Olympia Financial Group Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Nov 10, 2016) - Olympia Financial Group Inc. (TSX:OLY) today announced its operating and financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements and notes, as well as management's discussion and analysis, are now available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

Results from Operations, include the following (compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015):

  • Total revenue, including interest earned as trustee and interest, decreased 3% to $10.38 million from $10.68 million due to a decrease in service revenue. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest revenue.
  • Service revenue decreased 6% to $8.65 million from $9.17 million, primarily as a result of decreases in trade volume and transaction sizes in the Foreign Exchange division.
  • Interest earned as trustee on monies held in trust and interest on Olympia's own cash increased 15% to $1.74 million from $1.51 million as a result of an increase in off-balance sheet arrangements under administration.
  • Direct and administrative expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) decreased 1% to $8.48 million from $8.58 million, largely as a result of lower commissions and bonuses. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in costs incurred by the ATM division from an increase in business operations.
  • Other gains, net, increased more than 100% to $0.53 million from $(0.20) million, mainly due to Olympia recording a $0.55 million unrealized forward contract gain.
  • Earnings before income tax increased 29% to $2.06 million from $1.60 million.
