The profit growth was primarily driven by a 43% year-on-year (YoY) increase in revenue in 2024 to SAR 56.7 million, which in turn boosted gross profit to SAR 15.6 million, supported by higher revenues across all operating segments.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) rose to SAR 9.8 million in 2024, from SAR 6.6 million a year earlier.
This came despite recording an expected credit loss provision of SAR 1.7 million in 2024 versus none in 2023, a rise in finance costs to SAR 3.8 million from SAR 2 million, and a slight drop in gross margin to 28% from 29%, due to a higher cost-to-revenue ratio. Other income declined to SAR 577,000 from SAR 1.1 million.
By segment, 2024 revenue comprised medical operations at 24% (SAR 13.8 million), up from SAR 7.9 million in 2023; medical maintenance at 56% (SAR 32 million), up from SAR 22.1 million; and spare parts at 19% (SAR 10.9 million), compared to SAR 9.7 million.
Government entities contributed 99% of revenue at SAR 56.1 million, versus SAR 39.3 million a year earlier, while the private sector accounted for 1% at SAR 560,100, up from SAR 409,400.
Shareholders’ equity, no minority interest, reached SAR 15.4 million by the end of 2024, up from SAR 10.7 million a year before.
