1. INVESTMENTS
Client Assets and Net Inflow (in R$ billion)
Client Assets totaled R$1.4 trillion in 3Q25, up 12% YoY and 4% QoQ. Year-over-year growth was driven by R$91 billion net inflow and R$63 billion of market appreciation.
In 3Q25, Net Inflow was R$29 billion, and Retail Net Inflow was R$20 billion, 30% higher QoQ, and 18% lower YoY.
Since 2025 — and retrospectively back to 1Q24 — we began including institutional client assets in our total client assets, which had not been accounted for previously. In addition, we are now also disclosing our assets under management (AuM) and assets under administration (AuA) separately. The combined total of client assets, AuM, and AuC reached R$1.9 trillion, representing 16% YoY growth.
It’s important to note that the reported net inflow refers exclusively to total client assets and does not include AuM or AuA.
Active Clients (in ‘000s)
Active clients grew 2% YoY and 1% QoQ, totaling 4.8 million in 3Q25.
Total Advisors (in ‘000s)
Total Advisors connected to XP, including (1) IFAs, (2) XP employees who offer advisory services, (3) Registered Investment Advisors, consultants and wealth managers, among others. As of 3Q25, we had 18.2 thousand Total Advisors, 1% lower YoY.
Retail Daily Average Trades (in million)
Retail DATs totaled 2.1 million in 3Q25, down 6% YoY and 8% QoQ.
NPS
Our NPS, a widely known survey methodology used to measure customer satisfaction, was 74 in 3Q25. Maintaining a high NPS score remains a priority for XP since our business model is built around client experience. The NPS calculation as of a given date reflects the average scores in the prior six months.

5. INSURANCE
Gross Written Premiums (in R$ million)
Gross written premiums (GWP) refer to the total amount of premium income that XPs has written or sold during a particular reporting period before deductions for provisions, reinsurance and other expenses. This figure represents the total premiums that customers have agreed to pay for life insurance policies issued by the company, or sold by the company and issued by third-party insurers, including both new policies and renewals. It is a crucial metric for assessing the total business volume of an insurance company or insurance broker within that period.
In the 3Q25, Gross Written Premiums grew 25% YoY and 2% QoQ.

Retail revenue reached R$3,704 million in 3Q25, marking a 4% increase quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) and a 6% increase year-over-year (YoY). Both YoY and QoQ performances were mainly driven by (1) Float, from both checking and investment accounts, which benefited from higher average volumes and higher interest rates during the period, and (2) new verticals included in the Other Retail line, such as International Investments, which delivered strong results. Lastly, this quarter’s performance also includes the revenue of the Expert event.
Take Rate
Annualized Retail Take Rate was 1.24% in 3Q25, 1bp lower QoQ and 9 bps lower YoY.
Institutional Revenue
Institutional revenue was R$340 million in 3Q25, 1% lower QoQ and stable YoY.
Corporate & Issuer Services Revenue
Corporate & Issuer Services revenue totaled R$729 million in 3Q25, 33% higher QoQ and 32% higher YoY.
In 3Q25, we witnessed an improvement in the DCM activity, which impacted positively on the Issuer Services revenue.
Our Corporate division delivered solid growth, with revenues increasing 77% YoY, reaching R$406 million, and increasing 46% QoQ. This performance was supported by our ability to offer a broad range of solutions to our clients, especially in hedging solutions.
Other Revenue
Other revenue was R$169 million in 3Q25, 16% lower QoQ and 12% higher YoY.
Costs of Goods Sold and Gross Margin

