Three shareholder-return milestones

On July 30, 2026, BBVA reported second-quarter net attributable profit of EUR 3.06 billion, versus EUR 2.99 billion in the first quarter, according to Stockwatch. The comparison gives the earnings trend a concrete direction: quarterly profit increased by EUR 0.07 billion, or 2.34 percent.

On October 1, 2026, BBVA announced a gross interim dividend of EUR 0.37 per share for the 2026 financial year, up 15.63 percent from EUR 0.32 in 2025, according to BBVA. On October 2, the bank said the first buyback tranche had repurchased 40,204,840 shares for EUR 1 billion.

What does the payout mean for capital?

BBVA's shareholder distribution policy allocates 40.00 to 50.00 percent of consolidated ordinary profit to payouts, while the bank targets a fully loaded CET1 ratio above 12.00 percent. The first-half 2026 net attributable profit was EUR 6.051 billion, up 11.00 percent from the same period of 2025, and the CET1 ratio stood at 12.90 percent at the end of June 2026, according to BBVA. The figures show that capital returns are being paired with a capital buffer above the stated threshold.

Dividend timetable reaches its key dates

October 13, 2026 is the ex-dividend date, October 14, 2026 is the record date, and October 15, 2026 is the payment date, according to The Globe and Mail. The EUR 0.37 gross payment is therefore the immediate shareholder-return date attached to the October 1 announcement.
