FE Report
Bangladesh Industrial Finance Company Limited (BIFC) reported a higher loss for the year ended December 2025 compared to the previous year. Its first-quarter performance this year also remained weak, highlighting the prolonged financial distress facing the non-bank financial institution (NBFI).
According to a price-sensitive disclosure, the company's loss per share (EPS) widened to Tk 7.38 for 2025 from Tk 6.66 in the previous year.
Its net asset value (NAV) per share further deteriorated to negative Tk 133.58 as of December last year from negative Tk 126.11 a year earlier.
The net operating cash flow per share (NOCFPS) stood at negative Tk 0.03 for 2025 against negative Tk 0.01 in 2024.
The board of directors recommended no dividend for 2025. The record date has been fixed for July 30, while the date, time and venue of the annual general meeting (AGM) will be announced later.
BIFC has remained one of the country's most troubled listed NBFI, weighed down by a high volume of non-performing loans,
weak loan recoveries and hefty provisioning requirements. The persistent losses have pushed the company's equity into deep negative territory, while auditors in recent years have repeatedly flagged concerns over its financial health and ability to continue as a going concern.
For the January-March quarter, BIFC reported a loss per share of Tk 1.81, compared with Tk 1.65 in the corresponding period of the previous year.
