This was due to the gain on the partial sale of an equity-accounted investee that was recorded in the same period of last year, along with an increase in financing costs (FCs) as well as hotels and other operating costs.
In addition, the company cited a decrease in gains on investments at FVTPL for the six-month period, as well as higher general, administrative, and marketing expenses, along with an uptick in withholding and income tax expenses.
This was despite a surge in the share of results from equity-accounted investees, higher dividend income as well as hotels and other operating revenues, amid lower Zakat expenses.
