Executive summary
3Q26 consolidated net revenue rose 14.4% YoY to R$12,278m; EBITDA increased 13.7% to R$4,029m and net income rose 29.1% to R$1,125m versus adjusted 3Q25.
Rental growth, higher utilization and fleet rejuvenation supported execution; 9M26 annualized ROIC spread was 6.4 p.p.
Financial highlights
Consolidated EBIT was R$2,516m, up 11.3% versus adjusted 3Q25; rental revenue was R$5,506m, up 12.5%, and Seminovos revenue was R$6,772m, up 16.0%.
3Q25 comparisons adjust for Green IPI effects, including R$137m on EBITDA, R$792m on EBIT and R$613m on net income; adjusted net income also excludes the Locamerica tax-loss carryforward write-off.
9M26 cash generated from rental operations was R$9,663m; cash generation before interest and other items was R$2,973m.
Outlook and guidance
Priorities include restoring Car Rental rates, pricing new Fleet Rental contracts for lower residual values, adjusting depreciation rates and expanding Seminovos capacity and commercial execution.
Higher depreciation and interest rates support high-single-digit Rent a Car price increases to preserve profitability and ROIC spread; volume growth may moderate or remain flat.
Q4 enters the December peak season with good fleet availability; pricing is expected to capture more excess demand alongside good rental volumes.
New vehicle relationships aim to grow electrified fleet share on competitive terms, with hybrids an initial focus; Mexico plans remain on track.
