Bank Alfalah Limited (BAFL): Earnings Miss on higher OPEX - By IIS Research
Jan 30 2025
Ismail Iqbal Securities
- Bank Alfalah has announced 4QCY24 result, where the bank has posted unconsolidated earnings of PKR 2.96/sh, down by 49% YoY and 64% on QoQ basis. The result is below our expectations mainly because of higher-thanexpected increase in operating expenses. The bank has announced final cash dividend of PKR 2.5/sh against our expectation of PKR2/sh, taking full year dividend to PKR 8.5/sh.
- Net Interest Income (NII) down 10% YoY and 6% QoQ, mainly due to lower advances income as banks lent cheaper to meet the ADR target, abolished in late December, and larger repricing has already been reflected in 2Q/3Q.
- Non-markup income increase by 23% and down by 9% QoQ. The YoY increase is because of 2.5x increase in gain on sale securities and QoQ decline is because of lower FX income amid stable PKR/USD. Furthermore, fee income also down by 2% on YoY basis and up by 6% on QoQ basis.
