| Element List | Explanation |
|---|---|
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the sales/ revenues during the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the last year is | Revenue increased by 5% to SAR 175 million in the current quarter, compared to SAR 166 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year, primarily driven by the following: Flour segment: Sales volumes grew by 9% year-on-year, supported by improved sales strategies across various flour categories. Bran segment: Performance improved, with sales volumes increasing by 4% alongside better pricing, contributing positively to revenue growth. This overall growth was partially offset by a decline in sales volumes in the animal feed segment compared to the first quarter of 2025. |
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the last year is | Net profit for the current quarter amounted to SAR 53.3 million, compared to SAR 52.7 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year, representing an increase of 1%. This was primarily driven by a 5% increase in revenues, supported by higher sales volumes in the flour and bran segments and improved margins, which helped limit the increase in cost of revenues to 2%, despite a decline in the animal feed segment. On the other hand, profit growth was impacted by higher general and administrative expenses due to increased employee costs, as well as higher selling and distribution expenses in line with commercial activities and channel support, in addition to higher expected credit loss provisions. For comparability purposes, it should be noted that net profit in the corresponding quarter of the previous year was positively impacted by the reversal of deferred tax liabilities. |
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the sales/ revenues during the current quarter compared to the previous one is | Net revenue for the current quarter amounted to SAR 175 million, representing an 8% decline compared to the previous quarter, primarily due to the seasonality of demand. Despite a 9% decline in overall sales volumes, the Company continued to execute on its strategy of focusing on higher value-added products, achieving volume growth of 20% in consumer flour packs, along with a 15% increase in the animal feed segment compared to the previous quarter. |
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit (loss) during the current quarter compared to the previous one is | Net profit for the current quarter amounted to SAR 53.3 million, reflecting a 14% decline compared to the previous quarter. This decrease is primarily attributable to the seasonality of demand, while the Company continues to execute on its strategic focus of driving growth in higher value-added products and optimizing margins. Net profit was also impacted by higher operating expenses compared to the previous quarter, particularly in selling and distribution expenses, in line with commercial activities and channel support. |
