Analysis · ITUB · Finance
Itaú Unibanco reported R$12.4 billion in recurring net income for Q2 2026, a 1% sequential gain, with a consolidated return on equity of 24.3%. The loan portfolio grew 2.7% quarter-over-quarter, and the financial margin with clients expanded 3.3%. However, the bank lowered its 2026 fee and insurance income growth forecast to 2.0%–5.0% from 5.0%–9.0%, citing higher capital-market volatility. The guidance cut, disclosed just two days after the preliminary Q2 results, adds a cautious note to an otherwise solid quarter.
