Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank reported net income of 2.57 billion dirhams ($699.7 million) for the second quarter on Monday, up 10.7% from the prior-year period, beating analyst expectations. Analysts had expected ADCB's second-quarter profit at 2.33 billion dirhams, according to LSEG data. The bank reported a net profit of 2.32 billion dirhams in the quarter ended June 30 last year. ADCB is the third-largest bank by assets in the United Arab Emirates and majority-owned by the government-run Abu Dhabi Investment Council.

Key growth areas included energy, trading, financial institutions, transport and communication. The bank said non-interest income, which jumped 44% in the quarter compared to last year, continued to be a key driver for growth. Total assets also grew, rising 17% year-on-year to 719 billion dirhams. Net loans grew 14% and deposits increased 19%. Shares in ADCB are up about 36% year-to-date.
