Rasan attributed its profit increase for the current period, compared to last year, to a significant rise in revenues, which surged 57.7% to SAR 198.8 million, primarily due to higher revenues from a subsidiary in electronic insurance brokerage. Concurrently, financing costs decreased by 79.8% following the settlement of a related-party loan.
Despite these gains, the company faced a reduction in the operating profit margin to 19.7% from 25.7% due to higher general and administrative expenses and increased marketing costs. Additionally, zakat and income tax expenses rose, with income tax expenses reaching SAR 1.5 million.
