The state-owned bank said in a report that non-performing loans fell to 4.6 percent of all loans from 10.2 percent a year before.
The bank has a market share of 9.6 percent in Slovenia, according to balance sheet assets, which rose by 2 percent last year.
Hungarian bank OTP said it was bidding to buy Abanka, while local media reported Serbian bank AIK and US investment fund Apollo were also bidding for the bank.
State investment firm Slovenian Sovereign Holding, which is in charge of privatisation, refused to comment on the sales process.
Slovenia intends to sell all of Abanka by the middle of this year to meet the terms of an agreement to win European Commission approval of state aid to the bank in 2013.
