Today with us, we have Mr. Fernando Perez, Chief Executive Officer; and Mr. Anderson Hiraoka, CFO and Investor Relations Officer of the company. I'm Victor Miranda, Investor Relations Specialist. We inform that the recording of this event will be available on the company's IR website. As usual, we'll start with the presentation by the executives and then move on to Q&A session. [Operator Instructions] And I'd like to turn the floor over to Mr. Fernando Perez, who will start the presentation. Please, Mr. Perez.
Fernando Perez
ExecutivesGood morning, everyone. Once again, we're here gathered to show our accountability. We're talking about the fourth quarter of 2025 and also the full year of 2025. Great. So our agenda will be talking about the strategy, and then our CFO will be talking about our operating performance and financial economic performance as well. A summary of our strategy, and I'll explain a bit more about the deal negotiation for sale of an equity stake in Jardim das Perdizes. It's important to explain about, where we're at, also the continuity of launches in Jardim das Perdizes. We'll talk about landmark, the focus on commercial strategy, control of our administrative expenses, which we take very strictly, as you well know, and the profitability of the operation. Okay. So BTG, there is here an important point where we started the negotiation with Cyrela that it didn't go all the way through because we wanted to sell quota of SP and they wanted to buy land. And for that reason, the operation wasn't feasible to us. And from then on, many players knocked on our door to try a negotiation with us. And BTG carried out the most interesting proposal. And now at the end of the year, January, we've been negotiating with them, and we're selling half of Tecnisa's stake, which is BRL 52.50 and we have BRL 1 billion as the valuation. So we're talking about BRL 261 million. With that in mind, we have 26% equity stake and another 5%, I would say. So we're talking about -- we have this flow of carry on with 32% of Jardim das Perdizes. This is very appealing. We have to have BTG as a partner is very interesting, and this money will be coming in, and we will have half of our corporate debt used with that and will help us with the next cycle. I would like to talk a bit about NAARA. NAARA is the investment of the senior living, which is something new coming to Brazil. As always, we are one of the forerunners in that area. NAARA is a business led by Joseph Nigri, and we have 10% stake. We have a PSV of BRL 111 million. We launched in November 2025. We have 16 units from 94 to 102 square meters and 16 units from 140 to 145 square meters. This is in the neighborhood Higienópolis. And as you well can tell, it is a great place to live for residents with great services. It has been very successful, and we're already working on our next NAARA in the Pinheiros region, and we want to have a greater stake over 10% in Vert. Vert is the next launch, which we'll have here in Jardim das Perdizes. And it is geared to wellness, as you can tell, some of the images we have here. And here, the summary, the PSV of around BRL 100 million. Our stake is 52.5% because we're talking about December once we do close with BTG, definitely, there are still some points to be resolved, especially also of CADE. And that way, things might change, but it is a great one where we have a PSV that is high. And we can see here that [ Sao Paulo ] generated 5 units of 121 square meters, 96 of 178, another 96 of 151 and 7 of 45, and we still have 3 stores in this building. We have tennis courts. And for the land bank, we still have of around BRL 4.7 billion, where we have BRL 2.6 billion for Tecnisa's share. And what we should highlight is that we already have approved projects of BRL 1.8 billion. And when it comes to gross sales for the quarter, it reached BRL 188 million at a speed of 17% for sales, which is quite good. If we talk about the operational efficiency, we have been reducing administrative expenses, where we reduced 19%, reaching BRL 52 million, as you can tell by the columns on the side. When it comes to profitability, we had a backlog gross profit of BRL 169 million and a backlog gross margin of 42%, increasing 4% compared to the same period in the previous year. I should highlight that 42% is the total for Jardim das Perdizes, as you can tell on the graph on the left, the margin is much higher, which is 46%, and we will close now with other projects to be delivered. So from now on, this margin of 46% will have the trend to grow. And still, I mean, talking about the backlog gross margin for Jardim das Perdizes is growing, and it should still grow a bit for the next launches. And now that was my part. And I'd like Anderson, our CFO, now to tell us about the operating performance, economic and financial.
Anderson Hiraoka
ExecutivesThank you, Fernando. Good morning, everyone. So talking about the operating performance, we have here the Tecnisa's share where you can see BRL 84 million for gross sales and BRL 76 million for net contracted sales. The SOS was 14%, which is quite interesting with an increase of 0.4% compared to the previous quarter. For the next slide now, we can see the inventory at the end of the quarter, BRL 473 million for Tecnisa, where only 14% of the concluded units and for the most part in the -- in Sao Paulo at 98%. Here, the delivery for the quarter, we have Unik Residences with a PSV of BRL 221 million, a 73% stake of Tecnisa and the total units nearly 100 or 300, excuse me, great project, beautiful and has generated cash for the fourth quarter, which is a highlight. And also, we had the delivery of Bosque Pitangueiras in October with PSV of BRL 218 million, Tecnisa's stake, 52.5%, 150 units. And going to the financial and economic performance in terms of revenue, we reached BRL 162 million in the fourth quarter and for the year, BRL 534 million, -- and we can see that the revenue related to the project of Jardim das Perdizes are proportionately greater. And the concluded ones, the [ AI ] trend is to have the reduction of this stake. And here, we have the adjusted gross profit, which was up BRL 147 million, which is quite interesting, where you can see a 25%. So we're talking about 11% when it comes to adjusted gross profit. So from 17% to 28% in 2025. And for the next slide, we present to you the receivable schedules compared to the debt maturity. When we think about the next years, we're talking about BRL 392 million compared to BRL 363 million of debt. So we have more than what's necessary other than our cash. And now we have in December 2025, the 17 debenture issuance, which was carried out, which is the amount of BRL 178 million maturing in 2031 and debt maturing for the first quarter of 2025. In that way, we have an average where we will be 3 years for the maturity time. So this was a restructuring of debt that will be -- one that will be very important for us to carry on with our business plan. And the profit was a loss here of BRL 101 million. And we have here, as Fernando showed, BRL 169 million by the end of 2025 and the adjusted margin here shows 42%. And lastly, we have here the cash. We have BRL 350 million for the end of the year, where we have an amortization for the start of 2026 of BRL 151 million of corporate debt, as I have already mentioned. And we have the equity there that closed at BRL 291 million for the fourth quarter. And from the graphs on the right, you can see the net debt, which closed at BRL 563 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a reduction compared to the third quarter -- so BRL 43 million was the cash with the contribution of the concluded units. With that, I close our presentation, and I'm available for Q&A.
