The solid performance was primarily attributed to significant double-digit growth in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) solutions segment, as well as strong after-sale services. 

 

HVAC solutions segment’s strong performance offset the slowdown of the home appliances segment due to inflationary pressures. 

 

Gross profit stood at SAR 237.64 million, an increase of 10.24% YoY, driven by higher sales, portfolio mix optimization and continued improvement in the management of cost of goods sold. 

 

Operating income jumped 15.62% YoY to SAR 42.36 million, due to a lower impairment loss on trade and other receivables. 

 

Meanwhile, selling and distribution costs, as well as general and administrative expenses increased.
