MATERIAL FACT
STRATEGIC PLAN 2023-2025: UPDATE PROJECTIONS (GUIDANCE)
TIM S.A. (“Company” or “TIM) (B3: TIMS3; NYSE: TIMB), in compliance with Article 157 of Law No 6,404 and the provisions of CVM Resolution N. 44, hereby informs its shareholders, the market in general and to other interested parties the result of the projections for the Strategic Plan 2022-2024 - disclosed to the market through a Material Fact dated as of February 23rd, 2022 and its complement, disclosed to the market through a Material Fact dated May 4th, 2022 - and update the projections for the next triennium (2023-2025).
The Company publishes this assessment after a year of consistent improvements, with the full achievement of the short-term goals outlined in its 2022-2024 Plan, which demonstrates the success of the strategy and consistent execution throughout 2022. These results were achieved in a year of great challenges and uncertainties in the external environment, but of great opportunities and sectoral transformations, of which TIM is the protagonist: the launch of 5G technology and the end of the cycle of consolidation of the mobile market.
