Net profit declined due to weaker sales due to ongoing regional geopolitical issues and currency devaluation in Egypt, as well as non-recurring costs of SAR 11 million recorded in the first quarter of 2024.
However, profitability improved significantly in the second half of the year, driven by targeted marketing and cost optimization initiatives, as well as a strategic shift toward more variable costs. These measures led to stronger margins and net profit surged by 305% year-over-year (YoY) in Q4 2024.
