HAMILTON, Bermuda – 17 May 2023 – In a filing with the Bermuda Stock Exchange (“BSX”), LOM Financial Limited (Ticker: LOM.BH) today announced the financial results for the fiscal year ending 31 December 2022. In a letter to shareholders, the Company’s CEO stated:
LOM is pleased to report full year 2022 profits of $1,883,951 or $0.37 per share. This decrease from the profit declared in 2021 is due to the extraordinary $7.1 million gain on securities in the 2021 financial year not being repeated. Outside of the extraordinary gain and losses in both years, our underlying operating profits between 2021 and 2022 rose 7% year on year from $2,326,110 to $2,482,615. Given the significant weakness in the global stock and bond markets during 2022 we are pleased with the result.
Below are the highlights of LOM’s financial performance during 2022.
Revenues had the following year-on-year changes:
· Management and advisory fee revenues were flat at $7.114 million (39% of revenues).
· Broking fees rose 10 % to $8.2 million (45% of revenues).
· Net interest earnings rose 202% to $1.673 million (9% of revenues).
· Foreign Exchange revenues fell 30% to $523,371
· Gain on securities held in inventory showed a loss of $598,664.
