Letter from management to shareholders, clients, and suppliers
This first quarter of 2026 was marked by a historic record yield for soybean. Total planted acreage was 424.6 thousand hectares, achieving an average yield of 4,146 kg/ha, which represents an increase of 4.7% per hectare compared to the previous harvest. Additionally, the soybean area also grew by 12.5% compared to the 2024/25 crop year. Moreover, in this 2025/26 crop year, six farms achieved yield above 4,800 kg/ha, demonstrating our commitment to high efficiency and delivering growth with value creation for our shareholders.
2025/26 Crop Year
Our first-crop cotton is in its final maturation stage and well on track for the start of harvesting, which is scheduled to begin in June 2026. The second crops for cotton and corn are progressing well so far, currently in their grain-filling phases. For second-crop corn, the context requires additional attention, since part of the areas were sown slightly outside the ideal planting window. Therefore, adequate rainfall volume and distribution are required in the coming weeks to ensure full grain filling and achievement of full yield potential. The Company has already advanced in the sale of the production, with 79.2% of soybeans, 47% of corn and 84.6% of cotton already hedged, including committed volumes.
Financial Performance and Net Debt
In the first quarter of 2026, Net Revenue reached R$2.3 billion, a decrease of 2.7% compared to the previous period, due to lower invoiced volumes of cotton lint, soybeans, and cottonseed during the quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA in 1Q26 totaled R$695.2 million with a margin of 30.7%, a reduction of 26.3% compared to 1Q25. The main factor driving this decline was a reduction of R$132.5 million in gross income for all crops except corn and seeds. Soybeans were the main driver of this performance, affected by the mix of farms with revenue recognized in the quarter, whose yield was below the Company's consolidated average. This margin compression is expected to be reversed over the next quarters as volumes from farms with yield above the project are recognized. EBITDA was also impacted by increased administrative and commercial expenses.
Free cash flow generation improved by 4.6%, however, it remained negative for the quarter, a typical trend for the period, due to the increase in planted area and, consequently, greater working capital needs, especially related to crop input payments. Additionally, regarding investments, the quarter was marked by final payments for the acquisition of land at Paladino farm, totaling R$361.5 million, and at the farm located in Unaí (Minas Gerais), totaling R$95 million.
The Company's adjusted net debt closed 1Q26 at R$6.6 billion, an increase of R$1.3 billion compared to 1Q25.
The Adjusted Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio increased from 1.97 times at the end of 2025 to
2.72 times in the first quarter of 2026, due to a combination of the following factors: reduction in Adjusted EBITDA and increase in net debt during the period.
The average interest rate on the Company's debt declined compared to the position as of March 31, 2025, falling from 15.1% per year to 14.9% per year on March 31, 2026, reflecting the adjustment to the Central Bank of Brazil (BACEN) interest rates. Our spread over CDI decreased from CDI+0.81% in 1Q25 to CDI+0.25% in 1Q26, despite the extension of debt maturities.
On debt reprofiling, there was an improvement compared to 4Q25, with the share of long-term debt rising from 78% to 81% in 1Q26.
Irrigation Project
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company launched the second phase of the irrigation project at Piratini farm, with earthmoving for the pump house, excavations for reservoirs, and irrigation channels. Irrigation remains a strategic priority. The Company currently has 19,000 hectares of irrigated land, with plans to reach 53,000 hectares in the coming years, increasing production predictability, profitability, and land value appreciation.
2026/27 Crop Year
The Company has already purchased 100% of phosphates and 85% of potassium chloride, with a 4.3% price increase in USD, based on the agricultural planning for the 2025/26 crop year. Crop protection products have been purchased as well, with 74.3% of the required volume acquired at a 6.3% price decrease in USD. Nitrogen has not yet been purchased, due to the impacts of the conflict between the U.S., Israel, and Iran since February 2026, which had a significant and immediate impact on global fertilizer markets. Up to 30% of global fertilizer trade and 20% of liquefied natural gas (LNG) pass through the region. Restrictions imposed by Iran increased costs and caused significant delays. Nitrogen production is highly dependent on natural gas, which accounts for 70% to 90% of nitrogen's cost, according to The Fertilizer Institute (TFI) / American Gas Association (AGA), therefore impacting urea and ammonia prices.
Regarding nitrogen fertilizers, the Company is monitoring market conditions and preparing to strategically purchase these inputs according to nutrient demand, in the most efficient manner possible, based on agronomic needs and crop timing, while operating with the flexibility afforded by our operations.
To this end, the Company will monitor and capitalize on any opportunities the market may present, since nitrogen fertilizers offer a longer purchase window than other fertilizers used.
Moreover, historically, nitrogen fertilizers have been the input category with the greatest price volatility.
By strategically leveraging market opportunities, we have already advanced sales of 35.7% of soybeans and 33.5% of cotton, considering our commitments.
ESG and Recognitions
The ESG agenda remains fully integrated with our corporate strategy. At the beginning of 2026, we published our 2025 Integrated Report, which transparently presents how we generate long-term value, integrating social and environmental impacts with financial performance.
The document covers the period from January 1 to December 31, 2025, the 2024/25 and 2025/26 crop years, and includes all of the Company's operations. It was prepared based on international standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), IFRS Foundation (Integrated Reporting), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).
In 2025, we underscore the initial adoption of the TCFD recommendations, which positions SLC Agrícola to meet the growing demands of investors and global markets regarding the management of natural capital, biodiversity, and land use. This is a significant step to improve the assessment of physical and transition risks, increase transparency, and support long-term value creation.
In 2025, we removed 544,000 metric tons of carbon, equivalent to 51% of Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Most of these removals (81%) resulted from the use of cover crops-which covered 253,311 hectares in the last harvest (51.2% of the total physical area). The direct seeding practice, without mechanical soil disturbance, accounted for 19% of the total CO2 removals. In the 2024/25 crop year, the Company had four of its farms with a negative carbon balance, meaning they removed more carbon than they emitted.
4 Farms with Negative Carbon Balance in the 2024/25 Crop Year
The Company has been consistently advancing in the adoption of regenerative agriculture practices, with emphasis on initiatives such as the use of cover crops and no-till farming, which enhance carbon sequestration in the soil without compromising productivity or profitability.
The chart below presents the expected reduction in carbon intensity of agricultural operations (tons of CO₂e per ton of product), indicating the potential to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 in Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

