Analysts lifted the target for Bank Hapoalim stock from ILS 83.00 to ILS 91.10 on September 29, 2026, according to Simply Wall St. The target revision gives the stock article a clear valuation anchor, while the bank's latest operating disclosures point to strong lending and international financing activity.

Three dated developments shape the story

On August 11, 2026, Bank Hapoalim reported USD 830.00 million of profit for the second quarter of 2026 and planned ILS 1.24 billion in dividends and share buybacks, Calcalist Tech reported.

On September 29, 2026, the analyst-based target rose by ILS 8.10, or 9.76 percent, from ILS 83.00 to ILS 91.10. The cited assumptions included higher revenue growth, improved profit margins, a lower discount rate and a revised future price-to-earnings estimate.

On September 30, 2026, Bank Hapoalim agreed to provide Stark Power with USD 85.00 million in financing for US power and energy-storage projects, according to The Jerusalem Post. The facility combines a USD 60.00 million loan facility with a USD 25.00 million guarantee facility.

What does the financing add?

The Stark Power agreement expands Bank Hapoalim's US project-finance activity beyond a single loan. The financing supports acquisitions and construction of power-generation and data-center projects, giving the bank exposure to infrastructure lending while diversifying its international business mix.

EBN said the agreement includes loans and guarantees for projects in the United States. That structure matters because guarantee capacity can support transactions before assets reach commercial operation, while the loan component finances acquisitions and development.

Profit and valuation remain linked

The second-quarter profit figure and the revised ILS 91.10 target point to the same investor question: how durable are the bank's earnings and margins as credit expands? The target update cites a projected profit margin of 39.99 percent and a future price-to-earnings estimate of 13.13 times, making profitability assumptions central to the valuation discussion.

Bank Hapoalim's latest reported figures also include ILS 11.51 billion of second-quarter revenue and ILS 4.92 billion of net interest income. Those figures come from the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provide the operating base behind the profit discussion.

Bank Hapoalim's market identity

Bank Hapoalim B.M. trades under ticker POLI.TA on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and belongs to Israel's financial sector. Global Banking and Finance Review identifies the listing, ticker and ISIN IL0006625771.

The bank's international financing strategy, second-quarter profit and higher analyst target now form a connected three-part picture: operating earnings support the valuation case, while projects such as Stark Power show how the bank is deploying its corporate-finance capabilities.
