EPS (Riyals) 1.71 0.79 (53.6 %)

The profit drop is mainly attributed to a year-on-year increase in total costs of revenues as the company’s contracts mainly involve providing human resources with specialized skills, which led to an increase in direct costs for projects.

 

This was despite the increase in revenues due to signing and entry into force of new contracts, in addition to the ongoing contracts from previous periods.
