ANZ Group Holdings stock heads into results with recovery in focus

ANZ Group Holdings stock is heading into the bank's full-year results on Monday, November 9, with investors focused on earnings quality, margins and operating efficiency. The real-time quote of ANZ Group Holdings stock was 25.09 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 15:30 CET on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, 2.83 percent above the Xetra close of Monday, November 2, at 24.40 euros.

Results will test the recovery

Beinsure reported on October 17 that ANZ's unaudited fiscal third-quarter cash profit reached A$1.90 billion and that the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 12.51 percent. Excluding a New Zealand class-action provision, cash profit reached A$1.98 billion, representing 5 percent growth against the comparable first-half quarterly average, according to Beinsure.

Business and Private Banking lending advanced 4 percent in the quarter, while net interest income excluding Markets increased 2 percent. The group's net interest margin improved by one basis point to 1.54 percent, and the margin excluding Markets rose by four basis points. Operating expenses declined 3 percent after excluding the New Zealand provision.

Analyst views remain divided

Beinsure cited an average 12-month analyst target of A$36.56 from 14 analysts, with six Buy, six Hold and two Sell ratings. Citi's A$41 target and Macquarie's A$33.50 forecast illustrate the wide range of expectations for the bank's earnings recovery.

The November 9 release will give investors a fresh basis for assessing lending growth, margin resilience, productivity savings and progress with the Suncorp Bank integration. The figures will also show whether restructuring benefits are translating into stronger returns without weakening credit quality.
