Net finance costs increased to SAR 690.1 million in 2024 compared to SAR 357.1 million in 2023, driven by the one-time write-off of non-amortized financing cost and the assessment of the time value of money in relation to payment plan arrangements.

 

Additionally, average cost of debt and total debts rose considering that the company is in a near-peak investment stage in its two flagship development projects, Jawharat Jeddah and Jawharat Riyadh, which are expected to be delivered in December 2025 and April 2026, respectively.

 

Impairment losses on accounts receivable increased to SAR 321.8 million in 2024, compared to SAR 189.7 million in 2023, due to adopting a more cautious approach for managing credit loss estimate.

 

The company also noted recording land sales gains of SAR 238.7 million in 2023.

 

Meanwhile, 2024 revenue increased by 4% to SAR 2.3 billion compared to SAR 2.25 billion in 2023, higher revenue across all divisions.

 

Net rental revenue increased supported by an improved like-for-like occupancy rate, which increased to 94.4% in 2024.

 

Higher footfall and the opening of U Walk Jeddah in Q1 2024 bolstered revenue growth.
