Economic Update
As we navigate through the fiscal year 2024, the 3QFY24 has shown a resilient economic
recovery marked by positive developments in economic and financial conditions. Despite a
tough fiscal year, each passing month has shown signs of improving overall economic
confidence.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for March clocked in at 20.68%, finally entering the positive
real interest rate territory both currently and on forward-looking basis. Despite the impact of
increased global oil prices leading to a rise in domestic fuel prices and frequent adjustments in
gas and power tariffs in line with IMF directives, inflation remains subdued. This reduction in
inflation is partly attributable to the high base effect from the previous year.
The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) opted to maintain the policy rate at 22% during its latest
Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting on March 18, 2024, adopting a cautious stance in
response to uncertainty regarding the inflation outlook.
Government’s fiscal performance has managed to surpass targets with a 33% year-on-year
increase in its tax collection up to Rs. 879 billion in March 2024. In the 9 months of FY24, FBR
has managed to collect PKR 6.7 trillion, a 30% increase compared to the previous year.
However, the fiscal deficit during Jul-Jan FY2024, increased to 2.6% of GDP, up from 2.3%
recorded last year. The government remains committed to prudent fiscal management by
The stock market has demonstrated remarkable performance, with sustained growth in the
index during the past five months. In March 2024, the Pakistan Stock Market (KSE100) reached
an all-time high of 67,307.63. Looking ahead, the investor sentiments maybe influenced by
upcoming events such as the announcement of new IMF program, forthcoming corporate
results, and the upcoming Monetary Policy on April 29, 2024.
Externally, the Current Account recorded a deficit of $1.0 billion for Jul-Feb FY2024, a
significant improvement from the $3.9 billion deficit reported last year, reflecting a positive shift
in the trade balance. In February 2024, the current account posted a surplus of $128 million
compared to a deficit of $50 million during the same period last year. Exports increased by
16.2% year-on-year to $2.6 billion in February 2024 as compared to $2.2 billion in February
2023 owing to ease in imports restriction and exchange rate stability which resulted in smooth
supply of raw material making room for economic activity in export-oriented industries. The YoY
imports also increased by 10.2% to $4.3 billion in February 2024 as compared to $3.9 billion in
the same month last year.
As we approach the final quarter of the fiscal year, maintaining the momentum of policy reforms
undertaken by the government is crucial for sustaining economic stability. Securing the new
IMF Extended Fund Facility (EFF) is essential to meet the increasing financing needs of the
economy and ensuring a stable trajectory forward.
Bank’s Performance
In 2023, the Board approved the establishment of Faysal Islami Currency Exchange Company
(Private) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of FBL. The bank injected initial paid-up capital of
PKR 1 billion during the year. The company received its “Certificate of Incorporation” from
SECP on January 16, 2024 and obtained an operational license from SBP on March 26, 2024.
Furthermore, the Bank adopted International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9 “Financial
Instruments” effective from January 1, 2024, the impact is given in note 4.1 of financial

Financing 576,313 580,711 (0.8)
Total Assets 1,474,484 1,370,074 7.6
Deposits 1,049,641 1,018,276 3.1
In Q1‘24, FBL continued its trajectory of success and has achieved remarkable financial
performance and recorded unprecedented growth despite challenges posed by the prevailing
economic conditions. On a standalone basis, Profit Before Tax (PBT) increased by 100.0% to
PKR 12.5 billion. FBL has achieved a Profit After Tax (PAT) of PKR 6.5 billion, double than PKR
3.2 billion in the corresponding quarter last year, with Earnings Per Share increasing from PKR
2.12 to PKR 4.29.
The Bank with continuing its growth trajectory, has increased total revenue by 50.1% over
Q1’23 to PKR 23.3 billion. This growth was driven by balance sheet expansion (Q1’24 vs Q1’23)
and an uptick in spreads, resulting in a 43.3% YoY increase in net spread earned taking it to
PKR 18.7 billion in Q1’24. Healthy growth in current deposits of PKR 55 billion (18.1%) YoY and
increase in the average benchmark rate helped improve the overall spreads. Non-fund income
grew by 85.4% over the corresponding quarter last year and is at PKR 4.7 billion in Q1’24. Fee
income also experienced uptick of 32.9%, reaching PKR 2.6 billion, with significant
contributions from trade and remittance business solidifying the Bank’s foothold in these key
businesses. Compared with the corresponding quarter of last year trade volumes registered an
exponential 155% increased while remittance volumes increased by 67%.
Due to double digit inflation, a volatile PKR relative to the USD, and an expanding branch
network, the bank's total expenses have risen by 36.3% over Q1'23. However, the cost to
income ratio has improved from 51.1% in Q1’23 to 46.42% in Q1’24. The net provision for Q1’24
was PKR 32 million, compared to a charge of PKR 1.4 billion in Q1’23. The NPL ratio is at 3.8%
with total coverage at 114.3%.
