Report of theBrazilian CorporateGovernance CodeItaú Unibanco Holding S.A.July / 202520252025 Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. Report of the Brazilian Corporate Governance Code. 2 Partially compliant Compliant N/A Not compliant 1.1.1 Partially compliant Compliant N/A Not compliant The company's capital stock should be comprised of common shares only. Our Bylaws provide for two types of shares, common (ON) and preferred (PN) shares, both book-entry, with no par value and in a single class. Each common share entitles its holder to one vote at General Stockholders' Meetings. Preferred shares carry no voting rights, except in specific cases legally provided for, and give their holders priority on the receipt of non-cumulative minimum annual dividends of R$0.022 per share, adjusted in the event of a stock split or reverse stock split, and also the right, in the event of a disposal of control, to be included in a public offering for the acquisition of shares, in order to assure a price equal to 80% of the amount paid per voting share to the controlling group, ensuring dividends at least equal to those of common shares. Preferred shares are a legitimate instrument, set forth by law, and their issue has no bearing on the quality of our management, corporate governance level, performance or returns to our Stockholders. Since our incorporation, our controlling Stockholders believe that our capital structure satisfactorily meets our corporate purposes. The Bylaws are available on our investor relations website: https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/en/ > Menu > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Bylaws. 1.2.1 Stockholders' agreements should not bind the exercise of voting rights of any member of management or supervisory and control bodies. Given the merger between Itaú and Unibanco, in 2009, regulation through a Stockholders' Agreement became necessary, including binding the exercise of the voting rights of members of the Board of Directors. We believe that the definition and regulation of stockholding control, as reflected in the Stockholders' Agreement, is positive for the smooth running of the business, and does not harm the interests of investors and the Company itself, mainly considering: (i) the fiduciary duty of all management members, who should always vote in the best interests of the Company; (ii) the existence of a highly professional management with broad technical expertise; (iii) the significant number of independent members of the Board of Directors, currently accounting for 53.8% of the total composition and (iv) the existence of rigorous mechanisms, strictly applied by the Company, to prevent actual situations where conflicts of interest may arise. Our Stockholders' Agreement does not bind the voting rights of any member of the Company's supervisory and control bodies. The Stockholders' Agreement is available on our investor relations website: https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/en/ > Menu > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > Policies > Others. Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. Report of the Brazilian Corporate Governance Code. 3 Partially compliant Compliant N/A Not compliant 1.3.1 The board of officers should use Stockholders' general meetings to communicate how the company's business is being conducted, for which reason management should publish a manual aimed at facilitating and encouraging attendance to Stockholders' general meetings. Partially compliant Compliant N/A Not compliant 1.4.1 The board of directors should conduct a critical analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the defense measure and its characteristics, especially triggers and price parameters, if applicable, providing relevant explanation. Partially compliant Compliant N/A Not compliant Minutes should provide a full understanding of the discussions held at meetings, even if in the form of a summary, and should identify the votes cast by Stockholders. 1.3.2 Partially compliant N/A Not compliant Provisions that prevent the removal of the measure from the bylaws, the so-called "entrenched clause", should not be used. 1.4.2 Compliant Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. Report of the Brazilian Corporate Governance Code. 4 Partially compliant N/A Not compliant Partially compliant N/A Not compliant 1.5.1 Transactions involving a direct or indirect disposal of stockholding control should be followed by a tender offer to all Stockholders, at the same price and in the same conditions obtained by the selling stockholder; (I) THE COMPANY'S BYLAWS SHOULD ESTABLISH THAT: (II) Management should state an opinion on the terms and conditions of corporate reorganizations, capital increases and other transactions leading to a change of control, and whether these terms and conditions ensure fair and equitable treatment to the company's Stockholders. (I) The Brazilian Corporate Law provides for tag-along rights of 80% for minority holders of common shares in the case of a disposal of stockholding control. The Company extends the same 80% tag-along rights to preferred Stockholders. For this reason, the Company is listed on the ITAG – Special Tag-Along Stock Index of B3 – Bolsa, Brasil, Balcão S.A. ("B3"). (II) With respect to the opinion expressed by management members about possible corporate restructurings, the Company understands that management may always express its opinion regardless of statutory provisions. 1.6.1 The bylaws should provide that the board of directors should issue an opinion on any tender offer related to shares and securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares issued by the company, and this should include, among other relevant information, the opinion of the board of directors on any possible acceptance of the tender offer and the company's economic value. Partially compliant N/A Not compliant If the bylaws provide for a tender offer whenever a stockholder or group of Stockholders directly or indirectly attains a significant interest in the voting capital, the rule for determining the offer price should not impose additional premiums substantially greater than the shares' economic or market value. 1.4.3 Compliant Compliant Compliant Itaú Unibanco Holding S.A. Report of the Brazilian Corporate Governance Code. 5 Partially compliant N/A Not compliant Partially compliant N/A Not compliant 1.8.1 The bylaws should clearly and accurately identify the public interest that has justified the creation of the mixed-capital company in a specific chapter. Periodically assess the company's risk exposure and the effectiveness of its risk management systems, internal controls, and compliance system, and approve a risk management policy in line with these business strategies; (II) 2.1.1 Define business strategies, taking into account the impacts of the company's activities on society and the environment, aimed at the continuity of the company and the creation of long-term value; WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO OTHER LEGAL OR STATUTORY POWERS AND OTHER PRACTICES SET FORTH IN THIS CODE, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS SHOULD: (I) 1.8.2 The board of directors should monitor the company's activities and establish policies, mechanisms and internal controls to verify any costs of serving the public interest and any refunds to the company or other Stockholders and investors by the controlling stockholder.