The Company has an emissions reduction program that includes the following commitments and initiatives:
End of land conversion for new cropland in Brazil: as of the 2020/21 crop year, the Company has concluded its land expansion cycle through the opening of new areas, aligning with the global movement to combat climate change;
Use of cover crops;
Adoption of renewable energy sources;
ILP (Crop-Livestock Integration);
Implementation of low-carbon digital agriculture;
Reforestation projects with native vegetation.
This program has been delivering positive results. Notably, four farms achieved a negative carbon balance in the 2024/25 crop year, meaning they removed more carbon than they emitted. This outcome demonstrates, in practical terms, the potential for certain areas to operate as net carbon sinks, contributing to net emissions removal over time.

4 Years in the ISE Reinforce SLC Agrícola's ESG Investment Thesis
SLC Agrícola's inclusion in B3's Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) for the fourth consecutive year reinforces, from an investor perspective, the strength of the Company's ESG strategy and its ability to execute consistently over time. Beyond a one-off recognition, continued participation in the index demonstrates sustained performance in governance practices, risk management, and environmental efficiency-factors increasingly embedded in capital allocation decisions. In this context, the Company's ongoing presence in the ISE contributes to lower perceived risk, a broader eligible investor base, and strengthens its positioning as an asset aligned with structural trends in sustainability and long-term value creation.
Recognition at the CDP Awards Latin America 2026
We were recognized at the CDP Awards Latin America 2026 with an "A-List" rating in the Forests and Water categories-one of the highest levels of the CDP.
This recognition reinforces the consistency of our environmental strategy, the transparency of our risk management, and our ability to create sustainable value in the long term.
Progress in Regenerative Agriculture
We expanded our certified regenerative agriculture area to 325,000 hectares under the regenagri program, a 79% increase over the previous cycle.
As a result, we maintain the largest regenagri-certified area in the Americas, moving forward toward our goal of having 550,000 hectares certified by 2030, while consolidating yield gains alongside soil conservation, biodiversity, and emission reduction.
Animal Welfare Certification
The Pantanal and Planalto farms obtained an animal welfare certification (confinement scope), granted by FairFood.
The certification attests to the adoption of high standards of animal management and care, based on criteria recognized and verified by an independent audit firm.
We thank our shareholders, employees, clients, and suppliers for their trust, and we remain committed to building a promising future for agribusiness in Brazil.

