We firmly stayed true to our purpose to support the growth ambitions of manufacturers, dealers, and distributors, but now very firmly as a multi-product lender in their markets.
The first half of the year has been characterised by record loan origination, resilient margins, a stable funding base, robust credit quality and a continuing focus on cost control and building a capital position that supports our strategic growth plans.
Yet again, we've been beating records left, right and centre and our half-year position materially exceeds the expectations we set at the start of the year.
Our loan book increased 200 million in the same period in the prior year, reaching 932 million.
All of this saw our statutory return on equity reach 15.3% for the period and our tangible net asset value per share now exceeds 82p, up 17% on the same period in 2025.
The sustained momentum we've demonstrated through the year so far shows we are well on the way to achieve our target of a 20% equity return.
Our story is about scaling the bank and growing our lending in the products and services we already have in our armory whilst making sure we maintain margins, drive cost efficiency whilst unlocking latent operational capacity and demonstrating good credit risk management.
