The bank previously revealed that it would be closing 114 branches across the UK from April.
It initially blamed Covid for a decline in footfall but has since seen pre-tax profits rising as well as the chief executive's salary increasing to £4.5 million, it is understood.
The branches closing are serving fewer than 250 people a week, HSBC said.
The bank will still have 327 branches left - almost half its presence on the high street from two years ago.

Higher interest rates are believed to have helped the bank's pre-tax profits jump by more than 90 per cent to £4.3billion in the last three months of 2022.
Meanwhile, chief executive Noel Quinn had his bonus upped by 36 per cent to £1.8 million for last year, according to the Sun.
And he could earn up to £9.8 million if long-term share awards hit targets.
