Localiza stock is anchored by BRL 12.33 billion in Q2 2026 revenue and BRL 1.00 billion in earnings, according to Yahoo Finance. Revenue stood above BRL 10.73 billion in the year-earlier quarter, while GAAP earnings per share reached BRL 0.91 against a BRL 0.90 estimate, a 1.75 percent positive surprise.

Q2 revenue reaches BRL 12.33 billion

The figures give Localiza a clear growth comparison in its latest reported quarter. Yahoo Finance lists an 8.14 percent profit margin for Q2 2026, alongside revenue growth from the prior-year base and actual EPS above the estimate.

The earnings mix is important because fleet expansion can lift revenue while also increasing depreciation, financing needs and operating costs. Localiza's Q2 earnings therefore offer a stronger operating signal than revenue alone, with the EPS result providing the clearest quantified comparison in the report.

Fitch sees BRL 50.0 billion in 2026 revenue

Valor Economico reported on September 22, 2026, that Fitch had reaffirmed Localiza's long-term foreign and local currency ratings at BB+ after a review on September 21, 2026. The outlook is stable, while the national scale rating remains AAA(bra).

Fitch projects BRL 50.0 billion of net revenue and BRL 15.0 billion of EBITDA for 2026, followed by BRL 54.0 billion of revenue and BRL 17.0 billion of EBITDA in 2027. The forecast puts fleet renewal and pricing discipline at the center of the credit story, especially because Fitch also links faster deleveraging to positive free cash flow.
