and report on review
Report on review of individual parent
company and consolidated interim
financial statements
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Telefônica Brasil S.A.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying interim balance sheet of Telefônica Brasil S.A. ("Company") as at September 30, 2025 and the related statements of income, other comprehensive income, for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended, and the statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, as well as the accompanying consolidated interim balance sheet of Telefônica Brasil S.A. and its subsidiaries ("Consolidated") as at September 30, 2025 and the related consolidated statements of income other comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended, and the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, and notes, comprising material accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these individual parent company and consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the accounting standard CPC 21 - "Interim Financial Reporting", of the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC), and International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 - "Interim Financial Reporting", of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim financial statements based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Reviews of Interim Financial Information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual parent company and consolidated interim financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Telefônica Brasil S.A. and of the Telefônica Brasil S.A. and its subsidiaries as at September 30, 2025, and the individual parent company financial performance for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended and its cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, as well as the consolidated financial performance for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended and the consolidated cash flows for the nine-month period then ended, in accordance with CPC 21 and IAS 34.
Other matters - Statements of value added
The interim financial statements referred to above include the individual parent company and consolidated statements of value added for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025. These statements are the responsibility of the Company's management and are presented as supplementary information under IAS 34. These statements have been subjected to review procedures performed together with the review of the interim financial statements for the purpose concluding whether they are reconciled with the interim financial statements and accounting records, as applicable, and if their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in the accounting standard CPC 09 - "Statement of Value Added". Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these statements of value added have not been properly prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria established in this accounting standard, and that they are consistent with the individual parent company and consolidated interim financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO THE INDIVIDUAL AND CONSOLIDATED QUARTERLY INFORMATION
1. OPERATIONS
1.a. Background information

(the “Company“ or “Telefônica Brasil“) is a publicly-held corporation whose main corporate purpose is the provision of telecommunications services; the development of activities necessary or complementary to the execution of such services in accordance with the concessions, authorizations and permissions granted; rendering value-added services; offering integrated solutions, management and provision of services related to: (i) data centers, including hosting and co-location; (ii) storage, processing and management of data, information, texts, images, videos, applications and information systems and similar; (iii) information technology; (iv) information and communication security; and (v) electronic security systems; licensing and sublicensing of software of any nature, among other activities.
The Company's principal offices are located at 1376, Engenheiro Luis Carlos Berrini Avenue, in the city and State of São Paulo, Brazil. It is a member of the Telefónica Group (“Group“), based in Spain which operates in several countries in Europe and Latin America.
Telefónica S.A. (“Telefónica“), the Group holding company, held a total direct and indirect interest in the Company of 77.13% on September 30, 2025 (76.30% on December 31, 2024) (Note 23.a).
The Company is registered with the Brazilian Securities Commission (“CVM“) and its shares are traded on the B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa e Balcão ("B3"). It is also registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC“) and its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs“), backed by its common shares, are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE“).
1.b. Operations
The Company renders the following services: (i) Fixed Switched Telephony Service (“STFC“); (ii) Multimedia Communication Service (“SCM“, data communication, including broadband internet); (iii) Personal Mobile Service (“SMP“); and (iv) Conditioned Access Service (“SEAC“ – Pay TV); (v) Private Limited Service (“SLP“) and (vi) Global Mobile Satellite Service (“SMGS”), throughout Brazil, through authorizations, in addition to other activities.
Service authorizations are granted by Brazil's Telecommunications Regulatory Agency (“ANATEL“), the agency responsible for the regulation of the Brazilian telecommunications sector under the terms of Law No. 9472 of July 16, 1997 – General Telecommunications Law (“Lei Geral das Telecomunicações“ – LGT).
Personal Mobile Service - SMP
Before Law no. 13.879 / 2019 came into effect, authorizations for the use of radio frequencies were commonly granted for 15 years and could be extended only once, for the same term. Following the normative changes to the Law, successive extensions of authorization grants were allowed, though the current terms were only clarified by Decree no. 10.402/2020 which detailed the requirements related to the new successive extension regime; the current authorizations are also covered by the new regime.
The Decree defined ANATEL's parameters for evaluating the scope of extension requests, such as ensuring the efficient use of radio frequencies, competitive aspects, meeting the public interest and fulfilling obligations already assumed with ANATEL.
According to the interpretation of the Federal Audit Court (“TCU”), requests for extension are assessed through a new spectrum bidding process; ANATEL can only approve the extension request if the provider proves compliance with the conditions set forth in the Decree.

| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
For radio frequency usage authorizations acquired prior to the 5G auction held in 2021, every two years, after the first extension, the Company must pay a fee equivalent to 2% of the revenue earned through the provision of the SMP in the year prior to the payment, net of applicable taxes and social contributions (Note 22), and, for certain items, in the 15th year the Company must pay the equivalent of 1% of its revenue in the previous year. The calculation will consider the net revenue resulting from the application of the Basic and Alternative Service Plans. For authorizations issued for the 700MHz, 2100MHz, 2500MHz sub-bands and part of the 900/1800MHz, the calculation of the fee also applies to the remuneration for network use (interconnection).
In July 2018, ANATEL published Resolution No. 695 with a new regulation for a public spectrum pricing. This Resolution established new criteria for the costs of extending licenses. The formula takes into account factors such as the authorization term, revenue earned in the region, and the spectrum used by the provider. In addition, part of the payment may be converted into investment commitments. However, the calculation methodology contained in the Resolution for specific cases of authorization extensions depends on ANATEL's assessment. ANATEL has recently adopted different calculation methods for valuing authorization extensions. ANATEL submitted for public consultation, in November 2023, the revision of the Spectrum Usage Regulation (“RUE”), approved by Resolution No. 671, of November 3, 2016. The draft submitted by ANATEL revokes Resolution No. 695/2018 and directly consolidates in the RUE the rules associated with the valuation of authorizations for the use of the radio frequency spectrum, introducing the discounted cash flow method at net present value (“VPL”).
The information regarding the authorizations of each sub-band held by the Company for use in the SMP is the same as in Note 1.b. Operations, disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, except for the extension of the 2,100 MHz authorizations, are described below.
Extension of 2,100 MHz Authorizations
In April 2023, ANATEL agreed to extend the Company's current authorizations for the use of 2,100 MHz radio frequencies until April 2038 and submitted its decision to the TCU for review.
Since these were the first requests for extensions provided for in the contracts and bidding processes that originally granted these authorizations, the TCU's technical division did not identify evidence of irrational or inappropriate use of these bands by the Company that would justify denying the extensions. However, they highlighted the need to adapt Article 31 of Resolution No. 757/2022 to align with the proposed maximum validity periods.
On February 3, 2025, Resolution No. 757/2022 was revoked by Resolution No. 773/2025, which approved the new Regulation for Conditions of Use of Radio Frequencies.
On February 5, 2025, the TCU approved the extension of the 2,100 MHz authorizations, as originally proposed by ANATEL. This approval was formalized through Ruling No. 224/2025 – TCU – Plenary.
Switched Fixed Telephone Service (STFC)
The STFC concession model, adopted in 1998 upon signing of contracts for the privatization of the telecommunications sector, created a new business model for telecommunications services in Brazil. Over 20 years ago concessionaires were enabled by the expansion and universalization of fixed-line telephone service, which, before privatization, was expensive, elitist and left consumers waiting in long queues, lasting months or years.
On October 4, 2019, Law 13,879/2019 (resulting from PLC 79/2016) was published, introducing changes to the telecommunications regulatory framework, by allowing fixed-line telephone concessionaires to migrate from a concession regime to an authorization regime subject to lower regulatory burdens, including those associated with the continuity and universalization of STFC in the concession area, as well as possible restrictions on the assets associated with its provision.

