Average Shares 732.56 732.56 -
EPS (Riyals) 0.57 1.21 110.4 %

The rise was driven by lower cost of development, provisions, and write-offs during the current period.

 

Provisions for impairment and other expenses witnessed a decline during the current period mainly due to the share-based payment expenses that were recognized in the corresponding period of 2021 following the IPO.

 

In addition, operating income and other income grew as a result of higher interest income and fair value gains on derivatives.

 

This came though there was an increase in deferred tax fees on Moroccan dirham depreciation against US dollar, as well as a retreat in revenue on unscheduled outages in several stations.
