Opinions on the Financial Statements and
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PagSeguro Digital Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal
Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Revenue recognition
As described in Note 2.15 to the consolidated financial statements, revenue comprises mainly fees charged for the electronic intermediation of the purchases made through the Company's electronic platform, and financial income mostly related to early payments made to merchants. Revenues from the intermediation transactions are recognized when the purchase transaction is approved by the financial institutions (card issuers) and the Company’s performance obligation related to the electronic validation of the transaction is completed, while financial income is recognized when the payment to the merchant is anticipated. The Company recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022 as "revenue from transaction activities and other services", substantially related to electronic intermediation fees, and "financial income", mostly related to early payments to merchants, the amounts of R$ 8,906,406 thousand and R$ 6,252,735 thousand, respectively, as described in Note 23 to the consolidated financial statements.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition is a critical audit matter are (i) the complex information technology environment used to process a high volume of transactions with individually low amounts, resulting in a significant volume of data being extracted from the systems of the Company which needs to be reconciled with general ledger before being used for the audit procedures purpose and (ii) effort in performing audit procedures and in evaluating audit evidence considering the high volume and nature of data.

imagem2.jpg
Our approach to addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included understanding and testing the effectiveness of controls relating to revenue recognition process. The procedures also included, among others, (1) reconciliation of the data extracted from the systems with the general ledger, (2) performing audit procedures over the information technology general controls of the Company's systems, (3) test the mathematical accuracy of the revenue recognized as a percentage of the transactions selected, also testing if the percentages applied for these transactions were in accordance with the applicable agreements, (4) performing, on a sample basis, cash collection inspection for the transactions selected and (5) evaluating the sufficiency of the Company's disclosures.
Measurement of expected credit losses for loans and credit card receivables
As described in Notes 2.6, 3.2 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements, management measures the expected credit losses at the probability-weighted estimate of credit losses, which involves management's judgment, as set forth in IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments. As at December 31, 2022, the expected credit losses on (i) loans and (ii) credit card receivables were R$ 521,929 thousand and R$ 451,285 thousand, respectively. The balance of (i) loans and (ii) credit card receivables as at December 31, 2022, was R$ 743,379 thousand and R$ 1,112,510 thousand, respectively. Management calculates expected credit losses (‘ECL') using collective models, probability of default (‘PD'), loss given default (‘LGD') and exposure at default (‘EAD'). The ECL measurement is based on management's estimate of present value expected to be received, which uses assumptions as the historical loss experience, credit quality and guarantees, economic factors and estimated future cash flows. In this assessment, management has considered forward-looking information, changes in macroeconomic scenarios, impacting the calculation model for provisioning expected credit losses.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the measurement of expected credit losses is a critical audit matter are (i) there was significant judgment used by management in determining the expected credit losses, considering the severity of past due loans and credit card receivables during the current year and also the significant assumptions used in determining the PD, EAD and LGD, which in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and in evaluating audit evidence obtained relating to these significant assumptions; and (ii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating those significant assumptions.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included understanding and testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management's measurement of expected credit losses, which included controls over the assumptions used. These procedures also included, among others: (i) the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in testing management's process for determining the expected credit losses, including evaluating the appropriateness of the methodology and models, testing the accuracy and completeness of data used, and evaluating the reasonableness of significant assumptions; (ii) the analysis of management's accounting policies in comparison with IFRS 9; and (iii) evaluating the sufficiency of the Company's disclosures.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of Pagseguro Digital Ltd. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process under the supervision of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer and effected by the Company's Statutory Audit Committee, the Company's Board of Directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with and in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with and in compliance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, is based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2022 the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
As of December 31, 2022
(All amounts in thousands of reais unless otherwise stated)

1.1     Additional Information
i) Covid-19
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company observed that, in the first three months, there was an increase in the number of people infected by COVID-19 and consequently the return of partial shutdowns and social isolation in several cities and states of the country. In the second quarter of 2021, most of the cities in Brazil accelerated the vaccination of the population, and consequently, the Company saw a graduate reopening process, with the extension of opening hours of commercial activities. In the third and fourth quarters of 2021, the Company observed the return of social events of the public, and consequently the growth of transaction payment volume (“TPV”).
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Brazil observed a decrease in the number of people infected and the total deaths caused by COVID-19, and social events and commercial activities generally returned to a level similar to that observed before the pandemic. These circumstances resulted in higher TPV and consequently higher revenues for the Company.
The Company has a significant variable cost structure mainly related to TPV, such as processing, interchange, card scheme fees and chargebacks. Marketing and sales expenses are also variable and depend on the Company’s strategy to leverage new products and services such as PagBank. The Company is also still accompanying the evolution of the Brazilian economy and reassessing, when necessary, the provisions for loss allowance for expected credit losses.
ii) MOIP incident
MOIP, which represented less than 3% of the Group’s consolidated assets as of December 31, 2021 and less than 2% and 1% of the consolidated revenue and net income for the year ended December 31, 2021, was involved in a cyberattack between September 25 and September 29, 2021 (the “Incident”). The hackers demanded that the Company make a specified payment to prevent the public disclosure or sale of the targeted hacked data that was compromised in the Incident, which included personal profile information of MOIP customers.
At the time of the Incident, MOIP had a distinct and separate IT server and operating environment from the rest of PagSeguro’s IT platform and systems, and therefore none of PagSeguro’s databases, customer information or systems were subject to the Incident, or formed part of the compromised data, beyond those independently within the MOIP IT environment. PagSeguro promptly followed the requirements of applicable Brazilian law, including the filing of a formal report to the Brazilian National Authority for Data Protection (Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados) and Brazilian Central Bank on October 7, 2021.

