In January 2026, the Company paid USD 12,210 in connection with certain uncertain income tax positions in Peru, as explained in note 8 (c). Of this amount, USD 8,319 was recognized as “Tax claim payments” within “Other assets”.

In June 2026, the Company made an additional payment of USD 130,577 in connection with uncertain income tax positions in Peru related to the 2014-2017 tax periods, as explained in note 8 (c). Of this amount, USD 79,009 was recognized as “Tax claim payments” within “Other assets”.

On March 4, 2026, the Company entered into an Export Prepayment Loan agreement (“ACC”) for a principal amount of USD 40,000, at an annual rate of 4.69%. The loan matures in 6 months and is repayable in a single installment upon submission of the supporting export documentation. Further information regarding this transaction is disclosed in note 16.

(d) Silver streaming agreement

During the second quarter of 2026, Nexa UK achieved the cumulative delivery commitment of 19.5 million ounces established under the silver streaming arrangement. Consequently, the percentage of silver contained in the concentrates produced by the Cerro Lindo mining unit subject to the streaming arrangement was reduced from 65% to 25%, in accordance with the contractual terms, effective from May 2026.

Upon reaching the contractual threshold, the Company began accounting for the streaming arrangement based on the revised silver delivery percentage. The deferred revenue balance will continue to be recognized prospectively over the remaining term of the agreement.

(e) Iran conflict impacts on the Company´s financial statements and operations

Ongoing geopolitical tensions involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, have significantly heightened security concerns and increased global economic uncertainty. On June 18, 2026, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the US and Iran intended to end active hostilities and launch a 60-day negotiation process to work toward a more comprehensive settlement was announced. The MOU has only been partially effective and has been under severe strain. There have been renewed US and Iranian military strikes and no major objectives of the MOU have been achieved.

Consequently, the geopolitical landscape remains uncertain. In this context, Nexa conducted an initial cross-functional assessment, incorporating inputs from Supply Chain, Market Intelligence, Commercial, and Strategic Planning, to monitor potential impacts on energy supply, logistics, and macroeconomic conditions, and to evaluate contingency measures for implementation, if necessary.

As of the date of this report, the Company has not identified any material impacts on its operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, the Company cannot predict the potential future impact of conflict on its business and operation and continues to closely monitor the situation.

2 Information by business segment
--- ---

Segment performance is assessed based on Adjusted EBITDA, since net financial results, comprising financial income and expenses and other financial items, and income tax are managed at the corporate level and are not allocated to operating segments.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as follows: net income (loss) for the year/period, adjusted by (i) share in the results of associates, depreciation and amortization, net financial results and income tax; (ii) addition of cash dividends received from associates; (iii) non-cash events and non-cash gains or losses that do not specifically reflect its operational performance for the specific period, such as: gain (loss) on sale of investments; impairment and impairment reversals; gain (loss) on sale of long-lived assets; write-offs of long-lived assets; remeasurement in estimates of asset retirement obligations; and other restoration obligations; and (iv) pre-operating and ramp-up expenses incurred during the commissioning and ramp-up phases of greenfield projects.

In addition, management may adjust the effect of certain types of transactions that in its judgments are (i) events that are non-recurring, unusual or infrequent, and (ii) other specific events that, by their nature and scope, do not reflect NEXA’s operational performance for the year/period.

The Adjusted EBITDA is derived from internal information prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Accounting Standards”) and based on accounting measurements and management reclassifications between income statement lines items, which are reconciled to the consolidated financial statements in the column “Adjustments”, as shown in the tables below. These adjustments include reclassifications of certain overhead costs and revenues from “Other income and expenses, net” to “Net Revenues, Cost of sales and/or Selling”, “General and administrative expenses”.

The Company uses customary market terms for intersegment sales. The Company’s corporate headquarters expenses are allocated to the operating segments to the extent they are included in the measures of performance used by the Chief operating decision maker (CODM).

The presentation of segment results and reconciliation to income before income tax in the consolidated income statement is as follows:

(i) This amount represents the change in the fair value of the offtake agreement disclosed in note 10 (e), which is being measured at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). This change in fair value is a non-cash item and has not been considered in the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA calculation.

