Note 1 | General information

History and development of the Company

edenor was organized on July 21, 1992 by Executive Order No. 714/92 in connection with the privatization and concession process of the distribution and sale of electric power carried out by

SEGBA.

By means of an International Public Bidding, the PEN awarded 51% of the Company's capital stock, represented by the Class "A" shares, to the bid made by EASA, the parent company of edenor at that time. The award as well as the transfer contract were approved on August 24, 1992 by Executive Order No. 1,507/92 of the PEN.

On September 1, 1992, EASA took over the operations of edenor.

As a consequence of the merger processes of EASA and its parent IEASA with and into CTLL, and, in turn, of the latter with and into PESA, formalized in 2018, at present, PESA is the controlling company of edenor.

The corporate purpose of edenor is to engage in the distribution and sale of electricity within the concession area. Furthermore, among other activities, the Company may subscribe or acquire shares of other electricity distribution companies, subject to the approval of the regulatory agency, assign the use of the network to provide electricity transmission or other voice, data and image transmission services, and render advisory, training, maintenance, consulting, and management services and know-how related to the distribution of electricity both in Argentina and abroad. These activities may be conducted directly by edenor or through subsidiaries or related companies. In addition, the Company may act as trustee of trusts created under Argentine laws.

The Company's economic and financial situation

In the last fiscal year, the Company recorded negative working capital. This situation is due mainly to the suspension of the electricity rate update from February 2019 to date, in spite of the constant increase of the operating costs and the investments necessary, both for the operation of the network and to maintain the quality of the service, in a context of inflation and sustained recession in which the Argentine economy has been since mid-2018. The Company has been significantly affected by the freeze on electricity rates, therefore, its revenues are at December 2018 values, in spite of the high levels of inflation experienced over the last twenty months and the uncertainty we face as to when the update of costs will be finally recognized.

Additionally, this situation was exacerbated by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a severe social, economic and financial impact and whose long-term consequences are uncertain and difficult to assess for the global economy. Most of the world's countries implemented exceptional actions, which had an immediate impact on their economies, as rapidly evidenced by the falls recorded in production and activity indicators. The governments' immediate response to these consequences was the implementation of tax aids to sustain their citizens' income and thereby reduce the risk of a breakdown in the chain of payments, avoiding an economic and financial crisis.

With regard to our country, the Argentine economy was facing a recession, and the outbreak of the pandemic in March 2020 complicated that scenario even more, affecting the Company directly, mainly as a consequence of: (i) increases in the delinquency rate, due to the suspension of both due dates and disconnection actions, and the provision of electricity free of charge, all this for certain customer segments; (ii) the fall in demand during the first months after the pandemic was declared at the local level, as a consequence of a lower industrial activity, partially offset by the increase recorded in residential consumption; (iii) the interruption of the chain of payments; and (iv) the levels of electricity theft.

In this regard, the Company's Board of Directors is currently assessing different alternatives aimed at obtaining the necessary funds to reverse the aforementioned effects.

C O N D E N S E D I N T E R I M

F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S

N O T E S

This whole situation is aggravated by a complex and vulnerable economic context, as reflected by the country's economic conditions described below:

  1. Economic contraction by an estimated 11.8% for 2020 (IMF - October 2020 World Economic Outlook Report), due to both the difficulty in obtaining credit and the effects of the COVID-19;
  1. Increase of both public spending and fiscal deficit;
  1. Declining inflation but still at high levels that are expected to remain over time;
  1. Between January 1 and September 30, 2020, the devaluation of the Argentine peso against the United States dollar amounted to 21%, in accordance with the BNA's rate of exchange;
  1. Imposition of currency restrictions by the monetary authority, which directly affect the value of the foreign currency for certain restricted foreign exchange transactions taking place outside the MULC.

As for the currency restrictions, the BCRA's prior authorization is required for certain transactions, such as the Company's transactions associated with the payment of imports of goods from abroad that are necessary for the provision of the service. These currency restrictions, or those implemented in the future, could affect the Company's ability to access the MULC in order to acquire the foreign currency necessary to face its operating and financial obligations.

