The lower losses were triggered by higher sales and the cost optimization initiative taken specifically on the cost of sales, as well as the soaring selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A). This, in turn, led to a decline in gross profit to SAR 5 million, against a gross loss of SAR 63.1 million in the first nine months of 2022.

 

The net loss attributable to shareholders dropped from SAR 123.8 million in the first nine months of 2022 to SAR 54.7 million in the same period of 2023, implying a 55.8٪ year-on-year (YoY) improvement.
