Banco Bradesco SA ( (BBD) ) has issued an announcement.

On February 13, 2026, Banco Bradesco responded to a request from Brazil’s securities regulator CVM after media reported that the bank projects 15%–20% growth in its direct agribusiness portfolio in 2026, currently estimated at R$120 billion. The bank said these projections are already included in guidance released on February 5, 2026, and therefore did not warrant disclosure as a separate material fact.

Bradesco emphasized that the agribusiness growth figures are projections subject to risks and uncertainties and do not guarantee future performance. It also reaffirmed its commitment to disclose any material facts or changes in projections in line with CVM Resolution 44/2021, as the regulator reminded the bank of its duty to promptly update the market and its reference form when providing quantitative guidance.

The most recent analyst rating on (BBD) stock is a Buy with a $4.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Banco Bradesco SA stock, see the BBD Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on BBD Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, BBD is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weaker financial performance quality—especially highly volatile and negative recent operating/free cash flow and the sharp revenue decline—despite ongoing profitability. Offsetting factors include constructive technical momentum, a reasonable value/dividend setup, and an earnings call narrative supporting continued growth and improving efficiency, albeit with cost and capital/regulatory risks.