Additionally, the enactment, by the end of 2019, of Law No. 27,541 on Social Solidarity and Production Reactivation in the framework of the Economic Emergency, whereby the PEN was authorized to keep electricity rates under federal jurisdiction unchanged for one hundred and eighty days, the ENRE's instruction directing edenor not to increase its electricity rates, and the issuance on June 19, 2020 of Executive Order No. 543 that extended said period for another one hundred and eighty calendar days, postponing the update of the electricity rate schedule, impact directly on the Company's financial soundness.

Despite the previously described situation, it is worth pointing out that, in general terms, the quality of the electricity distribution service has been significantly improved, both in duration and frequency of power cuts. In view of the continuous increase of the costs associated with the provision of the service, as well as the need for additional investments to meet the demand, the Company, as previously mentioned, is analyzing different measures aimed at mitigating the negative effects of this situation on its financial structure, minimizing the impact on the sources of employment, the execution of the investment plan, and the carrying out of the essential operation, maintenance and improvement- related works that are necessary to maintain the provision of the public service, object of the concession, in a satisfactory manner in terms of quality and safety.

It is in this regard that the Company was forced to partially postpone payments to CAMMESA for energy purchased in the Wholesale Electricity Market ("MEM") as from the maturities that have occurred since March 2020; payment obligations which, although the Company has been partially regularizing, as of September 30, 2020 accumulate a principal balance of $ 20,118,862, plus interest and charges for $ 1,264,461.

Taking into consideration that the realization of the measures necessary to reverse the manifested negative trend depends on the occurrence of certain events that are not under the Company's control, the Board of Directors has raised substantial doubt about edenor's ability to continue as a going concern, which may result in the Company's being obliged to defer certain payment obligations or unable to meet expectations for salary increases or the increases recorded in third-party costs.

Nevertheless, these condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern and do not include the effects of the adjustments or reclassifications that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Note 2 | Regulatory framework

At the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements, there exist the following changes with respect to the situation reported by the Company in the Financial Statements as of December 31, 2019, mainly as a consequence of the public health emergency, associated with the effects of the COVID-19, declared in Argentina as from March 20, 2020, the ending of which, as well as its effects, is uncertain as it is dependent on the development of the pandemic.

a) Intervention of the Regulatory Authority

On March 16, 2020, by means of Executive Order No. 277/20, the PEN provided, within the framework of the public emergency and in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 27,541 on Social Solidarity and Production Reactivation, for the intervention of the ENRE until December 31, 2020.

b) Freeze on Electricity Rates

On June 19, 2020, DNU No. 543/2020 was issued, whereby the authority to keep the electricity rates under federal jurisdiction unchanged was extended for an additional term of 180 calendar days.

Nevertheless, at the date of issuance of these financial statements, the Company has duly submitted to the ENRE the adjustment request of its Own Distribution Costs (CPD), pursuant to the provisions of Appendix XV of ENRE Resolution No. 63/2017 "Procedure for determining the electricity rate schedule", in accordance with the following detail:

  1. The CPD adjustment applicable in August 2019 was deferred until January 2020 by means of the
    Electricity Rate Schedule Maintenance Agreement.

The indicated CPD and the other concepts detailed in the "Electricity Rate Schedule Maintenance Agreement" entered into with the Federal Government on September 19, 2019, neither transferred to tariffs nor authorized to be collected by other means accumulate as of September 30, 2020 a total of approximately $ 15,606,000, without considering interest.

