sell shares of those companies that presented 

the best liquidity. In that context, a strong sales 

trend came upon the Enersis shares, which 

explained, in great measure, the deep fall in the 

stock-exchange valuation of our titles.

The steady slow down of the United States of 

America, the low expectations for the recovery 

of the stock-exchange markets of some relevant 

Asian actors, and, moreover, the threats of war in 

the Middle East, which have strongly impacted 

the stability of the energy prices and the exchange 

rate stability of the region, were all added to the 

previous problems.

The company was originally organized as 

Compañía Chilena Metropolitana de Distribución 

Eléctrica S.A., as recorded in a public deed of 

June 19, 1981, executed before Patricio Zaldívar,

by notary deed of July 13 the same year.

The existence of the Company was authorized and 

its by-laws were approved pursuant to resolution 

No 409-S of July 17, 1981, issued by the 

Superintendence of Securities and Insurance. The 

abstract of such authorization and its approval 

were recorded in the Official Commerce Register 

of Santiago, on page 13,099 No 7,629 of the year 

1981, and published in the Official Gazette on 

July 23, 1981.

On June 19, 1981, Compañía Chilena de 

Electricidad S.A. was restructured into a parent 

company and three subsidiaries, one of which 

was Compañía Chilena Metropolitana de 

Distribución Eléctrica S.A.

In 1985, as a result of the privatization policy 

enacted by the Government of Chile, the transfer 

of the capital stock of Compañía Chilena 

Metropolitana de Distribución Eléctrica S.A. 

to the private sector began. This process was 

completed on August 10, 1987. Through this 

process, private pension funds (A.F.P.), the 

company’s workers, institutional investors and 

thousands of small investors became stockholders 

of the Company.

To date, the by-laws have been subsequently 

amended. The existence of the company under 

the current name of Enersis S.A. dates back

This year, the rearrangement in the use of the 

physical facilities of the Group in Chile continued 

with Enersis moving to its new corporate building 

located at Santa Rosa No. 76, Santiago.Thus, the 

regional heads of the business lines of the Group 

are now present and operate in the same building. 

The Contractor Management model for Latin 

America was defined. Its diffusion to the 

companies of the Group in Latin America and 

global vision of business, as well as to work on 

management skills that are essential to improve 

the management potential of this group. The 

training program is the only corporate activity 

that gathers executive officers from different 

countries, cultures, education and business lines 

under the same umbrella, which results in a 

higher commitment with the present and future 

Group’s company project.

Likewise, the training plans carried out for 

workers (professional and administrative), which 

had been carried out in 2001, continued during 

2002. They were aimed at consolidating corporate 

values and the achievement of the Group’s 

strategic objectives, totaling 11,974 hours/man.

CULTURAL ACTIVITIES

Enersis has reaffirmed its commitment to the 

community, with a strong bet on education 

and culture as an integration channel and a 

real contribution to society. In August 2002, 

the sustained effort on cultural activities made 

by Enersis during the last years was rewarded 

by Corporación Amigos del Arte, a Chilean 

institution, with the Great Prize “Ernesto Pinto 

Lagarrigue” in recognition for the Company’s 

permanent support to the cultural development 

in Chile. In the words of Corporación Amigos 

del Arte, this distinction was awarded to Enersis 

as a token of appreciation to the Company 

which “through time has sustained a policy of 

cooperation with the public that has undoubtedly 

favored our national artists as well as a massive 

audience, always grateful for every possibility 

to know and admire the various aspects of each 

exhibitor.”

The prestigious award obtained was a 

confirmation to Enersis that it is doing a very good 

job with the activities which, year after year, it has 

been conducting in the cultural area. During 2002, 

these activities can be summarized as follows:

II Latin American Painting Contest

For the third consecutive year, Enersis called 

for painters to create. This initiative, which 

began in the year 2000 as a contest for Chilean 

painters, continued in 2001 with a Latin 

American exhibition. Due to the great success of 

this contest, during the second semester of 2002,

Business Activities

HISTORICAL EXPANSION

Enersis is the largest private electrical Group in 

Latin America. This has been achieved through 

a stable and balanced growth in its business 

activities in electric energy, generation and 

distribution, as well as in businesses related to 

these activities.

Synapsis Soluciones y Servicios IT Ltda. 

Aimed at providing services and equipment 

related to computing and data processing.

Inmobiliaria Manso de Velasco Ltda. 

In the real estate business, committed to the 

integral development of real estate projects, and to 

the management, leasing, purchasing and sales of 

real estate owned by Enersis and its subsidiaries 

in Chile.

Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Ltda.

Whose areas of action are related to commercial 

and other operations in networks for public 

service companies, preferably in measuring 

systems for utilities, and as a purchase agent, an 

importer and exporter, and also as a merchandiser 

and materials supplier for the subsidiary 

companies of Enersis and third parties.

The electric energy distribution business has 

been performed jointly with its subsidiary 

Chilectra S.A., a company whose main aim is the 

distribution of electric energy in the Metropolitan 

Region and abroad. It also participates in the 

distribution and sale of electric energy together 

with its subsidiary, Compañía Eléctrica del Río 

INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Enersis started its process of expansion to other 

countries during 1992, by participating in various 

privatization processes in the neighboring 

countries of Latin America, thus developing a 

significant presence in the electric sectors of 

Maipo S.A., in the areas surrounding those served 

Argentina, Perú, Colombia, and Brazil.

by Chilectra.

Through its subsidiary Empresa Nacional de 

Electricidad S.A. (Endesa Chile), it has been 

materializing its investments in the generation of 

electric energy in the country and abroad.

Additionally, Enersis is present in business areas 

complementary to its main activities, through the 

ownership of a majority stake in the following 

companies:

In July of 1992, Edesur, a company that 

distributes electric energy to the city of Buenos 

Aires, Argentina, was adjudicated to Distrilec 

Inversora S.A., a company in which Enersis 

participates. Afterwards, in December, 1995, 

Enersis purchased an additional 39% of that 

company, becoming its controller since then.

RISK FACTORS

Enersis is an investment company whose assets 

are properly diversified in five countries in 

the region, which provides it with a balanced 

corporate risk profile.

In the same manner, the financial flows of 

Enersis follow the same diversification, with 

the additional advantage that they correspond 

to generation, distribution and other related 

business, which grants a higher stability to the 

company’s financial situation.

The above has been duly considered by domestic 

and international risk rating companies. Indeed, 

such companies acknowledge that, among other 

factors, one of the strengths of the Group lies 

in its balanced investment portfolio, which has 

allowed Enersis to keep a company classification 

of “Investment Grade”, beyond the contingencies 

experienced by the region during the last years.

The corporate strategy applied by the Group 

to contain the inherent risks to an investment 

company in the electric industry, has been to 

manage the company’s assets with both prudence 

and responsibility. This policy can be observed 

during last year by the strengthening of cash, 

decrease of debts, improvement in the quality 

service index, concentration on primary activities 

and continuous monitoring of the economic and 

regulatory situation in each operating country.

A concrete measure within the global context 

of the Group’s risk proactive handling was the 

creation, during 2001, of the Enersis Group Risk 

Committee, aimed at identifying the most diverse 

risks that could affect the company and propose, 

in due time, the contention measures needed. 

This Committee has elaborated a Group’s risk 

map and it is operating under state-of-the-art 

techniques of Company Risk Management.

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 11, 2002, we have examined the Consolidated Financial 

Statements of Enersis S.A. for period between January 1 and December 31, 2002.

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.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

a.  Enersis  S.A.  (the  “Company”)  is  registered  in  the  Securities  Register  under  N°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

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.  General

The consolidated financial 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 specific corporate 

regulations of Law N°18,046, related to the formation, registration and liquidation of Chilean corporations, among others.  Certain 

amounts in the prior years’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

  The preparation of financial 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 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual 

results could differ from those estimates.

   Reclassifications – For purposes of comparision, in the 2001 of financial statements the following reclassifications were made 

in the 2001 financial statements:

  Situation in Argentina

In Argentina, at the end of 2001, as a result of the serious economic crisis, a change in the economic model and in the law 

of convertibility was implemented with the promulgation of new National Government regulations. This situation gave rise to, 

among other consequences: devaluation of the Argentinean peso with respect to the US dollar and the pesification of certain 

assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currency in said country, pesification of public service tariffs, introduction of deposit 

withdrawal limitations in financial institutions, limitations to make certain transfers abroad for capital services and financial 

loan interest without prior authorization of the Central Bank of the Republic of Argentina.

  Considering the above mentioned unstable environment, the company performed an evaluation of the recoverability of its 

investments in Argentinean companies.  Management believes that the evolution of the aforementioned measures will not 

result in significant adjustments different to those recognized in these financial statements.

b.  Periods covered 

  These financial statements reflect the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its 

operations, the changes in its shareholders’ equity and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001.

c.  Constant currency restatement

The cumulative inflation rate in Chile as measured by the Chilean Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for the two-year period ended 

December 31, 2002 was approximately 6.19%.

  Chilean GAAP requires that the financial statements be restated to reflect the full effects of loss in the purchasing power 

of the Chilean peso on the financial position and results of operations of reporting entities.  The method described below is 

based on a model that enables calculation of net inflation 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 financial statements of the Company have been price-level restated in order to reflect 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 reflect 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 reflects the effects of Chilean inflation on the monetary assets and 

liabilities held by the Company.

  The restatements were calculated using the official consumer price index of the National Institute of Statistics and based on 

the “prior month rule,” in which the inflation 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 reflect the variation in 

the general level of prices in Chile, and consequently it is widely used for financial reporting purposes.

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

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

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

intended to restate all non-monetary financial 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 inflation.

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 

reflect 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):

 e. Time deposits and marketable securities 

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

Marketable securities include investments in quoted shares they are valued at the lower of cost or maket value.  The investments 

are in both short-term highly liquid fixed rate investments shares and mutual fund units valued at cost plus interest and 

indexation or redemption vale as appropriate.

f.  Allowance for doubtful accounts

 Accounts receivable are classified as current or long-term, depending on their collection 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$115,349,531 and ThCh$52,836,900 for the years ended December 

31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  In addition, the total sum owed by the companies that have gone into bankruptcy amounting 

to ThCh$707,755 (ThCh$585,195 in 2001) is included in the bad debts estimation.

g.  Inventories

 Inventory of materials in transit, land 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.

  The costs and revenues of construction in progress are accounted for under the completed contract method in accordance 

with Technical Bulletin N°39 of the Chilean Association of Accountants and are included in current assets as their realization 

is expected in the short-term.

h.  Property, plant and equipment

  Property, plant and equipment are valued at net replacement cost as determined by the former Superintendcy of Electric and 

Gas Services (SEG) adjusted for price-level restatement in accordance with D.F.L. N°4 of 1959.  The latest valuation under 

the D.F.L. 4 was in 1980.

  Property, plant and equipment acquired after the latest valuation of net replacement cost are shown at cost, plus price-level 

restatement.  Interest on debt directly obtained to finance construction projects is capitalized during the period of construction 

(only in power generators).

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 

N°4790, dated December 11, 1985.

  The Company and its subsidiaries have evaluated the recoverability of the book value of their property, plant and equipment 

in accordance with Technical Bulletin N°33 of the Chilean Accounting Association.

  As a result of this evaluation no adjustments have been arrived at that affect the book values of these assets.

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$454,471,134 and ThCh$426,020,442 as of December 31, 2002 and 

2001, respectively.  Depreciation expense of ThCh$439,903,194 and ThCh$413,824,670 was included in Cost of sales and 

ThCh$14,567,940 and ThCh$12,195,772 were included in Administrative and selling expenses, respectively.

j.  Leased assets

The leased assets, whose contracts have financial lease characteristics, are accounted for as acquisition of propery plans and 

equipment, recognizing the total obligation and the unaccrued interest.  Said assets do not legally belong to the Company, 

for which reason, as long as the call option is not exercised, it will not be able to freely dispose of them.

k.  Power installations financed by third parties

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

l. 

Investments in related companies

Investments in related companies are included in “Other 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 11).

Investments in foreign affiliates are recorded in accordance with Technical Bulletin No.64 of the Chilean Association of 

Accountants. 

  The Company and its subsidiaries have evaluated the recoverability of the book value of their property, plant and equipment 

in accordance with Technical Bulletin N°33 of the Chilean Accounting Association.

  As a result of this evaluation no adjustments have been arrived at that affect the book values of these assets.

telephone lines and are amortized in accordance with Technical Bulletin N°55 of the Chilean Association of Accountants.

n.   Severance indemnity

The severance indemnity that the Company is obliged to pay to its employees under collective bargaining agreements is stated 

at the present value of the benefit under the vested cost method, discounted at 9.5% and assuming an average employment 

span which varies based upon years of service with the Company.

o.  Revenue recognition 

  This is revenue for electric power generation and distribution, among which are included energy supplied and unbilled at each 

year-end, valued at the selling price using the current rates and has been included in revenue from operations.  The unbilled 

amount is presented in current assets as trade receivables and the corresponding cost is included in cost of operations.  The 

Company also recognizes revenues for amounts received from highway tolls for motorized vehicles, income related to computer 

advisory services, engineering services and sale of materials.

  Enersis S.A. and its local subsidiaries have proceeded to carry out an analysis of the book values of their property, plant and 

equipment and of the companies in which it has invested abroad.  This analysis is motivated by the appearance of negative 

circumstances in the economies of the region’s countries and by the fact that the property, plant and equipment in these 

countries are measured in US dollars.  The analysis consisted of evaluating both the recoverability of property, plant and 

equipment of these companies’, and the recorded goodwill and negative goodwill, in accordance with accounting principles 

generally accepted in Chile.

  The property, plant and equipment recoverability analysis, as explained in Note 2 k, was carried out considering that when 

there is evidence that the company’s operations do not permanently have sufficient earnings to cover all costs, incluiding the 

depreciation of property, plant and equipment taken as a whole, and when the book value of said assets exceed its realization 

value, these values must be written down to recoverable amounts, charging non operating income.

The results of this analysis determined that no adjustments affecting the Company and its Subsidiaries’ book values of property, 

plant and equipment are required.

 (1)  To carry out the analysis of the recoverability of goodwill and negative goodwill on investments abroad, as explained in Note 2 u, the Company used International 

Accounting Standard (IAS) N°36.

  The analysis determined that the impairment of goodwill and negative goodwill in the companies, related to investments in 

Argentina and Brazil, is 100%, as, when comparing cash flows generated by the companies in said countries, such flows do 

not cover the recorded goodwill and negative goodwill.  Thus, these balances have been fully amortized, resulting in a higher 

net charge to income for the period of ThCh$236,434,558, net of minorities, that are included in goodwill and negative goodwill 

amortization in the income statement.

   Litigation and other legal actions:

  Enersis S.A. Individual

i.   Arbitration award (Case ICC N° 11046/KGA) substantiated before the Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of 

Commerce with headquarters in Paris, France, started with occasion of the claim lodged by Pérez Companc S.A. and PCI 

Power Edesur Holding Limited.  The claim requests that the Arbitration Court declare a sought after right of PCI Power Edesur 

Holding Limited to designate a Regular Director and an Alternate Director in the Argentinean company Distrilec Inversora 

S.A., a company holding Class “A” shares of Empresa Distribuidora Sur S.A. (Edesur S.A.), and on a subsidiary basis, for 

the event that said Court estimates that PCI Power Edesur Holding Limited lacks such right, declare that Grupo Enersis and 

Grupo Pecom, former Pérez Companc, have the same number of directors in Distrilec Inversora S.A.

  The claim was answered timely by the Company on August 4, 2000.  Together with the answer to the aforementioned claim, 

Enersis S.A. presented a reconventional claim against the claimants, that is, against Pecom S.A. and PCI Power Edesur 

Holding Limited, in order to request the annulment of various agreements entered into by the parties.  This reconvention was 

answered by the reconventional defendants on October 13, 2000.  On December 4 2000, Grupo Enersis filed its arguments 

expansion writ and the answer to the reply of the reconventional defendants.

  On December 6, 2000, the reconventional defendants, in an “Additional Statements” writ, request, among other things that, in 

case the reconventional claim lodged by Grupo Enersis is accepted, that a damages indemnity be declared in its favor.  The 

reconventional defendants have provisionally estimated this possible and required indemnity in an amount between US$180 

and US$200 million.

  On April 8, 2001 a Minutes of Mission was signed establishing the unquestionable facts, the controversial facts, the parties’ 

aims and the matters on which the Court will pronounce a judgment.  On June 14, 2001 the parties submitted their evidence 

offer writs.

  On August 27 2001 presentation of the offered witnesses’ affidavits ceased.  The testimonial audience was carried out on 

November 12, 2001, in the city of Montevideo.  On December 14, 2001 the parties presented their closing allegations and on 

December 20 the Court officially closed the Arbitration proceeding.

  On September 6, 2002 the Final award dated September 2, 2002 was notified to the parties, substantively establishing that 

Grupo Pecom and Grupo Enersis maintain the right to designate the same number of directors in the Distrilec Inversora S.A.  

Board and rejecting the contravention claim of Grupo Enersis.  It also rejects the indemnity amounting between US$180 and 

200 million claimed by Grupo Pecom against Grupo Enersis.

  The Final Award has been impugned timely through an annulment appeal filed before Uruguayan Justice on September 18, 

2002, based on that it has gross procedural vices that invalidate it. The filing of said appeal suspends compliance with the 

verdict.  On December 12, 2002 Pecom Energía answered said impugnation.

ii.  Court : Honorable resolutive commission

  Process number : 577-99

  Cause : Requirements of the “Fiscal Nacional Economico” against Enersis S.A. for the increase of ownership in Endesa-

Chile S.A., asserting the transaction has considerably increased the vertical integration in the electric sector, affecting free 

competition.

  Process status: The discussion stage has ended and the corresponding complaints have been made.  The case is now in the 

sentencing stage.  It is important to note the Commission decided not to receive the case in trial.  Additionally, the petitions 

of the Fiscalía Nacional Económica have changed since the beginning of the case, limiting the request to the inability of 

Enersis S.A. and Endesa Chile to have common directors and the necessity for these companies to hire different external 

auditors. 

  Amounts involved: Undetermined. 