FBL’s total assets continued to grow, reaching PKR 1.5 trillion, driven by strong deposit
mobilization and increase due to borrowings from financial institutions. The upward trend in
Current Accounts seen over past few years continued taking them to PKR 360 billion i.e., 10.3%
growth over December 2023. Total deposits also increased by 3.1% over December 2023 and
is at PKR 1 trillion. The deposits market share is maintained at 3.7% in March 2024. Current
Account (CA) mix improved to 34.3% from 32.1% in December 2023 and CASA mix improved
to 78.4% from 75.0% in December 2023.
The Bank remained committed in achieving the given targets and creating sustainable value for
stakeholders. With a strong foundation and a strategic focus on growth, we are confident in our
ability to In Sha Allah, scale new heights in future.
Outlook
Looking forward, FBL is well-positioned with a good momentum envisaged in 2024. While we
remain optimistic, we also recognize the potential impact of prevailing economic conditions and
persistent inflation on both our operations and our customers. As part of our strategic vision,
the Bank is committed to expanding its branch network to stimulate deposit growth. We are
actively pursuing initiatives to enhance our customer service experience. Moreover, we are
dedicated to staying at the forefront of technological advancements, investing in cutting-edge

briefly explained in note 6.5 to the annual audited unconsolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2023.
The purchases and sales arising under these arrangements are not reflected in these unconsolidated financial
statements as such but are restricted to the amount of facility actually utilized and the appropriate portion of
profit thereon. The income on such financing is recognised in accordance with the principles of Islamic
Shariah. However, income, if any, received which does not comply with the principles of Islamic Shariah is

Exchange Company (Private) Limited and is required to prepare consolidated financial statements under the
provisions of the Companies Act, 2017. These condensed interim financial statements represent the

are also being presented by the Bank.
3 STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
3.1 These condensed interim unconsolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan. The accounting and reporting standards
applicable in Pakistan comprise of:
- International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as notified under the Companies Act, 2017;

Pakistan (SECP).
Whenever the requirements of the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 or the
directives issued by the SBP and the SECP differ with the requirements of IFRS or IFAS, the requirements of
the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 and the said directives shall prevail.
3.2 As per the directive of the SBP through its letter BPRD (R&P-02)/625-99/2011/3744 dated March 28, 2011,

The material accounting policies applied in preparation of these condensed interim unconsolidated financial
statements are the same as applied in the preparation of annual unconsolidated financial statements of the
Bank for the year ended December 31, 2023 except for the following:
During the period, as directed by the SBP vide its BPRD Circular No. 07 of 2023 dated April 13, 2023, IFRS 9:
‘Financial Instruments' became applicable to the Bank. IFRS 9 replaces the existing guidance in IAS 39
Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard addresses recognition, classification,
measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard has also introduced a
new impairment model for financial assets which requires recognition of impairment charge based on
‘expected credit losses' (ECL) approach rather than ‘incurred credit losses' approach as previously followed.
The ECL has impact on all the assets of the Bank which are exposed to credit risk.
The Bank has adopted IFRS 9 from January 1, 2024, using the modified retrospective approach and has not
restated comparatives for the 2023 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in
the standard.
IFRS 9 brings fundamental changes to the accounting for financial assets and to certain aspects of the
accounting for financial liabilities:
Under the new standard, classification and measurement of financial assets depends on how these are
managed based on business model and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Financial assets that do
not meet the Solely Payment of Principal and Interest (SPPI) criteria are required to be measured at fair value
through profit or loss regardless of the business model in which they are held.
Financial liabilities are either classified as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), when they are held for
trading purposes, or at amortised cost. Financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are measured at fair value.
Financial liabilities classified at amortised cost are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured
using the effective interest rate method.
Equity Securities
Quoted equity shares amounting to Rs. 3,049.251 million have been classified as FVTPL. Gains and losses on
disposal of securities classified as FVTPL will be recycled through the profit and loss account.
The Bank has elected to designate equity shares of Rs. 3,929.093 million as fair value through other
comprehensive income (FVOCI) as permitted under IFRS 9. These securities were previously classified as
available-for-sale (AFS). The changes in fair value of such securities will no longer be reclassified to profit or
loss when they are disposed off.
Unquoted equity shares are also required to be measured at fair value under IFRS 9. The fair value of these
securities are determined as per adjusted net asset method valuation as these securities are neither listed nor
market prices are available. Fair value gains or losses has been recognized directly in equity through OCI.
Debt securities currently classified as AFS and passing the SPPI test are measured at FVOCI under IFRS 9 as
the Bank’s business model is to hold these assets to collect contractual cash flows and sell the investments.
