1 Operations

Companhia Paranaense de Energia (Copel, Company or Parent Company), with its head office located at Rua Coronel Dulcídio, 800, Curitiba - State of Paraná, is a publicly-held mixed capital company controlled by the State of Paraná and its shares are traded at Corporate Governance Level 1 of the Special Listing Segments of B3 S.A. - Brasil, Bolsa Balcão Stock Exchange and also on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and on the Madrid Stock Exchange, in the Latin American segment (Latibex).

The core activities of Copel and its subsidiaries, which are regulated by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL), linked to the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), are to carry out research, study, planning, and asset building activities related to the generation, transformation, distribution and trading of energy in any of its forms, primarily electricity. Furthermore, Copel participates in consortiums and in private sector and mixed-capital companies for the purpose of engaging in activities, primarily in the fields of energy, telecommunications and natural gas.

a) Coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19) and its impacts

Coronavirus is a family of viruses that causes respiratory infections. The new coronavirus was discovered in 2019 after cases registered in China and causes the disease called Covid-19, which has clinical symptoms ranging from asymptomatic infections to severe respiratory conditions.

In the first weeks of 2020, the epidemic affected regions in Asia and the Middle East, being limited to some regions in China, South Korea and Iran. In mid-February, the first cases of Covid-19 were identified in Europe, specifically in Italy, with a rapid escalation of its spread across Europe. On 02.26.2020 the first case of coronavirus infection was identified in Brazil, in the city of São Paulo and on 03.11.2020, WHO attributed the status of pandemic to coronavirus, in view of the spread of contamination throughout the world. In Brazil, federal, state and municipal governments have implemented several measures to deal with the public healthemergency. In the state of Paraná, measures included social isolation and restrictions on the operation of non-essential activities as a means to slow the spread of the disease.

As of March 2020, based on all the events mentioned above, Copel's Management issued rules that aim to ensure compliance with the measures to contain the spread of the disease in the Company and minimize its impacts and potential impacts on the administrative, operations and economic-financial areas.

Accordingly, Copel established a Contingency Commission, whose objective is to monitor and mitigate the impacts and consequences in the main activities of the Company, as new risks may arise that may impact Copel. The 4 pillars defined are: (i) safety of personnel, (ii) continuity of essential activities, (iii) monitoring of the guidelines and requirements of regulatory bodies, and (iv) preservation of adequate financial conditions to withstand the crisis.

Among the main initiatives implemented by the Company, there are actions to prevent and mitigate the effects of contagion in the workplace, such as: adoption of home office in areas where it is possible to adopt this format, travel restrictions, meetings by video conference, daily monitoring of the health and well-being of employees and contingency protocols in order to fully maintain the operations of the electric power, telecommunications and piped gas infrastructure, preserving the health of its professionals, their safe access to locations, an environment that preserves distance between individuals, hygiene and access to personal protective equipment

Likewise, Copel has adopted several activities in favor of its customers, maintaining the reliability and availability of its plants, the transmission and distribution systems of electric power and gas and telecommunications, so that they can remain connected and take advantage of Company services in this critical moment of pandemic and social distancing. Copel and its employees go to great lengths to ensure that Copel customers and their families remain healthy and safe in their homes, maintaining all the services that contribute to providing comfort and connectivity for everyone.

In this scenario, for the purposes of preparing and disclosing the interim financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company's management evaluated its estimates in order to identify the possible impacts of Covid-19 on the Company's business, as follows:

a.1) Expected credit losses

A potentially relevant risk in the emergence of Covid-19 is related to customer default. In this scenario, the Company maintains regular contact with its main customers, adding flexibility to the collection policy during the pandemic period and increasing the level of digitalization in the relationship with Copel.

The Company's accounts receivable position as of March 31, 2020, as well as the estimates of expected credit losses reflect in a timely manner the best analysis by Management at this time on the quality and recoverability of this financial asset.

Although the loss indicator has not significantly worsened, the Company may face pressure on this indicator throughout the year.

In the first quarter of 2020, there was an increase in the estimate of expected credit losses, in the amount of R$ 13,320, mainly due to the application of macroeconomic projections in the preparation of the estimates due to the worsening of the economic context.

a.2) Impairment of non-financial assets - impairment

The Company assessed the indications of impairment of assets resulting from the pandemic and concluded that there is no significant change in the recoverable amount of its fixed and intangible assets. The assumptions for all non-financial assets were assessed individually and the conclusion is that the net carrying amount of the assets is recoverable.

The main assumptions applied in the preparation of cash flow models did not have a significant impact in the short term, given that most of the energy is already contracted and the amount of energy exposed to Settlement Price of the Differences (PLD) is not significant. In the medium term, there was impact on the prices negotiated in the free market on the portion of non-contracted energy, but with no significant impact on the Company. Finally, in the long term, the main assumptions used to calculate the impairment (future energy prices and Generation Scaling Factor - GSF levels) did not change significantly, accordingly evidencing the recoverability of assets.

Therefore, the Company concluded that there is no need to set up an additional provision for impairment.

a.3) Recovery of deferred tax assets

The Company has a balance of R$ 1,033,398 related to deferred tax assets on income tax and social contribution losses and temporary differences recorded at March 31, 2020. The Company assessed its estimates of expected future taxable income and did not identify the need for a provision for loss.

a.4) Fair value of future energy purchase and sale operations

The effects of Covid-19 on the mark-to-market of electric power purchase and sale agreements occurred mainly in the variation of short-term future prices due to more favorable hydrology and load reduction. In the long-term, future electric power prices did not change significantly. Therefore, at this time, the effects of thepandemic did not have a significant impact on the fair value of the Company's future energy purchase and sale operations.

a.5) Fair value of other assets and liabilities

At the present time, the effects of the pandemic did not have a significant impact on the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities, mainly on assets originating from concession agreements that are made in the long-term and are contractually guaranteed to receive residual balance at the end of the concession and/ or unconditional right to receive cash during the concession. Accordingly, considering that there were no changes in long-term estimates and assumptions, and that the Company's assets are essential and indicate continuity of operations and cash flows in the medium and long term, up to the present date, despite the fact that the pandemic effects remain uncertain, its effects did not have a significant impact on the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities.

a.6) Post-employment benefits

The Company's management has constantly monitored the fair value of the actuarial asset of the post-employment benefit plans due to the instability of the interest rate, which is determined based on market data. Due to the economic instability in this pandemic period, the fair value of the plan assets fell at 03.31.2020 in relation to the fair value at 12.31.2019. However, the benefit plans did not generate additional obligations due to the existence of a surplus in the pension plan and the fact that the actuarial liability of the plan is recognized in a sufficient amount, in light of the current assessment.

a.7) Liquidity

The Company currently has a solid financial situation with good liquidity ratios and believes that its working capital is sufficient for its current requirements. However, an expectation of economic impacts caused by a slowdown of business activities resulting from the restrictions imposed during the Covid-19 pandemic, with subsequent effects on Copel's operations, may affect the Company's financial results.

At March 31, 2020, the Company's consolidated net working capital totals R$ 2,735,621 (R$ 2,563,575, at 12.31.2019) with a balance of cash and cash equivalents of R$ 3,014,957, compared to the balance of R$ 2,941,727 at 12.31.2019.

