Lloyds Banking Group plc reported its interim management statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, delivering statutory profit before tax of £6,625 million, an increase of 42% year-on-year. Performance was driven by a 13% expansion in total statutory income to £16,084 million and an underlying net interest income rise of 10% to £11,084 million, bolstered by structural hedge reinvestment gains and banking net interest margin expansion to 3.21%. A sharp decline in remediation charges (down 93% to £61 million) counterbalanced an increase in underlying impairment charges to £930 million and operating lease depreciation of £1,261 million. The Group reaffirmed its full-year 2026 guidance, targeting a return on tangible equity above 16%, capital generation exceeding 200 bps, and a CET1 ratio payout down to approximately 13.0%.
The report shows strong core margin resilience, effective structural hedge management, and an absence of incremental motor finance remediation charges, confirming solid capital returns.
