The non-bank financial institution reported a 25.39 percent year-on-year (YoY) rise in net profit to Tk 45.5 crore, reflecting resilience amid persistent macroeconomic headwinds.

The performance was driven by robust investment income, higher interest earnings, strategic portfolio diversification, and disciplined cost management. Earnings per share (EPS) increased to Tk 1.11 in 2025, according to audited financial statements.

Gross interest income grew 8.50 percent YoY to Tk 956 crore, supported by portfolio expansion and prudent lending.

Operating income rose 7.43 percent YoY to Tk 348.4 crore, bolstered by a sharp 93.29 percent increase in investment income to Tk 132.4 crore due to stronger treasury yields and active capital market strategies, said a press release.

Rizwan Dawood Shams, managing director of the NBFI, said, “2025 was a year of disciplined execution and strategic resilience for IPDC. Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment, we strengthened our earnings base through diversified income streams across various products and prudent cost management.”
