Vitru Limited

Notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

September 30, 2022 and 2021.

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, except as otherwise indicated)

1.Corporate information

Vitru Limited (“Vitru”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Group”) is a holding company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on March 05, 2020 and whose shares are publicly traded on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations Payments exchange (NASDAQ) under the ticker symbol “VTRU”.

Vitru is a holding company whose principal shareholders are Vinci Partners, through the investments funds “Vinci Capital Partners II FIP Multiestratégia”, “Agresti Investments LLC”, “Botticelli Investments LLC”, Raffaello Investments LLC”, the Carlyle Group, through the fund “Mundi Holdings I, L.L.C.”, SPX Capital, through the investment fund “Mundi Holdings II, L.L.C.” and Neuberger
Berman, through the investment fund NB Verrochio LP.

The Company is principally engaged in providing educational services in Brazil, mainly undergraduate and continuing education courses, presentially through campuses, or via distance learning, through 2.108 (December 31, 2021 – 939) learning centers (“hubs”) across the country.

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 10, 2022.

1.1.

Significant events during the period

a)Operating events

Seasonality:

The distance learning undergraduate courses are structured around separate monthly modules. This enables students to enroll in distance learning courses at any time during a semester. Despite this flexibility, generally a higher number of enrollments in distance learning courses occurs in the first and third quarters of each year. These periods coincide with the beginning of academic semesters in Brazil. Furthermore, there is a higher number of enrollments at the beginning of the first semester of each year than at the beginning of the second semester of each year. In order to attract and encourage potential new students to enroll in undergraduate courses later in the semester, the Group often offers discounts, generally equivalent to the number of months that have passed in the semester. As a result, given revenue from semiannual contracts are recorded over the time in a semester, revenue is generally higher in the second and fourth quarters of each year, as additional students enroll in later in the semester. Revenue is also higher later in the semester due to lower dropout rates during that same period.

Leases (Note 11):

With the opening of new hubs according to the Group’s expansion strategy, new lease contracts were signed for the Group’s own hubs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Such new lease contracts resulted in an increment of R$ 4,390 to both right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

Capital contributions:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the SOP participants settled 239.887 new shares that were issued on September 2021 and 141.593 new shares issued in 2022, regarding the realization of SOP options. The amount paid for the shares in 2022 was R$ 18,329.

Share-based compensation (Note 5 and 20)

In the period between February and September 2022, first Stock Options Program (SOP) participants sold 538,815 shares on the market, thus ending the Company's purchase obligation, and changing the SOP from cash settled into equity settled. The impact caused by this operation was a reversal of R$ 79,936 in liabilities and a constitution of reserve in equity of R$ 17,862.

Allowance for doubtful accounts for expected credit losses (ECL) (Note 7)

On June 2022 the Company reviewed its allowance for doubtful accounts based on lifetime ECL due to synergies already implemented through the broader use of best practices from Unicesumar that generated improvements in the collection numbers from customers from the previous portfolios of the Company.

2.

Basis of preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group as of September 30, 2022, and for the nine and three months period ended September 30, 2022 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The information does not meet all disclosure requirements for the presentation of full annual consolidated financial statements and thus should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous fiscal year and corresponding interim reporting period. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Brazilian reais (“R$”), and all amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest thousand currency units unless otherwise stated.

There were no changes since December 31, 2021 in the accounting practices adopted for consolidation and in the direct and indirect interests of the Company in its subsidiaries for the purposes of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.1.

Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

The preparation of unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group requires management to make judgments and estimates and to adopt assumptions that affect the amounts presented referring to revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities at the reporting date. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgements and estimates made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that are set the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

2.2.

Financial instruments risk management objectives and policies

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual

consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk management policies since the year-end.

3.Business combinations

On August 23, 2021, we entered into a purchase agreement with the shareholders of CESUMAR - Centro de Ensino Superior de Maringá Ltda, or “Unicesumar”, to acquire the entire share capital of Unicesumar. The transaction was closed on May 20, 2022 (transaction date), when the consideration provided for in the purchase and sale agreement was transferred and control of Unicesumar was transferred to the Company, after usual conditions precedent, including appreciation by a regulatory agency antitrust and other regulatory approvals.

Unicesumar is a leading and fast-growing higher education institution in Brazil focused on the distance learning market, founded in 1989 in Maringá - Paraná. As of December 31, 2021, UniCesumar had 1,007 hubs and approximately 356 thousand students, of which 340 thousand are in digital education. Unicesumar also has significant on-site courses in the health area, mainly Medicine, with more than 1,600 students.

