Zenith Bank’s board of directors has approved an interim dividend of N1.25 per share for the first half of 2025, a 25% increase from N1.00 in the first half of 2024. To determine the total dividend payout, we need to know the total number of shares outstanding.
According to the bank’s financial reports, Zenith Bank’s profit after tax for the first half of 2025 was N532 billion, with earnings per share at N12.95. The bank’s strong performance was driven by a 20% year-on-year surge in gross earnings, which rose from N2.1 trillion to N2.5 trillion.
Key Highlights of Zenith Bank’s H1 2025 Results:
– Gross Earnings: N2.5 trillion, up 20% year-on-year
– Profit Before Tax: N625.629 billion
– Interim Dividend per Share: N1.25, a 25% increase from H1 2024
– Payment Date: October 10, 2025, to shareholders whose names appear on the register of members as at October 3, 2025
