This came given the higher cost of sales, paired with the elevated general & administrative and marketing expenses as well as financing costs. This is besides losses from fair value adjustments of investment properties and the reversal of compensation related to the Hafar Al-Batin land case.
This was partially offset by higher sales, supported by increased sales volumes and rising diesel prices. This is in addition to lower expected credit losses, alongside elevated other revenues, investment returns, and investments at fair value through profit or loss.
