Danske Bank Reports Solid H1 2025 Results with DKK 11.2 Billion Net Profit, Business Customer Profit Up 23%

Danske Bank A/S reported a net profit of DKK 11.2 billion for the first half of 2025, reflecting solid financial results driven by strong customer activity and credit quality. This performance aligns with the bank's expectations and strategic focus on key growth areas. The bank experienced a 23% increase in profit before tax in its Business Customers segment, amounting to DKK 5,085 million, compared to DKK 4,140 million in the same period last year. This growth was attributed primarily to loan impairment reversals, although net fee income increases were partially offset by lower income from leasing operations. In contrast, the Large Corporates & Institutions segment saw a 9% decrease in profit before tax, totaling DKK 4,544 million. Despite this, the bank improved its market position in cash management and maintained leadership within sustainable finance. Additionally, Danske Bank's Northern Ireland operations reported an 18% increase in profit before tax, reaching DKK 1,110 million, attributed to growth in residential mortgage lending volumes and increased market share. For the full year 2025, Danske Bank maintains its guidance, expecting a net profit in the range of DKK 21-23 billion, although this outlook remains subject to economic conditions.
