Airport sale changes financial profile
The sale of Motiva's airport platform closed on September 1 at an enterprise value of 12.2 billion Brazilian real and generated 5.2 billion Brazilian real in equity proceeds. The transaction simplified the portfolio and supported debt reduction.
Net debt to adjusted EBITDA improved to 3.2 times from 3.6 times. Motiva's consolidated net income included 2.674 billion Brazilian real in non-recurring effects from the airport sale, while adjusted net income reached 750 million Brazilian real.
Investment remains the next test
Management expects capital expenditure to accelerate in the fourth quarter. Full-year execution is forecast below the prior-year level because of licensing and approvals from granting authorities. The 2027 capital program remains under review, with spending assessed according to its flexibility and concession commitments.
Motiva operates roads and rail services across Brazil, connecting passengers and freight through mobility infrastructure. The company describes its business and investor materials on its investor relations website.
