The Earnings Per Share has also risen from AED 0,345 by end of March 2005 to AED 1,302 by end of March 2006, a growth rate of 277%

This remarkable growth in profit comes as result of the expansion plans and growth in assets the bank had adopted earlier last year, where the Total assets has grown by 105% amounting to AED 30,50 billion in Q1 2006 compared to AED 14,90 billion in Q1 2005, all excluding IPO accounts.

The rise is resulted from diversified income from various products, innovative banking services, sturdy customer base and business expansion.

All the above figures are considered primary till they have finally been approved by the U.A.E. Central Bank as per the rules and regulations in the U.A.E.

The Managing Director of Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, Mr. Ahmed Darweesh Al Marar, stated that the distinctive performance of the bank came as a result of integrated efforts by all its employees, customers’ confidence, reputation of being a leading local Islamic bank, the expansion and development plan in U.A.E. and financing vital projects which have always reflected profits for shareholders and all other national sector, assuring the bank’s tight conjunction with the local market business entities and organizations.
