Petrobras' shares are listed on the Brazilian stock exchange (B3) in the Level 2 Corporate Governance special listing segment and, therefore, the Company, its shareholders, its managers and fiscal council members are subject to provisions under its regulation (Level 2 Regulation - *Regulamento de Listagem do Nível 2 de Governança Corporativa da Brasil Bolsa Balcão* – B3). These Regulations shall prevail over the statutory provisions, in the event of prejudice to the rights of the recipients of public offerings provided for in the Company's Bylaws, except in certain cases, due to a specific rule.

The Company is dedicated to prospecting, drilling, refining, processing, trading and transporting crude oil from producing onshore and offshore oil fields and from shale or other rocks, as well as oil products, natural gas and other liquid hydrocarbons. In addition, Petrobras carries out energy related activities, such as research, development, production, transport, distribution and trading of all forms of energy, including activities related to the treatment and storage of carbon dioxide, energy transition and the low-carbon economy, as well as other related or similar activities.

Petrobras may perform any of the activities related to its corporate purpose, directly, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, controlled companies, alone or through joint ventures with third parties, in Brazil or abroad.

The economic activities linked to its business purpose shall be undertaken by the Company in free competition with other companies according to market conditions, in compliance with the other principles and guidelines of Laws no. 9,478/97 and 14,134/21 (oil and gas regulations, respectively). However, Petrobras may have its activities, provided they are in compliance with its corporate purpose, guided by the Brazilian Federal Government to contribute to the public interest that justified its creation, aiming to meet national energy policy objectives when:

I – established by law or regulation, as well as provided for under a contract, covenant, or adjustment agreed upon with a public entity that is competent to establish such obligation, abiding by the broad publicity of such instruments; and

II – the cost and revenues thereof have been broken down and disseminated in a transparent manner.

In this case, the Company's Investment Committee and Minority Shareholders Committee, exercising their advisory role to the Board of Directors, shall assess and measure the difference between such market conditions and the operating result or economic return of the transaction, based on technical and economic criteria for investment valuation and specific operating costs and results under the Company's operations. In case a difference is identified, for every financial year, the Brazilian Federal Government shall compensate the Company.

**1.1. Highlights of the year** 

Petrobras presented positive operational results in 2025, generating value for society and its shareholders. Debt remained within the gross debt level predicted in the 2025-2029 Business Plan (PN 25-29), reaching US$69.8 billion.

Total oil and gas production in 2025 was 2.99 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed). The main factors that resulted in this performance were: (i) increased production capacity of the FPSOs Almirante Tamandaré and Marechal Duque de Caxias; (ii) maintenance of peak production of the FPSO Sepetiba; (iii) ramp-up of the FPSOs Maria Quitéria, Anita Garibaldi, Anna Nery and Alexandre de Gusmão; (iv) greater operational efficiency, mainly on platforms in the Santos Basin; (v) lower volume of losses from maintenance shutdowns in the Campos Basin; and (vi) increased efficiency at the UPGN Boaventura Energy Complex and Rota 3 gas pipeline.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

In 2025, according to SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) criteria, the company maintained its trajectory of adding reserves, highlighting the Búzios, Tupi, Itapu, and Mero fields in the Santos Basin, the progress in the development of the Budião, Budião Noroeste, and Budião Sudeste fields in deep waters of the Sergipe-Alagoas Basin, and new well projects mainly in Búzios, Tupi, Marlim Sul, and Jubarte, in the Santos and Campos Basins. More details in Supplementary information on oil and natural gas exploration and production activities – unaudited.

![](pbrfs4q25rs6k_002.jpg)

Petrobras also estimates reserves according to the ANP/SPE (National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels / Society of Petroleum Engineers) criteria. As of December 31, 2025, proven reserves according to this criterion reached 12.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent. The main differences between the two criteria are detailed in note 4.1.

The resources from operational cash generation, as well as from proceeds from finance debt, were used for investments (note 23), debt service, lease amortizations (notes 30 and 31) and dividend payments (note 32).

![](pbrfs4q25rs6k_003.jpg)

The proposed allocation of the result to be submitted for deliberation at the 2026 Ordinary General Meeting, which considers the distribution of dividends for the 2025 financial year, is in line with the shareholder remuneration policy (note 32).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

![](pbrfs4q25rs6k_004.jpg)

Gross debt was primarily impacted by the leasing of new platforms (FPSOs), recognized as right-of-use and lease debt (notes 23 and 31).

![](pbrfs4q25rs6k_005.jpg)

The financial result in 2025 was mainly influenced by the gain from the exchange rate indexation of the real against the dollar (note 12).

In litigation, the highlight of the year was the reduction of unprovisioned labor contingencies, and the definitive closure, with a decision favorable to the company, of a class action involving the review of the methodology for calculating the RMNR supplement (note 20).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

![](pbrfs4q25rs6k_006.jpg)

The annual review of the actuarial liability for post-employment benefit plans resulted in an increase in liabilities, recognized as a contra-entry in shareholders' equity, mainly due to the higher rate of change in medical and hospital costs and the reduction in the discount rate (note 19).

The reduction in the total balance of the provision for decommissioning of areas in 2025 is mainly due to: (i) the appreciation of the real against the dollar; (ii) the revision of tariffs for activities related to the decommissioning of wells and equipment; and (iii) the increase in the risk-adjusted real discount rate (note 21). This review generated a reduction in liabilities as a contra-entry to property, plant and equipment (note 23), for oil fields in operation, and recognition of other operating income, mainly related to fields in the process of being returned (note 11).

The depreciation of the closing dollar also negatively impacted the results of impairment tests of non-financial assets, in addition to the effect on future cash flows from postponements of E&P projects (note 25).

The wealth generated by the company in 2025, amounting to R$386 billion (R$380 billion in 2024), was distributed as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. Basis of preparation and presentation of financial statements

The consolidated and individual (Parent Company) financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and with the pronouncements issued by the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (*Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis* - CPC) that were approved by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (*Comissão de Valores Mobiliários* – CVM).

All relevant information related to financial statements, and only them, are presented and corresponds to the information used by the Company's Management.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except when otherwise indicated.

In preparing these financial statements, Management used judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting practices and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The relevant estimates and judgments that require a higher level of complexity are disclosed in note 4.

To enhance the understanding of its financial position, the Company made certain changes to the presentation of the consolidated financial statements for the previous years, and applied to the current year, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· renaming *marketable securities* to *financial investments* in assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· renaming *recoverable income taxes* to *income taxes* in current assets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· renaming *income taxes payable*, including *deferred income taxes payable*, to income taxes and deferred income taxes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· disaggregation of the item *income taxes* in
non-current assets, previously presented within *other taxes recoverable*; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· disaggregation of the item *prepayments* in
current and non-current assets, previously presented within *others assets*.

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Company's Board of Directors in a meeting held on March 5, 2026.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1. Statement of added value

Brazilian corporate law requires publicly-held companies to prepare a Statement of Added Value and disclose it as an integral part of the set of financial statements.

This statement was prepared in accordance with Technical Pronouncement CPC 09 (R1) - Statement of Added Value, approved by CVM Resolution 199/24.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2. Functional currency

The functional currency of Petrobras and all of its Brazilian subsidiaries is the Brazilian Real, which is the currency of its primary economic environment of operation. The functional currency of the direct controlled entities that operate in the international economic environment is the U.S. dollar.

The statements of income and cash flow of investees, with a functional currency other than the Parent Company, are converted into reais at the average monthly exchange rate, assets and liabilities are translated at the final rate and other items of shareholders' equity are converted at the historical rate.

Exchange variations on investments in subsidiaries and affiliates, with a functional currency different from the Parent Company, are recorded in shareholders' equity, as a cumulative translation adjustment, and are transferred to the statement of income when investments are sold.

3. Material accounting policies

For a better understanding of the recognition and measurement basis applied in the preparation of the financial statements, the accounting practices are presented in the respective notes that deal with the topics of their applications.

4. Key estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial information requires the use of estimates and judgments for certain transactions. Next is presented: (i) key judgments; and (ii) the main sources of uncertainty with a significant risk of causing material adjustments to the company's accounting estimates over the next fiscal year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1. Recognition of exploration costs and oil and natural gas reserves estimates

After obtaining the legal rights to explore a specific area, the Company uses the successful efforts method to recognize costs incurred in connection with the exploration and evaluation of mineral resources, before demonstrating technical and commercial feasibility of extracting those resources. This method requires a direct relationship between costs incurred and mineral resources for these costs to be characterized as assets. The types of exploration costs and their respective recognition are presented in note 26.

The moment in which the technical and commercial feasibility of extracting a mineral resource is determined requires management judgments. An internal commission of technical executives of the Company periodically reviews the conditions of each well, by analysis of geological, geophysical and engineering data, as well as economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations.

The Company considers that the technical and commercial feasibility of a mineral resource can be demonstrated when the project has all the necessary information to characterize the reservoir as a proved reserve. Costs associated with non-commercial mineral resources are recognized as expenses in the period when identified.

According to the definitions prescribed by the SEC, proved oil and natural gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically feasible from a given date, from known reservoirs and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulation.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The Company also determines reserves according to the criteria of the National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels / Society of Petroleum Engineers (ANP/SPE). The main differences between these criteria and the SEC criterion are related to the use of different economic assumptions and the possibility of considering as reserves, in the ANP/SPE criteria, the volumes expected to be produced beyond the concession contract expiration date in fields in Brazil, according to the ANP technical reserves regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.2.** **Impairment testing** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.2.1.** **Main sources of estimation uncertainty** 

Impairment testing of non-financial assets involves uncertainties mainly related to: (a) the average Brent prices and to the Brazilian real/U.S. dollar average exchange rate, whose estimates are relevant to virtually all of the Company's operating segments; (b) discount rates; and (c) estimated proved and probable reserves (according to the criteria established by the ANP/SPE). A significant number of interdependent variables used to determine value in use are derived from these key assumptions, and their application in impairment testing involves a high degree of complexity. Value in use represents the present value of estimated future cash flows originating from an asset or a cash-generating units (CGU).

A sensitivity analysis for assets or CGUs most sensitive to future impairment losses or reversals in the next year is presented in note 25.

**Average Brent prices and average exchange rate**

The markets for crude oil and natural gas have a history of significant price volatility and, although prices can drop or increase precipitously, industry prices over the long term tend to be driven by market supply and demand fundamentals.

Brent prices and exchange rate projections are derived from the Business Plan and are consistent with market evidence, such as independent macro-economic forecasts, industry analysts and experts. Backtesting analysis and feedback processes in order to continually improve forecast techniques are also performed.

The Company's oil price forecast model is based on a nonlinear relationship between variables reflecting market supply and demand fundamentals. This model also takes into account other relevant factors, such as the effects of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) decisions on the oil market, industry costs, idle capacity, oil and gas production forecasted by specialized firms, and the relationship between the oil price and the Brazilian Real/U.S. dollar exchange rate.

The process of projecting Brazilian real/U.S. dollar exchange rate is based on econometric models that consider long-term assumptions involving observable inputs, such as commodity prices, country risk, interest rates in the U.S. and the value of the U.S. dollar relative to a basket of foreign currencies (U.S. dollar Index – USDX).

Changes in the economic environment may result in changing assumptions and, consequently, the recognition of impairment losses or reversals on certain assets or CGUs. For example, the Company's sales revenues and refining margins are directly impacted by Brent price variations, as well as Brazilian Real/U.S. dollar exchange rate variations, which also impacts our capital and operating expenditures.

Note 25 presents Brent prices and exchange rate estimates of the Company.

**Discount rates**

The discount rates used in impairment tests reflect specific risks associated with the estimated cash flows of the assets or CGUs. For example, changes in the economic and political environment may result in higher country risk projections, causing increases in the discount rates used in impairment tests, as well as investment decisions that result in the postponement or interruption of projects considering specific risks related to non-completion or delayed start of operations.

Note 25 presents the main discount rates applied in impairment tests.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**Estimated proved and probable reserves**

Reserves estimates, according to the criteria established by the ANP/SPE (as set out in note 4.1) are revised at least annually, based on updated geological and production data of reservoirs, as well as on changes in prices and costs used in these estimates. Revisions may also result from significant changes in the Company's strategy for development projects or in the production capacity.

Although the Company is reasonably certain that proved reserves will be produced, the timing and amount recovered can be affected by a sort of factors including completion of production development projects, reservoir performance, regulatory aspects and significant changes in long-term oil and gas price levels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.2.2.** **Identifying cash-generating units for impairment testing** 

A cash-generating unit (CGU) represents the smaller identifiable group of assets that generate cash inflows, which are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets. Identifying CGUs requires management assumptions and judgment, based on the Company's business and management model.

Changes in CGUs resulting from the review of investment, strategic or operational factors, may result in changes in the interdependencies of assets and, consequently, alter the aggregation or breakdown of assets that were part of certain CGUs, which may influence their ability to generate cash and cause additional losses or reversals in the recovery of such assets. If the approval for the sale of a CGU's component occurs between the reporting date and the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company reassesses whether the value in use of this component, estimated with the information existing at the reporting date, reasonably represents its fair value, net of disposal expenses. Such information must include evidence of the stage at which management was committed to the sale of the CGU's component.

The primary considerations in identifying the CGUs are set out as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Exploration and Production (E&P) CGUs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i) Crude oil and natural gas producing properties -
individual CGUs: comprise assets related to exploration and production development of a field or a cluster (group of two or more fields)
in Brazil and abroad. At December 31, 2025, there were 29 fields and 14 clusters representing different Exploration and Production CGUs
in Brazil.

ii) Equipment not related to crude oil and natural gas producing properties: comprise assets that ceased operation, such as platforms, drilling rigs and other assets which are not part of any CGU and are assessed for impairment separately.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) Refining, transportation and marketing (RT&M)
CGUs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i) *Set of refining and logistics assets*: comprises
refineries, terminals and pipelines, as well as logistics assets operated by Transpetro. The combined and centralized operation of such
assets aims at serving the market at the lowest overall costs and preserving the strategic value of the whole set of assets in the long
term. The operational planning is made in a centralized manner and these assets are not managed, measured or evaluated by their individual
results. Refineries do not have autonomy to choose the oil to be processed, the mix of oil products to produce, the markets in which these
products will be traded, which amounts will be exported, which intermediaries will be received and to decide the sale prices of oil products.
Operational decisions are analyzed through an integrated model of operational planning for market supply, considering all the options
for production, imports, exports, logistics and inventories, seeking to maximize the Company's global performance. The decision
on new investments is not based on the individual assessment of the asset where the project will be installed, but on the additional result
for the CGU as a whole. The model that supports the entire planning, used in technical and economic feasibility studies of new investments
in refining and logistics, seeks to allocate a certain type of oil, or a mix of oil products, and to define market supply (area of influence),
aiming at achieving the best integrated results. Pipelines and terminals are a complementary and interdependent portion of the refining
assets required to supply the market. In 2025, following the signing of the main contracts required for the completion of works and resumption
of investments in the Second Refining Unit of RNEST and in the refining and utilities assets of the Boaventura Energy Complex, these assets
were integrated into the CGU *Set of refining and logistics assets*;

ii) *Transportation*: comprises assets relating to Transpetro's fleet of vessels;

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

iii) *Hidrovia*: comprises the fleet of vessels under construction of the Hidrovia project (transportation of ethanol along the Tietê River);

iv) *Fertilizer plants*: sets of assets related to nitrogen fertilizer plants, each one representing individual CGUs, whether returning to operations or hibernated. As of December 31, 2025 the 3 CGUs are: Araucária Nitrogenados S.A. (ANSA), Fafens (fertilizer plants in the states of Bahia and Sergipe), and Nitrogen Fertilizer Unit III (UFN-III); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;v) Other RT&M CGUs: operations abroad defined as
the smallest group of assets that generates independent cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) Gas and Low Carbon Energies (G&LCE) CGUs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i) *Integrated Systems*: set of assets formed by
natural gas processing plants in Itaboraí, Cabiúnas and Caraguatatuba, grouped together due to the contractual characteristics
of the Integrated Processing System and the Integrated Transportation System;

ii) *Natural Gas Processing Plants*: each remaining natural gas processing plant represents a separate CGU;

iii) *Set of thermoelectric power generation plants* (UTEs): the operation and trade of energy of this CGU are carried out and coordinated in an integrated manner. The economic results of each of these plants in the integrated portfolio are highly dependent on each other, due to operational optimization aimed at maximizing the overall result;

iv) *Biodiesel*: set of assets comprising Montes Claros and Candeias plants, reflecting the production planning and operation process, that takes into consideration domestic market conditions, the production capacity of each plant, the results achieved in the commercialization of products, as well as the raw materials supply;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;v) *Quixadá*: comprises the assets of biofuel
plant located in the city of Quixadá, state of Ceará;

vi) Other G&LCE CGUs: operations abroad defined as the smallest group of assets that generates largely independent cash flows.

Further information on impairment testing is set out in note 25.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.3.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to depreciation, depletion and amortization** 

As presented in note 23, assets directly related to the oil and gas production are depleted using the units of production method, calculated by monthly production over the respective developed proved reserves, except for the signature bonuses, which are calculated over total proved reserves.

Proved developed reserves are those for which recovery can be expected: (i) through existing wells, equipment and operating methods, or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well; and (ii) through extraction equipment and operational infrastructure installed at the time of the reserves estimate, if the extraction is carried out by means that do not involve a well.

Estimates of proved reserves volumes used in the units of production method are prepared by Company's technicians according to the SEC definitions. Revisions to the Company's proved developed and undeveloped reserves impact prospectively the amounts of depreciation, depletion and amortization recognized in the statement of income and the carrying amounts of oil and gas properties assets. Information on uncertainties related to reserve volume estimates are presented in note 4.1.

Therefore, assuming all other variables remain constant, a decrease in estimated proved reserves would increase, prospectively, depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, while an increase in reserves would reduce depreciation, depletion and amortization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.4.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to pension plan and other post-employment benefits** 

The net actuarial liability represents the Company's actuarial obligations, net of fair value of plan assets (when applicable), at present value, as described in note 19.3.2.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The actuarial obligations and net expenses related to defined benefit pension and health care post-employment plans are computed based on several financial and demographic assumptions, of which the most significant are:

a) Discount rate: comprises the projected future inflation in addition to an equivalent discounted interest rate that matches the duration of the pension and health care obligations with the future yield curve of long-term Brazilian Government Bonds; and

b) Medical and hospital costs changes rate: comprise the projected growth rates based on per capita health care benefits paid over the last five years, which are used as a basis for projections, converged to the general price inflation index within 30 years.

These and other actuarial assumptions are revised at least annually and may differ materially from actual results due to changes in market and economic conditions.

The measurement uncertainties associated with the defined benefit obligation and a sensitivity analysis of discount rates and changes in medical costs are disclosed in notes 19.3.6 and 19.3.7, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.5.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to provisions for legal proceedings and contingencies** 

The Company is part in arbitrations and in legal and administrative proceedings involving civil, tax, labor and environmental issues arising from the normal course of its business and makes use of estimates to recognize the amounts and the probability of outflow of resources, based on reports and technical assessments from legal advisors and on management's assessment.

These estimates are performed individually, or aggregated if there are cases with similar characteristics, primarily considering factors such as assessment of the plaintiff's demands, consistency of the existing evidence, jurisprudence on similar cases and doctrine on the subject. Specifically for lawsuits by outsourced employees, the Company estimates the expected loss based on a statistical procedure, due to the number of actions with similar characteristics.

Arbitral, legal and administrative decisions against the Company, new jurisprudence and changes of existing evidence can result in changes on the probability of outflow of resources and on the estimated amounts, according to the assessment of the legal basis.

Note 20 provides further detailed information about contingencies and legal proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.6.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to decommissioning costs** 

The Company has legal obligations to remove equipment and restore onshore and offshore areas at the end of operations, in the E&P segment. Its most significant asset removal obligations relate to offshore areas. Estimates of costs for future environmental cleanup and remediation activities are based on current information about costs and expected plans for remediation. The timing of abandonment and dismantling of areas is based on the length of reserves depletion, in accordance with the ANP/SPE definitions. Therefore, revisions to reserves estimates that result in changes in the timing of reserves depletion may impact the provision for decommissioning cost. For additional information about revisions to the Company's reserves estimates, see note 4.1.

These obligations are recognized at present value, using a risk-free discount rate, adjusted to the Company's credit risk. Changes in the discount rate can cause significant variations in the recognized amount, due to the long-term nature until abandonment.

The calculation to determine the amounts to be provisioned are complex, since: i) the obligations are long-term; ii) the contracts and regulations contain subjective definitions of the removal and remediation practices and criteria involved when the events occur; and iii) asset removal technologies and costs are constantly changing, along with regulations, environmental, safety and public relations considerations. Additionally, abandonment costs are mostly denominated in U.S. dollars, which may result in significant changes in the estimates due to changes in the exchange rates overtime.

The Company constantly conducts studies to incorporate technologies and procedures to optimize the process of abandonment, considering industry best practices. However, the timing and amounts of future cash flows are subject to significant uncertainty.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

In the event of a total or partial sale of interest in E&P contracts, the Company remains jointly liable for decommissioning costs after its production has ceased, if the purchaser fails to comply with this obligation, as determined by the ANP.

Provisions for decommissioning costs associated with the Company's Refining, Transportation and Marketing (RT&M) and Gas and Low Carbon Energy (G&EBC) segments are not recognized as there is no legal or contractual obligation, nor any agreement with third parties for the decommissioning of assets in these segments. Changes in circumstances may require the recognition of provisions for decommissioning costs for such assets. However, such changes are not expected by the Company.

Note 21 provides further information about provision for decommissioning costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.7.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to leases** 

The Company uses incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of the lease payments, when the interest rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined.

The determination of incremental rates requires estimates based on corporate funding rates (obtained from the yields on bonds issued by Petrobras), which take into account the risk-free rate and the Company's credit risk premium, adjusted to reflect the specific conditions and characteristics of the lease, such as the risk of the country's economic environment, guarantees, currency and duration of the payment flow.

The present value of lease liabilities is determined based on the incremental rates estimated at the start date of each lease. Therefore, even in cases where lease agreements have similar characteristics, their cash flows may be discounted at significantly different incremental rates depending on the Company's corporate funding rates on the start date of each lease.

Note 31 presents information on lease arrangements by class of underlying assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.8.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to cash flow hedge accounting involving the Company's future exports** 

The Company determines its "highly probable future exports" based on its current Business Plan and on short-term estimates on a monthly basis. The highly probable future exports are determined by a percentage of projected export revenues.

The estimate of the amount of highly probable future exports considers future uncertainty regarding the Brent oil prices, oil production and demand for products in a model which optimizes the Company's operations and investments, in addition to considering the historical profile of exported volume in relation to total oil production.

As described in note 33.3.1, foreign exchange gains and losses relating to the effective portion of hedging instruments are recognized in other comprehensive income and reclassified to the statement of income within finance income (expense) in the periods when the hedged item affects the statement of income. However, if future exports for which foreign exchange gains and losses hedging relationship has been designated is no longer expected to occur, any related cumulative foreign exchange gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income from the date the hedging relationship was designated to the date the Company revoked the designation is immediately recycled from other comprehensive income to the statement of income.

For the long term, future exports forecasts are reviewed whenever the Company reviews its Business Plan assumptions, while for the short-term future exports are reviewed monthly. The approach for determining highly probable future exports is reviewed annually, at least.

