Banco Santander-Chile stock (ISIN US05965X1090) was trading at USD 32.48 on the NYSE on October 5, 2026, up 1.53 percent from the previous close. The bank's second-quarter net income attributable to shareholders reached CLP 382.6 billion, a 40 percent year-over-year increase, according to ScanX News on September 18, 2026.

Q2 profit rose 40 percent

The profit increase came in both the quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year comparison. Combined net interest income and readjustments reached CLP 1.11 trillion in the first half of 2026, up 7.4 percent from the same period a year earlier, ScanX News reported.

Loan growth also contributed to the balance-sheet picture. Total loans reached CLP 41.4 trillion at June 30, 2026, up 1.3 percent from the prior quarter, while deposits rose to CLP 32.4 trillion. The bank's year-to-date cost of risk was 1.38 percent, and non-performing loans represented 3.4 percent of total loans.

ROE guidance moved above 24 percent

Quarterly return on average equity reached 31.5 percent, compared with the bank's long-term target above 20 percent. Full-year 2026 ROE guidance was raised above 24 percent from an initial range of 22 percent to 24 percent, according to ScanX News.

The profitability mix also carries a clear sensitivity. The quarterly net interest margin was 4.7 percent, while a 2.46 percent UF variation supported net readjustment income during the period. For investors, the 31.5 percent ROE therefore needs to be read alongside inflation-linked income and the 1.38 percent year-to-date cost of risk.
