The update also showed a CET1 capital ratio of 12.51 percent. Customer deposits grew by AUD 15 billion and customer loans by AUD 24 billion in 3Q26, while a NZD 125 million provision for a New Zealand class action affected cash profit, InvestSMART reported.

Citi target stays above the share price

Citi's AUD 39.25 target stands AUD 1.41 above the September 25, 2026, ASX price of AUD 37.84, equivalent to 3.73 percent above the share price. The target therefore sits below ANZ's 52-week high of AUD 41.00, leaving the bank's earnings trend and capital position central to the valuation discussion.

ANZ's latest operating figures show a modest profit increase alongside balance-sheet expansion. The 1 percent cash-profit gain contrasts with the 1.10 percent daily share-price rise, while the 12.51 percent CET1 ratio provides a dated capital reference for the third-quarter picture.
