Saudi Electricity Co. (SAUDI ELECTRICITY)

Saudi Electricity Co.’s (SEC) net profit after zakat and tax dropped 55.3 percent year-on-year (YoY) to SAR 5.6 billion for the first nine months of 2018, as the company had non-recurring write off of municipality fees in year-earlier period.

 

In addition, the adoption of IFRS 15 and higher financing charges also weighed on the nine-month figures.

Net profit after zakat and tax for the third quarter declined 6.4 percent YoY to SAR 4.9 billion on higher financing charges and lower operating revenue owing to the application of IFRS 15, which led to a decline in power supply tariffs.

 

The third-quarter net profit more than doubled when compared to Q2 2018, driven by a rise in operating revenue and seasonal factors.
