| Element List | Explanation |
|---|---|
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the sales/ revenues during the current year compared to the last year | The Company achieved a 1.3% revenue growth, reaching 5,677.7 million Saudi Riyals, up from 5,602.9 million Saudi Riyals in FY 2023. This is due to:
1. Contribution of Sales from new openings, 2. Positive like-for-like growth from point of sales customers, 3. Data-driven decision from loyalty program, 4. Contribution of Sales from Jumariah Trading Company (JTC) and Future Retail Tech (FTR). However, this was offset by store closures during the year.
In Retail Sales: 1. BinDawood stores saw a slight decline due to Q1 store closure but offset this with new store openings. 2. Danube experienced strong growth due to Opening of seven new stores and higher POS sales.
FTR grew significantly due to: 1. International Applications Company (IACo) benefiting from online sales and the acquisition of a loyalty business and 2. Ykone thrived in the Middle East and gained from acquiring Barcode Influencer Marketing in India.
JTC also contributed to overall revenue growth, performing strongly under the BinDawood Holding (BDH).
Despite challenges, strategic initiatives and acquisitions drove growth across multiple sectors and helped the Company gain market share in FY 2024. |
| The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current year compared to the last year is | Gross profit rose by 4.6% to 1,893.8 million Saudi Riyals, with the margin improving to 33.4% from 32.3% in FY 2024, exceeding the 32–33% guidance. This was driven by:
1. Better product mix. 2. Stronger supplier terms. 3. Operational efficiencies. 4. Contributions from the JTC and FTR.
Operating Expenses (Opex) increased by 4.6% to 1,531.0 million Saudi Riyals, with the Opex-to-sales ratio rising slightly to 26.97% from 26.13% Year on Year. Tighter controls helped limit the increase, despite investments in 1. Talent. 2. New stores. 3. Acquisition-related costs.
Net profit grew by 1.9%, reaching 280.2 million Saudi Riyals, driven by: 1. Higher gross margins. 2. Partially offset by the increase in Opex due to investments in human capital and business expansion. |
