Quartalszahlen: Deutsche Bank erzielt Milliardengewinn und übertrifft Erwartungen – Aktie an der Dax-Spitze
Das größte deutsche Kreditinstitut gleicht Schwächen im Anleihehandel durch starke Ergebnisse in anderen Geschäftsbereichen aus – und will nun auch die eigene Jahresprognose toppen.
Frankfurt – Deutsche Bank delivered a billion-euro profit in the third quarter, surpassing analysts' expectations, leading its shares to a Dax index high. The stock rose by nearly three percent in morning trading. Between July and September, the largest German bank reported a billion-euro profit. Year-on-year, the pre-tax result rose by eight percent to around 2.6 billion euros, while the net profit attributable to shareholders increased by about one percent to 1.6 billion euros.
The bank informed this on Wednesday in Frankfurt. Analysts had averaged a profit of roughly 2.4 billion euros and a net profit of 1.4 billion euros. Revenue, the total of all earnings, also performed slightly better than the median analyst estimates of 8.2 billion euros. Deutsche Bank CEO Christian Sewing expressed satisfaction in achieving a record profit for the third consecutive quarter.
This puts the bank on track to meet its 2026 earnings targets. The bank sees itself "well on the way to surpassing the target earnings level of around 33 billion euros for the entire 2026 year," the statement reads.
