Research Update: AXIA Energia S.A. 'BB' Ratings Affirmed; Outlook Remains Stable June 2, 2026 Rating Action Overview • AXIA EnergiaS.A. (formerly Eletrobras) has strengthened its governance profile and mitigated institutional risks by reaching an agreement with thegovernment and simplifying its corporate structure. • Therefore, on June 2, 2026, S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'BB' issuercredit and issue-level ratings on AXIA. And we revised upward our assessment of the company's management and governance (M&G). •The outlook remains stable and reflects our expectations that AXIA will complete its R$13 billion – R$14 billion investment thisyear despite energy price volatility, while reducing net debt to EBITDA to the low-4.0x area in 2027 from 4.7x in 2025 and maintainingFFO to debt of 16%–17% in the next two years. Rating Action Rationale Improved governance framework and legal certainty mitigateinstitutional risks. Since its privatization in 2022, the company has focused on corporate derisking through the settlement of legal andenvironmental issues, the simplification of its corporate structure through mergers and acquisitions, and the enhancement of internalcontrols, such as the succession plan for CEO Ivan Monteiro. These factors support the company's operational stability and strategic continuity.In addition, the Federal Supreme Court's December 2025 approval of the agreement between AXIA and the federal government has resolveddisputes between both parties. The agreements sets boundaries against the government's interference by ratifying its voting cap to 10%and raising the board's composition to 10 members—including three government appointees and one Fiscal Council member--from ninemembers with two government appointees. Furthermore, as part of the settlement, AXIA is no longer bound to fund the construction of theAngra III nuclear power plant, it can divest its stake in Eletronuclear, while retaining only limited financial commitments to the AngraI plant, currently capped at approximately R$2.4 billion. (AXIA agreed to sell its stake in Eletronuclear to Ambar Energia in October2025, although the final Primary Contact Bruno Ferreira, CFA Sao Paulo 55-11-3039-9798 Bruno.Ferreira @spglobal.com Additional ContactsFlavia M Bedran Sao Paulo 55-11-3039-9758 flavia.bedran @spglobal.com Julyana Yokota Sao Paulo 55-11-3039-9731 julyana.yokota @spglobal.comwww.spglobal.com/ratingsdirect June 2, 2026 1 closing is still pending.) As a result, we have revised our M&G score for AXIA to neutralfrom moderately negative. We believe these governance enhancements and legal certainty provide greater room for the company to executeits strategic objectives, limiting the government's ability to interfere in the company's operations. Substantial investment requirementswill pressure free cash flow. AXIA is entering an intensive investment cycle, given its focus on expanding its transmission footprintfollowing auction wins between 2022 and 2025, enhancing its transmission network to increase permitted revenue, and modernizing its hydroplants. We project capital expenditure (capex) to rise from R$7.4 billion in 2025 to R$13 billion - R$14 billion in 2026, around R$12billion in 2027, and stabilize at between R$9 billion and R$10 billion starting in 2028. Although we expect AXIA to continue accessingcapital markets to fund its investments and for refinancing purposes, we expect the company to finance part of the capex with its owncash flow--thanks to stable cash generation in its transmission and generation segments—and through lower dividend distributionsin 2026. Consequently, we expect leverage to drop from 4.7x in 2025 to mid-4.0x in 2026 and low-4.0x in 2027, while FFO to net debt toremain stable at 15%–18% for the next two years. However, starting in 2028, we anticipate debt to EBITDA will rise to the 4.5x–5.0xrange, following the end of the R$5.5 billion RBSE revenue flow. The RBSE (Rede Básica do Sistema Existente) payments are indemnificationpayments for the nondepreciated portion of transmission assets renewed under Law 12,783/2013. Conversely, we expect FFO to debt to slightlynarrow to the 14%–15% range, given our projection of declining interest rates. A disciplined capital allocation will be key to stablecredit quality. Throughout this period, we expect the company to maintain a disciplined approach to capital allocation, balancing largescaleinfrastructure capex with shareholder returns. AXIA can do so through mechanisms such as stock bonuses, ensuring that its investmentsdon't compromise liquidity. We forecast cash dividends of up to R$3.3 billion in 2026, down from R$12.3 billion in 2025. We believe disciplinedcapital allocation stems from the company's financial policy, through which it plans investments and dividend distributions during thefive-year horizon, considering 3.0x-3.5x leverage in the generation business and 3.75x-4.25x leverage in the transmission business. Thesenumbers diverge from our estimates, because we make the following debt adjustments for AXIA as of March 31, 2026: • R$3.6 billionin pension plan deficits; • R$18.3 billion in financial guarantees provided to equity affiliates; and • R$39.1 billion in contributionsto the Energy Development Account (CDE). The rating on AXIA's bond is 'BB', the same as the issuer credit rating. However, pressure onthe bonds' structural subordination is