The profit decline was attributed to a decrease in the company’s share of net earnings from its joint venture investments (S-Chem) during the current period, on lower average selling prices and higher feedstock and energy costs.
Meanwhile, sales volumes improved supported by the absence of scheduled maintenance work during the current quarter, which affected operations at Saudi Chevron Phillips and Jubail Chevron Phillips in the same period last year.
Additionally, general and administrative expenses increased, driven by legal and advisory costs related to the capital reduction process and the share buyback executed during H1 2025.
However, Zakat expenses decreased following the SAR 755 million capital reduction, which led to a lower Zakat base, as well as an increase in returns from Islamic murabaha investments.
