Financials (M)

Item 9m 2023 9m 2024 Change‬
Revenues 21,237.36 22,576.98 6.3 %
Gross Income 4,130.47 7,004.30 69.6 %
Operating Income 1,985.59 5,303.85 167.1 %
Net Income 686.93 2,977.19 333.4 %
Average Shares 3,691.77 3,691.77 -
EPS (Riyals) 0.19 0.81 333.4 %

The profit rise was attributed to a rise of SAR 1.34 billion in sales during the current period driven by increased selling prices for all products except for ammonia and flat-rolled products. Additionally, sales volumes of all products, except for ammonia phosphate fertilizers, ammonia, and alumina, also increased.

 

Gross profit increased by 70% (SAR 2.8 billion) year-on-year (YoY), mainly due to higher selling prices and volumes, reduced raw material costs, lower depreciation expenses and one-off industrial utility charges’ impact in the prior year.

 

In addition, a SAR 563 million insurance claim for relining of pots within smelter plants was received in H1 2024, along with realizing a one-off severance charge worth SAR 192 million in H1 2023, which supported profitability during the current period.

 

However, this increase in net profit was partially offset by higher financing costs, a decline in the share of net profit from joint ventures, an increase in operating expenses, including provisions for expected credit losses, and a rise in Zakat and income tax expenses.