1.1     Additional Information (continued)
After completion of the assessment, without financial impact, PagSeguro communicated to the ANPD on January 5, 2022 through a complementary form to the one initially reported in October 2021. During the review of the Incident, PagSeguro did not identified evidence of unauthorized access to sensitive information, such as passwords or credit card details.
PagSeguro confirms that the Incident has not had a material adverse financial impact on the Company or on its customers, and PagSeguro’s IT systems (including MOIP’s IT environment) are operating normally, with heightened security measures undertaken in response to the Incident.
iii) Ukraine and Russia Conflict
Furthermore, geopolitical instability arising from conflicts, such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, and the resulting imposition of sanctions, taxes or tariffs against Russia, and Russia’s response to such sanctions (including retaliatory acts, such as cyberattacks and sanctions against other countries) could adversely affect the global economy or specific international, regional and domestic markets, including the Brazilian market. Such events could have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance through increased worldwide inflation, greater compliance costs, higher volatility in foreign currency exchange rates, destabilized supply chains and further market disruptions, including cyberattacks targeting technologies that we rely on or the markets in which we or our customers operate. At this moment, the Company does not see any significant impact on its operations as a result of the conflict.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies
2.1.    Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and disclose all (and only) the applicable significant information related to the financial statements, which is consistent with the information utilized by management in the performance of its duties. The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Brazilian reais, unless otherwise indicated, which is the functional currency of PagSeguro Group.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying PagSeguro Group'’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 3.
These consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 and for the three years ended December 2022, were authorized for issuance by PagSeguro Digital'’s Board of Directors on February 28, 2023.
2.2.    Basis of consolidation
PagSeguro Group consolidates all entities over which it has control. Control is achieved when PagSeguro Group is exposed or has rights to variable returns with its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns through its power over the investee's relevant activities.
Subsidiaries are all entities over which PagSeguro Digital has control. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date PagSeguro Group obtains control of the subsidiary and ceases when PagSeguro Group loses control of the subsidiary. The subsidiaries included in the consolidation are described in Note 4.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

2.3.    Foreign currencies
i)Transactions and balances
    Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency sport rates of exchange at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of these transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the statement of income.
    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.
ii)     Group companies
    On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Reais at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit or loss are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
    The exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognized in OCI. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of OCI relating to that particular foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss.
2.4.    Cash and cash equivalents
    Cash and cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash needs and not for investment or any other purposes. PagSeguro Group classifies as cash equivalents a financial investment that can be immediately converted into a known amount of cash and is subject to immaterial risk of change in value. PagSeguro Group classifies financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents.
2.5.    Financial instruments - initial recognition and subsequent measurement
    i) Financial assets
    Initial recognition and measurement
    Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition and subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income ("OCI"), and fair value through profit or loss. The classification 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.
    For a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortized cost or fair value through OCI, 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.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    The Group's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets 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 to collect contractual cash flows while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through OCI are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling (such as the financial investment disclosed on Note 7).
    Financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, financial investments, accounts receivable, judicial deposits and other receivables.
    Subsequent measurement
    The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification, which may be (i) financial assets at amortized cost; (ii) financial assets at fair value through OCI with recycling of cumulative gains and losses (debt instruments); (iii) financial assets designated at fair value through OCI with no recycling of cumulative gains and losses upon derecognition (equity instruments); and (iv) financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
    Financial assets at amortized cost
    Financial assets at amortized cost relating to debt instruments are subsequently measured using the effective interest method and are subject to impairment. Financial assets at amortized cost relating to equity instruments are measured at cost of acquisition. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized, modified, or impaired.
    The Group’s financial assets at amortized cost includes cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, judicial deposits, investments, and other receivables.
    Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
    Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are presented at fair value in the balance sheet, with the corresponding gains or losses recognized in the statement of income. The Group does not hold any financial asset within this category.
    Financial assets at fair value through OCI
    For debt instruments at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognized in the statement of profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognized in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value change recognized in OCI is recycled to profit or loss.
    The Group's debt instruments at fair value through OCI includes investments in Brazilian Treasury Bonds, as disclosed in Note 7.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    Financial assets designated at fair value through OCI (equity instruments)
    Upon initial recognition, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of equity under IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation and are not held for trading. The classification is determined on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Gains and losses on these financial assets are never recycled to profit or loss. The Group does not hold any financial asset within this category.
    Derecognition
    A financial asset or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets, is derecognized when:
The rights to receive cash flows from the asset expire; or
PagSeguro Group transfers its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or assumes an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full to a third party under a "pass-through" arrangement; and (a) transfers virtually all the risks and benefits of the asset, or (b) neither transfers nor retains virtually all the risks and benefits of the asset, but transfers control of the asset.
    When PagSeguro Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset and has not transferred or retained substantially all the risks and benefits of the asset, this asset is recognized to the extent of PagSeguro Group's continuing involvement in the asset. In such case, PagSeguro Group also recognizes an associated liability.
    The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that PagSeguro Group has retained.
    Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of the consideration that PagSeguro Group may be required to repay.
ii)     Impairment of financial assets
    PagSeguro Group assesses at the balance sheet date, if there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. The Group recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses ("ECLs") for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

(All amounts in thousands of reais unless otherwise stated)

