Industrial and Commercial Bank of China stock falls 3.31 percent
Published on 10/04/2026 at 10:27 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSIndustrial and Commercial Bank of China stock (ISIN CNE1000003G1) fell 3.31 percent to HKD 7.455 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange at the close on October 2, 2026. The immediate investor checkpoint is the bank's interim dividend, which will be excluded from the H-share price on October 9, 2026.
Dividend date sets the checkpoint
According to The Globe and Mail on September 11, 2026, ICBC declared an interim ordinary cash dividend of RMB 1.511 per 10 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The same timetable sets October 20, 2026, as the record date and November 25, 2026, as the payment date for H shares.
The dividend timetable gives the October 2 price move a clear calendar context: the stock traded at HKD 7.455 after a prior close of HKD 7.710. Its session range was HKD 7.430 to HKD 7.630, while the 52-week range stood at HKD 5.560 to HKD 7.770.
Revenue grew while profit lagged
ICBC's second-quarter 2026 revenue reached CNY 166.5 billion, up 5.8 percent from the second quarter of 2025, while net income was CNY 82.3 billion, down 1.9 percent year over year, according to Simply Wall St in its August 29, 2026 earnings update. The contrast matters because revenue growth did not translate into higher quarterly net income.
The bank's market capitalization was HKD 2.7 trillion on October 2, 2026, and trading volume reached 190,689,971 shares. A current analyst snapshot cited by The Globe and Mail lists a Buy rating and a HKD 7.70 price target.
Results date follows in October
Simply Wall St reports that ICBC plans to publish its third-quarter 2026 results on October 31, 2026. That date follows the dividend adjustment and gives investors the next formal test of whether the bank can extend revenue growth while stabilizing profitability.
Industrial and Commercial Bank of China stock closed at HKD 7.455 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on October 2, 2026, down 3.31 percent for the session. The price was 4.05 percent below its 52-week high of HKD 7.770.
