Element ListExplanation
The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current quarter compared to the same quarter of the last year is The increase in net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent for the third quarter of 2022 compared to corresponding quarter of 2021 is mainly due to:

• Higher development cost, provision and write offs during corresponding quarter of 2021;

• Lower impairment loss and other expenses during the current quarter mainly due to share-based payment expense that was recognised in the corresponding quarter of 2021 following successful IPO;

• Increase in other income mainly due to gain on change in fair value of derivatives;

• These were partly offset by an increase in deferred tax charge mainly on account of devaluation of the Moroccan Dirham against the USD; higher financial charges; and lower revenues and share in net results of equity accounted investees, due to outages in certain plants.

The reason of the increase (decrease) in the net profit during the current quarter compared to the previous quarter of the current year is The decrease in net profit attributable to equity holders of the parent for the third quarter of 2022 compared to second quarter of 2022 is mainly due to:

• Higher financial charges; and lower share in net results from equity accounted investees due to outages in certain plants;

• These were partly offset by higher other operating income and other income complemented by improved gross profit and lower development cost, provisions and write offs.

• Lower impairment loss and other expenses during the current period mainly due to share based payment expense that was recognised in the corresponding period of 2021 following successful IPO;

• Increase in other operating income and other income mainly due to higher interest income and a gain on change in fair value of derivatives;

• These were partly offset by an increase in deferred tax charge on mainly account of devaluation of the Moroccan Dirham against the USD; and lower revenues due to outages in certain plants.
