Insights

Lower 2026 capex with steady expansion signals a deleveraging tilt.

Assaí introduces a 2026 investment outlook of R$ 700 million (cash view) while keeping its plan to open 10 stores. For 2025, it reiterates cash-basis investments of R$ 1.0–1.2 billion and 10 store openings. The narrative emphasizes financial discipline and reducing leverage.

Lower planned 2026 spending versus 2025 suggests tighter capital allocation while preserving measured growth. Actual outcomes depend on macro conditions and the company’s periodic revisions to assumptions.