  On October 30, 2002 the Resolutive Commision pronounced sentence on the case, and which is summarized as follows: 

a)  “The position of principal or alternate director of Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., or of some of them with 

Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., shall be held by different and independent individuals. A director 

will be regarded as independent when holding positions or carrying out employment or activities in a position of dependence 

of any of these companies or of any of its directors; and 

b)  “The external audit of Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., and Chilectra S.A. or Compañía Eléctrica del 

Río Maipo S.A., which, pursuant to current open stock company legislation, will be performed by different external auditing 

firms, having any relationship or tie of any nature between them. The same stipulation will be applied should the bylaws of 

said companies contemplate the appointment of account inspectors;”

c)  “By the exercise of its official faculties, the following measures will be adopted and in effect until the issue by the Resolutive 

Commission of a resolution to the contrary: 

“Enersis S.A., Elesur S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., 

may not enter into or execute any operation the objective of which would be the merger of the companies controlled by the 

Enersis group, whose activity would be the generation and distribution of electricity, with Enersis S.A. having to maintain the 

development of both segments separately, through different companies representing independent business units; and” 

“Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., shall continue 

to be subject to supervision of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance and comply with provisions applicable to open 

stock companies, even if they have ceased to have the staus of open stock companies;”

d)  “In exercising the powers established in Decree Law Nº 211 article 17, letter b), this Resolutive Commission issues the following 

general instructions which any individual who, by application of  Ministry of Mining Electric Code article 240, Decree Nº 317, 

of 1998,  must publicly open to bid  the supply and load  in the terms of said norm:

e)  All those companies, associations, or company consortiums with existing or potential supply capacity will be able to participate 

in the supply bidding processes;

f)  The bidding conditions shall allow the applicants to present bids for the total amount of the supply intended to be contracted 

or for a part of the energy blocks and load open to bidding, and will include in their entirety the contracts which will be signed 

by the parties to execute the delivery of the supply bid; and,

g)  The receipt and opening of bids will be public.  The bidding conditions to be established, as well as the result of the awarding, 

shall be reported to the Economic National Legal Department simultaneously upon the execution of said acts.

h)  Any other measure of a cautionary or precautionary nature taken in these cases are invalidated in particular, that ordered in 

Resolution N° 542 numeral 1, dated May 10, 1999, as evidenced on page 132 of the precautionary measures record.”

  On November 6, 2002, Messrs. Briones and Bosselin filed an appeal as a complaint against the aforementioned sentence, 

which is currently in the procedural phase. Together with filing the appeal, the petitioners requested that an injunction order 

be decreed, which was issued on November 14, 2002, thus suspending the sentence’s effects.

  Amount: Not determined.

iii.  Accusation filed by Empresa Nacional de Telecomunicaciones S.A. (ENTEL) before the Resolutive Commission against Enersis 

S.A., started by presentment dated May 13, 2002.  The aim was to inform the Commission about the data transmission services 

provided through the electric networks by Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Limitada, Enersis S.A.’s subsidiary, so as 

it took the necessary protection measures to guarantee free competition.

The Commission requested the Telecommunications Under-department some information, which was provided through a report 

dated May 31, 2002.

  On June 5, 2002, Enersis S.A. answered ENTEL’s presentment, requesting that the precautionary measures requested by ENTEL 

be rejected because they are contrary to law and unnecessary and, also, because if they were accepted they would establish 

an entry barrier to the industry and postpone the investments necessary for rendering the aforementioned services.

The issuance of a report by the Economic National Legal Department is pending, as well as the resolution of the precautionary 

measures requested by ENTEL.

  On July 19 of the current year, the Resolutive Commission acknowledged the Economic Legal National Department report, 

resolving to thoroughly investigate the matter and rejecting the precautionary measured requested.

  On last September 25, the case was heard and the trial turned into judicial decision term.

Complejo Manufacturero de Equipos Telefónicos S.A.C.I., CMET, against Enersis S.A.. The appeal was filed on 08/27/02 by 

CMET against Enersis S.A., which seemed to be based on the fact that Enersis S.A., through various acts, facts or omissions, 

would have breached article 19 N°21 of the Political Constitution of the Republic, preventing CMET from developing its 

commercial activities.

  On 09.17.02, Enersis S.A. informed to Court,  as requested, carrying out all the discharges it deemed reasonable in accordance 

to law, expressly rejected CMET’s accusations because of their unfounded nature. 

  To date, the appeal is pending for its hearing and judgment, which is estimated to take place during March.

of General Law of Electric Services concerning indemnities payment for supply interruptions during electric rationing periods, 

filed before the Third Court of Civil First Instance for Santiago, list 3140-2000.

  With the promulgation of the Supreme Ordinance N° 287, of 1999, the Ministry of Economy, Development and Reconstruction 

that established the electric rationing between June 12 and August 31 1999 in the Central Interconnected System and the 

modification of article 99 bis of D.F.L. N°1/82 of Mining, General Law of Electric Services introduced by Law 19.613 of June 

8, 1999, the electric power generation companies that, in case of generation short fall due to either prolonged failures of 

power plants or droughts, are not able to satisfy their distributor or final customers’ normal consumption or submitted to price 

regulation, were forced to pay compensations or indemnities to those customers in accordance with the regulations and 

procedures that are established in the rationing decree. 

  This situation affected ENDESA and its subsidiaries Pehuenche and Pangue. 

In this respect, the declarative trial of mere certainty has been started, among others, an action in which Court is requested 

to declare that, in accordance with Art.99 bis of D.F.L. 1/82, it is ENDESA’s obligation to pay their distributor customers the

compensations or indemnities established in that provision only for the days and hours that during the validity of the rationing 

Decree N° 287, electricity supply suspensions occurred and which affected those customers. 

  The Treasury has sustained in the trial that the indemnities should be paid for the rationing period.

  Review of legal contingency 

  On August 22, ENDESA and CELTA were notified of a claim interposed by Compañía Punta de Lobos S.A. before the 30th 

Court for Santiago, against ENDESA, CELTA and TREASURY OF CHILE. 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

135

134

134

 
 
 
In the claim, a request is made declare the absolute annulment of the assignment and transfer or of any juridical act carried out 

by ENDESA to CELTA, regardless the capacity and object the real estate properties have had due to the nature or adherence 

that comprise them or as integral part of the marine concession granted to ENDESA in Punta Patache’s sector. 

  A request is also made to declare the expiration of the concession because of ENDESA’s incurring in a series of serious 

infractions to the legislation that regulates marine concessions and that are grounds for expiration and therefore the entirety 

of the construction built on the concession’s lands must be incorporated at no cost to the equity of the Treasury of Chile and 

that Compañía Punta de Lobos is entitled to obtain compensation, prize or recognition for 20% of the liquid value of said 

common property for the recovery, for the Treasury of said assets. 

   ENDESA sustains that the claim is unfounded since no disposal act of the marine concession of ENDESA to CELTA has 

ever existed or of the assets comprising the concession; that the constructions or improvements carried out by CELTA in the 

concession’s assets, have been executed to comply with a mandate granted by its parent company ENDESA to act on its 

own behalf; that the claimant lacks juridical interest in annulment it requests since it is not an integral part of the concession 

contract. 

  Amount or repercussion of the litigation: the litigation does not have a specified amount, but in case the claim is successful, 

especially if the marine concession expiration is declared, the pier’s facilities would be affected, which are worth US$15,000,000, 

that would become Treasury’s equity, also seriously affecting the operation of Central Térmica Tarapacá. 

  Status of the Proceeding: On August 28, 2002, the claimant obtained a Court decree as a precautionary measure, prohibiting 

the execution of acts and contracts on the marine concession granted to ENDESA and on the properties by nature or for 

adherence that comprise or are an integral part of this concession. 

  Main Trial Settlement:

  On August 9, 2002, the plaintiff filed with distribution to the court of appeals for Santiago, the contract annulment claim, in the 

ordinary trial against Endesa, Celta and the Treasury of Chile, a claim that entered the court on September 12, 2002.

  On September 9, 2002, ENDESA and CELTA opposed dilatory exceptions consisting in the Court’s incompetence to hear 

the claim. A) as regards the expiration declaration, this being an exclusive competence matter of the Ministry of National 

Defense B) as regards the annulment declaration, as a different sanction is contemplated by the law in the event of breach to 

be applied by an authority other than that of Courts and C) as regards the prize or recognition the, being an exclusive faculty 

of the President of the Republic. 

  On October 4, the Court accepted the incompetence exception with respect to the expiration and recognition, maintaining 

its competence regarding the annulment action and orders the answering of the claim. On October 10, 2002: The claimant 

appeals. On this same date Endesa and Celta appeals. 

  On October 14, the Court provides: On page 106: the appeal is accepted only in returnable effect. On page 122: the appeal 

is accepted only in returnable effect. 

  On this same date the custody of the file is ordered. 

  On October 14 ENDESA and CELTA answer the claim. On October 15, 2002: The claimant attaches documents.

  Hidroeléctrica el Chocón S.A.

  Federal Public Revenues Administration – General Tax Services

The Federal Public Revenues Administration – General Tax Services (FPRA-GTS) notified the Company for alleged tax evasion 

on revenues earned between tax year 1993 and 1994, due to deduction of certain start-up and financing 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 is equivalent to approximately US$9.7 million, which does 

not include accrued interest.  The Company is disputing these charges.

   On December 28, 2000 the FPRA-GTS notified the Company of Resolution N°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 financing expenses, it prescribed on 

January 1, 2001.

  On December 28, 2000 the Company was notified of Resolution N°204/00, which officially 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 fine 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 Official Bulletin.  They

invoked the inconstitutionality of the above-mentioned regulation and the application of decree 493/95, which condoned interest 

and fines for obligations or infractions overdue or committed as of July 31, 1995.  On February 20, 2001, the Company filed 

an appeal before the Fiscal Court of the Nation.

  Royalties

  On June 26, 2000, the Company was notified 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 ThCh$335,636.

  Additionally, on September 27, 2000 the Company was notified 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 notification from the Provincial Revenue Services of the Province of 

Buenos Aires of the beginning of an official determination for ThCh$404,145 (amount that does not include interest or fines), 

for taxes on gross income for the fiscal 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 produce a significant adverse effect on the Company’s shareholders’ equity and income as of December 

31, 2002.

  Hidroinvest S.A.

  On December 27, 2000, the AFIP-DGI served Hidroinvest S.A.  Resolution Nº 519/00 which officially determined the amount 

of Th$831,397 as income tax for the 1993 period that Hidroinvest S.A. was presumably to pay over the difference between the 

acquisition and transfer values of the bonds delivered to the National State for having obtained a benefit in said operation, since 

a greater debt than the stock purchase price was paid and Th$1,788,336 of compensatory interest.  In addition, the AFIP-DGI 

applied a fine of Th$581,978 on Hidroinvest S.A. for an alleged infringement of Art. 45 of Law Nº11,683.  On February 19, 

2001, Hidroinvest S.A. filed an appeal at the Nation’s Tax Court.  On September 12, 2002, Hidroinvest S.A. was notified of the 

registration of the General Asset Prohibition on the company’s assets within the scope of a precautionary proceeding started 

by the AFIP-DGI in virtue of what is established under Law Nº11,683 article 111, as a result of the obligation to deliver the 

sums mentioned above.  An appeal injunction against the resolution which decided the origin of the precautionary measure, 

was filed, appeal that was granted on November 25, 2002.

  The advisors to Hidroinvest S.A. believe that it is unlikely that said matters might produce a significant adverse impact on the 

equity and income position of the company as of December 31, 2002.

  Central Costanera S.A.

  As for the debt corresponding to the “Agreement related to work order Nº 4322 (the “Agreement”), from the enforcement of Law 

Nº25,561, Decree Nº214/02 and its regulatory provisions, the obligation of Central Costanera S.A. has been “pesified” upon 

the basis of the exchange rate of one peso to one US dollar.  Decree Nº53/03 of January 10, 2003 excludes some obligations 

from the “pesification”.  Should the Secretary of Energy understand that the mentioned Decree include the obligations arising 

from the Agreement, Central Costanera S.A. will request the declaration of unconstitutionality of Decree Nº53/03 which, if it 

did not have the expected results, would oblige Central Costanera S.A. to pay the sums owed as a result of the Agreement 

in US dollars.  This contingency would imply, at December 2002, a decrease in net income and an increase in indebtedness 

of ThCh$26,228,000, approximately.

In the company’s legal counsels’ opinion, it is very unlikely that the above will have a negative impact on the Company’s equity 

and income. 

  Edegel S.A.

i.  From November, 2000, to October, 2001, the tax authority reviewed the income tax and turnover tax (IGV) of the Subsidiary 

for the periods corresponding to 1995 to 1999.  As a result of said review, in December 2001, the National Superintendency 

of Tax Management (SUNAT) informed the Subsidiary of its findings through several resolutions to Set Fines, related to the 

income tax and the IGV for the periods under review. 

  From the concepts indicated, the amount rejected and not paid by the Subsidiary mainly refers to the intent of the Tax 

Administration to apply Law Nº27034 Seventh Transitory Final Provision and, therefore, not recognize, as of the 1999 period, 

the Subsidiary’s right to deduct, as tax expense, the depreciation corresponding to the greater assigned value resulting from 

the revaluation of its assets due to the purchase of the Subsidiary taken place in 1995, under Law Nº26,283, even when the 

Subsidiary has a juridical stability agreement that has stabilized the income tax regime until 2005.  The total estimated amount 

for said item amounts to $60,941,002 (ThUS$84,804).

  On February 11, 2002, the Subsidiary started an arbitration proceeding against the Peruvian State, represented by CONITE, as 

provided under clause eight of the Juridical Stability Agreement.  On April 22, 2002, the Arbitration Court issued the arbitration 

award through which the complaints of the Subsidiary relating to the inapplicability of the Seventh Transitory Final Provision 

of Law N°27024, are declared as substantiated, pursuant to the juridical stability agreement subscribed with the Peruvian 

State.  Therefore, the Arbitration Court recognizes the Subsidiary’s right to deduct from the income tax base the depreciation 

corresponding to the higher value assigned by the revaluation in previous years. 

  Although the arbitration award granted, the contentious tax proceeding continued, reason by which, on July 12, 2002, the 

Subsidiary filed a remedy of appeal before the Tax Court against the Resolutions to Set and Apply Fines related to income 

taxes (1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 periods). 

In November, 2002, the Tax Court issued its pronouncement, indicating that:  (i) SUNAT will have to carry out a new review 

and issue a new pronouncement considering what was ruled in the award dated April 22, 2002, which was favorable to 

Edegel S.A.A., and which relates to the deduction of the depreciation corresponding to the revaluation of fixed assets, and 

(ii) it ruled against in other matters determined by the SUNAT.

  As for the items which are to be the subject of a new review carried out by SUNAT, Edegel’s management and its legal counsels 

believe that the final outcome of said review will not result in additional liabilities other than those recorded at December 31, 

2002. 

ii.  Lawsuits filed by (ESSALUD) for payment of contributions under Law Decrees 22482, 19990 and 18846 amounting to 

ThUS$4,210 (equivalent to ThCh$3,025,000).  In the opinion of management and their legal counsel, these proceedings will 

be resolved in favor of Edegel S.A..

iii.  Resolutions of Determination and fines in the amount of ThUS$581 (equivalent to ThCh$417,512) were issued against the 

Talleres Moyopampa S.A. for which Edegel S.A. has filed the corresponding complaints and appeals when the referred company 

split.   These complaints and appeals are pending final resolution by the Tax Administration.  It is the opinion of management 

and their legal advisors that these actions will not have a significant negative effect, individually or jointly, on the financial 

position, operating income, or liquidity of Edegel S.A..

iv.  Complaint filed by Edegel’s workers union, which seeks that the percentage of participation, which the law sets at 5%, be 

raised to 10%, in this way duplicating the payment of these profits for fiscal years 1994, 1995 and 1996 by approximately 

ThUS$4,667 (equivalent to ThCh$3,353,753).  On August 24, 2000 the sentence was issued in the first petition, declaring the 

action unfounded.  By means of the sentence dated December 12, 2000 (notified November 13, 2001) the Second Labor Court 

Room of the Superior Court of Lima annulled the first petition sentence which declared the syndicate’s action unfounded.  The 

Company filed a motion to vacate against said sentence, which was not admitted, whereby the file will return to the court for 

the issuing of a new sentence.  In the opinion of the management and its external legal advisors, the final resolution would 

be favorable to the Subsidiary, for which reason no liabilities for these items have been recorded at December 31 2001 and 

2002.

  Central Hidroeléctrica de Betania S.A.

  Presumed income-tax contingency – In 1997, 1998 and 1999, Betania recorded tax losses and did not pay taxes through the 

presumptive income system based on a concept of the national Tax Administration (DIAN) of 1995.  Said concept was modified 

in 1999 and ratified by the State Council in 2001, in that presumed income tax should have been paid for the presumptive 

income.  Consequently, the DIAN, on this matter, instructed Betania to make the appropriate correction to income forms for 

the years 1997 and 1998. The approximate amount of the presumptive income contingency for 1997 and 1998 amounts to 

Th$25,118,828 (including interest for Th$10,524,298 and fines for Th$8,987,422). Betania considers that DIAN’s intent is 

not substantiated. Therefore, on September 13, 2002, a claim was filed at the Administrative Court for Huila, since the DIAN 

resolved against the appeal for review filed by Betania regarding the official income payment for 1997. By 1998, the DIAN 

has not replied to the appeal for review filed by the company.

  At December 31, 2002, Betania carried a provision of Th$6,521,895 to cover this contingency. 

  Tax contingency for ordinary income – The National Tax Department issued the official liquidation relating to income tax for 

1997 and 1998, based on the net income for the ordinary system, disregarding some tax deductions. 

  The estimated amount of the ordinary tax contingency is $12,173,619 and $47,836,345 for 1997 and 1998, respectively, 

including taxes, fines and estimated interest on arrears. 

  The Company, for 1997 and 1998, has been audited for both the calculation of its regular income as well as the presumed 

income, reason by which it is important to note that only the higher of these two items becomes taxable and pays income 

upon which tax must be determined considering appropriate charges, fines and interest.  

ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

141

140
140

 
 
 
  Since the higher of the two is the tax base, it is impossible to pay contingencies on both, as the presumed income will only apply 

as taxable income as long as it is higher than the ordinary income determined through the tax netting method on earnings. 

In addition, for 1999, the DIAN issued the official liquidation on the income tax return, reason for which the company 

filed an appeal for review on December 20, 2002.  The estimated amount of the ordinary income contingency amounts to 

$19,398,625.

  Other contingencies

  At December 31, 2002, the amount of the claims for administrative, civil and labor litigations amount to ThCh$5,590,769, 

and others for undetermined amounts.  Based on the evaluation of the probability of success in defending these cases, at 

December 31, 2002, ThCh$1,005,512 has been provided to cover probable losses resulting from these contingencies. 

  Management believes that the outcome of the litigations corresponding to the unprovisioned portion will favorable to the 

Companies and will not cause significant liabilities to be accounted for, or that, if any, these will not significantly affect its 

financial position.

  Restrictions:

  The Company does not have any management restrictions or financial covenants during the years ended December 31, 2001 

and 2002. 

  Endesa S.A.

  On a consolidated level, Endesa must comply with financial covenants and requirements derived from loan agreements with 

financial institutions, among which the following are emphasized:  

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

143

142

142

 
 
 
•   Gross Cash Flows equal to or greater than 13% of the average consolidated financial debt for terms beyond one year, 

plus short-term bank debt if its term is extendable to more than one year, obtained according to the debt reflected in the 

consolidated financial statements at the closing date of the last four quarters.  

•   Gross Cash Flow equal to or greater than 1.9 times the consolidated financial expenses, obtained according to the expenses 

reflected in the consolidated financial statements at the closing date of the last four quarters.

