish – See Note 2

(Restated for general price-level changes and expressed in thousands of constant Chilean pesos as of December 31, 2001, except as stated)

Note 1 

Note 2  

Description of Business:

Enersis  S.A.  (the  “Company”)  is  registered  in  the  Securities  Register  under  No.  0175  and  is  regulated  by  the  Chilean 

Superintendency of Securities and Insurance (the “SVS”).  The Company issued publicly-registered American Depositary Receipts 

in 1993 and 1996.  Enersis S.A. also reports to United States Securities and Exchange Comission of the United States.

Summary of Signifi cant Accounting Policies:

(a)  General:

The fi nancial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 

in Chile and the regulations established by the SVS (collectively “Chilean GAAP”), except for the investments in related 

companies which are reported on a single line in the balance sheet at their equity value, and therefore, have not been 

consolidated line-by-line.  This treatment does not modify the net income or equity of the Company for the year. 

The preparation of fi nancial statements in conformity with Chilean GAAP requires management to make estimates and 

assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities 

as of the date of the fi nancial statements, and the reported amounted amounts of revenues and expenses during the 

reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The accompanying unconsolidated fi nancial statements refl ect the fi nancial position and results of operations of the 

agency formed by the Company in the Grand Cayman Islands in 1996.

(b)  Periods covered:

These fi nancial statements refl ect the Company’s fi nancial positions as of December 31, 2000 and 2001, and the results 

of its operations, the changes in its shareholders’ equity and its cash fl ows for the years ended December 31, 2000 

and 2001.

(c)   Constant currency restatement:

The cumulative infl ation rate in Chile as measured by the Chilean Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for the three-year period 

ended December 31, 2001 was approximately 10.66%.

Chilean GAAP requires that the fi nancial statements be restated to refl ect the full effects of loss in the purchasing power 

of the Chilean peso on the fi nancial position and results of operations of reporting entities.  The method described 

below is based on a model that enables calculation of net infl ation gains or losses caused by monetary assets and 

liabilities exposed to changes in the purchasing power of local currency. The model prescribes that the historical cost 

of all non-monetary accounts be restated for general price-level changes between the date of origin of each item and 

the year-end.

The fi nancial statements of the Company have been price-level restated in order to refl ect the effects of the changes in 

the purchasing power of the Chilean currency during each year. All non-monetary assets and 

liabilities, all equity accounts and income statement accounts have been restated to refl ect the changes in the CPI from 

the date they were acquired or incurred to year-end (see also Note 17).

The purchasing power gain or loss included in net income refl ects the effects of Chilean infl ation on the monetary assets 

and liabilities held by the Company.

The restatements were calculated using the offi cial consumer price index of the National Institute of Statistics and based 

on the “prior month rule,” in which the infl ation adjustments are based on the CPI at the close of the month preceding 

the close of the respective period or transaction.  This index is considered by the business community, the accounting 

profession and the Chilean government to be the index that most closely complies with the technical requirement to 

refl ect the variation in the general level of prices in Chile, and consequently it is widely used for fi nancial reporting 

purposes.

The values of the Chilean consumer price indices used to refl ect the effects of the changes in the purchasing power of 

the Chilean peso (“price-level restatement”) are as follows:

November 30, 2000 
November 30, 2001 

Change over 
Previous 
November 30,

4.7%
3.1%

Index 

106.82 
110.10 

By way of comparison, the actual values of the Chilean consumer price indices as of the balance sheet date are as follows:

December 31, 2000 
December 31, 2001 

Change over
 previous 
December 31,

4.5%
2.6%

Index 

106.94 
109.76 

The above-mentioned price-level restatements do not purport to represent appraisal or replacement values and are only 

intended to restate all non-monetary fi nancial statement components in terms of local currency of a single purchasing 

power and to include in net results for each year the gain or loss in purchasing power arising from the holding of 

monetary assets and liabilities exposed to the effects of infl ation.

Index-linked assets and liabilities

Assets and liabilities that are denominated in index-linked units of account are stated at the year-end values of the 

respective units of account.  The principal index-linked unit used in Chile is the Unidad de Fomento (“UF”), which is 

adjusted daily to refl ect the changes in Chile’s CPI.  Certain of the Company’s investments are linked to the UF.  As the 

Company’s indexed liabilities exceed its indexed assets, the increase in the index results in a net loss on indexation.  

