3 - Tax adjustments are related to tax withholding expenses that are recognized net in gross revenue. 4 - Excludes one-time non-recurring loss related to the bonds of a large corporate issuer that filed for bankruptcy.

1Q23 Retail revenue was R$2.6 billion, growing 1% vs 4Q22 and 11% vs 1Q22. Excluding the one-time loss of R$95 million from the bonds of a large corporate issuer, Retail revenue was R$2.7 billion, growing 5% and 15% QoQ and YoY, respectively.

Stronger client activity and performance of the advisory network relative to 4Q22 were the main factors driving sequential improvement, despite the still very challenging macro scenario.

Among revenue lines, Fixed Income, as expected, saw the largest spike in demand from clients while Structured Products within Equity recovered from an unusually weak 4Q22. Revenue from stocks and futures intermediation, on the other hand, followed lower market volumes and were the main negative drivers.

Retail-related revenues in 1Q23 represented 78% of consolidated Net Income from Financial Instruments, as per the Accounting Income Statement.

Take Rate

Annualized Retail Take Rate was 1.21% in 1Q23 as reported and 1.26% accounting for the one-time non-recurring loss.

Institutional Revenue

Institutional revenue was R$332 million, down 7% QoQ and 39% YoY, mostly impacted by weaker trading activity on our main product lines in the quarter. The decrease is more noticeable versus 1Q22, when market volatility boosted overall volumes in trading desks, leading to a peak in demand for hedging.

Institutional revenue in 1Q23 accounted for 7% of consolidated Net Income from Financial Instruments, as per the Accounting Income Statement.

Corporate & Issuer Services Revenue

Revenue totaled R$266 million in 1Q23, down 3% QoQ and up 7% YoY. Sequential contraction in revenue happened mainly due to weaker capital market activity in the quarter, which followed the bankruptcy of a relevant Brazilian retailer and the consequent worsening of overall corporate credit dynamics.

Corporate and Issuer Services related revenues in 1Q23 represented 7% of consolidated Net Income from Financial Instruments, as per the Accounting Income Statement.

Other Revenue

Excluding the one-time non-recurring loss of R$69 million on the quarter, Other revenue was R$227 million in 1Q23, up 46% QoQ and 37% YoY.

Other revenue in 1Q23 accounted for 8% of consolidated Net Income from Financial Instruments, as per the Accounting Income Statement.

Costs of Goods Sold and Gross Margin

Gross Margin was 65.4% in 1Q23 versus 65.1% in 4Q22 and 71.5% in 1Q22. Accounting for the non-recurring loss of R$164 million related to a single issuer, 1Q23 gross margin was 67.1%. QoQ improvement was mainly due to a more favorable product and channel mix and the absence of the one-time impacts on cards and prepaid expenses of 4Q22.

SG&A Expenses

(in R$ mn)	1Q23	1Q22	YoY	4Q22	QoQ
Total SG&A⁵	(1,045)	(1,255)	-17%	(1,377)	-24%
People	(760)	(899)	-16%	(892)	-15%
Salary and Taxes	(378)	(346)	9%	(337)	12%
Bonuses	(329)	(354)	-7%	(379)	-13%
Share Based Compensation	(53)	(200)	-73%	(176)	-70%
Non-people⁵	(285)	(355)	-20%	(485)	-41%
LTM Compensation Ratio⁶	28.5%	28.9%	-43 bps	29.5%	-107 bps
LTM Efficiency Ratio⁷	40.4%	40.1%	24 bps	42.0%	-161 bps
Headcount (EoP)	6,146	6,323	-3%	6,928	-11%

SG&A⁵ expenses totaled R$1.0 billion in 1Q23, down 24% QoQ and 17% YoY, and reflecting primarily the impact of company-wide efficiency initiatives implemented in the quarter. Because of the reduction in headcount and related Share Based Compensation forfeits, share based compensation expenses decreased relative to 4Q22 and the run rate of 2022FY.

Last twelve months compensation ratio⁶ in 1Q23 was 28.5%, an improvement from 28.9% and 29.5% in 1Q22 and 4Q22, respectively. Also, our last twelve months efficiency ratio⁷ reached 40.4% in 1Q23, compared to 40.1% and 42.0% in the same periods.

EBT

EBT was R$816 million in 1Q23, and excluding the R$160 million one-time non-recurring loss recognized in the quarter (after sales tax), EBT was R$977 million, up 32% QoQ and 14% YoY. EBT Margin, excluding the one-time nonrecurring loss, was 29.6% in the quarter, up 641 bps QoQ and 221 bps YoY, in line with our medium-term annual guidance of 26% to 32% between 2023 and 2025.

