PNC

In the past six months (March 2026 - September 2026), PNC's stock climbed 18.4% over 52 weeks and was up 17.7% year-to-date in 2026, though it was down 6.3% in the month leading up to September 16, 2026. Key events include strong Q2 2026 results that surpassed estimates with record revenue and net interest income growth, leading to a raised full-year revenue outlook and an increased average loan growth forecast for 2026 to 12.5%. In July 2026, PNC declared a quarterly cash dividend of $2.00 per share. In September 2026, the company reaffirmed its Q3 and full-year guidance, citing resilient consumer spending, broad commercial lending demand, and momentum in expansion markets, while outlining strategic priorities such as deepening customer relationships, expanding international capabilities, investing in AI, and continuing branch expansion. The acquisition of FirstBank, which closed in January 2026, contributed to strong loan growth and met expected financial measures. However, there was frequent insider selling by multiple executives in the first half of 2026.