See note 33.3.1 for more detailed information about cash flow hedge accounting and a sensitivity analysis of the cash flow hedge involving future exports.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.9.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to income taxes** 

Income taxes rules and regulations may be interpreted differently by tax authorities, and situations may arise in which these interpretations differ from the Company's understanding.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Uncertainties over income taxes treatments represent the risks that the tax authority does not accept a certain tax treatment applied by the Company, mainly related to different interpretations of deductions and additions to the income taxes calculation basis. The Company evaluates each uncertain tax treatment separately or in a group where there is interdependence in relation to the expected result.

The Company estimates the probability of acceptance of an uncertain tax treatment by the tax authority based on technical assessments by its legal advisors, considering precedent jurisprudence applicable to current tax legislation, which may be impacted mainly by changes in tax rules or court decisions which may affect the analysis of the fundamentals of uncertainty. The tax risks identified are evaluated, treated and, when applicable, follows a pre-determined tax risk management methodology.

If it is probable that the tax authorities will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the amounts recorded in the financial statements are consistent with the tax records and, therefore, no uncertainty is reflected in the measurement of current or deferred income taxes. If it is not probable that the tax authorities will accept an uncertain tax treatment, the uncertainty is reflected in the measurement of current or deferred income taxes in the financial statements.

The effect of uncertainty for each uncertain tax treatment is estimated by using the method that provides the best prediction of the resolution of the uncertainty. The most probable amount method provides as an estimate the single most probable amount in a set of possible outcomes, while the expected amount method represents the sum of the amounts weighted by the probability in relation to a range of possible outcomes.

Additional information on uncertainty over income taxes treatments is disclosed in Note 18.1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.10.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to expected credit losses** 

Credit losses correspond to the difference between all contractual cash flows owed to the Company and all cash flows that the entity expects to receive, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The expected credit loss of a financial asset corresponds to the average of expected credit losses weighted by the respective default risks.

Expected credit losses on financial assets are based on assumptions relating to risk of default, the determination of whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk, expectation of recovery, among others. The Company uses judgment for such assumptions in addition to information from credit rating agencies and inputs based on collection delays.

Notes 14.2 and 14.3 provide details on the expected credit losses recognized by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.11.** **Sources of estimation uncertainty related to the compensation for the surplus volume for the Transfer of Rights Agreement** 

As a result of the Second Bidding Round for the Surplus Volume of the Transfer of Rights Agreement under the Production Sharing regime, the Company signed amendments and new agreements in 2022 with partners in the Atapu and Sépia fields. These agreements provide, in addition to the compensation already received upon signature, possible additional amounts receivable that may be owed to the Company, related to Brent changes, according to the conditions described in note 29.2.

Additionally, over the last few years the Company has sold assets considered non-strategic and established partnerships in E&P assets aiming, among other objectives, at sharing risks and developing new technologies. Such transactions were carried out through partnerships (note 27) and divestments, with procedures aligned with current legislation and regulatory bodies. In some of these transactions, contingent receipts are also provided for, subject to contractual clauses, mainly related to Brent changes (note 29.2).

5. Climate Change

Climate change may result in both negative and positive effects for the Company. Potential negative effects of climate change for the Company are referred to as climate-related risks. Inversely, potential positive effects of climate change for the Company are referred to as climate-related opportunities.

Climate risks are categorized as: (i) climate-related transition risks (transition risks); and (ii) climate-related physical risks (physical risks).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The Company's Business Plan 2026-2030 incorporates actions and goals related to the transition towards a low-carbon economy. These initiatives include, among others, decarbonization projects for operations aimed at achieving the Company's carbon sustainability commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.** **Potential effects of climate risks on accounting estimates** 

Accounting estimates are monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.

The following information used in relevant accounting estimates of the Company is largely determined based on the assumptions and projections of the Petrobras Business Plan (PN):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· value in use for impairment of assets testing purposes
(note 4.2.1);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· timing and costs used in measuring the provision
for decommissioning costs (note 4.6);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· highly probable future exports used in cash flow
hedge accounting involving the Company's future exports (note 4.8); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· useful life of PP&E and intangible assets used
in measuring depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses (notes 23 and 24).

As specified in the following topic, the company considered the impacts related to climate risks in its Business Planning approved by the Board of Directors, updated each year, which includes actions to achieve its climate commitments and its ambition to neutralize its net operational emissions of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) (scopes 1<sup>1</sup> and 2<sup>2</sup>) by 2050.

The ambition and commitments above do not constitute guarantees of future performance by the company and are subject to assumptions that may not materialize and to risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.

**a)** **Transition risk to low carbon economy**

Transition risks arise from efforts to the transition to a low-carbon economy. In this category, the Company has identified the following risks that can reasonably be expected to affect its cash flows, access to financing or cost of capital:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;<br> **Risk** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Description** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Time length <sup>(2)</sup>** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Market | &nbsp;&nbsp; Increased demand for energy and products with lower carbon emissions, in addition to a preference for fossil products with lower GHG intensity in production processes, lead to a reduction in oil demand and, consequently, to a decline in prices of fossil fuel products.<br> In Brazil: the demand for fossil products may be affected, for example, by regulatory stimulation such as the Future Fuel Law <sup>(1)</sup> and by the developments of the National Policy on Climate Change and the National Policy on Energy Transition, aiming at meeting Brazil's emission reduction targets. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Medium and long term |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Technological and implementation | &nbsp;&nbsp;Loss of competitiveness due to the non-implementation or implementation of inefficient or non-effective technologies to reduce emissions from the Company's operations and products. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Medium and long term |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Regulatory and legal | &nbsp;&nbsp; Establishment of more restrictive regulatory requirements for controlling GHG emissions and other climate-related requirements, which may cause operational restrictions and financial penalties for the Company's activities.<br> In Brazil, it may arise from the Law 15,042/2024, which creates the Brazilian Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading System (SBCE), which may result in additional costs of carbon pricing for the Company's operations. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Medium and long term |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Litigation and reputational | &nbsp;&nbsp;Litigation and/or reputational damage due to non-compliance with climate commitments, perception of lack of transparency and/or acquisition of low-quality and low-integrity carbon credits. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Medium and long term |

Additionally, it modifies the maximum and minimum limits of the ethanol blend in gasoline and the biodiesel blend in diesel fuel and provides for the regulation and oversight of carbon dioxide capture and geological storage activities, as well as the regulation of synthetic fuel production and commercialization. It also promotes the integration of initiatives and measures adopted under the National Biofuels Policy (RenovaBio), the Green and Innovation Mobility Program (Programa Mover), the Brazilian Vehicle Labeling Program (PBEV), and the Vehicle Emissions Control Program (Proconve). |

<sup>2</sup> GHG emissions from the generation of purchased electricity and steam consumed by the company, which occur at the facilities where the electricity and steam are generated.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The risks above were considered in the development of the Company's Business Plan 2026-2030. Such consideration was based on the following external environmental assumptions that reflect the dynamics of the energy sector:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• moderate
economic growth compared to the recent past;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• shifts
in consumption habits and behaviors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• public
policies focusing on mobility, air quality and adaptation of urban infrastructure to climate change;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• international
coordination in efforts to reduce GHG emissions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• regulations
in favor of energy transition and decarbonization, which will drive the reduction of fossil fuel consumption; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diffusion
of end-use technologies that reduce the need for fossil fuel consumption.

As a result of this, demand and prices, both domestic and international, of the main products considered in the Business Plan 2026-2030 are negatively affected.

In 2025, the Company adopted three distinct scenarios that are used for different purposes in its planning activities. These scenarios are called Adaptation, Negotiation and Commitment. In all of them, there is a slowdown and subsequent contraction of fossil fuel sources, as well as an increase in demand for renewables and low-carbon solutions, in a different manner between developed and developing markets. The Negotiation scenario, which is used as a reference scenario for quantifying the Company's Business Plan, considers that fossil fuels, which currently represent approximately 80% of the world's primary energy sources, will represent around 48% by 2050. The share of oil will decrease from the current 30% to around 20% of the world's primary energy sources. Despite this reduction, oil demand is expected to remain significant over this time horizon.

The Brent price considered in the reference scenario of the Business Plan for 2050 increased from US$65 per barrel in the Business Plan 2025-2029 to US$70 per barrel in the Business Plan 2026-2030. For additional information about the behavior of the Brent price considered in the Company's Business Plans, see note 25. The following table compares the oil price used in the reference scenario for the years 2035 and 2050 with those projected in the Announced Pledges Scenario (APS) and Net Zero Emission (NZE) scenarios by the International Energy Agency (IEA), even though they are not directly used by the Company:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Brent price US$/Barrel** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**2035** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**2050** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Business Plan | &nbsp;&nbsp;70 | &nbsp;&nbsp;70 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;APS 2024 | &nbsp;&nbsp;67 | &nbsp;&nbsp;58 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;NZE 2025 | &nbsp;&nbsp;33 | &nbsp;&nbsp;25 |

---

According to the IEA, the APS scenario<sup>3</sup> released in 2024 considers that all climate commitments made by governments around the world, including Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), as well as long-term net-zero targets, will be met in full and on time, with an increase of approximately 1.7<sup>o</sup>C in temperature by 2100 (with a 50% probability of occurrence). Regarding the NZE scenario<sup>4</sup> released in 2025, according to the IEA, it presents a pathway for the global energy sector to achieve net-zero CO<sub>2</sub> emissions by 2050, consistent with limiting the temperature increase to 1.5 °C (with at least a 50% probability of occurrence).

------

<sup>3</sup> The APS scenario, which was included in previous editions, was not addressed in the World Energy Outlook 2025 (WEO 2025). This scenario, which assumes the full and timely implementation of major national energy and climate targets—such as countries' Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) - was not analyzed by the IEA because several countries had not released updated NDCs in 2025. Therefore, for comparison purposes, Petrobras continue to use the APS projections published in the WEO 2024 report.

<sup>4</sup> The NZE scenario presented in the WEO 2025 outlines a pathway to achieve net zero energy-related CO₂ emissions by 2050. To this end, the agency highlights, for the first time, the trajectory of non-energy-related emissions, emphasizing the need to reduce deforestation as well as to expand the deployment of emissions-removal technologies.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The Company's accounting estimates did not incorporate the effect of carbon pricing. Currently, due to uncertainties regarding the implementation and dynamics of the carbon market in Brazil, the Company considers it necessary to await the regulation of Law No. 15,042 in 2024, which establishes the SBCE. This regulation will provide the necessary and sufficient details to reliably and reasonably assess the impact on the cash flows of Petrobras's assets and its CGUs. In October 2025, the Extraordinary Secretariat for the Carbon Market was established to organize the SBCE, which will issue the necessary additional regulation to implement Law No. 15,042 of 2024.

**a.1) Potential effects on the value in use in impairment tests**

When measuring the value in use of its assets, the Company bases its cash flow projections on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's best estimate of the range of economic conditions.

The Company's actions and goals for its transition to a low-carbon economy have not indicated that any assets may have been impaired.

A faster transition to a low-carbon economy than foreseen in the Business Plan could result in Brent prices and demand for the Company's products that are lower than the ones considered to estimate the value in use of the Company's assets for impairment testing purposes.

The reduction in the value in use of the Company's assets may result in the recognition of losses due to the non-recoverability of the carrying amounts of these assets.

Given that the oil price is a variable that decisively influences the recoverable amount of assets, the Company carried out a sensitivity analysis of the effect of using the Brent prices considered in the APS and NZE scenarios, for the impairment test of the Company's E&P assets in Brazil.

Using the prices in the APS and NZE scenarios to perform a sensitivity analysis on projected gross revenues deducted of production taxes, net of income taxes, and keeping unchanged all other components, variables, assumptions and data for calculating the recoverable amount, the Parent Company's E&P segment, regarding the impairment loss recognized by the Company, as disclosed in note 25, would have additional impairment reversal of R$1,665 in the APS scenario and additional impairment losses R$98,351 in the NZE scenario, concentrated in the Campos basin fields.

The Company does not consider this sensitivity analysis based on APS and NZE Brent price scenarios to be the best estimates to determine expected effects on the recoverable amount of assets, sales revenues or net income.

Considering that the Company did not incorporate in its accounting estimates the carbon price effects, the Company carried out a sensitivity analysis of the effect of GHG emissions pricing costs on the impairment test of assets in the E&P segment in Brazil, considering a monetary charge per ton of CO<sub>2</sub> equivalent emission starting from 2030, and the existence of free emission allowances.

In this context, using a base price of US$10/CO<sub>2</sub> in 2030, US$35.3/CO<sub>2</sub> in 2035, US$60.6/CO<sub>2</sub> in 2040, US$85.9/CO<sub>2</sub> in 2045, and US$111.2/CO<sub>2</sub> in 2050, considering emission allowances to be distributed free of charge, with gradual reduction, to simulate additional cash outflows (net of income taxes), and keeping all other components, variables, assumptions and data for the calculation of recoverable amount unchanged, the Parent Company's E&P segment would have an additional R$382 impairment loss.

The Company does not consider this sensitivity analysis of the effect of greenhouse gas emissions pricing costs on the impairment test of assets to be the best estimate to determine expected effects on the recoverable amount, neither the estimated effects on expenses nor net income.

**a.2) Potential effects on decommissioning costs**

Due to its operations, the Company has legal obligations to remove equipment and restore onshore and offshore areas. On December 31, 2025, the provision for decommissioning costs recognized by the Parent Company totaled R$156,268, as set out in Note 21. On an undiscounted basis the nominal amount would be R$313,800.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The estimated timing used by the Company to account for decommissioning costs are consistent with the useful lives of the related assets. The average decommissioning period of oil and gas assets weighted by the carrying amounts of such assets is 14 years.

The Company's actions and goals for its transition to a low-carbon economy have not materially affected the amount and period of its provision for decommissioning costs.

During 2025, there were no issuances of government regulations related to climate matters that changed or had potential to change the amount and period for decommissioning the Company's assets.

A transition to a low-carbon economy that is faster than anticipated by the Company may accelerate the timing to remove equipment and restore onshore or offshore areas. Such acceleration would increase the present value of the decommissioning obligations recognized by the Company.

To illustrate the effect of a possible acceleration of the transition to a low-carbon economy, the Company estimates that the provision for decommissioning costs would increase by R$7,253, R$22,378 and R$35,942 if the timing currently used were brought forward by one, three and five years, respectively. This sensitivity analysis assumed that all other components, variables, assumptions and data for calculating the provision remained unchanged. The year ranges used are not intended to be predictions of likely future events or outcomes.

**a.3) Potential effects on "highly probable future exports" used in cash flow hedge accounting involving the Company's future exports**

A transition to a low-carbon economy that is faster than it was anticipated by the Company may negatively effect the Company's future exports. Such effect may result in certain exports, whose foreign exchange gains or losses were designated for hedge accounting, no longer be considered highly probable, but remain forecasted, or, depending on the magnitude of the transition and its speed, cease to be considered forecasted. The consequences of such effects are described in the accounting policy of note 33.3.1 (a) involving the Company's future exports.

The calculation of "highly probable future exports" is based on the projected exports in the Business Plan 2026-2030, as set out in note 4.8. The Company considers only a portion of its projected exports as "highly probable future exports". When determining future exports as highly probable, and therefore eligible as a hedged item for application of cash flow hedge accounting, the Company considers the effects related to the transition to a low-carbon economy, including Brent prices and demands for products. Carbon prices were not incorporated in such estimates.

The Company's actions and goals for its transition to a low-carbon economy have not materially affected its highly probable future exports.

Using the Brent prices in the APS and NZE scenarios we carried out a sensitivity analysis to simulate the need to reclassify the foreign exchange gains or losses recorded in equity to the statement of income. Such analysis simulated a new future cash flow from exports, changing only the oil price, keeping all other components, variables, assumptions and data unchanged. In such an analysis, it would be necessary to reclassify the foreign exchange losses, in the amount of R$90, recorded in equity to the statement of income in the NZE scenario.

The simulations used to perform such sensitivity analysis, based on Brent prices of the scenarios APS and NZE, are not considered by the Company as the best estimates to determine expected effects of the reclassification of foreign exchange variation recorded in equity to the statement of income.

**a.4) Potential effects on the useful lives of PP&E**

A transition to a low-carbon economy that is faster than the Company anticipates may reduce the useful life of its assets, which could lead to an increase in annual depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses.

Assets directly related to the production of oil and gas in a contracted area are depleted using the units of production method and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying amount of these assets in operation in Brazil is R$596,594. Based on this carrying amount, assuming the current depreciation and amortization rates are maintained, the balance of these assets would not be material by 2050. This simulation is not considered by the Company to represent an expectation of carrying amounts in 2050.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

As mentioned in item "Transition risk to low carbon economy", the reference scenario of the Strategic Plan indicates that there will be persistent global demand for oil in the coming decades. Additionally, calculations of expected production and oil and gas reserves in this scenario consider the effects of the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The Company's refining plants consist of 11 refineries and 2 fertilizer plants in Brazil. Based on the current depreciation rates of the assets in operation applied to the respective carrying amounts at December 31, 2025, which amounts to R$53,383, and assuming no additional investment, these refineries would have no material depreciation amounts after 2050. This simulation is not considered by the Company to represent an expectation of carrying amounts in 2050.

The Company estimates persistent demand for oil products in the coming decades, although decreasing, which should be progressively supplied by models with lower carbon intensity. Thus, the depreciation rates used by the Company for the refining plants are in line with the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The Gas and Energy assets in Brazil, including thermoelectric power plants, are depreciated using the linear method. Based on the current depreciation rates of the assets in operation applied to their respective carrying amounts as of December 31, 2025, totaling R$20,979, and assuming no additional investment, these assets would have no material depreciation amounts after 2050. This simulation is not considered by the Company to represent an expectation of carrying amounts in 2050.

In this context, based on available information, the Company does not foresee significant changes in the useful life of its refineries, assets directly related to oil and gas production and those related to the Gas and Energy arising from the transition to a low-carbon economy. Such assets represent 93% of the Company's total assets in operation.

**b) Physical Risks**

Physical risks result from changes in climate that can be event-driven (acute physical risk) or from long-term changes in weather patterns (acute physical risk). In this category, the company does not foresee that changes caused by climate change will have material effects on accounting estimates considering the risks currently identified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.2.** **Investments in decarbonization in Long-Term Assets** 

The Company systematically identifies opportunities to decarbonize its operations and, in line with its strategy focused on oil and gas with economic and environmental resilience, has been investing in initiatives aimed at reducing or avoiding greenhouse gas emissions.

The following information presents the balance of expenses incorporated into the book values of long-term assets related to investments made in decarbonization initiatives in the company's operational activities, as well as a comparison between the respective realized and estimated values for the year 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Operating segment** | **12.31.2025** | **12.31.2024** |
| E&P | 8238 | 5470 |
| RT&M | 494 | 126 |
| G&LCE | 230 | 104 |
| **Total** | **8962** | **5700** |

---

The Company estimated expenditures on decarbonization asset projects for the fiscal year 2025 in the amounts of R$2,788 for E&P, R$304 for RT&M and R$146 for G&LCE, with actual expenditures in 2025 totaling R$2,768, R$368 and R$126, respectively.

The main investments made refer to decarbonization technologies in new production systems to be used in the pre-salt layer, which are being incorporated into seven FPSOs (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading units) associated with production development projects in oil and gas fields where Petrobras acts in partnerships, as presented below:

| &nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Expected. | &nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Expected. | &nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Expected. | &nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Expected. |

---

As these technologies are inseparable from the FPSOs, the amounts related to decarbonization technologies are determined by multiplying the total expenditures incurred under the contract by an index representing the construction cost of the FPSO with and without the technology.

These fields integrate CGUs with no impairment loss recognized in the consolidates financial statements of 2025.

The incorporation of these decarbonization technologies ensures that the new units present lower carbon intensities, which is crucial for achieving the GHG emissions reduction targets set out in the Business Plan 2026-2030.

As described in the Business Plan 2026-2030, the Company has 5 commitments to reduce GHG emissions under operational control (scopes 1 and 2) by 2030. One of the commitments involves reducing 30% absolute operational emissions up to 2030, compared to 2015.

The commitments to reduce GHG emissions do not constitute guarantees of future performance by the Company and are subject to assumptions that may not materialize, as well as to risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Furthermore, current and planned investments also do not constitute guarantees of achieving these commitments.

Emission offsets through carbon credits may be used as a complementary tool in the Company's decarbonization initiatives. Transactions involving assets linked to GHG reduction, such as the acquisition an retirement of carbon credits, are not material for these consolidated financial statements. The use of carbon credits for this purpose does not constitute a guarantee of the Company's performance.

6. New standards and interpretations

In relation to the amendments effective as of January 1, 2027, the Company is assessing the effects that they will have on its consolidated and individual financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2. Accounting Pronouncement Committee - *Comitê de Pronunciamentos Contábeis* (CPC)

The CPC issues pronouncements, reviews of pronouncements and interpretations considered to be analogous to IFRS, as issued by the IASB. Below are the regulations issued that have not yet come into force and did not have their early adoption by the Company until December 31, 2025:

The expected effects of the initial application of the regulations above are the same as that presented for the respective standards issued by the IASB presented in note item 6.1.

7. Capital Management

The Company's objective in its capital management is to maintain its capital structure at an adequate level in order to continue as a going concern, maximizing value to shareholders and investors. Its main source of funding is cash provided by operating activities.

The financial strategy of the Business Plan 2026-2030 consists of consolidating capital discipline measures focused on cost optimization, increased productivity and operational efficiency, for the benefit of the Company's long-term sustainability. The main assumptions for the plan's viability are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• minimum balance of US$6 billion of cash and cash
equivalents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• payment of dividends according to the current Shareholders
Remuneration Policy; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ceiling target of US$75 billion for the gross
debt (composed of current and non-current finance debt and lease liability), converging to US$65 billion in the long term.

In 2025, Petrobras achieved positive recurring adjusted EBITDA and consistency in cash generation through Operating Cash Flow (OCF), a performance that allowed for returns to society through the payment of taxes and dividends.

Gross debt increased by US$9,482 million in 2025, remaining within the reference range established in the company's planning. Net debt increased by US$8,353 million. In reais, gross and net debt grew by 2.8% and 3.1%, respectively, as shown in the following table:

| **Net debt** | **60593** | **52240** | **333403** | **323489** |

---

The adjusted EBITDA adopted by Petrobras does not consider the results of certain operations, with the objective of providing a view on the potential for cash generation. Net debt represents total financing and leases, less cash and cash equivalents and financial investments. These measures are not defined according to IFRS Accounting Standards and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the metrics of income, debt and operating cash flow generation in IFRS Accounting Standards, nor should they be used as a basis for comparison with the indicators of other companies.

Financial investments classified as cash equivalents have maturities of up to three months from the date of their acquisition. In Brazil, it primarily consists of investments in funds holding Brazilian Federal Government Bonds, repurchase agreements, as well as floating rate Bank Deposit Certificates with daily liquidity. Short-term financial investments abroad mainly comprise time deposits, as well as investments with daily liquidity.

Cash and cash equivalents were mainly provided by operating activities (R$200,333), proceeds from finance debt (R$29,628), divestments in financial investments (R$16,188), proceeds from disposal of assets - divestment (R$3,550) and financial compensation from co-participation agreements (R$2,140).

