Raízen's R$61.4 bn debt restructuring plan approved by São Paulo court
On 30 July 2026 the São Paulo 3ª Vara de Falências e Recuperações Judiciais homologated Raízen's extrajudicial recovery plan. The court decision was backed by 81.6 % of the company's unsecured financial creditors and faced no objections. The plan restructures roughly R$ 61.4 billion of unsecured debt, converting about 45 % of the credits into equity units (priced at R$ 0.50 per unit) and refinancing the remaining 55 % with new debt instruments. A capital increase of between R$ 3.5 bn and R$ 4 bn will be funded by Shell Brasil and, if it participates, by Aguassanta Participações, the family holding of Rubens Ometto. The restructuring also calls for the segregation of Raízen's fuel‑distribution and bio‑energy businesses and a programme of asset divestments.
The approval is described by the company as strengthening stakeholder confidence and providing a sustainable capital structure while it proceeds with the planned corporate reorganisation and asset sales.
