🧾 What This Document Is

This is a 6-K filing, which is a current report used by foreign companies listed on U.S. exchanges like StoneCo to announce major events to investors. This specific report shares the official voting results from their 2026 Annual General Meeting (AGM). Think of it as the company's formal "show & tell" to prove that shareholders approved the items on the agenda.

🏢 Quick Reminder: What StoneCo Does

👉 In simple terms, StoneCo is a Brazilian financial technology ("fintech") company. It provides the technology that lets small and medium-sized businesses accept payments (like credit card machines), manage their money with banking services, and get loans. They help these merchants run and grow their businesses.

💰 The Main Event: Voting Results

All the proposed items on the ballot were approved by shareholders. This includes two main categories:

1. Financials Check: Shareholders formally signed off on the company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. This is a standard but important audit approval. 2. Board Elections: The entire slate of directors up for election or re-election were voted back onto the board.

👥 The Boardroom Shuffle (or Lack Thereof)

Shareholders re-elected eight existing directors to continue their service:

• Mauricio Luis Luchetti
• Gilberto Caldart
• Luciana Ibiapina Lira Aguiar
• Diego Fresco Gutiérrez
• Silvio José Morais
• José Alexandre Scheinkman
• Antonio Silveira
• Luis Henrique Cals de Beauclair Guimarães

Two new directors were elected to join the board:

• Pedro Zinner
• Marcelo Kopel

👉 Why it matters: The board of directors oversees the company's management and strategy. Re-electing most directors signals stability and shareholder confidence in the current direction. Adding two new members suggests a refresh or expansion of skills on the board.

📅 Key Dates & Contact

• AGM Date: The meeting was held on April 23, 2026.
• Fiscal Year Covered: The approved financials are for the year ending December 31, 2025.
• Investor Contact: The company's investor relations email is [email protected].

⚖️ What This Signals: Stability & Continuity

👍 Strength: The unanimous approval of all items, especially the financial statements and the entire board, is a show of strong support. It means there were no major shareholder revolts or controversial items that failed. This smooth governance is a positive sign of internal alignment.

⚠️ Note: While stability is good, the lack of change can also mean a lack of new strategic direction from the shareholder base. The introduction of two new directors will be a point of interest to see what fresh perspective they bring.

🧠 The Analogy

Think of this filing like the publicly released minutes from a school's annual parent-teacher association (PTA) meeting. Everyone agreed on the budget from last year, and they voted to keep most of the existing board members, while welcoming two new parents to join the team. It shows everything is running smoothly and with broad support.

🧩 Final Takeaway

StoneCo's shareholders have given a clean bill of health to the 2025 financials and have endorsed both the continuity and a slight refresh of the company's board of directors. This filing is all about confirming stability and moving forward with an approved plan and team.
