1.Background information
Lavoro Limited is a Cayman Island exempted company incorporated on August 22, 2022.
Lavoro Limited is a public company listed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and its shares are traded on Nasdaq Global Select Market under ticker symbol “LVRO”.
Lavoro Limited (“Lavoro” and collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) is one of the main agricultural input distribution platforms in Latin America, with relevant agricultural input distribution operations in Brazil and Colombia, and an agricultural input trading company in Uruguay. Also, as a result of a verticalization strategy, the Group produces agricultural biological and special fertilizers products through its own facilities. The Group offers farmers a complete portfolio of products and services with the goal of helping farmer customers succeed by providing multi-channel support. The Group began its operations in 2017, and expansion through M&As has always been part of Lavoro's business strategy.
As of June 30, 2024, the Group is controlled by investment funds managed by Patria Investments Limited (“Patria”), a global alternative asset manager with shares listed on NASDAQ.
(a)The SPAC Transaction
On September 14, 2022, Lavoro and TPB Acquisition Corporation I (“TPB Acquisition Corp.”), a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by The Production Board LLC, signed an agreement pursuant to which they entered into a definitive business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) that resulted in Lavoro becoming a U.S. publicly listed company on the NASDAQ Global Market.
The SPAC Transaction was approved at an extraordinary general meeting of TPB Acquisition Corp’s shareholders on February 22, 2023.
On February 28, 2023, as a result of the SPAC Transaction Lavoro and TPB Acquisition Corp consummated a corporate reorganization, as further explained below, pursuant to which (i) Lavoro Agro Limited’s shareholders contributed their shares in Lavoro Agro Limited to Lavoro in exchange of Lavoro’s shares at a pre-determined exchange ratio, becoming Lavoro’s controlling shareholders (ii) TPB
image_30.jpg
F-17

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
Acquisition Corp’s shareholders contributed the net assets of TPB Acquisition Corp, which primarily consisted of cash and marketable securities held in the trust account and certain public and private warrants liabilities in exchange of Lavoro’s shares, becoming Lavoro’s non-controlling shareholders.
See Note 23 for further information.
(b)Corporate reorganizations
The Group’s operations include the operations of the following entities (i) Lavoro Agro Holding S.A. and its subsidiaries (“Lavoro Holding”) which was incorporated in 2017 and is domiciled in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, (ii) Crop Care Holding S.A., and its subsidiaries (“Crop Care”) which was incorporated in 2018 and is domiciled in the city of São Paulo, Brazil and (iii) Lavoro Colombia S.A.S. and its subsidiaries (“Lavoro Colombia”) which was incorporated in 2021 and is domiciled in the city of Bogotá, Colombia.
In January 2023, as part of the SPAC Transaction a corporate reorganization was completed whereby Lavoro Brazil, Crop Care and Lavoro Colombia were contributed to, and became subsidiaries of Lavoro Agro Limited, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability which was incorporated on November 21, 2021, to become the holding company of all the operations of the Group.
As mentioned above, following the consummation of the SPAC Transaction Lavoro became the parent company of Lavoro Agro Limited and the holding company of all the operations of the Group.
(c)The Group’s business
The Group initiated its operations in 2017 and has expanded mainly through mergers and acquisitions in the distribution of agricultural inputs such as crop protection products, fertilizers, seeds and specialty inputs (foliar fertilizers, biologicals, adjuvants and organominerals) and its production through its proprietary portfolio of products under the crop care segment.
Through Crop Care, the Group operates as an importer of post-patent agricultural inputs and producer of specialties products through its own factories’ manufacturing plants. The inputs produced are delivered through the Group’s own distribution channels and by means of direct sales to customers.
The Group operates in Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay in the agricultural input distribution market through its own stores and sells agricultural inputs and products, in particular fertilizers, seeds and pesticides, and an early stage

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
agricultural input company in Ecuador. The Group’s customers are rural producers that operate in the production of cereals, mainly soybeans and corn, in addition to cotton, citrus and fruit and vegetable crops, among others.
(d)Seasonality
Agribusiness is subject to seasonality throughout the year, especially due to the crop cycles that depend on specific weather conditions. Operations, especially in Brazil, have unique weather conditions compared to other countries producing agricultural commodities, making it possible to harvest two to three crops in the same area per year. Thus, considering that the activities of the Group’s customers are directly related to crop cycles, which are seasonal in nature, revenues and cash flows from sales may also be substantially seasonal.
The sale of our products is dependent upon planting and growing seasons, which vary from year to year, and are expected to result in both highly seasonal patterns and substantial fluctuations in quarterly sales and profitability. Demand for our products is typically strongest between October and December, with a second period of strong demand between January and March. The seasonality of agricultural inputs results in our sales volumes and net sales typically being the highest during the period between September to February and our working capital and total debt requirements typically being the highest just after the end of this period.
(e)Other relevant events
Acquisitions
The Group concluded business acquisitions during the year ended June, 30, 2024, for which the total consideration was R$151,985 including cash, amounts payable and installments. These acquisitions are further described in Note 22.
2.    Significant accounting policies
(a)Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements - Predecessor method
Lavoro became the Group’s legal holding company through the corporate reorganization described in Note 1 (b). Such corporate reorganization was recorded at book value since it is a transaction under common control.
image_30.jpg
F-19

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
Under IFRS there is no specific guidance applicable to business combinations of entities under common control, as IFRS 3, excludes business combinations between such entities from its scope.
Due to the lack of specific guidance the Group has established an accounting policy as required by IAS 8 — Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. In doing so, the Group considered guidance of other standards-setting bodies that use a similar conceptual framework to develop accounting standards as well as the accounting practices of entities subject to those standards such as the United States of America and the United Kingdom.
As a result, the Group accounted for the corporate reorganizations using the predecessor method of accounting, and the consolidated financial statements are presented “as if” the historical consolidated operations of Lavoro Brazil, Crop Care and Lavoro Colombia were the predecessor of Lavoro. Under the predecessor method, the historical operations of the Group prior to the corporate reorganizations are deemed to be those of Lavoro. Thus, these consolidated financial statements reflect:
the historical operating results and financial position of Lavoro Brazil, Crop Care and Lavoro Colombia on a combined basis prior to the corporate reorganizations
the assets and liabilities of Lavoro Brazil, Crop Care and Lavoro Colombia at their historical cost; and
Lavoro’s earnings per share: the number of ordinary shares issued by Lavoro, as a result of the corporate reorganization is reflected retroactively, for the purposes of calculating earnings per share in all prior years presented.
The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
The Group has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Executive Management consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt over this assumption. They have formed a judgement that there is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period.
image_30.jpg
F-20

