KUALA LUMPUR: Malayan Banking Bhd's (Maybank) net profit rose four per cent to RM2.63 billion in the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 (2Q25) from RM2.53 billion a year ago, as higher income offset rising provisions for bad debts.

Quarterly revenue slipped 0.5 per cent to RM17.08 billion from RM17.17 billion previously, the bank's filing to Bursa Malaysia showed.

Earnings per share came in higher at 21.75 sen compared to 20.96 sen in 2Q24.

The bank declared a first interim cash dividend of 30 sen per share, with the entitlement and payment dates to be announced in due course.