Debt securities currently classified as held-to-maturity (HTM) and passing the SPPI test are measured at
amortized cost under IFRS 9 as the Bank’s business model is to hold these assets to collect contractual cash
flows.
Debt securities that do not pass the SPPI test measured at FVTPL.
Impairment
The impairment requirements apply to financial assets measured at amortized cost and FVOCI (other than
equity instruments), lease receivables, and certain financing commitments and financial guarantee contracts.
At initial recognition, an impairment allowance (or provision in the case of commitments and guarantees) is
required for expected credit losses (‘ECL’) resulting from default events that are possible within the next 12
months (‘12-month ECL’). In the event of a significant increase in credit risk, a provision is required for ECL
resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial instrument (‘lifetime ECL’).
Financial assets where 12-month ECL is recognized are in ‘Stage 1'; financial assets that are considered to
have experienced a significant increase in credit risk are in ‘Stage 2'; and financial assets for which there is
objective evidence of impairment, so are considered to be in default or otherwise credit impaired, are in ‘Stage
3'. Under the SBP’s instructions, the Bank is not required to compute ECL on Government Securities and on
Government guaranteed credit exposure in local currency.
Based on the requirements of IFRS 9 and SBP's IFRS 9 application instructions, the Bank has performed an
ECL assessment considering the following key elements:
- PD: The probability that a counterparty will default over the next 12 months from the reporting date (12-
month ECL, Stage1) or over the lifetime of the product (lifetime ECL, Stage 2).
- EAD: The expected balance sheet exposure at the time of default, incorporating expectations on
drawdowns, amortization, pre-payments and forward-looking information where relevant.
- LGD: An estimate of the loss incurred on a facility upon default by a customer. LGD is calculated as
the difference between contractual cash flows due and those that the Bank expects to receive,
including from the liquidation of any form of collateral. It is expressed as a percentage of the exposure
outstanding on the date of classification of an obligor.
A SICR is assessed in the context of an increase in the risk of a default occurring over the life of the financial
instrument when compared to that expected at the time of initial recognition. It is not assessed in the context
of an increase in the ECL. The Bank used several qualitative and quantitative measures in assessing SICR.
Quantitative measures relate to deterioration of Obligor Risk Ratings (ORR) or where principal and / or profit
payments are 60 days or more past due. Qualitative factors include unavailability of financial information and
pending litigations.
The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) through its BPRD Circular No. 02 dated February 9, 2023 and BPRD Circular
Letter No. 07 of 2023 dated April 13, 2023 has amended the format of quarterly and half yearly financial
statements of banks. All banks are directed to prepare their quarterly and half yearly financial statements on
the revised format effective from accounting year starting from January 1, 2024. Accordingly, the Bank has
prepared these condensed interim unconsolidated financial statements on the new format prescribed by the
SBP.
- Right-of-use-assets (note 15) amounting to Rs 10,500.360 million (December 31, 2023: Rs 10,713.046
million) which were previously shown as part of fixed assets are now shown separately on the
unconsolidated statement of financial position.
- Lease liabilities (note 21) amounting to Rs 12,825.722 million (December 31, 2023: Rs 12,868.103
million) which were previously shown as part of other liabilities (note 23) are now shown separately on
the unconsolidated statement of financial position.
5 BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
These condensed interim unconsolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention except for certain property and equipment and non-banking assets acquired in satisfaction of
claims which have been carried at revalued amounts, certain investments and derivative contracts which have
been marked to market and are carried at fair value, obligations in respect of staff retirement benefits and
lease liabilities which have been carried at present value and right-of-use assets which are initially measured
at an amount equal to the corresponding lease liabilities (adjusted for any lease payments and costs) and
depreciated over the respective lease terms.
6.1 Items included in these condensed interim unconsolidated financial statements are measured using the
currency of the primary economic environment in which the Bank operates. These condensed interim
unconsolidated financial statements are presented in Pakistani Rupees, which is the Bank's functional and
presentation currency.
6.2 Figures have been rounded off to the nearest thousand of rupees unless otherwise stated.
The basis for accounting estimates adopted in the preparation of these condensed interim unconsolidated
financial statements is the same as that applied in the preparation of the unconsolidated financial statements
of the Bank for the year ended December 31, 2023 except for measurement of the expected credit loss
allowance and fair value of unlisted equity securities.
The financial risk management objectives and policies adopted by the Bank are consistent with those
disclosed in the annual audited unconsolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

25.3 Other contingent liabilities
25.3.1 Income tax assessments of the Bank have been finalised upto the tax year 2023 (accounting year ended
December 31, 2022). Income tax return for tax year 2024 (accounting year ended December 31, 2023) will be
filed by the Bank within stipulated timeline.