Net Income and EPS

In 1Q23, Net Income was R$796 million, up 22% QoQ and down 8% YoY. Basic and diluted EPS were R$1.48.

Excluding the R$131 million one-time non-recurring loss recognized in the quarter (after taxes), Net income was R$927 million, up 18% QoQ and 8% YoY.

Market data and industry information used throughout this release are based on management's knowledge of the industry and the good faith estimates of management. The Company also relied, to the extent available, upon management's review of industry surveys and publications and other publicly available information prepared by a number of third-party sources. All of the market data and industry information used in this release involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Although the Company believes that these sources are reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of this information, and the Company has not independently verified this information.

The contents hereof should not be construed as investment, legal, tax or other advice and you should consult your own advisers as to legal, business, tax and other related matters concerning an investment in the Company.

It will not be responsible to you for providing protections afforded to clients or for advising you on the relevant transaction.

This release includes our Float, Adjusted Gross Financial Assets, Net Asset Value, and Adjustments to Reported Net Income, which are non-GAAP financial information. We believe that such information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of the Company's operations. We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's business that, when viewed with our International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") results, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business. Further, investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures to assess operating performance and such measures may highlight trends in the Company's business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. We also believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of public companies in the Company's industry, many of which present these measures when reporting their results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of the IFRS financial statements. The non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, IFRS results. As other companies may determine or calculate this non-GAAP financial information differently, the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes is limited. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP measure is included in this release.

For purposes of this release:

"Active Clients" means the total number of retail clients served through our XP Investimentos, Rico, Clear, XP Investments and XP Private (Europe) brands, with Client Assets above R$100.00 or that have transacted at least once in the last thirty days. For purposes of calculating this metric, if a client holds an account in more than one of the aforementioned entities, such client will be counted as one "active client" for each such account. For example, if a client holds an account in each of XP Investimentos and Rico, such client will count as two "active clients" for purposes of this metric.

"Client Assets" means the market value of all client assets invested through XP's platform and that is related to reported Retail Revenue, including equities, fixed income securities, mutual funds (including those managed by XP Gestão de Recursos Ltda., XP Advisory Gestão de Recursos Ltda. and XP Vista Asset Management Ltda., as well as by third-party asset managers), pension funds (including those from XP Vida e Previdência S.A., as well as by third-party insurance companies), exchange traded funds, COEs (Structured Notes), REITs, and uninvested cash balances (Float Balances), among others. Although Client Assets includes custody from Corporate Clients that generate Retail Revenue, it does not include custody from institutional clients (asset managers, pension funds and insurance companies).

Rounding

We have made rounding adjustments to some of the figures included in this release. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that preceded them.

Float, Adjusted Gross Financial Assets and Net Asset Value

(in R$ mn)

We present Adjusted Gross Financial Assets because we believe this metric captures the liquidity that is, in fact, available to us, net of the portion of liquidity that is related to our Float Balance (and therefore attributable to clients). We calculate Adjusted Gross Financial Assets as the sum of (1) Cash and Financial Assets (comprised of Cash plus Securities – Fair value through profit or loss, plus Securities – Fair value through other comprehensive income, plus Securities – Evaluated at amortized cost, plus Derivative financial instruments, plus Securities (purchased under agreements to resell), plus Loans and Foreign exchange portfolio (assets) less (2) Financial Liabilities (comprised of the sum of Securities loaned, Derivative financial instruments, Securities sold under repurchase agreements and Private pension liabilities), Deposits, Structured Operation Certificates (COE), Financial Bills, Foreign exchange portfolio (liabilities), Credit cards operations and (3) less Float Balance.

It is a measure that we track internally daily, and it more intuitively reflects the effect of the operational profits we generate and the variations between working capital assets and liabilities (cash flows from operating activities), investments in fixed and intangible assets and investments in the IFA Network (cash flows from investing activities) and inflows and outflows related to equity and debt securities in our capital structure (cash flows from financing activities). Our management treats all securities and financial instrument assets, net of financial instrument liabilities, as balances that compose our total liquidity, with subline items (such as, for example, "securities at fair value through profit and loss" and "securities at fair value through other comprehensive income") expected to fluctuate substantially from quarter to quarter as our treasury manages and allocates our total liquidity to the most suitable financial instruments.

In order to explain how we measure our cash position or generation internally, we are introducing the Net Asset Value concept. Since we are a financial institution, we hold several types of financial instruments with different characteristics, hence the definition of net cash that makes more sense from a business perspective is the Net Asset Value. It is basically the adjusted gross financial assets net of debt instruments.
