1 Background information
1.1 Reporting entity
JBS N.V. (“JBS N.V.” or “Company”)
is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands and is domiciled in Amsterdam. The Company is the holding entity of the
JBS Group.
JBS N.V. and its subsidiaries ("Group")
primarily operates in the processing of animal proteins, encompassing activities related to beef, pork, lamb, and poultry, as well as
the production and marketing of prepared foods and other related products. Additionally, the Group carries out operations in the leather,
collagen, hygiene and cleaning products, metal packaging, biodiesel, and other complementary businesses, integrated within its value chain,
with a global presence in several countries, including Brazil, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, the United Kingdom, Argentina,
and Uruguay. The portfolio includes internationally recognized brands such as Seara, Doriana, Pilgrim’s, Moy Park, Primo, Friboi,
Maturatta, Swift, Ozo, and Adaptable Meals, among others.
JBS N.V. is registered as a FPI - Foreign
Private Issuer with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and as a foreign issuer with the Brazilian Securities and
Exchange Commission (CVM), in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements in the Netherlands, Brazil, and the United States.
The Class A ordinary shares of JBS N.V. are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker symbol “JBS,” and
its Level II Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs) are traded on B3 - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão, under the code “JBSS32.”
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim
financial statements reflect the operations of the Group.
The approval of these unaudited condensed
consolidated interim financial information occurred at the Board of Directors’ meeting on November 13, 2025.
Corporate restructuring
As part of its corporate restructuring,
JBS N.V. became the indirect controlling shareholder of JBS S.A. through the completion of a two-phase contribution process by its ultimate
controlling shareholder, J&F. In the first phase, completed on December 27, 2023, J&F and its wholly owned investment fund, FIP
Formosa, transferred a non-controlling portion of their JBS S.A. common shares to JBS Participações Societárias S.A.,
which were subsequently contributed to J&F Investments Luxembourg S.à r.l. and then to JBS N.V.
The second phase was completed on May
23, 2025, with J&F transferring its remaining JBS S.A. common shares through the same corporate structure. As a result, JBS N.V.,
via JBS Participações Societárias S.A., now holds all shares previously owned directly by J&F, consolidating
its position as the indirect controlling shareholder of JBS S.A. The transaction was accounted for as a common control transaction, whereby
JBS N.V. recognized the assets, liabilities, and results of JBS S.A. at their historical book values. The restructuring preserved shareholder
economic interests by applying a consistent exchange ratio to both controlling and non-controlling shareholders, subject only to immaterial
adjustments related to fractions of BDRs and share-based payments.
On June 6, 2025, the migration of the
shareholder base of JBS S.A. to JBS N.V was completed. As part of this transaction, JBS S.A. shareholders exchanged their shares for Level
II Brazilian Depositary Receipts (BDRs), backed by Class A common shares issued by JBS N.V. These BDRs were delivered to the shareholders
of JBS S.A., effectively establishing JBS N.V. as the new holding company of the JBS Group.
On June 9, 2025, JBS S.A.’s shares
ceased trading on B3 – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão and were officially replaced by the BDRs of JBS N.V., which began trading under
the ticker symbol “JBSS32.” In addition, JBS N.V.’s Class A common shares commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) on June 12, 2025, under the ticker symbol “JBS”.

for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
(Expressed in thousands of United States dollar)
The Group accounted for the Reorganization
as a common control transaction, and the pre-reorganization carrying amounts of JBS S.A. were included in the consolidated financial statements
of JBS N.V. at book value. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements reflect the following:
(i) The historical operating results and financial position
of JBS S.A. prior to the restructuring;
(ii) The consolidated financial performance and position
of JBS N.V. subsequent to the completion of the restructuring;
(iii) The assets and liabilities of JBS N.V. and its subsidiaries
stated at historical cost;
(iv) The number of ordinary shares issued by JBS N.V. as
a result of the restructuring, which is reflected retrospectively from January 1, 2024, for the purpose of calculating earnings per share;
(v) The shares of JBS S.A. were contributed to JBS N.V.
at their carrying amount in three tranches: December 27, 2023, May 23, 2025, and June 9, 2025;
(vi) The remaining retained earnings of JBS S.A., no longer
applicable to JBS N.V., were reclassified to the opening balance of capital reserves (see note 20).
1.2 Main events

