Sydbank A/S ( (GB:0MGE) ) just unveiled an update.

Sydbank has issued its outlook for 2026, projecting profit after tax in the range of DKK 3.5-4.0bn, based on expectations of moderate growth in the Danish economy and unchanged central bank deposit rates. The bank notes that the guidance is subject to uncertainty, including financial market conditions and macroeconomic developments that could influence impairment charges.

The board has approved a new share buyback programme of DKK 1.1bn aimed at reducing the bank’s share capital and optimising its capital structure in line with internal capital targets. The buyback, to be executed by Danske Bank under EU Safe Harbour rules between 2 March 2026 and 31 January 2027, follows prior shareholder authorization and comes as Sydbank reports a CET1 ratio of 15.8% and a total capital ratio of 19.2% at year-end 2025.