increasing due to the rising amount of debt at the subsidiary level. Free-market migration andtransmission stability support cash flow resilience. Despite AXIA's lower free cash flow due to large investments, we expect operatingcash generation to remain resilient thanks to the gradual migration from the quota-regime hydropower capacity to the free market and morefavorable contracting conditions. The company continues to unlock value through the transition of energy volumes to the free market whilemaintaining a disciplined contracting strategy amid market volatility. In addition, AXIA will retain meaningful contracting flexibilityfor 2027 and 2028, given that more than 23% of its capacity will remain uncontracted in those years. The transmission business, whichwe expect will contribute more than 50% of www.spglobal.com/ratingsdirect June 2, 2026 2 AXIA Energia S.A. 'BB' Ratings Affirmed; OutlookRemains Stable EBITDA in the next two years, provides stable and inflation-linked cash flow that supports earnings visibility. AlthoughRBSE revenue will decline beginning in 2028, we believe transmission investments should partially offset this headwind. Outlook The stableoutlook is underpinned by AXIA's position as the nation's largest electricity utility and its predictable cash flow, with power transmissioncontributing over 50% of EBITDA. We expect the company to complete its investments—nearly R$14 billion in 2026 and R$12 billionin 2027— while it benefits from high, albeit volatile, energy prices. Consequently, we expect leverage to decrease from 4.7x in2025 to the mid-4.0x area in 2026 and the low-4.0x area in 2027, with FFO to net debt to remain steady at 16%–17% for the next twoyears. Downside scenario We could lower our ratings on AXIA in the next 12 months if we lower the rating on Brazil. Otherwise, we coulddowngrade the company given weaker operational performance, failure to capture efficiencies and settle additional contingencies especiallyrelated to the compulsory loan, leading to debt to EBITDA consistently above 5.5x and FFO to debt below 9%. That could happen, for instance,in a scenario of persistently low energy prices, while the company increases its investments and engages in debt-financed acquisitionswithout offsetting cash flow, or if AXIA pursues a more aggressive dividend payout. Upside scenario An upgrade of AXIA within the next12 months would require an upgrade of Brazil and an improvement in AXIA's stand-alone credit profile (SACP). The latter could occur ifthe company further derisks its balance sheet through corporate simplification and the settlement of contingencies. Additionally, an upgradewould depend on faster-than-expected deleveraging, specifically maintaining adjusted debt to EBITDA below 4.0x (notwithstanding the RBSErevenue loss), maintaining FFO to adjusted debt above 18%, and generating free operating cash flow. Company Description AXIA Energia isBrazil's largest integrated electricity utility, with adjusted revenue of R$42.6 billion and EBITDA of R$26.3 billion in the 12 monthsended March 31, 2026. It operates in the power generation and transmission segments, with roughly 44 gigawatts (GW) in installed capacityand 74,829 kilometers (km) of transmission lines. Since the privatization in June 2022, the government has 10% of voting rights (downfrom 72%) and 40.8% of total shares (down from 61% directly and indirectly). As a result, AXIA became a corporation with dispersed ownershipand no controlling shareholder. Our Base-Case Scenario Assumptions • Brazil's GDP to grow 1.6% in 2026, 2.1% in 2027, and 2.2% in2028, according to our report: "Economic Outlook Emerging Markets Q2 2026: Inflation Risks Reemerge," published March 25, 2026. www.spglobal.com/ratingsdirectJune 2, 2026 3 AXIA Energia S.A. 'BB' Ratings Affirmed; Outlook Remains Stable • Brazil's average inflation of 4.5% in 2026, 3.9%in 2027, and 3.6% in 2028. • The Brazilian central bank's average policy interest rates at 14.1% in 2026 and 11% in 2027. •Annual migration of hydropower plants' 1.3 GW of assured energy to an independent regime, completing the transition by mid-2027. •A generation scaling factor (GSF) of 85% starting in 2026, based on the reservoirs' adequate capacity. • Following the sale of itsthermal plants, AXIA's assured energy volume, including quota regime capacity, of 21,400 megawatts (MW) in the next few years. That andthe GSF determine energy sale volumes. • Energy purchases of about 1,500 MW in 2026, and between 900 MW and 1,200 MW starting in2027, along with power sales in the regulated and free markets. • Average spot price at R$180 per megawatt hour (MWh) in 2026 andbeyond. • Gross transmission revenue of R$20.1 billion in 2026, R$21.5 billion in 2027, and R$18.9 billion in 2028. These amountsinclude roughly R$5.5 billion in annual compensation for nondepreciated transmission assets, which will end in the 2027-2028 RAP cycle.• Capex of R$13 billion - R$14 billion in 2026, around R$12 billion in 2027, and between R$9 billion and R$10 billion in 2028. •Cash disbursements related to the compulsory loan, between R$3.0 billion and R$3.5 billion annually in 2026-2028. • Contributionsto the CDE and for the revitalization of river basins, in line with the privatization requirements, of R$3.7 billion in 2026, R$2.4 billionin 2027, and R$3.9 billion in 2028. • Dividend payout of 50% related to previous year’s net income.

