FX.co ★ Lithuania’s Yearly GDP Growth Cools to 1.8% in Q3 2026, Down from 4.1% in Previous Quarter

Lithuania’s economic momentum slowed notably in the third quarter of 2026, with gross domestic product (GDP) growth easing to 1.80% year-over-year. This marks a clear deceleration from the 4.10% annual growth rate recorded in the second quarter of 2026, based on the latest data updated on 30 October 2026.

The figures reflect a softer expansion when comparing each quarter to the same period a year earlier. The “previous” indicator of 4.10% showed how GDP in the second quarter of 2026 grew relative to the second quarter of the prior year, while the current 1.80% reading measures growth in the third quarter of 2026 against the third quarter a year ago. The shift signals that Lithuania’s economy, while still expanding, is doing so at a significantly slower pace as the year progresses.

Analysts and investors will now be watching upcoming data releases to assess whether the third-quarter slowdown proves temporary or marks the start of a more persistent cooling phase in Lithuania’s growth cycle.
