StoneCo
Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results

George
Town, Grand Cayman, August 11, 2020 - StoneCo Ltd. (Nasdaq: STNE) (“Stone” or the “Company”), a leading
provider of financial technology solutions that empower merchants to conduct commerce seamlessly across multiple channels, today
reports its financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

To
our shareholders:

"As
the world continues to face the public health and economic challenges caused by the COVID-19 crisis, Stone
remains focused on our mission – and we continue to find ways to help merchants to thrive through the offering of best-in-class
service and products delivered by an amazing and talented team of hard-working people who always put our clients at the center
of everything we do.

Our
Business is Strong and Fairly Resilient

In
the second quarter of 2020, our business began to rebound and return to pre-COVID levels across all of our business lines. We
gained an incremental R$500 million in TPV in the quarter and our year-over-year growth rates improved each month – culminating
in nearly 47% growth in June and 129% growth in July. Our HUB volumes and client net adds are re-accelerating and we were able
to maintain our normalized take rates and Net Margin relatively flat at 1.77% and 22.5%, respectively. As a result, our free cash
flow was strong, improving by R$264 million over 1Q20. Throughout the quarter, we have also maintained our high-quality level
of customer service – which is even more important and differentiated in a crisis.

Strong
Performance in Digital Commerce

Not
surprisingly, the strongest performing part of our business was in Digital Commerce, where we have made significant
investments over the past 12 months. This strategy has served us well during the crisis. Our online TPV grew 80%
year-over-year in 2Q20 and continues to trend favorably - with over 94% growth in July 2020 (excluding the favorable, but
likely temporary impact of Coronavoucher ). Our eCommerce revenues from SMBs have grown nearly 100% since the beginning
of the year driven by the mix shift from physical storefront sales to eCommerce, which we have helped our clients manage.
Similarly, our software investments have performed very well. Our software revenues reached an annualized run-rate of over
R$100mm in 2Q20, driven by a 126% increase in our software client base since the beginning of the year – which is now
305,000 clients strong.

HUBs
and Integrated Financial Platform (ABC) Are Rebounding

Our
HUBs and ABC Platform solutions have also rebounded. 42% of our HUB personnel are back to the front line, with daily routes and
presence in the hubs and our HUB TPV began to rebound in May and June – and growing 9% above pre-COVID levels in July 2020.
Our Net Client adds are trending the same way across the company and 67,000 of our clients now boarded on our ABC platform (up
from 45,000 in April 2020). In our Digital Banking and Credit business, we have also seen significant traction. Our Digital Accounts
reached 248,000 in the 2Q, growing over 100% from 1Q20. Digital Banking revenue increased throughout the quarter and grew 3.4x
in July 2020 as our account growth began to translate into material transactions. Our credit portfolio also continues to scale
with discipline. Our credit portfolio grew 48% in 2Q20 (vs 1Q) to R$491 million driven by a 51% increase in

2

credit clients, but our delinquency
rates are trending downwards as we implemented a more conservative credit policy during COVID.

Reinvesting in the Business

Given the strong re-acceleration
of our business, we are intensifying investments, having begun to hire new employees in July and continued to invest behind our software, banking and credit initiatives.

Looking Ahead

Despite the tough challenges
that we have all experienced over the past few months, we remain focused on our strategic priorities of expanding and consolidating
our presence in the SMB market, becoming the main financial platform for our clients and investing in great solutions to help SMBs
manage their businesses, grow and sell online.

We remain grateful to all Stone
team members for their strong continued performance during these past few months and to all of our clients who have shown courage
and perseverance during the crisis. While there is still a lot of work to be done in helping Brazil recover, we believe the future
is bright and are excited to continue in our mission."

Developments Related to COVID-19 Outbreak

Update
on COVID-19 business-related trends

We
are living unprecedented times with the COVID-19 outbreak. This crisis, which intensified over the course of March and resulted
in social distancing and store lockdown policies throughout the country, led many clients to be forced to end their businesses
or close their stores temporarily, affecting the whole economy as well as our business. Since the intensification of the pandemic
happened in March, the second quarter was the most impacted quarter for businesses and the society.

Still,
we were able to report solid results for the quarter and the recovery we are seeing so far is very positive. Since April, we have
seen continued recovery in our transacted volumes, with TPV growing 9.1% year over year in April, 27.2% in May and 46.8% in June,
resulting in a year over year growth of 27.9% in the quarter to R$38.1 billion. Compared to the prior quarter, we were able to
add almost half a billion reais, proving our strong resilience even in the worst of times. In July, growth accelerated even further
to 128.8% year over year, with strong contribution from Coronavoucher .

To
help the population, the government distributed a financial aid, named " Coronavoucher " targeting the most vulnerable
part of the population as autonomous and informal workers and people without income, to help them through the crisis. As an acquirer,
Stone can take part in Coronavoucher transactions mainly through its Integrated Partners, benefitting from Coronavoucher volumes, which although being a debit-like transaction and having lower take rates, yield good revenue results. Stone transacted
R$2.0 billion in Coronavoucher in the second quarter of 2020 and R$9.3 billion in July. Excluding Coronavoucher ,
Stone's TPV still grew a strong 21.1% in the second quarter, with increased growth every month through July, which presented already
higher growth rates than our 1Q20 (42.4% vs. 42.1%).

Currently,
both our clients in the hubs, as well as our digital clients and Integrated Partners already present TPV above what they reported
in the first half of March (pre-COVID levels). In the second half of July, TPV was 46% above pre-COVID volumes and 11% higher excluding Coronavoucher . In the hubs, TPV was 9% higher.

