OLYMPIA FINANCIAL GROUP INC. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2023 RESULTS

Olympia Financial Group Inc. has released its operating and financial results for the period ended March 31, 2023.

"Both revenue and earnings continued to grow considerably in the first quarter," said Craig Skauge, Olympia Executive Vice President, and President of Olympia Trust Company. "The combined value of the strategic acquisitions made by Olympia in 2021 and the impact of increases in interest rates over the past year continue to be shown in the numbers announced today."

Results from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023, include the following (compared to operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022):

  • Total net earnings and comprehensive income increased more than 100% to $5.23 million from $2.28 million.
  • Basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to shareholders of Olympia increased more than 100% to $2.17 per share from $0.95 per share.
  • Total revenue increased 58% to $23.62 million from $14.92 million, mainly due to an increase in trust income in the Investment Account Services division.
  • Service revenue decreased 4% to $11.84 million from $12.29 million, mainly due to the decreased annual fee for the 2023 year in the Investment Account Services division.
  • Trust income and interest revenue increased more than 100% to $11.78 million from $2.63 million, due to higher interest rates on trust fund placements made over the previous 12 months, as well as increased funds held in trust.
  • Direct and administrative expenses (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased 42% to $16.10 million from $11.34 million, mainly due to increased salaries, bonuses, and management fees paid within the Investment Account Services division resulting from increased revenues. The increase can also be attributed to a one-time management fee of $0.50 million paid by the Health division.

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements and notes, as well as management's discussion and analysis, are now available on SEDAR. Both historical and current information on Olympia's stock, financials, press releases, governance, and more can now be found on the company's website.
