Deutsche Bank stock was trading at EUR 30.94 at Lang & Schwarz on October 1, 2026, down 2.43 percent from the prior close of EUR 31.71. The bank completed its EUR 500.00 million share buyback on September 28, 2026, according to Deutsche Bank.

Buyback reaches 15.10 million shares

Between August 25 and September 25, 2026, Deutsche Bank repurchased 15.10 million shares at a volume-weighted average price of EUR 33.19. The purchases represented 0.80 percent of the bank's share capital, and total 2026 buybacks reached EUR 1.50 billion, according to the September 28 release.

The bank also targets a 60.00 percent payout ratio for fiscal year 2026 and later years. Additional distributions depend on the CET1 capital ratio remaining above 14.00 percent, making capital returns a central part of the shareholder case.

Second-quarter revenue rises 9.00 percent

Deutsche Bank reported second-quarter 2026 net revenues of EUR 8.48 billion, up 9.00 percent from the second quarter of 2025. Pretax profit increased 11.00 percent to EUR 2.68 billion, while profit after tax reached EUR 1.91 billion, according to Nadir Alpha.

The first-half 2026 figures give the buyback a stronger earnings foundation than the prior-year comparison. The bank's next test is scheduled for October 28, 2026, when it plans to publish its report for the period ended September 30, 2026, according to Deutsche Bank Investor Relations.

Stock remains below its yearly high