The main use of these funds in 2025 were for acquisition of PP&E and intangible assets in the amount of R$108,714, repayment of principal and interests related to finance debt and repayment of lease liability, amounting to R$81,377, as well as for payment of dividends of R$45,438.

**<u>Accounting policy for cash and cash equivalents</u>**

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, term deposits with banks and short-term highly-liquid financial investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value and have a maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

Financial investments (which are not defined as cash equivalent) have maturities of more than three months. Financial investments classified as fair value through profit or loss refer mainly to investments in Brazilian Federal Government Bonds (level 1 of the fair value hierarchy). Financial investments classified as amortized cost mainly refer to investments in Brazil in floating rate Bank Deposit Certificates with daily liquidity, with initial maturities between one and two years, and to investments abroad in time deposits and government bonds.

**<u>Accounting policy for financial investments</u>**

The amounts invested in operations with terms of more than three months, as from the date of the agreement, are initially measured at fair value and subsequently according to their respective classifications, which are based on the way in which these funds are managed and their features of contractual cash flows:

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Fair value through profit or loss – financial
assets whose purpose is to receive funds from its sale. They are presented in current assets due to the expectation of realization within
12 months of the reporting date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Amortized cost – financial assets that give
rise, on specified dates, to cash flows represented exclusively by payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount,
the purpose of which is to receive its contractual cash flows. They are presented in current and in non-current assets according to their
expectation of realization. Interest income from these investments is calculated using the effective interest rate method.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. Sales revenues

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1. Revenues from contracts with customers

Revenues from contracts with customers derive from different products sold by the Company's operating segments, taking into consideration specific characteristics of the markets where they operate. For additional information about the operating segments of the Company, its activities and its respective products sold, see note 13.

The determination of transaction prices derives from methodologies and policies based on the parameters of these markets, reflecting operating risks, level of market share, changes in exchange rates and international commodity prices, including Brent oil prices, oil products such as diesel and gasoline, and the Henry Hub Index.

Sales revenues of R$497,549, R$6,720 higher than in 2024 (R$490,829), reflecting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Increased export revenues, due to higher volumes
of crude oil exports, resulting from increased production, and of oil products, especially fuel oil. Partially offset by lower prices,
mainly due to the devaluation of international prices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Decreased domestic market revenues, mainly due to:
(i) lower average prices of oil products, especially diesel, jet fuel, and gasoline, largely following the devaluation of international
prices; and (ii) lower natural gas revenue, due to lower demand from the non-thermal power sector, due to the increased participation
of other agents, and lower selling prices, influenced by variations in Brent and the exchange rate. These effects were partially offset:
(iii) by the higher volume of sales of oil products, especially diesel, due to increased economic activity and growth in grain harvests;
and (iv) by increased oil revenue, due to higher volumes sold in Brazil.

In 2025, sales to two clients of the refining, transportation and marketing (RT&M) segment represented individually 14% and 10% of the Company's sales revenues; in 2024, sales to two clients of the RT&M segment represented individually 15% and 10% of the Company's sales revenues. For more information about RT&M segment, see note 13 – Information by operating segment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2. Remaining performance obligations

Certain sales contracts signed through December 31, 2025, with original expected duration of equal to or more than 1 year, define the volume and timing of goods or services to be delivered during the term of the contract, and the payment terms for these future sales.

The estimated remaining values of these contracts in 2025 presented below are based on the contractually agreed future sales volumes, as well as prices prevailing at December 31, 2025 or practiced in recent sales reflecting more directly observable information:

---

Revenues are recognized once goods are transferred and services are provided to the customers and their measurement and timing of recognition will be subject to future demands, changes in commodities prices, exchange rates and other market factors.

The table above does not include information on contracts with original expected duration of less than one year, such as spot-market contracts, variable considerations which are constrained, and information on contracts only establishing general terms and conditions (Master Agreements), for which volumes and prices will only be defined in subsequent contracts.

In addition, electricity sales are mainly driven by demands to generate electricity from thermoelectric power plants, as and when requested by the Brazilian National Electric System Operator (ONS). These requests are substantially affected by Brazilian hydrological conditions. Thus, the table above presents mainly fixed amounts for the electricity to be available to customers in these operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.3. Contract liabilities

The balance of contract liabilities carried on the statement of financial position in 2025 amounted to R$416 (R$397 in 2024). This amount is classified in current liabilities and primarily comprises advances from customers in take or pay contracts to be recognized as revenue based on future sales of natural gas or following the non-exercise of the right by the customer.

**<u>Accounting policy for revenues</u>**

The Company evaluates contracts with customers for the sale of oil and oil products, natural gas, electricity, services and other products, which will be subject to revenue recognition, and identifies the distinct goods and services promised in each of them.

Sales revenues are recognized when control is transferred to the client, which usually occurs upon delivery of the product or when the service is provided. At this moment, the Company satisfies the performance obligation.

Performance obligations are considered to be promises to transfer to the client: (i) good or service (or group of goods or services) that is distinct; and (ii) a series of distinct goods or services that have the same characteristics or are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the client.

Revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transfers of promised goods or services to the customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Transaction prices are based on contractually stated prices, which reflect the Company's pricing methodologies and policies based on market parameters.

Invoicing occurs in periods very close to deliveries and rendering of services, therefore, significant changes in transaction prices are not expected to be recognized in revenues for periods subsequent to satisfaction of the performance obligation, except for some exports in which final price formation occurs after the transfer of control of the products and are subject to the variation in the value of the commodity.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Sales are carried out in short terms of receipt, thus there are no significant financing components.

Cost of sales of R$260,551, R$16,184 higher than in 2024 (R$244,367), highlighting the following factors:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Higher volumes of exported oil and oil products;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Higher volumes of oil products sold in the domestic market, especially diesel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Greater share of imported oil products in the sales mix; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Salary adjustments and the process of career advancement for employees.

These effects were partially offset by lower costs for the health plan benefit in 2025, reflecting the recognition of the actuarial review regarding the change in the benefit's co-participation in 2024.

General and administrative expenses of R$10,802, R$871 higher than 2024 (R$9,931), mainly reflecting:

· Increased expenses on third-party services, particularly data processing services, related to digital innovation and technological development
initiatives; and

· Salary adjustments and the process of career advancement for employees.

These effects were partially offset by lower health plan benefit costs in 2025, reflecting the recognition of the actuarial review regarding the change in benefit co-participation in 2024.

Other income and expenses, net negative in R$27,212, R$17,160 lower when compared to 2024 (R$44,372), with emphasis on:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Positive effect on the 2025 result related to the decommissioning of areas: this is largely due to the
gain on the fields undergoing the return process, as a result of the appreciation of the real against the dollar, impacting positively
cost estimates in dollars, the revision of tariffs, and the increase in the discount rate, resulting in a lower present value of the liability.
These factors contributed to revenue in 2025, when compared to the expense recorded in the 2024 annual review (for more information on
the provision for decommissioning of areas, see explanatory note 21); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Reduction in expenses with the health plan benefit, reflecting the actuarial review regarding the change
in co-participation of the benefit in 2024.

Net finance income (expense), positive, of R$4,971, R$87,442 higher compared to the negative result in 2024 (R$82,471), due to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Improved result with foreign exchange gains (losses) and indexation charges, mainly caused by net gains
from exchange rate variation, reflecting, primarily, the 11.1% appreciation of the real against the dollar in 2025 on the passive exposure
in dollars, when compared to the 27.9% depreciation in 2024; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Lower net finance expenses, particularly those related to the effects of joining the tax settlement program
in 2024, which ended legal disputes regarding tax litigation. These effects were partially offset by higher lease expenses, mainly due
to increased liabilities from chartering platforms and other operational assets.

<u>**Accounting policy for operating segments**</u>

The information related to the Company's operating segments is prepared based on available financial information directly attributable to each segment, or items that can be allocated to each segment on a reasonable basis. This information is presented by business activity, as used by the Company's Board of Executive Officers (Chief Operating Decision Maker – CODM) in the decision-making process of resource allocation and performance evaluation.

The measurement of segment results includes transactions carried out with third parties, including associates and joint ventures, as well as transactions between operating segments. Transfers between operating segments are recognized at internal transfer prices derived from methodologies that considers market parameters and are eliminated only to provide reconciliations to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company's business segments disclosed separately are:

**Exploration and Production (E&P):** this segment covers the activities of exploration, development and production of crude oil, NGL (natural gas liquid) and natural gas in Brazil and abroad, for the primary purpose of supplying its domestic refineries. The E&P segment also operates through partnerships with other companies and includes holding interest in foreign entities operating in this segment.

As an energy Company with a focus on oil and gas, intersegment sales revenue refers mainly to oil transfers to the Refining, Transportation and Marketing segment, aiming to supply the Company's refineries and meet the domestic demand for oil products, in addition to LPG and NGL transfers. These transactions are measured by internal transfer prices based on international oil prices and their respective exchange rate impacts, taking into account the specific characteristics of the transferred oil stream.

In addition, the E&P segment revenues include transfers of natural gas to the natural gas processing plants within Gas and Low Carbon Energies segment. These transactions are measured at internal transfer prices based on the international prices of this commodity.

Revenue from sales to third parties mainly reflects services rendered relating to E&P activities, as well as the oil and natural gas operations carried out by subsidiaries abroad.

**Refining, Transportation and Marketing (RT&M):** this segment covers the refining, logistics, transport, acquisition and exports of crude oil, as well as trading of oil products, in Brazil and abroad. This segment also includes the petrochemical operations (which comprehends holding interests in petrochemical companies in Brazil) and fertilizer production and trading.

This segment carries out the acquisition of crude oil from the E&P segment and from the domestic market, the import oil for feedstock refinery slate and the acquisition of oil products in domestic and international markets taking advantage of the existing price differentials between the cost of processing domestic oil and that of importing oil products. This segment also performs the acquisition of natural gas from the G&LCE segment.

Intersegment revenues primarily reflect the sale of oil products to the distribution business at market prices and the operations for the G&LCE and E&P segments at internal transfer prices.

Revenues from sales to third parties primarily reflect the trading of oil products in Brazil and the export and trade of oil and oil products by foreign subsidiaries.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**Gas and Low Carbon Energies (G&LCE):** this segment covers the activities of trading natural gas, electricity and liquefied natural gas (LNG), the generation of electricity by means of thermoelectric power plants, as well as natural gas processing. It also includes renewable energy businesses, low carbon services (carbon capture, utilization and storage) and the production and sale of biodiesel and its co-products.

Intersegment revenues primarily reflect the transfers of natural gas processed to the RT&M segment and natural gas processing to the E&P segment. These transactions are both measured at internal transfer prices.

This segment purchases national natural gas from the E&P segment, from partners and third parties, imports natural gas from Bolivia and LNG to meet national demand.

Revenues from sales to third parties primarily reflect sales of natural gas processed to distributors and to free consumers, generation and trading of electricity, as well as gas processing to third parties.

**Corporate and other businesses:** comprise items that cannot be attributed to business segments, including those with corporate characteristics, in addition to distribution business. Corporate items mainly include those related to corporate financial management, trade and other receivables, allowance for credit losses, gains (losses) with derivatives (except those with commodity derivatives included in their respective segments), corporate overhead and other expenses, including actuarial expenses related to pension and health care plans for beneficiaries. Other businesses include the distribution of oil products abroad (South America).

Trade and other receivables are generally classified as measured at amortized cost, except for receivables with final prices linked to changes in commodity price after their transfer of control, which are classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss, amounting to R$2,213 as of December 31, 2025 (R$2,579 as of December 31, 2024).

The balance of receivables from divestment and Transfer of Rights Agreement is mainly related to the earnout of the Sépia and Atapu fields, totaling R$2,191 (R$3,147 as of December 31, 2024), from the sale of the Roncador field, totaling R$1,464 (R$2,185 as of December 31, 2024) and the Potiguar cluster, totaling R$862 (R$1,345 as of December 31, 2024).

The increase in the net accounts receivable balance in 2025 of R$287 is mainly due to the recognition of receivables related to the equalization of expenses resulting from the redetermination of the shared Tupi deposit (note 27.1), partially offset by the reduction in receivables from divestments.

In 2025, the average period for accounts receivable from contracts with third-party clients in the domestic market is approximately 2 days for the sale of oil products (the same period in 2024). The collection period for the sale of crude oil in the domestic market, in 2025, varies between 20 and 85 days (between 20 and 27 days in 2024). Exports of fuel oil have a collection period between 3 and 19 days, while exports of crude oil have a period between 10 and 14 days (between 11 and 15 days for fuel oil and between 9 and 13 days for crude oil, in 2024).

**<u>Accounting policy for trade and other receivables</u>**

Trade and other receivables are generally classified at amortized cost, except for certain receivables classified at fair value through profit or loss, whose cash flows are distinct from the receipt of principal and interest, including receivables with final prices linked to changes in commodity price after their transfer of control.

When the Company is the lessor in a finance lease, a receivable is recognized at the amount of the net investment in the lease, consisting of the lease payments receivable and any unguaranteed residual value accruing to the Company, discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease.

The Company measures expected credit losses (ECL) for short-term trade receivables using a provision matrix which is based on historical observed default rates adjusted by current and forward-looking information when applicable and available without undue cost or effort.

ECL is the weighted average of historical credit losses with the respective default risks, which may occur according to the weightings. The credit loss on a financial asset is measured by the difference between all contractual cash flows due to the Company and all cash flows the Company expects to receive, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

The Company measures the allowance for ECL of other trade receivables based on their 12-month expected credit losses unless their credit risk increases significantly since their initial recognition, in which case the allowance is based on their lifetime ECL.

When determining whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of default on initial recognition and at the reporting date.

Regardless of the assessment of credit risk, a 30-day period of default triggers the definition of significant increase in credit risk on a financial asset, unless otherwise demonstrated by reasonable and supportable information, such as the existence of contractual or financial guarantees, which have the potential to influence credit risk, thus affecting the application of the risk matrix percentages.

The Company assumes that the credit risk on the trade receivable has not increased significantly since initial recognition if the receivable is considered to have low credit risk at the reporting date. Low credit risk is determined based on external credit ratings or internal methodologies.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

In the absence of controversy or other issues that may result in the suspension of collection, the Company assumes that a default occurs whenever the counterparty does not comply with the legal obligation to pay its debts when due or, depending on the instrument, when it is at least 120 days past due.

Crude oil can be traded or used for production of oil products.

Oil products mainly include diesel, gasoline, jet fuel and naphtha, and are generally traded.

Intermediate products are those product streams that have been through at least one of the refining processes, but still need further treatment, processing or converting to be available for sale.

Natural gas is initially processed, and its derivatives are subsequently traded or transferred to thermoelectric power plants and refineries, while LNG can be traded or converted to natural gas.

Biofuels mainly include ethanol and biodiesel inventories.

Materials, supplies and others mainly comprise production supplies and operating materials used in the operations of the Company, stated at the average purchase cost, not exceeding replacement cost.

The increase in inventory balances in 2025, of R$3,623, refers mainly to acquisitions of parts and materials for routine maintenance and consumption in operations and warehouses, especially in refineries and production assets. Additionally, the oil inventory reflects higher production, partially offset by lower costs with production taxes, reduced international prices, a lower share of imported oil (of higher unit cost), and higher export volumes.

Inventories are presented deducted from losses to adjust their net realizable value, with these adjustments resulting mainly from fluctuations in international oil and oil product prices, and when constituted, they are recognized in the income statement for the year as costs of products and services sold. On December 31, 2025, there was a loss within cost of sales, adjusting inventories to net realizable value of R$17 (reversal of R$214 on December 31, 2024).

At December 31, 2025, the Company had pledged crude oil and oil products volumes as collateral for the Term of Financial Commitment (TFC) related to Pension Plans PPSP-R, PPSP-R Pre-70 and PPSP-NR Pre-70 signed by Petrobras and *Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social* – Petros Foundation in 2008, in the estimated amount of R$4,326 (R$4,712 at December 31, 2024).

**<u>Accounting policy for inventories</u>**

Inventories are determined by the weighted average cost method adjusted to the net realizable value when it is lower than their carrying amount.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less estimated cost of completion and estimated expenses to complete its sale, considering the purpose for which the inventories are held. Inventories with identifiable sales contracts have a net realizable value based on the contracted price, as, for example, in offshore operations (without physical tanking, with loading onto the ship and direct unloading at the customer) or auctions. Other items in inventory have a net realizable value based on general selling prices, considering the most reliable evidence available at the time of the estimate.

The net realizable value of inventories is determined by grouping similar items with the same characteristic or purpose. Changes in sales prices after the reporting date of the financial statements are considered in the calculation of the net realizable value if they confirm the conditions existing on that reporting date.

As of December 31, 2025, the balance of prepayments mainly relates to advances for for property, plant and equipment, relating to the construction of platforms (P-80, P-82, P-83, P-84 and P-85) and equipment, as well as advances for the acquisition of interest in Mero reservoir (3,5%) and in Atapu reservoir (0,95%), in partnership with Shell Brasil Petróleo Ltda., in the scope of the auction of uncontracted areas conducted by Pré-Sal Petróleo S.A. – PPSA. The signing of these agreements is expected for March 2026.

The contracts relating to the construction of platforms and equipment have associated guarantees capable of covering the advances made by Petrobras. These guarantees include bank guarantees, letters of credit, surety bonds and/or corporate guarantees.

The increase in the balance of prepayments in 2025, of R$9,692, refers mainly to the advance payment for the acquisition of rights in the Mero and Atapu deposits made in December 2025.

---

As of December 31, 2025, the average payment term in Brazil is 31 days (the same as in 2024), while for foreign suppliers the average term is 37 days for imported products and 26 days for other goods and services (31 days for imported products and 25 days for other goods and services in 2024).

The increase in the balance of trade payables in 2025, of R$3,289, refers mainly to increased acquisitions on credit, net of payments, of maritime transport services and the trading of oil and oil products, as well as amounts payable under Production Individualization Agreements.

**Forfaiting**

The Company has a program to encourage the development of the oil and gas production chain called "*Mais Valor"* (More Value), operated by a partner company on a 100% digital platform.

By using this platform, the suppliers who want to anticipate their receivables may launch a reverse auction, in which the winner is the financial institution which offers the lowest discount rate. The financial institution becomes the creditor of invoices advanced by the supplier, and Petrobras pays the invoices on the same date and under the conditions originally agreed with the supplier.

Invoices are advanced in the "*Mais Valor*" program exclusively at the discretion of the suppliers and do not change the terms, prices and commercial conditions contracted by Petrobras with such suppliers, as well as it does not add financial charges to the Company, therefore, the classification is maintained as Trade payables in Statements of Cash Flows (Cash flows from operating activities).

As of December 31, 2025, the balance advanced by suppliers, within the scope of the program, is R$733 (R$832 as of December 31, 2024) and has a payment term from 7 to 93 days and a weighted average term of 55 days (payment term from 7 to 92 days and a weighted average term of 58 days in 2024), after the contracted commercial conditions have been met.

18. Taxes

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.1.** **Income taxes** 

In Brazil, income taxes are calculated based on a 15% rate plus additional 10% on the taxable income for the IRPJ, and 9% on taxable income for the CSLL, considering the offset of tax loss carryforwards and negative basis of the CSLL, limited to 30% of the taxable income of the year. Net income obtained abroad by a direct or indirect subsidiary, or by an associated company, are considered in the calculation of income tax expenses in Brazil, through the application of the IRPJ and CSLL rates.

Abroad, income taxes are calculated based on a 25.8% rate of Corporate Income Tax (CIT) in the Netherlands, a 15% rate of Corporate Alternative Minimun Tax (CAMT) in the USA, in addition to the Global Minimum Tax (Pillar II) as mentioned in note 18.1.4.

Income taxes recoverable in Brazil refer mainly to tax credits resulting from the monthly process for estimation and payment of income taxes relating to 2023 and 2024, in addition to the negative balance of IRPJ and CSLL relating mainly to 2017, 2018 and 2019, for which the Company requested refund to the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service (RFB) and are presented in non-current assets. These credits are updated by the Selic interest rate.

The balance increased mainly due to the calculation of IRPJ and CSLL credits related to the 2024 fiscal year, in addition to the Selic rate update for IRPJ and CSLL credits.

The balance of the tax settlement programs is basically composed of the IRPJ and CSLL tax assessment notice included in the Special Tax Regularization Program (PERT) in 2017, regarding the full deductibility of obligations assumed by the company in 2008 in the Terms of Financial Commitment (TFC), signed with Petros and employee representative entities. The payment term is 145 successive monthly installments, updated by the Selic rate, starting in January 2018.

The current liabilities balance decreased by R$1,561 mainly due to: (i) reversals of net CIT provisions, on capital gains from the sale of assets of PNBV assets and other subsidiaries in the Netherlands, considering the stage of discussions in agreement with the Dutch tax authorities; and (ii) exchange rate variations of subsidiaries located abroad.

**Timing of reversal of deferred income taxes**

Deferred tax assets were recognized based on projections of taxable income in future periods supported by the assumptions within the Company's Business Plan 2026-2030, whose pillars are the preservation of financial strength, financial and environment resilience of projects, and focus on value creation.

Management considers that the deferred tax assets will be realized to the extent the deferred tax liabilities are reversed and expected taxable events occur based on its Business Plan 2026-2030.

The estimated schedule of recovery/reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2025 is set out in the following table:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Consolidated** | **Consolidated** |
|  | **Assets** | **Liabilities** |

As of December 31, 2025, the company has unused and unrecognized tax losses as a deferred tax asset, as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Consolidated** | **Consolidated** |
|  |  | **Assets** |

| Abroad | 2603 | 3931 |
| **Unrecognized deferred tax assets** | **2,825** | **3,954** |

---

The unrecorded tax credits abroad arise from accumulated tax losses of the subsidiaries Petrobras America Inc. and Petrobras de Valores Internacional de Espanha S.L.U., mainly from oil and gas exploration and production and refining activities in the United States.

An aging of the unrecognized deferred tax assets from companies abroad is set out below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.1.3.** **Uncertain tax treatments on income taxes** 

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has R$3,379 (R$4,748 as of December 31, 2024) of uncertain tax treatments, provisioned in the statement of financial position, mainly related to the deduction of amounts paid in the basis of calculation of income taxes in Brazil, as well as to the incidence of Corporate Income Tax (CIT) on transactions abroad, related to judicial and administrative proceedings.

In addition, the Company has R$25,151 of uncertain tax treatments (R$33,408 as of December 31, 2024), unprovisioned, in Brazil and abroad, on income taxes related to judicial and administrative proceedings, mainly relating to income of subsidiaries abroad, according to note 20.3.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has other positions that can be considered as uncertain tax treatments on income taxes amounting to R$27,026 (R$26,468 as of December 31, 2024), given the possibility of different interpretation by the tax authority. These uncertain tax treatments are supported by technical assessments and tax risk assessment methodology. Therefore, Petrobras believes that such positions are likely to be accepted by the tax authorities (including judicial courts).

Thus, as of December 31, 2025, the total amount of uncertain tax treatments amounts to R$55,556 (R$64,624 as of December 31, 2024), for which Petrobras will continue to defend its position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.1.4.** **Global Minimum Tax (Pillar II)** 

In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) released the Pillar II model rules to ensure that multinationals companies with annual revenues exceeding €750 million pay a minimum 15% tax on income in each jurisdiction where they operate (Global Minimum Tax).

