Call Option on Perpetual Foreign Currency Debt Instruments: We just announced the call option on two perpetual foreign currency debt instruments, totaling approximately USD 1.5 billion and two tranches of USD 750 million each alongside our second quarter '25 earnings release yesterday. Due to this call option, our AT1 ratio should converge to approximately 1.3%, which remains fully aligned with our capital appetite. This was feasible because of our liability management. We issued approximately BRL 5 billion in perpetual debt in the local market, which enabled us to exercise the call option on these instruments and repurchase them.
