Saudi Telecom Co. (STC), the kingdom’s largest mobile operator, said its net profit declined 5 percent year-on-year (YoY) in the first quarter of this year to SAR 2.37 billion on higher operating costs and an increase in Zakat provisions.

 

The telco's profit for Q1, however, rose 22 percent when compared to the previous quarter. The improvement over the period was due to lower operating expenses and an increase in other income, including SAR 28 million worth of gains made from investments.
