Morning everyone. Welcome to the results conference of the fourth quarter and the year of 2025 of Banco ABC Brasil.

I'm Ricardo Moura, and I'm the Director of Investor Relations, Proprietary M&A, and Strategy. We are going to start our presentation with Sérgio Lulia.

Later, we are going to have our traditional Q&A session. If you are watching this broadcast in English, please click in the interpretation button at the bottom right of your screen.

All the content, including the presentation, will be available at our RI website. Please download the content that is also on your screen.

To continue, I'll hand the floor to Sérgio. Thank you.

Thank you, Moura. We are going to show you the results of the fourth quarter of 2025 and the entire year of 2025.

The net income reached R$1 billion, a very meaningful number that puts ABC Brasil in a very selected group of Brazilian companies reaching this level. This is a result of a collective effort of many people who came to work with us during 30 years of history, dedication, discipline, efforts, and they made these results possible.

I would like to thank you all, specially the 1,300 employees we have today working everyday at the bank. The ROAE reached 15.2% during the year, and in the last quarter, it reached 16.3%.

It was a year in which the seasonality was a little bit bigger than we expected. We started with 14.8%, something like that, and it went up, and we delivered 16.2%.

It's the fourth sequential year in which the bank delivers an ROAE above 15%. We may have a higher number.

We will have, but this has been stable for more than four years. The financial margin reached R$2.5 billion, a growth of 6.8% in relation to the previous year.

The NIM ends the year in 4.3%. It's a number similar from 2024, but that also presented throughout the year, just like the ROAE, a recovered trend.

It started below in the quarter, below four, and it recovers quarter by quarter, last semester 4.7%, and the year margin, the average is 4.3%. About our portfolio, based on the coverage ratio, we have here 501% when we consider the provisions divided by all the past due over 90 days.

When we talk about the total provisions over stage three, 93%. A lot of discipline here, a year that we faced as a challenging year in relation to credit granting due to interest rates that were so high for such a long period, a economy that was a little bit no longer accelerating, and here are the results.

The portfolio finishes with R$54.7 billion and a growth of 3%, and that alone is a growth that is not exactly what we expected, but the year was focused on discipline in credit granting and also in the allocation of capital and prices, prices charged in our transactions. This number does not reflect the segments.

When I show you, this will be clear. The strategy will be clear.

If we check this slide, this number is clear. While the bank grows 3% in the expanded credit portfolio, middle is growing 15%, and this year is about the takeoff, the middle bank growth.

Now we fit the pieces. What does that mean?

Means that we reviewed our commercial strategy, we reviewed our credit strategy, we reviewed the product families. I have a perception that today we understand the clients better than we did in the past, and that allow us to uptake the growth, resume the growth in a very constant manner.

The corporate grows 3.4% aligned with the average growth of the portfolio, and this is the one that has largest volume. Large corporate due to the reduction of margins, there's a small drop, almost constant in relation to the previous year.

The sectorial part here is quite diverse. The most representative sector is the same, agribusiness 23%, almost constant.

The second sector, energy, a small drop in relation to what we had in the past, 11.7%. Services and commerce with an increase in relative participation.

Here we have a seasonality, the fourth quarter means a little bit it is a little bit stronger. Then we have financial, transport and logistics, civil constructions.

Our portfolio is quite diverse and pretty healthy. Here we have a graph that we have shown you in the last years, and it's a graph that it's a result of our consciousness effort.

We divide revenues in two blocks: one that we call high use of capital and the other one with low use of capital. The increase of participation in low use of capital, on one side, represents a higher presence of the bank in the clients with more products serving clients with more in relation to their needs, but on the other hand, for me and the share for us and the shareholders, it means more meaningful returns in relation to the capital used and less volatility in the cycles.

When you have a larger family of products, depending on the cycles, sometimes one are better, and another moment, the other one is better. In average, we had an ROAE that is less volatile.

The one with a lower use of capital, they have around 30% of that revenue with clients, and they grow, and they reach 2024 with 45%, and 2025, 46%, a little bit above. In practice, it means that almost half of the revenues coming from clients, they have no or little capital allocation.

