Citigroup’s net income reached $5.245 billion in the third quarter of 2026, equivalent to $2.85 per diluted share, while revenue increased 8% from a year earlier to $23.845 billion.

The results compared with net income of $3.752 billion, or $1.86 per share, and revenue of $22.090 billion in the year-earlier quarter.

Citigroup returned $4.1 billion to common shareholders through share repurchases and dividends during the quarter.

“Our performance in the quarter, which included the best third-quarter revenue in a decade, positive operating leverage and meaningful improvement in our returns, reflects the continued disciplined and consistent execution of our strategy,” Citigroup Chair and CEO Jane Fraser said.

“Services delivered another standout quarter, up 15%, with momentum in every driver,” Fraser said.
