The Nigeria Infrastructure Debt Fund (NIDF) has reported a pre-tax profit of ₦23.6 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, marking a 21% increase from the ₦19.5 billion recorded in 2024. The growth was largely driven by robust returns from the fund’s infrastructure loan portfolio.
Interest income from loans rose to ₦21.5 billion, supported by steady cash flows from projects across key sectors including pipelines, power, telecom towers, marine infrastructure, broadband, and off-grid solar projects. Net fair value gains on loans also contributed positively to the fund’s earnings.
Total income for the year reached ₦25.7 billion, while expenses remained contained at ₦2.1 billion, reflecting disciplined cost management. Consequently, total assets grew to ₦137.7 billion, with members’ funds rising to ₦130.7 billion, both representing healthy double-digit year-on-year growth.
The fund continued its strong performance in the fourth quarter, posting ₦6.7 billion in Q4 profit, compared to ₦5.9 billion in the same period in 2024. A distribution of ₦4.68 per unit was declared for the quarter, translating to an estimated 21% yield for unitholders.
The strong results underscore NIDF’s position as a leading financier of Nigeria’s infrastructure sector, leveraging diversified assets and consistent loan returns to deliver value for investors despite economic challenges. Visit www.jocomms.com for more news.
