Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — Almarai Company reported a 4.38% increase in Q2 2025 profit, reaching SAR 646.87 million, compared to SAR 619.69 million in the same period last year. This increase was driven by higher revenue, improved product mix, and effective cost control.

In a disclosure to Saudi Tadawul on Monday, Almarai stated that the company achieved a 2.6% year-on-year revenue increase, with total revenue reaching approximately SAR 5.3 billion in the second quarter of 2025, compared to SAR 5.15 billion in Q2 2024.
The company attributed this growth to strong performance in food and bakery segments across key markets and sales channels. Improved product mix and lower financing costs also contributed to the rise in net profit.
Quarter-on-quarter, Almarai’s net profit declined by 11.5% compared to SAR 731.19 million recorded in the first quarter of 2025.

For the first half of 2025, Almarai reported a 5% increase in net profit, reaching SAR 1.38 billion, compared to SAR 1.31 billion for the same period in 2024.
The company highlighted that disciplined cost control and revenue growth across core business lines supported its overall financial performance, despite margin pressures in certain areas.

The Saudi Standard’s View: Almarai Delivers Steady Growth Amid Market Pressures
Almarai’s 4.38% profit increase for Q2 2025 reflects the company’s ability to maintain stable growth despite ongoing cost pressures in the food sector. Revenue gains, driven by food and bakery segment performance, show that consumer demand across Saudi Arabia’s key markets remains resilient.
The latest results show that the company focuses on improving product mix and controlling expenses. Although quarter-on-quarter profit declined from Q1 2025, the broader trend points to effective operational management and strategic positioning in the face of fluctuating market conditions.
Almarai’s results also reflect a larger pattern across the Saudi food industry. Companies with diversified product portfolios and strong regional presence continue to perform well, even as input costs and global supply chain pressures persist.
As Saudi Arabia advances food security initiatives and expands domestic production under Vision 2030, Almarai’s steady financial performance reinforces its position as a key player in supporting national food sector growth and long-term market stability.
