HSBC Holdings (00005.HK) announced its 2025 results, reporting revenue of $68.3 billion, an increase of $2.4 billion, or 4%, compared to 2024; net interest income was $34.8 billion, an increase of $2.1 billion compared to 2024. Reported pre-tax profit decreased by $2.4 billion to $29.9 billion, primarily due to a net adverse impact of $4.9 billion from items requiring attention compared to the previous year. The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio remained at 14.9%. The Board has approved a fourth dividend of $0.45 per share, bringing the total dividend for 2025 to $0.75 per share. For 2026, based on current expectations for policy rates, HSBC expects net interest income from its banking operations to reach at least $45 billion. The bank intends to maintain its medium-term target range for the Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio at 14% to 14.5%. Furthermore, the bank expects to restore the CET1 ratio to the target range through organic capital generation and by refraining from initiating any further share buybacks until the CET1 ratio returns to or exceeds the target range.
