Zenith Bank Plc has posted a profit before tax (PBT) of N625.63 billion for the half-year ended June 30, 2025.
In a filing on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NGX), the company’s board approved an interim dividend of N1.25 per share, representing a 25% increase from the N1.00 paid in H1 2024.
Gross earnings rose 20% year-on-year to N2.5 trillion, driven by a 60% surge in interest income to N1.8 trillion, up from N1.1 trillion in H1 2024.
The company attributed the growth to strategic repricing of risk assets and effective treasury management.
