Antipodes Global Fund Antipodes Partners Limited | “Sendas Distribuidora finished lower, reversing the positive momentum seen over CY25, amid broader weakness in the Brazilian consumer sector against a backdrop of higher interest rates. Rate-sensitive stocks were impacted as the market began to price in a delay in rate cuts from January to March 2026. We view the correction as short-term and took the opportunity to increase the position size given the attractive risk-reward at current levels. BSD Analysis: Sendas Distribuidora, operating as Assaí Atacadista, enters 2026 with a sharpened focus on deleveraging and operational efficiency following a multi-year period of aggressive store expansion. The company's financial strategy for 2026 is bolstered by a significant reduction in capital expenditures, which are planned to drop to roughly 700 million reais from prior peaks to prioritize high-return organic growth. Management is increasingly leveraging digital channels and private-label initiatives to protect margins as consumer purchasing power remains under pressure in the Brazilian market. While high interest rates have historically weighed on the bottom line, the firm's successful transition toward a more favorable B2C sales mix is helping to stabilize EBITDA. With no major debt maturities expected in the immediate term, Sendas is well-positioned to improve its cash flow profile. For investors, the stock offers a defensive play on the resilient cash-and-carry sector, provided the company continues to execute its cost-control mandates.” | BULL | Q4 2025 Dec 31, 2025 | View Pitch |