The
pandemic and store closure policies also had an immediate effect in our client base as clients had to close their stores at once.
As we report our active client base on a 90-day basis 2 , we are currently seeing in June numbers the effect of stores
who had to close in March but have not returned to operation yet. This resulted in our 11.9 thousand reduction in active client
base (excluding TON) quarter over quarter. However, we already see continued upward trend in this number in July, as seen on chart
3 below, which indicates strong numbers for the third quarter of 2020.

Concerning
our operation, with the reopening of businesses in many cities, we currently have approximately 42% of our salespeople back on
the streets. We are constantly monitoring the situation in every city and allowing people to go back as they feel safe and we see
an improved condition in the city.

Also,
as we have seen a faster recovery than we previously anticipated and an encouraging performance in our hubs, we have already
started to hire back people to take part of our team, while maintaining our productivity levels high.

COVID-19 estimated financial
impacts to our business in the second quarter

In
the second quarter, we had some impacts from COVID-19 related decisions in our Company that directly affected our results.

We
estimate that these effects contributed to a negative impact of R$33.5 million to our results in the second quarter of 2020. This
includes: (i) R$15.2 million from severance costs related to the reduction in our workforce by 1,300 people in May, (ii) R$13.3
million resulting from COVID-19-related financial relief offered to clients, both in the form of subscription incentives as well
as prepayment discounts and (iii) R$5.0 million in the construction of a COVID-19 campaign hospital. The R$33.5 million does not
include the impact from lower transaction volumes.

Management Perspective given
for the Second Quarter 2020 and expectations for the Third Quarter 2020

Last
quarter, we gave our management perspective on adjusted pre-tax margin in light of the level of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19
pandemic. At the time, we expected that our adjusted pre-tax margin would be between 20% and 24% in the quarter.

As
a result of a better environment than we outlined at the time, we were able to deliver an adjusted pre-tax margin of 29.9% in the
quarter.

We also expect significant
improvement in our operating leverage through the rest of the year

Update on Our Strategy Roadmap in 2Q20

Financial Platform - Payments,
Banking, Credit

Despite
the effects from COVID-19 throughout the second quarter of 2020, we were able to report solid performance in our acquiring
business . TPV year over year growth accelerated every month since April resulting in a 27.9% growth in the quarter and an
almost half a billion reais increase compared to the previous quarter. Our client base (excluding TON), on the other hand,
reduced by 11.9 thousand clients to 519.4 thousand on a quarterly basis, since we report active clients as clients that have
transacted at least once over the preceding 90 days. Thus, this active base reduction reflects the lagged impacts from both
client mortality and clients that have stayed closed since the beginning of the pandemic. However, we already expect strong
net adds number for the third quarter of 2020. Our reported take rate was 1.67% or 1.77% when we exclude Coronavoucher volumes and the effect from COVID-19 financial relief given to clients. In the hubs, take rate was 6% up in the quarter, as
we are beginning to cross-sell new solutions to our clients.

Our
banking solution, launched in October 2019, is evolving fast and with increased growth pace through the pandemic. We ended the
quarter with 248,000 open accounts, double the previous quarter. In July, we further expanded the number of open accounts reaching
285,000. We have also been able to increase engagement with the number of transactions increasing by almost 2x quarter over quarter
and almost one fourth of our clients liquidating directly in their Stone account. The Stone prepaid card has also shown very strong
traction with TPV growing over 110% in the second quarter.

Chart 4: Banking
Number of Accounts (Thousand)

A
strong characteristic of our DNA is that everything we do as a product for our SMB clients, we want to do as a service for our
larger clients and partners. With that in mind, our banking platform focuses on two fronts. First, we offer banking services to
our SMB clients, improving their financial lives and offering them a single point of contact for them to solve their problems.
Second, as we did with acquiring in the past, we offer our banking platform as a service for partners to connect, where they can
use our technology and APIs to offer banking services to their clients. Both strategies have been performing well, adding value
to both types of clients. As a result of the initial traction from our banking-as-a-service strategy, our banking Revenue has multiplied
by 3.4x month over month in July and the number of transactions multiplied by 5x compared to June.

Finally,
the number of clients in our ABC platform increased to 67,000 in July compared to 45,000 in April as we further convert clients
from our banking-only platform to our integrated platform and onboard new clients with the ABC.

8

Regarding credit , we continue to evolve our product and credit scoring. We ended the quarter with 46,600 clients with our credit solution
compared to 30,900 in the previous quarter and our credit portfolio accelerated to R$491 million, compared to R$332 million in
the first quarter. In July, our offering evolved further to 56,100 clients and R$626 million outstanding balance.

We
see our new cohorts coming in healthy, already presenting lower delinquency rates than previous ones as well as higher ROAs.
Our portfolio delinquency is trending down and is currently at mid-single digit levels. Our portfolio is very diversified,
with the top 100 clients representing only 2% of the total outstanding balance. Also, we see that, over 40% of our
outstanding balance refer to clients that successfully paid in full and are now renewing their credit balances with us, so
they already have credit history with Stone. Finally, over 60% comes from clients from over 1,600 cities outside the state
capitals, with geographic diversification in our base through all Brazilian States.

Our Online Business - Acquiring,
Payment Service Provider (PSP), Gateway and other solutions to help clients go online

The
online trend accelerated over the lockdown period as many stores were obliged to close down physically during the pandemic and
clients increased the demand for online channels. This accelerated trend resulted in strong growth of our online business, with
total volumes processed by Stone in non-present card transactions 763.7% higher in July year over year and 94.3% higher excluding Coronavoucher .

We
count with a wide range of solutions for digital clients, serving from social sellers to large marketplaces. We saw strong revenue
growth coming from the digitization of SMBs, with SMB ecommerce revenues accelerating through July and more than doubling since
the start of the year, as shown on chart 7 below.

