Almarai reported third-quarter revenue of SAR 6.19 billion for July through September in results released on 4 October 2026. The company said this was 11% above SAR 5.55 billion in the same quarter of 2025. Revenue for January through September reached SAR 18.22 billion, compared with SAR 16.61 billion a year earlier; Almarai reported a 10% increase for that nine-month period. The quarterly and nine-month totals cover different windows and should not be treated as interchangeable. The figures and growth rates are the rounded amounts reported by the company.

Net profit in Q3 was SAR 617.8 million, compared with SAR 613.2 million in the third quarter of 2025. Almarai reported a 1% year-on-year increase. Net profit for the first nine months was SAR 1.99 billion, which the company described as broadly stable against the same period in 2025. “Broadly stable” is not an exact zero-growth rate, and the release gives no more precise nine-month change. It also says an improved revenue mix was largely offset by higher dairy-feed shipping costs and higher distribution costs driven by elevated energy expenses.

Almarai described revenue growth as broad-based across markets, product categories and sales channels. It said the quarter benefited from higher poultry volumes after recent capacity expansion, growth in dairy sales in Egypt and a contribution from the water-business acquisition. The release does not assign a separate revenue or volume amount to each factor. It also does not state the acquired water business’s share of revenue or provide a new poultry-capacity figure, so the contribution of any one item cannot be calculated from the announcement.

By category, the company said dairy and juice benefited from sustained demand and an improved revenue mix, while bakery performance improved with support from sales mix, product development and cost management. Protein contributed less net profit than in Q3 2025, which Almarai linked to poultry-market supply conditions, higher distribution costs related to energy and ramp-up costs. The company also cited higher feed-shipping costs as a pressure on profit. The release provides no category-level profit totals or percentage changes in these individual cost lines, so the comments remain qualitative explanations rather than quantified effects.

Almarai’s management said investments in recent years were increasingly contributing to growth and supporting its ability to serve consumers across its markets. The company also said it remained focused on execution and profitable growth. These are management’s views, not an independent forecast or a promise about future results. The published figures show that revenue increased in Q3 while net profit grew only slightly, and that nine-month net profit remained broadly stable.
