Daily FT

ASIA Asset Finance PLC (AAF) has reported a remarkable performance for the six months ended 30 September 2025, with Profit Before Tax (PBT) increasing by 150% year-on-year (YoY) to Rs. 983.06 million, compared to Rs. 392.56 million a year earlier. This growth reflects stronger portfolio quality, efficient credit underwriting, and operational excellence.

Return on Equity (ROE) rose to 20.12%, outperforming the industry average of 15.2%.

Interest income rose by Rs. 1.2 billion, a 45% year-on-year increase, driven by strategic product diversification and tight cost control. The Net Interest Margin (NIM) improved to 11.01%, up from 9.16% in 2024, placing AAF near the industry average of 11.5% as of June 2025.