On November 27, 2024, the proposal for the Terms and Conditions of the Self-Composition Agreement for Adaptation of the STFC Concession Contracts (“Agreement”) to an authorization instrument was approved by the TCU Plenary, and the Agreement was signed on December 16, 2024. The Terms include, among others: (i) investments by the Company, in the manner, conditions and terms established in this Agreement, in exchange for the adaptation; (ii) maintenance of the STFC service in locations lacking adequate competition within the service area of the STFC Concession contracts that will be terminated, until December 31, 2028; (iii) termination of administrative and judicial proceedings directly related to the STFC concession (Note 19); and (iv) withdrawal by the Company of the arbitration proceeding on the Concession.
The execution of the projects related to items (i) and (ii) totals a NPV of R$4.5 billion. The investments will be made in the manner established in the Agreement.
On April 11, 2025, the Company signed the Single Authorization Term with ANATEL. Concluding the final stage for the adaptation of the STFC Concession regime and thereby, transferring the Company to the private STFC Authorization regime.
Risks Relating to the Brazilian Telecommunications Industry and the Company
The Company's business is subject to extensive regulation, including regulatory changes that may occur during the terms of the agreements and the Company's authorizations to provide telecommunication services in Brazil. ANATEL, oversees, among other matters: industry policies and regulations; licensing (including licensing of spectrum and bidding processes); fees and tariffs; competition, incentives and competitive aspects (including the Company's ability to grow by acquiring other telecommunications businesses); service, technical and quality standards; consumer rights; penalties and other sanctions related to interconnection and agreements.
The Brazilian telecommunications regulatory framework is continuously evolving. The interpretation and enforcement of regulations, the assessment of compliance with regulations and the flexibility of regulatory authorities can be subjective. The Company operates under authorizations from the Brazilian government. However, because of the changing nature of the Brazilian regulatory framework, the Company cannot guarantee that ANATEL will not adversely modify the terms of the Company's authorizations and/or licenses. Accordingly, the Company's operating authorizations and licenses, must meet specific requirements and maintain minimum quality, coverage and service standards. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in the imposition of fines, penalties and/or other regulatory responses, including the termination of the Company's operating authorizations. Any partial or total termination of any of the Company's operating authorizations or licenses or the Company's would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, revenues, results of operations and prospects.
In recent years, ANATEL has been reviewing and introducing regulatory changes, especially with regard to asymmetric competition measures and interconnection fees charged between local telecommunications service providers. Asymmetric competition measures may include regulations aimed at rebalancing markets where one or more participants hold significantly different market power over other competitors.
Under ANATEL's regulatory agenda for 2023-2024, the revision of the General Competition Targets Plan (“PGMC”), approved by the Resolution no. 600, of November 8, 2012 and updated by Resolution no. 694, of July 17, 2018, which concentrates, in a single normative instrument, a set of specific measures aims at promoting competition and establishes the milestones for future reassessments of the performance of sectoral competition. This review, which takes place every four years and began with the publication of public consultation no. 64, of November 6, 2023, is focused on reassessment of significant markets in the sector, asymmetric regulatory measures and holders of Significant Market (“PMS”), previously established under the regulation itself.
After approval by ANATEL's Board of Directors, the new PGMC was published by Resolution No. 783, of September 3, 2025, meeting the deadline set out in ANATEL's regulatory agenda for the 2025-2026 biennium (discussed in Public Consultation No. 46, of September 11, 2024 and approved by ANATEL Internal Resolution No. 399/2024, of December 30, 2024), determining that final approval would be in the second half of 2025.

| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
As previously mentioned, also in November 2023, ANATEL submitted for public consultation the revised Spectrum Use Regulations ("RUE"), approved by Resolution No. 671 of November 3, 2016. The new wording proposed by ANATEL includes, among other changes, new rules for granting secondary spectrum use authorizations, as well as changes to ANATEL's procedures for assessing efficient spectrum use. The expectation, as indicated in ANATEL's 2025-2026 biennium, is that the new RUE will also be published in the second half of 2025.
It is noted that UPI's recent acquisition of the mobile assets of Oi Móvel S.A. by the leading operators in the Brazilian SMP market (Vivo, Claro and TIM), raised competition concerns by ANATEL and CADE, which imposed regulatory remedies in order to foster market competition, among which: (i) Reference Offer in the Relevant National Roaming Market; (ii) Reference Offer for developing Personal Mobile Service – SMP through Virtual Network MVNO – (“ORPA de MVNO”); (iii) Offer of Temporary and Onerous Assignment of Radio Frequency Use Rights; and (iv) Industrial Network Exploration Offer.
As to the Reference Offer of Wholesale National Roaming Products (“National Roaming ORPA”), the regulatory remedy uses as a reference the values approved and calculated by ANATEL, based on a new methodology for the roaming market cost model (LRIC + bottom-up model – Act No. 8822/2022). As a result of the change in the methodology, the new reference values were significant reduced (FAC-HCA top-down model – Act No. 9157/2018).
As to the Offers, mentioned above, specifically the MVNO ORPA and the National Roaming ORPA (“ORPAs”), these were being debated within the scope of ANATEL with respect to: (i) Requirement of Exclusivity of Contracting Companies: ANATEL decided, for MVNO ORPA, that the exclusivity requirement violates Res. 550/2010 and therefore cannot be maintained as a condition. For the Roaming ORPA, exclusivity may only be required in cases of contracting (a) National Roaming under an Industrial Exploration regime and (b) conventional National Roaming (transitional use) only on the 5GSA network; and (ii) Collection of Minimum Monthly Deductible: ANATEL decided that in both ORPAs the minimum monthly deductible cannot be charged for a period of five years.
The Company currently has contracts allowing for the charging of minimum monthly franchise fees both in the National Roaming market and in the MVNO market, so that current contracts, depending on the contracting companies, can be migrated to the new updated offers.
The maintenance of these remedies will be reassessed during the PGMC review process. They had been considered for inclusion in the new PGMC and were included in the draft regulation subject to public consultation No. 64/2023. However, the approved regulation does not consider the remedies related to MVNO ORPA and spectrum sharing, as the Board of Directors determined that there were no market failures or competition issues that would justify them. For the National Roaming ORPA, price control using the LRIC+ Bottom-Up Cost Model was maintained.
Generally, the adoption of disproportionately asymmetric measures and adoption by ANATEL of concepts, prices and remuneration models may impact remuneration and costs, with detrimental effects on the business, financial condition, revenues, results operations and the Company’s prospects.
As to the interconnection fees, which comprise a significant part of the Company's revenue and cost bases, these are charged among the telecommunications service providers in order to allow and remunerate the interconnected use of their networks. To the extent that changes to the rules governing interconnection fees reduce the fees of the Company or its ability to collect such fees, the Company's businesses, financial condition, revenues, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected.
In addition, the Company may be affected by changes in rules and regulations aimed at preserving the rights of consumers of telecommunications services. ANATEL published, in November 2023, the new General Regulation on Consumer Rights (“RGC”), through Resolution No. 765/2023, which came into force on September 1, 2025, replacing Resolution No. 632/2014. This new Regulation changed some provisions such as the way in which telecommunications services are offered, in addition to updating/modernizing some customer service rules. Following discussions on the new RGC, including culminating in the cancellation of some of its provisions, ANATEL postponed the effective date to September 2025.