Chart 7:
Total Online SMB Revenue (Jan-20 Indexed to 100)

9

Overall,
the combination of our Integrated Partners and Digital clients increased from 41% of total volumes in the first quarter of 2020,
to 51% in the second quarter, driven by both the acceleration of the online trend leading to the strong performance of our online
business, as well as strong volumes from Coronavoucher . The latter contributed with R$2.0 billion in volumes in the second
quarter of 2020 and with R$9.3 billion in July.

Besides
payments, we recently started to offer different solutions to our clients to help them make this transition to the online world.
The Compre Local product, where clients can announce their businesses and be found by local people from their neighborhoods
has over 30,000 clients and helped clients through the pandemic. We also offer our clients different
software solutions to help them go online, by either helping them with social media management, advertising in marketplaces or
establishing an online presence.

We
believe we are on the right path for digitization of SMB merchants in Brazil, by offering them seamless payment solutions, as
well as other solutions such as software to help them establish their presence online.

Software and additional solutions
to SMBs

In software, we
continue to evolve in our two-fold strategy of (i) integrating some of our software solutions into our core SMB operations and
distribution model, and (ii) enabling our invested companies to integrate financial products into their offerings to provide software
and payments integrated solutions.

In the second quarter
of 2020, we advanced in building our ecosystem of software solutions for SMBs, reaching a total of 11 portfolio companies. This
contributed to a total software client base of 283,000 by the end of the second quarter of 2020, 83% growth compared to first quarter
of 2020, with client organic growth coming from different segments, but most notably from software companies aimed at helping clients
to sell online, a trend that accelerated through recent months. In July, the total number of software clients grew organically
reaching 305,000 thousand, 8% growth compared to the previous month.

Chart 8:
Number of Software Clients (Thousand)

As we advance in
integrating our financial platform into our invested companies' products, these companies can provide a more complete offering
to their clients while we benefit from their distribution channels and sales capabilities to increase our financial solution penetration
in their base. Also, they can count on referrals from our team, to penetrate their software solutions into Stone's base of clients.

As an
example, VHSys, a software company we invested in April 2019, is fully integrated with our acquiring and banking
solutions, resulting in strong cross-selling opportunities for our ABC platform. At the same time, Stone refers clients to
VHSys to whom they can offer their software solution.

Finally, our annualized
pro-forma software revenue reached over R$100 million in the second quarter of 2020, considering 100% of revenue from all our portfolio
companies. We will continue investing both in new companies and in our existing portfolio companies, focusing on expanding and
consolidating our

10

presence in the
SMB software market and facilitating our clients' lives through simple-to-use software solutions, that help them better manage
their businesses and grow more.

TON - "Se liga no TON"

We
are resuming our marketing investments in TON as we see continued improvement in the current environment. We believe
that we are also on the right direction in achieving the LTV/CAC ratio required to scale the business faster.

TON
ended the second quarter with 35.2 thousand active clients 3 compared to 23.2 thousand in the first quarter, representing
a 12.0 thousand net addition of clients in the period.

Adjusted Net Income (R$ millions) | 150.3 | 194.0 | (22.5%) | 312.6 | 380.3 | (17.8%)
Adjusted diluted EPS | 0.54 | 0.69 | (21.0%) | 1.12 | 1.35 | (16.9%)

The Brazilian economy was strongly hit by the
COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter. Still, we were able to deliver solid results, with strong TPV recovery and accelerating
year over year growth every month, which was supported by the gradual economic recovery as well as by our diversified client base
and complete focus on helping our clients.

Active client base

In the second quarter of 2020,
we reached an active client base 4 of 519.4 thousand, or a 48.6% growth year over year. Our client base compared to
the prior quarter decreased by 11.9 thousand as a result of the COVID-19 effect on our client base from the second half of March.
Since the active clients metric is a lagged metric defined by clients that have transacted at least once over the preceding 90
days, the immediate impact from client mortality and temporary store closures from the beginning of the crisis is reflected in
our June numbers. However, as we see on chart 3 in the "Update on COVID-19 business-related trends" section, our
active client base as we report it, is already on positive trend, and we expect strong net addition figures for the third quarter
of 2020 already.

Client base in TON 6 reached 35.2 thousand clients in the second quarter of 2020, over 51% higher than the previous quarter, adding 12.0 thousand clients.

Take rate

Our reported Take Rate was
1.67% in the second quarter of 2020. Excluding the effect from Coronavoucher volumes, which are debit-like transactions
and have lower take rate, as well as COVID-19-related financial relief given to clients, our take rate was 1.77%, 4 bps below the
previous quarter, which is mostly explained by stronger volumes from Integrated Partners and Digital clients, stronger mix of debit
over credit and lower prepayment penetration over credit TPV compared to the prior quarter.

Compared to the second quarter
of 2019, the decrease in take rate is mostly explained by the COVID-19-related factors mentioned above for the quarterly comparison,
as well as stronger volumes from Integrated Partners and Digital clients, higher debit over credit TPV mix and lower base rate
impacting our prepayment prices for larger clients.

In the hubs, take rate increased
6% quarter over quarter as we have been succeeding in cross selling our new solutions to our base.

Evolution of Take Rate 7

TPV

Total Payment Volume (TPV)
was R$38.1 billion, up 27.9% year over year in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior year period. Except for São
Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, where the impacts from COVID-19 were most severe, all Brazilian States presented positive year over year
TPV growth in the quarter, which reinforces the geographic diversification of our business as one positive catalyst of our solid
performance amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Our TPV is showing a positive
growth trend on a monthly basis since the outbreak started as we are seeing a faster recovery than expected. Our May TPV year over
year growth accelerated to 27.2% compared to 9.1% in April, and further expanded to 46.8% in June and 128.8% in July. Excluding
the impact from Coronavoucher , our TPV growth in the second quarter of 2020 was 21.1%, with accelerating year over year
growth every month.

