The company attributed the profit growth to a 16.2% year-on-year (YoY) increase in revenues, driven by a 13% increase in student enrollment, from 28,200 to 31,900 students in the current period.
The company opened four new schools in Riyadh under the Tarbiyah Namouthajiyah Schools (TNS) in Qurtubah District, TNS in Al-Narjis District, National School in Hetteen District, and MEIA in Al-Qairawan District at the onset of the 2024–2025 academic year.
The year included a reversal of expected credit loss provisions due to better receivables collection and lower Zakat expenses.
On the other hand, NCLE reported an increase in finance costs due to lease expenses for the new TNS Academy in Riyadh’s Al-Qirawan district, in addition to the loan costs tied to land purchases in Riyadh (Al-Rabie) and Jeddah (Obhur North).
Government grants and subsidies declined due to lower wage support from the Human Resources Development Fund.
