These results achieved in spite of: 1- Increase in gross profit resulted from higher sales volume in FIPCO & FPC, and improved profit margin in FPC, while the margin is lower in FIPCO as a result of the sudden and ascending increase in the main raw materials prices, in addition to the increase in production costs due to increase in the minimum wage for Saudis, as the number of workers in the company and its subsidiaries is 1000, including 92 Saudis and 132 Saudi women. 2- General and administrative expenses are lower, as a result of increased production capacity in FPC. |

These results achieved in spite of: 1- Decrease in banking charges as a result of the governmental initiatives (represented by SAMA) in order to minimize the impact of the coronavirus outbreak (Covid-19), particularly the initiative of deferred payment program related to postpone the due payment with no interest. 2- Realized gains of investments at fair value through profit or loss. |