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for financial assets and financial liabilities (including commodity forward contracts and derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“BRL” or “R$”), which is the Group’s functional and presentation currency. All amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand (R$000), except when otherwise indicated.
On October 31, 2024, the issuance of the consolidated financial statements was approved by the Group’s Board of Directors.
(b)Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
Use of critical accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, income and expenses. These estimates are based on management’s experience and knowledge, information available at the reporting date and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under normal circumstances. Any changes in facts and circumstances may lead to a revision of these estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The estimates and assumptions are revised on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized on a forward-looking basis. The significant estimates and judgments applied by the Group in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are presented in the following notes:

3.Summary of significant accounting policies
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements have been included in the related explanatory notes and are consistent in all reporting years.
(a)New accounting standards, interpretations and amendments adopted starting July 1, 2023:
The following new accounting standards, interpretations and amendments were adopted starting July 1, 2023:
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts;
Definition of Accounting Estimates – Amendments to IAS 8;
Disclosure of Accounting Policies – Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2;
Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction – Amendments to IAS 12;
International Tax Reform—Pillar Two Model Rules – Amendments to IAS 12
Additionally, the new standards and interpretations did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
(b)New accounting standards, interpretations and amendments issued but not yet effective
Some accounting standards and interpretations have been issued, but are not yet effective.
The Group has not early adopted any of these standards and does not expect these standards to have a material impact on the financial statements in subsequent periods.
image_30.jpg
F-26

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
New and amended standards and interpretations issued, but not yet effective up to the date of the issuance of the Group’s consolidated financial statements are as follows:
Amendments to IAS 1: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Noncurrent;
Amendments to IFRS 16: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback;
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7: Supplier Finance Arrangemets ;
Amendments to IAS 21: Lack of exchangeability.
The Group intends to adopt these new standards, amendments and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective; and the Group does not expect them to have a material impact on the financial statements.
(c)Foreign currency
(i) Functional currency and presentation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“R$”), which is the Group’s functional currency.
The Group determines the functional currency of each of the consolidated entities. Items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency for the majority of the Group’s entities is the Brazilian real. (Brazil Ag Retail and Crop Care – see Note 5), except for the companies in Colombia, whose functional currency is the Colombian peso (COP$).
For consolidation, the operations in Colombia are translated into Brazilian reais, as follows:
(i)Assets and liabilities are translated into Reais at the closing exchange as of the reporting date;
(ii)Profit or loss items are translated at the average monthly exchange rate; and
(iii)Exchange differences arising on translation are recognized in other comprehensive income.
On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss. Any goodwill arising on the acquisition of a foreign operation and any fair value adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at the spot rate of exchange as of the reporting date.
image_30.jpg
F-27

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_5.jpg
(ii) Transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange as of the reporting date. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognized in the statements of profit or loss.
Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. The gain or loss arising on translation of non-monetary items measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on the change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation differences on items whose fair value gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss are also recognized in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).
(d)Current versus non-current classification
The Group presents assets and liabilities in the statements of financial position based on current/non-current classification. An asset is current when it is:
Expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle;
Held primarily for the purpose of trading;
Expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or
Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is current when:
It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle;
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading;
It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or

There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.
The terms of the liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
The Group classifies all other liabilities as non-current. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.

4.    Segment information
(a)Reportable segments by management
The chief operating decision-maker of the Group (the “CODM”) is the Executive Management which is responsible for allocating resources among operating segments, assessing their performance and making strategic decisions.
The determination of the reportable segments is based on internal reports reviewed by the CODM, which include considerations in relation to risks and returns, organizational structure, etc. Certain expenses across segments are allocated based on reasonable allocation criteria, such as revenues or historical trends.
The Group’s reportable segments are the following:
Brazil Ag Retail (formerly Brazil Cluster): comprising companies located in Brazil that sell agricultural inputs;
LATAM Ag Retail (formerly LATAM Cluster): comprising companies located in Colombia that sell agricultural inputs;
Crop Care (formerly Crop Care Cluster): comprising companies that produce and import their own portfolio of proprietary products including off-patent crop protection and specialty products (e.g., biologicals and specialty fertilizers).
(b)Reclassification between reportable segments and corporate
For the year ended 2024, the Company revisited the information used by the CODM to reclassify amounts related to corporate expenses incurred by the holding company and not directly related to any operating segment. Previously the Group only considered as corporate expenses the balances of Lavoro Limited. The comparative information has been retroactively adjusted for comparison purposes.

The average effective interest rate used to discount trade receivables for the year ended June 30, 2024 was 0.90% per month (0.96% as of June 30, 2023). The Group does not have any customer that represents more than 10% of its trade receivables or revenues.
As of June 30, 2024, the Group also transferred trade receivables to the FIAGRO (Agro-industrial Supply Chain Investment Fund), a structured entity, as defined by IFRS 10, established under Brazilian law designed specifically for investing in agribusiness credit rights receivables, in the amount of R$127,421 (R$167,278 on June 30, 2023).
As the Group has retained the risks and rewards of ownership, these amounts were not derecognized from trade receivables. Consequently, the liability resulting from these operations is recorded as obligations to FIAGRO quota holders.

7.    Financial instruments
Accounting policy
Initial recognition and measurement
(i)Financial assets
Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, and subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value through profit or loss.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s business model for managing them. The Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are ‘solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)’ on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.
The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows.
Subsequent measurement
For purposes of subsequent measurement, Group’s financial assets are classified in following categories:
Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
image_30.jpg
F-39

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statements of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognized in the statements of profit or loss.
Derecognition
A financial asset is primarily derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired.
Impairment
The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses for trade receivables, which is the only debt instrument not held at fair value through profit or loss.
(ii)Financial liabilities:
The Group classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: (i) measured at amortized cost and (ii) fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities classified as fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as fair value through profit or loss. Financial liabilities are derecognized when contractual obligations are withdrawn, canceled, or expired. The difference between the extinguished book value and the consideration paid (including transferred assets or assumed liabilities) is recognized in the statement of income.
The Group’s financial instruments were classified according to the following categories:

The Group considers that assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost, have a carrying value approximate to their fair value and, therefore, information on their fair values is not presented.
(a)Hierarchy of fair value
The Group uses various methods to measure and determine fair value (including market approaches and income or cost approaches) and to estimate the value that market participants would use to price the asset or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed within the following fair value hierarchy levels:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active, liquid and visible markets, for identical assets and liabilities that are readily available at the measurement date;
Level 2 - Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
All financial instruments accounted for at fair value are classified as level 2, except for the Warrant liability which is classified as level 1. On June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, there were no changes in the fair value methodology of the financial instruments and, therefore, there were no transfers between levels.
8.    Financial and capital risk management
(a)Considerations on risk factors that may affect the business of the Group
The Group is exposed to several market risk factors that might impact its business. The Group’s board of directors is responsible for monitoring these risk factors, as well as establishing policies and procedures to address them. The Group’s risk management structure considers the size and complexity of its activities, which allows for a better understanding of how such risks could impact Group’s strategy through committees and other internal meetings.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
Currently, the Group is focused on action plans relating to risks that could have a significant impact on its strategic goals, including those required by applicable regulations. To efficiently manage and mitigate these risks, its risk management structure conducts risk identification and assessments to prioritize the risks that are key to pursuing potential opportunities that may prevent value from being created or that may compromise existing value, with the possibility of impacting its results, capital, liquidity, customer relationships and/or reputation.
The Group’s risk management strategies were developed to mitigate and/or reduce the financial market risks which it is exposed to, which are as follows:
credit risk
liquidity risk
capital risk
interest rate risk
exchange rate risk
commodity price risk in barter transactions
(b)Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial losses if a customer or a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to fulfill its contractual obligations, which arise mainly from the Group’s trade receivables. The Group maintains short-term investments and derivatives with financial institutions approved by its management according to objective criteria for diversification of such risk.
The Group seeks to mitigate its credit risk related to trade receivables by setting forth credit limits for each counterparty based on the analysis of its credit management process. Such credit exposure determination is performed considering the qualitative and quantitative information of each counterparty. The Group also focuses on the diversification of its portfolio and monitors different solvency and liquidity indicators of its counterparties. In addition, primarily for receivables in installments, the Group monitors the balance of allowances for expected credit losses. (see Note 6).
The main strategies on credit risks management are listed below:
creating credit approval policies and procedures for new and existing customers.
extending credit to qualified customers through a review of credit agency reports, financial statements and/or credit references, when available.
image_30.jpg
F-44

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
reviewing existing customer accounts every twelve months based on the credit limit amounts.
evaluating customer and regional risks.
obtaining guarantees through the endorsement of rural producer notes (“CPR”), which give physical ownership of the relevant agricultural goods in the event of the customer’s default.
establishing credit approval for suppliers in case of payments in advance.
setting up provisions using the lifetime expected credit loss method considering all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. Receivables are categorized based on the number of overdue days and/or a customer’s credit risk profile. Estimated losses on receivables are based on known troubled accounts and historical losses. Receivables are considered to be in default and are written off against the allowance for credit losses when it is probable that all remaining contractual payments due will not be collected in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
requiring minimum acceptable counterparty credit ratings from financial counterparties.
setting limits for counterparties or credit exposure; and
developing relationships with investment-grade counterparties.
The current credit policy sets forth credit limits for customers based on credit score analysis made by the Group’s credit management area. Such score is determined considering the qualitative and quantitative information related to each customer, resulting in a rating classification and a level of requirement of guarantees as follows:
% Of guarantees required on sales
Credit rating% Customers   Risk classificationMedium-sized farmers (i)Other

(i)Medium-sized farmers ranging between 100 and 10,000 hectares in planted acreage that are typically not serviced directly by agricultural input suppliers.
For Colombia there is a similar credit scoring process, however, guarantees are not required based on credit ratings but instead based on qualitative factors such as relationships and past experiences with customers.

(c)Liquidity risk
The Group defines liquidity risk as the risk of financial losses if it is unable to comply with its payment obligations in connection with financial liabilities settled in cash or other financial assets in a timely manner as they become due. The Group’s approach to managing this risk is to ensure that it has sufficient cash available to settle its obligations without incurring losses or affecting the operations. Management is ultimately responsible for managing liquidity risk, which relies on a liquidity risk management model to manage funding requirements and liquidity in the short, medium and long term.
The Group’s cash position is monitored by its senior management, through management reports and periodic performance meetings. The Group also manages its liquidity risk by maintaining reserves, bank credit facilities and other borrowing facilities deemed appropriate, through ongoing monitoring of forecast and actual cash flows, as well as through the combination of maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

(d)Capital risk
The Group's capital management objective is to ensure that it maintains healthy leverage levels and access to capital to support its ongoing operations. The Group manages its capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Group monitors capital using the net debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio.
The Group did not make any changes to its approach to capital management during the year.
(i)Interest rate risk
image_30.jpg
F-48

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
Fluctuations in interest rates, such as the Brazilian interbank deposit rate, which is an average of interbank overnight rates in Brazil, and Colombian investment rate, which is an average of interbank and financial corporation loans, may have an effect on the cost of the Group’s borrowings and new borrowings.
The Group periodically monitors the effects of market changes in interest rates on its financial instruments portfolio. Funds raised by the Group are used to finance working capital for each crop season and are typically raised at short term conditions.
As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Group had no derivative financial instruments used to mitigate interest rate risks.
(i)Sensitivity analysis – exposure to interest rates
To mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk, the Group uses different scenarios to evaluate the sensitivity of variations transactions impacted by the CDI Rate and IBR Rate. The Scenario 1 represents the impact on booked amounts considering the most current (September 2024) CDI Rate and IBR Rate and reflects management’s best estimates. The Scenario 2 and Scenario 3 consider an increase of 25% and 50% in such market interest rates, before taxes, which represents a significant change in the probable scenario for sensitivity purposes.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from its operations related to agricultural inputs, mainly related to the U.S. dollar, which significantly impacts global prices of agricultural inputs in general. Although all purchases and sales are conducted locally, certain purchase and sales contracts are indexed to the U.S. dollar.
The Group’s current commercial department seeks to reduce this exposure. Its marketing department is responsible for managing pricing tables and commercial strategies to seek a natural hedge between purchases and sales and to match currency and terms to the greatest extent possible.
The Group’s corporate treasury department is responsible for monitoring the forecasted cash flow exposure to the U.S. dollar, and whenever any mismatches as to terms and currencies are identified, non-deliverable forwards derivative financial instruments are purchased to offset these exposures, and therefore fulfill internal policy requirements. U.S. dollar exposure is managed by macro hedging through the analysis of the forecasted cash flow for the next two harvests. The Group may not have any leveraged derivative position.
The Group’s exchange rate exposure monitoring committee meets periodically across the commercial, treasury and corporate business departments. There are also committees on purchase valuation and business intelligence for the main goods traded by the Group.
The Group does not adopt hedge accounting. Therefore, gains and losses from derivative operations are fully recognized in the statements of profit or loss, as disclosed in Note 31.
(i)Sensitivity analysis – exposure to exchange rates
To gauge its exposure to exchange rate risk, the Group uses different scenarios to evaluate its asset and liability positions in foreign currency and their potential effects on its results.
The Scenario 1 below represents the impact on carrying amounts of the most current (September 2024) market rates for the U.S. dollar (R$5.4481 to US$1.00). This analysis assumes that all other variables, particularly interest rates, remain constant. The Scenario 2 and Scenario 3 consider the devaluation of the Brazilian real against the US dollar at the rates of 25% and 50%, which represents a significant change in the probable scenario for sensitivity purposes.

