Summary
The group is pleased to announce a significant turn-around in operational performance,
recording an attributable loss of US$0.6 million; a significant improvement from the reported
loss of US$48.6 million in 2014.
Statement of financial position
The statement of financial position remained stable at US$1.8 billion, compared with December
2014. Loans and deposits declined marginally to US$1.18 billion and US$1.39 billion respectively,
with currency depreciation across the markets BancABC operates in, contributing to this
marginal decline.
Net interest income
Net interest income of US$95.8 million is lower than the US$102.1 million in 2014, due to
marginal decline in loans and advances as well as currency depreciation.
Non-interest income
Non-interest income of US$76.6 million was up 10.5% compared to 2014, largely driven by
strong forex trading revenue, as well as growth in fee and commission revenues that has
largely resulted from retail asset growth.

Credit impairments
The impairment charge of US$11.4 million in 2015 was substantially lower than the
US$72.2 million in 2014, mainly due to significant asset recoveries in Zimbabwe and
Tanzania.
Asset quality
The group remains focused on improving the quality of the loan book. Total non-
performing loans declined marginally to US$198 million in 2015 (2014: US$202 million). The
adequacy of provisioning for all risks within the loan book is considered sufficient given
the assessment of risk in the asset book.
Capitalisation
As at December 2015, all individual subsidiaries reported a capitalised position compliant
with regulatory requirements.
Change in functional currency
Owing to the change in the underlying business following the acquisition of ABC
Holdings Limited by Atlas Mara Limited, with effect from 1 July 2015 the group changed
its functional currency from Botswana pula, to United States dollar.
The group will continue to present some financial information in dual presentation
currencies (the other currency being Botswana Pula).
Outlook
While challenging, the first year of the acquisition has been met with considered success,
and the group continues its focus on the execution of key initiatives that will continue to
support improved performance.
Acknowledgment
We express our appreciation for the continued support of our customers, investors, the
Board, management and staff, and regulators in the markets in which we operate.
