Rhea-AI Filing Summary
AXIA Energia S.A., formerly Eletrobras, has completed a mandatory share and ADS exchange tied to its migration to the Novo Mercado listing segment of B3. All outstanding Class B1 preferred shares were converted into common shares at a fixed ratio of 1.1 common shares for each Class B1 preferred share, and Class B1 preferred ADSs were similarly exchanged into common ADSs at 1.1 common ADSs for each preferred ADS.
After the exchange, the newly issued common ADSs began trading on the NYSE under the existing ticker "AXIA" on June 10, 2026, with each common ADS representing one common share. The company’s common shares now trade on B3’s Novo Mercado under the ticker "AXIA3." AXIA Energia intends to terminate its reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act for the Class B1 preferred ADSs.

Insights
AXIA unifies its equity structure around common shares and common ADSs.
The company completed a mandatory exchange that converts all Class B1 preferred shares and preferred ADSs into common equity at a 1.1-for-1 ratio. This simplifies the capital structure and aligns all listed instruments with a single common share class.
Migration of the common shares to B3’s Novo Mercado and continued NYSE trading of common ADSs under "AXIA" may improve governance perception and liquidity, but the filing does not quantify these effects. Terminating reporting duties for the discontinued Class B1 preferred ADSs is an administrative step following their conversion.
