NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS
We hereby announce to the shareholders of Ambev S.A. (“Company”) that, as indicated in the Minutes of the meeting of the Board of Directors held on July 29, 2026, the members of the Company’s Board of Directors approved:
| (i) | The payment of the third and final installment of interest on capital, the distribution of which was approved at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on December 9, 2025 and disclosed in the Notice to Shareholders published on the same date (“IOC December 2025”), and the payment of the first and second installments of IOC December 2025 was made on April 6, 2026, and July 6, 2026, respectively, as disclosed in the Notice to Shareholders of February 11, 2026 and May 4, 2026, respectively. The payment of the third and final installment of IOC December 2025 will be made on October 6, 2026, in the gross amount of R$ 0.1185 per share, corresponding to an estimated net amount of R$ 0.1007 per share of the Company, after the withholding of income tax (“IRRF”) pursuant to applicable legislation, totaling an aggregate net amount of approximately R$ 1,600,000,000.00. The record dates considered at the time the distribution was approved remain unchanged, namely December 18, 2025, with respect to B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão, and December 22, 2025, with respect to the New York Stock Exchange – NYSE, with no monetary adjustment. Shares and ADRs have been traded ex-IOC as from and including December 19, 2025. |
| (ii) | The distribution of interest on capital based on the profit for the period and the available balances reflected in the extraordinary balance sheet dated June 30, 2026 (the preparation of which was also approved by the Board of Directors at a meeting held on July 29, 2026), in the gross amount of R$ 0.0713 per share of the Company, totaling an aggregate gross amount of approximately R$ 1,100,000,000.00 (“IOC July 2026”). The IOC July 2026 will be offset against the mandatory minimum dividend for the fiscal year 2026. The distribution will be subject to taxation in accordance with the applicable legislation, and the Company will withhold the applicable IRRF prior to the payment of IOC July 2026, which will result in an estimated net distribution of R$ 0.0588 per share of the Company[1]. |
[1] Considers the standard withholding tax rate of 17.5%, which may change due to tax immunities and exemptions, pursuant to Article 5 of Law No. 11,053/04, as amended by Law No. 11,196/05, or due to international treaties entered into with jurisdictions deemed to have favorable taxation or privileged tax regimes.
The aforementioned payment will be made by December 31, 2026, considering the shareholding position of September 21, 2026, with respect to B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão, and September 23, 2026, with respect to the New York Stock Exchange – NYSE, with no monetary adjustment. The shares and ADRs shall be traded ex-IOC as from and including September 22, 2026. The exact payment date will be determined at a future meeting of the Company's Board of Directors and duly disclosed to the market.
The Company reaffirms its commitment to creating value for shareholders and to maintaining high standards of transparency in the disclosure of material information to the market.
