Losses were driven by a SAR 1.05 billion drop in gross profit on higher feedstock prices. In addition, other operating expenses increased mainly due to a non-recurring cost of SAR 1.07 billion related to a strategic restructuring initiative.
On the positive note, revenue increased by 6% year-on-year (YoY) to SAR 34.59 billion, primarily on higher sales volumes, but partially offset by lower average selling prices.
On a sequential basis, net loss shrank from SAR 1.89 billion in Q4 2024.
Total shareholders’ equity, after minority interest, stood at SAR 156.11 billion as of March 31, 2025, compared to SAR 166.48 billion a year earlier.
