Lloyds Banking Group nine-month pretax profit up 42%

Risk-weighted assets increased to £247,362 million by September 30, 2026, while customer deposits stood at £502,777 million.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Lloyds Banking Group plc reported unaudited results for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, with profit before tax of £6,625 million, 42% higher than a year earlier. Total income rose 13% to £16,084 million, while profit after tax was £4,835 million, compared with £3,322 million; earnings per share were 7.6 pence versus 4.8 pence. Operating expenses fell 5% to £8,533 million, primarily reflecting a lower remediation charge.

Net interest income increased 10% to £10,827 million, reflecting higher average interest-earning assets and margin, including increased structural hedge income, partly offset by mortgage margin compression and competition for deposits. Other income rose 18% to £5,257 million. The impairment charge increased to £926 million from £619 million, due to adverse model updates and Retail balance-sheet growth, alongside lower one-off provision releases in Commercial Banking.

At September 30, 2026, total assets were £995,140 million and risk-weighted assets were £247,362 million. The common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 13.3%, down from 14.0% at December 31, 2025; the total capital ratio was 17.9%, versus 18.9%. Customer deposits were £502,777 million, compared with £496,457 million at December 31, 2025.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

Lloyds’ nine-month report is incorporated into its F-3 registration statement, while motor-finance redress awaits a tribunal hearing in the second half of February 2027.

Lloyds Banking Group says the report’s unaudited interim results are incorporated by reference into its F-3 registration statement from October 29, 2026, making the report part of that registration filing.

Lloyds attributes the lower CET1 ratio to banking profits and an insurance dividend being more than offset by buybacks, dividends and distributions, and higher risk-weighted assets.

For motor finance, Lloyds says its existing provision remains its current best estimate and reports no further charges for the issue; implementation of the FCA redress schemes is delayed, with a hearing on four challenges listed for the second half of February 2027.

Common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio financial

"common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio reduced to 13.3%"

The common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio measures a bank’s core capital—mainly common stock and retained earnings—against its assets after those assets are adjusted for risk. Think of it as the size of the bank’s financial cushion compared with the riskiness of what it owns; a higher CET1 ratio means a bigger cushion to absorb losses and generally signals greater safety for investors, though it can also affect returns.

Risk-weighted assets financial

"Risk-weighted assets increased by £11,849 million"

Risk-weighted assets are a bank’s assets (like loans and investments) adjusted by how risky regulators consider each one, so safer items count less and riskier items count more. Think of it as packing a suitcase where heavy, fragile items take up more “real” space; higher risk-weighted assets mean a bank must hold more capital as a cushion. Investors watch this because it affects a bank’s safety, regulatory limits and ability to lend or return money to shareholders.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Income statement

The Group’s statutory profit before tax for the first nine months of 2026 was £6,625 million, 42% higher than in the

first nine months of 2025, reflecting higher total income and lower operating expenses, primarily due to a lower

remediation charge. This was partially offset by a higher impairment charge. Profit after tax was £4,835 million and

earnings per share were 7.6 pence (nine months ended 30 September 2025: £3,322 million and 4.8 pence

respectively).

Total income for the first nine months of 2026 was £16,084 million, an increase of 13% on the prior period (nine

months to 30 September 2025: £14,252 million). Net interest income of £10,827 million was up 10% (nine months

to 30 September 2025: £9,808 million), driven by higher average interest-earning assets and a higher margin,

resulting from increased structural hedge income as maturing positions were reinvested at higher interest rates,

partially offset by asset margin compression across portfolios, particularly in UK mortgages, and a competitive

deposit market.

Other income increased by 18% to £5,257 million (nine months to 30 September 2025: £4,444 million), with a

higher net investment return and finance result in respect of insurance and investment contracts, higher net fee

and commission income, higher net trading income and higher other operating income, partially offset by a lower

insurance service result. The net investment return and finance result in respect of insurance and investment

contracts and net trading income increased due to market movements. Net fee and commission income increased

by 21% as a result of strengthening customer activity and the addition of Lloyds Wealth. Other operating income

increased by 17% as a result of vehicle fleet growth and higher average vehicle rental value in UK Motor Finance, a

one-off gain on the securitisation of primarily legacy mortgages and continued growth in Lloyds Living. The

insurance service result reduced due to increased general insurance claims, particularly as a result of the industry-

wide subsidence event.

