[ESCELSA LOGO]    QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

               accordance with specific Public Electric Utilities Service
               regulations, interest on the shareholder's own capital applied in
               financing projects under construction is calculated according to
               Long-term Interest Rates (TJLP) and is credited directly to
               capital reserves in Shareholders' Equity.

          g)   Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies subject
               to indexation - such items are subject to restatement because of
               exchange and monetary variations for contractual or legal reasons
               and are updated through the balance sheet date. Foreign currency
               liabilities are converted into Reais according to the exchange
               rates informed by the Brazilian Central Bank (US$ 1 = R$3.8949 on
               September 30, 2002 and US$ 1 = R$ 2.8444 on June 30, 2002).

          h)   Income tax and social contribution - income tax recorded in the
               results of the period is calculated based on taxable income
               (adjusted net income) at a rate of 15% plus 10% on taxable income
               exceeding R$240/year, or R$60/three months, according to the
               current tax law. Social contribution recorded in the results of
               the period is calculated based on taxable income prior to income
               tax, at a rate of 8%, plus an additional of 1%, which is
               applicable through 12/31/03. The deferred income tax and social
               contribution were recorded as tax credits, based on the tax
               losses, negative basis of the social contribution and temporary
               differences, considering the rates of such taxes that will be
               prevailing on the date of the realization.

          i)   Obligations related to the concession - are obligations that are
               part of the concession agreement for electric utilities
               representing, basically, contributions from the Federal
               Government, donations without conditions set forth as to returns
               to the contributors, subventions and contributions received from
               consumers exclusively for the purpose of investment in electric
               energy distribution. The expiration of these obligations is
               determined by the Regulatory Agency, and will be withdrawn at the
               end of the concession period. As from January 1, 2002, the
               balance of this account is being classified as a deduction to
               property, plant and equipment.

          j)   Pension plans - the Company is the sponsor of Fundacao Escelsa de
               Seguridade Social - ESCELSOS, which manages the pension fund for
               its employees. The costs, contributions and the actuarial
               obligation associated with pension plans are calculated at the
               balance sheet date by independent actuaries. As from December 31,
               2001, such amounts are calculated and recorded in accordance with
               Deliberation CVM no. 371.

          k)   Earnings (loss) per share - these amounts are calculated based on
               the number of shares outstanding at the balance sheet date for
               the fiscal period.

          l)   Revenue recognition - revenues and expenses for all services are
               recognized on an accrual basis of accounting, recognized when
               incurred. Billing for all customers is made on a monthly basis
               according to the meter reading calendar. Unbilled revenues,
               corresponding to the period between the date of the last reading
               and the end of the month, are estimated and recognized as revenue
               in the month in which the energy was consumed.

          m)   Estimates - financial statement preparation according to
               corporate law accounting practices requires that the Company's
               Management make estimates for the recognition of certain
               transactions that impact assets and liabilities and revenues and
               expenses of ESCELSA and its subsidiaries, which are reflected in
               data disclosed in its financial statements. The final figures
               that are recorded upon the realization of such transactions in
               subsequent reporting periods may differ from these estimates.
               Most of these estimates refer to the recognition of impacts from
               the Emergency Program for Reducing Electric Energy Consumption,
               the Compensation Account for Cost Variations for Portion A - CVA,
               Provision for Doubtful Accounts, Provision for Contingencies and
               Pension and Retirement Plans.

          n)   Taxation of transactions in the Electric Power Wholesale Market
               (MAE) - According to article 32 of Provisional Measure 66, of
               August 29, 2002, regulated by Normative Instruction 199, issued
               on September 12, 2002, the Company opted for PIS/PASEP special
               tax basis. This basis is related to revenues recorded according
               MAE rules and the continuity of application at the rate of 0.65%.

