Report on review of interim condensed consolidated financial information

To the Shareholders and Management of
StoneCo Ltd.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of StoneCo Ltd. (the “Company”) as at June 30, 2026 which comprise the interim consolidated statement of financial position as at June 30, 2026 and the related interim consolidated statements of profit or loss and of other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six-months periods then ended, changes in equity and cash flows for the six months period then ended and explanatory notes.
Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed consolidated financial information in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed consolidated financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity.
A review of interim financial 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 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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian Reais (“R$”), and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (R$ 000), except when otherwise indicated.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025.
The accounting policies adopted in this interim reporting period are consistent with those of the previous financial year.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were approved by the Audit Committee on August 12, 2026.
2.2.    Estimates
The preparation of the Group’s interim financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates and to adopt assumptions that affect the amounts presented of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities at the financial statement date. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are frequently revised, and any effects are recognized in the revision period and in any future affected periods. The objective of these revisions is mitigating the risk of material differences between the estimated and actual results in the future.
In preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments and estimates made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those from the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

2.3. New standards and amendments to standards and interpretations adopted
Annual Improvements to IFRS accounting Standards – Volume 11: In July 2024, IASB issued nine narrow scope amendments as part of its periodic maintenance of IFRS accounting standards. The amendments include clarifications, simplifications, corrections or changes to improve consistency in IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS 7 Financial instruments: Disclosure and its accompanying Guidance on implementing IFRS 7, IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 7 Statements of Cash Flows.
IFRS 9 - Financial instruments and IFRS 7 - Financial instruments: Disclosures: On 30 May 2024, IASB issued Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments which amended IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures (the “Amendments”). The Amendments provide additional guidance and clarity on the following specific matters: date of recognition and write-off of financial instruments and significant characteristics in the assessment of sole payments of principal and interest (“SPPI Test”) for financial assets, and guidance on the assessment of contractual cash flows for financial assets with environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) and similar features. In addition, the amendments add disclosures relating to equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial instruments linked to contingent events.
The application of these accounting standards as of January 1, 2026, had no significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of unlisted equity instruments was estimated based on the price of the most recent observable transactions involving the investees’ shares, adjusted, when applicable, for changes in the investees’ performance and in market conditions through the reporting rate. No observable transactions occurred during six month period ended June 30, 2026, therefore management concluded that no adjustment to the carrying amount was required. Accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized in the statement of profit or loss (loss of R$ 11,790 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which was recognized in the statement of profit or loss).
(b)Comprised of foreign investment fund shares.

5.2.    Accounts receivable from card issuers and accounts payable to clients
5.2.1.    Composition of accounts receivable from card issuers
Accounts receivable are amounts due from card issuers and acquirers for the transactions of clients with card holders, performed in the ordinary course of business.

(a)Accounts receivable from card issuers, net of interchange fees, as a result of processing transactions with clients.
(b)Accounts receivable from other acquirers related to PSP (Payment Service Provider) transactions.
(c)The scenarios considered in developing our estimate of the losses depend on a series of variables beyond the control of the Group. Such variables include, among others, the level of collections from cardholders of the card issuers, how those amounts collected are distributed to the relevant parties, any credit enhancement or proceeds that might be provided to the Group by the card schemes. Considering the different variables and considering all information available at the date of these financial statements we take into account reasonable variable scenarios and allocate probabilities to each of them. Due to the nature of the estimates, there is significant judgment beyond them and, as such, changes in circumstances and the information available to us may result in changes in the estimates that might be significant. Ultimate losses may differ from our current estimates.
Part of the Group’s cash requirement is to make prepayments to acquiring customers. The Group finances those requirements through different sources of funding including the true sale of receivables to third parties. When such sales of receivables are carried out to entities in which the Group has subordinated shares or quotas, the receivables sold remain in the statement of financial position, as these entities are consolidated in the financial statements. As of June 30, 2026 a total of R$ 2,419,244 were consolidated through Fundo de Investimento em Direitos Creditórios ACR I (“FIDC ACR I”) (December 31, 2025 R$ 2,670,380 through FIDC ACR I and R$ 441,323 through Fundo de Investimento em Direitos Creditórios ACR Fast), of which the Group has subordinated shares. When the sale of receivables is carried out to non-controlled entities and for transactions where continuous involvement is not present, the amounts transferred are derecognized from the accounts receivable from card issuers. As of June 30, 2026, the sale of receivables that were derecognized from accounts receivable from card issuers in the statement of financial position represents one of the funding sources used for the prepayment transaction.
Accounts receivable held by FIDCs guarantee the obligations to FIDC quota holders.
5.2.2.    Accounts payable to clients
Accounts payable to clients represent amounts due to accredited clients related to credit and debit card transactions, net of interchange fees retained by card issuers and assessment fees paid to payment scheme networks as well as the Group’s net merchant discount rate fees which are collected by the Group as an agent.

