Analysts lifted the target for Bank Handlowy stock from PLN 114.80 to PLN 120.84 on September 27, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. The revision came as forecast revenue growth moved from minus 2.07 percent to plus 1.57 percent, while the projected net profit margin increased from 43.63 percent to 44.92 percent.
Three figures mark the latest timeline
On August 27, 2026, Bank Handlowy reported second-quarter revenue of PLN 878 million and net profit of PLN 321 million in its earnings call, according to Yahoo Finance. Return on equity reached 21.00 percent, giving the result a clear profitability anchor.
On September 27, 2026, the target revision brought the consensus figure to PLN 120.84 from PLN 114.80, a 5.26 percent increase calculated from the previous target. On October 8, 2026, the Lang & Schwarz quote supplied the market reference at EUR 27.43, down 0.80 percent from EUR 27.65.
What does the target revision change?
The new target is a valuation signal rather than a change to the bank's reported earnings. The same Simply Wall St update put forecast revenue growth at plus 1.57 percent and projected net profit margin at 44.92 percent. Those assumptions matter because the bank is reshaping its earnings mix after exiting its consumer business.
The second-quarter call also described lending growth of 16.00 percent year over year and deposit growth of 12.00 percent, according to Yahoo Finance. The figures point to expanding institutional volumes, while the PLN 321 million profit includes one-off effects linked to a real-estate sale.
Next reporting date is November 5
TradingView lists November 5, 2026 as the next earnings date. That report will test whether the second-quarter mix of 21.00 percent return on equity and 16.00 percent lending growth carries into the next period.
