SÃO PAULO, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sendas Distribuidora S.A. (B3: ASAI3) ("Assaí") announces its intention to file a Form 15F with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to terminate the registration of its common shares and American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") under Section 12(g) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and to terminate its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. Upon filing Form 15F, Assaí's reporting obligations under the Exchange Act will be suspended immediately and are expected to terminate 90 days after the filing, barring any objection by the SEC.

Assaí reserves the right, for any reason, to delay the Form 15F filing, to withdraw the filing prior to effectiveness, and to otherwise change its plans in respect of deregistration and termination of its reporting obligations under applicable U.S. federal securities laws in any way.
