Shareholders’ equity |
30 | Shareholders’ equity
Accounting policy Common shares are classified in shareholders’ equity. Each time a share premium is paid to the Company for an issued share, the respective share premium is allocated to the share premium account. Each time the repayment of a share premium is decided, such repayment shall be done pro-rata to the existing shareholders. The distribution of dividends to the Company’s shareholders is recognized as a liability in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Shares repurchased under buyback programs that are not cancelled are reported as treasury shares and are deducted from shareholders’ equity. These shares are also deducted in the earnings per share calculation.
(a) | Capital
As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding capital of USD 132,438 (2024: USD 132,438) is comprised of 132,438 thousand subscribed and issued common shares (2024: 132,438 thousand), with par value of USD 1.00 per share. In addition to the subscribed and issued common shares, NEXA also has an authorized, but unissued and unsubscribed share capital set at USD 231,925.
(b) | Share premium
The share premium, if any, may be distributed to the shareholders in accordance with Luxembourg Commercial Companies Act by a resolution of the Board of Directors.
(c) | Additional paid-in capital
Additional paid in capital arises from transactions recognized in equity that do not qualify as capital or share premium in accordance with Luxembourg Commercial Companies Act and, therefore, cannot be distributed to the shareholders of the Company.
(d) | Accumulated other comprehensive income
The changes in the accumulated other comprehensive income are as follows:

(e) | Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income attributable to NEXA’s shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the same net income attributable to NEXA’s shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares adjusted for the effects of all potentially dilutive instruments, if any. The Company performs an assessment at each reporting date of all outstanding financial instruments and equity-linked arrangements to determine whether they are potentially dilutive in accordance with IAS 33. For the years presented, the Company did not have any outstanding options, warrants, convertible instruments, share-based payment arrangements or any other instruments that could result in the issuance of additional shares. As the Company does not have any potentially dilutive shares, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.

On January 15, 2025, Nexa El Porvenir paid USD 3,453 and non-controlling shareholders paid USD 1,864 for the subscription of newly issued shares of Nexa Atacocha. Since Nexa El Porvenir subscribed to its portion of the capital increase in December 2024, while non-controlling shareholders completed their subscription in January 2025, its ownership interest in Nexa Atacocha decreased from 86.65% as of December 31, 2024, to 82.11%. Nexa El Porvenir recognized a gain of USD 1,005 from the dilution of its ownership interest, due to Atacocha’ s negative equity, which was recorded in equity attributable to Nexa’s controlling interest, while a loss of USD 1,016 was allocated to the non-controlling shareholders. On July 17, 2025, Nexa El Porvenir, which owned 82.11% of Nexa Atacocha, launched a Voluntary Public Tender Offer (OPA) through the Lima Stock Exchange (BVL), under the supervision of the Peruvian Securities Market Authority (SMV), to acquire up to the remaining 17.89% of Atacocha’s shares held by non-controlling interests. The tender offer remained open until September 3, 2025. Following the completion of Tender Offer, 0.89% of the shares were acquired for USD 502, resulting in an increase in Nexa El Porvenir’s controlling ownership interest in Nexa Atacocha from 82.11% to 83.00%. As a result, the non-controlling interest decreased from 17.89% to 17.00. Consequently, a total reduction of USD 502 was recorded in equity, of which USD 492 was recognized in retained earnings attributable to the controlling interest and USD 10 to the non-controlling interest.