Therefore, the Company's business, results of operations, revenues and financial conditions could be negatively affected by measures issued by the Brazilian authorities, including: the introduction of new or less flexible operational and/or service requirements; the granting of operating licenses in the Company's areas; limitations on interconnection fees the Company can charge to other telecommunications service providers; imposition of significant sanctions or penalties for failure to comply with regulatory obligations; delays in the granting of, or the failure to grant, approvals for rate increases; and antitrust limitations imposed by ANATEL and CADE.
Finally, there is also the risk that the Company may not be successful in securing future ANATEL tenders for new authorizations for the use of radio frequencies. The Board of Directors of ANATEL, through Ruling No. 148/2024, determined that ANATEL's Superintendencies instructed the publication, by December 31, 2025, of a new Notice for the bidding procedure regarding the 700 MHz subband. A draft Bidding Notice was submitted for debate through Public Consultation No. 59/2024, which received contributions to the end of January 2025. A new tender is expected to be issued for this subband in 2025. As indicated by ANATEL through Resolution No. 757/2022 (subsequently amended by Resolution No. 773/2025), it is expected that ANATEL will hold new auctions by 2028, for the 850 MHz sub-band, and before 2032, for the 900 MHz and 1800 MHz sub-bands.
1.c. Corporate events in 2025
1.c.1. Acquisition of Samauma Brands Electronics Trade, Import and Export Ltda. ("Samauma") by Terra Networks Brasil Ltda. ("Terra Networks") (Business Combination)
On March 21, 2025, Terra Networks, a direct subsidiary of the Company, completed the acquisition of all shares of Samauma for up to R$66,451, subject to meeting agreed operational and financial metrics (“Transaction”). This amount includes a non-compete agreement that was recognized separately from the business combination at a fair value of R$7,755. The remaining purchase price (R$58,696) was allocated to the net assets acquired, excluding the non-compete agreement, which was recognized as an intangible asset.
Samauma was founded in 2012 and is engaged in marketing a broad portfolio of smartphone accessories and electronics under the "i2GO" brand with high-quality, high-performance and affordable products.
On the date of the Transaction, Samauma had over 20,000 points of sale in Brazil, has a robust product development pipeline and marketing process, with gross revenue in 2024 of over R$65,000.
The Transaction documents contain terms and conditions common to this type of transaction.
The Transaction is part of the Company's strategy to strengthen its presence in the market for accessories for smartphones and other electronic devices, operating with its own brand, OVVI, committed to offering innovative and high-quality products, strategically positioning to meet the needs of the constantly evolving market. Following the acquisition, the OVVI and i2GO brands will coexist complementing each other in terms of portfolio and market positioning.
With the completion of the Transaction, as of March 21, 2025, Terra Networks now has direct control of Samauma.
Pursuant to IFRS 3, business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method in which the consideration transferred is measured at fair value comparing this to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the equity interests issued.
As of the date of issued of this individual and consolidated quarterly information (“ITRs”) of the Company, Terra Networks is in the process of finalizing the Purchase Price Allocation (PPA) report for the fair value of the Samauma identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed from Samauma. The PPA report will be finalized within one year from the acquisition date. As of September 30, 2025, the Company's consolidated financial statements include the preliminary allocations of the PPA.
The assumptions, critical judgments, methods and hypotheses used to determine these fair values were as follows:

Brand
The “royalty relief” approach was used to assess the brand ("i2GO"), which consists of estimating the cash flows that the Company would otherwise pay for royalties to third parties to use the brand, assuming that it was not owned by the Company. The projected flows correspond to the amounts that would be paid based on a royalty rate applied to i2Go's net revenue over the estimated useful life of the brand.
The main assumptions used in the assessment of the brands were: (i) Projected net revenue over 5.5 years (2025 to 2030); Average royalty rate applied: 1.25%, according to maturity of the years; Discount rate (net WACC + Premium): 18.13% per year; Tax rate (tax factor): 27% and; Estimated useful life: 5.5 years, with projections limited to the considered flow horizon.
The fair value of the brand was estimated at R$1,744, with an amortization period of five years.
Contingent Liabilities
Pursuant to IFRS 3, the acquirer recognizes, on the acquisition date, contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination even if outflows of resources are not probable for settlement of the obligation, provided that it is a present obligation arising from past events and its fair value can be measured reliably. Contingent liabilities with a fair value of R$2,462 were recognized for this acquisition, which were determined based on the estimated cash outflow for their settlement on the acquisition date.
Composition of the fair value of the net assets acquired
A preliminary summary of the fair value of the net assets acquired for R$4,562, as well as the goodwill generated on the acquisition date, pending final adjustments, is as follows:
| Current assets | 21,120 | Current liabilities | 13,513 | |||
| Cash and cash equivalents | 292 | Loans and financing | 9,736 | |||
| Accounts receivable | 10,295 | Other liabilities | 3,777 | |||

Non-compete agreement
For the non-compete agreement, recognized separately from the business combination, the income approach was used, based on the “with and without” contract method (“with/without”). Potential losses of net revenue associated with the sellers' performance as competitors were considered, projecting two scenarios: one with the agreement in force and one without.
The main assumptions used in the assessment of the non-compete agreement were: (i) Revenue Reduction Capacity: from 15.0% (2025), 25.0% (2026) to 0.00% (2034); (ii) Probability of Competition: from 10.0% (2025), 50.0% (2026) to 0.00% (2034); (iii) Probable Revenue Loss: from 1.5% (2025), 12.5% (2026) to 0.00% (2034), according to the intersection of the factors above; and (iv) Discount rate (WACC): 18.08% per year.
The fair value of the non-compete agreement was estimated at R$7,755, with an amortization term of four years.
Other information
The adjusted total purchase consideration will not exceed R$66,451, with payment made as follows: (i) R$22,000 paid in cash, upon completion of the Transaction and; (ii) the balance of R$44,451 will be paid in accordance with contractual clauses, accruing DI interest rate between the closing date of the transaction and 10 days before the actual payment.
The fair value of accounts receivable totals R$10,295, which does not differ from the book value, consisting of a gross amount of R$11,081, net of estimated losses for impairment in the amount of R$786.
From the acquisition date through to the date of these financial statements, Samauma contributed R$26,801 in net operating revenue and a loss of R$4,103 to the Company's results.

With the completion of the acquisition, as of October 1, 2024, CloudCo Brasil became the direct controller of IPNET.
The Transaction expanded CloudCo Brasil's product portfolio and strengthened its professional and managed services, enabling its acceleration and growth. The investment also strengthens the Company's digital ecosystem in the B2B business, advancing innovative solutions.
Pursuant to IFRS 3, business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated by adding the fair values of the transferred assets, the liabilities assumed on the acquisition date with the former controlling shareholders of the acquired company and the equity interests issued in exchange for control of the acquired company.
On the date of these individual and consolidated ITRs of the Company, CloudCo Brasil had already completed the report for the allocation of the purchase price (PPA), through the analysis of the determination of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed from IPNET.

| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
The premises, critical judgments, methods and hypotheses used by CloudCo Brasil to determine these fair values were as follows:
Brand
To evaluate the brand, the profitability approach ("Income approach") was used using the avoided royalties method ("Relief from royalties"). This method assumes that the intangible asset has a fair value based on royalty income and represents the savings of the asset owner by avoiding the need to pay royalties to a third party for the license to use the intangible asset. Management's intention at the time of acquiring the stake was to use the acquiree's know-how and its ability to implement the new business model.
The main assumptions used in the evaluation of the brands were: (i) Revenue: Evaluation of the intangible asset was based on net revenue projections supported by the entity's historical growth, without the synergy of the acquisition of IPNET; (ii) Royalty rate: The research carried out at the time, indicated the telecommunications market uses, approximately 1% as an average royalty rate on net revenue; (iii) Brand costs and expenses: A percentage of 10% of net revenue was considered with royalties for brand maintenance, such as marketing expenses and others; (iv) Tax rate: 34%, in accordance with Brazilian tax legislation; and (v) Discount rate (“WACC”) after taxes: 18.23%.
As a result of the calculation, the fair value of the brand was estimated at R$10,099, with an amortization period of five years.
Customer portfolio
The customer portfolio was evaluated using the MMSE method (“Multi-period Excess Earnings Method”), this method for evaluating the customer portfolio was used due to the possibility of attributing the cash flow generated directly to the identified asset.
The main assumptions used in evaluating the customer portfolio were: (i) Revenue: for portfolio projection purposes, we consider the net recurring revenue for the year 2024. The average customer retention rate in the database was calculated, as well as the evolution of average revenue per customer in the periods. The portfolio turnover (“churn”) was estimated at 20%; (ii) Deductions and Expenses: Deductions on gross revenue were designed in accordance with historical practice, substantially taxes on sales or services. Expense costs were projected by comparing historical data and forecasting improvements in gross margin through actions to contain fixed costs over time. (iii) Tax rate: 34%, in accordance with Brazilian tax legislation; (iv) Discount rate (“WACC”) after taxes: 18.23%.
As a result of the calculation described, the fair value of the customer portfolio was estimated at R$28,619, with an amortization period of five years.
Contingent Liabilities
Pursuant to with IFRS 3, the acquirer recognizes, on the acquisition date, contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination even if it is not probable that outflows of resources will be required to settle the obligation, as long as it is a present obligation that arises from past events and its fair value can be measured reliably. In compliance with the previous requirements, contingent liabilities at fair value of R$8,964 were recognized in this acquisition, which were determined based on the estimated cash outflow for settlement on the acquisition date.

| Current assets | 31,206 | Current liabilities | 35,867 | |||
| Cash and cash equivalents | 13 | Loans and financing | 3,063 | |||
| Accounts receivable | 27,177 | Other liabilities | 32,804 | |||

.
| (1) | Refers to the allocation of R$95,634 of the fair value attributed to the Indemnification asset related to the contingent liability, accruing SELIC interest. |
| (2) | Refers to the allocation of fair value attributed to intangibles of R$38,718, being: (i) brand (R$10,099);and (ii) customer portfolio (R$28,619). |
| (3) | Refers to deferred income tax and social contribution on the allocation of the fair value attributed to the contingent liability, accruing SELIC interest. |
| (4) | Refers to the allocation of the fair value attributed to the contingent liability, accruing by SELIC interest. |
| (5) | Refers to the value of the goodwill calculated on the acquisition of IPNET with the expectation of future synergies from the combination of the acquiree's businesses, which may be used for tax purposes. |
Non-compete agreement
For the non-compete agreement recognized separately from the business combination the income approach was used, based on the “with and without” contract (“with/without” method). This method consists of projecting the expected cash flows for two scenarios: one with the non-compete agreement and the other without the non-compete agreement. Cash flow without the non-compete agreement considers a revenue loss rate and a potential competitor's probability of effectively competing with the Company. The difference between the cash flows of the two scenarios, which corresponds to the loss avoided by the non-compete agreement, is brought to present value by the specific rate of return for this asset and compared with the present value of the original cash flow (without loss revenue).
Two variables were considered to adjust the revenue that would be impacted by competition with sellers: (i) Capacity for reduction; and (ii) Likelihood of competition.

| Three and Nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 | |
| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
The main assumptions used in the evaluation of the Non-Compete Agreement: (i) Reduction capacity: measures the impact on the reduction of gross revenue if the salespeople were not present in the acquired business seeking to increase this revenue, as well as if they were competing with the business that was sold. Initially, a greater impact of 25% was estimated, which will reduce year by year to 10% in the last year of the agreement; (ii) Probability of Competition: measures the probability of salespeople leaving the business, giving up the earn-out benefits in each period. The probability of competition decreases each year, starting at 50% and ending at 30%; (iii) Revenue Loss: represents the multiplication of the revenue reduction capacity by the probability of competition. The probability of loss also decreases each year, starting at 12.5% and ending at 3.0%; (iv) Projection: for the other projection factors, we kept them constant as in the original projection; (v) Working Capital: the same working capital metrics (days outstanding) were used to assess the impact of changes in working capital; (vi) After-tax discount rate (“WACC”): 18.18%.
As a result of the calculation described, the fair value of the non-compete was estimated at R$26,964, with an amortization period of six years.
Other information
The total consideration was R$196,835, with payment as follows: R$33,043, paid in cash upon completion of the Transaction and the balance of R$163,792 is being paid in accordance with contractual clauses, updated by the variation of the IPCA / SELIC rate.
The fair value of acquired accounts receivable is R$27,177. The gross contractual amount for trade receivables due is R$31,714, with a loss allowance of R$4,537 recognized on acquisition.
1.d. Reform of taxes on consumption
On December 20, 2023, Constitutional Amendment (“EC”) No. 132 was enacted, establishing the Tax Reform (“Reform”) on consumption. Complementary Law No. 214/2025 (“LC”) was sanctioned by the President of the Republic on January 16, 2025 and Complementary Bill No. 108/2024, regulates tax litigation and rules for administering new taxes, is in the final stages of processing in the national congress.
The dual VAT model is under federal jurisdictions for Contribution on Goods and Services - CBS and nonfederal for Tax on Goods and Services - IBS, which will replace the PIS, COFINS, ICMS and ISS taxes.
A Selective Tax (“IS”) under federal jurisdiction, which will be levied on the production, extraction, marketing or import of goods and services that are harmful to health and the environment; under the LC, the IS will not apply to telecommunications services. There will be a transition period from 2026 to 2032, during which the two tax systems (old and new) will coexist.
The impacts of the Reform will only be fully known once the enactment of new ordinary laws (federal, state and municipal), decrees, normative instructions and technical notes is complete.
Since the changes will be applied prospectively, the Reform had no effect on the individual and consolidated quarterly information (“ITRs”) for the period ended September 30, 2025.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF INDIVIDUAL AND CONSOLIDATED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
2.a. Statement of compliance
The individual (Parent Company) and consolidated (Consolidated) quarterly information (“ITRs”) were prepared and are being presented in accordance with Technical Pronouncement CPC 21 - Interim Statements, issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”) and with international standards IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), the “IFRS accounting standards” (IFRS® Accounting Standards), including interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC® Interpretations) or its predecessor, Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC® Interpretations) and in a manner consistent with the deliberations issued by the CVM, applicable to the preparation of ITRs.
The Company also considered the guidelines set forth in Technical Guidance OCPC 07, issued by the CPC in November 2014, when preparing the ITRs and disclosures are limited to all matters of significance to the financial statements, which is consistent with the information utilized by Management in the performance of its duties.
2.b. Basis of preparation and presentation
The individual and consolidated ITRs were prepared under the historical cost convention, other than for certain assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value.
The Company prepared the consolidated financial ITRs based on the assumption of operational continuity.
An asset is classified as current when it meets any of the following criteria: (a) it is expected to be realized, or is intended to be sold or consumed, in the normal course of the entity's operating cycle; (b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; (c) it is expected to be realized within twelve months after the balance sheet date; or (d) it is cash or a cash equivalent, unless its exchange or use to settle a liability is prohibited for at least twelve months after the balance sheet date.
A liability is classified as current when it meets any of the following criteria: (a) it is expected to be settled during the entity's normal operating cycle; (b) it is held primarily for the purpose of being traded; (c) it is expected to be settled within twelve months after the balance sheet date; or (d) the entity does not have the right, at the balance sheet date, to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after that date.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are all classified as non-current.
The Statements of Cash Flows were prepared pursuant to IAS 7 to reflect the changes in cash that occurred in the periods presented, using the indirect method.
The accounting standards adopted in Brazil require the presentation of the Statement of Value Added (“DVA”), both individual and consolidated; IFRS standards do not require such presentation. The DVA was prepared in accordance with technical pronouncement CPC 09 and is being presented as supplementary information for IFRS purposes.
These ITRs provide comparative information: (i) for the balance sheets, the positions at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024; (ii) for the statements of income and comprehensive income, the three-and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, and 2024; and (iii) for the statements of value added, changes in equity, and cash flows, the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025, and 2024.
The Board of Directors authorized the issuance of the financial statements at the meeting held on October 30, 2025.

