StoneCo has reached a definitive agreement for Totvs to acquire its Linx unit in a deal valued at 3.05 billion reais ($547.90 million). This divestiture is a key step in StoneCo's strategic refocus on its core financial services business for Brazilian micro, small, and medium-sized businesses.

In addition to the Linx sale, StoneCo also completed the divestiture of SimplesVet to PetLove for BRL 140 million plus net cash in July 2025. These combined software asset sales unlock over BRL 4 billion in value, representing approximately 25% of StoneCo's market capitalization.

The divested software assets accounted for only about 8% of revenues and 5% of the consolidated bottom line for the first half of 2025. This strategic move allows StoneCo to concentrate resources on its highest-growth, most profitable segments within financial services, enhancing capital efficiency and shareholder value.
