Bank Alfalah kicked off 2025 with a solid first quarter, posting earnings of PKR 4.49/share — up by 52% compared to the previous quarter, thanks to lower effective taxation (55% vs. 72% last quarter).

Net interest income continued its upward trajectory, rising 5% compared to the previous quarter, reflecting improved current account and better yields.

Along with the result, the bank announced DPS of PKR 2.5, which was better than expected.