As a consequence of the described situation, the Chamber of Deputies gave preliminary approval to the 2021 budget bill, which, in its section 87, provides for a system for the settlement of debts with CAMMESA and/or the MEM that Distribution Companies had accumulated as of September 30, 2020, whether on account of the consumption of energy, power, interest and/or penalties, in accordance with the conditions to be set out by the application authority, which may provide for credits equivalent to up to five times the monthly average bill or to sixty-six percent of the existing debt, whereas the remaining debt is to be paid in up to sixty monthly installments, with a grace period of up to six months, and at the rate in effect in the MEM, reduced by fifty percent. At the date of these condensed interim financial statements, its approval by the Senate is still pending.

  1. Effects related to the COVID-19
    1. Suspension of customer service in commercial offices: on March 21, 2020, by means of Resolution No. 3/2020, the ENRE resolved to instruct distribution companies to: i) immediately suspend customer service, with the closure of all the commercial offices during the mandatory and preventive social isolation period; ii) implement an electronic system to deal with customer commercial proceedings/inquiries and claims; and iii) provide only for the movement of those human resources required for the continuity of the essential provision of the public service of electricity distribution in the technical and operational aspects of their respective areas. Furthermore, by means of ENRE Note dated July 2, 2020, the ENRE reiterated its instruction as to only provide for the movement of those human resources required for the continuity of the essential provision of the public service of electricity distribution in the technical and operational aspects of the respective networks.
    2. Prohibition against the interruption of service provision: on March 25, 2020 the PEN issued DNU No. 311/2020 and its subsequent regulation, as amended, prohibiting utility companies from shutting off services to certain customers (detailed therein) as from March 1, 2020, during the period between April 24, 2020 and December 31, 2020 (extended for 180 calendar days by DNU 543/2020). Additionally, the Order provides that the customers who have a prepaid system and do not pay for the recharges, will receive the service as normal and usual during that same period. The detailed aspects impact directly on the Company's operations, its economic and financial situation, and outlook as the necessary resources to deal with those situations have not been defined.
    3. System of payment for the service: by means of Resolution No. 173/2020 (which regulates DNU 311/2020, as amended by DNU 756/2020), on April 18, 2020, the Ministry of Productive Development provided that the consumers benefitted from the prohibition against the interruption of the service due to non-payment of up to seven bills (universe of customers mentioned in the preceding paragraph), may pay their unpaid bills for the electricity distribution service in up to 30 monthly, equal and consecutive installments with an interest rate to be determined by the application authority, with the first installment maturing on September 30, 2020. This resolution applies only to a specific group of customers, which is deemed to be in a more vulnerable situation, detailed in the resolution, and whose scope at the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements is still pending definition by the application authority. Furthermore, the financing may be applied to the purchase of energy the Company makes from the MEM associated with these consumptions.
    4. Consumption estimate: in the framework of the mandatory and preventive social isolation provided for by the PEN and the provisions of ENRE Resolution No. 3/2020, on April 13, 2020, the Regulatory Authority authorized the Company to apply the methodology for validating meter readings and consumption estimates (ENRE Resolution No. 209/2018), excluding the cases of remote readings and non-metered consumptions. Furthermore, the ENRE issued two instructions, one of them on April 30, 2020 and the other on May 5, 2020, in relation to the application of the aforementioned methodology, mainly with regard to the communication to be provided to customers, the mechanisms for challenging meter readings and the information about this process to be provided on a periodical basis to the Regulatory Authority. Subsequently, on May 6, 2020, the ENRE authorized Distribution Companies to perform meter reading activities for the electricity consumption of medium and large demand user categories, tariff 2 and 3.

In this regard, by means of Resolution No. 27/2020, the ENRE resolved that in the case of T1R (small-demand residential tariff) category users with no remote meter reading, the lowest consumption recorded over the last three years prior to the issuance of the bill for the same estimated period is to be applied until actual meter readings are available.

C O N D E N S E D I N T E R I M

F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S

N O T E S

Furthermore, by means of Resolution No. 35/2020, the ENRE resolved that T2 (medium- demand), T3 (large-demand) and Wheeling system tariff category users subject to compliance with the mandatory lockdown, who have suffered a reduction of at least 50% in their demand for power, may either suspend payment or make partial payments on account of the contracted power under electricity supply contracts, until 70% of the demand is recovered, maintaining the obligation to pay the other charges.

