The Company recommends that shareholders arrive at the venue at least one (1) hour in advance for registration and access to the AGM.

 

2.2Participation by Submission of the Remote Voting Ballot

 

The remote voting ballot must be completed if the shareholder chooses to exercise its voting rights remotely, pursuant to CVM Resolution 81 (the “Remote Voting Ballot”).

In this case, the shareholder who chooses to exercise its voting rights remotely by submitting the Remote Voting Ballot directly to the Company must send the following documents by e-mail to ri@brpartners.com.brto the attention of the Investor Relations Department, with the subject line “BRBI – AGM 2026”, and ensure that the Company receives them no later than four (4) days prior to the date of the AGM, i.e., by March 16, 2026 (inclusive):

2.2 - Operating and Financial Results

 

(a) Results of the Company’s Operations

 

(i) Description of any material components of revenue

 

Below, the Company presents its main revenue lines, which are composed of its four major business segments, as well as the results of the Capital and Other Income account:

 

Investment Banking and Capital Markets: (a) Investment Banking: In this segment, the Company provides financial advisory services to large corporations, including mergers and acquisitions, corporate and debt restructurings, privatizations, strategic partnerships, fundraising, and advisory services to Boards of Directors and Shareholders. The Company has extensive experience in executing highly complex transactions, as well as privatizations and restructuring mandates.

 

(b) Capital Markets: This segment aims to promote financial disintermediation for its clients, generating revenues in the form of service fees through the origination, structuring, and distribution of debt products, such as debentures, promissory notes, CRIs and CRAs (Real Estate and Agribusiness Receivables Certificates), structuring and distribution of real estate investment funds, among other products.

 

Investment Banking and Capital Markets  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 
(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Total revenues   304,002    352,818    240,678 

 

Treasury Sales & Structuring: This area provides financial support to the Company’s client base, including strong synergies in serving Investment Banking and Capital Markets clients. In Treasury, the Company seeks to identify business opportunities through close contact with its clients, offering services that facilitate asset and liability management and reduce execution risk. The most common products include interest rate, currency, and commodity derivatives. It is important to note that Treasury is focused on client service execution and does not operate a proprietary trading desk, with very limited exposure risks.

 

Treasury Sales & Structuring  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 
(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Total revenues   86,662    88,332    65,101 

 

Investments e Wealth Management: (a) Investments: This area is responsible for identifying illiquid investment opportunities, preferably assets that can serve as acquisition platforms, have recurring revenue profiles, and growth potential within the Brazilian economy.

 

(b) Wealth Management: Provides wealth advisory services through the allocation of investment resources for high-net-worth clients, managing clients’ entire portfolios. Activities include investment, risk, and tax management, real estate planning, administrative services, and family succession planning.

 

37

 

 

Accordingly, revenues in this segment are represented by management fees from FIP Outlet and FIP Pet, as well as fees related to Wealth Management advisory services.

 

Investments e Wealth Management  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 
(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Total revenues   15,773    12,000    5,968 

 

Capital Remuneration: Includes interest on equity, which represents the internal opportunity cost for remunerating shareholders’ equity, generally determined based on the CDI rate, as well as mark-to-market revenues from FIP Outlet and FIP Pet. Interest on equity is deducted as funding costs directly from the revenues of the Capital Markets and Structured Credit, Treasury Sales & Structuring, and Investments business units, which may utilize such capital. Consequently, these areas present results net of interest on equity. Additionally, this line includes revenues derived from the construction of the Company’s credit portfolio in securities and transition credits.