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    ECLs are recognized in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).
    The Group applies a credit risk policy taking into consideration the possibility of default by: (a) the card issuers, which have the obligation of transferring to the credit and debit card labels the fees charged for the transactions carried out by their card holders, and/or (b) the acquirers, which are used by the PagSeguro Group to approve transactions with the issuers. To mitigate this risk, the PagSeguro Group has established a Credit and Liquidity Risk Committee, whose responsibility is to assess the level of risk of each of the card issuers served by PagSeguro Group, as discussed in Note 26.
    For debt instruments at fair value through OCI, the Group applies the low credit risk simplification. At every reporting date, the Group evaluates whether the debt instrument is considered to have low credit risk using all reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort. In making that evaluation, the Group reassesses the internal credit rating of the debt instrument. The Group's debt instruments at fair value through OCI comprise solely investments in Brazilian Treasury Bonds, considered to be low credit risk investments.
iii)     Financial liabilities
    Initial recognition and measurement
    Financial liabilities are classified at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or amortized cost. PagSeguro Group determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition.
    Financial liabilities include payables to third parties, payables to related parties, trade payables and other payables.
    Subsequent measurement
    The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, which may be as follows:
    Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
    Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include held-for-trading financial liabilities and financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition. Financial liabilities and the corresponding specific derivatives entered into with the objective of protecting against the fair value exposure risk are also designated at fair value hedge.
    Financial liabilities are classified as held-for-trading if acquired for sale in the short term. This category includes derivative financial instruments which do not meet the hedge accounting criteria defined by IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments.
    Gains and losses on held-for-trading liabilities are recognized in the statement of income.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    Financial liabilities at amortized cost
    After initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method, and are recognized in the statement of income.
    Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortization is included in "Financial expenses" in the statement of income.
    Derecognition
    A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation is discharged, canceled, or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the statement of income.
iv)     Financial instruments - offsetting
    Financial assets and liabilities are presented net in the balance sheet if, and only if, there is an existing and enforceable legal right to offset the amounts recognized and an intention to offset or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
v)     Fair value of financial instruments
    The fair value of financial instruments actively traded in organized markets is determined based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date, without a deduction of transaction costs.
    The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. These techniques include the use of recent arm's length transactions, reference to other similar instruments, discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation methods.
vi)     Current versus non-current classification
    The PagSeguro Group presents financial assets and liabilities in the balance sheet based on current and non-current classification. An asset is current when it is: (i) expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the normal operating cycle; (ii) held primarily for the purpose of trading; (iii) expected to be realized within twelve months after the reporting period; or (iv) 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: (i) it is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle; (ii) it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; (iii) it is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period; or (iv) there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
vii)     Derivative Financial Instruments
    Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered, and they are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The accounting for subsequent changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the item being hedged.
    At inception of the hedge relationship, the group documents the economic relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, including whether changes in the cash flows of the hedging instruments are expected to offset changes in the cash flows of hedged items.
    If the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to the carrying amount of a hedged item for which the effective interest method is used is amortized to profit or loss over the remaining period until maturity, using a recalculated effective interest rate.
2.6.    Accounts receivable
    Accounts receivable include mainly (i) the receivables from credit/debit card issuers and acquirers originated from transactions through PagSeguro Group payment platform and credit operations and (ii) loans, credit card receivables and payroll loans and other credit operations. Accounts receivables are initially recorded at the fair value net of the expected credit losses. If the term is equivalent to one year or less, accounts receivable is classified as current assets, if not, as non-current assets.
    For debit and credit cards receivables from the clients, since they are comprised of transactions approved by large financial institutions that have a low overall risk level based on ratings received from major credit rating agencies, the Company assess it’s expected credit risk as low. This assessment is constantly updated considering other external factors, such as credit ratings assigned by FITCH, S&P and Moody's.
    PagSeguro Group incurs financial expenses when an election to receive early payment of accounts receivable from financial institutions is made. This financial expense is recognized at the time the financial institution agrees to liquidate the accounts receivable due in installments on a prepaid basis, and it is recorded as Financial expenses in the statement of income.
    For loans, credit card receivables and payroll loans and other credit operations, the methodology for determining the allowance for impairment loss is periodically reviewed, and calculated based on the multiplication of the following factors:
Exposure at Default (EAD): amount exposed to credit risk at default;
Probability of Default (PD): probability of the counterparty not meeting its contractual payment obligations; and
Loss Given Default (LGD): percentage of the exposure that is not expected to be recovered in the event of default.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    PagSeguro uses a credit risk rating model that assesses the risk of insolvency and default of counterparties, the methodologies and rules of which are defined in internal rules and policies. The main purpose of this credit risk rating model is to rate the likelihood of a customer to default, called Probability of Default (PD), by using objective factors that combine the economic and financial information on the customer and its economic group with the accessory guarantees offered for the operations: significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor; high probability of bankruptcy or composition with creditors or financial reorganization; breach of contract, such as a default or arrears in interest or principal payments; debt renegotiation; and the disappearance of an active market.
    The PD is set for each business segment established by PagSeguro, which segregation is mainly based on customer size, so that customers with similar behavior and PD are grouped.
    The weighting of objective factors plus the analysis of the coverage percentage of accessory guarantees leads to the customer rating which allows the grouping of customers with similar credit risks and classification into one of the following stages:
Stage 1: comprises the credit portfolio that has not shown significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, or that showed a low credit risk at the reporting date of the financial statement. It requires the recognition of an allowance related to the expected credit losses resulting from default events that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date (12-month expected credit losses).
Stage 2: comprises the credit portfolio that has shown significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, but did not show objective evidence of impairment. It requires the recognition of an allowance in the amount of the expected credit losses considering default events that are possible over the expected lifetime of the transaction.
Stage 3: comprises the credit portfolio that shows objective evidence of impairment. It requires the recognition of an allowance in the amount of the expected credit losses considering default events that are possible over the expected lifetime of the transaction.
    In addition to the above-described internal policies and rules, used for calculating the necessary allowance requirements, the recognition of the allowance for impairment also takes into consideration prospective information and scenarios established by PagSeguro, which consist of the following: change in macroeconomic scenarios which impact the calculation model, such as, unemployment rate, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), score to credit cards, inflation rate, debt rate and score to loans. Macroeconomic scenarios also involve inherent risks, market uncertainties and other factors that may give rise to results different from those expected.
    Finally, in addition to the methodology for calculating the allowance for impairment (EAD x PD x LGD), PagSeguro takes into consideration any other factor that may not be covered by such methodology, applying that factor at the individual transaction level. In this assessment, management has considered forward looking information and assumptions as the historical loss experience, credit quality and guarantees, economic factors and estimated future cash flows, which could impact the calculation model for provisioning expected credit losses.
    An asset or group of financial assets is impaired and impairment loss is incurred if: (i) there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a "loss event"); (ii) such loss event (or events) effectively impact the estimated future cash flows of the operation; and (iii) the loss can be reliably estimated.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the loss decreases and is objectively related to an event occurring after the loss recognition (such as an upgrade in the debtor’s credit rating), the previously recognized loss is reversed by adjusting the allowance.
2.7.    Inventories
    Inventories consist of POS devices. Inventories are stated at historical cost. The Company used the average cost method to account for inventories' cost and corresponding provision for losses is recognized when sale value is lower than its purchase cost.
2.8.    Property and equipment
    Property and equipment is stated at historical cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the items and may also include finance costs related to the acquisition of qualifying assets.
    Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these costs will flow to PagSeguro Group and that such benefits can be reliably measured.
    The carrying amount of replaced items or parts is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance expenses are charged to the statement of income during the year in which they are incurred.
    The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and adjusted on a prospective basis, if appropriate. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, based on the estimated useful lives, as shown below:
Data processing equipment (includes the POS devices)
2.5 to 5 years
Building leasings
5 to 10 years
Machinery and equipment
5 to 10 years
Other assets
5 to 10 years
    During 2022, the Company reviewed the estimated useful lives of these assets and no significant change was identified.
    An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset) is recognized within "Other (expenses) income, net" in the statement of income when an asset is derecognized.
    An asset's carrying amount is immediately written down to its recoverable amount when the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. See note 2.10.