Looking at the financial margin, in fact the net interest margin, we see the highlights of the quarter. The financial margin grows 14% when compared to the same quarter of the previous year, and 9.5% when compared to the third quarter of 2025.

Paying attention to what comprises it, revenues with clients, they are almost constant, and we have 393 versus 389, and we have the revenue with the market, it's almost the same. It had suffered a little bit, but it recovers in the last quarter.

The CDI capital also is almost the same. Here, those accumulate throughout the year.

There is an increase of the margin with clients from 1.431 to 1.495. You can see that they are a little bit less, the financial margin with the market, and they were compensated by the growth of revenues coming from the CDI-compensated capital.

NIM, as I have stated, we had 4.2%, 4.3% 2024, there was a drop in the first quarter of 2025 and an effort to recover gradually growing 0.3 percentage points in each quarter, reaching 4.7% in the last, and year compared to year, 4.3% versus 4.3%, a proper level that allow us to expected an ROAE above what we expected. Now, revenue with services, they had a very good year, 125.9, and in their compounds, they had a stability in all the guarantees.

With the guarantees issued, the best quarter only below the last quarter of 2024, that was a record of the investment bank. We are going to go through that.

The insurance and fee brokerage, they had a constant growth when we check quarter by quarter as we compare year by year. Year versus years, the guarantees issued, 158 to 167.

Investment bank, it was a good year in 2024, but below the performance of 2024. As I've mentioned, the insurance and fee brokerage, you can see a growth from 117 to 133, and it's more consolidated and important in our customer offer.

The quality of the credit portfolio, we can see here the provisions. The provisions reached 0.9%, it's a percentage above what we had, and this is due to the volume of credit recovers.

If we get the year, 0.7%, and if we look ahead, we will project this case of recoveries. The expected credit loss, around 2.4% of the portfolio as a whole, an improvement in the middle expected credit loss due to the improvement of the portfolios for the new crops we have.

All the past due over 90 days operations, they closed in 0.5%. It's a great improvement in relation to the beginning of the year when they were around 1%.

It's a ratio that is very low, and it improved not only in the middle sector, but also in the corporate sector, as I've mentioned, and that's the our highest volume. Stage two and three operations, this level is almost constant, representing 6% of our portfolio, stage three plus stage two.

Quarter by quarter, we can see certain stability. The provision rates, we can see the coverage ratio here due to the past due over 90 days.

We see say that the provisions, they don't have a relationship with the past due 90 over 90 days, and it relates to the default probability and the loss expected in case of default. The provisions are quite constant than the past due over 90 days.

Anyways, despite the metric you are paying attention to, the provision levels are quite comfortable. In relation to our expenses, I may say that we did a great job during 2025.

Expenses resulted in 5.6% in the middle of the review guidance. It's a number that is pretty close to the adjustment level in relation to the banking employees union.

It's, in average, what we were expecting according to our characteristics. Revenues, on the other side, they were a little bit frustrating.

They grew throughout the year 2.2%. With the market and the investment bank revenues and a certain difficulty in relation to rearrange the spreads throughout the year, that makes us entering 2026 with a better condition for revenue generation than we had in 2025.

The consequences of those two numbers is the efficiency level ratio of 39.2% according to the guidance that was around 39% and 40%. Our funding, here it's a very comfortable number throughout many years that we have been around.

It's a funding that is quite diverse in relation to the group of investors as well as inside each group. There is this scattering, there's no concentration.

The deadlines, they are all above the assets, there's no problem in the cash. Prices are quite competitive, and they allow us to compete with major banks in very similar conditions.

In relation to our capital, our Basel ratio is 16.3%, 13.8% Level 1, 2.4% Level 2 capital. Throughout the quarter, there was a small reduction that is explained mainly by the repurchase of Level 1 and Level 2 capital instruments as we had previewed to you in the last quarter results.

You can see that, not taking to account that, the generation of results the bank has is enough to distribute all the provisions to the shareholders, and we are in the middle of the recapitalization of the dividends that were distributed. That may cause an increase.

