What changed in the third quarter?

The earnings release contained a mixed operating picture. Quarterly operating profit fell 3.3 percent to SAR 1.004 billion from SAR 1.038 billion in the comparable quarter, even as shareholder net profit increased from SAR 916 million to SAR 925 million.

For the first nine months of 2026, net profit rose 8 percent to SAR 2.7 billion from SAR 2.5 billion. Earnings per share increased to SAR 3.53 from SAR 3.27, giving the year-to-date result a stronger profile than the quarterly operating line.

What does the profit change mean?

The gap between higher net profit and lower operating profit makes cost and non-operating items important to the next update. Mobily operates mobile wireless and fiber networks in Saudi Arabia and also provides information technology, support and telecommunications services, so the quarterly operating result remains a central measure of execution.

The reported nine-month figures also give investors a clearer comparison point than the quarterly profit alone. The company generated SAR 2.7 billion in net profit through September 30, 2026, while earnings per share reached SAR 3.53 for the same period.