2.9.    Intangible assets
    Software licenses are recorded at historical cost. Software licenses are amortized on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software which is approximately five years.
    Costs associated with maintaining computer software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by PagSeguro Group are recognized as intangible assets.
    Directly attributable costs relating to internal development of software are capitalized as part of the software product, which mainly includes costs incurred with employees and third-party contracted services.
    Other development expenditures that do not meet the capitalization criteria are expensed as incurred. Development costs previously recorded as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period and are included in the income statement.
    Capitalized computer software development costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives which are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, and adjusted on a prospective basis, if appropriate.
2.10.    Impairment of non-financial assets
    The PagSeguro Group assesses at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the PagSeguro Group estimates the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's or CGU's fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, 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 is written down to its recoverable amount.
    In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are considered. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used.
    The Group bases its impairment calculation on most recent budgets and forecast calculations. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover a period of five years. A long-term growth rate is calculated and applied to project future cash flows after the fifth year.
    For assets excluding goodwill, an assessment is made at each reporting date to determine whether there is an indication that previously recognized impairment losses no longer exist or have decreased. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the asset's or CGU's recoverable amount. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Goodwill is impaired when the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than it is carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
2.11.    Payables to third parties
    Payables to third parties refer to funds payable and amounts due to merchants that use PagSeguro Brazil platform. PagSeguro Group recognizes a liability for the transaction amount, net of the transaction cost that will be made available to the merchant on its PagSeguro account.
    The payables to third parties from installment transactions are estimated based on the fair value, in accordance with the terms of these transactions.
2.12.    Deposits
    The PagSeguro Group has sell-buy back transactions (sales of financial assets with future repurchase agreement). Such repurchase agreements are recorded in term deposits accounts when refers to certificate deposits operations and interbank deposits accounts for financial letter issuance purposes. The difference between sale price and repurchase price is treated as interest and it is recognized during the term of the agreement by effective interest rate method.
2.13.    Borrowings
    Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, except for the embedded derivative, which is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
    Gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated income statements when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest method amortization process. Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest method. The effective interest method amortization is included in interest expense in the consolidated income statements.
2.14.    Provisions
    Provisions are recognized when PagSeguro Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. When PagSeguro Group expects the value of a provision to be reimbursed, in whole or in part (for example, due to an insurance contract) the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. Expenses associated with any provisions are presented in the statement of income, net of any reimbursements. PagSeguro Group is a party to legal and administrative proceedings.
    Provisions are established for all contingencies related to lawsuits for which it is probable that an outflow of funds will be necessary to settle the contingency/obligation and a reasonable estimate can be made. The assessment of the likelihood of loss includes the evaluation of available evidence, the hierarchy of laws, available case law, recent court decisions and their importance in the legal system, as well as the opinion of outside legal counsel. The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in circumstances.

