Peoples Bancorp (ISIN US7097891011) was last at USD 36.73 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, down 1.02 percent from the prior close. The bank's next scheduled checkpoint is its third-quarter 2026 earnings release on October 20, 2026, before the market opens, followed by an 11:00 a.m. ET conference call, according to WV News.

Merger expands the balance sheet

On September 30, 2026, Peoples Bancorp announced an all-stock agreement to acquire Capital Bancorp for USD 728.1 million. Capital shareholders would receive 1.11 Peoples shares for each Capital share, while former Capital owners would hold 32 percent of Peoples after completion.

The proposed combination would create a bank with USD 14 billion in assets, USD 10 billion in loans and USD 11 billion in deposits. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals, so the October earnings report will arrive before the deal reaches that milestone.

Stock remains below its yearly high

At USD 36.73 on October 6, 2026, the stock stood 13.1 percent below its 52-week high of USD 42.29 and USD 9.24 above its 52-week low of USD 27.49. The session range was USD 36.70 to USD 37.37, with volume of 415,230 shares.

Peoples had USD 9.5 billion in total assets as of June 30, 2026, according to the company's investor-relations profile. That balance-sheet scale sits below the USD 14 billion pro forma figure targeted by the Capital transaction, making integration and regulatory execution central to the investment case.

Consensus points above the last price

MarketBeat reported on October 4, 2026 that six research firms gave Peoples Bancorp a Moderate Buy consensus and an average 12-month target of USD 41.50. That target lies 13.0 percent above the USD 36.73 last price, while the same review cited quarterly EPS of USD 0.96 versus USD 0.85 consensus and revenue of USD 121.95 million versus USD 120.05 million consensus.

Nasdaq price and market value

Peoples Bancorp was last at USD 36.73 on Nasdaq on October 6, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. ET, with a market capitalization of USD 1.3 billion. The figures frame the October 20 results as the next test of earnings performance before management advances the proposed merger.
