| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current year compared to the last year is | The increase in net profit by SAR 860m for 2022 as compared to last year was mainly attributed to the following: - The increase in revenues by SAR 4,424m that was offset by a slight increase in cost of revenues by SAR 824m due to reversal of contingent liability provision in an amount of SAR 1,079m which had a positive impact on cost of revenues, and led to an increase in gross profit by SAR 3,599m. On the other side: - Operating expenses increased by SAR 1,639m, mainly due to the increase in general & administration expenses by SAR 837m, selling and marketing expenses by SAR 524m and depreciation and amortization expenses by SAR 277m. - Total other expenses increased by SAR 1,126m, mainly due to: 1. Recording an impairment provision related to BGSM investment in an amount of SAR (1,259m) during this year as compared to SAR (177m) in 2021, due to decline in fair value as a result of the decline in market conditions and quoted share prices of key underlying investment in the Malaysian market, which led to the re-evaluation of this investment based on these factors. 2. The increase in finance cost by SAR 78m that was offset by the increase in finance income by SAR 225m. 3. The increase in cost of early retirement program by SAR 52m.
- Zakat and income tax expense increased by SAR 43m. |