The Pillar II provides that, if the Parent Entity is located in a jurisdiction that has not implemented these set of rules, this tax will be levied on the next entity in the organizational structure (Intermediate Parent Entity) located in a jurisdiction that has implemented it, following a top-down approach.

The Netherlands and Spain enacted new tax legislation to implement the Pillar II rules, effective January 2024. Singapore also implemented it, effective January 2025.

In 2025, an income tax expense of R$1,213 million (R$551 million as of December 31, 2024) was recognized, related to the jurisdiction of the Netherlands, where the effective tax rate did not reach the minimum limit of 15% foreseen for Pillar II legislation. No relevant tax liability is expected in the other jurisdictions where PIBBV has investments (including Spain).

Brazil implemented the Additional Domestic Tax in January 2025, known as the "additional CSLL," applicable only to Brazilian companies. Petrobras did not identify any amount due as this additional tax in 2025 under the rules applicable in Brazil.

The company applies the provisions of the amendments to IAS 12 – Income Taxes, and does not account for deferred taxes in relation to the potential impacts of Pillar 2 and the additional CSLL, that is, it does not recognize deferred tax assets or liabilities related to minimum global taxation.

**<u>Accounting policy for income taxes</u>**

The Company calculates income taxes in accordance with current legislation and applying the rates in effect at the end of reporting period. Income taxes expense for the period is recognized in the statement of income of the period, except when the tax arises from a transaction or event which is recognized directly in equity.

**a)** **Current income taxes**

Current income taxes are offset when they relate to income taxes levied on the same taxable entity and by the same tax authority, when there is a legal right and the entity has the intention to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities, simultaneously.

Uncertain tax treatments are periodically assessed, considering the probability of acceptance by the tax authority.

**b)** **Deferred income taxes**

Deferred income taxes are generally recognized on temporary differences between the tax base of an asset or liability and its carrying amount. They are measured at the tax rates that are provided for in the specific legislation to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and carryforward of unused tax losses or credits to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized, unless the deferred tax asset arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination, and at the time of the transaction does not affect either net income or taxable income (tax loss).

Deferred income taxes are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities, when the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority, on the same taxable entity, or in different taxable entities that intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or realize tax assets and settle tax liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or recovered.

**Social Integration Program (PIS) and Contribution for the Financing of Social Security (COFINS)**

Refer to credits of PIS and COFINS, which are federal social contributions levied on materials, goods and services acquired and used as inputs in the production of products, goods and services that generate revenues subject to these contributions. Current PIS and COFINS relate to this incidence, including tax credits requested to the Brazilian Federal Revenue Service.

Non-current PIS and COFINS mainly refer to the acquisition of goods and services for assets under construction, since their compensation is permitted only after these assets enter into production.

PIS and COFINS - unconstitutionality of the extended calculation basis arises from ordinary lawsuits filed against the Brazilian Federal Government, which were ruled in favor of the Company and granted the definitive right to recover those taxes. These lawsuits relate to the recovery of amounts of PIS and COFINS collected over finance income and exchange gains, in accordance with Law 9,718/1998, from February 1999 to January 2004.

The pending lawsuits have rulings in favor of the company and are awaiting the completion of the final stages related to the approval and confirmation of the calculations in court.

**Tax on the Circulation of Goods and on Interstate and Intermunicipal Transportation and Communication Services (ICMS)**

Refer to credits to be recovered arising from positive balances in the calculation of ICMS (Tax on Circulation of Goods and Services) according to the tax books of operational units, credits arising from ICMS payments in import operations of petroleum-derived fuels, credits resulting from operations of sending products for storage in third-party establishments, and credits arising from requests for refunds of untimely and undue credits, offset in accordance with the legislation of each state.

The portion of deferred ICMS originates from the acquisition of goods intended for fixed assets, which are offset at a rate of 1/48, being fully amortized over 4 years.

**Production taxes**

Production taxes are financial compensation due by companies that produce crude oil and natural gas in Brazilian territory. They are composed of royalties, production tax, signature bonuses and payment for retention or occupation of area. They include the amounts referring to an agreement with the ANP to close a legal proceeding involving the recalculation of royalties and special participations relating to oil production in the Jubarte field, from August 2009 to February 2011 and from December 2012 to February 2015.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.3.** **Enrollment to the tax settlement program** 

In June 2024, Petrobras enrolled in a tax settlement program (Transaction Notice PGFN-RFB 6/2024), closing relevant litigation related to the taxation of remittances abroad, arising from contracts relating to the chartering of vessels and rendering of services. Settling debts under dispute (contingent liabilities) relating to the taxation of CIDE, PIS and COFINS, from 2008 to 2013. This program brought economic benefits, avoiding costs with judicial guarantees, and included a 65% discount on the debt under dispute. The payment of the tax settlement was completed in the second half of 2024.

The enrollment in this program resulted in a R$10,390 expense in the consolidated result of 2024, net of reimbursements to Petrobras made by partners in the E&P consortia which approved enrollment in said program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.4.** **Tax Recovery Program – REFIS** 

In October 2025, Petrobras adhered to the Incentivized Tax Debt Settlement Program established by the state of Bahia through Law 14,936/2025, with the purpose of settling tax contingent liabilities. The effects of the program impacted the result of the fiscal year by R$801, mainly R$728 in tax expenses (other taxes).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**18.5.** **Tax reform** 

Complementary Law 214/2025 introduced Brazil's Consumption Tax Reform, replacing five taxes (PIS, COFINS, IPI, ICMS and ISS) with a new model composed by IBS (Tax on Goods and Services - *Imposto sobre Bens e Serviços*), CBS (Contribution on Goods and Services - *Contribuição sobre Bens e Serviços*), and IS (Selective Tax – *Imposto Seletivo*). IBS, under state and municipal jurisdiction, and CBS, at the federal level, will operate as VAT: broad tax base, non-cumulative structure, tax-exclusive calculation, uniform legislation, with exemption for exports and taxation of imports.

Repetro, a special tax regime for the oil and gas industry in Brazil, was preserved, suspending the incidence of IBS and CBS. IS, however, will apply to extracted mineral goods, with rates capped at 0.25% for minerals and zero for natural gas used as industrial feedstock and as transportation fuel. A specific regime will apply to fuels, under which a single incidence of IBS and CBS will be established for gasoline, ethanol, diesel, biodiesel, LPG and other fuels, according to a joint regulation issued by the ANP and the IBS Management Committee.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Implementation of this reform began on January 1, 2026, with the application of test rates for CBS and IBS. In 2027, the CBS is expected to be fully implemented, with the elimination of PIS and COFINS, and IS may start to be levied. From 2029 to 2032, ICMS and ISS rates will be gradually phased out while IBS rates will be progressively increased. By 2033, ICMS and ISS are expected to be fully repealed, completing the transition to the new consumption tax system.

Regarding PIS, COFINS, and ICMS tax credits as of December 31, 2025, the Company assesses that these credits remain available, in accordance with constitutional provisions of the transition period, and does not expect their extinction or any impediment to their recovery as a result of the reform.

Despite the progress of the reform to this date, significant uncertainties remain regarding the definition of the rates of the new taxes, the regulation of special tax regimes for specific sectors, the tax credit compensation method, the implementation of mechanisms such as split payment, and the issuance of complementary rules for regulated sectors, which prevents a reliable estimate of the impacts of the reform.

Due to these uncertainties, the impacts of the reform will only be known after the conclusion of the regulatory process for the subjects that still require definition. Thus, there is no effect of these changes on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025.

19. Employee benefits

Employee benefits are all forms of consideration given by the company in exchange for service rendered by employees or for the termination of employment. It also includes expenses with directors and other managers. Such benefits include salaries, post-employment benefits, termination benefits and other benefits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**19.1.1.** **Variable compensation program** 

The company recognizes the contribution of employees to the results achieved through two programs: a) profit sharing; and b) performance award program.

The amount established for variable compensation in 2025 is limited to 5% of adjusted EBITDA.

**Profit Sharing (Participações nos lucros ou resultados - PLR)**

Profit sharing is a variable remuneration mechanism that aims to share the Company's results with its employees. PLR is the company's main variable remuneration practice, also covering those occupying bonus positions, and providing for individual limits according to the participants' remuneration.

For of PLR approved by the Secretariat of Management and Governance of State-owned Companies (SEST), the Company needs to meet the following triggers such as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Declaration
and payment of distribution to shareholders approved by the Company's Board of Directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net
income for the year and achieving at least 80% of the weighted average of a set of proposed indicators;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The
total amount is limited to the lower of 6.25% of the net income and to 25% of the dividends distributed to shareholders of Petrobras
in the year. In 2025, the PLR calculated corresponded to 6.25% of the net income of the year, according to the average percentage of
achievement of the indicators.

In 2025, Petrobras:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Settled
R$2,351 (R$2,265 in the Parent Company), considering the agreement and individual limits according to their remuneration; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provisioned
R$3,678 relating to the 2025 fiscal year (R$2,387 in 2024), recorded in other operating expenses. At the parent company, the provision
was R$3,595 (R$2,266 in 2024).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**Performance award program (*Programa de Prêmio por Desempenho* - PRD)**

The PRD intends to recognize the effort and individual performance of each employee to achieve the Company's results. The amounts to be paid to each employee continues to be defined by the achievement of the key metrics (which currently are Delta Valor Petrobras - VALOR, Greenhouse Gas Emissions Target Achievement Indicator - IAGEE, and Indicator of Commitment to the Environment - ICMA) and of the individual goals (performance management score for all employees, with exception of executive managers, for whom the scorecard of their respective departments will be considered).

The PRD establishes that, in order to trigger this payment, it is necessary to have a declaration and payment of distribution to shareholders approved by the Company's Board of Directors, as well as net income for the year. The total amount is limited to a percentage of the net income or the Adjusted EBITDA for the year. This program complements the PLR.

In 2025, the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Paid the amount of R$2,076 (R$1,570 at the parent
company) related to bonus programs, considering the fulfillment of company performance metrics and the individual performance of employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Provisioned the amount of R$3,865 (R$2,548 in 2024)
related to the 2025 fiscal year, recorded in other operating expenses, including the current Petrobras bonus program and other programs
of the consolidated companies. At the parent company, the provision was R$3,224 (R$2,032 in 2024).

**<u>Accounting policy for variable compensation programs (PLR and PRD)</u>**

The provisions for variable compensation programs are recognized throughout the fiscal year in which the employee has provided services. They represent the estimates of future disbursements arising from past events, based on the criteria and metrics of the PRD and PLR, provided that the requirements for activating these programs are met and that the obligation can be reliably estimated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**19.2.** **Termination benefits** 

They are those provided by the termination of the employment contract as a result of: i) the company's decision to terminate the employee's employment before the normal retirement date; or ii) the employee's decision to accept an offer of benefits in exchange for termination of employment.

**Voluntary severance programs**

The company has voluntary severance programs for employees who were already retired through the INSS (Brazilian National Social Security Institute), and whose benefit start date was equal to or prior to November 12, 2019, and specific severance programs.

As of December 31, 2025, the balance of R$497 (R$447 in 2024) corresponds to 906 employees enrolled in voluntary severance programs with expected departure dates by December 2027.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**19.3.** **Post-employment benefits** 

The Company maintains a health care plan for its employees in Brazil (active and retiree) and their dependents, and five other major types of post-retirement pension benefits (collectively referred to as "pension plans").

The balances related to post-employment benefits granted to employees are shown below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**19.3.1.** **Nature and risks associated with defined benefit plans** 

**Health Care Plan**

The health plan, named AMS (*Saúde Petrobras*), is administered and operated by the *Associação Petrobras de Saúde* (APS), a non-profit civil association and includes prevention and health care programs. The plan offers health assistance to all current employees, retirees, pensioners and eligible family groups, in accordance with the criteria defined in the regulations and in the collective bargaining agreement and is open to new employees.

Currently sponsored by Petrobras, Transpetro, PBIO, TBG and Termobahia, the plan is mainly exposed to the risk of increased medical costs due to inflation, new technologies, new types of coverage and a higher level of use of medical benefits. The company continually improves the quality of its technical and administrative processes, as well as the health programs offered to beneficiaries, in order to mitigate this risk.

Employees, retirees and pensioners make monthly fixed contributions to cover high-risk procedures and variable contributions referring to the cost of other medical and dental procedures, both based on the plan's contribution tables, which are defined based on parameters, such as the salary and age ranges. The plan also includes assistance with the purchase of some medicines through reimbursement or purchase and home delivery, with co-participation from the beneficiaries.

Benefits are paid by the Company based on the costs incurred by the beneficiaries. The financial participation of the Company and the beneficiaries on the expenses are provided for in the plan rules and in the ACT, currently at 70% by the Company and 30% by the participants. This cost-sharing arrangement was resumed in April 2024 through an amendment to the collective bargaining agreement with labor unions.

**Annual revision of the health care plan**

At December 31, 2025, this obligation was revised using the updated actuarial assumptions, results of which are shown in note 19.3.2.

**Pension plans**

The sponsored pension plans are managed by Petros Foundation, which was constituted as a non-profit legal entity governed by private law with administrative and financial autonomy.

The pension plans are regulated by the *Conselho Nacional de Previdência Complementar* – CNPC, which includes all guidelines and procedures to be adopted by the plans for their management and relationship with stakeholders.

Petros periodically evaluates the plans in compliance with the supplementary pension rules in force and, when applicable, establishes measures with the objective of offering sustainability to the plans.

The net obligation with pension plans recorded by the Company is measured in accordance with the requirements of IFRS Accounting Standards, which has a different measurement methodology to that applicable to pension funds in Brazil, which are regulated by the CNPC.

The main differences between these methodologies is that, in the CNPC criterion, Petros Foundation considers the future cash flows of normal and extraordinary sponsor's contributions, discounted to present value, while the Company considers these cash flows as they are realized. In addition, Petros sets the real interest rate based on profitability expectations and on parameters set by PREVIC - *Superintendência Nacional de Previdência Complementar* (National Supplementary Pension Authority), while the Company uses a rate that combines the maturity profile of the obligations with the yield curve of government bonds. Regarding the plan assets, Petros marks government bonds on the curve or through the process of marked to market, while the Company marks all of them at market value.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The major post-retirement pension benefits sponsored by the Company are:

· Petros Plan - Renegotiated (PPSP-R);

· Petros Plan - Renegotiated - Pre-70 (PPSP-R Pre-70);

· Petros Plan - Non-renegotiated (PPSP-NR);

· Petros Plan - Non-renegotiated - Pre-70 (PPSP-NR
Pre-70);

· Petros 2 Plan (PP-2); and

· Petros 3 Plan (PP-3)

The PPSP-R, PPSP-R Pre-70, PPSP-NR, PPSP-NR Pre-70 and PP-3 plans are sponsored by Petrobras. The PP-2 plan is sponsored by Petrobras, Transpetro, PBIO, TBG, Termobahia and Termomacaé.

The PPSP-R and PPSP-NR were created in 2018 as a split of Petros Plan (PPSP) originally established by the Company in July 1970. On January 1, 2020, PPSP-R Pre-70 and PPSP-NR Pre-70 were created as a split of PPSP-R and PPSP-NR, respectively.

Pension plans supplement the income of their participants during retirement, in addition to guaranteeing a pension for the beneficiaries in case of the death of a participant. The benefit consists of a monthly income supplementing the benefit granted by the Brazilian Social Security Institute.

The following table provides other characteristics of these plans:

**Annual review of pension plans**

As on December 31, 2025, liabilities were remeasured using the actuarial assumptions in force, the results of which are shown in table (a) of item 19.3.2 – Amounts in the financial statements related to defined benefit plans.

**19.3.2** **Values in Petrobras' financial statements related to defined benefit plans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**a)** **Changes in the actuarial liabilities recognized in the statement of financial position** 

Represents the company's obligation, net of collateral assets (in case of pension plans) and discounted to present value, calculated in accordance with the methodology established in CPC 33 (R1) - Employee Benefits (IAS 19), which differs from the accounting and actuarial practices adopted by the pension funds regulated by the *Conselho Nacional de Previdência Complementar.*

As of December 31, 2025, the increase in actuarial liabilities related to post-employment benefit plans basically refers to an actuarial loss of R$15,620, recognized in shareholders' equity, with the remeasurement of the liability arising from changes in actuarial assumptions between 2025 and 2024, mainly due to the increase in the rate of change in medical and hospital costs – VCMH and the reduction in the discount rate.

Information on the variations in the main assumptions applied to the actuarial review is set out in the table in note 19.3.6 – Measurement uncertainties associated with the defined benefit obligation.

The movement of obligations related to pension and health plans with defined benefit characteristics is represented below:

c) Changes on the fair value of plan assets

Petrobras has four pension plans, PPSP-R, PPSP-NR, PPSP-R pre-70 and PPSP-NR pre-70, in the phase of consumption of the guaranteeing asset, and one plan, PP2, whose most participants are in the wealth accumulation phase.

The evolution of the guaranteeing asset reflects these characteristics of the plans, being the result of the inflow of contributions and the redemption of assets for payment of benefits, in addition to the influence of the profitability of the investments of the assets.

**Investment management of pension plan assets** 

Petros Foundation prepares annually Investment Policies (PI) specific to each plan, following two models:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) for Petros 2, the achievement of the actuarial goal
with the lowest value at risk; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) for defined benefit plans, the minimal mismatch in
net cash flows, conditioned to the achievement of the actuarial target.

Pension plans assets follow a long-term investment strategy based on the risks assessed for each different class of assets and provide for diversification, in order to lower portfolio risk. The portfolio profile must comply with the Brazilian National Monetary Council (*Conselho Monetário Nacional* – CMN) regulations.

Petros Foundation establishes investment policies for 5-year periods, reviewed annually, using an asset liability management model (ALM) to address net cash flow mismatches of the benefit plans, based on liquidity and solvency parameters.

Pension plan assets by type of asset are set out as follows:

**<u>Accounting policy for post-employment defined benefits</u>**

The obligations related to post-employment defined benefit plans and health-care plans are recognized as liabilities in the statement of financial position based on actuarial calculations which are revised annually by an independent qualified actuary (updating for material changes in actuarial assumptions and estimates of expected future benefits), using the projected credit unit method, net of the fair value of plan assets, when applicable, from which the obligations are to be directly settled.

Under the projected credit unit method, each period of service gives rise to an additional unit of benefit entitlement and each unit is measured separately to determine the final obligation. Actuarial assumptions include demographic and financial assumptions, medical costs estimate, historical data related to benefits paid and employee contributions, as set out in note 4.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Service cost are accounted for within the statement of income and comprises: (i) current service cost, which is the increase in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from employee service in the current period; (ii) past service cost, which is the change in the present value of the defined benefit obligation for employee service in prior periods, resulting from a plan amendment (the introduction, modification, or withdrawal of a defined benefit plan) or a curtailment (a significant reduction by the entity in the number of employees covered by a plan); and (iii) any gain or loss on settlement.

Net interest on the net defined benefit liability is the change during the period in the net defined benefit liability that arises from the passage of time. Such interest is accounted for in the statement of income.

Remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability is recognized in shareholders' equity, in other comprehensive income, and comprises: (i) actuarial gains and losses and (ii) return on plan assets, excluding net interest on the net defined liability, net of defined benefit plan assets.

The Company also contributes to defined contribution plans, on a parity basis in relation to the employee's contribution, that are expensed when incurred.

20. Provisions for legal proceedings, judicial deposits and contingent
liabilities

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.1.** **Provisions for legal proceedings** 

The Company recognizes provisions for legal, administrative and arbitral proceedings, based on the best estimate of the costs, for which it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required and that can be reliably estimated. These proceedings mainly include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Tax claims including: (i) VAT tax collection - bunker
oil involving several states; (ii) claims relating to benefits previously taken for Brazilian federal tax credits applied that were subsequently
alleged to be disallowable, including disallowance of PIS and COFINS tax credits; and (iii) social security contributions - claims for
alleged non-payment on allowances and bonuses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Labor claims, in particular: (i) several individual
and collective labor claims; and (ii) legal actions from outsourced employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Civil claims, in particular: (i) lawsuits related
to contracts; (ii) legal and administrative proceedings involving fines applied by the ANP - Brazilian Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas
and Biofuels (*Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis*), mainly relating to production
measurement systems, as well as administrative and judicial proceedings that discuss the difference between special participation and
royalties in several oil fields; (iii) lawsuits that discuss matters related to pension plans managed by Petros; and (iv) lawsuits that
discuss compensation related to expropriation and right-of-way easements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Environmental claims, specially: (i) fines relating
to an environmental accident in the State of Paraná in 2000; (ii) fines relating to the Company's offshore operation;
and (iii) public civil action for oil spill in 2004 in Serra do Mar State Park.

Provisions for legal proceedings are set out as follows:

In preparing its consolidated financial statements of 2025, the Company considered all available information concerning legal proceedings in which the Company is a defendant, in order to estimate the amounts of obligations and probability that outflows of resources will be required.

In 2025, the increase in liabilities was due mainly to changes in the following cases:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$2,457 in the provision for tax litigation related
to ICMS Vat tax collection - bunker oil;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$1,338 in the provision for civil litigation involving
contractual issues; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$339 in the provision related to labor lawsuits.

These effects were offset mainly by: (i) the agreement to settle the litigation with EIG, as detailed in note 20.4.3; (ii) R$749 in fines for non-compliance with ancillary obligations transferred to remote loss; and (iii) R$541 related to collective actions requiring the review of the methodology for calculating the Minimum Remuneration by Level and Regime (RMNR) supplement, as detailed in note 20.3.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.2.** **Judicial deposits** 

The Company makes deposits in judicial phases, mainly to suspend the chargeability of the tax debt and to maintain its tax compliance. Judicial deposits are set out in the table below according to the nature of the corresponding lawsuits:

(1) Includes, in 2024, R$6,653 referring to the nominal values of deposits used when enrolling into the tax settlement program, in the second quarter of 2024, on the incidence of CIDE, PIS and COFINS on remittances abroad under a vessel and platform charter agreement as detailed in note 18.

In 2025, the company made net judicial deposits totaling R$2,991, highlighting the deposits and the nature of the related contingencies:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$3,861 related to Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) and
Social Contribution on Net Income (CSLL) due to the non-addition of income from subsidiaries and affiliates domiciled abroad to the calculation
basis of the parent company's IRPJ and CSLL;

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$2,805 related to the incidence of PIS and COFINS
on tax amnesty programs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$1,562 related to Production Taxes amounts related
to the unification of production fields (Cernambi, Tupi, Tartaruga Verde and Tartaruga Mestiça);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$945 related to social security contributions -
bonuses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· R$529 related to service contracts, with emphasis
on gas distribution contracts for thermoelectric plants.

These effects were offset, primarily, by R$6,406 relating to the redemption of judicial deposits on the incidence of CIDE, PIS and COFINS related to the chartering of platforms.

The Company maintains a Negotiated Legal Proceeding (NJP) agreement with the Brazilian National Treasury Attorney General's Office (PGFN), aiming to postpone judicial deposits related to federal tax lawsuits with values exceeding R$200, which allows judicial discussion without the immediate disbursement.

To achieve this, the Company makes production capacity available as a guarantee from the Tupi, Sapinhoá, and Roncador fields. As the judicial deposits are made, the mentioned capacity is released for other processes that may be included in the NJP.

