BH LEASING – The company announced that its board of directors, at its meeting on March 4, 2026, reviewed the company’s activity for 2025 and approved the 2025 financial statements showing a net profit of 2.7 MD, compared to 3.9 MD the previous year.
The decline in results for the period compared to the previous year is mainly explained by an increase in personnel costs, linked to the implementation of the provisions of the new labor contracts law No. 9-2025 of 21/05/2025, amounting to 1.2 MD, as well as by the decrease in “other financial income” of 1.2 MD, following a reduction in the rate of return on placements.