 

Capital Remuneration  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 
(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Total revenues   124,943    128,069    124,067 

 

The table below summarizes the Company’s total revenues by business line:

 

Consolidated  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 
(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Investment Banking + Capital Markets   304,002    352,818    240,678 
Treasury Sales & Structuring   86,662    88,332    65,101 
Investments + Wealth Management   15,773    12,000    5,968 
Capital Remuneration   124,943    128,069    124,067 
Total Revenues   531,380    581,219    435,813 

 

The Company recorded total revenues of R$531,380 thousand for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, compared to R$581,219 thousand for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, representing a decrease of R$49,840 thousand, or a reduction of 8.6% year-over-year. This decrease was mainly driven by the Investment Banking + Capital Markets segment, which declined by R$48,816 thousand, representing a reduction of 13.8% compared to 2024. This decrease resulted from a volatile economic environment that negatively impacted Investment Banking activity, particularly in mergers and acquisitions advisory services.

 

The Company recorded total revenues of R$581,219 thousand for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, compared to R$435,813 thousand for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, representing an increase of R$145,407 thousand, or growth of 33.4% year-over-year. This growth was primarily driven by the Investment Banking + Capital Markets segment, which increased by R$112,140 thousand, representing growth of 46.6% compared to 2023, due to a more favorable economic environment for operations.

 

For additional information on the Company’s operating segments, see items 1.3 and 1.4 of this Reference Form.

(ii) Factors that materially affected operating results

 

No factors materially affected the Company’s operating results during the last three fiscal years.

 

(b) Relevant variations in revenues attributable to new products and services, volume changes, pricing changes, exchange rates, and inflation

 

Capital Remuneration revenues are directly linked to the basic interest rate (SELIC), as their yield is indexed to the CDI. Therefore, capital remuneration benefits from periods of higher interest rates. The tables below show the growth of this revenue component as a result of the expansion of the Company’s Private Securities and Bridge Loans Portfolio, which amounted to R$13,476.6 million at the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, compared to R$7,882.0 million at the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, representing growth of 70.97% over the period.

(R$ million)  2025   2024   2023 
Total Revenues   124,943    128,069    124,067 

 

Regarding the Company’s other business lines, through its strategy of promoting financial disintermediation of products and services to clients, the Company has been able to maintain the volume and number of transactions in its main business segments, without significant impacts from inflation fluctuations, exchange rate volatility, or the introduction of new products and services, as shown below.

(c) Impact of inflation, changes in prices of key inputs and products, exchange rates, and interest rates on operating and financial results

 

Over the last three fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there were no significant changes in the behavior of the Company’s revenues, inputs, or products caused by inflation fluctuations in the Brazilian economy or changes in the prices of services offered to clients.

 

The increase in the SELIC rate to 13.3% in 2023 boosted capital gains in Other Revenues (“Capital Remuneration”). It also stimulated demand for fixed-income products, despite higher debt costs, directly impacting the development of the Capital Markets area. Additionally, exchange rate volatility supports solid revenues in the Treasury Sales & Structuring segment, as clients seek to hedge their balance sheets through currency derivatives and hedging operations to mitigate asset-liability mismatches. Another relevant consequence of higher interest rates was the deterioration of corporate balance sheets, fostering the Special Situations & Restructuring segment, which focuses on restructuring companies facing financial distress. In 2023, interest rates began a new easing cycle, ending the year with a cumulative reduction of 2 percentage points, benefiting companies with higher-cost debt that sought refinancing solutions at lower rates, thereby encouraging Capital Markets activity. In 2024, the average SELIC rate remained below the prior year, averaging 10.9% compared to 13.3% in 2023. This monetary easing favored the Capital Markets segment, with strong investor demand for debt products and companies seeking financing.

 

In 2025, the monetary environment became more restrictive compared to the prior easing period. Throughout the year, monetary policy tightening, marked by increases in the SELIC rate, negatively impacted transaction closings in the Investment Banking area, resulting in lower transaction volumes.

 

By year-end, the SELIC rate reached 15%, characterizing a high interest rate environment throughout 2025 and negatively affecting market activity and the profitability of the Company’s operations.

 

Regarding the Company’s liabilities, as disclosed in item 2.1 of this Reference Form, the Company maintains high liquidity and low leverage, with shareholders’ equity as the main component of its liabilities. Therefore, abrupt fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates are expected to have a very limited effect on the Company’s financial results.

