MANAGEMENT COMMENTS

The Company's Management is pleased to present the operating and financial performance for the first quarter 2024 (1Q24), shown in detail in the respective reports and statements.

Initially, worthy of note is the reduction in Gross Leasable Area in 1Q24 compared with 1Q23 due to the sale of a stake in Parque Shopping Barueri, but partially offset by the inauguration of the Outlet Premium São Paulo expansion.

Gross revenue in 1Q24 reported growth of 9.1% to R$ 47.1 million, weighted by the reduction in Rental Revenues of 2.1% and a growth in Services Revenue of 16.5% when compared with 1Q23.

With respect to Same Areas performance, Same Area Rentals posted a decrease of 4.3%, in 1Q24 when compared with the same period in 2023 and a year-on-year growth in Same Area Sales of 4.7%.

The Company's occupancy rate increased in the quarter to reach 94.1% in 1Q24 compared with 93.7% relative to the same item in 1Q23.

In regard to the Costs of Rentals and Services, there was an increase of 8.7% compared to 1Q23, reaching R$ 12.6 million, impacted by occupancy costs as well as payroll overheads.

NOI reached R$ 29.0 million in 1Q24, an increase of 12.6% in relation to the same period in 2023 and corresponding to a 70.0% margin.

General and Administrative Expenses recorded a reduction of 3.6% in 1Q24, when compared to 1Q23, impacted largely by a reduction in non-recurring expenses.

The Company's Adjusted EBITDA in 1Q24 posted a year-on-year increase of 7.0%, reaching R$ 15.4 million, equivalent to an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 37.2%.

The Net Financial Result in the quarter was largely impacted by the US Dollar x Real exchange variation, registering a negative R$ 99.9 million in 1Q24 relative compared to a negative R$ 11.4 million in 1Q23.

We would like to take the opportunity to thank our employees, tenants, customers and visitors for their invaluable contributions.
