CAIRO - Commercial International Bank (EGX: COMI) today reported second-quarter 2018 consolidated net income of EGP 2.40 billion, or EGP 1.83 per share, up 31% from second-quarter 2017. Cumulatively, first-half 2018 consolidated net income recorded EGP 4.42 billion, growing by 24% from first half 2017.
Management commented: "Building on its steadfast performance in the first quarter, CIB delivered another record set of results in the second quarter of 2018, maintaining its resilient position in terms of profitability, liquidity and capital adequacy. Topline for the quarter includes a lump sum amount of EGP 760 million that was transferred from the unearned interest account to interest income on the Bank's P&L, which was charged a provision expense by the same amount, as per CBE guidelines, leaving the bottom line unaffected. When normalizing for this amount, CIB grew its top line by a normal 22% over last year, despite being pulled down by a negative revaluation of its trading bond portfolio driven by a surge in sovereign yields. Topline growth was backed mainly by an improvement in local currency spreads, while preserving deposit market share, alongside a considerable pick-up in foreign currency lending activity.
CIB maintained its Capital Adequacy Ratio at 18%, well above the minimum requirement and remaining flat from first quarter, despite the increase in sovereign yields, which resulted in a significant negative revaluation for the Bank's available-for-sale Treasury bond portfolio, as this was fully offset by interim profits of the quarter. With regards to 2019, and the accompanying higher minimum requirement, we remain comfortable that CIB is prone to exceed this minimum by a reasonable buffer. We keep an eye open, however, in order to assure the sustainability of capital levels above regulators' requisites notwithstanding unfavorable market dynamics that may arise in the near future."
