ULTRAPAR PARTICIPAÇÕES S.A.
Participation in capital increase of Hidrovias do Brasil
São Paulo, August 30, 2024 – Ultrapar Participações S.A. (B3: UGPA3 / NYSE: UGP, “Ultrapar”), in compliance with CVM Resolution 44/21, through its subsidiary Ultrapar Logística Ltda., hereby informs that it publicly assumed on this date its intention to exercise its preemptive right in the subscription of shares to be issued by Hidrovias do Brasil S.A. (B3: HBSA3, “HBSA”) due to the capital increase of up to R$ 1.5 billion to be approved by the general shareholders’ meeting of HBSA, through the issuance for private subscription of new common shares, at an issue price of R$ 3.40/share.
As disclosed by HBSA on this date, said capital increase aims to strengthen HBSA's capital structure in order to enable the implementation of its growth plan and value generation, including by carrying out of the investments foreseen therein and reducing the level of indebtedness.
The subscription of HBSA shares reinforces the alignment of Ultrapar's strategy of expanding its presence in sectors exposed to the Brazilian agribusiness, as well as Ultrapar's role as a strategic long-term reference shareholder of HBSA, supporting its growth, governance and management model.
The Company will maintain the market and its shareholders duly informed.
