In preparing the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of profit or loss for the three and six months ended 30 June 2024, certain reclassifications have been made to conform the presentation of the statement for the three and six months ended 30 June 2025, as the current period presentation provides a better understanding of the Group's financial performance.
The reclassification of fees and commission expenses for the three and six months ended 30 June 2024 in the amount of KZT 3,632 million and KZT 7,380, respectively, includes the reclassification of deposit insurance service expenses. As these expenses are directly related to deposit expenses, the Group's management decided to reclassify them as interest expenses.
All of the ratios were also recalculated accordingly. For more detailed information please refer to Halyk Group's interim condensed consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2025, note #4b.
Net income attributable to common shareholders for 1H 2025 is up 39.4% year-on-year thanks to increase in lending and transactional businesses and due to the base effect of one-off recognized loss in a view of expected early repayment of the deposit of KSF in accordance with the IFRS in 1H 2024. Net income was negatively affected by excess profits tax, which was introduced on profit from certain banking operations for 2025 only. The net income growth, adjusted to repayment of the deposit of KSF and excess profits tax, would be 19.8%.
Interest income(1) for 1H 2025 was up 27.4% vs. 1H 2024 mainly due to increase of average balances of loans to customers.
Interest expense for 1H 2025 increased by 27.6% vs. 1H 2024 mainly as a result of the increase in average rate and balances of amounts due to customers, as well as the growth in the share of KZT amounts due to customers.
Despite the increase in average rates in amount due to customers in 1H 2025, NIM was positively impacted by the increase in share of total interest earning assets vs total interest bearing liabilities, as well as increase in the share of KZT interest-earning cash and cash equivalents. As a result, net interest margin has grown to 7.2% for 1H 2025 compared to 6.9% for 1H 2024.
In 1H 2025 compared to 1H 2024, the overall dynamics of fee and commission income and expense was driven by the increased number of clients and the growth of clients' transactional activity. Net fee and commission income for 1H 2025 increased by 11.2% vs. 1H 2024 due to increase in net transactional income of legal entities, as well as in fees on letters of credit and guarantees issued. Net transactional income of individuals slightly decreased due to an increase in the amount of bonuses for the loyalty program.
The positive dynamics of other expense/non-interest income (4) in 1H 2025 was impacted by the base effect of one-off recognized loss in a view of expected early repayment of the deposit of KSF in accordance with the IFRS in 1H 2024.
Operating expenses(5) for 1H 2025 increased by 26.5% vs. 1H 2024 mainly due to the indexation of salaries and other employee benefits, including the costs of the long-term incentive program as well as IT development related costs.
The Bank's cost-to-income ratio decreased to 17.2% compared to 18.5% for 1H 2024 amid higher operating income for 1H 2025.
Cost of risk in 1H 2025 was at the level of 1.4% compared to 1.3% in 1H 2024.
