AES Tietê had a strong financial performance in 2012. Power generation was 27% higher than the physical guarantee. Net revenue increased 12% to R$2.1 billion due to a contract readjustment and higher spot prices. EBITDA grew 5% to R$1.54 billion with a margin of 73%. Net income increased 7% to R$901 million. The company proposes dividends of R$182 million. Investments focused on modernizing power plants. Exposure to higher spot prices in 4Q12 pressured costs.