Values for the UF are as follows (historical Chilean pesos per UF):

December 31, 2000 
December 31, 2001

Comparative fi nancial statements

For comparative purposes, the historical December 31, 2000 and 2001 consolidated fi nancial statements and their 

accompanying notes have been presented in constant Chilean pesos as of December 31, 2001.  Amounts previously 

presented in constant Chilean pesos as of each balance sheet date have been adjusted by the percentage changes in 

the CPI to December 31, 2001, as follows:

Period 

2000 
(1) Equivalent to the amounts for 2000 multiplied by the change in the CPI for 2001.

Change in Index

3.1% (1)

This updating does not change the prior periods’ statements or information in any way except to update the amounts 

to constant Chilean pesos of similar purchasing power.

Convenience translation to U.S. dollars

The fi nancial statements are stated in Chilean pesos.  The translations of Chilean pesos into US dollars are included 

solely for the convenience of the reader, using the observed exchange rate reported by the Chilean Central Bank as of 

December 31, 2001 of Ch$ 654.79 to US$ 1.00.  The convenience translations should not be construed as representations 

that the Chilean peso amounts have been, could have been, or could in the future be, converted into US dollars at this 

or any other rate of exchange.

(d)  Assets and liabilities in foreign currency:

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are detailed in Note 23.  These amounts have been stated at the 

observed exchange rates reported by the Central Bank of Chile as follows:

During the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, the Argentine peso has been pegged to the US dollar at a rate of 

1 Argentine peso to 1 US dollar. In early December 2001, restrictions were put in place that prohibited cash withdrawals 

above a certain amount and foreign money transfers, with certain limited exceptions.  While the legal exchange rate 

remained at 1 peso to 1 US dollar, fi nancial institutions were allowed to conduct only limited activity due to these controls, 

and currency exchange activity was effectively halted except for personal transactions in small amounts. In January 2002, 

the Argentine government announced its intent to create a dual currency system with a “offi cial” fi xed exchange rate of 

1.4 pesos to 1 US dollar for import, and export transactions and a “free” fl oating exchange rate for other transactions. On 

January 11, 2002, the exchange rate market holiday ended and closing new “free” fl oating exchange rates ranged from 

1.6 to 1.7 pesos to 1 US dollar.  In accordance with SVS Circular No. 81 the conversion of Argentine subsidiary fi nancial 

statements refl ect the conversion of 1.7 pesos to 1 US dollar.

(e) 

Property, plant and equipment:

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at contributed amounts or cost, as appropriate, plus price-level restatement. 

The charge to income by depreciation of the period as amount to ThCh$786,097 and ThCh$776,885 for the years ended 

December 31, 2000 and 2001.

In 1986, an increase based upon a technical appraisal of property, plant and equipment was recorded in the manner 

authorized by the SVS in Circulars No.’s 550 and 566 dated October 15 and December 16, 1985, respectively, and 

Communication No. 4.790, dated December 11, 1985.

(f)  Depreciation:

Depreciation expense is calculated on the revalued balances using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives 

of the assets. The depreciation charged to income amounted to ThCh$786,097 and ThCh$776,885 for the years ended 

December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The charges are classifi ed under “Cost of sales” in amounts of ThCh$779,347 

and ThCh$751,050, and under “Administrative and selling expenses” in amounts of ThCh$6,750 and ThCh$25,835 for 

the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

(g)  Allowance for doubtful accounts:

There were no write-offs of uncollectible accounts receivable during the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001.

(h) 

Intangibles, other than goodwill:

Intangibles other than goodwill correspond mainly to easements and are amortized according to the standards defi ned 

in Technical Bulletin No. 55 of the Chilean Association of Accountants.

(i) 

Investments in related companies:

Investments in related companies are included in Other non-current assets using the equity method. This valuation 

method recognizes in income the Company’s equity in the net income or loss of each investee on the accrual basis 

(Note 8).

Investments in foreign affi liates are recorded in accordance with Technical Bulletin No. 64 of the Chilean Association 

of Accountants.

(j)  Goodwill and negative goodwill:

Goodwill and negative goodwill are determined according to Circular No. 368 of the SVS.  Amortization is determined 

using the straight-line method, considering the nature and characteristic of each investment, foreseeable life of the 

business and investment return, and does not exceed 20 years.

(k)  Bonds:

Bonds payable are recorded at the face value of the bonds.  The difference between the face value and the placement 

value, equal to the premium or discount, is deferred and amortized over the term of the bonds.

(l) 

Income  taxes and deferred income taxes:

In accordance with circular No. 986 issued in 1991 by the SVS and Technical Bulletin No. 41 issued by the Chilean 

Association of Accountants, the Company records the effects of deferred taxes resulting from signifi cant timing differences 

that will not be fully offset when they reverse by similar new differences.

