The company attributed the loss mainly to a decline in sales on lower offtake by the company’s main client (Saudi Aramco) compared to the projected sales for 2025, which negatively impacted revenues. In addition, sales were affected by a fire that occurred at one of the plant facilities on July 4, 2025, resulting in a partial suspension of operations, reduced production capacity, and the partial loss of finished goods inventory.
In H2 2025, Al Battal swung to a loss of SAR 25.59 million from earnings of SAR 4.96 million in H2 2024.
The company had reported a loss of SAR 3.96 million in H1 2025.
