Message from Management We begin 2026 with another quarter of solid execution, reflecting the consistency of our operating model and our ability to combine growth and cash generation while continuing to invest in Afya’s long-term strategic priorities. In the first quarter, our performance was once again supported by the strength of our Undergraduate segment, disciplined capital allocation and continued progress in expanding our physician-centric ecosystem. During the quarter, we completed another successful intake cycle across our medical schools, maintaining 100% occupancy and achieving a 4.6% YoY increase in Medical School net average ticket, excluding acquisitions. This performance was supported by the strength of our academic offering, the effectiveness of our unified intake process, and the continued recognition of the Afya brand across Brazil. Revenue growth in the period also benefited from the continued maturation of medical seats and the contribution from recent seat authorization, and the acquisition of FUNIC. Our integrated model remains a key differentiator, helping us attract students and sustain efficient growth across our campuses In Continuing Education and Medical Practice Solutions, we continued to advance the next phase of our strategy during the quarter. Both segments reflected higher investment levels, mainly in SG&A, product development and engagement initiatives. These investments are part of a broader strategic cycle aimed at strengthening Afya’s ecosystem and unlocking scalable long-term monetization. As our audience and engagement expand, we also reinforce our data advantage, improve users' experience, and build stronger foundations for future B2P and B2B opportunities. At the same time, this more integrated ecosystem continues to support a structurally low customer acquisition cost in Undergraduate, reinforcing an important competitive advantage of our business model. In Continuing Education, this progress was reflected in the growth of Graduate Journey students and B2P revenue growth. In Medical Practice Solutions, we highlight the increase in Clinical Management active payers, together with B2B revenue growth Our capital allocation remained disciplined throughout the quarter. We further reduced leverage, reinforcing the quality of our capital structure while advancing our strategic priorities and returning value to shareholders. Consistent with this approach, we continued to execute our share repurchase program authorized in 2025, which provides for the repurchase of up to 4,000,000 Class A common shares through December 31, 2026. Since the launch of the program, we have already repurchased over 50% of the total amount authorized. In addition, in March 2026, our Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of R$307.4 million, equivalent to 40% of Afya’s 2025 consolidated net income, corresponding to a dividend amount of US$0.656489 per share. Taken together, these actions underscore our commitment to prudent capital allocation, shareholder remuneration, and long-term value creation. Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing with consistency, strengthening our ecosystem, and reinforcing Afya’s role as the partner of choice for physicians in Brazil. We believe that our disciplined investment cycle, combined with the strength of our balance sheet, positions us well to deepen engagement across the physician journey, support sustainable growth, and create long-term value for our shareholders. 1. Key Events in the Quarter On February 6, 2026, MEC authorized an increase of 63 medical seats for ITPAC – Instituto Tocantinense Presidente Antonio Carlos Porto S.A. (“Afya Abaetetuba”), located in the city of Abaetetuba, in the state of Pará. With this authorization, Afya’s Abaetetuba campus will offer a total of 113 medical seats. As Afya Cametá—an approved but, non-operating medical school—and Afya Abaetetuba are located within the same health region, Afya Cametá will not become operational, thereby creating the capacity that enabled the approval of 63 additional medical seats at Afya Abaetetuba. With this addition, Afya now has a total of 3,768 approved medical seats across its portfolio. On March 12, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved dividend distribution in the amount of R$307.4 million, representing 40% of the Company’s consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 and a dividend per share of R$3.446838, paid in U.S. dollars on April 6, 2026, to the shareholders on record as of the close of business on March 25, 2026. The payment was made at the exchange rate (PTAX) published by the Brazilian Central Bank on March 13, 2026. 2. Subsequent Events On May 5, 2026, Moody’s reaffirmed Afya’s credit rating at AAA.br and maintained a stable outlook. The reaffirmation of Afya’s AAA.br rating and stable outlook reflects revenue growth, a track record of above-industry-average margins, very strong credit metrics, exceptional cash generation, and robust liquidity. In addition, Afya’s credit profile reflects a strong competitive position and a predictable financial policy, including proactive liability management and prudent capital allocation, despite its appetite for M&As. 3. 2026 Guidance The Company is reaffirming its 2026 guidance, which assumes the successful acceptance of new students for the first semester of 2026. The guidance for 2026 is defined in the following table: Guidance for 20261 Revenue R$ 3,950 mn ≤ ? ≤ R$ 4,100 mn Adjusted EBITDA R$ 1,700 mn ≤ ? ≤ R$ 1,800 mn CAPEX R$ 340 mn ≤ ? ≤ R$ 380 mn (1) Excludes any acquisition that may be concluded after the issuance of the guidance. 4. 1Q26 Overview Segment Information The Company has three reportable segments as follows: Undergraduate, previously denominated Undergrad, which provides educational services through undergraduate courses related to medical school, undergraduate health science and other ex-health undergraduate programs; Continuing education, which provides medical education (including residency preparation programs, specialization test preparation and other medical capabilities), specialization and graduate courses in medicine, delivered through digital and in-person content; and Medical practice solutions, which provides clinical decision, clinical management and doctor-patient relationships for physicians and provide access, demand and efficiency for the healthcare players.

Excluding acquisitions, Revenue for the three-month period increased by 7.7% YoY to R$1,008.4 million.

Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2026 increased by 4.0% to R$511.4 million, up from R$492.0 million in the same period of the prior year, with the Adjusted EBITDA Margin reducing by -200 basis points to 50.5%. The reduction in Adjusted EBITDA Margin was primarily driven by higher costs and expenses in the Continuing Education and Medical Practice Solutions segments, mainly reflecting (a) lower gross margin compared with the first quarter of 2025; and (b) higher payroll, sales, and marketing expenses associated with the ongoing investment cycle in both segments.

Afya calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus/minus net financial result, plus income taxes expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus interest received on late payments of monthly tuition fees, plus share-based compensation, plus/minus income share associate, plus/minus non-recurring expenses/income. Operating Cash Conversion Ratio is calculated as the Cash flow from Operating Activities plus income taxes paid, minus/plus non-recurring expenses/income divided by Adjusted EBITDA. The non-GAAP supplemental financial measures are provided with the intend to help investors in assessing the overall performance of Afya’s business regarding its core operations, cash generation and profitability. The non-GAAP financial measures described in this release are not substitutes for the IFRS measures. In addition, the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Conversion Ratio are not standardized financial measures and may differ from the calculations used by other companies, including competitors in the education services industry, and therefore, Afya’s measures may not be comparable to those of other companies. 9.