2.c. Functional and reporting currency
Individual and consolidated ITRs are presented in thousands of Brazilian Real/Reais (R$) (unless otherwise mentioned). The Company's functional and presentation currency is the Real.
Transactions in foreign currency are converted into Brazilian Reais as follows: (i) assets, liabilities and equity (except share capital and capital reserves) are converted at the closing exchange rate on the balance sheet date; (ii) expenses and revenues are converted at the average exchange rate, except for specific operations that are converted at the rate on the date of the transaction; and (iii) share capital and capital reserves are converted at the rate on the date of the transaction.
Gains and losses from the cumulative translation adjustments from the conversion of investees abroad are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from the conversion of monetary assets and liabilities between the exchange rate in force on the date of the transaction and the end of the years (except the conversion of investments abroad) are recognized in the statement of income.
2.d. Basis of consolidation
Equity interests in subsidiaries or jointly controlled companies are valued using the equity method in the individual parent company quarterly information. In the consolidated quarterly information, the investment and all balances of assets and liabilities, income and expenses arising from transactions and equity interest in subsidiaries are eliminated in full. Investments in jointly controlled companies are maintained under the equity method in the consolidated quarterly information.
The information relating to direct and jointly controlled subsidiaries is the same as that in Note 12. Investments, disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, except for the acquisition of Samauma by Terra Networks (Note 1.c.1) and for the acquisition of IoTCo Brasil (Note 1.c.2) .
Information on the investees is presented in Note 12.
2.e. Segment reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available which is assessed on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker in determining how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing the segment's performance. Considering that: (i) all decisions are made based on consolidated reports; (ii) the mission of the Company and its subsidiaries is to provide its customers with quality telecommunications services; and (iii) all decisions relating to strategic, financial planning, purchasing, investments and application of resources are made on a consolidated basis, Management's conclusion is that the Company and its subsidiaries operate in a single operating segment providing services telecommunications.
2.f. Significant accounting practices
The information in the explanatory notes that did not undergo significant changes compared to December 31, 2024 was not all repeated in these ITRs.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Company's ITRs for the period ended September 30, 2025 are consistent with those used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and should be read together with these financial statements.
The Company did not early adopt new accounting statements or interpretations unless mandatory.

2.g. Significant accounting judgments estimates and assumptions
The preparation of individual and consolidated ITRs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and the exercise of judgment by the Company's Management in applying its accounting policies. These estimates are based on experience, best knowledge, information available at the balance sheet date and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances. The settlement of transactions involving these estimates may result in values that differ from those recorded in the ITRs due to the criteria inherent to the estimation process. The Company reviews its estimates at least annually.
The significant and relevant estimates and judgments applied by the Company in the preparation of these ITRs have not changed in relation to those presented in the following explanatory notes as presented in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024: Corporate events of 2024 (Business Combination); accounts receivable; Income tax and social contribution; PP&E; intangibles; provisions and contingencies; loans and financing, debentures, leases and other creditors; pension plans and other post-employment benefits; and financial instruments and capital and risk management.

8.e. Uncertain Tax Treatments
The Company and its subsidiaries are contesting several assessments filed by the Brazilian Federal Tax Authority (“RFB“) for alleged incorrect deductions of expenses, mainly related to the amortization of goodwill, at various administrative and judicial levels, of R$39,502,275 and R$36,939,312 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Management, sunder the advice of its legal advisors, believes that a large part of these deductions will likely be accepted once examined by the higher courts of last resort (acceptance probability greater than 50%). These amounts accrue SELIC interest.
When the Company and its subsidiaries believe that the probability of loss is greater than 50%, a non-current income tax and social contribution liability is recognized. The amount recognized was R$264,734 and R$216,497 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These claims involve compensation for overpayment of income tax and social contribution awaiting approval by the RFB.
8.f. Adaptation to new OECD Pillar II rules
On December 27, 2024 Law 15,079/24 was enacted, establishing the additional Social Contribution on Net Income (“CSLL”) adapting Brazilian legislation to the Global Rules Against Base Erosion, OECD model (“Pillar II”). The Law determines that if a Company, presents an effective combined rate of Income Tax and Social Contribution on Net Income of less than 15%, it must make an additional payment to top up to this minimum percentage. This rule becomes effective as of January 2025; if an additional payment is necessary, the amount will be collected in the following year. The Company does not expect a significant impact as its effective rates exceed the stipulated minimum rate.

19.c.1. Regulatory provisions
Management, under the advice of legal counsel, believes the likelihood of loss of the following regulatory proceedings to be probable:
The Company is a party to administrative proceedings initiated mainly by ANATEL, alleging non-compliance with sectoral regulations, as well as filing legal proceedings, mostly, sanctions applied by ANATEL at the administrative level. These include:
| • | Burden: Specifically regarding the payment of the onerous charge applied to Personal Mobile Service (SMP) (SMP burden), there is a dispute as to whether revenues are due for radio frequency renewal. Management, under the advice of legal counsel, assesses that there is a probable loss for the SMP burden regarding data revenue, due to the existence of unfavorable decisions both by ANATEL in 2021 and in the lower court. Although the Company managed to overturn one of the unfavorable decisions, the judgment of the Company's Appeal in the lower court was not final, and ANATEL has already appealed. The Company is now prospectively paying amounts for ANATEL, starting in 2022, accordingly, the provision is maintained. |
| • | General User Rights (“DGU”): The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in administrative and judicial discussions regarding the rights of users of telecommunications services, with regard the General Regulation of Consumer Rights of Telecommunications Services (“RGC”), approved by Resolution No. 632/2014, especially regarding the provision of services, collection of amounts, disputes, reimbursement, among others. |
| • | Quality: The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in administrative and judicial discussions regarding telecommunications services arising from SMP, SeAC and SCM concessions, compliance with the indicators that measure the quality of these services nationwide, based on the Telecommunications Services Quality Regulation (“RQUAL”), approved by Resolution No. 717/2019. |
| • | Relationship with other Providers: The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in administrative and legal discussions affecting the regulatory relationship with other telecommunications service providers regarding interconnection, EILD, and the supply of other wholesale products. |
The consolidated provisions totaled R$941,675 and R$953,080 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Other cases:
| • | The Company and/or its subsidiaries are involved in administrative and legal discussions regarding other matters, including for service interruptions, various regulatory obligations, technical irregularities, Public Civil Actions, among others. |
| • | On October 1, 2024, the Company was advised of a Monitoring and Control Procedure ("PAC") for Reimbursement to monitor compliance with the obligation to compensate consumers identified in a Procedure for Determining Non-Compliance with Obligations ("PADO") that is in progress. As the original PADO has not issued its final decision, a request was made to suspend the PAC, which was accepted by ANATEL through a Decision. |
The consolidated amounts provisions totaled R$102,686 and R$198,015 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

