An announcement from Nova Ljubljanska Banka dd ( (DE:N1V2) ) is now available.
NLB Group has published its 2025 Annual Report, highlighting strong performance in a year marked by global challenges, lower interest rates, and gradual disinflation that supported robust demand for banking services. The group generated EUR 503.1 million in profit after tax, maintained solid profitability metrics such as a 15.2% ROTE, and upheld strong asset quality through prudent risk management.
Shareholders benefited from a total dividend payout of EUR 257.2 million in 2025, representing 50% of 2024 net profit and a 7.0% dividend yield, positioning NLB among the top dividend payers in its domestic and sector indices. The bank also strengthened its capital position and market standing with successive credit rating upgrades from S&P and Moody’s and successful issuances of EUR 500 million in senior preferred notes and EUR 300 million in perpetual Additional Tier 1 notes, underscoring strong investor confidence and supporting its next phase of growth.
The improved ESG ratings from Morningstar Sustainalytics and S&P Global further reinforce NLB Group’s profile as a sustainably oriented and well-capitalised institution. Management signalled continued focus on growth, innovation, and sustainability in 2026, aiming to leverage its enhanced capital base and ratings to accelerate strategic transformation while maintaining risk discipline in an uncertain global environment.