The acquisitions were accounted for using the acquisition method where the consideration transferred and the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired were measured at fair value, while goodwill is measured as the excess of consideration paid over those items.

4.Segment reporting

Segment information is presented consistently with the internal reports provided to the Senior management team, consisting of the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer and other executives, which is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and is responsible for allocating resources, assessing the performance of the Company's operating segments, and making the Company’s strategic decisions.

In reviewing the operational performance of the Company and allocating resources, the CODM reviews selected items of the statement of profit or loss and of comprehensive income, based on relevant financial data for each of the Company’s operating segments, represented by the Company’s main lines of service from which it generates revenue, as follows:

Digital education undergraduate courses
Continuing education courses
On-campus undergraduate courses

Segment performance is primarily evaluated based on net revenue and on adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA). The Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as operating profit plus depreciation and amortization plus interest received on late payments of monthly tuition fees and adjusted by the elimination of effects from share-based compensation plus/minus exceptional expenses. General and administrative expenses (except for intangible assets’ amortization and impairment expenses), finance results (other than interest on tuition fees paid in arrears) and income taxes are managed on a Company’s consolidated basis and are not allocated to operating segments.

There were no inter-segment revenues in the period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. There were no adjustments or eliminations in the profit or loss between segments.

The CODM do not make strategic decisions or evaluate performance based on geographic regions. Currently, the Company operates solely in Brazil and all the assets, liabilities and results are located in Brazil.

5.Fair Value Measurement

As of September 30, 2022, the Company has only Share-based compensation liabilities measured at fair value, in the amount of R$ 29,009, which are classified in Level 3 of fair value measurement hierarchy given significant unobservable inputs used.

There were no transfers between Levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The following table presents the changes in level 3 items for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 for recurring fair value measurements:

(i) As described on note 1.1.a., for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, first Stock Options Program (SOP) participants sold 538,815 shares on the market, thus ending the Company's purchase obligation, and changing the SOP from cash settled into equity settled.

The Company assessed that the fair values of financial instruments at amortized cost such as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, current trade receivables and trade payables approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Non-current trade receivables, lease liabilities, accounts payable from acquisition of subsidiaries and loans and financing have their carrying amount adjusted by their respective effective interest rate in order to be presented as close as possible to its fair value.

Net operating revenue growth rate (i)

24.8%

22.5%

2021: Increased growth rate (+200 basis points (bps)) and lower discount rate (-100 bps) would increase FV by R$ 435; lower growth rate (-200 bps) and higher discount rate (+100 bps) would decrease FV by R$ 433.

Pre-tax discount rate (ii)

11.2%

11.4%

2020: Increased growth rate (+200 basis points (bps)) and lower discount rate (-100 bps) would increase FV by R$ 553; lower growth rate (-200 bps) and higher discount rate (+100 bps) would decrease FV by R$ 548.

(i) The growth rate of net operating revenue is based on the historical growth of the student base and management’s expectations of market development.

(ii) Pre-tax discount rate reflects specific risks relating to the segment and country in which the Company operates.

(i) Short-term deposits (mainly proceeds from the IPO) maintained in U.S. dollar.

(ii) Cash equivalents are comprised of short-term deposits with a maturity of three months or less, which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, readily convertible into cash.

(iii) Short-term investments, decreased by the payments for the acquisition of Unicesumar, correspond to financial investments in Investment Funds, with highly rated financial institutions. As of September 30, 2022, the average interest on these Investment Funds is 10.27% p.a., corresponding to 101.68% of CDI. Despite the fact these investments have high liquidity and have insignificant risk of changes in value, they do not qualify as cash equivalents given the nature of investment portfolio and their maturity. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, their carrying amount is the same as their fair value.

These receivables bear interests of 1.34% and, given long-term term of the installments, they have been discounted at an interbank rate of 2.76%.

(ii) Unicesumar has a program similar to PEP, the students receive a deducted from tuition gross amount from services provided during the entire duration of such student's undergraduate. The deduction is based on a fixed percentage and, after graduation, the students pay back the deduction on the current value of tuition.

Cancellations consist of deductions of the revenue to adjust it to the extension it is probable that it will not be reversed, generally related to students that have not attended classes and do not recognize the service provided or are dissatisfied with the services being provided. A provision for cancellation is estimated using the expected value method, which considers accumulated experience and is updated at the end of each period for changes in expectations.