The Company's management understands that the mentioned NJP provides greater cash predictability and ensures the maintenance of federal tax regularity. As of December 31, 2025, the balance of production capacity held in guarantee in the NJP is R$7,795 (R$13,362 as of December 31, 2024).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.3.** **Contingent liabilities** 

Contingent liabilities for which either the Company is unable to make a reliable estimate of the expected financial effect that might result from resolution of the proceeding, or a cash outflow is not probable, are not recognized as liabilities in the financial statements but are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, unless the likelihood of any outflow of resources embodying economic benefits is considered remote.

The estimates of contingent liabilities are indexed to inflation and updated by applicable interest rates. As of December 31, 2025, estimated contingent liabilities for which the possibility of loss is classified as possible are set out in the following table:

| **Plaintiff: Federal Revenue of Brazil** |  |  |
| 1) Disallowance of credits and deduction of the PIS and COFINS tax base, including in ship or pay contracts and charters of aircraft and vessels. |  |  |
| Current status: The claims involve lawsuits in different administrative and judicial stages. In 2025, the increase refers, in particular, to the receipt of a new infraction notice. | 24846 | 17880 |
| 2) Incidence of social security contributions over contingent bonuses paid to employees. |  |  |
| Current status: Awaiting defense judgment and appeals at the administrative and judicial levels. In 2025, the increase occurred, in particular, due to the receipt of new infraction notice and active debt registration in one of the processes. | 8579 | 6750 |
| 3) Collection of PIS/COFINS – Incidences on Amnesties. |  |  |
| Current status: Collection of social contributions PIS/COFINS, resulting from the tax transaction provided for in article 3 of Law 13,586/2017. In 2025, the increase refers to monetary indexation. | 7677 | 6990 |
| 4) Withholding income tax (IRRF), Contribution of Intervention in the Economic Domain (CIDE) and PIS and COFINS- Imports on remittances for payments of vessel charters. |  |  |
| Current status: The claim about the incidence of withholding income tax (*Imposto de Renda Retido na Fonte* - IRRF), occurred from 1999 to 2002, involves the legality of the normative rule issued by the Federal Revenue of Brazil, which ensured no taxation over those remittances. The decreased amount in 2025 occurred due to the definitive exclusion of the penalty amount. The remaining amount (withholding income tax and interest) remains under discussion in the ongoing legal action. | 6551 | 10539 |
| 5) Requests to compensate federal taxes disallowed by the Brazilian Federal Tax Authority |  |  |
| Current status: This claim involves lawsuits in different administrative and judicial stages. The increased amount in 2025 was due, in particular, to the receipt of a new decision to disapprove the project. | 3244 | 2411 |
| 6) Collection of Contribution of Intervention in the Economic Domain (CIDE) on transactions with fuel retailers and service stations protected by judicial injunctions determining that fuel sales were made without gross-up of such tax. |  |  |
| Current status: This claim involves lawsuits in different judicial stages. In 2025, the increase refers to monetary indexation. | 2815 | 2698 |
| **Plaintiff: States of SP, RJ, PA, MA, PE, AM, CE and SE Finance Departments** |  |  |
| 7) VAT (ICMS) and VAT credits on internal consumption of bunker fuel and marine diesel, destined to chartered vessels. |  |  |
| Current status: This claim involves lawsuits in different judicial and administrative stages. In 2025, new infraction notice was received and some claim expectations changed. | 2070 | 2653 |
| **Plaintiff: States of RJ, AM, PA, BA, RO, PE and RS Finance Departments** |  |  |
| 8) Alleged failure to write-down VAT (ICMS) credits related to zero tax rated or non-taxable sales made by the Company and its customers. |  |  |
| Current status: This claim involves lawsuits in different administrative and judicial stages. In 2025, the increased amount was mainly due to new infraction notices received. | 13351 | 6551 |

| **Description of civil matters** | **2025** | **2024** |
| **Plaintiff: Several goods and service providers** |  |  |
| 1) Claims related to goods and services supply contracts, with emphasis on discussions about economic and financial imbalance, contractual breach, fines and early termination of contracts. |  |  |
| Current status: The claim involve lawsuits in different judicial stages. In 2025, there was an increase in value due to new lawsuits and unfavorable decisions to Petrobras. | 21324 | 20552 |
| **Plaintiff: Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis – ANP** |  |  |
| 2) Proceedings challenging an ANP order requiring Petrobras to: unite Tupi and Cernambi fields on the BM-S-11 joint venture; to unite Baúna and Piracaba fields; to unite Tartaruga Verde and Mestiça fields and to unite Berbigão and Sururu fields, which would cause changes in the payment of special participation charge. |  |  |
|  Current status: This list involves claims that are disputed in court and in arbitration proceedings, as follows. In 2025, there was an increase in the value, due to the judicial deposits that are made by Petrobras:<br> a) Tupi and Cernanbi: initially, the Company made judicial deposits for the alleged differences resulting from the special participation. However, with the reversal of the favorable injunction, the payment of these alleged differences was made directly to ANP, and such judicial deposits were resumed in the 2nd Quarter of 2019. Following the resumption of arbitration, the Arbitration Court issued a decision allowing the Company to provide financial guarantees for future installments of special participations, which has been put on practice since the 3rd quarter of 2025;<br> b) Baúna and Piracaba: the decision maintaining the suspension of arbitration was revoked, and the arbitration procedure is ongoing;<br> c) Tartaruga Verde and Mestiça: Petrobras was also authorized to make deposits of the disputed amounts, which continue to occur. The Federal Regional Court of the 2nd Region has so far ruled on the jurisdiction of the Arbitral Court, authorizing the continuation of the arbitration.<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d) Berbigão and Sururu: ANP made a decision on January 24, 2025, determining the unification of the Berbigão and Sururu fields, located in the BM-S-11A concession, in the pre-salt layer of Santos Basin, operated by Petrobras with a 42.5% interest. The decision results in the reporting of production from the Berbigão and Sururu fields in a single field, increasing the rate applied to the corresponding collection of Special Participation related to the unified field, retroactively to the date of commencement of production. The arbitration procedure is in course, and a preliminary decision has been issued allowing the presentation of a financial guarantee for the difference in special participations resulting from the unification of the fields. | 21345 | 16634 |
| **Plaintiff: *Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis* - ANP and other agencies** |  |  |
|  3) Administrative and legal proceedings that discuss:<br> a) Difference in special participation and royalties in different fields;<br> b) Fines imposed by ANP due to alleged failure to comply with the minimum exploration activities program, as well as alleged irregularities relating to compliance with oil and gas industry regulation. It also includes fines imposed by other agencies. |  |  |
| Current status: The claims involve lawsuits in different administrative and judicial stages. In 2025, the reduction refers, in particular, to the change in monetary indexation and interest rates, resulting from the application of the parameters of Law 14.905/2024 and the consolidated jurisprudence of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ). | 10945 | 11537 |
| **Plaintiff: Federations Oil Workers, Unions, employees and retired personnel from Petros** |  |  |
| 4) Collective and individual actions that discuss topics related to Petros plans. |  |  |
| Current status: The matter involves proceedings at different judicial stages. In 2025, the reduction refers, in particular, to the change in monetary indexation and interest rates, resulting from the application of the parameters of Law 14.905/2024 and the consolidated jurisprudence of the STJ. | 7887 | 12053 |

| 5) Judicial and arbitration proceedings that discuss asset sales carried out by Petrobras. |  |  |
| Current status: The matter involves proceedings in different judicial and arbitration stages. In 2025, the increased amount is mainly due to the reclassification of expected loss in a process. | 3074 | 1633 |

**20.3.2. Minimum Compensation Based on Employee's Position and Work Schedule (*Remuneração Mínima por Nível e Regime* - RMNR)**

The RMNR consists of a minimum remuneration guaranteed to employees, based on salary level, work schedule and geographic location. This remuneration policy was created and implemented by Petrobras in 2007 through collective negotiation with union representatives, and approved at employee meetings, with the formula for calculating the supplement to this minimum remuneration adopted by the Company later being questioned in court by employees and Unions.

The Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) recognized in March 2024 that the calculation formula used by the Company is valid and in accordance with what was negotiated between the parties. The Superior Labor Court (TST) issued, in May 2025, a ruling that followed the STF's decision, revoking its previous position.

In view of the standardization of judicial understanding of the TST, the Company began to classify the collective RMNR lawsuits as having a remote expectation of loss. At the same time, the Brazilian Court closed several lawsuits with decisions favorable to the Company, which led to a reduction in liabilities. In 2025, the decrease in the possible loss of R$30,521 is mainly due to the definitive closure of a collective claim of the Norte Fluminense Union, with a decision favorable to the Company.

As of December 31, 2025, there are several legal proceedings related to the Minimum Remuneration by Level and Work Regime (RMNR) reflected in the company's financial statements, with R$6 (R$546 as of December 31, 2024) classified as probable loss, recognized in liabilities as a provision for legal and administrative proceedings, and R$32 (R$30,553 as of December 31, 2024) classified as possible loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.4.** **Class action and related proceedings** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.4.1.** **Class action in the Netherlands** 

On January 23, 2017, Stichting Petrobras Compensation Foundation ("Foundation") filed a class action in the Netherlands, at the District Court of Rotterdam, against Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras, Petrobras International Braspetro B.V. (PIB BV), Petrobras Global Finance B.V. (PGF), Petrobras Oil & Gas B.V. (PO&G) and some former Petrobras managers. The Foundation alleges that it represents the interests of an unidentified group of investors and asserts that, based on the facts revealed by the Lava-Jato Operation, the defendants acted illegally before the investors.

On May 26, 2021, the District Court of Rotterdam decided that the class action should proceed and that the arbitration clause of Petrobras' bylaws does not prevent the Company's shareholders from having access to the Dutch Judiciary and have their interests represented by the "Foundation". However, the interests of investors who have already started arbitration against Petrobras or who are parties to legal proceedings in which the applicability of the arbitration clause has been definitively recognized are excluded from the scope of the action.

On October 30, 2024, after the parties' comments on the technical evidence, the District Court of Rotterdam issued a ruling, in which it broadly accepted Petrobras' arguments regarding the requests presented in favor of the Company's shareholders and considered that: i) in accordance with Brazilian legislation, all damages alleged by the Foundation qualify as indirect and are not subject to compensation; and ii) according to Argentine law, shareholders cannot, in principle, request compensation from the Company for damages alleged by the Foundation, and the Foundation has not demonstrated that it represents a sufficient number of investors who could, in theory, present such a request.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Therefore, the District Court of Rotterdam rejected the Foundation's allegations in accordance with Brazilian and Argentine law, which resulted in the rejection of all requests made in favor of shareholders. With respect to certain bondholders, the Court considered that Petrobras and PGF acted illegally under Luxembourg law, while PGF acted illegally under Dutch law.

Furthermore, the District Court of Rotterdam confirmed the following issues of the decision released to the market on July 26, 2023: (i) rejection of the allegations against PIBBV, POG BV and the former CEOs of Petrobras from July 2005 to February 2015; and (ii) prescription of requests formulated in accordance with Spanish legislation.

Petrobras, the Foundation and PGF have appealed against the ruling and previous interim decisions and their appeals are pending of judgment.

In relation to bondholders, the Foundation cannot claim compensation under the class action, which will depend not only on a final result favorable to the interests of the investors in the class action, but also on the filing of subsequent actions by or on behalf of the investors by the Foundation itself, an opportunity in which Petrobras and PGF will be able to offer all the defenses already presented in the class action and others that it deems appropriate, including in relation to the occurrence and quantification of any damages that must be proven by the potential beneficiaries of the decision or by the Foundation. Any compensation for the alleged damages will only be determined by court decisions in subsequent actions.

This class action involves complex issues and the outcome is subject to substantial uncertainties, which depend on factors such as: the scope of the arbitration clause of the Petrobras Bylaws, the jurisdiction of the Dutch court, the scope of the agreement that ended the Class Action in the United States, the Foundation's legitimacy to represent the interests of investors, the several laws applicable to the case, the information obtained from the production phase of evidence, the expert analyses, the timetable to be defined by the Hague Court of Appeal and the judicial decisions on key issues of the process, possible appeals, including before the Dutch Supreme Court, as well as the fact that the Foundation seeks only a declaratory decision in this class action.

The Company, based on the assessments of its advisors, considers that there are not enough indicative elements to qualify the universe of potential beneficiaries of a possible final decision unfavorable to Petrobras' interests, nor to quantify the supposedly compensable damages.

Thus, it is currently not possible to predict whether the Company will be liable for the effective payment of damages in any future individual claims, as this analysis will depend on the outcome of these complex procedures. In addition, it is not possible to know which investors will be able to bring subsequent individual actions related to this matter against Petrobras.

Furthermore, the claims formulated are broad, cover a multi-year period and involve a wide variety of activities and, in the current scenario, the impacts of such claims are highly uncertain. The uncertainties inherent in all of these issues affect the duration of final resolution of this action. As a result, Petrobras is unable to estimate an eventual loss resulting from this action. However, Petrobras continues to reject the Foundation's allegations, in relation to which it was considered a victim by all Brazilian authorities, including the Supreme Federal Court.

Petrobras and its subsidiaries reject the allegations made by the Foundation and will continue to defend themselves vigorously.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.4.2.** **Arbitration and other legal proceedings in Argentina** 

In relation to the arbitration in Argentina, the Argentine Supreme Court denied the appeal, but the Consumidores Damnificados Asociación Civil para su Defensa (formerly Consumidores Financieros Asociación Civil, "Association") filed a new appeal to the Argentine Supreme Court, which was also denied, thus the arbitration was sent to the Arbitration Court. This arbitration discusses Petrobras' liability for an alleged loss of market value of Petrobras' shares in Argentina, as a result of the so-called Lava Jato Operation. The Company does not have elements that allow it to provide a reliable estimate of the potential loss in this arbitration.

In parallel to such arbitration, the Association also initiated a collective action before the Civil and Commercial Court of Buenos Aires, in Argentina, with Petrobras appearing spontaneously on April 10, 2023, within the scope of which it alleges Petrobras' responsibility for an alleged loss of the market value of Petrobras' securities in Argentina, as a result of allegations made within the scope of Lava Jato Operation and their impact on the Company's financial statements prior to 2015. Petrobras presented its defense on August 30, 2023. Petrobras denies the allegations presented by the Association and will defend itself against the accusations made by the author of the class action. The Company does not have elements that allow it to provide a reliable estimate of the potential loss in this arbitration.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Regarding criminal proceeding in Argentina related to an alleged fraudulent offer of securities, aggravated by the fact that Petrobras allegedly declared false data in its financial statements prior to 2015, on September 3, 2025, the lower court recognized the statute of limitations on the criminal action and ordered its dismissal. The judgment dismissing the criminal action followed the Court of Appeals' decision on April 3, 2025, which overturned the previous decision to prosecute Petrobras and the previously ordered injunction. On March 2, 2026, the second instance of the Argentine Court rejected the Association's appeal against the dismissal of the criminal case. This decision is subject to appeal.

As for the other criminal action for alleged non-compliance with the obligation to publish a "press release" in the Argentine market about the existence of a class action filed by Consumidores Damnificados Asociación Civil before the Commercial Court, on March 25, 2025, the 1st instance of the Argentine Court closed the action because it considered that there was no relevant fact that should be reported under local legislation. As there was no appeal, the decision became final.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.4.3.** **Lawsuit in United States regarding Sete Brasil Participações S.A ("Sete")** 

The EIG Energy Fund XIV, L.P. and affiliates ("EIG") filed in May 2016 a lawsuit against Petrobras, before the District Court of Columbia, United States, to recover alleged losses related to its investment in Sete Brasil Participações S.A.

On March 7, 2025, Petrobras and EIG entered into an agreement to settle litigation between the parties. Under the terms of this agreement, Petrobras paid EIG the amount of US$283 million, while EIG requested the termination of the lawsuit pending in the District Court of Columbia and the cancellation of the precautionary measure blocking the Company's assets acquired in the Netherlands, as well as waived any rights related to the dispute. Therefore, there is no further legal dispute between the parties regarding this matter.

This agreement does not constituted admission of guilt or wrongdoing by Petrobras and met the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, considering the US legislation applicable to the trial of the case, as well as the procedural stage and characteristics of litigations in the Federal Courts of the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**20.5.** **Arbitrations proposed by non-controlling shareholders in Brazil** 

Petrobras is also currently a party to seven arbitrations proceedings before the Market Arbitration Chamber (Câmara de Arbitragem do Mercado - CAM), linked to the Brazilian Stock Exchange (B3), brought by investors who purchased Petrobras' shares traded on B3. Six of these arbitrations were initiated by national and foreign investors. The other proceeding was brought by an association that is not a shareholder of the Company and intended to be a collective arbitration, through representation of all non-controlling shareholders of Petrobras that acquired shares on B3 between January 22, 2010 and July 28, 2015. Investors claim alleged financial losses caused by facts related to the investigations of the so-called Lava Jato investigation.

These claims involve complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties and involve factors such as the novelty of the legal theories, the timing of the Chamber of Arbitration decisions, the information produced in discovery, besides analysis by retained experts.

The claims asserted are broad and span a multi-year period. The uncertainties inherent in all such matters affect the amount and timing of their ultimate resolution. As a result, the Company does not have elements that allow it to provide a reliable estimate of the potential loss in this arbitration.

Depending on the outcome of the remaining complaints, the Company may have to pay substantial amounts, which may have a significant effect on its consolidated financial position, financial performance and cash flows in a certain period. However, Petrobras does not recognize responsibility for the losses alleged by investors in these arbitrations.

These arbitrations are in different stages of processing.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

In relation to one of the arbitrations, proposed by two institutional investors, on May 26, 2020, a partial award was issued which generally recognized the Company's responsibility, but not determined the payment of amounts by Petrobras. Against these decisions, Petrobras filed a lawsuit for the annulment of the partial arbitral award on July 20, 2020, as the Company understands that the award contains serious flaws and improprieties. On November 11, 2020, the 5th Business Court of Rio de Janeiro annulled the partial arbitration award, recognizing the serious flaws and improprieties pointed out by Petrobras. At the moment, the ruling is awaited after the appeals filed at the time have been judged. The appeals against this decision are still pending judgement of a final decision. In compliance with CAM rules, the lawsuit is confidential and only available to those involved in the original arbitration proceeding.

On September 11, 2024, in the arbitration that was intended to be collective, a final arbitration ruling was handed down, in favor of Petrobras, extinguishing the referred arbitration, without resolution on the merits, due to the applicant's active illegitimacy to act as a procedural substitute. The arbitration is confidential, having become final on November 29, 2024.

In turn, on January 9, 2025, in another of these arbitrations initiated by several foreign investors, a final arbitration award was handed down in favor of Petrobras. The sentence dismissed the request, accepting one of the defense theses presented by Petrobras, recognizing that, based on Brazilian law, there is no legal permit that authorizes investors to bring an action for compensation against the Company for indirect damages, such as those related to the devaluation of the value of shares. This arbitration is confidential, as are the others in progress.

Petrobras will continue to defend itself in this and other arbitrations.

<u>**Accounting policy for provisions for legal proceedings, contingent liabilities and contingent assets**</u>

The Company recognizes provisions for legal, administrative and arbitration proceedings when the technical assessment of its legal advisors and the judgment of management consider that it is more likely than not that a present obligation exists and the other conditions to recognize a provision are met, including that it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in explanatory notes when the likelihood of outflows is possible, including those whose amounts cannot be estimated, considering the best information available to the date of the issuance of these financial statements.

The methodology used to estimate the provisions is described in note 4.5.

Contingent assets are not recognized, but are disclosed in explanatory notes when the inflow of economic benefits is considered probable and the amount is considered material. However, if the inflow of economic benefits is virtually certain, which, in general, considers the final and unappealable decision, and if the value can be reliably measured, the related asset is not a contingent asset anymore and it is recognized.

21. Provision for decommissioning costs

The following table details the amount of the provision for decommissioning costs by producing area:

The reduction in the total provision balance in 2025 is mainly due to: (i) the appreciation of the real against the dollar, impacting dollar cost estimates; (ii) the revision of tariffs for activities related to the decommissioning of wells and equipment; and (iii) the increase in the risk-adjusted real discount rate to 4.66% p.a. (4.56% in 2024).

The use of the provision in 2025, amounting to R$9,787, increased compared to 2024 (R$7,894), due to higher decommissioning levels, mainly in the Guaricema and Piranema fields, which are in the process of being returned to the ANP.

The maturity estimates for the obligations are presented below:

**<u>Accounting policy for decommissioning costs</u>**

The initial recognition of legal obligations to remove equipment and restore land or sea areas at the end of operations occurs after the declaration of commercial feasibility of an oil and gas field. The calculations of the cost estimates for future environmental removals and recoveries are complex and involve significant uncertainties (as set out in note 4.6).

The estimates of decommissioning costs are reviewed annually based on current information on expected costs and recovery plans.

When the revision of the estimates results in an increase in the provision for decommissioning costs, there is a corresponding increase in assets. Otherwise, if a decrease in the liability exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, the excess shall be recognized immediately in profit or loss, within other income and expenses.

The following references detail the nature of the operations that make up the balances of other assets and liabilities:

a) Amounts deposited for payment of obligations related to the finance agreement with China Development Bank, as well as margin in guarantee for futures and over-the-counter derivatives. In addition, there are amounts in investment funds from escrow accounts related to divestment of Transportadora Associada de Gás S.A. (TAG) and in Nova Transportadora do Sudeste S.A. (NTS).

b) Fair value of open positions and transactions closed but not yet settled.

c) Cash and amounts receivable from partners in E&P consortia operated by Petrobras.

d) Provisions for contractual indemnities and financial reimbursements assumed by Petrobras to be made to the acquirer, referring to abandonment costs of divested assets. The settlement of these provisions follows decommissioning schedules, with payments beginning between two and three months after the date expected for the execution of operations, according to the contractual terms for reimbursement of abandonment of the respective oil fields.

e) Retained amounts from obligations with suppliers to guarantee the execution of the contract, accounted for when the obligations with suppliers are due. Contractual retentions will be paid to suppliers at the end of the contract, upon issuance of the contract termination term.

f) Amounts related to the advances or cash receipt from third parties, related to the sale of products or services.

g) Accrued amounts for environmental compensation assumed by the Company in the course of its operations and research projects.

h) Non-current portion of other taxes (see note 18).

i) Dividends made available to shareholders and not paid due to the existence of pending registration issues for which the shareholders are responsible with the custodian bank for the shares and with Petrobras, according to note 32.

j) Obligations arising from the acquisition of equity interests in Araucária Nitrogenados, which will be settled by the end of 2030.

**<u>Accounting policy for other assets and liabilities</u>**

The accounting recognition of obligations arising from divestment is at present value, using a risk-free discount rate, adjusted to reflect the Company's credit risk, being the best estimate of the disbursement required to settle the present obligation on the statement of financial position date. The obligations are subject to significant changes as activity execution schedules are updated and detailed by buyers.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Additions to assets under construction in 2025 are mainly due to investments in the production development in the Santos basin (mainly in the Búzios field), as well as in the Espírito Santo and Campos basins. As for additions to right-of-use assets, they are related to the chartering of platforms, notably FPSO Almirante Tamandaré (in the Búzios field), FPSO Alexandre de Gusmão (in the Mero field), drilling rigs for E&P operations, and the contract extension of FPSO Cidade Angra dos Reis (in the Tupi field), with the respective effect on lease liability (note 31).

