The losses were attributed to lower average selling prices of products and higher production costs from feedstock prices, resulting in margin compression; however, Sadara continued to push higher product volumes to the market. Additionally, the company recognized modification gain from debt reprofiling of SAR 1.05 billion year-on-year.

 

Sadara turned to a net loss after Zakat and tax of SAR 1.168 billion in Q3 2022, against a profit of SAR 684.3 million in Q3 2021 and SAR 229.2 million in Q2 2022.
