Berhan Bank Reports 77% Profit Surge to 5.06 Billion Birr

Berhan Bank reported pre-tax earnings of 5.06 billion birr for 2025/26, a 76.9 percent increase that underlies the rounded 77 percent growth in its announcement. The results were presented at the bank's annual performance review.

Revenue and capital expand

Revenue rose 46.6 percent to 12.37 billion birr. Customer deposits grew 25.6 percent, while paid-up capital increased 47.5 percent to 6.33 billion birr. The bank also reported foreign-exchange generation of US$407.18 million.

The figures describe different aspects of performance: pre-tax earnings measure profitability before tax, revenue measures income, and paid-up capital represents shareholder funding. They should not be treated as interchangeable measures of cash available for distribution.
