‌EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The pulp market experienced positive performance in the first quarter, with successive price increases driven by stronger paper demand, despite seasonality and geopolitical uncertainties.

In this context, despite the price recovery during the period, the Company's pulp business results compared to 4Q25 were impacted by lower sales volumes due to seasonality and by the depreciation of the US$ against the average R$. When compared to the same period of 2025, the Company recorded higher sales volumes and increased pulp prices, which were offset by the strong currency appreciation. Cash production costs, excluding downtimes, performed in line with expectations, with a slight increase versus the previous quarter and no impact from the Middle East conflict. On a year-over-year basis, cash production costs declined. This combination of factors resulted in a reduction in Pulp Adjusted EBITDA both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. In the paper business unit, sales volumes declined primarily due to seasonality versus 4Q25, while lower prices-also impacted by the stronger average R$-affected results versus 1Q25, leading to a reduction in Adjusted EBITDA in both comparisons. As a result, consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter totaled R$4.6 billion, down 18% compared to 4Q25 and 6% versus the same period of 2025. Operating cash flow generation reached R$2.5 billion in the quarter, representing a 31% decrease versus 4Q25 and a 4% decline year-over-year.

As for financial management in 1Q26, net debt measured in US$ totaled US$13.0 billion, a 3% increase compared to the previous quarter, resulting in a slight increase in US$ leverage to 3.3x (4Q25: 3.2x). The FX hedging policy continued to fulfill its role, with average strikes for Zero Cost Collar transactions set at 5.97 (put) and 6.90 (call), with a notional amount of US$5.6 billion. Regarding hedging of oil related inputs, Zero Cost Collar operations closed 1Q26 contracted at US$56.89/bbl (put) and US$68.67/bbl (call), with a notional amount of US$336 million, under which the Company records positive cash adjustments when Brent exceeds the call strike levels. During the quarter, Suzano recorded R$48 million in positive cash adjustments from its hedge portfolio, mitigating, in cash flow terms, the energy cost pressures arising from the Middle East conflict.

In line with its long-term strategy and continued focus on environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters, Suzano continues to make consistent progress in its sustainability strategy, aligned with its business model. During the period, MSCI announced an upgrade of Suzano's ESG rating to BBB, reflecting the evaluator's recognition of the Company's progress in management practices in line with international best practices.

‌PULP BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

‌PULP SALES VOLUME AND REVENUE

The first quarter of 2026 was marked by the ongoing implementation of announced pulp price increases, amid heightened geopolitical uncertainty. The escalation of the conflict between Iran and the United States has led to pressure in production and logistics costs for the pulp and paper industry.

In China, the hardwood pulp market was supported by both supply and demand. On the supply side, notable factors included the postponement announcement of a major market pulp project and production constraints due to limited wood availability in Indonesia. On the demand side, total paper production grew by 14.7% compared to 1Q25, according to SCI, influenced by geopolitical uncertainties. Port inventories closed the quarter at approximately 2.7 million tonnes, according to SCI, above the level observed in the same period of the prior year, but largely composed of softwood, based on market indications.

In Europe, according to Utipulp, consumption of hardwood pulp in the first two months of the year grew by 1.7% year-over-year, while softwood pulp recorded a decline of 8.5%, maintaining a commonly observed demand dynamic between fiber types. The region was specially affected by rising energy and chemicals costs, which put additional pressure on local producers of pulp and paper. In North America, the sanitary paper market remained stable, supporting pulp demand in the region.

On the supply side, the quarter was marked by continued announcements of unscheduled downtimes mainly for hardwood pulp and a concentration of maintenance scheduled downtimes in Latin America, including Suzano's operations. Furthermore, logistical challenges resulting from the geopolitical scenario impacted the supply environment at the start of 2026.

The average PIX/FOEX indices for hardwood pulp in China increased by 9.4% compared to 4Q25. In Europe, they increased 11.9% compared to 4Q25. The difference between softwood and hardwood pulp prices in the quarter was US$103/t in China and US$381/t in Europe based on gross prices.

Suzano's pulp sales decreased by 17% when compared to the previous quarter due to the seasonality of the period, with a notable reduction in volumes to Asia and North America, totaling 2,835 thousand tonnes. Compared to 1Q25, the increase was 7%, mainly driven by the increases observed in Asia and North America.