•   The financial debt for terms greater than one year, plus short-term bank debt if its term is extendable to more than one 

year, cannot exceed 58% of the sum of shareholders’ equity, plus minority interests, plus the financial debt for terms greater 

than one year and short-term bank debt.

  As of December 31, 2001 and 2002 al these obligations have been met.

  Pehuenche S.A.

  The Santander Investment Bank Ltd. and the Chase Manhattan Bank N.A., in relation to loans granted to the Company, place 

obligations and restrictions on Pehuenche S.A., some of which are of a financial nature, such as: long-term financial liabilities 

not exceeding 1.5 times the shareholders’ equity, and a minimum company equity of UF9,500,000. 

Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A.

  With the bond placement by the subsidiary, concession holder Autopista Del Sol S.A., Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A., concurred 

as “Sponsor” to the contracts of said transaction, committing itself to comply with the restrictions to the transfer of its interest 

in the bond issuer. Also, Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A., is not able to carry out major changes in its assets without the written 

authorization of the insurance company guaranteeing the issuance (FSA Inc). Likewise, the shares of the concession holding 

company Autopista de Sol S.A. owned by Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A. were pledged in favor of FSA Inc.

  Sociedad Concesionaria Autopista del Sol S.A.

In virtue of the bond issuance agreement, the Company must comply with financial ratios based on the generation of operating 

flows. In addition, the Company must request the authorization of the insurer to obtain funding other than the current sources. 

These rations are compliant at December 31, 2002.

  Other restrictions

  As a common and habitual practice for some bank loan debts and also in capital markets, a substantial portion of Enersis S.A.’s 

financial indebtedness is subject to cross-failure provisions.  Some failures of Endesa-Chile or of its subsidiaries, if not corrected 

in time (as to those specific provisions allowing a period of time to correct the problem), might result in the cross-failure at 

Endesa-Chile and Enersis S.A. level., and, in this case, some sixty percent of Enersis S.A.’s consolidated liabilities might 

eventually become on demand. On the other hand, certain failures of a distribution subsidiary, if not corrected in time, would 

not affect Endesa-Chile, and the amount at risk of Enersis S.A.’s consolidated liabilities would decrease by thirty percent.  

  Some loan agreements include clauses should the risk category of the debt expressed in US dollars fall below the “investment 

grade” level, according to the risk classification agency determining the applicable margin of the interest rate (which, for practical 

purposes hereof, is S & P).  Should the long-term US dollar unsecured debt fall into a “non-investment grade” category, or 

below BBB – according to the nomenclature used by S & P, then, the obligation to prepay all the outstanding principal existing 

under these loans within the following sixty days, unless agreed upon otherwise by the parties, arises. At December 31, 2002,

  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

  Enersis S. A.

  On December 10, 2002, a Special General Shareholders’ Meeting of Cerj, an Enersis S.A. subsidiary, was held, where a 

capital increase was approved for Cerj, in an amount of ThUS$105,000, approximately. 

This increase took place on January 10, 2003, through the issuance and subscription of 770,833,333,333 new ordinary shares, 

at a value of R$0.48 in one thousand-share batches, totaling the ThUS$100,000 approved at the Meeting, with the Company’s 

capital amounting to ThUS$259,085.

  With this operation, the percentage of direct participation held by Enersis S.A., through its agency, will increase from 20.38% 

to 40.03%.

  As a relevant event on January 15, 2003, it was reported that Enersis S.A.’s Board of Directors, at a special meeting held on 

that day, agreed to take note that the Company will make accounting adjustments and special charges in its balance sheet 

for its investments in its Chilean and foreign subsidiaries for a total amount of US$387 million, in its equivalence in Chilean 

pesos, these special adjustments being reflected in income for 2002. 

  Such special adjustments and charges have no impact on the Company’s cash flow and will be reflected in Enersis’ 2002 

financial statements.  The special adjustments and charges made as well as the provisions made at November 30, 2002, are 

detailed as follows: (the figures shown correspond to the impact on Enersis S.A.’s financial statements):

  Generation:

Brazil 

  Argentina 

US$ 60 million

Total Generation 

US$ 83 million

It must be noted that, of the US$387 million, US$329 million will be from the acceleration of the amortization of the net balance 

of negative goodwill and goodwill of investments made in Brazil and Argentina in generation and distribution. 

  Subtracted from the figure above are the provisions made at November 30, 2002, as shown below:

US$ l6 million 

US$ 97 million

In view of the above, and having considered these provisions, the effect of the adjustments and special charges on the 

company’s income will amount to the equivalent in Chilean pesos of US$290 million, approximately.

In the period between January 1, 2003 and the date of presentation of these financial statements, no other significant event 

that might affect their presentation has occurred.

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 financial 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 stockholders’ equity.  

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

Board in the United States.

a.  Inflation accounting

  The cumulative inflation rate in Chile as measured by the Consumer Price Index for the three-year period ended December 

31, 2002 was approximately 11.2%.  Pursuant to Chilean GAAP, the Company’s financial statements recognize certain effects 

of inflation.  The inclusion of price-level adjustments in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is considered 

appropriate under the prolonged inflationary conditions affecting the Chilean economy even though the cumulative inflation 

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 inflation 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 financial 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 (bb) 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 a 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 identifiable 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 (bb) below.

d.  Intangibles

  Under Chilean GAAP, the Company has recorded intangible assets relating to the transfer of revalued assets which originate 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 (bb) 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 financial 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 financial 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 financial 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 defined as any difference between the financial 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.

  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 (bb) below.

f.  Severance indemnity 

  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 

ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

157

156
156

 
 
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, 2001 and 2002, 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 inflation 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 inflation over a long-term period.  

  Under US 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 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 significantly from the general inflation rate.  

The application of U.S. GAAP would no have produced results materially different from the acceptable method under Chilean 

GAAP.

g.  Pension and post-retirement benefits 

The Company has obligations related to complementary pension plan benefits and other post-retirement benefits as stipulated 

in collective bargaining agreements.  Under U.S. GAAP, post-retirement employee benefits have been accounted for in 

accordance with SFAS No. 87 and SFAS No. 106.  The effects of accounting for post-retirement benefits under U.S. GAAP 

have been presented in paragraph (bb).

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 (bb) below.  The principal U.S. GAAP adjustments affecting the Company’s equity investees are as 

follows:

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

(b)   Reversal of complementary accounts (asset or liability) recorded as a transitional provision as of January 1, 2000.

(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 and long-lived assets

(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 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 form 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 purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net identifiable assets and liabilities acquired are recorded as 

goodwill.  Up until December 31, 2001, the Company amortized 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 34 II 

(o)).  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company discounted amortizing goodwill on January 1, 2002.  The effects of 

recording the different amortization periods and reversing the amortization of goodwill for 2002 are included in paragraph 

(bb) below.

(ii) Under Chilean GAAP, the Company has evaluated the carrying amount of goodwill net of negative goodwill for impairment.  

The measurement of the impairment loss was based on the fair value of the investment which the Company determined 

using a discounted cash flow approach and recent comparable transactions in the market.  In order to estimate fair value, 

the Company made assumptions about future events that are highly uncertain at the time of estimation.  The results of 

this analysis showed that the goodwill and negative goodwill associated with investments in Argentina and Brazil were 

impaired because estimated future discounted cash flows were not sufficient to recover goodwill and negative goodwill. 

During 2002, under Chilean GAAP the Company recorded a net charge related to its investments in Central Costanera S.A., 

Hidroeléctrica El Chocón S.A., Hidroinvest S.A., Lajas Inversora S.A., Central Eléctrica Cachoeira Dourada S.A., Cía. de 

Electricidade do Rio de Janeiro S.A., Coelce S.A., Distrelec Inversora S.A., Edesur S.A., and Investluz S.A., in the amount 

of ThCh$236,434,558 net minority interest, to write-off all amounts of goodwill and negative goodwill, see Note 13.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, (SFAS No. 

142) as of January 1, 2002.  SFAS 142 applies to all goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination.  

Under the new standard, all goodwill, including that acquired before initial application of the standard, and indefinite-lived 

intangible assets are not amortized, as of the effective date but must be tested for impairment at least annually.  The 

transitional impairment test required by the standard was performed and no adjustment for impairment was required.  

However, based on subsequent testing of the Company’s investments in Argentina and Brazil performed as of December 

31, 2002, it was determined that these investments were impaired.  The following net effects are included in the net income 

(loss) and shareholders’ equity reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (bb) below:

(a)  the reversal of goodwill amortization related to reporting units that were not found to be impaired under U.S. GAAP for 

the year ended December 31, 2002, and adjustment of amortization goodwill which is different in amount because of 

goodwill basis differences in 2000 and 2001.

(b)  the adjustment to record the reversal of the impairment recorded under Chilean GAAP during 2002, which is different 

in amount because of goodwill basis differences,

(c)  the adjustment to record the impairment under US GAAP from investment in Argentina and Brazil.

The adjustment as of each year are as follows:

(iii) The company has considered important factors, which could trigger an impairment review, such the following:

•   Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

•   Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business; and

•   Significant negative industry or economic trends

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

Disposed Of’ during 2000 and 2001, which was superceded by SFAS No.144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposa1 of 

Long-Lived Assets” beginning in 2002, the Company eva1uates the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and other 

long-lived assets, in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying business. These 

standards require 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.  Impairment is recorded based on an estimate of future discounted cash flows, 

as compared to current carrying amounts.  For the years ended December 31, 2000, 2001, and 2002, no additional amounts 

were recorded for impairment under U.S. GAAP, except for adjustments for this concept recorded under Chilean GAAP in the 

subsidiaries Centrais Eléctrica Cachoeira Dourada S.A. and Inmobiliaria Manso de Velasco Limitada, which are included in 

other non-operating expenses (see Note 23). This amount are reclassified to operating income for US GAAP purposes.

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 upon adoption of SFAS 142 in January 1, 2002 

the excess will no longer be deferred but recognized immediately in income.  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 and the reversal of negative goodwill write-offs described in paragraph (i), which 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

161

160

160

 
 
 
did not meet the U.S. GAAP impairment criteria for long-lived assets under SFAS No. 144 described above, and conforming 

depreciation methods are included in paragraph (bb) 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 finance 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 financing costs and the related depreciation 

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

l.  Accumulated deficit 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 (bb) 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 (bb) below to reflect the unrecorded dividend liability for 2001, whenever and to the 

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

In April 2002, the meeting of shareholders decided, that dividends would consist of the income from normal company operations 

defined as income before amortization of negative goodwill in the income statement.  Therefore, the distributable profit at 

December 31, 2001 was zero, necessitating a reversal of the prior year accrual under U.S. GAAP.

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 identified with the 

supervision of the construction of specific projects.  The effects of eliminating capitalized general and administrative expenses 

and the related depreciation for U.S. GAAP purposes are shown below under paragraph (bb).

o.  Involuntary employee termination benefits

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

involuntary employees termination benefits 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, at that time in order to recognize 

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

includes notification to employees prior to the balance sheet date.  As of December 31, 2002, this requirement had not been 

met.  The effect of eliminating the accrued liability recognized is presented in paragraph (bb) below.

ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

161

160

p.  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 Intemational Limited, Chilectra S.A. and Chilectra IntemationaI 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.  As 

described in paragraph (i), the Company determined goodwill amounts recorded in investments in Argentina were impaired as 

of December 31, 2002, thus the adjustment in selling price of investment is a basis difference between Chilean and U.S. GAAP 

that will be eliminated after the impairment charge is recorded.  The effects of the adjustments to conform to U.S. GAAP are 

included under paragraph (bb) below.

q.  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 specifically 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 (bb) below.

r.  Organizational and start-up costs 

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

Chilean GAAP and amortized.  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 the difference are included in paragraph (bb) below.

s.  Translation of Financial Statements of Investments Outside of Chile

  Under Chilean GAAP, in accordance with Technical Bulletin 64 (“B.T. 64”) the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries that 

operate in countries exposed to significant 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, Perú, Brazil, 

and Colombia all meet the criteria of foreign subsidiaries that operate in countries exposed to significant 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 fluctuations 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 reflected 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 reflected 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$39,503,788, ThCh$23,247,278 and ThCh$180,045,972 for the years 

ended December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002, 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 financial statements required by Chilean GAAP.  Inclusion of inflation and translation 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

163

162

162

 
 
 
effects in the financial statements is considered appropriate under the inflationary 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.

t.  Derivative instruments

  Under Chilean GAAP, forward foreign exchange contracts and currency swaps are used to hedge existing balance sheet risks 

or “fair value” hedges, while interest swaps and collars are used to hedge against future transaction risks or “cash flow” hedges.  

Fair value hedges are recorded at fair values with losses recorded at the time of their estimation and gains deferred until the 

transaction date or to the extent losses have been previously recorded, while gains and losses from cash flow hedges are 

deferred as either an assets or a liability until the transaction date.  The hedging criteria and documentation requirements under 

Chilean GAAP are less onerous than U.S. GAAP.  Realized gains and losses are recorded in “Other non-operating income and 

expense”.

  Prior to January 1, 2001. under U.S. GAAP, contracts that were designated and effective as hedges of existing assets and 

liabilities were recorded at the closing spot exchange rate and included in earnings with the initial discount or premium is amortized 

over the life of the contract as interest expense.  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 financial statements and accordingly were not previously included 

in paragraph (u) below.

  Currently under U.S. GAAP, the accounting for derivative instruments is described in SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Certain 

Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities” (SFAS No. 133) and other complementary rules and amendments.  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 specific 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 required 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 accounting 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 modified after January 1, 1999.

  SFAS No. 133, in part, allows special hedge accounting for “fair value” and “cash flow” 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 flow” hedging instrument be reported as a component of other comprehensive income and be reclassified 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 financial 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.

ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

163

162

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

therefore they are not reflected in the financial statements.  For U.S. GAAP purposes, certain implicit or explicit terms included 

in host contracts that affect some or all of the cash flows 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 financial 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 flows, 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 significant impact on the estimate of fair values disclosed. As a result such fair value 

amounts are subject to significant volatility and are highly dependent on the quality of the assumptions used.

  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 (e) 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 fluctuations.

  The effect of adopting SFAS No. 133 as of January 1, 2001, resulted in a cumulative effect on net income of ThCh$21,015,046 

net of deferred taxes for ThCh$46,575,921 and minority interest for ThCh$62,621,442, which is presented under the caption 

“Cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles”, the effects of the adjustment with respect to financial derivatives, 

commodity derivatives, and embedded derivatives for the year ended December 31, 2002 is included in the net income and 

shareholders’ equity reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (bb) below.

u.  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 identifiable 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 shareholder’s equity and net income for the years presented is included in paragraph 

(bb) below.

v.  Sale of subsidiaries 

  This 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.

w.  Deferred income

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

fiber optic network after installation in the Company’s electricity distribution system.  Under Chilean GAAP, the contributed 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

assets were recorded at their fair market value, with a corresponding credit recognized as income in 2000.  Under U.S. GAAP, 

this item.  This adjustment reverses the gain under Chile GAAP and records the amortization of the deferred income under U.S. 

GAAP.  The effect on shareholders’ equity and net income for the years presented is included in (bb) below.  The amount was 

deferred and amortize over the life of the related service contract.

x.  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 reasonable, 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 financial 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 Janeiro (Cerj) and Companhia Energética do Ceará (Coalce), are subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 

71 beginning on January 1, 2001.  With the new regulations issued by the National Agency of Electrictric 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 perform a rate review on an annual basis.  If ANEEL excludes all or part of a cost from 

recovery, that portion of the deferred regulatory assets 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 that each distribution company is permitted to defer and pass 

on the 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 uncertainly 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 Regulated 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 (bb) below.

y.  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 goodwill for the proportional minority interest acquired as the 

ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

165

164
164

 
 
 
difference between the purchase price and the carrying values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Under U.S. 

GAAP, the proportional fair value of the assets acquired compared to the purchase price is recorded as goodwill. The effect on 

shareholders’ equity is included in (bb) below.

z.  Assets held for sale

  Under Chilean GAAP the Company records divestitures of investments or assets in the year in which they occur.  Under U.S. 

GAAP, in accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets for which there is a plan to sell the assets within the following year, 

shall be disclosed separately from the Company’s other assets, provided all the criteria are met. Additionally, long-lived assets 

classified as held for sale must be measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  Long-lived 

assets shall not be depreciated while they are classified as held for sale, while interest and other expenses attributable to the 

liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale shall continue to be accrued.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to sell a number of the Company’s assets during October 2002. The following 

assets to be sold meet the definition of segments, reporting units or long-lived assets held for sale:

•   Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. 

•   Central Canutillar power plant

•   Gas Atacama transmission lines

•   CELTA transmission lines

•   Infraestructura 2000 S.A.

  The Company evaluated the carrying values of all assets held for sale, recording a loss to the extent that one of the assets’ 

fair values less cost to sell was lower than the carrying value of those assets.  Additionally, the Company ceased recording 

depreciation expense once the assets met the qualification criteria of held for sale, which varied from October to December 

2002, no impairment was required to these assets as of December 31, 2002. The effect of these adjustments is included in the 

net income and shareholders’ equity reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (bb) below.

aa. Elimination of discontinued operations

  Under Chilean GAAP, no restatement to the financial statement information presented in previous years is required after a 

divestiture has occurred.  Under US GAAP, in accordance with SFAS No. 144, the discontinued operations of a component 

must be retroactively separated from the continuing operations of an entity, when the operations and cash flows of a component 

which will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of an entity as a result of a disposal transaction will not have any significant 

continuing involvement in the operations of a component after the disposal transaction.

The Company evaluated whether any of the assets held for sale met either criteria, noting that the transmission lines and power 

plant are not components, as they are included as a part of larger cash flow generating groups, and the operations of these 

assets cannot be separated from their respective groups. Additionally, Endesa-Chile plans to continue generating revenues 

from Canutillar through a purchase power agreement, management agreement, and a transmission leasing arrangement with 

the future buyer. Infraestructura 2000 S.A. does meet the conditions for discontinued operations because it has distinct and 

separable financial results from operations and cash flows. As a result of the disposal the results of operations of the reporting 

unit have been eliminated from the ongoing operations of Enersis, as Enersis will not have any continuing involvement in the 

operations of Infraestructura 2000 S.A. after it is sold. The Rio Maipo facility was classified as “held for sale” on December 31, 

2002. In April, 2003, the Company sold facility.  In accordance with SFAS 144, the Company determined that the Rio Maipo did 

not must the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operations as of the Enersis will have a significant continuing involvement 

through continuing sales to Rio Maipo’ though its subsidiary Endesa – Chile.  The effect of restating discontinued operations is 

included in the net income reconciliation to U.S. GAAP under paragraph (bb) below.

f.  Concentration of risk:

  The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any unusual credit risk from any single customer. 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 customers accounted for more than 10% of revenues for the years ending December 31, 2001 and 2002.

j.  Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments

  The following methods and assumption were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments as of 

December 31, 2001 and 2002 for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

•   Cash

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

•   Time deposits

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

•   Marketable securities

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

value.

•   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.

•   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.