In accordance with circular No. 1466 issued in 2000 by the SVS, deferred taxes are presented in accordance with BT’s 

No.’s 60 and 68 of the Chilean Association of Accountants, which is effective as of January 1, 2000.

(m)  Severance indemnity:

The severance indemnity that the Company is obliged to pay to its employees under the collective bargaining agreements 

is stated at the present value of the benefi t under the vested cost method, discounted at 9.5% for the years ended 

December 31, 2000 and 2001, and assuming an average employment span which varies based upon years of services 

with the Company.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(n)  Pension and post-retirement benefi ts:

Pension and post-retirement benefi ts are recorded in accordance with the respective Collective Bargaining Contracts of 

the employees based on the actuarially determined projected benefi t obligation.

(o) 

Financial derivative contracts:

As of December 31, 2000 and 2001, the Company has entered into foreign currency forward, interest rate swaps and 

collars contracts with various fi nancial institutions to manage exposure related to certain foreign currency denominated 

balance sheet positions. Forward contracts are recorded in accordance with Technical Bulletin No. 57 of the Chilean 

Association of Accountants, and are held with related companies for investment purposes.

(p)  Research and development costs:

Costs incurred in research and development by the Company are either general in nature (water-level studies, hydroelectric 

research, seismic-activity surveys) which are expensed as incurred, or studies related to specifi c construction projects 

which are capitalized.

(q)   Statements of cash fl ows:

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been prepared in accordance with the indirect method.

Investments considered as cash equivalents, as indicated in point 6.2 of Technical Bulletin No. 50 issued by the Chilean 

Association of Accountants, include time deposits, investments in fi xed income securities classifi ed as marketable securities, 

repurchase agreements classifi ed as other current assets, and other balances classifi ed as other accounts receivable 

with maturities less than 90 days.

For classifi cation purposes, cash fl ows from operations include collections from clients and payments to suppliers, payroll 

and taxes.

(r) 

Reclassifi cations:

Certains amounts in the prior years’ fi nancial statements have been reclassifi ed in order to conform with the current 

Note 3 

year’s method of presentation. 

Change in Accounting Principle:

There were no changes in accounting principles during the current year that would effect the comparison with the prior 

year’s fi nancial statements.

Note 25  

Sanctions:

As of December, 2000 and 2001, there were no outstanding sanctions for the Company, directors, or management.

Subsequent events:

a.  

Situation in Argentina (unaudited)

On January 6, 2002, the Congress of the Republic of Argentina approved Law No. 25,561 entitled Public Emergency and 

Reform of the Exchange Regime.  The law established: the end of convertibility at parity of the 

Argentine peso 1 to 1 with the US dollar, fees for public services are converted into Argentine pesos at a rate of exchange 

of 1 to 1, the indexation clauses based on price indices of other countries are no longer in effect, and the Argentine 

Government’s Executive is authorized to renegotiate concession contracts with public service companies.

By function of the powers conferred to the Executive by this law, an offi cial exchange rate was established at $1.40 

Argentine pesos per US dollar for settled foreign commerce transactions and another rate that is “free” from restriction 

for all other transactions. The “free” fl oating exchange rate of the US dollar on the day the exchange market opened 

was $1.70 per US dollar.  (See Note 2(d)).

Subsequently, the Executive Branch agreed to convert all assets and liabilities using a conversion rate into Argentine 

pesos of rate of exchange of 1 to 1, except for deposits maintained in the fi nanial system.

On February 12, 2002, the Executive issued Decree No. 293, which granted authority to the Minister of Economics to 

renegotiate concession contracts with public service companies.  Within the public services included in the renegotiation 

of the contracts, the Decree specifi cally mentions the distribution and commercialization of electric energy.

Based on these factors described above and before negotiations have started with the Argentine government. The 

Company estimates that net cash fl ows (operating cash fl ows less fi nancing cash fl ows) for 2002 will decrease by 

approximately US$ 112,000,000, from the total of its Latin American operations which represented an 18.7% of total 

cash fl ows during 2001.

The Company plans to mitigate this reduction in net cash fl ows through the renegotiation of concession contracts with 

the Argentine Government.  The economic criteria of these negotiations have been defi ned in the decree, and it is the 

Company’s belief that it will be possible to recouperate the diminished net cash fl ows in a reasonable period of time.

