- Helbor stock was last at BRL 2.60 on B3 on October 13, 2026 at 9:31 p.m. BRT.

Helbor (ISIN BRHBORACNOR3) became the target of a BRL 2.52-per-share control offer from HBR Realty on October 5, 2026, according to Atlas Publico. The proposal uses a 0.81553398-for-one share exchange and sets an auction for October 28, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. BRT.
Offer terms set a control test
The offer seeks control of Helbor and cancellation of its public-company registration, which would remove the developer from the Novo Mercado segment of B3. Payment is structured in HBR shares rather than cash, while completion requires HBR to obtain control and receive approval from holders of more than two-thirds of the eligible free-float shares, Atlas Publico reported on October 5, 2026.
Three dates frame the offer
On October 5, 2026, HBR Realty launched the OPA at BRL 2.52 per Helbor share. On October 6, 2026, the definitive notice and valuation materials were scheduled for publication, while the auction date was set for October 28, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. BRT. Helbor's investor-relations page also lists the October 28 auction in the electronic B3 trading system, Helbor states.
Weak second-quarter profit adds pressure
The operating backdrop is weaker than the offer mechanics alone suggest. Helbor recorded BRL 583,000 of net income in the second quarter of 2026, compared with BRL 1.64 million in the second quarter of 2025, according to Valor Economico. The year-over-year decline gives shareholders a concrete operating counterweight as they assess an all-share exit proposal.
Last B3 quote before the auction
Helbor was last at BRL 2.60 on B3 on October 13, 2026 at 9:31 p.m. BRT. The same market snapshot showed a 52-week range of BRL 1.65 to BRL 4.29 and market capitalization of BRL 345.0 million as of October 13, 2026.
