CAIRO - Commercial International Bank (EGX: COMI) today reported fourth-quarter 2016 consolidated net income of EGP 1.55 billion, or EGP 1.19 per share, an increase of 35% over fourth-quarter 2015 net income of EGP 1.15 billion, or EGP 0.87 per share.

Management commented: "CIB posted another year of record performance, despite the unfavorable macroeconomic environment and increasingly challenging regulatory requirements, generating consolidated full-year revenues of EGP 11.3 billion and net income of EGP 6.01 billion, up 11% and 27% from 2015, respectively.

With the unprecedented decision by the CBE to allow the Egyptian Pound to trade freely by year-end after severe foreign currency shortages, three corridor rate hikes throughout the year, with the latest being for an aggressive 300bp, along with the enforcement of ICAAP and the Capital Conservation Buffer, 2016 turned out to be a truly challenging year for CIB and for the entire Egyptian banking sector. Notwithstanding these circumstances, CIB managed to meet minimum capital requirements and to deliver outstanding financial performance, attesting the Bank's resilience in the face of economic uncertainties.

During 2016, and even back in 2015, CIB Management has been proficient in foreseeing such macroeconomic and regulatory developments and has reacted accordingly to accommodate them. The decision to cut dividends in 2015, despite an overly comfortable CAR level back then, allowed CIB to absorb the interest rate hike and EGP devaluation that took place in the subsequent quarter and preserve its sufficient capital level. Not only had Management been successful in mitigating the interest rate risk on CAR, but has also managed to benefit from such an increasing interest rate environment by keeping its balance sheet at the shortest duration possible. We believe the outlook in 2017 still remains ambiguous given the impact of recent macroeconomic developments on the banking sector performance in general and the Banks' Capital Adequacy Ratios in particular. We remain, however, self-assured that our fortress balance sheet and robust fundamentals keep us well-positioned to withstand economic and regulatory pressures, should any arise."