Despite the diffi cult economic postion present in Argentina as described above during the months of January and 

February 2002, the Company’s subsidiaries and affi liates in Argentina have continued to operate regularly in the electric 

sector and continued to service all contractual  client demands.

At the date of issuance of these fi nancial statements and considering the instable political and economic situation in 

Argentina, there is uncertainty regarding the correct application of transactions at the offi cial or “free” fl oating exchange 

rate.  Thus, it is not possible to determine the current extent of the effects of the situation in Argentina with certainty, 

or the future changes that could result.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
b.  Merger of Subsidiaries

The company is in the process of merging its subsidiaries Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Ltda. and Compañía 

Americana de Multiservicios Uno Ltda. so that the fi rst absorbs the latter, effective as of January 1, 2002. At the date of 

issuance of these fi nancial statements the public deed was in the process of being signed. 

c. 

Dissolution of Subsidiaries

According to the minutes of the Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting held on January 28, 2002, the following 

companies have been dissolved: Empresa Eléctrica de Panamá S.A., Interocean Development Inc., Sociedad Panameña 

de Electricidad S.A. and Estelmar Holding S.A.  The assets and liabilities of these companies have been proportionally 

distributed according to the shareholder participation of each one of the partners. 

Note 26  

Environment:

As the Company is a holding company and does not have any operations, there are no environmental disclosures required.

Enersis S.A. Relevant Facts

Provisional Dividend

The Board of Directors of Enersis S.A., as of February 2, 2001, agreed upon unanimous vote of its members not to distribute, 

in February 2001, a provisional dividend charged to the results of December 2000, due to not satisfying the requirements 

provided for such action in the Dividend Policy of the Company.

Defi nitive Dividend

As of April 2, 2001, the Ordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of Enersis S.A. agreed the distribution of the defi nitive minimum 

obligatory dividend, charged to the profi t of the period that ended on December 31, 2000, reaching $1.806 per share, which 

totals M$14,976,820.

OPAs

On April 2, 2001, the Ordinary Stockholders’ Meeting of Enersis S.A. agrees to have recourse to the provision contained in the 

10th transitory article of Law No. 19,705, of December 20, 2000, that “Regulates the Tender Offer for Shares (POPS, OPA in 

Spanish), and Establishes Corporate Government Regime”, so that the current Company controller may exercise the option to 

freely alienate the shares issued by Enersis S.A., even though the price is substantially higher than the market price, privided 

that such alienation is performed in the next three years, counted from day 1 of the month following  the month in which 

such law was published. Likewise, the already mentioned Stockholders’ Meeting agrees to carry all necessary agreements to 

duly comply with and carry out the aforementioned resolution.

Provisional dividend

The Board of Directors of Enersis S.A., as of April 27, 2001, agrees upon unanimous vote of its present members not to distribute, 

in May 2001, a provisional dividend charged to the results of March 2001, according to the policy in force on this matter, due to 

not satisfying the requirements provided for such action in the dividend Policy of the Company.

Purchasing Powers

On June 28, 2001, the Board of Directors of Enersis S.A.,  agreed, by unanimous vote of its present members, to open two 

Purchasing Powers in Chile to purchase the totality of the stock issued by Chilectra S.A. and the totality of the stock issued by 

Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. that are offered on sale by Enersis S.A. The holders of ADSs issued by Chilectra S.A. shall 

be able to sell in the Purchasing Power over Chilectra S.A. by exchanging its ADSs into shares issued by Chilectra S.A.

The Chilectra S.A. shares will be purchased at a price of Ch$2,200, legal currency, per share, and the Rio Maipo shares will be 

purchased at a price of Ch$250, legal currency, per share. Such prices will be paid in cash and they are identical to the prices 

offered in the Purchasing Powers opened by Enersis S.A. on such companies, as of November 21, 2000.

The Purchasing Powers will be opened as of July 3, 2001, date in which the present relevant fact and other pertinent information 

will be published in the Diario El Mercurio de Santiago newspaper. Each Purchasing Power will expire at 14:00 of the fi fteenth 

day, counted since the publication of an ad in Diario El Mercurio de Santiago announcing that the number of shareholders of 

Chilectra S.A., or Río Maipo S.A., as it corresponds, has become lower than 500. Anyway, both Purchasing Powers will expire 

not later than December 26, 2001, at 14:00.

Finally, the Board of Directors of the Company resolves to declare that Enersis S.A. has the intention of proposing, in the 

corresponding corporate instances, and according to the then-applicable legal provisions, that the shares of Chilectra S.A. and 

Rio Maipo S.A, cease to be registered in the national and foreign stock exchanges as it corresponds, as soon as the conditions 

for it become feasible.

