BRASKEM PRF'A'

Braskem reported Q2/2026 adjusted earnings of $1.08 per share and revenue of $4.31bn, both below analysts' estimates ($1.27 and $4.67bn), prompting a sharp drop in the stock. Recurring EBITDA rose to $1.043bn (margin 24%), driven mainly by Brazil, which showed strong quarter-on-quarter growth. Management described the quarter as a tactical gain from higher petrochemical spreads, warned of a tougher second half of the year, and is advancing financial restructuring and cost discipline. Braskem expects further CapEx outflows, remains debt-burdened, and analysts still see challenges for 2026, including an expected full-year loss. » Altro su de.investing.com
