Recommendation: BUY · Rating 7.6/10
RZAT11 acquires properties from cash-strapped companies (factories, warehouses, gas stations) and leases them back via long-term contracts adjusted for inflation plus roughly IPCA+10.2% per year. Manager Riza Asset has a proven track record of early buybacks at a profit for unitholders. In June, the fund debuted a 9th property (Visolux in Maringá-PR, at IPCA+13.62%), bringing the portfolio to 9 properties with an 86% occupancy rate.
The distribution of R$ 1.70/month was inflated by non-recurring sales gains—and that cycle has ended. In June, cash earnings were negative (R$ -0.34/unit) because the R$ 6.17M performance fee (the first of 2026) was charged all at once; even so, the fund paid R$ 1.70 by drawing down reserves, causing accumulated retained earnings to drop from R$ 2.52 to R$ 0.48/unit. The manager itself projects a normalized distribution of R$ 1.05–1.15/unit starting in the second half of the year (August already paid R$ 1.05). The unit trades at ~R$ 85 with net assets of R$ 102—a P/BV of 0.84 (you pay R$ 84 for every R$ 100 of net assets), representing a true discount.
Core risk: Cervejaria Cidade Imperial concentrates a large share of the properties, carries no credit rating, and offers low collateral; furthermore, the semiannual performance fee, now proven to be heavy, erodes retained earnings. Worth considering if you want long-term IPCA+ income and accept asset concentration and volatile distributions; stay away if you want a diversified fund and stable income. Rating: 7.6 — BUY.
RZAT11 is a bet on sale-leaseback as an asset class: the fund acquires properties from companies looking to free up capital, at discounts of up to 50% to market value, and leases them back to the same tenant at an IPCA+9-14% rate. The combination of acquisition discount + real inflation indexation + buyback option is what sets the fund apart from conventional FIIs.
The thesis operates on three fronts: (1) High current income — 12.5% dividend yield with 100% IPCA indexation; (2) Asset protection — in the event of default, the fund repossesses the property and can sell it at market value, pocketing the historical discount; (3) Extraordinary buyback gains — when a tenant repurchases a property ahead of schedule, they pay a 10-20% penalty on the acquisition price, generating extraordinary distributions to unitholders. This was clearly demonstrated in Feb/2026 with the Aliança termination.
Cervejaria Cidade Imperial accounts for a substantial portion of the real estate assets, without a credit rating and backed by only R$ 18M in collateral. Any adverse event (financial distress, renegotiation) will disproportionately impact the fund.
The first performance fee of 2026 (R$ 6.17M, 20% above IPCA+5% p.a.) was charged in Jun/26, pushing cash earnings down to R$ -0.34/unit and slashing accumulated retained earnings from R$ 2.52 to R$ 0.48/unit in a single month—demonstrating the tangible weight of this cost.
The R$ 1.70 DPU had been inflated by asset sales (Aliança Agrícola, Rede Monte Carlo). With the cycle concluded and reserves nearly depleted (R$ 0.48/unit), the manager normalized the distribution to R$ 1.05–1.15/unit—a cut already implemented in Aug/26 (R$ 1.05). Investors who anchored their income expectations to R$ 1.70 must recalibrate their cash flow.
The contract with Splice Indústria (Votorantim-SP) has a remaining term of only 2 years. If Splice neither exercises the buyback option nor renews, the fund will need to sell or re-lease the asset, carrying the risk of a vacancy period and/or a discount.
With 100% of contracts indexed to the IPCA, months with low (or negative) inflation reduce distributable earnings. With reserves at a minimum (R$ 0.48/unit), the ability to smooth out drops has declined significantly.
The Cidade Imperial property (the portfolio's largest) holds only an R$ 18M security deposit (a fraction of its value). Visolux, the most recent addition, has collateral of R$ 856k on a R$ 20M purchase. In the event of prolonged delinquency, the fund depends on repossessing the property.