(iii)Commodity prices risk in barter transactions
In all barter transactions mentioned in Note 11, the Group uses future commodity market price as the reference to value the quantities of commodities included in the forward contracts to be delivered by the customers as payment for the Group’s products into currency. The Group uses prices quoted by commodity trading companies to value the grain purchase contracts from farmers, Lavoro enters into grain sale contracts with trading companies or forward derivatives with financial institutions to sell those same grains, at the same price of the purchased contracts with farmers. As such, the Group strategy to manage its exposure to those commodity prices by entering into the purchase and sale contracts at similar conditions.
These transactions are conducted by a corporate department which manages and controls such contracts as well as the compliance of Group’s policies.

(iv)Derivative financial investments
The Group is exposed to market risks mainly related to fluctuations in exchange rates and commodity prices. The Group maintains operations with financial instruments of protection to mitigate exposure to these risks. The Group has been implementing and improving the internal controls to identify and measure the effects of transactions with trading companies and with financial institutions, so that such transactions are captured, recognized and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Group does not carry out investments of a nature speculative in derivatives or any other risk assets. Trading derivatives are classified as current assets or liabilities.

9.    Inventories
Accounting policy
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The costs of individual items of inventory are determined using weighted average costs less any losses, when applicable.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion (when applicable) and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
An inventory loss is recognized for inventories that are close to their expiration date and there is no expectation that they will be sold.

Income tax Benefits arising from ICMS deduction
During the 2023/2024 period, the Group benefited from deducting the ICMS tax benefit, as described in item (i), in the income tax calculation. This deduction was applied to the tax calculation for the calendar year 2023 (January to December) as well as for previous years, resulting in an income tax credit of R$71,130, which was recognized in the year ended June 30, 2024, under “Brazilian federal contribution.”
In accordance with Article 30 of Law No. 12,973/2014, ICMS benefits must be allocated to the fiscal incentive reserve when sufficient profits are available in each subsidiary. Additionally, under the same law, these tax benefits must be included in the calculation base for Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) and Social Contribution on Net Profits (CSLL) when dividends are distributed or capital is returned to the subsidiaries' shareholders.
As of June 30, 2024, the fiscal incentive reserve balance in the subsidiaries amounted to R$458,560, with an unallocated fiscal benefit of at R$916,757 due to insufficient profits. The Group has no plans for its subsidiaries to distribute these incentive amounts to the parent company. However, should dividends be distributed, the relevant tax laws will apply.
It is important to note that, as a result of the amendments introduced by Law No. 14,789/23, Article 30 of Law No. 12,973/2014 has been repealed, eliminating the ability to exclude ICMS benefit amounts from the income tax base for the current and future fiscal years, starting from January 2024. Despite this legislative change, the tax credits recorded on the balance sheet remain recoverable.
11.    Commodity forward contracts – Barter transactions
For certain contracts with customers, the Group carries out term sales of agricultural inputs (e.g., fertilizers, crop chemicals, seeds) in exchange for future delivery of grains, mainly soybeans and corn, at the time of their harvest (“Barter transactions").
A contract (grain purchase agreement) is signed between the Group and the customer, pursuant to which Lavoro and the customer agree on an amount of commodity, to be delivered at harvesting, which is equivalent to the total sales price based on the future commodity price on the date in which the contract with the customer is entered into. The customers’ main obligation under this contract is to deliver the agreed upon volume of commodities as payment at a future date.
image_30.jpg
F-56

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
Contemporaneously, the Group enters into a future grain sale agreement with a commodity trading company, pursuant to which the Group is committed to deliver the commodity to be received by the customer under the inputs sales transaction. The Group strategy is to sign this agreement for the same quantity and the same terms of the contract between the Group and its customer. While this physical sale of the grains is not concluded with trading companies, the Group may enter into a derivative contract on commodity and futures exchanges such as CBOT, ICE, or B3, in an equivalent term associated with the physical grain purchases. This aims to mitigate exposure to price fluctuations. Consequently, the Group maintains these derivative contracts to naturally hedge against market volatility. As soon as the physical sale of the grains is concluded, the derivative contracts are promptly liquidated to realize the hedging gains or losses.
In the event the customer fails to deliver the committed commodity amount upon harvesting, for example due to a significant increase in the commodity price the Group is required to:
purchase the commodity in the spot market and deliver it to the commodity trading company; or
pay compensation to the commodity trading company in an amount equal to the difference between the commodity price between the time of delivery and the time of closing of the agreement (“washout risk”).
The Group is entitled to charge its customers for any losses arising from the settlement of its obligations above with the commodity trading companies.
Even though these agreements are settled physically (grains purchase and sale), under IFRS 9, the Group designates, at initial recognition, such forward contracts as measured at fair value through profit and losses (FVTPL).
The fair value of the commodity forward contracts, entered into with the customer and the commodity trading company is estimated based on information available in the market and specific valuation methodologies, and discounted to present value, considering the contractual terms and the current market prices for such commodities. Such contracts are disclosed on a gross basis in the statements of financial position. When the Group settles the grain purchase and sale agreements the respective cost and revenue is recognized at the amount of the cash paid plus the fair value of the commodity forward contracts on the settlement date.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments
Fair value of commodity forward contracts is estimated on a regional basis, and they are based on the commodity prices available at exchange future markets, over the counter premium data quoted by market players and the expected freight costs estimated by the Group considering historical inland freight data.
As of June 30, 2024, fair value of commodity forward contracts is as follows:

12.    Advances to suppliers
Advances to suppliers arise from the “Cash purchases” modality, in which the Group advances payments to suppliers of agricultural inputs at the beginning of a harvest and before the actual physical delivery of the products. These advances are short-term and are part of the strategy of formation of margins and guarantee of quality and product supply.

