interest on equity financial

"R$ 1.568705805 will be distributed as interest on equity"

A payment a company makes to its shareholders that compensates them for the capital they provided, similar to how a lender receives interest on a loan. In some accounting or tax systems this payment is treated like interest rather than a regular dividend, which can change a company’s reported profit, cash flow and the taxable income of investors; that treatment affects shareholder returns and valuation.

American Depositary Receipts financial

"Holders of Vale’s American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) traded on the New York Stock Exchange"

A certificate traded on U.S. markets that represents ownership of shares in a foreign company, letting U.S. investors buy and sell that company as if it were listed domestically. Think of it as a local voucher for a foreign product: it makes price quotes in dollars, trades on familiar exchanges, and brings differences in liquidity, fees and legal protections that can affect returns and risk compared with buying the underlying foreign shares directly.

treasury shares financial

"potential increase in the number of treasury shares4"

Treasury shares are a company’s own stock that it has repurchased and keeps on its books instead of canceling or leaving in the hands of outside investors. Think of them like coupons a business puts back in a drawer: they don’t vote or receive dividends while held, but they can be reissued later for employee pay or fundraising. For investors this matters because buybacks change the number of shares that count toward earnings and ownership, can boost per‑share metrics, and use corporate cash that might otherwise go to growth or dividends.

share buyback program financial

"because of the ongoing share buyback program and, consequently, the potential increase"

A share buyback program is when a company uses its cash to repurchase its own outstanding shares from the market, reducing the number of shares available to investors. That matters because it can raise the value of remaining shares and signal management's confidence in the business—similar to a bakery buying back unsold loafs to make each remaining loaf represent a larger share of its oven’s output—though buybacks can also affect cash available for other uses.

"reflecting the minimum remuneration established under Vale’s Shareholder Remuneration Policy"
