Companhia Paranaense de Energia (Copel) reports updated bylaws approved at its 212th Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. The bylaws set the corporate purpose around researching, producing, transporting, distributing and trading energy, and related infrastructure and telecommunications activities, in Brazil and abroad. Share capital is described as R$12,831,618,938.25, divided into 2,982,810,590 common book-entry shares and 1 special class preferred share held by the State of Paraná.
The new text details governance rules, including a Board of Directors with 7–9 members serving two-year unified terms, a separate Executive Board, and statutory committees for audit, investment and innovation, sustainable development and people. Voting rights are capped so no shareholder or group may exercise more than 10% of voting capital, and shareholder agreements that exceed this limit are prohibited. The State of Paraná’s special preferred share grants veto power over specified matters, such as changes to the corporate name, headquarters location, voting caps, and minimum investment levels for the distribution subsidiary.
The bylaws also define dividend and interest-on-equity distribution of at least 25% of adjusted net income, conditions for capital increases up to 4,000,000,000 shares, rules for related-party approvals, and use of indemnity, insurance and legal defense for managers. They incorporate Novo Mercado requirements, including public tender offers in change-of-control situations and mandatory offers at premium prices if a shareholder or group surpasses 25% or 50% of voting capital, and adopt mandatory arbitration at the Market Arbitration Chamber for corporate disputes.

The per-share amount may be adjusted depending on any exercise of withdrawal rights by preferred shareholders who disagreed with the Novo Mercado migration.
Companhia Paranaense de Energia (Copel) reported mixed Q3 2025 results. Recurring EBITDA rose 7.8% to R$ 1,337.4 million, supported by an 18.7% increase in recurring net operating revenue to R$ 6,810.5 million, with solid contributions from generation, transmission and distribution.
However, reported net income fell 50.6% to R$ 364.2 million, mainly due to a much weaker financial result, as financial expenses grew with higher debt and CDI rates, and lower equity income from affiliates. Recurring net income declined 36.5% to R$ 374.8 million.
Total debt reached R$ 21,091.7 million and net debt R$ 16,560.8 million, pushing leverage to 3.0x, influenced by the acquisition of 70% of the Baixo Iguaçu hydropower plant and a R$ 981.4 million investment program, mostly in the distribution grid. Copel also advanced its migration to B3’s Novo Mercado, completed key divestments, and maintained 100% renewable generation with ongoing ESG and safety improvements.
Companhia Paranaense de Energia – Copel is moving to B3’s Novo Mercado by converting all existing preferred PNA shares into one new common share and one new class C preferred share (PNC) per PNA, with PNC being compulsorily redeemable. Holders of PNA who dissented, abstained or did not attend the preferred shareholders’ meeting may exercise a withdrawal right between 19.11.2025 and 18.12.2025, receiving reimbursement based on book value of R$ 8.6467556201 per share. The PN conversion and the automatic redemption of PNC are scheduled for 19.12.2025, with PNA last trading that day and Copel’s common shares starting to trade on the Novo Mercado on 22.12.2025. Each PNC share will be redeemed for R$ 0.7749, funded from profits and reserves, and Brazilian and non‑resident shareholders are subject to applicable income tax rules on any capital gain.
Companhia Paranaense de Energia – Copel reports that a special meeting of preferred shareholders approved the ratification of the mandatory conversion of all preferred shares into one new common share and one new class “C” preferred share, which will be compulsorily redeemable.

The agreement for Copel’s participation in Novo Mercado was signed with B3 on November 5, 2025, and the effective migration is conditioned on completing the preferred share conversion and redeeming all class “C” preferred shares. Copel states it will later provide details on the withdrawal rights for dissenting preferred shareholders and the expected date when its shares will begin trading on Novo Mercado.
