EGX-listed Beltone sees major turnaround as 9m profit grows 161%
Beltone Financial Holding has reported robust growth with a 161% year-on-year increase in net profit for the first nine months of 2023, reaching EGP 86 million ($2.8 million). This is a significant turnaround from the previous year when the company recorded a loss of EGP 140 million.
The operating revenue for the same period surged by 271% year-on-year, reaching EGP 957 million. This growth is attributed to strong operational performance across non-banking financial institutions (NBFIs), the investment bank, and other ventures.
The NBFIs operating revenue experienced remarkable growth, reaching EGP 478 million, reflecting a substantial increase of 680% year-on-year. Meanwhile, the investment bank's operating revenue stood at EGP 198 million, and the securities brokerage margin lending portfolio rose to EGP 621 million. Beltone's assets under management (AUM) reached EGP 23 billion at the end of September, contributing to the positive overall financial performance.
