Key Terms

4 terms

ifrs financial

"The numbers reported herein are in US dollars, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards"

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of common accounting rules used by many companies worldwide to prepare financial statements, so numbers like revenue, profit and assets are measured in the same way across borders. For investors, IFRS matters because it makes it easier to compare the financial health and performance of different companies—like using the same ruler to measure different objects—reducing surprises and helping informed investment decisions.

adjusted ebitda financial

"IFRS Adjusted EBITDA of $1,429 million, down 18% from prior year"

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

free cash flow financial

"Free cash flow in 2Q26 improved by US$185 million year-over-year"

Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.

View in glossary

net leverage financial

"Net leverage ended the quarter at 3.1x"

Net leverage measures how many years it would take for a company to pay off its outstanding debt using its annual operating cash flow, after subtracting cash on hand from total debt. Think of it like a household’s mortgage balance minus savings divided by yearly income; a lower number means the company is in a safer position to handle debt, while a higher number signals greater financial risk and potential pressure on profits or growth.

“In 2Q26, JBS once again reported a record revenue, reflecting the strength of the Company's multi-geography and multi-protein platform. Compared to last year, profitability was pressured by a tough comparison base, as the poultry operations had posted record results in 2Q25. Compared to the first quarter, profitability already showed an improvement in the majority of our business units.

The quarter recorded a net loss of $102 million, while adjusted net income totaled $218 million, translating into adjusted EPS of $0.20. The main non-recurring items adjusted in net income were: (i) $172 million in premiums, interest, and costs associated with the tender offers for the bond and the CRA (Brazilian local debenture); (ii) antitrust settlements of $133 million; and (iii) the final calculation of the bargain purchase price gain on the acquisition of Mantiqueira Alimentos, totaling $81 million; among others.

Leverage ended 2Q26 at 3.1x, slightly above the Company's long-term target. We also joined the Russell 1000 and Russell 3000 indices, an important milestone that contributes to stock liquidity, expands our shareholder base, and enhances our global visibility. During the quarter, we returned value to our shareholders through a $1 billion dividend payment." said Gilberto Tomazoni — Global CEO.

JBS Beef North America reported record sales in the second quarter while cutout values remained at historically high levels, supported by resilient U.S. consumer demand. The increase in live cattle prices outpaced the change in cutout values, reflecting the low cattle availability. As a result, industry spreads remained pressured. Live cattle imports from Mexico remained restricted during the quarter, further constraining supply in the U.S. market, but are expected to resume gradually beginning on August 24^th. In this scenario, the Company announced the closure of two plants, one located in Souderton, Pennsylvania (processing), and the another in Memphis, Tennessee (case ready). Production will be absorbed by other US plants, therefore with minimal impact on sales. JBS also merged the Fed Beef, Regional Beef, and Case Ready business units into a single structure, Beef USA. These measures simplify operations, aiming at greater operational efficiency.

Pilgrim’s Pride saw firm chicken demand across all regions. In the U.S., Fresh volumes rose on stronger retail and foodservice demand. Profitability declined year-over-year due to lower commodity pricing, though margins improved sequentially on productivity gains, plant upgrades, and better live operations. Case Ready and Small Bird volumes grew via distribution with key customers. Prepared Foods delivered profitable growth, with both sales and margins rising. In Europe, retail volumes to key customers grew faster than the overall grocery channel, helping offset pressured pork margins from higher UK imports, added costs from the Middle East conflict, and softer foodservice traffic. In Mexico, volumes rose across fresh and prepared products. Chicken demand stayed robust despite a significant rise in overall protein supply. Across key markets, growth in branded and prepared offerings, along with ongoing investments, will further mitigate commodity market challenges and strengthen margins while reducing risk.

JBS USA Pork reported flat revenue compared to the prior year. Domestic demand for pork softened as inflation pressured the American consumer. According to the USDA, pork exports continued to stay above last year’s level and were up 4.7% Y/Y during January through May. The Company continues to invest in expanding its value-added and branded product portfolio. JBS USA Pork, the Company's most resilient business unit, maintained its profitability within its historical range.

