Guararapes (ISIN BRGUARACNOR4) closed at BRL 8.61 on B3 on October 5, 2026, up 13.74 percent from the previous close of BRL 7.57. The move followed a second-quarter earnings picture in which net income reached BRL 168 million, according to Money Times on September 28, 2026.

Profit reaches BRL 168 million

The second-quarter net profit was 36.2 percent higher than in the same period of 2025 and marked the strongest result for that period, the report said. Guararapes also delivered adjusted EBITDA of BRL 461 million, an increase of 12.7 percent year over year.

Adjusted EBITDA margin rose 1.4 percentage points to 17.1 percent. Consolidated net revenue reached BRL 2.7 billion, 3.3 percent above the second quarter of 2025, giving investors a clearer measure of operating scale than the share move alone.

Retail growth meets a slower pace

Apparel same-store sales increased 7.8 percent in the second quarter, compared with 15.8 percent a year earlier, according to Money Times. The metric still marked the 12th consecutive quarter of apparel growth, but the year-over-year comparison shows why margins and conversion will remain central to the next results update.

The company operates the Riachuelo retail chain and combines clothing sales with e-commerce, financial services and the Shopping Midway mall, according to Yahoo Finance. Its B3 listing is identified as Guararapes Confecções S.A. under the BRGUARACNOR4 ISIN by Finzer.

Target remains above the close

Yahoo Finance lists a 12-month target estimate of BRL 12.15 and a high target of BRL 14.00 against the BRL 8.61 close on October 5, 2026. The average estimate stands 41.1 percent above that closing price, a valuation gap that places the next earnings report at the center of the stock's near-term test.

Analyst fair value was lowered from BRL 10.50 to BRL 9.50 in an update dated October 1, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. The lower valuation reference contrasts with the stronger quarterly profit trend and leaves profitability, rather than revenue growth alone, as the key debate.

Guararapes stock trades above BRL 8

Guararapes stock closed at BRL 8.61 on B3 on October 5, 2026, with a market capitalization of BRL 4.3 billion on that date. Yahoo Finance lists November 4, 2026 as the next earnings date, giving the profit and margin figures a defined upcoming checkpoint.
