Element List	Explanation
Increase (Decrease) in Net Profit for Current Quarter Compared to the Same Quarter of the Previous Year is Attributed to	The company Achieved a net profit of SR 27.2m vs. SR 30.9m for the SPLY.

Furthermore, the net profit has been negatively affected by SR 9.2m as a result of the Increase in operating expenses caused by commencing the operations of United Company for Financial Services (a fully owned subsidiary), which started its operations by end of Q2 2019 after securing SAMA's approval. Finally, Q3 2019 net profit has a none recurring income worth of SR 4.5m resulting from accruing for the expected gains on the settlement for Jeddah store fire incident (the final financial impact of the fire incident of Jeddah store will be announced upon collection of full amount of insurance claim)
