The company attributed the profit decline to a SAR 900,000 loss on sales of returned used vehicles before contract expiry in H1 2025, versus a SAR 1 million profit a year ago.
In addition, depreciation expenses rose 9% year-on-year (YoY), salaries and wages increased 29% YoY, and insurance costs climbed 16% YoY. However, revenue growth lagged behind the rise in expenses.
On the other hand, sales grew 7.1% YoY, driven mainly by a 30% increase in used car sales from vehicles whose contracts had ended, as well as a 1% rise in rental revenue supported by contract renewals and selective fleet expansion.
Total shareholders’ equity, no minority interest, increased to SAR 169.09 million as of June 30, 2025, from SAR 161.53 million in the year-earlier period.