R$--Brazilian real. Liquidity We continue assessingAXIA' liquidity as adequate. We expect the company's sources of liquidity to exceed its uses by more than 20% in the next 12 months thanksto robust cash position of R$27.7 billion in the first quarter of 2026, despite higher capex, interest expenses, and dividends. We expectthe company to continue accessing capital and debt markets to finance its investments and for liability management. In our view, thisis possible thanks to AXIA's sound relationships with banks and high standing in credit markets, as shown by roughly R$30 billion in debtissuances in 2024 and R$8 billion in 2025. Principal liquidity sources Principal liquidity uses • Cash and equivalents of R$27.7billion as of March 31, 2026; • Cash FFO of around R$5.5 billion in the next 12 months from March 31, net of legal payments and CDEcontributions; and • Sales of assets already contracted, totaling more than R$1 billion. • Short-term debt maturities of R$11.1billion as of March 31, 2026; • Intra-year working capital outflows of R$1.0 billion in the next 12 months; • Capex of R$13.2billion; and • Dividend distribution of R$2.9 billion, assuming a 50% payout. Covenants www.spglobal.com/ratingsdirect June 2, 20266 AXIA Energia S.A. 'BB' Ratings Affirmed; Outlook Remains Stable The most restrictive financial covenant that the company must complywith is maximum net debt to adjusted EBITDA of 3.75x, although recent issuances have a 4.25x threshold. A covenant breach would resultin a nonautomatic event of default, requiring a waiver from creditors to not accelerate debt payment. This is measured on an annual basisin December, and the calculation methodology is different from our estimate because financial metrics related to the debt exclude guaranteesprovided to unconsolidated projects, CDE payments, and pension-related liabilities that we adjust in our analysis. In addition, the financialcovenants' EBITDA includes financial assets related to transmission concessions. Therefore, our estimates are separate from our expectationof the company's covenant compliance. We think AXIA will comply with this covenant with cushion above 20% in 2026 and 2027. Environmental,Social, And Governance We now assess governance aspects as neutral for AXIA, considering the approval from the Supreme Federal Court ofthe agreement between the company and the government, formalizing the voting limit and the government's involvement in AXIA's operations,which limits negative government interference. In addition, we see company is evolving in the de-risking process, including settlementof contingencies, simplification of corporate structure and advancing on governance matters, as an example of the CEO succession process,supporting the continuity of the company’s current strategy. Environmental factors are a negative consideration in our credit analysisof AXIA because most of its generation capacity is exposed to hydrological risks. Social factors are a neutral consideration in our analysisof the company, since health and safety issues related to nuclear plants are no longer its responsibility. Control of Eletronuclear wastransferred to ENBPar, a government-owned entity. Government Influence We view AXIA's likelihood of receiving extraordinary support fromthe government as high, considering the company's position as the largest electricity generation and transmission utility in Brazil. Thisreflects its critical role and strong link to the government, which remains a major shareholder. Given the company's agreement with thegovernment, we currently see limited incentives for direct interference in AXIA's operations. The company remains a critical player inBrazil's electricity sector, and any operational underperformance could have significant implications for the national power system andthe economy. Issue Ratings--Subordination Risk Analysis Capital structure See our ratings on AXIA's senior unsecured notes in the tablebelow. As of March 31, 2026, AXIA reported R$73.5 billion of debt, of which R$14.4 billion was secured and R$20.5 billion is unsecureddebt under subsidiaries. www.spglobal.com/ratingsdirect June 2, 2026 7 AXIA Energia S.A. 'BB' Ratings Affirmed; Outlook Remains StableIssue Maturity Rating 4.625% $750 million notes February 2030 BB 6.5% $750 million notes January 2035 BB Analytical conclusions Our ratingson the senior unsecured debts are at the same level as the issuer credit rating because debt issued by subsidiaries is mostly unsecuredand guaranteed by the holding company, AXIA. The company's priority debt ratio is slightly below 50% of its consolidated debt. However,should AXIA issue significant additional debt at the subsidiary level, we may notch down the debt issued at the holding company level.In such a scenario, unsecured creditors at the holding level would be at a relative disadvantage compared to secured creditors and thecreditors of the operating subsidiaries because of structural subordination. Priority debt ratio is defined as (total secured debt inthe issuer's consolidated capital structure plus total unsecured debt issued by an issuer's subsidiaries) divided by total consolidateddebt.
