Aktia Bank Plc: Interim report January-March 2018

Lower costs and improved net commission income contributed to higher comparable operating profit

Juha Hammarén, acting CEO

” During the first quarter of the year, Aktia focused fully on implementing the new strategy. The comparable operating profit increased by EUR 2.1 million to
EUR 18 million from last year due to the continued high net commission income and the work on the cost structure that started in the end of 2017. Aktia’s outlook for 2018 has been revised as the comparable operating profit for 2018 is expected to be somewhat higher than the comparable operating profit for 2017.”

January - March 2018:

  • Net commission income increased to EUR 23.8 (21.1) million. The net interest income decreased to EUR 20.7 (23.4) million, of which net interest income from borrowing and lending stayed at the same level as last year, EUR 16.9 (17.1) million. Interest income from the liquidity portfolio and unwound interest rate hedges decreased by EUR 2.9 million. Total operating income decreased to EUR 51.2 (53.1) million.
  • The total operating expenses decreased by 10 % to EUR 33.5 (37.3) million. Operating expenses excluding items affecting comparability were EUR 33.1 (36.6) million.