179

178

•   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 flows, 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 significant impact on the estimate of fair values disclosed.  As a result such 

fair value amounts are subject to significant volatility and are highly dependent on the qualify of the assumptions used.

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

follows:

Cash

Time deposits

Marketable securities

Accounts receivable

Notes receivable, net

Other accounts receivable, net

Amounts due from related companies

Long-term accounts recievable

k.  Derivative instruments

  The Company is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations 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 fluctuation on a global basis through strategic contract 

selection, fixed-rate and variable-rate portfolio targets, net investment hedges, and financial derivatives.  All derivatives that 

do not qualify 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 derivatives as a “hedge”, if 

the documentation is not appropriate to designate as a “hedge” the derivative’s mark-to-market adjustment flows through the 

income statement. The Company does not have the appropriate documentation in place to designate contracts as hedges of a 

forecasted transaction or future cash flows (cash flow hedge) or as a hedge of a recognized assets, liability or firm commitment 

(fair value hedge).

The Company has classified its derivatives into the following general categories: commodity derivatives, embedded derivatives, 

and financial 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 (See Embedded Derivative Contracts below). For purposes of evaluating 

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

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

181

180

180

 
 
 
consistent with the methodology described in paragraph (s), 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 

significant risks as determined under BT 64.

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

implementation of SFAS No. 133 on January 1, 2001 and as the year-ended December 31, 2001 and 2002.

  Certain Company’s generation and distribution commodity contracts could be seen as contracts that meet the definition of 

a derivative under SFAS No. 133 and would be required to be accounted for at fair value.  These conditions are (i) have an 

underlying, which is the market price of power at the delivery location and a notional amount specified in the contract; (ii) have 

no initial payment on entering into the contract; and (iii) do not have a net settlement provision have 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 assessed that its commodity contracts that are requirements contracts do no meet the above definition because 

the contracts do not have notional amounts, as they only have maximum amounts or no specified amounts, and do not include 

an implicit or explicit 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 country by country 

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.  Management 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 significantly affecting the price, and thus meet the 

definition of net settlement, consequently these contracts are accounted as derivatives that under SFAS No.133.

  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 significant 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, inflation 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 significant effect on the Company’s net income and shareholder equity.

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

significantly different fair value would result.  The Company considers the Argentine prices to be the correct benchmark to 

value the fair value of the interconnection contracts because 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.

  Such values are included in the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP in paragraph (aa).

  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 specified 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 

identified 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 financia1 instrument and it requires payments denominated in either: (1) the functional 

currency of any substantial patty 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 inflationary, 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 fixed-rate and variable rate debt.  The 

Company manages interest rate risk exposure on a global basis by limiting its variable rate and fixed-rate exposures to certain 

variable/fixed 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 financia1 instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

  Net lnvestment 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 

ll (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 fluctuations.  These contracts are 

considered “cover” contracts under Chilean GAAP.  In accordance with Chilean GAAP the gain and losses on these contracts 

are deferred until realized as assets or liabilities.

  For U.S. GAAP purposes, as the Company has not met the requirements for designating these derivatives contracts as 

“hedges”, the contracts are recorded at fair value in the balance sheet with any unrealized gain and/or losses being directly 

recorded in the income statement.

l.  Reclassification to U.S. GAAP

  Certain reclassifications 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 reclassifications included in the column labeled “Reclassifications” disclose amounts using a U.S. GAAP

  Certain reclassifications 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.  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 additional component was recorded in 

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

be classified as non-current assets as the recovery of these assets is not expected in the short term.  These reclassifications 

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

  The effect of the following reclassifications included in the column labeled “Reclassifications” discloses amounts using a U.S.

m. Employee Benefit Plans

  Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries sponsor various benefit plans for its current and retired employees.  A description of such’ 

benefits 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.

  Benefits for Retired Personnel

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

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

i)   Electrical rate service

  This benefit 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 benefits

  This benefit provides supplementary health insurance, which covers a portion of health benefits not covered under the 

institutional health benefits maintained by employees of Enersis. This benefit expires at the time of death of the pensioner.

iii) Supplementary pension benefits

  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 benefit 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 benefits

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

from the Company as such insurance has expired.  This benefit continues at the time of death of the pensioner, to cover the 

surviving-spouse.

  The Company has recognized liabilities related to complementary pension plan benefits and other postretirement benefits as 

stipulated in collective bargaining agreements.  Under U.S. GAAP, post-retirement employee benefits have been accounted 

for in accordance with SFAS No. 87 and SFAS No. 106, with inclusion of prior-period amounts in current year’s income as 

the amounts are not considered significant to the overall financia1 statement presentation. The effects of accounting for post-

retirement benefits under U.S. GAAP have been presented in paragraph (bb), above. The following data are presented under 

U.S. GAAP for Company’s post-retirement benefit plans.

o.  Discontinued operations

In October of 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 

No. 144 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets and discontinued 

operations. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 in 2002. All prior year reporting periods have been restated to reflect the 

adoption. The application of this statement resulted in the classification, and separate financial presentation of certain entities 

as discontinued operations, the results of which are not included in continuing operations. There was no impairment of assets 

related to discontinued operations, as their fair value exceeded their carrying value. Fair values used in these calculations 

has been determined by using the agreed upon sales prices.

In 2002, the Endesa Chile (Enersis Subsidiary) committed to a plan to dispose the 60% equity participation it held in the 

consolidated subsidiary, Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A.  It was accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 

No. 144 and, accordingly, amounts in reconciliation of net income to US GAAP and the additional disclosure notes required 

under US GAAP for all periods shown, reflect that component as a discontinued operation.

The net sales from discontinued operations for the years 2000, 2001 and 2002 were ThCh$15,081,812, ThCh$20,150,123 and 

ThCh$20,202,007, respectively.  The major classes of discontinued consolidated assets, consolidated liabilities and minority 

interest included in the Chilean GAAP Endesa Chile consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

p.  Goodwill and intangible assets

  As discussed in paragraph (i), Enersis S.A. adopted SFAS 142, which requires companies to stop amortizing goodwill and 

certain intangible assets with an indefinite useful life.  Instead, FAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets deemed 

to have an indefinite useful life be reviewed for impairment upon adoption of SFAS 142, effective January 1, 2002 and 

annually thereafter. Under SFAS 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds 

its estimated fair value.  The Company’s reporting units are at the operating subsidiary level.  This methodology differs from 

Enersis’s previous policy, as provided under accounting standards existing at that time of using undiscounted cash flows on 

an enterprise-wide basis to determine if goodwill was recoverable.  Upon adoption of SFAS 142 in 2002, the Company has 

recognized a non-cash charge of ThCh$600,380,013 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill.

In calculating the impairment charge, the fair value of the impaired reporting units underlying the segments were estimated 

using discounted cash flow methodology. The ThCh$600,380,013 goodwill impairment is associated entirely with goodwill 

associated with investments in Argentina and Brazil. The impairment reflects the decline in the Company’s revenues and 

forecasted cash flows in their Argentina and Brazilian subsidiaries and the increase in inflation and interest rates and decreasing 

expectations of the currencies in Argentina and Brazil.  Prior to performing the review for impairment, SFAS 142 required that 

all goodwill deemed to be related to the entity as a whole be assigned to all of the Company’s reporting units, including the 

reporting units of the acquirer.

(1) In thousands of constant Chilean pesos as of December 31, 2002, using exchange rate of Ch$ 718,61 per US$ 

  The Company’s intangible assets were ThCh$71,697,080 and ThCh$80,915,893 and related accumulated amortization were 

ThCh$25,148,069 and ThCh$34,648,290 as of December 31, 2001 and 2002, respectively.  There is no difference between 

Chilean and U.S. GAAP in the amortization of intangible assets because all of the Company’s intangible assets are subject 

to amortization, since they relate to finite contracts or concessions.

q.  Recent accounting pronouncements

In January 2003, the Chilean Association of Accountants issued Technical Bulletin No. 72, “Combinación de Negocios Inversiones 

Permanentes y Consolidación de Estados Financieros”. This standard complements or replaces existing accounting literature 

for business combinations under Chilean GAAP, and requires all acquisitions initiated after January 1, 2003 to be accounted for 

using the purchase method based on fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. In addition, in exceptional cases, 

the pooling-of-interest method may be used in reorganizations between related parties or for those transactions, where there 

is no clear acquirer. Technical Bulletin No. 72 continues to require the amortization of goodwill, and specifies the requirement 

for an impairment test. Notwithstanding any future transactions, the adoption of Technical Bulletin No. 72 is not expected to 

have a significant effect on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

In June 2001 the Financia1 Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financia1 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.  If the 

Company reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company would be required to adopt SFAS No. 143 effective January 

1, 2003.  The Company expects that the adoption of this statement will not result in a significant difference between Chilean 

GAAP and US GAAP in future periods, however the Company is still assessing the impact.

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financia1 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 Extinguishments 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 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

193

192

192

 
 
 
 
 
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 fiscal years beginning 

after May 15, 2002, although early application is encouraged. Any gain or loss on extinguishments of debt that was classified 

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 classification as an extraordinary item shall be reclassified. 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 classification as extraordinary items in APB Opinion No. 30.  The Company will apply SFAS 145 beginning January 

1, 2003.  The Company’s application of SFAS 145 will require the reclassification of the extraordinary gain on early retirement 

of Yankee bonds of ThCh$23,410,527 (as presented in Note 34 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 extinguishments of debt.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” This statement 

addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues 

Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an 

Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with 

an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value only when the liability is incurred, not when it is 

“planned”. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 146 for exit or disposal activities that are initiated 

after December 31, 2002 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations 

or financial position.

In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement N°149 (SFAS N°149), Amendment of 

Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  FAS N° 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative 

instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS N°133.  

SFAS N°149 is applied prospectively and is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for 

SFAS N°133 implementation issues that have been effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003, and certain 

provisions relating to forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other securities that do not yet exist.  Enersis 

is evaluating the effect, if any, that SFAS N°149 will have on its results of operating its financial position and its cash flows.

In June, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)issued Statement  of Financial Accounting Standards No. 

150 (“SFAS No. 150”), “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.”  This 

Statement clarifies classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and 

equity.  It requires classification of financial instruments within a company’s scope as liabilities.  Such financial instruments 

may include mandatorily redeemable shares, financial instruments which embody an obligation to repurchase shares or require 

issuer to settle the obligation by transferring assets, or financial instruments that embody an unconditional obligation, or, in 

certain circumstances, an unconditional obligation.  The Company believes that the adoption of this pronouncement will not 

have an impact on its statements of financial condition, its statements of operations or cash flows.  

In January, 2003, Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” was 

issued , which is applicable for all revenue arrangements of this nature entered into after June 15, 2003.  This EITF applies 

to all deliverables within contractually binding arrangements in all industries in which a vendor will perform multiple revenue-

generating activities with certain exceptions.  The application guidance contains guidance on 1) how these arrangements should 

be measured; 2) whether the arrangement should be divided into separate units of accounting, and 3) how the arrangement 

consideration should be allocated among the separate units of accounting.  The Company believes that the issuance of this 

EITF will have no impact on its statements of financial condition, its statements of operations or cash flows.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, 

Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”  (FIN 45). The Interpretation will significantly change current practice in 

the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. In general, the Interpretation applies to contracts or indemnification agreements 

that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying that is 

related to an asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. Guarantees meeting the characteristics described 

in the Interpretation, are required to be initially recorded at fair value, which is different from the general current practice of 

recording a liability only when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, as those terms are defined in FASB Statement 

No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies”. The Interpretation also requires a guarantor to make significant new disclosures for 

virtually all guarantees even when the likelihood of the guarantor’s having to make payments under the guarantee is remote. 

The Interpretation’s disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after 

December 15, 2002. The Interpretation’s initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective 

basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantor’s fiscal year-end. The Company 

has implemented FIN 45 during December 31, 2002, noting no adjustments to US GAAP were necessary as the fair values 

of all direct and indirect guarantees were zero, see Note 28 for a detail of the Company’s guarantees.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities-an interpretation of ARB 

51,” to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial 

statements the assets, liabilities and activities of another entity.  Many variable interest entities have commonly been referred 

to as special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures, but the guidance applies to a larger population of entities.  In 

general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes 

that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial 

resources for the entity to support its activities. The Company must apply Interpretation No. 46 immediately to variable interest 

entities created after January 31, 2003 and apply it to existing variable interest entities in the first fiscal year or interim period 

beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company does not expect the interpretation to have a material impact on the Company’s 

results of operation or financial position.

r.  Subsequent events

(1)   During January 2003, the governor of the State of Paraná in Brazil suspended payment and announced its intention 

to cancel or renegotiate the long-term energy contracts between Copel and Endesa-Chile’s equity method investment, 

CIEN.  The 20-year long-term contracts were negotiated during almost two years of negotiations and aim to relieve the 

energy-suppy shortages in Brazil, and were complied with through December 31, 2002.  An investment of more than 

US$ 700 million was made to build the Interconnection-line between Brazil and Argentina.  During 2002, approximately 

R$1.2 billion (or approximately US$ 340 million) of energy was sold by CIEN to Copel through the long-term energy 

contracts.  CIEN has notified the Ministry of Mines and Energy and the Electric Energy Regulatory Agency (“ANEEL”) of 

Copel’s default. CIEN has 20-year long-term energy purchase commitments in Argentina to satisfy the supply contracts 

with Copel.  Additionally, the estimated fair value of these long-term energy contracts with Copel was US$ 350 million 

as of December 31, 2002, and any changes or cancellation of the contracts would likely have a material impact in the 

Company’s consolidated net income and shareholders’ equity.

(2)   On March 28, 2003, Enersis announced that the board of directors awarded the sale of its 98.7% equity stake in Río 

Maipo to CGE Distribución S.A. for US$ 203 million.  Enersis’ shareholders approved the sale of Río Maipo at a March 

31, 2003 Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting. Enersis estimates that the sale of Río Maipo will contribute US$ 126 

million before taxes to its income statement for the year ended December 31, 2003, and expects to apply the proceeds 

of this sale to reduce its debt. On April 30, 2003, Río Maipo was sold for US$ 203 million, including US$ 33 million in 

debt.

(3)   On March 31, 2003, at an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, Enersis’ management approved a capital increase for 

the equivalent of up to US$ 2 billion.  The capital increase, which commenced on May 31, 2003, already allowed for the 

capitalization of all of Endesa-Spain’s loan to Enersis (with a face value of approximately US$ 1.37 billion), and will allow 

the capitalization of Enersis’ local bonds (with a face value of approximately US$ 151 million), as well as the subscription 

of shares for cash.  All existing shareholders, other than Endesa-Spain, will have two pre-emptive rights periods in which 

they are allowed to subscribe their pro rata equity shares, or sell their rights in the market.  Endesa-Spain exercised its 

rights on June 2, 2003, and has voluntarily excluded itself from the second pre-emptive rights period.  The new shares 

to be offered in the capital increase will not be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), 

and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration 

requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Enersis’ shareholders approved the removal of the 65% 

maximum limit that a single shareholder was permitted to own in Enersis.

(4)   In April 2003, CELG initiated legal proceedings against Cachoeira Dourada and ANEEL demanding the annulment of the 

energy sale contract signed with Cachoeira Dourada in 1998, alleging, among other things, that the contract is extremely 

onerous and damaging to the financial stability of CELG, causing it supposed damages of approximately US$ 250 million 

from 1997 to 2003.

CELG obtained a preliminary and provisional judgment that suspends the effects of the contract and authorizes CELG 

to stop payments, also provisionally, of the amounts contractually due to Cachoeira Dourada which correspond to the 

energy sale price.

Both Cachoeira Dourada and ANEEL presented their defenses and legal argument against the decision to suspend the 

contract.  All parties are waiting for the judge to decide whether or not to confirm the preliminary decision of suspending 

the effects of the contract.  Should the judge confirm the decision to suspend the effects of the contract, Cachoeira 

Dourada and ANEEL will have the opportunity to appeal to an appropriate authority.

Both Cachoeira Dourada and its lawyers believe that there is a high probability of obtaining a favorable final decision.  

(5)   On April 8, 2003 Endesa Chile (Enersis Subsidiary) sold 285 kilometers of 220 kV transmission lines to Transelec for 

US$ 32 million (approximately ThCh$ 22,400,000). The carrying value of net assets under Chilean GAAP sold amounted to 

ThCh$21,562,962 as of December 31, 2002.  Additionally, GasAtacama Generación Limitada, of which Endesa Chile has a 

50% participation, sold 673 kilometers of 220 kV line transmission lines for approximately US$ 78 million (ThCh$54,600,000 

approximately). The carrying value of net assets under Chilean GAAP sold amounted to ThCh$53,458,465 as of December 

31, 2002.  In both cases, the transaction included the transfer of the respective substations.

(6)   On April 25, 2003, Enersis, Endesa-Chile, Enersis Internacional, Chilectra Internacional, and Chilectra filed an action before 

the Centro Internacional de Arreglo de Diferencias relativas a Inversiones (“CIADI”) in Washington, D.C., requesting an 

arbitration for resolving a dispute with the Republic of Argentina.  The grounds of this action are the damages suffered by 

the investments of Enersis and our subsidiaries in Argentina, as a consequence of the approval of Economic Emergency 

Law, Decree N°214/2002, Decree N°293/2002 and Resolution N°38/2002 of the Ministry of Economy.  The outcome of 

these new rules has been a complete new legal framework for the Argentine investments of Enersis and its subsidiaries, 

which originally date back to September 1992.  The original commitments assumed by the Republic of Argentina regarding 

these investments have not been met.  The arbitration action argues that the Republic of Argentina’s failure to comply 

with its commitments in relation to our investments by the part of the Republic of Argentina is against the letter and the 

spirit of the Treaty.

(7)   On April 30, 2003 Endesa Chile (Enersis Subsidiary) sold Canutillar Plant to Cenelca S.A. for US$ 174 million (approximately 

ThCh$121,800,000). The carrying value of net assets sold under Chilean GAAP amounted to ThCh$ 125,925,381 as of 

December 31, 2002 and its installed capacity was 172 MW.

(8)   In May 2003 Chilectra increased its interest in Cerj in Brazil from 33.4% to 41.2% through a capital increase to which 

Enersis subscribed in January 2003, and later sold a share to Chilectra.  Its interest in Coelce in Brazil was also indirectly 

increased, through Cerj, from 12.8% to 14.4%. Chilectra also owns a 9.9% interest in Codensa in Colombia and a 15.6% 

interest in Edelnor in Peru.

(9)   On May 15, 2003, Enersis and Endesa-Chile refinanced US$ 2.33 billion in syndicated loans and bilateral credit agreements 

structured as:

•  

a US$ 200 million Senior Secured Syndicated Term Loan Facility for Enersis and a US$ 1,388 billion Senior Secured 

Syndication Term Loan Facility for Enersis, acting through its Cayman Islands Branch (the “Enersis Facility”) each for 

five years; and

•  

a US$ 743 million Senior Guaranteed Syndicated Term Loan Facility for Endesa-Chile, acting through its Cayman Islands 

Branch (the “Endesa-Chile Facility”, and together with the Enersis Facility, the “Facilities”).

