| 08 Nov 2026

The Company For Cooperative Insurance (Tawuniya), among Saudi Arabia's top three insurers, has reported net profit before zakat of SAR1,020.6m for the first nine months of this year, showing a marginal increase of 1.42% over the corresponding period in 2025.

This represented a significant improvement from the 14.42% year-on-year decline recorded for the first half of this year, said Tawuniya in a statement lodged with the stock exchange.

The company reported net profit after zakat attributable to shareholders of SAR911.6m for the January-September 2026 period, compared to SAR902.4m in the corresponding period last year, an increase of 1.02%.

Other highlights of Tawuniya’s nine-month (9M2026) financial performance include:

  • Insurance revenue reached SAR18,502m in 9M2026, compared to SAR15,753m in 9M2025, an increase of 17.45% driven by the growth in the company's health and motor sector. Health GWP increased by 14.69%, while motor rose by 32.46%.

  • Gross Written Premium (GWP) amounted to SAR19,966m, a year-on-year increase of 16.22%.

  • Insurance service result (before reinsurance) for 9M2026 amounted to a loss of SAR1,952m compared with SAR2,7340m in 9M2025, plunging by 171.24%. This was due to elevated insurance service expenses in the P&C sector.

  • After reinsurance, the net insurance service result decreased by 3.74% to SAR1,035m in 9M2026, significantly narrowing the year-on-year decline from 14.8% witnessed in 1H2026 driven by stronger third-quarter performance.

  • Net investment income increased by 17.24% to SAR649.5m in 9M2026, compared to SAR554m in the same period of last year. In addition, the investment portfolio grew by 11.37% to SAR13,846m as at 30 September 2026, compared to SAR12,432m 12 months previously.