The Company has been monitoring its financial liquidity, considering the possibility of raising funds and the prospect of cash retention, using measures from the Federal Government and other sectorial institutions, already implemented and under preparation, and taking necessary actions in our operations such as cost reduction and postponement of investments with the objective of guaranteeing compliance with financial obligations in due time.

a.8) Other assets

The Company has not identified any changes in circumstances that indicate impairment of other assets. It should be noted that the Company records changes in sectorial financial assets and liabilities, updated up to the date of the tariff adjustment/review when, the Granting Authority ratifies the transfer on the tariff base and the Company transfers it to the consumer during the next annual cycle, which at Copel occurs as of June 24 of each year. Management understands that the assets at March 31, 2020 were not impacted and that, with the emergency measures for the electric power sector provided for in Provisional Act No. 950 dated April 8, 2020, the realization of the sectorial financial assets and liabilities is sustained.

In view of all of the above, it should be noted that there was no significant or material impact on the Company's business that could change the measurement of its assets and liabilities presented in the quarterly information at March 31, 2020, and until the date of this publication. However, considering that, like all companies, Copel is exposed to risks arising from any legal and market restrictions that may be imposed, it is not possible to ensure that there will be no impact on operations or that the result will not be affected by the future consequences of the pandemic.

1.1 Copel's equity interests

Copel has direct and indirect interests in subsidiaries (1.1.1), joint ventures (1.1.2), associates (1.1.3) and joint operations (1.1.4).

There was no change in equity interests at December 31, 2019.

1.1.1 Subsidiaries

1.1.2 Joint ventures

1.1.3 Associates

1.1.4 Joint operations (consortiums)

2 Concessions and Authorizations

2.1 Concession contracts or authorizations obtained by Copel

2.1.1 Compagás

Compagás is a party to a concession agreement entered into with the Concession Grantor, the State of Paraná, which determines the date of July 6, 2024 as the concession's expiration date.

On December 7, 2017, the State of Paraná published Complementary Law 205, introducing a new interpretation to the end of the concession, understanding that expiration occurred on January 20, 2019. The Management of Compagás, its Parent company and other shareholders are challenging the effects of the aforesaid law since they understand that it conflicts with the provisions of the concession agreement currently in force. Compagás filed a lawsuit challenging the early termination of the concession and, on October 30, 2018, a preliminary injunction was granted in favor of the Company's understanding of the terms of the concession contract and the continuity of its operations until July 2024. The Company is awaiting the trial on merit of the case.

Considering that until this date there was no extension/bidding of the concession, the law provides that the concession operator may, after the expiration of the term, remain responsible for its performance until the assumption of the new concession operator, subject to the conditions established.

Considering that the lawsuit continues outstanding and the law continues in force, it was necessary to consider these effects in this quarterly information. The impacts recorded are as follows:

Management will continue to make its best efforts to protect the Company's interests, aiming at appropriately settle the impacts of the new interpretation given by the Concession Grantor and looking for the necessary alternatives to maintain the concession in a sustainable manner.

2.2 Concession contracts or authorizations obtained by Copel Get and its investees

During 2019, three important enterprises started their commercial operations:

-UHE Colíder: in March, May and December 2019, the three generating units of the plant entered into commercial operation, respectively, in all cases with 100 MW of installed power.

-UHE Baixo Iguaçu: Commercial operation of units 1 and 2 began in February 2019, with unit 3 starting in April 2019, with a total installed capacity of 350.2 MW.

- Cutia and Bento Miguel Wind Complexes: From the last two week of December 2018 to March 2019, all wind farms went into commercial operation, with a total installed capacity of 312.9 MW.

3 Basis of Preparation

3.1 Statements of compliance

The individual financial statements of the Parent Company and the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, IASB, as well as with accounting practices adopted in Brazil (BR GAAP), which comprise the standards, guidelines and interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis or CPC) and approved by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (Comissão de Valores Mobiliários or CVM) and the Federal Accounting Council (Conselho Federal de Contabilidade or CFC).

Management declares that all relevant information from the individual and consolidated quarterly information, and only those, are being evidenced and corresponds to that used in management.

The issuance of these individual and consolidated quarterly information was approved by Management on May 14, 2020.

3.2 Functional and presentation currency

The individual and consolidated quarterly information is presented in Brazilian Reais, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company. Balances herein have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated.

3.3 Basis of measurement

The individual and consolidated quarterly information were prepared based on the historical cost, except for certain financial instruments and investments measured at fair value, as described in the respective accounting policies and notes.

3.4 Use of estimates and judgments

In the preparation of this individual and consolidated quarterly information, Management used judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses of Copel and its subsidiaries. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on a continuous basis. Changes in estimates are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Information about the use of estimates and judgment referring to the adoption of accounting policies which impact the amounts recognized in the quarterly information is the same as that disclosed in note 3.4 to the financial statements at December 31, 2019.

3.5 Management's judgment on going concern

Management has concluded that there are no material uncertainties that cast doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. No events or conditions were identified that, individually or in the aggregate, may raise significant doubts on its ability to continue as a going concern.

The main bases of judgment used for such conclusion are: (i) main activities resulting from long-term concessions; (ii) robust equity; (iii) strong operating cash generation, including financial capacity to settle commitments entered into with financial institutions; (iv) historical profitability; and (v) fulfillment of the objectives and targets set forth in the Company's Strategic Planning, which is approved by Management, monitored and reviewed periodically, seeking the continuity of its activities.

4 Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's accounting policies are consistent with those presented in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

4.1 Standards applicable to the Company effective January 1, 20

From January 1, 2020, changes in the following pronouncements will be in effect, without significant impacts on the Company's financial statements:

(i) CPC 00 (R2)/ IAS 1 Conceptual framework;

(ii) Annual review of CPC No. 14/2019: changes in pronouncements arising from the review of CPC 00, change in the definition of business in CPC 15 (R1) / IFRS 3 and change in the definition of materiality in CPC 26 (IAS 1) and CPC 23 (IAS 8).

5 Cash and Cash Equivalents

These comprise cash on hand, deposits with banks and short-term highly-liquid investments, which can be redeemed in cash within 90 days from the investment date. Temporary short-term investments are recorded at cost at the reporting date, plus earnings accrued. Cash and cash equivalents are subject to an insignificant risk of change invalue.

Financial investments of the Company and its subsidiaries refer to Bank Deposit Certificates - CDBs and Repurchase Agreements, which are the sale of a security with the commitment of the seller (Bank) to repurchase it, and of the purchaser to resell it in the future. Investments are remunerated between 78.0% and 100.8% of Interbank Deposit Certificate (Certificado de Depósito Interbancário - CDI) interest.

6 Bonds and Securities

The Company and its subsidiaries hold securities that yield variable interest rates. The term of these securities ranges from 2 to 58 months from the end of the reporting period.

7 Trade Accounts Receivable

7.1 Energy installments plan

The trade accounts receivable renegotiated are discounted to present value as of March 31, 2020, taking into consideration the future value, the maturity dates, the dates of settlement and the discount rate ranging from 0.29% to 2.81% p.m.

7.2 Electricity Trading Chamber - CEEE

Balance receivable by the electricity generation, trading and distribution subsidiaries deriving from the positive position in the monthly settlement of the spot market centralized by CCEE. Amounts are received in the second month following the recognition of revenue or offset against future settlements when the result is negative for the subsidiary.

