Nassau, The Bahamas, November 11, 2025 – Colina Holdings Bahamas Limited’s (CHBL’s) unaudited interim financial statements for the nine months ending September 30, 2025, were released today, reflecting a strong performance, while delivering on its mission to create sustainable value for stakeholders.
The Company reported net and comprehensive net income attributable to ordinary shareholders of $39.1 million or $1.58 per ordinary share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the same period in 2024, the net income attributable to ordinary shareholders was $34.9 million or $1.41 per ordinary share.
CHBL is pleased to report a $8.9 million improvement in the insurance service result which totalled $19.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2024.
“This growth reflects strong performance across CHBL’s life, health, and general insurance subsidiaries, including contributions from Saxon Holdings following its acquisition,” said Emanuel M. Alexiou, Chairman.
Net investment income totalled $48.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $45.5 million for the same period in the prior year. The period saw continued increases in both interest received and mark-to-market adjustments.

“Our integration of the Saxon companies is progressing well and continues to present meaningful opportunities for growth and collaboration,” said Alexiou, who noted that the shared values and commitment to excellence across both organisations position the Group for continued success.
As CHBL approaches the final quarter of the year, the Company remains well-positioned to execute its strategic initiatives with focus and discipline.
“I want to thank our shareholders for their continued confidence and support,” said Alexiou. “My sincere appreciation is also extended to our dedicated employees for their hard work and commitment throughout the year, as we remain steadfast in advancing our mission to promote the financial security and well-being of our customers.”
