For additional assumptions see the Appendix to this presentation. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in our forward-looking statements due to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Important factors that could affect actual results are discussed in AES’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including but not limited to the risks discussed under Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as well as our other SEC filings.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Earnings Per Share

($ Per Share)

(1) Adjusted earnings per share (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding gains or losses associated with (a) mark to market amounts related to FAS 133 derivative transactions, (b) foreign currency transaction impacts on the net monetary position related to Brazil, Venezuela, and Argentina, (c) significant asset gains or losses due to disposition transactions and impairments, and (d) costs related to early retirement of recourse debt. AES believes that adjusted earnings per share better reflects the underlying business performance of the Company, and is considered in the Company’s internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in this determination include the variability associated with mark-to-market gains or losses related to certain derivative transactions, currency transaction gains or losses, periodic strategic decisions to dispose of certain assets which may influence results in a given period, and the early retirement of corporate debt.

Change Segment HighlightsThird Quarter

• Revenues increased primarily from favorable foreign exchange rates as well as higher tariff rates in Latin America and North America, and increased demand in Latin America.

• Gross margin increase driven by higher volumes and favorable foreign exchange in Latin America. Gross margin as a percent of sales increased due to favorable fixed costs adjustments at Eletropaulo and Sonel.

• IBT&MI decreased largely due to the loss on sale of investments related to financial restructuring of Brasiliana.

Change Segment HighlightsThird Quarter

(1) New projects include Buffalo Gap I in the U.S. and consolidation of Itabo in the Dominican Republic.

• Higher revenue was the result of the consolidation of Itabo in the Dominican Republic, higher dispatch in Pakistan, and higher volume at Tiete.

• Gross margin was flat as favorable volume was offset by higher maintenance costs in North America and Latin America. The decline in gross margin as a percent of sales was driven by higher fuels costs, and higher maintenance in North America and at Gener in Chile.

• IBT&MI decreased due to higher interest rates at Tiete, Southland’s legal contingency related to User Utility Tax and liquidated damages at Cartagena.

• Revenues increased as a result of better prices in Latin America and North America, offset partially by lower volume in North America due to outages.

• Gross margin and gross margin as a percent of sales decreased mostly due to lost volume and higher maintenance and fuel costs in North America.

• IBT&MI decreased as a result of the decline in gross margin.

Assumptions

Forecasted financial information is based on certain material assumptions. Such assumptions include, but are not limited to: (a) no unforeseen external events such as wars, depressions, or economic or political disruptions occur; (b) businesses continue to operate in a manner consistent with or better than prior operating performance, including achievement of planned productivity improvements including benefits of global sourcing, and in accordance with the provisions of their relevant contracts or concessions; (c) new business opportunities are available to AES in sufficient quantity so that AES can capture its historical market share or increase its share; (d) no material disruptions or discontinuities occur in GDP, foreign exchange rates, inflation or interest rates during the forecast period; (e) negative factors do not combine to create highly negative low-probability business situations; and (f) material business-specific risks as described in the Company’s SEC filings do not occur. In addition, benefits from global sourcing include avoided costs, reduction in capital project costs versus budgetary estimates, and projected savings based on assumed spend volume which may or may not actually be achieved. Also, improvement in certain KPIs such as equivalent forced outage rate and commercial availability may not improve financial performance at all facilities based on commercial terms and conditions. These benefits will not be fully reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial results.

The cash held at qualifying holding companies (QHCs) represents cash sent to subsidiaries of the Company domiciled outside of the U.S. Such subsidiaries had no contractual restrictions on their ability to send cash to AES, the Parent Company. Cash at those subsidiaries was used for investment and related activities outside of the U.S. These investments included equity investments and loans to other foreign subsidiaries as well as development and general costs and expenses incurred outside the U.S. Since the cash held by these QHCsis available to the Parent, AES uses the combined measure of subsidiary distributions to Parent and QHCs as a useful measure of cash available to the Parent to meet its international liquidity needs. AES believes that unconsolidated parent company liquidity is important to the liquidity position of AES as a parent company because of the non-recourse nature of most of AES’s indebtedness.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

• Adjusted earnings per share – Defined as diluted earnings per share from continuing operations excluding gains or losses associated with (a) mark-to-market amounts related to FAS 133 derivative transactions, (b) foreign currency transaction impacts on the net monetary position related to Brazil, Venezuela, and Argentina, (c) significant asset gains or losses due to disposition transactions and impairments, and (d) early retirement of recourse debt. AES believes that adjusted earnings per share better reflects the underlying business performance of the Company, and is considered in the Company’s internal evaluation of financial performance. Factors in this determination include the variability associated with mark-to-market gains or losses related to certain derivative transactions, currency gains and losses, periodic strategic decisions to dispose of certain assets which may influence results in a given period, and the early retirement of corporate debt.

• Free cash flow – Net cash flow from operating activities less maintenance capital expenditures. Maintenance capital expenditures reflect property additions less growth capital expenditures.

• Liquidity – Cash at the parent company plus availability under corporate revolver plus cash at qualifying holding companies (QHCs).

• Return on invested capital (ROIC) – Net operating profit after tax (NOPAT) divided by average capital. NOPAT is defined as income before tax and minority expense plus interest expense less income taxes less tax benefit on interest expense at effective tax rate. Average capital is defined as the average of beginning and ending total debt plus minority interest plus stockholders’ equity less debt service reserves and other deposits.

• Subsidiary distributions – Cash distributions (primarily dividends and interest income) from subsidiary companies to the parent company and qualified holding companies. These cash flows are the source of cash flow to the parent to meet corporate interest, overhead, cash taxes, and discretionary uses such as recourse debt reductions and corporate investments.

Note: Prior period amounts have been adjusted to exclude subsidiaries classified as discontinued operations in 2Q06. 3Q06 amounts include the non-cash impactsof the Brazil holding company restructuring. Although the non-GAAP reconciliation presentation of ROIC has changed as of this quarter, the ROIC calculation has not changed.(1) Income taxes are calculated by multiplying the sum of IBT&MI and interest expense by the effective tax rate for the period, thereby excluding the tax benefit on interest expense.(2) Net operating profit after tax, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as IBT&MI plus interest expense less income taxes (excluding the tax benefit on interest expense).(3) Return on invested capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated over a rolling 12 month period and is defined as NOPAT divided by average capital.(4) The effective tax rate is calculated by dividing income tax expense by IBT&MI.(5) Total capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as total debt plus minority interest plus stockholders’ equity less debt service reserves and other deposits.(6) Average capital is defined as the average of beginning and ending total capital over a 12 month period.
