Thesis Summary

The issuer's analyst-coverage table, updated August 20, 2026, shows a mixed recommendation profile led by Hold at 42.1%, versus Buy at 36.8% and Sell at 21.1%. The published 12-month ADR target averages $15.44, while the issuer's IR homepage displayed VIV at $11.29 when accessed. The valuation opportunity is supported by a substantial 2Q26 operating base—R$15.8 billion of revenue, R$6.6 billion of EBITDA, 118.8 million customers and 32.0 million FTTH homes passed—and continued 2026 shareholder distributions.

$12.5825%
