    Jeevan Bikas Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited Reports a 46.1% Decline in Net Profit in Q3 FY 2079/2080


    Jeevan Bikas Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited (JBLB), a microfinance company in Nepal, recently released its third-quarter report for the fiscal year 2079/2080. The report indicated a decline in net profit by 46.1% to Rs. 32.92 crore compared to the same period in the previous year, which was Rs. 61.09 crore. The company attributed the decline in net profit to the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected its business operations and borrowers’ repayment capabilities.

    Despite the decline in net profit, JBLB showed some positive trends in other areas. The company’s borrowings decreased by 8.02% to Rs. 8.70 Arba, while deposits increased by 4.85% to Rs. 10 Arba. This increase in deposits could be due to increased trust and confidence from depositors in the company’s financial stability and sound management practices.

    Furthermore, JBLB’s loans and advances decreased by 41.19% to Rs. 22.45 Arba. This reduction could be due to the company’s cautious approach in lending and disbursement amid the pandemic, which has created financial uncertainties for many of its borrowers. However, this decline in loans and advances could also impact the company’s future growth and profitability, as it relies heavily on its loan portfolio.

    The net interest income (core revenue) decreased by 5.54% to Rs. 1.19 Arba compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The company may have experienced a reduction in interest income due to the decrease in loans and advances, as well as the decrease in the lending rate amid the pandemic.

    Despite the decline in net profit, JBLB’s paid-up capital increased to Rs. 1.18 Arba, and its reserve increased by 14.96% to Rs. 1.09 Arba in this quarter. This increase in paid-up capital and reserve indicates the company’s ability to attract investments and retain earnings, which could help boost its future growth and stability.

    JBLB’s annualized earnings per share (EPS) stood at Rs. 37.14, while its net worth per share is Rs. 261.45. The company is currently trading at a P/E multiple of 40.53 times, indicating that investors may have confidence in the company’s long-term prospects, despite the short-term challenges brought on by the pandemic.

    In conclusion, Jeevan Bikas Laghubitta Bittiya Sanstha Limited (JBLB) reported a decline in net profit for the third quarter of FY 2079/2080, largely due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the company showed some positive trends, such as an increase in deposits and paid-up capital, which could help support its future growth and profitability.