JBS Australia net sales growth in 2Q26 was driven by higher prices and volumes. The beef segment delivered strong revenue growth, supported by higher prices in both domestic and export markets. Strong commercial dynamics, combined with continued operational efficiency gains, more than offset the 24% year-over-year increase in cattle costs in 2Q26. Pork profitability was also a highlight, driven by operational execution and higher productivity. The weaker U.S. dollar relative to the Australian dollar continued to weigh on the translation of results into U.S. dollars versus the prior-year period.

JBS Brazil also reported record sales for a second quarter. The revenue growth reflects higher prices and volumes in both the export and domestic markets. In the export market, strong revenue growth was driven by higher prices and volumes, mainly to fill the Chinese quota. Robust global demand and the Company's geographic diversification strategy also boosted exports. In the domestic market, higher prices and volumes for beef were driven by World Cup-related marketing initiatives and stronger commercial execution, particularly through partnerships with key customers. In relation to costs, the average live cattle price during the quarter was approximately R$353/@, an increase of 12% compared to 2Q25. Even with elevated cattle prices, JBS reported its highest EBITDA for a second quarter.

Seara reported an 18% sales growth compared to the same period of last year, with a strong adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.9% in 2Q26. In the export market, the Company maintained its sales growth driven by higher volumes of fresh poultry. Another highlight was the sales to the Middle East, despite a more challenging operating environment resulting from the conflict. Investments Seara has been making in the region supported volume growth, especially for value-added and branded products. In the Brazilian market, Seara continued to invest in its fundamentals, expanding its value-added portfolio, increasing processing capacity for fresh and prepared products, strengthening its brand, and maintaining solid commercial and operational execution. As a result, the Company delivered a strong performance, reinforcing the consistency of its strategy and operational discipline.

Free Cash Flow & Leverage
Free cash flow in 2Q26 improved by US$185 million year-over-year, reaching a positive US$130 million, compared to a cash consumption of US$55 million in 2Q25. The improvement was mainly driven by working capital, particularly (i) a US$600 million improvement in receivables, reflecting higher receivables discounting and larger advance payments from Chinese customers related to JBS Brazil's exports, and (ii) a US$390 million increase in payables, driven mainly by higher cattle prices and increased slaughter volumes, particularly in Brazil. These effects were partially offset by (i) a US$324 million decline in Adjusted EBITDA, (ii) a US$129 million increase in net cash interest expenses and (iii) a US$163 million increase in capex.

The average debt term reached 15.3 years, with an average cost of 5.7%. Net leverage ended the quarter at 3.1x, slightly above the company's long-term financial target. In August, JBS increased its revolving credit facility from US$3.5 billion to US$4.2 billion, while reducing the all-in cost. Considering this increase, JBS grew its total liquidity to US$7.7 billion.

Forward-Looking Statements
We make statements about future events that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Such statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our Management and information to which the Company currently has access. Statements about future events include information about our current intentions, beliefs or expectations, as well as those of the members of the Company's Board of Directors and Officers.

Forward-looking statements may include information on possible or presumed operating results, as well as statements that are preceded, followed or that include the words "believe,“ "may," "will," "continue," “expects,“ "predicts," "intends," "plans," "estimates," or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements and information are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions because they refer to future events, depending, therefore, on circumstances that may or may not occur. Future results and shareholder value creation may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond our ability to control or predict.

IFRS and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release is prepared under IFRS and also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not calculated in accordance with any generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should not be viewed as substitutes for IFRS metrics such as net income, operating cash flow, or other measures of operating performance or liquidity.

We present non-GAAP financial measures to provide additional information that we believe is useful and meaningful to investors. However, such measures do not have standardized definitions and may therefore not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should always be considered together with, and not as alternatives to, the financial results reported in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Additionally, all the numbers are unaudited in the condensed consolidated interim financial information, the consolidated US GAAP figure includes non-audited accounting GAAP adjustments in Seara and JBS Brazil, in addition to the Business Units that already report under US GAAP.
