Interest on Capital financial
"approved the declaration of Interest on Capital (“IoC”), pursuant to Article 26"
Interest on capital is the cost a business pays for using money — either money it borrowed or funds provided by owners — and functions like rent paid for that capital. It matters to investors because higher interest payments reduce profits and cash available for dividends or growth, while lower interest costs leave more profit and improve company value; think of it as the price of fueling a company’s operations.
withholding income tax financial
"withholding income tax at the rate of 17.5%, resulting in a net amount"
Share Buyback Program financial
"due to possible acquisitions of shares under the current Company's Share Buyback Program"
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.
ex-IoC financial
"After this date, the shares will trade as “ex-IoC”."
Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting regulatory
"ad referendum of the Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting to be held in 2027"
CVM Resolution 143/2022 regulatory
"pursuant to Article 26 of the Company’s Bylaws, Article 9 of Law 9,249/95 and CVM Resolution 143/2022"

How much interest on capital per share will VIV shareholders receive?

Shareholders are entitled to R$0.11421932485 gross and R$0.09423094300 net per share. The net figure reflects a 17.5% withholding income tax rate, applied to the gross interest on capital declared by Telefônica Brasil’s board on April 15, 2026.

What record date applies to Telefônica Brasil’s April 2026 interest on capital?

The shareholding position at the end of April 27, 2026 determines entitlement to this interest on capital. After this date, Telefônica Brasil’s shares will trade ex-IoC, meaning new buyers will not receive this specific distribution declared on April 15, 2026.

When will Telefônica Brasil pay the declared interest on capital?

The company plans to pay the interest on capital by April 30, 2027. The exact payment date will be set by Telefônica Brasil’s Executive Board, and the amount will be treated as part of 2026 mandatory dividends, pending shareholder approval in 2027.

How does the 17.5% withholding tax affect VIV’s interest on capital?

A standard 17.5% withholding income tax is applied to the R$365,000,000.00 gross amount, resulting in net proceeds of R$301,125,000.00. Certain shareholders may qualify for different tax treatment under international treaties, exemptions, or special regimes, subject to documentation.

Can Telefônica Brasil’s interest-on-capital amount per share change?

The company notes the per-share interest-on-capital amount may be adjusted as of April 27, 2026. This reflects potential share acquisitions under Telefônica Brasil’s existing Share Buyback Program, which could alter the total number of shares entitled to the distribution.
