Romanian agribusiness group Agricover Holding reported a 55% jump in first-half net profit on Tuesday, August 26, driven by higher lending volumes and a return to profitability in its farm input distribution segment.<\/p>\n
The company posted a net profit of RON 62.7 million (EUR 12.6 million) for the first six months of 2025, while consolidated revenues rose 5.1% year-on-year.<\/p>\n
Agricover said its integrated model, combining financing with input supply, helped it gain market share despite subdued farmer incomes and low crop prices.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn a paradoxical year with good harvests but low revenues and tight liquidity, Agricover has grown its credit portfolio and brought input distribution back to profit,\u201d said Agricover Holding CEO Liviu Dobre.<\/p>\n
Agricover\u2019s gross loan portfolio expanded 14.3% to RON 3.84 billion, giving it a 7.8% share of Romania\u2019s agricultural financing market. Non-performing loans stood at 3.2%, below the sector average. Pre-tax profit from lending rose 2.2% to RON 61.5 million.<\/p>\n
The input distribution unit posted revenues of RON 850 million, up 5.1% year-on-year, and an operating profit of RON 16.8 million compared with a RON 4.3 million loss a year earlier. Growth was strongest in crop nutrition products (+21.7%) and crop protection chemicals (+12.6%).<\/p>\n
The company said it aims to maintain steady growth and strengthen its role as a key financier of Romanian agriculture, which continues to face climate volatility, liquidity constraints, and technological adaptation pressures.<\/p>\n