SG&A expenses totaled R$1.7 billion in 3Q25, 7% higher QoQ, and 10% YoY.
Our last twelve months (LTM) compensation ratio 3 in 3Q25 was 23.5%, an improvement from 24.0% in 3Q24 and a small increase from the 23.0% in 2Q25. Our LTM efficiency ratio 4 reached 34.7% in 3Q25, also representing an improvement YoY and a small increase sequentially. This quarter, non-compensation expenses decreased by 1% YoY and 5% QoQ.
Earnings Before Taxes
EBT was R$1,331 million in 3Q25, 1% higher QoQ and 10% higher YoY. EBT Margin was 28.5%. Our EBT Margin was 103 bps lower QoQ, and 47 bps higher YoY.
Net Income and EPS
In 3Q25, Net Income reached a record of R$1.3 billion, showing an increase of 1% QoQ and 12% YoY. Basic EPS was R$2.51, stable QoQ and growing 13% YoY. Diluted EPS was R$2.47 for the quarter, stable QoQ and an increase of 13% YoY. Earnings per share have been growing faster than net income as a result of the share buyback programs we have been executing over the past few years.
3 - Compensation ratio is calculated as People SG&A (Salary and Taxes, Bonuses and Share Based Compensation) divided by Net Revenue.
4 - Efficiency ratio is calculated as SG&A ex-revenue from incentives from Tesouro Direto, B3, and others divided by Net Revenue.
ROTE and ROAE
Our Return on Tangible Equity (ROTE) – a metric that excludes Intangibles and Goodwill, and we believe that allows a more meaningful comparison with our peers - was 28.0% in 3Q25, 198 bps lower QoQ and 32 bps lower YoY. Our annualized ROAE 8 in 3Q25 was 23.0%, down 138 bps QoQ and up 2 bps YoY.

Our CET1 ratio remains at a comfortable level of 18.5%. Until October 2025, we executed share repurchases totaling R$842 million. In addition, we are opening a new share buyback program totaling R$1 billion and announcing new dividends in the amount of R$500 million, to be paid still in 2025. This new program is part of our capital distribution plan, aligned with our guidance target of BIS Ratio to operate the business between 16% and 19% in 2026.
5 - Managerial BIS Ratio is calculated using the same methodology as the BIS Ratio for our Prudential Conglomerate. However, it is based on the total assets and equity of the entire group.

You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented and we do not intend to update any of these forward-looking statements.
Market data and industry information used throughout this release are based on management’s knowledge of the industry and the good faith estimates of management. The Company also relied, to the extent available, upon management’s review of industry surveys and publications and other publicly available information prepared by a number of third-party sources. All of the market data and industry information used in this release involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Although the Company believes that these sources are reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of this information, and the Company has not independently verified this information.
The contents hereof should not be construed as investment, legal, tax or other advice and you should consult your own advisers as to legal, business, tax and other related matters concerning an investment in the Company. The Company is not acting on your behalf and does not regard you as a customer or a client. It will not be responsible to you for providing protections afforded to clients or for advising you on the relevant transaction.
This release includes Adjustments to Reported Net Income, which is non-GAAP financial information. We believe that such information is meaningful and useful in understanding the activities and business metrics of the Company’s operations. We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s business that, when viewed with our International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) results, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. Further, investors regularly rely on non-GAAP financial measures to assess operating performance and such measures may highlight trends in the Company’s business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying on financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. We also believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of public companies in the Company’s industry, many of which present these measures when reporting their results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for informational purposes and to enhance understanding of the IFRS financial statements. The non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with IFRS, but not as a substitute for, or superior to, IFRS results. As other companies may determine or calculate this non-GAAP financial information differently, the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes is limited. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest GAAP measure is included in this release.
For purposes of this release:
“Active Clients” means the total number of retail clients served through our XP Investimentos, Rico, Clear, XP Investments and XP Private (Europe) brands, with Client Assets above R$100.00 or that have transacted at least once in the last thirty days. For purposes of calculating this metric, if a client holds an account in more than one of the aforementioned entities, such client will be counted as one “active client” for each such account. For example, if a client holds an account in each of XP Investimentos and Rico, such client will count as two “active clients” for purposes of this metric.
“Client Assets” means the market value of all client assets invested through XP’s platform and that is related to reported Retail Revenue, including equities, fixed income securities, mutual funds (including those managed by XP Gestão de Recursos Ltda., XP Advisory Gestão de Recursos Ltda. and XP Vista Asset Management Ltda., as well as by third-party asset managers), pension funds (including those from XP Vida e Previdência S.A., as well as by third-party insurance companies), exchange traded funds, COEs (Structured Notes), REITs, and uninvested cash balances (Float Balances), among others. Although Client Assets includes custody from Corporate Clients that generate Retail Revenue, it does not include custody from institutional clients (asset managers, pension funds and insurance companies).
Rounding
We have made rounding adjustments to some of the figures included in this release. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures that preceded them.
