This came despite higher selling and distribution expenses, an increase in finance charges, as well as lower profit share from an associate and a decline in other revenues.

 

Compared to Q4 2022, net profit dropped 19.9% from SAR 154.52 million on lower sales revenue amid a decline in average selling prices. The company also recorded lower sales volumes, along with higher selling and distribution expenses.
