Bank of Nova Scotia (ISIN CA0641491075) expects a one-time earnings hit from a Chilean tax-rate cut, according to MarketScreener on October 21, 2026. The stock was trading at EUR 82.52 at Lang & Schwarz on October 23, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. CEST.

Tax change weighs on earnings

The Chilean measure is a one-time item rather than a change to the bank's recurring revenue base. The report links the expected impact to a lower tax rate in Chile and frames the effect as an earnings charge for the period.

The same report also identifies a separate contribution from KeyCorp to adjusted earnings in the fourth quarter of CAD 104.00 million. That figure provides a counterweight to the tax item, but the two effects belong to different periods.

Third-quarter results set the base

MarketBeat reported that the quarter released on August 25, 2026 produced CAD 10.54 billion in revenue and CAD 2.28 in earnings per share. The same report put net margin at 14.08 percent and return on equity at 11.41 percent.

These figures give investors a clearer baseline for separating the Chile tax item from the bank's operating performance. The next reported period will show whether the one-time effect changes the earnings trend or stays isolated.

What dates matter next?

The next dividend payment is scheduled for October 28, 2026, with a quarterly amount of CAD 1.14, according to MarketBeat. The next earnings report is scheduled for December 2, 2026, according to Gekko.

MarketBeat's October 22, 2026 overview listed a consensus price target of CAD 129.50 from 12 analysts and a Moderate Buy consensus. The target is a Canadian-dollar valuation reference and is separate from the euro quotation in Germany.

Price stays the investor frame

The euro quotation places Bank of Nova Scotia in the regular Xetra-linked trading phase for German investors, while the home listing is on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The tax item, the third-quarter figures and the scheduled dates are the main facts to track alongside the price.