The department and the Bank has disagreement on a matter relating to taxability of gain on bargain purchase
on the acquisition of ex-RBS Pakistan. The additional tax liability on the matter amounts to Rs. 1,154.701
million (December 31, 2023: Rs. 1,154.701 million). The Commissioner Inland Revenue (Appeals) [CIR(A)] had
deleted the said additional tax liability, however the income tax department had filed an appeal with the
Appellate Tribunal Inland Revenue (ATIR) against the order of CIR(A). During the current period, the ATIR
passed an order and maintained the decision of the CIR(A) in favour of the Bank that gain on bargain
purchase is not taxable. Subsequently, the department has challenged the order in Honorable High Court of
Sindh. However, the management of the Bank is confident that the matter will be decided in the Bank's favour
and accordingly, no provision has been recorded in these condensed interim unconsolidated financial
statements in respect of this matter.
25.4 There are certain claims against the Bank not acknowledged as debt amounting to Rs 33,605.629 million
(December 31, 2023: Rs 29,647.217 million). These mainly represent counter claims filed by the borrowers for
restricting the Bank from disposal of assets (such as mortgaged / pledged assets kept as security), cases
where the Bank was proforma defendant for defending its interest in the underlying collateral kept by it at the
time of financing, certain cases filed by ex-employees of the Bank for damages sustained by them
consequent to the termination from the Bank's employment and cases for damages towards opportunity
losses suffered by the customers due to non-disbursements of running finance facility as per the agreed
terms. The above also includes an amount of Rs 25,299.030 million (December 31, 2023: 25,299.030 million)
in respect of a suit filed against the Bank for declaration, recovery of monies, release of securities, rendition of
account and damages.
Based on legal advice and / or internal assessments, the management is confident that the above matters will
be decided in the Bank's favour and accordingly no provision has been made in these condensed interim
unconsolidated financial statements.
The Bank makes commitments to extend credit (including to related parties) in the normal course of its
business but these being revocable commitments do not attract any significant penalty or expense if the
facilities are unilaterally withdrawn except for Rs. 4,008.151 million (December 2023: Rs. 3,429.739 million)
which are irrevocable in nature.

36.1 Diluted earnings per share has not been presented as the Bank does not have any convertible instruments in
issue at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 which would have any effect on the earnings per share if the
option to convert is exercised.
The fair value of quoted securities other than those classified under held to collect model, is based on quoted
market price. Quoted securities classified under held to collect model are carried at amortized cost. The fair
value of unquoted equity securities, other than investments in associates and subsidiaries, is determined on
the basis of adjusted net asset method as per their latest available financial statements.
The fair value of unquoted debt securities, fixed term loans, other assets, other liabilities, fixed term deposits
and borrowings cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to the absence of a current and active
market for these assets and liabilities and reliable data regarding market rates for similar instruments.
The Bank measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the
inputs used in making the measurements:
Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).
Level 3: Fair value measurements using input for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
market data (i.e. unobservable inputs).
The table below analyses financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period by the level in the
fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorised:
The Bank's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of the different fair value hierarchy levels at the date
when the event or change in circumstances require the Bank to exercise such transfers.
Fair values of Sukuk certificates are determined using the MUFAP or PSX
Sukuk Certificates rates.
Forward foreign The valuation has been determined by interpolating the mark-to-market
exchange contracts currency rates announced by the State Bank of Pakistan.
Units of mutual funds are valued using the net asset value (NAV)
Mutual funds
announced by the Mutual Funds Association of Pakistan (MUFAP).
Valuation techniques used in determination of fair valuation of financial instruments within level 3
Non-banking assets NBAs are valued by professionally qualified valuers as per the accounting
(NBAs) acquired in policy disclosed in the unconsolidated financial statements of the Bank for
satisfaction of claims the year ended December 31, 2023.
The valuations, mentioned above, are conducted by the valuation experts appointed by the Bank which are
also on the panel of the Pakistan Banks' Association (PBA). The valuation experts use a market based
approach to arrive at the fair value of the Bank’s properties. The market approach uses prices and other
relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable or similar properties.
These values are adjusted to reflect the current condition of the properties. The effect of changes in the
unobservable inputs used in the valuations cannot be determined with certainty, accordingly a quantitative
disclosure of sensitivity has not been presented in these condensed interim unconsolidated financial
statements.

2.1 The Group provides financing mainly through Murabaha, Musawammah, Istisna and other Islamic modes as
briefly explained in note 6.5 to in the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2023.
The purchases and sales arising under these arrangements are not reflected in these consolidated financial
statements as such but are restricted to the amount of facility actually utilized and the appropriate portion of
profit thereon. The income on such financing is recognised in accordance with the principles of Islamic
Shariah. However, income, if any, received which does not comply with the principles of Islamic Shariah is
recognised as charity payable if so directed by the Shariah Board of the Group.
3 BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Bank and the financial
statements of the Subsidiary Company from the date from which control of the Subsidiary Company by the
Group commences until the date on which control ceases. The financial statements of the Subsidiary
Company are incorporated on a line-by-line basis and the investment held by the Bank is eliminated against
the corresponding share capital and pre-acquisition reserve of the Subsidiary Company in the consolidated
financial statements.
The financial statements of the Subsidiary Company are prepared for the same reporting period as the
Holding Company, using accounting policies that are generally consistent with those of the Holding Company.
Associates are those entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial
and operating policies. Joint ventures are those entities over whose activities the Group has joint control
established by contractual agreement. Associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity
method.
4 STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
4.1 These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
accounting and reporting standards as applicable in Pakistan. The accounting and reporting standards
applicable in Pakistan comprise of:
- International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as notified under the Companies Act, 2017;
- Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (IFAS) issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Pakistan as are notified under the Companies Act, 2017.
- Provisions of, and directives issued under the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962 and the
Companies Act, 2017, and
- Directives issued by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and the Securities and Exchange Commission of
Pakistan (SECP).
Whenever the requirements of the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 or the
directives issued by the SBP and the SECP differ with the requirements of IFRS or IFAS, the requirements of
the Banking Companies Ordinance, 1962, the Companies Act, 2017 and the said directives shall prevail.
4.2 As per the directive of the SBP through its letter BPRD (R&P-02)/625-99/2011/3744 dated March 28, 2011,
gain arising on bargain purchase of Pakistan operations of Royal Bank of Scotland (ex-RBS Pakistan) was
credited directly into equity as Non-distributable Capital Reserve (NCR). The SBP allowed the Group to adjust
the amortisation of intangible assets against the portion of reserve which arose on account of such assets
identified as a result of such acquisition. Accordingly, during the period ended March 31, 2024, the Group has
adjusted amortisation of intangible assets net of tax amounting to Rs. 10.471 million (period ended March 31,
2023: Rs. 11.704 million) from the NCR.
4.3 These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures

All efforts are being put in to convert or dispose-off the residual portfolio and appropriate monitoring

The material accounting policies applied in preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial
statements are the same as applied in the preparation of annual consolidated financial statements of the
Group for the year ended December 31, 2023 except for the following:
During the period, as directed by the SBP vide its BPRD Circular No. 07 of 2023 dated April 13, 2023, IFRS 9:
‘Financial Instruments' became applicable to the Bank. IFRS 9 replaces the existing guidance in IAS 39
Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The standard addresses recognition, classification,
measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities. The standard has also introduced a
new impairment model for financial assets which requires recognition of impairment charge based on
‘expected credit losses' (ECL) approach rather than ‘incurred credit losses' approach as previously followed.
The ECL has impact on all the assets of the Group which are exposed to credit risk.
The Group has adopted IFRS 9 from January 1, 2024, using the modified retrospective approach and has not
restated comparatives for the 2023 reporting period, as permitted under the specific transitional provisions in
the standard.
IFRS 9 brings fundamental changes to the accounting for financial assets and to certain aspects of the
accounting for financial liabilities:
Under the new standard, classification and measurement of financial assets depends on how these are
managed based on business model and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Financial assets that do
not meet the Solely Payment of Principal and Interest (SPPI) criteria are required to be measured at fair value
through profit or loss regardless of the business model in which they are held.
Financial liabilities are either classified as fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), when they are held for
trading purposes, or at amortised cost. Financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are measured at fair value.
Financial liabilities classified at amortised cost are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured
using the effective interest rate method.
Equity Securities
Quoted equity shares amounting to Rs. 3,049.251 million have been classified as FVTPL. Gains and losses on
disposal of securities classified as FVTPL will be recycled through the profit and loss account.
The Holding Company has elected to designate equity shares of Rs. 3,929.093 million as fair value through
other comprehensive income (FVOCI) as permitted under IFRS 9. These securities were previously classified
as available-for-sale (AFS). The changes in fair value of such securities will no longer be reclassified to profit
or loss when they are disposed off.
Unquoted equity shares are also required to be measured at fair value under IFRS 9. The fair value of these
securities are determined as per adjusted net asset method valuation as these securities are neither listed nor
market prices are available. Fair value gains or losses has been recognized directly in equity through OCI.
Debt securities currently classified as AFS and passing the SPPI test are measured at FVOCI under IFRS 9 as
the Group’s business model is to hold these assets to collect contractual cash flows and sell the investments.
