Bulls say / Bears say

Leonteq returned to profit in the first half of 2026, with net profit up 37% to CHF12.7 million. Operating expenses fell 10% year on year, and management kept its guidance for a positive full-year pre-tax result. (Leonteq)
The platform is gaining traction while Leonteq broadens beyond more market-sensitive trading income. Platform turnover rose 10% to CHF15.9 billion, AMC volumes reached CHF2.4 billion, quantitative strategies more than doubled to 705, and retail-flow turnover rose 15-fold to CHF170 million. (Leonteq)
The end of all pending FINMA proceedings removes a major constraint on client confidence and management attention. Leonteq also held a 16.5% CET1 ratio and said it intends to consider a share buyback in early 2027 if capital remains comfortably above 15%. (FINMA, Leonteq)
The recovery has weaker operating quality than the headline profit suggests. Total operating income fell 10% year on year and net trading income dropped 66%, while profit before tax declined 13% despite the rise in net profit. (Reuters)
Governance and reputational risk have not disappeared with the regulatory closure. In April, the board withdrew discharge proposals for the board and executive committee covering 2024 and 2025, pending the final review of supervisory measures. (Leonteq)
Leonteq remains exposed to market volatility through its capital requirements. Risk-weighted assets rose to CHF3.97 billion from CHF3.76 billion at year-end, while the CET1 ratio slipped to 16.5% from 16.9%, which could constrain the planned buyback if conditions worsen. (Leonteq, Leonteq)
