Oma Savings Bank Plc’s Interim Report 1.1.-31.3.2022: Profitable growth continues - comparable profit before taxes increased by 100%
This release is a summary of Oma Savings Bank’s (OmaSp) January-March 2022 Interim Report, which can be read from the pdf file attached to this stock exchange release and on the Company’s web pages www.omasp.fi
CEO Pasi Sydänlammi: Profitable growth continues - comparable profit before taxes increased by 100%
“OmaSp's early year performance was excellent and we can be very pleased with the development of the business. Demand in all key product areas has remained at a good level and volume growth has continued strong in the early part of the year. The business transferred from Eurajoen Savings Bank has been successfully integrated into OmaSp's operations during the first quarter.
Main sources of income have continued to develop strongly, Net interest income increased by 28% and Fee and commission income and expenses by 30% compared to the previous year. Business efficiency also improved compared to the previous financial year and the comparable cost/income ratio was 51.9%.
The strong performance of the business is reflected in return on equity as well as earnings per share. Return on equity (ROE%) rose to 15.3% and comparable return on equity (ROE%) to as much as 16.8%, both well above the target level of 10%. Earnings per share improved by 56% to EUR 0.49.
Profit before taxes increased by 56% to EUR 18.2 million. Comparable profit before tax doubled to EUR 20.0 million.
The year continues from an excellent starting point
We have been preparing for the application of the IRB method in capital adequacy accounting for a long time and submitted an application for a permit to the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority in early February. With the IRB method, OmaSp's use of capital will become even more efficient in the coming years. It is important to us that the application of the IRB method brings new methods of credit risk management and puts OmaSp in a comparable position with the benchmark banks.
At the beginning of the year, we entered into a long-term collaboration with Kyndryl-Samlink for IT services. They have strong expertise in developing financial IT services and through long-term cooperation we aim to achieve for an even more modern and cost-effective IT environment.
The direct effects of the Russian invasion war have so far been limited on the bank's operations. The situation is generally reflected in the economic environment as accelerating inflation and rising interest rates. The war has highlighted the existence of cyber threats and we have updated our preparedness measures and policies.
We continue to invest strong in improving customer service and customer experience. We will open a new full-service branch in the city of Espoo during the current year to meet the increased demand in the metropolitan area. We have continued to develop digital services and bring new features to mobile banking. We also launched a nationwide collaboration with Suomen Yrittäjät (an interest and service organization for SMEs in Finland). Entrepreneurs and their companies represent a significant part of our growing customer base in Finland.
The start to 2022 has been successful and we are continuing the current financial year from excellent starting points. In line with our earnings guidance, we expect OmaSp's profitable growth to continue.”
