Sampo (ISIN FI4000552500) carried a market capitalization of EUR 23.2 billion on October 8, 2026, while its Helsinki-listed shares were trading at EUR 8.72. The next major checkpoint is the Q3/2026 report scheduled for November 4, 2026.
First-half figures set the baseline
Sampo says its Half-Year Financial Report for January through June 2026 was published on August 12, 2026. The report showed EUR 2.437 billion in insurance revenue including brokerage, a EUR 418 million underwriting result, an 82.9 percent combined ratio and EUR 584 million in profit before taxes for P&C operations.
The same Q2/2026 figures included earnings per share of EUR 0.17 and operating earnings per share of EUR 0.14. The combination gives investors a measurable operating base before the company enters the second half of the year.
Guidance meets a clear risk item
In its Q3/2026 pre-silent analyst information dated October 1, 2026, Sampo retained its 2026 outlook for insurance revenue of EUR 9.70-9.85 billion, representing 7-9 percent growth, and underwriting result of EUR 1.550-1.625 billion, representing 4-9 percent growth.
The company also disclosed a EUR 118 million impairment loss before tax for Q3/2026 tied to Danish IT systems. MFN reported that the non-cash charge will be excluded from operating earnings per share and should have a minor solvency effect.
Consensus remains above the price
MarketScreener listed an Outperform consensus from 16 analysts on September 22, 2026, with an average target of EUR 10.56. Compared with the EUR 8.72 price on October 8, 2026, that target lies 21.1 percent above the shares.
The valuation gap is paired with a specific near-term test: Q3 results must show how the impairment, claims development and underwriting performance fit with the full-year ranges. Sampo's Q2 earnings call described first-half operating earnings per share growth of 12 percent and Q2 growth of 6 percent, as reported by Yahoo Finance on August 12, 2026.
