Financials (M)

Item 2022 2023 Change‬
Gross Written Premium (GWP) 1,106.29 1,297.13 17.3 %
Insurance Revenues 918.72 1,145.71 24.7 %
Net Profit Before Zakat & Tax 0.41 65.14 15943.3 %

Average Shares 63.85 67.84 6.2 %
EPS (Riyals) (0.29) 0.65 328.2 %

The improvement was attributed to increased insurance revenue that rose 24.7% year-on-year (YoY), in turn boosting insurance service results. The insurer also cited a 70% YoY increase in net investment income, and a slump of 13% YoY in other operating expenses.

 

Further, gross written premiums (GWP) increased by SAR 190,844, or 17% YoY.

 

This was offset by higher insurance service expenses, and rising net expenses from reinsurance contracts.

 

Q4 2023 net profit stood at SAR 15.3 million, against net loss of SAR 4.18 million in the prior year period.

 

On a quarterly basis, net profit increased by more than four-fold from SAR 3.79 million.
