Insights

Ambev announces new cash returns per share and a board change.

Ambev S.A. is combining dividends and interest on capital to return cash to shareholders. The board approved dividends of R$0.4612 per share, split between the mandatory minimum dividend linked to fiscal year 2025 profit and additional dividends funded from the profit reserve. Payment on December 30, 2025 provides a near-term cash benefit to shareholders.

The company also approved interest on capital of R$0.2690 per share, yielding a net amount of R$0.2286 per share after tax, to be paid by December 31, 2026. This structure uses Brazilian tax-efficient distribution mechanisms, but the economic impact depends on the total shares held. On governance, the resignation of board and People Committee member Nelson José Jamel effective January 1, 2026 and the appointment of Ricardo Manuel Frangatos Pires Moreira to the People Committee represent a targeted committee refresh while leaving one board seat open until the 2026 annual meeting.