Among other aspects, this policy should provide for the frequency of dividend payouts and the reference parameter to be used to define the related amounts (such as percentages of adjusted profit and free cash flows).

The ESC Responsibility Committee, a joint body, is made up of members of the Board of Directors and its mandate is to define strategies to strengthen the Organization's environmental, social and climate responsibility, in all its elements, including the decarbonization strategy, initiatives focused on ESG and the private social investment strategy. In 2024, among the topics monitored by the Superior ESG Council and the ESC Responsibility Committee, the highlights were the approval of the ESG strategy and of the decarbonization goals of priority carbon-intensive industries, the monitoring of the Environmental, Social and Climate Responsibility Policy (PRSAC) and climate emergencies, legislative advocacy and new ESG regulations, the private social investment and sponsorship and donation strategy, among others. (II) We have a risk management structure aimed at: (i) identifying risks; (ii) measuring risks (analyzing materiality); (iii) assessing risks; (iv) controlling and responding to (mitigating) risks; (v) monitoring risks; and (vi) communicating and reporting. In addition, we have a defined governance framework for policy review applicable to Brazil and the foreign units. Policies basically define institutional guidelines, methodologies and processes, which address regulatory requirements and best market practices. We have internal policies that provide for guidelines and establish risk management governance, as follows: Capital Management, Credit Risk Management and Control, Operational Risk Management, Liquidity Risk Management and Control, Market Risk and IRRBB (Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book) Management and Control, Compliance and Environmental, Social and Climate Risks. The Risk and Capital Management Committee (CGRC) is responsible for supporting the Board of Directors in carrying out its risk and capital management activities.

The Code of Ethics and Conduct is divided into five strategic pillars: "Our corporate identity", "Our interactions", "Bona fides and our professional attitude", "How we manage conflicts of interest" and "Use, management and scope of the Code of Ethics and Conduct". The Corporate Integrity, Ethics and Conduct Policy complements the Code of Ethics and Conduct, establishing a series of procedures aimed at ensuring the dissemination of ethical behaviors and the adoption of proper conduct by all management members and employees of Itaú Unibanco. We also have a Supplier Relationship Code that, in addition to being applied to all management members and employees of Itaú Unibanco, is also applicable to direct and indirect suppliers. The Code of Ethics and Conduct, as well as the Corporate Integrity, Ethics and Conduct Policy, are available on our investor relations website: https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/en/ > Menu > Itaú Unibanco > Integrity and Ethics > Code of Ethics and Conduct. The Supplier Relationship Code is available on: https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/integridade/en/.

This evaluation is conducted by an independent person, responsible for issuing specific questionnaires to the Board of Directors and to each Committee, as well as for interviewing each of the members of the Board of Directors and the Committees individually. The responses are then analyzed and compared with those from previous years to identify and address possible gaps related to the Board of Directors, the Committees and the Secretariat of the Board of Directors that may be identified by this process, such as deadlines for receiving materials and defining the Board of Directors' agenda. The Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee provides methodological and procedural support to the evaluation process.

