What the Analysts think about HSBC Holdings

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for HSBC Holdings stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

HSBC raised its 2025 full-year net interest income (NII) forecast to $43 billion, reflecting management’s confidence in sustained interest margins as rate cuts slow in major markets such as Hong Kong and the UK. (Reuters)
In Q3 2025, HSBC saw a 15% increase in net interest income, reaching $8.8 billion, and a 12% rise in net fee income to $3.5 billion, driven by strong wealth management results in Asia, especially Hong Kong. (Financial Times)
HSBC’s common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio was a robust 14.5% as of September 30, 2025, well above regulatory requirements, offering significant capital for strategic initiatives. (Refinitiv via Reuters)
Pretax profit for Q3 2025 fell 14% to $7.3 billion, missing analyst estimates of $7.66 billion, with earnings impacted by legal provisions and asset writedowns. (Reuters)
The bank recorded $1.4 billion in legal provisions for past issues, $5 billion in asset writedowns related to China, and $900 million in provisions for bad loans, all of which reduced profitability and increased earnings volatility. (Reuters)
HSBC suspended share buybacks for three quarters to maintain capital for its £10 billion purchase of Hang Seng Bank, leading to nearly a 5% drop in its share price as investors responded to lowered shareholder returns. (Reuters)