13.    Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities
Accounting policy
The Group leases commercial buildings for its administrative functions, retail stores, equipment, and vehicles. In general, lease agreements have a term of three years to eight years, but they may include extension options.
Lease terms are individually negotiated and contain differentiated terms and conditions. The lease contracts do not contain restrictive clauses, but the leased assets cannot be used as collateral for loans.
Right of use assets:
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
Vehicles
3.5 years
Buildings
5.3 years
Machines and equipment
3 years
Lease liabilities:
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include:
fixed payments (including fixed payments in essence, less any incentives from
amounts expected to be paid by the lessee in accordance with residual value guarantees;
payments of fines for lease termination if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising the option to terminate the lease.
lease payments are discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate a lessee would have to pay on a loan to obtain the funds
image_30.jpg
F-60

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
necessary to acquire an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with equivalent terms and conditions.
In determining the incremental borrowing rate, the Group:
whenever possible, uses as a starting point rates from recent financing contracts third-party financing, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since such third-party financing was received;
uses a progressive approach that starts from a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk
uses a progressive approach that takes a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by the Group with no recent third-party financing; and
makes specific adjustments to the rate, such as to term and collateral.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance expense. Finance expense is recognized in the statements of profit or loss over the lease term to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each year.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and all and leases of low-value assets are recognized as incurred as an expense in income statements. Short-term leases are those with a term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets include IT equipment, small items of office furniture and other contracts of small value.
As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Group had no lease agreements with variable lease payments.

14.    Property, plant and equipment
Accounting policy
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at historical cost of acquisition or construction, less accumulated depreciation. When significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are recorded as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Any gains and losses on the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the statements of profit or loss. Subsequent costs are capitalized only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will be earned by the Group.
Depreciation is calculated and its residual values estimated, using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the items. Depreciation is recognized in the statements of profit or loss. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Vehicles
5 years
Building and Improvements
25 years
Machines, equipment and facilities
10 years
Furnitures and fixtures
10 years
Computer equipments
5 years
The Group uses an estimated useful life of the assets to depreciate property, plant and equipment. At the end of each fiscal year, this estimate is reviewed and, if necessary, adjusted prospectively.
An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount when the asset's carrying amount is higher than its estimated recoverable value.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds from the sale with the carrying amount and are recognized under "Other (expenses) income, net" in the statements of profit or loss.

15.    Intangible assets
Accounting policy
Intangible assets are recorded at acquisition cost, or at the fair value of intangible assets when acquired in a business combination. Amortization for assets with finite useful lives is recorded on a straight-line basis, net of accumulated amortization. These intangible assets have useful lives defined based on the useful economic life.
The goodwill arising on a business combination is initially measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired (net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed). Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost, less any accumulated impairment losses, as described in Note 16.
The useful lives and methods of amortization of intangibles are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
The estimated useful lives of intangible assets for the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
Customer relationship
9 years
Purchase contracts and brands
4 years
Software and other
5 years
An intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected, and any gain or loss is recognized in the statements of profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.
The impairment policy for intangibles is described in note 16.

image_54.jpg
16.    Impairment testing of non-financial assets
Accounting policy
The carrying amount of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to assess whether there is an indication of impairment. This indication may be due to internal factors arising from the operational efficiency of the assets or external factors due to the macroeconomic scenario and the behavior of the commodity prices and the U.S. dollar. If there is such indication, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the higher of the fair value of the asset and the value in use of its CGU, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets.
When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and a provision for impairment is recognized to adjust the carrying amount to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flow is discounted to present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.
Impairment losses are recognized in the statements of profit or loss in expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset, when applicable. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized, except in the case of goodwill that cannot be reversed in future periods.
The Group assessed its business segments by grouping the assets of each region into independent cash-generating units (“CGUs”), which represent the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The Group determines its cash flows based on the budgets approved by its management, which use the following assumptions: (i) revenue growth rate (ii) operating margin; and (iii) discount rates that reflect specific risks of each CGU. These assumptions are subject to risks and uncertainties such as future market or economic conditions and those related to sales of each CGUs. Therefore, it is
image_30.jpg
F-68

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
possible that changes in circumstances may alter these projections, which may affect the recoverable amount of the assets.
Business segments are composed by certain CGUs as follows:
Segment
Identified CGUs
Latam Ag Retail
Colombia CGU
Brazil Ag Retail
North CGU, East CGU, South CGU
Crop Care
Biological products and special fertilizers CGU
Goodwill arising from business combinations are allocated to the CGUs that benefited from the acquisition and are tested for impairment at that level.
The Group consistently monitors whether new CGUs are identified, and whether they are justifiable.
Value in use calculation in the impairment test
The value in use calculation is based on a DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) model. The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Group is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the performance of the assets of the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. These estimates are the most relevant for the impairment test of goodwill recognized by the Group.
The recoverable amount of the Group’s CGUs has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by Board of Officers, covering a period of five years.

Cash-generating unit
Revenue growth rate
Inputs Operating margin average
Pre Tax discount rate
Recoverable amount
Colombia CGU
    7.90    %
    17.10    %
    22.00    %

Biological products and special fertilizers CGU
    14.30    %
    44.60    %
    18.50    %
    682,016    
The Group carried out a sensitivity analysis of the impairment test considering the following independent scenarios of key assumptions deterioration, as follows: (i) an increase of 200 basis points in the pre-tax discount rate; and (ii) a decrease of 500 points in the net revenue and its impacts on the free cash flow over the five-year forecasted period. The sensitivity analysis results did not indicate an impairment loss on the CGUs carrying amounts.
As a result of this analysis, the Group did not record any impairment loss. As the value in use of these assets is significantly higher than their carrying amount, there was no reasonably possible change in a key assumption that would trigger any impairment recognition.
17.    Trade payables
Accounting policy
Trade payables related to the purchase of goods for resale of agricultural inputs are financial liabilities (see Note 7) initially recognized at fair value and subsequently stated at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

The average effective interest rate used to discount trade payables for the year ended June 30, 2024 was 1.55% per month (1.58% as of June 30, 2023).
(b)Guarantees
The Group acquires guarantees with financial institutions in connection with installment purchases of agricultural inputs from certain suppliers. These guarantees are represented by short-term bank guarantees and endorsement to the supplier of CPRs obtained from customers in the sale process. The amount of these guarantees as of June 30, 2024 was R$1,082,199 (R$920,870 as of June 30, 2023).
(c)Trades payable — Supplier finance
During the year ended June, 30, 2023, the Group signed agreements with financial institutions to negotiate with suppliers to extend the payment terms and discounting of trade receivable from its suppliers, with interest rates ranging from 1% and 1.5% per month. When trade payable is included in this transaction, such amount is transferred from “Trade Payables” to “Trades payable — Supplier finance”. The Group did not sign supplier finance agreements for the year ended June 30, 2024 and settled the entire balance of operations in this year.
18.    Borrowings

