The 52-week range sets the frame

Jarir traded within a 52-week range of SAR 12.26 to SAR 18.38 as of October 15, 2026. The latest close was SAR 1.41 below the yearly high, equivalent to 7.67 percent, while it stood SAR 4.71 above the low, or 38.42 percent.

That placement matters because the daily decline did not erase the broader distance from the 52-week low, while the valuation ratio remains the more relevant measure for comparing the company with other Saudi retailers.
