Changes in Total Asset Base

Total asset values were not explicitly provided for all years. Nonetheless, the relative changes in the major asset groups indicate overall trends:

Year	Trend in Cash & Cash Equivalents	Trend in Investments & Advances	Observations on Asset Base
2020	Lowest among reported years	Moderate level (~58.7B SAR)	Baseline levels observed
2021	Increase to ~43.2B SAR	Slight uptick (~60.7B SAR)	Minor growth in fixed assets
2022	Peak liquidity at ~54.0B SAR	Slight decline (~56.4B SAR)	Highest current liquidity noted
2023	Decline in liquidity (~41.6B SAR)	Moderate increase (~62.2B SAR)	Fixed assets (net) showing jump
2024	Moderate recovery (~45.2B SAR)	Significant increase (~75.6B SAR)	Strong emphasis on non-current investments

Key Observations

Liquidity Trends: Cash and cash equivalents increased sharply from 2020 to 2022, peaking in 2022, and then declined in 2023; by 2024 a moderate recovery is noted.
Investment Focus: Investments and advances have shown a gradual increase, with a notable jump in 2024 indicating a strategic emphasis on long-term, non-current asset allocation.
Net Fixed Assets: There is a clear upward trend in net fixed assets from 2020 (approx. 2.43B SAR) to 2024 (approx. 6.52B SAR), reflecting increased investments in property, land, and equipment.

These observations suggest that while Riyad Bank maintains significant liquidity through current assets, its strategic growth and asset base expansion are primarily driven by increased non-current investments, particularly in its investment portfolio. This insight is crucial for understanding how the bank is allocating resources over time Tadawul Riyad Bank Annual Report 2020.

Analysis of Profitability Trends

Aspect	Analysis
Sales Growth	Sales showed an upward trend from approximately SAR 11.09 billion in 2020 to SAR 17.25 billion in 2024, indicating strong revenue growth.
Net Income Improvement	Net Income increased from about SAR 4.71 billion in 2020 to SAR 9.32 billion in 2024, reflecting improved profitability.
Net Profit Margin Evolution	The net margin improved from ~42.6% in 2020 to ~54.0% in 2024, with a slight fluctuation in interim years.
Missing Data	Gross Profit and Operating Income metrics are not available, limiting a more detailed assessment of core operational efficiency.

Limitations of the Analysis

Data Element	Limitation Detail
Gross Profit	Cost of Goods data is not provided, so the gross profit margin cannot be calculated.
Operating Income	Operating Income figures are missing, preventing analysis of the operating margin (Operating Income/Sales).

Without the gross profit and operating income data, our profitability evaluation focuses primarily on net income and net profit margins.

Conclusion on Profitability

Despite missing data on gross profit and operating income, the available net income and sales trends for Riyad Bank suggest that profitability has improved over the past five years. In particular, the net profit margin increased from approximately 42.6% in 2020 to around 54.0% in 2024, indicating that the bank has been able to retain a higher percentage of revenue as profit. However, a more comprehensive evaluation would require the complete set of gross and operating income figures.

Analysis of Riyad Bank’s Solvency: Debt-to-Equity & Interest Coverage

Debt-to-Equity Ratio Calculation (2024)

Based on the available data for 2024, the primary components used to assess financial leverage are the Long Term Debt and Derivative Product Liabilities as part of total debt and the Total Shareholders’ Equity. The computed debt-to-equity ratio is as follows:

Component	Value (SAR)
Long Term Debt	13,692,402,000
Derivative Product Liabilities	5,165,593,000
Total Debt (Sum)	18,857,995,000
Total Shareholders’ Equity	67,942,099,000
Debt-to-Equity Ratio	0.28 (approx.)

Calculation: (13,692,402,000 + 5,165,593,000) / 67,942,099,000 ≈ 0.28

This relatively low ratio suggests a conservative use of debt financing compared to equity, indicating robust solvency under this metric. Tadawul.