Given the nature of the operations, whose performance depends on the volume of the purchases and sales become perfected, 

and the time in which such purchase and sales take place during the in force period of the Purchasing Powers, it is not possible 

to a priori determine the effects that they may produce in the result. It is possible to indicate, though, that the total investment 

that the maximum share purchasing might imply, corresponding to the Purchasing Powers previously mentioned, would be 

equivalent in Chilean pesos to approximately US$28,7 million.

Provisional dividend

The Board of Directors of Enersis S.A., as of July 31, 2001, agrees upon unanimous vote of its present members not to distribute, 

in August 2001, a provisional dividend charged to the results of June 2001, according to the policy in force on this matter, due 

to not satisfying the requirements provided for such action in such dividend Policy of the Company.

Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A.

As of Sept. 7, 2001, E.S.P., Colombian hydroelectric partnership controlled by our subsidiary Empresa Nacional de Electricidad 

S.A., of which Enersis indirectly owns 14,70%, was notifi ed of a environmental complaint, also presented against the Corporación 

Autónoma Regional de Cundinamarca (Colombia) and the Empresa de Energía de Bogotá S.A. E.S.P., a company property of 

the Bogotá Municipality and that owns 51,5% de Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. The plaintiffs are the residents of the Sibaté-Cundinamarca 

Municipality, who are demanding in representation of the 25,000 residents of such Municipality through a group action.

The complaint aims to obtain the repair of all supposed material and moral damage that the defendants might have suffered 

when the plaintiffs allowed the use of the contaminated waters of the Bogotá river in the Embalse del Muña reservoir, in order 

to use it in the generation of electric energy.

The complaint demands approximately to US$1,500,000,000, an amount which, beyond considerations of the essence, is 

considered as completely disproportionate regarding the supposed damages.

Notwithstanding, it can be said that the economic activity performed by Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. is framed in the most strict attachment 

to the body of laws in force, that has been awarded all permissions and authorizations from the competent entities, including 

those with environmental competence, and that the eventual ecological damages are not imputable, absolutely, to such 

company’s behavior, as the water that is utilized in the generation of electric energy is not contaminated by such company 

and it cannot be considered as a polluting agent. Therefore, Emgesa S.A. E.S.P. is absolutely convinced that the Colombian 

justice will fi nally reject this bold complaint.

Attending  the  foundations  of  the  complaint,  it  is  considered  that  it  will  cause  no  effect  or  infl uence  in  the  property  of 

Enersis S.A:

Enersis Internacional tender offer to purchase bonds

As of November 6, 2001, the Enersis Internacional partnership, a company 100% owned by Enersis S.A., with domicile in the 

Cayman Islands, announced in the United States of America Tender offer to purchase in cash the issuing of bonds in dollars 

performed by Enersis S.A. (Cayman Islands Agency) on Nov. 1, 1996, whose expiration date is on Dec. 1, 2016 (the “Offer”).

Such issuing of bonds was originally for a total amount of US$350,000,000 (three hundred fi fty million American dollars, 

hereinafter “US$”) for twenty years, that is, to expire on 2016, at a cover annual rate of 7.4% (hereinafter “the Bonds”), and was 

registered in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of the United States of America.

The Enersis Internacional Offer is over the total amount of the Bonds that are circulating in the market and that reach the total 

of the originally issued, that is, US$350,000,000. The terms and conditions of the Enersis Internacional offer are recorded in 

the Offer to Purchase document dated November 6, 2001. The Offer dealer agent is Chase Manhattan International Limited 

(“JPMorgan”).

The exact price to be paid by Enersis Internacional for each US$1,000 of Bond capital will be determined by a formula which 

is explained in the Offer to Purchase and that will basically be the estimation of a margin or Spread over the yield to maturity 

of the United States Treasure Bond with a coupon rate of 5.0%, expiring on August 15, 2011. Enersis Internacional has offered, 

as well, to pay all the Bond holders that accept the Offer an amount equivalent to the interest accrued and not paid since the 

payment time of the last Bond coupon.

The Offer period has started with this date and will expire at 17:00, New York time, of November 16, 2001, unless Enersis 

Internacional decides to extend it or cancel it in advance (the “Termination Date”). The payment of Bonds to those holders 

that shall have accepted the offer will happen at the third labored day of transactions in the New York Stock Exchange since 

the acceptance from a holder. Once a holder has accepted the Offer, this operation is irrevocable. The remaining conditions 

of the Offer shall be contained in the Offer to Purchase.

