FDH Bank plc says the anticipated profit after-tax of between K140 billion and K151 billion for the year ended December 31 2025 reflects continued commitment to growth, innovation and the delivery of competitive financial solutions.
The growth represents a staggering 92 to 104 percent jump from the previous year’s K74 billion, according to a cautionary statement.
FDH Bank plc managing director Noel Mkulichi said despite the anticipated positive performance, the operating environment remains challenging characterised by foreign exchange shortages and elevated inflationary pressures.
“The bank has, however, implemented prudent strategies to mitigate these challenges and sustain profitability,” he said.
Mkulichi said the Malawi Stock Exchange-listed bank recorded a strong performance in 2025 driven by robust growth in both public and private sector credit demand.
In a trading statement on Friday, FDH Bank company secretary Juliano Kanyongolo cautioned that the figures have not been reviewed or reported on by external auditors.
In August this year, FDH Bank plc acquired a 98.8 percent stake in Ecobank Mozambique SA through a definitive agreement with Ecobank Transnational Incorporated, the parent company of Ecobank Group.
The remaining 1.13 percent stake is held by Fundo Para O Fomento De Habitação.
FDH Bank plc, established on July 18 2008 as a subsidiary of FDH Financial Holdings Limited by business mogul and philanthropist Thomson Mpinganjira, is now among the three local banks that have subsidiaries across the borders.
