$BACK. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. reported a strong Q1 2026 with revenue at
$17.23B (+14% YoY) and EPS of
$17.55, beating estimates. Net income reached
$5.63B (+19% YoY), supported by strength across trading and investment banking.
The key driver was investment banking, where fees surged +48%, signaling a clear rebound in deal activity, including M&A and renewed capital markets issuance. This points to improving risk appetite and a healthier deal cycle.
The result ranks among the strongest quarters outside the 2021 peak, highlighting a broader recovery in capital markets activity.