Operational Performance - 2025/26 Crop Year
Planted Area
Compared to 4Q25, planted area was reduced by 6,917 hectares in 1Q26, due to a delay in soybean harvest, which impacted the planting window for second crops, thereby reducing the likelihood of planting within the ideal window. The main acreage reductions occurred in the following crops: second-crop cotton (740 ha), second-crop corn (1,663 ha), and the remainder across other crops with lower economic relevance (millet seed and sorghum).
The area set for the 2025/26 crop year was 830,282 hectares, representing a 12.8% growth compared to the 2024/25 crop year. The increase in planted area reflects the acquisition of Sierentz Agro Brasil Ltda., announced via a material fact notice on March 6, 2025. Below is the current estimated planted area by crop:

Soybeans
The soybean harvest was concluded by the end of April, with a record yield of 4,146 kg/ha, 4.7% higher than last year and 2.7% higher than the initial project. Compared to the national average, our soybean yield was 12.2% higher (CONAB April 2026).
Soybean Seed
For 2026, sales expectation (third parties, intercompany sales, and internal use) is 72,000 big bags, representing a 28.6% increase compared to the previous year.
First-Crop Cotton
The crop is progressing from the filling stage to boll maturation, showing good yield potential. So far, expectations are to exceed the project.
Second-Crop Cotton
The planted area is showing good development and is currently at the flowering stage. Our expectation is to reach the projected yield.
Cotton Seed
For 2026, sales to third parties plus internal consumption are estimated at 6,280 big bags, up 8.3% from 2025.
Second-Crop Corn
Planting was completed at the beginning of the second half of March, outside our ideal planting window. If no additional rainfall occurs by the end of May, yields in the areas planted later may be impacted. Nevertheless, our current yield estimate remains close to the initial projection.