Our current reading of RZAT11 is BUY, with a score of 7.6/10. This score comes neither from the manager nor the administrator: it is Rico aos Poucos' editorial assessment, built from the documents the fund files with the CVM. Below is what supports it — and what argues against it.
Leads the high-quality brick-and-mortar bucket (n=2). RZAT11 combines an acquisition discount of ~62% via sale-leaseback, a 15.6% dividend yield, and a P/BV of 0.90—offering a real asset margin of safety that PLAG11 does not (P/BV of 0.94, right at book value). Contracts with an average rate of IPCA+10% p.a., 100% occupancy, and a tenant buyback option reinforce cash flow protection. A broader unitholder base (34k vs. 14k) ensures superior liquidity. Risks preventing an even higher rating include: concentration in Cidade Imperial (~37% of properties), Splice Indústria maturing in ~2 years, a performance fee that erodes retained earnings, and a temporarily inflated DPU from completed sales.
R$ 13.29M (R$ 3.14/unit) recognized but not booked to cash due to "recovery uncertainty." Could turn into a gain or zero.
60% of real estate NAV concentrated in a regional brewery without a credit rating from an agency. A default would be catastrophic.
In June and December of each year, ~R$ 1–2M goes to Riza, wiping out surpluses before they can turn into extraordinary distributions.
Book value per unit jumped from R$ 101.5 to R$ 125.9 in Mar/26 due to the accounting recognition of R$ 150M in sales receivables. If the sales fall through, book value reverts.
Comfrio and Andorinha rely on simple insurance/surety bonds; Cidade Imperial relies only on an R$ 18M deposit (3% of the property value).
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| C.Vale closes + Rio Claro closes | If both sales materialize within 2–3 months, R$ 16.4/unit in extraordinary distributions = ~16% of the current price in short-term extra return. |
| IPCA returns to 5–6% p.a. | A persistently high IPCA scenario brings sustainable DPU back to R$ 1.10–1.20 monthly. |
| Aliança recovers indemnity | The unbooked R$ 13.29M (R$ 3.14/unit) turns into cash if negotiations succeed. |
| Cidade Imperial delays rent | Since it concentrates 60% of real estate NAV, any delay or renegotiation reduces DPU by 20–30%. |
| C.Vale backs out of purchase | Aliança sits vacant for another 6–12 months until an alternative sale, losing rental income. |
| Splice neither renews nor repurchases (2028) | R$ 70M industrial property in Votorantim becomes vacant — requiring a DPU cut or a discounted sale. |
RZAT11 is an atypical brick-and-mortar fund (brick-and-mortar fund) worth understanding: a unique sale-leaseback strategy featuring 10 properties acquired at a 61% discount to market value, all leased back at an average contract rate of IPCA + 10%. The portfolio appears diversified (10 properties, 9 tenants, 6 states, 7 sectors) but concentrates ~60% of its real-estate net assets in a single tenant (Cervejaria Cidade Imperial).
In Apr/2026 the fund concluded two announced transactions: the sale of the Aliança Agrícola property to C.Vale (R$ 53M, +R$ 2.06/unit) and the buyback of the Rio Claro property by Rede Monte Carlo (R$ 16.5M, +R$ 0.34/unit). The portfolio dropped to 8 properties and management distributed R$ 1.40 (Apr) and R$ 1.70 (May), with guidance of R$ 1.65-1.75 while distributing the R$ 2.75/unit in reserved cash. This is real extra income, though non-recurring.
The recurring DPS level is R$ 0.95–1.10/month via IPCA+10% leases, which yields a recurring dividend yield of ~11–12% on R$ 97.29. In real terms, RZAT11 offers a positive spread over the Selic, Brazil's policy rate. With book value per unit normalized at R$ 104.08, the P/BV is 0.93, and the modeled fair value is R$ 108 (range R$ 100–116), representing an upside of ~11%.
