Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Azul S.A. convenes an all‑virtual annual general meeting on April 30, 2026 to approve 2025 financial statements, allocate results, and set 2026 management compensation. Shareholders may attend via digital platform or vote through a remote ballot or ADS voting instructions.

For 2025, Azul reports net income of BRL 124.9 million, which will fully offset part of large accumulated losses, reducing the loss balance to about BRL 34.7 billion. No dividends or interest on equity will be paid because the profit is entirely absorbed by past losses.

Management proposes ordinary cash compensation for directors, the Strategy Committee and executive officers of about BRL 39.1 million for 2026, plus substantial equity incentives under a 2026 restricted share and option plan covering up to 7% of share capital. The estimated accounting expense for these grants brings total proposed global compensation to roughly BRL 299.0 million, to be settled in treasury shares or new shares rather than cash.

Shareholders holding at least 2% of common shares may request installation of a Fiscal Council, although the board argues existing Strategy and Audit Committees already cover oversight and that a Fiscal Council would add cost without extra benefit.

Insights

Azul swings to profit but remains heavily loss‑burdened and proposes sizable equity‑based pay.

Azul reports net income of BRL 124.9 million for 2025, a sharp turnaround from prior large losses. However, accumulated losses remain very high at about BRL 34.7 billion, so all 2025 profit is used to reduce this balance and no dividends are proposed.

The company seeks approval for ordinary cash compensation of BRL 39.1 million for 2026, plus equity grants under the 2026 plan covering up to 7% of share capital. Estimated accounting expenses of BRL 88.2 million for Chapter 11‑related awards and BRL 171.8 million for broader grants bring total global compensation to BRL 299.0 million.

These awards are settled in shares, not cash, so they do not strain liquidity but may increase dilution over time. Shareholders will weigh this against the company’s post‑reorganization context and the lack of dividends while large historical losses are still being worked down.

Notice of Annual General Meeting

 

On March 31, 2026, Azul S.A. (the “Company”) published a notice of the annual general meeting of the shareholders of the Company, to be held, on first call, on April 30, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. (Brazil time) (the “Annual General Meeting”), to deliberate on the following matters (each of which is more fully described in the Management Proposal (as defined below)):

 

(1)approval of the Company’s accounts and financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, together with the management report, the opinion issued by the Company’s independent auditors, the report of the Company’s audit committee and the opinion of the Company’s fiscal council;

 

(2)as required by applicable law, approval of the absorption of the Company’s net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, by the accumulated losses from prior fiscal years, to reduce the Company’s accumulated losses; and

 

(3)approval of the ordinary aggregate annual compensation of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Strategy Committee and the Executive Board for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

 

Although not on the agenda of the Annual General Meeting, CVM Resolution No. 77, of March 29, 2022, allows shareholders representing at least two percent (2%) of the total common shares issued by the Company to request the installation of a Fiscal Council. Therefore, by legal requirement, and in view of the fact that the term of office of the current members of the Company’s Fiscal Council ends on the date of the Annual General Meeting, the Company’s ballot in respect of the Annual General Meeting contains a question as to whether the shareholder wishes to request the installation of a Fiscal Council, under the terms of article 161 of Law No. 6,404, of 1976. As described in the Management Proposal, the Company is of the view that the Strategic Committee and the Audit Committee are sufficient to adequately perform the supervisory functions that would otherwise be exercised by the Fiscal Council and that the installation of the Fiscal Council would be redundant and would represent an additional cost without providing incremental value at this time.

 

A copy of the proposal of the management of the Company in respect of the Annual General Meeting is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 (the “Management Proposal”).

 

The quorum required for the opening of the Annual General Meeting is one quarter (1/4) of the voting shares issued by the Company. If the statutory quorum is not reached, the Company shall publish a new call notice announcing the date of the Annual General Meeting to be held on second call (the quorum for which shall be satisfied by the presence of any number of shareholders).

