Saudi Cement Co.’s net profit after zakat and tax fell 20.3 percent year-on-year (YoY) to SAR 275.7 million in the first nine months of 2018, on lower sales, higher distribution & marketing expenses.

 

An increase in Islamic financial charges, and a decrease in the company’s profit share from associates also weighed on the nine-month results.