2.15.    Revenue and income
    Revenue from contract with customers is recognized as control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services in the ordinary course of PagSeguro Group's activities. Revenue is presented net of sales and excise taxes and returns.
    PagSeguro Group's revenue from contract with customers substantially comprises:
Revenue from transaction activities and other services: Revenue from fees charged for intermediation of electronic payments, and other services such as prepaid cards, which are recognized at the time the purchase is approved by the financial institution. Revenues from fees charged for intermediation of electronic payments are recognized on a gross basis and related transaction costs are recognized as Cost of sales and services, since PagSeguro Group is the principal in the intermediation transaction. PagSeguro Group has primary responsibility for providing the services to customers and directly sets the prices for such services, independently from the related transaction costs agreed between PagSeguro Group and the card schemes or card issuers.
Revenue from membership fee: The Company charges a non-refundable membership fee at the inception of the contract with customers that provides access to the PagSeguro Group ecosystem. Revenue related to the non-refundable membership fee has been deferred according to the PagSeguro clients' internal metrics and recognized in deferred revenues over time.
Income is mostly comprised of financial income recognized because of the discount rate charged on the early payments of payables to third parties (merchants). The income is recognized at the time the merchant agrees to receive a sale in installments on an early payment basis, and it is recorded as financial income in the statement of income.
2.16.    Current and deferred income tax and social contribution
    Current income tax and social contribution
    Tax assets and liabilities for the current year are calculated based on the expected recoverable amount or the amount payable to the tax authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to calculate the amount are those enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where PagSeguro Group operates and generates taxable income.
    Current income tax and social contribution related to items recognized directly in equity are recognized in equity. PagSeguro Group periodically evaluates the tax positions involving interpretation of tax regulations and establishes provisions when appropriate.
    Deferred taxes
    Deferred taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts at the balance sheet date.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all temporary taxable differences, except in the following situations:
When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit; and
On temporary tax differences related to investments in subsidiaries 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 tax assets are recognized on all deductible temporary differences and tax loss carryforwards, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which they can be offset, except:
When the deferred tax asset related to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss; and
On the deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and that taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.
    The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and a deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax assets to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred 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 be available to allow their utilization.
    Based on the local law of the Cayman Islands (specifically, the Companies Law of 1960), there is no taxation on the income earned by companies organized in this jurisdiction. Therefore, PagSeguro Digital has no income tax impacts in the Cayman Islands.
    For the subsidiaries of PagSeguro Digital, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the prevailing tax rates in the year in which the assets will be realized, and the liabilities will be settled. The currently defined tax rates of 25% for income tax and 9% for social contribution are used to calculate deferred taxes, except for BancoSeguro, which currently defined tax rates of 25% for income tax and 21% for social contribution, according to the Law 14.446.
    Deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented on a net basis when there is legally or contractually enforceable right to offset the tax asset against the tax liability, and the deferred taxes are related to the same taxable entity and subject to the same tax authority.
2.17.    Employee benefits - Profit sharing
    PagSeguro Group recognizes a liability and an expense for profit sharing subject to achievement of operational targets and performance established and approved at the beginning of each fiscal year. PagSeguro Group recognizes a provision when contractually obliged or when there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
2.18.    Business combination and goodwill
    PagSeguro Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the sum of the consideration transferred, based on its fair value on the acquisition date. Costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. The assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are measured at fair value, classified and allocated according to the contractual terms, economic circumstances, and relevant conditions on the acquisition date. PagSeguro Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquired business either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the fair value of the acquired businesses' identifiable net assets. Non-controlling interests are determined upon each acquisition. Acquisition-related costs are accounted for in the statement of income as incurred.
    Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of net assets acquired. If the consideration transferred is smaller than the fair value of net assets acquired, the difference is recognized as a gain on bargain purchase in the statement of income. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
    Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the acquirer will be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Contingent consideration classified as equity is not remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration classified as an asset or liability that is a financial instrument and within the scope of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, is measured at fair value with the changes in fair value recognized in the statement of profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9.
2.19.    Treasury shares
    Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue, or cancellation of the PagSeguro Group's own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognized in equity.
2.20.    Share-based payments (LTIP and LTIP Goals)
    LTIP-Goals was established by PagSeguro Brazil on December 18, 2018, as approved by the Company’s board of directors, and ratified on August 7, 2019, February 21, 2020 and January 19, 2021. Beneficiaries under the LTIP-Goals are selected by the LTIP-Goals Committee, which consists of the Company’s Chairman of the board of directors and two officers of UOL. Beneficiaries under the LTIP-Goals are granted awards, which may be payable in cash, Class A common shares or a combination of the two, at the discretion of the LTIP-Goals Committee based on the goals established in the Company’s corporate results-sharing plan for any given year. If any portion of an award was payable in Class A common shares, the relevant value in Brazilian reais was converted into Class A common shares on the last business day of January for awards related to 2019 and 2020. For awards related to 2021 and beyond, the LTIP-Goals Committee will set a determination date that falls no later than on the last business day of March following the year for which such amount was awarded. Under the LTIP-Goals plan, the relevant payment shall be made and/or Class A common shares delivered within 10 business days of that determination date.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    Before the LTIP-Goals was created, members of management participated in the LTIP, which was established by UOL for its group companies on July 29, 2015 and was adopted by PagSeguro Digital Ltd. Beneficiaries under the LTIP were selected by UOL’s LTIP Committee, which consists of the Company’s chairman and two officers of UOL. Since the establishment of LTIP-Goals on December 18, 2018, no new rights have been, nor will be, granted under the LTIP. Beneficiaries under the LTIP were granted rights in the form of notional cash amounts without cash consideration. In this plan, employees (including senior executives) of the UOL group companies receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services as consideration for equity instruments (equity-settled transactions).
    The cost of equity-settled transactions is determined by the fair value at the date when the grant is made. These rights vest in five equal annual installments starting one year after the beneficiary’s grant date.
    That cost is recognized in personnel expenses, together with a corresponding increase in equity over the period in which the service is 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. The expense in the statement of profit or loss represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of the year. No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest because service conditions have not been met.
2.21.    New accounting standards adopted in 2022
    The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 are consistent with those adopted for the year ended December 31, 2021, except for the changes required by the pronouncements, interpretations and standards which became effective on January 1, 2022, as described below.
The amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E) prohibits an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of PP&E any proceeds received from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. It also clarifies that an entity is ‘testing whether the asset is functioning properly’ when it assesses technical and physical performance of the asset. The financial performance of the asset is not relevant to this assessment. Entities must disclose separately the amounts of proceeds and costs relating to items produced that are not an output of the entity’s ordinary activities. The Group analyzed their transactions and concluded that it is not exposed to this amendment.
Minor amendments were made to IFRS 3 Business Combinations to update the references to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting and to add an exception for the recognition of liabilities and contingent liabilities within the scope of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and Interpretation 21 Levies. The amendments also confirm that contingent assets should not be recognised at the acquisition date. The Group did not participate of any business combination in 2022.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
The amendment to IAS 37 clarifies that the direct costs of fulfilling a contract include both the incremental costs of fulfilling the contract and an allocation of other costs directly related to fulfilling contracts. Before recognising a separate provision for an onerous contract, the entity recognises any impairment loss that has occurred on assets used in fulfilling the contract. The Group analyzed their transactions and concluded that is not exposed to this amendment.
    The following improvements were finalized in May 2020 and become effective on January 2022, but did not impact the Group:
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – clarifies which fees should be included in the 10% test for derecognition of financial liabilities.
IFRS 16 Leases – amendment of illustrative example 13 to remove the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements, to remove any confusion about the treatment of lease incentives.
IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards – allows entities that have measured their assets and liabilities at carrying amounts recorded in their parent’s books to also measure any cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent. This amendment will also apply to associates and joint ventures that have taken the same IFRS 1 exemption.
IAS 41 Agriculture – removal of the requirement for entities to exclude cash flows for taxation when measuring fair value under IAS 41. This amendment is intended to align with the requirement in the standard to discount cash flows on a post-tax basis.
2.22.    New accounting standards not yet effective
    The new and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements are disclosed below. The Company intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective.
IFRS 17 was issued in May 2017 as replacement for IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts. It requires a current measurement model where estimates are remeasured in each reporting period. Contracts are measured using the building blocks of discounted probability-weighted cash flows, an explicit risk adjustment and a contractual service margin (CSM) representing the unearned profit of the contract which is recognised as revenue over the coverage period.
    The standard allows a choice between recognising changes in discount rates either in the statement of profit or loss or directly in other comprehensive income. The choice is likely to reflect how insurers account for their financial assets under IFRS 9. An optional, simplified premium allocation approach is permitted for the liability for the remaining coverage for short duration contracts, which are often written by non-life insurers.
    There is a modification of the general measurement model called the ‘variable fee approach’ for certain contracts written by life insurers where policyholders share in the returns from underlying items. When applying the variable fee approach, the entity’s share of the fair value changes of the underlying items is included in the CSM. The results of insurers using this model are therefore likely to be less volatile than under the general model.

