Assets Under Custody
Total AUC was R$789 billion as of September 30, up 40% year-over-year and down 3% quarter-over-quarter.

Non-GAAP Measures
This release includes certain 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 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.
