The Lithuanian economy expanded by 1.7% quarter-on-quarter in the final quarter of 2025, in line with preliminary estimates and accelerating from a revised 0.3% growth in the previous quarter.

The latest figure also marked the fastest growth since the third quarter of 2021, driven mainly by higher output in manufacturing (1.5% vs -0.4% in Q3), trade-related services (1.8% vs -0.3%), information and communications (2.6% vs 1.7%), and real estate transactions (1.6% vs 0.5%).

On the expenditure side, gross fixed capital formation increased the most (1.8% vs 1.3%), while household (0.3% vs 0.2%) and government spending (0.1% vs 0.2%) rose slightly.

Net external demand also contributed positively, with imports (-1.1% vs 1.9%) declining more than exports (-0.3% vs 0%).

On an annual basis, the GDP grew by 3.1% in the fourth quarter, following a 1.9% expansion in the preceding period.

For the whole year, the economy advanced by 2.9% compared to 2024.
