9.1 | ICMS – tax on movement of goods and services and VAT – value added taxes |
As result of the activity, the Company generates recoverable ICMS balances that are offset against ICMS payables arising from sales in the domestic market or that are transferred to third parties.
The Company has recoverable ICMS balances in the States of Paraná, Santa Catarina, Mato Grosso do Sul, Minas Gerais and Amazonas, which will be realized in the short and long term, based on the recoverability study reviewed and approved by the Management.
In other jurisdictions outside Brazil, value added taxes (VAT) are due in regular operations of the Company with goods and services, with expectations of achievement in the short and long term.
On October 16, 2024, BRF and Marfrig entered into an agreement for the acquisition of up to R$350,000 of ICMS credits accrued in the State of São Paulo owned by Marfrig, with a market-compatible discount applied. The utilization will be carried out according to the Company's monthly assessment in the State, with total compensation expected by July 2025.

9.2 | PIS and COFINS – social integration plan and contribution for social security |
The accumulated recoverable PIS and COFINS balances arise from taxes on raw material purchases subsequently used in the production of exported products or products for which sale is not taxed, as well as recoverable taxes on commercial and labor expenses. The realization of these balances usually occurs through the offsetting with taxes payable on sales of taxed products in the domestic market, with other federal taxes and social security contributions payable, or even, if necessary, through refund or reimbursement requests.
As of March 31, 2025, the updated balance of the processes related to the exclusion of ICMS from the PIS and COFINS calculation basis recognized by the Company is R$1,654,979 (R$1,720,431 as of December 31, 2024). The monetary update of balances is recognized against Net financial income (expenses).
9.3 | IPI – industrialized product tax |
The Company has recognized tax assets as a result of gains from lawsuits related to IPI, especially “crédito prêmio”. The balance referring to these assets in the Parent Company and Consolidated on March 31, 2025, is R$1,185,146 (R$1,185,146 on December 31, 2024), of which R$1,162,991 (R$1,162,991 on December 31, 2024) is recorded as Recoverable Taxes and the remainder, referring to cases in which the government will reimburse in cash, is recorded as Other Non-Current Assets, in the amount of R$22,155 (R$22,155 on December 31, 2024). The monetary update of balances is recognized against Net financial income (expenses).
9.4 | Income taxes |
The accumulated recoverable income taxes arise, mostly, from withholding taxes on securities, interest and prepayments of income tax and social contribution in Brazil. The realization occurs through the offset with federal taxes and contributions payable.
9.5 | Realization of Brazilian federal tax credits |
The Company used recoverable balances of PIS, COFINS, IPI, and Other to offset federal taxes payable such as INSS, Income Taxes, and Other in the amount of R$297,337 for the period ended on March 31, 2025 (R$1,433,559 for the year ended on December 31, 2024), preserving its liquidity and optimizing its capital structure.

The Company has partnerships with several financial institutions that allow suppliers to anticipate their receivables and, therefore, transfer the right to receive invoices with financial institutions (“Supply Chain Finance” or “Program”). Suppliers have the freedom to choose whether or not to anticipate their receivables and with which financial institution, with no participation by BRF.
The Program can generate benefits in the commercial relations of BRF and its suppliers, such as preference and priority of supply in cases of restricted supply, better commercial conditions, among others, without modifying the commercial essence of the relationship.
Invoices included in the Program are paid according to the same price and term conditions negotiated with its suppliers, without incurring any charge to the Company, so that there are no changes in commercial conditions after negotiation and invoicing of goods or services.
The balances of invoices included in the Supply Chain Finance are R$4,253,222 in the Parent Company and R$4,463,599 in the Consolidated on March 31, 2025 (R$4,735,503 in the Parent Company and R$4,942,713 in the Consolidated on December 31, 2024). The average payment term agreed with suppliers who choose to participate in the Program is substantially similar to the average payment term agreed with non-participating suppliers.
The Company measures and discriminates the adjustment to present value for all its commercial operations carried out in installments, specifying financial and operational items.

23.2 | Market risk management |
23.2.1 | Foreign exchange risk |
The risk is the one that may cause unexpected losses to the Company resulting from volatility of the FX rates,
reducing its assets and revenues or increasing its liabilities and costs. The Company’s exposure is managed
in three dimensions: statement of financial position exposure, operating income exposure and investments
exposure.