     3.2. Consolidated Financial Statements

          The consolidated financial statements include the balance sheets and
          the statements of income for the quarter ended September 30, 2002 and
          June 30, 2002 for ESCELSA, and its subsidiaries MAGISTRA, TVIX and
          ESCELSAPAR. The main consolidation procedures adopted were as follows:

          a)   elimination of ESCELSA's investments in controlled subsidiaries;
          b)   elimination of account balances between ESCELSA and its
               subsidiaries included in the consolidation, as well as the
               accounts between such subsidiaries;
          c)   recognition of the minority shareholders' participation in the
               balance sheet and statement of income;
          d)   disclosure of the goodwill recorded for the acquisition of
               ENERSUL by MAGISTRA.
          The profit and the shareholders' equity at ESCELSA are equal to those
          of the consolidated group, as there was no unrealized income in the
          intercompany operations.

     Regulatory Asset

     Based on provisions included in Provisional Measure n(Degree)14 of December
     21, 2001 (converted into Law no. 10,438 of April 26, 2002), Resolution CGE
     no. 91, of December 21, 2001, ANEEL Resolution no. 31, of January 24, 2002
     and ANEEL Resolution no. 72 of February 7, 2002, the Company made a
     computation of the amount of the extraordinary tariff recovery to be
     applied to all of the concession areas for electric energy distribution, to
     be recognized as the basis for re-establishing the financial-economic
     balance of the concession contracts, through the recovery of the
     consumption losses which were incurred as a result of the Emergency Program
     for Reducing Electric Energy Consumption - PRE from June 2001 through
     February 2002.

     ANEEL Resolutions 480 and 481, issued on August 29, 2002, approved the
     amounts related to the recovery of losses during the Emergency Program for
     Reducing Electric Consumption - PRE incurred from June, 2001 to February,
     2002

     According to ANEEL Resolution no. 484, of August 29, 2002, the
     extraordinary tariff for the recovery will be in force for the maximum
     period of 70 (seventy) months, starting December 2001.

     The increase in tariffs for final customers approved by ANEEL for ESCELSA
     and ENERSUL for the recovery of the rationing losses were as follows:

      o   2.9% for residential and rural clients (except low-income customers)
          and public lighting;
      o   7.9% for all other clients.
     The regulatory asset, related to the extraordinary tariff for the recovery
     of the rationing losses, had the following movement during the period:

     The amount of R$44.893, (R$76.148, consolidated), was ratified on August
     29, 2002 by Aneel Rule 482. The amount refers to period from January 1,
     2001 to October 25, 2001 and will be recovered in connection with the
     regulatory asset through extraordinary tariff increases (see note 5).

8.   TAX CREDITS

     Tax credits classified as current assets correspond to income tax withheld
     on cash investments, which is being compensated with tax debits authorized
     by the Internal Revenue Service.

     Tax credits classified as long-term assets, as listed below, generated by
     fiscal losses, negative basis of social contribution and other amounts that
     constitute temporary adjustments for reduction of future taxation, were
     recorded based on Companies' estimated future profitability, considering
     that the realization period will not exceed 10 years.

     As a result of the rules laid down by CVM Instruction no. 371, of June 27,
     2002, the Company did not record new tax credits in the amount of R$152,813
     (consolidated - R$160,923).

     According to the estimated future profitability, as mentioned above, the
     Company determined the following fiscal assets:

     The Company does not engage in transactions or agreements with related
     companies under terms or conditions less favorable than would be exercised
     with third parties. The transactions refer essentially to services
     rendered/received to/from related companies.
     The consolidated financial statements show primarily the balance of
     inter-company loans between the parent company MAGISTRA and the subsidiary
     ESC90, as detailed below, which were made at similar terms to those
     practiced in the Brazilian financial market.

     1)   Interest rate: TJLP + 4% per annum;
          Maturity: November 2004;
          Balance: R$ 5,160.
     2)   Interest Rate: 100% of CDI;
          Maturity: several dates through December 31, 2002;
          Balance: R$ 57,155.

     MAGISTRA's financial income from subsidiary ESC90 totaling R$7,036 (R$4,433
     on 09/30/2001) in the consolidated statement is recorded as other financial
     income. The guarantees are promissory notes corresponding to 125% of
     principal.