We can see it here, Level 1 a total of 16.3%, and after this occurred, Level 1 capital is around 12.4%, and a total around 16.3%, giving us a buffer to grow as we deem appropriate. Here, an overview, a summary of what we mentioned, all the history that happened throughout the year, the net profit that comes from 63, margin with clients, a lower contribution of margin with market, the CDI net revenue, and then the provisions.

There is a growth of 3.2% in the profit of 2025 when we compare the profit of 2024. Here we have our guidances.

The guidances that were revised for the bank, if we have the expenses growth, we can see that we have three now. The expenses growth, 4% to 7%, we had 5.6%.

The efficiency ratio, the updated guidance 39% to 40%, we closed in 39.2%. The revised guidances were all met.

Here, we show which are the guidances for 2026. Here, we have a guidance of the expanded credit portfolio growth, and that shows our trust that this segment will be growing in a more meaningful ratio.

The portfolio as a whole, 6% to 10%, the middle specifically, 12% to 18%. Obviously, this will impact NIM and ROAE throughout the years that are yet to come.

Expenses growth, they are quite thorough, 4% to 8%, and the efficiency ratio, 37.5% to 39.5%. Keep in mind that we had 39.2%, you can see that we have a trend to believe that our efficiency ratio will improve.

That's what we had to introduce. I'll hand the floor to Moura.

Moura, the floor is yours.

Thank you, Sérgio, for an overview of the results for the last quarter and the year of 2025. I thank everyone who's watching us.

Now, we count on your participation in our Q&A session. Here with us, we have Sérgio Borejo, CFO of ABC Brasil.

Welcome, Sérgio.

Hello, Ricardo. Hello, Sérgio.

Everyone who's watching us, thank you for the opportunity. It's a great pleasure to be here once again in our call of results.

Thank you, Borejo. To everyone who's here, feel comfortable to ask questions.

You just click and raise your hand, an icon that is in the lower part of your Zoom screen. We are available to answer questions.

Here, Brian Flores from Citi. Brian, thank you for your participation.

The floor is yours.

Thank you for the opportunity. Congratulations for the results.

I have two questions. The first one is that, clearly, as Lulia mentioned in the guidance, you have a risk appetite that is a little bit larger, bigger.

As he mentioned, there was some readjustment in the capital base, and middle market demands a little bit more of capital. I would like to ask you if we should expect any readjustment in the dividends, about the capitalization of the bank?

You've mentioned that, and also to speed up the credit portfolio. Then I'll ask my second question.

Thank you.

Thank you, Brian, for your participation in the conference and for the question. I don't know if saying that we have a risk appetite that is a little bit bigger is the way I would describe it.

In fact, yes, that is a perception that mainly due to the beginning of the cycle and the flow that we have seen for emerging countries in general, including Brazil, maybe the financial conditions will improve, and that will bring this willingness to companies, and that's an opportunity for you to expand your credit portfolio a little bit more. On the other hand, we should not forget that we come from a long cycle of a bad moment, and default, they were pretty well, but we have some companies with a higher leverage.

The guidance reflects I lost the audio. Oh, there it goes.

A growth that is more consistent, a growth that is more accelerated than we had before, but in the more traditional segment, we have large corporate, the verticals, agribusiness, and real estate, a specialization that allows us to find great opportunities. In relation to capital, for many years, since 2012, we have this policy that is combined with our controller in which as a minor shareholder, and we are committed to that, if necessary, the profits generated in Brazil will stay in the institution.

There are moments in which we are growing slower, and there's no reason for us to distribute the dividends, and the shareholders will have the resources available. In moments in which we see a growth that is a little bit larger, we propose the recapitalization of the dividends.

They have their parts, we have our part, and usually, the minor shareholders, they are present in their majority. You have small injections of capital throughout time, allowing the bank to grow without leaving the capital idle for longer periods.

What we are doing now, as I've mentioned, it will bring 50 base points of Basel ratio, and our Tier 1 capital will be above 14%, which is

pretty good.

Brian, do you have any other questions about that? Would you like to ask your second question?

