Why is Grupo Cibest S.A. American Depositary Shares (each representing four (4) Preferred Shares) (CIB) stock moving?
Grupo Cibest reported Q3 2026 results with net income of COP 2.08 trillion, down 23.81% from the prior quarter and 2.97% from 3Q25, while annualized ROE remained solid at 21.75%. Portfolio changes are the main structural story: the Banistmo sale closed Jun 30 for USD 1.418 billion, and Nequi was separated into its own financing company on Sep 1, which management frames as focusing growth on strategic markets. The stock had already drifted from about 98 on Oct 23 to 92 by early November and rebounded to 94.91 on Nov 9. On Nov 10 it gapped down 9.5% at the open to 85.88 on roughly 912,001 shares, about 3.5 times the 30-day average, and recovered to close at 91.15 (-4.0%), a sharp but partial intraday reversal. The quarterly and year-over-year earnings decline weighs against the ROE strength, and the transcript provided contains no call detail, so the reaction is not yet explained by management commentary.

How it makes money
Most of its income is net interest income, meaning the gap between what it earns on loans and what it pays on deposits. Its loans cover consumer, mortgage, corporate and SME lending, mainly in Colombia. On top of that it earns fees from payments, cards, investment banking, brokerage, fund management and digital services such as Nequi and Wompi, plus leasing. Bancolombia is by far the largest contributor, with Central American banks adding the rest.