The recovery in volumes is
coming both from our SMB clients in the hubs, as well as from our integrated partners and digital clients, as all of them already
present TPV above pre-COVID-19 levels.

7 According
to IFRS 15, subscription revenue is accounted for over the expected life of merchants on a linear basis. As part of the annual
assessment of assumptions for linearization of subscription revenue, life of merchants was revised upwards in 3Q19, contributing
positively 3 bps to 3Q19 take rate of 1.91% compared with 2Q19.

Total Revenue and Income

Total
Revenue and Income was R$667.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 13.8% from R$586.2 million in the second quarter
of 2019. Total Revenue and Income growth was driven primarily by the 27.9% increase in TPV, partially offset by the 18 bps lower
take rate year over year.

Excluding
Other Financial Income, which is mainly comprised of interest on cash, our Total Revenue and Income grew 15.5% to R$634.5 million
in the second quarter of 2020.

We
estimate that our COVID-19-related client incentives impacted our Total Revenue and Income in the quarter by a total of R$13.3
million.

Net Revenue from Transaction
Activities and Other Services

Net Revenue from Transaction
Activities and Other Services was R$227.5 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 28.3%, compared with the second
quarter of 2019. This increase was mostly due to the R$8.3 billion growth in TPV year over year.

Net Revenue from Subscription
Services and Equipment Rental

Net Revenue from Subscription
Services and Equipment Rental was R$80.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, 7.8% above the second quarter of 2019. This increase
was primarily due to the higher number of SMB Active Clients, partially offset by lower average subscription per client, which
is mainly a result of additional new-client subscription incentives, including R$7.9 million of COVID-19-related incentives given
in the quarter to the most harshly impacted sectors.

Financial Income

Financial Income was R$326.6
million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 9.9% year over year, primarily due to the 27.9% growth in TPV year over year
combined with the evolution of our credit offering. These effects were partially compensated by (i) lower mix of credit over debit
and (ii) lower prepayment prices, with R$5.5 million in COVID-19 related incentives given by the Company to help our clients go
through this uncertain scenario.

Revenue from our credit solution
is accounted for at fair value and factors in expected delinquency rates.

15

Other Financial Income

Other Financial Income was
R$32.9 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease of 11.4% compared to the second quarter of 2019. This decrease was mainly
due to the lower base rate, which resulted in lower yields on the Company's cash balance and short-term investments.

16

Costs and Expenses

In
the second quarter of 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued to invest in the technology of our ecosystem and in the
growth of our new solutions, including banking, software, credit and TON, as well as to help our clients navigate through this
crisis and go online.

Chart 13:
Operating Leverage 8

Overall,
Operating Costs and Expenses as a percentage of Total Revenue and Income increased by 15.2 percentage points year over year and
13.6 percentage points on a sequential basis to 60.4%. This higher level of total costs and expenses is mostly explained by (i)
some one-off items amounting to R$29.1 million in the quarter as detailed below, as well as (ii) higher investments in our new
solutions, including marketing expenses for our Compre Local campaign, (iii) operating deleverage due to lower revenues
because of the COVID-19 pandemic and (iv) other effects, including extra facilities expenses related to the return of workspaces
and third-party services expenses, among other.

We
expect significant improvement in our operating leverage through the rest of the year.

12 Includes extra facilities expenses
related to the return of workspaces and third-party services expenses, among others.

17

The
one-off items impacting our second quarter 2020 results are as follow:

(i)
severance costs related to the reduction of our workforce in May amounting to R$15.2 million;

(ii)
one-time fine from a card scheme in the amount of R$14.0 million related to the non-usage of a specific product called 3DS;

We
do not expect the items above to repeat over the next quarters. We will, however, continue to invest in our business and new solutions
going forward. Also, as we currently see an economic recovery faster than we expected at the time, we are already hiring people
back to our Company.

18

Costs
 and Expenses

Cost of Services

Cost
of Services were R$198.7 million or 29.8% of Total Revenue and Income in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 12.6 percentage
points over the second quarter of 2019. This increase was mainly due to (i) higher investments in new solutions and technology,
(ii) higher personnel expenses related to severance costs from the reduction of our workforce in May and variable compensation,
(iii) one-time fine from a card scheme in the amount of R$14.0 million related to the non-usage of a specific product called 3DS,
(iv) higher depreciation and amortization and (v) higher provisions and losses.

Compared with the first quarter
of 2020, Cost of Services increased as a percentage of Total Revenue and Income to 29.8% from 20.9%, mainly due to items (i), (ii),
(iii) and (v) above.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative Expenses were
R$89.9 million, or 13.5% of Total Revenue and Income, broadly in line with the prior year-period, despite severance costs related
to the reduction of our workforce in May.

Compared with the first
quarter of 2020, Administrative Expenses increased from 10.3% of Total Revenue and Income to 13.5%, mainly due to (i) higher
Personnel Expenses, which was mostly related to severance costs from the reduction in our workforce in May as well as
variable compensation, (ii) higher third party services expenses and (iii) expenses from new solutions, mainly new investees
in software.

Selling Expenses

Selling Expenses were R$114.7
million in the quarter, an increase of 31.4% versus the second quarter of 2019, mostly due to (i) marketing expenses related to
the Compre Local campaign, (ii) investments in new solutions, mainly marketing from TON as we resume investments
and (iii) severance costs related to the reduction of our workforce in May, which were
partially offset by higher efficiency reflecting benefits from the resizing executed in May.

