Boliden AB announced on 27 August 2026 that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire a 64.68% stake in Nexa Resources from Votorantim S.A. for approximately $1.3 billion. NEXA is the target in this transaction. The deal covers a controlling interest, not the full company.
For current NEXA holders, the announcement concerns the change of a majority owner — Votorantim is selling its controlling stake to Boliden. Minority shareholders retain their existing shares. Short interest is negligible at under 0.5% of free float, with only around 215,000 shares sold short and a days-to-cover of under one day, so the short side has no meaningful role in this story.
