This was mainly due to the recognition of non-recurring expenses based on the decision of the Ministerial Committee for the Restructuring of the Electricity Sector and SEC (the Ministerial Committee) to approve a final settlement of historically disputed amounts related to technical differences in fuel quantities and prices, handling costs, and electrical energy.
 
The company also posted higher net financing charges in the income statement reflecting increased financing raised in 2024 to fund SEC expanding capital expenditures and enhance its business growth.
 
However, this was offset by higher revenues due to an increase in required revenue recognized during the current year, driven by a rise in the regulated weighted average cost of capital (Regulatory WACC) and a growing regulated asset base (RAB). This was in addition to strong demand for electric power, increase in electricity production revenue by SEC and continued growth in subscriber base. The company also posted an increase in revenue from development projects to construct substations and transmission lines on behalf of SEC’s customers.
 
Before one-offs, 2024 net earnings reached SAR 12.08 billion, compared with SAR 11.09 billion in 2023.