Additionally, as a result of unforeseeable circumstances and force majeure, the power plant had its commercial start-up delayed, which was initially scheduled for January 2015. The Company is contesting in court, filing a request for exclusion of liability so that the mandatory supply of energy contracted by the plant, in the period in delay, is postponed.

Copel GeT filed an administrative request for the exclusion of liability at ANEEL, which was denied, and subsequently, at 12.18.2017, it filed an ordinary lawsuit with request for advance protection with the Court, requesting the reversal of the agency's decision. On April 6, 2018, the Federal Court of the 1st Region fully granted the advance relief requested in the interlocutory appeal to exempt the Company from any burden, charges or restrictions on the rights arising from the displacement of the UHE Colíder implementation schedule. The Company is awaiting judgment on the merits of the lawsuit.

The contracted energy of the plant is 125 MW mean. For overdue periods the contract was fulfilled as described below:

- From January 2015 to May 2016, with suspension of energy delivery by operation because of the injunction obtained by Management;

- In June 2016, with partial reduction through a bilateral agreement and suspended remaining balance due to the court injunction;

- From July 2016 to December 2018, with reduction of all supply contracts of the CCEARs - Energy Trading Agreement in the Regulated Environment, through a bilateral agreement and participation in the New Energy and Decrease Clearing Facility ("Mecanismo de Compensação de Sobras e Déficits de Energia Nova - MCSD-EN"); and

- From January to March 2019, the firmed contracts in the regulated environment became effective again, however, energy supply continued suspended, in light of the injunction obtained. As of March 9, 2019, the plant started commercial production of its first generating unit.

Due to the fact it is awaiting a decision on the merits of the lawsuit, in the period in delay of the plant, the Company recognized in the income for the years revenue limited to the financial covenants of the agreement and the regulatory rules, as well as the cost of energy to cover the contractual guarantee.

From the amount determined by CCEE, for the controversial portion arising from the effects of the injunction for exemption of responsibility of Colíder HPP, an allowance for expected losses was recognized in the amount of R$119,665 (Note 7.3).

7.3 Expected credit losses

Refers to the right recognized, emerging of Concession Agreement No. 060/2001 arising from the Annual Permitted Revenue - RAP not received in the period from January 2013 to June 2017. The balance includes monetary restatement and interest.

On June 27, 2017, ANEEL published Resolution 2,258 establishing the Annual Permitted Revenues (RAP) for the 2017-2018 tariff cycle, considering a court decision on the injunction of April 11, 2017 related to a lawsuit filed by business associations, which determines the deduction of the"compensation",provided for in article 15, paragraph 2 of Law 12,783/2013, on a temporary basis. The same decision was applied to the other tariff cycles. The compensation being challenged in court related to the cost of equity calculated for the RBSE assets from January 2013 to June 2017, at the time of filing of the lawsuit, is R$201,795.

Based on the opinion of its legal counsel, Copel GeT understands that this is a provisional decision that does not oppose its right to receive the due amounts related to RSBE assets, and that these are guaranteed by law. Therefore, the receivables considered in the receipt flow of this asset are recorded in noncurrentassets.

10.5 Power generation concession contract

The balance of R$69,182 (R$69,182 as of December 31, 2018) refers to the residual balances of the electricity generation assets of HPP GPS and HPP Mourão I.

Compagás has the right to use the gas in subsequent months and can compensate the volume contracted and not consumed until 2022. According to the contractual provisions and consumption perspectives, derived from the review of the projects and scenarios for the next years, Compagás estimates to fully offset the contracted volumes in the course of its operation. The contracts with Petrobras provide for the right to assign of this asset. The expiration date of the concession is in discussion with the Concession Grantor, as described in Note 2.1.1.

ESBR filed Ordinary Lawsuit No. 10426-71.2013.4.01.4100 against ANEEL in the Federal Court of Rondônia, whose ruling: (i) acknowledged the exclusion of liability for the 535-day schedule overrun in the construction of the Jirau Hydropower Station; (ii) declares any obligations, penalties and costs imposed on ESBR as a result of the schedule overrun to be unenforceable, and (iii) annuls ANEEL Resolution 1,732/2013, which had recognized a schedule overrun of only 52 days. An appeal has been brought by ANEEL, pending judgment by the Federal Court of the 1stRegion.

The practical consequence of the ruling was, at the time it exempted ESBR, to expose the distributors with whom it entered into power trading contracts (CCEARs) to the Short-Term Market and to the high value of the Settlement Price of the Differences (Preço de Liquidação das Diferenças - PLD, in Portuguese) in the period, including Copel DIS. This occurred because the rules for the sale of electricity require that all energy consumed should have a corresponding contractual coverage.

If the lawsuits are judged unfavorably against Copel, the amount will be classified as Sectorial Financial Asset to be recovered through tariffrates.

Current status:awaiting judgment.

36 Financial Instruments

36.1 Categories and determination of fair value of financialinstruments

Determining fair values

a) Equivalent to their respective carrying values due to their nature and terms ofrealization.

b) Fair value is calculated based on informationmadeavailable by the financial agents and the market values of the bonds issued by the Braziliangovernment

c) The criteria are disclosed in Note4.4 to the financial statements on December 31, 2019.

d) The fair values of generation assets approximate their carrying amounts, according to Note4.4 to the financial statements on December 31, 2019.

e) The fair values of assets and liabilities are equivalent to their carrying amounts according to Note 4.15 to the financial statements on December 31, 2019.

f) Investments in other companies, stated at fair value, which is calculated according to the price quotations published in an active market, for assets classified as level 1 and determined in view of the comparative assessment model for assets classified as level2.

g) The cost of the last borrowing taken out by the Company is usedasa basic assumption,120.0% of CDI, for discount of the expected paymentflows.

h) The Company based its calculation on the comparison with a long-term and post-fixed National Treasury Bond (NTN-B) maturing on August 15, 2026, which yields approximately 3.52% p.y. plus the IPCA inflation index.

i) Receivables related to the concession agreement for providing electricity generation services under quota arrangements, having their fair value calculated by expected cash inflows, discounted at therateestablished by ANEEL auction notice 12/2015(9.04%).

j) Calculated from the Unit Price quotation (PU) for March 31, 2020, obtained from the Brazilian Association of Financial and Capital Markets (ANBIMA), net of unamortized financialcost.

k) Actual net discount rate of 8.26% p.y., in line with the Company's estimated rate for long-termprojects.