 

The matters included in the agenda of the Annual General Meeting shall be approved if the Company obtains the affirmative vote of shareholders representing the majority of the common shares issued by the Company that are present at the Annual General Meeting.

 

Procedures for Voting ADSs

 

In relation to the common shares of the Company that are held in the form of American depositary shares (“ADSs”), Citibank, N.A., the depositary in respect of the ADSs (the “Depositary”) has established a record date for the Annual General Meeting of April 2, 2026 (the “ADS Record Date”). Accordingly, subject to compliance with customary procedures and subject to the terms of the deposit agreement in respect of the ADSs, holders of ADSs as of the ADS Record Date shall be entitled to instruct the Depositary to vote the ADSs held by them.

 
 

 

The manner in which holders of ADSs can instruct the Depositary to vote depends on the manner in which the holder held their ADSs on the ADS Record Date:

 

(1)Holders of ADSs who, on the ADS Record Date, held their ADS in brokerage and custodian accounts via The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) will be able to instruct the Depositary to vote their ADSs by following the customary procedures of brokers and custodians for corporate actions of this type (which often involves the relevant holder receiving an email or other electronic message providing instructions on how to vote).

 

(2)Holders of ADSs who, on the ADS Record Date, held their ADS in via the Direct Registration System (“DRS”) administered by DTC will be physically mailed a voting instructions form (the “Voting Instructions”) to be completed and returned to the Depositary, as described in the Voting Instructions. Holders of ADSs can also send an email to both ri@voeazul.com.br and HLAzul@hoganlovells.com to request a PDF copy of their personalized Voting Instructions.

 

Holders who received ADSs pursuant to the Company’s equity rights offering that settled on February 20, 2026 in connection with the Company’s plan of reorganization filed in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings under the United Stated Bankruptcy Code (the “Chapter 11 Plan”) were delivered ADSs through their brokerage and custodian accounts, and therefore should follow the procedure described in paragraph (1) above in respect of such number of ADSs received in that manner.

 

Holders who received ADSs pursuant to the equitization of first lien and second lien claims pursuant to the Chapter 11 Plan were delivered ADS through DRS. Accordingly, unless such holders had transferred their ADSs into a brokerage or custodian account prior to the ADS Record Date, such holders should follow the procedure described in paragraph (2) above in respect of such number of ADSs received in that manner.

 

Therefore, holders of ADSs who hold through both of the manners described above would need to follow both procedures described above in order to vote the totality of their holdings of ADSs.

2.                Guidelines and Handbook for Participation in the AGM

4.                Management’s Proposal

 

Dear Sirs,

 

In view of the call, on this date, of the Annual General Meeting, to be held on April 30, 2026, at 4:00 p.m., Azul's Management hereby submits for the shareholders’ appreciation of the Management Proposal ("Proposal") with all the necessary documents and information for the evaluation and deliberation by the Shareholders of the following matters included in the Agenda of the AGM:

 

(1)              Review the managers' accounts, as well as examine, discuss and vote on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, together with the opinion issued by the Company’s independent auditors, the report of the Audit Committee and the opinion of the Fiscal Council;

 

The Management proposes the approval of the managers' accounts, as well as the examination, discussion and approval of the Company's financial statements, relating to the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2025, accompanied by the Management Report, the opinion issued by Grant Thornton Auditores Independentes Ltda., as the Company's independent auditors, the report of the Audit Committee and the opinion of the Fiscal Council and other documents provided for by applicable law and regulations, published on March 27, 2026 on the Company's Investor Relations website (ri.voeazul.com.br), as well as on the websites of CVM (https://www.gov.br/cvm/ptbr), B3 (www.b3.com.br) and US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (www.sec.gov), and published in the newspaper “Folha de São Paulo”, under the terms of the Brazilian Corporations Law.

