Minerva Foods financial strategy and debt reduction

Overview

Minerva Foods has announced a strategic shift to prioritize debt reduction and deleveraging. The company intends to use cash generation to lower its net debt-to-EBITDA ratio, which is currently 2.9 times.

As part of this financial discipline, the company will limit dividend distributions to 25% of adjusted annual net profit until leverage reaches adequate levels. This follows inquiries from the CVM regarding previous statements. Since the start of 2026, the company has already repurchased and canceled over R$ 1.2 billion in bonds on the secondary market.
