Q1 2026 earnings summary13 May, 2026

Executive summary

  • Q1 2026 featured strong performance in business units with long-term contracts, operational efficiency gains, and improved gross rental margin by 4.1 p.p. year-over-year, but also challenges from seasonality and holidays impacting short-term rentals and used asset sales.

  • Two M&A transactions (Engelog and Braslift) were closed and integrated, strengthening the agro-industrial and forklift units, with SAP and governance structures implemented; investment in Escad was announced in April 2026.

  • The company is leveraging its strong capital structure and liquidity (BRL 1 billion in cash) to pursue growth opportunities, including fleet renewal, market consolidation, and expansion of pre-owned equipment stores to at least 30 units by year-end.

  • Efforts are underway to diversify the client base and regions to reduce seasonality impacts, with technology and AI being developed to streamline rental processes.

  • The company is transitioning to a new governance model, segmenting into four groups for greater transparency and alignment.

Financial highlights

  • Gross revenue for Q1 2026 was BRL 488.5 million, up 1.4% year-over-year; gross rental revenue was BRL 378.3 million, down 6.3% year-over-year due to contract demobilizations and seasonality.

  • Revenue from asset sales reached BRL 110.2 million, up 73.2% year-over-year, driven by sales of older, fully depreciated assets.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was BRL 213.5 million, up 35.1% year-over-year, mainly due to BRL 42.0 million in bargain purchase gains from acquisitions.

  • Net income was BRL 13.3 million, up 6.3% year-over-year, but down 55.2% sequentially from 4Q25.

  • Free cash flow for shareholders was BRL 28 million after operational and financial activities.

Outlook and guidance

  • Management expects to continue reducing leverage, aiming for a ratio below 2x EBITDA.

  • Organic revenue growth is projected in the low double digits for 2026, with EBITDA margins expected to exceed 50% for the full year.

  • CapEx will remain focused on fleet renewal and selective expansion, with positive dynamics anticipated for the next two years and expansion of pre-owned equipment stores targeting annual used-asset sales above BRL 1 billion.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