2. Presentation and preparation of the consolidated financial statements and significant accounting policies (continued)
    Targeted amendments made in July 2020 aimed to ease the implementation of the standard by reducing implementation costs and making it easier for entities to explain the results from applying IFRS 17 to investors and others. The amendments also deferred the application date of IFRS 17 to 1 January 2023. The group does not expect the new IFRS to materially impact its results of operations.
Amendment to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": issued in May 2020, with the objective of clarifying that liabilities are classified as current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the period. The classification is not affected by the entity’s expectations or events after the reporting date (eg, receipt of a waiver or breach of covenant). The amendments also clarify what "settlement" of a liability refers to under IAS 1. The amendments to IAS 1 are effective as of January 1, 2023. The group does not expect the new amendment to materially impact its results of operations.
Amendment to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Disclosure of Accounting Policies: in February 2021 the IASB issued a new amendment to IAS 1 on disclosure of "material" accounting policies rather than "significant" accounting policies. The amendments define what "material accounting policy information" is and explains how to identify it. It also clarifies that immaterial accounting policy information does not need to be disclosed, but if so, it should not obscure the relevant accounting information. To support this change, the IASB also amended the "IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgments" to provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. This amendment is effective as of January 1, 2023. The group does not expect the new amendment to materially impact its results of operations.
Amendment to IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Change in Estimate and Error Rectification: the amendment issued in February 2021 clarifies how entities must distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates, as changes in accounting estimates are applied prospectively to future transactions and other future events, but changes in accounting policies are generally applied retrospectively to past transactions and other past events, as well as to the current period. This amendment is effective as of January 1, 2023. The group does not expect the new amendment to materially impact its results of operations.
Amendment to IAS 12 - Income Taxes: the amendment issued in May 2021 requires entities to recognize deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. This typically applies to lease transactions (right-of-use assets and lease liabilities) and decommissioning and restoration obligations, as an example, and will require the recognition of additional deferred tax assets and liabilities. This amendment is effective as of January 1, 2023.
    The group does not expect the new improvements to materially impact its results of operations.

3. Accounting estimates and judgments
Accounting estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Based on assumptions, PagSeguro Group makes estimates concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The main estimates and assumptions are addressed below:
3.1. Provision for contingencies
PagSeguro Group recognizes provisions for civil, tax and labor lawsuits. The assessment of probability of loss includes assessing the available evidence and jurisprudence, the hierarchy of laws and most recent court decisions. Provisions are reviewed and adjusted to consider changes in circumstances such as the applicable limitation period, findings of tax inspections and additional exposures identified based on new issues or court decisions.
3.2. Measurement of loss allowance for expected credit losses
For accounts receivable from cards issuers, PagSeguro Group uses a provision matrix to calculate ECLs. The provision rates are based on the internal credit rating that consider external information, such as ratings given by major rating agencies and forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. For loans and credit cards receivable with the clients, the provision rates are based on EAD, PD and LGD as detailed in note 2.6 accounts receivable.
3.3. Impairment of goodwill
Management's judgment must be exercised especially in forecasting CGU's cash flows, computation of the weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"), estimation of inflation and long-term growth rate based on estimated gross domestic product used when calculating the value in use of the CGU, as described in Note 13.

4. Consolidation of subsidiaries (continued)
Subsidiaries are engaged in providing financial technology solutions and services and the corresponding related activities. PagSeguro Brazil has investments in the following companies:
Biva Sec: The company’s main objective is to acquire and securitize credit solutions of PagSeguro Group, such as, loans and credit card operation.
FIDC: FIDC is a Brazilian investment fund that was formed on October 4, 2017 to finance the growth of PagSeguro Brazil’s early payment of receivables feature by acquiring payables to third parties held by PagSeguro Brazil, as assignor. PagSeguro Brazil consolidates the financial statements of FIDC, since the risks of default and the responsibility for the payment of expenses and administration fees related to the FIDC are linked to subordinated quotas held by the PagSeguro Brazil.
    On March 29, 2018, third party investors contributed capital in the amount of R$ 20 million in FIDC, acquiring only senior and mezzanine quotas of the FIDC. On November 3, 2020 and November 1, 2021, the third party investors redeemed all of their capital related to the senior quotas and mezzanine quotas. On December 27, 2021 PagSeguro Brazil transferred 15% of their subordinated quotas to PagSeguro Digital. In October 2022, 100,000 new senior shares of the FIDC were issued with a nominal value of R$1,000 each, totaling R$100 million with third party investors and registered as other liabilities in PagSeguro Group.