(a)The Group holds a portfolio of fixed-rate credit transactions exposed to market risk from fluctuations in the Brazilian interest rates. To mitigate this risk, fixed-for-floating interest rate swaps were entered into to protect the fair value of the portfolio against rates variations. These swaps are designated as fair value hedge accounting and, as a result, the interest rate risk of the credit transactions is marked to market against profit or loss. The portfolio is dynamically managed, with swap positions adjusted to reflect changes, including prepayment risk.

5.4.3.    Gross carrying amount
The Group calculates an expected credit loss allowance for its loans based on statistical models that consider both internal and external historical data, negative credit information and guarantees, including information that addresses the behavior of each debtor. The Group divides its credit portfolio in three stages:
(i)Stage 1: corresponds to loans that do not present significant increase in credit risk since origination, and expected credit loss (“ECL") are determined considering probability of default events within 12 months window;
(ii)Stage 2: corresponds to loans that presented significant increase in credit risk subsequent to origination and ECL are estimated considering probability of default events within the life of the financial instrument;
The Group determines Stage 2 based on the following criteria:
(a)absolute criteria: financial asset overdue more than 30 days, or;
(b)relative criteria: in addition to the absolute criteria, the Group analyzes the evolution of the risk of each financial instrument on a monthly basis, comparing the current behavior score attributed to each client with that attributed at the time of recognition of the financial asset. Behavioral scoring considers credit behavior variables, such as default on other products and market data about the customer. When the credit risk increases significantly since origination, the Stage 1 operation is moved to Stage 2.
For Stage 2, a cure criterion is applied when the financial asset no longer meets the criteria for a significant increase in credit risk, as mentioned above, and the loan is moved to Stage 1.
(iii)Stage 3: corresponds to impaired loans.
The Group determines Stage 3 based on the following criteria:
(a)absolute criteria: financial asset overdue more than 90 days, or;
(b)relative criteria: indicators that the financial asset will not be paid in full without enforcing either a collateral or financial guarantee.
The indication that an obligation will not be paid in full includes the tolerance of financial instruments that imply the granting of advantages to the counterparty following the deterioration of the counterparty's credit quality.
The Group also assumes a cure criterion for Stage 3, with respect to the counterparty's repayment capacity, such as the percentage of total debt paid or the time limit to liquidate current debt obligations.
Management regularly seeks forward-looking perspectives for future market developments including macroeconomic scenarios as well as its portfolio risk profile. Management may adjust the ECL resulting from the models above in order to better reflect these forward-looking perspectives.

