Americanas, Ecorodovias, and PetroReconcavo Report Key Updates

Americanas S.A. (AMER3) reported preliminary, unaudited Q1 net revenue of R$ 3.76 billion ($702.8 million).

This marks a rise from R$ 3.63 billion ($678.5 million) noted in the same period in 2023.

Americanas is known for one of the largest judicial reorganization filings in Brazil. The company also reported adjusted operational Ebitda of R$ 284 million ($53.1 million).

The firm clarified that these Ebitda figures exclude costs associated with judicial recovery and investigation.

They also do not include impairment losses, asset write-offs, or discounts approved in the recovery plan.

Furthermore, with the debt reduction strategy, termed “haircut,” Americanas expects a significant third-quarter gain, likely enough to reverse the current negative net equity.