(c) reasons why management believes these measures are more appropriate for understanding financial condition and operating results

 

Client Revenue:

 

The Company believes that Client Revenue is an appropriate measure to assess revenues generated by business lines that involve direct delivery of services to clients. Accordingly, it provides a meaningful way to evaluate the performance of this category of revenue.

 

Return on Equity (ROE):

 

The Company believes that ROE is a widely used indicator among analysts and investors in the financial industry, as it measures the Company’s profitability for a given period by calculating the percentage return (profit) generated in relation to the Company’s shareholders’ equity during that period.

 

Efficiency Ratio:

 

The Efficiency Ratio is an indicator used by analysts, investors in the financial industry, and management to assess how efficiently the Company generates revenues while controlling expenses. Accordingly, a lower ratio indicates better performance, as it reflects the Company’s ability to generate higher revenues at lower costs, resulting in greater efficiency.

 

46

 

 

Compensation Ratio:

 

The Compensation Ratio is a measure widely used by investors, analysts, and management in financial advisory–focused companies, such as the Company’s subsidiaries. Companies in this sector typically pay higher levels of compensation based on revenues generated by specific business areas or individuals. This ratio allows investors to assess whether management compensation, as a percentage of revenues generated, is proportionate or disproportionate.

 

Net Margin:

 

The Company believes that Net Margin is an appropriate non-accounting measure, as it indicates the Company’s level of efficiency by comparing net income to Total Revenues, highlighting the percentage of total revenues that resulted in net income.

 

Expanded Credit Portfolio of BR Partners Banco de Investimentos S.A.:

 

The Expanded Credit Portfolio of BR Partners Banco de Investimentos S.A., a subsidiary of the Company, is a metric that considers fixed-income securities structured by the Capital Markets area and acquired by the subsidiary. It is an appropriate measure to demonstrate the evolution of the portfolio of securities and loans that impact net interest income and gains (losses) on financial instruments within the Capital Markets area.

ANNEX V – INFORMATION FROM SECTION 8 OF THE REFERENCE FORM

 

(pursuant to Article 13, item II, of CVM Resolution No. 81/22)

 

8.1 - Compensation Policy or Practice

 

(a) Objectives of the compensation policy or practice, indicating whether the compensation policy was formally approved, the body responsible for its approval, and, if the issuer discloses the policy, the locations on the worldwide web where the document may be consulted.

 

The Company did not have a compensation policy in effect in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. On July 20, 2020, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Company’s compensation policy was approved and has since been reviewed from time to time by the Company’s People and Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Policy”). The Company has chosen not to disclose its Compensation Policy.

 

The Compensation Policy establishes the guidelines to be observed with respect to the compensation of the members of the Board of Directors, the Executive Officers, the members of the Fiscal Council (when installed), and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Compensation Policy highlights that: (i) the pro labore of any officer of the Company and/or its subsidiaries shall be determined by the Compensation Committee; and (ii) the maximum initial monthly salary for the hiring of any employee of the Company and/or its subsidiaries shall be R$ 25,000.00.

 

The objectives of the Compensation Policy are:

 

(i)to measure and manage the individual performance of each member of the Company’s management, its subsidiaries, as well as the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, in line with the Company’s strategies and objectives; and

 

(ii)to ensure the quality and commitment of the members of the Company’s management and its subsidiaries, as well as the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, ensuring adequate levels of attraction, retention and motivation, thereby increasing participation in the creation of value for the BR Partners Group.

 

Additionally, the Company’s Compensation Policy establishes, as the annual cap for total compensation of officers and employees, a limit corresponding to 30% of the Compensation Index for the year.

