The company reported a significant growth in distributed energy, with a 6.7% increase compared to Q3 2023, driven by rising incomes and high temperatures.
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter increased by 16% year-over-year, reaching 2.9 billion BRL, primarily due to strong performance in the distribution segment.
Equatorial SA (EQUEY) maintained a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.2 times, demonstrating effective financial management and leverage control.
The company achieved a 12.6% growth in consolidated gross margin, with notable contributions from the distribution segment due to market growth and tariff increases.

Negative

The acquisition of a 15% stake in Sabesp led to an increase in net debt by approximately 4.4 billion BRL, impacting the company's leverage.
Investments decreased by 20% due to the startup of solar parks, which may affect future growth potential in renewable energy.
The transmission segment experienced a 2.6% decline in adjusted regulatory EBITDA, although this was partially offset by adjustments for complementary ABC effects.
There were constraints on wind farm generation, with a 36.2% impact on total generation due to restrictions imposed by the national system operator.
