Element List Explanation
The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the last year is An increase in net losses for the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the previous year, which is mostly attributed to:

• Recorded accounting profits in the same quarter of the previous year against settlement discounts for some outstanding obligations with some banks, amounting to approximately 20.1 million Saudi riyals, compared by nil in the current quarter.

• Recorded accounting profits in the same quarter of the previous year as a result of reversing some fixed provisions in previous years in the same quarter of the previous year, amounting to 27 million Saudi riyals approximately, compared by nil in the current quarter.

And despite that, the following reasons positively affected the current quarter's net loss:

• Sales continued to recover in the current quarter at a value of 5 million Saudi riyals due to the backlog balance of the carried-over business during the Corona pandemic period and the recovery in the volume of new orders, and the company's efforts to reduce sales costs by 22.6 million Saudi riyals compared to the same quarter of the previous year.

• Reversal of provisions for credit losses in the current quarter amounting to 12.8 million Saudi riyals as a result of the collection and scheduling of some old debts compared by nil in the same quarter of the previous year.

• A decrease in the provision for zakat in the current quarter by 5.1 million Saudi riyals compared by the same quarter of the previous year.

a) Amiantit Company recorded an increase in revenues during the current quarter, amounting to 2.4 million Saudi riyals, at a rate of 2% compared to the previous quarter. The increase is mainly attributed to the backlog balance of the carried-over business during the Corona pandemic period and the recovery in the volume of new orders, and the company’s efforts to reduce sales costs by 6.6 million Saudi riyals compared to the previous quarter.

b) Reversal of provisions for credit losses in the current quarter amounting to 12.8 million Saudi riyals as a result of the collection and scheduling of some old debts compared by nil in the previous quarter.
