The basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the holders of the Company’s equity instruments by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, excluding common shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.
The basic earnings per share coincide with the diluted earnings per share, inasmuch as there exist neither preferred shares nor Corporate Notes convertible into common shares.

The non-current shares relate to acquisitions of minority interests in the share capital of two companies engaged in the development of mining projects aimed at the exploration of critical minerals, such as lithium and copper, at an early-stage or pre-exploration phase, in the province of Catamarca, whose adjacent areas show high prospectivity. Those acquisitions represent 15% and 40% of those companies’ share capital, with political rights in the latter case being limited to 11.8%. The Company has recognized these investments at their fair value in accordance with IFRS 9.
The fair value of the shares as of March 31, 2026 amounts to $ 50,976 and has been determined on the basis of valuation reports prepared by independent experts, which take into consideration third-party comparable transactions involving properties at similar exploration stages. Due to the fact that there is no active market for the shares, a per-hectare multiples approach was used, adjusted for geological characteristics, location and market conditions. The applicable fair value category is Level 3 (Note 5).

Based on the guidelines provided for in IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over income tax treatments”, the Company has restated for inflation the cumulative tax losses and fixed assets depreciation for additions prior to January 1, 2018, using the wholesale price index, general level (IPIM) and the consumer price index, general level (IPC), respectively. This criterion has been adopted taking into consideration that the effective income tax rate shows a confiscatory result, in line with the Supreme Court of Justice of Argentina’s decision rendered in the case entitled “Telefónica de Argentina SA and Another vs/EN-AFIP-DGI, General Tax Bureau” on October 25, 2022.
The reconciliation between the income tax expense recognized in profit or loss and the amount that would result from applying the applicable tax rate to the accounting income before taxes, is as follows:
