Goldman Sachs (ISIN US38141G1040) is trading at EUR 785.80 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 11:30 a.m. CEST, 0.51 percent below the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 at EUR 789.80. On October 22, 2026, Goldman Sachs announced a USD 500 million commitment to launch a small-business AI institute and expand its 10,000 Small Businesses program. The initiative gives the bank a concrete growth and community-finance angle beyond its quarterly results.

Three dates reshape the story

On April 13, 2026, Goldman Sachs reported diluted earnings per share of USD 17.55 for the first quarter, according to Goldman Sachs. On October 13, 2026, the third quarter produced USD 18.68 billion in net revenue and USD 17.01 in diluted earnings per share, as Goldman Sachs reported.

The October 22, 2026 AI announcement is the latest event. The USD 500 million commitment is designed to support another 10,000 businesses, while partnerships with Anthropic, Google, Meta and OpenAI will provide training and tools.

What does the AI plan add?

The immediate investor question is whether the program strengthens Goldman Sachs' long-term client relationships rather than its next-quarter revenue. The company said a survey of more than 2,400 program graduates found that 86 percent used AI, up from 56 percent in 2024, while only 15 percent had fully integrated it into core operations. That gap explains the program's practical emphasis on education, research and access to capital.

The earnings backdrop is already substantial. Third-quarter 2026 net revenue was USD 18.68 billion, 23 percent higher than in the third quarter of 2025, while net earnings reached USD 5.29 billion and annualized return on equity was 18.7 percent, according to MarketScreener. Revenue in Global Banking and Markets rose 32 percent year over year to USD 13.46 billion, showing where the quarter's operating strength was concentrated.

Dividend date is December 2

The next dated shareholder event is the USD 5.00 quarterly dividend. Goldman Sachs declared it on October 12, 2026, with December 2, 2026 as the record date and December 30, 2026 as the payment date, according to the third-quarter release.
