In 2025, the Tax Reform was regulated by Complementary Law No. 214 for Brazilian entities, which establishes the gradual replacement of current taxes by the Goods and Services Tax (IBS) and the Contribution on Goods and Services (CBS). Considering that the transition period is expected to begin in 2026, Management has assessed that there are no material impacts to be recognized in the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Management continues to perform assessments of the potential impacts of the Tax Reform on its operations, including tax, accounting and operational aspects, as well as to evaluate and implement the necessary system and process adjustments to ensure the Company’s appropriate adaptation to the new tax framework. |
