Deutsche Bank posts €1.9 billion third-quarter after-tax profit

Deutsche Bank reported €1.9 billion in profit after tax for the third quarter of 2026, a record for that quarter, in results published on 28 October.

Pre-tax profit increased 8% to €2.6 billion. Earnings per share rose 6% to €0.94. Profit after tax for the first nine months reached €5.9 billion, up 7% from the comparable period.

Pre-tax and after-tax profit represent different stages of the income statement. Comparisons between reporting periods should use matching measures rather than comparing a pre-tax figure with a net result.