The refinancing of bank obligations with the Facilities has allowed Enersis and Endesa-Chile to: (a) make payments for 

the bond maturities and put option coming due in 2003 for a total of US$ 701 million, (b) lengthen the maturity profile 

of our debt, (c) allow a greater period of time before amortizing principal payments on our debt and (d) provide better 

conditions for the planned capital increase process.

The following table shows the effects that would have been recognized under Chilean GAAP from the refinancing of 

liabilities mentioned before.

(10)  On May 15, 2003 the Supreme Court of Chile made its final verdict as a consequence of an appeal against Resolution 

No. 667, ruling in favor of Enersis and confirming Resolution No. 667 from Comisión Resolutiva.

On May 28, 2003, a private complaint against Enersis was filed with the Comisión Resolutiva alleging that Enersis has 

failed to comply with Resolution No. 667 since Enersis, Endesa-Chile and Chilectra have supposedly shared finance, 

auditing and communication departments.  The complaint alleges that by joining these departments, Enersis is frustrating 

the Comisión Resolutiva’s objective of preventing energy companies from sharing essential information and keeping 

the electricity business of generation and distribution independent.  Enersis believes that the Comisión Resolutiva’s 

investigation will not lead to a prohibition of Enersis’s control over the energy distribution and generation markets, 

because we believe this matter was clearly resolved by Resolution No.667.

(11)  The Sixth Civil Court of Santiago recently issued its ruling in relation to a lawsuit opposing the Ralco Project filed by 

a group of people belonging to the Pehuenche ethnic group.  The lower court’s sentence concludes that the voluntary 

procedure undertaken by Endesa-Chile for the assessment of the environmental impact of the Ralco Project is null 

since, in the court’s opinion, CONAMA, the Environmental Government Agency, was not legally entitled to assess the 

environmental impact study presented by the Company to CONAMA.  Both defendants, the Company and CONAMA, 

consider this questioning of the legitimacy of the process is unjustified.  The resolution dictated by the Sixth Civil Court 

of Santiago does not imply the penalization of the project, which to date has achieved more than 80% completion.

On May 30, 2003, the plaintiffs requested the suspension of the Ralco Project, which was rejected by the court.  Instead, 

of suspending the entire project, the judge ruled that the flooding of the dam should not proceed.  Endesa plans to appeal 

this ruling before the Appeals Court of Santiago.

  Relevant aspects on the businesses of Endesa España

  As of September 20, 2002, our parent company, Endesa S.A. (Spain) has presented to the Comisión Nacional de Mercado de 

Valores de Madrid (Madrid Stock Exchange National Commission), the Superintendence of Securities and Insurance and the 

S.E.C., a report on the relevant aspects of its businesses. This report and how the situation of its businesses in Latin America 

affects Endesa España, states the following: 

“No extraordinary rightoffs, such as those already carried out by other national and international companies, are foreseen. 

The rightoffs have been made in each quarter by adjusting the value of the investments according to the devaluation of the 

Latin American currencies, additionally  supplying the provisions deemed necessary. This has meant an accumulated rightoff, 

from the time when these investments were made, of 2,700 million euros of the Latin American investment. The book value 

of the Latin American assets reasonably corresponds to the market value of same.

  Businesses in Latin America show a general positive behavior during the year, as reflected in the operating result of the Latin 

American business which was increased by 6% in the first half of the year compared to the previous year. Without taking 

Argentina into consideration, the operating result has increased by 25%. 

  Brazil. The impact caused by the devaluation of the Real is very limited, because 55% of the debt of our Brazilian subsidiaries 

is denominated in Reales. The remainder is in US dollars, financing a company, CIEN, whose income is linked to the US dollar. 

The strong increase in the demand during July and the full operation of the second interconnection line between Argentina and 

Brazil will contribute to improve the profitability of our operations between these two countries. Additionally, US$ 62 million 

have already been collected from the BNDES loan due to the electric rationing.

  Chile. The recovery of the hydraulic production in Chile is largely contributing to a strong operating improvement during the 

year. The operating result for the generation business in Chile was increased by 55% during the first half.

  Argentina. Provision has been made for 100% of Endesa’s investment in that country. Taken together, the Argentinean 

companies have a positive operating result, which is higher than the interests corresponding to the debt. 

Indebtedness and liquidity of the Latin American companies.

-   Neither Enersis nor Endesa (Chile) have liquidity problems.

-   The Enersis group has reduced its indebtedness by 1,140 million euros during the first half.

-   These companies may, in the short term, dispose assets for a minimal amount of 600 million euros which, taken together 

with the debt associated with these assets, will represent a total reduction in indebtedness of 1,000 million euros.

-    The companies have closed August with a positive cash situation of US$ 460 million, and maintain an absolutely normal 

financial situation with the exception of Argentina, where the general situation of the country is affecting the financial 

activities. Notwithstanding, the Endesa subsidiaries are serving the interest payments and are obtaining extensions for 

the maturities of the principal of their debts.

-   Endesa (España) would be willing to capitalize the loan granted to Enersis for an amount of 1,440 million euros, which 

would represent an important improvement of its equity situation.

-   Standard & Poors has ratified in last July, the BBB+ rating for the long term debt of Enersis and Endesa Chile.

-   Finally, the debt of Enersis with Endesa has no warranty or coverage has been given on this debt and there are no “cross-

default” clauses with said debt.

  Financial strengthening plan

In the Extraordinary Meeting held on October 4, 2002, the Board of Directors of Enersis S.A. agreed, upon unanimous vote 

of its present members, to announce that a financial and economic strengthening plan has been approved for Enersis S.A., 

intended to strengthen its equity, via improving its financial structure and allowing the Company to face the regional situation  

which affects its investments. Said plan contemplates the following operations:

a)  Increase of capital: The Board of Directors of Enersis has decided to initiate a capital increase process for an amount of 

up to US$ 1,500 million, which includes cash and/or financial loan contributions. Said process will involve summoning, in 

one of the following meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company, an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting which will 

decide on the terms of this capital increase, anticipating that this meeting should take place during the first four months   

of 2003;

b)  Disposal of the following assets:

(1)  Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. distributing company. 

(2)  Inmobiliaria Manso de Velasco Limitada real estate company.

(3)  Several real properties owned by Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries.

  Regarding the sale of Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., and considering that it is an asset deemed essential within 

the policy of investment and financing of Enersis, said divestment should be authorized by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ 

Meeting which will be summoned in due time.

  Regarding the real properties owned by the subsidiaries of Enersis S.A., this Company will propose the divestment of same 

to the pertinent companies.

  The amount expected to be raised through the process of divestment of assets contemplated in the financial and economic 

strengthening plan of Enersis S.A. will be assigned to reduce the financial indebtedness of the Company;

c)  Refinancing the intercompany loans of some of the subsidiaries with Enersis S.A.: Part of the Enersis financing with its 

subsidiaries will be substituted by loans directly contracted in the market. This will result in a substantial improvement in 

the leverage  (ratio between debt and equity) of the balance sheet of Enersis S.A.; and 

d)  Improvement in free cash flow. Enersis S.A. will continue to enforce the efficiency measures for operations and investments, 

in order to increase its yearly operating consolidated free cash flows by at least US$ 130 million, achievable in a three-year 

term. These higher flows will be in addition to those derived from demand variations and unit margins for energy sales and 

purchases.

  On the other hand, the above mentioned capital increase will benefit the company with an additional increase in cash flow 

due to the consequent reduction in financial expenses.  

  All of these measures should allow a reduction in the indebtedness of Enersis, S.A. by up to US$ 2,200 million, as well as the 

attainment of a ratio of debt/funds of its own of about 0.6.

The Board of Directors agreed to authorize the Management of the Company to propose to the Board of Directors the appointment 

of an investor bank to conduct the above mentioned alienation processes, as well as to adopt all of the measures leading to 

the adequate materialization of the above described operations.

  Study of stock placement

  As of November 7, Enersis S.A. has initiated negotiations with the following investment banks, in order to study the possibility 

of placing shares in foreign markets: Deutsche Bank, Salomon Smith Barney and Santander Investment, leading the process 

jointly.

   ENDESA S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

  During the period January-December 2002, and according to the General Rule No. 30, the  Company informed of the following 

essential or relevant facts to the Superintendence of Securities and Insurance: 

  ENDESA MAIN OFFICE

  On March 6, 2002, it is informed as a relevant fact, that on March 5 of the present year, ENDESA was notified of a suit for 

arbitral trial filed by the insurance company AGF/ALLIANZ CHILE COMPAÑÍA DE SEGUROS GENERALES S.A., requesting 

from the referee Mr. Ricardo Peralta, the rescission of insurance policy No. 96676. Said policy protects agains all building 

and installation risks,  including civil liability and anticipated loss of benefits for the construction of Ralco Hydroelectric Power 

Station. Said policy is in force from May 1, 1999 to May 1, 2003. 

ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

203

202

202

 
 
 
 
 
 
  The arbitral suit has, as a direct antecedent, the accident at the cofferdam of the Ralco Project occurred on May 27, 2001, 

and is founded on the existence of true risks; subsidiarily, on the aggravation of same; and, finally, on the lack of information 

about the nature and extension of the risks under contract.

It is worth pointing out that the settlement of the above mentioned accident is pending until the issuance of the final report by 

the liquidator appointed in the policy. 

  From the preliminary analysis of the plaintiff’s claims, we can inform that, in our opinion, the suit filed by the insurance 

company requesting the rescission of the insurance contract lacks support. Therefore, ENDESA, together with adopting all 

of the pertinent securities for the protection of the assets insured by the referred policy, will respond to the above mentioned 

suit according to the arguments to which it is entitled in fact and by right, in order to obtain its complete rejection. 

  On March 19, 2002, it is informed as a relevant fact, that the present day press announces extensively that the node price 

will be reduced by 12% in the next tariff setting process. These news are sourced from a release from the National Energy 

Commission, to the companies of the energy sector and to the media, of the preliminary report on node prices.

  Regarding the above and considering the negative effect observed today in the share price of our company in the stock 

exchange centers where they are traded, we have considered pertinent to point out the following:

  The thus announced 12% reduction in the node prices corresponds to the result of a model with which the National Energy 

Commission estimates the level of the node prices in a preliminary calculation and report. However, according to DFL No.1 

(Electric Law) which rules this subject, said preliminary calculation must be revised by the National Energy Commission, 

taking into consideration the observations set forth by the companies. The process ends with a new calculation which should 

be carried out next April, in view of said observations. Therefore, the present calculation does not constitute in itself the node 

price setting it is just a step of the process. Endesa anticipates right now, at this point that a preliminary analysis of this first 

calculation suggests several alternatives of correction, which the Company will present to the authority within the referred 

process. 

  However, DFL No.1 also establishes as mandatory that the final calculation should be contrasted with the average price level 

of the non regulated market, through a price band which, in the eventual case of a rise or fall in the prices resulting from the 

theoretical model, would act to attenuate any effect of rise or fall in the final price that will be set. It is of common knowledge 

to the companies of the sector and the authority that, if in April the theoretical model maintains results such as those of this 

preliminary calculation, the referred band would act to significantly attenuate the theoretical effect announced.

In view of the foregoing, it is premature and distorting for the market to anticipate falls in the node prices such as those 

announced, without describing the complete process and without disclosing the existence of the referred band.

In the Ordinary Shareholder’s Meeting of the Company held on April 11, 2002, the following decisions were adopted:

  Approval of the Financial Report, Balance Sheet, Other Financial Statements and Report from the External Auditors, 

corresponding to the period ended at December 31, 2001.

  Approval of a definitive dividend for the period 2001, which represents a total dividend to be paid of Ch$ 0.94 per share, which 

will be paid as of April 22, 2002.

  On June 27, 2002, it is informed that the Board of Directors of the Company, in a meeting held on this same date and in 

compliance with the resolution adopted by the last Ordinary Shareholder’s Meeting of Endesa, appointed the firm Langton 

Clarke Auditores y Consultoría Ltda. as external auditors of the Company for the period 2002.

It is stated that this appointment is applicable to the continuator of said firm, considering the incorporation process presently 

in progress with the international network of Ernst & Young International.

  On July 25, 2002, it is informed as an essential fact, that in an Extraordinary Meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company 

held on this same date, Mr. Luis Rivera was appointed as new Chairman of the Board and of the Company. Mr. Rivera was 

incorporated as Director of Endesa in this same meeting, in place of Mr. Pablo Yrarrázaval, who resigned to the positions he 

held as Director and Chairman of the Company.

  On October 4, 2002, it is informed as an essential fact, that in the Extraordinary Meeting held on October 3, 2002, the Board 

of Directors of the Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A. agreed, upon unanimous vote of its present members, to approve a 

financial and economic strengthening plan for Endesa, and consequently for its national and foreign subsidiaries, via improving 

its credit structure, expediting the investment process presently in progress, and reasserting the financial strength of Endesa to 

allow it to face, more easily, the regional situation which affects its investments. Said plan contemplates the disinvestment of 

several assets, and the refinancing and reduction of debts, with the purpose of achieving an equity and financial strengthening 

of the Company.

  The referred plan basically contains the following operations: 

Initiation of the divestment process of Canutillar Hydroelectric Power Station owned by Endesa, having an installed capacity 

of 172 MW and a mean production of 950 GWh, and representing 4.4% of the installed capacity of Endesa in Chile. Within 

this process, an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting will be held for its approval.

  Promote the refinancing of the GasAtacama Project in order to replace the debt held by the companies involved in the project 

with their owners, through external financing granted by international banks.

  Alienation of transmission lines owned by Endesa and its  subsidiaries.

  To all of the above is added the divestment of Endesa’s stake in Infraestructura Dos Mil S.A., a process presently in progress 

which, in addition to the price corresponding to the divestment in itself, approximately US$ 50,000,000, will permit the reduction 

of the consolidated debt by approximately US$ 20,000,000.

  Compliance with the financial strengthening plan, which comprises the global process of disposal of assets, the effect for the 

company of the refinancing of Gas Atacama and the consolidated debt reduction through the sale of Infraestructura Dos Mil 

S.A., will result in an estimated income of US$ 600 million to US$ 700 million, which will be assigned to reduce the financial 

indebtedness of the Company. The compliance of the plan is progressive, although it should be completed during next year.

  Also, the Board of Directors agreed to authorize the executive management of the Company to carry out the referred financial 

strengthening plan, to this effect being able to carry out all the initiatives and actions leading to its complete materialization.

  On October 29, 2002, it is informed as an essential fact that, in the Ordinary Meeting of the Board of Directors held on October 

28, 2002, it was unanimously agreed by all present members, to create a subsidiary named “Empresa Eléctrica Canutillar S.A.”, 

in which Endesa will own 99.9% of the capital stock and which, in due time and after obtaining the corresponding corporate 

authorizations, will be provided with all the assets of Canutillar Power Station, today owned by Endesa. All of this is within the 

process for the alienation of this hydroelectric asset to third parties, as reported in our essential fact of October 4, 2002. 

  On January 15, 2003, it is informed as an essential fact, that the Board of Directors of Empresa Nacional de Electricidad, in 

an Extraordinary Meeting held today, agreed to will make accounting adjustments and extraordinary charges to its balance 

sheet, due to its investments in Brazil and Argentina, for a total amount of US$ 137.4 million, or its equivalent in national 

currency, said extraordinary adjustments being reflected on the results of the period 2002.

  The above mentioned figure can be broken up as follows for each country:

  Brazil: 

US$ 100 million

  Argentina: 

US$ 37.4 million.

  The agreement of accounting adjustments is taken in compliance with the application of the new accounting regulation 

promulgated in the USA, which is mandatory for the companies listed (registered) in said country. This regulation, incorporated 

in the generally accepted accounting principles applied by the external auditors of the Company, corresponds to the Rule FAS 

142 and its first application will be to the financial statements of December 2002.

  The extraordinary adjustments will have no impact on the cash flow of the Company and will not affect its liquidity situation, 

this extraordinary measure being inserted for this only one time as a complement of the financial and economic strengthening 

plan for the Company, approved by the Board of Directors in October 2002.

  PEHUENCHE S.A.

  On January 30, 2002, it is informed as an essential fact, that in the meeting held on January 29, 2002, the Board of Directors 

of Empresa Eléctrica Pehuenche S.A., considering that the profits of the period January-November 2001 are substantially 

lower than the expectations considered in the estimated budget for said period, approved upon unanimous vote of its present 

members, not to distribute during the month of January 2002 the provisional dividend charged to net and realized income for 

the period January-November 2001, as the amount to be distributed would be immaterial. In fact, the financial statements 

of the Company as of November 30, 2001 show a net and realized income for the period of Ch$ 59,124,009, a figure which 

includes an approximate estimate of the tax payments for this period. Therefore, if the provisional dividend were distributed, 

as contemplated in the dividend policy informed to the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of the Company held on March 30, 

2001, and which corresponds to 70% of the net and realized income for the above mentioned period, said provisional dividend 

would be approximately Ch$ 0.07 per share.

  All of the above is without prejudice (independent) of the definitive dividend, regarding which the Ordinary Shareholders’ 

Meeting scheduled for the month of April 2002 should issue a pronouncement.

  The Ordinary Shareholder’s Meeting of the subsidiary “Empresa Eléctrica Pehuenche S.A.”, held on April 8, 2002, approved

Consolidated Management Analysis

  ECONOMIC-FINANCIAL SUMMARY 

  As of December, 2002, Net Income registered a loss of Ch$ 223.748 million, compared to the profit of Ch$ 42.154 million as of 

December, 2001. This decrease is basically related to the Accounting Adjustments made by the Company for our investments 

in Argentina and Brasil.  In any event, it is important to highlight that these one time adjustments, are merely accounting issues, 

and do not represent cash flow reduction. Therefore, these will not affect the liquidity of the Company. 

  Operating Income amounted to Ch$ 532.644 million, which represents a  29.4% respect to the year 2001. This fall is mainly 

explained by the economic instability in Argentina and the strong devaluation in Brazil. It is important to highlight, however, 

the improved Operating Income achieved during this period by Chilean subsidiaries. 

In this respect, this is clearly shown when isolating the effect of subsidiaries in Argentina, in which case the Operating Income 

decreased only 8.6%, equivalent to Ch$ 50.009 million, as shown in the Pro-Forma Income Statement. 

In the Distribution Business, it is important to highlight  improvement of 1.6% in consolidated Physical Sales, reaching 

48,955 GWh, is equivalent to 767 GWh of higher sales compared to 2001, which shows the recovery of some key ratios of the 

business. On the other hand, physical sales in generation, decrease mainly in Argentina, from 12.988 GWh to 7.897 GWh. 

  Also in the Distribution Business, there is a 2.8% increase in the number of clients, reaching 275,000 new customers, equivalent 

to add a company like Río Maipo. This growth in clients, with the recovery of the demand, makes us to believe that sales will 

increase during the year 2003.

