JPMorgan raised its NatWest price target from GBp 830.00 to GBp 840.00 on October 1, 2026, while keeping an Overweight rating, according to Morningstar. The move gives NatWest stock a fresh analyst reference as the bank approaches its next results date.
What does 19.70 percent RoTE mean?
NatWest delivered a 19.70 percent return on tangible equity for the first half of 2026, and its full-year return guidance moved above 19.00 percent, ScanX reported on September 18, 2026. Operating profit grew 12.40 percent to GBP 2.3 billion in the second quarter of 2026, while the cost-income ratio reached 46.00 percent.
The quality of that return is central to the valuation discussion. NatWest also reported customer assets and liabilities growth of 5.30 percent in the first half of 2026, above its medium-term target of more than 4.00 percent, according to Investing.com on September 15, 2026.
Three milestones shaped the setup
On July 31, 2026, NatWest reported first-half return on tangible equity of 19.70 percent and operating profit of GBP 2.3 billion. On September 15, 2026, management presented GBP 17.9 billion of 2026 total income guidance at the Barclays conference. On October 1, 2026, JPMorgan lifted its target to GBp 840.00 from GBp 830.00.
Next dates are October 30 and November 25
NatWest Group will release its third-quarter 2026 results on October 30, 2026, followed by an investor spotlight on Private Banking and Wealth Management on November 25, 2026, according to NatWest Group. The October report will test whether the first-half return profile and the upgraded guidance remain intact through the next reporting period.
