Element ListExplanation
The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the last year is The decrease in profits before Zakat and Income Tax for the quarter of SR 109,446K compared with same quarter the previous year was due to the following main reasons:

• Decrease in net underwriting results of SR 159,220K compared with the same quarter of the previous year, a decrease of 26.1%. This was driven by the increase in the net claims incurred by SR 249,864K compared with the same quarter of the previous year, an increase of 13.9%, as a result of the rebound in deferred claims from the abnormal low levels witnessed during the COVID-19 lockdown period of the previous year. Net underwriting results were also negatively impacted by the drop in net earned premiums of SR 127,473K compared with the same quarter of the previous year, a decrease of 4.7%. These movements were partially offset by the drop in policy acquisition costs expensed of SR 218,117K compared with the same quarter of the previous year, a decrease of 76.4%. The Premium Deficiency Reserve (PDR), which was established in 2020, required the write-off of certain deferred acquisition costs.
