Itaúsa Boosts Profits By 22%, Plans R$1.4 Billion Shareholder Payout
(MENAFN- The Rio Times) Itaúsa, one of Brazil's largest investment holding companies, holds significant stakes in key sectors like finance, energy, and industrials.
This company plays a crucial role in Brazil's economic landscape. The firm recorded a recurring net profit of R$3.63 billion ($660 million) in Q2 2024.
This result marks a 22.4% increase compared to the same period in 2023. The company recently released its financial statement detailing this performance.
Strong portfolio performance, particularly from Itaú Unibanco , drove this profit growth. A strategic approach to debt management also contributed significantly.
The company's Return on Equity (ROE) reached 17.7% this quarter. This figure represents an increase of 1.9 percentage points year-over-year.
Additionally, total assets grew by 4.4%, reaching R$92.27 billion ($16.78 billion).
Meanwhile, net indebtedness saw a significant reduction, falling 70.1% to R$833 million ($151.5 million).
In a move to reward shareholders, Itaúsa announced a distribution of R$1.4 billion ($254.5 million) in interest on equity.
This payout is scheduled for August 30. The sum includes R$830 million ($150.9 million) declared in June. Additionally, an extra R$615 million ($111.8 million) was declared in March.
Itaúsa took further financial steps in July by refinancing its third issuance of debentures. The company issued a seventh debenture, totaling R$1.3 billion ($236.4 million).
This strategy aims to lower the average debt cost and extend maturity. It also eliminates obligations maturing before 2028.
