Over the past year, Banco Macro’s earnings cycle showed volatility in fundamentals and share reactions. Q1 2025 results featured sharp profit declines and the stock fell. A strong rebound in Q2 2025 net income was followed by a positive price move. Q3 2025 results highlighted weaker 9M profitability but the stock rose. The 2024 annual 20‑F filing and Q4 2024 earnings each triggered sizable but opposite moves. Today’s 4Q25 report fits into this pattern of fluctuating earnings under a still-solid capital base.
Historical Comparison
Across the last 5 earnings-related releases, average next-day move was -0.31%, indicating generally muted price responses to Banco Macro’s results.
Earnings updates have tracked a volatile 2025: weaker Q1, strong rebound in Q2, softer trends in Q3, and now a Q4 2025 report that combines YoY pressure with solid capital ratios.
