The telco’s Q4 net profit fell 20 percent YoY to SAR 1.95 billion, and 16 percent when compared to Q3-2015.

 

Full-year consolidated revenue from services grew 11 percent YoY to SAR 50.8 million, Khaled Biyari, CEO of the company, said in a statement.

 

Biyari attributed lower annual net profit to STC’s ongoing investments in an early retirement program and disposal of old assets. FX losses in Turkey and the two-month salary bonus paid in the first quarter of 2015, in compliance with King Salman’s decree, also weighed on the net profit, he added.
