August 20, 2020 (MLN): Faysal Bank has reported a net profit of Rs 3.79 billion (EPS: Rs 2.50) for the half-year ended June 30, 2020, depicting a growth of 26% against net profits of Rs 3 billion (EPS: Rs 1.98) of the corresponding period last year.

The improvement in net earnings is the result of Net Interest Income (NII) which went up by 31% YoY.

As per the financial statement issued to PSX, the bank’s non-funded income (NFI) increased by only 6% YoY due to capital gains of Rs 1 billion. However, fee income took a 25% YoY hit owing to the impact of the pandemic on economic activity along with lower FX income (down by 43% YoY).  

During the period under review, the bank’s operating expenses increased by 18% YoY to stand at Rs 9.43 billion. Moreover, provisioning charges ballooned by 2x YoY to clock in at Rs 1.46 billion.
