The profit decline was attributed a drop in revenue by SAR 4.5 million, resulting from the company's establishment of a credit management department and the enhancement of customer acceptance procedures on the Eitimad platform. Consequently, certain contract renewals with existing clients were rejected, and new client acquisitions were not approved.
Furthermore, intense competition and the emergence of numerous companies operating in the same sector contributed to this revenue reduction. Moreover, the company encountered an increased cost-of-revenue ratio compared to the previous year, coupled with higher financing costs due to the expansion of the company's operations and activities.