Our Compensation Policy takes into account market practices, our strategy and appropriate risk management over time so as not to encourage behaviors that could increase the risk exposure above levels considered prudent. The governance structure that defines the compensation comprises clear and transparent processes. Accordingly, to achieve the aforementioned objectives, and aiming at adopting the best governance practices in Brazil and abroad, as well as ensuring the balance of risk management practices, we have a statutory Compensation Committee reporting to the Board of Directors, whose main duties in accordance with its Internal Charter, are: (i) setting the Compensation Policy for the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate's management members, by proposing to the Board of Directors the many forms of fixed and variable compensation, in addition to benefits and special recruitment and termination programs; (ii) discussing, analyzing and overseeing the implementation and operation of the compensation models in place for the Itaú Unibanco Conglomerate, discussing the general principles of the employee Compensation Policy and recommending any corrections or improvements to the Board of Directors; (iii) proposing to the Board of Directors the aggregate compensation amount for management members to be submitted to the Annual General Stockholders' Meeting; and (iv) preparing the "Compensation Committee Report" on an annual basis.

The Board of Directors is the highest authority with respect to the Company's risk management. To help the Board of Directors, a Risk and Capital Management Committee (CGRC) was established, whose duty is to support the Board of Directors with the performance of its responsibilities related to the Company's risk and capital management, submitting for the Board's consideration reports and recommendations on topics such as, but not limited to: approval and review, at least once a year, of the policies, strategies and risk management limits (including on conformity and compliance); definition of the Company's Risk Appetite, pursuing alignment with the strategy, including acceptable tolerance levels and types of risk to which the Company may be exposed, as well as the supervision of compliance with the terms of the Company's Risk Appetite, and oversight of the risk management and control activities, aiming at ensuring their adequacy to the risk levels assumed and to the complexity of operations; assessment of the level of adherence of the risk management structure processes to the policies established, and the promotion of the improvement of the Company's risk culture. Risk Appetite structures the Board of Directors' set of guidelines on strategy and risk taking, by defining the nature and level of risks acceptable to the organization, and taking into account management capability in an effective and conservative way, strategic goals, competition conditions and the regulatory environment. It was segmented into dimensions that combine supplementary measurement types to obtain a comprehensive view of the exposures to the types and levels of acceptable risks, which are translated into indicators that can be monitored by means of metrics that capture the main risks incurred by the institution. Permanent interactions between the executives and the Board of Directors are required to establish and maintain this entire framework.At the executive level, risk and capital management is carried out by Senior Councils, chaired by the CEO of Itaú Unibanco, as well as by several councils linked to the Executive Committee, which support the management of specific risks. Through the council and committee hierarchy, risks are discussed at different levels of authority in the organization. Councils and committees use materials that include recurring and specific risk and capital management reports, including elements relevant to each joint body. The main risk and capital report is the Risk Appetite report, which is submitted monthly to the Risk and Capital Management Committee, to the Board of Directors and, periodically, to the Audit Committee. With respect to the Integrity and Ethics Program, its indicators are periodically reported to the Integrity and Ethics joint bodies, made up of members of the Executive Committee and officers from the business and supporting areas of the bank. These joint bodies are also responsible for defining the guidelines and practices of the program, and for monitoring their compliance and the other actions required to manage the program.With respect to the regulatory or compliance risk at Itaú Unibanco, it is managed through a structured process, which aims at identifying the changes in the regulatory environment, analyzing the impacts on the Institution's areas and monitoring the actions focused on the adherence to external or internal regulatory requirements. The Board of Directors approves the guidelines, strategies and policies aiming at ensuring a clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities of all levels of Itaú Unibanco.

It should be operated in an independent and unbiased way, and preserve the anonymity of its users, in addition to timely investigate and take the measures required. This service may be carried out by a reputable third party. We provide public whistleblowing channels for grievances and complaints about misconduct, crimes, offenses, non-compliance with rules, abuse, harassment, discrimination and other behavioral deviations. Our channels are also described in the Code of Ethics and Conduct, a public document approved by the Board of Directors and applied without distinction to all management members and employees of the Conglomerate in Brazil and abroad.

The Code discloses the whistleblowing and/or guidance channels, each with its own specifications. The guidelines for all of these channels are as follow: The secrecy of the investigation should be maintained; anonymity should be ensured for those who want it; investigations should be carried out on an independent and unbiased way; unsubstantiated charges or accusations should be dismissed; malicious charges or accusations aimed at harming a person should be subject to disciplinary sanctions; and disciplinary sanctions should be applied to any attempted retaliation. We ensure the protection of the whistleblowers, and allow no retaliation against those who, in good faith, complains or reports a complaint, suspicion, question or concern regarding possible violations of the guidelines of our Code of Ethics and Conduct and corporate policies.