 

105

 

 

(b) Practices and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors to determine the individual compensation of the members of the Board of Directors and the Executive Officers, indicating:

 

(i) Bodies and committees that participate in the decision-making process and how they participate

 

The Board of Directors aims to establish the compensation policies and guidelines for the Directors and Executive Officers of the Company, its subsidiaries, and the other employees of the Company’s economic group, based on the performance targets established by the Board of Directors and/or by the management of the Company’s subsidiaries, as applicable. The Board of Directors is responsible for the supervision, implementation, operationalization and review of the Compensation Policy, governing its activities and functions in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable laws and regulations.Accordingly, the Board of Directors shall:

 

i.annually review the Compensation Policy, in order to ensure, among other things, that the policy is compatible with the Company’s risk management structure, strategy and values, recommending its correction or improvement, as necessary;

 

ii.annually propose the aggregate amount of the Company’s management compensation to be submitted to the Annual General Meeting, pursuant to Article 152 of Law No. 6,404/76;

 

iii.assess future scenarios, both internal and external, and their possible impacts on the Compensation Policy;

 

iv.analyze the compensation policies of the Company’s subsidiaries’ management in relation to market practices, with a view to identifying significant discrepancies in comparison with the market and proposing the necessary adjustments; and

 

v.ensure that the Compensation Policy and the compensation policies of its subsidiaries remain permanently compatible with the Company’s management policy, as well as with the current and future goals and financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries;

 

(ii) Criteria and methodology used to set individual compensation

 

The compensation of the Company’s Officers and Directors is established based on market surveys and individual performance, in accordance with the principle of aligning the interests of management with the interests of the Company.

 

Previously agreed performance indicators are taken into consideration in determining each component of management compensation, primarily established through individual goals in accordance with the competency and performance scale adopted by the organization.

 

In addition to the assessment of the achievement of their specific goals, each officer and director is also evaluated based on the principles adopted by the Company, namely:

 

i.strategic focus;

 

ii.people (partnership mindset, teamwork, hard-working and hands-on approach, and talent development); and

 

iii.performance-based management (meritocracy, entrepreneurship, excellence, and focus on results and costs).

 

The calculation of compensation takes into account market compensation levels, the competitive positioning of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as the professional qualifications and technical expertise of the officer or director.

 

106

 

 

Monitoring of compensation practices in the market is carried out through salary surveys conducted with institutions of similar size and with the same business focus as the Company’s subsidiaries, using as an input for internal decision-making the percentage variation in compensation across the different management positions within the organization (e.g., executive officer, member of the board of directors, etc.).

 

(iii) Frequency and manner in which the Board of Directors assesses the adequacy of the compensation policy

 

The Board of Directors reviews the Compensation Policy on an annual basis, recommending, whenever necessary, its correction or enhancement.

 

(c) Composition of compensation

 

(i) Description of the various elements that comprise compensation

 

Executive Officers

 

The compensation of the members of the Company’s statutory executive officers and non-statutory executive officers currently consists of fixed compensation, variable compensation, subject to the achievement of individual and collective goals, and share-based compensation, as described in item 8.4 of this Reference Form.

 

Fixed compensation of the Executive Officers

 

The fixed compensation of statutory and non-statutory executive officers comprises: (i) a base salary or pro labore, intended to compensate for the services rendered, in line with general market conditions; and (ii) general benefits, including medical assistance, meal vouchers and food vouchers, intended to offer an attractive benefits package consistent with general market practices.

 

Variable compensation of the Executive Officers

 

The variable compensation of statutory and non-statutory executive officers consists of the payment of bonuses to executives, with the purpose of directing their actions toward the achievement of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ short-term strategic plans, in order to meet the interests of the Company’s investors, clients and other stakeholders, and is subject to the achievement of individual and collective targets.

 

Board of Directors

 

The compensation of the members of the Board of Directors currently consists of fixed compensation and variable compensation.

 

Fixed compensation of the Board of Directors

 

The fixed compensation of the Board of Directors comprises the base pro labore, intended to remunerate the services rendered, in accordance with general market conditions.

