a rebound in the key commodities that drive earnings (notably sugar and grains) Lucas Ferreira AC
and an increasingly cautious setup for some others (e.g., ethanol and urea), sector (55-11) 4950-3629
consensus has generally continued to drift lower. Into 2Q, we expect SLC to post lucas.x.ferreira@jpmorgan.com
a relatively solid print on a sequentially better mix, while TTEN likely comes in Banco J.P. Morgan S.A.
below expectations on softer industry margins (arguably partially reflected in the Larissa Perez

larissa.perez@jpmchase.com
should remain constrained by commodity-driven headwinds, though we see Adeco Banco J.P. Morgan S.A.
better positioned than SMTO this quarter given its exposure to stronger urea Froylan Mendez
pricing. For FY26, we are making modest downward revisions across the board (52-55) 5540-9482
except for SLC, where the main changes are pushed into 2027. Net-net, we remain froylan.mendez@jpmchase.com

and SMTO, and Underweight on Adecoagro.
• 3tentos should post a materially weaker-than-expected quarter, primarily
driven by softer industry margins.
