Direcional Engenharia has initiated several corporate and operational developments. In August 2026, the company’s Board of Directors approved a share buyback program authorizing the repurchase of up to 32 million shares, representing approximately 9.8% of its circulating shares. The program was intended to span 18 months to maximize shareholder value through capital structure management.

During the same period, the company expanded its real estate portfolio by acquiring a 4,000-square-meter plot of land in the Lapa neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro. The site, previously expropriated by the municipal government, is slated for a residential project. Due to its location in a protected heritage zone, the development must comply with strict urban planning regulations, including height restrictions and specific design requirements to maintain access to the Selarón Steps.