Changes in the Company’s revenue cancellation provision are as follows:

As of September 30,

(3,673)

The Company records the allowance for expected credit losses of trade receivables on a monthly basis by analyzing the amounts invoiced in the month, the monthly volume of receivables and the respective outstanding amounts by late payment range, calculating the recovery performance. Under this methodology, the monthly billed amount and each late payment range is assigned a percentage of probability of loss that is accrued for on a recurring basis.

When the delay exceeds 365 days (730 days to the trade receivables of Unicesumar), the receivable is written down. Even for written-off receivables, collection efforts continue, and their receipt is recognized directly in the statement of profit or loss, when incurred, as recovery of losses.

The Company's higher education companies are included in this program.

(ii) Considering that the Company is domiciled in Cayman and there is no income tax in that jurisdiction, the combined tax rate of 34% demonstrated above is the current rate applied to all Company’s subsidiaries, and operating entities in Brazil.

b)Deferred income tax

The following deferred taxes were recorded at the nominal rate of 34%. Under Brazilian tax law, temporary differences and tax losses can be carried forward indefinitely, however, tax loss carryforwards can only be used to offset up to 30% of taxable profit for the year.

(i) Transaction costs are defined as incremental costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, issue or disposal of a financial asset or financial liability. An incremental cost is one that would not have been incurred if the entity had not acquired, issued, or disposed of the financial instrument. The company had secured a firm credit line from leading Brazilian banks in an aggregate amount of R$1.95 billion (five-year financing) for the business combination with Unicesumar described on note 1.1.a. Until the closing of the agreement, the transaction costs related to loans, financing and share issuance will remain in prepaid expenses.

20.Shared-based compensation

The Group offers to its managers and executives two Share Option Plans with general conditions for the granting of share options issued by the Company to the participants appointed by the Board of Directors who, at its discretion, fulfill the conditions for participation, thereby aligning the interests of the participants to the interests of its stockholders, so as to maximize the Group's results and increase the economic value of its shares, thus generating benefits for the participants and other stockholders. It also provides participants with a long-term incentive, increasing their motivation and enabling the Group to retain quality human capital.

Participants from both plans have the right to turn all vested options into shares upon payment in cash, paying the Option Exercise Price as defined in the respective program that each participant is associated. The difference between the stipulated price in the program and the fair value of the share at the measurement date is recorded as equity.

Participants from the first plan shall have the right to require the Company to acquire all shares under its ownership to be held in treasury or for cancellation, upon payment, in cash, of the Put Option Exercise Price, for a given period as from the last Vesting Date, provided that no exit event has occurred up to the end of said period.

When all conditions applicable to the buyback of shares provided for in applicable laws and/or regulations are met, the Company shall pay the Participant the price equivalent to a certain amount of multiples of the Company's EBITDA minus the Net Debt, as set forth in each grant program, recorded as a liability.

The expense recognized for employee services received during the period is as follows:

(In thousands of Brazilian Reais, except as otherwise indicated)

The subscription rights will expire and will have no value if they are not exercised by the Expiration Date. One subscription right is being distributed for each six common shares held as of the Record Date, with each subscription right exercisable for one common share at an exercise price of U.S.$16.02 per full common share. Vitru will not issue any fractional shares upon exercise of any subscription rights in the Rights Offering, and shareholders must exercise subscription rights which would result in the issuance of at least one whole common share to participate in the Rights Offering. For example, if you owned 1,000 of our common shares on the Record Date, you would be granted subscription rights to purchase an aggregate of 166 of our common shares (rounded down to the nearest whole Common Share, with the total subscription payment being adjusted accordingly) at the subscription price per share. An aggregate of up to 4,818,123 common shares are issuable pursuant to the Rights Offering.

On November 8, 2022, as announced by the Company, CADE's decision became final after a period of 15 days from the date of the publication of the decision, without any restrictions, pursuant to the applicable Brazilian legislation.

On November 10, 2022, pursuant to the Investment Agreement, Crescera has subscribed for 3,636,363 new common shares issued by Vitru (which, upon issuance, amount to approximately 10.5%% of Vitru’s outstanding common shares) for a total consideration of US$ 58.3 million, equivalent to R$ 300 million based on the applicable exchange rate pursuant to the Investment Agreement, or approximately US$16.02 per common share.