5.7.1. Economic hedge
The Group engages in certain hedging transactions to mitigate specific financial risks, such as fluctuations in foreign currencies and interest rates. Some of these transactions are not formally designated for hedge accounting.
Although these derivatives are used to manage economic risks, changes in their fair value are recognized directly in profit or loss for the period without the application of the specific accounting treatments of hedge accounting. This means that the gains and losses generated by these instruments are fully accounted for in profit or loss as they occur, reflecting changes in the fair value of the derivatives.
The decision not to apply hedge accounting to these transactions is due to considerations such as the administrative cost of the formal documentation required by hedge accounting standards, the nature of the instruments, or the desired operational flexibility. Nevertheless, the Group continues monitoring these instruments to ensure their use aligns with the overall risk management strategy.
5.7.2. Hedge accounting
5.7.2.1. Cash flow hedge
The Group enters into derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to foreign exchange and interest rate risks.
The Group applies cash flow hedge accounting when the hedging relationship meets the requirements outlined in the applicable accounting standards, including the provision of appropriate documentation at inception and the expectation that the hedge will be highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to the hedged risk throughout the life of the hedge.
The Group continuously assesses whether the hedging relationship continues to meet the effectiveness requirements.
Changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument are recognized in other comprehensive income (and deferred in equity), to the extent the hedge is effective. Any ineffectiveness in a hedge is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Amounts deferred in equity are reclassified to profit or loss when the hedged item affects profit or loss (e.g., through the accrual of interest or the remeasurement of the hedged item at spot rate on the reporting date).
5.7.2.2. Fair value hedge
The Group applies fair value hedge accounting to protect against changes in the fair value of assets or liabilities arising from exposure to specific risks, such as changes in foreign exchange rates or interest rates. In accordance with IFRS, changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and the hedged item attributable to the designated hedged risk are recognized directly in profit or loss for the period. This allows gains or losses on the hedging instrument to offset, in whole or in part, the losses or gains on the hedged item.    
For a fair value hedge to be accounted as a hedge accounting, the hedging relationship must meet specific criteria, such as formal documentation of the hedging objective and evidence that the hedge is highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged item's fair value over time.
The Group conducts regular effectiveness tests to ensure the hedging relationship remains effective. Any hedge ineffectiveness is immediately recognized in profit or loss for the period.

(a)Listed securities are classified as Level I and unlisted securities classified as Level II, determining fair value using valuation techniques, which employ the use of market observable inputs.
(b)Sovereign bonds are priced using quotations from Brazilian Association of Financial and Capital Market Entities (“Anbima”) public pricing method.
(c)For accounts receivable from card issuers measured at FVOCI, fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using market rates for similar items.
(d)The Group enters into derivative financial instruments with financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Derivative financial instruments are valued using valuation techniques, which employ the use of observable market inputs.
(e)For Other debt instruments, fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using contract rates for funding items and using market value of senior quotas liabilities.
(f)These are contingent considerations included in Other liabilities arising on business combinations that are measured at FVPL. Fair values are estimated in accordance with pre-determined formulas explicit in the contracts with selling shareholders. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration categorized as Level III of the fair value hierarchy are based on projections of revenue, net debt, number of clients, net margin and the discount rates used to evaluate the liability.
(g)The Group issued put options for Reclame Aqui’s non-controlling interests, in the 2022 business combination. For the non-controlling shareholder amounts the Group has elected as an accounting policy that the put options derecognized the non-controlling interests at each reporting date as if it was acquired at that date and recognize a financial liability at the present value of the amount payable on exercise of the non-controlling interests put option. The difference between the financial liability and the non-controlling interests derecognized at each period is recognized as an equity transaction. The amount of R$ 180,407 was recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position as of June 30, 2026 as a financial liability under Other liabilities (December 31, 2025 - R$ 170,299).
In the six month period ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no transfers between level I and level II and between level II and level III fair value measurements.
5.10.2.    Fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value

8.    Income taxes
The Company is headquartered in the Cayman Islands and there is no income tax in that jurisdiction. Some of the income earned by the Company is related to transactions abroad which are subject to a 15% rate of withholding tax.
8.1. Reconciliation of income tax expense
Considering the fact that the Company is an entity located in the Cayman Islands which has no income tax, for the purpose of the following reconciliation of income tax expense to profit (loss) for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, as Brazil is the jurisdiction in which most of the Group’s transactions takes place, the combined Brazilian statutory income tax rate at 35.50% was applied. The statutory rate has been computed as the average of the statutory rates effective during each month of the period.
In Brazil such combined rate is applied, in general, to all entities and comprises the Corporate IRPJ and CSLL on the taxable income of each Brazilian legal entity (not on a consolidated basis).

