Handelsbanken A stock was trading at EUR 13.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. CEST, while the bank prepared to publish its January to September report on October 21. Handelsbanken states that the report will be released at 7:00 a.m. CET, followed by a presentation at 8:15 a.m. CET.
Consensus points to lower profit
Market expectations put third-quarter operating profit at SEK 7,369 million, compared with SEK 7,690 million in the same period a year earlier. The forecast comes from 19 analyst estimates cited by MarketScreener on October 19, 2026. Net interest income is forecast at SEK 10,178 million, down from SEK 10,578 million, while net commission income is forecast at SEK 3,214 million, up from SEK 2,978 million.
The comparison sets a clear test for the release: fee income is expected to offset part of the pressure on net interest income, but the operating-profit forecast is SEK 321 million below the prior-year figure. For investors, the quality of revenue and the level of credit losses will be central to the report reaction.
