VZ Holding lifts profit, assets and dividend on strong client growth

VZ Holding AG ( (CH:VZN) ) has shared an update.

VZ Holding AG reported a strong 2025 financial year, with total income up 9.4% to CHF 574.5 million and net profit rising 7.9% to CHF 236.4 million, driven mainly by a 15% increase in income from assets under management. The group’s client base expanded by 12.7% to 94,433, assets under management grew 16.6% to CHF 61.8 billion, and net new money climbed to CHF 5.8 billion, underpinning future revenue potential.

Advisory income rose 13.4% as more private individuals and companies sought VZ’s services, partially offsetting a 10.1% decline in banking income due to lower interest rates. The firm’s low‑risk balance sheet is reflected in a high combined CET1 ratio of 28.4%, and the board will propose raising the dividend from CHF 2.73 to CHF 2.95 per share, while long‑standing director Albrecht Langhart will not stand for re‑election, leaving a six‑member board in place.

The most recent analyst rating on (CH:VZN) stock is a Hold with a CHF157.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on VZ Holding AG stock, see the CH:VZN Stock Forecast page.
