Memo

ΕΘΝΙΚΗ ΤΡΑΠΕΖΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ Α.Ε. (ETE.AT). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2025-12-31.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 2.7 bn EUR in 2025; YoY growth -5.4%; net margin 42.5%; ROE 13.3%.

The estimated value range is 9.84–14.90 EUR per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: high); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 12.24 EUR, the price of 16.80 EUR leaves a potential of -27.1% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -37.2% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

Insufficient data for a verdict (indicators available: 3 of at least 6; score weight coverage: 22.9% of at least 60%).

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

What supports the thesis

  • Net margin: 42.5%
  • Shareholder yield (distributions): 4.9%

What contradicts it

  • The price is above the estimated value range

In brief

Εθνική Τράπεζα is one of Greece's largest banks, active in retail and corporate banking, asset management through Εθνική Asset Management and banking services in Cyprus and North Macedonia. Amid the Athens exchange rally of 2025, the bank remains a benchmark of the Greek banking sector, with international assets of around 3.4 bn EUR 1.

SWOT

Strengths

  • A leading position in the domestic mutual fund market through the asset management subsidiary, with a large client base 1.
  • An important role on the Athens exchange, with a significant share of equity trading 1.
  • An extensive branch network in Greece and capital and liquidity ratios reported at high levels 1.

Weaknesses

  • The brokerage subsidiary's market share fell in 2025 compared with the prior year 1.
  • International presence is small and has partly been withdrawn, with some portfolios classified as held for sale 1.
  • Dependence on the Greek market exposes the bank to the performance of the local economy and banking sector 1.

Opportunities
