The annual profit decline was due to higher raw material costs, increased finance costs, and higher provisions for expected credit losses (ECL) on trade receivables, as part of a more conservative credit risk management approach.
This was partially offset by higher revenues for 2025, driven by strong sales volumes and improved market penetration across key product categories, despite the partial impact of promotional discounts implemented to support competitiveness.