Compared with the first quarter
of 2020, Selling Expenses as a percentage of revenues increased by 1.6 percentage points, explained by the same factors from the
year over year comparison above.

Financial Expenses, Net

Financial Expenses, Net were
R$62.6 million, a decrease of 20.5%, compared with the second quarter of 2019, mainly due to the lower CDI rate, which more than
compensated the higher volumes in the quarter.

Compared to the previous quarter,
Financial Expenses, net as a percentage of Total Revenue and Income decreased from 20.7% to 9.4%. This reduction is mainly explained
by (i) the negative effect related to the COVID-19 in the first quarter of 2020 when we took measures prioritizing short-term liquidity,
(ii) lower CDI rates and (iii) a higher proportion of own capital to fund prepayment and credit operations.

19

Costs
 and Expenses

Other Operating Expenses, Net

Other Operating Expenses, Net
were R$40.1 million in the second quarter of 2020, 24.0% higher than in the second quarter of 2019. This higher figure is mainly
related to (i) higher share-based compensation expenses, mostly related to the tax and social charges provisions in relation to
the STNE stock appreciation in the quarter and (ii) R$5.0 million in donation to a COVID-19 campaign hospital.

Compared to the first quarter
of 2020, Other Operating Expenses, net was R$36.6 million higher, explained by items (i) and (ii) above, as well as by the reversion
of tax and social charges provisions in the first quarter of 2020, related to the STNE stock depreciation in the period.

Profit Before Income Taxes

Profit Before Income Taxes was
R$159.8 million, or a 23.6% decrease year over year, with a pre-tax margin of 24.0% compared with 35.7% in the second quarter of
2019. This reduction is mainly related to (i) COVID-19 effects, which consist of client incentives, construction of a temporary
hospital and severance costs related to the reduction of our workforce in 1,300 employees in May, (ii) one-off expenses outlined
in the beginning of the "Costs and Expenses" section above ; (iii) continued strong investment in new solutions,
including TON, banking, credit and software, as well as investment in technology and (iv) higher share-based expenses. These effects
were partially offset by lower financial expenses.

Adjusted pre-tax margin was 29.9%,
higher than management's perspective given at the last earnings result of between 20.0% and 24.0%, as the economic recovery from
the COVID-19 pandemic is trending better than anticipated.

Income Tax and Social Contribution

During the second quarter of
2020, the Company incurred R$36.2 million in Income Tax and Social Contribution expenses, or a 22.7% effective tax rate, compared
with a 17.8% tax rate in the second quarter of 2019.

20

Net Income and EPS

Adjusted Net Income was R$150.3
million in the second quarter of 2020, with a margin of 22.5%, compared with R$194.0 million and a margin of 33.1% in the second
quarter of 2019. The main factors that contributed to the 22.5% decrease in Adjusted Net Income were the factors (i), (ii) and
(iii) mentioned above for Profit Before Income Taxes, which were partially offset by lower Financial Expenses, Net as a percentage
of Total Revenue and Income.

Adjusted Net Margin for the second
quarter of 2020 was in line with the first quarter of 2020.

Net Income was R$123.6 million
in the second quarter of 2020, compared with Net Income of R$171.9 million in the second quarter of 2019. Net Margin decreased
by 10.8 percentage points to 18.5% year over year in the second quarter of 2020. This reduction is mainly explained by the same
factors mentioned above for the variation in Profit Before Income Taxes.

Adjusted diluted EPS for the
Company was R$0.54 per share in the second quarter of 2020, 21.0% lower than in the second quarter of 2019, mostly explained by
the 22.5% lower Adjusted Net Income, partially compensated by a slightly lower diluted number of shares. GAAP basic EPS was R$0.46
per share, a decrease of 26.4% year over year, mostly explained by the 28.1% lower GAAP Net Income in the period.

Cash
Flow
Cash Flow

Because
of the nature of the prepayment and credit businesses of the Company, the dynamics of the sale of receivables in Brazil, Stone
management looks at Adjusted Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in) Operating Activities and Adjusted Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in)
Financing Activities, both non-IFRS metrics. These metrics consist of transferring the following four working capital items 13 from our operating cash flow to our financing cash flow: (i) changes in Accounts Payable to Clients; (ii) changes in Accounts
Receivables from Card Issuers; (iii) Interest Income Received, Net of Costs 14 , which is shown separately in our Cash
Flow Statement but is directly linked to the funding of our prepayment operation and (iv) Loans Held for Sale related to our credit
operation (see Appendix "Notes on Cash Flows" for further details).

The
table below is a summarized version of our Statement of Cash Flows and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (a non-IFRS metric), along with
a reconciliation of these metrics with our managerial (non-IFRS) view of them, as well as reconciliation of Adjusted Net Cash Provided
by/ (Used in) Operating Activities and Adjusted Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in) Financing Activities to Net Cash Provided by/ (Used
in) Operating Activities and Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in) Financing Activities.

____________________________

13 Each
“Accounts Payable to Clients” recognized as a liability on our balance sheet is directly linked to an “Accounts
Receivable from Card Issuers” recognized as an asset in our balance sheet. The Company receives payment from issuing banks
first, and only then pays its clients, thus having no working capital requirement. When a client opts to be paid early (prepayment),
the Company has a working capital requirement. However, the Company has the option to sell the receivables related to those payables
from card issuers in order to meet such working capital requirements. The combined effect to the cash flow is a positive operational
cash flow equivalent to net fees earned by providing such prepayment service. Whenever management opts to fund its prepayment
operation with sources other than the sale of its own receivables, Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in) Operating Activities may be
affected, as discussed in “Note on the impact of different funding sources for prepayment in the financial statements”
in the appendix. However, management does not view such decision as translating into higher or lower ability of our business to
generate cash operationally. In addition to prepayment, the Company has started to offer credit solutions to clients. The Company
intends to fund its credit operation primarily through third parties (i.e. FIDC and debt), as well as with some own cash. Given
the operational nature of our credit business, as in the case of prepayment mentioned above, management does not view related
funding decision as translating into higher or lower ability of our business to generate cash operationally.

