Vamos stock (ISIN BRVAMOACNOR7) was last at BRL 4.74 on B3 on October 2, 2026, up 5.33 percent on the session. The immediate company catalyst was Simpar's purchase of 57.8 million Vamos shares, equal to 4.73 percent of the common stock, as Valor Economico reported on October 2, 2026.

Simpar raises direct ownership

The transaction involved the settlement of total return swaps and a matching cash purchase. Simpar's direct position reached 682.9 million Vamos common shares, or 55.9 percent of the company, while financial derivative positions represented another 3.82 percent, according to Valor Economico on October 2, 2026.

The filing described the move as a technical restructuring of derivative positions rather than a change in control or management. That distinction matters for shareholders because the direct stake increased even as Simpar's overall economic exposure to the business was described as unchanged.

Revenue growth meets lower leverage

Vamos reported BRL 1.56 billion in net revenue for the second quarter of 2026, 10.8 percent above the second quarter of 2025. Net income reached BRL 101.1 million, an 8.9 percent year-over-year increase, while EBITDAR was BRL 971.5 million, up 8.4 percent, TraderNews reported from the company's second-quarter release published on August 12, 2026.

Net debt to EBITDA fell from 3.39x to 3.00x in the same period, while fleet occupancy stood at 89 percent in June 2026. The operating improvement is therefore paired with a balance-sheet checkpoint: financial expenses were BRL 547.4 million in the quarter, making leverage and occupancy central measures for the next report.

Analysts see a wider target range

The published analyst consensus was Outperform with 13 analysts, an average target of BRL 4.808, a high target of BRL 7.000 and a low target of BRL 3.500, according to MarketScreener. The range shows a broad spread of expectations rather than a uniform view on the truck-rental operator.

TraderNews listed November 12, 2026, for the publication of third-quarter results. That report should provide the next dated test of the 3.00x leverage level, fleet occupancy and the 2026 operating trajectory.

Vamos stock holds near yearly high

Vamos stock was last at BRL 4.74 on B3 on October 2, 2026. The 52-week range was BRL 2.46 to BRL 4.94, placing the share price BRL 0.20 below the upper end of that range, while market capitalization was BRL 5.5 billion as of October 1, 2026.
