Family Bank’s 9-Month Profits After Tax Now At Ksh 3.5 Billion

Family Bank Group has posted a 56% increase in Profit After Tax to KES 3.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, up from KES 2.3 billion in the same period last year.

Sustained growth in interest income, a strong balance sheet and prudent cost management drove the performance.

Total assets grew by 24.1% to KES 202.5 billion, driven by an increase in investments in Government securities to KES 39.0 billion. The loan book expanded by 10.1% to KES 103.7 billion, while total interest income grew by 21.2%, largely due to interest on loans and income from investments in government securities. The Bank closed the 9 months with a remarkable KES 10.9 billion net interest income.

Total non-funded income grew by 14.4%, driven by increased customer transactions, sustained investment in digital solutions, and a focus on partnerships targeting SME lending.

Speaking during the investor briefing forum, Family Bank CEO Nancy Njau attributed the strong performance to the Bank’s effective execution of its strategic priorities

“This robust performance is in line with our strategic focus, prioritising innovation, digital transformation, customer-centricity, and strategic partnerships aimed at scaling our SME lending capabilities. This positions Family Bank as the Preferred Bank for Biashara as we work towards our planned listing at the NSE in 2026. As we go to the final quarter of the year, close of the year, we continue to place our customers at the fore and drive sustainable shareholder value,”she said.

Customer deposits grew by 15.3% to KES 146.8 billion, underlining customers’ continued trust and confidence in the Bank’s financial stability and service delivery.

Operating expenses increased by 33%, primarily driven by a moderate growth in staff costs and a prudent provisioning for loan losses, which rose to KES 1.3 billion in line with the Bank’s risk management approach.

Core capital stood at KES 19.6 billion, up from KES 14.7 billion, signalling strong capital adequacy in light of the progressive core capital requirements. The liquidity ratio also remained well above the statutory requirement of 20% at 54.4% underscoring the Bank’s strong balance sheet and capital adequacy.