 

We also highlight that, in accordance with article 10, item III, of CVM Resolution 81/22, the content set out in Exhibit I to this Proposal reflects the managers' Comments on the Company's financial situation, in accordance with the information required in section 2 of the Reference Form.

 

(2)              To resolve on the allocation of the results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

 

As reflected in the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, during such fiscal year, the Company recorded net income in the amount of one hundred twenty-four million, eight hundred fifty-seven thousand, four hundred eighteen reais and seventy cents (BRL 124,857,418.70). Pursuant to the applicable legislation, the Management clarifies that such net income shall be absorbed by the accumulated losses from prior fiscal years, the amount of which exceeds the aforementioned net income. As a result, the Company’s balance of accumulated losses will be reduced to thirty-four billion, six hundred ninety-three million, six hundred forty-two thousand, seven hundred five reais and fifty-nine cents (BRL 34,693,642,705.59), which amount will remain recorded under the heading “Accumulated Losses.”

 

Pursuant to Article 10, sole paragraph, item II, of CVM Resolution No. 81, Exhibit II to this Proposal contains the detailed information regarding management’s proposal for the allocation of the results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, in accordance with Exhibit A of CVM Resolution No. 81.

 

(3)              To set the annual global compensation of the Company’s managers for the 2026 fiscal.

 
 

 

The Management proposes the ordinary aggregate annual compensation of the members of the Board of Directors, the Strategy Committee and the Executive Board for the fiscal year to be ended on December 31, 2026, in the amount of thirty-nine million, fifty thousand, five hundred and twenty-six reais and thirty-nine centavos (BRL 39,050,526.39), increased by the amount related to the grants made or to be made during the 2026 fiscal year under the Company’s Restricted Share Granting Plan approved on February 12, 2026 (“2026 Plan”), as described below.

 

The Strategy Committee has the intention to carry out, throughout fiscal year 2026, the grant of the total number of options contemplated under the 2026 Plan, which provides for the grant of restricted shares or options representing up to seven percent (7%) of the Company’s share capital.

 

The amounts presented below represent the Company’s best estimate of the accounting expense related to the grants of stock options to be recognized in the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2026, and to be exercised within up to three years. The Company also informs that no restricted shares or stock options were granted in calendar year 2025, and that sixteen million, nine hundred twenty-seven thousand, six hundred ninety-nine (16,927,699) stock options, RSUs and Phantom Shares were cancelled in calendar year 2025.

As a result of the grants described above, the present proposal for global compensation shall include:

 

(i) an additional amount of up to eighty-eight million, one hundred seventy-four thousand, seven hundred thirty-seven Brazilian reais and thirty cents (BRL 88,174,737.30) related to the grant of stock options to certain members of the Board of Directors and the Strategy Committee in consideration of their roles in the effective implementation of the Reorganization Plan under the Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York; and

 

(ii) an additional amount of up to one hundred seventy-one million, seven hundred ninety-four thousand, four hundred eighty Brazilian reais and eighty-seven cents (BRL 171,794,480.87), related to grants to the other members of the Board of Directors, the Strategy Committee and the Executive Officers, a portion of which may be allocated to up to fifty (50) key employees of the Company who do not hold statutory officer positions.

 

The Company further emphasizes that the expenses to be recognized for accounting purposes in connection with the 2026 Plan do not represent cash outflows by the Company, and that the amounts described in items (i) and (ii) above will be settled through the delivery of treasury shares or the issuance of new shares by the Company, as provided for in the 2026 Plan.

 

Accordingly, considering the total amount of ordinary compensation to be paid to the Company’s management, as well as the accounting value of the equity grants under the 2026 Plan, the total amount of global annual compensation to be approved at the shareholders’ meeting amounts to two hundred ninety-nine million, nineteen thousand, seven hundred forty-four Brazilian reais and fifty-six cents (BRL 299,019,744.56).