The result of the Offer will be communicated to the market after the Termination Date (including any extension of it).

On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the immediate fi nancing needed to carry on the described operation is duly 

negotiated in the in the international credit markets.

Extension of the public offer period

As of November 19, 2001, Enersis Internacional informed the extension of the Offer termination date to the market. The Offer 

shall now expire at 17:00, New York time, of Wednesday, November 21, 2001, but all the remaining terms and conditions of 

the Offer shall remain unaltered.

Finally, and according to the provisions of the communication No. 988 of the Superintendence of Values and Insurance, the 

fi nal effects of the operation described in the results of Enersis S.A. cannot be reasonably quantifi ed at this time. These effects 

may only be determined once the defi nitive result of the Offer is known.

Latibex

As of December 17, 2001, the entering of Enersis S.A. stock to the so-called Mercado de Valores Latinoamericano de la Bolsa 

de Valores de Madrid (Latin American Securities Market of the Madrid Stock Exchange, Latibex) has been formalized, and the 

fi rst transactions of the titles in the European market have already been done.

Parent Company Management Analysis 

Financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 2001

Economic-fi nancial summary 

As at December 31, 2001, the Company achieved a Net Profi t of $ 40,926 million compared to the profi t of $ 92,875 million 

as at December 2000.

With respect to the decrease in profi t in the period December to December, it is important to consider that the signifi cant profi t 

achieved in 2000 was due mainly to an extraordinary income of some $ 150,000 million produced by the sale of the Company’s 

investments in Aguas Cordillera, Aguas Puerto and Transelec. Such divestments were not repeated during the year 2001. 

An essential element in the positive result in 2001 was the signifi cant growth in operating income that grew by 36% or $ 195,917 

million. The subsidiaries that contributed most to this improvement in operating income were Endesa, Cerj and Edesur. 

This improved operating income comprises mainly $ 111,194 million from the distribution business (57%) and $ 76,360 million 

from the generating business (39%). 

This positive achievement is particularly remarkable considering it was attained in the midst of a fairly depressed regional 

economic scenario throughout the year 2001 that was made signifi cantly worse by the events that took place in Argentina 

from November 2001 on. 

Furthermore, another positive aspect achieved during 2001 was the greater balance reached between the generation and 

the distribution businesses in most of the countries where we operate. This has contributed to a greater stability in aggregate 

cash fl ows.

Finally, in the area of fi nancial operations, we must highlight the repurchase of Yankee Bonds carried out by Enersis and its 

subsidiary, Endesa Chile that produced a fi nal profi t of $ 23.411 million after taxes. 

With regard to the evolution of the Minority Interests, this decreased by $ 57.133 million, essentially as a result of the lower profi ts 

from affi liated companies and, to a lesser degree, of the increase in the shareholding in Chilectra and Río Maipo, investments 

made by the Company during the past two years. 

Performance of distribution business

In this segment, we highlight the increase in physical sales achieved by Chilectra and Río Maipo (Santiago), Edesur (Buenos 

Aires) and Edelnor (Lima) which, unfortunately, were not able to compensate the decrease in sales registered by Codensa 

(Bogotá), Cerj (Río de Janeiro) and Coelce (Ceará). In the case of the last two, the fall was due to the rationing of power due 

to the drought in Brazil during 2001, and implied , for the whole group, a 1.2% reduction in aggregated physical sales or 593 

GWh.

The growth of US$ 170 million in operating income was explained mainly by Cerj (US$ 87 million), Edesur (US$ 40 million), 

Coelce (US$ 19 million) and Codensa (US$ 11 million).

In this same line of business, there was also a sustained improvement in the productivity ratio during 2001 in all subsidiaries in the 

fi ve countries where they operate. The average productivity rose from 1,223 clients per employee to 1,379 clients per employee, 

an improvement of 13%. This was the result of the addition of 317,000 new clients as well as a reduced staff complement 

related to a more effi cient distribution of human resources within the Group that led to a signifi cant reduction in cost of salaries 

that will continue to be refl ected in future periods.

Performance of Generating Business

The Operating Income of this business segment rose by 30.4%, due principally to the improved results in Chile, Peru and 

Colombia while they declined in Brazil and Argentina.

