April 25, 2019 (MLN): Faysal Bank Limited (FABL) has reported last quarter’s consolidated profit at Rs.1.6 billion (EPS: Rs.1.05), thereby recording a 31.5% (or Rs.383.3 million) growth over the year.

Mr. Mustafa Mustansir at Taurus Securities has pointed out in a post earnings review note, that due to high ADR within the industry and significant exposure to MTBs, the bank’s net interest income (Rs.4.9 billion) grew by Rs.1.6 billion or 46%.

Meanwhile, non-mark-up income (Rs.1.7 billion) rose by 12.9% over the year, due to increase in fee income (Rs.809.4 million) and foreign exchange income (Rs.792.5 million) as they rose by Rs.43.3 million and Rs.383.8million respectively.

Following this, the bank’s total income has been recorded at Rs.6.67 billion which is an improvement of nearly 36% over the year.

On the other hand, FABL’s non-mark-up expenses expanded by 20.9% or Rs.670.2 million, adding up to a total of Rs.3.88 billion.