(ii) This amount corresponds to the change in fair value and any adjustment of the energy surplus arising from electric energy purchase contracts of NEXA’s subsidiary, Pollarix and Nexa Energy Comercializadora de Energia Ltda, as disclosed in note 10 (d). This change in fair value is a non-cash item and has been excluded from the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA calculation.

3 Basis of preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at and for the three and six-month periods ended on June 30, 2026, have been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using the accounting principles consistent with the IFRS Accounting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The Company made a voluntary election to present, as supplementary information, the condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the three-month periods ended on June 30, 2026, and 2025. The Company is also presenting a condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in shareholders’ equity for the three-month periods ended on June 30, 2026, and 2025 in accordance with SEC Final Rule Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all disclosures required by the IFRS Accounting Standards for annual consolidated financial statements and accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended on December 31, 2025, prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB.

Nexa Resources S.A .<br><br>Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements<br><br>Unaudited<br><br>Six-month periods ended on June 30<br><br>All amounts in thousands of US Dollars, unless otherwise stated
--- ---

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of, and using the accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended on December 31, 2025.

The Company has not early adopted any new standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses for the end period. Such estimates and assumptions mainly affect the carrying amounts of the Company’s goodwill, contractual obligations, non-current assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets, inventory, deferred income taxes, and the allowance for doubtful accounts. These critical accounting estimates and assumptions represent approximations that are uncertain and changes in those estimates and assumptions could materially impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

The critical judgments, estimates and assumptions in the application of accounting principles during the three and six-month periods ended on June 30, 2026, are the same as those disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended on December 31, 2025.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six-month periods ended on June 30, 2026, were approved on August 05, 2026, to be issued in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.

(i) Gross billing increased in the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher zinc and copper prices, partially offset by lower smelter sales volumes. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, gross billing also increased compared to the corresponding period in 2025, mainly reflecting higher zinc and copper prices, together with increased sales volumes across both the mining and smelter segments.

(i) During the first semester of 2026, the Company recognized USD 22,661 in cost of sales related to idle capacity arising from operational disruptions that reduced production levels across certain operations. Of this amount, USD 7,995 related to El Porvenir, primarily due to a mechanical incident and seismic events; USD 1,585 related to Atacocha, reflecting a 23-day production stoppage at the San Gerardo open pit caused by local community disruptions, which have since been resolved; and USD 13,081 related to Nexa CJM, due to an operational incident at the smelter reported on May 13, 2026, which has since been resolved.

(ii) Raw materials and consumables increased in the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, compared to the same period in 2025, mainly due to higher consumption and increased unit costs of key raw materials. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, raw materials and consumables also increased compared with the same period in 2025, mainly due to higher consumption and increased unit costs of raw materials, particularly zinc concentrates used in the Company’s operations.

(ii) The amounts for the six-month period ended on June 30, 2026, are mainly related to exchange-rate variations on USD-denominated accounts receivable and payable between Nexa BR and NEXA, as well as to intercompany loans between Nexa BR and its related parties, for which the exchange variation is not eliminated in consolidation, and to foreign-currency-denominated loans. These transactions were affected by the volatility of the Brazilian Real (“BRL”), which appreciated against the USD during 2026.

(c) Summary of uncertain tax positions on income tax
--- ---

As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s main uncertain tax positions were related to: (i) the interpretation of the application of the Cerro Lindo tax stability agreement; (ii) transfer pricing litigation related to transactions with related parties; and (iii) the deductibility of certain costs and expenses.

The estimated amount of tax exposures relating to uncertain tax positions that have neither been paid nor recognized in the balance sheet amounted to USD 161,052 (USD 291,535, as of December 31, 2025). The decrease compared to December 31, 2025, is mainly explained by the matters described below.

