Key Highlights

The company attributed the profit decline to:

  • Higher raw material costs.
  • Surcharges related to regional maritime disruptions.
  • General inflationary pressures and fuel price increases.
  • A sharp contraction in Polish subsidiary Mlekoma's revenue from SAR 250M to SAR 147M due to lower selling prices and volumes.

Offsetting this, SADAFCO's core business (excluding Mlekoma) grew sales 4.9% on volume gains across major product categories.

On a quarterly basis, Q2 2026 revenue rose 1.7% QoQ to SAR 749.98 million, and net profit increased 7.6% to SAR 88.24 million, driven by favorable seasonality and improved product mix.

Future Guidance

No specific forward guidance was provided, but the company noted it maintains a strong balance sheet and healthy cash position.

Stock Impact

The mixed results may pressure the stock in the near term due to the earnings miss, but the resilient core business and sequential improvement could provide support.

What This Means for Investors

SADAFCO faces margin headwinds from elevated input costs, but the core business's volume growth signals sustained demand. Investors should monitor raw material trends and Mlekoma's recovery.