(a)Complementary Law No. 224/2025 provided for an increase in the CSLL rates applicable to Stone IP and Stone SCD from 9% to 12% for the period from April 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027, and to 15% effective January 1, 2028. For Stone SCFI, the CSLL rate will increase from 15% to 17.5% for the period from April 1, 2026 to December 31, 2027, and to 20% effective January 1, 2028. This results in a total Brazilian income tax rate for our key businesses of 34% up to March 31, 2026, 37% as from April 1, 2026, and 40% as from January 1, 2028.

8.3.    Unrecognized deferred taxes
The Group has accumulated tax loss carryforwards and other temporary differences in some subsidiaries in the amount of R$ 144,421 (December 31, 2025 – R$ 1,431,023) for which a deferred tax asset was not recognized and are available indefinitely for offsetting against future taxable profits to the companies in which the losses arose. Deferred tax assets have not been recognized with respect of these losses as they cannot be used to offset taxable profits between subsidiaries of the Group, and there is no other evidence of recoverability in the near future. In the six month period ended June 30, 2026, R$ 1,242,596 of temporary differences on goodwill were recognized considering the Group’s current ability and expectations to recover them considering their tax amortization period.

12.1.1.    Civil lawsuits
In general, provisions and contingencies arise from claims related to lawsuits of a similar nature, with individual amounts that are not considered significant. The nature of the civil litigations is categorized according to the primary business fronts of the Company. Substantial provisions are specifically summarized in two of these business domains, namely (i) acquiring, totaling R$ 21,701 as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 21,036) and (ii) banking, totaling R$ 15,210 as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 12,954).
The Group was involved in a securities class action related to its former credit product. The class action concluded with a settlement of R$ 145,294, of which R$ 96,618 was covered by insurers, and the full settlement amount has been paid during first quarter of 2026. Certain investors have filed an opt-out action in the Southern District of New York. The Group has moved to dismiss the opt-out action, among other reasons, on the grounds that it attempts to revive claims that were dismissed in the class action.
12.1.2.    Labor claims
In the context of Labor Courts, the Group encounters recurrent lawsuits, primarily falling in two categories: (i) labor claims by former employees and (ii) labor claims brought forth by former employees of outsourced companies contracted by the Group. These claims commonly center around issues such as the claimant’s placement in a different trade union and payment of overtime. The initial value of these lawsuits is asserted by the former employees at the commencement of the legal proceeding.
12.2.    Possible losses, not provided for in the statement of financial position
The Group is party to the following civil, labor and tax litigation involving risks of loss assessed by management as possible, based on the evaluation of the legal advisors, for which no provision for estimated possible losses was recognized:

