Net profit declined 2.5 percent to SAR 27.82 million in the second quarter, mainly due to a decline in sales of explosives, which have higher profit margins, as well as an increase in financial charges. 

 

On a sequential basis, net income halved from SAR 56.42 million the previous quarter on account of lower sales due to the stoppage in production of explosives during Ramadan and Eid Al-Fitr. The company also cited higher operating expenses and financial charges.