![]() |
Interim Financial Information, Individual and Consolidated | March 31, 2025 |
i) Statement of financial position exposure
The Risk Policy regarding statement of financial position exposure has the objective to balance assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, hedging the Company’s statement of financial position by using natural hedges, over-the-counter derivatives and exchange traded futures.
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency for which the exchange variations are recognized in the Financial Results are as follows, summarized in Brazilian Reais:
Consolidated | ||||
03.31.25 | 12.31.24 | |||
Cash and cash equivalents | 4,465,305 | 4,276,065 | ||
Trade accounts receivable | 6,441,930 | 6,238,093 | ||
Trade accounts payable | (2,514,027) | (1,377,169) | ||
Loans and borrowings | (9,866,599) | (9,726,343) | ||
Other assets and liabilities, net | 2,621,191 | 1,570,012 | ||
Exposure of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies | 1,147,800 | 980,658 | ||
Derivative financial instruments (hedge) | (371,958) | (773,197) | ||
Exposure in result, net | 775,842 | 207,461 |
The net exposure in Reais is mainly composed of the following currencies:
Net Exposure (1) | 03.31.25 | 12.31.24 | ||
U.S. Dollars (USD) | (51,429) | (2,052,569) | ||
Euros (EUR) | 334,603 | 1,879,079 | ||
Yen (JPY) | (747) | (1,501) | ||
Angolan kwanza (AOA) | 32,295 | 36,366 | ||
Turkish Liras (TRY) | 329,387 | 267,834 | ||
Argentinian Peso (ARS) | (2,443) | (2,125) | ||
Chilean Pesos (CLP) | 134,176 | 80,377 | ||
Total | 775,842 | 207,461 |
(1) The Company is exposed to other currencies, although they have been grouped in the currencies above due to its high correlation
or for not being individually significant.
The Company holds more financial liabilities in foreign currencies than assets and, therefore, holds derivative financial instruments to reduce such exposure.
As a result of this protection strategy, the Company recognized under Financial Expenses in the Consolidated an income from foreign exchange derivatives of R$50,847 for the period ended March 31, 2025 (income of R$73,185 in the same period of the previous year). The exchange rate variation of assets and liabilities in the Consolidated resulted in an expense of R$12,196 for the period ended March 31, 2025 (expense of R$79,211 for the period ended March 31, 2024).

ii) Operating income exposure
The Risk Policy regarding operating income exposure has the objective to hedge revenues and costs denominated in foreign currencies. The Company is supported by internal models to measure and monitor these risks, and uses financial instruments for hedging, designating the relations as cash flow hedges.
The Company has more sales in foreign currency than expenditures and, therefore, holds derivative financial instruments to reduce such exposure.
As a result of this protection strategy, the Company recognized under Consolidated Net Revenue an expense of R$36,771 for the period ended March 31, 2025 (income of R$47,437 in the same period of the previous year).

iii) Investments exposure
The Company holds both investments (net assets) and loans (financial liabilities) denominated in foreign currency. To balance the accounting effects of such exposures, some non-derivative financial liabilities are designated as hedging instruments for the investments exposure.
|

Interim Financial Information, Individual and Consolidated | March 31, 2025 |
As a result of this strategy, the Company recognized an income of R$103,071, net of income tax, under Other comprehensive income for the period ended March 31, 2025 (expense of R$38,880 in the same period of the previous year).

23.2.2 | Commodities price risk |
The Company uses commodities as production inputs and is exposed to commodities price risk arising from future purchases. The management of such risk is performed through physical inventories, future purchases at fixed price and through derivative financial instruments.
The Risk Policy establishes coverage limits to the flow of purchases of corn, meal and soy, soybeans and soybean oil with the purpose of reducing the impact due to a price increase of these raw materials. The hedge may be reached using derivatives or by inventory management.
As a result of this protection strategy, the Company recognized under Consolidated Cost of Goods Sold an expense of R$13,175 for the period ended March 31, 2025 (expense of R$120,742 for the period ended March 31, 2024).
The Company performs purchases at variable prices in future and spot markets and, to hedge such exposure, it holds derivative financial instruments in long position (buy) to fix these prices in advance.
The financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the variable commodities price exposure on March 31, 2025, are set forth below:

