Edmonton — ATB Financial announced robust first-quarter results for fiscal year 2025, highlighting significant loan and deposit growth. ATB Financial remains confident in its ability to navigate the current economic cycle and deliver sustained value to its clients and the province.
For the quarter ending June 30, 2024, ATB Financial reported total revenue of $534 million, a 7.2 per cent increase compared to the same period last year. This growth was primarily driven by a 7.9 per cent year-over-year increase in loans, reflecting the company’s unwavering support for the Alberta economy. Net loans reached $51.8 billion by the end of the quarter. Total deposits also rose by 4.4 per cent compared to the same period last year, reaching $42.1 billion.
Net income for the quarter was $105.0 million, a decrease from the previous year following strategic investments in personnel and technology to support future business growth. This decrease was partially offset by strong growth in other income, reaching $181.2 million, a 9.0 per cent increase year-over-year, driven by ATB Financial’s expanding advisory services for its business clients.
Additionally, the company reported $28.6 billion in assets under administration, underscoring its position as a leading investment firm.
Reinforcing its dedication to Alberta, ATB Financial paid its first-ever dividend of $25.0 million this quarter. This follows its February 2024 announcement of ATB being in a position to declare $100.0 million in total quarterly dividends to its Shareholder, the Alberta Government, for fiscal year 2025.
“ATB Financial serves as a catalyst for growth in Alberta by offering expert advice and personalised solutions to nearly 820,000 clients. With a solid balance sheet and a net loan portfolio nearing $52 billion—an increase of almost $4 billion from last year—ATB is one of the strongest regional banks in the industry,”said Curtis Stange, President and CEO, ATB Financial.
