Guinness Nigeria Tops 2025 Stocks, GTco Boosts Dividend

Guinness Nigeria has emerged as the top-performing stock of 2025, with its share price skyrocketing by 161%. Meanwhile, GTco has seen a significant increase in interest income and declared a substantial dividend.

Guinness Nigeria's remarkable turnaround saw it post a N27.9 billion profit in 2025, a stark contrast to the N73 billion loss it incurred in 2024. This impressive rebound has led to its stock becoming one of the best-performing this year, thanks in part to the efforts of Ugodre, who led the weekly closing of Follow the Money.

GTco also reported strong results, with its interest income rising by 31.5% to N812 billion. The company declared a N1 per share dividend, trading at around N90 per share. Despite a drop in profit due to reduced foreign exchange windfall, GTco Holdings still posted a healthy N601 billion profit for the first half of 2025.

The Nigerian stock market has shown robust growth in 2025, with the All-Share Index gaining 38% year-to-date. This has pushed the total market value close to N90 trillion. Guinness Nigeria's impressive performance and GTco's strong results reflect the overall positive trend in the market.
