MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGEMENT

After the more challenging period the company has been through in recent years, we start this message with a lot of positive news for 2Q23: 1) record operating cash generation for a quarter, exceeding R$100 million in Tenda segment and R$180 million in the consolidated; 2) the completion of one more sale of a pro-solute portfolio, this time for a net amount of R$ 106 million; 3) now referring to July (first month with the new parameters of Minha Casa Minha Vida "MCMV" program), we reached the highest monthly sales volume since May 2022, with 1,588 units sold in the month (17% higher than the monthly average of 1H23) with a price of R$ 210 thousand per unit, (3.5% higher than the average price of 2Q23) and; 4) Alea projects already well advanced in the approval process amount to somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000 units launched in the year.

We therefore express our deepest gratitude to everyone involved in our company for their relentless commitment and hard work during this recent period. Our recovery journey has been remarkable, and the positive results we have achieved in recent quarters reflect our collective commitment to the company.

It is key to recognize the hardships we have faced in the past and how we have learned from them. Our losses led us to a deep thinking about our processes and brought the opportunity to improve our strategy for a sustainable future. We are committed to becoming an even stronger and more resilient organization, able to overcome challenges and reach new heights of size and profitability.

Our recovery has been driven by a several key factors. Firstly, we performed a deep review of our operating processes, aiming at improving efficiency and quality in all steps of our business. This initiative has been resulting in higher profitability, significant decrease in rework and waste and increased satisfaction of our customers. We also implemented a rigorous and strategic financial management, analyzing our costs in detail and identifying opportunities to optimize cash generation. In the process of regaining profitability, one of the clearest signs of our progress is our average selling price, which reached 203.3 thousand in 2Q23 (+4.6% vs 1Q23) and R$ 210 thousand in July (+3.5% vs 2Q23).

Price Evolution x Net Pre-Sales (PSV, R$ million) and Net SoS (%)

As expected, cost deviations have further reduced to R$ 9.9 million in 2Q23, down 66% versus 1Q23. We believe that we can finally claim to have turned the page on the issue of cost deviations. Since May, costs have been in line with budgets, a trend also seen in July. Therefore, we believe that we can finally say that the company does not expect further material cost deviations, as long as the scenario of stability that we have seen in INCC is maintained.

It is also worth noting that in June, INCC's methodology was reviewed so as to reflect the changes in the structure of construction costs over time, related to technological innovations, materials used and production processes. We believe this review will help keep the index in line with the trend in Brazilian construction costs and the company by increasing the weight of materials in the weighting.

Our gross margin on new sales also continued to evolve, with a 60bps increase in 2Q23 compared to 1Q23.