Message from Management
We are pleased to present another year of strong operational and financial performance. In 2025, we once again met our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance, achieving our seventh consecutive year of meeting or exceeding guidance since 2H19. This track record reinforces the strength of our business model, the quality of our execution, and the commitment of our teams. In addition, we delivered our second-highest Adjusted EBITDA margin, reaching 45.4% and an EPS growth of 18.7% in the same period, further supporting our ability to invest in growth and create long-term value for our shareholders.
This consistent performance gives us a solid foundation as we move into the next phase of our journey and look ahead to our 2026 guidance. We remain focused on combining sustainable growth with financial discipline while staying close to the needs of physicians and the Brazilian healthcare ecosystem.
In our Undergraduate segment, 2025 was marked by strong and sustainable revenue growth across Medical Schools, and other health related programs. This result reflects the maturity of our medical seats and the strength of Afya’s academic offering and brand. As we enter 2026, we start the year with 3,705 operating medical school seats, including 100 additional seats authorized at Afya Bragança. Our unified intake process across all medical schools is a key enabler, helping us attract and retain top candidates nationwide. This integrated approach brings consistency to admissions, reinforces Afya’s position as a leading medical education group, and supports greater operational efficiency across our campuses.
In Continuing Education and Medical Practice Solutions, 2025 was a year of higher efficiency and stronger synergies between the segments, which boosted gross margin expansion. We increased the total number of Continuing Education students by 8.9%, and for Medical Practice Solutions, we highlight the 9.4% growth in B2P revenue, demonstrating the value of our solutions and the segment's scalability.
Looking ahead to 2026, we are entering a new phase for Afya. Our ambition is to be recognized as the go-to brand for every physician in Brazil, in every stage of their medical career. In this new investment cycle, we will focus on expanding our audience and strengthening our digital products. Our goal is to increase adoption, deepen engagement, and continue growing our physician base. By making our ecosystem stronger and more integrated, we are able to sustain a structurally low customer acquisition cost for Undergraduate students, maintaining our competitive advantage and preserving efficient growth even in a more challenging environment. In this way, we are consolidating Afya as the long-term partner that supports physicians throughout their careers and building a solid platform for future B2B revenue opportunities.
On the solid basis of our guidance achievement for 2025, we are now presenting our guidance for 2026. We expect Revenue to range between R$3,950 million and R$ 4,100 million, and Adjusted EBITDA to be between R$1,700 million and R$1,800 million, excluding any acquisition that may be concluded after the issuance of this guidance.
From a capital allocation perspective, our strong cash generation and solid balance sheet allow us to support our organic and inorganic growth strategy while also returning value to shareholders. In 2025, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the buyback of up to 4,000,000 Class A common shares through December 31, 2026. On March 12, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of R$307.4 million, corresponding to 40% of Afya’s 2025 consolidated net income, supported by our 2025 Free Cash Flow of R$1,056 million reinforcing our commitment to shareholder remuneration, the strength of our financial position and our disciplined capital allocation strategy.
Looking ahead, we will keep strengthening our ecosystem, supporting physicians at every stage of their careers and pursuing sustainable growth in the years to come. We are proud of how far we have come and excited about the opportunities ahead as we continue to shape the future of the medical journey in Brazil.
1. Key Events in the Quarter
On October 15, 2025, Afya Brazil issued commercial notes for private placement ("Commercial Notes”), sold to Opea Securitizadora S.A. ("Opea”), a Brazilian securitization corporation pursuant to Section 45 of Brazilian Law No. 14,195/2021, as amended. Opea issued a debenture backed by the Commercial Notes on the same terms and conditions.
The aggregate principal amount of the Commercial Notes is R$1,500,000, divided into two series, the first in the aggregate amount of R$500,000 ("First Series”) and the second in the aggregate amount of R$1,000,000 ("Second Series”). The First Series will mature on October 15, 2028 and the Second Series will mature on October 15, 2030. The interest rate applicable to the First Series and Second Series will be equal to the CDI rate plus a spread of 0.70% and 0.85% per year, respectively, based on 252 business days.
Afya Brazil is subject to certain obligations including financial covenants, and the Company shall maintain Net Debt (excluding lease liabilities) to adjusted EBITDA ratio below or equal to 3.0x, at the end of each fiscal year, until the maturity date, applicable from December 31, 2025 and thereafter. Adjusted EBITDA for covenant purposes considers net income plus (i) income taxes expenses, (ii) net financial result (excluding interest expenses on lease liabilities), (iii) depreciation and amortization expenses (excluding right-of-use assets depreciation expenses), (iv) share-based compensation expenses, (v) share of income of associate, (vi) interest received and (vii) non-recurring expenses. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is compliant with all obligations set forth in this Commercial Notes.
The Commercial Notes have sureties provided by the following subsidiaries of the Company: Unigranrio, IESP and DelRey.
On October 22, 2025, Afya Brazil fully repaid the aggregate outstanding amount related to the first issuance of debentures originally issued on December 16, 2022. The debentures were issued with a final maturity date of January 15, 2028, with the principal to be amortized in two equal installments payable on January 15, 2027, and January 15, 2028.
On November 3, 2025, the Company repurchased all 150,000 Series A perpetual convertible preferred shares of a nominal or par value of US$0.00005 each in the capital of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of R$831,600, following the Share Repurchase Agreement with SBLA Holdco LLC, an affiliate of Softbank. All repurchased Series A Preferred Shares were cancelled by the Company.
On November 7, 2025, MEC authorized the increase of 100 medical school seats of ITPAC Porto located in the city of Bragança, State of Pará. With this authorization, Afya reaches 150 medical school seats on this campus, and 3,753 total approved medical school seats.
On December 18, 2025, MEC authorized the approval of two additional medical school seats at Afya Pato Branco, increasing Afya’s total approved medical school seats to 3,755.
2. Subsequent Events
On February 6, 2026, MEC authorized an increase of 63 medical seats for ITPAC – Instituto Tocantinense Presidente Antonio Carlos Porto S.A. (“Afya Abaetetuba”), located in the city of Abaetetuba, in the state of Pará. With this authorization, Afya’s Abaetetuba campus will offer a total of 113 medical seats.
As Afya Cametá—an approved but, non-operating medical school—and Afya Abaetetuba are located within the same health region, Afya Cametá will not become operational, thereby creating the capacity that enabled the approval of 63 additional medical seats at Afya Abaetetuba. With this addition, Afya now has a total of 3,768 approved medical seats across its portfolio.
On March 12, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved dividend distribution in the amount of R$307.4 million, representing 40% of the Company’s consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2025 and a dividend per share of R$3.446838, payable in U.S. dollars on April 6, 2026, to the shareholders on record as of the close of business on March 25, 2025. The payment will be made at the exchange rate (PTAX) to be published by the Brazilian Central Bank on March 13, 2026.