Yeah. Quick question.

I would like to understand about the spreads, because as you've mentioned, there is a competition not only for banks similar to your size, but also incumbents. I would like to understand how will you deal with the spreads as the volume are also going up without jeopardizing the assets?

Brian, that's the challenge, you know? Considering our size, we say that we are a price taker than a price maker, the spreads, in general, they are established by major banks.

It is a pretty competitive market. It has always been.

Last year, we managed to have a recover of the spreads and a maintenance of a good portfolio quality, and that's a cost a little bit of our growth. We grew 3% excluding the exchange rate, otherwise it would be 5.5% almost 6%, but if we were too rigid with the spread, we could have grown more.

This year starts with a spread in our portfolio that is above what we started last year, and we start with a middle in a better rhythm. Then this compression of spreads in the middle didn't happen as we had in other segments.

Within the guidance that was provided with a growth from 6% to 10% in the portfolio as everything and 12% to 18% in the middle segment, well, I would say that today, our better our best expectation is to maintain as it is today.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, Brian. Next question now, Eric Ito from Bradesco.

Eric, thank you for your participation. The floor is yours.

Good morning, Lulia, Borejo, Ricardo. Congratulations.

I have two questions. First, a follow-up from what Brian asked.

You mentioned that you expect the maintenance of the spreads as they are today, but thinking about the future, 2026, your NIM, a better growth in the middle, but on the other hand, we have a reduction in Selic that will affect the CDI P&L. What could we expect of that?

Can we expect any increase in the fourth quarter, 4.4%, full year 4.3%? How things will be in 2026?

I'll start, and then I'll hand the floor to Ricardo, Borejo so he can calculate the NIM. That's the expectation, to have a relative growth in the middle portfolio that has a NIM above other segments.

This evolution, well, it happens step by step. It's slow.

Probably, the guidances that are delivered will result in an increase in the middle participation of 1 percentage point, I think. The NIM will depend on middle growth, that's what we mentioned, the mix of products.

There's always a new fact. Today, we have a family of products that is bigger than we had in the past.

This product dynamic matters a lot. I believe that, in the beginning of the year, we are going to see some exciting numbers.

It depends on the Selic ratio. Selic, we had a call that was more optimistic than the average of economists.

We reviewed that, and the perspective is 50 base points in all meetings from March on up to the end of the year and 11.5% at the end of the year. Those are the pieces?

What does it represent in relation to NIM? Ricardo, please.

I would say that if you get the speed in which we rearranged the NIM last year, we still have this vision of a NIM expansion. That's going to be more gradual and depending a little bit more, as Sérgio mentioned, depending on what we have inter-segment spread, and the competitive market dynamic influences a lot.

Second, the mix we have of segments inside portfolio as a whole, and middle grows a little bit more, then there would be a gradual expansion of the NIM and the mix of products. As we have products that have a better spread, this would be positive for the NIM.

Of course, we have a wind that is blowing against us, that is CDI P&L. You should not forget that once you have a Selic that is going down, you should have two factors that would affect the dynamics of the P&L.

First, you have a little bit less pressure in PDD, and the second is that it should be a little bit easier to grow our credit portfolio. The major issue is, all these factors, how do we see the NIM growth?

It should be positive, but in a way that is consistent, but gradual throughout the year. I don't know if I've answered your question.

Yes, it's clear. My second question is in relation to a follow-up thinking about the mix and everything and the PDD, a little bit more pressure.

This quarter, you've showed very positive indicators, I would like to understand a little bit more what you could share for the expectations of 2026, a larger growth for middle. How will be the asset quality?

Hey, Eric. We started the year pretty well as we've presented a health portfolio with a level of default that is pretty low, a very provisioned portfolio with good levels of coverage.

As I also mentioned, we know that this high interest level harms the economy and the companies. Considering that, we work within our budget with default that is our average number, 0.7% per year based on the expanded credit portfolio.

There's no expectations of something worse than that, but in order to have a consistent improvement of this 0.7%, that should be signs of monetary relaxing and something more precise than we have seen so far.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Eric. Next question, Olavo Arthuzo, UBS.

