News Summary:

On September 1, 2026, Vivo put a portfolio of 47 properties in São Paulo up for sale, advised by Cushman & Wakefield. The assets, primarily old telephone exchanges with an estimated value of approximately R$ 600 million, lost operational relevance following the evolution of telecommunications infrastructure and the migration from copper networks to optical fiber. Previously, on August 13, 2026, Vivo announced a 14-year strategic partnership with SABESP, São Paulo's water and sanitation company, and IDEMIA Secure Transactions. This initiative, described as the world’s largest Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity project for smart water management, aims to securely connect 4.4 million smart water meters in São Paulo City and São José dos Campos. Vivo's connectivity expertise, combined with IDEMIA Secure Transactions' eSIM IoT technology, will help SABESP optimize its water distribution network and detect leaks.