Finally, on May 15, 2020, by means of note dated May 15, 2020, the ENRE instructed the Company to begin to carry out reading tasks of T1 (small-demand tariff) users' meters so that the billing reflects actual consumption.

In this regard, it was provided that if from the previous consumption estimate process a difference arises in favor of the user, it must be reimbursed by the Company in the first bill with actual reading. Furthermore, if the difference is in favor of the Company, the resulting amount will have to be paid in 6 equal and consecutive installments, which will be included in the bills to be issued with the consumption recorded as from September 1, 2020, which was extended to November 1, 2020. Finally, by means of note dated October 26, 2020, the ENRE suspended the commencement of the payment of the installments of the amounts owed by T1 (small-demand tariff) users until new instructions are given in this regard.

Furthermore, by means of DNU No. 875/2020 dated November 7, 2020, the PEN provided for the Mandatory, Preventive and Social Distancing, lifting certain restrictions in the CABA and the AMBA (Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area).

All that which has been previously described impacts on the Company's economic and financial situation.

d) Penalties

At the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements, and despite the unilateral breach by the grantor of the concession of the Electricity Rate Schedule Maintenance Agreement signed with the Federal Government on September 19, 2019, the Company has complied with the payment of the six penalty-related installments, whose payment had been deferred.

Furthermore, on June 3, 2020, by means of Resolution No. 42/2020, the ENRE approved the new methodology for crediting and distributing the penalties payable to all the active users, and the regulations of the methodology for crediting the penalties payable to disconnected users, as well as the manner in which distribution companies must produce that information and send it to the ENRE. As of September 30, 2020, the totality of the penalties payable to active users have been credited.

Note 3 | Basis of preparation

These condensed interim financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", incorporated by the CNV.

These condensed interim financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 have not been audited; they have been reviewed by the Independent Accountant in accordance with ISRE 2410, whose scope is substantially less than that of an audit performed in accordance with applicable auditing standards. The Company's Management estimates that they include all the necessary adjustments to fairly present the results of operations for each period. The result of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 and its comparative period as of September 30, 2019 do not necessarily reflect the Company's results in proportion to the full fiscal year. They were approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on November 10, 2020.

The condensed interim financial statements are measured in pesos (the legal currency in Argentina) restated in accordance with that mentioned in this Note, which is also the presentation currency.

1 3

C O N D E N S E D I N T E R I M

F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S

N O T E S

These condensed interim financial statements must be read together with the audited Financial Statements as of December 31, 2019 prepared under IFRS.

Comparative information

The balances as of December 31 and for the nine and three-month period ended September 30, 2019, as the case may be, disclosed in these condensed interim financial statements for comparative purposes, arise as a result of restating the annual Financial Statements and the Condensed Interim Financial Statements as of those dates to the purchasing power of the currency at September 30, 2020, as a consequence of the restatement of the financial information described hereunder. Furthermore, certain amounts of the financial statements presented in comparative form have been reclassified in order to maintain consistency of presentation with the amounts of the current periods (Note 4).

Restatement of financial information

The condensed interim financial statements, including the figures relating to the previous year/period, have been stated in terms of the measuring unit current at September 30, 2020, in accordance with IAS 29 "Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies", using the BCRA Market Expectations Survey index for the last month of the period, inasmuch as the FACPCE index was not yet available at the closing date of the Company's accounting processes.

The inflation rate applied for the period between January 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020, based on that indicated in the preceding paragraph, amounted to 22.8%. It does not cause significant distortions that, in the Company's opinion, could affect the interpretation of these condensed interim financial statements or investor decisions if the definitive index established by the FACPCE, which was published subsequent to the closing of the Company's accounting process, had been used.