1.2.1 Senior Notes (Bonds): On
July 3, 2025, the indirect subsidiaries of JBS S.A., JBS USA Holding Lux S.à r.l., JBS USA Food Company, and JBS USA Foods Group

with an annual coupon of 6.375%. Interest payments will be made semiannually, starting between January and April 2026, depending on each

as to settle short-term debt, with any remaining balance allocated for general corporate purposes.
1.2.2 Investment in Granjeros Campo
9 S.A. (Granjeros Campo): On July 7, 2025, the indirect subsidiary Seara Alimentos Ltda. entered into an investment agreement for
the acquisition of 90% of Granjeros Campo’s capital, represented by the amount of US$ 6.3 million. Granjeros Campo 9 S.A (Granjeros Campos)

(Expressed in thousands of United States dollar)
1.3 Seasonality
Demand for chicken is relatively stable
throughout the year in the United States, Europe and Brazil, but there are seasonal variations in the sales volume of some specific products
at certain times of the year, such as: Christmas, New Year and Easter. Demand in the United States beef industry is highest in the second
and third quarters, due to favorable weather conditions for outdoor activities. In Australia, the beef industry faces a drop in slaughter
in the fourth quarter, as the rainy season affects cattle’s availability and transport. In Brazil, beef sales do not fluctuate significantly
during the year. The pork industry in The United States and Australia have peaks in demand in the first and fourth quarters, due to the
supply of pork and the holidays, which stimulate the consumption of certain pork products, with no significant fluctuation in pork numbers
in other locations.
1.4 Subsequent events:
1.4.1 Investment in Pico Paco Ltda.:
On October 14, 2025, the indirect subsidiary Seara Alimentos Ltda. entered into agreement for the acquisition of 100% of Pico Paco
Ltda.’s capital, represented by the amount of US$1.3 million. Pico Paco Ltda. is a company in the meatpacking sector that focuses on poultry
slaughter in Minas Gerais.
1.4.2 Dividends distribution: In
October 2025, the Company received dividends from its indirect subsidiary JBS S.A. totaling US$200.0 million. The payments were made on
October 15, 2025, October 21, 2025 and October 31, 2025, in the amounts of US$75.0 million, US$75.0 million and US$50.0 million, respectively.
These amounts correspond to the distribution of interim dividends approved on the respective dates.
2 Basis of preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim
financial information as of and for the three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IAS
34 Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and should be read in conjunction with the
Group´s last annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“last annual financial
statements”). They do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance
with IFRS Accounting Standards. However, selected explanatory notes are included to describe events and transactions that are significant
to an understanding of the changes in the Group´s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.
In preparing these unaudited condensed
consolidated interim financial statements, Management has made judgments and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies
and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant
judgments made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the
same as those described in the last annual financial statements.
2.1 Functional and presentation currency
The financial statements of each subsidiary included in the
consolidation are prepared using the functional currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates.
These consolidated financial statements are converted and presented
in U.S dollar (US$). The Group selected the US$ as its presentation currency to facilitate a more direct comparison to other competitors.
2.2 Foreign currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies other
than an entity’s functional currency are initially measured in the functional currency of the entity using the exchange rate effective
at the date of each transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the closing exchange
rate at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the remeasurement
at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income,
under the caption “Finance income” or “Finance expense”.
11
Notes to unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information
for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
(Expressed in thousands of United States dollar)
2.3 Translation of subsidiaries financial statements
The consolidated financial statements
of foreign subsidiaries are prepared using each subsidiary’s respective functional currency. The results and financial position
of all entities with a functional currency different from its ultimate parent’s functional currency (R$) have been translated to R$ and
then these financial statements have been translated from the parent´s functional currency (R$) into the Group’s presentation
currency (US$). As follows:
(i) assets and liabilities are
translated at the current rate at the date of each closing period;
(ii) income and expenses are
translated at the average rate at the date of each closing period; and
(iii) all exchange rate translation
differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and are presented in the statement of comprehensive income (loss) as foreign
currency translation adjustments.
2.4 New standards, amendments and interpretations
a. Standards,
amendments and interpretations recently issued and adopted by the Group
IAS 21 – Effects of changes in
exchange rates and translation of financial statements.
As of January 1, 2025, this amendment
establishes the accounting requirements for when a functional currency cannot be converted into other currencies. In such cases, the Group
is required to utilize the most recent observable exchange rate to translate the results and financial position of the foreign operation
into its presentation currency. The entity must also disclose this exchange rate, the date on which it was observed, and the reasons why
the currency is not exchangeable. The Group has not identified any impacts as a result of this change.
b. New standards, amendments and interpretations
that are not yet effective
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements.
As of January 1, 2027, IFRS 18 will replace
IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. The new standard introduces the following main new requirements:
●
Companies are required to classify all income and expenses into five categories in the income statement: operating, investing, financing,
discontinued operations, and income tax. Entities are also required to present a newly defined operating profit subtotal. The entities’
net income will not change.
●
Management defined performance measures, which are disclosed in a single note in the financial statements.
●
Enhanced guidance will be provided on how to group information in the financial statements.
All entities are required to use the subtotal of operating
profit as the starting point for the cash flow statement when presenting operating cash flows using the indirect method.
The Group is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard
and, if material, will adjust the disclosure in accordance with the standard’s requirements in the annual financial statements.