In certain cases, the Company performs futures purchases at fixed prices and, to hedge such exposure, it
holds derivative financial instruments in short position (sell) to keep these prices at market value. The financial instruments designated as fair value hedges for the fixed commodities price exposure on March
31, 2025, are set forth below:

The outstanding and settled derivative instruments of commodity risk hedging strategies represent effects on the balance sheet of: i) the Inventories item in the Consolidated in the debit amount of R$9,868 on March 31, 2025 (R$41,538 credit on March 31, 2024); ii) the other comprehensive income item in the credit amount of R$29,996 on March 31, 2025 (R$29,447 credit on December 31, 2024).
23.2.3 | Interest rate risk |
The interest rate risk may cause economic losses to the Company resulting from volatility in interest rates that affect its assets and liabilities.
The Company’s Risk Policy does not restrict exposure to different interest rates, neither establishes limits for fixed or floating rates. However, the Company continually monitors the market interest rates in order to evaluate any need to enter into hedging transactions to protect from the volatility of such rates and manage the mismatch between its financial assets and liabilities.
As a result of this protection strategy, the Company recognized under Financial Income and Expenses an income of R$119,768 for the period ended March 31, 2025 (expense of R$105,375 in the same period of the previous year).
The derivative financial instruments used to hedge the exposure to interest rates as of March 31, 2025 are presented in the table below:

23.3 | Credit risk management |
The Company is exposed to the credit risk related to the financial assets held: trade and non-trade accounts receivable, marketable securities, derivative instruments and cash and equivalents. The Company’s credit risk exposure can be assessed in notes 4, 5 and 6.
23.3.1 | Credit risk in accounts receivable |
The credit risk associated with trade accounts receivable is actively managed through specific systems and is supported by internal policies for credit analysis. The significant level of diversification and geographical dispersion of the customer portfolio significantly reduces the risk. However, the Company chooses to complement the risk management by contracting insurance policies for specific markets. The impairment of these financial assets is carried out based on expected credit losses.
23.3.2 | Counterparty credit risk |
The credit risk associated with marketable securities, cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments in general is directed to counterparties with Investment Grade ratings. The maintenance of assets with counterparty risk is constantly assessed according to credit ratings and the Company’s portfolio concentration, aligned with the applicable impairment requisites.
23.4 | Capital management and liquidity risk |
The Company is exposed to liquidity risk as far as it needs cash or other financial assets to settle its obligations in the respective terms. The Company’s cash and liquidity strategy takes into consideration historical volatility scenarios of results as well as simulations of sectorial and systemic crisis. It is grounded on allowing resilience in scenarios of capital restriction.

Interim Financial Information, Individual and Consolidated | March 31, 2025 |
23.5 | Sensitivity analysis |
Management believes that the most relevant risks that may affect the Company’s results, for which it uses derivative financial instruments to protect, are the volatility of commodities prices, foreign exchange rates and interest rates.
For the probable scenario of commodities, Management uses as a reference the future value of assets on March 31, 2025 and therefore understands that there will be no changes in the results of operations. As for the exchange rate, Management uses the Focus report for the American Dollar as a reference inserting the quotes for the current and subsequent years. The likely scenario for other currencies is determined based on the US Dollar parity.
In the possible and remote scenarios, both positive and negative variations of 15% and 30% respectively were considered in both cases from the probable scenario. Such sensitivity scenarios originate from information and assumptions used by Management in monitoring the previously mentioned risks.
The information used in the preparation of the analysis is based on the position as of March 31, 2025, which has been described in the items above. The estimated values may differ significantly to numbers and results that will be effectively registered by the Company. Positive values indicate gains and negative values indicate losses.

23.7 | Fair value of financial instruments |
The fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Depending on the inputs used for measurement, the financial instruments at fair value may be classified into 3 hierarchy levels:
» | Level 1 - Uses quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets. In this category are classified investments in stocks, savings accounts, overnights, term deposits, Financial Treasury Bills (“LFT”) and investment funds; |
» | Level 2 - Uses prices quoted in active markets for similar instruments, prices quoted for identical or similar instruments in non-active markets and evaluation models for which inputs are observable. In this level are classified the investments in Bank Deposit Certificates (“CDB”) and derivatives, which are measured by well-known pricing models: discounted cash flows and Black-Scholes. The observable inputs are interest rates and curves, volatility factors and foreign exchange rates; |
» | Level 3 - Instruments for which significant inputs are non-observable. The Company does not have financial instruments in this category. |
The table below presents the classification of financial instruments recorded at fair value by measurement hierarchy. Throughout the period ended March 31, 2025, there were no changes among the 3 levels of hierarchy.

