Latest Developments Of The Announced Event	The company continues to make significant progress in the construction of its new concrete plant in the Third Industrial City in Dammam, with approximately 55% of the project completed. Several key phases of the project have been completed, and the installation of equipment, machinery, and mechanical and electrical works are currently underway according to the approved schedule. The company affirms its commitment to completing the project as planned, with trial and commercial operations of the plant expected to commence, God willing, during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026.
Reasons For The Delay on The Date of The Event Previously Announced	The adjustment to the expected start date for trial operations is due to delays in obtaining certain licenses and regulatory approvals required for the project, as well as delays in the arrival of some key production line equipment. These delays stemmed from logistical challenges and the impact of regional developments on maritime shipping, necessitating the rescheduling of some implementation phases and installation work. Furthermore, the construction work and the installation of mechanical and electrical equipment and systems took longer than planned to ensure the plant's readiness according to technical specifications and operational requirements. This also included completing the necessary testing, inspections, and initial commissioning before the start of trial production, guaranteeing the plant's full operational readiness and achieving the highest levels of operational efficiency. The company affirms its continued commitment to completing the work according to the approved plans, ensuring the project's readiness and achieving the targeted operational efficiency.