In May 2025, the indirect subsidiary JBS S.A. acquired tax
credit rights from the related party Laguz I Fundo de Investimento through an agreement providing for 31 installments, with final maturity
in April 2028. These tax credits originate from a judicial claim related to the export credit premium incentive. The case has already
been definitively settled in favor of the taxpayer, and is currently in the final stage of assessment and confirmation of the credit
balance. The credit rights were acquired at an approximate discount of 35%, and the credits will be used to offset JBS S.A.’s tax
obligations once the case is finalized and the use of the credits is authorized by the relevant regulatory authorities. The credits have
been recorded under “Other receivables”.
(2)
The net balance payable to J&F refers to: (i) US$93,379
receivable, arising from the settlement agreement entered into between JBS S.A., J&F, and certain former executives of the Company,
which resulted in the definitive termination of the dispute addressed in arbitration proceeding, under which J&F committed to settle
the amount in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement; and (ii) US$143,604 payable, related to the purchase
of the Araputanga Plant, to be settled in 19 installments, with final maturity in May 2027.

Mainly refers to the transfer of tax loss carryforwards and
negative Social Contribution on Net Profit (CSLL) bases from the indirect subsidiary Seara Alimentos and its indirect subsidiaries to
JBS S.A. These tax losses were used to settle a tax assessment related to the taxation of profits earned abroad (TBU) for the 2016 calendar
year, which was upheld in a final decision by the Administrative Council of Tax Appeals (CARF) through a casting vote. This enabled full
settlement with reductions in fines and interest by using the accumulated tax loss carryforwards. The adjustment also includes deferred
taxes related to the gain on the purchase of Agro Alfa and Via Rovigo, as well as cash flow hedge operations recognized in other comprehensive
income by the subsidiary Seara Alimentos, and the pension plan in the United States of America.

b. Reconciliation
of income tax and social contribution expense:
The nominal tax rate of 34% was adopted
in the income tax reconciliation as it reflects the expected tax burden on the Group’s profit, since the profits of international
subsidiaries located under the JBS S.A. structure are taxed in Brazil at a rate of 34% through the Taxation of Foreign Profits (TBU) mechanism.
This rate adequately represents the consolidated nominal tax burden, as provided for in paragraph 85 of IAS 12 – Income Taxes.

