Societe Generale stock (ISIN FR0000130809) was trading at EUR 61.11 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 10:52 a.m. CET, up 2.48 percent versus the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 (EUR 59.63). The bank's October 1 information note sets October 29, 2026, for its third-quarter and nine-month results, giving the latest market move a clear calendar marker, according to Societe Generale.
Second-quarter figures set the benchmark
The next report will be measured against second-quarter operating figures. Revenue increased 4.5 percent from the second quarter of 2025, while operating costs declined 4.1 percent year over year, according to Societe Generale.
The same document reports a second-quarter cost-to-income ratio of 58.6 percent and a return on tangible equity of 12.2 percent. Those figures put the October 29 release under pressure to show whether efficiency gains and profitability remained on track through the third quarter, rather than relying on the strong second-quarter comparison alone.
Three capital events shaped the quarter
Societe Generale canceled 11,636,439 treasury shares on September 23, 2026, according to Societe Generale. The bank completed its EUR 1.5 billion extraordinary share buyback on September 30, 2026, after announcing the program on July 30, 2026, the document says. The current EUR 61.11 quotation is the third dated market marker in this sequence.
What dates matter next?
The next substantiated date is October 29, 2026, for third-quarter and nine-month results. The following scheduled report is February 4, 2027, for fourth-quarter and full-year 2026 results, according to Societe Generale.
Stock price and investor frame
The bank's market capitalization was EUR 44.3 billion as of October 26, 2026. Its 52-week range was EUR 52.38 to EUR 84.78, leaving the quotation 27.92 percent below the upper end of that range. The financial calendar is therefore the immediate test for whether second-quarter profitability and cost control carried into the next reporting period.
Societe Generale was trading at EUR 61.11 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 10:52 a.m. CET, 2.48 percent above the Xetra close of October 23, 2026 at EUR 59.63. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Societe Generale stock.