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**<u>Accounting policy for property, plant and equipment</u>**

Property, plant and equipment are measured at the cost of acquisition or construction, including all costs necessary to bring the asset to working condition for its intended use and the estimated cost of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site, reduced by accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

A condition for continuing to operate certain items of property, plant and equipment, such as industrial plants, offshore plants and vessels is the performance of regular major inspections and maintenance. Those expenditures are capitalized if a maintenance campaign is expected to occur, at least, 12 months later. Otherwise, they are expensed when incurred. The capitalized costs are depreciated over the period through the next major maintenance date.

Spare parts are capitalized when they are expected to be used during more than one period and can only be used in connection with an item of property, plant and equipment, and are depreciated over the useful life of the item of property, plant and equipment to which they relate.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the costs of these assets.

General borrowing costs are capitalized based on the Company's weighted average cost of borrowings outstanding applied over the balance of assets under construction.

In general, the Company suspends capitalization of borrowing to the extent investments in a qualifying asset hibernates during a period greater than one year or whenever the asset is prepared for its intended use.

Assets directly associated to the production of oil and gas in a contracted area whose useful lives are not less than the life of the field (reserve exhaustion time), including rights and concessions such as signature bonus, are depleted by the unit-of-production method.

The unit-of-production method of depreciation (amortization) is computed based on the monthly production volume over the proved developed oil and gas reserves, except for signature bonuses for which unit of production method takes into account the monthly production over the total proved oil and gas reserves on a field-by-field basis.

Assets related to oil and gas production with useful lives shorter than the life of the field; floating platforms and other assets unrelated to oil and gas production are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, which are reviewed annually. Note 23.2 provides further information on the estimated useful life by class of assets. Lands are not depreciated.

Right-of-use assets are presented as property, plant and equipment and, according to the useful lives of their respective underlying assets and the characteristics of lease agreements (term, asset transfer or exercise of call option), are depreciated using the straight-line method based on contractual terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.4. Oil and Gas fields operated by Petrobras returned to ANP

In 2025, Petrobras did not return any fields to the ANP (National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels). In 2024, Petrobras decided to return the Cachalote field to the ANP, which had suffered a total impairment loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.5. Capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization

The capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization was the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings that were outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the capitalization rate was 7.21% p.a. (7.19% p.a. for the year ended December 31, 2024).

**5th Permanent Concession Offering Cycle**

On June 17, 2025, Petrobras acquired the rights for exploration and production of oil and natural gas in 10 blocks in the Foz do Amazonas basin and 3 blocks in the Pelotas basin, during the 5th Permanent Concession Offering Cycle conducted by ANP, with a signature bonus payment of R$139 in 2025. For more information about the contracts signed through partnerships, see note 27.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.2. Exploration rights returned to the ANP

In 2025, the return of 2 exploration blocks was approved: ES-M-596 (in the Espírito Santo basin) and C-M-753 (in the Campos basin), triggering a R$201 write-off relating to these assets. In 2024, the return of 5 exploratory blocks was approved, resulting in the write-off of the respective assets. These blocks are: ES-M-598 and ES-M-673 (in the Espírito Santo basin); PAR-T-175 (in the Paraná basin), totaling R$109; as well as blocks C-M-657 and C-M-709, located in the Campos Basin, as stated in note 25.

For more information see note 26 regarding exploration and evaluation of oil and gas reserves.

**<u>Accounting policy for intangible assets</u>**

Intangible assets are measured at the acquisition cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Internally-generated intangible assets are not capitalized and are expensed as incurred, except for development costs that meet the recognition criteria related to the completion and use of assets, probable future economic benefits, and others.

When the technical and commercial feasibility of oil and gas production is demonstrated for the first field in an area, the value of the signature bonus is reclassified to property, plant and equipment at their full value. While they are registered in intangible assets, they are not amortized. Other intangible assets with defined useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

If, when defining the technical and commercial feasibility of the first field of a block, there are exploratory activities being carried out in different locations in the block, so that oil and gas volumes can be estimated for other possible reservoirs in the area, then the value of the signature bonus is partially reclassified to PP&E, based on the ratio between the volume of oil and gas expected (oil in place - VOIP) of a specific reservoir and the total volume of oil and gas expected for all possible reservoirs in the area.

If exploratory activities in the remaining areas do not result in technical and commercial viability, the corresponding value of the signature bonus is not written off, but transferred to PP&E and added to the value of the signature bonus related to the location that was previously assessed as technically and commercially viable.

Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are tested annually for impairment. Their useful lives are reviewed annually.

(3) The recoverable and book values of the table considers, by nature, the losses and reversals calculated individually for each CGU. Thus, there are cases in which reversals of impairment are limited to the amount of losses previously recorded, making the column "(Impairment) reversal" not representing the comparison between the columns "Carrying Amount" and "Recoverable Amount".

In assessing the recoverability of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, tested individually or grouped in cash-generating units - CGU, the company considered the following projections:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Useful life based on the expected use of the assets or set of assets that make up the CGU, considering
the company's maintenance policy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Assumptions and budgets approved by Management for the period corresponding to the expected life cycle,
due to the characteristics of the businesses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Discount rates derived from the Company's post-tax weighted average cost of capital (WACC), adjusted
by specific risk-premiums in case of projects postponed for an extended period, or by specific country-risks, in case of assets abroad.
The use of post-tax discount rates in determining value in use does not result in different recoverable amounts if pre-tax discount rates
had been used.

The estimates of the key assumptions in the cash flow projections to determine the value in use of the CGUs in 2025 were:

In 2025, the main changes in the CGUs (in the E&P segment) were:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· reintegration of the second refining unit of RNEST
into the CGU Set of refining and logistics assets, due to the signing of the main contracts for the construction of the delayed coking
plant and diesel hydrotreating plants for their commissioning;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· return of the fertilizer plants Fafen BA and Fafen
SE to the Company, as a result of the termination of the lease agreement with the former lessee, in May 2025 and the resumption of activities
in September 2025. In the new business model, these plants become operationally and managerially interdependent, with unified cash generation,
resulting in the creation of the CGU Fafens;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· entry of the Boaventura Energy Complex – Utilities
and the Boaventura Energy Complex – Refining into the CGU Set of refining and logistics assets, as a result of the signing of service
contracts for the execution of works aimed at their completion;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· extinction of CGUs of Lamarão, Mandacaru,
and Raia Pintada fields, due to their integration to the Massapê, Araçás, and Raia Manta fields, respectively;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· exclusion of the Colpa Caranda field from the CGU
PEB-E&P due to the approval of its definitive return.

Additional information on key assumptions for impairment testing and on CGU definitions is presented in note 4.2.2. The key assumptions and the definitions of CGU involve judgment and assessment by Management based on its business and management model.

Information on the main impairment losses of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets is presented as follows:

**a1) Producing properties in Brazil – 2025**

The assessments of assets linked to oil and gas production fields in Brazil resulted in net losses amounting to R$8,786, primarily related to the CGUs of: Marlim Sul field (R$3,957), Roncador field (R$2,950), Barracuda and Caratinga cluster (R$446) and mainly due to the decreased projected cash flows of these fields due to the postponement of the start of production of these projects and to the production stoppage of platforms, as well as to the depreciation of the closing exchange rate over cash flows in US dollars.

**a2) Producing properties in Brazil – 2024** 

The assessments of assets linked to oil and gas production fields in Brazil resulted in net losses of R$6,882, mainly related to: (i) the CGUs of Roncador (R$2,230) and the Barracuda and Caratinga (R$1,242), mainly due to the review of abandonment expenses, as well as the reduction in platform efficiency and well performance forecasts for the Barracuda and Caratinga Cluster, negatively impacting the fields' production curves; and (ii) Uruguá/Tambaú (R$3,032), due to the cancellation of the divestment process and the lack of production curves associated with the Business Plan 2025-2029.

**b1) Boaventura Energy Complex - 2025**

The Company assessed the recoverability of the refining and utility assets of the Boaventura Energy Complex upon the approval of the project in August 2025 and the signing of the main contracts required for the completion and integration of these assets with the Duque de Caxias Refinery (Reduc) and, consequently, with Petrobras' set of refining and logistics assets.

In the recoverability assessment of these assets, a R$1,760 impairment reversal was recognized in the CGUs Boaventura Energy Complex – Refining and Utilities, mainly considering the fair value less costs of disposal of the refining assets, categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, estimated using the present value method, and adopting a discount rate of 8.1%. From that point forward, the refining and utility assets of the Boaventura Energy Complex were included in the CGU set of refining and logistics and will have their recoverable amounts tested as a group.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**c1) Second refining unit of RNEST – 2024**

Losses due to depreciation in the amount of R$2,564, due to the increase in investment estimates and operating expenses, associated to the Business Plan 2025-2029.

**d1) Oil and gas exploratory assets -2025**

The assessments conducted on exploratory assets indicated a reduction in the recoverable values of the exploratory blocks C-M-753 and C-M-789, located in the Campos basin and, consequently, the recognition of losses amounting to R$1,198, given the Company decided not to develop these projects.

**d2) Oil and gas exploratory assets -2024**

The assessments conducted on exploratory assets indicated a reduction in the recoverable values of the exploratory blocks C-M-657 and C-M-709, located in the Campos Basin, and, consequently, the recognition of losses amounting to R$1,241. Management approved the full and voluntary relinquishment of these blocks to ANP in October 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**25.1.1.** **Sensitivity analysis for impairment testing** 

Impairment testing involves uncertainties related, among other factors, to the average Brent price and the discount rates used to calculate value in use.

To assess the sensitivity of the calculation of the recoverable amount of the assets in the E&P segment in Brazil, the following scenarios of impairment losses or reversals were considered:

a) a 10% variation in Brent prices used to calculate the recoverable amount, impacting the projection of revenue, production taxes and income taxes related to these items; and

b) a 1 percentage point change in the discount rate.

In both scenarios, all other variables, assumptions and data used to calculate the recoverable amount of assets were kept unchanged, with the following results:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Item** | **Scenario** | **Impairment effect** | **Amount** |
| Brent price | 10% increase | Reversal | 10051 |
|  | 10% decrease | Additional loss | (14135) |
| Discount rate | 1 p.p. decrease | Reversal | 3035 |
|  | 1 p.p. increase | Additional loss | (3247) |

---

In addition, the following table presents a sensitivity analysis of the CGUs whose estimated recoverable amounts are close to their carrying amounts and, therefore, would be closer to the recognition of impairment losses in the future as a result of significant changes in assumptions.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;CGU Marlim Leste and Tartaruga Verde cluster | E&P | 24456 | 22963 | (1493) |

---

The simulations used above are not considered by the Company to be the best estimates for determining the expected effects on the recoverable amount and consequent impairment loss, nor the estimated effects on revenues or net income.

**<u>Accounting policy for impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets</u>**

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are assessed for impairment at the smallest identifiable group that generates largely independent cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (CGU). Note 4.2.2 presents detailed information about the Company's CGUs.

Assets related to development and production of oil and gas assets (fields or clusters) that have indefinite useful lives, such as goodwill, are tested for impairment at least annually, irrespective of whether there is any indication of impairment.

Considering the existing synergies between the Company's assets and businesses, as well as the expectation of the use of its assets for their remaining useful lives, value in use is generally used by the Company for impairment testing purposes. When specifically indicated, the Company assesses differences between its assumptions and assumptions that would be used by market participants in the determination of the fair value of an asset or CGU.

Reversal of previously recognized impairment losses may occur for assets other than goodwill.

In 2025, the Company recognized impairment losses on assets classified as held for sale, resulting from their measurement at the fair value less costs to sell, mainly arising from Cherne cluster, due to the accident on platform PCH-1, which occurred in the second quarter of 2025, resulting in the recognition of a R$319 impairment loss.

In 2024, the Company recognized impairment losses on assets held for sale arising from the assessment at the fair value of assets, net of disposal expenses, mainly arising from Pescada group of fields, due to decommissioning cost review.

The accounting practice applied to assets and liabilities classified as held for sale is described in note 29.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;25.3. Investments in associates and joint ventures (including goodwill)

In assessing the recoverability of investments in associates and joint ventures, including goodwill, the value-in-use method was used, based on projections that considered: (i) a projection horizon of 5 to 12 years, with perpetuity and no growth; (ii) assumptions and budgets approved by the company's management; and (iii) a post-tax discount rate, derived from WACC or the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM), according to the application methodology specified for each case. The effect of these assessments on the results of the fiscal year is disclosed in the beginning of note 25.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**<u>Accounting policy for impairment of associates and joint ventures</u>**

Investments in associates and joint ventures are tested individually for impairment. When performing impairment testing of an equity-accounted investment, goodwill, if it exists, is also considered part of the carrying amount to be compared to the recoverable amount.

Except when specifically indicated, value in use is generally used by the Company for impairment testing purposes in proportion to the Company's interests in the present value of future cash flow projections via dividends and other distributions.

26. Exploration and evaluation of oil and gas reserves

The exploration and evaluation activities include the search for oil and gas reserves from the date of obtaining the legal rights to explore a specific area to the moment in which technical and commercial feasibility to produce oil and gas are demonstrated.

Changes in the balances of capitalized costs directly associated with exploratory wells pending determination of proved reserves and the balance of amounts paid for obtaining rights and concessions for exploration of oil and natural gas (capitalized acquisition costs) are set out in the following table:

The additions occurred in Property, Plant and Equipment in 2025 are mainly related to well drilling activities associated with the exploratory areas of ARAM, Búzios, and BM-S-24 in the Santos basin, Norte de Brava, Albacora, Sudoeste de Tartaruga Verde and Alto de Cabo Frio Central in the Campos basin, and FZA-M-59 in Foz do Amazonas basin.

In 2025, the recognition of losses in property, plant and equipment (R$1,039) mainly refers to the drilling of wells by PIBBV in Colombia and São Tomé and Príncipe, with the assessment that the respective projects will not be developed.

In Intangible Assets, a R$946 loss was recognized due to the assessment of economic unfeasibility of the exploratory blocks C-M-753 and C-M-789, located in the Campos basin, with the consequent reduction of their recoverable amounts. In 2024, a loss was recognized referring to the exploratory blocks C-M-657 and C-M-709, located in the Campos basin, which more details in note 25.

Exploration costs recognized in the statement of income and cash used in oil and gas exploration and evaluation activities are set out in the following table:

**<u>Accounting policy for exploration and evaluation of oil and gas reserves</u>**

The costs incurred in connection with the exploration, appraisal and development of crude oil and natural gas production are accounted for using the successful efforts method of accounting, as set out below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· geological and geophysical costs related to exploration
and appraisal activities incurred until economic and technical feasibility are demonstrated are immediately recognized as an expense;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· amounts paid for obtaining concessions for exploration
of crude oil and natural gas (capitalized acquisition costs) are initially capitalized as intangible assets and are transferred to property,
plant and equipment once the technical and commercial feasibility are demonstrated. More information on intangible assets accounting policy,
see note 24;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· costs directly attributable to exploratory wells,
including their equipment, installations and other costs necessary to identify the technical and commercial feasibility, pending determination
of proved reserves, are capitalized within property, plant and equipment. In some cases, exploratory wells have discovered oil and gas
reserves, but at the moment the well drilling is completed they are not yet able to be classified as proved. In such cases, the expenses
continue to be capitalized if the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and progress
on assessing the reserves and the technical and commercial feasibility of the project is under way (for more information see note 26.1);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· an internal commission of technical executives of
the Company reviews monthly these conditions for each well, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, existing economic conditions,
operating methods and government regulations (for more information see note 4.1);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· costs related to exploratory wells drilled in areas
of unproved reserves are charged to expense when determined to be dry or uneconomic by the aforementioned internal commission; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· costs related to the construction, installation and
completion of infrastructure facilities, such as drilling of development wells, construction of platforms and natural gas processing units,
construction of equipment and facilities for the extraction, handling, storing, processing or treating crude oil and natural gas, pipelines,

**<u>Accounting policy for joint operations</u>**

The E&P consortia are classified as joint operations, where the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to these consortia are accounted for in the financial statements individually, observing the applicable specific accounting policies and reflecting the portion of the contractual rights and obligations that the Company has.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.1. Production Individualization Agreements (AIPs)

Petrobras has AIPs signed in Brazil with partner companies in E&P consortia which provides for the equalization of expenses and production volumes, mainly related to the following fields: Agulhinha, Berbigão, Budião Noroeste, Budião Sudeste, the pre-salt layer of Jubarte, Sapinhoá, Sururu and Tupi.

The table below presents changes in the estimate of reimbursements relating to the execution of the AIPs submitted for the approval of the ANP:

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other income and expenses | 1501 | 78 |
| **Closing balance** | **2248** | **3575** |

---

The change in the year reflects the best available estimate of the assumptions used in the calculation base and the sharing of assets in areas to be equalized.

**Agreements closed in 2025**

**a) Jubarte pre-salt layer shared reservoir**

In May 2025, the Company submitted for approval of ANP the AIP of the Jubarte pre-salt layer shared reservoir in the Campos basin, comprising Jubarte field, uncontracted areas of the Brazilian Federal Government and Argonauta field. In July 2025, ANP approved this AIP, effective as of August 1, 2025. Following this agreement, the interests of each area in the Jubarte shared reservoir become:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Jubarte field (Petrobras) - 97.25%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· uncontracted areas (represented by PPSA) - 1.89%;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Argonauta field (Shell, ONGC and Brava) - 0.86%.

This agreement resulted in a R$1,802 write-off on asset and a R$4,169 expense recognized in other operating income (expenses).

In October 2025, this agreement was signed and Petrobras paid R$1,540 to PPSA.

The equalization related to Petrobras and the partners of Argonauta field is still ongoing.

**b) Tupi shared reservoir**

On November 12, 2025, ANP approved an amendment to the AIP of Tupi shared reservoir, in the Santos basin, effective as of December 1, 2025, comprising Tupi field, Sul de Tupi field and uncontracted areas.

Following this amendment, the interest of Petrobras in the Tupi shared reservoir increased from 67.216% to 67.457%. The interests of each area in the Tupi shared reservoir become:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Petrobras
– 67.457%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Shell
– 22.65%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Petrogal
– 9.06%;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncontracted
areas (represented by PPSA) – 0.833%

This redermination resulted in a R$710 addition to property, plant and equipment and a R$2,930 income recognized in other operating income (expenses). The equalization process between Petrobras, partners and PPSA is currently under negotiation.

**<u>Accounting policy for production individualization agreements</u>**

An individualization agreement occurs when a reservoir extends across two or more license or contract areas. In this case, partners pool their individual interests in return for an interest in the overall unit (shared reservoir) and determine their new share in the single producing unit.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Events that occurred prior to the individualization agreement may lead to the need for compensation between the partners. The compensation will be the difference between the expenses actually incurred by each party up to the reference date and those that should have been incurred by each party if the established participations in the shared reservoir by the AIP were already in effect during that period.

At the signing of the AIP, an amount to be reimbursed to the Company will be recognized as an asset only when there is a contractual right to reimbursement or when the reimbursement is practically certain. An amount to be reimbursed by the Company will be recognized as a liability when it derives from a contractual obligation or, when the outflow of funds is deemed probable and the amount can be reliable estimated. The provision will be offset by an increase or decrease in PP&E, revenues and/or expenses, according to the nature of the events to be reimbursed.

**<u>Accounting policy for investments</u>**

**Basis of consolidation**

The consolidated financial statements include information from Petrobras and its subsidiaries, joint ventures, and consolidated structured entities.

Transactions and balances between group entities, including unrealized profits arising from these transactions, are eliminated in the consolidation process.

**Investments in other companies**

In individual financial statements, investments in subsidiaries, associates, jointly controlled entities, and non-profit associations are valued using the equity method. In joint operations, only those constituted through a special purpose vehicle with its own legal personality are valued using the equity method. For other joint operations, the company recognizes its assets and liabilities, as well as its respective revenues and expenses.

In consolidated financial statements, investments in associates and jointly controlled entities are recognized using the equity method.

**Business combination**

A business combination is a transaction or other event whereby an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses, regardless of the legal form of the transaction. The acquisition method is applied to transactions in which control is obtained. Business combinations of entities under common control are accounted for at cost. Under the acquisition method, identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value, with limited exceptions.

29. Disposal of assets and other transactions

The major classes of assets and related liabilities classified as held for sale are shown in the following table:

(1) In 2025, the reduction is related to the sale of the Cherne and Bagre fields. For more information, see note 29.1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**29.1.** **Closed sales in the year ended December 31, 2025** 

In August 2025, Petrobras closed the sale of the Company's entire interest in Cherne and Bagre producing fields, located in the shallow waters of the Campos Basin, to Perenco Petróleo and Gás ("Perenco"). The transaction was closed with the payment of R$50 (US$9 million), in addition to R$5 (US$1 million) paid to Petrobras in April 2024, at the signing of the transaction. A R$11 gain was recognized in other income and expenses (note 11).

These fields had their production interrupted in March 2020, and their respective production facilities have been idled since then. This sale agreement provided for compensation adjustments to be paid by Petrobras to Perenco to maintain the operating conditions of these assets, intended to make Perenco resume production of these fields as an alternative to their decommissioning, which is no longer an obligation of Petrobras.

**<u>Accounting Policy for assets and liabilities held for sale</u>**

Assets and liabilities associated with these assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered mainly through a sale transaction.

The condition for classification as held for sale is met only when the sale is approved by the Company's Board of Directors and the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition and there is the expectation that the sale will occur within 12 months after its classification as held for sale. However, an extended period required to complete a sale does not preclude an asset (or disposal group) from being classified as held for sale if the delay is caused by events or circumstances beyond the Company's control and there is sufficient evidence that the Company remains committed to its plan to sell the assets (or disposal groups).

Assets and liabilities associated with these assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less disposal expenses.

For non-current assets classified as held for sale, provisions for decommissioning costs related to these assets are also disclosed. Any commitments for decommissioning assumed by the Company as a result of a sale are recognized after the closing of the transaction, in accordance with the contractual terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**29.2.** **Contingent assets from disposed investments and other transactions** 

Some disposed assets and other agreements provide for receipts subject to contractual clauses, especially related to the Brent variation in transactions related to E&P assets.

The table below shows, for each transaction, the closing date, the transaction amount, the asset recognized as a counterpart to other operating income, and the amount of contingent assets at the statement of financial position date:

**Sépia and Atapu**

In 2022, Petrobras signed Production Individualization Agreements (AIPs) for Atapu and Sépia fields, according to the results of the Second Bidding Round for the Surplus Volume of the Transfer of Rights Agreement. Petrobras explores the Sépia field in a consortium with TotalEnergies (28% interest), Petronas Petróleo Brasil Ltda. (21% interest) and QP Brasil Ltda. (21% interest), while the Atapu field is explored in a consortium with Shell Brasil Petróleo Ltda (25% interest) and TotalEnergies EP Brasil Ltda. (22.5% interest).

In addition to the amounts previously received by Petrobras resulting from the signing of the AIPs, supplementary compensations (earnouts) are expected between 2022 and 2032, during periods when the price of Brent crude oil exceeds an annual average of US$40/bbl, limited to US$70/bbl, according to Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy Ordinance No. 08/2021.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**29.3.** **Other operations** 

On November 27, 2025, the transfer of PB-LOG to Transpetro was approved via the incorporation of shares, resulting in a capital increase of Transpetro in the amount of R$353, both companies being wholly owned subsidiaries of Petrobras.

