Frequently Asked Questions

Why hold JBS JBS ADR instead of local B3 JBSS3 shares?

Buying directly on Brazil’s B3 exchange means opening a local brokerage account, converting currency and dealing with Brazilian tax paperwork. ADRs remove that friction: they settle in dollars, follow US market hours, and report in formats foreign investors already understand.

The trade-off is that an ADR’s price reflects two moving parts: (1) the underlying share price, quoted in reais on the B3, and (2) the USD/BRL exchange rate. Because of that second part, a rising company can still deliver a flat, or even negative, dollar return if the real weakens against the dollar. The same applies to ETFs: funds such as EWZ, EWZS and FLBR bundle dozens of these companies into a single ticker for instant diversification, but their dollar value still moves with the real.

Where is JBS listed?

JBS trades on 2 exchanges. The line quoted on this page is NYSE in the United States (JBS, US dollars). It also trades on B3 (São Paulo) in Brazil (JBSS3, Brazilian reais).

On how many exchanges does JBS trade?

2. NYSE — JBS (USD) · B3 (São Paulo) — JBSS3 (BRL). Prices shown on this page are the NYSE line, JBS.

What is JBS' primary listing?

JBS' primary listing is on the B3 in Brazil, where the shares trade as JBSS3 in reais — the company's home market. The NYSE line quoted on this page is an ADR over those same shares: it gives you the asset in US dollars, on US market hours, without opening a Brazilian brokerage account or trading in reais.

What is the difference between JBS and JBSS3?

They are the same company and, economically, the same asset. JBSS3 is the original Brazilian share, listed on the B3 and quoted in reais. JBS is an American Depositary Receipt over that share, listed on the NYSE and quoted in US dollars — a wrapper whose purpose is to give foreign investors access to the Brazilian asset without opening an account in Brazil. The JBS price therefore tracks two things: JBSS3 in reais, and the USD/BRL exchange rate.

Does JBS have publicly listed subsidiaries?

Yes. JBS controls one publicly listed company: Pilgrim's Pride Corporation, listed on NASDAQ as PPC.

Each of those is a separate security, with its own share price, its own shareholders and its own results. Holding JBS gives you indirect exposure through JBS' stake rather than a direct position, so parent and subsidiary can move in opposite directions on the same day. To hold it directly you would buy its own ticker.

How can I buy JBS stock in the United States?

JBS is listed on the NYSE under JBS, priced in US dollars. Any US brokerage offering NYSE-listed securities can trade it, with no foreign-account paperwork and no currency conversion.
