Average Shares 733.33 733.33 -
EPS (Riyals) 4.90 1.60 (67.3 %)

The lower profit was attributed to a decline in revenues as a result of lower product selling prices and sales volumes caused by the periodic maintenance of International Methanol Co. and International Diol Co.

 

This was offset by a drop in raw material prices, as well as Zakat charges and income tax.

 

In addition, the company's profit share from a joint venture and associates decreased.