In Chile, the improvement in operating income US$ 103 million, was the result of an increase of 34.9% in average tariffs  and an 

increase of 13.2% in the generation of hydroelectricity. In Peru, the increase by US$ 18 million was due mainly to a 17.6% rise 

in physical sales, refl ecting the greater generating capacity, and to the increase, in October 2000, of 191 MW of new additional 

capacity. In Colombia, operating income rose by US$ 13 million as a result of a 9.2% increase in physical sales and a 16.4% rise 

in average tariffs. In Brazil, the fall in operating income by US$ 5 million is due to a lower level of generation of hydroelectricity 

which implied a greater need to purchase power. Finally, in Argentina the fall by US$ 8 millions explained by the drop in physical 

sales at Central Costanera and to lower spot prices that could not be entirely compensated by the increase in generation of 

hydroelectricity at El Chocón as a result of a greater availability of water. 

Details of the variations described above can be found in the following pages, in the Analysis of the Financial Statements, 

which includes comments on the principal accounts in the Income Statement, Financial Statements and Principal Cash Flows, 

compared with the information corresponding to December 31, 2000.

On the other hand, in the fi nancial area, the exchange rate continued to rise, reaching a record level of over Ch$ 700, a 

circumstance which had great impact on the foreign exchange translation  line.  The closing exchange rate on December 31 was 

Ch$ 654.79 which, compared to the closing fi gure on December 31, 2000 of Ch$ 573.65, represents a devaluation of 14%.

As of December 17, 2001, the shares of both Enersis and Endesa Chile, are being traded in the Latin American Stock Market, 

Latibex, listed under the Madrid Stock Market within the framework of globalization of the principal companies in the region. 

Markets in which the company operates 

Enersis’ commercial activities are handled through subsidiaries that operate the various businesses in the countries where the 

company has a presence. For Enersis, the most important activities are the Distribution and Generation of electricity.

I.- ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. - Analysis of the Income Statements

The profi t obtained as at December 31, 2001 amounted to $ 40,926 million that is 56% or $ 51,949 million lower than the profi t 

of $ 92,875 million at the same date in the previous year. 

It is important to point out that despite the lower profi t, operating income during the period rose by 36% and the fall in profi t is 

mainly the result of profi ts obtained on the sale of assets in 2000, specifi cally of the investments in Aguas Cordillera S.A., Aguas 

Puerto S.A. and Transelec S.A., which produced extraordinary revenues of approximately $ 82.663 million.

Non-Operating Income

The non-operating result recorded a profi t of $ 49.484 million, which represents a decrease of 53% or $ 55.283 million in 

comparison to December 2000.  

The net fi nancial margin registered $ 25.570 million profi ts compared to December 2000. This positive outcome is related to 

lower indebtedness and also lower interest rates in the international markets.

Investments in related companies show a net profi t of $ 231.680 million, that is $ 17.770 million higher than December 2000. 

This positive variation is mainly related to better results of Edesur, Distrilec, Enersis de Argentina, Luz de Bogota y Chilectra by 

$ 41.339 million, partially compensated by lower results recognized from Endesa Chile by $ 24.904. 

Amortization on lower value of investments increased by $ 5.811 amounting to 49.001 million. This increase is mainly related 

to the acquisition of additional equity interest in our subsidiaries Chilectra and Rio Maipo.

Non-operating income and expenses as at December 31, 2001 amounted to a net profi t of $ 12,831 million, refl ecting a fall of 

$ 82.424 million respect to the year before, when the profi t reached $ 95.255 million. The main reasons for this fall are: 

• 

A reduction of $ 82.663 million related to the one time profi ts registered in 2000 in connection with the divestments 

in Aguas Cordillera S.A., Aguas Puesto S.A.

• 

• 

An increase in losses because of the dividends granted to Chilectra de Argentina S.A., by $ 9.425 million. 

Higher non operating income related to the repurchase of bonds made by our subsidiary Enersis International , adn 

equivalent to $ 5.370 million. 

 
 
 
 
 
Price-level restatement and exchange differences. These show a higher loss of $ 11,698 million, from a loss of $ 24.518 million 

as at December 31, 2000 to a loss of $ 36.216 million in this exercise. This was mainly due to the effects of 11.04% devaluation 

of the Peso respect to the US Dollar, compared to only 3.52% devaluation during the year 2000. 

Interest rate risks

As at December 31, 2001, Enersis had 40% of its debt exposed to fl oating rates (basically Libor and TAB Chile rate, while debt 

at variable rate for the year 2000 was 71%.

The reduction in the percentage of debt at variable rate during this year is mainly explained by  changing obligations to fi xed 

rates, as well as by hedging US$ 425 million over Libor rate. 

