Group points to risk management, digitalisation and cost discipline as it prepares for next phase of its strategy
Enterprise Group PLC says its focus on long-term sustainability is shaping how it manages growth, with greater attention to risk, technology, operating efficiency and the quality of earnings.
The Group outlined the approach at the Ghana Stock Exchange’s (GSE) “Facts Behind the Figures” forum in Accra, where its management discussed the company’s first-half 2026 performance and priorities for the remainder of the year.
Enterprise Group reported a 21.7% increase in net revenue and a 35.1% rise in profit before tax in the first half of the year. Operating expenses increased by 5.2% over the same period.
Group Chief Executive Officer, Daniel Larbi-Tieku, said the results reflected the Group’s continued investment in its people, customers and digital transformation, while keeping an eye on the long-term strength of the business.
“Our HI 2026 performance demonstrates that Enterprise Group remains solid, has a strong brand and continues to meet its obligations to its customers and stakeholders,” he said.
He said the Group was on course to complete its three-year strategic plan in 2027, with the focus extending beyond short-term financial performance to building businesses that can continue creating value for customers, shareholders and society.
Managing the quality of growth
Group Chief Financial Officer Michael Tyson said the first-half figures were supported by stronger underlying performance across the Group’s operating businesses.
He said net revenue growth, improved profitability and controlled operating expenses reflected what he described as the quality of the Group’s growth.
Enterprise’s priorities for 2026 include strengthening risk solutions within its insurance businesses, with the aim of improving revenues and margins while preserving financial strength.
The Group is also stepping up automation and deploying technologies designed to improve operational efficiency.
Tyson said the company would continue to invest in activities expected to create value while giving particular attention to its Nigerian operations, where management is working towards achieving break-even.
“Overall, we expect 2026 to conclude with improved revenues and profits,” he said.
Sustainability tied to business fundamentals
For Enterprise, the sustainability discussion is closely linked to the fundamentals of the business.
Risk management is particularly important for the Group’s insurance operations, where financial strength and the ability to meet customer obligations are central to maintaining confidence.
The emphasis on automation and technology is also aimed at improving efficiency as the Group grows, while controlled operating costs provide room for continued investment.
Larbi-Tieku said the Group’s approach was to build businesses that could create value over the long term rather than focus only on immediate results.
That strategy is being pursued as Enterprise moves towards the final year of its current three-year plan in 2027.
Transparency and investor confidence
GSE Managing Director Abena Amoah used the forum to commend Enterprise Group for its engagement with the investment community and its approach to market disclosures.
She said the “Facts Behind the Figures” platform gives listed companies an opportunity to explain their results and strategic direction directly to investors, analysts and the media.
“Such engagements strengthen investor confidence and contribute to the continued development of Ghana’s capital market,” she said.
The interaction also gave institutional investors, analysts and media representatives an opportunity to question Enterprise’s leadership about its performance and outlook.
