National Gas and Industrialization Co. (GASCO) reported a net profit of SAR 38.8 million for Q1 2018, a drop of 40 percent year-on-year (YoY) due to a decline in gross income amid lower cylinder and tank sales, as well as higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

In addition, a decline in revenue from associates and other income along with higher zakat also weighed on the quarterly figures.

The company turned profitable against a net loss of SAR 14 million in Q4 2017, thanks to a decline in selling, general and administrative expenses and higher investment income.
