Saudi Automotive Services Company (SASCO) 
​has recorded
 a 59 percent drop in profit during Q1-2015
​, ​
compared to the same period last year
​.
 
​
The company, which operates gas stations and restaurants, saw its net profit drop to SAR 3.2 million during the first three months of 2015
​, less
 than half of the SAR 7.8 million it recorded in Q1-2014 .

 

The fall was mainly attributed to the liquidation of some of its investment portfolios
​,​
 which resulted in lower investment revenue
​s​
. Rising employment costs also led to higher administration spending.
 
On a positive note, the company saw its operating income rise 29.6 per cent year-over-year to reach SAR 127 million in Q1-20
​1​
5.
 
Quarter-on-quarter losses, however, were largely due to costs involved with selling the company’s stake in TAQA, as well as the cancellation of a contract during that time.
 
Dividends received from investments during the first quarter of 2015 also declined, the company added.
