Catalyst Partners Middle East Reports Q1 2026 Results Following Strategic Expansion in the NBFI Sector

Catalyst Partners Middle East “CPME” announced its financial results for the first quarter ended 31 March 2026, reflecting continued progress in executing its mandate to build and scale a focused platform across Egypt’s non-banking financial institution “NBFI” sector.

During Q1 2026, CPME continued to advance its strategy of investing in and developing businesses operating within the NBFI ecosystem, including leasing, factoring, SME financing, asset management, portfolio management, and related financial services activities.

For the quarter ended 31 March 2026, CPME recorded consolidated revenues of EGP 124.5 Mn, representing a 36% increase compared to EGP 91.5 Mn in Q4 2025. Operating revenues reached EGP 121.8 Mn, compared to EGP 79.0 Mn in Q4 2025, representing a 54% increase. Net profit after tax grew to EGP 42.7 Mn, compared to EGP 18.9 Mn in Q4 2025, representing a 126% increase. Total assets amounted to EGP 3.9 Bn, while total equity reached EGP 3.0 Bn as of 31 March 2026.

The results reflect CPME’s ongoing transition from a special purpose acquisition company into an operating investment platform focused on NBFI and fintech sectors. This follows the Group’s acquisition of Catalyst Partners Holding and Qardy for Software Applications, which support CPME’s broader strategy of building exposure to scalable non-banking financial services and technology-enabled financing solutions.

Commenting on the results, Ibrahim El-Zeiny, Group Chief Financial Officer of Catalyst Partners Middle East, said:
“Q1 2026 represents an important step in CPME’s development as a focused NBFI platform. Following the completion of our acquisitions, we are focused on integrating our businesses, strengthening governance, scaling our operating subsidiaries, and creating long-term value for shareholders through disciplined exposure to Egypt’s non-banking financial services sector.”

The Group’s Q1 performance was supported by continued activity across its NBFI verticals, including investment banking, private equity, leasing, factoring, SME financing, custody and fund services. CPME also continued to strengthen its institutional infrastructure, enhance internal controls, and position the Group to capture future opportunities within Egypt’s growing NBFI market.

CPME’s balance sheet remained supported by a strong capital base, with issued and paid-in capital of EGP 3.0 Bn as of 31 March 2026. The Group will continue to focus on disciplined capital allocation, operational integration, and the development of scalable businesses within the fintech & NBFI sector.

Looking ahead, CPME aims to build on tech-enabled one-stop-shop platform strategy by expanding its operating activities, enhancing synergies between its subsidiaries, and pursuing opportunities that align with its mandate and long-term growth objectives.
