Profit grows outside Russia

Profit excluding Russia increased 25.00 percent year over year to EUR 708.0 million in the first half of 2026, according to Börsen-Kurier. The same period brought a 6.00 percent increase in net interest income to EUR 2.19 billion and a 10.00 percent rise in net fee income to EUR 1.07 billion.

The figures show why the bank's earnings outside Russia are central to the valuation. The bank also reported a common equity tier 1 ratio of 15.50 percent excluding Russia in the first half of 2026, while its expected 2026 loan growth excluding Russia was 7.00 percent.

Stock remains below its yearly high

The Lang & Schwarz price stood 14.91 percent below the 52-week high of EUR 66.75 and 97.09 percent above the 52-week low of EUR 28.84 on October 14, 2026. Trading volume at the Vienna listing was 43,999 shares at 2:01 p.m. CEST, against an average volume of 321,932 shares.

For investors, the distance to the annual high is more important than the small intraday move. The current price also remains below the EUR 59.00 Barclays target, although the target is 3.87 percent above the Lang & Schwarz price.
