Thesis Summary

Shinhan entered the second half of 2026 with a 13.43% CET1 ratio, 12.4% ROE and improving fee-led earnings, while executing sizable repurchases and quarterly dividends. These results support the Value-Up strategy, but the balance of capital-market sensitivity.

This section is the 12-month view: analyst targets and the probability-weighted scenarios built from them. The intrinsic value at the top of this page answers a different question: what the business is worth today.

Bear CaseDownside scenario

$100.0024%

The downside case centers on slower domestic demand, rising corporate and vulnerable-borrower stress, adverse foreign-exchange or interest-rate movements, and capital erosion that constrains shareholder distributions or pushes CET1 below the 13% objective.

Base CaseCentral scenario

$100.0058%

Matches the consensus mean

The base case assumes CET1 remains above 13%, ROE normalizes within management's 10%-12% range and credit costs remain around the guided low-to-mid 40 basis points.

Bull CaseUpside scenario

$100.0018%

The upside case requires Shinhan to sustain ROE above its 10%-12% strategic range, preserve CET1 above 13%, maintain fee-income momentum and deliver the planned dividend and repurchase program without an asset-quality setback.

Scenarios are anchored to street consensus at the research date, with our probabilities and rationale.

Key Investment Merits

The 13.43% CET1 ratio at June 2026 exceeded the group's 13%-plus strategic objective and improved from the adjusted first-quarter level.
Second-quarter net income reached KRW 1.82 trillion, while ROE reached 12.4% and non-interest income increased 22.0% quarter over quarter.
The board authorized KRW 1.4 trillion of repurchases through October 2026, and maintaining KRW 740 quarterly dividends would produce KRW 2,960 of 2026 DPS.

Key Investment Risks

Management identified slow domestic-demand recovery, rising corporate credit risk and financial pressure on vulnerable customers as continuing asset-quality concerns.
Foreign-exchange volatility, elevated policy rates, a strong U.S. dollar and geopolitical uncertainty can affect capital, funding costs, securities valuations and credit quality.
The earnings mix remains sensitive to capital-market and actuarial conditions: second-quarter securities-related gains rose, while insurance-related income declined materially.

All scenarios are estimates and subject to change. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