19.    Obligations to FIAGRO quota holders
On July 22, 2022, the Group entered into an agreement to transfer receivables to FIAGRO, a structured entity, as defined by IFRS 10, established under Brazilian law designed specifically for investing in agribusiness credit rights receivables. The acquisition of such receivables by the FIAGRO investment fund enables the Group to anticipate the receipt of funds from such receivables.
The Group holds all subordinated quotas issued by the FIAGRO, representing approximately 5% of the total outstanding quotas in an aggregate amount of R$8,100 while other parties hold all senior and mezzanine quotas, representing approximately 95% of the total outstanding quotas, which includes certain of Patria’s related parties that acquired the mezzanine quotas of FIAGRO in an aggregate amount of R$56,000. Under the terms of the FIAGRO, we are not liable in case there is a default on the credit rights acquired by the fund, but any such default may adversely affect our stake in FIAGRO quotas. Our agreement to assign certain credit rights to FIAGRO will expire when all assigned receivables have been liquidated.
The bylaws of the FIAGRO were established by the Group at their inception, and grant the Group significant decision-making authority over these entities, such as the right to determine which credits rights are eligible to be acquired by the FIAGRO.

image_54.jpg
In addition, senior and mezzanine quota holders receive interest at a benchmark rate of return ranging from the CDI rate +2.45% per year up to the CDI rate +8.0% per year. Residual returns from the FIAGRO fund, if any, are paid on the subordinated quotas, which do not bear interest and are not otherwise entitled to any pre-established rate of return. Senior and mezzanine quotas amortize annually over a three-year period after an initial 24-month grace period, whereas subordinated quotas amortize at the end of the fifth annual period.
In accordance with IFRS 10, we concluded we control FIAGRO and, therefore, it is consolidated in our financial statements. The senior and mezzanine quotas are accounted for as a financial liability under “Obligations to FIAGRO quota holders” and the remuneration paid to senior and mezzanine quota holders is recorded as interest expense.

22.    Acquisition of subsidiaries
Accounting policy
The acquisition method is used to account for each business combination carried out by the Group, which consists of the following:
Determining the acquisition date;
Determining the acquirer and the acquiree;
Determining the consideration transferred for the acquisition of control;
Determining the fair value of separately identifiable assets and liabilities; and
Determining the residual goodwill or gain on bargain purchase.
The acquisition date is typically the date on which the Group assumes the control of the business.
Consideration transferred is measured at the acquisition date at the fair value of the assets transferred, including cash, the liabilities incurred, and the equity instruments issued by the Group at the acquisition date.
For each business combination, the Group measures the non-controlling interests in the acquiree based on its share of the subsidiary’s identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred.
When the Group acquires a business, it assesses the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed in order to allocate them according to the contractual terms, economic circumstances and pertinent conditions at the acquisition date.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer is recognized at the acquisition date fair value. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration, considered an asset or a liability, shall be recognized in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, in the statements of profit or loss.
Goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase is the difference between the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the consideration transferred. When the consideration transferred is higher than the fair value of the net assets acquired goodwill is recognized for the difference, and it is subsequently tested for impairment. When the consideration transferred is lower that the fair value of net assets acquired, a gain on bargain purchase is recognized in the statements of profit or loss.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
Intangible assets recognized within the scope of a business combination are accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 15.
Critical accounting estimates and judgments
Accounting for business combination requires the Group to exercise judgment in determining the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the businesses being acquired. Accordingly, the Group makes certain assumptions about future conditions that are uncertain, including future commodity prices, interest rates, inflation and weather conditions.
Changes in some of these assumptions may impact the Group’s business and expected results may differ materially from the estimated amounts at the acquisition date.
The Group entered into several agreements to acquire groups of companies to expand its business into new markets or territories, add additional facilities, bolster its competitive edge, or acquire and access new technologies and skillsets.

There were no differences between accounting basis and tax basis on fair value adjustments, and therefore no deferred income taxes were recorded, except for Provecampo, Cenagro and Cenagral, where the Group recorded a corresponding deferred income tax liability of R$5,298 since the Group does not have a viable tax plan that will permit that the accounting basis and tax basis be the same after the acquisition.
(e)Acquisition of Referência Agroinsumos
On February 28, 2023, the Group signed an agreement for the acquisition of Referência Agroinsumos Ltda, (“Referência Agroinsumos”), establishing the terms and other conditions for its acquisition.
The acquisition was completed on July 31, 2023. The purchase price for this transaction was R$67.1 million, of which R$35.0 million is expected to be paid one year after the closing date. The Group currently indirectly owns 65.52% Referência Agroinsumos through Distribuidora Pitangueiras de Produtos Agropecuários S.A. which directly owns a 70% interest at Referência Agroinsumos.
Goodwill is attributable to strong market position and geographic regions and will result in a more diversified portfolio, as well as expected future profitability and operational synergies, such as distribution and efficiency of the administrative structure and revenue growth.

(t)Signed agreement for future acquisitions
The Group signed an agreement on August 25, 2022, for the acquisition of an 82% interest in NS Agro S.A. (“NS Agro”), establishing the terms and other conditions for its acquisition. The precedent conditions for this transaction were not completed by August 31, 2023 and the parties subsequently canceled the agreement. As a result, the consideration which was transferred in advance for this acquisition amounting to R$14,924 was not recovered and was therefore transferred to other operating income during the year ended on June 30, 2024.
23.    Accounting considerations related to the SPAC Transaction
On February 28, 2023, Lavoro and TPB Acquisition Corp, consummated a capital reorganization transaction as described in note 1.b. Warrants and forward purchase agreements were assumed in the SPAC Transaction.
Critical accounting estimates and judgments
Accounting of SPAC transaction is considered a critical accounting estimate primarily due to the complex nature of the transaction, including the determination the accounting acquirer and assess it as a corporate reorganization, the calculation of the listing expenses and the determination of the accounting treatment of the financial instruments.
Changes in some of these assumptions could impact the consolidated financial statements.
Accordingly, the Group recorded a listing expense as follows:

As of February 27, 2023
Deemed cost of shares issued to TPB Acquisition Corp shareholders (i)
    893,613    
Less: Net assets of TPB Acquisition Corp at historical cost
    (574,059)

