interest on capital financial
"The proposal for a declaration of interest on capital by the Company (“IoC”) was approved"
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.
mandatory minimum dividend financial
"The net amount of the IoC will be allocated to the mandatory minimum dividend for fiscal year ending December 31, 2026"
Share Buyback Program financial
"Given the Company’s Share Buyback Program in effect, the value per share may be subject to change"
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 be considered “ex-IoC”."
balance sheet financial
"approved, based on the balance sheet of March 31, 2026, in the gross amount of R$365,000,000.00"
A balance sheet is a financial statement that shows what a company owns and owes at a specific moment in time. It lists assets (things of value like cash and equipment) and liabilities (debts or obligations), with the difference called shareholders' equity. For investors, it provides a snapshot of the company's financial health, helping them assess its stability and ability to grow.

What is the record date for Telefônica Brasil (VIV) interest on capital?

Shareholders recorded in Telefônica Brasil’s register at the end of April 27, 2026 will be entitled to the approved interest on capital. From April 28, 2026 onward, the company’s shares will trade ex-IoC, meaning new buyers will not receive this specific distribution.

When will Telefônica Brasil (VIV) pay the approved interest on capital?

The company plans to pay the approved interest on capital by April 30, 2027. Management will later define the exact payment date. The net amount will count toward Telefônica Brasil’s mandatory minimum dividend for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

The net interest on capital of R$301,125,000.00 will be allocated to Telefônica Brasil’s mandatory minimum dividend for the 2026 fiscal year. Final approval will occur at the Ordinary General Meeting expected in 2027, aligning IoC with regular shareholder distributions.

Can the Telefônica Brasil (VIV) per-share IoC amount change before the record date?

Yes. The per-share interest on capital value was calculated using the March 31, 2026 shareholding position. Because a Share Buyback Program is in effect, the final per-share amount on April 27, 2026 may differ depending on the updated number of shares outstanding.
