Barclays raised its price target for Erste Group Bank from EUR 135.00 to EUR 136.00 on October 19, 2026, while keeping its Overweight rating, according to Fio banka. The new target stands 32.23 percent above the EUR 102.85 price at Lang & Schwarz on October 23, 2026 at 5:09 p.m. CEST, down 1.77 percent versus the Vienna close of October 22, 2026.

Results date is October 30

Erste Group's investor-relations calendar lists October 30, 2026 as the date for its third-quarter 2026 results. The date gives investors the next scheduled checkpoint for earnings, asset quality and capital trends. The company reported second-quarter net income of EUR 1.10 billion in the period ended June 30, 2026, but that figure is not used as a current comparison here because the investor-relations page does not present it alongside the upcoming release.

Price sits below the target

The Barclays target is EUR 33.15 above the Lang & Schwarz price. Measured against the target, the stock sits 24.37 percent below it. Erste's market capitalization is EUR 40.0 billion, its price-to-earnings ratio is 11.28, and its 52-week range is EUR 82.00 to EUR 126.80, with these market measures dated October 23, 2026.

What matters before results

The immediate comparison is between the EUR 136.00 analyst target and the scheduled October 30 results date. Barclays kept its Overweight stance while raising the target by EUR 1.00, a 0.74 percent increase from EUR 135.00. The small target revision leaves the reporting date as the next clearly defined event for the stock.