19.c.2. Possible risk of losses - regulatory contingencies
Management, under the advice of legal counsel, believes the likelihood of loss of the following regulatory proceedings is possible:
| • | Dispute regarding revenues in the calculation of the burden due to the extension of radio frequencies associated with SMP (except for SMP data revenues in Note c.1). ANATEL believes that the calculation of the burden should consider 2% on all economic profits resulting from the provision of the SMP service. The Company believes that the revenues that are not part of the SMP service plans, such as interconnection, SVA, revenues earned in the 15th year of the licenses' validity and others, should not be considered in the calculation of the burden. Accordingly, the Company filed administrative claims and lawsuits to challenge ANATEL's burden charges. In July 2024, ANATEL's Board of Directors ruled on the PAC for the calculation of the burden for the 2016 biennium, related to the extension of the radio frequency associated with the SMP, the result of which was partially favorable to the Company. It decided to include the restricted scope in the calculation methodology, resulting in a reduction in amounts. In this regard, ANATEL has already proceeded with the recalculation of the 2017 and 2018 biennium, to record the effects of the decision, with the remaining periods pending recalculation by ANATEL. Other proceedings may be impacted by this decision, with pending recalculation by ANATEL. The estimated possible loss prognosis for the SMP burden, is R$1,117,606 and R$1,024,955 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. |
| • | Legal proceeding filed by the Company to overturn a decision by CADE, alleging that certain operators (Claro, Oi Móvel and the Company) had engaged in anticompetitive conduct by forming the Rede Correios Consortium to compete in electronic auction No. 144/2015, held by the Brazilian Post and Telegraph Company; and that there was alleged price discrimination by the Company in relation to services offered to BT Brasil Serviços de Telecomunicações Ltda (“BT”), imposing a fine of R$28,394, which update with interest totals R$41,922 and R$38,109 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This action seeks to annul the aforementioned sanction, based on (i) no legal prohibition to form a consortium to participate in a public bidding process; (ii) the lack of typicality and the impossibility of sanctioning by analogy; and (iii) the absence of clear criteria for calculating the sanction and the lack of reasonableness. The case is in the first instance awaiting a ruling. |
| • | The PADO that deals with coverage targets for which the fine applied was R$127,741, which updated with interest totals R$179,953 and R$167,658 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, exchanging the formal with alternative means of settling the fine, by way of investment in the installation of a 4G radio base station in 188 locations no having access to this technology, within two and a half years, including year one maintenance costs. The installation will not be performed by range sharing, swap, network rental, industrial exploration contracts, or other contractual means. Upon confirmation by ANATEL, compliance within the determined period has been subject to monitoring. |
| • | On October 1, 2024, the Company was advised of a Monitoring and Control Procedure (“PAC”) for Compensation to monitor compliance with the obligation to provide compensation to consumers identified in a Procedure for Determining Non-Compliance with Obligations (“PADO”) which is in progress, which updated with interest totals R$39,003 and R$35,968 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As the original PADO has no final decision yet, a request was made to suspend the PAC, which was accepted by ANATEL through a Decision. |
The consolidated estimates totaled R$1,378,484 and R$1,266,690 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
In addition to the specific cases above, the Company is involved in administrative proceedings instituted mainly by ANATEL (other agents, including other operators, also have claims against the Company) based on alleged non-compliance with sectoral regulations, as well as ordinary legal proceedings and writs of mandamus, mainly, sanctions applied by ANATEL in the administrative sphere (Note 19.c.1.), namely: General User Rights (“DGU”); Quality and Relationship between Providers. The consolidated amounts involved totaled R$1,291,733 and R$1,230,427 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

| • | The Company is a party to legal proceedings concerning the suspension of services, non-increase of tariffs, repairs and maintenance of poles, not currently inestimable. These proceedings are still awaiting judgment in the respective courts. |
The consolidated estimates totaled R$461,608 and R$569,520 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

19.d.1. Civil provisions
Management, under the advice of legal counsel, believes that the following civil proceedings will result in probable losses:
| • | The Company is a party to proceedings involving rights to the supplementary amounts from shares calculated on community telephony plants and network expansion plans since 1996 (supplement of share proceedings). These proceedings are at different stages: lower courts, court of justice and high court of justice. On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the provision was R$136,087 and R$152,109, respectively. |
| • | The Company and/or its subsidiaries are party to various civil proceedings related to individual matters at a consumer level, relating to the non-provision of services and/or products sold. On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the provision was R$259,315 and R$293,571, respectively. |
| • | The Company and/or its subsidiaries are party to various civil proceedings of a consumer and non-consumer nature at administrative and judicial levels, all arising in the ordinary course of business. On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the provision was R$1,000,731 and R$965,461, respectively. |
19.d.2. Possible losses - civil contingencies
Management, under the advice of legal counsel, believes that the risk of losses is possible for the following civil proceedings:
| • | The Company and its subsidiaries are party to other civil claims, at several levels, related to service rendering rights. Such claims have been filed by individual consumers, civil associations representing consumer rights of consumers or by the Consumer Protection (“PROCON“), as well as by the Federal and State Public Prosecutor's Office. The Company is also party to other claims of several types related to the ordinary course of business. |
| • | Intellectual Property: Lune Projetos Especiais Telecomunicação Comércio e Ind. Ltda. (“Lune“), a Brazilian company, filed lawsuits on November 20, 2001, against 23 wireless carriers claiming to own the patent for “Bina“, a caller ID. The purpose of the lawsuit was to interrupt provision of such service by carriers and to seek indemnification equivalent to the amount paid by consumers for using the service. |

An unfavorable decision was handed down determining that the Company should refrain from selling mobile phones with the Bina ID service, subject to a daily fine of R$10,000.00 (Ten thousand reais) in the event of non-compliance. Furthermore, according to that decision, the Company must pay indemnification for royalties, to be calculated on settlement. Motions for Clarification were proposed by all parties and Lune's motions for clarification were accepted since an injunctive relief in this stage of the proceedings was deemed applicable. A review appeal was filed which granted a stay of execution suspending the unfavorable decision until final judgment in view of the sentence handed down on June 30, 2016, by the 4th Chamber of the Court of Justice of the Federal District, to annul the lower court sentence and remit the proceedings back to the lower court for a new examination. An expert report was submitted and the claims were dismissed. The parties filed an appeal. On February 1, 2023, the Court of Justice of the Federal District and Territories (“TJDFT”) judged the appeals and, unanimously, dismissed them, upholding the sentence of inadmissibility. Subsequently, a Special Appeal was filed by Lune, addressed by the Superior Court of Justice. An internal appeal was filed by Lune, which has not yet been judged. Management is unable to reasonably estimate a liability with respect to this claim.
| • | The Company, together with other operators that provide telecommunications services, is a defendant in disputes that challenge the practice adopted by operators of imposing a prescriptive term for the use of prepaid minutes. In other words, the plaintiff claims that the minutes of the prepaid package should not expire after the end of a specific term, and can be used at any time by the consumer. The TRF of the 6th Region, the public civil action that was originally processed in Uberlândia/MG forwarded it to the new TRF, which rejected the necessary referral, maintaining the inadmissibility of the claims made by the MPF, with the decision of the TRF of the 6th Region having already become final. There is still an ongoing public civil action, which was originally processed in Belém/PA, which is awaiting judgment in the TRF of the 1st Region, as well as the public civil action proposed by the OAB/SP against the Federal Union, ANATEL and operators, which was summarily extinguished, but which, by decision of the TRF of the 3rd Region, determined the processing of the action, without any sentence having been handed down yet. |

