Erste Group's planned expansion in Poland entered its subscription phase on Tuesday, November 3, after the Austrian bank received regulatory approval for its voluntary tender offer for Erste Bank Polska shares. The offer is intended to lift Erste Group's holding from 49 percent to above 50 percent while keeping ownership below 75 percent.

The latest update from Erste Group puts the indicative offer price at about 713 Polish zloty per share. The subscription period is expected to run for 30 days, with settlement anticipated in December 2026. Completion depends on sufficient shareholder participation and the ownership limits.

What Has Changed Since The Last Report

Erste Group stock traded at 107.40 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:40 CET on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.

That compares with 108.50 euros in the own report published on Friday, October 30, a decline of 1.0138 percent. This comparison is separate from the intraday movement against an Xetra close.

The Poland transaction comes alongside stronger operating targets. Erste Group raised its 2026 loan target to more than 290 billion euros after customer loans including Poland reached 287.4 billion euros at the end of September. Net interest income excluding Erste Bank Polska is now expected to grow by more than 6 percent, while fee and commission income is projected to rise by around 10 percent.

The bank said it expects to fund the tender from internal resources and maintain a CET1 ratio above 14.25 percent after completion. The final ownership level will depend on the number of shares tendered, leaving the transaction's capital effect linked to investor participation.
