Industrial and Commercial Bank of China stock holds at HKD 7.46 as profit rises
Published on 10/05/2026 at 21:09 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSIndustrial and Commercial Bank of China (ISIN CNE1000003G1) was last at HKD 7.46 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on October 5, 2026 at 4:08 p.m. HKT, while first-half 2026 net profit rose 4.5 percent to RMB 176,475 million. The latest figures put earnings growth against a share price that is 3.99 percent below its 52-week high.
First-half income outpaces profit
According to FilingReader on September 24, 2026, operating income reached RMB 446,163 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026. Net interest income contributed RMB 341,237 million and increased 8.8 percent year over year, giving the bank a stronger revenue base than the bottom-line growth alone suggests.
The same interim figures show customer deposits of RMB 39,173,265 million and total assets of RMB 57,070,593 million at June 30, 2026. The non-performing loan ratio stood at 1.29 percent, down 0.02 percentage points from the prior year-end, while the common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 13.21 percent.
Capital plan adds balance-sheet capacity
ICBC's board approved an A-share private placement of up to RMB 100 billion on September 6, 2026, according to Moomoo. The Ministry of Finance planned to subscribe for RMB 70 billion, while China National Tobacco Corporation and related entities were listed among the proposed investors.
The transaction would replenish core Tier 1 capital and support lending capacity, but the issuance also creates a dilution consideration for existing shareholders because the final issue price and share count remain part of the approval process. That tradeoff matters alongside the bank's 1.29 percent non-performing loan ratio and the 13.21 percent core capital ratio reported for June 30, 2026.
Dividend and results dates approach
Simply Wall St reports that ICBC approved an interim cash dividend of RMB 1.511 per 10 shares on September 29, 2026. The H-share ex-dividend date is October 9, 2026, payment is scheduled for November 25, 2026, and third-quarter results are scheduled for October 31, 2026.