Debt securities currently classified as held-to-maturity (HTM) and passing the SPPI test are measured at
amortized cost under IFRS 9 as the Group’s business model is to hold these assets to collect contractual cash
flows.
Debt securities that do not pass the SPPI test are measured at FVTPL.
Impairment
The impairment requirements apply to financial assets measured at amortized cost and FVOCI (other than
equity instruments), lease receivables, and certain financing commitments and financial guarantee contracts.
At initial recognition, an impairment allowance (or provision in the case of commitments and guarantees) is
required for expected credit losses (‘ECL’) resulting from default events that are possible within the next 12
months (‘12-month ECL’). In the event of a significant increase in credit risk, a provision is required for ECL
resulting from all possible default events over the expected life of the financial instrument (‘lifetime ECL’).
Financial assets where 12-month ECL is recognized are in ‘Stage 1'; financial assets that are considered to
have experienced a significant increase in credit risk are in ‘Stage 2'; and financial assets for which there is
objective evidence of impairment, so are considered to be in default or otherwise credit impaired, are in ‘Stage
3'. Under the SBP’s instructions, the Group is not required to compute ECL on Government Securities and on
Government guaranteed credit exposure in local currency.
Based on the requirements of IFRS 9 and SBP's IFRS 9 application instructions, the Group has performed an
ECL assessment considering the following key elements:
- PD: The probability that a counterparty will default over the next 12 months from the reporting date (12-
month ECL, Stage1) or over the lifetime of the product (lifetime ECL, Stage 2).
- EAD: The expected balance sheet exposure at the time of default, incorporating expectations on
drawdowns, amortization, pre-payments and forward-looking information where relevant.
- LGD: An estimate of the loss incurred on a facility upon default by a customer. LGD is calculated as
the difference between contractual cash flows due and those that the Group expects to receive,
including from the liquidation of any form of collateral. It is expressed as a percentage of the exposure
outstanding on the date of classification of an obligor.
A SICR is assessed in the context of an increase in the risk of a default occurring over the life of the financial
instrument when compared to that expected at the time of initial recognition. It is not assessed in the context
of an increase in the ECL. The Group used several qualitative and quantitative measures in assessing SICR.
Quantitative measures relate to deterioration of Obligor Risk Ratings (ORR) or where principal and / or profit
payments are 60 days or more past due. Qualitative factors include unavailability of financial information and
pending litigations.
The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) through its BPRD Circular No. 02 dated February 9, 2023 and BPRD Circular
Letter No. 07 of 2023 dated April 13, 2023 has amended the format of quarterly and half yearly financial
statements of banks. All banks are directed to prepare their quarterly and half yearly financial statements on
the revised format effective from accounting year starting from January 1, 2024. Accordingly, the Group has
prepared these condensed interim consolidated financial statements on the new format prescribed by the
SBP.
- Right-of-use-assets (note 16) amounting to Rs 10,550.392 million (December 31, 2023: Rs 10,771.515
million) which were previously shown as part of fixed assets are now shown separately on the
consolidated statement of financial position.
- Lease liabilities (note 22) amounting to Rs 12,870.818 million (December 31, 2023: Rs 12,865.125
million) which were previously shown as part of other liabilities (note 24) are now shown separately on
the consolidated statement of financial position.
6 BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention except for certain fixed assets and non-banking assets acquired in satisfaction of claims which
have been carried at revalued amounts, certain investments and derivative contracts which have been
marked to market and are carried at fair value, obligations in respect of staff retirement benefits and lease
liabilities which have been carried at present value and right-of-use assets which are initially measured at an
amount equal to the corresponding lease liabilities (adjusted for any lease payments and costs) and
depreciated over the respective lease terms.
7.1 Items included in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. These condensed interim consolidated
financial statements are presented in Pakistani Rupees, which is the Group's functional and presentation
currency.
7.2 Figures have been rounded off to the nearest thousand of rupees unless otherwise stated.
The basis for accounting estimates adopted in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated
financial statements is the same as that applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of
the Group for the year ended December 31, 2023 except for measurement of the expected credit loss
allowance and fair value of unlisted equity securities.
The financial risk management objectives and policies adopted by the Group are consistent with those
disclosed in the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

26.2.1 Commitments in respect of forward foreign exchange contracts
(i) Income tax assessments of the Holding Company have been finalised upto the tax year 2023
(accounting year ended December 31, 2022). Income tax return for tax year 2024 (accounting year
ended December 31, 2023) will be filed by the Holding Company within stipulated timeline.
