Through this step, the company aims to optimize its asset portfolio, reduce losses, and increase return on capital to enhance sustainable profitability and long-term growth. The divested businesses recorded operating losses of approximately 1.9 billion riyals in 2025 and 648 million riyals in the first half of 2026.
