Macquarie stock approaches November 6 results after 30% profit rise

Macquarie Group stock was last at AUD 248.77 on the ASX on October 7, 2026, down 0.50 percent from the previous close. The next half-year results are scheduled for November 6, giving the October market move a clear earnings checkpoint.

November 6 sets the next test

Macquarie's investor calendar lists the 2027 half-year result announcement for November 6, 2026, followed by an ex-dividend date of November 11 and dividend payment date of December 17. The dates place capital returns and interim earnings close together in the next reporting cycle, making the quality of income growth more important than the daily share-price move.

According to Macquarie, the group held its 2026 annual general meeting on July 23, 2026. The investor calendar therefore points to a defined sequence of results, ex-dividend and payment dates rather than an open-ended event window.

FY2026 profit sets a high base

Macquarie generated FY2026 net profit of AUD 4.85 billion, up 30 percent from the previous financial year, according to The Australian on September 22, 2026. That comparison gives the November result a demanding benchmark because the group enters the next period after a sizable year-on-year earnings increase.

Simply Wall St reports FY2026 revenue of AUD 19.7 billion, up 14 percent from FY2025, and earnings per share of AUD 12.77 versus AUD 9.79. The figures show why the upcoming half-year release will be judged against both profit momentum and the valuation already reflected in the stock.

Consensus stays above the last price

MarketScreener lists an Outperform consensus from 13 analysts, with an average target of AUD 255.84. That target lies 2.84 percent above the ASX price of AUD 248.77, a modest gap that leaves the November figures central to the next valuation debate.

Macquarie stock holds near its yearly high

Macquarie stock has a 52-week range of AUD 187.31 to AUD 267.90. Its AUD 248.77 price is 7.14 percent below the high, while the market capitalization stands at AUD 91.7 billion as of October 7, 2026.