**30.6**. **Covenants and Collateral** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**30.6.1.** **Covenants** 

The company has obligations related to debt covenants, notably: (i) presentation of financial statements within 90 days for interim periods, without review by independent auditors, and within 120 days for the end of the fiscal year; (ii) Negative Pledge/Permitted Liens clause, where Petrobras and its material subsidiaries undertake not to create encumbrances on their assets to secure debts beyond what is permitted; (iii) clauses for compliance with laws, rules and regulations applicable to the conduct of their business, including (but not limited to) environmental laws; (iv) clauses in financing agreements that require both the borrower and the guarantor to conduct their business in compliance with anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws and to establish and maintain policies necessary for such compliance; (v) clauses in financing agreements that restrict relationships with entities or even countries sanctioned primarily by the United States, including, but not limited to, the Office of Foreign Assets Control – OFAC, the Department of State and the Department of Commerce, the European Union and the United Nations.

As of December 31, 2025, there have been no defaults, breaches of covenants, or changes to clauses that would result in changes to the payment terms of loan and financing agreements.

If the company fails to meet any of the obligations mentioned above, or is unable to remedy, or continues to fail to meet the obligations within the cure period which ranges from 30 to 60 days (depending on the contract) after receiving written notice from the creditor(s) specifying such default or breach and demanding that it be remedied and declaring that such notice is a "Notice of Default", this may be declared a Default Event and, occasionally, the debt related to that contract will be considered due and payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**30.6.2.** **Collateral** 

Financial institutions normally do not require guarantees for loans and financing granted to Petrobras. However, there is financing granted through specific instruments, which have real guarantees. Such contracts represent 7.4% of total financing, with emphasis on the contract obtained from the China Development Bank (CDB), according to note 34.6.

Loans obtained by structured entities are guaranteed by the projects themselves, as well as by pledges of credit rights.

Financing from the capital market, which corresponds to securities issued by the company, does not have real guarantees.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

**<u>Accounting policy for loans and finance debt</u>**

Loans and finance debt are initially recognized at fair value less transaction costs that are directly attributable to its issue and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

When the contractual cash flows of a financial liability measured at amortized cost are renegotiated or modified and this change is not substantial, its gross carrying amount will reflect the discounted present value of its cash flows under new terms using the original effective interest rate. The difference between the book value immediately prior to such modification and the new gross carrying amount is recognized as gain or loss in the statement of income. When such modification is substantial, the original liability is extinguished and a new liability is recognized, impacting the statement of income of the period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**31.** **Lease liability** 

The Company is the lessee in agreements primarily including oil and gas producing units, drilling rigs and other exploration and production equipment, vessels and support vessels, helicopters, land and buildings. Changes in the balance of lease liabilities are presented below:

As of December 31, 2025, the nominal value of lease agreements not yet commenced totals R$112,009 (R$402,710 as of December 31, 2024). The reduction was mainly due to contract terminations related to vessel contracts, in addition to the exchange rate effect during the period.

The sensitivity analysis of financial instruments subject to exchange variation is presented in note 33.3.

**<u>Accounting policy for lease liabilities</u>**

Lease liabilities, including those whose underlying assets are of low value, are measured at the present value of lease payments, which includes recoverable taxes, non-cancellable periods and options to extend a lease when they are reasonably certain.

These payments are discounted at the Company's nominal incremental rate on loans, as the interest rates implicit in lease agreements with third parties usually cannot be readily determined.

Lease remeasurements reflect changes arising from contractual rates or indexes, as well as lease terms due to new expectations of lease extensions or terminations.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Unwinding of discount on the lease liability is classified as finance expense, while payments reduce their carrying amount. According to the Company's foreign exchange risk management, foreign exchange variations on lease liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars are designated as instruments to protect cash flow hedge relationships from highly probable future exports (see note 33.3.1).

In the E&P segment, some activities are conducted by joint operations with partner companies where the Company is the operator. In cases where all parties to the joint operation are primarily responsible for the lease payments, the Company recognizes the lease liability in proportion to its share. When using underlying assets arising from a specific contract in which the Company is solely responsible for the lease payments, the lease liabilities remain fully recognized and the partners are charged in proportion to their interests.

Payments associated with short-term leases (term of 12 months or less) are recognized as an expense over the term of the lease.

(1) In 2025, no allocation occurred because the reserve balance reached the legal limit.

(2) In 2025, no allocation occurred because the reserve balance reached the statutory limit.

**Legal reserve**

It represents the accumulated balance of 5% of the net income for each year, calculated pursuant to article 193 of the Brazilian Corporation Law, limited to 20% of the share capital. The reserve may only be used to offset losses or increase capital.

**Statutory reserves** 

In accordance with the Company's Bylaws, the constitution of the statutory reserves below must be considered in the proposal for distribution of net income, observing the following order of priority:

· Reserve for research and development (R&D): constituted
with the appropriation of net income by applying 0.5% of the year-end share capital, with the accumulated balance not exceeding 5% of
the share capital, aiming at funding technological R&D programs.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

· Capital remuneration reserve: may be constituted
through the appropriation of up to 70% of the adjusted net income for the year, subject to article 202 of the Brazilian Corporation Law
and to the Shareholders Remuneration Policy, limited to the share capital, with the purpose of ensuring resources for the payment of dividends,
interest on capital or other form of shareholder remuneration provided for by law, its anticipations, shares repurchases authorized by
law, absorption of losses and, as a remaining purpose, incorporation into the share capital.

**Tax incentives reserve** 

Government grants are recognized in the statement of income and are appropriated from retained earnings to the tax incentive reserve pursuant to article 195-A of Brazilian Corporation Law. This reserve may only be used to offset losses or increase share capital.

As of December 31, 2025, this reserve referring to a subsidy incentive for investments, granted by the Superintendencies for Development of the Northeast Region of Brazil (SUDENE) and of the Amazon (SUDAM).

**Profit retention reserve**

It includes funds intended for capital expenditures, primarily in oil and gas exploration and development activities, as per the capital budget of the Company, pursuant to article 196 of the Brazilian Corporation Law.

**32.5.2. Distributions to shareholders** 

Distributions to shareholders are made by means of dividends, interest capital and share repurchases based on the limits defined in the Brazilian Corporation Law, in the Company's bylaws and in the shareholders remuneration policy.

Pursuant to Brazilian Corporation Law, the Company's shareholders are entitled to receive minimum mandatory dividends (and/or interest on capital) of 25% of the adjusted net income for the year in proportion to the number of common and preferred shares held by them.

To the extent the Company proposes dividend distributions, preferred shares have priority in dividend distribution, which is based on the highest of 3% of the preferred shares' net book value or 5% of the preferred share capital. Preferred shares participate under the same terms as common shares in capital increases resulting from the capitalization of profit reserves or retained earnings. However, this priority does not necessarily grant dividend distributions to the preferred shareholders in the event of loss for a year.

Preferred shares participate in the distribution of dividends, on a non-cumulative basis, on equal terms with common shares when the amount to be distributed exceeds the minimum percentage established in the Company's bylaws for preferred shares.

**a)** **Shareholders Remuneration Policy** 

The Company's policy on distributions to shareholders, approved by the Company's Board of Directors on July 28, 2023, defines the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· minimum distribution of US$4 billion for fiscal
years when the average Brent price exceeds US$40 per barrel, which shall be distributed regardless of its level of indebtedness, provided
that the parameters set forth in the policy are observed. This distribution will be equal to both common and preferred shares, once it
exceeds the minimum value for preferred shares provided for in the Company's bylaws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· in the event of gross debt equal to or less than
the maximum debt level defined in the strategic plan (US$75 billion in the 2026-2030 Business Plan), in addition to the existence of
net income attributable to shareholders of Petrobras, to be verified at the end of the year, the Company shall distribute to its shareholders
45% of the difference between consolidated net cash provided by operating activities and consolidated cash used in the acquisition of
PP&E and intangible assets and on the acquisition of equity interests, calculated in Brazilian reais, provided that the result of
this calculation exceeds US$4 billion and does not compromise the financial sustainability of the Company. This calculation will
be applied on a quarterly basis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· any amounts related to share repurchases, as disclosed
in the consolidated statement of cash flows, are be deducted from the amount resulting of the formula applied each quarter;

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the Company may, in exceptional cases, distribute
extraordinary remuneration to its shareholders, higher than the minimum mandatory dividends or than the amount calculated according to
this policy, provided that the financial sustainability of the Company is preserved;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the distribution of remuneration to shareholders
shall be made on a quarterly basis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the Company may exceptionally distribute dividends
even if there is no net income for the year, in accordance with the rules provided for the Brazilian Corporation Law and the criteria
defined in this policy.

Petrobras seeks, through its shareholders remuneration policy, to ensure short, medium and long-term financial sustainability, providing predictability to the dividend payments to shareholders. Consequently, the payment of shareholder remuneration should not compromise the company's short, medium, and long-term financial sustainability.

**b)** **Proposed remuneration to the shareholders of Petrobras**

For 2025, the proposed remuneration to the shareholders of Petrobras amounts to R$41,236, was based on the shareholders remuneration policy of 45% of the free cash flow (calculated in Brazilian Reais), as set bellow:

The interest on capital anticipated for the 2025 fiscal year resulted in a tax credit for income tax and social contribution of R$7,531. Withholding income tax (IRRF) of 15% was applied to the interest on capital, except for immune and exempt shareholders, as established in current legislation.

The proposed dividend for the 2025 fiscal year, to be submitted for approval at the 2026 Annual General Meeting, totals R$41,236 (R$3.19936420 per preferred and common share outstanding). This includes the mandatory minimum dividend of R$27,328, equivalent to 25% of adjusted net income, plus additional dividends of R$13,908 from the remaining portion of accumulated income for the fiscal year. This proposal exceeds the priority of preferred shares and is consistent with the shareholder remuneration policy.

On November 27, 2025, the Law No. 15,270/2025 was published, establishing the withholding income tax at a 10% rate on dividends distributed to individuals domiciled in Brazil, when such dividends exceed R$50 thousand per month. The 10% rate also applies to dividends distributed abroad to individuals or legal entities, regardless of the amount, except in specific situations provided for by law. In addition, Supplementary Law No. 224/2025 increased the withholding income tax rate applicable to interest on capital from 15% to 17.5%. Both laws will be effective as of January 1, 2026, and the Company is adopting the necessary measures to ensure compliance with this legislation.

On April 16, 2025, the Annual General Meeting approved the allocation of the 2024 fiscal year results, amounting to R$73,906 (R$5.73413520 per preferred and common share outstanding), which included the mandatory minimum dividend of R$8,954, equivalent to 25% of the adjusted net income, in addition to additional dividends of R$27,178 from the remaining portion of accumulated income for the year and R$37,774 from capital remuneration and retained earnings reserves.

**e)** **Dividends payable**

As of December 31, 2025, dividends payable within current liabilities, amounting to R$11,415, net of withholding income taxes over interest on capital of R$742, relate to the anticipation of dividend approved by the Board of Directors on November 6, 2025, related to the third quarter of 2025. The first installment of these dividends was paid on February 20, 2026 and the second installment will be paid on March 20, 2026.

**<u>Accounting policy on distributions to shareholders</u>**

Interest on capital is a deductible expense, since it is part of the dividend for the year, as provided for in the Company's bylaws, and accounted for in the statement of income, as required by tax legislation, resulting in a tax credit for income taxes recognized in the statement of income of the year.

The dividends portion provided for in the bylaws or that represents the minimum mandatory dividends is recognized as a liability within the statement of financial position. Any excess must be maintained in shareholders' equity, as additional dividends proposed, until its approval on the Annual General Shareholders Meeting.

Dividends not claimed by Petrobras' shareholders are transferred from dividends payable to other current liabilities. After 3 years from the date these dividends are made available to shareholders, they are reclassified from other current liabilities to equity within retained earnings, in accordance with Petrobras' bylaws.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net income attributable to shareholders of Petrobras by the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period. The change in the weighted average number of outstanding shares is due to the Share repurchase program (preferred shares) which was closed on August 4, 2024, whose shares were cancelled in January 2025, as described in note 32.1.

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the net income attributable to shareholders of Petrobras and the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period taking into account the effects of all dilutive potential shares (equity instrument or contractual arrangements that are convertible into shares).

Basic and diluted earnings are identical as the Company has no potentially dilutive shares.

33. Financial risk management

Petrobras is exposed to a series of risks arising from its operations, such as the risk related to the prices of oil and oil products, exchange and interest rates, credit and liquidity risk. Corporate risk management is part of the company's commitment to act ethically and in compliance with the legal and regulatory requirements established in the countries where it operates.

For the management of market / financial risks, preferably structural actions are adopted, created as a result of an adequate management of the company's capital and indebtedness. Risks are managed considering governance and established controls, specialized units and monitoring in statutory committees under the guidance of the Executive Board and the Board of Directors. In the company, risks must be considered in all decisions and their management must be carried out in an integrated manner, taking advantage of the benefits of diversification.

In its corporate risk management process, Petrobras maintains derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposures to market risks on certain occasions and designates certain U.S. dollar obligations and highly probable future exports as hedge accounting relationships to protect against exchange rate variations.

The Company presents a sensitivity analysis for the period of one year, except for operations with commodity derivatives, for which a three-month period is applied, due to the short-term nature of these transactions.

The effects of derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting are set out as follows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**33.3.** **Market risks** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**33.3.1.** **Foreign exchange risk management** 

By managing its foreign exchange risk, the Company takes into account the cash flows derived from its operations as a whole. This concept is especially applicable to the risk relating to the exposure of the Brazilian Real against the U.S. dollar, in which future cash flows in U.S. dollar, as well as cash flows in Brazilian Real affected by the fluctuation between both currencies, such as cash flows derived from diesel and gasoline sales in the domestic market, are assessed in an integrated manner.

Accordingly, the financial risk management mainly involves structured actions encompassing the business of the Company.

Changes in the Real/U.S. dollar spot rate, as well as foreign exchange variation of the Real against other foreign currencies, may affect net income and the statement of financial position due to the exposures in foreign currencies, such as high probable future transactions, monetary items and firm commitments.

The Company seeks to mitigate the effect of potential variations in the Real/U.S. dollar spot rates mainly raising funds denominated in U.S. dollars, aiming at reducing the net exposure between obligations and receipts in this currency, thus representing a form of structural protection that takes into account criteria of liquidity and cost competitiveness.

Foreign exchange variation on future exports denominated in U.S. Dollar in a given period are efficiently hedged by the U.S. dollar debt portfolio taking into account changes in such portfolio over time. Cash flow hedge involving the Company's future exports are presented in note 33.4.1(a).

The foreign exchange risk management strategy may involve the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge certain liabilities, mitigating foreign exchange rate risk exposure, especially when the Company is exposed to a foreign currency in which no cash inflows are expected. The positions with exchange rate derivatives are presented in note 33.3.

In the short-term, the foreign exchange risk is managed by applying resources in cash or cash equivalent denominated in Brazilian Real, U.S. dollar or in another currency.

a) Cash Flow Hedge involving the Company's future exports

The Company uses hedge accounting for the risk arising from exchange rate variations of "highly probable future exports" (hedged item) by means of foreign exchange rate variations of proportions of certain obligations denominated in U.S. dollars (hedging instruments).

The carrying amounts, the fair value as of December 31, 2025, and a schedule of expected reclassifications to the statement of income of cumulative losses recognized in other comprehensive income (shareholders' equity) based on a US$1.00 / R$5.5024 exchange rate are set out below:

In the year ended on December 31, 2025, a foreign exchange gain of R$730 was recognized referring to the ineffectiveness in the exchange variation line (loss of R$1,154 in the same period in 2024).

Future exports designated as hedged in cash flow hedge relationships represent, on average, 73.2% of highly probable future exports.

A roll-forward schedule of cumulative foreign exchange variation recognized in shareholders' equity to be realized by future exports is set out below:

Additional hedging relationships may be revoked or additional reclassification adjustments from equity to the statement of income may occur as a result of changes in forecasted export prices and export volumes following future revisions of the Company's business plans. A sensitivity analysis considering a US$10/barrel decrease in Brent prices stress scenario, when compared to the Brent price projections in the Business Plan 2026-2030, would not indicate a reclassification from equity to the statement of income.

A schedule of expected reclassification of cumulative foreign exchange rate losses recognized in other comprehensive income to the statement of income as of December 31, 2025, is set out below:

**Accounting policy for hedge accounting**

At inception of the hedge relationship, the Company documents its objective and strategy, including identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the hedged risk and evaluation of hedge effectiveness requirements.

Considering the natural hedge and the risk management strategy, the Company designates hedging relationships to account for the effects of the existing hedge between a foreign exchange gain or loss from proportions of its long-term debt obligations (denominated in U.S. dollars) and foreign exchange gain or loss of its highly probable U.S. dollar denominated future exports revenues, so that gains or losses associated with the hedged transaction (the highly probable future exports) and the hedging instrument (debt obligations) are recognized in the statement of income in the same periods.

Foreign exchange gains and losses on proportions of debt obligations and lease liability (non-derivative financial instruments) have been designated as hedging instruments.

The highly probable future exports for each month are hedged by a proportion of the debt obligations with an equal US dollar nominal amount. Only a portion of the Company's forecast exports are considered highly probable.

The Company's future exports are exposed to the risk of variation in the Brazilian Real/U.S. dollar spot rate, which is offset by the converse exposure to the same type of risk with respect to its debt denominated in U.S. dollar.

The hedge relationships are assessed on a monthly basis and they may cease and may be re-designated in order to achieve the risk management strategy.

Foreign exchange gains and losses relating to the effective portion of such hedges are recognized in equity, within other comprehensive income and reclassified to the statement of income within finance income (expense) in the periods when the hedged item affects the statement of income.

Whenever a portion of future exports for a certain period, for which their foreign exchange gains and losses hedging relationship has been designated is no longer highly probable, the Company revokes the designation and the cumulative foreign exchange gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income remain separately in equity until the forecast exports occur.

If future exports for which foreign exchange gains and losses hedging relationship has been designated is no longer expected to occur, any related cumulative foreign exchange gains or losses that have been recognized in other comprehensive income from the date the hedging relationship was designated to the date the Company revoked the designation is immediately recycled from other comprehensive income to the statement of income.

In addition, when a financial instrument designated as a hedging instrument expires or settles, the Company may replace it with another financial instrument in a manner in which the hedge relationship continues to occur. Likewise, whenever a hedged transaction effectively occurs, its financial instrument previously designated as a hedging instrument may be designated for a new hedge relationship.

Gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are immediately recognized in finance income (expense). Ineffectiveness may occur as hedged items and hedge instruments have different maturity dates and due to discount rate used to determine their present value.

b) Derivative financial instruments not designated for hedge accounting

In 2019, Petrobras contracted a cross-currency swap aiming to protect against exposure arising from the 7<sup>th</sup> issuance of debentures, for IPCA x CDI operations, maturing in September 2029 and September 2034, and for CDI x U.S. Dollar operations, maturing in September 2029.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The methodology used to calculate the fair value of this swap operation consists of calculating the future value of the operations, using rates agreed in each contract and the projections of the interest rate curves, IPCA coupon and foreign exchange coupon, discounting to present value using the risk-free rate. Curves are obtained from Bloomberg based on forward contracts traded in stock exchanges.

The mark-to-market is adjusted to the credit risk of the financial institutions, which is not relevant in terms of financial volume, since the Company makes contracts with highly rated banks.

Changes in interest rate forward curves (CDI interest rate) may affect the Company's results, due to the market value of these swap contracts. In preparing a sensitivity analysis for these curves, a parallel shock was estimated based on the average maturity of these swap contracts, in the scope of the Company's Risk Management Policy, which resulted in a 537 basis point effect on the estimated interest rate. The effect of this sensitivity analysis, keeping all other variables constant, is shown in the following table:

|:---|:---|
| **Financial Instruments** | **Consolidated** <br> **Reasonably Possible scenario** |
| SWAP CDI x USD | (64) |

---

c) Sensitivity analysis for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments

The sensitivity analysis only covers the exchange rate variation and maintains all other variables constant. The probable scenario is referenced on external sources like Focus bulletin and Thomson Reuters, making use of the exchange rate forecast for the end of the following year, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· U.S. dollar x real - a 0.04% appreciation of the
real;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· euro x U.S. dollar - a 2.07% appreciation of the
euro;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· pound sterling x U.S. dollar - a 0.23% appreciation
of the pound sterling;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· renminbi x U.S. dollar – a 0.89% appreciation
of the renminbi.

The reasonably possible scenario has the same references and considers the risk of a 20% depreciation of the closing exchange rate of the year against the reference currency, except for assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, when transacted in a currency equivalent to their respective functional currencies.

**33.3.2. Risk management of products prices - crude oil and oil products and other commodities** 

The Company is exposed to commodity price cycles, and it may use derivative instruments to hedge exposures related to prices of products purchased and sold to fulfill operational needs and in specific circumstances depending on business environment analysis and assessment of whether the targets of the Business Plan are being met.

The Company, by use of its assets, positions and market knowledge from its operations in Brazil and abroad, may seek to optimize some of its commercial operations in the international market, with the use of commodity derivatives to manage price risk.

The probable scenario uses market references, used in pricing models for oil, oil products and natural gas markets, and takes into account the closing price of the asset on December 31, 2025. Therefore, no effect is considered arising from outstanding operations in this scenario. The reasonably possible scenario reflects the potential effects on the statement of income from outstanding transactions, considering a variation in the closing price of 20%. To simulate the most unfavorable scenarios, the variation was applied to each asset according to open transactions: price decrease for long positions and increase for short positions.

The Company prefers not to use derivative financial instruments to manage the risk of interest rate fluctuations, adopting structural actions that take into account the effects on integrated risk exposure.

In this sensitivity analysis, the probable scenario represents the amounts to be disbursed by Petrobras relating to the payment of interest on debts linked to floating rates as of December 31, 2025. The reasonably possible scenario represents the disbursement if there is a 40% change on these rates, keeping all other variables constant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33.4. Liquidity risk management

The possibility of insufficient cash to meet obligations on schedule is routinely managed by the company. Liquidity risk is also mitigated by defining benchmarks for cash and financial investment management and by periodically analyzing the risks of projected cash flow, quantifying its main risk factors through Monte Carlo simulations, such as oil prices, exchange rates, international gasoline and diesel prices, among others. In this way, it is possible to assess the need for financial resources to ensure operational continuity and the execution of the Business Plan.

In this context, Petrobras' consolidated and individual financial statements, even if they show negative net working capital, do not compromise its liquidity.

Additionally, the company maintains committed credit lines (revolving credit facilities) contracted as a liquidity reserve in adverse situations, as per explanatory note 30.5, and regularly assesses market conditions and may carry out repurchase transactions of its securities or those of its subsidiaries in the international capital market, through various means, including repurchase offers, redemptions of securities and/or open market operations, provided that they are in line with the company's liability management strategy, which aims to improve the amortization profile and the cost of debt.

The expected cash flows related to indebtedness are presented in notes 30.4 and 31, financing and lease liabilities, respectively, in addition to notes 19.3.4 and 21, which present the post-employment benefit flows and abandonment liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33.5. Credit risk management

The credit risk management policy aims to minimize the possibility of non-receipt of sales made and amounts invested, deposited, or guaranteed by financial institutions and counterparties, through analysis, granting, and management of credits, using quantitative and qualitative parameters appropriate to each of the market segments in which it operates.

