mBank (ISIN PLBRE0000012) disclosed PLN 78 million in third-quarter legal-risk costs on October 6, 2026, according to MB-IG. The figure keeps attention on the bank's progress with foreign-currency mortgage exposures before its next full quarterly report. For investors, the timing matters because the second-quarter earnings base was unusually strong.
Legal costs set the starting point
mBank's legal-risk costs for the third quarter were reported at PLN 78 million. That figure compares with the bank's PLN 1.06 billion net income in the second quarter of 2026, a result reported by MB-IG. The comparison gives the upcoming report a clear test: whether earnings can stay elevated while legal charges remain contained.
Three dated developments
On July 29, 2026, mBank presented its second-quarter results through its investor-relations materials, while net income for the quarter stood at PLN 1.06 billion, as reported by mBank and MB-IG. On October 6, 2026, legal-risk costs for the third quarter were put at PLN 78 million. On October 28, 2026, mBank is scheduled to publish its third-quarter report.
What does 78 million mean?
The PLN 78 million estimate is small relative to the PLN 1.06 billion second-quarter net-income figure, but it does not settle the outlook for revenue or margins. The next report will show how legal charges, lending activity and net interest income affected the quarter as a whole. The bank's market capitalization was PLN 59.9 billion as of October 22, 2026.
Next reporting dates
mBank's investor calendar lists the third-quarter report for October 28, 2026 and the fourth-quarter report for February 4, 2027, according to mBank. Those dates frame the next two checkpoints for the bank's earnings trajectory.
