Os They registered a loss of R $ 4.37 billion in the first half of 2025, said the state company on Friday (5). The result represents an increase of 222% (triple) compared to the loss of R $ 1.35 billion recorded in the same period of the previous year. In the second quarter, the loss reached R $ 2.64 billion – an increase of almost five times compared to the break of R $ 553 million from the same period of 2024. In the first half, the company saw its net revenue drop from R $ 9.28 billion in 2024 to R $ 8.18 billion in 2025. At the same time, general and administrative expenses jumped from R $ 1.2 billion to R $ 3.4 billion, while Financial expenses increased from R $ 3.09 million to R $ 673 million, in the same comparison.

Product costs sold and services provided rose from R $ 7.8 billion to R $ 7.9 billion. In the disclosure of the balance, the company stated that “faces financial restrictions resulting from external conjunctural factors that directly impacted revenue generation.” “Among the main reasons, the significant retraction of the international segment is highlighted, due to relevant regulatory changes in purchasing imported products, which caused the volume of posts and the increase in competition, resulting in reducing revenues linked to this segment,” says the company, referring indirectly at the blouses rate, implemented by the Lula government.

The company also says it has implemented a contingency plan, aiming to seek economic rebalancing. “The actions prioritize the increase of revenues, through the diversification of services and the expansion of commercial performance, as well as the optimization and rationalization of expenses and the reduction of operating costs, preserving the universalization of services and ensuring productivity gains and financial sustainability,” the company said. The post office also cite the implementation of their own market place, with the entry into the e-commerce segment, and the authorization of a R $ 4 billion credit line with Novo Development Bank (NDB), Banco dos BRICS, to invest in modernization, logistics operations and process automation.

In an interview with Estadão, in mid -July, Minister of Management and Innovation in Public Services, Esther Dweck, recognized the state’s financial problems and said the solution to reversing the picture is cost cuts and revenue increased. “It has to cut costs on one side and look for the other. This is the solution to the Post Office, and in an industry that is undergoing transformation,” said Dweck. She stated that the Post Office lost a monopoly of deliveries in the country, while remained with the obligation to ensure providing services throughout the national territory, including remote and little profitable areas.

In an attempt to circumvent the crisis, the company pledged to the economic team saving R $ 1.5 billion in 2025. One of the hopes of cutting spending is the voluntary shutdown plan, with which the company predicts saving R $ 1 billion per year. The company’s president, Fabiano Silva dos Santos, delivered resignation in early July, but remains in office. THE He asked him to continue, until he found a substitute, which has not yet happened, in an unprecedented situation for the company.

Since 2022, the post office has been damage, but the negative result has been getting worse. That year, the company closed in the red at R $ 767 million, with a small reduction to R $ 596 million in 2023. By 2024, however, the break reached R $ 2.59 billion and now, in the first semester, the negative number jump to 4.36 billion.
