Net profit for the fourth quarter dropped 18.6 percent YoY to SAR 3.67 billion, mainly on lower production and sold quantities as a result of planned turnarounds at certain plants.

 

Q4 net profit fell 36.6 percent compared to the previous quarter as the petrochemical giant saw lower production and sold quantities.

 

The quarterly results were also affected by impairments against the assets of SABIC’s wholly owned subsidiary Hadeed, amounting to SAR 350 million, and Ibn Sina, amounting to SAR 274 million. SABIC’s share in the impairments was SAR 136 million.
