The annual net profit was weighed down by a 4% year-on-year (YoY) decline in net revenues for 2024. This was due to the company's completion of operational efficiency improvements for its programs and services, which hurt its topline growth.
Additionally, the cost of revenue increased by 6% YoY in 2024, primarily due to higher employment costs and the recruitment of operational personnel to support Alqemam’s products and services. This is besides expanding its customer base within target Kingdom-wide regions.
Alqemam also cited a 60% YoY increase in general and administrative expenses, and a 66% YoY rise in expected credit losses.
