The latest update is out from Sparebanken Ost ( (GB:0G45) ).
Sparebanken Øst reported a strong full-year 2025 performance, delivering profit after tax of NOK 522.8 million and a return on equity of 11.77 percent, above its long-term 10 percent target. The bank highlighted its solid capital position under the standardised approach, combined with very low loan losses and non-performing commitments, reinforcing its status as one of Norway’s more robust banks.
The board has proposed a cash dividend of NOK 6.90 per equity certificate, totalling NOK 143 million, alongside NOK 357.3 million earmarked for charitable gifts, reflecting confident capital strength and stakeholder returns. Fourth-quarter results were softer, with profit of NOK 97.2 million, lower net interest income and continued negative lending growth amid low credit demand and intense competition, though cost control and minimal credit losses support a resilient earnings profile.