Thank you, Olavo, for your participation. The floor is yours.

Good afternoon, and thank you, Lulia, Borejo, Ricardo, for the moment. I have two questions, and they are pretty quick.

First one, in relation to the guided credit that we saw throughout 2025, the portfolio helped the system to grow, and I would like to understand how is your appetite in relation to this portfolio? Because last time we've talked about that, it was the second quarter call, and you've mentioned about a gradual increase in the appetite thinking about FGI.

I would like to hear from you a little bit, an update about that, how is your mindset in relation to this portfolio. Then if you can show us a North Star of what do you see in relation to the total penetration percentage of the portfolio for this year, it would help us.

My second question is in relation to generic provisions. Used to carry in your balance sheets R$190 million, if I'm not mistaken.

If you could give us a glimpse of how is your mindset in relation to all that, the use of such provisions, and if an increase of the pace of our economy, thinking about the second half of this year and the beginning of the following year, if we could start thinking about a reverse of the provision. Thank you.

Thank you, Olavo, for your questions. In relation to the government lines, you are right.

April, May, we started to intensify the use of such lines, especially in the middle segment, but also what we call the low corporate. This growth comes quite consistent.

Those are lines that are quite adequate for this profile of clients because, through that, clients have access to a debt profile that they wouldn't have in relation to bad lines and everything. I don't have the percentage here by heart.

We can check in case you guys know about it, we share. Not only FGI lines, we had a good performance in the second half especially in other lines that are managed by BNDES.

We exported many clients that were be affected by the situation. Now we have Renova Frota, a line from BNDES that has cost conditions that are quite competitive for carriers who want to renew their fleets.

We are, historically speaking, active, and in the second half, we resumed that, and they can for sure be a driver for growth throughout 2026. In relation to provisions, we have the generic, R$109 million, and this has a cyclic provision.

It seems to be, you can have the provisions, and you may use them throughout time. Seen today, I don't see us increasing the provisions, neither using them.

Probably, in the next quarters is to have the provisions in a fixed number.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Olavo. Thank you for your participation.

Next question, Antonio Ruette from Bank of America. The floor is yours.

Good afternoon, thank you for your time. Two questions here.

First one, I would like to explore the details of what changes the SMIs in the next expansions in relation to the previous ones. You've tried that in the past, do we change the segments?

What is the approach? The second, a follow-up about the provisions, but the highest higher provisions that were explained with higher interests.

I'm just thinking if we shouldn't have seen that in stage three due to severity of the macromarket, I don't know, if you could follow your macro expectations in which you are setting the prices, and we saw stage three, for instance, Tier 3 of the portfolio quite stable, but provisions, they increased a lot. If you could explore a little bit this rationale, it would be perfect.

Thank you.

Thank you, Antonio. Answering your questions in relation to middle, I would like to say that those are more execution adjustments understanding in the everyday business than a strategic repositioning.

The segment is the same. We started middle market, the second attempt, in 2019 with companies that have a revenue from R$30 to R$300,000, and this year, we went for R$500 million.

If you get the inflation from 2019 up to today, we have this numbers aligned to what other banks do. Internally, we subdivide that in two subsegments: one from R$30 to R$90 million, they are inside that income, and the other one from R$90 million to R$500 million, and that's where we have most of the bank exposure.

What evolved throughout this year is the credit line. We started in the corporate segment, large corporate, from something that was based on credit reports issued by analysts.

We entered the middle with a digital approach, and then we realized after 2020, 2022, those models are not as robust as we expected. Today, we have a hybrid model.

Both line is digital with processes that are quite scalable, but at the end of the process, there is a checkpoint in which an analyst will stop and check that will analyze and write a report. At the same time, this model allows you to leverage with low cost, but at the same time, you have a check from an analyst, someone who knows the segment, who has the experience to understand if that limit given by the automated process makes sense or not.

We changed a little bit the products. We haven't created products that we didn't have, but it's about how and when to offer the product.

