Losses deepened to KWD 8.47 million ($28.1 million) in H1 this year from KWD 1.87 million ($6.2 million) in the corresponding period in 2016, according to a bourse statement on Thursday.

The increase in losses is attributed to lower profit margin of the company’s sales to the health ministry as well as calculating some provisions.