Cerro Lindo stability agreement claims

The decrease compared with December 31, 2025, was primarily driven by the final administrative resolutions issued by SUNAT in May 2026 in respect of the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years. Consistent with its approach for the 2018 and 2019 fiscal years, SUNAT determined that taxable income should be allocated between the portion of the Company’s income subject to the tax stability regime (stabilized) and the portion not subject to such regime (non-stabilized). Accordingly, SUNAT reassessed the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years by applying an income tax rate of 20% to the stabilized income and the general rates of 28% to 29.5% to the non-stabilized income of 2016 and 2017, respectively.

Nexa Resources S.A .<br><br>Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements<br><br>Unaudited<br><br>Six-month periods ended on June 30<br><br>All amounts in thousands of US Dollars, unless otherwise stated
--- ---

As a result of these resolutions, the Company reassessed the related tax exposures, including interest and penalties, resulting in a reduction of the amounts previously estimated.

In addition, SUNAT determined that the total assessed amount related to the 2014–2017 proceedings amounted to USD 225,544. Although the Company disagrees with certain portions of the assessments, it make the required payments to continue challenging them before the ultimate competent judicial authority and to obtain the penalty and interest reduction regime. Accordingly, the Company made an upfront payment of USD 130,577 and agreed to settle the remaining balance in monthly installments over a period of up to 72 months.

Of the amount paid, USD 51,568 related to tax treatments whose acceptance by the ultimate competent judicial authority was not considered probable and which had therefore already been recognized as a tax liability; this amount was offset against the payment. With respect to the remaining USD 79,009, and supported by the opinion of external legal counsel, management concluded that it is probable that the Company's tax treatment will be accepted by the ultimate competent judicial authority and that these amounts will be recovered. Consequently, no liability or expense was recognized, and the amounts paid were recorded as “Tax claim payments” within “Other assets”.

As a result of the resolutions and related payments described above, the liabilities recognized for uncertain tax positions associated with the Cerro Lindo tax stability agreement and other matters, recorded within "Tax liabilities", decreased to USD 45,531 as of June 30, 2026, compared with USD 130,709 as of December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) the payment of USD 51,568 of previously recognized tax liabilities, (ii) the reversal of USD 2,649 of penalties, recognized within "Other income and expenses, net", and (iii) the reversal of USD 31,688 of interest, recognized within "Financial income”, both reflecting management's reassessment of the related exposures.

As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, SUNAT is auditing the Company’s income tax returns for the 2020 and 2021 fiscal years.

Tax claim payments recognized within “Other assets”

As of June 30, 2026, the amount paid in connection with tax assessments issued by SUNAT that remain subject to administrative and judicial proceedings totaled USD 216,875 (USD 125,670 as of December 31, 2025), mainly related to the Cerro Lindo stability agreement disputes, non-resident withholding tax assessments and transfer pricing disputes. These amounts are recognized as ”Tax claim payments” within “Other assets” and classified as non-current.

In addition, as of June 30, 2026, in connection with the Cerro Lindo proceedings, the Company had committed to future installment payments comprising: (i) USD 3,042, relating to tax treatments whose acceptance by the ultimate competent judicial authority is not considered probable and which have therefore been recognized within "Tax liabilities", and (ii) an outstanding amount of USD 93,116, for which no liability was recognized because management concluded that it is probable that the ultimate competent judicial authority will accept the Company's tax treatment and, accordingly, that these amounts will not be due. Installment payments that are not recognized as tax liabilities will be recorded as ”Tax claim payments” within “Other assets” as the respective payments are made.

Total 216,875 125,670 124,715

Of the total future installments of USD 124,715, USD 3,042 has been recognized within "Tax liabilities" and USD 121,673 is disclosed but not recognized, as management considers it probable that the related tax treatments will be accepted by the ultimate competent judicial authority.

The increase in tax claim payments was primarily attributable to payments related to the Cerro Lindo tax stability agreement disputes, including USD 8,317 paid during the first quarter of 2026 in connection with the 2019 tax assessment and USD 79,009 paid during the second quarter of 2026 in connection with the 2014–2017 assessments.

Such payments do not constitute an acknowledgment of the underlying tax liabilities, an acceptance of SUNAT's position, or a settlement of the related disputes. Management continues to conclude that it is probable that the ultimate competent judicial authority will accept the related tax treatments.

