Report on the review of interim financial information (ITR)
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
JBS S.A.
São Paulo - SP
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information of JBS S.A. (“the Company”) contained in the Quarterly Information Form - ITR for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, which comprises the statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024 and the related statement of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended, including the explanatory notes.
The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation of this individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with Technical Pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) – Demonstração Intermediária and the international standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, as well as for the presentation of this information in accordance with standards issued by the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários, applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information Form - ITR. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with the Brazilian and International standards on review engagements of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 - Revisão de Informações Intermediárias Executada pelo Auditor da Entidade and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the financial and accounting matters and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the Quarterly Information Form – ITR referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34, issued by IASB, applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information Form - ITR, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários – CVM.

Other matters
Statements of Value Added
The interim financial information mentioned above includes Statements of Value Added, individual and consolidated, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, prepared under the responsibility of the Company’s management and presented as supplementary information for the purposes of IAS 34. These statements were submitted to review procedures together with the review of the Quarterly Information, with the objective of concluding whether they are reconciled with the interim financial information and accounting records, as applicable, and whether their form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in Technical Pronouncement CPC 09 – Demonstração do Valor Adicionado. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that it has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria defined in this Pronouncement and consistent with the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.

JBS S.A (“JBS” or the “Company”), is a corporation with its headquarters office in Brazil, in the City of São Paulo, and is controlled by J&F Investimentos S.A. The Company has its shares publicly traded and listed on the “Novo Mercado” segment of the São Paulo Stock Exchange (B3 - Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias & Futuros) under the ticker symbol “JBSS3”. In addition, American Depository Receipts related to shares issued by JBS are also publicly traded in the United States of America under the symbol “JBSAY”. These individual and consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the ‘Company’) for the period ended March 31, 2024 and were authorized by the Board of Directors on May 14, 2024.
The financial statements presented below include, in addition to the individual operations of JBS in Brazil, the activities of its subsidiaries, in Brazil and abroad.
| 1.1 | Main operating events that occurred during the period: |
1.1.1 New York Civil complaint: On February 28, 2024, the New York Attorney General’s Office filed a civil complaint in the state Supreme Court against the indirect subsidiaries JBS USA Food Company and JBS USA Food Company Holdings. The claim assumes that consumers were misled by statements by the Company that assured commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and striving to achieve Net Zero by 2040. The complaint seeks disgorgement of profits, civil penalties, attorney’s fees and other relief. Based on the opinion of the Company’s legal advisors, we are confident that we will be successful in our defense strategy.
1.1.2 Registration of debts with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC): On March 27, 2024, the Group filed with the securities commission of the United States of America, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) the Offer to Exchange the 13 existing series of debt securities (“Old Bonds”), not registered at the SEC, for new registered debt securities (“New Bonds”).
1.2 Seasonality: In the chicken business, globally, fluctuations are historically greater in the first half of the year, in which the sales volume of some of our special product lines suffers, variations resulting from some holidays, such as Christmas, New Year and Easter. For the beef industry in the United States, during the second and third quarters, the beef industry experiences seasonal demand for beef products that is highest in the summer and fall months in the Northern Hemisphere when weather patterns allow for more activity around the world. outdoors, however in Australia at the end of the fourth quarter a reduction in slaughter was observed due to the lower availability of cattle during the rainy season, which makes transporting the animals difficult. As for the pork sector in the United States and Australia, the greatest demand for pork occurs in the first and fourth quarters, when the availability of pigs combined with holidays increase demand.
| 2 | Basis of preparation and presentation of financial statements |
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the standard CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Statements, approved by the Brazilian Accounting Standards Committee and equivalent to International Accounting Standard “IAS” 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Therefore, these Interim Condensed Financial Statements as of March 31, 2024 do not include all footnotes and information required to be considered “complete financial statements” due to redundancy in relation to what is presented in the individual and consolidated annual financial statements (December 31, 2022) prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil (BRGAAP) and with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), approved by the Board of Directors on March 26, 2024. The parent company’s individual financial statements are identified as “Company” and the consolidated financial statements are identified as “Consolidated”.
| 2.1 | Functional and presentation currency |
These condensed interim financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (R$), which is the Company’s presentation and functional currency. All financial information is presented in thousands of reais, except when indicated otherwise.
| 2.2 | New standards, amendments and interpretations |
| a. | Standards, amendments and interpretations recently issued and adopted by the Company
|
IAS 7/CPC 26 and IFRS 7/CPC 40 – Supplier financing agreements (“Risk Withdrawn”)
Effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 but not required for any interim period presented within the annual reporting period, the changes aim to increase transparency and comparability of financial information in supplier finance arrangements, which involve financing suppliers through a financial institution. Companies will be required to disclose the terms and conditions of transactions with suppliers, the effects of these arrangements on liabilities and cash flows, and on the exposure to liquidity risk related to these arrangements. The Group is monitoring the changes and will adjust the disclosure in the explanatory notes according to the standard’s requirements by the year-end’s financial statements.
| b. | New standards, amendments and interpretations that are not yet effective |
IAS 21/CPC 02 – IAS 21/CPC 02 – Effect of changes in exchange rates and conversion of financial statements
Starting from January 1, 2025, this amendment establishes accounting requirements for situations where a functional currency cannot be converted into other currencies. In such cases, the Group must use the most recent observable exchange rate to translate the results and financial position of foreign operations into its presentation currency. The entity should also disclose this exchange rate, the date it was observed, and the reasons why the currency is non-exchangeable. The Group is monitoring the changes, and so far, no impacts have been identified.

