Celesc approved BRL 78.60 million in interest on equity on September 24, 2026, creating an immediate ex-interest date for Celesc stock. According to Finance News, preferred shareholders are due BRL 2.12 per share and ordinary shareholders BRL 1.92 per share, while trading without the entitlement begins on October 1, 2026.

What the payout means

The payment will be split into two equal installments. The first BRL 39.32 million installment is scheduled by June 30, 2027, and the second BRL 39.32 million installment by December 30, 2027, according to Finance News. The company said the exact payment dates will be decided by its board or shareholders meeting.

The key market distinction is timing: the September 30, 2026 position date determines eligibility, while October 1, 2026 marks the ex-interest trading date. That separation matters because the announced amount is a corporate distribution rather than a change to operating guidance.

Second-quarter figures add context

Celesc reported consolidated revenue of BRL 2,999.60 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with BRL 2,899.50 million in the second quarter of 2025. Consolidated net income attributable to shareholders reached BRL 296.10 million, versus BRL 148.50 million in the year-earlier quarter, according to Valor.

The investor-relations site lists the second-quarter 2026 interim report, earnings release and results presentation among the company materials. Those documents place the latest reported operating period in the first half of 2026 and give the payout announcement a recent financial backdrop, according to Celesc.

Stock remains near yearly high

Celesc stock was BRL 159.99 on B3 on September 25, 2026, with a prior close of BRL 159.99. The same quotation page shows a 52-week range of BRL 99.87 to BRL 160.79 and a market capitalization of BRL 5.9 billion, placing the share near the top of its annual range.

For investors, the payout and the ex-interest date now sit alongside a second-quarter net income figure of BRL 296.10 million. The combination makes the distribution schedule and the next operating update the clearest measurable reference points for Celesc stock.