  Another important element in the operating side is the labor productivity, that increase 2.2%, from 1,379 clients per employee 

to 1,409 clients per employee, confirming the positive trend shown in the last three years.

  Energy losses, another key variable in the distribution business, increase from 11.9% to 12.1%, primarily due to Edesur, offset 

by the decrease of Codensa, from 11.8% to 10.3%, as well as the other subsidiaries.  

  Net Financial Result improved by Ch$ 41.957 million or 10.6%, from a loss of Ch$ 396.208 million as of December 2001 to a 

loss of Ch$ 354.251 million this year. This variation is the result of lower interest rates on the international markets respect 

to the previous year.  

  Ch$ 573,508 million of lower operating revenues, offset by a decrease of operating costs in 14.6%, equivalent to Ch$ 295.262 

million, additionally Ch$ 56.346 million of lower administrative and selling expenses, equivalent to a 20%. Excluding our 

Argentinean subsidiaries, the decrease in operating revenues have been only 2.2%.

In the Generation Business, the Operating Income of Endesa Chile amounted to Ch$ 346.224 million, a decrease of 0.5%, 

basically due to a lower Operating Income in Argentina and Brazil, compensated by improvements in Chile and Peru. 

In Argentina, Operating Income amounted to Ch$ 12.256 million, a fall of Ch$ 30.784 million respect to December 2001.  This 

decrease is due to the drop in average sales prices of energy from El Chocón as a result of the devaluation of the Argentine 

Peso and also 39.2% decrease in physical sales. Furthermore, lower energy prices in Brazil as a result of a surplus water 

supply in the zone, implied that in 2002 only 2% needed to be purchased from CIEN interconnection line. 

In Brazil, Operating Income of Cachoeira Dourada decreased by 39.2% to Ch$ 16.981 million. This decrease was result of 

20.3% lower average energy sales prices, due to the devaluation of the Brazilian currency respect to the US$ and greater 

energy purchases associated to the recovery of reservoirs after the drought in southeastern Brazil. 

In Chile, Operating Income amounted to Ch$ 171.136 million, reflecting an increase of 25.4%, mainly due to the result of higher 

hydroelectric generation associated to an improvement in the reservoirs levels. Another contributing factor, was the increase in 

average sales prices resulting from the marketing policies that enabled the company to obtain the best prices on unregulated 

clients and spot markets. Furthermore, the reduction in the generation of thermoelectric meant a decrease of Ch$ 24.155 

million in the cost of fuel and transport of gas and the greater volumes of water allowed for a reduction of Ch$ 10.909 million 

in the cost of energy purchases.

In Colombia, Operating Income increased by 1.1% to Ch$ 75.373 million, basically as a result of an increase in physical sales 

of energy due to an improvement in water supplies and rainfall and to higher energy sales prices on the spot market. 

In Peru, Operating Income rose by 6.7% to Ch$ 70.477 million mainly due to higher average sales prices on the spot market 

which more than compensated the reduction in physical sales. 

  The Distribution Business shows an improvement of 1.6% in consolidated Physical Sales, reaching 48,955 GWh, which is 

equivalent to 767 GWh of higher sales compared to 2001.  There is a 2.7% increase in the number of clients, reaching 275,000 

new customers. 

In Chile, Chilectra shows an improvement  of Ch$ 5.651 million, equivalent to 6.9%, basically due to greater physical sales, 

compensated by an increase in Selling and Administrative Expenses related to higher salaries expenses.  In the case of Rio 

Maipo, Operating Income increased by Ch$ 223 million due to greater Energy Sales and lower Selling and Administrative 

Expenses. 

In Brazil, the Operating Income of our subsidiaries Cerj and Coelce show a decrease of Ch$ 49.609 million and Ch$ 19.720 

million, respectively. This variation is due to Regulatory Asset that both companies recognized on December 2001, addressed 

to the recovery of financial and economic equilibrium of the concessions contracts, and by that way, recover the consumption 

losses registered during the rationing in place during the year 2001 and early 2002. 

In Colombia, Codensa shows a decrease of Ch$ 7.226 million, mainly explained by the increase in Operating Expenses and 

Administrative Expenses, which was partially compensated by the increase in Operating Revenues, due to greater physical 

energy sales and lower energy losses, improving from 11.8% as of December 2001, to a 10.3% as of December 2002. 

In Peru, the subsidiary Edelnor reduced its Operating Income by Ch$ 1.749 million, basically due to an increase in Operating 

and Maintenance Costs. 

In Argentina, Edesur  registered a loss of Ch$ 12.737 million as of December 2002. This lower result is due to the economic 

instability of the country, that implied lower revenues on sales, due to a freeze on tariffs, a reduction in physical sales a as a 

result of a lower demand of energy, losses arising from the devaluation of the Argentine Peso and to an increase of energy 

losses due to theft. This significant negative impact on the Operating Income led to a net reduction in the consolidated Operating 

Income of Enersis, in comparison with the same period of the previous year.

b.  Non–operating Income

  Non-Operating Income shows a greater loss of Ch$ 796.530 million. This is mainly explained by the Accounting Adjustments 

made by the Company. These adjustments are in accordance to Chilean generally accepted accounting rules and have been 

applied for the first time on our Financial Statements. Adjustments correspond to the acceleration of net balance of negative and 

positive goodwill of investments in distribution and generation located in Argentina and Brazil, and due to the socioeconomic 

instability experienced in that countries. 

  Net Financial Result improved by Ch$ 41.957 million or 10.6%, from a loss of Ch$ 396.208 million as of December 2001 to 

a loss of Ch$ 354.251 million this year. This variation is the result of lower interest rates on the international markets respect 

to the previous year. 

Investment in Related Companies registered a net profit of Ch$ 8.264 million, a positive variation of Ch$ 18.963 million 

when compared to the net loss of Ch$ 10.699 million registered in December 2001.  This is principally due to the better result 

of Ch$ 13.058 million of CIEN, and the effects of the exchange rates in the results for both periods of the Endesa Chile´s 

related companies. 

  The Amortization on Positive Goodwill for the year 2002, amounted to Ch$ 506.344 million, an increase of Ch$ 425.768 

million respect to Ch$ 80.576 million as of December 2001. The increase in the amortization is related to the acceleration 

of amortization of the net balance of Negative and Positive goodwill of investments in distribution and generation located in 

Argentina and Brazil, accelerating the amortization of positive goodwill of this investments for $424.698 million ($273.790 

million net of minorities). The final net effect, including the negative goodwill, represent a loss of $362.179 million ($236.435 

million  net of minorities).

  Net Other Non-Operating Income increased by Ch$ 56.212 million, reaching a total amount of Ch$ 66.976 million.  

  This increase is mainly due to:

•  An increase of Ch$ 156.799 million derived from the adjustment on converting over to Chilean Accounting Rules on applying 

the norms contained in Technical Bulletin N°64, particularly respect to subsidiaries in Brazil and Argentina. This was principally 

due to the devaluation of both Brazilian Real and the Argentine Peso against its monetary assets and liabilities structure. 

•  An increase of Ch$ 10.567 million in profits from forward contracts, which recovered from a loss of Ch$ 5.752 million as of 

December 2001 to a profit of Ch$ 4.815 million this year. 

•  Higher dividends received from related companies of Ch$ 5.307 million. 

  This was partially compensated by:

•  Provisions made during 2002 of Ch$ 62.912 million for real estate projects in course. 

•  Lower profits booked during the year 2001 of Ch$ 24.113 million, due to the repurchase of the Yankee Bonds made by Enersis 

and Endesa Chile on November 2001.

•  An increase of Ch$ 13.130 million in provisions for contingencies and lawsuits. 

•  Net losses of Ch$ 7.528 million resulting from the recalculations of energy in the SIC-SING system. 

•  Taxes adjustment of the sales in a Brazilian subsidiary during the past year of Ch$ 6.731 million. 

•  Adjustment to the market value of the Sovereign Bond of the Argentinean Government by Ch$ 5.103 million. 

  Price Level Restatement and  Exchange Differences show lower losses of Ch$ 17.223 million. This was caused principally 

by the effects of the nominal devaluation of 9.75% of the Ch$ against the US$, compared to a devaluation of 14.14% as the 

same date last year. These effects were compensated to a large extent by forward contracts held by the Company. 

Income Tax and Deferred Taxes registered a reduction of Ch$ 63.833 million. This is mainly explained by a fall of Ch$ 51.205 

million in Income Tax, mainly due to the effects of the Argentinean subsidiaries and by a decrease of Ch$ 12.628 million in 

Deferred Taxes. 

  Extraordinary Items as of December, 2002 show a loss of Ch$  23.552 million as a result of a new tax imposed by the 

Colombian Government (Tax to contribute to security´s purposes) upon all companies established in that country. 

Interest rate risks 

  On a consolidated basis, as of December 31st, 2001, 42% of the total debt was expressed in variable terms (mainly Libor 

USD and Chilean TAB), while 58% was at fixed rates and secure. 

  At the end of 2002, the debt linked to variable rates represented 30% of the total debt, while 70% was at fixed rates. 

The reduction in the percentage of debt at variable rates during this year is explained basically by the refinancing of obligations 

(previously at variable terms) into fixed rates, and by hedge operations of Libor US$ rate for US$ 1,000 million, of which 

US$ 700 million were done by Enersis and US$ 300 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 debt at fixed rates and at variable rates. 

In the Argentinean subsidiaries, most of the debt is linked to the Libor.This rate have been decreasing, so we decide to maintain 

a high percentage of debt in variable rate. 

In Brazil, our subsidiaries has a natural coverage, tariffs are updated with the local price index correlated with the local interest 

rate. Because of that we have decided to maintain important part of the debt in variable rate, due to the good moments of the 

market to fixed some interest periods.

  Exchange risk 

The Company’s exposure to an exchange risk is derived from the assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, mainly 

US$. 

  On a consolidated basis, as of December 2001, Enersis had 72% of its total debt expressed in US$.  With the US$/Ch$ forward 

position, the weight of this debt in US$ was reduced to 67%. 

  As of December 31st, 2002, 69% of the debt was denominated in US$.  Considering the US$/Ch$ hedging policy mentioned 

below, the percentage of the debt denominated in US$ is reduced to 65%. 

  The reason behind the largest part of our debt being denominated in US$ is the fact that an important proportion of our 

revenues is directly or indirectly related to US$.  Thus, the tariffs of the majority of the countries in which we have operations 

are tied to a large extent to the evolution of the US$. Particularly in Chile and Peru.  In countries where the indexation to the 

US$ is lower, the companies borrow a greater proportion of their loans in local currency.

In our generation subsidiaries, in the case of Argentina, a large part of Central Costanera´s income come from exports to 

Brazil with contracts indexed to the US$. On the other hand, El Chocon contracts, expressed in US$, are currently being paid 

in Argentine Pesos.  In Colombia the contracts are at spot and at short term and, to a large extent follow the variation of the 

US$ exchange rate.  In Chile and Peru, the tariff process and the contracts are indexed to changes in the US$. Finally, the 

tariffs set for Cachoeira Dourada (in Brazil) are not indexed to US$.  Revenues are in local currency and are indexed to the 

inflation. 

In the case of Distribution companies in Argentina which operates under a federal concession, their tariffs are established 

in US$ in contracts and are indexed to the United States inflation, this is the case of our subsidiary Edesur.  Nevertheless, 

the Emergency Law promulgated in January 2002 expressed the tariffs in Pesos and has maintained them frozen.  For this 

reason, the companies have had to absorb, with no compensation whatsoever, the effects of devaluation and of inflation. 

Within the framework of renegotiation that is ongoing between the government and the companies, must established the 

conditions under which the tariffs will be set in the future. In Brazil, tariffs are indexed to the General Market Price Index. In 

Colombia the Added Distribution Value (VAD) is adjusted in accordance with the Producers Price Index every time that this 

rises by more than 3% in any of its components.

In Argentina, generating subsidiaries have their debts expressed in US$, given that their operating cash flows are largely 

related to that currency. Edesur has most of its debts in US$, because before the emergency law, its tariffs were indexed to 

that currency. Since then, the restrictions impossed, and the volatility on the local financial market have prevented any form 

of hedging the exchange risk. Thus, to date, the exposure to the US$ remains. On the other hand, in Brazil, our generating 

subsidiary is not exposed to the US$ as it has very low debt in Reales. Distribution subsidiaries used to have loans with third 

parties in local currencies. Only Cerj has received inter-company loans in US$ and for this reason has adopted a hedging 

policy, tending to maintain its US$ exposure at around 20%. 

In the particular case of Chile, the exchange risk depends on the variation in the exchange rates of the currencies in which 

assets and liabilities are booked. For accounting purposes and bearing in mind the instructions contained in Bulletin Nº 64, our 

results are also affected. According to this Chilean accounting norm, debts in foreign currency utilized to finance investments 

in countries considered to have an unstable currency are matched against the corresponding investments and the result of 

the variations of the Dollar against the Chilean Peso from the crossed debts are not reflected in the income statement. 

  Currently, the exchange risk is managed on a consolidated basis, taking into consideration the part of these risks that our 

Chilean subsidiaries have not covered. The company’s policy is set on maintaining between 70% and 85% of the booked 

exposure to exchange risk covered. 

The current exchange exposure between the Chilean Peso and the US Dollar is controlled with financial derivative instruments, 

basically USD/CLP forward contracts, to cover the exchange risk.  

  Others 

  As is customary in most of debts contracts from bank borrowings, and also on the capital markets, a substantial proportion 

of the financial debt of Enersis S.A. is subject to cross-default conditions. Some defaults on the part of Endesa Chile or its 

subsidiaries, if not cured in time (in those specific conditions that permit some time to resolve the problem), could result in a 

cross-default for Endesa Chile and for Enersis S.A. 

  We give below a detail of the defaults by Enersis or its subsidiaries that, if not cured in time, could result in a cross-default 

for Enersis and/or its subsidiaries: 

•  Failure to pay capital and interest on the corresponding debt. 

•  Failure by Enersis, Endesa Chile or of one of their respective subsidiaries to pay a single debt of USD 30 million or more on 

the date the corresponding payment should be paid (be it on the maturity date or by acceleration). 

•  Bankruptcy or suspension of payments by Enersis, Endesa Chile or one of their respective subsidiaries. 

•  Legal resolutions against Enersis, Endesa Chile or of one of their respective subsidiaries that imply an obligation for an 

amount equivalent or superior, jointly, to USD 30 million, and legal resolutions whose contents are different to a payment of 

a monetary obligation against Enersis, Endesa Chile or of one of their respective subsidiaries that could have an important 

adverse effect on Enersis (consolidated), or on Endesa Chile (consolidated), whichever the case. 

•  Government action by virtue of which all or a major part of the property or assets of Enersis, Endesa Chile or of one of their 

respective subsidiaries is nationalized, embargoed, expropriated, or government action impedes the continuity of operations, 

or a major part of them, of Enersis, Endesa Chile or of one of their respective subsidiaries.

• 

In certain cases, Enersis.’s  or Endesa Chile’s (whichever the case) debt expressed in US Dollars is rated below the “investment 

grade” category by the corresponding Risk Rating Agency (which, in this case, is Standard & Poor’s). 

•  Failure to comply with the clauses of the corresponding contract and that are not regularized during the grace period established 

such as commitments to maintain specific ratios on debt, interest coverage and a minimum net worth. 

In most credits –and in general terms– the expression “affiliate” relates to those which are relevant, both in Chile and 

abroad.

•  An increase in fixed assets by $254,409 million as a result of new capitalizations of $317,915 million and of the methodology 

of booking the non-monetary assets in historical dollars, in accordance with Technical Bulletin No. 64, in the affiliates 

located in unstable countries. This is partially offset by the depreciation in the period of $454,471 million. 

•  Current assets show an increase of $61,516 million, mainly due to the increase in accounts collectable from EE.RR. in 

the short term, by a transfer from the long term of $177,379 million, an increase in short-term deferred taxes of $27,794 

million, an increase in cash of $10,536 million and the increase of other current assets by $4.780 million, partially offset 

by the decrease in debtors for sales by $91,409 million, a decrease in time deposits by $32,486 million, a decrease in 

inventories by $17,041 million and a decrease in various debtors of $9,445 million. 

•  Other long-term assets show a reduction of $454,560 million, explained by the decrease in the net balance of goodwill 

and negative goodwill by $385,297 million, basically as a result of the write-off carried out for the impairment of goodwill 

and negative goodwill of investments in Argentina and Brasil. A decrease in accounts collectable from EE.RR. in the long 

term of $169,770 million, partially offset by the increase in capital expenditures in related companies of $26,716 million, 

an increase in long-term debtors for $23.947 million and the increase of other long-term assets for $40,220 million.

  Total liabilities of the Company show a reduction of $138,635 million in respect of the same period the year before. This is 

mainly due to:

  Due and payable liabilities show a net increase of $512,070 million, equivalent to 31.2%, mainly explained by the increase in 

Public Obligations of $435,653 million, due to the transfer from the long term to the short term of the Pehuenche Bonds and the 

Endesa Chile Euro Bonds, an increase in long-term Bank Obligations, current portion, by $179,725 million, and an increase in 

short-term Bank Obligations byr $124,039 million, partially offset by a decrease in other current liabilities by $90,842 million, 

a reduction in income tax of $49,751 million and a decrease in accounts payable for $40,596 million.

Long-term liabilities decreased by $418,755 million, mainly as a result of a reduction in long-term Bank Obligations by $279,911 

million, basically due to the transfer, and also the reduction in Public Obligations of $173,623 million due to the transfer from 

the long term to the short term of the Pehuenche Bonds and the Endesa Chile Euro Bond, partially offset by the increase of 

bonds due to the issuance made by Autopista del Sol, equivalent to $92,355 million.

  Minority interest decreased by $22,968 million due to a decrease in shareholders’ equity because of the losses for the accounting 

period 2002, offset by an increase in the equity of the foreign affiliates due to the methodology of booking the non-monetary 

liabilities (equity) in historical dollars.

  Regarding shareholder’s equity, it should be stated that it decreased by $208.982 compared to December, 2001. This variation 

is explained mainly by the recognition of the loss for the period of $ 223,748 million, the increase in shortfall in tax revenue  

by $5,830 million, partially offset by an increase in reserves by $20,597.

Liquidity ratio at December, 2002 is 0.57, showing a worsening of 0.14 points compared to the same date the year before.  
Such worsening is because there is less than one year left for the maturity dates of the Endesa Chile Internacional Bond por 
MM$ 400 Euros, the Pehuenche Bond for MM US$ 170 and, at the Cayman Branch of Enersis, the bank debt for MM US$ 460, 
which were transferred to the short term. 

  The company is negotiating with the Banks for the refinancing of its debt which will mature in the following years, therefore, 

once such operation is performed, the liquidity ratio will substantially improve.

  The indebtedness ratio, which at December 31, 2002 was 1.50 times higher than in the same period of 2001, shows an 
increase of 0.09 points.  The increase is basically due to the effect of the exchange rate, because a great portion of the debt 
is indexed to the US dollar, and to the equity reduction due to the loss in the accounting period.

