EPS (Riyals) 6.72 6.86 2.1 %

The profit rise was fueled by a 10.8% year-on-year (YoY) hike in sales, mainly due to higher sales volumes and market share across all segments.

 

The gross profit margin grew to 38.8% in the current period, from 33.5% a year earlier, due to lower raw material costs, besides a favorable product and category mix and cost efficiency at factories.

 

General and administrative expenses remained marginally lower than last year as a result of the oversight and controls on expenditure.

 

The Q3 2023/24 net earnings leapt 33% YoY to SAR 104.6 million, as dairy and foodstuff sales grew by 4.4% YoY on focused distribution and sound marketing investments. The frozen and ambient products categories rose by 14.9% and 2.8% YoY during the same period.

 

The company also posted a healthy gross margin of 37.5% in Q3 2023/24 versus 32.4% last year. General and administrative expenses also remained flat YoY at 4.5% during the same period.

 

On a sequential basis, Q3 2023/24 net profit dropped 8.6% from SAR 114.47 million.