On February 18, 2025, the Company informed its shareholders and the market in general that, on February 17, 2025, the term provided for in article 174 of the Corporations Law ended; therefore, the reduction became fully effective.
On February 27, 2025, the Company informed its shareholders that, following its acquisition of own shares under the Company's Share Buyback Program, the unit value per share to be paid as a result of the reduction in share capital approved at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on December 18, 2024 would be R$1.23337023478 per common share issued by the Company.
The return of capital was settled on July 15, 2025, based on the individual shareholder positions as per the Company’s books of record by February 27, 2025 (including). After this date, the shares issued by the Company were considered "ex-refund rights."
23.a.2) Split and reverse split of the Company's shares
On March 13, 2025, the Company informed its shareholders and the market in general that: (i) at the Company's EGM held on the same date, the proposal for the reverse split of all common shares issued by the Company was approved, in the proportion of 40 shares for 1 share, and subsequent split, so that 1 reverse split share now corresponds to 80 shares, without changing the value of the Company's share capital, but only its total number of shares, with the consequent change to its Bylaws (“Transaction”); and (ii) at a meeting of the Company's Statutory Board of Directors held on the same date after the EGM, it was approved that the procedures for implementing the Transaction would begin on the same date, and the term was defined as between March 14, 2025 (inclusive) and April 14, 2025 (inclusive) so that shareholders holding common shares of the Company could, if applicable, compose their share positions in whole lots multiples of 40, at their free and exclusive discretion, in order to ensure ownership of a whole number of shares as a result of the Transaction (“Free Position Adjustment Period”).
As approved at the EGM, the Transaction did not result in any change to the total number of the Company's securities underlying its American Depositary Receipt - “ADR” program.
The objective of the Transaction was to increase the liquidity of the Company's shares and, consequently, improve their price formation by increasing the number of outstanding shares effectively traded and adjusting their price. Furthermore, the Transaction intends to: (i) reduce operating and administrative costs resulting from the current shareholder base; (ii) provide greater efficiency in the management of the shareholder base; (iii) increase the efficiency of the systems for registering book-entry shares and custody; (iv) improve the provision of information and communication, and service to shareholders; and; (v) provide greater efficiency in the distribution of profits to the Company's shareholders.
Transaction Completion
The Transaction was completed on the first business day following the end of the Free Position Adjustment Period, that is, on April 15, 2025, at which time the Company's share capital was divided into 3,261,287,392 common shares with no par value reflecting the new shareholding positions. Once the Free Position Adjustment Period has ended, shareholders who hold fractions of shares resulting from the Transaction will be subject to the procedure set forth under “Fractions of Remaining Shares”, described below.
As of April 15, 2025, inclusive, the shares began to be traded ex-reverse split and ex-split.

After the end of the Free Position Adjustment Period, fractional shares held by shareholders who did not hold whole units of 40 shares were sold at an auction held at B3 on behalf of the fractional shareholders (“Auction”). The net proceeds from the sale of these shares were apportioned and distributed proportionally among all fractional shareholders as follows: (i) for shareholders with complete registration data, the amounts were deposited in the checking account indicated in the respective shareholder's registration; (ii) for shareholders with shares deposited in the B3 Central Depository, the amounts were credited directly to the Central Depository, which was responsible for transferring them to the respective shareholder through its custody agent; and (iii) for other unidentified shareholders or those without complete registration data: the amounts are available at the Company, for the legal term, for receipt by the respective holder upon provision of complete registration data.
The resources allocated to investors (residents and non-residents) were subject to income tax on any gains, which were taxed as "net gains", in accordance with current legislation.
The Transaction (i) was applied to all of the Company's shareholders; (ii) did not result in any change to the value of the Company's share capital; (iii) did not modify the rights granted by the shares issued by the Company to their holders; and (iv) implied a change, consistent with the Transaction, in the number of shares comprising each ADR, with one ADR representing two common shares issued by the Company, while the total number of ADRs in circulation remained unchanged.
On May 19, 2025, the Company informed its shareholders and the market in general that, on the same date, an auction was held for the sale of 35,633,792 common shares, formed from the consolidation of fractions of shares resulting from the reverse stock split of all common shares issued by the Company, in the proportion of 40 shares for 1 share, with subsequent split, so that 1 reverse stock split now corresponds to 80 shares, without changing the value of the Company's share capital, but only its total number of shares, as approved by the shareholders at the Company's Extraordinary General Meeting held on March 13, 2025.
The proceeds of the auction generated R$949,354, net of costs and fees, equivalent to R$26.64196300439 per common share. This amount was made available to holders of fractional shares, based in their respective, in the appropriate proportions, up to May 28, 2025.
On the date of issue of these ITRs, the Company had already paid R$124,064 to the identified holders of fractional shares, leaving the amount of R$825,290 available to unidentified holders or those with incomplete registration data.
Composition of the Company's Capital
The subscribed and paid-in share capital was R$60,071,416 and R$62,071,416 on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, represented by shares, all common, book-entry and with no par value, distributed as follows:

In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Directors and Officers received no pension, retirement or similar benefits.
29. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT PLANS
Plan liabilities are recognized at the fair value of the cash-settled transaction. Fair value is measured initially and at each year-end date up to and including the settlement date, any change in fair value is recognized as employee benefit expense (Note 25.) in the statement of income. Fair value is recognized as an expense over the period to the acquisition date, with a corresponding liability.
The Company's parent company, Telefónica, maintains different compensation plans based on the quoted value of its shares (Talent for the Future Share Plan (“TFSP“) and Performance Share Plan (“PSP“), which were also offered to directors and employees of its subsidiaries, including the Company and its subsidiaries.

31. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
31.a. Derivative transactions
The Company's derivative financial instruments are mainly intended to mitigate inflation risks on leases indexed to the IPCA, in addition to mitigating foreign exchange risks for liabilities in foreign currency. Derivative financial instruments are not used for speculation purposes.

Management believes that the Company's internal controls for its derivatives are adequate to control risks associated with each strategy for the market. Gains/losses obtained or sustained by the Company in relation to its derivatives show that its risk management has been appropriate.
Whilst these derivative contracts qualify for hedge accounting, the hedged item is adjusted to fair value, offsetting the result of the derivatives, pursuant to hedge accounting rules. This hedge accounting applies both to financial liabilities and probable cash flows in foreign currency.
Derivatives contracts include specific penalties for breach of contract. Breach of contract in agreements with financial institutions may cause early liquidation of the contract.
On September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held no embedded derivatives contracts.
31.a.1. Fair value of derivative financial instruments
The valuation method for the fair value of financial liabilities (if applicable) and derivative financial instruments is the discounted cash flow method, based on expected settlements or realization of liabilities and assets at market rates prevailing at the balance sheet date.
The fair values of the positions in Reais are calculated by projecting future inflows from transactions using B3 yield curves and discounting these flows to present value using market DI rates for swaps announced by B3.
The market values of foreign exchange derivatives were obtained using the market exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and projected market rates obtained from the currency's coupon-rate yield curves. The linear convention of 360 calendar days was used to determine coupon rates of positions indexed in foreign currencies, while the exponential convention of 252 business days was used to determine coupon rates for positions indexed to CDI rates.

31.a.2. Sensitivity analysis of the Company's risk variables
Publicly-held companies are required to disclose sensitivity analyses for each type of market risk considered significant by Management, arising from financial instruments, to which the entity is exposed at the closing date, including derivative financial instruments.
Each financial instrument derivative transaction was assessed, and assumptions under a probable base scenario and a further two stressed scenarios that could adversely impact the Company.
For the probable base scenario, at the maturity dates for each of the transactions, the market rates sourced from B3 yield curves (currencies and interest rates) were used plus data from the IBGE, Central Bank, FGV, among others. In the probable scenario, there is no impact on the fair value of the above-mentioned derivatives. For scenarios II and III, consistent with the CVM requirement, risk variables were stressed by 25% and 50%, respectively.

