China Merchants Bank Posts Steady 2025 Preliminary Results With Asset and Deposit Growth

An announcement from China Merchants Bank Co ( (HK:3968) ) is now available.

China Merchants Bank has released unaudited preliminary financial data for 2025 indicating broadly stable performance, with operating income essentially flat at RMB 337.5 billion and net profit attributable to shareholders edging up 1.21% year-on-year to RMB 150.2 billion, while net non-interest income declined 3.38%. Despite a slight drop in return on weighted average equity to 13.44%, the bank delivered solid balance sheet expansion, with total assets rising 7.56% to RMB 13.07 trillion, customer loans increasing 5.37% and customer deposits up 8.13%, supporting a 4.75% increase in net assets per share; the figures, which remain subject to audit and final confirmation in the 2025 annual report, suggest steady growth in the bank’s core lending and deposit franchise, albeit with some pressure on non-interest income and profitability ratios that investors will monitor closely.