  On the other side, return on investment is (22,25%), compared to the same date the year before when it reached 3.47%.  This 
decrease in return is the result of the loss obtained at December 2002, compared to the profits obtained at the same date the 
year before, going from a profit of $ 42,154 million to a loss of $223,748 million. 

  Return on assets changed from 0.33% in December, 2001 to (1.77%) in December, 2002. This is basically explained by the 

decrease in the profits of the period.

  Operating activities generated a net positive cash flow of Ch$ 627,783 million, 12% greater than year 2002. This flow is 

mainly related to a loss for the period of Ch$ 223,748 million, plus net charges to income that do not represent cash flow for 

Ch$ 836,377 million that correspond mainly to Depreciation by Ch$ 454,471 million and Amortization of Negative and Positive 

Goodwill for Ch$ 394,096 million. 

  Financing activities produced a negative cash flow of Ch$ 285,040 million mainly due to loan payment for Ch$ 1,094,546 

million, dividend payment for Ch$ 100,446 million, Bonds payment for Ch$ 29,347 million and capital reduction in subsidiaries 

for Ch$ 119,287 million. These were partially compensated by loans received and Bonds issued fur Ch$ 978,914 million and 

Ch$ 131,515 million, respectively. 

Investment activities generated a net negative cash flow of Ch$ 336,879 million, basically explained by the addition of 

fixed assets by Ch$ 317,915 million, here it is worth mentioned Endesa Chile’ investment in Ralco for Ch$ 122,725 million. 

Other important factors in Investment Activities are, investment in subsidiaries, basically Central Fortaleza in Brazil, for 

Ch$ 15,480 million, investments in financial instruments for Ch$ 724 million and other disbursements for Ch$ 35,935 million. 

These were partially compensated by the sale of fixed assets for Ch$ 22,605 million and other income for Ch$ 18,556 

million.

4.   BOOK VALUE AND ECONOMIC VALUE OF THE ASSETS

  Among the most important assets, we can mention the following: 

  The values for fixed assets are adjusted according to the accounting criteria established by the Superintendencia de Valores 
y Seguros (S.V.S., Superintendence of Securities and Insurance) in Resolutions Nos. 550 and 566 of 1985.  In the case of 
Sociedad Extranjera Inversiones Distrilima S.A., the fixed asset values were adjusted according to the exception criterium 
established in Technical Bulletin No. 45 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G. (Chilean Accounting Association), a rule 
in force at the time when the investment was made and which was not modified by Technical Bulletin No.51 which replaced 
the former.

  Depreciation is calculated on the updated value of the property according to the remaining years of useful life of each piece 

of property.

Investments in related companies are presented updated to their proportional equity value.  In the case of foreign companies, 
as of the second quarter of 1998, this methodology has been applied on financial statements prepared according to Technical 
Bulletin No.64 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G., and the intangible values are price level restated and amortized 
according to the dispositions of Technical Bulletin No.55 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A. G.

  According to Oficio Circular No. 150 of January 31, 2003 of S.V.S., the company has evaluated the recovery of the assets 
associated to its investments at the closing date of the financial statements, by applying the accounting principles generally 
accepted in Chile, which are Technical Bulletins No.33 for fixed assets and, according to the ranking defined in Technical 
Bulletin No. 56, NIC 36 has been applied for goodwill and negative goodwill related to such investments.

  Assets expressed in foreign currency are presented at the exchange rate effective at the closing of the period.

Investments in financial instruments in repos are presented according to their purchase value plus the proportion of the 
corresponding interests according to the implicit rate for each operation.

  Accounts and documents to be collected from related companies are classified according to their maturity dates into short- 
and long-term documents. The operations are adjusted to fairness conditions similar to those customarily prevailing in the 
market. 

In summary, the assets are shown updated according to generally accepted accounting principles and rules, and to the 
instructions issued by the Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros, as disclosed in Note 2 to 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 11, 2002, we have examined the Consolidated Financial 

Statements of Enersis S.A. for period between January 1 and December 31, 2002.

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.

d.  Dissolution of investment vehicles

  At December 31, 2002, Empresa Eléctrica de Panamá S.A. and Interocean Development Inc. were liquidated and absorbed 

by Agencia Enersis Cayman.

  As a result of the liquidation of Empresa Eléctrica Panamá S.A., Agencia Enersis Cayman received 296,633,449,926 shares 

in Companhia de Electricidade do Rio de Janeiro, thus increasing its interest to 25.41%, and as a result of the liquidation 

of Interocean Development Inc., 15,681,945,734 shares were received from Investluz, thus increasing the direct interest to 

15.61%.

e.  Debenture capitalization in Cerj

  On July 11, 2002, the company Luz de Río Ltda. and Endesa Internacional Energía Ltda., holders of convertible bonds 

issued by Companhía de Electricidade do Río de Janeiro, exercised the option to capitalize their investment. To that effect, 

420,705,127,532 no par value shares were issued.

f.  Recoverability of investment

  Enersis and its local subsidiaries have carried out an analysis of the book values of their property, plant and equipment and of 

the companies in which it has invested abroad.  This analysis is motivated by the appearance of negative circumstances in the 

economies of the region’s countries and by the fact that the property, plant and equipment in these countries are measured in 

US dollars.  The analysis consisted of evaluating both the recoverability of property, plant and equipment of these companies’, 

and the recorded goodwill and negative goodwill, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Chile. 

  The property, plant and equipment recoverability analysis in these companies, as explained in Note 2j, was carried out 

considering that when there is evidence that the company’s operations do not permanently have sufficient earnings to cover 

all costs, including the depreciation of property, plant and equipment taken as a whole, and when the book value of said 

assets exceeds their realization value, these values must be written down to recoverable amounts by charging non operating 

income.

The results of this analysis determined that no adjustments affecting the Company and its Subsidiaries’ book values of property, 

plant and equipment are required.

g.  Situation in Argentina

In Argentina, at the end of 2001, as a result of the serious economic crisis, a change in the economic model and in the law 

of convertibility was implemented with the promulgation of new National Government regulations. This situation gave rise to, 

among other consequences: devaluation of the Argentinean peso with respect to the US dollar and the pesification of certain 

assets and liabilities recorded in foreign currency in said country, pesification of public service tariffs, introduction of deposit 

withdrawal limitations in financial institutions, limitations to make certain transfers abroad for capital services and financial 

loan interest without prior authorization of the Central Bank of the Republic of Argentina.

  Considering the above mentioned unstable environment, the company performed an evaluation of the recoverability of its 

investments in Argentinean companies.  Management believes that the evolution of the aforementioned measures will not 

result in significant adjustments other than those recognized in these financial statements.

  At December 31, 2002 the investment in these companies represents 5.2% of total assets of the company and equity in income 

of investees was recognized for M$2,258,300.

c.  Recoverability of goodwill

  To carry out the analysis of the recoverability of goodwill and negative goodwill on investments abroad, as explained in Note 

2 k, the Company used International Accounting Standard (IAS) N°36.

  The analysis determined that the impairment of goodwill and negative goodwill in the companies, related to investments in 

Argentina and Brazil, is 100%, as, when comparing cash flows generated by the companies in said countries, such flows do 

not cover the recorded goodwill and negative goodwill.  Thus, these balances have been fully amortized, resulting in a higher 

net charge to income for the period of ThCh$53,116,770, which is included in goodwill and negative goodwill amortization in 

the income statement.

Holding Limited to designate a Regular Director and an Alternate Director in the Argentinean company Distrilec Inversora 

S.A., a company holding Class “A” shares of Empresa Distribuidora Sur S.A. (Edesur S.A.), and on a subsidiary basis, for 

the event that said Court estimates that PCI Power Edesur Holding Limited lacks such right, declare that Grupo Enersis and 

Grupo Pecom, former Pérez Companc, have the same number of directors in Distrilec Inversora S.A.

  The claim was answered opportunely by the Company on August 4, 2000.  Together with the answer to the aforementioned 

claim, Enersis S.A. presented a reconventional claim against the claimants, that is, against Pecom S.A. and PCI Power Edesur 

Holding Limited, in order to request the annulment of various agreements entered into by the parties.  This reconvention was 

answered by the reconventional defendants on October 13, 2000.  On December 4, 2000, Grupo Enersis filed its arguments 

expansion writ and the answer to the reply of the reconventional defendants.

  On December 6, 2000, the reconventional defendants, in an “Additional Statements” writ, request, among other things that, in 

case the reconventional claim lodged by Grupo Enersis is accepted, that a damages indemnity be declared in its favor.  The 

reconventional defendants have provisionally estimated this possible and required indemnity in an amount between US$180 

and US$200 million.

  On April 8, 2001 a Minutes of Mission was signed establishing the unquestionable facts, the controversial facts, the parties’ 

aims and the matters on which the Court will pronounce a judgment.  On June 14, 2001 the parties submitted their evidence 

presentation writs.

  On August 27 2001 presentation of the offered witnesses’ affidavits ceased.  The testimonial audience was carried out on 

November 12, 2001, in the city of Montevideo.  On December 14, 2001 the parties presented their closing allegations and on 

December 20 the Court officially closed the Arbitration proceeding.

  On September 6, 2002 the Final award dated September 2, 2002 the parties were notified, substantively establishing that 

Grupo Pecom and Grupo Enersis maintain the right to designate the same number of directors in the Distrilec Inversora S.A.  

Board and rejecting the contravention claim of Grupo Enersis.  It also rejects the indemnity amounting between US$180 and 

200 million claimed by Grupo Pecom against Grupo Enersis.

  The Final Award has been impugned opportunely through an annulment appeal filed before Uruguayan Justice on September 

18, 2002, based on that it has gross procedural vices that invalidate it. The filing of said appeal suspends compliance with 

the verdict.  On December 12, 2002 Pecom Energía answered said impugnation.

ii.  Court : Honorable resolutive commission

  Process number : 577-99

  Cause : Requirements of the “Fiscal Nacional Económico” against Enersis S.A. for the increase of ownership in Endesa-

Chile S.A., asserting the transaction has considerably increased the vertical integration in the electric sector, affecting free 

competition.

  Process status: The discussion stage has ended and the corresponding complaints have been made. The case is now in the 

sentencing stage. It is important to note the Commission decided not to receive the case in trial. Additionally, the petitions 

of the Fiscalía Nacional Económica have changed since the beginning of the case, limiting the request to the inability of 

Enersis S.A. and Endesa Chile to have common directors and the necessity for these companies to hire different external 

auditors. 

  Amounts involved: Undetermined. 

  On October 30, 2002 the Resolutive Commission pronounced sentence on the case, and which is summarized as follows: 

a) 

“The position of principal or alternate director of Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., or of some of them 

with Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., shall be held by different and independent individuals. A 

director will be regarded as independent when holding positions or carrying out employment or activities in a position of 

dependence of any of these companies or of any of its directors; and 

b) 

“The external audit of Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., and Chilectra S.A. or Compañía Eléctrica 

del Río Maipo S.A., which, pursuant to current open stock company legislation, will be performed by different external 

auditing firms, having any relationship or tie of any nature between them. The same stipulation will be applied should the 

bylaws of said companies contemplate the appointment of account inspectors;”

c) 

“By the exercise of its official faculties, the following measures will be adopted and in effect until the issue by the Resolutive 

Commission of a resolution to the contrary:

“Enersis S.A., Elesur S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., 

may not enter into or execute any operation the objective of which would be the merger of the companies controlled by the 

Enersis group, whose activity would be the generation and distribution of electricity, with Enersis S.A. having to maintain 

the development of both segments separately, through different companies representing independent business units; 

and” 

“Enersis S.A., Empresa Nacional de Electricidad S.A., Chilectra S.A. and Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., shall 

continue to be subject to supervision of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance and comply with provisions 

applicable to open stock companies, even if they have ceased to have the staus of open stock companies;”

d) 

“In exercising the powers established in Decree Law Nº 211 article 17, letter b), this Resolutive Commission issues the 

following general instructions which any individual who, by application of  Ministry of Mining Electric Code article 240, 

Decree Nº 317, of 1998, must publicly open to bid  the supply and load  in the terms of said norm:

e)  All those companies, associations, or company consortiums with existing or potential supply capacity will be able to 

participate in the supply bidding processes;

f)  The bidding conditions shall allow the applicants to present bids for the total amount of the supply intended to be contracted 

or for a part of the energy blocks and load open to bidding, and will include in their entirety the contracts which will be 

signed by the parties to execute the delivery of the supply bid; and,

g)  The receipt and opening of bids will be public.  The bidding conditions to be established, as well as the result of the awarding, 

shall be reported to the Economic National Legal Department simultaneously upon the execution of said acts.

h)  Any other measure of a cautionary or precautionary nature taken in these cases are invalidated in particular, that ordered in 

Resolution N° 542 numeral 1, dated May 10, 1999, as evidenced on page 132 of the precautionary measures record.”

On November 6, 2002, Messrs. Briones and Bosselin filed an appeal as a complaint against the aforementioned sentence, 

which is currently in the procedural phase. Together with filing the appeal, the petitioners requested that an injunction 

order be decreed, which was issued on November 14, 2002, thus suspending the sentence’s effects.

Amount: Not determined.

iii. Accusation filed by Empresa Nacional de Telecomunicaciones S.A. (ENTEL) before the Resolutive Commission against Enersis 

S.A., started by presentment dated May 13, 2002.  The aim was to inform the Commission about the data transmission services 

provided through the electric networks by Compañía Americana de Multiservicios Limitada, Enersis S.A.’s subsidiary, so as 

it took the necessary protection measures to guarantee free competition.

  The Commission requested the Telecommunications Under-department some information, which was provided in a report 

dated May 31, 2002.

  On June 5, 2002, Enersis S.A. answered ENTEL’s presentations, requesting that the precautionary measures requested by 

ENTEL be rejected as they are contrary to law and unnecessary and, also, because if they were accepted they would establish 

an entry barrier to the industry and postpone the investments necessary for rendering the aforementioned services.

The issuance of a report by the Economic National Legal Department is pending, as well as the resolution of the precautionary 

measures requested by ENTEL.

 On July 19 of 2002, the Resolutive Commission acknowledged the Economic Legal National Department report, resolving to 

thoroughly investigate the matter and rejecting the precautionary measured requested.

  On last September 25, the case was heard and the trial turned into judicial decision stage.

iv. Court : 2nd Labor Court of Santiago

  Process number : 6061-2001

  Cause : Complaint filed for severance pay for years of service on December 19, 2001 by Mr. Guillermo Calderón Ortega 

against Enersis S.A.

  Process status : First petition sentencing stage

  Amounts involved: ThCh$52,858

v.  The Ordinary Labor Trial, titled “Acevedo Bravo, Efraín and Others with Enersis S.A.”, case list N°4.175-2002, heard before 

the 4th Labor Court for Santiago, arising from the claim for the payment of 2% monthly contribution made to finance the 

claimants’ conventional severance indemnity. The claim was notified on 11/06/2002, against which dilatory exceptions were 

opposed on 12/09/2002 and the claim was answered on a subsidiary basis. The case is currently in the proof stage.

vi. Court : 25th Civil Court of Santiago

  Process number : 3151-00

  Cause : Complaint filed for compensation of damages by Mrs. Odette Legrand Halcartegaray against Enersis S.A..

  Process status : First petition sentencing stage 

  Amounts involved: ThCh$50,000

vii. Economic protection appeal, filed before the Court of Appeals for Santiago, List N°4591-2002, for Compañía de Teléfonos 

Complejo Manufacturero de Equipos Telefónicos S.A.C.I., CMET, against Enersis S.A.. The appeal was filed on 08/27/02 by 

CMET against Enersis S.A., which seemed to be based on the fact that Enersis S.A., through various acts, facts or omissions, 

would have breached article 19 N°21 of the Political Constitution of the Republic, preventing CMET from developing its 

commercial activities.

  On 09.17.02, Enersis S.A. informed to Court,  as requested, carrying out all the discharges it deemed reasonable in accordance 

to law, expressly rejected CMET’s accusations because of their unfounded nature. 

  To date, the appeal is pending for its hearing and judgment, which is estimated to take place during March. 

viii. Chilean Internal Revenue Service review of taxable income for the 2000, 2001 and 2002 tax years, and the tax trial in first 

petition for the difference of First Category Income Tax and Reintegration of Monthly Tax Prepayments for absorbed net income 

in the amount of ThCh$62,400, corresponding to the 1998 tax year.

ix. First instance tax suit, that is, before the Internal Revenue Service, for a tax difference in First Category Income Tax and 

Repayment of Monthly Provisional Payments for absorbed earnings, in the amount of Th$1,461,000 corresponding to the 

1999 tax This proceeding is in the discussion stage.

d. Restrictions:

•   The Company’s loan agreements establish an obligation to comply with the following financial ratios, on a consolidated 

level:

•  The ratio between debt and debt plus equity, not exceeding 0.7;

•  The ratio between operational cash flow and payment of debt interest, not less than 2.4;  

•  Net tangible equity not less than UF45 million; 

•  Assets corresponding to companies whose business is regulated, not less than 50% of total consolidated assets. 

  As of December 31, 2001 and 2002 all these obligations have been met.

•   As a common and habitual practice for some bank loan debts and also in capital markets, a substantial portion of Enersis 

S.A.’s financial indebtedness is subject to cross-failure provisions.  Some failures of Endesa-Chile or of its subsidiaries, if 

not corrected in time (as to those specific provisions allowing a period of time to correct the problem), might result in the 

cross-failure at Endesa-Chile and Enersis S.A. level., and, in this case, some sixty percent of Enersis S.A.’s consolidated 

liabilities might eventually become on demand. On the other hand, certain failures of a distribution subsidiary, if not corrected 

in time, would not affect Endesa-Chile, and the amount at risk of Enersis S.A.’s consolidated liabilities would decrease by 

thirty percent.  

•   Some loan agreements include clauses should the risk category of the debt expressed in US dollars fall below the “investment 

grade” level, according to the risk classification agency determining the applicable margin of the interest rate (which, for practical 

purposes hereof, is S & P).  Should the long-term US dollar unsecured debt fall into a “non-investment grade” category, or 

below BBB – according to the nomenclature used by S & P, then, the obligation to prepay all the outstanding principal existing 

under these loans within the following sixty days, unless agreed upon otherwise by the parties, arises. At December 31, 2002, 

US$1,464 million of the company’s borrowings and US$718 million of Endesa-Chile’s loan agreements, include compulsory 

prepayment clauses for the mentioned circumstances. 

   There are no clauses in the loan agreements penalizing the Company if it is ranked below the “Investment Grade” level.  

Because of the above, no provisions have been recorded for said item.

•   At December 31, 2002 these obligations and restrictions have been fully met.

capital increase was approved for Cerj, in an amount of ThUS$105,000, approximately. 

This increase took place on January 10, 2003, through the issuance and subscription of 770,833,333,333 new ordinary shares, 

at a value of R$0.48 in one thousand-share batches, totaling the ThUS$100,000 approved at the Meeting, with the Company’s 

capital amounting to ThUS$259,085.

