KBC Group stock gains as 365.bank merger date is set

KBC Group stock traded at EUR 133.55 on Euronext Brussels on September 23, 2026, up 0.45 percent from the previous close. The immediate corporate event is the planned legal merger of 365.bank and CSOB on November 1, 2026, according to MarketScreener on September 23, 2026.

Merger sets a November date

The transaction gives the Czech and Slovak banking operations a concrete timetable. The legal combination of 365.bank and CSOB is scheduled for November 1, 2026, creating a defined corporate milestone for KBC Group stock.

The market quotation shows a second dated signal: KBC Group stock had gained 19.91 percent since January 1, 2026, while the September 23 quotation stood at EUR 133.20 in another live Euronext Brussels snapshot, according to MarketScreener on September 23, 2026.

Analyst target below the quote

The available analyst snapshot lists 20 analysts, an average target price of EUR 131.60 and a latest closing price of EUR 132.95, according to MarketScreener on September 23, 2026. The EUR 1.35 gap between the latest close and the average target is a quantified counterweight to the 19.91 percent year-to-date gain.

For investors, the November merger date is therefore more concrete than a general restructuring narrative. The key market comparison is that the average target of EUR 131.60 sits EUR 1.95 below the EUR 133.55 live quotation, while the corporate timetable supplies the next identifiable operating milestone.
