Meanwhile, the company reported a higher net loss of the insurance results for Q1 2025 to SAR -35.65 million, compared to a net profit of the insurance results at SAR 11.75 million for the year-earlier period. This is mainly due to a decrease in insurance revenues and higher insurance service expenses.