Note 4 | Accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted for these condensed interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the Financial Statements for the last financial year, which ended on December 31, 2019, except for the classification of commercial interest and surcharges in the statement of comprehensive (loss) income, as the Company believes that the concepts related to interest for delinquency in the payment of trade receivables and surcharges applied to customers due to late payment or other associated penalties provide relevant information about the operation and operating cash flows of the business; therefore, they are disclosed within the other operating income account. The Company's Management believes this disclosure reflects the impacts of the operating cycle, allowing for homogeneity of treatment with other concepts such as the impairment of receivables, particularly taking into consideration the current context detailed in Notes 1 and 2 that increased the delay in the time taken to make payments, including in the latter case the restriction on some measures aimed at limiting delays in payment from customers.

Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations issued by the IASB in the last few years, effective as of September 30, 2020 and adopted by the Company:

  • IAS 1 "Presentation of financial statements" and IAS 8 "Accounting policies" (amended in October 2018). The amendment clarifies the definition of "material" for ease of understanding.
  • IFRS 16 "Leases", amended in May 2020. It permits lessors, as a practical expedient, not to assess whether a lease modification exists in the event of rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19. It applies to annual periods beginning on or after June 1, 2020. The cumulative effect is recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the beginning of the period in which the amendment is first applied, with early adoption permitted.

1 4

C O N D E N S E D I N T E R I M

F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S

N O T E S

  • IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts", published in May 2017. It replaces IFRS 4 - an interim standard issued in 2004 that allowed entities to account for insurance contracts using their local accounting requirements, resulting in multiple application approaches. IFRS 17 establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of insurance contracts, and applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted if entities also apply IFRS 9 and IFRS 15. The Company has not early adopted this standard.
  • IAS 16 "Property, Plant and Equipment", amended in May 2020. It eliminates the possibility of deducting from the cost of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from the sale of items produced while bringing the asset to the location, carrying out its installation process and preparing it for its intended use. It is applicable retrospectively from January 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not early adopted this standard.
  • IAS 37 "Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets", amended in May 2020. It specifies that the unavoidable cost of fulfilling an onerous contract is the lower of the cost of fulfilling its provisions and the amount of any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it. It applies to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not early adopted this standard.

There are no new IFRS or IFRIC applicable as from this period that have a material impact on the Company's condensed interim financial statements.

Note 5 | Financial risk management

Nota 5.1 | Financial risk factors

The Company's activities and the market in which it operates expose the Company to a series of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, cash flows interest rate risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

Additionally, the difficulty in obtaining financing in the international markets could affect some of the Company's business variables, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and the access to sources of financing.

With regard to the Company's risk management policies, there have been no significant changes since the last fiscal year end.

  1. Fair value estimate

The Company classifies the measurements of financial instruments at fair value using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the relevance of the variables used to carry out such measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

  • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from the prices).
  • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e. unobservable inputs).

  1. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk of fluctuation in the fair value or cash flows of an instrument due to changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is mainly related to its long-term debt obligations.

Indebtedness at floating rates exposes the Company to interest rate risk on its cash flows. Indebtedness at fixed rates exposes the Company to interest rate risk on the fair value of its liabilities. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 all the loans were obtained at fixed interest rates, except for a loan applied for by the Company and granted by ICBC Bank as from October 2017 for a three-year term at a six-month libor rate plus an initial 2.75% spread, which will be adjusted semi- annually by a quarter-point. The Company's policy is to keep the largest percentage of its indebtedness in instruments that accrue interest at fixed rates.

Note 6 | Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of the condensed interim financial statements requires the Company's Management to make estimates and assessments concerning the future, exercise critical judgments and make assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses.

These estimates and judgments are permanently evaluated and are based upon past experience and other factors that are reasonable under the existing circumstances. Future actual results may differ from the estimates and assessments made at the date of preparation of these condensed interim financial statements, mainly under the current circumstances posed by the COVID- 19 pandemic mentioned in Notes 1 and 2, which could affect the Company's operations and the judgment exercised by Management in each and every aspect related to predictive situations.

