The drop came as the civil explosives producer suspended the capitalization of two production lines costs at its subsidiary, AJA Pharmaceutical Industries Co. Ltd.

 

In addition, the increase in financing costs resulting from obtaining additional bank facilities, higher selling, general and administrative expenses, as well as provisions for doubtful debts and zakat also weighed on the annual figures.

 

In Q4 2019, the company incurred a net loss of SAR 50.7 million, against a net profit of SAR 17 million in year-earlier period.
