The annual profit decline was primarily due to lower average selling prices, higher fuel costs, and a decrease in other income.
However, the 2025 revenues accelerated, partially supported by higher sales volumes. This came as general and administrative expenses as well as financing costs and Zakat expenses declined by year-end.
