The surge in profits was primarily driven by higher sales revenue, resulting from increased total sales value and volumes, as well as other revenue streams.

Additionally, SCC benefited from a higher gain on the sale of investments related to a subsidiary and a decrease in Zakat expenses, despite facing higher selling, distribution, general, and administrative expenses.

However, in the third quarter of 2023, SCC experienced a 15.3 percent year-on-year drop in earnings, with Q3 net profit falling to SAR 68.3 million from SAR 80.6 million in Q3 2022.
