February 7, 2020 (MLN): Allied Bank Limited has posted earnings of Rs. 14.4 billion (EPS: Rs. 12.65) for the year ended December 31, 2019, showing an increment of nearly 11% over the last year.

The Board of Directors of the Bank also announced a Final Cash Dividend for the year at Rs. 2 per share, i.e. 20%. This is in addition to interim dividends already paid at Rs. 6 per share i.e. 60%.

The bottom-line income of the Bank was mainly boosted by a rise in the Fee, commission income and Forex income by 14% and 32% respectively. Moreover, a 29% increase in the non-markup income further pushed the profits higher.

It is pertinent to mention that the above mentioned results exceeded the market expectations, as majority of the brokerage houses keeping a check on the bank’s performance expected a rise in net income by 6% only.
