The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current year compared to the last year is Net profit of SAR 217 million for FY 2023 compared to a net profit of SAR 54 million for FY 2022 is mainly due to the following reasons:

d) Zakat and tax expense decreased to SAR 7 million in FY 2023 from SAR 10 million in FY 2022, due to consolidating the post-acquisition results of GPC which include deferred tax reversal in the period.

The above listed positive changes were partially offset by an increase in finance charges to SAR 35 million in FY 2023 from SAR 14 million in FY 2022 due to consolidating the post-acquisition results of GPC, an increase in administrative expenses to SAR 38 million in FY 2023 from SAR 23 million in FY 2022 mainly due to consolidating the post-acquisition results of GPC, an increase in selling, marketing and distribution expenses to SAR 29 million in FY 2023 from SAR 17 million in FY 2022 mainly due to consolidating the post-acquisition results of GPC, the recording of a loss on de-recognition of previously held equity interest in an associate amounting to SAR 10 million in FY 2023 and a decrease in the share of profit in an associate to SAR 3 million in FY 2023 from SAR 9 million in FY 2022.
