Lower taxes pull up BIPL’s bottom-line

August 25, 2021 (MLN): BankIslami Pakistan Limited (BIPL) has made profits of Rs1.02 billion for the half-year ended June 30, 2021, depicting an increase of around 8% YoY. However, its pre-tax profit inched lower by 0.6% as compared to the same period last year.

This has translated into earnings per share (EPS) of Rs0.92 for the period which is approx. 8% higher than the EPS recorded in the same period of last year.

According to the financial results issued to PSX, the bank witnessed a decline of 25% YoY in its net return during the period. The total other income also dropped by 7.5% on the back of lower foreign exchange income (down by 21%) coupled with an 88% decrease in capital gains.

On the other hand, the bank saw a reversal of provision worth Rs267mn against the provision of Rs1.54bn during 1HCY20.

The major highlight is a 10.4% YoY decrease in taxes which converted a decline in pre-tax profits into growth in the bottom-line during 1HCY21.