As of December 31, 2025, the financial assets of cash and cash equivalents and financial investments are not overdue and have no evidence of material credit losses. These assets have equivalent fair values that do not differ significantly from their carrying amounts.

The effect of credit risk assessments on accounts receivable from customers is available in explanatory notes 14.2 and 14.3, which present the expected credit losses.

The credit risk management policy aims to minimize the possibility of non-payment for sales made and amounts invested, deposited, or guaranteed by financial institutions and counterparties, through analysis, granting, and management of credits, using quantitative and qualitative parameters appropriate to each of the market segments in which it operates.

The commercial credit portfolio is quite diversified among clients in the country's domestic market and foreign markets.

Credit granted to financial institutions is used for accepting guarantees, investing cash surpluses, and defining counterparties in derivative transactions, being distributed among the main international banks classified as "investment grade" by the main international risk rating agencies and Brazilian banks with a minimum risk rating of brA-/A3.br/A-(bra).

As of December 31, 2025, the Brazilian sovereign risk is BB, the best level within the speculative grade category, with effect on the rating of Brazilian banks abroad, which represent most of the Company's balance of other ratings abroad, including cash.

These financial assets, which are not past due nor considered to be credit impaired, present fair values equivalent to or do not differ significantly from their carrying amounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**b)** **Trade and other receivables** 

Most of Petrobras's clients do not have a risk rating granted by rating agencies. Thus, for the definition and monitoring of credit limits, management evaluates the customer's field of activity, commercial relationship, financial relationship with Petrobras and its financial statements, among other aspects.

More information on the effect of this risk assessment is available in notes 14.2 and 14.3, which present the provision for expected credit losses and the respective accounting policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34. Related-party transactions

The Company has a related-party transactions policy, which is revised and approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Company's bylaws.

In order to ensure the goals of the Company are achieved and to align them with transparency of processes and corporate governance best practices, this policy guides Petrobras while entering into related-party transactions and dealing with potential conflicts of interest on these transactions, based on the assumptions and provisions: competitiveness, compliance, transparency, fairness and commutability.

The Statutory Audit Committee (CAE) must approve in advance transactions between the Company and: i) the Brazilian Federal Government, including its agencies or similar bodies; ii) Petros Foundation; iii) Petrobras Health Association; iv) entities controlled by Petrobras in which there is a participation in the share capital of the controlled company by the Brazilian Federal Government, its Entities, or any authority of a public entity to which Petrobras is linked, or by individuals connected to it; v) Petrobras' associated entities (including entities controlled by its associates); and vi) entities controlled by key management personnel or by their close family members, taking into account the materiality established by this policy.

Transactions with the Brazilian Federal Government, including its agencies or similar bodies and controlled entities (the latter when classified as out of the Company's normal course of business by the CAE), which are under the scope of Board of Directors approval, must be preceded by the CAE and Minority Shareholders Committee assessment and must have prior approval of, at least, 2/3 of the board members.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

The related-party transactions policy also aims to ensure an adequate and diligent decision-making process for the Company's key management.

In the fiscal year 2024, the accumulated remuneration for the period was R$2.29 (R$2.72, considering social charges).

On April 16, 2025, the Ordinary General Meeting set the remuneration of the directors (Executive Board and Board of Directors) at up to R$47.57 as the overall limit for remuneration to be paid in the period between April 2025 and March 2026 (R$43.21 in the period between April 2024 and March 2025, set on April 25, 2024).

The average annual remuneration of the members of Petrobras' Fiscal Council in fiscal year 2025 was R$169 thousand (R$203 thousand, considering social charges). In fiscal year 2024, the average annual remuneration was R$167 thousand (R$200 thousand, considering social charges).

The variable remuneration program for members of the Executive Board is conditional upon meeting prerequisites and performance indicators. The variable compensation to be paid changes according to the percentage of goal achievement, and its payment is deferred in 4 annual installments.

As of December 31, 2025, the company provisioned R$15.3 for the Performance Bonus Program – PPP 2025 for members of the Executive Board (R$14.5 as of December 31, 2024).

**Exemption from damage (indemnity)** 

Since 2002, the Company's Bylaws establish the obligation to indemnify its managers, members with statutory functions and other employees and agents who legally act by delegation of the Company's managers, besides maintaining a permanent insurance contract in favor of these individuals, to save them from liability for acts arising from the exercise of their activities. As of 2018, the bylaws also began to provide for the possibility of Petrobras entering into indemnity contracts, in order to cover any expenses due to complaints, inquiries, administrative, arbitration or judicial investigations and proceedings, in Brazil or in any other jurisdiction, which aim to impute responsibility for regular management acts practiced exclusively in the exercise of its activities since the date of its investiture or the beginning of the contractual relationship with the Company. The limits and form of defense in judicial and administrative proceedings are defined in the Policy for the Application and Governance of the Indemnity Commitment, approved by the Board of Directors.

**Supplementary information on Oil and Gas Exploration and Production (unaudited)**

In accordance with Codification Topic 932 - Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), this section provides supplemental information on oil and gas exploration and production activities of the Company. The information included in items (a) through (c) provides historical cost information pertaining to costs incurred in exploration, property acquisition and development, capitalized costs and results of operations. The information included in items (d) and (e) presents information on Petrobras' estimated net proved reserve quantities, standardized measure of estimated discounted future net cash flows related to proven reserves, and changes in estimated discounted future net cash flows.

The Company, on December 31, 2025, maintains activities mainly in Brazil, in addition to activities in Argentina, Colombia and Bolivia, in South America, and South Africa and São Tomé and Príncipe, in Africa. The equity-accounted investments are comprised of the operations of the joint venture Company MP Gulf of Mexico, LLC (MPGoM), in which Murphy Exploration & Production Company ("Murphy") has 80% stake and Petrobras America Inc ("PAI") 20% stake in United States of America, North America. The Company reports its reserves in Brazil, United States of America and Argentina. Volumes in Bolivia are not registered as the Constitution of this country does not allow. In Colombia, South Africa and São Tomé and Príncipe our activities are exploratory, and therefore, there are no associated reserves.

a) Capitalized costs relating to oil and gas producing activities

As set out in note 26, the Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for exploration and development costs of crude oil and natural gas. In addition, notes 23 and 24 present the accounting policies applied by the Company for recognition, measurement and disclosure of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c) Results of operations for oil and gas producing activities

The Company's results of operations from oil and gas producing activities for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are shown in the following table. The Company transfers substantially all of its Brazilian crude oil and gas production to the RT&M and G&LCE segments, respectively, in Brazil. The internal transfer prices calculated by the Company's model may not be indicative of the price the Company would have realized had this production been sold in an unregulated spot market. Additionally, the prices calculated by the Company's model may not be indicative of the future prices to be realized by the Company. Gas prices used are those set out in contracts with third parties.

Production costs are lifting costs incurred to operate and maintain productive wells and related equipment and facilities, including operating employees' compensation, materials, supplies, fuel consumed in operations and operating costs related to natural gas processing plants.

Exploration expenses include the costs of geological and geophysical activities and projects without economic feasibility. Depreciation and amortization expenses relate to assets employed in exploration and development activities. In accordance with Codification Topic 932 of FASB – Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas, income taxes are based on statutory tax rates, reflecting allowable deductions. Interest income and expense are excluded from the results reported in this table.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d) Reserve quantities information

As presented in note 4.1, proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations – prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or there must be reasonable certainty that the project will commence within a reasonable time. Reserves estimate involves a high degree of judgment and complexity and its application affects different items of these Financial Statements.

The Company's estimated net proved oil and gas reserves and changes thereto for the years 2025, 2024 and 2023 are presented in the following table. Proved reserves are estimated in accordance with the reserve definitions prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Proved developed oil and gas reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered: (i) through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well; and (ii) through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate if the extraction is done by means not involving a well.

Proved reserves for which substantial new investments in additional wells and related facilities will be required are named proved undeveloped reserves.

Reserve estimates are subject to variations due to technical uncertainties in the reservoir and changes in economic scenarios.

A summary of the annual changes in the proved reserves of oil is as follows (in millions of barrels):

In 2025, the Company incorporated 1,680 million boe of proved reserves by revising previous estimates, including:

(i) addition of 1,138 million boe due to the performance of assets, mainly in Búzios, Tupi, Itapu and Mero fields in Santos Basin, and other revisions; and

(ii) addition of 542 million boe, due to the progress in the development of Budião, Budião Noroeste and Budião Sudeste fields in the deep waters of Sergipe-Alagoas Basin, and to new wells mainly in Búzios, Tupi, Marlim Sul and Jubarte fields in Santos and Campos basins.

The Company did not have relevant changes related to the variation in the oil price.

The Company's total proved reserve resulted in 12,112 million boe in 2025, considering the variations above and the reduction in 2025 production of 966 million boe. Production refers to volumes that were previously included in our reserves and, therefore, does not consider natural gas liquids, since the reserve is estimated at a reference point prior to gas processing, except in the United States and Argentina. The production also does not consider volumes of injected gas, the production of Extended Well Tests in exploratory blocks and production in Bolivia, since the Bolivian Constitution does not allow the registration of reserves by the Company.

In 2024, the Company incorporated 1,330 million boe of proved reserves by revising previous estimates, including:

(i) addition of 883 million boe due to new projects, mainly in Atapu and Sépia fields and in other fields in Santos, Campos and Solimões basins; and

(ii) addition of 447 million boe, due to the good performance of assets, mainly in Búzios, Itapu, Tupi and Sépia fields, in the Santos Basin, and other revisions.

The Company did not have relevant changes related to the variation in the oil price.

The Company's total proved reserve resulted in 11,386 million boe in 2024, considering the variations above and the reduction in 2024 production of 865 million boe. Production refers to volumes that were previously included in our reserves and, therefore, does not consider natural gas liquids, since the reserve is estimated at a reference point prior to gas processing, except in the United States and Argentina. The production also does not consider volumes of injected gas, the production of Extended Well Tests in exploratory blocks and production in Bolivia, since the Bolivian Constitution does not allow the registration of reserves by the Company.

<br>**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION (Unaudited)**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

In 2023, the Company incorporated 1,262 million boe of proved reserves by revising previous estimates, including:

(i) addition of 1,092 million boe arising from the good performance of assets, mainly in Búzios, Tupi and Atapu fields, in the Santos Basin; and

(ii) addition of 170 million boe due to new projects and other revisions.

The Company did not have relevant changes related to the variation in the oil price.

In addition, the Company incorporated 237 million boe from discoveries and extensions, mainly due to the declaration of commerciality of Raia Manta and Raia Pintada fields (non-operated), in the Campos Basin.

Moreover, proved reserves were reduced by 155 million boe, resulting from sales.

The Company's total proved reserve resulted in 10,921 million boe in 2023, considering the variations above and the reduction in 2023 production of 894 million boe. Production refers to volumes that were previously included in our reserves and, therefore, does not consider natural gas liquids, since the reserve is estimated at a reference point prior to gas processing, except in the United States and Argentina. The production also does not consider volumes of injected gas, the production of Extended Well Tests in exploratory blocks and production in Bolivia, since the Bolivian Constitution does not allow the registration of reserves by the Company.

The tables below present the volumes of proved developed and undeveloped reserves, net, that is, reflecting Petrobras' participation:

e) Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas quantities and changes therein

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, related to the above proved oil and gas reserves, is calculated in accordance with the requirements of Codification Topic 932 – Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas.

<br>**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION (Unaudited)**<br>PETROBRAS<br>(In millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)<br>

Estimates of future cash inflows from production are calculated by applying the average price over the 12-month period prior to the closing date, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first price of each month within that period, unless prices are defined by contractual agreements, excluding indexers based on future conditions. Variations in future prices are limited to variations projected in existing contracts at the end of each fiscal year. Future development and production costs correspond to the estimated future expenditures necessary to develop and extract the estimated proven reserves at the end of the fiscal year, including abandonment costs, based on cost indications at the end of the fiscal year, assuming the continuity of economic conditions at the end of the fiscal year. The estimate of future income tax is calculated using the official tax rates in effect at the end of the fiscal year. In Brazil, future social security contributions are included in conjunction with income tax. The amounts presented as future income tax expenses include permitted deductions, to which the official tax rates apply. Net discounted future cash flows are calculated using discount factors of 10%, applied at mid-year. This discounted future cash flow requires estimates of when future expenditures will be incurred and when reserves will be drawn, year by year.

The valuation prescribed under Codification Topic 932 – Extractive Activities – Oil and Gas requires assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations are made as of December 31 each year and should not be relied upon as an indication of Petrobras' future cash flows or the value of its oil and gas reserves.

The information regarding the standardized measurement of discounted future net cash flows is originally presented in US dollars on SEC Form 20-F and has been converted to Brazilian reais for presentation in these financial statements. Therefore, to maintain consistency with the criteria used in measuring estimates of future cash inflows, as described previously, the exchange rate used for conversion for each period is derived from the average US dollar exchange rate during the 12-month period prior to the closing date, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the exchange rate on the first day of each month within that period. The exchange rate variations resulting from this conversion are shown as accumulated translation adjustments in the cash flow schedules, as follows:

The plants that are part of this Program, as long as they had started in effective commercial operation by December 31, 2004, are entitled to the supply of natural gas by Petrobras for a period of up to 20 years, counted from the beginning of commercial operation, with a price pre-established and readjusted by American inflation.

Our performance in the PPT was based on fulfilling the natural gas supply agreements signed with the thermoelectric plants that are part of the program. The last agreement in effect under the program ended on December 8, 2024. In 2025, there was an adjustment due to exchange rate fluctuations related to the last months of 2024, which generated a negative impact on the result of R$1.5.

II– CONPET - National Program for Rationalization of the Use of Oil and Natural Gas Products (*Programa Nacional de Racionalização do Uso dos Derivados do Petróleo e do Gás Natural)*

The Program, established by Decree of July 18, 1991, aims to promote the development of an anti-waste culture in the use of non-renewable natural resources. Petrobras also participates in the Brazilian Vehicle Labeling Program (PBEV), in partnership with the National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO), which aims to stimulate the production and use of gas-powered appliances and more efficient vehicles. No funds were allocated to CONPET by Petrobras in 2025.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Key audit matter** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**How the matter was addressed in our audit** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; The Company sponsors defined benefit pension and health care plans that provide supplementary post retirement benefits and medical care to its employees and former employees.<br>The measurement of the actuarial obligation of the defined benefit pension and health care plans is dependent, in part, of certain actuarial assumptions. These assumptions include the discount rate and projected medical and hospital costs. The Company hires external actuary to assist in the process of assessing the actuarial assumptions and valuing the actuarial obligation under its defined benefit pension and health care plans.<br>We considered the measurement of the actuarial obligations for the defined benefit pension and health care plans as a key audit matter due to the level of judgment inherent to the actuarial assumptions determination, as well as for the impact that changes on these assumptions could have on the actuarial obligations of the defined benefit pension and health care plans. | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to:<br>- Tests of design and effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the process of measuring the actuarial liability, including controls related to the development, review and approval of the discount rates assumptions and projected medical and hospital costs;<br>- Assessment of the scope, competency, and objectivity of the external actuary hired to assist in the estimate definition of the actuarial obligations for the defined benefit pension and health care plans, including the nature and scope of the work performed, their professional qualification and experience; and<br>- Assessment, with the support of our actuarial specialists, of the assumptions such as discount rates and projected medical and hospital costs, including comparing them to data obtained from external sources.<br>According to the evidence obtained from performing the procedures described above, we considered that the measurement of the actuarial liability of the defined benefit pension and health care plans is acceptable in the context of the individual and consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, for the year ended December 31, 2025. |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Key audit matter** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**How the matter was addressed in our audit** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; The Company identifies its cash generating units ("CGUs") of exploration and production, estimates the recoverable amount of each CGUs based on a projected cash flow for each CGU, and compares to the carrying amount of these CGUs. The cash flow projections used to determine the recoverable amount depend on certain future assumptions such as: Brent oil price, exchange rate (Brazilian Real/US Dollar), capitalizing expenditures ("CAPEX"), operating expenditures ("OPEX"), and volume and timing of recovery of the oil and gas reserves. The recoverable amount is also sensitive to changes in the discount rate used in the cash flow.<br>Additionally, the definition of exploration and production CGUs considers operational factors that impact the interdependencies between oil and gas assets, and, may result in redefinition through aggregations or segregations of the exploration and production areas into CGUs.<br>We considered the impairment testing of exploration and production CGUs as a key audit matter due to the level of complexity and subjectivity on the definition of exploration and production´s CGUs, and the impact that changes in future assumptions could have on the estimate of the recoverable amount. | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to:<br>- Tests of design and effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the process of determining the recoverable amount of exploration and production´s CGU assets, including controls related to the review and approval of the determination of the CGUs, and of the key assumptions used to estimate the recoverable amount; <br>- Assessment of the operational factors considered by the Company for changes in exploration and production CGUs during the year, and compared them to information obtained from internal and external sources;<br>- Assessment of the determination of recovery of oil and gas reserves estimates internally prepared, by comparing it with volumes certified by external reservoirs specialists hired by the Company, and, for a sampling selection of CGUs, with historical data on production; <br>- Assessment of the scope, competency, and objectivity of the Company´s internal engineers responsible for the estimate of the oil and gas reserves, as well as the external reservoir specialists hired by the Company, this included assessing the nature and scope of the work performed, and their professional qualifications and experience;<br>- Assessment, for a sampling selection of CGUs, of the CAPEX and OPEX used on the cash flows projection by comparing these projections with the business plan approved by the Company, and its long-term budgets; <br>- Assessment of Company's ability to project cash flows by comparing the estimated cash flows with actual Company´s cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a selection of CGUs; and<br>- Assessment, with the support of our valuation specialists, of the key assumptions used in the impairment test, such as discount rate, future price of oil and natural gas and exchange rates, comparing them to external market data.<br>According to the evidence obtained from performing the procedures described above, we considered that the recoverable amounts for assets of the exploration and production CGUs are acceptable in the context of the individual and consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, for the year ended December 31, 2025. |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Key audit matter** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**How the matter was addressed in our audit** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; As a part of its operations, the Company incurs on costs related to the obligation to restore and rehabilitate the environment upon the area abandonment.<br>The Company's estimate of the provision for decommissioning costs includes assumptions in relation to the extent of the obligations assumed for environmental restoration, which includes the decommissioning costs and removal of oil and gas production facilities, as well as the estimated timing of the abandonment.<br>We considered the evaluation of the estimate of the provision for decommissioning costs as a key audit matter due to the level of judgment involved on determining the respective assumptions, especially on the extent of the obligations assumed for the environmental repair, which is the criteria to be met when the removal and restoration actually occurs, the timing and estimated costs of abandonment. | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to:<br>- Tests of design and effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the process of defining the estimate provision for decommissioning areas, including controls related to the development, review and approval of the key assumptions such as timing of area abandonment and estimated costs of abandonment; <br>- Assessment of the assumptions of abandonment timing used by the Company, by comparing the production curves and useful life of the oil and gas reserves used in the estimate, with oil and gas reserve volumes certified by external reservoirs specialists hired by the Company;<br>- Assessment, with the support of our infrastructure valuation specialists, of the method used to define the extent of decommissioning work in the determination of the estimated costs by comparing the method to applicable regulatory requirements and relevant industry practices, as well as the assessment of the estimated costs of abandonment by comparing certain costs to existing contracts;<br>- Assessment of the scope, competency, and objectivity of the Company´s internal engineers responsible for the production curves and useful life of the oil and gas reserves, as well as the external reservoir specialists hired by the Company, which included assessing the nature and scope of the work performed, and their professional qualifications and experience; and<br>- Assessment of Company's ability to prepare this estimate by comparing a sampling selection of actual expenditure incurred with the decommissioning of oil and gas production facilities already under abandonment, to the provision for decommissioning previously recognized for such facilities.<br>According to the evidence obtained from performing the procedures described above, we considered that the amount of provision for decommissioning costs is acceptable in the context of the individual and consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, for the year ended December 31, 2025. |

In order to form our opinion, we evaluated whether these statements are reconciled to the financial statements and to the accounting records, as applicable, and whether their form and content are in accordance with the criteria set on Technical Pronouncement CPC 09 (R1) - Statement of Value Added.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Other information accompanying the individual and consolidated financial statements and the auditor's report** |
| Management is responsible for the other information, which comprises the Management's Report and the Financial Performance Report.<br>Our opinion on the individual and consolidated financial statements does not cover the Management's Report and the Financial Performance Report and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon as part of our audit of the financial statements.<br>In connection with our audit of the individual and consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Management's Report and the Financial Performance Report and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that there is material misstatement in the Management's Report and the Financial Performance Report, we are required to report on that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Individual and Consolidated Financial Statements** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the individual and consolidated financial statements in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and the IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.<br>In preparing the individual and consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company and its subsidiaries, or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.<br>Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company and its subsidiaries' financial reporting process.<br>|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Individual and Consolidated Financial Statements** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the individual and consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing will always detect possible existing material misstatements. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these individual and consolidated financial statements.<br>As part of our audit in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:<br>- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the individual and consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve the act of collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.<br>- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.<br>- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.<br>- Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, then we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the individual and consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor´s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.<br>- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the individual and consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. <br>|

We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the group audit and, consequently, for our audit opinion.<br>We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.<br>We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.<br>From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.<br>Rio de Janeiro, March 5, 2026<br>KPMG Auditores Independentes Ltda.<br> CRC SP-014428/O-6 F-RJ<br>*(Original report in Portuguese signed by)*<br> Ulysses M.

**Conclusions and recommendation to the Board of Directors**

The members of the Statutory Audit Committee declare that they are not aware of any situation of significant divergence between the Management, the Independent Auditors of KPMG, and with the committee itself, in relation to the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and taking into account the attributions and limitations inherent to the scope of their activities, considering all the analyses, studies and debates carried out during the meetings and the monitoring and supervision work carried out, with emphasis on the activities of monitoring the quality of the financial statements, internal controls, compliance and risk management, in order to ensure the balance, transparency and integrity of the financial information published for investors, previously described herein in a summarized manner, concluded that:

(i) the internal control processes for the production of financial reports were effective and the actions to prevent and combat fraud and corruption were adequate;

(ii) the Internal Audit has a financial budget compatible with its organizational structure, allowing it to satisfactorily perform its functions, with independent action;

(iii) the Independent Audit was effective and no occurrences that could compromise its independence were reported;

(iv) the management and monitoring of the main risk factors were managed by Management;

(v) the transactions with related parties assessed and monitored in the period complied with Petrobras' Related Party Transactions Policy and provided evidence of the existence of strictly commutative conditions, transparency, equity, the Company's interest and adequate and timely disclosure;

(vi) the parameters on which the actuarial calculations were based, as well as the results of the benefit plans maintained by the Petrobras Social Security Foundation, are reasonable and in line with best market practices; and

(vii) The Self-Managed Health Care Plan observes the regulatory requirements of current legislation regarding minimum governance guidelines and parameters, and adopts continuous monitoring and evaluation processes, ensuring the effective implementation of best management and compliance practices for the plan's sustainability.

As a result of the assessments based on the information received from Petrobras' Management, the work of the Internal Audit and the examinations of the financial statements by the independent auditors, who issued a report with an unqualified opinion, the Statutory Audit Committee recommends the approval, by the Board of Directors, of the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 for subsequent submission to the General Shareholders' Meeting.
