12 Commitments

Gas supply

Natural gas supply contracts have specific characteristics, including minimum withdrawal obligations by the Company (take-or-pay for the commodity and ship-or-pay for transportation). If the Company consumes volumes below the contracted minimums, it is required to pay the difference between the consumed volume and the minimum contracted volumes, with the possibility of offsetting such differences through additional consumption during the contract term, provided that consumption exceeds the minimum contracted amount.

Additionally, the contracts allow for the recovery of any accumulated volume. Based on consumption projections and current contractual conditions, management estimates that it will be possible to fully recover the volumes accumulated to date, considering that, during the recovery period, no new accumulations related to the minimum commitments for that period will occur.

Given the recoverable nature of these rights, amounts paid but not used are recognized as an asset under ‘Unused transportation.’ Management applies significant estimates and judgments to assess the recoverability of these volumes, taking into account demand projections, market conditions, and consumption history, which are subject to periodic review and may be adjusted in future periods depending on economic and operational circumstances.

Considering the current gas supply contracts, the subsidiaries have financial commitments totaling an estimated present value of R$22,926,446.
