Target cut follows the results
TD Cowen lowered its Bank of America price target to USD 56.00 from USD 60.00 on October 15, 2026, while maintaining a Hold rating, as reported by Benzinga. The target cut came after the bank reported weaker trading activity and a regulatory charge in its third quarter.
Three events shaped the stock
On October 13, 2026, Bank of America recorded a USD 1.2 billion non-tax-deductible regulatory settlement charge tied to compliance orders. On October 14, 2026, the company reported third-quarter revenue of USD 30.0 billion, up 3 percent year over year, and net income of USD 6.9 billion, down from USD 8.3 billion. On October 15, 2026, TD Cowen cut its target to USD 56.00 from USD 60.00, according to Benzinga.
What does the charge mean for earnings?
The third-quarter figures show a sharp split between reported and adjusted performance. Bank of America reported adjusted net income of USD 8.1 billion and adjusted diluted earnings per share of USD 1.08 for the third quarter. Net interest income rose 8 percent to USD 16.4 billion, but sales and trading revenue fell 5 percent to USD 5.1 billion. The regulatory charge reduced diluted earnings per share by USD 0.17.
Next date for investors
