Bank Hapoalim is expected to report Q2 2026 revenue of $1.91 billion and an EPS of ₪1.71, as the stock currently trades near $23.00 compared to an average analyst price target of $27.60.
Investors are primarily focused on the bank's Net Interest Margin (NIM) and its ability to withstand potential interest rate cuts by the Bank of Israel while maintaining its robust loan growth trajectory.
Despite the ongoing regional geopolitical situation, the bank has demonstrated significant resilience, recently reporting a 13% return on equity and maintaining a strong 50% capital return profile through cash dividends and share buybacks. Analysts will also be scrutinizing provisions for credit losses and the continued impact of the special banking tax on the firm's long-term profitability.