The related tax claim payments will continue to be recognized within “Other assets” until the disputes are finally resolved. Depending on the final outcome of the proceedings, the amounts may be recovered in cash, offset against future tax obligations, or applied against tax liabilities that may be recognized if management's assessment changes in future periods.

Except for the movements described above, there were no other significant changes in the nature or status of the Company’s uncertain tax positions compared to those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, to which reference is made for further details.

(i) On December 16, 2025, the Company entered into gold and silver Zero Cost Collar (“ZCC”) derivative contracts to hedge forecasted revenues, aiming to mitigate commodity price risk in its Peruvian operations during 2026. The instruments have monthly maturities through December 2026 and limit downside price risk while capping upside exposure.

(ii) On March 28, 2025, NEXA entered into a cross-currency swap with a notional amount of USD 112,652 (BRL 650,000 at the transaction date) to hedge the BRL exposure related to Nexa BR debentures maturing in 2030. The instrument mirrors the debentures’ cash flows, is measured at FVTPL, and its effects are recognized in net financial results.

(i) During 2026 and 2025, changes in fair value increased for future deliveries due to higher long-term forward copper prices. However, this effect was partially offset in the same periods, when copper prices exceeded the price cap, reducing the financial instrument liability related to these sales transactions, with the corresponding revenue recognized at fair value.

(ii) Since June 2023, the Company has been delivering copper concentrates under an offtake agreement, signed in January 2022 (amended in July 2023), to sell 100% of the copper concentrate produced at Aripuanã for a period of 5 years or until NEXA fulfills the agreed delivery volume. The Company estimates that the full committed copper volumes will be delivered by the end of 2029. The transaction price under the agreement is below current market prices due to a price cap established in the contract.

(i) Finished products decreased during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, mainly due to lower refined zinc inventories at the Nexa CJM unit following an operational incident at the refinery reported during the second quarter of 2026, which temporarily affected production. This incident has since been resolved.

(ii) Semi-finished products increased during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, mainly due to higher inventories of calcine and zinc sheets at the Nexa CJM unit, as production exceeded consumption following operational restrictions and the gradual restart of the refinery after the incident in May 2026.

(iii) Inventory provisions increased during the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025, mainly due to higher provisions for obsolete maintenance materials at Nexa BR.

Current<br>assets 81,628 77,225
Non-current<br>assets 308,531 211,427

(i) This amount is mainly related to income tax payments made in connection with tax assessments arising from SUNAT’s interpretation of the Cerro Lindo Tax Stability Agreement for the 2014 through 2019 tax years. These payments are required to preserve the Company’s right to continue challenging the assessments through the judicial process and may be refunded, together with applicable interest, if the Company ultimately prevails in the related litigation. The payments were made in Peruvian soles and are therefore subject to foreign currency fluctuations against the U.S. dollar. For further information, see notes 1(a) and 8(c).

(ii) Other recoverable taxes are composed primarily of tax credits related to ICMS (Tax on Circulation of Goods and Services), which are primarily generated from purchases. In addition, the balances include PIS (Social Integration Program) and COFINS (Contribution to Social Security Financing) tax credits, primarily arising from the acquisition of fixed assets.

Current<br>liabilities 127,942 143,834
Non-current<br>liabilities 62,168 62,269

(i) As of June 30, 2026, this balance was mainly composed of: (i) USD 24,217 related to the outstanding portion of an advance received by El Porvenir in December 2025, out of a total advance of USD 50,000; and (ii) USD 30,000 related to new advance payments received in June 2026 by the subsidiaries Cajamarquilla and Nexa Recursos Minerais. Revenue associated with these advances will be recognized upon product delivery, over a period of up to twelve months, when the related performance obligations are satisfied.

