- 

Sampath Group has delivered the strongest financial performance in its history for the year ended December 31, 2025, recording a Profit Before Tax (PBT) of Rs 53.0 billion and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of Rs 32.6 billion. This marks year-on-year growth of 8% and 13% respectively, solidifying the Group's position as one of Sri Lanka's most resilient and forward-thinking financial institutions.

The Group also surpassed a significant milestone with its total asset base crossing the Rs 2 trillion markup 12% from 2024-reflecting strong credit expansion and prudent portfolio management.

The Sampath Bank, the Group's flagship entity, continued to be the main engine of growth, posting its highest-ever profitability with a PBT of Rs 49.3 billion and PAT of Rs 30.2 billion-up 5% and 11% respectively. Adjusted for the one-off gains from the 2024 restructuring of Sri Lanka's international sovereign bonds, both PBT and PAT grew an impressive 22%.

Driven by strong credit momentum, the Bank's gross loan book expanded by Rs 259 billion (27%), reaching Rs 1.2 trillion by end-2025. Deposits rose 12% to Rs 1.65 trillion, underscoring the Bank's trusted franchise and continued market confidence.
