JBS N.V. (JBS) disclosed that its wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary JBS S.A. entered into a Brazilian law-governed Association Agreement with Viva Holding Ltda. The agreement also involves Vanz Holding Ltda. and Viposa Participações Ltda. as Viva shareholders, plus Viva S.A. and JBS Couros Brasil Ltda. as intervening parties.
The agreement sets the terms under which, after satisfaction of specified conditions precedent, the parties plan to combine their leather-related production, processing and commercialization assets and activities into a company to be named “JBS Viva” (the “Transaction”). Completion remains subject to customary conditions, and JBS states there is no guarantee the Transaction will be consummated in a timely manner or at all.
JBS N.V. (JBS) announced that on August 18, 2026 it submitted a non-binding proposal to Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (PPC) to acquire all PPC common shares not already owned by JBS or its affiliates. The proposal offers a fixed exchange ratio of 2.086 JBS Class A common shares per PPC share, referencing August 18, 2026 closing prices of $13.66 for JBS and $28.49 for PPC. JBS currently owns approximately 82% of PPC’s common stock and states it is not interested in selling its existing stake or supporting any alternative change-of-control transaction for PPC.
The potential transaction would require approval by a special committee of independent and disinterested PPC directors, advised by independent legal and financial advisors, and is expected to be conditioned on approval by a majority of votes cast by unaffiliated PPC shareholders, along with customary closing conditions. JBS does not expect to seek approval from its own shareholders. If completed, PPC shares would be delisted from Nasdaq and deregistered. JBS emphasizes that no binding obligation exists unless definitive agreements are executed and that there is no guarantee a transaction will be completed.
