This was attributable to an increase in other income, a decrease in Zakat expense and expected credit loss provisions, as well as an increase in dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

 

However, the recognition losses from the disposal of assets held for sale (which were not present in the corresponding period), a decline in operating income, and an increase in general and administrative expenses offset the semi-annual positive performance.
