Thank you, Rafa. Thank you all for joining us today to discuss our second quarter results for 2026. I want to start with something that is truly meaningful for Inter. Back in May, at our Honors Day, we introduced the Rule of 50 as our long-term plan, proving that growth and profitability are not a trade-off, but a combination we can deliver together. And here we are, just one quarter after announcing the plan, And the rule of 50 is already a reality. Total net revenue grew 32%. ROE reached over 16%. We are already executing the plan. The rule of 50 does not stand alone. It is built on top of our 60-30-30 North Star. The goal of 60 million clients, 30% efficiency ratio and 30% ROE. That compass continues to guide everything we do. The trend on this chart reflects years of disciplined capital allocation, high growth, and consistent execution, supported by a solid balance sheet. But results like these don't happen by accident. Delivering the Rule of Fifty is only possible because of our Inter-by-Design approach. It combines three reinforcing pillars. Sustainable revenue growth, scalable distribution capabilities, and unique cost efficiencies. And that compounding effect is what you see in our numbers. We tripled our revenue growth while simultaneously doubling our active client base, meaning we are getting more engaged clients. We are doing all of this while improving our efficiency ratio by 32 percentage points and expanding ROE by 18 percentage points as well. Growth and profitability moving in the same direction at the same time. That is what Interbike Design produces. And when this flywheel runs at full speed, the natural consequence is market share gains across every product and segment. That is what I want to show you next. More clients bring more transactions. More transactions bring more data. Better data drives better products and smarter credit decisions. Better products attract even more clients. And the cycle keeps compounding. That is what the flywheel concept means for Inter. And what makes our flywheel particularly powerful is the breadth of our ecosystem. The more products we offer across more verticals, the more entry points we create for clients, and the faster the cycle spins. Whether you look at PICs, credit cards, investments, or home equity, our market share numbers are climbing across the board, faster than many of the most important We are not just grown, we are grown in every segment, at the same time, but with discipline. That's the strength of our ecosystem, and it's only getting stronger. This flywheel guides not just how we grow, but also where we choose to grow. The opportunity in front of us is bigger than ever. Because we are actively deepening and widening our addressable market. Our core is security lending. That was a deliberate choice from the start. Mortgages, home equity and payroll, for instance. Nearly 82% of secured personal loans in Brazil are still concentrated in the top 5 players. That is massive, underpenetrated market And we have the distribution, the product experience, the data, and the cost structure to keep gaining market share. But we are not stopping there. We are widening into unsecured as well. And we are doing it carefully, with discipline, and the results are already showing up. For the first time ever, we surpassed 2% market share in credit cards TPV We have never been more profitable in this product than we are today. In summary, secured loans remains our foundation, strong asset quality, stable returns, resilient through different credit cycles. And, on top of that, unsecured credit, such as credit card, And now, to conclude, as you can see on page 9, I would like to highlight three important milestones for our company. Number one, On gaining scale, for the first time ever, we reached over R$ 100 billion in total assets. Second, on expanding margins, for the first time, we crossed double-digit NIMS. And third, on creating value, for the first time, we surpassed capital neutrality. Meaning, our business now generates more capital than it consumes to grow, even in a fast pace of growth. These are not just milestones, they are proof that the model we have been building with discipline, consistency and ambition is delivering real results for our shareholders. Now, Shange & Sante will bring this story to life. Thank you, João, and good morning everyone. Let's now dive into our second quarter operational results. We reached 45.3 million clients, and over the last 12 months,

Added 3.7 million new active clients. But the size of our base is not the main story here. The quality of it is. We have been deliberate about how we grow, being more selective, prioritizing clients that engage faster. That means a sharper focus on ARPAC growth, building a stronger and more profitable base. And the strategy is showing up directly into our numbers. Our new cohorts are starting with an initial ARPAC approximately R$10 higher than older cohorts. A key driver of ARPAC growth is credit penetration. As clients deepen their relationship with Inter and adopt credit products, their monetization increases significantly Private payroll is a great example of this, and I'll explore this subject later. We also see evidence of engagement in the behavior of our clients overall. We averaged 22 million daily logins this quarter, up from 18 million a year ago. These clients are not only active, they're truly engaged and bringing primary relationships to Inter. And that engagement It's translating directly into monetization while we keep our cost to serve flat. Our PAC goes up, CTS stays stable, the gap is what drives margin expansion. And the results speak for themselves. Margin per active client just reached its best level ever. This is the financial outcome of