36.2 Financial risk management

The Company's business activities are exposed to the following risks arising from financial instruments:

36.2.1 Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of the Company incurring losses due to a customer or counterparty in a financial instrument, resulting from failure in complying with their contractual obligations.

a) The Company manages the credit risk of its assets in accordance with the Management’s policy of investing virtually all of its funds in federal banking institutions. As a result of legal and/or regulatory requirements, in exceptional circumstances the Company may invest funds in prime privatebanks.

b) The risk arises from the possibility that the Company might incur losses resulting from difficulties to receive its billings to customers. This risk is directly related to internal and external factors to Copel. To mitigate this type of risk, the Company manages its accounts receivable, detecting defaulting consumers, implementing specific collection policies and suspending the supply and/or recording of energy and the provision of service, as established in contract and regulatory standards.

c) Management believes this credit risk is low because repayments are secured by resources fromdividends.

d) Management considers the risk of this credit to be reduced, since the agreements signed guarantee the unconditional right to receive cash at the end of the concession to be paid by the Concession Grantor, corresponding to the costs not recovered through the tariff.

e) Management considers the risk of this credit to be reduced, since the agreements signed guarantee the unconditional right to receive cash at the end of the concession to be paid by the Concession Grantor, referring to investments in infrastructure not recovered through thetariff.

f) Management considers the credit risk reduced to the balance of RBSE assets, even in light of the injunctions that temporarily reduced the RAP to be received, as described in Note 10.4.

g) Management considers the risk of such credit to be low, as the contract for the sale of energy by quotas guarantees the receipt of an Annual Generation Revenue - RAG, which includes the annual amortization of this amount during the concessionterm.

h) For the generation concession assets, ANEEL published Normative Resolution 596/2013, which deals with the definition of criteria for calculating the New replacement value (Valor novo de reposição – VNR, in Portuguese), for the purposes of indemnification. Management's expectation of indemnification for these assets supports recoverability of the balances recorded.

i) This risk arises from the possibility that the Company might incur losses resulting from the volatility on the stock market. This type of risk involves external factors and has been managed through periodic assessment of the variations occurred in themarket.

36.2.2 Liquidity risk

The Company's liquidity risk consists of the possibility of having insufficient funds, cash or other financial assets, to settle obligations on their scheduled maturity dates.

The Company manages liquidity risk relying on a set of methodologies, procedures and instruments applied to secure ongoing control over financial processes to ensure proper management of risks.

Investments are financed by incurring medium and long-term debt with financial institutions and capital markets.

Short, medium and long-term business projections are made and submitted to Management bodies for evaluation. The budget for the next fiscal year is annually approved.

Medium and long-term business projections cover monthly periods over the next five years. Short-term projections consider daily periods covering only the next 90 days.

The Company permanently monitors the volume of funds to be settled by controlling cash flows to reduce funding costs, the risk involved in the renewal of loan agreements and compliance with the financial investment policy, while concurrently keeping minimum cash levels.

The following table shows the expected undiscounted settlement amounts in each time range. Projections were based on financial indicators linked to the related financial instruments and forecast according to average market expectations as disclosed in the Central Bank of Brazil's Focus Report, which provides the average expectations of market analysts for these indicators for the current year and for the next 3 years. As from 2024, 2023 indicators are repeated on an unaltered basis throughout the forecast period.

As disclosed in Notes 22.5 and 23.3, the Company and its subsidiaries have loans and financing agreements and debentures with covenants that if breached may have their payment accelerated.

On March 31, 2020, Copel recorded negative net working capital of R$333,215 in the Parent Company’s balance sheet. Management has been monitoring the liquidity and taking actions to balance the short-term financial capacity, with emphasis on: reduction of the Company's investment program and maintenance of cost reduction actions, as well as the extension of debt, already provided for by Administration.

36.2.3 Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or the future cash flows of a financial instrument shall oscillate due to changes in market prices, such as currency rates, interest rates and stock price. The purpose of managing this risk is to control exposures within acceptable limits, while optimizing return.

a) Foreign currency risk (US Dollar)

This risk comprises the possibility of losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, which may reduce assets or increase liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

The Company's foreign currency indebtedness is not significant and it is not exposed to foreign exchange derivatives. The Company monitors all relevant foreign exchangerates.

The effect of the exchange rate variation resulting from the power purchase agreement with Eletrobras (Itaipu) is transferred to customers in Copel DIS's next tariffadjustment.

The exchange rate risk posed by the purchase of gas arises from the possibility of Compagás reporting losses on the fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, increasing the amount in Reais of the accounts payable related to the gas acquired from Petrobras. This risk is mitigated by the monitoring and transfer of the price fluctuation through tariff, when possible. The Company monitors these fluctuations on an ongoing basis.

Sensitivity analysis of foreign currency risk - Dollar

The Company has developed a sensitivity analysis in order to measure the impact of the devaluation of the US dollar on itsloans and financing subject to currency risk.

The baseline scenario takes into account the existing balances in each account as of March 31, 2020and the probable scenario assumes a variation in the foreign exchange rate - prevailing at the end of the period (R$/US$5.00) based on the median market expectation for 2020 reported in the CentralBank'sFocus report of April 30, 2020. For the scenarios 1 and 2, deteriorations of 25% and 50%, respectively, were considered for the main risk factor for the financial instrument compared to the rate used in the probable scenario.

In addition to the sensitivity analysis required by CVM Resolution 475/2008, the Company evaluates its financial instruments considering the possible effects on profit and loss and equity of the risks evaluated by the Company's Management on the date of the quarterly information, as recommended by CPC 40 (R1) - Financial Instruments: Disclosure. Based on the equity position and the notional value of the financial instruments held as of March 31, 2020, it is estimated that these effects will approximate the amounts stated in the above table in the column for the forecast probable scenario, since the assumptions used by the Company are similar to those previouslydescribed.

b) Foreign exchange risk - euro

This risk arises from the possibility of loss due to fluctuations in exchange rates affecting fair value of Non-Deliverable Forward (NDF) transactions, whose gains and losses are recognized in the Company's statement of income.

Based on the notional amount of 22 million euros outstanding as of December 31, 2019, the fair value was estimated by the difference between the amounts contracted under the respective terms and the forward currency quotations (B3 reference rates), discounted to present value at the fixed rate as of the same date. The active balance, recorded as of March 31, 2020, is shown in Note 12. The liability balance, as of December 31, 2019, is presented in Note 29.

Sensitivity analysis of operations with derivative financial instruments

The Company developed a sensitivity analysis in order to measure the impact from exposure to fluctuation in exchange rate to Euro (€).

The sensitivity analyses were prepared in accordance with CVM Instruction 475/08, considering, for scenarios 1 and 2, 25% and 50% increase or decrease in exchange rates, applied to the forward rate as of March 31, 2020. The results obtained are shown below:

c) Interest rate and monetary variation risk

This risk comprises the possibility of losses due to fluctuations in interest rates or other indicators, which may reduce financial income or financial expenses or increase the financial expenses related to the assets and liabilities raised in the market.

The Company has not entered into derivative contracts to cover this risk, but has been continuously monitoring interest rates and market indexes in order to observe any need for contracting.

Sensitivity analysis of interest rate and monetary variation risk

The Company has developed a sensitivity analysis in order to measure the impact of variable interest rates and monetary variations on its financial assets and liabilities subject to these risks.

The baseline scenario takes into account the existing balances in each account as of March 31, 2020 while the probable scenario assumes balances reflecting varying indicators CDI/Selic: -2.75%, IPCA: -1.97%, IGP-DI: -4.70%, IGP-M: -4.90% and TJLP:-5.20%. estimated as market average projections for 2020 according to the Focus Report issued by the Central Bank of Brazil asof April 30, 2020, except TJLP that considers the Company's internalprojection.

For the scenarios 1 and 2, deteriorations of 25% and 50%, respectively, were considered for the main risk factor for the financial instrument compared to the rate used in the probable scenario.

