ANZ Group Holdings (ISIN AU000000ANZ3) was trading at EUR 23.60 at Lang & Schwarz on October 7, 2026 at 10:29 a.m. CEST. The bank's third-quarter operating income reached AUD 5.61 billion for the period ended June 30, 2026, versus AUD 5.66 billion a year earlier, according to Bondsupermart on September 28, 2026. On the ASX, ANZ stock was AUD 37.95, or 7.44 percent below its 52-week high of AUD 41.00.

Third-quarter income eases

Bondsupermart reported that net loans and advances stood at AUD 846 billion in the third quarter, unchanged from the prior-year comparison, while customer deposits rose to AUD 786 billion from AUD 778 billion. The net interest margin was 1.54 percent, up from the first-half 2026 average of 1.53 percent.

The operating-income decline therefore came with stable lending and higher deposits rather than a contraction in the loan book. Asset quality also improved: the non-performing exposure ratio fell to 0.55 percent in the third quarter from 0.77 percent a year earlier, while the Common Equity Tier 1 ratio reached 12.51 percent as of June 30, 2026.

Analyst target moves higher

According to Simply Wall St on October 1, 2026, analysts raised a price target for ANZ Group Holdings from AUD 35.55 to AUD 36.43. The revision reflected changes to discount-rate assumptions, revenue growth, profit margins and the future price-to-earnings multiple.

The target remains below the AUD 37.95 ASX quote cited above, so the revised estimate does not erase the tension between balance-sheet resilience and slower income growth. Simply Wall St also listed forecast annual earnings growth of 7.70 percent and revenue growth of 3.50 percent, both forward estimates rather than reported results.

ANZ valuation and trading context

ANZ Group Holdings had a market capitalization of AUD 114.3 billion as of October 7, 2026. Its ASX 52-week range was AUD 33.36 to AUD 41.00, placing the AUD 37.95 quote closer to the upper end than the lower end of that interval.

Global Banking and Finance Review identifies the company as ANZ.AX on the ASX and assigns it ISIN AU000000ANZ3 in its market reference page.

Euro quote remains modestly higher

The Lang & Schwarz price of EUR 23.60 was up 0.90 percent versus the prior close of EUR 23.39 on October 6, 2026. The sub-1.00 percent move keeps the signal measured, while the ASX valuation shows how the same company looks in its primary-market currency.