Additional information: analysis of the variation in the effective rate:
The Company believes that due to the origin and non-recurrence of specific events certain items should not be excluded from the effective tax rate disclosure such as deferred tax effects on goodwill amortization; unrecognized tax benefits and income tax on realization of the other reserves (since it is not relate to the net operating income); and v) effects of investments grants from priors years. Therefore, the adjusted effective rate excluding the aforementioned effects, in the three month period ended at March 31, 2024 and 2023, the adjusted effective rate would be 39,21% and2,23% in the Company and 3,13% and 42,60% in the Consolidated; and in the three month period ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the adjusted effective rate would be -6.66% and -0,64% in the Company and -12,37% and -17,35% in Consolidated.
(3) | The Company and its subsidiaries recognize investments grants given by state governments as a presumed credit, partial and full reduction of the ICMS calculation base of certain goods in its production chain, in accordance with the regulations of each state. The amounts appropriated from these tax incentives as revenue in the income statement are excluded from the calculation of taxes on income, when the requirements set forth in current legislation are achieved. During the three month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company and its subsidiaries recorded the amount of government subsidies in the amount of 5,4 billion (R$2.1 billion as of the three month period ended March 31, 2023), of which R$2.18 billion of presumed credit (R$2.1 billion as of the three month period ended March 31, 2023) and R$3.22 billion of reduction and exemption from ICMS, (zero as of the three month period ended March 31, 2023) excluded from its calculation basis for income tax and social contribution. |
The exclusion of this tax benefit from the income tax and social contribution calculation base on net income reflected a tax gain on the fiscal year of 2024 of R$263 million referring to the presumed credit.
On June 12, 2023, the ruling on Special Appeals n. 1,945,110 and 1,987,158 (Repetitive Topic 1182), which discusses the requirement for IRPJ and CSLL on amounts related to ICMS tax incentives, different from those granted in the form of presumed credits. The ruling in question stated that the taxes in question are not due, as long as the requirements of article 30 of Law no. 12,973/2014, given that the Company recorded the profit reserve referred to in article 195-A of Law no. 6,404/76. On August 31, 2023, Provisional Measure No. 1185/23 was published, which changed the investment subsidy regime for tax purposes and revoked article 30 of Law No. 12,973/14, which was converted into Law on December 29, 2023 through Law No. 14,789, the effects of which will be observed for the year 2024.
(4) | According to Law No. 12,973/14, the income from foreign subsidiaries must be taxed at the Brazilian statutory tax rate of 34%, and the income tax paid abroad by these subsidiaries may be used to compensate income taxes to be paid in Brazil. The results obtained from foreign subsidiaries are subject to taxation by the countries where they are based, according to applicable rates and legislation (profits taxed by-foreign jurisdictions included in the reconciliation of income tax and social contribution expense). The Group analyzes the results of each subsidiary for the application of its income tax legislation, in order to respect the treaties signed by Brazil and avoid double taxation. |
(5) | Refers to the donations made by the Company, as described in Note 25 – Expenses by nature. |

Global Minimum Tax:
From 2024, Pillar II rules come into force in several countries, impacting multinationals operating in these jurisdictions.
The Company, as it is subject to such global Pillar II standards, decided to apply the exception for recognition and disclosure of information on deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as estimated additional payment related to income tax due to measurement uncertainties and impacts.
We emphasize that the Company and its subsidiaries are monitoring potential impacts that this new rule could bring to the Group.

Fair value of assets and liabilities through profit or loss: The Company and its subsidiaries determine fair value measurements in accordance with the hierarchical levels that reflect the significance of the inputs used in the measurement, with the exception of those maturing at short term, equity instruments without an active market and contracts with discretionary characteristics that the fair value can not be measured reliably, according to the following levels:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1, in which prices are quoted for similar assets and liabilities, either directly by obtaining prices in active markets or indirectly through valuation techniques that use data from active markets;
Level 3 - Inputs used for fair value calculations which are not derived from an active market. The Company and its subsidiaries do not have any financial instruments that utilize level 3 inputs.

