An update from Bank of China ( (HK:3988) ) is now available.
Bank of China reported first-quarter 2026 operating income of RMB178.8 billion, up 8.44% year on year, with profit attributable to equity holders rising 4.17% to RMB56.6 billion. Total assets expanded 3.22% since year-end 2025 to RMB39.6 trillion, while capital and reserves attributable to equity holders increased 1.28% to RMB3.1 trillion.
The group’s net cash flow from operating activities swung to an inflow of RMB196.2 billion from an outflow a year earlier, mainly due to higher cash inflows from banks and other financial institutions. Despite solid profit growth, basic and diluted earnings per share declined 4.68% and annualised return on weighted average equity fell by 0.63 percentage point to 8.46%, pointing to pressure on per-share profitability even as overall scale and liquidity improved.