The department and the Holding Company has disagreement on a matter relating to taxability of gain
on bargain purchase on the acquisition of ex-RBS Pakistan. The additional tax liability on the matter
amounts to Rs. 1,154.701 million (December 31, 2023: Rs. 1,154.701 million). The Commissioner
Inland Revenue (Appeals) [CIR(A)] had deleted the said additional tax liability, however the income tax
department had filed an appeal with the Appellate Tribunal Inland Revenue (ATIR) against the order of
CIR(A). During the current period, the ATIR passed an order and maintained the decision of the CIR(A)
in favour of the Holding Company that gain on bargain purchase is not taxable. Subsequently, the
department has challenged the order in Honorable High Court of Sindh. However, the management of
the Holding Company is confident that the matter will be decided in the Holding Company's favour and
accordingly, no provision has been recorded in these condensed interim consolidated financial
statements in respect of this matter.
(ii) There are certain claims against the Holding Company not acknowledged as debt amounting to
Rs 33,605.629 million (December 31, 2023: Rs 29,647.217 million). These mainly represent counter
claims filed by the borrowers for restricting the Holding Company from disposal of assets (such as
mortgaged / pledged assets kept as security), cases where the Holding Company was proforma
defendant for defending its interest in the underlying collateral kept by it at the time of financing,
certain cases filed by ex-employees of the Holding Company for damages sustained by them
consequent to the termination from the Holding Company's employment and cases for damages
towards opportunity losses suffered by the customers due to non-disbursements of running finance
facility as per the agreed terms. The above also includes an amount of Rs 25,299.030 million
(December 31, 2023: 25,299.030 million) in respect of a suit filed against the Bank for declaration,
recovery of monies, release of securities, rendition of account and damages.
Based on legal advice and / or internal assessments, the management is confident that the above
matters will be decided in the Holding Company's favour and accordingly no provision has been made
in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
(i) The income tax returns of the Subsidiary Company for the tax years 2004 to 2020 (financial year ended
June 30, 2004 to December 31, 2019) have been filed and are deemed to have been assessed under
the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, unless selected by the taxation authorities for audit purposes. The
Tax year 2005 (financial year ended June 30, 2005) has been selected by the taxation authorities for
audit purpose. The tax authorities have passed an order under section 221 of the Income Tax
Ordinance, 2001, whereby they have determined an additional liability of Rs. 0.913 million for the tax
year 2005 on account of apportionment of expenses and disallowance of certain expenses. The
Subsidiary Company has paid Rs. 0.414 million and has filed an appeal against the order before the
Commissioner Appeals, the proceedings of which are underway. The remaining tax liability on these
matters is Rs. 0.498 million. The management of the Subsidiary Company is confident that the decision
in respect of these matters will be decided in the Subsidiary Company's favour and accordingly no
provision for the above has been made in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements
in respect of this liability.
(ii) The income tax department has issued orders and show cause notices under section 221 of the
Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 for recovery of Workers Welfare Fund (WWF) aggregating to Rs 0.818
million in respect of tax years 2008 and 2013. The details of orders and show cause along with the
management actions are listed below:
The management is of the view that WWF was not applicable for tax year 2008. In tax year 2013,
subsequent to clarification decision by the SHC, the management has not admitted WWF charge in the
annual return of income. The management of the Subsidiary Company is confident that the decision in
respect of these matters will be decided in the Subsidiary Company's favour and accordingly no
provision for the above has been made in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements
in respect of this liability.
(iii) The Punjab Revenue Authority issued show cause notice No.PRA/AM/61/2205/ dated March 12, 2014
to Faysal Asset Management Limited requiring the Subsidiary Company to obtain registration /
enrolment and to pay sales tax amounting to Rs. 6.055 million from July 2013 to March 2014 under the
Punjab Sales Tax on Services Act, 2012 with effect from May 22, 2013 on management fee earned in
Punjab.
In respect of this, the Subsidiary Company, jointly with other Asset Management Companies together
with their respective collective investment schemes through their trustees, has filed a petition on July 8,
2014 in the SHC challenging the above notice. The Court has ordered suspension of the show cause
notice till the next hearing of appeal in their order dated July 10, 2014. The next date of hearing has not
yet been decided. The management of the Subsidiary Company is confident that the decision in
respect of these matters will be decided in the Subsidiary Company's favour and accordingly no
provision for the above has been made in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements
in respect of this liability.
(iv) During the prior period, the audit of the tax year 2013 (financial year ended June 30, 2013) was
completed by the taxation authorities. The tax authorities have passed an order under section 122(5A)
of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, whereby they have determined an additional liability of Rs. 4.964
million for the tax year 2013 on account of apportionment of expenses, salary expenses and hardware
and software expense. The management filed an appeal before the Commissioner Inland Revenue
(Appeals) [CIR(A)] on the grounds of disallowances made by the Additional Commissioner Inland
Revenue. The CIR(A) remanded back a few expenses while ordered against various other expenses
for which the Subsidiary Company has decided to appeal before the Appellate Tribunal Inland
Revenue (ATIR). The management of the Subsidiary Company is confident that the decision in respect
of these matters will be decided in the Subsidiary Company's favour and accordingly no provision for
the above has been made in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in respect of
this liability.