Additional information - Analysis of
the variation in the effective rate:
The average effective tax rate is calculated
as the ratio between tax expense (income) and accounting profit. This rate can be influenced by operations that impact tax expense (income),
but which have no direct relationship with net income for the period. The following are examples of these operations: the effects of unrecognized
deferred taxes, income tax, and social contributions on the realization of the revaluation reserve. This information should be considered
when analyzing the effective tax rate.
(3)
The Group and its subsidiaries have subsidies granted by
state governments, as a presumed credit, in accordance with the regulations of each state. The amounts appropriated from this tax incentive
as revenue in the income statement are excluded in the calculation of taxes on profit, when the requirements set out in current legislation
are met.
(4)
According to Law No. 12,973/14, the income from foreign subsidiaries
must be taxed at the Brazilian statutory tax rate of 34%, and the income tax paid abroad by these subsidiaries may be used to compensate
income taxes to be paid in Brazil. The results obtained from foreign subsidiaries are subject to taxation by the countries where they
are based, according to applicable rates and legislation (profits taxed by-foreign jurisdictions included in the reconciliation of income
tax and social contribution expense). The Group analyzes the results of each subsidiary for the application of its income tax legislation,
in order to respect the treaties signed by Brazil and avoid double taxation.
(5)
Refers to donations made by the indirect subsidiary JBS S.A.,
as described in note 25 - Expenses by nature.

Global
Minimum Tax
From
the 2024 calendar year onward, Pillar II rules came into effect in various jurisdictions, impacting multinationals operating in these
markets.
Since
the Group operates in several jurisdictions that adopted the global minimum tax from 2024, including Australia, Canada, France, Ireland,
Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, the Company assessed the potential impact of these regulations. Based on current
assessments, the Company has not identified any significant tax exposure resulting from this tax.

Additions for each category includes transfers from construction
in progress during the period.
(2)
Of the total amount of additions net of transfers, US$267
refers to the acquisition of JBS Terminais Ltda.
For the nine-month period ended September
30, 2025, the amount of capitalized interest added to construction in progress and included in additions was US$25,509 (US$26,156 for
the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024).
For the nine-month period ended September
30, 2025, the capitalization rate used was 5.15% p.y. (5.82% p.y. for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024)
The Group assesses the recoverability
of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When
future undiscounted cash flows of assets are estimated to be insufficient to recover their related carrying value, the Group compares
the asset’s estimated future cash flows, discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate, to its current carrying
value and records a provision for impairment as appropriate. The indirect subsidiary JBS USA recognized an impairment of property, plant
and equipment in the amount of US$844, related to the restructuring of its indirectly held subsidiary, Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (PPC).
12 Leases
The Group uses the optional exemption to not recognize a right
of use asset and lease liability for short term (less than 12 months) and low value leases. The average discount rate used for measuring
lease liabilities was 5.45% at September 30, 2025 (5.08% at September 30, 2024).

between consideration paid to purchase a business and the net fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entity.
Goodwill is recognized as an asset and included in “Goodwill” in the Statement of Financial Position. Goodwill is related to
an expectation of future earnings of the acquired subsidiary after assets and liabilities are combined with the Group and cost savings
resulting from synergies expected to be achieved upon the integration of the acquired business.

the reorganization of its Cash-Generating Units (CGUs), driven by restructuring initiatives at its indirect subsidiary, Pilgrim’s
Pride Corporation (“PPC”), in Europe. This reorganization resulted in the redefinition of the structure of the CGUs “PPC
- Brands and Snacking” and “PPC - Meals”, which were consolidated into the new CGU “PPC - Added Value.”
No impairment loss was recognized for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 as a result of this reorganization.

