The profit growth was driven by higher revenue on increased sales volumes and the consolidation of Hail Cement’s results following its acquisition, completed on June 10, 2024, despite a decline in average selling prices.
The company also reported lower selling, marketing, and general and administrative expenses, along with higher other income.
These gains were partly offset by a slight drop in sales volume and lower returns from financial investments.
Total shareholders’ equity, no minority interest, stood at SAR 2.77 billion by March 2025, compared to SAR 1.59 billion a year earlier.