14 Interest Income Received, Net of Costs, consists of two items: (i) financial income from our prepayment activity,
less (ii) financial expenses related to the sale of receivables. The first item has direct influence on the level of Accounts
Payable to Clients in our balance sheet; the second item has direct influence on the amount of Accounts Receivables from Card
Issuers on our balance sheet.

Cash
Flow

Adjusted (non-IFRS) Free Cash
Flow

The Company defines Adjusted
Free Cash Flow 15 , a non-IFRS metric, as Adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities (non-IFRS), less
purchase of property and equipment and purchases and development of intangible assets ("Capex").

The Company reported
Adjusted Free Cash Flow of R$141.4 million in the second quarter of 2020, or 77.7% higher than in the prior-year-period, when
the Company reported R$79.6 million in Adjusted Free Cash Flow. The increase in Adjusted Free Cash Flow is explained by (i)
R$115.3 million lower Net Cash Used in Operating Activities related to working capital and (ii) R$26.0 million higher
Adjustments to Net Income mostly related to higher depreciation and amortization levels. These effects were partially
compensated by (iii) R$48.3 million lower Net Income and (iv) R$31.3 million higher Capex. The Lower Net Cash Used in
Operating Activities related to working capital is mostly due to (i) R$30.2 million lower Net Cash Used in Operating
Activities from Recoverable Taxes; (ii) R$20.8 million higher Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Taxes Payable
and (iii) R$20.8 million higher Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Other Liabilities.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in)
Operating Activities

In the second quarter of 2020, Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities was R$1,121.3 million, R$3,004.9 million higher than the second quarter of 2019,
when the Company reported Net Cash Used in Operating Activities of R$1,883.6 million. This positive variation is mainly explained
by (i) R$1,856.9 million lower Net Cash Used in Operating Activities from Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers and (ii) R$1,255.1
million increase in Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Accounts Payable to Clients. These effects were partially offset
by R$182.8 million higher Net Cash Used in Operating Activities from Trade Accounts Receivable and Other Assets, which includes
R$198.5 million related to Loans Held for Sales from our credit operation.

Adjusting for the effects on
table 7 above, our Adjusted (non-IFRS) Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities 16 was R$252.7 million, compared
with R$159.6 million in Adjusted Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities in the second quarter of 2019. The R$93.1 million higher
Adjusted Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities is explained by items (i), (ii) and (iii) from the " Adjusted (non-IFRS)
Free Cash Flow" section above.

Net Cash Provided
by Investing Activities

Net Cash Provided by Investing
Activities was R$1,442.6 million for the second quarter of 2020, R$1,547.3 million higher compared with the second quarter
of 2019, when the Company reported R$104.7 million of Net Cash Used in Investing Activities. The higher Net Cash Provided by Investing
Activities for the second quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by R$1,638.1 million higher Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities
from Proceeds from Short-Term Investments, net compared with the second quarter of 2019, partially offset by higher Net Cash Used
in Investing Activities from Purchase of Property and Equipment and Purchases and Development of Intangible Assets ("Capex"),
which were R$111.3 million in the second quarter of 2020, compared with R$80.1 million in the second quarter of 2019.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net Cash Used in Financing
Activities was R$1,303.3 million for the second quarter of 2020, compared with Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities of
R$2,063.2 million for the second quarter of 2019. Net Cash Used in Financing Activities for the second quarter of 2020 was R$3,366.5
million higher mainly driven by (i) Payment of Borrowings and Amortization of FIDCs in the total amount of R$1,833.7 million, compared
with R$1.2 million for the second quarter of 2019, and (ii) Proceeds from Borrowings and FIDCs of R$567.7 million in the second
quarter of 2020, compared to R$2,070.0 million in the second quarter of 2019. Payment of Borrowings in the second quarter of 2020
was mainly related to (i) the amortization of the remaining outstanding amount of FIDC AR I and the start of the amortization of
series I and II from FIDC AR II, (ii) repayment of one bilateral loan in the amount of USD100 million and (iii) amortization of
CCB ( "Cédula de Crédito Bancário" ) contracts in the principal amount of R$710 million. These
payments were partially offset by Proceeds from Borrowings in the amount of R$550 million from a CCB contract.

Activities was also affected by the repurchase of shares of R$28.8 million in the quarter.

Adjusting for the effects on
table 7 above, our Adjusted (non-IFRS) Net Cash Used in Financing Activities 17 was R$434.7 million in the second
quarter of 2020, compared with Adjusted (non-IFRS) Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities of R$19.9 million in the second quarter
of 2019, a difference of R$454.6 million. This difference is related to (i) R$3,337.7 million higher Payment of Borrowings (net
of issuance), mostly from FIDC and CCB contracts amortization and the repayment of a USD100 bilateral agreement, as well as (ii)
R$198.5 million from credit given to our clients and (iii) R$28.8 million in repurchase of shares, partially compensated by (iv)
R$3,110.3 million of positive working capital contribution compared with the second quarter of 2019.