(i)The key assumption for the estimated fair value is the opening quoted market price of $9.55 per share as of March 1, 2023 translated considering the foreign exchange rate reported by the Brazilian Central Bank of $1.00 to R$5.21.
Warrants
TPB Acquisition Corp. issued 10,083,606 public and private warrants to certain of its shareholders and its maturity is February 28, 2028. Such public and private warrants were assumed by Lavoro as a result of the SPAC Transaction. The outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2024, is 10,083,592 and aggregate fair value of the private and public warrants is 22,421, and the warrants are reported in the consolidated statements of financial position as warrant liabilities under current liabilities. For the year, the Group recognized a gain of R$14,024 related to changes to the fair value of public warrants and private warrants. The fair value of the warrants was calculated based on the listed market price of such warrants.
Vesting founder shares and unvested founder shares
As part of the SPAC Transaction certain TPB Acquisition Corp.’s shareholders were issued a number of Lavoro ordinary shares in exchange of TPB Acquisition Corp.’s Class B Ordinary Share that they held prior to the completion of the SPAC Transaction, of which (i) Two-thirds (3,060,662) of such Lavoro ordinary share were deemed to be vesting founder share, and (ii) one-third (1,503,025) of such Lavoro ordinary share were issued to those shareholders.
Vesting founder shares will be subject to certain vesting conditions. If at any time during the 3-year period following the close of the SPAC Transaction, for over any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30 trading day period, the closing share price of Lavoro ordinary share is greater than or equal to:
-$12.50, then one-half of the vesting founder shares will vest; and
-$15.00, then an additional one-half of the vesting founder shares will vest.
Lavoro’s ordinary share price targets will be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, cash dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting Lavoro’s ordinary shares. Any vesting founder shares that will not vest during the 3-year period following the closing of the SPAC Transaction will be forfeited after the 3-year period.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
The vesting founder shares are considered equity classified contingent considerations under IFRS 2 and are reported as additional paid-in capital under equity at June 30, 2023.
In order to determine the fair value of the Vesting Founder Shares as of the closing of the SPAC Transaction, a Monte Carlo simulation was used, where the future stock price was modeled such that it follows a geometric Brownian motion with constant drift and volatility, where volatility was based on quoted prices of comparable companies. A volatility rate of 54.4% and a risk-free rate of 4.51% were used in the model. Value per share was $9.53 and $8.53 for the shares vesting at $12.50 and $15.00, respectively. In order to determine the fair value of the Unvested Founder Shares as of the closing of the SPAC Transaction, the shares were discounted using a Finnerty put model, assuming a risk-free rate of 4.88%, volatility rate of 54.4%, and a restricted term of 3 months (the estimated time to complete a registration statement). Value per share was determined to be $10.08.
Forward share purchase agreements
TPB Acquisition Corp. entered into certain Forward Share Purchase Agreements with certain shareholders of TPB Acquisition Corp., in which TPB Acquisition Corp. agreed to purchase, in the aggregate, up to 2,830,750 of TPB Acquisition Corp.’s Class A Ordinary Shares held by those equity holders, either after 24 months after closing of the SPAC Transaction or after meeting certain criteria as defined in the Forward Share Purchase Agreements. Such Forward Share Purchase Agreements were assumed by Lavoro, whereby Lavoro agreed to purchase the same number of Lavoro’s ordinary shares under the same conditions as defined in those Forward Share Purchase Agreements. Lavoro placed a designated balance of funds into an escrow account at the closing of the SPAC Transaction for the purpose acquiring such shares.
Lavoro’s Ordinary Shares subject to the Forward Share Purchase Agreement are considered financial liabilities and are recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position as Liability for FPA Shares in current liabilities at the amounts deposited in the escrow account. The designated balance of funds in the escrow account is reported in the consolidated statements of financial position as restricted cash. The amount of Liability for FPA Shares and the restricted cash was R$168,862 as of June 30, 2024.

24.    Income taxes
Accounting policy
(a)Current income tax
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the statements of profit or loss.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Income taxes in Brazil and Colombia are paid by each legal entity on a stand alone basis.
(b)Deferred tax
Deferred taxes is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their tax basis.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:
When the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss;
With respect to taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences,
image_30.jpg
F-91

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:
When the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred income tax asset to be recovered. In assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets, the Group relies on the same forecast assumptions used elsewhere in the financial statements and in other management reports.
The benefits of uncertain tax positions are recorded only after determining, based on the position of its internal and external legal advisors, a more-likely-than-not probability that the uncertain tax positions will withstand challenge, if any, from taxing authorities.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and where the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority.
Critical accounting estimates and judgments
Significant judgements, estimates and assumptions are required to determine the amount of deferred income tax assets that are recognized based on the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits, together with future tax planning strategies.
image_30.jpg
F-92

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
The Group applies significant judgement in the assessment of the realization of deferred income tax assets through the assessment of the Group's ability to generate sufficient future taxable profits and the implementation of the tax planning strategies to support the realization of the existing deferred income tax assets.

The Group has accumulated tax loss carryforwards in some subsidiaries in the amount as of June 30, 2024 of R$547,354 (R$187,310 for June 30, 2023) for which a deferred income tax asset was not recognized and are available indefinitely for offsetting against future taxable profits of the companies in which the losses arose. Deferred income tax assets have not been recognized with respect of these losses as they cannot be used to offset taxable profits between subsidiaries of the Group, and there is no other evidence of probable recoverability in the near future.

28.    Equity
The fully subscribed and paid-in share capital as of June 30, 2024 is R$591, represented by 116,608,329 ordinary shares.
Our authorized share capital is US$1,500,000 consisting of 1,400,000,000 Ordinary Shares and 100,000,000 preferred shares.
Ordinary Shares
Lavoro ordinary shares have a par value of US$0.001 and are entitled to one vote per share, , excepted the 3,006,049 Founder Shares, that were detailed in Note 23.
Other capital reserves
Other capital reserves is comprised of a reserve set-up by the Group share-based payment (an equity-settled share-based compensation plan).
Share based payment
Accounting policy for share based payment
Equity-settled transactions
The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made using an appropriate valuation model. That cost is recognized in personnel expenses (Note 30), together with a corresponding increase in equity (other capital reserves), over the period in which the service and, where applicable, the performance conditions are fulfilled (the vesting period). The cumulative expense recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.
Service conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions.
image_30.jpg
F-99