  With this operation, the percentage of direct participation held by Enersis S.A., through its agency, will increase from 20.38% 

to 40.03%.

•   As a relevant event on January 15, 2003, it was reported that Enersis S.A.’s Board of Directors, at a special meeting held on 

that day, agreed to take note that the Company will make accounting adjustments and special charges in its balance sheet 

for its investments in its Chilean and foreign subsidiaries for a total of US$387 million, in its equivalence in Chilean pesos, 

these special adjustments being reflected in 2002 income.

   Such special adjustments and charges have no impact on the Company’s cash flow and will be reflected in Enersis’ 2002 

financial statements.  The special adjustments and charges made as well as the provisions made at November 30, 2002, are

In view of the above, and having considered these provisions, the effect of the adjustments and special charges on the 

company’s income will amount to the equivalent in Chilean pesos of US$290 million, approximately.

affects Endesa España, states the following: 

 ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

271

270
270

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
“No extraordinary rightoffs, such as those already carried out by other national and international companies, are foreseen. 

The rightoffs have been made in each quarter by adjusting the value of the investments according to the devaluation of the 

Latin American currencies, additionally  supplying the provisions deemed necessary. This has meant an accumulated rightoff, 

from the time when these investments were made, of 2,700 million euros of the Latin American investment. The book value 

of the Latin American assets reasonably corresponds to the market value of same.

  Businesses in Latin America show a general positive behavior during the year, as reflected in the operating result of the Latin 

American business which was increased by 6% in the first half of the year compared to the previous year. Without taking 

Argentina into consideration, the operating result has increased by 25%. 

  Brazil. The impact caused by the devaluation of the Real is very limited, because 55% of the debt of our Brazilian subsidiaries 

is denominated in Reales. The remainder is in US dollars, financing a company, CIEN, whose income is linked to the US dollar. 

The strong increase in the demand during July and the full operation of the second interconnection line between Argentina and 

Brazil will contribute to improve the profitability of our operations between these two countries. Additionally, US$ 62 million 

have already been collected from the BNDES loan due to the electric rationing.

  Chile. The recovery of the hydraulic production in Chile is largely contributing to a strong operating improvement during the 

year. The operating result for the generation business in Chile was increased by 55% during the first half.

  Argentina. Provision has been made for 100% of Endesa’s investment in that country. Taken together, the Argentinean 

companies have a positive operating result, which is higher than the interests corresponding to the debt. 

Indebtedness and liquidity of the Latin American companies.

-   Neither Enersis nor Endesa (Chile) have liquidity problems.

-   The Enersis group has reduced its indebtedness by 1,140 million euros during the first half.

-   These companies may, in the short term, dispose assets for a minimal amount of 600 million euros which, taken together 

with the debt associated with these assets, will represent a total reduction in indebtedness of 1,000 million euros.

-    The companies have closed August with a positive cash situation of US$ 460 million, and maintain an absolutely normal 

financial situation with the exception of Argentina, where the general situation of the country is affecting the financial 

activities. Notwithstanding, the Endesa subsidiaries are serving the interest payments and are obtaining extensions for 

the maturities of the principal of their debts.

-   Endesa (España) would be willing to capitalize the loan granted to Enersis for an amount of 1,440 million euros, which 

would represent an important improvement of its equity situation.

-   Standard & Poors has ratified in last July, the BBB+ rating for the long term debt of Enersis and Endesa Chile.

-   Finally, the debt of Enersis with Endesa has no warranty or coverage and there are no “cross-default” clauses with said 

debt.

  Financial strengthening plan

In the Extraordinary Meeting held on October 4, 2002, the Board of Directors of Enersis S.A. agreed, upon unanimous vote 

of its present members, to announce that a financial and economic strengthening plan has been approved for Enersis S.A., 

intended to strengthen its equity, via improving its financial structure and allowing the Company to face the regional situation  

which affects its investments. Said plan contemplates the following operations:

 ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

273

272

272

 
 
 
 
 
a)  Increase of capital: The Board of Directors of Enersis has decided to initiate a capital increase process for an amount of 

up to US$ 1,500 million, which includes cash and/or financial loan contributions. Said process will involve summoning, in 

one of the following meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company, an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting which will 

decide on the terms of this capital increase, anticipating that this meeting should take place during the first four months   

of 2003;

b)  Disposal of the following assets:

(1)  Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A. distributing company. 

(2)  Inmobiliaria Manso de Velasco Limitada real estate company.

(3)  Several real properties owned by Enersis S.A. and its subsidiaries.

  Regarding the sale of Compañía Eléctrica del Río Maipo S.A., and considering that it is an asset deemed essential within 

the policy of investment and financing of Enersis, said divestment should be authorized by the Extraordinary Shareholders’ 

Meeting which will be summoned in due time.

  Regarding the real properties owned by the subsidiaries of Enersis S.A., this Company will propose the divestment of same 

to the pertinent companies.

  The amount expected to be raised through the process of divestment of assets contemplated in the financial and economic 

strengthening plan of Enersis S.A. will be assigned to reduce the financial indebtedness of the Company;

c)  Refinancing the intercompany loans of some of the subsidiaries with Enersis S.A.: Part of the Enersis financing with its 

subsidiaries will be substituted by loans directly contracted in the market. This will result in a substantial improvement in 

the leverage  (ratio between debt and equity) of the balance sheet of Enersis S.A.; and 

d)  Improvement in free cash flow. Enersis S.A. will continue to enforce the efficiency measures for operations and investments, 

in order to increase its yearly operating consolidated free cash flows by at least US$ 130 million, achievable in a three-year 

term. These higher flows will be in addition to those derived from demand variations and unit margins for energy sales and 

purchases.

  On the other hand, the above mentioned capital increase will benefit the company with an additional increase in cash flow 

due to the consequent reduction in financial expenses.  

  All of these measures should allow a reduction in the indebtedness of Enersis, S.A. by up to US$ 2,200 million, as well as the 

attainment of a ratio of debt/funds of its own of about 0.6.

The Board of Directors agreed to authorize the Management of the Company to propose to the Board of Directors the appointment 

of an investor bank to conduct the above mentioned alienation processes, as well as to adopt all of the measures leading to 

the adequate materialization of the above described operations.

  Study of stock placement

  As of November 7, Enersis S.A. has initiated negotiations with the following investment banks, in order to study the possibility 

of placing shares in foreign markets: Deutsche Bank, Salomon Smith Barney and Santander Investment, leading the process 

jointly.

Unconsolidated Management Analysis

For the years ended December 2001 and 2002

  ECONOMIC-FINANCIAL SUMMARY 

  As of December, 2002, Net Income registered a loss of Ch$ 223,748 million, compared to the profit of Ch$ 42,154 million as of 

December, 2001. This decrease is basically related to the Accounting Adjustments made by the Company for our investments 

in Argentina and Brasil.  In any event, it is important to highlight that these one time adjustments, are merely accounting issues, 

and do not represent cash flow reduction. Therefore, these will not affect the liquidity of the Company. 

  Operating Income amounted to Ch$ 532,644 million, which represents a decrease of 29.4% respect to the year 2001. This fall 

is mainly explained by the economic instability in Argentina and the strong devaluation in Brazil. It is important to highlight, 

however, the improved Operating Income achieved during this period by Chilean subsidiaries. 

In this respect, this is clearly shown when isolating the effect of subsidiaries in Argentina, in which case the Operating Income 

decreased only 8.6%, equivalent to Ch$ 50,009 million, as shown in the Pro-Forma Income Statement. 

In the Distribution Business, it is important to highlight the improvement of 1.6% in consolidated Physical Sales, reaching 

48,955 GWh, equivalent to 767 GWh of higher sales compared to 2001. This shows the recovery of some key ratios of the 

business. On the other hand, physical sales in generation, decrease mainly in Argentina, from 12,988 GWh to 7,897 GWh. 

  Also in the Distribution Business, the number of clients in increase by 2.8% or 275,000 new customers, equivalent to add in 

a year, a company like Río Maipo. This growth in clients, jointly with the recovery of the demand, makes us to believe that 

sales will increase during the year 2003.

  Another important fact in the operating side is the labor productivity, that increase 2.2%, from 1,379 clients per employee to 

1,409 clients per employee, confirming the positive trend shown in the last three years.

  Energy losses, another key variable in the distribution business, increase from 11.9% to 12.1%, primarily due to the increase 

in Edesur, offset by the decrease in Codensa, from 11.8% to 10.3%, as well as most of the other subsidiaries.  

  Ch$ 573,508 million of lower operating revenues, were offset by a decrease of operating costs in 14.6%, equivalent to 

Ch$ 295,262 million, additionally Ch$ 56,346 million of lower administrative and selling expenses, equivalent to a 20%. 

Excluding our Argentinean subsidiaries, the decrease in operating revenues have been only 2.2%.

  Net Financial Result improved by Ch$ 41,957 million or 10.6%, respect December 2001. This variation is the result of lower 

interest rates, as well as the decrease of indebtness measured in dolars.

 ENERSIS 20 02   ANNUAL REPORT

275

274

274

 
 
 
 
In respect to the financial area, the company lunched in October a Financial Strengthening Plan. Said plan contemplates the 

following operations:

a)   A capital increase process for an amount of up to US$ 1,500 million

b)   Disposal of assets for an amount of up to US$ 1,000 million

c)   Debt payments from subsidiaries to Enersis for an amount of US$ 500 million

d)   Improvement in free cash flow for an amount of US$ 130 million, achievable in a three-year term. 

  Up to date, Enersis and its subsidiaries, are working hard to successfully achieve the different tasks previously mentioned. 

In relation to the capital increase, it is expected to finish as soon as possible the definition of the main characteristics of the 

issuance (size, price, date of preemptive offering rights, etc.) 

In terms of the divestment of assets, as of January 27th., 13 offers had been received for Rio Maipo and Canutillar. From the 

best offers it is expected to end the selling process by the end of March.

  On the other hand, Enersis is carrying out a refinancing process which is expected to be finished during the coming 

months.

In relation to the net result coming from investments, this grew from a loss of Ch$ 10,699 million up to a profit of Ch$ 8,264 

million, as consequence of a higher profit on investments in related companies by Ch$ 11,367 million, combined with a lower 

loss -in the same concept- by Ch$ 7,596 million.

  Details of main variations on P&L and balance sheet, as well as a deeper analysis of our main business can be found in the 

following pages, under the chapter Financial Statement Analysis, where a comparison is made between December 31st., 

2002, and December 31st., 2001

(*) Earning before taxes, interests, depreciation, amortization and extraordinary items.

  Non-Operating Income shows a loss of Ch$ 215,644 million, which represents a decrease of Ch$ 266,612 million compared 

with the year 2001.

  Net Financial Result improved by Ch$ 27,626 million compared with the same period last year. This variation is the result of 

higher financial income of Ch$ 10,100 million due to the increase in accounts receivables to related companies, lower financial 

expenses for Ch$ 17,536 million due to lower interest rates on the international markets. 

Investment in Related Companies registered a net loss of Ch$ 8,443 million, a negative variation of Ch$ 247,073 million 

when compared to the net profit of Ch$ 238,630 million registered in December 2001. Principally due to the lower results of 

our investments in Chilectra, Endesa, Manso de Velasco for Ch$ 169,097 million, in Edesur, Distrilec and Enersis Argentina 

for Ch$ 36,281, in Investluz and Cerj for Ch$ 32,511 million, in Enersis International for Ch$ 17,897 million and in Luz de 

Bogotá for Ch$ 4,124 million, compensated by better results in Luz de Río for Ch$ 9,658 million. 

  Amortization on Positive Goodwill for the year 2002, amounted to Ch$ 107,889 million, an increase of Ch$ 57,418 million 

in respect to December 2001. The increase in the amortization is related to the acceleration of amortization of the net balance 

of Negative and Positive goodwill of investments in Argentina and Brazil, representing a higher charge of Ch$ 53,117 million 

and the increase of the positive goodwill due to the adquisition of Chilectra and Rio Maipo’s shares during the last months of 

the year  2001. 

  Net Other Non-Operating Income decreased by Ch$ 8,906 million, reaching a profit of Ch$ 4,310 million as of December 

2002.

 ENERSIS 2002   ANNUA L REPORT

277

276

  This increase is mainly due to:

•  

An increase in the amortization of the differed charge as a consequence of the equity change in Cerj of Ch$ 17,020 

million.  

•  

•  

A decrease in the profit as a consequence of the repurchase of bonds for Ch$ 5,531 million.

A decrease in income from forwards and swaps for Ch$ 4,850 million.

  This was partially compensated by:

•  

•  

Lower losses for dividends distributed to Chilectra de Argentina for Ch$ 15,484 million.

An increase in profits due to the conversion effect to related companies for Ch$ 9,133 million.

  Price Level Restatement and  Exchange Differences show a net profit of Ch$ 19,159 million. This was caused principally 

by the effects of the nominal devaluation of 6,76% of the Ch$ against the US$, compared to a devaluation of 11.04% as the 

same date last year. 

Interest rate risks 

  As of December 2002, 22% of the total debt was expressed in variable terms (mainly Libor USD and Chilean TAB), compared 

to a 41 % as of December 2001. 

 The reduction in the percentage of debt at variable rates during this year is explained basically by the refinancing of obligations 

(previously at variable terms) into fixed rates, and by hedge operations of Libor US$ rate for  US$ 700 million.

  Considerating de debt of all subsidiaries, the company structure will be 30% for the year 2002 and 42% for the year 2001. 

  Exchange risk 

The Company’s exposure to an exchange risk is derived from the assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, mainly 

US$. 

  As of December 2002, 62% of the debt was denominated in US$. Considering the US$/Ch$ hedging policy mentioned below, 

the percentage of the debt denominated in US$ is 60%. 

  As of December 2001, Enersis had 60% of its total debt expressed in US$. With the US$/Ch$ forward position, the weight of 

this debt in US$ was reduced to 56%. 

The reason behind the largest part of our debt being denominated in US$ is the fact that an important proportion of our revenues 

is directly or indirectly related to US$.  

  Currently, the exchange risk is managed on a consolidated basis, taking into consideration the part of these risks that our 

Chilean subsidiaries have not covered. The company’s policy is set on maintaining between 70% and 85% of the booked 

exposure to exchange risk covered. 

The current exchange exposure between the Chilean Peso and the US Dollar is controlled with financial derivative instruments, 

basically USD/CLP forward contracts, to cover the exchange risk.  As of December 2002, 2001 Enersi has forward for US$ 47 

million and US$ 164 million, respectively.

  Total assets of the Company show a decrease of $ 307,899 million compared to the same period the year before. Mainly due 

to:

•   Decrease in investments in related companies by $ 129,558 million compared to the previous year, primarily due to the 

liquidation of  the investment vehicles in Panamá. On the other hand, a decrease in the investment on Chilectra and 

Endesa, offset by a increase in the investment on Edesur, Distrilec, Central Generadora Termeléctrica Fortaleza and 

Enersis International.

•   Decrease in positive and negative goodwill, with a net effect of $ 57,594 million.

•   Decrease of $ 53,951 million in short and long term accounts receivable to related companies.

   Due and payable liabilities show a net decrease of $ 98,917 million in respect to the previous year, equivalent to 3,33%, 

mainly explained by the decrease in accounts payable to related companies for $ 114,811 million, forward contracts for 

$ 113,160 million and Bank Obligations for $ 10,840 million, partially offset by the exchange variation between December 

2002 and 2001, with a net effect of $ 66,942 million. Additionally an increase of other long-term liabilities for $ 38,021. 

  Regarding shareholder’s equity, it should be stated that it decreased by $ 208,982 compared to December, 2001. This 

variation is explained mainly by the recognition of the loss for the period of $ 223,748 million, the increase in shortfall in tax 

revenue by $ 5,830 million, partially offset by an increase in other reserves for $ 20,597 million.

Liquidity ratio at December, 2002 is 0.70, showing a worsening of 0.09 points compared to the same date the year before.  Such 

worsening is because of the Company’s higher commitments with banks in the short term, affecting the working capital. 

The indebtedness ratio, which at December 31, 2002 was 2.85 times higher than in the same period of 2001, shows an increase 

of 0.41 points.  The increase is basically due to the effect of the equity reduction of 17.2% due to the loss in the accounting 

period.

  On the other side, return index were negatively affected by the decrease in the profits of the period. 

3.  PRINCIPAL CASH FLOWS

  Operating activities generated a net negative cash flow of Ch$ 10,278 million. This flow is mainly related to a loss for the 

period of Ch$ 223,748 million, plus net charges to income that do not represent cash flow for Ch$ 140,123 million, a decrease 

of assets that affect the cash flow for $ 30,775 million as a consequence of dividends from related companies and the increase 

of liabilities that affect the cash flow for $ 42,571 million, primarily interests.

  Financing activities produced a negative cash flow of Ch$ 82,571 million mainly due to loans payment to related companies 

for Ch$ 121,084 million, bank payments and bonds payments for Ch$ 83,879. These were partially compensated by loans 

received for $ 66,040 million and loans received by related companies for Ch$ 56,353 million.

4.  BOOK VALUE AND ECONOMIC VALUE OF THE ASSETS

  Among the most important assets, we can mention the following: 

  The values for fixed assets are adjusted according to the accounting criteria established by the Superintendencia de Valores 

y Seguros (S.V.S., Superintendence of Securities and Insurance) in Resolutions Nos. 550 and 566 of 1985.  In the case of 

Sociedad Extranjera Inversiones Distrilima S.A., the fixed asset values were adjusted according to the exception criterium 

established in Technical Bulletin No. 45 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G. (Chilean Accounting Association), a rule 

in force at the time when the investment was made and which was not modified by Technical Bulletin No.51 which replaced 

the former.

  Depreciation is calculated on the updated value of the property according to the remaining years of useful life of each.

Investments in related companies are presented updated to their proportional equity value.  In the case of foreign companies, 

as of the second quarter of 1998, this methodology has been applied on financial statements prepared according to Technical 

Bulletin No.64 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G., and the intangible values are price level restated and amortized 

according to the dispositions of Technical Bulletin No.55 of the Colegio de Contadores de Chile A.G.

  According to Oficio Circular No. 150 of January 31, 2003 of S.V.S., the company has evaluated the recovery of the assets 

associated to its investments at the closing date of the financial statements, by applying the accounting principles generally 

accepted in Chile, which are Technical Bulletins No.33 for fixed assets and, according to the ranking defined in Technical 

Bulletin No. 56, NIC 36 has been applied for goodwill and negative goodwill related to such investments.

  Assets expressed in foreign currency are presented at the exchange rate effective at the closing of the period.

Investments in financial instruments in repos are presented according to their purchase value plus the proportion of the 

corresponding interests according to the implicit rate for each operation.

  Accounts and documents to be collected from related companies are classified according to their maturity dates into short- 

and long-term documents. The operations are adjusted to fairness conditions similar to those customarily prevailing in the 

market. 

In summary, the assets are shown updated according to generally accepted accounting principles and rules, and to the 

instructions issued by the Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros, as disclosed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements.
