The bank&rsquo s net profit for its fourth quarter fell 10% to S$2.26 billion
[SINGAPORE] Shares of DBS : D05 -1.87% dropped as much as 1.9 per cent as at 9.03 am on Monday (Feb 9) after it reported a fall in its quarterly and full-year net profit.
The counter dropped S$1.12 to S$58.18, but later pared some losses to be down 1.1 per cent at S$58.63 as at the midday trading break.
Shares of DBS ended Monday at S$58.19, down 1.9 per cent or S$1.11.
This came after the bank reported that its fourth-quarter net profit fell to S$2.26 billion, 10 per cent lower than the net profit of S$2.52 billion for the same period a year earlier.
The earnings missed the S$2.59 billion consensus forecast in a Bloomberg survey of six analysts.

DBS getting dumped. Not a good sign for Ms Tan!
There's hardly any conversation there but no harm posting a comment on Uob here also..Of coz I wouldn't mind any of the 3 banks to post good results as I owned some Uob n Ocbc also. But overall I'm happy Dbs are giving good dividends.

No, I' m not one of those with high expectation and hence there' s hardly any disappointment on my part. Well, UOB might just be the " dark horse" but shouldn' t you post it at the UOB sharejunction instead ? You must be very expectant on the upcoming UOB result announcement on 24 February haha....

dividend at 81 cents share prices down $1, still a buy?
As usual, high expectations will always end up in disappointment..But @least on the consolation side they've increased their dividends.
Uob could be the dark horse this coming result!

There shouldn' t be any exceptions.
The situation is probably similar for the 3 majaor banks.

Yes, a relatively quite day here compared to Keppel forum which is bustling with happiiness.
Will be interesting to see how OCBC and UOB will fare when it' s their turn to announce Q4 results on 24 & 25 Feb.

I think everyone had high expectations of DBS's results today n hoping price would shoot past beyond 60 bucks...
DBS Q4 profit down 10% at S$2.26 billion, falling short of forecasts pays S$0.81 per share in dividends
It will be maintaining its capital return dividend in FY2026 and FY2027, barring unforeseen circumstances
[SINGAPORE] DBS&rsquo net profit for its fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2025, fell 10 per cent to S$2.26 billion, compared with S$2.52 billion from the year-ago period.
Excluding the S$100 million set aside for corporate social responsibility (CSR) commitments, net profit would have been S$2.36 billion.
In the quarter, stronger fee income and treasury customer sales were more than offset by rate headwinds, higher tax expenses and the absence of non-recurring gains recorded the year before, the bank said on Monday (Feb 9).
The earnings missed the S$2.59 billion consensus forecast in a Bloomberg survey of six analysts.
The lender declared an ordinary dividend of S$0.66 per share and a capital return dividend of S$0.15 per share for the period.
This brings the quarter&rsquo s total dividend payout to S$0.81 per share, compared with S$0.60 per share in the year-ago period.
DBS said it plans to continue paying its capital return dividend of S$0.15 per share per quarter for financial years 2026 and 2027, barring unforeseen circumstances.
For the commercial book, total income was down 3 per cent at S$5.18 billion.
Net interest income for the segment fell 6 per cent to S$3.59 billion, due to lower net interest margin.
The banking trio are set to release their fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results: DBS on Feb 9, UOB on Feb 24 and OCBC on Feb 25.

The banking trio drove the STI up 1.3% to close at 4,923.02 on Jan 27.
How high can they go? Analysts set new target prices for DBS, OCBC, UOB after record week
Commercial book net fee and commission income rose 14 per cent to S$1.1 billion, led by higher wealth management. Investment banking and loan-related fees were also higher.
Commercial book other non-interest income fell 11 per cent to S$486 million, as a 13 per cent increase in treasury customer sales was offset by lower other income, which had included non-recurring gains the year prior.
Meanwhile, its markets trading income fell 3 per cent to S$154 million.
Overall, group net interest margin stood at 1.93 per cent for the quarter, down from 2.15 per cent in the previous corresponding period.
The bank&rsquo s non-performing loans ratio was 1 per cent, down from 1.1 per cent previously.
This was notwithstanding the &ldquo prudent downgrade of a previously watch-listed real estate exposure&rdquo , the bank noted. Specific allowances for Q4 rose to 36 basis points (bps) of loans, from 20 bps the same period a year earlier.
This brings full-year specific allowances to 19 bps of loans, from 13 bps the year before, amid a partial offset by a release of general allowances.
DBS chief executive Tan Su Shan noted that the bank is comfortable with its exposures, with &ldquo sufficient&rdquo general provision reserves.
She said: &ldquo While rate pressures and geopolitical tensions are expected to persist, the quality of our franchise and strong balance sheet provide a solid foundation for the year ahead.&rdquo
For the full year, net profit fell 3 per cent to S$10.93 billion, reflecting higher tax expenses from the consequential implementation of the 15 per cent global minimum tax.
Excluding the S$100 million in CSR commitments, full-year net profit would have been S$11.03 billion, missing the S$11.27 billion consensus estimate in a Bloomberg survey of 15 analysts.
For 2026, Tan expects net profit to be slightly below 2025 levels, and total income around 2025 levels.
Group net interest income would likely be slightly below 2025 levels amid further rate cuts and a strong Singapore dollar, mitigated by deposit growth.
Meanwhile, the commercial book non-interest income growth will likely be in the high single digits, with mid-teens growth in wealth management.
