Dear Officer,

Bradesco projects growth between 15% and 20% in the direct agribusiness portfolio in 2026, now estimated in R$ 120 billion, and intends to move forward exactly at a time of greater caution in rural credit. While the competitors reduce exposure and the capital market shrinks the offering of Agribusiness Receivables Certificates (CRA) and agribusiness funds (Fiagro), the bank affirms that it will expand the team and strengthen its presence at industry trade shows.
2. Considering the above, we request that you clarify the reasons why you believed that this was not a material fact, pursuant to the provisions of CVM Resolution No. 44/21.
3. It should be noted that, in accordance with Article 3 of CVM Resolution No. 44/21, the Investor Relations Officer is responsible for disclosure and communication to CVM and, if necessary, to stock exchanges and organized over-the-counter market entity in which the securities issued by the company are admitted to trading, any material act or fact that has occurred or is related to its business, as well as ensuring its wide and immediate dissemination, simultaneously in all markets where such securities are admitted to trading.
4. In addition, we highlight that the practice of disclosing to the market its expectations for future performance (guidance), both in short and long term, mainly with regard to the operational and financial aspects of its business, involves the preparation of quantitative projections.