Fertilizers for the 2026/27 Crop Year
NPK fertilizers are the main fertilizers used by the Company, as they supply the three primary macronutrients essential for crop development: Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K).
Nitrogen (N): drives vegetative growth, leaf formation, photosynthesis, and yield. It is highly dependent on natural gas, making it sensitive to electric shocks.
Phosphorus (P): essential for root development, initial emergence, flowering, and grain/fiber formation. It acts directly in the plant's energy processes (ATP).
Potassium (K): responsible for water balance, water and heat stress resistance, plant health, and final quality (fiber, grains, and oil).
In the 2025/26 crop year, these fertilizers accounted for the following cost percentages by crop in the cost per hectare:
Table 5 - Fertilizer Share by Crop
Share % | Soybean | Cotton | Corn | % Average |
Fertilizers | 18.7% | 22.2% | 29.9% | 21.7% |
Nitrogen (N) | - | 10.1% | 16.2% | 6.7% |
Phosphorus (P) | 11.0% | 7.7% | 8.4% | 9.1% |
Potassium (K) | 7.7% | 4.4% | 5.3% | 5.9% |
Soybeans do not require nitrogen fertilizers because, as a legume, they can meet virtually all of their nitrogen needs through biological nitrogen fixation in symbiosis with bacteria of the genus Bradyrhizobium, which converts atmospheric nitrogen into a form the plant can absorb.
The Company has already purchased 100% of the phosphorus (P) and 85% of the potassium (K) it needs, with an average price increase of 4.3% in USD, based on the agricultural planning for the 2025/26 crop year.
As for nitrogen, the Company has not made any purchases yet, since this fertilizer has been strongly impacted by the war between the U.S., Israel and Iran, which caused a significant and immediate effect on global fertilizer markets. The region is strategic for the sector, accounting for about 30% of global fertilizer trade and approximately 20% of the worldwide LNG flow. The restrictions adopted by Iran resulted in increased costs and significant delays in the supply chain. In this context, nitrogen fertilizers are particularly vulnerable, as natural gas accounts for about 70%-90% of their production costs, according to The Fertilizer Institute (TFI) and the American Gas Association (AGA), putting pressure on urea and ammonia prices.
The purchasing window for nitrogen fertilizers is more extended, since these inputs will be used for cotton planting between November 2026 and January 2027, and for second-crop corn in February 2027. Given this scenario, the Company will continue to closely monitor market conditions to purchase nitrogen fertilizers at the most favorable time.
Based on the agricultural planning for the 2025/26 crop year, crop protection products represent, on average, 18.7% of production costs. The Company has purchased 71.3% of its crop protection package, at a 6.3% decrease in USD prices.
Note that the planting mix for the 2026/27 crop year has not yet been defined by the Company, which may impact the required volumes of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), as well as crop protection products.
Financial Performance
Starting in 4Q25, the Company began to disclose the value of seeds separately, in a specific line dedicated to the sale of this product. Until then, soybean seed revenue was classified together with commercial soybeans, and in the case of cotton seed, together with cottonseed. This decision is aligned with best transparency practices, allowing for greater clarity in evaluating seed results in comparison with other market players.
Revenue and Invoiced Volume
Net revenue showed a decrease of 2.7% (R$63.5 million) in 1Q26 vs. 1Q25, due to lower invoiced volume for cotton lint, soybeans, and cottonseed. The lower revenue from products with lower sales was partially offset by the higher revenue from corn, seeds, and cattle sales. The reduction in cotton revenue resulted from the lower volume billed during the period, due to lower productivity and a decrease in planted area in the 2024/25 crop year compared to the 2023/24 crop year. It is worth noting that the volume billed in 1Q25 was above the recurring level for this period, affecting the year-over-year comparison. In the case of soybeans, the lower revenue is associated with a reduction in billed volume, reflecting the mix of farms that reported sales during the period, located in the Midwest region, whose productivity was impacted by delays caused by rainfall at the end of the harvest. In the coming quarters, revenues are expected to reflect higher productivity levels, in line with the forecast disclosed by the Company.

The Variation in Fair Value of Biological Assets (VFVBA) for soybeans, cotton, and corn reflects the gross margin expected for these crops, calculated based on market value less production costs and opportunity costs of owned land, in relation to crops undergoing significant biological transformation, at the point of harvest and at the moment of harvest. For cattle, VFVBA is calculated based on market value less production costs of the herd on the reporting date.
The calculation of the Variation in Net Realizable Value of Agricultural Products (VNRAP) reflects changes in the prices of agricultural product inventories. Unlike VFVBA, which uses market prices, VNRAP also considers forward contracts sold. The price used for the VNRAP evaluation is the average
price between volumes sold and yet to be sold from inventories, net of taxes, logistics expenses, and other direct costs necessary for the performance of contracts with customers.

VFVBA = Variation in the Fair Value of Biological Assets.
NRVAP = Net Realizable Value of Agricultural Products.
The main variations occurred in cotton and soybean crops. Cotton showed a reduction in VNRAP, due to its reversal, reflecting a lower volume invoiced between the comparison periods. Soybeans showed a decline due to the marking-to-market of the biological asset with higher margins, partially offset by the reversal of VNRAP because of sales made during the period.
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
In 1Q26, COGS increased by 3.7% (R$51.3 million) compared to 1Q25, mainly driven by the rise in the unit cost of soybeans, reflecting the lower yield recorded in the mix of Midwestern farms with invoiced volumes during the quarter. This effect expected to be overcome in the coming quarters by higher yields in the Northeastern farms. Additionally, the unit cost of cotton increased slightly, associated with lower yield in the 2024/25 crop year compared to 2023/24. Unit costs increased for cattle, due to higher fattening expenses resulting from longer pasture stay. On the other hand, cottonseed and corn showed a reduction in unit costs.

