On the announcement front, Aldrees Petroleum and Transport Services Co. released its interim financial results for the three-month period ending March 31. According to a Tadawul statement, the firm recorded a net profit of SR110 million during the first three months of the year, up 8.9 percent from the same period last year.
The rise in net profit is primarily linked to higher sales from the petrol and transport divisions, increased income from bank deposits and other income, and higher returns from investments in the joint venture project and sukuk.
This was partially offset by higher marketing and selling expenses, general and administrative expenses, financing costs, and zakat expenses.
Aldrees Petroleum and Transport Services Co. ended the session at SR124.60, down 1.92 percent.
Saudi National Bank has announced its interim financial results for the first three months of 2026. A bourse filing revealed that the firm recorded a net profit attributable to shareholders of SR6.42 billion during the first three months of the year, reflecting a 6.66 percent increase compared to the corresponding period a year earlier.
This jump in net profit is mainly due to higher total operating income along with lower total operating expenses.
SNB ended the session at SR41.94, down 2.40 percent.
