Highlights from the Statement

The company attributed the YoY profit decline to a SAR 56.7 million increase in operating expenses to support heightened operational requirements during the Umrah season, partially offset by a SAR 34.7 million decrease in Zakat expense due to reversal of prior year provisions and a SAR 4.1 million increase in other income.

Quarter-on-quarter, net profit fell 43.1% compared to Q4 2025, primarily driven by a SAR 40.9 million increase in operating expenses and a SAR 39.6 million decrease in share of results from equity-accounted investments, partially offset by a SAR 46.1 million decrease in impairment losses and an SAR 8.2 million reduction in Zakat expense.