12.2.1.    Civil lawsuits
The Group is a party to several legal actions whose subjects are connected to its ordinary operations. Substantial contingencies are specifically summarized in two business domains: (i) software, amounting to R$ 36,356 as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 35,240); and (ii) acquiring, amounting to R$ 9,074 as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 8,801), Software business contingencies include those related to the Linx business before its sale. For the software domain, there is a significant indemnity lawsuit filed by an indirect supplier, for the utilization of a specific software provided by the partner, amounting to R$ 28,957 as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 27,956).
12.2.2.    Labor claims
The Group frequently receives lawsuits through the labor courts, primarily for two categories: (i) labor claims by former employees and (ii) labor claims by former employees of outsourced companies contracted by the Group (as a secondary obligor). These claims typically revolve around matters such as the claimant’s placement in a different trade union and payment of overtime. An initial value of these lawsuits is claimed by the former employees at the beginning of the proceeding. The actual amounts of possible contingencies when disbursed correspond to a fraction of the amount initially requested by the claimants – this lower fraction is calculated based on the Group’s track record of losses, considering similar cases. As the lawsuits progress, the reported risk amount may change, particularly following new court decisions.
12.2.3 Tax litigations
Between 2022 and 2026, the Group received tax assessments issued by a municipal tax authority relating to the allegedly insufficient payment of tax on services rendered. As of June 30, 2026, the updated amount is R$ 277,976 (December 31, 2025 - R$ 265,816). The cases are classified as possible loss.
12.3.    Judicial deposits
For certain contingencies, the Group has made judicial escrow deposits, which are legal reserves the Group is required to make by the Brazilian courts as security for any damages or settlements the Group may be required to pay as a result of litigation.
The amount of the judicial deposits as of June 30, 2026 is R$20,152 (December 31, 2025 - R$16,652), which are included in Other assets in non-current assets.
13.    Equity
13.1    Issued capital

The Company is authorized to increase capital up to this limit, subject to approval of the Board of Directors. The liability of each member is limited to the amount from time to time unpaid on such member’s shares.

13.2.    Subscribed and paid-in capital and capital reserve
The Articles of Association provide that at any time when there are Class A common shares issued, Class B common shares may only be issued pursuant to: (a) a share split, subdivision or similar transaction or as contemplated in the Articles of Association; or (b) a business combination involving the issuance of Class B common shares as full or partial consideration. A business combination, as defined in the Articles of Association, would include, amongst other things, a statutory amalgamation, merger, consolidation, arrangement or other reorganization.
The additional paid-in capital refers to the difference between the purchase price that the shareholders pay for the shares and their par value. Under Cayman Islands Law, the balance in this type of account may be applied by the Company to pay distributions or dividends to members, pay up unissued shares to be issued as fully paid, for redemptions and repurchases of own shares, for writing off preliminary expenses, recognized expenses, commissions or for other reasons. All distributions are subject to the Cayman Islands Solvency Test which addresses the Company’s ability to pay debts as they fall due in the natural course of business.

14.    Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the period attributed to the controlling shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share considers the number of shares outstanding for the purposes of basic earnings plus (when dilutive) the number of potentially issuable shares.
All numbers of shares for the purpose of earnings per share are the weighted average during each period presented.
14.1.    Numerator of earnings per share
In determining the numerator of basic and diluted EPS, earnings attributable to the Group is allocated as follows:

15.    Revenue and income
15.1.    Timing of revenue recognition
Net revenue from transaction activities and other services and discount fees charged for the prepayment of accounts payable to clients are recognized at a point in time, except for membership fees which are recognized over time. All other revenue and income are recognized over time.
The Group has recognized revenue to membership fees in the amount of R$ 81,634 in the six months ended June 30, 2026 (R$ 123,131 six months ended June 30, 2025).
Net revenue from transaction activities and other services includes membership fee mentioned above and R$ 23,525 of registry business fee in the six months ended June 30, 2026 (R$ 28,578 in six months ended June 30, 2025).
15.2. Seasonality of operations
The Group’s revenues are subject to seasonal fluctuations as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically, revenues have been strongest during the last quarter of the year as a result of higher sales during the Brazilian holiday season. This is due to the increase in the number and amount of electronic payment transactions related to seasonal retail events. Adverse events that occur during these months could have a disproportionate effect on the results of operations for the entire fiscal year. As a result of seasonal fluctuations caused by these and other factors, results for an interim period may not be indicative of those expected for the full fiscal year.

