Additionally, the cost of sales decreased due to lower quantities sold, while marketing expenses increased due to higher shipping costs.

 

The company also reported higher general and administrative expenses, increased financing expenses, and a rise in other income due to adopting the effective interest rate as defined in the international financial reporting standards (IFRs) on loans from the Saudi Industrial Development Fund (SIDF).