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vested irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.
When the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the grant date fair value of the unmodified award, provided the original vesting terms of the award are met. An additional expense, measured as at the date of modification, is recognized for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payment transaction, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee. Where an award is cancelled by the entity or by the counterparty, any remaining element of the fair value of the award is expensed immediately through profit or loss.
Share Options
On August 17, 2022, the Group approved the Lavoro Agro Holding S.A. Long-Term Incentive Policy (the “Lavoro Share Plan”). Under the Lavoro Share Plan, individuals selected by the Lavoro board of directors (“Selected Employees”) are eligible to receive incentive compensation consisting of cash, assets or share options issued by Lavoro Agro Limited, in an amount linked to the appreciation in the Lavoro Agro Limited share price at the time of the liquidity event, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, as described below.
Lavoro has granted share options as incentive compensation to Selected Employees. Share options granted under the Lavoro Share Plan will vest in the event the following market conditions are met (the “Market Conditions”):
(i)the occurrence of a liquidity event satisfying a minimum internal rate of return specified in the Lavoro Share Plan; and
(ii)the price per share obtained under such liquidity event must be greater than or equal to one of the following amounts:
(a)a pre-established reference price multiplied by three; or
(b)an amount calculated in accordance with a pre-established formula, in each case specified under the Lavoro Share Plan.
Moreover, upon the satisfaction of the Market Conditions, such share options will vest according to the following schedule (the “Service Conditions”):
(i)one-third of the options vest on the third anniversary of the grant date;

image_54.jpg
(ii)one-third of the options vest on the fourth anniversary of the grant date; and
(iii)one-third of the options vest on the fifth anniversary of the grant date.
The Lavoro Share Plan has a term of five years: if the Market Conditions have not been satisfied within this year, all options granted under the Lavoro Share Plan will be extinguished, with no further payment or incentive obligation remaining due by Lavoro. The consummation of the SPAC Transaction (see note 1) did not satisfy the Market Conditions.
As of February 28, 2023, the shareholders of Lavoro approved the Lavoro Share Plan. As a result, Lavoro reserved for issuance the number of ordinary shares equal to the number of Lavoro Share Plan Shares under the Lavoro Share Plan, as adjusted in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, in an amount of 1,663,405 ordinary shares.
The exercise price of the share-based payment is equal to the options price agreed with the employee in the contracts, representing the amount of R$1 monetarily adjusted until the date on which the liquidity event occurs.
The fair value of share options granted is estimated at the date of grant considering the terms and conditions using the Black-Scholes model, taking into account the terms and conditions on which the share options were granted. The model also takes into account historical and expected dividends, and the share price volatility of Lavoro.
The expense recognized for employee services received during the year and the number of options granted is shown in the following tables:

Earnings per share
Earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit (loss) for the year attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of common shares available during the fiscal year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares, presuming the conversion of all the potential diluted common shares.
The number of ordinary shares issued by Lavoro, as a result of the corporate reorganization is reflected retroactively, for purposes of calculating earnings prior to the reorganization.

The Group reported a loss for the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, accordingly the ordinary shares related to the share-based payment and RSU Plan have a non-dilutive effect and therefore were not considered in the total number of shares outstanding to determine the diluted earnings (loss) per share.
All public and private warrants are out of the money as of June 30, 2024 and 2023; therefore, the approximately 6,012,085 and 4,071,507 public and private warrants, respectively, were not included in the calculation of the diluted (loss) profit per share. Similarly, the 3,060,662 Founder Shares, that were detailed in Note 23 were not considered in the calculation of the diluted (loss) profit per share due to the Group’s market share price.
29.    Revenue from contracts with customers
Accounting policy
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the
image_30.jpg
F-104

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
(In thousands of Brazilian reais - R$, except if otherwise indicated)
image_54.jpg
consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For sales of grains see Note 11.
Revenue from the sale of agricultural inputs is recognized at the point in time when control of the product is transferred to the customer as follows:
(i)Retail sales – Sale of products in retail locations, or delivered to the customers, including crop protection, fertilizers, seeds and specialty inputs;
(ii)Grains – Sale of grains as a result of Barter transactions (Note 11);
(iii)Private Label products – Products delivered to the client such as biological, special fertilizers and off-patent.
When products are delivered to the customer revenue is recognized when the customer receives the product at the specified location. The Group engages third parties to provide freight services.
The Group provides pulverization services. The Group recognizes revenues from these services when the customer receives and consumes the benefits provided to them, at the time the pulverization services take place.
The Group generally acts as a principal as it has the primary responsibility for delivering the contracted goods, bears the inventory risk, and has discretion to establish the price.
Sales prices are substantially based on international benchmark market prices, which are variable and subject to global supply and demand, and other market factors. There are no general warranties to the customers. Returns and incentives are estimated based on historical and forecasted data, contractual terms, and current conditions. Transportation costs are generally recovered from the customer through sales pricing and is included in cost of goods sold.
Trade receivables usually include a significant financing component. As such, the transaction price is discounted, using the interest rate implicit in the contract (i.e., the interest rate that discounts the trade receivable amount to the cash selling

ranging from IBR Rate plus 1.0% to 2.53% and maturities ranging from July 2025 to July 2029. These new financing transactions are in line with our business plan and reflect the seasonality of our business as the last quarter usually demands additional working capital.
Agribusiness Credit Rights Investment Fund (FIDC-Fiagro)
On August 02, 2024, we entered into an agreement to transfer receivables in the aggregate amount of R$310 million to Lavoro Agro Fundo de Investimentos nas Cadeias Produtivas Agroindustriais (FIDIC - Fiagro) an investment fund legal structure established under Brazilian law designed specifically for investing in agribusiness credit rights receivables. The proceeds from this issuance will be used to support Lavoro's ongoing working capital needs and other general corporate purposes. This represents Lavoro's second FIDC-Fiagro facility, following the inaugural R$160 million Fiagro established in 2022.The Fiagro fund was structured with 80% senior quotas bearing interest at a benchmark rate of return ranging from the CDI rate + 3.5% per year. The remaining percentage is paid on the subordinated quotas, which generate a benchmark return rate of CDI + 100% per year. The senior quotas are amortized semiannually over a three-year period, while the subordinated quotas are amortized at the maturity of the agreement.
Share Exchange
The non-controlling shareholders of our subsidiaries Agrozap and Produtiva have negotiated with Lavoro to exchange their shares in these companies for shares of Lavoro Limited. Upon the completion of this transaction, these shareholders will no longer hold non-controlling positions in these subsidiaries. This exchange reflects Lavoro's commitment to enhancing its ownership structure and integrating operations across its portfolio.
Pátria Loan Approval
The directors of Lavoro Limited has approved a loan of up to USD35 million from Pátria Funds to the Company. The proceeds from the initial tranche of this loan, amounting to USD16 million, was received by the Group on October 30, 2024. This financing to reinforce working capital, preserving and strengthening the capital structure and cash position.
