UBS Group (ISIN CH0244767585) stock costs EUR 42.78 at Lang & Schwarz on October 14, 2026, at 9:06 a.m. CEST, down 0.58 percent versus the Xetra close of October 13, 2026 at EUR 43.03. Deutsche Bank Research raised its target for UBS to CHF 47.00 on October 8, 2026, while retaining a Buy rating, as Boerse Express reported.
Target rises before quarterly results
The analyst view arrives ahead of UBS's third-quarter report. Deutsche Bank Research expects third-quarter pretax profit to rise 23.00 percent, according to Boerse Express on October 11, 2026.
The next report is scheduled for October 28, 2026. A preview cited by Finanzen.at puts consensus earnings per share at USD 0.917 and expected revenue at USD 13.07 billion for the quarter ending September 30, 2026.
What does the forecast mean for earnings?
UBS enters the reporting date with a strong second-quarter comparison base. In the second quarter of 2026, net profit attributable to shareholders was USD 2.80 billion and diluted earnings per share were USD 0.87, according to the bank's UBS report.
Reported revenue reached USD 13.70 billion in the second quarter of 2026, up 13.00 percent from USD 12.11 billion in the second quarter of 2025. The bank also reported a 14.40 percent common equity tier 1 capital ratio for the period, giving the forecast a capital-strength context.
Three UBS events set the sequence
On July 29, 2026, UBS reported USD 2.80 billion in second-quarter net profit through its official results release. On October 6, 2026, it agreed to transfer former Credit Suisse fund administration businesses in Switzerland and Luxembourg to Northern Trust, with completion expected in the second quarter of 2027, according to UBS. On October 8, 2026, Deutsche Bank Research set a CHF 47.00 target and forecast a 23.00 percent third-quarter pretax profit increase.
Two dates shape the near term
UBS has an optional repayment date of October 27, 2026 for Credit Suisse notes with a volume of JPY 8.30 billion, and it is due to publish third-quarter results on October 28, 2026, according to Boerse Express.
Stock stays below the October 13 close
For investors, the key tension is the gap between a CHF 47.00 analyst target and the bank's upcoming earnings test, while the euro quotation remains below the previous Xetra session's close. UBS Group stock was trading at EUR 42.78 at Lang & Schwarz on October 14, 2026, at 9:06 a.m. CEST, 0.58 percent below the Xetra close of October 13, 2026 at EUR 43.03.
