Financial Overview
Condensed Interim Consolidated Income Statement
Net income
The Bank's net income increased to KZT 16.6 billion from KZT 4.3 billion for 1H 2009 primarily due to increase in net fees and commission income (excluding pension fund and asset management) by 9.6 percent, decrease in interest expense by 15.1 percent and decrease in impairment charge by 51.8 percent, partially offset by decrease in interest income by 11.2 percent, decrease in pension fund and asset management fees by 63.2 percent, decrease in net gain on foreign exchange operations by 41.8 percent and increase in operating expenses by 12.8 percent.
Interest income
Interest income decreased by 11.2 percent to KZT 90.9 billion from KZT 102.3 billion for 1H 2009 as a result of decrease in average interest rates on interest-earning assets to 9.7 percent from 12.5 percent. Average balances of loans to customers decreased by 9.5 percent, whereas their share in interest-earning assets decreased to 50.1 percent from 59.5 percent and average rates on them decreased to 15.3 percent p.a. from 15.9 percent p.a. This decrease was partially offset by 50.6 percent increase in interest income on available-for-sale investment securities mainly as a result of 244.4 percent increase in their average balances.
Interest expense decreased by 15.1 percent to KZT 45.9 billion from KZT 54.1 billion for 1H 2009 as a result of decrease in average rates on interest-bearing liabilities to 5.2 percent from 6.7 percent for 1H 2009 partially offset by 8.3 percent increase in average balances of interest-bearing liabilities. Average rates on amounts due to customers decreased to 4.7 percent from 6.1 percent for 1H 2009.
Impairment charge
Impairment charge decreased by 51.8 percent compared to 1H 2009 reflecting continued stabilization of loan portfolio quality since mid-2009.
Fees and commissions
Fee and commission income (excluding pension fund and asset management) increased by 12.9 percent to KZT 12.2 billion from KZT 10.8 billion for 1H 2009 primarily as a result of growing volumes of transactional banking business.
Performance-linked asset management fees in pension fund business decreased by 63.2 percent to KZT 3.5 billion from KZT 9.4 billion for 1H 2009 as a result of overall decline in domestic and global securities markets in May-June 2010 as well as reflecting "one-off" increase in asset management fees in Q1 2009 mainly due to KZT devaluation. This decline was partially offset by increase in pension administration fees by 34.1 percent as a result of growing number of pension fund customers and average size of pension contributions.
Other non-interest income
Other non-interest income decreased by 6.9 percent to KZT 11.1 billion from KZT 11.9 billion for 1H 2009 primarily as a result of 32.7 percent decrease in net gain from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit and loss due to overall downward trend in domestic and global financial markets, partially offset by lower net losses on available-for-sale investment securities, as well as decrease in net gain on foreign exchange dealing.
Net gain on foreign exchange dealing decreased by 50.0 percent to KZT 3.3 billion from KZT 6.6 billion for 1H 2009 primarily as a result of "one-off" increase in volumes of foreign exchange operations by customers in 1Q 2009 due significant KZT devaluation. Net gain on foreign exchange dealing increased by 2.9 percent in 1H 2010 compared to 1H 2008 and by 7.6 percent in 2Q 2010 compared to 1Q 2010 as a result of growing volumes of foreign exchange business with customers partially offset by lower spread on such transactions.
Insurance underwriting income less insurance claims incurred, net of reinsurance, increased by 6.0 percent to KZT 2.4 billion from KZT 2.2 billion for 1H 2009 primarily as a result of growth in insurance premiums written due to growing volumes of insurance business.
Non-interest expenses
Operating expenses increased by 12.8 percent to KZT 20.2 billion from KZT 17.9 billion for 1H 2009 primarily due to "one-off" write-off of intangible assets in 1Q 2010. Other operating expenses increased by 6.7 percent due to overall growth of the Bank's business, including opening of new outlets, and inflation.
