São Paulo, May 02, 2024 - EZTEC S.A. (B3: EZTC3), with 45 years of existence, stands out as one of the most profitable companies in the construction and development sector in Brazil. The Company announces its results for the fourth quarter of 2023 (4Q23). EZTEC's operational and financial information, except where otherwise indicated, is presented based on consolidated figures and in thousands of Reais (R$), prepared in accordance with Accounting Practices Adopted in Brazil ("BR GAAP") and the international financial reporting standards (IFRS) applicable to real estate development entities in Brazil, as approved by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC), the Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) and the Federal Accounting Council (CFC). Non-accounting and non-financial data were not audited by Independent Auditors.

EARNINGS RELEASE 1Q24

MANAGEMENT'S 2024 COMMENTS

The EZTEC administration announces the results for the first quarter of 2024. This quarter records launches of R$458 million, gross margin of 34.2%, net margin of 23.7%, and profit of R$57 million. After focusing on the sales performance of products under construction in the last fiscal year, the Company starts this year aiming at the evolution of its launch volume.

EZTEC launched three projects targeting medium-high and high-income audiences in this quarter. The first two launches came from a plot of land in Mooca in partnership with Aguassanta DI. Near the future Mooca Park, the location is the birthplace of a future residential complex of over R$1.5 billion in total PSV, which received its first phase in January with the launches of the Mooca Città - Milano and Mooca Città - Firenze projects. Both projects are aimed at the medium- high-income audience and have a 50% stake from the Company, with PSV %EZTEC of R$85 million and R$130 million, and are 41% and 15% sold, respectively.

The high-standard Lindenberg Vista Brooklin project, a result of our joint venture with Construtora Adolpho Lindenberg, was our third launch of the quarter. Launched near the end of March, it is 19% sold. With a PSV %EZTEC of R$243 million, this project completes the R$458 million launched at the beginning of the year, a value 261% higher than that launched in the same period of 2023 and 53% higher than 4Q23.

The higher volume of launches supported a 47% expansion in net sales in the quarter vs. 4Q23. In addition to the expansion in launches, the Company also began offering discounts on its inventories, especially on finished products, at the end of the quarter to accelerate the turnover of its assets and anticipate the capture of the margin from the ready units that fully transition into results.

Financially, a 0.9p.p. expansion in gross margin against 4Q23 and a 5.7p.p. expansion compared to 1Q23 were observed. The main reason for this expansion is associated with the conclusion of additional expenses related to EZ Parque da Cidade project and the delivery of R$1.8 billion in PSV of projects launched between 2019 and 2020, which were 85% sold and were greatly affected by the inflation in construction costs during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Furthermore, the decrease in revenue compared to the previous quarter is partly associated with the absence of onetime effects such as overcoming suspensive clauses in projects, similar to what happened with Lindenberg Ibirapuera in the previous quarter. However, if we look at net margins and net profit, we can see the maintenance of a margin above 23% and a net profit that expanded by 34% compared to the same period in 2023.

Finally, as usual, the Board approved the payment of dividends on quarterly profits. The total amount will be R$13.2 million, approximately R$0.06 (six cents) per share to be paid on May 31, 2024.

Best Regards,

THE MANAGEMENT

1st Quarter

↑0.90 p.p. vs 4Q23 ↑5.70 p.p vs 1Q23

With the deliveries of projects launched between 2019 and 2020, the Company's gross margin recovers 0.9p.p. vs Q423 and advances 5.7p.p. in 12 months. It is interesting to note that throughout 2020, 2021 and 2022, the INCC (National Construction Cost Index) was 8.81%, 13.85% and 9.28% p.a., respectively, which generated significant challenges for maintaining the margins of projects under construction in these periods. However, inflation in the last 12 months has been 3.36%, allowing for a greater capacity to absorb inflation in prices and better control of construction budgets, favoring the maintenance of feasibility margins in recently launched projects.

In the absence of one-off effects in the quarter, the revenue reduction is due to the surpassing of the suspension clause of Lindenberg Ibirapuera in Q423. Having its first phase announced in June 2023, the Lindenberg Ibirapuera project surpassed the suspension clause after six months of its incorporation registration, and the result of its sold units was incorporated into the results in Q423. It is important to note that the project was 20% sold (in the consolidated total of the two phases) and 61% executed, which resulted in an increase of R$70 million in revenue in the last quarter. Without new one-offeffects, revenue remained stable, in line with that observed in the other quarters of last year.

Gross profit expanded by R$11 million compared to 1Q23, margin increased by 5.7 percentage points in the last 12 months

An average EZTEC project is much larger than an average project built in Brazil. As

is expected, the larger the project, the greater the weight of steel, cement, aluminum, among other inputs in its cost basket, tends to be. Such projects may be common to the São Paulo market, but do not reflect the national average. The INCC, a reference index for construction inflation in Brazil, had its calculation model recently revised by FGV and as of July/23 new parameters began to be adopted, possibly more in line with the Company's cost dynamics.

Capitalized Financial Charges

1.4%

Of the quarter's

costs

Volume of SFH debt. In the real estate market, in accounting, interest on construction financing is capitalized at the cost of the product, instead of being considered as a financial expense, as it arises from the production process. However, this interest becomes an expense under the Interest and Passive Monetary Variation line once the project is delivered.

Maintenance & Collateral

1.5%

Of the quarter's

costs

The Company maintains in its contracts maintenance and guarantee clauses for its

developments for up to 5 years after the keys have been handed over. The provisions seek to anticipate the financial effects of the guarantees provided by the Company on its developments. After 5 years, the unrealized portion of this provision will be reversed.

SELLING EXPENSES

The early completion of the stands for the quarter's launches generated variations in commercial expenses. As communicated in the last disclosure, the Company was already preparing for the launch of the new projects: Mooca Città Firenze, Milano, and Lindenberg Vista Brooklin, applying most of the resources to the preparation of the stands for these projects in the last quarter. In addition, it is important to note that the values of expenses with commissions are recognized in the same proportion as the PoC (Percentage of Completion) of the projects. With that, since there was a large volume of deliveries in the last quarter of well-soldprojects, the expenses with the commission of sales of the units sold and delivered were fully recognized, reducing this line, even with a higher volume of sales in this quarter.

Maintenance and Inventory

A higher volume of inventory and a higher volume of projects delivered under warranty contribute to higher maintenance costs.
