FCMB Group extends deadline for release of Q3 2026 financial results

FCMB Group Plc has notified the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX), shareholders and the investing public of a potential delay in the release of its nine-month unaudited financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2026.

FCMB Group Plc has notified Nigerian regulators and shareholders that it will delay the release of its Q3 2026 unaudited financial statements. The company expects to publish the report by December 29, 2026, instead of the originally scheduled October 30, 2026 deadline. The extension is due to an ongoing interim audit of its largest subsidiary, First City Monument Bank Limited.

FCMB Group's half-year results for June 30, 2026, showed a 99% year-on-year increase in profit before tax, reaching N157.3 billion. This growth was driven by a 31% rise in interest income and a 22% increase in earning assets. The company's recapitalization, which raised N500 billion, helped meet the Central Bank of Nigeria's new minimum capital requirements for an international banking license.
