In Q3/2025, VietABank recorded a net interest income of nearly VND 639 billion, a 38% increase year-on-year. Notably, other operating activities yielded a profit of approximately VND 75 billion, 3.6 times higher than the same period last year.

Conversely, some business segments experienced declines, such as a 35% drop in service income and losses in foreign exchange and securities investment trading.

However, the bank reduced its operating expenses by 20% to just over VND 236 billion this quarter. As a result, net profit from business operations surged 2.1 times year-on-year, reaching nearly VND 498 billion.

During this period, VietABank set aside VND 162 billion for credit risk provisions, compared to only VND 6 billion in the same quarter last year. The bank attributed this increase to the growth in outstanding loans. Despite this, VietABank still reported a pre-tax profit of nearly VND 336 billion, up 46%.

For the first nine months of the year, VietABank achieved a pre-tax profit of over VND 1,050 billion, a 32% increase year-on-year.

Compared to the 2025 target of VND 1,306 billion in pre-tax profit, the bank has accomplished nearly 80% of its goal by the end of Q3.