     Management understands that the provisions recorded are sufficient to cover
     eventual losses from the ongoing litigation. Based on the opinion of the
     Company's legal counsel, all litigation for which the probability of a
     favorable outcome was estimated as remote for the Company was provided for.
     Furthermore, there are labor, civil and fiscal cases pending in the total
     amount of R$34,674 , for which the probability of a favorable outcome was
     estimated as likely and no provisions were recorded on the financial
     statements.

     COFINS:

     Provided for based on the amounts deposited from May 1996 to July 1999,
     based on a preliminary injunction obtained in May 1996 by way of a tax
     immunity claim.

     With the decision by the Supreme Court - STF in July 1999, upholding the
     constitutionality of COFINS tax on electric energy transactions, the
     Company converted the deposited amounts, normalizing the taxes payments and
     reclassified the provision to the current asset. The Company awaits the
     final judicial decision ruling for a reversion of the deposits and
     subsequent payment of the amounts provided for.

     Labor contingencies:

     Refer to several labor claims against the Company, which claim payment of
     overtime, hazards, reintegration, among other items.

     Civil contingencies

     The civil contingencies include suits in which the Company is a defendant,
     being in most of cases related to moral and material damages claims, among
     other challenging amounts paid by customers for tariff increases based on
     DNAEE regulations 38 and 45 of January 27, 1986 and March 4, 1986,
     respectively, during the Cruzado Plan.

     Fiscal contingencies

     The Company is also a party of a administrative process with the Federal
     Reserve, pending final decision, for compensation of amounts overpaid
     related to FINSOCIAL, due to the unconstitutionality of the Decrees - Law
     nos. 2,445 and 2,499.

     There is also a preliminary decision in lower court which guarantees
     restitution and/or compensation of amounts overpaid related to fines on tax
     and contributions made spontaneously and untimely. The fines exemption are
     being requested based on article 138 of the National Tax Code - CTN. Based
     on its legal counsel, the Company compensated the amounts related to
     past-due contributions (PIS, COFINS, IRPJ and CSLL), as per Article 66 of
     Law no. 8,383/91. Conservatively, the Company maintained provisions for
     amounts corresponding to the above mentioned taxes and contributions.

15.  CAPITAL STOCK AND RESERVES

     In accordance with its by-laws, the Company is authorized to operate with
     up to R$1,000,000 in capital of which R$153,947 are subscribed and fully
     paid in. Capital stock as of September 30, 2002, is represented by
     4,550,833 common shares, with no par value, with the following equity

     c)   As a sponsor, the Company's monthly contributions are made at the same
          proportion of the participants of ESCELSOS Foundation, corresponding
          to the amount established in each plan, limited to 7% of the total
          payroll. For the first nine months of 2002, ESCELSA contributed
          R$1,844 (R$1,903 in the first nine months of 2001).

     d)   Based on the Article 84 of CVM Deliberation no. 371/2000, at
          December/2001 the Company calculated the present value of the
          actuarial obligations related with the unvested benefit. As a result,
          the balances as of September 30, 2002 can be shown as follows:

     Obligations related to post-retirement benefits.
       Current liabilities                                        2,420
       Long term liabilities                                     28,032


     e)   The actuarial calculations showed that the fair value of the net
          assets of the pension plan exceeds the present value of the vested and
          unvested actuarial obligations. However, company's management adopted
          a conservative position and decided do not record this surplus as a
          deduction of the unvested actuarial obligations.

19.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     As per CVM Instruction no. 235 of March 23, 1995, established a
     mechanism for the disclosure of the market value of financial instruments
     by way of "notes to the financial statements," regardless their recognition
     or not in the financial statements.

     The Company's business entails the distribution and sale of electric energy
     for customers within its concession area - the State of Espirito Santo -
     and therefore significant financial instruments are related to the
     following transactions:

     o    Balances of long-term accounts receivable and accounts payable are
          related to the extraordinary tariff recovery and therefore are not
          subject to adjustments to market value;
     o    Investments in short term mutual funds and/or fixed income investments
          are recorded at approximate market value as they are recorded with
          accrued interest on a pro-rata basis;
     o    Equity stakes in other companies are in most cases through shares that
          are not publicly traded;
     o    Loans due by the Company are mainly long-term and, in the most of
          cases, are, from specific funding sources.

