Key Financial Metrics
The filing focuses on a specific capital distribution event rather than comprehensive operational financials. Key figures include:
- Interest on Capital (IoC) Gross Amount: R$600,000,000.00
- Interest on Capital (IoC) Net Amount: R$495,000,000.00 (after 17.5% withholding tax)

Material Changes and Corporate Actions
The primary material change is the declaration of Interest on Capital (IoC) based on the balance sheet as of April 30, 2026. The Fiscal Council unanimously approved the proposal to distribute these funds to shareholders. The net amount of this IoC will be allocated toward the mandatory minimum dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Payment Timeline: The IoC credit will be made individually to shareholders based on their position as of May 27, 2026. Shares will trade "ex-IoC" after this date. The final payment of proceeds is scheduled for April 30, 2027, with the exact date to be set by Management.
Contingencies and Risks:
- Tax Variability: The net amount assumes a standard tax rate of 17.5%, which may vary due to international treaties, tax immunities, exemptions, or privileged tax regimes.
- Share Count Fluctuation: The value per share is calculated based on the April 30, 2026, shareholding position. Due to an active Share Buyback Program, the final value per share may change based on the verified shareholding position on May 27, 2026.
- Dividend Allocation: The net IoC is subject to the Ordinary General Meeting in 2027 for final allocation to the mandatory minimum dividend.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final share count on May 27, 2026, to confirm the exact per-share payout given the active buyback program.
- Confirm the applicable withholding tax rate for specific shareholder jurisdictions, as the 17.5% rate is an estimate.
- Monitor the Ordinary General Meeting in 2027 for the formal approval of the mandatory minimum dividend allocation.
- Check for the specific payment date announcement by Management prior to April 30, 2027.
