Neft Alsharq For Chemical Industry, with a market cap of SAR94.50 million, has shown revenue growth in its Oil Sales Sector but faces challenges with recent net losses of SAR1.91 million for the half year ended June 2025. Despite stable weekly volatility and satisfactory net debt to equity ratio (4.4%), the company struggles with negative operating cash flow and low return on equity (0.9%). The launch of Petro Neft service centers aims to diversify income and improve long-term profitability, yet current profit margins have declined from last year.
