Release 1Q21

A MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE

The first quarter of 2021 was marked by the beginning of my term as CEO of EDP Brasil, a company where I had served as Director since 2015 and where I now take over as president with enthusiasm and pride.

In this respect, we started implementing the 2021-2025 strategic plan, which provides for BRL 10 billion in investments in the Company's main operating and in accelerated and sustainable growth of the Company. Ninety percent of the amount will be allocated to the Distribution and Solar Generation areas, with the remainder allocated to the Transmission segment. The topic was widely discussed by EDP Brasil's Executive Board during the analyst day event, held on April 26.

Although the effects of the pandemic remain evident, we have been using every effort to mitigate its impacts. We were thus able to achieve very positive results in the first quarter of 2021. Briefly put, EBITDA was BRL 1.0 billion, up 50.1% YoY, and Net income was BRL 495.8 million, up 82.9%.

We made important gains in the first months of the year, particular emphasis due on the acquisition of AES Inova, an investment platform for distributed solar energy that holds a portfolio of approximately 34 MWp, and the acquisition of Mata Grande Transmissora de Energia, the holder of Lot 18 from Transmission Auction No. 002/2018.

Also on Transmission, we are glad to underscore the partial operational startup of Transmission Lot MA I, in the state of Maranhão (Lot 7), 17 months ahead of regulatory schedule, as well as the brisk construction pace of the other Lots, reinforcing our commitment with early delivery and value crystallization.

On Distribution, the volume of energy distributed was up 4.4% due to the period's high temperatures caused by low rainfall, and an increased number of customers.

In the Trading and Generation segments, EDP Comercializadora has been key to mitigating the effects of hydrological risk, as it has been operating as an energy portfolio management instrument, acting together with hydro generation in energy sale transactions. The quarter was - again - under impact from increased hydrological risk, due to the drier scenario and the delayed rainy season. Thus, the energy allocation strategy has been focusing on the first quarter to mitigate these externalities' impacts.

EDP's consolidated leverage focuses on capital structure optimization and reached 2.5x Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA at the end of the quarter, ex- non-recurring effects of the past 12 months. According to the Company's Dividends Policy as announced, we have been pursuing, and maintaining, leverage levels of approximately 2.5x to 3.0x, be it through increased investment in our business or via share buyback programs. It is worth emphasizing that, on April 06, we completed our first Share Buyback Program, which began on August 28, 2020. Over the period, we bought back 24.2 million shares, equivalent to 8.10% of the free float.

This has been a period of transformation, where the electric energy industry around the world is undergoing massive changes, with new forms of energy production and market liberalization. This shift has been adding significant momentum to the energy transition process. In line with the EDP Group's global vision, EDP Brasil enthusiastically and determinedly plays a key role in this process, standing as a leader of the shift.

Finally, I would like to thank all colleagues at EDP Brasil and in the market at large for their warm welcome to Brazil. I had the opportunity to visit some of our business units in person and meet the teams at the head of each of the Company's areas. At these meetings, I was able to see their technical skill, commitment and discipline as regards the objective of implementing our Business Plan and reach ever- higher targets and results - which the numbers provided here will substantiate. I am certain that we will keep using every effort to continue to create even more value for all of our stakeholders.

Warm regards to all of you,

João Marques da Cruz| CEO