1 7

C O N D E N S E D I N T E R I M

F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S

N O T E S

In the preparation of these condensed interim financial statements, there were no changes in either the critical judgments made by the Company when applying its accounting policies or the information sources of estimation uncertainty with respect to those applied in the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, except for certain parameters that are described below:

  1. Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company analyzes the recoverability of its long-lived assets on a periodical basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the recoverable amount of assets, which is measured as the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell at the end of the period, may be impaired.

Due to that described in Note 1, and taking into consideration the impacts on the Company's economic and financial equation, the projections made by edenor at December 31, 2019 have been updated at March 31, 2020, there being no new indicators showing that an impairment may exist concerning the recoverability of its property, plant and equipment.

The value in use is determined on the basis of projected and discounted cash flows, using discount rates that reflect the time value of money and the specific risks of the assets under consideration.

Cash flows are prepared based on estimates concerning the future performance of certain variables that are sensitive to the determination of the recoverable amount, among which the following can be noted: (i) nature, timing, and modality of the electricity rate increases and/or recognition of cost adjustments; (ii) demand for electricity projections; (iii) development of the costs to be incurred; (iv) investment needs appropriate to the service quality levels required by the Regulatory authority, and

  1. macroeconomic variables, such as, growth rates, inflation rates and foreign currency exchange rates, among others.

The Company has made its projections under the assumption that in the next few years it will obtain the delayed electricity rates updates to which it is entitled in accordance with the applicable regulations, using a Discount rate (WACC) in dollars of 11.41% and taking into account the following effects resulting from the situation mentioned in Note 1:

  • Decrease in demand of 15% for the months of April, May and June; 10% for the month of July, and 5% for the months of August, September and October 2020, compared to the average demand recorded in the last few months;
  • Decrease in collections of 40% for the months of April, May and June; 25% for the month of July, and 10% for the months of August, September and October 2020;
  • Reduction of 8% and 16% in operating expenses and capital expenditures, respectively.

However, given the complexity of the country's macroeconomic scenario, exacerbated by the effects of the pandemic, the Company's Management is not in a position to ensure that the future performance of the assumptions used in making its projections will be in line with what it has estimated at the date of preparation of these condensed interim financial statements.

In order to consider the estimation risk included in the projections of the aforementioned variables, the Company has taken into consideration three alternative probability-weighted scenarios, which are detailed below:

  1. Scenario called Optimistic scenario: the Company forecasts that the CPD increases will be transferred to tariffs as from January 2021. Furthermore, as from that date, the outstanding balances, net of the debt with the MEM generated in 2020 plus interest and updates, would begin to be recovered in 12 monthly installments. Additionally, from February 2021 the CPD adjustments related to each period would be transferred to tariffs. As from February 2022, a new RTI period would come into effect, which would imply a redefinition of revenues to face larger investments and an increase in the level of activity. Probability of occurrence assigned 5%.

N O T E S

  1. Scenario called Intermediate scenario: the Company forecasts that the CPD increases will be transferred to tariffs in January 2021, July 2021 and January 2022. Furthermore, in January 2021, the outstanding balances, net of the debt with the MEM generated in 2020 plus interest and updates, would begin to be recovered in 18 monthly installments (estimated average of installments - Note 2.c.3). Additionally, from February 2021 the CPD adjustments related to each period would be transferred to tariffs. Probability of occurrence assigned 70%.
  2. Scenario called Pessimistic scenario: The RTI would be breached. Moreover, the Company forecasts that 80% of the CPD increases will be transferred to tariffs in January 2022 and January 2023. Furthermore, in January 2022, 80% of the outstanding balances, net of the debt with the MEM generated in 2020 plus interest and updates, would begin to be recovered in 18 monthly installments (estimated average of installments - Note 2.c.3). As from February 2021, 80% of the CPD adjustments related to each period would be transferred to tariffs. Probability of occurrence assigned 25%.