If they fail to do so, these rules should provide for that another knowing person may bring such conflict to light and that, as soon as this conflict of interest regarding a specific topic is identified, the involved person keeps away, including physically, from such discussions and resolutions. These rules should set forth that this temporary seclusion be recorded in the minutes. The company should have mechanisms to manage conflicts of interest in relation to votes at general Stockholders' meetings, to receive and deal with alleged conflicts of interest, and to annul votes cast in such conflicting situations, even if this takes place subsequently to voting. The Company's General Stockholders' Meeting Manual expressly provides that during the General Meeting, as is the case at meetings of the Company's management and supervisory bodies, attending Stockholders should bring to light any conflicts of interest in any matters under discussion or resolution, in which their independence may be compromised. Also, any attending Stockholder aware of a conflicting situation in relation to another Stockholder and to the subject matter of the resolution must speak up thereon. When the conflict of interest is brought into light, the conflicted Stockholder shall abstain from taking part in the resolution of the related matter. If the conflicted Stockholder refuses to abstain from taking part in the resolution, the Chairperson of the General Stockholders' Meeting will determine that the conflicted votes cast be annulled, even if it is to occur after the meeting. The General Stockholders' Meeting Manuals are available on our Investor Relations website: https://www.itau.com.br/relacoes-com-investidores/en/ Menu > Itaú Unibanco > Corporate Governance > General Stockholders' Meetings. The Corporate Policy on Integrity and Ethics establishes as a fundamental principle that all employees of the Conglomerate must proactively observe and prevent conflicts of interest, avoiding any situation that could compromise Itaú's objectivity, impartiality, or reputation; they must report any potential conflicts and refrain from participating in discussions and decisions involving them. The Charter of the Board of Directors includes an express provision establishing rules to prevent possible conflicts, such as prohibiting members of the Board of Directors from taking part in resolutions related to topics with which their interests conflict with those of the Company. Each member should report to the Board of Directors any conflict of interest they have as soon as the matter is included in the agenda or proposed by the Board of Directors' Chairperson and, in any case, before the beginning of any discussion on each topic. Furthermore, the Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall terminate the term of office of any member of the Audit Committee if their independence has been affected by any actual or potential conflict of interest. Finally, the Transactions with Related Parties Policy expressly provides that, in situations where a member involved in the approval of the transaction is prevented from resolving on the matter due to a potential conflict of interest, the said member must declare themselves impeded, explaining their involvement in the transaction and providing details of the transaction and the parties involved. The impediment must be reported in the document containing the resolutions on the transaction.

The Policy sets out that persons bound by the policy are responsible for, among others: (i) keeping secret information related to material facts pertaining to the Company and its controlled companies, and refraining from using such information to gain the upper hand, for their own benefit or the benefit of others, in the securities market, ensuring that subordinates and third parties they trust keep secret such information and refrain from using it, being held jointly and severally liable for any noncompliance therewith; and (ii) making exclusive use of the Conglomerate's brokers to trade the securities under this Policy, which have controls in Brazil to prevent trading during blackout periods. The Compliance department monitors adherence with the Policy in relation to the trading of securities issued by the Conglomerate. Any noncompliance is investigated and submitted to our Integrity and Ethics Committee and Disclosure and Trading Committee accordingly. The Policy for the Disclosure of Material Acts or Facts also sets out other mechanisms to control information secrecy in connection with material facts, such as: (i) bound persons should ensure the safe storage and transmission of material information (emails, files, etc.), avoiding any type of unauthorized access, and should also restrict the forwarding of information not properly protected to third parties. Material information should always be discussed in restricted and non-public places; and (ii) together with the process that gave rise to the material fact, a list of the bound persons who had knowledge of the information before its disclosure should be filed accordingly. 5.4.1 The company should adopt, as resolved by the board of directors, a policy for trading securities issued by the company, which, without prejudice to compliance with the CVM rules, establishes controls to achieve the monitoring of trades executed, as well as investigations into and sanctions against any party who does not comply with the policy. 5.5.1 In order to ensure greater transparency in the use of the company's resources, a policy should be prepared on voluntary contributions, including those related to political activities, to be approved by the board of directors and carried out by the board of officers, including clear and objective principles and rules.