The Realization of Fair Value of Biological Assets in cost ("RVJAB") is the reversal of the recognized Variation of the Fair Value of Biological Assets in revenue (VFVBA). The RFVBA is recognized in the results as products are invoiced, on an accrual basis. A negative RFVBA means that the recognized VFVBA was positive.
In 1Q26, the main variations occurred in cotton, soybeans, and cottonseed. In the comparative period, RVJAB for cotton and cottonseed decreased over 30%, reflecting lower yield in the 2024/25 crop year compared to 2023/24.
For soybeans, the 17.3% reduction in RVJAB compared to 1Q25 is also explained by yield. In 1Q26, the invoiced volume refers to the farms in the Midwest / 2025/26 crop year, which delivered lower performance, a situation expected to improve in the coming quarters.

Realization of Fair Value of Biological Assets (RFVBA).
In 1Q26, gross income decreased 12.3% (R$132.9 million) on 1Q25, totaling R$943.2 million. Considering the effects of the Fair Value of Biological Assets (VFVBA and RFVBA) and the Net Realizable Value Adjustment of Agricultural Products (NRVAP), the main changes for the period were:
reduction of R$132.5 million in gross income across all crops except corn and seeds. Soybeans contributed to this decline due to the mix of farms that invoiced volumes during the quarter, whose yield was below the Company's overall average. This lower margin performance is expected to be offset in the coming quarters, reflecting higher yields than those achieved in the period;
decrease of R$18 million in (VFVBA + NRVAP - RFVBA);
increase of R$17.6 million in gross income from corn and seeds.
Excluding the effects of the Fair Value of Biological Assets (VFVBA and RFVBA) and the Net Realizable Value Adjustment of Agricultural Products (NRVAP), we have the actual realization of the margins of invoiced products. On this comparable basis, gross income for 1Q26 decreased by 12%, a reduction of R$114.9 million, reflecting mainly the decrease in the gross income from soybeans by R$77.8 million, due to the sales mix from Midwestern farms, which obtained lower yields. In the coming quarters, the Company expects sales from other regions with better yields and margins. Cotton and cottonseed posted negative gross income of R$39.9 million, due to lower invoiced volume and lower margins compared to the previous crop year. The sum of the gross income from other crops-corn, seeds, cattle, and other crops-added R$2.8 million.

In 1Q26, sales expenses increased by 27.5% on 1Q25, driven by freight, royalties, storage, and export expenses. Freight expenses grew by 44.9%, impacted by CIF sales of bulk soybean contracts from the farms acquired from Sierentz. During the quarter, royalty expenses came to R$12.9 million, 62% of which were related to cotton seeds and 38% to soybean seeds. Price adjustments occurred in 1Q25 make the year-over-year variation data not directly comparable.
The increase in storage expenses in 1Q26 mainly reflected the higher volume stored, following the incorporation of the farms acquired from Sierentz (Perpétua, Potência, and Porteira).