(i)The PagSeguro Group capitalizes expenses incurred with the development of platforms, which are amortized over their useful lives of approximately five years.
(ii)The balances comprise the goodwill arising from the acquisition of the companies Biva, BancoSeguro, Yamí, Zygo, Moip and Concil.
The goodwill is allocated to the Cash Generating Units (CGUs) in each of the acquired companies that generated the goodwill and is demonstrated below:
December 31, 2022December 31, 2021
Moip148,218 148,218 
Concil20,731 20,731

Zygo5,768 5,768 
Yami1,382 1,382 
Total209,908 209,908 
The recoverable amount of a CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculations. The goodwill was mainly represented by the MOIP acquisition in the amount of R$148,117. The recoverability of this goodwill was tested using five-year budgets, a long-term growth rate based on estimated gross domestic product (2.01% in 2026 and 2.01% in 2027), inflation rates (3.29% in 2026 and 3.29% in 2027) metrics to project future cash flows and discount rate based on WACC (fluctuation from 14% to 16% per year). For the goodwill originated by other acquisitions, the Company tested the recoverability using the same approach.
Based on these assessments, management concluded that the book balances of goodwill recorded as of December 31, 2022 are recoverable, since the estimated value for GCU was higher than its book value and, therefore, no provision for impairment of was accounted for.

(i)The increase is mainly represented by: (i) costs related to interchange fees of card issuers in the amount of R$4,505,290 for year ended December 31, 2022 (R$3,043,591 and R$1,680,441 for years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively), (ii) card scheme fees in the amount of R$882,091 for year ended December 31, 2022 (R$653,224 and R$432,361 for years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively). The balance is also impacted by anincrease in costs related to freight, maintenance of POS and storage costs in the amount R$250,323 for the year ended December 31, 2022 (R$242,834 and R$ 212,813 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively).
(ii)Includes R$79,447, R$370,629 and R$ 207,012 of compensation expenses related to the LTIP and LTIP goals for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Despite that, there was an increase in personnel expenses which is mainly related to increase in headcount.
(iii)Relates mainly to the early collection of receivables, which amounted to R$1,233,045 in the year ended December 31, 2022 (R$426,992 and R$49,204 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively). The remaining increase is related to expenses with higher amount of interests on deposits which amounted to R$654,903 in the year ended December 31, 2022 (R$105,568 and R$8,083 in the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) and bank accounts which amounted to R$918,390 in the year ended December 31, 2022 (R$173,238 and R$35,533 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) due to the increase of Brazilian interest rates and exchange rate in foreign currency and also on the amounts of deposits during 2022.
(iv)Total losses refer to amounts recognized during the year related to card processing operations (acquiring and issuing), losses on digital accounts in the amount of R$430,895 (R$386,143 and R$171,925 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) and provision for delinquency rate of credit portfolio in the amount of R$553,592 (R$278,125 and R$116,384 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively), as detailed in note 25. In the first quarter of 2021, the amount of R$73,356 related to card processing operations losses on digital accounts is represented by inappropriate use of a system functionality implemented in the past, allowing unappropriated transactions by digital accounts customers and unexpected chargebacks on digital account losses for specific group of customers with higher credit risk for a new product. For all these facts, the corresponding root cause was identified and appropriately addressed by PagSeguro’s management. The increase is related to the growth of operation of card processing operations and to credit initiatives with higher ECLs as detailed in note 8.
(v)For the year ended December 31, 2022, the increase is impacted by R$199,868 related to provision of POS devices, as described in note 12. The year ended December 31,2022 was also impacted by R$40,213 of softwares disposals, as described in note 13, impairment of our investment in BoletoFlex in the amount of R$12,602 and R$10,000 related to a payment agreement related to PagPhone with our POS supplier. The increase is also impacted by higher consumption of software and cloud services which amounted to R$432,391 for the year ended December 31, 2022 (R$326,070 and R$233,660 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively) In addition, in June 2021, there was a decision taken by Brazilian Supreme Court related to Value-added Tax on Sales and Services (ICMS), that beneficiated the Company. For this reason, the Company reversed the related provision in the amount of R$29,114 during 2021.
(vi)Depreciation and amortization amounts incurred in the year are segregated between costs and expenses as presented below:

25. Financial instruments by category
The PagSeguro Group estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies for each situation.
The interpretation of market data, as regards the choice of methodologies, requires considerable judgment and the establishment of estimates to reach an amount considered appropriate for each situation. Therefore, the estimates presented may not necessarily indicate the amounts that could be obtained in the current market. The use of different hypotheses to calculate market value or fair value may have a material impact on the amounts obtained. The assets and liabilities presented in this note were selected based on their relevance. The PagSeguro Group believes that the financial instruments recognized in these consolidated financial statements at their carrying amount are substantially similar to their fair value. However, since they do not have an active market (except for the LFT included in financial investments, which is actively traded in the market), variations could occur in the event the PagSeguro Group were to decide to settle or realize them in advance.
The PagSeguro Group classifies its financial instruments into the following categories:

26. Financial risk management
The PagSeguro Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, fraud risk (chargebacks), credit risk and liquidity risk. The PagSeguro Group's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the PagSeguro Group's financial performance.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. In the Group, market risk comprises interest rate risk and foreign currency risk and other price risk, such as equity price risk.

