The bank's EPS is anticipated to bottom out in 2025, with outsized growth of 20-30% projected for 2026-2027, putting ING on track to reach its 14% return on equity target.

ING's main markets are the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium, with only 5% of loans made in North America. Recent Euro strength, coupled with ECB rate cuts, will likely result in ING marginally missing the Q2 2025 analyst EPS consensus. Even so, ING trades at only 9.8x its 2025-26 earnings, dropping to a 7.9x multiple if 2027 profitability targets are met, making it compelling versus large-cap European financials.

ING Groep derived 64% of its Q1 2025 revenue from net interest income - a key concern during ECB rate cuts. The bank reported weaker net income in Q1 2025, impacted by higher expenses, lower NII, and a normalizing cost of risk. Even so, the shares have outperformed European financial peers, boosted by a €2 billion announcement.
