| Element List | Explanation |
|---|---|
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current year compared to the last year is | The increase in profits before Zakat and Income Tax for the year of SR 111,015K compared with the previous year was due to the following main reasons: • Increase in underwriting results of SR 225,368K compared with last year, an increase of 19.5%. Net earned premiums increased by SR 1,363,191K in the current year compared with the last year, an increase of 14.6%, while net claims incurred increased by only SR 970,631K compared with last year, an increase of 12.5%. This was due to the significant decline in demand for healthcare services during the Covid-19 lockdown period earlier in the year. • Decrease in the provision for doubtful receivables of SR 3,137K compared to last year, a decrease of 9.8%, primarily driven by the record collection performance achieved in 2020. These favorable movements were partially offset with the below variances: • An increase in deferred acquisition costs expensed during the year reaching SR 630,734K compared with last year, an increase of 36.1%, which was related to the Premium Deficiency Reserves (PDR) recognized during the year. A PDR was established to account for the expected surge in claims post Covid-19 lockdown, as well as to partially reflect the cost impact of the recently announced enforcement of Article 11 of the Cooperative Health Insurance Law, in which insurance companies are required to include all accredited government healthcare providers in their approved networks, while also complying with the mandated financial compensation structure. The enforcement of Article 11 is expected to have a material impact on future medical claims considering the mandated prices and protocols regulating the relationship between government health facilities and insurance companies. Given the many uncertainties surrounding the actual rollout and application of Article 11, management will monitor the situation closely, while reassessing and updating its estimates and judgments on a regular basis.
• Other operating expenses also increased by 15.2% compared with last year, reaching SR 692,016K, while Investment and other income decreased by 5.1%, reaching SR 240,776K in the current year. • Policyholders’ share of insurance operations’ surplus increased to reach SR 80,141K in the current year versus SR 66,834K in last year, an increase of 19.9%. • Gross Written Premiums (GWP) increased by SR 36,485K in the current year compared with last year, an increase of 0.4%. |