20. Disposal group classified as held for sale and discontinued operations
In the second quarter of 2025, the Group entered into two separate agreements to sell Linx Sistemas e Consultoria Ltda (“Linx Sistemas”) and certain other software assets (“Software Businesses"), and SimplesVet Tecnologia S.A. (“Simplesvet”), resulting in the classification of both businesses as held for sale. The transactions have also been classified as discontinued operations. Therefore, the statement of profit or loss presents the net results of continuing and discontinued operations separately for each period presented, with prior periods reclassified accordingly.
The entities comprised in the Software Businesses are listed below:

20.1. Software Businesses and Simplesvet
In the second quarter of 2025, the Board of Directors approved the plan to sell Software Businesses and Simplesvet. Both sales were expected to be completed within a year from the reporting date so were classified as a disposal group held for sale. These businesses together represent a major part of our Software operating segment and as a result met the requirements to be classified as discontinued operations. The Software segment continues to be one of the segments disclosed in the financial statements comprised of other businesses that do not meet the criteria for either assets held for sale or discontinued operations.
Immediately before the classification of the businesses as discontinued operation and at each reporting date, the recoverable amount was estimated for assets included in the disposal group. An impairment loss of R$ 157,991 was identified as of December 31, 2025 and was recognized as part of discontinued operations.
Estimating the fair value implies assumptions and estimates that require judgment. In estimating such fair value we have considered the terms of the agreements we entered into as well as estimates about expected timing of the disposals which impact the estimated proceeds of the sale and as well as its discount to present value as of the date of the impairment test. While actual date of the disposal may differ from this estimate of fair value we expect any difference will not result in significant effect in the impairment test performed.
In the third quarter of 2025, the agreement to sell Simplesvet was concluded and the sale resulted in a gain of R$ 56,588.
The Software Businesses transaction was approved without restrictions by the Brazilian Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) on January 30, 2026, and closed on February 27, 2026. The total amount received was R$ 3,272,193, and the final accounting effects of the disposal resulted in a loss of R$ 28,717.
The major classes of assets included in the disposal group classified as held for sale as well as the liabilities directly associated with those assets are presented below.

21. Operating segments
The Company evaluates the operational performance of its businesses considering its long-term strategy and the correlation between the operational nature of the services provided. This approach aims to achieve the Group's strategy, which, in addition to financial services, focuses on empowering its clients (entrepreneurs) with the capability to monitor, manage, and scale their own businesses. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Group evaluated its business and reported its results under a single operating segment view.
In March 2026, management reassessed the internal reporting structure used to monitor the Group's operational performance. As a result, the operations were segregated into (i) the results of the financial services businesses and (ii) the results of other businesses considered adjacent to the core financial services.
Accordingly, the Group's operating and reportable segments are now "Financial services" and "Other solutions", comprised as follows:
F-49

Financial services: financial services solutions serving Micro, Small and Medium Businesses (MSMBs) and Large Accounts, consisting mainly of payments solutions, digital banking, credit, insurance, and registry of receivables (TAG).
Other solutions: solutions that include ERP software, CRM, engagement tools, Ads solutions, and hubs.
The Group uses Adjusted net income (loss) as the measure reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which comprises the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO”) and the Board of Directors, about the performance of each segment.

(a)Related to acquisitions. Consists of expenses resulting from the changes of the fair value adjustments as a result of the application of the acquisition method.
(b)The Company excludes this amount to determine adjusted net income since it considers the effect related to the original acquisition of Linx in order to be consistent with the exclusion of effects in income related to acquisitions and disposal of businesses. Future deferred tax expense resulting from the derecognition of the deferred tax asset will also be eliminated in determining adjusted net income.
(c)The Company excludes this amount in determining adjusted net income as we consider this particular loss as unusual, non-recurring event considering regulatory changes about responsibility of cards schemes in the events of non-compliance by card issuers.
(d)Consists of the fair value adjustment related to associates call option, earn-out interests related to acquisitions, gains or losses on the divestment of assets and remeasurement of previously held equity in associates.