everything I just described. Better clients, deeper relationships, higher credit penetration, It compounds quarter after quarter. This engagement we talked about also translates into transaction volume. Our cards and picks TPV reached 1.8 trillion on a run rate basis. TPV is growing faster than our client base, an evidence of deeper relationships. True market share numbers tell this story best. First, we now hold approximately 9% of all PIX transactions in Brazil, and we are still expanding, growing 31 basis points over the past year. Second, for the first time ever, we crossed 2% market share in credit card TPV, as João mentioned earlier. Our new cohorts are starting at an engagement level that's higher than ever before. The flywheel is not just working, it's accelerating. Now I want to deep dive into two of our hero credit products, credit cards and private payroll loans. Santi will cover the full portfolio performance later, but I want to give you the strategic view on both. Starting with credit cards and our reshaping strategy, the thesis is simple. Shift our portfolio towards more interest earning balances. More installment usage, better monetization, bringing higher revenues. Our interest earning portfolio keeps growing as a share of the total and now stands for 26% of the credit card book. The interest income of this product grew 64% year over year. And here is a key message. Interest income is growing faster than provisions. A larger interest earning portfolio does come with more provisioning. That's expected, and we're comfortable with it. But the income is outpacing the costs, and the margins are expanding. We maintain our discipline in this strategy, growing the right balances with the right clients at the right time. Now, let me turn to private payroll loans. We maintain our confidence in the product and its fit to our platform. It generates strong revenue expansion. It scales to our own distribution. And it is efficient to originate and serve. That's exactly the kind of product we want more of. In the second quarter, we surpassed 600,000 clients with private payroll loans. These clients have an ARPAC that's 3.7 times that of our average, making it a true principality and monetization accelerator. There are operational improvements in progress, and we're managing through them with discipline. But we believe the product will only get better as Dataprez introduces new features such as automatic employee relinkage. We're growing and we believe we're doing it at the right pace, building a proprietary portfolio that will be healthy and profitable for the long term and that will strengthen principality. The next step is already coming. Insurance launches in August. We estimate that insurance adoption can reduce provisions and increase fee revenues, a meaningful improvement in the product's overall performance. I will now talk about business accounts, a significant opportunity we have in front of us. We reached 2.9 million business clients, growing 24% year over year. Our market penetration is already at 12% in these types of accounts. Business clients generate 2.8 times the ARPAC of our average client. We have built a complete suite of products for businesses, including payments, investments, acquiring, cards, and credit. The electronic trade invoice, as a collateral, or as called in Portuguese, Duplicato Cultural, The more products a business client uses, the more they consolidate their financial transactions at Inter. This is the same flywheel we see on the retail side, now on the business account side. Now let me shift to another important dimension of our business, fee income. Credit is a powerful engine of our results. But what makes Inter truly unique is that we have seven verticals that reinforce each other and, together, generate a fee income base that is diversified and resilient. We have two engines that will drive future growth. On the commission side, We're launching subscription plans, giving clients the opportunity to upgrade to our won, prime, and win segments and unlock more benefits. We are also expanding our investment advisory services for higher income clients. And we just launched InterAds, a new ads monetization layer in our app with significant potential ads. On the credit-related fees, Interchange is accelerating as our credit card TPV crosses the 2% market share for the first time and keeps outpacing debit. Interpag will resume growth as we mature the company and leverage the products amongst our business clients. and Private Payroll Loans Credit Insurance will add a meaningful new fee revenue stream to a product that is already profitable on the credit side. These are not just plans. They are initiatives already in motion and together they are what will bring fee income growth back to the pace we want to see. The reason we're confident that fee income will accelerate is not just Because of the initiatives I just described. It is the distribution power behind them. As seen on this slide, multiple products across our seven verticals have already surpassed the mark of one million active clients. But what is even more remarkable is the speed. Each new product is reaching that milestone faster than the one before it. This is what distribution at scale looks like. When you have 26 million active clients who log in 22 million times a day, launching a new product is not starting from zero. It is dropping a new solution into one of the most engaged financial ecosystems in Brazil. Clients are ready to adopt And they are doing it faster every time. That is the compounding power of our flywheel. And that's what gives us the confidence that the fee income initiatives are going to gain traction quickly. With that, I'll hand it over to Santi for the financial performance.