26. Financial risk management (continued)
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates arises primarily from financial investments and deposits both subject to variable interest rates, principally the CDI rate. The Group conducted a sensitivity analysis of the interest rate risks to which the financial instruments are exposed as of December 31, 2022. For this analysis, the Group adopted as a probable scenario for 2023 interest rates of 12,40% for the CDI. As a result, financial income (with respect to financial investments) and financial expense (with respect to certificate of deposit, corporate securities, bank accounts and interbank deposits) would be impacted as follows:
TransactionInterest rate riskBook ValueScenario with maintaining of CDI (13,65%)Probable scenario with decrease to 12,40%

Bank accounts69% of CDI7,470,978(703,654)(639,217)
Total(2,284,096)(2,074,930)
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of an exposure will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk when future commercial transactions or recognized assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The Company’s risk is mainly related to POS purchases, Pagseguro Tecnologia, BCPS, PSGP Mexico, Pagseguro Colombia, Pagseguro Chile and Pagseguro Peru that have revenues in other currencies and cash and cash equivalents maintained in other countries.
Equity price risk
The Group's non-listed equity investments are susceptible to market price risk arising from uncertainties about future values of the investment. As of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the exposure to equity price from such investments was not material.
Fraud risk (chargeback)
The PagSeguro Group's sales transactions are susceptible to potentially fraudulent or improper sales and it uses the following two processes to control the fraud risk:
(i)The first process consists of monitoring, on a real time basis, the transactions carried out with credit and debit cards and payment slips, through an anti-fraud system. This process approves or rejects suspicious transactions at the time of the authorization, based on statistical models that are revised on a periodic basis.

(ii)The second process detects chargebacks and disputes not identified by the first process. This is a supplemental process and increases the PagSeguro Group's ability to avoid new frauds. PagSeguro’s expenses with chargeback are disclosed in note 24.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily accounts receivable) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, and other financial instruments such as loans and credit card receivables with the Company’s customers.
Credit risk is managed on a group basis and for its accounts receivable is limited to the possibility of default by: (a) the card issuers, which have the obligation of transferring to the credit and debit card labels the fees charged for the transactions carried out by their card holders, (b) the acquirers, which are used by the PagSeguro Group to approve transactions with the issuers and (c) analyses for the customers background to provide access to credit portfolio.
In order to mitigate this risk, PagSeguro Brazil has established a Credit and Liquidity Risk Committee, whose responsibility is to assess the level of risk of each of the card issuers served by PagSeguro Group, classifying them into three groups:
(i)Card issuers with a low level of risk, with credit ratings assigned by FITCH, S&P and Moody's, which do not require additional monitoring.
(ii)Card issuers with a medium level of risk, which are also monitored in accordance with the financial metrics and ratios; and
(iii)Card issuers with a high level of risk, which are assessed by the committee at monthly meetings.
PagSeguro has a rating process for loans and credit, based on statistical application models (in the early stages of customer relationships) and behavior scoring (used for customers who already have a relationship history). A process for designing, calibrating, and implementing policies and guidelines for granting credit and calibrating collection rules.
A process for monitoring the portfolio's risk profile, with a prospective view, which generates early warning feedbacks to the credit granting policies and risk classification models in a timely manner.
Liquidity risk
The PagSeguro Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining reserves, bank and credit lines in order to obtain borrowings, when deemed appropriate. The PagSeguro Group continuously monitors actual and projected cash flows and matches the maturity profile of its financial assets and liabilities in order to ensure that the PagSeguro Group has enough funds to honor its obligations to third parties and meet its operational needs.
The PagSeguro Group invests surplus cash in interest bearings financial investments, choosing instruments with appropriate maturity or enough liquidity to provide adequate margin as determined by the forecasts. On December 31, 2022, PagSeguro Group held cash and cash equivalents of 1,829,097 (R$1,794,362 on December 31, 2021).

i)Fair value hedge
In the year ended December 31, 2022, the PagSeguro Group issued certificate of deposits with one-year maturity from the execution date and interest rates correlated to the IPCA (Brazilian inflation rates) and interest fixed rates. For these certificate of deposits, the Company entered into swaps with the specific objective of protecting said deposits from fluctuations arising from inflation and high interest rates, changing them for CDI rates. The entire amount, which includes principal and interest, are covered and the same due dates are applied.

The structure of risk limits is extended to the risk factor level, where specific limits aim at improving the monitoring and understanding processes, as well as avoiding concentration of these risks. Additionally, as the main financial assets and financial liabilities of the Company are measured by CDI, the PagSeguro Group’s strategy is to change any other risk factors to CDI. The PagSeguro Group undertakes risk management through the economic relationship between hedge instruments and hedged item, in which it is expected that these instruments will move in opposite directions, in the same proportions, with the aim of neutralizing the risk factors. The Company performs the hedging account effectiveness as each reporting date test and for 2022, this test was effective.

29. Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level hierarchy is used to measure fair value, as shown below:
Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).
Level 3 - Inputs for the assets and liabilities that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).
The PagSeguro Group believes that the financial instruments recognized in these consolidated financial statements at their carrying amount are substantially similar to its fair value. Regarding financial assets, they are comprised by accounts receivable from credit/debit card issuers and acquirers originated from transactions through PagSeguro Group payment platform comprised of transactions approved by large financial institutions in the normal course of business. The financial investments are represented by government bonds with quoted prices in an active market and recognized in the balance sheet based on its fair value.
Financial liabilities are mostly represented by deposits and short-term payables to merchants which are paid in accordance with the contract set out with the merchant and other short-term payables to service providers in the normal course of business and, as such, also approximate from their fair values. There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 in 2022.
The following table provides the fair value measurement hierarchy of PagSeguro Group's financial assets and financial liabilities as of December 31, 2022:
