Zenith Bank Plc released its unaudited nine months financial results for the period ended September 30, 2025, showing a resilient performance amidst a challenging operating environment.

Despite a strong growth in interest income, the bank’s profit after tax (PAT) declined by 7.6% year-on-year to N764.20 billion, driven by a sharp drop in non-interest income and elevated credit impairment charges.

Interest income rose by 40.8% year-on-year to N2.74 trillion, driven by solid gains across major income lines.

Net interest income advanced by 50.4% year-on-year to N1.93 trillion, supported by the high-yield environment.

Non-interest income declined by 37.5% year-on-year to N534.78 billion, driven by lower trading and investment gains.
