Yanbu Cement reports lower 2Q26 profit on weaker sales volumes

Yanbu Cement reported 2Q2026 sales of SAR233.3m (US$62.2m) and a net profit of SAR31.3m (US$8.3m).

The Saudi company said results were affected by lower domestic and export sales volumes, together with reduced export sales revenue. However, higher selling prices in both the domestic and export markets helped to partially offset the decline in volumes.

Yanbu Cement also benefited from lower selling and administrative expenses and reduced finance costs during the quarter.