Total operating expenses of £8,533 million decreased by 5% (nine months to 30 September 2025: £8,955 million)

reflecting a lower remediation charge, continued cost savings, a lower severance expense and plateauing

investment as the current strategic cycle culminates. This was partly offset by business growth costs, inflationary

pressures, costs related to Lloyds Wealth and a higher operating lease depreciation charge. The operating lease

depreciation charge increased given fleet growth, the depreciation of higher value vehicles and a second quarter

charge for reduced used car prices, partially offset by continued risk mitigation.

A remediation charge of £61 million was recognised by the Group in the first nine months of 2026 (nine months to

30 September 2025: £912 million) across a small number of programmes. The prior year included £800 million in

relation to the potential impact of motor finance commission arrangements, taken in the third quarter of 2025.

There have been no further charges relating to motor finance commission arrangements. The FCA published policy

statement PS26/3 in March 2026 with final rules for its motor finance redress schemes. Four challenges to the

FCA’s schemes have been raised, three by lenders and one by a consumer group. The implementation of the

schemes has now been delayed, as the Upper Tribunal hearing in respect of those challenges is listed for hearing in

the second half of February 2027. The Group will closely monitor the development of these challenges and

consider any potential impact on the existing provision. Despite these uncertainties, as well as broader

implications of any legal and/or regulatory developments, the current provision continues to represent the Group’s

current best estimate of the potential impact of the motor finance issue.

The impairment charge was £926 million (nine months to 30 September 2025: £619 million). The higher charge

compared to prior year is driven by adverse model updates alongside balance sheet growth in Retail, and lower

one-off provision releases in Commercial Banking. The charge includes a net charge from updated multiple

economic scenarios (MES) reflecting the impact of the deterioration in the economic outlook due to the Middle

East conflict. This is partially offset by the release of the £50 million post model adjustment for global tariff and

political disruption risks within Commercial Banking in the first quarter, now considered to be adequately captured

within macroeconomic assumptions and resulting modelled provisions. Credit performance remains strong and

stable across Retail and Commercial Banking with arrears low and stable in all portfolios.

The Group recognised a tax expense of £1,790 million in the first nine months of 2026 (nine months to

30 September 2025: £1,356 million).

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)

Balance sheet

As at 30 September 2026, total assets were £995,140 million, an increase of £51,068 million (31 December 2025:

£944,072 million).

Financial assets at amortised cost were £577,499 million, £23,827 million higher over the period (31 December

2025: £553,672 million), including increases in loans and advances to customers of £14,134 million, reverse

repurchase agreements of £3,866 million, debt securities of £3,465 million and loans and advances to banks of

£2,362 million. Loans and advances to customers included growth of £2,103 million in UK mortgages (net of the

impact of a securitisation of £1,841 million of primarily legacy Retail mortgages in the second quarter), alongside

£4,249 million of growth across credit cards, UK Retail unsecured loans, UK Motor Finance and the European retail

business. Lending balances also increased in Commercial Banking by £9,220 million in the first nine months of

2026, reflecting broad-based growth in Corporate and Institutional Banking and Business and Commercial Banking,

net of continued government-backed lending repayments. Reverse repurchase agreements and debt securities

increased in response to market conditions.

Financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss at £254,977 million increased by £14,564 million during the

period, largely due to increased assets held to back insurance and investment contract liabilities reflecting market

movements, alongside an increase within the banking business.

Derivative financial assets were £4,005 million higher at £23,732 million, driven by market movements. Cash and

balances at central banks decreased by £742 million to £55,919 million and financial assets at fair value through

other comprehensive income of £39,811 million increased by £3,491 million, reflecting changes in liquidity holdings.

Other assets were £5,923 million higher, largely reflecting increased settlement balances, vehicle fleet growth

within UK Motor Finance and growth in investment properties within Lloyds Living.

Total liabilities were £949,169 million, £52,964 million higher over the period (31 December 2025: £896,205

million). Customer deposits of £502,777 million increased by £6,320 million in the first nine months of 2026. Retail

deposits were down by £3,612 million, driven by lower Retail UK savings account balances largely in the first

quarter, due to disciplined pricing in the context of a competitive deposit market. Retail UK current account

balances were up £994 million, supported by the strength of the Group’s franchise and proposition. Commercial

Banking deposits increased by £9,611 million in the first nine months of 2026, with growth in targeted sectors.

Deposits from banks increased by £2,638 million to £8,417 million while repurchase agreements at amortised cost

increased by £7,267 million to £45,837 million.