JBS S.A. initiates transactions with financial institutions
that allow the suppliers to anticipate their receivables in the domestic market. Apart from an insignificant extension of payment terms,
there was no operational or commercial change in the process, and the aforementioned discounted risk transaction does not lead to a change
in the prices practiced by suppliers, maintaining the same price composition that was in place prior to the discounted risk operation
by these same suppliers. Additionally, this operation did not incur any other burdens for the Group and all financial costs of the operation
are the responsibility of the suppliers.
Commitment to Purchase for Future Delivery
The indirect subsidiary JBS S.A. has commitments
to purchase cattle for future delivery signed with certain suppliers, in which the Group guarantees the acquisition of cattle for a fixed
price, or to be fixed, with no cash effect on the Group until the cattle are delivered. Based on these future delivery contracts, JBJ
Agropecuária Ltda. has already advanced this operation with the banks under the supply chain finance method. As of September 30,
2025, the amount of this transaction was US$155,840 (US$58,944 at December 31, 2024), this operation is recognized as supply chain finance.

Civil legal proceedings (probable loss):
United States
The civil legal proceedings involve class-action
lawsuits alleging violations of federal and state antitrust laws, as well as laws governing unfair competition, unjust enrichment, unusual
business practices, and consumer protection related to beef, pork and chicken sales, as well as Canada and US State Matters.
The Group, together with its legal department
and external counsel, continues to monitor the progress of the antitrust cases and believes that the accounting provisions recorded as
of the date of these interim financial statements are sufficient to cover the associated risk.

did not identify significant changes in the estimates of range of loss related to legal provisions which the probability of loss is considered
possible.
●
Brazil
a. Profits abroad
Between the calendar years 2006 and
2018, the indirect subsidiary JBS S.A. was subject to assessments arising from tax charges on profits earned abroad that were supposed
to be included in the IRPJ and CSLL calculation basis, also including invoices disallowances paid by investees abroad, on the grounds
that they could not have been used to offset IRPJ and CSLL due in Brazil. These charges also involve the imposition of officio fines,
isolated fines and interest. JBS S.A. clarifies that a large part of the collection of IRPJ and CSLL on profits from abroad refers to
profits from investees located in jurisdictions with which Brazil has agreements to avoid double taxation. In addition, a relevant part
of the charge covers the discussion regarding the formal requirements demanded by the inspection authorities for the purposes of consolidating
the results abroad of its direct or indirect investees, and it is certain that JBS S.A. disagrees with the criteria applied by the inspection
authorities and has submitted a defense. For almost all of the debts, JBS S.A. is defending itself at the administrative level and is
awaiting judgment. JBS S.A. assessed the relevant tax rulings, verifying any divergences in relation to the tax positions adopted by JBS
S.A.. Based on this analysis, and taking into account legal opinions and applicable jurisprudence, JBS S.A. has a provision in the total
amount of US$750 million, referring to the divergence of positions on the taxation of profits of affiliates abroad in countries with international
agreements recorded and reducing the heading of recoverable taxes, reflecting the probability of future realization of these amounts.

(including frozen cooked and pre-cooked beef, corned cooked beef, beef cubes and consumer-ready products, such as hamburgers and sausages).
We also operate lamb, pork, and fish, processing facilities in Australia and New Zealand, including the recently acquired Huon and Rivalea

Fair value of assets and liabilities
through profit or loss: The Group determine fair value measurements in accordance with the hierarchical levels that reflect the significance
of the inputs used in the measurement, with the exception of those maturing in the short term, equity instruments without an active market
and contracts with discretionary characteristics that the fair value cannot be measured reliably, according to the following levels:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets
(unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1, in
which prices are quoted for similar assets and liabilities, either directly by obtaining prices in active markets or indirectly through
valuation techniques that use data from active markets;

Fair value of assets and liabilities
carried at amortized cost: The fair value of the Notes, are estimated using the closing sale price of these securities informed by
a financial newswire on September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, considering there is an active market for these financial instruments.
The book value of the remaining fixed-rate loans approximates fair value since the interest rate market, the Group’s credit quality,
and other market factors have not significantly changed since entering into the loans. The book value of variable-rate loans and financings
approximates fair value given the interest rates adjust for changes in market conditions and the quality of the Group’s credit rating
has not substantially changed. For all other financial assets and liabilities, book value approximates fair value due to the short duration
of the instruments. The following details the estimated fair value of notes:

c. Commodity price risk
The Group operates globally (the entire
livestock protein chain and related business) and during the regular course of its operations is exposed to price fluctuations in feeder
cattle, live cattle, lean hogs, corn, soybeans, and energy, especially in the North American, Australian and Brazilian markets. Commodity
markets are characterized by volatility arising from external factors including climate, supply levels, transportation costs, agricultural
policies and storage costs, among others. The Risk Management Department is responsible for mapping the exposures to commodity prices
of the Group and proposing strategies to the Risk Management Committee, in order to mitigate such exposures.

