Bank of Communications stock reports 4.04 percent H1 profit growth

Bank of Communications stock closed at HKD 8.21 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on September 23, 2026, down 0.36 percent from the previous session and 0.73 percent below its 52-week high of HKD 8.27. The bank's first-half results provide the main operating reference, with shareholder profit rising 4.04 percent.

H1 profit reaches RMB 47.874 billion

According to Moomoo on September 22, 2026, net profit attributable to shareholders reached RMB 47.874 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with growth of 4.04 percent year over year. Earnings per share were RMB 0.52 for the period.

The result came alongside net operating income of RMB 142.54 billion, an increase of 6.77 percent from the prior-year period. The 2.73 percentage point gap between operating income growth and profit growth is the key financial tension in the report, because stronger top-line expansion did not translate into an equal profit increase.

Assets expand to RMB 16.26 trillion

The Globe and Mail reported on September 18, 2026, that total assets increased 4.58 percent to RMB 16.26 trillion in the first half. Customer deposits grew 6.53 percent, while net interest income increased 8.62 percent.

The balance-sheet figures add scale to the earnings picture. Deposit growth above 6 percent gives the bank a larger funding base, while the 8.62 percent increase in net interest income exceeded the 4.04 percent rise in shareholder profit. For investors, the spread points toward expenses, provisions or other below-the-line factors as the more important follow-up indicators.