 

107

 

 

Variable compensation of the Board of Directors

 

AThe variable compensation of the Board of Directors consists of the payment of bonuses to members of the Board of Directors, with the purpose of directing their actions toward the achievement of the Company’s and/or its subsidiaries’ strategic plans, in order to meet the interests of the Company’s investors, clients and other stakeholders, based on the Company’s results.

 

The tables below present the proportion of each element in the composition of total compensation for the last three fiscal years:

Some members of the Company’s Board of Directors and Executive Officers were partially compensated by the Company. Such members also held management positions in the Company’s subsidiaries during the same period and received part of their compensation directly from such subsidiaries. The tables above include the amounts paid by the Company and its subsidiaries. Certain members of the Board of Directors are also members of the Executive Board, and the compensation of such members is included in the compensation of the Board of Directors.

 

Methodology for calculating and adjusting each element of compensation

 

The Board of Directors is the body responsible for evaluating compensation adjustments. In order to establish the compensation of the members of the statutory Executive Officers, non-statutory Executive Officers and the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors conducts periodic market surveys to assess whether the criteria and conditions related to the compensation offered are satisfactory and whether they allow the achievement of the objectives of each compensation component of such bodies, as described in item (i) above. Based on such surveys and on the Company’s compensation policies and incentive plans, the Board of Directors establishes the compensation amounts of the Company’s governing bodies and their respective periodic adjustments, whenever deemed necessary. In addition to the analysis of market salary movements presented by salary and benefits surveys, as described above, the compensation amounts of the Company’s management may also be adjusted based on official inflation indices.

Board of Directors:

 

The performance indicators considered in determining the compensation of the members of the Board of Directors, whether fixed or variable, when applicable, are essentially based on the achievement of individual goals, in accordance with the competency and results scale adopted by the organization. The following criteria are taken into account: (i) strategic focus (customer focus, presence and long-term global thinking); (ii) people (partnership mindset, teamwork, hard-working and hands-on approach, and talent development); (iii) performance-based management (meritocracy, entrepreneurship, excellence, and focus on results and costs); and (iv) achievement of goals.

 

Executive Officers:

 

The performance indicators considered in determining the compensation of the members of the Executive Board, whether fixed or variable, when applicable, are also essentially based on the achievement of individual goals, in accordance with the competency and results scale adopted by the organization. The following criteria are taken into account: (i) strategic focus (customer focus, presence and long-term global thinking); (ii) people (partnership mindset, teamwork, hard-working and hands-on approach, and talent development) ;(iii) performance-based management (meritocracy, entrepreneurship, excellence, and focus on results and costs); and (iv) achievement of goals.

 

(iv) Reasons justifying the composition of compensation

 

The reasons justifying the composition of the compensation paid to the Company’s management are the pursuit of qualified professionals, incentives to improve management performance, and the retention of executives, aiming at gains derived from commitment to short- and long-term results.

 

The Company recognizes the growing importance of ESG criteria in management and performance evaluation and believes that integrating such indicators into variable compensation practices is an important step toward aligning management interests with long-term sustainable objectives. The formal implementation of ESG indicators linked to variable compensation in the Company’s compensation policy or practice has not yet been adopted. However, the Company applies governance and performance evaluation practices that indirectly consider ESG aspects, although such criteria have not yet been formally incorporated into its compensation policy.

 

(v) Unpaid members

 

Not applicable. All members of the Company’s management receive their compensation, in whole or in part, from the Company. Members of the Board of Directors and Executive Officers who do not receive their entire fixed compensation directly from the Company receive it through Company-controlled subsidiaries in which they also hold management positions.

 

(d) Existence of compensation borne by subsidiaries or direct or indirect controlling entities

 

With the exception of the Company’s independent directors and the Investor Relations Officer, the other members of the Company’s management receive part of their compensation from the respective subsidiaries of the Company in which they also perform management functions. For information regarding the amounts borne by the Company’s subsidiaries, please refer to item 8.19 of this Reference Form.

 

(e) Existence of any compensation or benefit linked to the occurrence of a specific corporate event, such as a change of control of the issuer
