PETROBRAS - PETROLEO BRASILEIRO SA current report, Q3 FY2026

Business context and reporting period

Petrobras filed this Form 6-K on September 30, 2026, reporting receipt of installments under Brazil’s gasoline and diesel economic subvention programs. This is a payment notice, not a quarterly financial report.

Key financial information

  • R$423.7 million for gasoline sales from June 16–30 under Provisional Measure No. 1,358.
  • R$601.5 million for diesel sales from June 16–30 under Provisional Measure No. 1,358.
  • R$0.6 million in supplemental gasoline subsidy for sales from August 1–15 under Provisional Measure No. 1,359.
  • Petrobras reported cumulative receipts of approximately R$13.3 billion under the diesel, gasoline, and LPG subsidy programs.

The filing does not provide revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity metrics, nor does it clarify how these receipts are presented in the company’s financial statements.

Changes versus prior period

The filing gives no comparable prior-period payment figures, so a period-over-period change cannot be determined.

Outlook, risks, and unusual items

The reported installments are government subsidy payments. Petrobras provides no specific outlook or discussion of related contingencies in this notice. Its standard caution states that forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and that actual results may differ from expectations.

Facts investors should verify

  • Whether the reported installments have been recognized in Petrobras’s accounts and the timing of recognition.
  • The remaining amounts, eligibility periods, and payment status under the subsidy programs.
  • The composition and reconciliation of the approximately R$13.3 billion cumulative total.
