January 27, 2021 (MLN): Bank Al Habib Limited (BAHL) has unveiled its financial results for CY20, as per results, the bank’s profitability has substantially increased by 60.5% YoY to stand at Rs 17.95 billion against Rs 11.19 billion of the same period last year.

The earnings per share of BAHL also exhibited an increase of 60.38% YoY to Rs 16.15 as opposed to Rs 10.07 last year.

Alongside financial results, the board of directors has announced a final cash dividend for the year ended Dec 31, 2020, at Rs 4.50 per share i.e. 45%.

The massive increase in profitability was attributable to higher than expected Net Interest Income (NII), which expanded by 40% YoY to Rs 57.64 billion.  

During the period under review, non-funded income (NFI) of the bank jumped up by 10% YoY mainly on account of higher fee and commission income ( up by 11% YoY), other income (up by 23.6% YoY) along with a net gain of Rs 182 million on securities.

However, non-interest expenses of the bank surged by 23% YoY, limiting the favorable impact of increased NII and NFI on the bank’s net earnings. In CY20, the bank paid taxes worth Rs 10.75 billion, up by 37% YoY.
