The profit growth was fueled by a 10.2% rise year-on-year (YoY) in net financing and investment income, thanks to better gross financing and investment income. However, gross financing and investment returns also went up.

On the other hand, total operating expenses including impairment charges for financing increased by 7.2% YoY due to higher depreciation expenses and salaries and employee benefits.
