In the first half of 2026, the bank recorded operating revenue of RMB 2.655 billion, down 2.3% year on year, and net profit of RMB 416 million, up 4.3% year on year.

Regarding net interest margin, Bank of Gansu's net interest margin was 1.09% in the first half of 2026, down 3 basis points from 1.12% in the same period of 2025. For full-year 2025, the net interest margin fell to 1.09% from 1.18% in 2024. In its 2026 interim report, the bank explained that the narrowing of the net interest margin was mainly due to the continued decline in market interest rates, while the bank proactively lowered interest rates to benefit the real economy, reducing the average yield on interest-earning assets; to increase support for the real economy, the scale of interest-earning assets such as loans and investments continued to grow, leading to a slight narrowing of the net interest margin.