31.b. Fair value
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurement is based on the assumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability will take place (i) in the principal market for the asset or liability; and (ii) in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The Company and or its subsidiaries must have access to the principal or most advantageous market.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their best economic interests.
Fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into consideration the capacity of a market participant to generate economic benefits through the best use of the asset or selling it to another market participant that would also make the best use of the asset.
The Company and its subsidiaries use suitable valuation techniques for their circumstances and for which there is sufficient data to measure the fair value, which maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs.
The fair values of all assets and liabilities are classified within the fair value hierarchy described below, based on the lowest level of information that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole: (i) Level 1: quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (ii) Level 2: valuation techniques for which there is a significantly lower level of information to measure the fair value directly or indirectly observable; and (iii) Level 3: valuation techniques for which the lowest and significant level of information to measure the fair value is not available.
For assets and liabilities recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Company and its subsidiaries determine whether transfers have occurred between levels of the hierarchy, reassessing the categorization (based on information at the lowest and most significant level for measuring the fair value as a whole) to each year end.
The Company and its subsidiaries assessed their financial assets and liabilities in relation to market values using available information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Both the interpretation of market data and the selection of valuation methods require considerable judgment and reasonable estimates to produce the most adequate realization value. As a result, the estimates shown do not necessarily indicate amounts that could be realized in the current market. The use of different assumptions for the market and/or methodologies may have a material effect on estimated realization values.
In the period/year ended September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no transfers of fair value assessments between the aforementioned levels.
For fair value disclosure purposes, the Company and its subsidiaries have classified assets and liabilities based on the nature, characteristics, and risks of each item, as well as the level within the fair value hierarchy.

| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
The Company includes in the net debt structure the balances of loans, financing, debentures, leases and other creditors and derivative financial instruments, less cash and equivalents cash and accounts receivable from credit rights (FIDC Vivo Money).
31.d. Risk management policy
The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to several market risks as a result of its commercial operations, debts contracted to finance its activities and debt-related financial instruments.
31.d.1. Currency Risk
The Company is exposed to the foreign exchange risk for financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, which may reduce receivables or increase payables depending on the exchange rate in the period.
Hedging transactions were executed to minimize the risks associated with exchange rate changes on financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies. This balance is subject to daily changes due to the dynamics of the business. However, the Company seeks to provide cover for the net balance of these assets and obligations (US$63,306 thousand and €13,235 thousand paid by September 30, 2025, and US$40,295 thousand, €15,988 thousand and £71 thousand paid by December 31, 2024) to mitigate its foreign exchange risks.
31.d.2. Interest and Inflation Risk
This risk may arise from an unfavorable change in the domestic interest rate, which may adversely affect financial expenses from the portion of debentures linked to the CDI rate and liability positions in derivatives (currency hedge and IPCA) pegged to floating interest rates (CDI).
To reduce exposure to the floating interest rate (CDI), the Company and its subsidiaries invested cash equivalents of R$6,733,450 and R$6,542,862 on September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively, mostly in short-term CDI-based financial investments (CDBs). The carrying amounts of these instruments approximate their fair values, as they may be redeemed in the short term.
31.d.3. Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk arises from the possibility that the Company may not having sufficient funds to meet its commitments due to the different timing and settlement terms of its rights and obligations.
The Company structures the maturities of financial instruments to manage their liquidity.
The Company's cash flow and liquidity are managed on a daily basis by the operating departments to ensure that cash flows and contracted funding, when necessary, are sufficient to meet scheduled commitments in to mitigate liquidity risk.
The maturity profile of consolidated financial liabilities includes future principal and interest amounts up to the maturity date. For fixed rate liabilities, interest was calculated based on the indices established in each contract. For floating rate liabilities, interest was calculated based on the market forecast for each period.
In order to minimize liquidity risk and ensure compliance with obligations, the Company's cash investment policy prioritizes instruments indexed to the CDI (floating rate), with daily liquidity and counterparties whose credit rating and/or balance scorecard indicate low credit risk. In addition, the investment policy establishes diversification limits for counterparties, fortifying the Company's ability to honor its payment commitments.
31.d.4. Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the possibility that the Company may incur losses resulting from difficulties in receiving invoiced amounts for the provision of services and sale of devices and equipment to its B2C and B2B customers and distributor network.

| Three and Nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 | |
| (In thousands of Reais, unless otherwise stated) | |
The credit risk from accounts receivable is diversified and risk minimized by diligent control over the customer base and constant risk analysis. The Company monitors the level of accounts receivable and limits the risk of unpaid bills on an ongoing basis, negating access to its services if the invoice is overdue. For prepaid mobile customers there is no credit risk.
The credit risk from the sale of devices is managed by a conservative policy in granting credit, through modern management methods, which involve the application of credit scoring techniques, analysis of financial statements and information and consultation of commercial databases, in addition to the request for guarantees.
The Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to credit risk arising from their financial investments, letters of guarantee received as collateral for certain transactions and amounts receivable from derivative financial instruments. The Company and its subsidiaries control the credit limit granted to each counterparty and diversify this exposure among top-tier financial institutions, in accordance with the current counterparty credit policy.
31.d.5. Insurance Coverage
The policy of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as the Telefónica Group, is to contract insurance coverage for all significant high-risk assets and liabilities based on Management's judgment and following Telefónica corporate program guidelines.
On September 30, 2025, the maximum limits of claims (established pursuant to the agreements of each entity consolidated by the Company) for significant assets, liabilities or interests covered by insurance and their respective total R$900,000 for operational risks (including business interruption) and R$75,000 for general civil liability.
Management considers the insurance coverage to be sufficient to cover any potential claims.

If the Company or its business partners are unable to comply with current and future legal requirements, or identify and manage new or existing environmental liabilities, it will may incur significant costs, which include investigation and remediation costs, indemnities, compensation, adjustment of conduct, fines, suspension of activities and other penalties, investments to improve facilities or change operations, in addition to damage to the Company's reputation in the market.
The identification of new relevant environmental issues, changes in assessment criteria by regulatory agencies, more restrictive laws and regulations or other unforeseen events may result in significant environmental liabilities and their respective costs. The occurrence of any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Pursuant to article 75 of Law No. 9,605/1998, the maximum fine for non-compliance with the environmental law is R$50,000 plus losses related to embargoes or administrative sanctions, in addition to indemnities and repairs for damages caused to the environment.
Climate change poses a number of potential systemic risks (environmental, financial and socioeconomic) to telecommunications operators from both a regulatory and physical perspective. Increased intensity and frequency of extreme events, such as precipitation, cyclones, floods, fires and heat waves, may damage, suspend or interrupt the Company’s transmission operations for an indefinite period. Should a succession of extreme weather events occur, the Company may not have sufficient resources to repair its infrastructure in a timely and cost-effective manner.
In a quantitative analysis, it is noted that the increase in temperature directly affects the operating conditions of the Company's network equipment, which can cause failures, accelerated wear and loss of assets and, therefore, increase the probability of service interruptions, generating reputational and financial risks. For this reason, cooling the equipment is essential to ensure the proper operation of the Company. In more serious cases, the risk of fires can also increase. As a result, global warming can increase demands for cooling and energy use, increasing our operating costs.
The telecommunications sector is not particularly dependent on fossil fuels, but it is dependent on electricity consumption for its networks, so variations in electricity prices are sensitive to the sector and can have a significant impact on the Company's operating expenses related to energy. The estimated economic impact of this risk classifies it as substantive, on the horizon of 2030.
To manage climate risks, the Company performs diagnostics on physical and transition risks, promotes energy efficiency programs and renewable energy and distributed energy generation plans, in addition to having a dedicated business continuity area, guided by the Global Business Continuity Regulation (“GBC”), which is responsible for ensuring that the company is prepared to face unforeseen events, minimize impacts and maintain the continuity of operations in adverse situations.
34.b. Compliance
The Company is subject to compliance with Brazilian legislation related to combating corruption, in particular Law No. 12,846/2013 and Decree No. 11,129/2022, as well as foreign legislation in the jurisdictions in which it operates as a securities issuer and securities, more specifically the US Foreign Corrupt Practice Act (FCPA) of 1977.
Violations of legislation aimed at combating corruption may result in financial penalties, damage to reputation and other legal consequences that may negatively affect the Company's activities, the results of its operations or its financial condition.
