First-half profit reaches EUR 624 million

Mapfre reported an attributable result of EUR 624 million for the first half of 2026, an increase of 9.40 percent from the same period a year earlier. Its premiums reached EUR 16.127 billion, up 1.10 percent, while the non-life combined ratio improved to 92.80 percent. The figures come from Mapfre's investor-relations page, which also reported a 12.50 percent return on equity and a solvency ratio of 208.80 percent at the end of the first half.

The earnings profile gives the analyst target a clear counterpoint. A separate report from Finanzas said Renta 4 raised its target from EUR 4.10 to EUR 4.59 on October 1, 2026, while keeping its recommendation unchanged. That target stood 5.03 percent above the October 16 Lang & Schwarz price.
