Analyst projections of the future price of Barclays stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

First-half pre-tax profit rose 17% to £6.1bn and return on tangible equity reached 14.8%. Barclays also raised its 2026 income target to about £31.5bn, signalling stronger operating momentum. (Reuters)
Barclays distributed £2.3bn to shareholders in the first half, including a £1bn buyback, while its 14.3% CET1 ratio remained above its target range. This gives investors meaningful near-term capital returns backed by a solid capital position. (Barclays)
Investment banking fee income rose 24% in the first half, and Barclays is adding Asia-Pacific bankers to pursue advisory and M&A work. That expansion could broaden its fee income and support growth beyond its established markets. (Reuters)
First-half credit impairment charges increased to £1.4bn from £1.1bn a year earlier, lifting the loan loss rate to 62 basis points from 52. A £228m single-name charge shows that sizeable borrower losses can weigh on earnings. (Barclays)
Barclays had provided £430m for the UK motor finance redress scheme by the end of June, but legal challenges have left the scheme’s outcome and timing uncertain. The eventual cost could therefore differ from the current provision. (Barclays)
Barclays expects regulatory changes to add about £19bn–£26bn to risk-weighted assets in 2027, including Basel 3.1 and a US consumer-bank model change. That could absorb capital and reduce flexibility for lending or shareholder returns, although the final effect remains uncertain. (Barclays)
