The Day of Staying of 'Júnior da Amil'

José Seripieri Filho, also known as "Júnior da Amil", announced that negotiations to sell Amil, a health insurance company, have ended without a deal. The company, which is the third largest operator of supplementary health in Brazil, had been in talks with a consortium formed by Advent and Bain for five months, with a proposed equity value of R$ 20 billion.

Despite the failed negotiations, Amil remains open to accepting a minority partner. The company's current management, led by Júnior, has implemented significant changes, including cost-cutting measures and a more aggressive sales strategy, resulting in a turnaround from a cash consumption of R$ 1.4 billion in 2023 to an estimated R$ 2.6 billion in cash generation this year.