We increase convenience products, the rotative, those in which the guarantees are formalized before, the limits are easier to be used by the clients. In the middle market client, this is an important characteristic.

We increase the offers that are guaranteed by governmental lines, as the question asked by Olavo. We have proper products.

We have a team. We had a team in other segments that had been around for many years.

Most of them were trained internally, others that came from the market, but the commercial culture, how to serve the client, how to relate to them, they were consolidated throughout the years. In the middle, when you have a new segment, you bring people from the market, and those market professionals, some adapt to us, others not, and there is a larger rotation.

Throughout time, this settles, and we have a team today that is quite fine-tuned with the way the bank thinks. There is a strong commercial approach, a good commercial relationship, those are adjustments, adjustments that were done in the commercial and product and credit lines that allow us to grow in the segment in a way that we can trust better than a couple of years ago.

In relation to Tier 2 and Tier 3, those were clients that were in such tiers, and we decided to increase the provision level due to the default probability, there were a little migration of clients from one tier to the other. There was no increase of provisions caused by macroeconomic readjustment, but a provision that was done based on specific number names.

Clear, thank you very much.

Thank you, Antonio. Now, next question, Yuri Fernandes from JP Morgan.

Yuri, the floor is yours.

Thank you, Ricardo. Lulia, Borejo, thank you.

Congratulations for another year. I would like to go back to capital, and I know all questions are approaching the same subject, but we all you have navigated the risk scenario here in Brazil in many crises.

The bank has always been pretty good. The scenario is not a crisis scenario, but it seems that you are very careful, the capitalization of dividends.

I believe your message was 11% in the past, and then the capitalization, well, it made sense that you are paying a little bit more, but you go more than 12.4%. The provision, Tier 3, an additional one, where do I want to get?

Do you see something we don't see? The scenario asks us to be so careful because, on the capital side as well as in the reserve side and even for the growth appetite, well, it doesn't depend only on you, but it depends on the quality of the price, the spread, and I can feel you pretty careful.

I'm going to ask the same questions in a different way just to check if you are more careful, and then I have a second question.

Yuri, thank you for your participation. I think that, in relation to capital, the fact that we proposed the board and they approved the recapitalization, I would read on the other way.

It's that we can see possibility of growing in a faster way, a more accelerated way, because if we were considering a more conservative scenario with a growth difficulty as we had last year, the recapitalization wouldn't be necessary. You would have an idle capital.

We are pretty capitalized, we have great ratios, and I wouldn't increase my level of capital because that gets in the way of the return. It's just half full or half empty cup.

Because, one side, a higher Selic ratio affected all the financial documents in companies, well, we are going to have another cycle, and as you've mentioned, we've been through many crises. Usually, when we have this openess, you can grow your portfolio, your credit portfolio.

Default is down, the capital the market helps, the capital market is pretty rich, I would see this increase on the pro-risk than counter-risk. In relation to the provision, well, our provision except the millions that were asked, the rest, you have a case-by-case assessment per sector, per client that will make us have this fluctuation of more provisions, less provisions.

If you get from one year to the other, it's pretty low, 0.1%, 0.2% of the expanded portfolio, there's no reason to have a different expectation.

Great. A good balances is never bad.

A follow-up in relation to your guidance from 4% to 8%. Checking the closed year, you were pretty well, great performance.

The expenses grew close to 6%, close to the inflation. Checking the market, we had quarter-over-quarter, there was a high numbers.

Was there something specific? Checking 2026, especially your guidance 4% to 8%, where Lulia is delivering will pop?

Of course, it's to have what you had in 2025, but is there any special line, less expenditures, is it a little bit more personal? Just to understand a little bit your growth.

Help me, please, Borejo.

Yeah. Good afternoon, Yuri.

Talking about the quarter, basically, we had seasonal expenditures mainly in training and technology. Those were the main expenses we had for this fourth quarter.

Nothing, as you've mentioned, that would get in the way of the year. The year is totally aligned with what we had imagined.

In relation to the next year, well, what is the idea? To keep on investing on where we had invested in the last years: training and technology.

