  "account": "BAWAG Group reported Q3 2026 earnings per share of EUR 3.18, exceeding the EUR 3.09 forecast. Revenue reached EUR 599 million, slightly below the estimated EUR 599.55 million. Net profit rose to EUR 248 million, with a return on tangible common equity of 27%. Core revenues increased 8% year over year, driven by a better asset mix and steady fee income. The cost-income ratio remained below 30%, and the CET1 ratio was 17.1%, with over EUR 1 billion of excess capital. The bank's performance was characterized by strong operating discipline, healthy capital generation, and higher-margin consumer and small-business lending. Management expects to exceed 2026 targets, with full-year net profit above EUR 960 million and return on tangible common equity above 20%.",
