Explore Community Narratives BIT:PRO Earnings & Revenue History as at Feb 2026 ## Profit swings across 2025 - Banca Profilo moved from a net loss of €0.9 million in Q2 2025 to net income of €8.1 million in Q3 and €0.6 million in Q4, with trailing 12 month net income at €10.0 million by Q4 2025. - What stands out for a more bullish view is how the 31.8% yearly earnings rise sits alongside mixed quarterly figures. Trailing 12 month net income moved between €11.5 million in Q3 2025 and €10.0 million in Q4. This supports the idea of healthier profitability while still reminding you that results can be uneven from one quarter to the next. - Supporters pointing to improving profitability can reference the 17.2% net profit margin over the last 12 months compared with 12.4% the prior year, even though some single quarters like Q2 2025 still showed a loss. - At the same time, the longer term 2.4% yearly earnings decline over five years challenges a simple bullish take, because it shows that one stronger year has come after a more difficult stretch. To see how these swings fit into different long term storylines investors are discussing, have a look at the broader narrative around the company: **📊 Read the full Banca Profilo Consensus Narrative.** ## Margins rise while revenue eases - On a trailing 12 month basis, total revenue moved from €70.5 million in Q4 2024 to €61.4 million in Q4 2025, yet net profit margin over that period is reported at 17.2% compared with 12.4% the prior year. - For the bullish side, it is notable that higher profitability came together with softer trailing 12 month revenue. Revenue stepped down from €70.4 million in Q3 2024 to €66.7 million in Q2 and Q3 2025 and then €61.4 million in Q4 2025. This indicates that the bank earned more profit on each euro of revenue even though the top line was lower. - Bulls pointing to earnings quality can lean on the 31.8% yearly earnings growth and 17.2% margin, while bears may focus on the revenue slip from €70.5 million to €61.4 million over the same trailing periods. - For you as an investor, the tension is that better margins and higher recent earnings help the optimistic view, while the multi year 2.4% yearly earnings decline keeps the cautious view alive. ## Low P/E and high dividend - The shares trade on a P/E of 10x compared with 15.7x for the wider European Capital Markets industry and 18.6x for peers, while the dividend yield sits at 7.38% and is flagged as not well covered by current earnings. - Critics highlight that even with the lower P/E and the 7.38% yield, risks such as a five year 2.4% yearly earnings decline and the fact that 55% of liabilities come from higher risk external borrowing mean the income and valuation story is not straightforward. - The lower 10x P/E relative to industry and peers can support interest from value focused investors, but the question of how comfortably earnings cover that dividend is an important caveat. - Funding structure also matters here, because a higher share of external borrowing within liabilities can limit how flexible the bank is if conditions change, even if recent profit metrics look stronger. ## Next Steps Don't just look at this quarter; the real story is in the long-term trend.
