Al Bilad Bank stock was trading at SAR 23.55 on Tadawul at 10:06 a.m. AST on October 7, 2026, with a daily change of -0.17 percent. The bank's first-half 2026 net profit rose 4.18 percent year over year to SAR 1.527 billion, according to Borsa Talk Gulf.

Profit reaches SAR 1.527 billion

The result covers the six months ended June 30, 2026, and compares with net profit of SAR 1.466 billion in the same period of 2025. The increase gives the stock a fresh earnings anchor ahead of the bank's next scheduled results date.

The latest reported figure is a half-year GAAP net profit, not a forecast. That distinction matters because the market is also carrying a separate analyst estimate for the coming twelve months.

Analysts see SAR 28.31

A consensus compiled by Investing.com showed a Buy rating based on seven analysts. Three analysts rated the shares Buy, four recommended holding them and none rated them Sell.

The same consensus placed the average 12-month price target at SAR 28.31, with a low of SAR 27 and a high of SAR 30. The target range is a forward market expectation, while the SAR 1.527 billion figure is an already reported half-year result.

October 21 is the next checkpoint

Investing.com lists October 21, 2026, as the date for Al Bilad Bank's next earnings release. The date gives investors a concrete point at which the first-half profit trend can be tested against third-quarter performance.

On October 7, the stock's 52-week range was SAR 23.32 to SAR 30.16, placing the intraday price SAR 6.61 below the yearly high. Trading volume stood at 34,786 shares at 10:06 a.m. AST, so the immediate market signal was modest compared with the stronger change in reported profit.

Stock trades below yearly high

Al Bilad Bank stock was last at SAR 23.55 on Tadawul on October 7, 2026. Its market capitalization was SAR 35.3 billion, giving the earnings growth and the October reporting date greater weight than the small intraday price move.
