August 17, 2022 (MLN): The bottom line of Allied Bank Limited (PSX: AKBL) has contracted by 23% YoY in  1HCY22 ended June 30, 2022, to stand at Rs6.82billion (EPS: Rs5.96), compared to Rs8.87bn (EPS: 7.75) in 1HCY21, bank’s filing on PSX revealed today.

Despite the contraction witnessed in profits, the bank has announced an interim cash dividend for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, at Rs2 per share i.e., 20%. This is in addition to the interim dividend already paid at Rs2 per share i.e., 20%.

Going by the income statement sent to PSX, the bank’s net interest income (NII) increased by 19.56% YoY to stand at Rs27.5bn. The jump in NII is due to an increase in interest-earning (Rs87.57bn), up by 64.18% YoY while the interest expense expanded by 98% YoY to Rs607bn.

During the period under review, the bank’s non-funded income (NFI) jumped by 31.34% YoY to Rs10.98bn owing to the massive surge in foreign exchange income which stood at Rs4.29bn, up by 6.4x YoY.   In addition, the increment in fee and commission income (up by 16.86%) and dividend income (11.56%) have also supported NFI.

It is pertinent to mention that the bank posted a significant decline under its gain on securities head by 61.55% to stand at Rs1bn in 1HCY22, compared to Rs2.6n in SPLY.

The non-markup interest expense has jumped by 14% YoY to lock in at Rs19.15bn during 1HCY22.

On the tax front, the bank paid Rs13.26bn in 1HCY22, more than double the amount paid in 1HCY21.