Those are the two major expenses. I believe that the headcount is pretty similar, a little bit more, maybe, but nothing that will get in the way of our NII.

Basically, we have inflation, a little bit more, a little bit less. That would be the level of our expenses for 2026.

That's what we expect.

Thank you. One thing about the agribusiness, a pretty relevant portfolio.

The size of clients are pretty high, but some peers are having a hard time, and you have this new situation, a good segment, but now, as we have a certain specialty, how do you see this portfolio, Borejo, Lulia? Is it behaving well?

Major companies are well, and the problems are related to small farmers? Just double-checking the message for the agribusiness portfolio.

Okay. It is a portfolio, first of all, agribusiness is a broad name.

We have the industry, different industries. We have sugar and alcohol, we have animal protein, fertilizers, seeds.

We have companies for oil, juice. All that is in agribusiness, and also rural farmers, same thing.

You have different crops: grains, sugarcane, coffee, and so on. You also major cooperatives in the south of Brazil, major clients.

Agribusiness, as we see today, well, we have tough years. For what I understand, 2026 will be tough year once again, and mainly for the Center-West grain farmer.

In the South, since the climate problems, they haven't recovered so far. In those two segments, we have a lot of care, we have a small exposure, but we see an opportunity of growth considering that it's easier to grow and access clients when situations credit situation is worse and the incumbents are retracted than to penetrate in a market that is overoffered and low spreads and so on.

In all other areas of agribusiness, the thing is good, the business is good. Our carryover, there was a reduction in price, plants are pretty capitalized after a good crop, and the cooperatives in the South are pretty well.

They are professionals, they are diverse in their revenues with new industrial plants built in the last years. The animal protein chain is pretty fine, there was a consolidation of companies that are way stronger than we had in the past.

As a whole, we have to be selective. Agribusiness in Brazil is a very important segment, and it requires credit.

If you are a bank that funds the production sector, there's no way you won't dedicate yourself to the business, and it's a segment in which Brazil is quite competitive. Even with better years and worse years, in average, Brazil is pretty well.

You have to be careful, you have to choose your clients, but I believe this is a good year with this care of the grain farmer.

Pretty clear. Thank you very much, and good luck in 2026.

Thank you, Yuri. Now, our next question, Carlos Gomez-Lopez from HSBC.

The floor is yours.

Thank you. Two questions.

The first one, we haven't mentioned about the spreads and the capital market that, in the previous year, had an important event in relation to the portfolio. During the year, we said that things improved, and how are we this year?

What was the Master Bank effect for capturing and the corporate spreads you had? The second point, if we could recall us the effect of regulatory aspects in the capital, 4966, the operational directive, what could we expect?

Hello, Carlos. Thank you for your questions.

In relation to the spread, mainly in the major companies, spreads are low. That's why, when we look to 2025 compared to 2024, we reduce our portfolio in 0.9%, almost the same.

There was a small drop of 0.9 percentage points. The year starts in the same rhythm.

We have seen an increase in offers for major companies in the capital market. We are trying to participate.

That we are good in the debt capital markets. Seeing this large corporate segment today, this is a year that will be more active in the capital market of fixed revenue and less active in operations for bank balances.

The corporate and middle segments that added represent more than 80% of our portfolio, well, we have had this maintenance of spread or a recover throughout 2025. It was stable in September, November, and now we have stability.

Your second question about Banco Master, that's not relevant. We didn't feed the bank in I haven't seen I think that there are two or three that we saw, but it was a well, a bank that was not present in the corporate world.

In the cases it was involved, it was as partner then a bank that related to such companies. It was a low impact.

Your other questions, the impact of 4966, would you like to help me?

Sure. For 4966, we are ready.

We have already implemented it. The tax, you can see our balance sheets, the assets, the taxes, they were constant, and even if you get our equity, it reduced a little bit, I have the capacity to absorb all the fiscal losses that may arise when we had these changes, and nothing changed to the bank.

I believe we are working with that already, there's no meaningful effect, Carlos, in our balance sheets in relation to that.

Thank you.

Thank you, Carlos. Now we close our Q&A session.
