Key numbers explained

• 42.19 EUR is the current share price; the +2.73% move today shows the percentage change in that single trading session.
• The trailing P/E ratio of 16.2 divides the current price by the last twelve months of earnings (2.61 EUR per share), a common way to see how the market values each euro of recent earnings.
• The forward P/E ratio of 10.8 uses expected future earnings instead of past earnings, which can make the stock look cheaper if earnings are expected to grow.
• The dividend yield of 2.61% tells you the annual dividend as a percentage of the current price; the ex-dividend date is May 21, 2026, and the company pays out 42% of its earnings as dividends.
• Beta of 0.68 suggests the share has historically moved less than the overall market, which is typical for large banks.
• Over the last 52 weeks, the price ranged from 29.01 to 43.37 EUR, and it is up 28.8% from a year ago.
• The price-to-book ratio of 1.35 compares the share price to the company's book value per share, a standard measure for financial stocks.

What to watch

• Banking stocks like CBK are sensitive to interest-rate changes, which can affect lending margins and the value of bond holdings.
