Manulife Financial (ISIN CA56501R1064) was trading at EUR 37.83 at Lang & Schwarz on October 7, 2026 at 3:38 p.m. CEST, down 0.79 percent versus the EUR 38.13 prior close. MarketBeat reported on October 7, 2026 that the stock had moved above its 200-day moving average, putting the recent share-price trend alongside a strong second-quarter operating update.

Second-quarter growth broadens

According to Benzinga in its October 5, 2026 transcript of Manulife's second-quarter call, annual premium equivalent sales increased 21.00 percent year over year and core earnings per share grew 16.00 percent. The figures show that the quarter's progress extended beyond a single market measure.

The same transcript reported core earnings growth of 21.00 percent in Asia and 9.00 percent in Global Wealth and Asset Management. Net inflows in that wealth business reached USD 0.40 billion in the second quarter, giving investors a quantified view of where operating momentum was strongest.

Risk transfer changes the balance

Manulife also announced a long-term care reinsurance transaction covering CAD 3.20 billion of reserves at an 80.00 percent quota share, according to Benzinga. Management said the transaction will reduce long-term care morbidity risk by 24.00 percent when combined with earlier transactions.

The capital effect is expected to be broadly neutral, while foregone core earnings were described as CAD 30.00 million per year initially. That trade-off matters because the company retains the assets and their future earnings potential instead of seeking a larger immediate capital release.
