On May 5, 2026, Itaú Unibanco filed a Form 6-K in the U.S. disclosing its “Risk and Capital Management – Pillar 3” report for the first quarter of 2026, prepared under Brazilian Central Bank Resolution BCB No. 54 to align local rules with Basel recommendations.

It also notes that the Basel index stood at 15.2% at December 31, 2025, declining 1.2 percentage points from September 2025 due to dividends, interest on equity and share buybacks amid RWA growth, indicating disciplined capital management while maintaining resilience for stakeholders.

Spark’s Take on ITUB Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, ITUB is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (growth and ROE) but held back by leverage and cash-flow volatility. Technicals are supportive with a strong uptrend, though momentum looks somewhat stretched. Valuation is favorable given the moderate P/E and high dividend yield, and the latest earnings call reinforced constructive fundamentals with cautious but reasonable 2026 guidance.
