EFG Holding posts strong Q2 2025 growth driven by diversified performance
Karim Awad, group CEO, EFG Holding/Image: Supplied EFG Holding, a financial institution with a universal bank in Egypt and the leading investment bank in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), reported a 21 per cent year-on-year (YoY) revenue increase in Q2 2025 to EGP6.1bn, supported by strong results across all business lines—particularly EFG Finance, its non-bank financial institutions (NBFI) platform, and Bank NXT, its commercial bank. Total operating expenses, including provisions and expected credit losses (ECL), rose 22 per cent YoY to EGP4.1bn, driven by higher provisions—mainly in EFG Finance—and increased general and administrative (G&A) costs, while employee expenses remained flat. With revenue growth outpacing expense growth, net operating profit rose 19 per cent YoY and net profit before tax increased 21 per cent YoY. Net profit after tax and minority interest grew 2 per cent YoY to EGP802m. Group CEO Karim Awad said: 'Our second quarter results demonstrate the continued resilience and strength with which EFG Holding operates, supported by its diversified platform and strong geographic footprint. EFG Holding's first half of 2025 has been defined by meaningful milestones and strong momentum. Foremost among these is Valu's listing on the Egyptian Exchange (EGX) in June, complemented by Amazon's decision to exercise its Option Agreement with EFG Holding to acquire a direct stake in Valu. The period's financial results highlight the standout performance of EFG Finance, driven by Valu and Bank NXT. Our Asset Management platform continues to expand, with assets under management growing, while the Investment Banking division closed transactions totaling more than $1bn in the quarter.' Business line performance EFG Hermes posted flat revenues at EGP2.7bn, with a 131 per cent YoY increase in combined Holding & Treasury Activities, Brokerage, and Buy Side revenues. Holding & Treasury Activities rebounded to EGP397m from a loss of EGP503m in Q2 2024. Brokerage revenues rose 25 per cent YoY, led by Egypt, Kuwait, and UAE markets. Net profit after tax and minority interest fell 11% YoY to EGP268m, due to lower profitability in the Investment Banking division. EFG Finance revenues surged 66 per cent YoY to EGP1.8bn, driven by broad-based growth. Valu led with a 71 per cent YoY revenue increase, fueled by securitisation gains, higher fees, and a 60% rise in loan issuances to EG4.7bn. Tanmeyah and Corp-Solutions also saw growth, with Leasing's portfolio doubling to EGP17.7bn. Operating expenses jumped 82 per cent YoY to EGP1.2bn due to inflation-driven costs, higher provisions, increased staff costs, and one-time listing expenses. Net profit after tax and minority interest fell 15 per cent YoY to EGP230m, due to higher minority interest after Valu's share distribution and reduced ownership from 95 per cent to 67 per cent. Bank NXT delivered 30 per cent YoY revenue growth to EGP1.6bn, led by higher net interest income and interest-earning assets. Operating expenses rose 23 per cent YoY to EGP694m, offset by a 27 per cent decline in provisions and ECL. Net profit after tax and minority interest jumped 39 per cent YoY to EGP304m. Awad concluded: 'Amid ongoing geopolitical volatility and persistent macroeconomic headwinds, market dynamics across the MENA region remained varied, both in terms of liquidity and overall performance. Nonetheless, the Brokerage business delivered notable growth in total executions, driven primarily by robust activity in Kuwait and the UAE. Bank NXT continued to broaden its portfolio, diligently cultivating a strong base that will underpin future growth and generate lasting value. Anchored by a solid foundation, the firm is well-positioned to adeptly navigate changing market conditions and confidently capitalise on emerging opportunities for the benefit of clients and shareholders alike.'
