Bank of America reports Q3 2026 earnings miss and modest revenue growth

Bank of America posted third‑quarter 2026 net income of $6.9 billion and diluted EPS of $0.91, both below analysts' expectations. Revenue rose 3% year‑over‑year to $30.0 billion, while adjusted net income, excluding a $1.2 billion regulatory settlement, was $8.1 billion with adjusted EPS of $1.08. Tangible book value per share increased from $26.39 to $29.14, a 5.1% annual rise, and the shares fell about 4% to $51.72 after the release.

The earnings miss and weaker revenue may pressure the stock, as noted by analysts who track tangible book value growth. The company’s adjusted earnings also fell short of the $1.13 EPS estimate, suggesting tighter profit expectations for the next quarter.
