Income growth returns in 2026

According to Futunn on September 22, 2026, China Merchants Bank's operating income reached RMB 178.181 billion in the first half of 2026, up 4.83 percent from the same period a year earlier. Net profit attributable to shareholders rose 2.02 percent to RMB 76.445 billion during the same reporting period.

The mix of earnings provides the more useful investor signal. Net interest income increased 5.60 percent year over year to RMB 112.022 billion in the first half of 2026, while net fee and commission income rose 5.99 percent to RMB 39.855 billion. Wealth management fees and commissions grew 26.53 percent to RMB 16.192 billion, making that business the fastest-growing fee category in the report.

Margins face a measured squeeze

China Merchants Bank's net interest margin was 1.83 percent in the first half of 2026, down 5 basis points year over year. The decline was narrower than the 12-basis-point contraction recorded in the same period a year earlier, suggesting that lower funding costs partly offset pressure on asset yields.

Credit quality remains a counterweight to the income growth. The non-performing loan ratio was 0.94 percent at the end of the first half of 2026, unchanged from year-end 2025, while the loan loss reserve coverage ratio stood at 385.10 percent, down 6.69 percentage points from year-end 2025.

Results date sets the next test

The October 23 reporting date gives investors a concrete checkpoint for judging whether the first-half improvement can continue. The second-half test is concentrated in loan demand, net interest margin pressure and the growth of wealth management fees, which expanded 26.53 percent in the first half of 2026.
