Braskem stock trades 67.9 percent below its yearly high
Published on 09/24/2026 at 23:35 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSBraskem stock stood at BRL 3.85 on B3 on September 24, 2026, placing it 67.9 percent below the 52-week high of BRL 12.00. The immediate company catalyst is a court-backed restructuring process that places creditor protection at the center of the investment case.
Restructuring sets the risk frame
On August 28, 2026, StockTitan reported that a Sao Paulo court accepted Braskem and certain subsidiaries into an extrajudicial reorganization proceeding. The decision suspended covered creditor enforcement actions for 120 days, while the affected companies have 90 days to demonstrate that the required creditor quorum has been reached.
That timetable gives the company a defined legal window, but it also makes liquidity and creditor negotiations central valuation variables. The 120-day stay is therefore more than a legal detail because it sets the near-term period for Braskem to advance its restructuring plan.
Half-year profit improved sharply
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, Braskem reported net profit of BRL 4.569 billion, compared with BRL 242 million in the same period of 2025, according to MetaTrader. Net revenue was BRL 37.203 billion, down from BRL 37.317 billion a year earlier, while gross margin increased to 17.2 percent from 4.5 percent.
The contrast matters for investors: earnings improved materially, yet operating cash flow was negative BRL 2.499 billion in the first half, compared with negative BRL 237 million in the prior-year period. Profit recovery has not removed the balance-sheet pressure highlighted by the restructuring process.
B3 price stays below yearly high
Braskem shares were quoted at BRL 3.85 on B3 on September 24, 2026, with a 52-week range of BRL 3.05 to BRL 12.00. The stock was unchanged against the prior close of BRL 3.85, leaving the legal timetable and cash generation as the clearest company-specific markers for the next valuation discussion.
