August 28, 2019 (MLN): Silkbank Limited has announced Profit after Tax of Rs. 116 million (EPS: Rs. 0.01) for the half year ended June 30, 2019, signifying a decline of 84% over the same period of last year.

The Net Interest Income of the bank increased by merely 5%, owing to higher increase in interest expenses than interest returns.

On the flip side, the total expenses increased by 19.5%, on account of massive increase in non-core expenses.

Nevertheless, the bank received some breather via decline in income tax expenses by 58%.