     19.1 Exchange rate and interest rate risks

          The book value of the main financial instruments held by ESCELSA are:

          A portion of the loans and financing in local currency is comprised of
          financing from government entities ELETROBRAS and BNDES

                                       19





[ESCELSA LOGO]           QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          As the market interest rate (or opportunity cost of capital) is
          established by these governmental entities, taking into consideration
          the risk premium related with the electrical sector's activities and
          that in the absence of other financing sources or other market options
          and/or methodology to estimate the market value of such options, in
          light of the Company's business and specific circumstances of the
          sector, the market value for this portion comprised of domestic loans
          shall correspond to their book value, as shall other financial assets
          and liabilities.

          As mentioned in Note 13, foreign currency financing was obtained (in
          U.S. dollars), being the indebtedness and earnings significantly
          impacted by the risk of exchange rate variation of foreign currency.
          Such risk may cause the Company to incur losses due to unexpected
          foreign exchange fluctuations, which may increase liabilities
          denominated in foreign currency.

          Net exposure to the exchange variation of foreign currency risk is as
          follows:




                                                   BOOK VALUE                    FAIR VALUE

          Senior Notes                        1,678,538      1,225,817        721,771        833,556

                                          ==============  =============  =============  =============



          The method used to determine the fair value of the Senior Notes
          obligation was their average market price as per the security's
          trading activity at the end of each fiscal period (source: Report
          edited in the USA by Morgan Stanley Team Witter, showing the market
          price of transactions negotiated in New York.) and, for U.S. dollar
          assets, the market price of the contracts at the end of the fiscal
          period was utilized, which is equal to the book value.

          Additionally, the Company hedged part of its currency fluctuations
          exposure by using swap contracts. The operations' parameters and
          amounts are described above:




           Financial                Date                                  Parameters (rates %)

         ---------------  ------------  ------------  -----------  --------------  --------------------   ----------
                                                                                          
         Banco Pactual     03/28/02      01/14/03       19.381      100% of CDI    Dollar +4.02% per year   11,884



          On a consolidated basis, loans and obligations held by companies
          within the ESCELSA Group were made at rates and terms generally
          practiced in the domestic and international markets to fund
          investments in the electric energy sector in its concession areas as a
          public utility.

          ESCELSA and its subsidiaries MAGISTRA and ENERSUL maintain liabilities
          in foreign currency (US$). To reduce foreign exchange related risk,
          swap instruments are being used to hedge a portion of these
          obligations, as mentioned in Note 13. Indexes used in these
          instruments are 103% CDI (parent Company) and IGP-M plus interest
          rates of 11.70% to 12.01% per annum and CDI plus 0.95%- 2.33% per
          annum (subsidiaries).

          Considering the Real devaluation during the period, the hedging
          instruments generated a gain of R$18,146 for ESCELSA and R$ 43,601
          consolidated, recorded as monetary variation in the financial
          statements, as follows:




                                                                    AMOUNT

          For the remaining contracts, given the specific nature of these
          transactions and the inability to determine the market value for this
          type of financial instrument, Companies' management, taking into
          consideration the risk to the company, the strategy and debt
          management practices adopted, estimates that the market values of the
          instruments are equal or approximates to their book value.

     19.2 Credit Risk

          As to the credit risk, there is a possibility that the Company will
          incur losses resulting from its customers default. To mitigate against
          this risk, the Company has the right to interrupt the supply of
          electric energy in the event that a customer fails in paying bills
          within the time-periods defined by legislation and specific
          regulations. A provision for doubtful accounts is established in an
          amount deemed sufficient by management to cover potential accounts
          receivable risks.


20.  EXPLANATION ADDED FOR TRANSLATION INTO ENGLISH

     These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
     principles set forth by the Brazilian corporate law. Certain accounting
     practices followed by the Company and its subsidiaries that conform to
     generally accepted accounting principles in Brazil may not conform with
     generally accepted accounting principles in other countries.

ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Espirito Santo Centrais Eletricas S.A. - ESCELSA

Vitoria - ES

1.    We have performed a special review of the Quarterly Information (ITR) of
      Espirito Santo Centrais Eletricas S.A. - ESCELSA and subsidiaries (parent
      company and consolidated) for the quarter and the period of nine months
      ended September 30, 2002, prepared under the responsibility of the
      Company's management, in accordance with accounting practices established
      by the Brazilian Corporate Law, comprising the balance sheets, the related
      statements of income and the reports on performance.

2.    Our review was performed in accordance with standards established by the
      Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors - IBRACON, in conjunction with
      the Federal Accounting Council, and consisted principally of: (a)
      inquiries and discussions with the Company's management responsible for
      the accounting, financial and operational areas of the Company and its
      subsidiaries, as to the criteria adopted in preparing Quarterly
      Information; and (b) a review of the information and subsequent events
      that had or could have material effects on the financial position and
      results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries.

3.    Based on our special review, we are not aware of any material
      modifications that should be made to the Quarterly Information referred to
      in paragraph 1 in order for it to be in accordance with the accounting
      practices established by the Brazilian Corporate Law and the standards
      issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) specifically
      applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information.

4.    As mentioned in Notes 5 and 12 to the Quarterly Information, the Company
      has recorded, as of September 30, 2002, in current assets, accounts
      receivable in the amount of R$42,959 thousand (R$74,223 thousand
      consolidated) and, in current liabilities, accounts payable in the amount
      of R$16,606 thousand (R$28,261 thousand consolidated), relating to
      electric power sales and purchases operations conducted in the Electric
      Power Wholesale Market - MAE, based on preliminary information released by
      MAE and/or based on management estimates. These amounts are subject to
      modifications depending on the outcome of a current judicial process filed
      by energy market participants, with respect to market regulations in
      effect. The settlement of these amounts is expected for November 22, 2002
      and will depend on the financial capacity of energy market participants to
      settle their obligations.

5.    We have previously reviewed the balance sheets (parent company and
      consolidated) related to June 30, 2002, and issued our accountants' review
      report dated August 14, 2002. Our accountants' review report contained an
      emphasis paragraph related to accounts receivable and payable related to
      electric power sales and purchases operations conducted in the Electric
      Power Wholesale Market - MAE, in the period from September 1, 2000 to June
      30, 2002. These receivables and payables were recorded based on
      preliminary information released by MAE and/or based on management
      estimates and were pending of approval from MAE and subsequent settlement.
      The statements of income (parent company and consolidated) for the quarter
      and the period of nine months ended September 30, 2001, presented for
      comparative purposes, were reviewed by other independent auditors, who
      issued their accountants' review report thereon dated October 26, 2001
      containing emphasis paragraphs related to (a) tax credits generated by
      fiscal losses, negative basis of social contribution and other amounts
      that constitute temporary adjustments, which depend on generation of
      future taxable income to be compensated, as disclosed in Note 8, and (b)
      assets and liabilities relating to the sales and purchases of electric
      power in the Electric Power Wholesale Market (MAE), whose amounts were
      recorded based on management estimates.

6.    On December 21, 2001 Provisional Measure (Executive Order) no. 14 was
      issued, and converted into Federal Law no. 10.438 of April 26, 2002,
      providing, among other things, for the reestablishment of the
      financial-economic equilibrium of the electric power distribution
      companies, as guaranteed in the concession agreements. The detailed
      information and the effects of the rationing program on the financial
      position and results of operations are disclosed in Notes 5 and 7 to the
      quarterly information.

      o     Electric energy Sales in the first nine months of 2002 totaled
            4,661,858 MWh, 2.4% lower than the 4,777,614 MWh sold in the same
            period in 2001. This decrease is attributed mainly to lower
            residential consumption, which fell 12.2% due basically to the
            effects of greater conservation, which is now a part of consumer
            habits.

      o     On August 7, 2002, ANEEL (The Brazilian Electric Energy Regulatory
            Agency) disclosed its annual tariff increase for ESCELSA's
            customers, as per its concession agreement:

                  The total increase effective as of August 7, 2002 was 15.97%,
                  composed of the following:

                  14.27% is related to costs not managed by ESCELSA that are
                  passed through to customers, such as energy purchased from
                  FURNAS and ITAIPU, as well as transmission costs.