Adjusted Net Cash

Management assesses net liquidity of
the Company by Adjusted Net Cash, a non-IFRS metric. It consists of the items detailed in the Table 6 below:

Table
8: Adjusted Net Cash

Adjusted Net Cash (R$mm) | 2Q20 | 4Q19
Cash and cash equivalents | 2,776.8 | 968.3
Short-term investments | 788.7 | 2,937.0
Accounts receivable from card issuers | 12,921.0 | 14,066.8
Loans held for sale | 506.9 | 124.7
Derivative financial instrument (b) | 2.4 | 12.3
Adjusted Cash | 16,995.7 | 18,109.2
Accounts payable to clients | (6,940.2) | (6,500.1)
Loans and financing (a) | (2,297.7) | (2,912.0)
Obligations to FIDC quota holders | (2,587.0) | (3,710.9)
Derivative financial instrument (b) | (16.5) | (1.4)
Adjusted Debt | (11,841.5) | (13,124.4)
Adjusted Net Cash | 5,154.2 | 4,984.8

(a)
Loans and financing were reduced by the effects of leases liabilities recognized under IFRS 16.

(b)
Refers to economic hedge of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments denominated in U.S. dollars

Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers
and Loans Held for Sale are accounted for at their fair value in our balance sheet.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company´s
Adjusted Net Cash position was R$5,154.2 million compared with R$4,984.8 million on December 31, 2019, an increase of R$169.3 million.

This increase can be explained
by the following factors:

· | Cash and Cash Equivalents plus Short-term
Investments decreased by R$339.9 million, from R$3,905.4 million on December 31, 2019 to R$3,565.5 million on June 30, 2020;
· | Loans and financing plus Obligations
to FIDC quota holders decreased R$1,738.2 million from R$6,622.9 million on December 31, 2019 to R$4,884.7 million on June 30,
2020 as the company was able to partially amortize its FIDC and debt obligations;
· | This amortization was mostly funded
with higher sale of receivables, which can be seen by the fact that Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers, net of Accounts Payable
to Clients decreased R$1,586.0 million, from R$7,566.7 million on December 13, 2019 to R$5,980.7 million on June 30, 2020.
· | The Company invested R$382.3 million
in its Loans Held for Sale, going from R$124.7 million on December 31, 2019 to R$506.9 million on June 30, 2020. As soon as the
market conditions improve, the Company expects to fund its Credit business with third-party funding.
· | Finally, derivative financial instruments
net position decreased from R$11.0 million on December 31, 2019 to a negative position of R$14.2 million on June 30, 2020.

Combined, these factors generated
R$1,282.8 million lower Adjusted Debt, mostly offset by the R$1,113.5 million lower Adjusted Cash, which explains the improvement
in Adjusted Net Cash of R$169.3 million.

Forward-Looking
Statements

This
press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date they were first
issued and were based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections as well as the beliefs and assumptions of
management. These statements identify prospective information and may include words such as “believe,” “may,”
“will,” “aim,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“expect,” “forecast,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,”
“aspiration,” “objectives,” “should,” “purpose,” “belief,” and similar,
or variations of, or the negative of such words and expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying
words.

Forward-looking
statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond
Stone’s control.

Stone’s
actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied in forward-looking statements due to a number of factors,
including but not limited to: more intense competition than expected, lower addition of new clients, regulatory measures, more
investments in our business than expected, and our inability to execute successfully upon our strategic initiatives, among other
factors. In particular, due to the high level of uncertainty with respect to the duration and scope of the COVID-19 crisis, the
quantification of impacts on our financial and operating results cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

About
Non-IFRS Financial Measures

To
supplement the financial measures presented in this press release and related conference call, presentation, or webcast in accordance
with IFRS, Stone also presents the following non-IFRS measures of financial performance: Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS (diluted),
Adjusted Net Margin, Adjusted Net Cash Provided by / (Used in) Operating Activities, Adjusted Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing
Activities, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Cash / (Debt) and Adjusted Pre-Tax Margin.

A
“non-IFRS financial measure” refers to a numerical measure of Stone’s historical or future financial performance
or financial position that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly
comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS in Stone’s financial statements. Stone provides certain
non-IFRS measures as additional information relating to its operating results as a complement to results provided in accordance
with IFRS. The non-IFRS financial information presented herein should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute
for or superior to, the financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. There are significant limitations associated
with the use of non-IFRS financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-IFRS information, even where similarly
titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare Stone’s performance to that of other companies.

Stone
has presented Adjusted Net Income to eliminate the effect of items from Net Income that it does not consider indicative of its
continuing business performance within the period presented. Stone defines Adjusted Net Income as Net Income (Loss) for the Period,
adjusted for (1) non-cash expenses related to the grant of share-based compensation and the fair value (mark-to-market) adjustment
for share-based compensation classified as a liability, (2) amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions, (3) one-time
impairment charges, (4) unusual income and expenses and (5) tax expense relating to the foregoing adjustments. Adjusted Net Margin
is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by Total Revenue and Income.

Stone
has presented Adjusted Net Cash Provided by/ (Used in) Operating Activities, in order to provide an addition view of cash flow
from operations without the effect of funding decisions related to our financial solutions, that include prepayment business and
credit solutions. Stone has presented Adjusted Free Cash Flow metric, which has limitations as it omits certain components of
the overall Cash Flow Statement and does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. For example,
this metric does not incorporate the portion of payments representing principal reductions of debt or cash payments for business
acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Free Cash Flows measures only as a complement to our entire
consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Stone
has presented Adjusted Net Cash metric in order to adjust its Net Cash / (Debt) by the balances of Accounts Receivable from Card
Issuers, Loans Held for Sale and Accounts Payable to Clients, since these lines vary according to the Company’s funding
source together with the lines of (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents, (ii) Short-term Investments, (iii) Debt balances and (iv) Derivative
Financial Instruments related to economic hedges of short term investments in assets, due to the nature of Stone’s business
and its prepayment and credit operations.