(“BRF” and, together with Marfrig, the “Companies”) approved the execution, between the Companies, of the Plan of Merger of Shares of BRF S.A. by Marfrig Global Foods S.A. (the “Plan of Merger”), which sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the merger by Marfrig of all shares issued by BRF (other than BRF shares held by Marfrig) as of the Closing Date (as defined below). In exchange, BRF's shareholders (except Marfrig) will receive common shares issued by Marfrig, in accordance with the Share Exchange Ratio (as defined below), thus resulting in the transfer of BRF’s shareholder base to Marfrig (the “Merger of Shares”). The Plan of Merger, the Merger of Shares, and related matters will be submitted for approval by the extraordinary general meetings of the Companies. Following the completion of the Merger of Shares, BRF will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
As a result of the Merger of Shares, BRF shareholders (except Marfrig) will receive 0.8521 common shares issued by Marfrig for each one (1) common share issued by BRF held at the completion date of the Merger of Shares, as set forth in the Plan of Merger (“Closing Date” and “Share Exchange Ratio,” respectively). The completion of the Merger of Shares will be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver, as the case may be) of certain conditions set forth in the Plan of Merger and the occurrence of the Closing Date.
The negotiation and determination of the Share Exchange Ratio considered the distribution of dividends and/or interest on equity in the gross amounts of (i) BRL 3,520,000,000.00 (three billion, five hundred and twenty million reais) by BRF; and (ii) BRL 2,500,000,000.00 (two billion, five hundred million reais) by Marfrig, in both cases to be resolved by the Closing Date (inclusive) (together, the “Permitted Distributions”).
The Share Exchange Ratio will be adjusted solely (i) in the event of share splits, reverse share splits, or in-kind share dividends issued by either Company; and/or (ii) pursuant to the methodology set forth in the Plan of Merger. Under the methodology described in the Plan of Merger, any payments made by the Companies in connection with the exercise of withdrawal rights will proportionally reduce the Permitted Distributions by an equivalent amount applied to both Companies.
The Company continues to evaluate the financial and operational impacts arising from the Merger of Shares but emphasizes that it sees significant strategic value added through the Merger of Shares. This transaction is expected to drive the global consolidation of its businesses and strengthen its brands through a robust multi-protein platform, including, among other advantages: (i) bolstering the Companies' presence as leaders in the global food market; (ii) achieving strategic expansion into new markets, maximizing growth opportunities and commercial synergies, including cross-selling initiatives; and (iii) enhancing operational scale and diversification, thereby improving resilience and mitigating risks associated with the sector’s seasonality and macroeconomic variables.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INDIVIDUAL AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors and Management of
BRF S.A.
Itajaí – SC
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of BRF S.A. (the Company), comprised in the Quarterly Information Form for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, comprising the balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and the respective statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows for the period of three months then ended, including the explanatory notes.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with NBC TG 21 – Interim Financial Reporting and with the international standard IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (Iasb), such as for the presentation of these information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission, applicable to the preparation of interim financial information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Review scope
We conducted our review in accordance with the Brazilian and International standards on review of interim information (NBC TR 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 – Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). The review of interim information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the 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 the standards on auditing 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 form referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NBC TG 21 and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of interim financial information and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission.

Other matters
Statements of value added
The quarterly information referred to above includes the individual and consolidated statements of value added for the period of three months ended March 31, 2025, prepared under the responsibility of the Company's management and presented as supplementary information for the purposes of IAS 34. These statements were submitted to the same review procedures in conjunction with the review of the Company's interim financial information to conclude they are reconciliated to the interim financial information and to the accounting records, as applicable, and whether the structure and content are in accordance with the criteria established in the NBC TG 09 - Statement of Value Added. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying statements of value added were not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance to the criteria defined in that standard and consistently in relation to the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