(ii) Other tax liabilities comprise various taxes arising from the Company’s operations, primarily Brazilian taxes related to routine operating activities, as well as other taxes, duties and contributions, mining taxes and fees, mining rights, and value-added tax (VAT) payable in certain jurisdictions. The balance decreased from December 31, 2025, to June 30, 2026, mainly due to a reduction of USD 6,021 in ICMS payable at Nexa Brasil, resulting from the utilization of tax credits to settle installments related to the unfavorable court decision issued in 2025 and to partially settle the tax voluntary disclosure, as well as a reduction of USD 9,755 in VAT payable in Peru.

(i) The adjustment arises from the derecognition of a right-of-use asset (“ROU”) ‘following its classification as a finance sublease under IFRS 16. Accordingly, the ROU asset was replaced by a sublease receivable (net investment). Furthermore, there was no termination or early settlement of the head lease, which remains recognized as a lease liability.

(i) As of June 30, 2026, the credit risk-adjusted rate used for Peru ranged between 7.66% and 11.94% (December 31, 2025: 5.04% and 10.70%), and for Brazil between 7.04% and 9.49% (December 31, 2025: 7.42% and 12.17%).

(ii) The changes observed in the period ended June 30, 2026, primarily reflect two effects recorded in the remeasurement line: (i) revisions to the disbursement timelines for decommissioning obligations at certain operations, following a reassessment of the expected execution schedule under the existing closure plan; and (ii) updates to discount rates, as described above. As a result, asset retirement obligations for operational assets decreased by USD 2,761 (June 30, 2025: increased by USD 2,381), as shown in note 13. Additionally, asset retirement and environmental obligations for non-operational assets resulted in a loss of USD 714 (June 30, 2025: loss of USD 8,055), as detailed in note 6.

18 Impairment of long-lived assets
--- ---

According to Nexa’s policy, the Company assesses at each reporting date whether there are any indicators that the carrying amount of an asset or a CGU may not be recoverable, or whether a previously recognized impairment loss should be reversed. Based on this assessment, impairment tests were performed as of June 30, 2026.

Although the June 30, 2026 closing foreign exchange rate (USD/BRL 5.18) remained below the previously identified break-even level, the Company performed an impairment test for the Juiz de Fora CGU, updating the relevant assumptions, including the foreign exchange rate and forward-looking metal prices. The impairment test did not result in the recognition of any impairment loss.

No impairment losses were recognized for any CGU, and no impairment indicators were identified for the Company’s other CGUs in Brazil and Peru. Management will continue to monitor macroeconomic conditions and other factors that may give rise to impairment indicators.

Additionally, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized an impairment reversal of USD 820 related to individual assets, primarily classified as "Assets and projects under construction", compared to an impairment loss of USD 2,279 (net of tax: USD 1,525) recognized for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, related to other individual assets, mainly classified as "Machinery, equipment, and facilities”.

19 Long-term commitments
(a) Projects evaluation
--- ---

In relation to the Magistral Project, no changes have occurred in the circumstances described in the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2025. As of the date of this report, the deadline to fulfill the Accreditable Investment Commitment remains suspended, as does the potential application of the related penalty in the amount of USD 97,029.

(b) Environmental Guarantee for Dams

In relation to the guarantees for dams, there have been no changes to the regulatory framework since the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2025. The Company continues to await approval from the environmental authorities before proceeding with the remaining obligations.

(c) Instalments commitments

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had tax assessments for the 2014–2017 fiscal years that remain subject to ongoing judicial proceedings. In connection with these matters, the Company entered into installment payment agreements with the Peruvian Tax Authority (SUNAT), under which the outstanding amounts are payable through fixed monthly installments over a period of up to 72 months. The Company continues to challenge these assessments before the ultimate competent judicial authority. Accordingly, entering into these installment agreements does not constitute acceptance of the tax authority’s position or settlement of the underlying disputes.

As of June 30, 2026, the total outstanding amount subject to the installment payment agreements was USD 124,715, representing future cash outflows payable in accordance with the agreed installment schedules, of which USD 3,042 has been recognized within "Tax liabilities". No liability has been recognized for the remaining USD 121,673, as management considers it probable that the related tax positions will be accepted by the ultimate competent judicial authority; installment payments relating to these amounts will be recorded as "Tax claim payments" within "Other assets" as the respective payments are made. For further details see note 8 (c).
