The United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, Monday, January 08, 2024, exceeded market capitalisation of over N1 trillion.

The bank joined the elite group of companies with N1trillion capitalisation just as its share price value hits N29.90 per share.

At the close of trading on Monday, the bank’s market cap­italisation hit N1,022,562,698,843, making it the 3rd most capitalised financial institution in Nigeria, a remarkable lift from N283.8 billion at the beginning of the 2023.

The bank has 34,199,421,366 shares in issue.

UBA’s N1 trillion market cap­italisation mark comes amid the bank’s share being named as the highest performing stock in the banking sector in 2023, which underscores the bank’s robust growth trajectory and unwaver­ing market confidence.

Specifically, between the start of January 2023 and Monday, the price of UBA shares has appre­ciated by over 250 percent from N7.60 per share.

United BANK

Tony Elumelu, the chairman, UBA Group, said that the bank’s remarkable journey in 2023 cul­minated with its shares being ac­claimed as the highest performing stock within the banking sector, as he pointed out that this not only highlights the bank’s stra­tegic prowess but also reflects its commitment to delivering unpar­alleled value to shareholders and stakeholders alike.

“As UBA celebrates these sig­nificant milestones, we will like all our stakeholders to know that we remain steadfast in our mission to drive sustainable growth, foster innovation, and create value for its diverse clientele across Africa,” Elumelu said.

“We are witnessing the impact of the business transformation drive UBA embarked on years ago and executed well. Naturally, the market has taken note of and is duly rewarding our efforts. To our stakeholders, our promise is that we will continue to work harder, deliver on what we know how to do well and create impacts across geographies where we currently operate,” he further said.

Oliver Alawuba, UBA’s group managing director/Chief Executive Officer, who expressed delight at the bank’s performance in the past few months, said with its unwav­ering commitment to excellence and execution, the bank continues to set benchmarks in the banking sector, reinforcing its position as Africa’s global bank of choice.

“Market participants have begun to appreciate the latent ca­pacity in UBA’s business model as the bank unlocks enormous potentials in its pan African and international operations. Its unique competitive advantage lies in people, processes, and technolo­gy. With operations and offices in 24 countries and on 4 continents, UBA is the only African bank with deposit-taking licence in the USA. The bank’s fundamentals remain strong with impressive financial results that have contin­ued to deliver sustainable value for its shareholders. At current price, UBA trades at price-to-earn­ing (P/E) and price-to-book (P/B) multiples of 2.27 and 0.59 which are a reflection of the market’s expectations of the bank’s future growth potentials,” Alawuba said.

UBA is listed on the premi­um board of the Nigerian Stock Exchange in recognition of the bank’s strong adherence to in­ternational best practices on cor­porate governance and remains committed to creating value for its over 275,000 esteemed sharehold­ers spread across the globe.

The outgone year, 2023, has been a splendid year for United Bank for Africa, becoming the most profitable bank in Nigeria in 2023, with a shareholders’ fund that has grown from 992 billion as at full year 2022 to N1.8 trillion as of September 2023.

UBA was also appointed as the Local Arranger and Local Depos­itory Bank for the $3.3 billion FX liquidity support facility for Ni­geria in partnership with Africa Export and Import Bank (Afrex­imbank), providing solutions to economic solutions in Nigeria characterised by shortage of FX liquidity.

Likewise, in 2023, UBA won the 2023 FMDQ Gold Awards in three categories including the Best FX Liquidity Provider; Dealing Insti­tution of the Year and Best Money Market Liquidity Provider. This recognition is a testament to UBA’s impressive capital strength. (Independent)
