This was driven by gains generated from the partial sale of the company’s investment in Iraq and lower financing costs (FCs).

 

Additionally, 2023 earnings were impacted by the settlement agreement with Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA) for the years 2014 to 2019.

 

However, the 2024 profit growth was offset by lower revenues amid weaker sales volumes.

 

In Q4 2024, Northern Cement turned to net earnings of SAR 19.28 million, from net losses of SAR 7.93 million in the year before.

 

Sequentially, the Saudi-listed cement producer’s net profit rose 6.4% from SAR 18.13 million in Q3 2024.