Administrative expenses (excluding amounts related to the Profit-Sharing Program) increased by 36.2% in 1Q26 compared to 1Q25. The main variations were:
Fees paid to third parties: increase mainly related to consulting and tax advisory services, associated with the Company's growth projects.
Personnel expenses: increase due to new employee hired and the incorporation of staff resulting from the acquisition of Sierentz.
Software maintenance: rise in expenses related to data processing, associated with the expansion of the corporate cloud environment, especially with the growth of cloud services, particularly Azure licenses. Upgrades to information security tools and support for operations also contributed to such increase, in line with the Company's strategy to strengthen its IT infrastructure.
Taxes and miscellaneous fees: increase in expenses with taxes and fees paid to regulatory and environmental agencies.
Contributions and donations: increase in contributions made to trade associations, producer organizations, and research institutes during the period.
In 1Q26, the Company recorded non-recurring expenses (consulting and audit expenses) related to the acquisitions carried out in 2025, totaling R$6.2 million. Therefore, excluding profit-sharing amounts and non-recurring expenses, administrative expenses represented 3.1% of net revenue, an increase of
0.7 p.p. from 1Q25.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA in 1Q26 totaled R$695.2 million, a decrease of 26.3% compared to 1Q25. The main factors contributing to this decline were: (i) a drop in gross profit by R$114.9 million, which is expected to be offset in the coming quarters, mainly due to revenue from farms with higher yields than those obtained during this period, as explained in the Gross Income section; (ii) an increase of R$44.9 million in administrative expenses, of which 45.3% was due to the rise in the value of the Profit Sharing Program, reflecting the higher income earned in fiscal year 2024. Other administrative expenses grew by R$24.7 million, of which R$6.2 million pertain to non-recurring expenses, related to acquisitions carried out in 2025; (iii) an increase of R$33.4 million in selling expenses; (iv) a rise of R$30.4 million in other operational income (expenses); (v) depreciation, asset write-offs, and others, with a reduction of R$24.8 million.

Adjusted Net Financial Income (Expense)
Since part of the Company's debt operations are denominated in foreign currency, these operations are divided between those "swapped" into Brazilian reais and those classified under "hedge accounting," used as instruments to protect revenue against exchange rate fluctuations, as provided for in the Market Risk Management Policy (Hedge).
Thus, when reviewing the consolidated numbers, the exchange rate variation on foreign currency debt does not impact the financial result. This is due to the fact that any currency gains or losses are offset by equivalent effects on the respective swap agreements. For operations classified as hedge accounting, the exchange variation is initially allocated to Equity until the debt amortization; after that, it is reclassified to the income statement, under sales revenue.

(1) No cash effect
Financial expense increased by 123.6% in 1Q26 compared to 1Q25. Interest expenses were higher due to the increase in adjusted net debt and the rise of CDI during the period. However, compared to 1Q25, our spread relative to CDI decreased, going from CDI+0.81% to CDI+0.25% in 1Q26, despite the lengthening of the Company's the debt profile.
The present value adjustment of leases also registered growth, reflecting the increase in leased land through the acquisition of Sierentz Agro Brasil Ltda. Likewise, the present value adjustment of payables increased due to the debt contracted by the Company for the acquisition of Sierentz Agro Brasil Ltda.
The exchange variation decreased in the quarter, mainly related to trade payables indexed to the U.S. dollar, due to two main factors: (a) lower appreciation of the Brazilian real against the U.S. dollar compared to 1Q25; and (b) lower amounts denominated in U.S. dollar, as the Company entered into derivative transactions for hedging.

Net income for 1Q26 totaled R$236.1 million, a decrease of R$274.6 million compared to 1Q25. This variation was mainly explained by reduced gross profit, especially from soybeans and cotton (lint and seed), weaker financial results due to higher debt, and increased administrative and selling expenses. These effects were partially offset by the lower income tax levied, due to the lower net income of the period.
Cash Flow Statement Analysis
Free cash flow generation improved by 4.6%, however, it remained negative in the quarter, a typical pattern for the period due to increased working capital requirements, especially related to payments for crop inputs. Additionally, on the investment front, the quarter was marked by the completion of the final payments related to the acquisition of land at Paladino farm, totaling R$361.5 million, and at the farm located in Unaí (Minas Gerais), totaling R$95 million.

