## Elevator Pitch

- Petrobras is headed in a perilous direction for minority shareholders, fraught with risks of value destruction.
- Petrobras' days of high dividend payout are over.
- Lower downstream pricing will reduce margins.
- Return-dilutive capex will erode free cash flow.
- Petrobras last year was an opportunity for quick shareholder value realization. The company now is a trap as it has transformed into a long-duration equity undertaking return-dilutive capex, acting in the best interests of the government.