 

We also clarify that the information necessary for the proper analysis of the proposal for the global compensation of managers for year 2026, as established in article 13, II, of CVM Resolution 81/22, is set out in Exhibit III to this Proposal, which contains the information required in section 8 of the Reference Form.

 

 
 

 

5.                Installation of the Fiscal Council

 

Although not on the Agenda of the AGM, CVM Resolution No. 77, of March 29, 2022, allows shareholders representing at least two percent (2%) of the total common shares issued by the Company to request the installation of the Fiscal Council. In this sense, by legal requirement, and considering that the term of office of the current members of the Fiscal Council ends on the date of this AGM, the Ballot contains the following simple question:

 

"Do you wish to request the installation of the Fiscal Council, under the terms of article 161 of Law No. 6,404, of 1976

[ ] Yes [ ] No [ ] Abstain"

 

The Company understands that the Strategic Committee and the Audit Committee are sufficient to adequately perform the supervisory functions that would otherwise be exercised by the Fiscal Council. These Committees are currently composed of highly qualified members recognized for their professional expertise and their mission is to ensure the operationalization and monitoring of internal and external audit procedures, mechanisms and controls related to risk management and the coherence of financial policies with strategic guidelines and the risk profile of the business, considering the applicable laws and regulations, having performed its functions adequately to date. Thus, in line with its search for a lean corporate structure and for the reasons set forth above, the Company understands that the installation of the Fiscal Council would be redundant and would represent an additional cost without providing incremental value at this time.

 

Pursuant to article 36, paragraph 2, of CVM Resolution 81/22, if there are no candidates for the Fiscal Council, the request for the installation of the Fiscal Council made through the Ballot will be null and void. Therefore, for the Fiscal Council to be installed, there must be an indication of candidates for effective and alternate members, accompanied by the information required by article 11 of CVM Resolution 81/22.

FAQ

What will Azul S.A. (AZLUD) shareholders vote on at the 2026 AGM?

Shareholders will review 2025 management accounts and financial statements, decide how to allocate 2025 results, and approve total 2026 compensation for directors, the Strategy Committee, and executive officers, including equity awards under the 2026 restricted share and stock option plan.

Did Azul S.A. (AZLUD) report a profit or loss for 2025?

Azul reported net income of BRL 124,857,418.70 for 2025, a positive result after several loss‑making years. This entire amount will be used to reduce accumulated losses from prior fiscal years, rather than being distributed as dividends or interest on equity.

Will Azul S.A. (AZLUD) pay dividends from its 2025 results?

No dividends or interest on equity will be paid from 2025 results. The full 2025 net income is being absorbed by accumulated losses from previous years, so there is no remaining amount available for distribution to shareholders under the company’s stated allocation proposal.

How large are Azul S.A.’s (AZLUD) accumulated losses after 2025?

After applying the 2025 net income, accumulated losses will be reduced to BRL 34,693,642,705.59. This very large balance reflects substantial prior‑year losses and explains why the company is not proposing dividends despite posting a profit in the latest fiscal year.

What total 2026 compensation is Azul S.A. (AZLUD) proposing for management?

Azul proposes ordinary annual cash compensation of BRL 39,050,526.39 for directors, the Strategy Committee, and executives, plus equity‑based awards under the 2026 plan. Including estimated accounting expense for these grants, total global compensation reaches BRL 299,019,744.56 for the 2026 fiscal year.

How dilutive is the 2026 equity incentive plan at Azul S.A. (AZLUD)?

The 2026 restricted share and option plan authorizes awards representing up to 7% of the company’s share capital. These grants will be settled with treasury shares or newly issued shares, meaning existing shareholders could experience dilution as awards vest and are delivered.

Can Azul S.A. (AZLUD) shareholders request a Fiscal Council at the AGM?

Yes. Shareholders holding at least 2% of common shares may request installation of a Fiscal Council under Brazilian law. Management believes existing Strategy and Audit Committees already cover oversight needs and views a Fiscal Council as redundant and an additional cost at this time.