c2. Hedge accounting:
The indirect subsidiary Seara Alimentos
Ltda. applies hedge accounting for grain purchases, aiming at bringing stability to the results. The designation of these instruments
is based on the guidelines outlined in the Financial and Commodity Risk Management Policy defined by the Risk Management Committee and
approved by the Board of Directors.
Financial instruments designated for
hedge accounting were classified as cash flow hedge. The effective amount of the instrument’s gain or loss is recognized under “Other
comprehensive income (expense)” and the ineffective amount under “Financial income (expense), net”, and the accumulated
gains and losses are reclassified to profit and loss or to the balance sheet when the object is recognized, adjusting the item in which
the hedged object was recorded.
In these hedge relationships, the main
sources of ineffectiveness are the effect of the counterparties and the Group’s own credit risk on the fair value of the forward
foreign exchange contracts, which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change
in exchange rates; changes in commodities prices; and changes in the timing of the hedged transactions.
The effects on the income for the period,
on other comprehensive income, and on the balance sheet of derivative financial instruments contracted for hedging foreign exchange, commodity
prices, and interest rates are presented below:

fair value hedge accounting.

Includes interest on all loans and financing outstanding. Payments
are estimated for variable rate debt based on effective interest rates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and for the
year ended December 31, 2024. Payments in foreign currencies are estimated using the September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 exchange
rates.
The Group has future commitment for purchase
of grains and cattle whose balances as of September 30, 2025 is US$33.5 billion (December 31, 2024 is US$33.5 billion).
The Group has securities pledged as collateral
for derivative transactions with the commodities and futures whose balance as of September 30, 2025 is US$553,846 (US$136,554 at December
31, 2024). This guarantee exceeds the amount of the collateral.
A future breach of covenant may require
the Group to repay the loan earlier than indicated in the above table.
The interest payments on variable interest
rate loans and bond issues in the table above reflect market forward interest rates at the reporting date and these amounts may change
as market interest rates change. The future cash flows on derivative instruments may be different from the amount in the above table as
interest rates and exchange rates or the relevant conditions underlying the derivative change. Except for these financial liabilities,
it is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier, or at significantly different
amounts.

e. Risks linked to climate
change and the sustainability strategy
In view the Group’s operations, there is inherent exposure
to risks related to climate change. Certain Group assets, which are mainly biological assets that can be measured at fair value, may be
impacted by climate change and are considered in the preparation process of this interim financial information.
For the nine-month period ended September
30, 2025, Management considered the data and assumptions highlighted below as the main risks:
(i) possible
impacts on the determination of fair value in biological assets due to the effects of climate change, such as temperature rise and scarcity
of water resources which may impact some assumptions used in accounting estimates related to the Group’s biological assets, as follows:
●
losses of biological assets due to heat waves and droughts which
occur with greater frequency and intensity;
●
reduction in the expected growth of our biological assets due
to natural disasters, fires, pandemics or changes in rainfall patterns; and
●
interruption in the production chain due to adverse weather
events, causing power outages, fuel shortages, disruption of transportation channels, among other things.
(ii) structural
changes and their impacts on the business, such as:
●
regulatory and legal: regulation and legislation arising from
Brazilian and/or international authorities that encourage the transition to a low-carbon economy and/or with greater biodiversity and
that increase the risk of litigation and/or commercial restrictions related to the alleged contribution, even if indirect, for the intensification
of climate change;
●
reputational: related to customers’ perceptions and the
society in general regarding the positive or negative contribution of an organization to a low carbon economy.
