This Form 6-K filing by TELEFONICA BRASIL S.A. reports on the minutes of the 525th Meeting of the Board of Directors held on May 15, 2026. The filing covers corporate governance actions taken during the month of May 2026, specifically regarding capital distribution.

- 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)

- Reference Balance Sheet Date: April 30, 2026
The filing text does not provide clear values for total revenue, net profit, operating cash flow, margins, debt levels, or liquidity ratios for the period.
Material Changes
The primary material change reported is the Board's unanimous approval to declare Interest on Capital (IoC). This distribution is based on the April 30, 2026 balance sheet. The filing notes that the per-share value is subject to change due to the Company's active Share Buyback Program, which may alter the share count by the record date.
Guidance, Outlook, and Management Commentary
Dividend Policy and Allocation: The net amount of the IoC (R$495 million) will be allocated to the mandatory minimum dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. This allocation is subject to ratification by the Ordinary General Meeting to be held in 2027.
Payment Schedule: Payment of these proceeds is scheduled for April 30, 2027, with Management responsible for setting the exact payment date.
Record Date: The IoC credit will be applied to shareholders based on their position as of the end of May 27, 2026. Shares will trade "ex-IoC" after this date.
The filing does not contain specific forward-looking guidance on revenue growth, market share, or operational risks beyond the standard tax rate variability note.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final share count on the record date (May 27, 2026) to confirm the exact per-share payout, as the current figure is subject to the Share Buyback Program.
- Confirm the final tax rate applied, as the 17.5% rate may vary based on international treaties or specific shareholder tax regimes.
- Monitor the Ordinary General Meeting in 2027 for the formal ratification of the dividend allocation.
- Check for the specific payment date announcement by Management prior to April 30, 2027.
