Please note that starting from 1 January 2023, Halyk Group's financial statements have been transited to IFRS 17 "Insurance Contracts" from IFRS 4, which resulted in recalculation of certain assets, labilities, equity and P&L items for 2021-2022. All of the ratios were also recalculated accordingly. For more detailed information please refer to Halyk Group's financial statements for 1Q 2023, note #4.
The net profit attributable to common shareholders amounted to KZT 188.2bn in 1Q 2023, up 51.2% compared with KZT 124.5bn in 1Q 2022 mainly due to significant increase in lending and transactional businesses.
The interest income for 1Q 2023 increased by 49.8% vs. 1Q 2022 mainly due to increase in average rate and balances of loans to customers. The interest expense for 1Q 2023 increased by 71.7% vs. 1Q 2022 mainly as a result of the growth in average rate and balances of amounts due to customers. Consequently, net interest income for 1Q 2023 grew by 33.2% vs. 1Q 2022.
In 1Q 2023, net interest margin was affected by the increase in average rates on both loans to customers and amounts due to customers following the significant increase in interest rates. Furthermore, the share of loans to customers in total interest-earning assets increased substantially. Moreover, there was an increase in the average rate and average balances of FX amounts due from credit institutions and FX interest-earning cash and cash equivalents following the global increase of USD interest rates. As a result, net interest margin increased to 6.0% p.a. for 1Q 2023 compared to 5.2% p.a. for 1Q 2022.
The cost of risk on loans to customers for 1Q 2023 was at normalized level within the scope of our full year guidance of 1.2%
In 1Q 2023 compared to 1Q 2022, the overall dynamics of fee and commission income and expense was driven by the increased transactional activity as a result of the clients inflow due to changes in the operating landscape. Net fee and commission income for 1Q 2023 increased by 88.6% vs. 1Q 2022 due to increase in net transactional income of legal entities and individuals (7).
Other non-interest income (8) decreased by 25.2% for 1Q 2023 vs. 1Q 2022 mainly due to lower net gain from financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss and net gain on foreign exchange operations as a result of higher volatility of exchange rates and interest rates in 1Q 2022.
The net insurance income (9) for 1Q 2023 increased by 12.5x year-on-year, due to recognition of insurance reserve expenses on unsecured consumer loans with a borrower's life insurance bundle in 1Q 2022.
The operating expenses for 1Q 2023 increased by 7.2% vs. 1Q 2022 mainly due to the indexation of salaries and other employee benefits starting from March 1, 2023, which was partially offset by the higher charity expenses in 1Q 2022.
The cost-to-income ratio decreased to 16.5% compared to 20.1% for 1Q 2022 amid higher operating income for 1Q 2023.
(7) Transactional income of individuals, less transactional expenses of individuals and less loyalty program bonuses;
(8) Other non-interest income (Net gain on financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, net realised loss from financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, share in profit of associate, income on non-banking activities and other income;
(9) Insurance underwriting income less insurance claims incurred and net expenses from reinsurance contracts held;