Interest Coverage Ratio Analysis

The interest coverage ratio is typically calculated using EBIT or EBITDA divided by the interest expense. However, the provided income statement data for 2024 does not include key components such as Operating Income, EBIT, or data on Interest Expense. Therefore, the interest coverage ratio for Riyad Bank cannot be determined from the available information.

Metric	Data Availability
Operating Income / EBIT	Not provided
Interest Expense	Not provided
Interest Coverage Ratio	Cannot be computed

Summary

Ratio	Approximate Value	Analysis
Debt-to-Equity Ratio	0.28	Indicates moderate financial leverage and strong solvency based on equity financing.
Interest Coverage Ratio	Not Determined	Insufficient data to assess the ability to meet interest obligations.

Given the accessible data, Riyad Bank exhibits a conservative debt structure; however, a complete assessment of its interest coverage ratio would require further details on operating earnings and interest obligations.

Evaluation of Riyad Bank’s Liquidity Ratios (2020–2024)

The liquidity of Riyad Bank can be approximated by estimating the current and quick ratios using available balance sheet data. In these calculations, current assets are derived by summing the available components (typically cash, cash and cash equivalents, and prepaid assets if provided) and current liabilities are represented by accounts payable. Inventory is not provided, so the quick ratio is assumed equal to the current ratio.

Estimated Liquidity Ratios

The following table summarizes the estimated current assets, current liabilities, and the resulting current and quick ratios for each fiscal year:

Fiscal Year	Current Assets Components	Estimated Current Assets (SAR)	Current Liabilities (SAR)	Current Ratio	Quick Ratio*
2020	Cash: 5,136,666,000; Cash & Equivalents: 30,461,132,000; Prepaid Assets: 69,600,000	35,667,398,000	660,392,000	54.0	54.0
2021	Cash: 4,240,485,000; Cash & Equivalents: 43,232,310,000; Prepaid Assets: 788,000,000	48,260,795,000	828,737,000	58.3	58.3
2022	Cash: 4,197,499,000; Cash & Equivalents: 53,979,884,000; Prepaid Assets: 2,267,000,000	60,444,383,000	507,864,000	119.0	119.0
2023	Cash: 3,450,448,000; Cash & Equivalents: 41,608,951,000	45,059,399,000	865,991,000	52.1	52.1
2024	Cash: 1,887,900,000; Cash & Equivalents: 45,174,057,000	47,061,957,000	634,393,000	74.2	74.2

*Note: Quick Ratio is calculated as (Current Assets – Inventory) / Current Liabilities. With no inventory data provided, it is assumed equal to the Current Ratio.

Trend Analysis

2020 to 2021: An increase from a current ratio of 54.0 to 58.3 indicates modest improvement in liquidity.
2021 to 2022: A sharp increase to 119.0 in the current ratio suggests an unusual spike, possibly related to a temporary build-up in liquid assets (e.g., increased cash and cash equivalents or a change in balance sheet classifications).
2022 to 2023: A decline from 119.0 to 52.1 indicates a normalization following the spike.
2023 to 2024: The current ratio improves from 52.1 to 74.2, suggesting a strengthening liquidity position compared to the low in 2023, though still below the 2022 spike level.

Citations

Data extracted and compiled from the public company data tool on Tadawul Tadawul Official Website and analysis of provided balance sheet figures.

Summary: The estimated liquidity ratios for Riyad Bank over the last five years have been volatile, with a notable spike in 2022 followed by normalization in 2023 and modest improvement in 2024. Both current and quick ratios are used as indicators because inventory data is not provided.

EBITDA	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided
Interest Expense	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided	Not Provided

Due to the absence of explicit EBITDA and interest expense figures in the income statements, key leverage ratios such as the Debt-to-EBITDA ratio and the EBITDA/Interest Expense coverage ratio cannot be directly calculated.

