The profit decline was attributed to a 21% year-on-year (YoY) decrease in operating income, mainly on lower net financing and investment income, other operating income, net gains on derecognition of financial assets at amortized cost, net gains on FVIS financial instruments and net fees from banking services.

This was despite a YoY increase in dividend income and net exchange income.

On the other hand, gross operating expenses fell by 6% YoY. This was mainly due to a decrease in net credit loss provision, as well as depreciation and amortization expenses against an increase in salaries and employee-related expenses.

Sequentially, the bank’s net profit fell 16.3% from SAR 243.75 million in Q4 2022.