(v) During the year ended December 31, 2020, the audit of the tax year 2014 (financial year ended June
30, 2014) was completed by the taxation authorities. The tax authorities have passed an order under
section 122(5A) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, whereby they have determined an additional
liability of Rs. 2.673 million for the tax year 2014 on account of apportionment of expenses, time barred
payables, expenses claimed on provisional basis, salary expenses, marketing and advertising
expenses, brokerage and commission expenses, legal and professional charges and hardware and
software expenses. The management had decided to file an appeal before the Commissioner Inland
Revenue (Appeals) [CIR(A)] on the grounds of disallowances made by the Additional Commissioner
Inland Revenue. During the current period the CIR(A) issued an order whereby the earlier order
passed by the tax authorities under section 122(5A) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001, has been
annulled on the basis of being time barred, and consequentially the demand for additional liability has
been relinquished. The management has decided to file an appeal before the Appellate Tribunal Inland
Revenue (ATIR) to contest the order passed by DCIR. The management of the Subsidiary Company is
confident that the decision in respect of these matters will be decided in the Subsidiary Company's
favour and accordingly no provision for the above has been made in these condensed interim
consolidated financial statements in respect of this liability.
(vi) During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Deputy Commissioner Inland Revenue (DCIR) has
passed an order under section 182(1) of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 for the tax year 2018,
whereby the DCIR has imposed a penalty of Rs. 0.833 million on account of non submission of
statement required to be filed by the Subsidiary Company under bilateral or multilateral convention
under section 165B of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001. The management has filed an appeal before
the CIR(A) on the subject matter and has paid an amount of Rs 0.083 million being 10% of the total
amount of penalty imposed under the order and has thus obtained an automatic stay on the subject
matter. The management of the Subsidiary Company is confident that the matter will be decided in the
Subsidiary Company's favour and accordingly no provision in respect of this penalty has been made in
these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
The Holding Company makes commitments to extend credit (including to related parties) in the normal course
of its business but these being revocable commitments do not attract any significant penalty or expense if the
facilities are unilaterally withdrawn except for Rs. 4,008.151 million (December 2023: Rs. 3,430.739 million)
which are irrevocable in nature.

37.1 Diluted earnings per share has not been presented as the Group does not have any convertible instruments in
issue at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 which would have any effect on the earnings per share if the
option to convert is exercised.
The fair value of quoted securities other than those classified under held to collect model, is based on quoted
market price. Quoted securities classified under held to collect model are carried at amortized cost. The fair
value of unquoted equity securities, other than investments in associates and subsidiaries, is determined on
the basis of adjusted net asset method as per their latest available financial statements.
The fair value of unquoted debt securities, fixed term loans, other assets, other liabilities, fixed term deposits
and borrowings cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability due to the absence of a current and active
market for these assets and liabilities and reliable data regarding market rates for similar instruments.
The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the
inputs used in making the measurements:
Level 1: Fair value measurements using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2: Fair value measurements using inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from
prices).
Level 3: Fair value measurements using input for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
market data (i.e. unobservable inputs).
The table below analyses financial instruments measured at the end of the reporting period by the level in the
fair value hierarchy into which the fair value measurement is categorised:
The Group's policy is to recognise transfers into and out of the different fair value hierarchy levels at the date
when the event or change in circumstances require the Bank to exercise such transfers.
Fair values of Sukuk certificates are determined using the MUFAP or PSX
Sukuk Certificates rates.
Forward foreign The valuation has been determined by interpolating the mark-to-market
exchange contracts currency rates announced by the State Bank of Pakistan.
Units of mutual funds are valued using the net asset value (NAV)
Mutual funds
announced by the Mutual Funds Association of Pakistan (MUFAP).
Valuation techniques used in determination of fair valuation of financial instruments within level 3
Non-banking assets NBAs are valued by professionally qualified valuers as per the accounting
(NBAs) acquired in policy disclosed in the unconsolidated financial statements of the Bank for
satisfaction of claims the year ended December 31, 2023.
The valuations, mentioned above, are conducted by the valuation experts appointed by the Holding Company
which are also on the panel of the Pakistan Banks' Association (PBA). The valuation experts use a market
based approach to arrive at the fair value of the Holding Company’s properties. The market approach uses
prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable or
similar properties. These values are adjusted to reflect the current condition of the properties. The effect of
changes in the unobservable inputs used in the valuations cannot be determined with certainty, accordingly a
quantitative disclosure of sensitivity has not been presented in these condensed interim consolidated financial
statements.
