As a result of the acquisition of Spar Nord completed on 28 May 2025, the Nykredit Group’s H1 Interim Report 2025 has been changed.
Spar Nord has been included in the Nykredit Group’s H1 Interim Financial Statements for the period from 28 May to 30 June 2025. The Nykredit Group’s full-year profit guidance includes Spar Nord’s financial results for the period from 28 May to 31 December 2025.
Michael Rasmussen, Group Chief Executive, comments on the Nykredit Group’s H1 Interim Financial Statements and guidance upgrade:
- We are pleased to present a highly satisfactory H1 interim profit after tax of DKK 6,257 million for the Nykredit Group. At the same time, we are raising our full-year guidance to a profit after tax of DKK 11.00-12.00 billion.
- The upgrade is driven by the Nykredit Group’s strong core business performance, which is partly due to increasing net interest and fee income following continued high demand from existing customers and customer growth in all business areas. Having recorded continued growth in bank and mortgage lending to personal as well as business customers, we have captured higher market shares across business areas. At the same time, our customers are financially robust, and consequently, loan impairments remain low.
- The Nykredit Group’s H1 interim financial results are also impacted by the fact that Spar Nord too had a very satisfactory first six months of the year. However, the Group’s results only include Spar Nord’s financial results as from the closing of the acquisition in May to the end of the reporting period. In June, Spar Nord delivered a solid performance and recorded high customer activity, which also demonstrates that Spar Nord is a strong financial provider with highly skilled people. I look forward to presenting financial results that fully include Spar Nord.
- The merger of Nykredit Bank and Spar Nord is progressing according to plan, and we still expect Nykredit Bank and Spar Nord to have completed the merger in the spring of 2026. We are two strong banks joining forces to become a customer-owned alternative to the largest listed banks. Together, we will focus on lasting customer relationships, a strong physical and digital presence as well as sound advisory expertise, while leveraging our customer-ownership structure. Customers of Spar Nord are already today experiencing the benefits of banking with a customer-owned bank. Once we have merged, all customers across Spar Nord and Nykredit will have access to the same value propositions, prices and benefits.
- In January, we made Totalkredit loans cheaper for new and existing customers, and as a result Totalkredit recorded significant growth in lending and customers in the first six months of the year. With our KundeKroner benefits programme, Totalkredit is able to offer the lowest prices on home loans in most scenarios, and, based on a strong partnership, we want to offer attractive and transparent home financing to homeowners across Denmark, regardless of their financial position or postcode. Partnerships are a crucial part of Nykredit’s Group strategy. We will therefore continue to develop our highly valued partnerships; together, we are able to offer our customers the best possible services and compete more effectively in financial markets.