In addition to the sensitivity analysis required by CVM Resolution 475/2008, the Company evaluates its financial instruments considering the possible effects on profit and loss and equity of the risks evaluated by the Company's Management on the date of the financial statements, as recommended by CPC 40(R1). Based on the equity position and the notional value of the financial instruments held as of March 31, 2020, it is estimated that these effects will approximate the amounts stated in the above table in the column for the forecast probable scenario, since the assumptions used by the Company are similar to those previouslydescribed.

36.2.4 Electricity shortage risk

Approximately 64% of installed capacity in Brazil currently comes from hydroelectric generation, as informed by the Generation Information Bank of ANEEL, which makes Brazil and the geographic region in which we operate subject to unpredictable hydrological conditions, due to non-cyclical deviations of mean precipitation. Unsatisfactory hydrological conditions may cause, among other things, the implementation of comprehensive programs of electricity savings, such as rationalization or even a mandatory reduction of consumption, which is the case of rationing.

Since 2014, the reservoirs of the Southeast/Midwest, North and Northeast Brazilian regions have been subject to adverse climate situations, leading agencies responsible for this industry to adopt water resources optimization measures to guarantee fully meeting electricitydemand.In the first quarter of 2020, the reservoirs in the Northeast and North recovered their levels, which practically reduces the risk of rationing in these subsystems to zero. As the system is interconnected, the South and Southeast/Midwest subsystems, despite being at lower storage levels, results in having a low risk of energy shortage since they can make use of the energy stored in the other two subsystems.

The Electric Sector Monitoring Committee (CMSE) has maintained the energy deficit risk indicators within the safety margin in short-term projections. The same position is adopted by ONS regarding the risk of deficit in the medium term, as stated in the 2019-2023 Energy OperationPlan - PEN 2019.

Although dam storage levels are not ideal, from the standpoint of regulatory agencies, when combined with other variables, such as a slower consumption growth, they are sufficient to keep the risk of deficit within the safety margin established by the National Energy Policy Council (Conselho Nacional de Política Energética - CNPE, in Portuguese) (maximum risk of 5%) in all subsystems.

36.2.5 Risk of GSF impacts

The Energy Reallocation Mechanism (Mecanismo de Realocação de Energia - MRE, in Portuguese) is a system of redistribution of electricpowergenerated, characteristic of the Brazilian electric sector, which has its existence by the understanding, at the time, that there is a need for a centralized operation associated with a centrally calculated optimal price known as PLD. Since generators have no control over their production, each plant receives a certain amount of virtual energy which can be compromised through contracts. This value, which enables the registration of bilateral contracts, is known as Physical Guarantee (Garantia Física - GF, in Portuguese) and is also calculated centrally. Unlike PLD, which is calculated on a weekly basis, GF, as required by Law, is recalculated every five years, with a limit of increase or decrease, restricted to 5% by revision or 10% in the concessionperiod.

The contracts need to have an energy physical guarantee basis. This is done, especially, through the allocation of power generated received from the MRE or purchase. The GSF is the ratio of the entire hydroelectric generation of the MRE participants to the GF sum of all the MRE plants. Basically, the GSF is used to calculate how much each plant will receive from generation to back up its GF. Thus, knowing the GSF of a given month the company will be able to know if it will need to back up its contracts through purchases.

Whenever GSF multiplied by GF is less than the sum of contracts, the company will need to buy the difference in the spot market. However, whenever GSF multiplied by GF is greater than the total contracts, the company will receive the difference to the PLD.

The low inflows that have been recorded since 2014, as well as problems with delays in the expansion of the transmission system have resulted in low GSF values, resulting in heavy losses for the companies holding MRE participating hydroelectric projects.

For plants with contracts in the Free Contracting Environment - ACL, the main way to manage the low GSF risk is not to compromise the entire GF with contracts, approach currently adopted by the Company.

For the contracts in the ACR, Law 13,203/2015 allowed the generators to contract insurance for electricity demand (load), by means of payment of a risk premium. Copel adopted this approach to protect contracts related to energy generated by the Mauá, Santa Clara, Fundão, Baixo Iguaçu and Colíder Thermoelectric Plants and Cavernoso II Small HPP.

For the distribution segment, the effects of the GSF are perceived in the costs associated with quotas of Itaipu, of Angra and the plants whose concessions were renewed in accordance with Law 12,783/2013, as well as in the costs of the contracts for power availability with thermoelectric plants. This is a financial risk, since there is guarantee of neutrality of expenses with energy purchases through a tariff transfer.

36.2.6 Risk of non-renewal of concessions - generation andtransmission

Currently, the extension of energy generation and transmission concessions, achieved by Law No. 9,074/1995, is regulated by Law No. 12,783/2013. Concessions for hydroelectric power generation and electric power transmission may be extended, at the discretion of the granting authority, only once, for a period of up to 30 years. Thermoelectric power generation concessions have an extension term limited to 20 years.

The concession operator should request extension of concession at least 60 months before the final contract date or after granting of concessions to hydroelectric power generation and electric power transmission and distribution plants, and of up to 24 months for thermoelectric plants. The Concession Grantor may advance effects of extension by up to 60 months counted as of contract or grant date and may also define initial tariff or revenue.

However, in 2019, Decree No. 10,135/2019 was published, which regulated the granting of concession contracts in the electricity sector associated with privatization through sale of control by holder of a public service concession for electricity generation, changing the exploration regime to Independent Power Producer (IPP). According to the Decree, the manifestation of sale of the concession must take place within up to 42 months from the date of the related formal agreement, and any sale must take place within up to 18 months from the concession end date. If sale of control of the venture does not occur within the specified period, the plant must be subject to auction by the granting authority and the same concessionaire can participate in the auction, if it meets the qualification conditions.

Copel has 2 plants whose concession ends in the next 5 years.

For HPP Governador Bento Munhoz da Rocha Netto (HPP GBM) (1,676 MW), whose concession will end in 2023, the Company has not expressed any interest in extending the concession, as internal studies have shown that the extension through early change of the exploration regime would be economically and financially disadvantageous in relation to exploration of the plant under the current regime until concession end. On March 3, 2020, Copel GeT transferred the concession of HPP GBM to subsidiary F.D.A. Geração de Energia Elétrica S.A. with the purpose of divesting the control of this concessionaire and, thus, allow a new concession grant for 30 years.

With respect to HPP São Jorge, whose concession ends in 2024, Copel did not express interest in the renewal and intends, at the end of the concession, to request ANEEL to convert the granting of concession into granting of registration.

Regarding the Figueira HPP concession, expired in March 2019, the Company awaits the conclusion of the related ANEEL procedural steps to execute any amendment to the Concession Agreement. The plant is undergoing a modernization process and will have as direct benefits the improvement in energy efficiency and the reduction of pollutant emissions in the atmosphere, in comparison with the old plant.

According to the law, the Company may express its intention to extend the concession of the Apucaraninha HPP until October 2020 and the Guaricana and Chaminé HPPs until August 2021. If the Company does not express an interest in the extension of the current regime, the concessions, upon expiration, must be returned to the Concession Grantor.

Copel GeT does not have any transmission concession ending in the next ten years.

36.2.7 Risk on non-renewal of concessions - distribution of electricity

The fifth amendment to Copel DIS's concession contract No. 46/1999 imposes economic and financial efficiency covenants and indicators that consider the duration and frequency of service interruptions (DECi and FECi). Failure to comply with the conditions will result in termination of the concession (clause eighteen, subclause one), with due regard for the provisions of the contract, particularly the right to full defense and adversary system.