On October 15, 2024, SLC Agrícola acquired a non-controlling interest in SLC LandCo Empr. Agrícola. The change in the percentage of interest did not result in a loss of control, with the amount disbursed being classified as a financing activity, according to CPC 03.42A. The amount in the "acquisition of stake" line is composed of: (i) (R$280.9) million related to the payment of the second installment of the acquisition of the non-controlling stake in SLC LandCo, along with (R$48.4) million of income tax paid on the transaction;
Due to the adoption of IFRS 16, the payment of leases is now booked in the Statement of Cash Flows under Financing Activities. However, it should be considered as operating cash disbursement. For details on payments (cotton processing unit, crop lands, buildings, machinery and vehicles), see Note 11 to the Quarterly Financial Information. Starting from 4Q24, the lease amounts are separated into principal and interest.

Debt
The Company's adjusted net debt closed 1Q26 at R$6.6 billion, an increase of R$1.3 billion from 1Q25. This growth mainly reflects disbursements related to crop financing and the final payments for the acquisition of land at Paladino farm (R$361.5 million) and the farm at Unaí, Minas Gerais (R$95 million). Adjusted Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio increased from 1.97 times at the end of 2025 to 2.72 times in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the increase in net debt during the period. The average interest rate on the Company's debt decreased from 15.1% p.a. to 14.9% p.a. as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.

Hedge Position
Currency and agricultural commodity hedging
The Company's sales revenues are mainly generated by the trading of agricultural commodities such as cotton, soybeans, and corn, products that are quoted in U.S. dollars on international exchanges like the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) and the Intercontinental Exchange Futures US (ICE). As a result, we are actively exposed to fluctuations in exchange rates and the prices of these commodities. To protect against exchange rate fluctuations, financial derivative instruments are used, with the portfolio mainly consisting of non-deliverable forwards (NDFs). In line with the Company's Risk Management Policy, which aims to achieve a pre-established operating margin through the combination of price, exchange, and cost factors, most of the instruments used for protection against commodity price fluctuations are carried out through advanced sales directly to our clients (forward contracts). Additionally, futures and options contracts traded on exchanges are used, as well as financial swap and options transactions with financial institutions. Below is our updated hedge position for commodities (relative to estimated total invoiced volume) and exchange (relative to total estimated revenue in USD), broken down by commercial hedge and financial hedge as of May 11:

