For the fifth consecutive year, Hydro-Québec continued to grow. Surpassing its commitment, the company increased consolidated net income to $1,931 million, up 26.5% over 2002. The higher level of profitability is reflected in a sizable increase in return on equity, which rose to 13.2%. Revenue was down $1,576 million from 2002 as a result of the drop in electricity sales outside Québec. Hydro-Québec, in fact, reduced the volume of these sales in order to respond to the strong demand growth within the Québec market.

In addition, the rise of the Canadian dollar against its American counterpart, the net redemption of a portion of our long-term debt and the significant decline in interest rates contributed to a considerable reduction in financial expenses, down $324 million or 10.6%, compared with 2002. Shareholder dividends of $965 million were declared, bringing the total amount paid since 1998 to $3.9 billion.