Fair value of assets and liabilities carried at amortized cost: The fair value of the Notes under Rule 144-A and Regulation S, are estimated using the closing sale price of these securities informed by a financial newswire on March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, considering there is an active market for these financial instruments. The book value of the remaining fixed-rate loans approximates fair value since the interest rate market, the Company’s credit quality, and other market factors have not significantly changed since entering into the loans. The book value of variable-rate loans and financings approximates fair value given the interest rates adjust for changes in market conditions and the quality of the Company’s credit rating has not substantially changed. For all other financial assets and liabilities, book value approximates fair value due to the short duration of the instruments. The following details the estimated fair value of loans and financings:

| (1) | For currency hedging purposes, the Company includes in its exposure the net debt of foreign subsidiaries. Although these debts do not generate currency exposure in the Company's results (since they are abroad, and in the functional currency of each country), these debts in the consolidation are affected by the exchange rate, impacting shareholders' equity as exchange variation on investment, influencing the consolidated debt of the Company, and consequently the leverage indicators. |

c3. Hedge accounting of Seara Alimentos:
From the third quarter of 2021, the indirect subsidiary Seara Alimentos reviewed its hedge policies and started to apply hedge accounting in grain operations, aiming at bringing stability to the subsidiary’s results. The designation of these instruments is based on the guidelines outlined in the Financial and Commodity Risk Management Policy defined by the Risk Management Committee and approved by the Board of Directors.
Financial instruments designated for hedge accounting were classified as cash flow hedge. The effective amount of the instrument’s gain or loss is recognized under “Other comprehensive income (expense)” and the ineffective amount under “Financial income (expense), net”, and the accumulated gains and losses are reclassified to profit and loss or to the balance sheet when the object is recognized, adjusting the item in which the hedged object was recorded.
In these hedge relationships, the main sources of ineffectiveness are the effect of the counterparties and the Company’s own credit risk on the fair value of the forward foreign exchange contracts, which is not reflected in the change in the fair value of the hedged cash flows attributable to the change in exchange rates; and changes in the timing of the hedged transactions.
The derivative financial instruments designated at the March 31, 2024, as hedge accounting, according to the cash flow method, to protect the operating results in relation to the price of commodities are:
Hedge accounting - Derivative instruments | | Risk factor | | Quantity | | | Notional | | | Fair value | |
Future contracts | | Commodities | | | 9,067 | | | | 246,441 | | | | 3,014 | |
Seara Alimentos also designates derivatives to hedge the fair value of debt instruments with floating interest rates through swaps of fixed interest rates, measured in accordance with fair value hedge accounting.

e. Risks linked to climate change and the sustainability strategy
In view the Company’s operations, there is inherent exposure to risks related to climate change. Certain Company assets, which are mainly biological assets that can be measured at fair value, may be impacted by climate change and are considered in the preparation process of these interim financial statements.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, Management considered as main risk the data and assumptions highlighted below:
(i) | possible impacts on the determination of fair value in biological assets due to the effects of climate change, such as temperature rise, scarcity of water resources, may impact some assumptions used in accounting estimates related to the Company’s biological assets, as follows: |
| ● | losses of biological assets due to heat waves and droughts which occur with greater frequency and intensity; |
| ● | reduction in the expected growth of our biological assets due to natural disasters, fires, pandemics or changes in rainfall patterns; and |
| ● | interruption in the production chain due to adverse weather events, causing power outages, fuel shortages, disruption of transportation channels, among other things. |
| (ii) | structural changes and their impacts on the business, such as: |
| ● | regulatory and legal: regulation and legislation arising from Brazilian and/or international authorities that encourage the transition to a low-carbon economy and/or with greater biodiversity and that increase the risk of litigation and/or commercial restrictions related to the alleged contribution, even if indirect, for the intensification of climate change; |
| ● | reputational: related to customers’ perceptions and the society in general regarding the positive or negative contribution of an organization to a low carbon economy. |

a. In reference to the floods that occurred in Rio Grande do Sul, the Company is monitoring the evolution, development and potential impacts on its operations. Our poultry and swine units in Rio Grande do Sul were not significantly impacted by the rains and are already operating. The initial impacts suffered in these units were a consequence of flooding and logistical disruption in the region, which we are managing to overcome thanks to the efforts of our team and the State.
The Company is providing support to the families and our employees affected by the tragedy through the donation of food, emergency items and the anticipation of the 13th salary to employees in Rio Grande do Sul. In addition, all our units in Brazil came together to collect and donate inputs to our employees and local communities, through the “Fazer o Bem Faz Bem” program.
b. On May 13, 2024, the Company announced settlements for early redemption of CRA debts due in April of 2028, December of 2031 and December of 2036 and the extraordinary amortization of the series due in November of 2027, totaling the approximate amount of R$1.9 billion to be settled in May of 2024.
