The weak performance was attributed to a continued slump in domestic sales and prices due to stiff competition, combined with higher manufacturing cost.
The company also cited additional provisions of SAR 28.5 million taken for expected credit loss on short-term and SAR 30.2 million for long-term account receivables, and foreign currency losses worth SAR 23.2 million on the sale of Egypt investments.
Amiantit’s Q1 net loss widened by more than threefold compared to the previous quarter on slow progress of ongoing projects.
