October 24, 2019 (MLN): JS Bank Limited (PSX: JSBL) has had it hard in 2019, as it booked losses of over Rs756 million for the nine months ended September 30th 2019, as against Rs 798.5 million profits earned in the same period last year.
As per the financial statement of the company, the loss per share (LPS) reported at Rs 0.58 per share.
Despite significant increase in topline which grew by 40% YoY, the Net Interest Income of the bank underwent significant pressure as it declined by 20% due to 67% rise in Interest expenses.
In addition, during the period, the bank’s non-core income such as Dividend income, foreign exchange income and Profits from associates increased significantly by 13.5%, 44% and 156% respectively, moreover, the bank also enjoyed tax rebate of Rs 140.9 million, but the impact failed to turn JSBL’s losses into profits.
