Kingdom Holding Co. (KHC) swung to a net profit after Zakat and tax of SAR 503.3 million for the first half of 2021, against a net loss of SAR 1.176 billion in the prior-year period.
The positive results were driven by an increase in share of results from equity-accounted investees and a decrease in impairment of equity-accounted investees. KHC also reported higher dividend income and other gains, along with lower hotels and other operating costs and financial charges.
The earnings were also supported by lower general, administrative and marketing expenses, in addition to a decrease in impairment of financial assets and Zakat expense.
