They were also driven by a SAR 17.3 million increase in other income, compared to SAR 14.9 million in the same period of 2023. Additionally, SGS posted a SAR 12.8 million decline in financing costs, which improved results.
These positive factors were partially offset by SAR 25 million increase in the impairment loss on trade and other receivables compared to the same period previous year.
