The traded volumes remained high, accounting for 0.33% of the capital, approximately 2.5 million shares.

As of January 2, 2026, Société Générale had repurchased 1.4% of its capital, thus completing 68.7% of the previously announced 1 billion euro share buyback program. This buyback plan, initiated in November 2025, continues to mechanically support the stock's valuation and reflects the management's confidence in the group's prospects. This operation is part of an exceptional capital distribution policy that enhances the attractiveness of the stock to institutional investors. Additionally, on January 7, Rothschild & Co Redburn initiated coverage with a buy rating and an ambitious price target of 85 euros, representing a potential increase of 23.4% from the current price. Deutsche Bank also maintains a buy recommendation with a target of 68 euros, which has now been reached. The group will publish its annual results for 2025 on February 6, a crucial date to confirm the profitability trajectory initiated.