Considering the situation of debt exposed to fl oating rate trough all its subsidiaries, this would result 54% in 2000, and 43% 

in 2001. 

Foreign currency risk

The Company’s exposure to an exchange risk is brought about by the assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, 

mainly in US Dollars.

As at December 31, 2000, 51% of the debt was expressed in US Dollars. When considering the US Dollar/UF forward policy, 

the percentage of the debt expressed in US Dollars is reduced to 45%.

As at December 31, 2001, 60% of the debt was expressed in US Dollars. When considering the US Dollar/UF forward policy, 

the percentage of the debt expressed in US Dollars is reduced to 56%.

The important proportion of debt denominated in US Dollars is basically explained because a very important percentage of 

Enersis revenues are, directly or indirectly, linked to the US Dollar.  

The exchange risk exposure is currently handled on a consolidated basis. The Company’s policy is to hedge between 60% 

and 70% of the exposure to exchange risks. 

On a consolidated basis, as at December 31, 2001, the Company had US Dollar/UF forward contracts for USD 506 million whilst 

as at December 31, 2000, the total was USD 902 million. The reduction is due to a decrease in the exposure to the variations 

in the Dollar exchange rate on our books. 

This hedging policy lies in maintaining a certain position in forward contracts US$/UF. In December 2000, Enersis had forward 

contracts by US$ 196 million, while as of December 2001, these contracts amounted to US$ 164 million.

Total liabilities by 23.6% or $ 109.204 million mainly due to an increase in the obligations with banks and also to a higher 

exchange rate applied to obligations with banks and fi nancial institutions and over bonds. 

In relation to the equity, it increased by $ 44,467 million. This variation is explained by the increase of $ 19,245 million in Other 

Reserves, the decrease of $ 15,704 million in Retained Earnings and profi ts of 2001 for $ 40,926 million.

Operating activities generated a net negative cash fl ow of $ 3.438. This fl ow comprises mainly by profi ts for the period of 

$ 40,926 million less additions to the net income that do not represent cash fl ow for $ 147.217 million. Additionally, a positive 

variation in liabilities impacting the operating cash fl ow for $  21.489 million, and by positive variation on assets that do impact 

the operating cash fl ow for $ 81.358 million.

Financing activities produced a positive cash fl ow of $ 90.238 million mainly due to new loans hired in the amount of $ 708.926 

million and bonds issued by $ 99.341 million. This was partially offset by prepayment of loans for $ 393.889 million, dividends 

paid for $ 15.394 million, loans paid to related companies for $ 305.869 million, and other payments for $ 9.842 million. 

Investment activities generated a net negative fl ow of $ 83.421 million, basically due to loans granted to related companies for 

$ 178.338 million and investments for $ 11.060 million. This was compensated by collection on loans given to related companies 

in the amount of $ 93.059 million, and others for $ 13.010 million.

II. BOOK VALUE AND MARKET VALUE OF THE ASSETS 

With regard to the more important assets, we mention the following:

The value of the items in fi xed assets have been adjusted in accordance with the accounting criteria established by the Chilean 

Superintendency of Securities and Insurance in its Circulars Nº 550 and 556 issued in 1985. In the case of the foreign company, 

Inversiones Distrilima S.A., the value of the fi xed assets were adjusted in accordance with the exception criteria indicated in 

Technical Bulletin Nº 45 issued by the Chilean College of Accountants, the norm in force at the time the investment was made 

and which was not modifi ed by Technical Bulletin Nº 51 that replaced it.

Depreciation is calculated on the updated value of the goods in accordance with the years of useful life remaining for each 

item.

Investments in related companies are valued at their proportional equity value. In the case of foreign companies, as from the 

second quarter of 1998, this methodology has been applied on the basis of the fi nancial statements prepared in accordance 

with the norms established in Technical Bulletin Nº 64 of the Chilean College of Accountants.

Intangible values have been adjusted by price-level restatement and are amortized according to the norms indicated in Technical 

Bulletin Nº 55 of the Chilean College of Accountants.

The assets expressed in foreign currency are shown at the exchange rate reigning as at the date of closure of the period. 

Investments in fi nancial instruments with repurchase/resale agreements are shown at their purchase value plus the proportion 

of the interest calculated on the implicit rate of each operation. 

Accounts and bills receivable from related companies are classifi ed according to their short and long-term maturities. The 

operations are adjusted to equal conditions similar to those that are normally applied in the market.

In summary, assets are valued according to generally accepted accounting principles and norms and to instructions given on this 

matter by the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance explained in Note 2 of the Financial Statements.