Indicators and penalties

Targets defined for Copel Distribuição in the first five years after extension of the concession agreement

36.2.8 Risk of non-extension of the gas distributionconcession

As presented in Note 2.1.1, the expiration date of the gas distribution concession of the subsidiary Compagás is under discussion with the concession grantor.

In the event of non-extension of the concession, Compagás will be entitled to compensation for investments made in the last 10 years prior to the end of the concession at their depreciated replacement value, according to the contractualclause.

36.2.9 Risk of overcontracting and undercontracting ofelectricity

Under the current regulatory model, the agreement for purchase of electric power by distributors is regulated by Law 10,484/2014 and Decree 5,163/2004, which determine that the purchase of energy must be in the volume necessary to serve 100% of the distributor's market.

The difference between the costs remunerated by the tariff and those actually incurred in the power purchases are fully passed on to captive consumers, as long as the distributor presents a contracting level between 100% and 105% of its market. However, if distributors determine contracting levels lower or higher than the regulatory limits, there is the assurance of neutrality if it is identified that such violation derives from extraordinary and unforeseen events that are not manageable by the buyer.

In relation to the 2020 contracting, the supply and demand scenarios considered in this first quarter indicated that this year Copel DIS would reach a contracting level within the regulatory limits. However, after the adoption of government measures to contain the effects of Covid-19, implemented in the second half of March, a significant reduction in the consumption of electric power was observed in the State of Paraná, a phenomenon also observed in practically all other Brazilian states.

This current scenario, in addition to being unprecedented, raises uncertainties about its evolution and future effects. Accordingly, although an increase in the level of contracting is expected, it is not yet possible to state that it will result in overcontracting. However, as the daily monitoring of consumption provides a greater volume of data and information, it will be possible to reassess the initial projections and measure this risk.

In addition, it is important to note that all distributors have sent ANEEL, on a daily basis, information about their realized markets, so that the regulatory body has independent and isonomic access to the effects of social isolation measures. Accordingly, Copel DIS understands that due to the extraordinary nature of this situation, it should maintain the guarantee of neutrality in the purchase of energy preserved and will endeavor to ensure that any overcontracting is recognized as involuntary.

36.2.10 Gas shortage risk

The natural gas market in Paraná is composed of Compagás' consumers (non-thermal market) and the Araucária Thermoelectric Plant (UEG Araucária). This market is currently supplied by contracts with Petrobras that uses the transportation infrastructure of the Brazil-Bolivia gas pipeline (Gasbol). Compagás has a contract for the supply of natural gas from Bolivia until December 2021, and is making a public bidding for the supply of natural gas as from January 2022. UEG Araucária, on the other hand, negotiates short-term natural gas contracts for not having electricity generated contracted in the regulated environment.

In the current situation of the natural gas sector in Brazil, the New Gas Market program is coordinated by the Ministry of Mines and Energy together with the Civil House of the Presidency of the Republic, the Ministry of Economy, the Administrative Council for Economic Defense, the National Petroleum Agency and the Energy Research Company - EPE, whose purpose is to open the natural gas market in order to make it dynamic, competitive, integrated with the electric and industrial sector, with an improved regulation.

Within the scope of the New Gas Market, the offer of natural gas already demonstrates growth and diversification, having as alternatives the import of gas from Bolivia, import of liquefied natural gas (LNG) that has a large world offer, use of natural gas from onshore basins and greater use of natural gas from the pre-salt which has large volumes to be extracted.

In relation to the transportation network, the changes in regulation to allow access to new agents, the public calls opportunely made by TBG (Gasbol transporter) with the purpose of establishing capacity contracting regime in the gas pipeline and the Gas Pipeline Indicative Plan (PIG) coordinated by EPE, give a vision of better structuring of the sector and adequate planning to meet current and future demands, even though investments are needed for the latter.

A possible shortage in gas supply could result in losses to Copel due to a reduction in revenue from the natural gas distribution service provided by Compagás, as well as any penalty resulting from non-compliance with the obligations contained in the concession contract. In addition, in this scenario, UEG Araucária would probably be kept out of operation. However, this risk is considered low in view of the situation of the New Gas Market.

36.2.11 Risk of non-performance of wind farms

The power generation purchase and sale contracts for wind power are subject to performance clauses, which provide for a minimum annual and four-year generation of the physical guarantee committed in the auction. Ventures are subject to climatic factors associated with wind velocity uncertainties. Non-compliance with what is stated in the agreement may jeopardize future revenues of the Company. At March 31, 2020, the consolidated balance of the provision recorded in liabilities referring to the non-performance is R$69,352 (R$65,790 at December 31, 2019), which may be offset by higher future production, measured within the annual and/or four-yearly contractual cycle.

36.2.12 Risk related to price of power purchase and sale transactions

The Company operates in the market for the purchase and sale of energy with the objective of achieving results with changes in energy prices, subject to the risk limits established by Management. This activity, therefore, exposes the Company to the risk of future energy price.

The future purchase and sales of energy are recognized at fair value through profit or loss, calculated by the difference between the contracted price and the future market price estimated by the Company.

Based on the notional value of R$5,071,848 for purchase contracts and R$5,115,179 for contracts for the sale of electricity, outstanding on March 31, 2020, the fair value was estimated using the prices defined by the Company in the last week of March 2020, which represented the best estimate of the future market price. The discount rate uses the return rate of the NTN-B disclosed by ANBIMA as of March 31, 2020, adjusted by the credit risk rate and the additional project risk.

The outstanding balances relating to these transactions at March 31, 2020 are presented below:

Sensitivity analysis on the power purchase and sale transactions

The main risk factor is the exposure to variation of energy market prices. The variation of the discount rate does not have a relevant impact on the fair value determined.

The sensitivity analyses were prepared in accordance with CVM Instruction 475/08. For the probable scenario, balances updated with the market price curve and NTN-B rate on May 5, .2020 were considered. For scenarios 1 and 2, the increase or decrease of 25% and 50% was applied to the future prices considered in the probable scenario. The results obtained are as follows:

36.2.13 Counterparty risk in the energy market

Since free energy market still does not have a counterparty acting as guarantor of all agreements (clearing house), there is a bilateral risk of default. Thus, the Company is exposed to the risk of failure in the supply of energy contracted by the seller. In the event of such failure, the Company must buy energy at the spot market price, being further subject to regulatory penalties and loss of amounts paid.

The Company follows a policy that establishes limits for possible operations with each counterparty, after analyzing its credit worthiness, maturity and history.

In addition, even if our policy is more restrictive, and the counterparties present good financial condition, the Company is exposed to systemic events in which the default of one agent ends up affecting other energy trading companies in a "domino effect" until reaching the Company's counterparties.

36.3 Capital management

The Company seeks to keep a strong capital base to maintain the trust of investors, creditors and market and ensure the future development of the business. Management also strives to maintain a balance between the highest possible returns with more adequate levels of borrowings and the advantages and the assurance afforded by a healthy capital position. Thus, it maximizes the return for all stakeholders in its operations, optimizing the balance of debts and equity.

