Direct peers

• Cury Construtora: Brazilian residential developer with a strong MCMV popular housing focus, particularly in São Paulo. Comparable to Hima's MCMV and popular housing exposure in the affordable segment.
• Trisul: Brazilian residential real estate developer operating across price segments. Overlaps with Hima's multi-tier residential strategy from popular to mid-to-high-end housing.
• MRV Engenharia: One of Brazil's largest residential developers and a major MCMV participant, with national operations including the Northeast. Most directly comparable to Hima on the popular housing and residential development thesis.
• Atlantica Hotels: Brazilian hotel operator and asset manager with a multi-brand portfolio across economy to upscale segments. Direct peer to Hima's hotel operations spanning Supereconômico, Econômico, and Upscale categories.
• Even Construtora: Brazilian residential and commercial developer with a multi-tier product strategy. Comparable to Hima on the multi-segment real estate development approach, though Even's footprint is concentrated in São Paulo.
• JHSF Participações: Brazilian luxury real estate and hospitality operator combining high-end residential, hotels, and commercial malls. Closest analog to Hima's diversified upscale-hotel plus premium real estate plus commercial retail model.
• Cyrela Brazil Realty: Major Brazilian residential and commercial developer with multi-region operations. Comparable to Hima on the diversified residential and commercial real estate development side, though at a much larger scale.
• Eztec Empreendimentos: Brazilian real estate developer active in residential, commercial, and land development across multiple regions. Comparable to Hima on the mixed residential-commercial and land development (loteamentos) strategy.

Broad incumbents