Guidance
for third quarter 2020, where adjusted, is provided on a non-IFRS basis. Stone cannot reconcile its expected Adjusted Pre-Tax
Margin, calculated as profit before income taxes excluding share-based compensation expenses, amortization of fair value adjustments
and other expenses divided by total revenue and income, to expected profit before income taxes under “Management Perspective
given for the Second Quarter 2020 and expectations for the Third Quarter 2020” without unreasonable effort because certain
items that impact profit before income taxes and other reconciling metrics are out of Stone's control and/or cannot be reasonably
predicted at this time, which unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s IFRS financial results.

Appendix
 - Notes on Cash Flows

Note on the impact
of different funding sources for prepayment in the financial statements

A natural
consequence of TPV growth is the corresponding increase in both Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers and Accounts Payable to
Clients. When the Company makes a prepayment to its clients as part of its working capital solutions offering, it reduces
accounts payable by the corresponding prepaid amount plus fees earned by providing such prepayment service. In order to fund the
prepayment operation, the Company predominantly uses one of the following sources of funding: (i) the sale of its receivables
from card issuers to third-party banks or financial institutions, (ii) the issuance of senior and/or mezzanine quotas by FIDCs
to institutional investors, (iii) the issuance of debentures and private loans or (iv) its own capital from capital contributions
or cash flows from operations. These funding options lead to different effects on the Company’s statements of balance sheet
and cash flows:

1 | Sale of receivables: the true sale of receivables results
in the derecognition of Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers. As a result, when a prepayment operation is funded through the
true sale of receivables, both Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers and Accounts Payable to Clients are derecognized from the
balance sheet in the same amount and the combined effect to the cash flows is a positive operational cash flow equivalent to net
fees earned by providing such prepayment service.
2 | Issuance of FIDC 14 senior and/or
mezzanine quotas: when the Company launches a new FIDC in order to raise capital, the amount raised from senior and/or mezzanine
quota holders less structuring and transaction costs will be recognized on its balance sheet as cash and as a liability to senior
and/or mezzanine quota holders. The Company then transfers its receivables from card issuers in its operating subsidiary to the
FIDC and uses the cash to fund the prepayment operations. As a result of consolidating the FIDC in the Company’s financial
statements, the Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers held by the FIDC remain on its consolidated balance sheet. This set of transactions
generates a positive impact on the Company’s cash flows from financing activities in the amount received by the FIDC from
senior and/or mezzanine quota holders less structuring and transaction costs. However, since Accounts Receivable from Card Issuers
remains on the balance sheet but the Accounts Payable to Clients are derecognized, these transactions also cause a negative impact
on our cash flow from operations. The net effect of impacts in cash flow from operations and cash flow from financing activities
is positive.
3 | Debentures and private loans: when the Company issues
a debenture or takes a private loan, the effect on the Company’s statements of balance sheet and cash flows is similar to
the issuance of FIDC senior and/or mezzanine quotas.
4 | Deployment of the Company’s capital: when the Company
uses its own capital to fund prepayment operations, it does not sell its receivables from card issuers and they remain on its
balance sheet. However, its Accounts Payable to Clients are derecognized, and therefore these transactions cause a negative impact
on the Company’s cash flow from operations.

Note on the impact
of different funding sources for our credit solution in the financial statements

Besides
the prepayment operation, the Company has recently started to offer credit solutions to clients, which also require funding.
In addition to the sale of receivables, debentures and private loans mentioned above, the Company has the following main funding
alternatives for the credit business:

1 | Bilateral agreements with third-party financial institutions:
the company may enter into agreement with third-party financial institutions, so that such institutions are the lenders of record
for Stone´s clients. In such case, the third-party financial institution would bear the funding need and the credit risk
of the transaction and the Company would recognize a fee for rendering services related to the transaction. This was the alternative
the Company opted for its initial pilot phase of the credit solution, which has a positive effect in cash flow from operations.
2 | Issuance of Credit FIDC senior and/or mezzanine quotas:
in that case, the company raises funds in the capital markets and issues senior and/or mezzanine quotas to investors, while keeping
a very small amount of own cash invested in subordinated quotas. Besides providing most of the funding needed for the credit offering,
this alternative also reduces the Company´s overall exposure to credit risk. The impact in our consolidated statement of
cash flows has similar logic as the issuance of FIDC senior and/or mezzanine quotas mentioned in the section “Note on
the impact of different funding sources for prepayment in the financial statements ” above.
3 | Deployment of the Company’s capital: if the Company
uses its own capital to fund its credit operations, it decreases its cash balance and recognizes loan assets in its balance sheet.
If the Company increases the amount of such loan assets, this has a negative impact in our Net Cash provided by/(used in) Operating
Activities.
4 | Sale of loan assets: the true sale of loan assets results
in its derecognition from our balance sheet, impacting positively our Net Cash provided by/(used in) Operating Activities.

As of June
30, 2020, the credit portfolio outstanding to Stone´s clients was R$491.1 million. The Company funded R$26.9 million from
a third-party financial institution through the funding model explained in the topic (1) above and R$464.3 million is funded by
the Company’s own capital through an investment in a FIDC and this amount is recognized in Loans Held for Sale in the Company´s
balance sheet. The Company, however, intends to scale its credit operation mainly through third-party funding, especially alternative
(2) mentioned above.

Loan assets
held in the Company´s balance sheet are accounted for at their fair value, which factors in market discount rates and expected
delinquency, thus representing the value that the Company would most probably be able to sell such assets.
