Vietbank (UPCoM: VBB) reported a pre-tax profit of nearly VND 352 billion in Q3/2025, reflecting a 14% year-on-year decline. This decrease is attributed to lower net interest income and higher operating expenses, as indicated in the bank's consolidated financial statements.

In Q3, Vietbank’s net interest income dipped by 3%, reaching approximately VND 828 billion.

Non-interest income streams showed mixed performance. Service fees surged by 27% to VND 59 billion, while foreign exchange gains climbed 36% to VND 25 billion.

Conversely, securities trading shifted from profit to a loss of VND 1.7 billion, and other operations also reported losses.

Additionally, a 26% rise in operating expenses to VND 473 billion contributed to a 20% decline in net operating profit, which stood at over VND 435 billion.

Despite a 37% reduction in credit risk provisions to just over VND 83 billion in Q3, pre-tax profit still fell by 14% to nearly VND 352 billion.

For the first nine months of the year, Vietbank’s pre-tax profit exceeded VND 866 billion, a modest 6% increase year-on-year, primarily due to lower risk provisions. Compared to the 2025 target of VND 1,750 billion in pre-tax profit, Vietbank has achieved 49% of its goal.