The Company has assigned to these three scenarios the previously detailed probability of occurrence percentages based mainly on experience and giving consideration to the current economic and financial situation.

At the date of these condensed interim financial statements, the demand and collection indicators used for the test for recoverability of long-lived fixed assets carried out as of March 31, 2020 have improved, which allows the Company to conclude that there are no new indicators showing that an impairment may exist.

Note 7 | Contingencies and lawsuits

As of September 30, 2020, the provision for contingencies has been recorded to face situations existing at the end of each period that may result in a loss for the Company if one or more future events occurred or failed to occur.

At the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements, the variation recorded in the United States dollar exchange rate and, mainly, the significant decrease recorded in interest rates compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, as a consequence of a combination of external factors and the local macroeconomic context, have resulted in a decrease as of September 30, 2020 in the Company's estimates of the amounts related to the different contingencies and lawsuits.

Energy purchases

Energy

The Company bills its users the cost of its purchases of energy, which

purchase

includes charges for purchases of energy and power. The Company

purchases electric power at seasonal prices approved by the ENRE. The

price of the Company's electric power reflects the costs of transmission and

other regulatory charges.

Energy

Energy losses are equivalent to the difference between energy purchased

Losses

and energy sold. These losses can be classified into technical and non-

technical losses. Technical losses represent the energy lost during

transmission and distribution within the network as a consequence of the

natural heating of the conductors and transformers that carry electricity from

power generation plants to users. Non-technical losses represent the

remainder of the Company's energy losses and are mainly due to the illegal

use of its services or the theft of energy. Energy losses require that the

Company purchase additional energy in order to meet the demand and its

Concession Agreement allows it to recover from its users the cost of these

purchases up to a loss factor specified in its concession for each rate

category. The current loss factor recognized in the tariff by virtue of its

concession amounts to approximately 9.1%.

Note 12 | Basic and diluted (loss) profit per share

Basic

The basic (loss) profit per share is calculated by dividing the (loss) profit attributable to the holders of the Company's equity instruments by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, excluding common shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.

The basic (loss) profit per share coincides with the diluted (loss) profit per share, inasmuch as the Company has issued neither preferred shares nor Corporate Notes convertible into common shares.

Note 31 | Termination of agreement on real estate asset

With regard to the real estate asset to be constructed, acquired by the Company in November 2015, the subsequent termination of the agreement due to RDSA's default in August 2018 and the respective legal actions brought by the Company against the seller and the insurance company, and with respect to the settlement agreement dated September 30, 2019 that the Company entered into with Aseguradores de Cauciones S.A., the following events stand out as of the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements, in addition to those mentioned in our annual Financial Statements:

  • With regard to the USD 1 million receivable resulting from the agreement with Aseguradora de Cauciones S.A., the Company has received payment of the first installment for USD 100,000, which fell due on April 21, 2020. Furthermore, in the second quarter of 2020, the Company entered into an agreement on the extension of maturity dates, pursuant to which the following payments were renegotiated: a) the second installment for USD 50,000, whose maturity date was July 20, 2020 -which was received by the Company-; b) the third installment for USD 70,000 maturing on October 19, 2020, which was collected by the Company at the date of these condensed interim financial statements; and c) the remaining balance of the second and third installments for USD 180,000 determined according to the original maturity of payments, plus the related interest, which will fall due on November 15, 2020. The rest of the quarterly payment schedule remains unchanged.
  • With regard to RDSA reorganization proceedings, the Company has filed ancillary proceedings for review of the amount declared inadmissible, which, at the date of issuance of these condensed interim financial statements, are at the final stage for producing evidence. Due to the pandemic declared by the WHO on March 11, 2020 and the mandatory and preventive social isolation ordered by DNU 297/2020, and the subsequent extensions thereof, the originally set procedural time limits have been extended, with the exclusivity period in order for the reorganization debtor to propose one or more reorganization plans and obtain the consent required by law for the confirmation of the eventual agreement being currently underway.
