Shareholders, Board of Directors and Officers

Azul S.A.

Barueri - São Paulo

Introduction

We have reviewed the individual and consolidated interim financial information of Azul S.A. (Company) contained in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, which comprises the statement of financial position as at March 31, 2024 and the related statements of profit or loss, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity, and of cash flows for the three-month period then ended, and notes to the individual and consolidated interim financial information, including material accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Executive board’s responsibility for the interim financial information

The executive board is responsible for preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the fair presentation of this information in conformity with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). 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 auditing standards 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 on the individual and consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the quarterly information referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR), and presented consistently with the rules issued by the CVM.

Other matters

Statements of value added

The quarterly information referred to above includes the individual and consolidated statements of value added (SVA) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s executive board, and presented as supplementary information for IAS 34 purposes. These statements were subject to review procedures conducted jointly with the review of the quarterly information for the purpose of concluding whether they are reconciled with the interim financial information and accounting records, as applicable, and whether their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in NBC TG 09 – Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these statements of value added were not prepared, in all material respects, pursuant to such standard and consistently with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.

Azul S.A. (“Azul”), together with its subsidiaries (“Company”) is a corporation governed by its bylaws, as per Law No. 6404/76 and by the corporate governance level 2 listing regulation of B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3”). The Azul was incorporated on January 3, 2008, and its core business comprises the operation of regular and non-regular airline passenger services, cargo or mail, passenger charter, provision of maintenance and hangarage services for aircraft, engines, parts and pieces, aircraft acquisition and lease, development of frequent-flyer programs, development of related activities and equity holding in other companies since the beginning of its operations on December 15, 2008.

The Azul carries out its activities through its subsidiaries, mainly Azul Linhas Aéreas Brasileiras S.A. (“ALAB”) and Azul Conecta Ltda. (“Conecta”), which hold authorization from government authorities to operate as airlines and ATS Viagens e Turismo Ltda (“Azul Viagens”).

The Azul shares are traded on B3 and on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under tickers AZUL4 and AZUL, respectively.

The Azul is headquartered at Avenida Marcos Penteado de Ulhôa Rodrigues, 939, 8^th floor, in the city of Barueri, state of São Paulo, Brazil.

The Company organizational structure as of March 31, 2024 is as follows:

	AZUL S.A. Notes to the interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements March 31, 2024 (In thousands of Brazilian reais – R$, unless otherwise indicated)

The table below lists the operational activities in which the Azul subsidiaries are engaged, as well as the changes in ownership that occurred in period, when applicable.

The Company’s operating revenues depend substantially on the general volume of passenger and cargo traffic, which is subject to seasonal changes. Our passenger revenues are generally higher during the summer and winter holidays, in January and July respectively, and in the last two weeks of December, which corresponds to the holiday season. Considering the distribution of fixed costs, this seasonality tends to cause variations in operating results between periods of the fiscal year.

2.1       Contextualization

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Azul's Management continued the process of restructuring its debts as presented in detail in this interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements.

2.2 Net working capital and capital structure

As of March 31, 2024, the Company's working capital and liquid equity position are as shown below:

The positive variation in the balance of net working capital, which represents a reduction in the deficit of approximately 1.6%, is a consequence of the company's restructuring actions.

	AZUL S.A. Notes to the interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements March 31, 2024 (In thousands of Brazilian reais – R$, unless otherwise indicated)

The negative variation of equity is mainly due to the Company's negative financial result, which exceeds by R$1,057,075 the operating profit.

In view of the above, management assessed and concluded that the Company is capable of continuing its operations and fulfilling its obligations in accordance with the contracted maturities. This assessment is based on the Company's business plan approved by the Board of Directors in December, 2023. The Company's business plans include planned future actions, macroeconomic and aviation sector assumptions, such as level of demand for air transport with corresponding increase in traffic and fares, estimated exchange rates and fuel prices. The Company's Management monitors and informs the Board of Directors about performance in relation to the approved plan.

Based on this conclusion, this interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements were prepared based on the going concern principle operational.

The Company’s interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), specifically IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting practices adopted in Brazil include those included in the Brazilian corporation law and the technical pronouncements, guidelines and interpretations issued by the Accounting Pronouncements Committee (“CPC”), approved by the Federal Accounting Council (“CFC”) and the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (“CVM”).

The Company’s interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the real (“R$”) as a functional and presentation currency. All currencies shown are expressed in thousands unless otherwise noted.

The Company operates mainly through its aircraft and other assets that support flight operations, making up its cash generating unit (CGU) and its only reportable segment: air transport.

The preparation of the Company's interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements requires Management to make judgments, use estimates and adopt assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. However, the uncertainty related to these judgments, assumptions and estimates can lead to results that require a significant adjustment to the carrying amount of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses in future years.

When preparing these interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements of the Company, Management used the following disclosure criteria to understand the changes observed in the equity and in its performance, since the end of the last fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, disclosed on April 12, 2024: (i) regulatory requirements; (ii) relevance and specificity of the information on the operations; (iii) informational needs of users of the interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements; and (iv) information from other entities participating in the passenger air transport market and cargo.

	AZUL S.A. Notes to the interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements March 31, 2024 (In thousands of Brazilian reais – R$, unless otherwise indicated)

36.2.3.1       Sensitivity analysis

	AZUL S.A. Notes to the interim condensed individual and consolidated financial statements March 31, 2024 (In thousands of Brazilian reais – R$, unless otherwise indicated)

Credit risk is inherent to the Company's operating and financial activities, mainly disclosed in cash and cash equivalents, long-term investments, accounts receivable, aircraft sublease, security deposits and maintenance reserves. Financial assets classified as cash and cash equivalents are deposited with counterparties that have a minimum investment grade rating in the assessment made by agencies S&P Global Ratings, Moody's or Fitch. The TAP Bond is guaranteed by intellectual property rights and credits related to the TAP mileage program.

Credit limits are established for all customers based on internal classification criteria and the carrying amounts represent the maximum credit risk exposure. Outstanding receivables from customers are frequently monitored by the Company and, when necessary, allowances for expected credit losses are recognized.

Derivative financial instruments are contracted on the over-the-counter market (OTC) from counterparties with a minimum investment grade rating with the company, or on commodities and futures exchanges (B3 and NYMEX), which substantially mitigates the credit risk. The Company assesses the risks of counterparties in financial instruments and diversifies its exposure periodically.

The maturity schedules of the Company’s consolidated financial liabilities as of March 31, 2024 are as follows:
