Azul SA ( (AZULQ) ) has shared an update.

On December 22, 2025, Azul S.A.’s board of directors approved the launch of a primary public offering of newly issued common and preferred shares in Brazil, conducted under the automatic registration procedure of the Brazilian securities regulator. The capital increase is a core component of Azul’s ongoing Chapter 11 restructuring plan in the United States, designed to convert portions of the company’s indebtedness, including senior secured notes, into equity under court-approved terms. Existing shareholders in Brazil will receive priority subscription rights on a pro rata basis, with any remaining shares potentially allocated to professional investors, while a simultaneous private placement of shares in the form of ADRs and warrants will be made abroad exclusively to certain creditor entities for the benefit of noteholders. Holders of Azul’s ADRs will not be able to participate via ADRs and may only invest directly in Brazilian-listed shares if they qualify as professional investors, underscoring a structure that prioritizes debt equitization and regulatory compliance over broad retail or U.S. public market access, with material implications for dilution, creditor recovery and the company’s post-restructuring capital structure.

The most recent analyst rating on (AZULQ) stock is a Hold with a $0.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Azul SA stock, see the AZULQ Stock Forecast page.
