Rhea-AI Filing Summary

XP Inc. filed a Form 6-K to supplement its 2026 proxy materials for the annual general meeting on May 29, 2026. The company removed the proposal to reappoint Oscar Rodriguez Herrero as a director after he voluntarily withdrew his candidacy, stating his decision was not due to any disagreement with the company or its board.

Mr. Rodriguez Herrero will resign from the board effective May 29, 2026. The board approved appointing current director Melissa Werneck to the Audit Committee, subject to her reelection at the meeting, and determined she meets Nasdaq and SEC independence and financial literacy requirements. The board also approved José Luiz Majolo as an independent interim director and as chair of the Risks, Credit and ESG Committee from May 29, 2026 until the 2027 annual meeting.

The proxy supplement reduces the number of director nominees from nine to eight. Existing proxy cards remain valid, and any votes cast for Mr. Rodriguez Herrero will be disregarded while all other proposals and recommendations in the original proxy statement remain unchanged.

Report of Foreign Private Issuer regulatory
"FORM 6-K REPORT OF FOREIGN PRIVATE ISSUER PURSUANT TO RULE 13a-16"
A report of a foreign private issuer is a formal filing that a non‑U.S. company makes to U.S. regulators to share important business, financial, or governance information with American investors. Think of it as a regular update or press packet that keeps investors informed about events that could change a company’s value—like earnings, management changes, contracts, or regulatory developments—so investors can make timely, informed decisions.
Proxy Statement regulatory
"This supplement (the “Proxy Supplement”) to the proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) dated May 6, 2026"
A proxy statement is a document companies send to shareholders ahead of a meeting that lays out the items up for a vote—like who will sit on the board, executive pay, and major corporate decisions—and provides background so shareholders can decide how to cast their votes or appoint someone to vote for them. Think of it as an agenda plus a ballot and briefing notes, important because the outcomes can change control, strategy, and value.
Audit Committee financial
"appointment of Ms. Melissa Werneck, a current director, to the Audit Committee of the Board"
A company's audit committee is a small group of board members who act like independent inspectors for the firm's finances, overseeing how financial reports are prepared, monitoring internal controls, and managing the relationship with external auditors. Investors care because a strong audit committee reduces the risk of accounting errors, fraud, or misleading statements, making financial statements more trustworthy and helping protect shareholder value.
Nasdaq listing standards regulatory
"independent under the director independence standards set forth in the applicable listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market"
Nasdaq listing standards are the set of rules a company must meet to be admitted to and remain on the Nasdaq stock market, covering financial thresholds (like minimum share price and earnings), reporting and disclosure, and board and governance practices. They matter to investors because meeting these standards signals a baseline of financial health and transparency, reduces the risk of sudden delisting, and helps ensure a market with enough buyers and sellers—like a safety checklist that keeps the trading venue orderly and trustworthy.
Risks, Credit and ESG Committee financial
"appointment of Mr. Majolo as member and Chair of the Risks, Credit and ESG Committee of the Board"

Mr. Rodriguez Herrero’s decision to withdraw is not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board. Accordingly, the number of director nominees for consideration has been reduced from nine (9) to eight (8). Other than Mr. Rodriguez Herrero’s withdrawal, the matters to be considered by shareholders at the AGM remain unchanged from those described in the Proxy Statement.

The Board continues to recommend a vote “FOR” each of the remaining nominees as set forth in the Proxy Statement.

The proxy card or voting instruction form initially distributed with the Proxy Statement remains valid. Any votes or voting instructions cast for Mr. Rodriguez Herrero’s election to the Board will be disregarded.

If you have already voted, you are not required to take any action, unless you would like to change your vote. Your previously submitted proxy will be voted at the AGM in the same manner as you instructed previously, except that any votes for the re-election of Mr. Rodriguez Herrero to the Board will be disregarded. If you have already voted and submit a new proxy, your new proxy will supersede the one you previously submitted. Except as described in this Proxy Supplement, the Proxy Statement and previously distributed proxy materials remain in effect.
