Saudi Alujain’s Q1 profit down as finance costs weigh on performance

Saudi Alujain’s Q1 profit down as finance costs weigh on performance

RIYADH: Alujain Holding Corp. has recorded a profit decline of 7.5 percent as rising costs weighed on its performance during the first quarter of 2022.

The Saudi-listed investment firm, involved in Kingdom’s major petrochemical and mining projects, made SR55.8 million ($14.9 million) in profit, according to a bourse filing.

Alujain attributed the profit drop from SR60.3 million in the same period a year ago to an increase in finance costs.
