Investec stock (ISIN GB00B17BBQ50) was last at GBp 610 on the London Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026, at 12:35 p.m. London time, up 0.99 percent from the prior close of GBp 604. Investing.com lists a Strong Buy consensus from 4 analysts, with an average 12-month target of GBP 768.75, a high of GBP 810 and a low of GBP 715.

Consensus points to higher value

The consensus target is published in GBP, while the London share quote is shown in GBp, so the two figures should not be treated as a direct percentage comparison. The market quote sits between the 52-week low of GBp 499.36 and the high of GBp 690, with market capitalization at GBP 5.2 billion on October 6, 2026.

The current analyst view arrives ahead of Investec's interim report. Investegate published the company's pre-close statement dated September 18, 2026, which identified the London share code as INVP and confirmed the ISIN.

Guidance favors earnings growth

For the six months ending September 30, 2026, Investec expects adjusted EPS of 41.7p to 43.3p, compared with 40.5p in 1H2026. That represents growth of 3 percent to 7 percent, while headline EPS is forecast at 38.1p to 39.7p versus 36.7p previously, or 4 percent to 8 percent.

The same September 18, 2026 statement puts pre-provision adjusted operating profit at GBP 531.4 million to GBP 548.4 million, against GBP 527.4 million in 1H2026. Core loans reached GBP 37.0 billion for the five months ended August 31, 2026, up 6.3 percent annualized in neutral currency from GBP 35.5 billion at March 31, 2026, while customer deposits reached GBP 46.0 billion.

Morningstar reported on September 18, 2026, that the UK business was expected to post adjusted operating profit 2 percent to 6 percent below the prior period, contrasting with growth in Southern African operations. That regional split is the key counterweight to the group earnings forecast.

Interim results set for November

Investec's interim results for the six months ending September 30, 2026, are scheduled for November 19, 2026, according to Investegate. The report will test whether the expected adjusted EPS range of 41.7p to 43.3p is supported by loan growth, client activity and the weaker UK contribution.
