Grupo Multilaser S.A. (MLAS3) reported that, in 2026, it will book a provision for losses on receivables from Grupo Casas Bahia S.A. in the approximate amount of R$ 20 million, due to that company’s filing for court-supervised reorganization. This amount is in addition to the R$ 11 million previously provisioned by the company.
According to Multilaser, the amount corresponds only to the portion of the outstanding balance that is not covered by trade credit insurance policies and other contracted guarantee instruments. The company highlighted that the total represents 2.29% of the net accounts receivable balance, with no material impact on its equity, financial position, or results.
The company also stated that it is monitoring developments in the case and has already implemented operational, commercial, and legal measures to mitigate potential losses, including enforcing the guarantees set forth in insurance policies and other existing instruments. Based on the information available as of today, Multilaser does not expect developments that would materially affect its results for the 2026 fiscal year.