                  1.70% is related to costs managed by ESCELSA that are adjusted
                  to the IGP-M inflation index, net of the 0.51% discount
                  applied to account for the pass through of productivity gains
                  to clients (the "X" factor, which was established by ANEEL
                  last year upon ESCELSA's Periodic Tariff Revision).


      o     In an extraordinary meeting of ESCELSA's Board of Directors on
            October 10, 2002, the following members of management were elected:

                  Armando Fernandes Bernardo
                  Distribution Officer, accumulating the positions of CEO and
                  Engineering and Construction Officer on an interim basis.

                  Sergio Pereira Pires
                  Chief Financial Officer, accumulating the positions of
                  Administrative Officer and Investor Relations Officer.


                  The Board members also approved the nomination of Antonio
                  Eduardo Silva Oliva as Chief Executive Officer and Manuel
                  Fernando das Neves Bento as Engineering and Construction
                  Officer, both of whom will assume their respective duties
                  immediately following the processing of their visas for
                  employment in Brazil, as both are Portuguese nationals.

      o     In September 2002 the BNDES (Brazilian Economic Development Bank)
            released the second installment of the funding to offset the
            reduction in revenue that occurred during the Emergency Electric
            Energy Consumption Reduction Program, in the amount of R$105,463
            thousand.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The main indicators used by the energy sector to measure the quality of service
rendered showed the following performance:

    Equivalent Outage Duration per Customer - DEC measures the average number of
    hours that each customer remains without the supply of energy.
    For the 12-month period ended September 30, 2002, DEC was 14.73(*) hours,
    compared to 14.24(*) hours in the previous year, an increase of 3.4%(*).

    Equivalent Outage Frequency per Customer - FEC indicates the average number
    of interruptions in energy service per customer. For the period ended
    September 30, 2002, FEC was 11.34(*) compared to 11.87(*) for the same
    period the previous year, an improvement of 4.5%(*).

    Average Service Response Time - TMA is an indicator that measures the
    average time between a complaint of interruption in energy and the
    re-establishment. For the 12-month period ended September 30, 2002, TMA was
    109 (*) minutes unchanged from same period last year.(*).

ENERGY LOSSES

Energy losses increased from 10.02% in the twelve-month period ended September
30,2002 to 11,64% in the same period this year. This increasing is due to the
energy rationing. Since the end of the rationing (March, 2002) losses have been
decreasing.

[ESCELSA LOGO]           QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Gross operating revenues in the first nine months of 2002 totaled R$ 830,811
thousand, 19.9% higher compared to 2001. The revenue from the retail sector was
R$ 770,906, 16.3% higher compared to the same period in 2001.

The increase in the wholesale revenue in the first nine months of 2002 compared
to the same period last year was due to the short- term supply sales of excess
energy.

The increase in other revenues is due to the new breakdown in revenues as per
the new sector model, as well as to the growth in the utilization of the
distribution system by customers.

Net operating revenues in the first nine months of 2002 totaled R$589,632, 12.2%
higher than the same period in 2001.

[ESCELSA LOGO]           QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NET FINANCIAL INCOME (EXPENSE)

The net financial result in the first nine months of 2002 was negative R$
746,545, while in the same period last year was negative R$ 280,081. The
difference in the first nine months of this year is due mainly to the 67.9%
devaluation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar, which caused a
significant increase in financial expenses on U.S. dollar denominated debt.


CASH AND EQUIVALENTS

ESCELSA has funds deposited in banks or invested in financial instruments in the
amount of R$ 289,633 for the Company and R$ 295,202 on a consolidated basis as