ESG Communication with Stakeholders
Publication of the 2025 Integrated Report
We published our 2025 Integrated Report, which transparently presents how we create long-term value by integrating socio-environmental impacts and financial performance.
The document covers the period from January 1 to December 31, 2025, the 2024/25 and 2025/26 crop years, and encompasses all Company operations. It was prepared based on international standards, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), IFRS Foundation (Integrated Reporting), Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).
A key milestone in 2025 was the adoption of the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures recommendations, which positions SLC Agrícola ahead of rising investor and global market demands regarding natural capital management, biodiversity, and land use. This is a significant step to improve the assessment of physical and transition risks, increase transparency, and support long-term value creation.
4 Farms with Negative Carbon Balance in the 2024/25 Crop Year
In 2025, the Company removed 544 thousand tons of carbon, equivalent to 51% of Scope 1 and 2 emissions. The majority of these removals (81%) result from the use of cover crops, which covered 253,311 hectares in the latest crop year (51.2% of the total physical area). Meanwhile, no-till farming, which avoids mechanical soil disturbance, accounted for 19% of the total CO₂ removed from the atmosphere. In the 2024/25 crop year, the Company identified four farms with a negative carbon balance, meaning they removed more carbon than they emitted. These results demonstrate, in practice, that it is possible to combine operational performance, economic viability, and measurable climate contribution, reinforcing the role of agribusiness as part of the solution to climate change. For more information, please refer to the Integrated Report: https://www.slcagricola.com.br/sustentabilidade/slc-sustentabilidade.
4 Years in the ISE Reinforce SLC Agrícola's ESG Investment Thesis
SLC Agrícola's inclusion in B3's Corporate Sustainability Index (ISE) for the fourth consecutive year underscores the consistency of its ESG strategy and its ability to execute over time. More than a one-off recognition, this continued presence in the index demonstrates that the Company maintains, in a structured manner, high standards of governance, risk management, and environmental efficiency, aligned with best practices in the capital markets. From an investor perspective, continued inclusion in the ISE signals an asset with lower perceived risk and greater operational predictability, while also expanding access to capital through ESG-focused funds and mandates. By consolidating its position in the index, SLC Agrícola strengthens its investment thesis, combining financial performance with sustainable long-term value creation, and positioning itself competitively in a market increasingly driven by demand for responsible and resilient assets.
Recognition at the CDP Awards Latin America 2026
We were recognized at the CDP Awards Latin America 2026 with an "A-List" rating in the Forests and Water categories-one of the highest levels of the CDP. This recognition reinforces the consistency of our environmental strategy, the transparency of our risk management, and our ability to create sustainable value in the long term.This result is particularly relevant for investors, as CDP is widely used as a global reference for evaluating corporate environmental performance. The "A-List" rating strengthens the perception of quality in climate and natural risk management, improving capital access, relationships with international clients, and competitive positioning amid increasingly demanding global supply chains.
Progress in Regenerative Agriculture
We expanded our certified regenerative agriculture area to 325,000 hectares under the regenagri program, a 79% increase over the previous cycle.As a result, we maintain the largest regenagri-certified area in the Americas, moving forward toward our goal of having 550,000 hectares certified by 2030, while consolidating yield gains alongside soil conservation, biodiversity, and emission reduction.
Animal Welfare Certification
The Pantanal I and Planalto farms obtained animal welfare certification (confinement scope), granted by FairFood. The certification attests to the adoption of high standards of animal management and care, based on criteria recognized and verified by independent audit.This reinforces the Company's commitment to responsible production practices aligned with ESG guidelines and contributes to meeting the requirements of markets and clients that value high standards of animal welfare.
New Websites - SLC Agrícola Corporate Website and Investor Relations Website - with Sustainability Portal
In February of this year, we launched SLC Agrícola's new corporate website and the new Investor Relations website, both featuring an exclusive portal dedicated to the Company's sustainability information. The platforms offer more intuitive navigation and enhance transparency around the ESG strategy, facilitating access for investors and other stakeholders to our practices, targets, and results. The content is available at https://www.slcagricola.com.br/sustentabilidade/ or, alternatively, via the Investor Relations website under the ESG menu: https://ri.slcagricola.com.br/.
No Areas Affected by Fires
SLC Agrícola, in line with its Zero Deforestation Policy, has not converted areas with native vegetation for production purposes since 2021, even when legally permitted to do so, and therefore does not use fire for this purpose. Nevertheless, it maintains monitoring and firefighting systems, since its operations are mainly located in the Cerrado biome, where natural fires can occur between June and September, a dry period marked by high temperatures.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company had no records of areas affected by fires in its operations. This positive result is directly related to the weather conditions of the period, which is historically characterized by higher humidity and milder temperatures-factors that significantly reduce the likelihood of natural fires in the Cerrado.
Even so, the Company remains vigilant, taking preventive measures such as water trucks, trained brigades, surveillance in critical areas, firebreaks, strategic roads, and adapted equipment. We also use technology for real-time monitoring, through georeferencing and satellite imagery, ensuring rapid and effective response to any hot spots.
SLC Agrícola remains committed to continuously investing in environmental protection and the climate resilience of its operations.

The variations in said account are non-cash
On October 15, 2024, SLC Agrícola acquired a non-controlling interest in SLC LandCo Empr. Agrícola. The change in the percentage of interest did not result in a loss of control, with the amount disbursed being classified as a financing activity, according to CPC 03.42A. The amount in the "acquisition of stake" line is composed of: (i) (R$280.9) million related to the payment of the second installment of the acquisition of the non-controlling stake in SLC LandCo, along with (R$48.4) million of income tax paid on the transaction;
Due to the adoption of IFRS 16, the payment of leases is now booked in the Statement of Cash Flows under Financing Activities. However, it should be considered as operating cash disbursement. For details on payments (cotton processing unit, crop lands, buildings, machinery and vehicles), see Note 11 to the Quarterly Financial Information. Starting from 4Q24, the lease amounts are separated into principal and interest.
