Lufthansa Group Posts Strong Profit Growth
The carrier’s primary earnings metric, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), rose 19% compared to the prior year, amounting to $2.26 billion.
Total revenue also climbed 5%, reaching $42.8 billion during the same period.
According to the company, the boost in profits was largely driven by Lufthansa Airlines’ operational resilience last year, after facing challenges in the aftermath of the pandemic.
Compensation payments to travelers for cancellations and delays dropped by $418.9 million in 2025, reducing cost pressures, although soft demand and pricing challenges on transatlantic flights tempered some of the gains.
Despite these improvements, Lufthansa’s net profit decreased 3% year-on-year to $1.5 billion due to tax impacts.
The airline intends to increase its dividend per share by 10% to $0.38, providing a dividend yield of 4% based on the year-end closing stock price.
The group, which encompasses Eurowings, Swiss, Brussels, and Austrian Airlines, reported carrying 135 million passengers in 2025, up from 131.3 million in 2024.
