BusinessDay report says Fidelity Bank, Seplat Energy, Total Energies, Okomu oil, Presco, Dangote Cement, MTN Nigeria, BUA Foods, First City Monument Bank (FCMB) and Geregu Power emerged as the companies with the highest earnings per share within the review period.<\/p>\n

It also indicates how much money a company makes for each share of its stock and is a widely used metric for estimating corporate value.<\/p>\n

A higher EPS indicates greater value because investors will pay more for a company\u2019s shares if they think the company has higher profits relative to its share price.<\/p>\n

Fidelity Bank recorded an earnings per share of N184 in the first half of 2023 from N79 in the first half of 2022.<\/p>\n

The shares outstanding stand at 32.01 million, with a price which stood at N7 and a traded volume of 32.15 million as of 12:59 p.m. on Friday.<\/p>\n

Fidelity Bank\u2019s cash and cash equivalents rose to N501.54 billion in the first half of 2023 from N276.07 in the first half of 2022.<\/p>\n
