April 25, 2019 (MLN): Bank Al Habib Limited has announced net earnings of Rs. 2.04 billion (EPS: Rs. 1.85) for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, which is almost the same as the earnings of same period last year.

The company observed a substantial increase in net mark-up income of 40.1%. Similarly, the total income increased by 38% as a result of growth in Fee income and Dividend income by 34% and 15% respectively.

The major drawback during the quarter was a higher effective tax rate, thanks to imposition of Super Tax on profits of CY17 which was booked during the period.

Moreover, operating expenses were up by 21% as a result of rapid branch expansion carried out by the bank in the past 12 months.

However, all of these factors had a minimal impact on the overall profits of the company.
