RIYADH: Riyad Bank has seen its profit soar by 13 percent to SR5 billion ($1.3 billion) in the first nine months of 2022, sending its stock higher.

The bank saw its shares increase 1.70 percent at 10:08 a.m. Saudi time to reach SR36.

This is up from SR4 billion in the same period a year ago, according to a bourse filing.

The profit hike was buoyed by higher operating income, due to an increase in earnings from net special commissions, fees and commissions, and exchanges, the bank said.
