Total revenue rose 10% year-on-year (YoY) to SAR 1.74 billion, driven by growth in retail and consumer finance segments.
Retail revenue grew 8.6% YoY due to higher (cliX) sales, an enhanced shopping experience, and an expanding base for the paid loyalty program (Jood).
Consumer finance revenue leapt 25.3% YoY, driven by a 29% increase in the consumer finance portfolio during that time.
The company also witnessed an improvement in the gross profit margin by 1.2% YoY, reaching 23%, due to the improvement in sales mix and growth in the consumer finance segment. This is in addition to lower cost of finance in the retail segment resulting from the proceeds of United International Holding Co. (UIHC) IPO.
On a sequential basis, net earnings dropped 49.7% from SAR 171.10 million in Q4 2024.
Shareholders’ equity, excluding minority interest, reached SAR 1.56 billion by March 31, 2025, compared to SAR 1.22 billion a year ago.