Seasonality of Operations
Undergraduate tuition revenues are related to the intake process, and monthly tuition fees charged to students, and do not significantly fluctuate during each semester.
Continuing education revenues are mostly related to: (i) monthly intakes and tuition fees on medical education, which do not have a considerable concentration in any period; (ii) Residency journey product revenues, derived from e-books transferred at a point of time, which are concentrated in the first and last quarter of the year due to the enrollments.
Medical Practice Solutions are comprised mainly of Afya Whitebook and Afya iClinic revenues, which do not have significant fluctuations regarding seasonality.
Revenue
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was R$913.0 million, an increase of 7.5% over the same period in the prior year. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2025, Revenue was R$3,697.3 million, reflecting an 11.9% increase over the same period of last year. Excluding acquisitions, Revenue in the fourth quarter increased by 7.3% YoY to R$910.8 million. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2025, excluding acquisitions, Revenue was R$3,607.5 million, reflecting a 9.2% increase over the same period of last year.
The yearly revenue increase was mainly driven by (a) Undergraduate, higher tickets in medicine courses, the maturation of medical school seats, the increase in non-medical students, the acquisition of FUNIC and the full year results consolidation of UNIDOM (Acquired July of 2024); (b) Continuing Education, expansion in Graduate Journey campuses and students, increasing the average ticket per student across the segment, and (c) Medical Practice Solutions, which delivered growth primarily due to an expansion in Clinical Management active payers and a more favorable product mix compensating the decrease in the B2B.

Net Income
Net Income for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled R$175.4 million, representing a 13.7% YoY increase. Adjusted Net Income reached R$205.7 million, an increase of 6.3% over the same period in the prior year. For the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, Net Income benefited from proactive liability management actions, primarily driven by the repurchase and cancellation of the perpetual convertible preferred shares held by SoftBank, which resulted in a gain of R$18 million.
For the twelve-month period, Afya achieved a Net Income of R$768.4 million, 18.4% higher than the same period of 2024, and an Adjusted Net Income of R$901.7 million, which was 9.9% higher than the previous period. For the year, growth reflects stronger operational performance, combined with the recognition of deferred tax assets, partially offset by the additional CSLL provision related to the OECD’s Pillar Two global minimum tax effects.
Basic EPS for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2025, reached R$8.32. An increase of 18.7% YoY, reflecting the higher Net Income and our capital allocation with the execution of the Repurchase Program approved in August of 2025.

The following table shows more information regarding the cost of debt for 2025, considering loans and financing and accounts payable to selling shareholders. Afya’s capital structure remains solid, with a conservative leveraging position and a low cost of debt. Afya’s Net Debt (excluding the effect of IFRS16) divided by Adjusted EBITDA is 0.8x, marking an impressive reduction from 1.2x in the same period of the prior year, reinforcing Afya’s accelerated deleveraging trend.
The issuance of R$1,500 million in debentures on October 15, 2025, together with the repurchase and cancellation of the perpetual convertible held by SoftBank, the first issuance of debentures by Afya Participações S.A., and other Loans and Financing, demonstrates Afya’s disciplined approach to capital allocation and liability management, resulting in an extended average debt duration to 3.6 years.

3. Forward – Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking, including risks and uncertainties related to statements about our competition; our ability to attract, upsell and retain students; our capacity to increase tuition prices; our ability to anticipate and meet the evolving needs of students and teachers; our capacity to source and successfully integrate acquisitions; as well as general market, political, economic, and business conditions. Additionally, these statements include financial targets such as revenue, share count and IFRS and non-IFRS financial measures including gross margin, operating margin, net income (loss) per diluted share, and free cash flow. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed on them.
The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this press release to reflect events or circumstances occurring after its publication, nor to incorporate new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. The achievement or success of the matters covered by such forward-looking statements involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, our results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements we make.
Readers should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements represent management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date they are made. Further information on these and other factors that could affect the Company’s financial results is included in filings made with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from time to time, including the section titled “Risk Factors” in the most recent annual report on Form 20-F.

4. Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS accounting standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board—IASB, Afya presents Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Cash Conversion Ratio, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures, for the convenience of investors. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that intends to measure financial performance but excludes or includes amounts that would not be equally adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure.
Afya calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus/minus net financial result, plus income taxes expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus interest received on late payments of monthly tuition fees, plus share-based compensation, plus/minus income share associate, plus/minus non-recurring expenses/income. Operating Cash Conversion Ratio is calculated as the Cash flow from Operating Activities plus income taxes paid, minus/plus non-recurring expenses/income divided by Adjusted EBITDA. The calculation of Adjusted Net Income is the Net Income plus amortization of customer relationships and trademark, plus share-based compensation, plus/minus non-recurring expenses/income. The calculation of Adjusted EPS is the Adjusted Net Income minus the non-controlling interests divided by the Weighted average number of outstanding shares.
The non-GAAP supplemental financial measures are provided with the intend to help investors in assessing the overall performance of Afya’s business regarding its core operations, cash generation and profitability. The non-GAAP financial measures described in this release are not substitutes for the IFRS measures. In addition, the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Operating Cash Conversion Ratio, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are not standardized financial measures and may differ from the calculations used by other companies, including competitors in the education services industry, and therefore, Afya’s measures may not be comparable to those of other companies.
