Société Générale Shares Surge, Nearing 50% Gain Over One Year
Société Générale's stock is up in the mid-afternoon as today's session marks the detachment of the balance of the dividend. The bank operates within a generally well-oriented CAC 40 and ranks in the upper part of the standings. A publication this Monday further details the group's bond schedule.
Weekly Rebound Brings Stock Above Its Three Moving Averages
The stock is up 1.2% at €71.48, bringing its gain to 3.9% for the week and nearly 50% over the year. The stock is among the top gainers in the CAC 40, as the index itself is up 0.42% in the session. The price now moves above the MM20 (€68.63), MM50 (€68.21), and MM200 (€63.74), with a 12.14% gap from the latter, illustrating the underlying momentum. The RSI at 57 remains in the neutral zone, with no signs of exhaustion. The stock is approaching the resistance identified at €74.66, after having consolidated in May around the support at €65.72. Over three months, the performance remains slightly negative (-3.22%), reflecting the stabilization phase after the first quarter accounts were published at the end of April.
Dividend Detachment and Early Redemption of a Tier 2 Bond on the Agenda
The balance of the dividend payment will occur on June 3. This marks the first concrete step in shareholder remuneration for the fiscal year 2025. Concurrently, the bank published a notice on Monday regarding the early redemption of a Tier 2 bond (ISIN FR0014002QE8) scheduled for June 30, 2026, which is part of the ordinary management of the group's regulatory capital structure. Based on the consensus of surveyed analysts, the stock is priced at approximately 9.3 times the earnings for the current fiscal year and 8.0 times those of the following year.