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss increased by £4,543 million to £32,452 million as a result of

increased trading activity and derivative financial liabilities increased by £5,349 million to £21,481 million given

market movements. Liabilities arising from insurance and investment contracts increased by £9,027 million,

reflecting the corresponding increase in the assets held to back these liabilities. Other liabilities increased by

£3,837 million to £17,325 million, largely due to increased settlement balances. Debt securities in issue at amortised

cost increased by £14,206 million to £92,477 million due to new issuances in the period, while subordinated

liabilities decreased by £1,490 million to £8,404 million as a result of redemptions in the period.

Total equity of £45,971 million at 30 September 2026 decreased by £1,896 million (31 December 2025: £47,867

million). Profit for the period was more than offset by the impact of ordinary share buyback programmes in respect

of 2025 and the first half of 2026, the dividends paid in May 2026 and September 2026 and movements in the

cash flow hedge reserve resulting from higher longer-term rates.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)

Capital

The Group’s common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio reduced to 13.3% at 30 September 2026 (31 December 2025:

14.0%). Banking business profits for the first nine months of the year and the £100 million interim dividend received

from the Group’s Insurance business in June 2026 were more than offset by the impact of the ordinary share

buyback programme in respect of 2025 (announced in January 2026) that completed during the period, the

recognition of the full capital impact of the ordinary share buyback programme in respect of the first half of 2026

(announced in July 2026), the payment of the interim ordinary dividend in September 2026, the accrual for

foreseeable ordinary dividends, distributions on other equity instruments and an increase in risk-weighted assets.

The Group’s total capital ratio reduced to 17.9% at 30 September 2026 (31 December 2025: 18.9%) predominantly

reflecting AT1 and tier 2 instrument calls and the increase in risk-weighted assets. This was partly offset by tier 2

issuance during the period and the reclassification of the Group’s existing preference shares as tier 2 capital

following the AT1 consent solicitation undertaken in May 2026. The MREL ratio reduced to 31.2% at 30 September

2026 (31 December 2025: 32.2%) with the increase in MREL resources, reflecting the increase in other eligible

liabilities, more than offset by the increase in risk-weighted assets.

Risk-weighted assets increased by £11,849 million to £247,362 million at 30 September 2026 (31 December 2025:

£235,513 million), largely reflecting the impact of strong lending growth and market and other movements, partially

offset by continued optimisation including risk transfer and securitisation activity across Commercial Banking and

Retail.

The Group’s UK leverage ratio reduced to 5.0% at 30 September 2026 (31 December 2025: 5.4%), reflecting the

decrease in total tier 1 capital and an increase in the leverage exposure measure. The latter primarily reflects strong

lending growth, including off-balance sheet commitments, increases in securities financing transactions and an

increase in holdings of debt securities within the liquidity portfolio.

4. UK economic assumptions

Base case and MES economic assumptions

The Group’s base case economic scenario has been updated to reflect events through to the balance sheet date,

including ongoing geopolitical developments. The Group has included updated assumptions for energy prices and

conflict-related impacts in its quarter-end base case conditioning assumptions.

Incorporating the economic data published in the third quarter of 2026, the Group’s base case scenario is for an

ongoing expansion in gross domestic product (GDP), modest gains in residential and commercial property prices

alongside a small increase in the unemployment rate. Recent increases in energy prices imply increased inflationary

pressures, warranting an upward adjustment in Bank Rate of 25 basis points in November 2026. However, the

terminal rate assumption remains unchanged at 3.50%, reaching that level in the second half of 2028. Risks around

this base case economic view lie in both directions and are largely captured by the generation of alternative

economic scenarios.

The Group’s approach to generating alternative economic scenarios is set out in detail in note 21 to the financial

statements of the Group’s 2025 Annual Report and Accounts. The Group has taken into account the latest

available information at the reporting date in defining its base case scenario and generating alternative economic

scenarios. The scenarios include forecasts for key variables as of the third quarter of 2026. Actuals for this period,

or restatements of past data, may have since emerged prior to publication and have not been included.

UK economic assumptions – base case scenario by quarter

Key quarterly assumptions made by the Group in the base case scenario are shown below. GDP growth is

presented quarter-on-quarter. House price growth, commercial real estate price growth and CPI inflation are

presented year-on-year, i.e. from the equivalent quarter in the previous year. Unemployment rate and UK Bank

Rate are presented as at the end of each quarter.
