Riyadh – Mubasher: The net profits of Umm Al Qura Cement Company advanced by 70.73% yearly in the second quarter (Q2) ended 30 June 2020 to stand at SAR 20.97 million when compared to SAR 12.29 million in Q2-19.
This jump is ascribed to a rise in sales value and volume and an improvement in average selling prices during the April-June period of the year, according to a disclosure to the Saudi bourse on Tuesday.
The company's general and administrative expenses slid, whereas other income rose despite the increase in Zakat expenses.
