The company’s net loss before minority interest amounted to SAR 205.5 million during the nine-month period, compared to SAR 48.3 million in 9M 2024.
The company attributed these losses to a 1.4% year-on-year (YoY) decline in revenues from the food and beverage segment to SAR 247.3 million. However, online performance remained robust, with Subway up 260.5%, Cinnabon up 8.2%, and Subway’s like-for-like sales increasing 2.1%.
Moreover, selling, general & administrative expenses fell by 3%, reflecting continued efficiency gains from the cost optimization measures and improved operational efficiencies.
The company also saw a 70.7% YoY drop in other operating income, reaching SAR 75.4 million by the end of 9M 2025. This was primarily due to the absence of the SAR 211 million non-recurring capital gain recognized in 9M 2024 under the brand divestment program.