The Company monitors capital by using an index represented by adjusted consolidated net debt divided by adjusted consolidated EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), for the last twelve months. The corporate limit established in the debt indentures provides for maintenance of ratio below 3.5 while any expectation of failing to meet this target will prompt Management to take steps to correct its course by the end of each reporting period.

36.3.1 The equity to debt ratio is shown below:

37 Related Party Transactions

41 Subsequent events

41.1 Coronavirus (Covid-19) effect on the financial statements

The expectation of a drop in growth and a recession in some business segments, resulting from the suspension of certain businesses and activities caused by the coronavirus outbreak, affects the performance of the Brazilian economy, with subsequent effects on Copel's operations, mainly resulting in the reduction in demand for electric power, which may generate exposure to the energy levels already contracted in the free market and also affect the regulatory limits for contracting in the regulated market. In addition, the Company may have effects arising from: (i) an increase in defaults, (ii) a reduction in short-term future prices, and (iii) a delay in the construction schedule, consequently resulting in a greater impact on the Company's financial results.

On April 8, 2020, Provisional Act 950 was issued by the Federal Government, which provides for temporary emergency measures for the electric power sector to deal with the state of public emergency, establishing an exemption on energy tariffs, funded by the charge of the electric power sector charge called the Energy Development Account - CDE, for low-income consumers up to consumption of 220 kWh/month, for a period of three months, and providing funds through a loan intended to provide financial relief to electric power distributors. On the same date, Aneel published Order No. 986, authorizing the Electric Power Trading Chamber - CCEE, to pass on to sector agents, with consumption characteristics, the excess financial resources available in the reserve fund for future burden relief, to strengthen the sector's liquidity amid the pandemic. Also on April 8, 2020, the Company obtained access to financial resources in the amount of R$ 84,881, which will be recorded as a sectorial financial liability. Said order authorizes CCEE to make new transfers throughout 2020.

The loan provided for in Provisional Act No. 950, which is currently being handled by ANEEL and the Ministries of Mines and Energy (“MME”) and the Economy, and which provides for the creation of the Covid Account, aims to balance cash from electric power distribution companies and to prevent the effects of default and reduced electric power consumption during the coronavirus pandemic from affecting the entire sector. It also intends to ease tariff pressure on consumers in 2020, due to extraordinary costs in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.

It should be noted that the provisional act does not cover energy contracts entered into on the free market. Copel may have an impact on revenue from this market due to the reduction in contracted volumes or the postponement of the expiry of its customers' energy bills. Any temporary and emergency measures by the Federal Government should not reach the free energy market, which should seek bilateral negotiations or have the situation to be arbitrated by the Courts.

In relation to the captive distribution market, Copel estimates that in the short term there will be a reduction in revenue and in the collection of receivables from energy supply, as well as a possible increase in the default of large customers, served by a higher voltage, and also of the class of commercial consumption, as a result of the prolongation of the social distancing policy. In the medium term, the effects can be extended to other consumption classes, especially residential.

Due to the measures applied by ANEEL in the context of Covid-19, the Company is not suspending the supply of energy to residential customers, or to essential services and activities. Accordingly, a possible increase in consumer defaults, coupled with a drop in collection and the stoppage of various commercial and industrial activities resulting from social isolation measures may adversely affect the Company's financial and economic results. Eventually, with the drop in energy consumption, the Company may be in a position above the permitted regulatory limit for over contracting electric power.

Copel has followed the load projections issued by official bodies in the electric power sector, which already show signs of retraction in 2020, strongly impacted by the drop in consumption in the commercial and industrial segments. This drop has caused notifications by energy buyers, from the perspective, and under the allegation, of unforeseeable circumstances and force majeure generated by the Covid-19 pandemic, requiring a reduction of the amounts of energy contracts and/or installments of overdue bills.

Forced by the retraction of the load, the PLD and GSF projections for the remainder of 2020 already show a decrease in relation to the projections prior to the establishment of the state of public emergency caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Another matter for attention is the possible impact on the implementation schedule of generation and transmission projects, or even on the availability of existing assets resulting from local actions that prevent access to facilities or problems with suppliers in the sector, also affected by the crisis. Management, diligently, has followed the deadlines for the works in progress and maintains continuous communication with the regulator about any delays that may occur up to normalization of commercial activities in the market as a whole.

In order to monitor and mitigate the impacts and consequences on its main activities, Copel established a Contingency Committee, as mentioned in Note 1 (a), and its contracts, the liquidity of the energy market and the spot market price of energy are constantly monitored. It is also engaged in negotiations with the Regulatory Agency of the Brazilian electric power sector for the implementation of guidelines that guarantee the maintenance of the economic and financial sustainability of the entire chain of generation, transmission, sale and distribution of electric power and gas.

41.2 Entry into operation of venture - Mata de Santa Geneva

On 05.03.2020, the commercial operation of the 500 kV Araraquara 2 - Fernão Dias (Circuit 1) 241-km transmission line, venture belonging to Mata de Santa Genebra Transmissão S.A.), jointly controlled by Copel GeT, began. The commercial operation of the new transmission line was authorized according to the Provisional Release Term (“TLP”) ONS No. 71/5/2020 and will increase the Annual Permitted Revenue of Mata de Santa Genebra by approximately R$ 52.1 million.

COMMENTS ON PERFORMANCE

for the quarters ended March 31, 2020

All amounts expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais

1 Distribution Lines

Compact-Design Distribution Lines -Copel Distribuição S.A. has implemented compact-design distribution lines in urban areas with a high concentration of trees surrounding distribution grids. This technology reduces the number of trees cut down or trimmed and improves the quality of power supply by reducing the number of unplanned outages. The total length of compact-design distribution lines installed at the end of March 2020 was 11,823 km (10,671 km in March 2019), up by 1,152 km year-over-year, a variation of 10.8%.

Secondary Isolated Lines -Copel Distribuição is also investing in low-voltage (127/220V) secondary isolated lines, which offer substantial advantages over regular overhead lines, including: improvement in DEC - Equivalent Time of Interruption per Consumer Unit and FEC - Equivalent Frequency of Interruption per Consumer Unit distribution performance indicators; making illegal energy connections more difficult; improved environmental conditions; reduced areas subject to tree trimming; improved safety; reduced voltage drops throughout the grid; and increased transformer useful life due to the reduction of short-circuits, among other advantages. The total length of secondary isolated lines as of the end of March 2020 was 19,402 km (18,435 km in March 2019), up by 967 km year-over-year, a variation of 5.2%.

2 Power Market

Market behavior -Power generation by Copel Geração e Transmissão S.A. and wind farms totaled 2,475GWh in the first three months of 2020 (4,825GWh in the same period in 2019). The volume of energy purchased by Copel Distribuição by means of CCEARs (auctions) was 2,904GWh (3,068GWh in the same period in 2019), while the volume purchased from Itaipu was 1,367GWh (1,375GWh in the same period in 2019), as described below:

Energy sale -The table below sets out Copel's total energy sales, opened between Copel Distribuição, Copel Geração e Transmissão, Copel Comercialização and wind farms:

102

Captive Market of Copel Distribuição - Energy sales to Copel Distribuição's captive market totaled 5,180 GWh in 1Q20, down 1.2%, as a result of the migration of industrial customers to the free market and the lower consumption in the commercial class, partially offset by the 1.3% growth in consumption in the residential segment. It is important to stress that the increased basis of comparison, due to the average higher temperatures recorded in the first quarter of the prior year, also influenced the performance of the captive market.