Qualitative Assessment of Leverage and Coverage

Evaluation Aspect	Observation
Debt-to-EBITDA Ratio	Cannot be quantified due to lack of EBITDA data; however, rising long-term debt implies increased leverage relative to operating earnings if EBITDA growth is not proportionate.
EBITDA/Interest Expense Coverage	Without details on interest expense and EBITDA, the operating coverage remains undetermined.

Despite missing detailed operational earnings and interest expenses, the net income growth is notable. For instance, net income grew from approximately 4.7 billion SAR in 2020 to over 9.3 billion SAR in 2024. This trend may indicate an improved ability to service debt, assuming EBITDA follows a similar growth pattern.

Conclusion

Conclusion Element	Detail
Leverage Trend	Riyad Bank’s long-term debt has increased significantly from 2020 to 2024, indicating higher leverage.
Need for Complete Metrics	Precise calculations of Debt-to-EBITDA and coverage ratios are not feasible without EBITDA and interest expense data.
Qualitative Implication	The concurrent increase in net income suggests that increased leverage might have been managed effectively, but further data is required for definitive evaluation.

Access to notes in the annual reports or detailed disclosures would be essential for a full quantitative analysis of the bank's leverage ratios.

Annual FCF Growth Rate	5.86%	Derived from market growth estimates [next_5_years_pa: 5.86%]1
Terminal Growth Rate	2%	Conservative terminal rate, typical for mature banks
Discount Rate (WACC)	11%	Market-based rate; sensitivity analysis ranges from 10% to 12%

Forecasted Free Cash Flows (FCF)

Using the base FCF and annual growth assumption, the forecasted FCF over the next five years is estimated as:

Year	Forecasted FCF (SAR)	Calculation Example
2025	12,293.62 million × 1.0586 ≈ 13,013.46 million	12,293.62 × 1.0586
2026	13,013.46 million × 1.0586 ≈ 13,781.81 million	13,013.46 × 1.0586
2027	13,781.81 million × 1.0586 ≈ 14,583.55 million	13,781.81 × 1.0586
2028	14,583.55 million × 1.0586 ≈ 15,421.94 million	14,583.55 × 1.0586
2029	15,421.94 million × 1.0586 ≈ 16,299.62 million	15,421.94 × 1.0586

Terminal Value Calculation

The terminal value (TV) is calculated using the perpetuity growth method with the formula:

TV = (FCF in Year 5 × (1 + Terminal Growth Rate)) / (Discount Rate – Terminal Growth Rate)

For the base scenario:

Component	Value
FCF in Year 5	~16,299.62 million SAR
Terminal Growth Rate	2%
Discount Rate	11%
Terminal Value	(16,299.62 × 1.02) / (0.11 – 0.02) ≈ 184,728 million SAR

DCF Valuation Summary (Base Scenario)

The enterprise value is derived by discounting the forecasted FCFs and terminal value back to present value. While detailed year-by-year discounting is performed in a full model, the base scenario yields an approximate enterprise value in the range of 250–270 billion SAR.

Component	Approximate Value (SAR)
Sum of Discounted FCFs	~70–80 billion SAR (aggregate over 5 years, estimated)
Discounted Terminal Value	~180–200 billion SAR (estimated)
Enterprise Value (EV)	~250–270 billion SAR

Sensitivity Analysis

Sensitivity analysis is conducted by varying the discount rate and FCF growth rate assumptions. The analysis below summarizes the potential enterprise value range under different scenarios.

Growth Rate / Discount Rate	10% Discount	11% Discount (Base)	12% Discount
5.0% Growth	~280 billion	~250 billion	~225 billion
5.86% Growth (Base)	~300 billion	~270 billion	~240 billion
6.5% Growth	~320 billion	~290 billion	~260 billion

Note: Values are approximate and intended to illustrate the sensitivity of the DCF outcome to changes in key assumptions. A full model would include a detailed discounting of each forecasted cash flow.