The residential segment consumed 2,023GWh from January to March 2020, up by 1.3%,mainly due to the 2.1% increase in the number of customers, partially offset by the 0.8% decrease in average monthly consumption (175kWh/month in 1Q20 compared to 177kWh/ month in 1Q19). In the first quarter of 2020, this class represented 39.1% of captive market consumption, totaling 3,850,721 consumers at the end of March 2020.

The industrial class registered a drop of 9.4% in the period from January to March 2020, totaling 596GWh, mainly reflecting the migration of customers to the free market, which would represent an average consumption of approximately 77GWh in the quarter. At the end of March 2020, the industrial class represented 11.5% of consumption in the captive market, with 71,586 consumers.

The commercial class consumed 1,243 GWh in the first quarter of 2020, a reduction of 4.2%. This result was mainly influenced by the drop in consumption in the building construction segment, as well as in artistic, creative and entertainment activities and forestry production. This result was partially offset by the positive consumption performance for wholesale trade activities. At the end of 1Q20, this class represented 24.0% of consumption in the captive market, with 407,554 consumers.

The rural class recorded a 4.5% increase in energy consumption in 1Q20, totaling 695GWh. At the end of March 2020, this class represented 13.4% of Copel's captive market consumption with 349,237 consumers.

The consumption of other segments (public bodies, public lighting, public services and own consumption) totaled 623GWh from January to March 2020, with an decrease of 0.5%. Jointly, these segments accounted for 12.0% of the captive market, totaling 58,870 consumers at the end of 1Q20.

Number of consumers -The number of end consumers (captive consumers of Copel Distribuição and free consumers of Copel GeT, Copel Comercialização and other suppliers within the concession area of Copel Distribuição) billed in March 2019 was 4,656,533, up by 1.7% against the same month in 2018.

6 Economic and Financial Results

Revenues (Note 32)

Until March 2020, net operating revenues were R$4,153,941, 6.6% up against R$3,896,006 recorded in the same period in 2019.

This variation was mainly explained by:

a) 7.8% increase in Revenues from Electricity Sales to Final Customers, caused bythe cessation of the CDE-Electricity Charge as from October 2019 due to the discharge of the ACR-account and the 4.2% increase in the volume of energy sold to final consumers - with an increase of 22.2% in the Copel GeT and Copel Comercialização free market, offset by the 1.2% reduction in consumption of Copel DIS's captive market due to the migration of industrial customers to the free market, the lower consumption in the commercial category, partially offset by the growth of 1.3% in consumption in the residential segment and the high basis of comparison, due to the average of higher temperatures recorded in the first quarter of the prior year, which also influenced the lower performance of the captive market, as well as the tariff reduction of 4.11 % for Copel DIS valid as from June 24, 2019.

b) increase of 32.8% in revenue from electric power supply, mainly due to the 22.4% increase in energy sold under bilateral contracts and 2.5% in contracts in a regulated environment, offset by the lower energy settlement at CCEE and the lower average PLD in the period;

c) stability in the electric power availability revenue, essentially due to the 11.63% tariff adjustment applied in June 2019 to the distributor's consumers and the 0.6% growth in energy consumption, offset by the lower O&M revenue of transmission assets;

d) 16.1% decrease in Revenues from Telecomunications, chiefly due to the decrease in the number of circuits, particularly in the retail market; and

e) 16.4% decrease in Revenues from Distribution of Piped Gas impacted by the reduction in gas sales volume.

Operating Costs and Expenses (Note 33)

Operating costs and expenses totaled R$3,309,028 in the first quarter of 2020, higher up 8.7% compared to R$3,043,019 recorded in the same period in 2019. The main highlights were as follows:

a) increase of 6.2% in electricity purchased for resale mainly due to the greater purchase of energy from Itaipu and bilateral contracts to handle the greater volume of energy sold in the free market.

b) 5.0% decrease in remunerations of Personnel and management, except for PLR provision, mainly due to the reduction of headcount and the cost reduction policy; partially offset by the salary adjustment, according to the collective bargaining agreement, of 2.92% in October 2019.

107

c) 24.1% decrease in expenses with natural gas and inputs for gas-related operations due to the decrease in volume of gas purchases for resale.

d) 28.2% increase in the Depreciation and amortization account due to beginning of commercial operation of Colíder, Cutia and Baixo Iguaçu plants in 2019, as well as of telecommunication assets.

e) 30.1% increase in Credit losses, provisions and reversals due to the of impairment in the generation segment and the increase in expected credit losses.

f) 10.2% decrease in Other operating costs and expenses due to lower losses on the decommissioning of assets and in financial compensation for the use of water resources.

Equity in earnings of investees

39.6% increase in relation to the same period in 2019, mainly due to the better result of the jointly controlled companies Guaraciaba and Cantareira, offset by the negative result of Caiuá.

Financial Results (Note 34)

The positive variation of R$ 3,627 in financial results corresponds to 3.7% compared to the same period in 2019. The highlights were the increase in revenue from exchange variation on collateral linked to a foreign currency loan agreement, at fair value in foreign currency forward contracts and the lower debt burden, offset by the higher exchange variation expenses on the purchase of electricity from Itaipu.

EBITDA

The EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is as follows:

108

The EBITDA is a non-accounting measure prepared by the Company, reconciled with its financial statements, in accordance with the provisions of Circular Letter/CVM/SNC/SEP 01/2007 and CVM Instruction 527/2012. It is not a measure recognized by accounting practices adopted in Brazil or international accounting standards, does not have a standard meaning and cannot be comparable to measures with similar titles provided by other companies. The Company discloses it because it is used to measure its performance.

The EBITDA cannot be considered separately or as a substitute of net income or operating income, as an indicator of operating performance or cash flow, or to measure the liquidity or the ability to pay debt.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

To the Shareholders and Management of

Companhia Paranaense de Energia - COPEL

Curitiba - PR

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of Companhia Paranaense de Energia - COPEL (the "Company"), identified as parent company and consolidated, respectively, included in the Quarterly Information Form - ITR for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which comprises the statement of financial position as at March 31, 2020 and the related statements of income and of comprehensive income for the three- month period ended and the statements of changes in equity and of cash flows for the three-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.

The Company's Management is responsible for the preparation of this individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Reporting and with international standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, as well as for the presentation of such information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission - CVM, applicable to the preparation of the Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on review of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards on auditing and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the Quarterly Information - ITR referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) and international standard IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR) and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission - CVM.

Emphasis of matter

COVID 19 related issues

Without modifying our conclusion, we draw attention to Notes 1 and 41 to the interim financial information, in which the Company describes the effects and potential effects of COVID-19 on its operations, as well as the planned actions and actions taken up to the present date.

Other matters

Statements of value added

The interim financial information referred to above includes the individual and consolidated Statements of Value Added (“DVA”) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, prepared under the responsibility of the Company's Management and presented as supplementary information for the purposes of the international standard IAS 34. These statements have been subject to review procedures performed in conjunction with the review of the Quarterly Information (ITR) to determine whether they are reconciled with the interim financial information and accounting records, as applicable, and if their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in technical pronouncement CPC 09 - Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, we are not aware of any fact that makes us believe that these DVA have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria set out in said standard and consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
